Chapter 64: A small minister of agriculture dares to steal treasures?
The straw man climbed the mountain with his feet, while Zhao Xing climbed the mountain with the help of the straw man.
He made a rattan chair and fixed two bamboo poles on both sides of the chair.
Then two walking straw men made of green vines came forward carrying the vine chairs.
The rest of the straw men were scattered on the front and back sides.
The farthest straw man was released three miles away, which was also the limit of Zhao Xing's control.
Although the mountain road is steep, the control limit of three miles is a straight-line distance, so it is more than enough.
If there is any sign of trouble, Zhao Xing will be able to know it in advance.
"The straw man method is really useful." Sitting on the chair, Zhao Xing couldn't help but sigh.
The fast-moving straw man walked on the mountain road as if he were walking on flat ground, and he walked even faster than he himself.
"I will have to study more about the Straw Man in the future. When the time comes, only one Straw Man will be needed to run a hundred miles, saving both time and effort."
In addition, there are four special straw men in the straw man team, and each of them has two first-level Donghu beads installed on them.
It was the sixth straw man technique that Zhao Xing had just learned two days ago, 'Scouting Straw Man'.
It can give Zhao Xing a second perspective.
Zhao Xing could only vaguely sense the other straw men, but he could see these four straw men clearly.
The spell level is not high, only the first level, but it is enough to see very far.
After only quarter of an hour of climbing, Zhao Xing discovered the other climbers.
Through the perspective of the scout, he found four climbers in a pine forest in front of him on the left, besieging two others.
"Robbery?"
Zhao Xing immediately perked up.
He immediately called the straw men to gather towards the front left.
"Qin Feng, my two brothers don't want this low-grade Lingxiu anymore, why are you forcing us so hard?" One of the tall warriors, holding a sword and wearing soft armor, faced the siege of two people, constantly parrying and roaring in a low voice.
"Zhou Gang, you're only thinking of begging for mercy now?" The cold-blooded young man, who was also holding a knife, flashed his knife and continued to attack. "Humph, it's too late. Last time when he was on night duty at the city gate, my brother-in-law just drank a little, but you and Fang Jie insisted on detaining him. Why didn't you show mercy when I begged you?"
"Asshole, was your brother-in-law drunk? He was trying to break through! At that time, the county was strictly investigating the Xuantian monsters and the regulations were like this. How can you blame me and Fang Jie?" Zhou Gang was furious.
"Stop talking nonsense. I've been displeased with you two since I was in Hucheng Wusi! Now you're competing with me for the treasure again. Let's settle both new and old grudges together!" Qin Feng attacked continuously, and his sword moves became more and more fierce.
The scout not far away rolled his eyes around, taking it all in.
As for the sound of their battle, it did not escape Zhao Xing's ears. A breeze carried the sound to his ears.
"Hucheng Military Officer? Officials from Lin County?" Zhao Xing touched his chin and looked from afar using the Five Elements. He instantly determined that the realms of these people were around the fifth or sixth level of Ju Yuan.
The moves are similar, and it seems that they were taught by the same master. However, with four against two, the group with more people clearly has the advantage.
It looks like the fight is not just about treasure, but that's true.
Living under the same roof, conflicts are most likely to arise. This is true even among relatives, let alone colleagues?
Outside, there are rules and regulations, and you can see each other whenever you look up or down. But once you enter Lingshan, there is the Forget-Sorrow Monument, and once you come down the mountain, you forget everything, so it is natural that fighting breaks out.
What's more, there is a treasure in front of us.
"According to the feeling, it should be a low-grade spiritual object." Zhao Xing looked in a certain direction. In the pine forest, there was a fallen piece of rotten wood that two people were hugging.
At the top of the rotten wood, there was a gray Ganoderma lucidum with a circle of purple on the edge. When Zhao Xing looked at it, his heartbeat quickened slightly.
After evaluating the battle situation, Zhao Xing finally came to the conclusion: We can do it!
"Go, steal the Ganoderma Lucidum quietly."
Zhao Xing ordered the two wrapped straw men to move over. The powerful golden men were too conspicuous, and even though Zhao Xing had specially covered them with a layer of straw clothing, they were still not suitable for such a sneaky thing.
The entangled straw man is different. Its upper limbs can extend up to 20 meters! This means that you don’t need to get too close to secretly pick the Ganoderma lucidum.
Two entangled straw men crept forward, hiding among the pine trees.
The color of the entangled straw man made of green vines is very similar to the surrounding environment, and it is difficult to notice if you don't look carefully.
What's more, the two groups were still fighting each other and didn't notice anyone approaching.
“Shhh~”
The tangled straw man crawled down a pine tree twenty meters away from the rotten wood.
The vine slowly extended like a spirit snake, moving along the ground and soon touched the Ganoderma lucidum.
After wrapping it twice, and then gently applying force, the Ganoderma lucidum as big as a washbasin was immediately picked off.
The vines slowly shrank and returned to wrapping around the straw man's body.
Just when they were about to succeed, unexpectedly, the two groups fighting in the Lake City Martial Arts Division had already decided the winner.
The sword in Zhou Gang's hand had been knocked away, and his arm was bleeding profusely, with the bone visible. Another companion, Fang Jie, was also hit in the thigh and lost his combat effectiveness.
Qin Feng stopped immediately, looked down at the two of them, and felt very happy.
"Qin Feng, if you have the guts, kill us!"
"Kill you? Humph, I'm not stupid, how could I make such a mistake?" Qin Feng sneered and tied them up, "I have to thank you two for finding this Ganoderma lucidum... hm?"
Qin Feng's expression suddenly changed: "Where's my Ganoderma?!"
I saw that the Ganoderma lucidum had disappeared from the rotten wood!
"Someone!"
Qin Feng's accomplice realized something was wrong and looked around. With his sharp eyes, he spotted the straw man turning around and running away.
"Bastard! Who dares to snatch food from a tiger's mouth!" Qin Feng was so furious that he didn't even bother to teach Fang Jie and Zhou Gang a lesson. The four of them immediately chased after them.
"You're so disappointing. How come you lost so quickly? Didn't we have the same master as you? How come you can't break his moves? At least hold on a little longer." Zhao Xing originally wanted to avoid fighting and just wanted to be the sixth in command, but he didn't expect to be discovered anyway.
The entangled straw man could not outrun the warriors of the fifth or sixth level of Ju Yuan. Seeing this, Zhao Xing did not hide and showed his cards directly.
"Everyone, please think about it before deciding whether to pursue."
The sound was carried along with a gust of wind.
"Swish, swish, swish~"
At the same time, more than a dozen straw men appeared in the pine forest, blocking the way of Qin Feng and his three companions.
"Huh?" Qin Feng was startled and stopped.
But when he looked closely, he found it was actually a straw man, and he became angry again.
Damn, I thought I was surrounded by more than a dozen people, but it turned out to be just Si Nong’s straw man trick.
"Brothers, you guys go chase them, I'll kill these straw men!"
Seeing that it was just a straw man, the other three no longer hesitated and immediately chased after the straw man that stole the Ganoderma lucidum, leaving Qin Feng alone to face these straw men.
"I suggest you not to do this." The strange voice sounded again with the wind.
Qin Feng pointed his sword and said disdainfully: "You are still pretending. You think you can scare me with just a few straw men? A mere minister of agriculture wants to snatch food from a warrior? How ridiculous!"
It’s my birthday today, please give me a monthly ticket!
