Chapter 686 Disappearance
The savages that appeared outside Longcheng were not a small group, but hundreds of them.
They ambushed the scouts patrolling outside the city and wiped out the entire twelve-man scout team.
Although the defenders on the city wall discovered the battle outside the city, the battle was over by the time the cavalry inside the city rushed out.
All twelve men died in battle!
The battle lasted less than half a quarter of an hour from the outbreak to the end.
When the cavalry arrived in the city, they only managed to save the bodies of all the scouts, preventing them from being taken away by the savages and becoming their food.
The fighting power of the savages once again shocked everyone in the city.
The scouts of Longcheng are all the elite among the elite. Whether it is observation ability, combat reaction ability, or fighting will, they are all at the top level.
Although the number of savages far exceeded that of the scout team, the fact that the twelve people were attacked without any preparation showed how powerful the savages' hiding ability was.
In the cold snow, these savages can actually hide in the snow. This physical fitness is beyond the reach of others.
The deputy general who stayed in Longcheng immediately sent someone to Pingman City to inform Mr. Xu of the news.
Naturally, Old Master Xu had no time to chat with Boss Xu, but hurriedly led his men back to Longcheng to deal with the incoming savage crisis.
However, when Mr. Xu returned to Longcheng, he sent a large number of people to search for traces of wild men in the wild every day, but found nothing.
The hundreds of savages who appeared outside Dragon City before you seemed to have disappeared out of thin air.
At this time of year, the wind is strong and the snow is heavy.
The traces left by the savages on the snow were easily covered by the wind and snow, which greatly affected Mr. Xu's search work.
In this way, half a month passed, and Mr. Xu felt more and more that something was wrong.
He had already implemented a policy of fortifying the city and clearing the wilds in Longxi Prefecture. Even if the savages had strong survival abilities in the wild, there was no reason for them to survive under such circumstances.
"My Lord, could it be that those wildlings have already bypassed Dragon City and headed south?"
Tuoba Aofeng stood beside Old Man Xu and whispered, "How about I take some people to the south to look for it?"
Since he had chosen to surrender and swore a solemn oath, Tuoba Aofeng knew that he and the Northern Barbarians could only demonstrate their value to the best of their ability.
This time they went out of the city to look for the savages. If they couldn't find any, it would be fine. If they found any, it would certainly be a merit. But finding the savages also meant that they would have to have a brutal fight with them.
I don’t know how many of my tribesmen may have died at the hands of the savages.
But Tuoba Aofeng had no choice but to volunteer.
“No rush!”
Mr. Xu waved his hand.
He had considered the possibility that the barbarians might bypass the city, so he had issued orders early in the morning. Wherever they spotted any trace of the barbarians, they were to light signal fires.
But so far, there are no signals of war anywhere.
This means that the savages are probably still hiding somewhere.
These savages are like wild beasts, and the patience of wild beasts before hunting is beyond anyone's imagination.
A good hunter who wants to hunt any prey must have enough patience.
Coincidentally, Mr. Xu is an excellent hunter, and among excellent hunters, he is among the top ones.
So, isn’t it just a matter of patience?
Mr. Xu was not afraid at all.
…
At the pass leading from Xiangyi Prefecture to Longxi Prefecture, Xu Laoer led 5,000 cavalrymen and finally arrived here after hurrying.
By this time, Xu Laoer also received news from Longcheng.
The Northern Barbarians surrendered!
The Northern Barbarian High Priestess is suspected to be their grandmother!
"Little sister, this is outrageous!"
After reading the letter from Longcheng, Xu Laoer seriously doubted his life and handed the letter directly to Fubao.
Fubao read the letter slowly and then fell silent!
Well, she always thought that she was God's favorite daughter, but now, why did she feel that her grandmother was the one most favored by God?
A time travel, a rebirth, and this is not over yet!
Now, my grandmother has lived another life and has become the high priest of the Northern Barbarians!
If God could appear in front of Fubao, Fubao would definitely ask him, are you sure you are serious about all this?
"Wait, that's not right!"
Fu Baogang was just thinking about asking God if he was joking when he suddenly remembered that at the end of the letter, it was written that the Northern Barbarian High Priest was flying away into the sky, enveloped in golden light.
Dear grandmother, are we really from the same world?
She had practiced for so long but still hadn't been able to produce any innate energy, but her grandmother's skills were clearly that of a god.
But that’s the problem!
This world, at best, is a low-level martial arts world close to the middle-level martial arts level, but now an alternative existence like my grandmother has popped up.
That’s not right!
This world has a path of disaster!
The way of robbing luck, seizing fortune and changing luck is a very metaphysical method.
So, this world is actually a metaphysical world?
Fubao thought about his good luck and finally determined that this was indeed a metaphysical world.
Then, new problems arise.
Since this is a world of metaphysics, then isn't the traditional farming style a bit vulgar?
Shouldn't the normal way to open it be for her to just cheat, condense a breath of innate energy, and shock the whole world?
"Little sister, you were scared too, right?"
Seeing that his younger sister hadn't made any movement for a long time, Xu Laoer thought that she was also shocked by the news in the letter.
"No!"
Fubao replied seriously, "I was wondering why Grandma is so powerful!"
"What? Do you believe that this Northern Barbarian High Priest is really our grandmother?"
"I believe it, of course I believe it!"
Fubao actually wanted to meet her grandmother. After all, it was very simple for her to verify whether the other person was her grandmother. She could solve the problem by just showing the pinyin letters.
After all, the diary left by her grandmother was written in pinyin.
"Little sister, you don't have a fever, right?"
Xu Lao Er reached out and touched Fu Bao's forehead. "He doesn't have a fever. He must have listened to too many stories!"
My grandmother is the high priestess of the Northern Barbarians?
Anyway, Xu Laoer doesn’t believe it!
Not to mention, the letter ended by saying that his grandmother had flown into heaven!
“Woo…”
Just as Xu Laoer and Fubao were talking, the little white wolf running around in the snow suddenly cried out.
The little white wolf was followed by Xu Laoer and Fubao when they passed through Linyao City. Fubao was soft-hearted and took the little guy with him.
As a result, when they got on the road, the little thing started to have fun.
But at this moment, not long after the team left the checkpoint of Xiangyi Prefecture, just a few miles away, the little white wolf came back whimpering and trembling all over.
When Fubao saw the appearance of the little white wolf, he immediately thought of the time when he was in the mountains.
"Second brother, there is danger!"
Fubao decisively warned his second brother!
