Chapter 199 Night Attack, A Real Strong Enemy

After Wu Xuanyin left, he went to the forest to collect special materials for arranging defensive formations, while Niu Meng and the others continued to build the camp.

Nie Zheng was left alone, and he was wandering around the camp alone. At the same time, he was a little curious about Wu Xuanyin's mysterious technique, and wanted to know what kind of defensive formation and how it was arranged.

Soon, about an hour later, Wu Xuanyin came back with a big bag of miscellaneous things.

At the same time, Nie Zheng was surprised to find that there were still seven or eight tied owls hanging around his waist.

After seeing those owls, Nie Zheng was secretly surprised, thinking, where did this guy find so many owls? Could it be that the defensive formation he arranged required owls to be the eyes of the spiritual formation?
Sure enough, after Wu Xuanyin came back with the owl, she arranged it mysteriously near the camp.

When Niu Meng and the others saw this, although they were curious, no one ran over to watch, because everyone knew in their hearts that as people in the Jianghu, there are many taboos to be aware of.

For example, Wu Xuanyin is a person who is proficient in the mysterious art of the strange sect. When he deploys the formation of the strange sect, he definitely doesn't like to be watched by others. After all, this is his personal skill and secret, and it cannot be seen by outsiders.

Nie Zheng was itching in his heart, and he always wanted to go and observe, but he thought that in Wu Xuanyin's mind, he belonged to that kind of unfathomable peerless expert. If he ran over to peek like this, he might arouse Wu Xuanyin's suspicion.

At that time, Wu Xuanyin would definitely have some thoughts in his mind, thinking, as a peerless expert, how could he be interested in his little tricks of strange mystical arts?
In order to maintain his image of a superior person in Wu Xuanyin's heart, Nie Zheng had no choice but to suppress his inner curiosity, pretending to be calm, with his hands behind his back, walking back and forth near Wu Xuanyin.

Nie Zheng's actions fell into Wu Xuanyin's eyes, but Wu Xuanyin mistakenly thought that an expert was testing the depth of his formation skills. Seeing this scene, Wu Xuanyin's spirit was lifted, and when he arranged the defensive formation, he became more serious.

Several times, when Wu Xuanyin was arranging the formation eyes that she was best at, she deliberately let Nie Zheng see them from a long distance, so that she could show off his strange skills in front of Nie Zheng.

But Nie Zheng looked at it blankly for a few times, and then lost interest, because he couldn't see what Wu Xuanyin was doing at all.

Nie Zheng's uninterested appearance happened to be discovered by Wu Xuanyin. Suddenly, he couldn't help but feel depressed, and thought, "A master's vision is so harsh. Think of my Wu Xuanyin's Tiankui's eye-fixing skill in today's world. It is second to none, but in the eyes of an expert, it turned out to be so dismissive, it seems that an expert is an expert, and my little skill is really a bit of a trick."

After Wu Xuanyin finished setting up the defensive formation near the camp, the sky was already dark.

At this time, he came to Nie Zheng, and with an almost humble attitude, he reported to Nie Zheng some benefits and functions of the defensive formation.

Nie Zheng kept his face straight on purpose, and listened impatiently to Wu Xuanyin's explanation with an air of superiority.

In the end, Nie Zheng finally understood that this so-called defensive formation was actually a small ecstasy formation plus an owl alarm device.

Well, Nie Zheng personally understands it this way.

According to Wu Xuanyin, this defensive formation is called the "Nine Twist Owl Crying Formation", and it is a set of marching formations handed down from ancient times.

It is said that when some ancient armies were marching and camping, they would arrange this array near the camp area for precautionary and early warning purposes.

The real Jiuqu Xiaoming Array is far more powerful than the one Wu Xuanyin arranged today, and the materials required for the Xuanmen are also more complicated. However, limited by the current conditions, Wu Xuanyin can only arrange such a miniature one. "Nine Songs Owl Crying Formation".

This defensive formation is centered on Nie Zheng's campsite, with a radius of about 300 meters.

All enemies approaching or appearing within tens of meters of the array will trigger the eyes of the array, causing the owl to scream sharply.

Of course, if the enemy insists on breaking into the formation, there is also a small ecstasy formation in this formation, which can temporarily bind the enemy in the formation. People, buy some time to defend and prepare for war.

After understanding the basic function of this "Nine Twist Owl Crying Formation", Nie Zheng was quite satisfied in his heart, and thought, although Wu Xuanyin's martial arts cultivation base has been abolished for the most part, but the skill of this strange formation really makes people feel better. People are amazed, and if they stay by their side in the future, it is estimated that they can play a big role.

Among other things, if Nie Zheng led the army to take back the other four states in Annan County, there would be no need for Nie Zheng to worry about the defensive formations deployed outside the city, and Wu Xuanyin would be sent directly to break the formations. That's it.

You know, Wu Xuanyin once said that he used to be the guardian of the entire Annan County, and he was also the supervisor of the army in Annan County. The large guard formations in Annan County were basically deployed by him.

With his support by his side, Nie Zheng's troops in the entire Annan County are no longer afraid of any mysterious mysteries.

After dark, everyone finished eating and drinking, and then returned to the camp early to rest.

At the same time, according to Nie Zheng's instructions, Niu Meng arranged six guards to watch the night beside the camp, in case someone sneaked up on them at night.

Nie Zheng stayed in his small tent, seeing that he was not very sleepy now, so he prepared to take out the two-color bead and study it carefully again.

Carefully took out the egg-sized bead from his bosom, put it in front of his eyes and began to observe.

This red and white bead, as well as the dragon python inner alchemy that Nie Zheng had swallowed, were all obtained from the dragon python's body.

The golden dragon python inner alchemy had already entered Nie Zheng's stomach, and the two-color bead in front of him, Nie Zheng would take it out to play with when he was free.

However, more than ten days have passed, but Nie Zheng has still not been able to discover its secret.

This bead is half blood-red and half silver-white, and the red and white complement each other, but it looks very strange and mysterious from the outside, but it doesn't have much effect. After observing it for so many days, Nie Zheng feels that it is different from ordinary beads. Beads, there seems to be no difference.

Looking at this bead, Nie Zheng was very puzzled.

Logically speaking, since it is something inside Long Mang's body, and the entire body of Long Mang has been weathered in the Arms Commercial Street, why is there nothing wrong with this bead?

Obviously, this red and white bead is definitely not simple.

It's just that Nie Zheng has been unable to find out its secret all this time.

As for what is so magical about it, Nie Zheng felt that as long as he observed it carefully, he would discover its secrets one day.

After holding the beads and observing for a long time, he still found nothing. Immediately, Nie Zheng yawned deeply, so he put away the beads, and lay down slowly to rest.

Ever since he swallowed the dragon python inner alchemy, Nie Zheng felt very drowsy at night every day. Every time he lay down for a while, he would quickly fall asleep.

Especially in the first few days, basically as soon as it got dark, he was so sleepy that he couldn't open his eyes and fell asleep at the end. In the past two days, he got a little better, not as sleepy as before.

………………

Silent night.

In the dark woods, there was an eerie silence.

Ever since Nie Zheng led the people back, when they camped on the mountain every day, there was an extremely strange phenomenon. There were no snakes, insects, rats and ants around the camp, and even those spring insects that liked to sing at night were in their camp. Near the campsite, it seems that they have never appeared before.

This strange phenomenon made Niu Meng and the night watchmen feel very strange.

However, it's strange to be strange, without the interference of those insect noises, it is much more convenient for them to patrol the night, as long as there is any abnormal movement near the camp, they can easily find it.

During this period of time, the weather seems to be a bit cloudy and cloudy, and in the desolate mountain range, there will often be continuous spring rains.

The humidity in the mountains and forests is very heavy, especially in the middle of the night, the entire mountains and mountains are surrounded by fog and visibility is very low.

Now it was the end of the middle of the night, except for a few night guards, the rest of the personnel were all snoring loudly in the camp, and it was the time when they fell asleep.

And inside Nie Zheng's small tent, as usual, bursts of faint golden light emanated from time to time, and the few night guards were curious, and they gradually got used to this vision.

The commander-in-chief is a man who has adventures in the fairy world, and is proficient in the psychic art of communicating with the heavens. Such a gifted and strange person must be different from ordinary people when he sleeps at night.

At this moment, after several guards had completed their usual round of inspection, they gathered together and began to brag and chat.

All of a sudden, there was a strange cry from the night owl outside the camp.

Uh uh uh! ! !
The owl's sudden scream sounded like crying and crying, like a ghost howling.

In the dark and gloomy mountain forest, it looked extremely infiltrating and terrifying.

At the same time, the guards in charge of the night watch could clearly hear the sound of "rustling" footsteps running rapidly around the dark and gloomy woods.

The sound of the running steps was very neat and fast, and one could tell it was a group of warriors wearing heavy armor or possessing extremely high martial arts strength.

After noticing the change, the faces of several night watch guards changed immediately, and they reminded loudly anxiously on the spot: "Night attack, night attack!..."

As soon as the words fell, Niu Meng's sleeping master guards immediately jumped up from the camp. They grabbed their weapons and rushed to Nie Zheng's tent in an extremely fast manner. Marshal, firmly guarded.

At this moment, Niu Meng walked quickly to the front of the tent, took a deep breath, and shouted through the tent: "Marshal, Marshal!..."

After a while, Nie Zheng's annoyed voice finally sounded from inside the tent, "It's midnight, why bother me..."
