The Fantasy Bus Magical Beast Taming Tour Chapter 309: Using the Tricks of Others

"Fairy Ni, you are too kind to me. It is a great blessing for me to meet such a beautiful fairy. Meeting her today is a blessing from heaven. How can I expect to see her again?" Shi Yan pretended to admire her and praised her.

"Hmph, flattery." Ni Hong's face turned slightly red, but she was very pleased with Shi Yan's praise.

"Haha, it's human nature that a gentleman would love a beautiful lady. I hope Fairy Ni can understand." Mo Zihao knew that Ni Hong was Liu Shang's man. If Shi Yan teased her like this and made Fairy Ni unhappy, wouldn't that be bad? He quickly came out to plead for Shi Yan and asked for forgiveness.

Ni Hong didn't look at him, but just kept looking at Shi Yan. She always felt that she had seen this Xu Yan somewhere before, and there was a familiar aura emanating from him.

"I heard that Yue Shuangxuan is a top chess player. If you can beat him, then your chess skills must be better than his." Ni Hong smiled and said, "To be honest, I just happened to be fascinated by war chess a few days ago. If you have some free time, I hope that Guest Xu can give you some pointers."

"You're welcome. If you need anything, just let me know." After saying that, Shi Yan put on an infatuated expression, "I wouldn't trade it for a chance to see Fairy Ni again, even if I was given a position as a god."

"You're such a chatterbox!" Ni Hong chuckled. "Master Mo, I don't know if your guest chess player is good at chess, but he's really good at talking."

Mo Tianbo smiled awkwardly, "Xu Keqing is a man of great talent and unruly. Please forgive me, Fairy Ni."

Ni Hong looked at Mo Tianbo strangely, "He didn't offend me, why should I forgive him? Does the Mo family think that I am too narrow-minded to even take such a joke?"

"Haha, Fairy Ni is joking." Mo Tianbo smiled, "Fairy Ni is very open-minded, otherwise the envoy would not be obsessed with Fairy Ni."

Shi Yan felt a chill. He didn't expect that Mo Tianbo was so good at flattering.

Ni Hong suddenly felt elated.

"Ahem, let's discuss Shi Yan's matter first. The task assigned by the envoy must not be delayed." Bai Wanzhong said when he saw that the topic was getting further and further away.

"Yes, yes, look at me." Mo Tianbo smiled awkwardly, "Zihao, where were you talking about?"

Mo Zihao said: "We talked about this. Since Shi Yan has a considerable force, where is the best place for him to hide?"

"Yes, it's here." Mo Tianbo nodded and asked, "Where do you think he will hide?"

"I think that since there is such a large force, it is not easy to hide it, especially in a place with a large population. It is not feasible."

"I think the larger the population, the easier it is to hide." Bai Wanzhong disagreed with Mo Zihao's statement, "The more complex the population, the less likely it is to be discovered. This is what it means to hide in the city."

"That's wrong." Mo Zihao said, "If you want to hide, the more people there are, the better. However, if there is a large force as a prerequisite, then the saying of hiding in the city will not work. A large number of strangers suddenly appear in a place, which is very conspicuous. How can you hide? Besides, there are many counted people in Mingjingyu City. If there are suddenly a lot of people in the city, it will attract the attention of the local city lord, and then investigate the details."

"Indeed, Zihao's analysis makes sense." Mo Tianbo nodded, "This shows that large and medium-sized towns can be ruled out."

"That's right." Mo Zihao said, "So I think the best place for Shi Yan to hide is between the small town and the village. Although the small town and the village are small, they are very close to each other. It is very easy to break them up and integrate them into the city. And it is not suitable to hide near the big city, so I guess they must be at the junction of various places!"

After listening to Mo Zihao's analysis, Shi Yan was immediately ashamed. To be honest, when he came to Mingjing Domain, Shi Yan did have the idea of ​​breaking up into small towns and villages. If Qianzu hadn't said that there were energy crystals in the wilderness, he might have been caught by them.

"Of course, this is just my guess. Maybe they are hiding somewhere else." Mo Zihao said.

"Haha, Zihao, you've narrowed the search area so much, which is already amazing. After all, we know nothing about Shi Yan right now." Mo Tianbo looked at Ni Hong and said, "Fairy Ni, I heard that you and Shi Yan have had some contact before. Do you think Shi Yan is hiding here?"

"I don't think so." Ni Hong said, "Shi Yan is a shameless and despicable person. He is very cunning. We have issued a warrant for his arrest throughout the Zimu Liuhua Region, but we couldn't find his hiding place, let alone now when we are in such a hurry."

Shi Yan was slightly angry. Am I despicable and shameless? Am I cunning? I don't know who is cheating and deceiving people, and even killing innocent people, involving so many innocent people.

Bai Wanzhong frowned, a little worried, "So, doesn't that mean we have to wait until he jumps out himself?"

"Qing Keqing Xu, do you have any ideas?" Ni Hong suddenly looked at Shi Yan and asked with a smile.

Shi Yan was cursing Ni Hong in his heart when he was suddenly called by Ni Hong. His heart skipped a beat and he thought she had discovered his little move. He was relieved when he heard it clearly. To be honest, this undercover work of sneaking into the enemy camp was not what he was good at.

He hesitated for a moment, and then said, "Since Shi Yan is such a despicable, shameless and cunning person as Fairy Ni said, he would definitely consider the aspects we discussed today before hiding. I think everyone here would do the same if they wanted to hide."

Many of the Mohists sitting below were dissatisfied with Shi Yan's statement. What did it mean that if you want to hide, you must do the same? Are we all despicable, shameless and cunning people?

Especially some elders who were of high status and felt that they had made great contributions after helping Mo Tianbo seize power, they looked coldly at Shi Yan.

On the other hand, Bai Wanzhong, Mo Tianbo, Ni Hong and Mo Zihao, the four of them fell into deep thought after hearing Shi Yan's words.

Bai Wanzhong nodded first, "Yes, if I want to hide, I will first consider how someone will find me! Then, based on the loopholes, I will look for a hiding place."

Shi Yan said: "Yes, Shi Yan must have thought so. In this case, the area between the small city and the village may not be safe."

Mo Zihao thought it made sense. "Xu Keqing is right. I miscalculated."

Shi Yan quickly said: "This is not your problem, but we have too few conditions in our hands. If it weren't for Fairy Ni's previous evaluation of Shi Yan, perhaps I would not have guessed this."

Everyone nodded.

Mo Tianbo frowned, "But in this case, aren't we back to square one?"

Large and medium-sized cities are ruled out, small towns and villages are ruled out, so where else can Mingjing Domain hide?

"Is there a map of Mingjing Domain?" Shi Yanxiang asked Mo Zihao.

"Yes." Mo Zihao nodded and ordered his servants, "Hurry and get the most detailed map."

In just a quarter of an hour, the map was brought. Mo Zihao spread the map on the wall and then unfolded it. Suddenly, a detailed topographic map of the Mingjing area appeared in front of Shi Yan.

Shi Yan looked at the map of Mingjing Domain and was speechless for a long time. This map was too detailed, covering all places in Mingjing Domain, and using a three-layer three-dimensional structure to outline the underground, ground and air of Mingjing Domain in detail. Shi Yan tried hard to record it in his mind. It was not complete, but he was able to record 70% to 80% of the important places.

Seeing that Bai Wanzhong didn't seem surprised, it seemed that every major sect would have such a map as a strategic map.

Shi Yan cleared his throat, walked forward and said, "The places that were previously eliminated are mostly concentrated in the west of Mingjing Domain. You see, with Tiesen City as the center, radiating outward are thirteen large cities, seventy-two medium cities, three hundred and fifty-six small cities, and more than three thousand villages, all in this direction." Everyone looked at the map and nodded.

Shi Yan asked Ni Hong, "Excuse me, where did Fairy Ni's men lose contact?"

Ni Hong stepped forward and pointed out a place. This place was exactly the boundary of the radiation circle just pointed out. There was the sea on the west, mountains on the east, the radiation circle at the back, and the wilderness in front.

Shi Yan looked at Mo Tianbo and asked, "Has there been any unusual situation around here recently? For example, a sect sending out large-scale troops or something like that."

Mo Tianbo looked at the hall and shouted, "Elder Mo Yu, check it for me quickly!"

The Mohist School is the actual controller of the Mingjing Domain. All major events of the various sects in the Mingjing Domain will be uploaded layer by layer to the Mohist School's data hall, in order to achieve the goal of controlling all the sects in the Mingjing Domain.

After about an incense stick of time, Elder Mo Yu finally ran back and said, "Reporting to the Patriarch, there really is a problem."

Everyone looked over curiously. "During this period of time, the Tianxing Sect here and the Lushan Sect once had a war. The target was a mine outside the border of the Great Wilderness, but it was destroyed by a third party who suddenly came from nowhere."

When everyone heard this, they were all shocked and their eyes towards Shi Yandao became different.

"According to the data, the third party did not occupy the mining area. They just kidnapped the miners there and then disappeared."

"A few days later, the Tianxing Sect sent a team of more than a hundred people into the Great Wilderness, but except for a man named Yin Gui, the rest of them never came back."

Everyone was stunned when they heard this, and then they all looked towards the place on the map that was marked as dangerous and highlighted in red, the Great Wilderness!

"They must be hiding in the wilderness!" Shi Yan said firmly!

"Impossible! The Great Wilderness is a cursed land. How dare he go in!" an elder shouted.

Shi Yan looked coldly at the troublemaker elder. He had finally managed to get everyone's attention on the Great Wilderness. How could he let an incompetent old man ruin it? Although his troops were indeed in the Great Wilderness.

"Then I want to ask Fairy Ni, do you know that the Great Wilderness is a cursed place?"

Ni Hong frowned, "I just found out about this recently."

Shi Yan smiled and said, "Even Fairy Ni only found out recently. So I want to ask, how could a low-level cultivator from another realm know that the Great Wilderness is a cursed land?"

Shi Yan did not wait for the elder to speak, and quickly turned to Mo Tianbo respectfully, "I think we should secretly gather the army immediately and march to the surrounding areas of the Great Wilderness to wait for the opportunity!"
