Chapter 218 Hunting Operation
Although there was only a misty moon above the head and darkness all around, the leader, Lao Bai, seemed to understand everything.
The crowd followed him non-stop, straight into the hinterland of the grassland.
In the vast grassland, nothing can be seen under the cover of night, only the whistling night wind blows by from time to time.
I don’t know how long I ran, but in front of a hillside, Lao Bai raised his left hand to signal everyone to stop.
Although the hillsides on the grassland are more like hills than hills, they are very short, with a height of more than ten meters.
"What's wrong?" Su Xiu followed the King of Hell and asked curiously.
The King of Hell pointed to the hillside, lowered his voice and said, "Look over there, is there any fire?"
Su Xiu was stunned and looked up, but he didn't see much abnormality. It seemed that it was all the light reflected from the moon above his head.
Suddenly, a gust of wind blew by, and the light over there swayed.
Su Xiu was shocked, there was something about this old Bai, how could he detect such a subtle change from such a long distance.
"You saw it!" the King of Hell said.
Su Xiu nodded.
"Fat man, stay and take care of the horses. Others, come with me to check out the situation!" Lao Bai jumped off the horse and shouted in a low voice.
Without any hesitation, everyone quickly dismounted, handed the horses to Fatty, and followed Lao Bai quietly towards the hillside not far away.
Along the way, no one spoke. They all held weapons in hand and walked quickly.
Finally, the dancing fire became more and more obvious.
Climbing up the hillside, in the valley below, three bonfires appeared in front of everyone.
Next to these three bonfires, there are three tents set up in a triangle shape.
Not far from the tent, there are six war horses tied up!
"Three tents, six war horses, and up to six barbarians!" Lao Bai analyzed in a low voice.
"Xiao Su, what do you think we should do?" Lao Bai looked at Su Xiu and asked.
Su Xiu was stunned, asking himself about this kind of thing?
"Fuck him!" Su Xiu blurted out these four words without any hesitation!
Hearing this, a smile appeared on Lao Bai's face, he nodded, and with a wave of his hand, the group of people surrounded the barbarian tent.
Su Xiu took the lead and rushed to the front.
It was the King of Hell who was with him.
Killing barbarians can gain experience points, which is also the main purpose of joining Ye Bushou.
His perception has long been released, and there are a total of six barbarian warriors in these three tents, who are sleeping soundly.
He used his sword to open the tent, and immediately, a foul smell rushed out.
However, everyone seemed to have been accustomed to this, and they didn't care at all. They made sure that the barbarian was not awakened and directly touched it.
Like a spirit fox, Su Xiu entered the tent, touched the barbarian on the outside, covered his mouth with one hand, raised the knife and cut his throat directly.
Uh-huh...
The barbarian's vitality was indeed tenacious. His throat was cut directly, and his body was still twitching, trying to make a sound.
The barbarian next to him was awakened immediately, but what awaited him was only death.
Su Xiu's movements were smooth and flowing. The blade on this side crossed his throat, and the tip of the blade on that side had already reached the barbarian's heart.
The knife was inserted into his heart and stirred hard. The barbarian warrior only had time to let out a scream. He grabbed Su Xiu's sword with both hands and tilted his head, feeling that he was out of breath.
With one thousand experience points in hand, Su Xiu exited the tent directly.
The other two sides have also completed their kills.
Even at night, the top scout team of the Great Wall Guards could secretly attack and kill a few barbarian scouts without any problem.
"I didn't expect that not long after we set out, we encountered barbarian scouts!" The person who spoke was the best assassin in the team. He was tall, thin, and dark-skinned. Everyone called him Lao Hei!
"Clean up, continue to expand the search area, and see if this situation is an exception!" Lao Bai concluded, turned around and left.
Su Xiu was a little confused. This was the territory of the barbarians. Isn't it normal to encounter a barbarian scout team?
The King of Hell seemed to know that Su Xiu had doubts, and explained: "The barbarians know that our army will not go deep into the grassland, so usually at this time in previous years, we will not encounter barbarian scouts here. We will only send them when they go south."
Scout out!"
"Then, are the barbarians preparing to go south?" Su Xiu asked.
The King of Hell shook his head and said: "Not necessarily. If they plan to go south, there will definitely not be only this scout team, so the boss wants to expand the search scope just to make sure!"
After listening to the explanation of the King of Hell, Su Xiu nodded.
The group quickly mounted their horses and continued moving forward.
Su Xiu also quietly summoned his two rocs. In a place like this, the role of the rocs is absolutely huge.
Not long after, the roc bird overhead sent a message.
Sure enough, there was a barbarian scout team in a mountain col not far from here, and it seemed that they were not asleep yet.
However, Su Xiu did not speak, because under the leadership of Lao Bai, they were heading in that direction.
The Thirteen Riders did not stop for a moment and rushed directly in front of the barbarian scout team who was drinking.
By the time they came to their senses, they were surrounded!
"Kill!" Lao Bai's voice was not loud, but full of murderous intent.
boom……
With their legs clamped on the war horse, everyone rushed forward and slashed directly at the barbarian's neck with the sword in their hands.
The barbarian scouts who were already drunk were too late to resist and were killed directly.
Su Xiu was lying on the back of the horse, and the sword in his hand had already been blessed with spiritual energy.
puff……
With one stab, a human head flew up high.
The six-man barbarian scout team was killed instantly.
After completing the kill, the team did not linger at all and continued to set off to find new targets.
Under the leadership of Lao Bai, this thirteen-person scout team that went deep into the grassland at night, like the most experienced hunters, constantly found the barbarian scout teams hidden in the night.
When white fish belly appeared on the sky, the hunting operation finally stopped.
"Message Eagle, send the news back!" Lao Bai quickly wrote the note and handed it to Long Jiao Qi beside him.
Changjiaqi picked up a whistle hanging around his neck and blew it slowly.
After a moment, a goshawk swooped down and landed on Long-legged Seven's shoulder.
Su Xiu looked at the goshawk with some curiosity. It was indeed an ordinary goshawk. He saw that Long Jiaoqi skillfully stuffed the note into the bamboo tube on the fly's foot.
Then with a wave of his hand, the goshawk fluttered a few times, rushed into the sky, and quickly disappeared.
"Find a place to rest and continue the action at night!" After finishing speaking, Lao Bai got on his horse and continued to move forward.
When the sky was bright, a group of thirteen people came to a valley.
The valley is not big, and nothing can be seen except wild grass as tall as a man.
Su Xiu followed the King of Hell and walked in, only to find that there was another cave inside.
The wild grass as tall as a person can completely block the tracks of the horses, and on the slopes on both sides, there are pits where people can take a temporary rest.
"This is our resting place, it's very safe!" the King of Hell said.
Su Xiu nodded. With his two rocs looking over his head, he was not worried.
After tying the horse, he fell down and went to sleep.
Sleeping day and night, this is their way of doing things.
Chapter completed!
