Chapter 169 In the Mountains
From the time they learned about the location of the hiding place to the time everyone from the Holy Extreme Sect gathered and surrounded the valley where Gu Hanlin was hiding, it took most of the day.
In this process,
Fierce battles broke out from time to time.
Some people were accidentally killed by Gu Hanlin's remnants and died on the spot before they could even resist.
There were also people who were careful and cautious. They not only saved their teammates, but also killed the attacking enemies. They performed very well.
Of course, there are also people who are extremely lucky. Not only do they not encounter any danger along the way, but they are also very lucky to find some treasures such as thousand-year-old elixirs when passing by the corners of the mountains.
Everyone's experience is different.
But the mission of this trip and the experience of being on tenterhooks amid numerous dangers will undoubtedly leave a deep impression on them.
It seems that the effect of this training trip was quite good.
Outside the hidden valley, Yang Qingyun looked down.
Looking at the teams with a capable and murderous aura that had surrounded the entire secret valley, he couldn't help but secretly said in his heart.
After this kind of training, these new outer disciples have more or less developed some ability and murderous aura.
at the same time,
"Gu Hanlin! Now that the nobles from the upper clan have arrived, why don't you traitors surrender quickly!"
Not far away in the sky,
Feng Zhenghao, the head of the Feng family, spoke righteously. His loud voice was like the roar of thunder, echoing throughout the valley and filling every corner of the surrounding void.
That voice also attracted Yang Qingyun's attention.
The valley basin below was only the size of a dozen football fields. Huge and lush trees rose and fell one after another on the scattered valley bottom basins. Their lush branches and leaves blocked the view. Through the gaps between the leaves and branches, one could barely see the tip of the iceberg of the simply built camp below! At this time, all around the valley were steep peaks in all directions.
The exposed rocks are visible to the naked eye. After countless years of weathering, cracks have appeared on the rocks. The broken rocks are crumbling and falling down!
On the steep rock walls, you can occasionally see one or two trees growing out of the cracks in the rocks.
Under this kind of terrain, as long as the entrances and exits and the surrounding low-lying areas are blocked, the people in the valley will be trapped like turtles in a jar.
But at the same time, this is also a place that is easy to defend but difficult to attack.
If you attack by force,
Even if they have the upper hand in terms of manpower, they will probably still suffer a big loss.
"Junior Brother Yang, what should we do?"
Soon, the four of them gathered together to discuss how to deal with the situation.
"I don't have any ideas. I can only say let's wait and see. Brother Gu, Brother Wu, what about you?"
"See if we can find a flaw, and then attack with force!"
“This is fine.”
"Okay, I have no objection."
About half an hour later,
The situation remains at a stalemate.
Feng Zhenghao's attempt to persuade them to surrender did not work.
The remnants of Gu Hanlin's rebel army trapped in the valley still held their ground. Even when Feng Zhenghao was almost talking until his mouth was dry, there was still no response from the other side.
No one wavered.
He looked determined to fight to the bitter end.
"If that's the case, then we can only attack by force!"
Until this time,
I also know that those people inside will not surrender.
They looked at each other and nodded.
Decided to attack forcefully.
suddenly,
Du Wenhe saw that Yang Qingyun seemed a little uneasy and dazed.
"What's wrong, Junior Brother Yang, did you find anything?"
"Oh, nothing, I just thought of something, it has nothing to do with the battle situation, let's start the attack!"
"I wonder what Junior Brother Yang has thought of. Why don't you tell me what you have thought of now?"
"Nothing, I'm just a little curious. After all, even at this point where he's at the end of his rope, there are still people willing to die for him. I wonder what kind of person Gu Hanlin is."
Yang Qingyun was silent for a moment.
He looked at the remnants of Gu Hanlin who were hiding behind the dense ancient trees in the valley below, ready to fight to the death, with a look of confusion in his eyes.
The other three were also silent for a while.
Finally, it was Du Wenhe who broke the silence:
"These people never left and followed us until death. They can be considered loyal and righteous. If we want to blame someone, we can only blame them for following the wrong person and colluding with the sect's enemies, thus killing people in vain."
Wu Qingzhi and Gu Yang nodded in agreement.
"Forget it, never mind, let's end this quickly! Just beat them to death with respect!"
Yang Qingyun cheered up.
He let out a long breath and said with emotion.
"Yes, that's right!"
Several people responded in agreement.
Then the four of them called Feng Zhenghao, who was also in the Innate Realm, and began to discuss the tactics of the strong attack.
After a while, a rough plan was formed.
The detailed arrangements are a bit lengthy, but the core point of the plan is to use the majority to bully the minority and the strong to oppress the weak.
The four of them each led a group of newly promoted outer disciples to charge forward, using their innate strength to tear open the other side's defenses and rush in directly! Feng Zhenghao and his men were responsible for the rear, blocking any escapees that slipped through the net.
Anyway, according to the intelligence,
Among Gu Hanlin's group of defeated soldiers, he was the only warrior in the innate realm.
The four innate beings attacked at the same time.
It's basically impossible to resist.
soon,
Several people left with the plan they had discussed and prepared.
The same goes for Yang Qingyun.
but,
At this time, Yang Qingyun frowned slightly, as if worried about something.
He actually didn't answer all of Du Wenhe's questions earlier.
In fact, while he was curious about Gu Hanlin's subordinates who were fighting stubbornly, loyally, and fearlessly, he also had a vague feeling that something was wrong in his heart.
Along the way, there seems to be something wrong with these enemies!
Not to mention that morale was so low, no one fled or surrendered, which made their loyalty seem incomprehensible.
Now it is so easy to trap Gu Hanlin here.
It made Yang Qingyun feel unrealistic! If he were in their shoes , he would have avoided the sharp edge the moment he saw it.
But now it seems that the other party did not escape.
But use that hidden valley as your stronghold to hold on?
What was going on? Yang Qingyun was puzzled.
At this time,
Yang Qingyun suddenly thought of another thing.
Gu Hanlin was the former Southwest Supervisor of the Six Gates.
So,
What about the people from the imperial court? Even if the King of Chu didn't care, wouldn't the Six Gates have sent a few people over? Could it be that they would just leave the matter to the Holy Extreme Sect and not care about anything? "That's weird!"
There are obviously too many weird things about this mission .
Yang Qingyun shook his head and put all the thoughts behind him.
never mind,
Don't worry about it, just do it! What a mess, it's none of his business.
Finish this task quickly, and go back to study and practice the Great Zhoutian Yin-Yang Gong!
During this period,
I have also gained new insights, and it is time to go back and practice in seclusion!
Thinking of this, Yang Qingyun felt relieved.
Yang Qingyun's pace quickened.
soon,
The teams are organized.
As the agreed signal came on,
storm,
here we go!
