All Heavens: Get the Nine Swords at the start

Chapter 277 Before Action

"What about people?"

Zhang Huaiyi followed secretly along the traces left by Zhang Zhiwei, but as he walked, he found that the footprints in front suddenly disappeared. No matter how hard he searched, he could not find any trace.

"Huaiyi, what are you looking for?"

"Who!!"

Suddenly, a flat voice sounded behind Zhang Huaiyi, and Zhang Huaiyi quickly turned around and put on a defensive posture.

"Senior brother?!"

Seeing the person coming, Zhang Huaiyi breathed a sigh of relief, but the next moment he remembered that he had followed secretly, he couldn't help becoming nervous.

"Let's go."

Zhang Zhiwei just said something lightly, then took a step forward and continued walking forward.

Zhang Huaiyi hurriedly followed, but seeing the way he was scratching his head, it was obvious that he had a lot of doubts in his mind.

"When you appeared in the courtyard, master and I had already spotted you, and master expected you to follow up secretly."

Before Zhang Huaiyi could ask a question, Zhang Zhiwei took the lead in explaining.

Zhang Huaiyi scratched his head in embarrassment and said nothing more, silently following his senior brother.

……

On the other side, under the leadership of Tang Tongbi, the three of them conducted a careful investigation around the Japanese pirates' camp. The scope of the investigation was very close to the camp of the ninjas.

As the distance drew closer, everyone had a new discovery, but this time the discovery was still a bit vague, and the three of them still couldn't tell whether their target was really in this camp.

For the ninjas of Bihe Mountain, since they are ninjas, hiding is naturally their best method, and Nintou is the best among them. He has a strong ability to hide. If he does not show up, basically no one can find out his specific location, and He is agile and good at using various hidden weapons.

If it hadn't been for the last ambush that exposed his true face, I'm afraid no one would know what he looks like now.

"let's go."

Just as Tang Tongbi was about to move forward, Tang Jiaren suddenly said softly.

The three swept away the traces left in place, and retreated carefully, and soon, they returned to the place where the large army was stationed.

"Master..."

When everyone saw Tang Jiaren coming back, they hurried forward to inquire.

Tang Jiaren gently raised his hand to stop everyone, walked to the map alone, looked at the markings on the map, and said softly: "Our target should be here."

Tang Jiaren clicked on a remote corner of the Ninja camp on the map.

"But, my lord, we haven't been to this place at all just now. How did you determine that the target is here?"

Looking at the location pointed out by Tang Jiaren, Tang Tongbi was a little confused.

Neither he nor the Grand Master had ever been close to this place when they were investigating together, so how did the Grand Master determine that the target was here.

Tang Jiaren's mouth curled into a smile: "The target's ability to hide is very strong, I didn't even find a trace of his existence in the camp."

Everyone became even more puzzled when they heard Tang Jiaren's answer.

"Look, do you find anything unusual about the layout of the camp on the map?"

Before anyone could ask questions, Tang Jiaren spoke first.

For a moment, everyone's eyes fell on this small map and began to look at it.

"The location of this tent seems a bit..."

The first person to discover the problem was Yang Lie. Amid everyone's confused gazes, Yang Lie walked to the map, stretched out his hand and began to draw.

"Yang Lie, what exactly did you find?"

Xu Xin and Dong Chang leaned in front of the map, looked at Yang Lie's strange behavior, and couldn't help asking curiously.

Yang Lie continued to bury his head in the comparison on the map, he didn't take care of the two of them at all, Xu Xin and Dong Chang were not annoyed, instead, he squatted in front of the map and looked at Yang Lie with great interest.

Yang Lie drew in front of the map for a long time. When the two of them were getting impatient, he slowly stopped what he was doing, with a look of sudden realization on his face.

"I understand!!"

"What do you unserstand?"

Xu Xin imitated Yang Lie and drew on the map, but he couldn't see anything. He could only ask Yang Lie on the side.

"The elder said this is where our mission is!"

Yang Lie pointed heavily on the map, where the Eldest Master just pointed, and said with a hint of excitement in his tone.

Hearing the sound, the others quickly gathered around, looking curiously at the position Yang Lie pointed at, waiting for his explanation.

"Look, here, here, here and here..."

Yang Lie kept pointing his fingers on the map. Everyone's eyes followed his fingers, but they still didn't understand what Yang Lie wanted to express.

"What's wrong with these places?"

Dong Chang scratched his head and asked this question for others.

"Of course it's okay for you to look at it this way, but what if you look at it this way?"

Yang Lie turned the map over and threw out two silver needles at the same time. One was nailed to the location of the ninja camp, and the other was nailed to the place where the problem was found.

As the map slowly stopped rotating, everyone was surprised to find that there was a striking similarity between the Japanese pirate camps surrounded on the map and the ninja camps that were close at hand.

It seems that no matter which direction they go, they will be besieged by at least two camps, and the camp where the ninja gathered is the last barrier.

Seeing this, even the most stupid people can understand that this place must be the leader of the Ninja, and that is where the goal of their trip is.

"Yang Lie, you are too awesome!!"

Xu Xin's eyes widened, he looked at the map stupidly and said in a daze.

Yang Lie, who had recovered again, did not show any signs of surprise due to the crowd. Instead, he looked at the eldest master Tang Jiaren with admiration and said:
"Without the master's guidance, I can't think of the mystery even if I try to crack my head."

Only then did everyone react and looked at the elder with admiration.

Tang Jiaren coughed lightly and scratched his head in embarrassment.

In fact, the reason why Tang Jiaren was able to accurately determine the location of the ninja head was not at all relying on the eyesight of labor and management, all of this was based on his judgment based on years of experience.

When Tang Tongbi led him to a place closer to that location, Tang Jiaren suddenly felt flustered for no reason. After careful observation, he finally locked his target on that remote place.

It was not the first time he had this strange feeling, so Tang Jiaren had been paying attention to that place.

During the subsequent investigations, Tang Jiaren began to conduct simulations in order to verify his own ideas. In the end, he found that no matter which direction he walked, as long as he wanted to get close to that place, he had to pass through hidden sentries and several tents in the camp. to get to that place.

It was precisely because of this discovery that he was sure that the target was hidden in the location he had just discovered.
