A few meters away, the bandits patrolling back and forth did not notice at all.
Zhan Beihan hid in the shadow of the arborvitae tree. After observing for a while, he picked up a small dead branch from the ground.
Twenty bandits were scattered in front of and behind the house, patrolling back and forth in groups of three.
This is a very typical way for the army to patrol the camp.
Zhan Beihan grew up in the military camp. No one knows this pattern better than him. He is so familiar with it that he can simulate the patrol route in his mind when he closes his eyes.
Although this kind of patrol route is strict and tight without loopholes, it is not without flaws.
For example, in the constant cross-over back and forth.
At a certain point in time, most bandits will tend to the left side of the house, while the number on the right side will be significantly smaller.
The man narrowed his eyes slightly, like a dormant king of the jungle, patiently waiting for the opportunity to hunt.
Time passed little by little.
The bandits changed their routes according to rules and habits.
One step, two steps, three steps...
The sounds of different footsteps intertwined together, hidden in the howling mountain wind, were still clearly distinguishable.
It's now!
Zhan Beihan suddenly flicked his fingers, and the small dead branches were like sharp arrows, carrying the mountain wind and slamming into the brazier in front of the house.
Only a loud "bang!" was heard.
The brazier suddenly fell to the ground, and the red-hot coals burst out. Sparks flew in all directions and hit the surrounding bandits who happened to be patrolling next to the brazier.
"ah!!"
The bandits screamed when they were burned, and retreated repeatedly, instinctively slapping the sparks on their bodies with their hands.
"what happened?!"
"Who's calling?"
Others around him were alerted, holding the handle of the knife vigilantly, and hurried over.
Because the noise of the brazier overturning was too loud, coupled with the screams, all the bandits were attracted.
Although they carry reporting tools with them, these people will not use them easily before they actually discover the enemy. Their first reaction is to rush over to check the situation.
This is instinctive and subconscious reaction.
It was this subconscious reaction that Zhan Beihan took advantage of.
He squinted his eyes and watched the bandits rushing over one by one and being gathered into a similar area.
He held two pills on his fingertips, tossed them gently, and silently fell onto the coals on the ground.
"Bang!" "Bang!"
The pills exploded when exposed to fire, and two clouds of thick white smoke instantly evaporated, shrouding all the bandits rushing over.
My vision suddenly became blurry and I couldn't see anything.
"what?!"
"There are enemies!"
The bandits were shocked, instinctively drew their swords out of their sheaths, and looked around with wide eyes.
They were not prepared for the thick smoke at all, thinking that it would only affect their visibility and facilitate sneak attacks.
When the thick smoke filled the mouth and nose, and the effect of the medicine spread rapidly in the body, many bandits softened and fell to the ground. They could no longer hold the big knife in their hands and fell to the ground with a clang.
"No! It's... it's mist!" Someone finally reacted and yelled, but it was too late.
The time it takes to blink.
All twenty bandits fell to the ground, their hands and legs weak, unable to get up.
Ruanjinsan, as the name suggests, softens the muscles all over the body, including the throat and vocal cords, so that you don't even have the strength to shout.
"Quickly, send the signal! Inform the second brother... there is an enemy attack!" A bandit struggled hard, with veins popping up on his forehead. Popular 『』
