Chapter 20 Unable to start

Before dawn, the whole Kroop woke up. Today is the day of departure. Everyone seems very busy, busy loading luggage, busy doing final inspections, and even busy preparing meals. The clerks have already read out to everyone.

We have learned some basic requirements for the eastbound trip, and limited time is given for many daily chores, such as eating, resting, convenience, etc. The team will leave on time and will not wait for anyone alone, so it is not okay to be as casual as usual.

There were crowds of people in the darkness, and few people spoke. Even if they spoke, they all spoke in low voices. A faint sad atmosphere flowed in the camp. After saying goodbye today, I don’t know when the next time I will return to Tures will be here. Almost everyone

We have poured our blood and sweat into it and left behind so many memories. This departure is truly heartbreaking.

Not far from the meal point No. 6, there was suddenly the sound of men shouting and cursing and women crying.

In a short time, Diff and Ebut arrived with several militiamen. There were many witnesses, and the situation was quickly discovered. It turned out that Eli, a ruffian in the town, committed domestic violence for food.

Difu ordered that Eli be punished with three lashes and no food for one day.

Eli was dissatisfied and shouted why he should be punished? This was his family matter.

There is only one answer from Diff: Tures is now everyone, and everyone’s business is the family’s business.

His wife, however, was completely cowardly and unyielding. She knelt down to plead for Eli, which made Dave and others look angry and pitiful.

"Eli's scoundrel is largely the result of your indiscretion!" a town citizen said rudely in public.

"It's time to deal with this kid!" Eli was not very popular, and some people added fuel to the fire.

Ebut stood up with a whip, motioned for everyone to be quiet, and said in a loud voice: "Master Difu said before that the eastward journey is not one person's business, but everyone's business. There are many difficulties along the way. I hope everyone will exercise restraint and cooperate.

As for those who cannot take the overall situation into consideration, we do not want it, but we will never rule out the use of force to restrain and discipline.”

Eli did not escape the punishment. His pants were stripped off in public, his butt was bare and he was whipped three times. The whips tore his skin and flesh, and he screamed like a pig.

Although this incident was small, it made the people further realize the harsh side of the temporary lord, and the difference between this eastward trip and the usual one, which also made some people feel awe-inspiring.

Of course, different eyes will see different things. From Zhagen's point of view, a target to win over has appeared.

Although Dave had repeatedly asked not to disturb Neo, Neo was still awakened. The noise of the people preparing to prepare was really loud to him.

Compared with the hidden worries and concerns about many things in his heart, the sore eyelids, heavy head, and physical discomfort caused by lack of sleep are just minor problems that are not worth mentioning. Neo is mainly concerned about two things now.

What's the latest situation in Kuian? Are there any problems for people passing through Fallen Leaf Valley?

The second question was answered quickly. Ebut sent people to Fallen Leaf Valley early. The people had just eaten breakfast, and a detective turned back and sent back the message. Everything was fine there.

After a break after the meal, the clerks checked the luggage for the last time. Each of them had their own stall, and the contents, from personnel to livestock to vehicles, were all numbered. This established order and made management much easier.

Turres's eastbound migration team has set off. Today's vanguard is led by the butcher York and the cobbler Edison. Group 1 escorts the food and grass supplies to protect the migration team. Ebut and several militiamen are responsible for the rear.

Neo is also in the back team, riding a white sock, swaying as if he is dozing off, but in fact, he has entered a state of light meditation, practicing the "life intake" skill in reverse.

This is already Neo's fourth practical attempt. The target is a small branch. Neo takes it for granted that if he succeeds, there should be leaves sprouting from the top of this small branch.

The team's traveling speed reached the normal walking speed of 4.5 kilometers per hour. This data satisfied everyone. After all, the route they took was a snowy road that covered half of the calf, not a hardened road.

The weather today is not very good, mainly due to the wind, with level 4-5. In the wilderness, they ran extremely happily, so that everyone could feel the chill mixed with the breath of ice and snow, which also caused difficulties during the march.

considerable resistance

The dim dawn turned into belated morning light, and then the sun weakly climbed up into the sky, spreading light with little heat to the earth. Turres's eastbound team swam forward like a long snake with a striped skin. From a bird's eye view,

From the angle of view, it seems slow but persistent

A few hundred meters further down the field of vision, when the members that make up this 'Flower Snake' become clearly distinguishable, the clerk's encouragement chants can be heard, one after another, nothing more than: "Everyone, please work harder.

You will rest after passing the Fallen Leaf Valley." "We have walked more than half of the way, not far away!" The effect of these plain words is obvious. The migration team is like a long snake. Most of the time, those behind can only see those in front.

The back view of a person lacks a clear concept of the road in his mind. As time goes by, it is easy to feel that the road ahead is far away. The words of the clerks are like a clock telling the time, like a bonfire lit at the destination, giving everyone a message from time to time.

A signal that calms people's hearts

Diff is riding on a horse, patrolling a certain section of the team from time to time. He hardly talks to the people, but will ask the clerk some information. Hunter Wright and another militiaman are guarding Diff. People are vain animals, let alone that one.

The militiamen, even in Wright's heart, were proud of themselves. They were tall and well-armed, and in front of familiar people, both of them held their chests high and looked solemn. They did have the strong demeanor of professionals.

At the end of the team, four horses were led by militiamen. These horses were all hung with simple branch sledges. After being pulled by these sledges, the tracks on the snow would become more messy but relatively even, like

With winds like this today, after a few hours, the traces will be blurry

Seeing the Valley of Fallen Leaves in sight, Neo suddenly opened his eyes, patted the wolf's neck, turned around and ran back in White Socks. After running for a while, he suddenly stopped. After listening carefully and repeatedly sniffing the way the migration team came,

Neo turned back and told Ebut the bad news that there were minions of darkness chasing him.

"Blow the horn?" Ebut asked calmly.

Neo shook his head, "Don't alarm everyone, let the three groups from Team 1 gather at the end of the team."

The order was quickly passed down, and three groups of militiamen gathered at the end of the line with these people at the rear. Together with Neo and Ebut, there were a total of 63 people.

At this time, Ebut had already had a clearer idea under Neo's reminder. He looked at the nervous militiamen who had a vague premonition that a war was about to happen and said: "Brothers, let me tell you some good news. There is a living target for you.

We're practicing..."

Ebut's mobilization speech and morale boosting speech seemed very immature, but at least the gist was grasped. After his mobilization, although the militiamen were not eager to try, most of them calmed down a lot and fought under Ebut's guidance.

Prepare beforehand, and finally listen to the precautions during battle

Zhagen also took the initiative to participate in this interception battle. Seeing Neo who was silently preparing on the side, Zhagen was secretly happy. The first target is here, and the ones who cooperate with it are just a group of militiamen who have never seen blood. Good job.

, maybe the task can be completed in advance here...

A group of enemies appeared at the end of the white snowy field. The rough count was less than a hundred. The pigs advanced suddenly with terrifying momentum.

"Brothers, we don't have to worry about hitting the target this time!" Although Ebut said this, despair arose in his heart. After all, he is a person who has received systematic professional training, and his vision is much better than that of the militiamen.

It can be seen that the number and individual combat power of these dark minions are much stronger than ours. With the enemy's combat power, let alone them, even the entire migration team will be afraid.

You can only be at the mercy of others!

Neo winked at Ebut, and then walked calmly past the queue Dangdang! He knocked the wooden shield of a militiaman with the hilt of his sword, "Do you know what these dark minions who came here were before?

"

"Ruffian, Yakuza?" the militiaman holding the shield said tremblingly.

"Smart" Neo glanced at everyone, "You have all heard that these guys were a bunch of fucking gangsters before! Who has participated in the training camp with me this year?"

"I!"

"Me!" someone in the crowd replied. There were many people who participated in this summer's militia training.

"Remember when we taught those blind scoundrels on Sowers Street a lesson?"

"Remember!"

"The gang we beat was full of goods and they were all looking for teeth. How did we do it at that time?"

"Array!"

"Unite!"

"Well, they're all right," Neo said loudly: "Don't think that you are a rabble. The real rabble is opposite us. These guys are just like the two big guys in the gang that Xia Tian taught. They are useless.

Don't tell me if I can do that kind of thing?"

"If it stays like that, it's definitely fine!" a militiaman replied loudly.

"Raph, you idiot, I'll remember it. I'll see if you're bragging later!" Neo pointed at the militiaman and said.

"Hehe..." people laughed

"Nico, you are a bastard. Why are you shaking your legs? When you need to urinate, you hold it in. Then you use these dark bastards as a urinal jar! I also soaked my urine, and my breath is still there. I have been holding it in and want to kill those bitches! Wait a minute.

, after throwing the spear, I agreed to be the first to charge, if I can’t kill those b!s!”

Neo used a lot of vulgar words, but at this time, everyone felt that it was quite right and relieved their anger. Many people said, "Fuck!"

Zhen Gen stood aside and raised his eyebrows secretly, thinking: "Fuck, he is also a good actor..."

Gaba, Gabba! Neo moved his muscles. His armor looked a little loose. He held a throwing spear in his hand and was ready to throw it. Other militiamen also followed suit.

The enemy is very close and the battle is about to begin

With another wink, Ebut once again understood Neo's intentions and gave orders. It was up to him to issue the orders. "Neo, we obviously have a good example. I now order, double queue, prepare for the longest distance shot."

, double three-position shot! Prepare, prepare... let go!"
