The northern barbarians are short of supplies, and winter is approaching.
Going south to loot Youzhou was inevitable.
All this gave Liu Feng a sense of urgency.
Now he is not ready yet, and a strong sense of crisis has already come.
Liu Feng carefully examined the wounds of the northern barbarians. It was obvious that these wounds were caused by the sharp claws of animals.
He couldn't tell whether it was a blind bear or some other animal.
The specific cause of death is no longer certain, but the wounds inflicted by the animal were not fatal. The more likely cause is that the horse was frightened and threw the man off, and the death was more likely caused by the impact of a huge rock.
It can be confirmed that there are indeed large wild animals active in this area.
He speculated that this northern barbarian spy wanted to enter Youzhou to gather intelligence.
In order to avoid being seen, they chose to cross the mountain, but when passing by this place, they were attacked by a large beast.
Liu Feng carefully observed the situation around him. Although the hoof prints on the ground were messy, he could clearly see the hoof prints of more than one horse.
Where did the others go?
Liu Feng began to track along the scattered horse hoof prints. If he could get a horse, he would be rich.
Soon we arrived at the source of the river.
To be on the safe side, Liu Feng did not rush to the source of the river to check.
Instead, he instinctively hid behind a huge rock.
He stuck his head out and slowly observed the surrounding situation.
The water flows out from the cracks in the rocks on the cliff, and long-term erosion has formed a deep pool of medium size below.
The surrounding trees are towering and the terrain is unique. Water-absorbing stones formed by various minerals hang on the cliff walls. In the stone caves on the cliffs, various stalactites have strange shapes and are quiet and distant.
It is here that the horseshoe prints disappeared.
Liu Feng carefully moved behind the huge rock on the other side.
Sure enough, he found what he wanted. On the side of the cliff in front of him, in front of a dark cave, a group of dark horses were tied up.
The horses' configuration was almost the same as the ones they had encountered before, with leather saddles, and even scimitars and quivers.
The northern barbarians' horses are here, so he must still be alive.
Liu Feng was five hundred steps away from the cave. At such a long distance, he did not dare to be careless.
The northern barbarians are good at riding and shooting, and if they are not careful, they will be doomed.
He first quietly prepared his crossbow, chose a suitable location to put it down, and waited quietly.
Liu Feng waited for a long time, and all he could hear was the sound of water rushing against the deep pool on the cliff. It lasted so long that he felt a little bored.
A man appeared in the cave. He was not tall and was wearing leather armor.
After coming out of the cave, the man did not rush to leave.
He looked around vigilantly and only sat down by the pond after making sure it was safe.
Then he took out the water bag from his waist, filled it with water, and took out a few pieces of mutton and started to chew on it.
After eating, the man entered the cave again and soon came out carrying a corpse.
Including the ones we saw before, three northern barbarians have appeared.
What are they here for?
Is this the water source?
wrong.
Their purpose is to pollute the water source. The corpses contain various viruses and microorganisms. If the corpses are thrown into the pool, the rivers with this place as the source will be polluted.
Then people downstream will be infected with the plague.
The northern barbarians are really good at scheming.
If they succeed, all the villages and towns downstream will suffer.
“Whoosh…”
Liu Feng decisively pulled the trigger, and the crossbow arrow flew straight towards the northern barbarian villain like a poisonous snake.
However, the northern barbarians reacted abnormally quickly.
They learned horse riding and archery from a young age and were very sensitive to the sound of arrows.
Besides, Liu Feng was behind the boulder, a little distance away from the northern barbarians, which gave them a little time to react.
Although Liu Feng's crossbow is powerful enough.
However, after hearing the sound, the northern barbarians did not care about the direction of the arrows and hurriedly used their corpses to block them.
There was only a bang sound, and the arrow pierced through the corpse and bounced out on the neck of the northern barbarian.
Although the Northern Barbarian was not fatally injured, his neck was still bleeding.
The northern barbarians hurried towards their horses.
His weapons were all on horseback.
Moreover, when the northern barbarians arrived here, they had already figured out the surrounding terrain.
This place is surrounded by mountains on three sides, and only the direction of the river is a gentle slope.
So this arrow can only be shot from this direction.
Liu Feng knew that his position had been exposed.
He quietly turned to a big tree.
This big tree is lush and leafy, perfect for an ambush.
After a few steps along the branches, it hid in the dense tree trunk.
The sound of horses neighing came from the valley, and Liu Feng pushed aside the leaves to look.
At this moment, the northern barbarians were lying on their horses, with their bows and arrows ready to shoot.
The northern barbarian dodged very strategically, hiding most of his body on the side of the horse.
Just avoided the direction of Liu Feng's shooting.
But he overlooked one point.
The vegetation here is too dense.
Even if you can determine the direction of the arrow, what good will it do?
At this time, Liu Feng was already on a high branch.
His actions were clearly visible.
Now that he had encountered this kind of northern barbarian spy, there was no reason for him to let him go.
Polluting water sources is equivalent to a disguised massacre. If he doesn't kill such people, God will take care of them.
What's more, the government has already announced that there will be a reward for reporting or capturing Northern Barbarian spies alive.
At this moment, the Northern Barbarian spies are a treasure.
