King's Landing

Chapter 25
According to the map, Yue Yu took Ran Li to the east for about three miles.Then, sure enough, ten large foxholes were found under a small hill that the old hunter had mentioned.

This was originally the place where the hunters and pharmacists in the city spent the night. If they were covered with a layer of wood at night, they could spend the night safely in the wild.According to the 120-year-old hunter, these places were still in use about a hundred years ago.It wasn't until the Yue family expelled and besieged the powerful monsters nearby that it gradually became unknown.

Next, Yue Yu started to clear the traces of the two along the way with the fastest speed.In addition to the old suspicions, there are also two smells.

Yue Yu discovered very early on that with the enhancement of internal energy, the five senses of people in this world will improve to a certain extent.Even some exercises can make certain senses of human beings not inferior to those monsters.The method Yue Yu chose was the simplest and violent one.

Before coming, he brought a few bottles of extremely pungent potion that evaporated very quickly.Spray it all around, enough to cover everything up.No matter how sensitive the sense of smell is, it will be useless here.

And when everything was ready, the two carefully returned to the pit, and then covered it with a lot of fallen leaves.

Fortunately, it was late autumn, and the fallen leaves in this dense forest were several feet thick.The two of them didn't need to do any other cover-ups to make it seamless.

Then, within a minute or so, a few light footsteps were heard.Ran Li didn't even dare to take a breath at this time, he was both novel and exciting about what Yue Yu did just now.But at this time, of course, his own life is the most important.Yue Yu didn't care so much, he had placed a few fragments of bronze mirrors on top of the small pit earlier.At this time, using the principle of light refraction, you can see some of the above situations even without looking up.

There were indeed four people who came, and one of them was an intermediate martial artist with four silver lines on his sleeves.This was also within Yue Yu's expectation, the only thing that surprised him was that among the four, only one did not wear the logo of the Yue family.The other three, including the fourth-level martial artist, all had mountain patterns embroidered on their chests.

Yue Yu raised his eyebrows subconsciously, this situation was far beyond his expectation again.Being able to arbitrarily command the middle-level martial artists in the clan to do such private things for himself shows that Jin Xu's power in the clan is far beyond his imagination.Of course, there is good news. There is only one non-family martial artist, which shows that Jin Xu's financial resources are also lower than his expectations.

It's not surprising when you think about it, the Jin family's father and son have only risen in the Yue family city for only three generations, and the accumulation will not be too much.If he really had that much financial resources, he wouldn't have to take the risk of being accused by the elders of the clan to seize their property.

But at this time, Yue Yu had an almost whimsical idea in his heart.Seeing the four people scattered and searching for their traces, there was no danger around them for the time being, Yue Yu lifted the branches and leaves covering his head, then looked at the direction in which those people disappeared, and fell into deep thought.

"Ali, how about we kill them here?"

Originally, Ran Li was about to get up and pull Yue Yu back into the pit, so as not to be discovered by the four people who might return at any time, but Ran Li almost bit his own tongue.

"Master, are you crazy? Those are four martial artists!"

"My eyes are not blind!"

On Ran Li's forehead, there was a bead of sweat.He felt that he was audacious, but at this moment, Ran Li felt that compared with his little master, he was far behind in this respect.

"There is an intermediate martial artist there, maybe he can get rid of us alone!"

Yue Yu smiled hesitantly, but said nothing.He just glanced behind him, the six-stone longbow painted black, and the bundles of long ropes in the pit—they were also left over from those hunters a hundred years ago.Just now Yue Yu tried to pull it, and the toughness is not bad.

At this moment, Ran Li's pupils suddenly opened, and he knew that the arrow shot by Yue Yu that day was definitely not a coincidence.Ran Li tried it himself, no matter what, he couldn't let the arrow pass through the leaves even if it was just a leaf——

"But young master, didn't you say before that you want to hide our strength?"

"So if you want to do it, you have to kill them all in one go!"

Yue Yu smiled coldly.Then there was a cunning look in his pupils: "You said if those three martial artists died in this forest, what kind of reaction would the clan have?"

Ran Li was slightly stunned, and after a while, he seemed to realize something.He didn't know how the clan would react, but Jin Xu, who made them do their own personal affairs, would definitely be devastated.

※※※※

Yue Youcheng is very irritable now, not only because the two prey he was chasing suddenly disappeared without a trace under his nose.There is also the vague guilt in my heart, and the anger of being treated as a domestic slave by that person.

As a middle-level martial artist who was born in the family's Zheng'er Bajing Yunzi Fang's lineage, it is enough to be aggrieved by a guy who is still a servant to grab his painful foot and order him at will.Not to mention, he would be ordered to do such unethical things.

What was extremely irritating was that he couldn't refuse this time.

Yue Youcheng is now over 12 years old, and [-] years ago, his true energy has broken through to the thirteenth level.However, after decades of working hard for the family, he only got about [-] mu of land for himself.Among them, only [-] mu are in the valley, and the rest are newly reclaimed wasteland outside the valley.Not to mention the lack of production, the safety is far inferior to that of Gu Nei.But Yue Youcheng is now under his knees, but he has two sons and two daughters,

— If this was placed 20 years ago, it would be fine.At worst, continue to work hard for the clan for decades.One day, those monsters in Taniguchi will be able to be expelled.

However, Yue Youcheng felt that his physical condition was getting worse day by day.Those old wounds I suffered when I was young are now starting to hurt badly.No matter how optimistic he is, he understands that his time limit is probably approaching.

This made Yue Youcheng, who always liked to rush to the front line in battle, feel panic for the first time.What he was worried about was his wife and children. When he was alive, he could still use the generous monthly payment from his clan to subsidize his family.But what if he dies?

So no matter what, he must leave something for his children, and then find a way to die in battle - this is the idea that Yue Youcheng is holding on to now.

He felt ashamed in his heart, but this was also forced by Yue Zhang.He has never been in favor of using radical methods before, as long as the other party can compromise and give up some fields, he is very satisfied.But that stingy woman is so stingy that she refuses to spit out even an acre!

"Have you not found any?"

When Yue Youcheng returned to the place where he broke up, there were already two fellow martial artists returning.This is not to say that his footsteps are inferior, but that Yue Youcheng pursued further.

As expected, he saw his two companions shaking their heads.Yue Youcheng's heart sank immediately, regretting for the first time that he didn't bring an experienced hunter out this time.It was really hard to imagine before that two children under the age of 16 would have such powerful means.

"Why hasn't Lili come back yet?"

Yue Li, his clan brother, was also one of the companions who participated in this operation.And at the same time Yue Youde uttered these words, an obvious flame rose in the northern sky.The three of them looked at each other, and they all cheered up, and rushed in that direction.

The direction Yue Li is in charge of is the north.Although the family's fireworks signal is used here, there is a possibility of being discovered by others.However, at this time, he couldn't control so much.

The place where the fire was lit was about twenty miles away.With the speed of the three of them, they arrived in an instant.However, when the situation in that direction was reflected in the eyes of Yue Youcheng who was rushing to the front, his mind was suddenly startled.

I saw a human body with no signs of life hanging in the air with its back facing them.What is frightening and inexplicable is that Yue Youcheng is very familiar with both the figure and the scar on his right hand.

But at this moment, he heard a sharp whistle next to his ear.When Yue Youcheng turned his head along the source of the sound, he saw several afterimages flashing across his field of vision.When he regained consciousness completely, Yue Youcheng saw a companion next to him, clutching his throat and falling down.

——At the moment when their minds were shaken just now, this third-level martial artist whose strength was second only to him was blocked by an arrow.
