"Didn't you eat? Come again!" Qin Hao frowned a little. He thought that the method of killing the three-headed demon soldier with three shots in an instant was not like this. He felt that the criminal soldier in front of him was perfunctory.

"..." Zhang Yan picked up the spear, feeling an inexplicable pressure in his heart.He has learned the difference between warriors and ordinary people like him.Especially when the opponent knocked the spear out of his hand with a shoulder bump.

Could it be the true energy of the legendary martial artist? !

Chapter 9

Facing a warrior who was likely to have inner strength and true energy, Zhang Yan knew that he would never be able to hurt the opponent if he was on guard, so he gripped the gun barrel again and prepared to stab with all his strength this time.

"... There is a thunderbolt inside, and the god of thunder is invisible.

Donghui communicates thoroughly, and the five qi are vigorous.

The golden light appeared quickly, covering my body. "

The "Golden Light Mantra" was quickly chanted in Zhang Yan's mouth, the voice was not loud as before, and the speaking speed was extremely fast, and he had already recited it three times in a short time.

Qin Hao frowned slightly in front of him, secretly thinking that Zhang Yan looked very abnormal right now.But other than that, he didn't feel any difference between the other party and before.

"What are you doing? Hurry up...huh?"

Before Qin Hao could finish his sentence, he saw Zhang Yan turn his back and charge up to stab again. The speed and strength had increased by at least [-]% compared to before!Even the tip of the spear trembled slightly in the middle, which made the direction more uncertain than the straight stab before, and made it more difficult to dodge.

interesting!

Qin Hao didn't panic, and still didn't draw out the long knife in his waist, but this time he used his hand.He raised his left arm, turned sideways, and cut to the vicinity of the attacking gun with a very fast hand. As soon as his palm touched the area, the momentum of the gun tip was pulled away by him, and finally he was stabilized after the castration rapidly weakened. Hold on tight!

"It's okay, with some containment and luck, your thrusting method can indeed kill the low-level demon soldiers in one blow. From today, you can practice together, and now go over there to help build the camp."

"Yes!"

Zhang Yan secretly breathed a sigh of relief, it seemed that he didn't need to be driven to dig out the cesspit.I just don't know what to do next.Is it a joint attack battle formation in the army?Or is it a unique means of scouting?

While thinking about things in his heart, Zhang Yan quickly went to the side to find a job and got busy.As for setting up a camp tent, although he doesn't know how to do it, he is still able to help with hard work such as carrying things and smashing nails.

When it comes to strength, Zhang Yan has a deep understanding after coming to Huangtianyu.According to the memory of the original owner of the body, the predecessor was just a businessman in a tavern, and he was only 25 years old. Although he could be called young and vigorous, he was not the kind of strong man who often worked hard.

But based on Zhang Yan's personal experience after traveling over, he found that his body is surprisingly strong, and his arms and legs, which don't look thick, contain huge strength comparable to those professional fighters and even weightlifters on the earth. .Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to dance for several hours without being unable to raise his hand even with a spear that weighed ten catties.

Of course, the reason why Zhang Yan was surprised was to compare the physical strength of people on the earth, not to compare it in the wild world.

After Zhang Yan came over, he found that not only his own strength was outrageous, but everyone around him was equally strong. This is unimaginable on earth, but it seems normal in Huangtianyu.Even the strength that surprised Zhang Yan himself was placed on others, and he would only feel that his strength is ordinary. Even in the eyes of a strong man like Huagou, Zhang Yan's strength is still weak.Not to mention those warriors who mainly exercise their muscles and bones, the gap between Zhang Yan and them is even greater.

Just like just now, Zhang Yan stabbed with all his strength under the blessing of the "Golden Light Curse", and was so simply caught by Qin Hao empty-handed.The difference in strength between them is probably several times as large, and it may even be more than ten times.

The days that followed were beyond Zhang Yan's surprise, and they were much safer than when he fought life and death on the city wall before.

Of course, tired is definitely tired.In addition to the training he had expected for joint attack battles, there were also some knowledge and skills about surviving in the wild.For example, which wild fruits and vegetables are edible in Yubei Mountain, which delicious-looking things are poisonous, which places are often haunted by monsters, which places are frequently smoky, and so on.

And a detailed description of the monster clan opposite Yubei Mountain.This is also what Zhang Yan is most interested in. He listened carefully, and then he understood the general situation of the Yaozu in Huangtianyu.

The monster clans on the opposite side of Yubei Mountain are mainly the "Xianwu Clan" and "Fengxiao Clan".

The "clan" is the most important power structure of the Yaozu.Generally speaking, a demon country is established by splicing together several or even dozens of clans.The Xianwu clan and the Fengxiao clan belong to the "Bright Moon Demon Kingdom" in the west.

But not every "monster" can be called a demon clan.

The demons in Huangtianyu are one of the main high-spirited and intelligent creatures here, almost equal to the power of the human race.But there are several types of demons.Generally speaking, Yaozu specifically refers to "half-demon".It is the descendant of the combination of the legendary demon god and the human race.It has the characteristics of a demon and some appearances of a human race.

The other is the monster in the form of a complete beast. This kind of monster has high or low spiritual intelligence, and they are collectively called monsters.

The last type is the offspring of the combination of a half-demon and a human race, called "demon species".The number of demon species is the least, and they are generally mixed among the human race. They are no different from the human race in terms of appearance, but their blood will have obvious characteristics of the demon race.No matter whether it is in the human race or in the demon race, the monsters are taboo existences. Once they are discovered, they will be hunted down endlessly.

In addition, there are strong and weak demon kingdoms, and they also have main directions of attack.This makes the power distribution of the demon country different.

The Haoyue Demon Kingdom is not considered the strongest among the demon kingdoms, at most it ranks in the second-rate.But it is also much stronger than Nanyuan Country, but their focus is not on Yubei Mountain.This allowed Nanyuan Kingdom to barely resist for a long time.

As for Yubei Mountain, the mountain is rugged and easy to defend and difficult to attack. It is very troublesome just to climb up the mountain. In addition, there are many monsters in the mountain, so it is actually not a geographical location for large-scale attack.However, there are many benefits of attacking Yubei Mountain Fortress. The most important thing is that the defenders of Nanyuan Kingdom can stick to the fortifications, and have no time to defend the surrounding mountain jade fruit trees vigorously, so as to take advantage of the emptiness to loot.

However, although the loss is quite a lot every year, it does not mean that many ordinary people were killed or injured.Because the mountain jade fruit trees are all on the mountain, not a place where they live together.And the mountain jade fruit tree is very strange, it blooms and bears fruit all year round, and the yield is extremely high, but it also suffers from the soldiers in the Yubei Mountain Fortress.

But the two monster clans didn't dare to invade too deeply, and the two sides had a bloody tacit understanding all year round.

The most intuitive thing is that neither the Xianwu clan nor the Fengxiao clan will use too much force when attacking. Generally, the low-level monster soldiers are the main force, and the middle or high-level monster soldiers rarely appear.On the other hand, Nanyuan Kingdom did not engage in any strategy of "clearing the wilderness up the wall". Even though there were losses every year, it still maintained this cruel situation of endless killing but controllable.

Chapter 10

The climate of Yubei Mountain is very cool in the morning and evening, but the temperature is very high during the day, especially in summer, the heat and humidity in the mountain is so hot and humid that even the locals can hardly bear it.

Zhang Yan has never experienced the summer of Yubei Mountain, and it is still early spring, but he has already experienced the cold in the morning and evening.

Counting the days, the eighth day of February is also No. 20 days after Zhang Yan came to Huangtianyu.After more than ten days of training, his group ushered in their first mission today.

The leader of Zhang Yan's group is Qin Hao, a martial artist from Kaiyuan Middle Realm.

In addition, there are ten people including Zhang Yan.This number is a few more than the average "group".And after getting in touch, Zhang Yan learned that except for him, Lao Zhang, and Lao Yu, the other seven people were all warriors.They are all at the initial or middle stage of the Body Tempering Realm.

Lao Zhang is a native of Yubei Mountain. He grew up here and also practiced boxing and kicking. He has been a soldier in Yubei Mountain Fortress for 13 years.

Lao Yu was born as an Orion, and he has been in Yubei Mountain for four years. Although his fighting skills are not very good, his skills in setting traps and tracking traces are first-class.

It confirms what Lin Zedong said before, ordinary people can't come to Youtanqi, and those who come have means.

"You are an exception, you should have come to make up the numbers." Lao Yu joked about Zhang Yan with a smile.Because compared to others, Zhang Yan's "thrust" is not very powerful, and it is not even as useful as Lao Yu and Lao Zhang.

Just make up the number, Zhang Yan has never considered it a great thing to enter the Tour Tanqi, even if he can choose, he would rather go back to the city wall.At least he has figured out the killing intensity on the city wall now, and he is confident that he can survive.Instead of living a life of fear like now.

It was okay before, training in the camp would mean being a little tired, but today, before dawn, I started to slide down the long rope from the fortress, so I was unavoidably uneasy, even walking carefully with my ears pricked up.

Before, Yubei Mountain Fortress had never taken the initiative to spy in the direction of the Yaozu. It had always relied on the city wall to resist, like a turtle year after year.

But this year is different.

When training in the camp these days, I can often hear the general manager Lin Zedong mobilizing everyone. In Zhang Yan's view, this is the belief shaping of the alien version.And don't look at Lin Zedong's bearded and thick-skinned appearance, in fact, his mouth is extremely eloquent, inspiring, he is an absolute connoisseur.Not to mention far away, let's talk about Lao Zhang and Lao Yu around him. These veterans have also become passionate in just a few days, and they are eager to go out and make contributions.

Zhang Yan saw it, but he didn't agree with Lin Zedong's so-called belief at all. Although he also applauded and jumped for joy, he didn't care at all.

What are you talking about?Let me take away my status as a criminal soldier first, and then talk about the so-called belief, okay?

Although he didn't agree with Lin Zedong's encouragement, Zhang Yan also heard a lot from the other party's words again and again.For example, the reason why the defenders of the Yubei Mountain Fortress did not take the initiative to attack in the past, but now they set up a patrol flag to "predict the enemy ahead" is because the main general of the fortress has changed.

The newly appointed fortress general Song Qinghe was obviously not satisfied with the status quo, and hoped that there could be some improvement.So I want to try a strategy that has never been used in Yubei Mountain.

The idea is to be able to know in advance the movement and intensity of the attacks of the Xianwu clan and the Fengxiao clan on the opposite side, so that they can prepare in advance, so as not to be caught off guard and suffer heavy losses. Now everyone is tense all the time.

Zhang Yan still agrees with this strategy, not to mention anything else, early warning can definitely reduce damage, which is good for the soldiers on the front line.

However, Zhang Yan didn't want to go outside the city wall to become a member of the former detective.

"Kakkaka..."

No matter how careful you are, your shoes will still make some small noises when you step on the ground.It's not easy to hide in the still of night.

The first half of the mile is open land, except for the weeds less than a foot high, it is full of rocks, allowing people on the city wall to observe clearly without trees blocking their sight.

After half a mile, there is the ups and downs of the mountains, and there is no way to artificially clear the trees, so the road behind will enter the woodland, so we need to be more careful.

The mission this time is also simple to say, in Qin Hao's words, it is to go to the west for about ten miles. On the one hand, he is familiar with the terrain so that he knows it well, and on the other hand, he can train soldiers.

Of course, if there is an attack by monster soldiers, the first thing to do is to notify the fortress, the second is to hide yourself so as not to be discovered, and the last is to wait for an opportunity to kill the enemy while ensuring your own safety.

Although Zhang Yan was in high spirits, nothing dangerous happened along the way. The group of them successfully reached the predetermined location of the mission, a relatively high point, and they could overlook a ravine in their field of vision. Farther away, you can also use the ravines with fewer trees to find the enemy's traces in advance, which is a good sentry position.

Arrived at the predetermined location, but the task is not yet completed, and a simple beacon stone tower needs to be built.It doesn't need to be too big, just two feet square is enough, cover it with stones to prevent rain as much as possible, and put something that emits smoke in it, so that if there is any situation, the beacon fire can be lit as soon as possible to warn.

"It's just a pity that this place is much lower than the direction of the fortress, and it is covered by dense trees. The beacon smoke can be seen in the daytime as a warning, but it is useless at night. We have to find another high point, and then we can use the light as a warning to prevent it." Live at night to fight." Qin Hao is a veteran in the army, although he followed Song Qinghe to Yubei Mountain, he has long been familiar with all kinds of military skills.It is a pity to look at the location of this place, and think that it can only be used as a sentry point during the day, not as the best place for all weather.It is similar to what I guessed when I looked at the topographic map before.

"Yeah, what the boss said is right. Although this place is good, it can only serve as a warning during the day, and it's not a good location at night." Someone beside him echoed.There is no objection to this statement around.

Only Zhang Yan looked at the ravine below, then looked back at the dense forest behind him, and then raised his head to look at the sky opening above his head like a skylight because of the rocks and no big trees growing up.

This... a place with such a good geographical location is actually described by these people as "it's a pity, it's not good enough"?Zhang Yan felt that his brain was not enough.

Using beacon smoke during the day can transmit the message as quickly as possible to let the people in the fortress know that the demon soldiers are coming, and that's no problem.At night, it can also be very effective in conveying warnings, but instead of beacon smoke, fireworks or Kongming lanterns can be replaced... Well, Zhang Yan thought of this and reacted.

This is not the earth, and it is impossible for people here to know about the inventions of the Xia Kingdom of the earth such as sky lanterns and fireworks.

if that's the case……

Chapter 11 Making Lamps

"You said you have a way to complete the warning at night? Here?" Qin Hao looked at Zhang Yan in front of him with an unkind expression. He had been in contact with the assassin for some days, and he had also heard some stories about the opponent's previous garrison on the city wall. , At the same time, I also have a deep understanding of the other party's title of "lunatic", and it seems abnormal to talk about it all day.

After completing the construction of the beacon for the scheduled inspection point, he started to come back. Unexpectedly, Zhang Yanpao said that he had a way to turn the inspection point with a good geographical location into a perfect all-weather inspection point. Qin Hao had to pay attention to this. .However, having been in the army all year round, he couldn't think of any way for Zhang Yan to change the flaw in his previous position, so he frowned subconsciously, wondering if it was the other party's crazy nonsense again?

Although Zhang Yan saw the undisguised "suspicion" in Qin Hao's eyes, since he opened his mouth, there was no way out.There are no jokes in the army, even for "lunatics" must be strictly obeyed.Besides, he is not really crazy. Once his method is proved to be effective, there is no doubt that a "great contribution" will never escape.

Before Huagou said that if Zhang Yan stayed on the city wall for more than a year, he should be able to clear up his crimes.Later, when he arrived at Youtanqi, Zhang Yan felt that his way of clearing his crimes was confusing again, but now it seemed that there was another turning point.

"Yes, boss, I have played a little trick before. If I change my mind, it can be used on the previous sentry post as a warning method at night. It is not only fast but also unobstructed by the night."

"Simple and quick? Unaffected by the night? Little tricks? Hehe, Zhang Yan, if you shut up now, I'll pretend I didn't hear what you said just now. Otherwise, you're going to bring me something, or you'll be using military affairs It's a child's play, fifteen lashes are indispensable. So you'd better think about it before you speak!" Qin Hao's words were blunt, but it gave the "lunatic" in his eyes the last retreat.

Lao Yu and Lao Chen next to him panicked and wanted to take Zhang Yan away. Like Qin Hao, they thought that Zhang Yan had gone crazy again, and wanted to take advantage of the gang leader's escape route to quickly take Zhang Yan away, so as not to It would be too bad to be whipped.

Unexpectedly, Zhang Yan was still stubborn. Not only did he not leave, but he stiffened his neck and said: "Boss, I am not talking nonsense. I really have a method that can be used on the sentry post as a night warning. And the method is absolutely simple and feasible, please You must let me try it!"

This... Qin Hao waved his hand to let Lao Chen and Lao Yu get out of the way, and then looked at Zhang Yan who had a look of expectation. It's nonsense, is there really some "little trick" that can solve the customary rules about setting up sentries in the army?

"There is no joke in the army, Zhang Yan, did I really listen to what you said?"

"Boss, don't worry, just listen to the truth, I really have a way!"

"Let's listen to it! The rest of the people stay alert on the spot!"

Zhang Yan didn't dare to hold back, seeing Qin Hao frowning and giving him a chance, he quickly told the general situation of the Kongming Lantern.As for why Kongming lanterns were chosen instead of fireworks, the main reason is that Kongming lanterns are simpler and easier to make, and unlike fireworks, which involve gunpowder, which may be difficult to deal with.

"Kongming Lantern? It's a strange name. But are you sure that a few pieces of paper, a few thin bamboo slices, and a ball of oil lamp can fly?"

He understood it, but Qin Hao's expression didn't improve at all, and he was still ugly.He really didn't think the "Kong Ming Lantern" that Zhang Yan mentioned could fly.It doesn't make sense at all!

Zhang Yan also had some headaches, he couldn't explain to the other party what "hot air buoyancy" was, and he couldn't explain who Kong Ming was.He could only bite the bullet and say, "Boss, when I get back to the camp, I'll make one and you'll know if I'm talking nonsense."

Qin Hao nodded. A lie cannot be true and a truth cannot be false. Indeed, one only needs to go back and try to know the truth.But he was still not optimistic about what Zhang Yan said, it was too unreliable.

After waiting for a while, Qin Hao let everyone set off again, leaving only one sentence for Zhang Yan: "Try it after you go back, if it is really effective, you must be a big credit, if you just talk about it fifteen times, then I will Hold the whip yourself!"

Zhang Yan read the stern look in Qin Hao's eyes, and swallowed subconsciously.Even though he has absolute confidence in himself, the thought of being whipped by a martial artist like Qin Hao still gives him goosebumps.

Back in the fortress, "Crazy Zhang wants to build a flying lamp" quickly spread in the Youtan Banner.

The army is closed, and whoever goes to the latrine and pulls his pants can make many people happy for several days, and they will be given a dozen or so nicknames that have something to do with "shit".What's more, building a weird flying lantern that no one has ever heard of, doesn't this make you sharpen your head and come over to watch the fun?

Even Lin Zedong, the general manager, came over, and asked the luggage to bring all the lamp-making materials that Zhang Yan wanted.

It was already evening when we returned to the fortress, Zhang Yan didn't even have time to eat dinner, so he started to work under the eyes watching the excitement.

Kongming Lantern Zhang Yan has been making Kongming Lanterns since he was very young. It was originally a small trick in the Taoist sect. After entering the lives of ordinary people, many practices and customs about Kongming Lanterns were derived.

This time what Zhang Yan made was a small Kongming lantern, one foot square, neat and unpretentious, and its appearance had nothing to do with the word "flying up".

"This is the end?"

"Well, it's done."

"Hahaha... Crazy, you just wait for the boss Qin to give you loose skins! Next time I will see if you dare to speak insanely nonsense!"

No one would believe that such a soft thing can fly into the sky.It is not something of a cognitive system at all, and at first glance, it is impossible to gain anything other than ridicule.

However, Zhang Yan kept smiling, and glanced at Lin Zedong who was standing beside him with a similarly unhappy expression. After the latter nodded, Zhang Yan took out the fire folder and lit the heat source under the Kongming Lantern.

The ordinary rag used for the heat source is soaked with kerosene and packed in a small bamboo tube, exposing a section that can continue to burn slowly.

After only a dozen or so breaths, the faces of the people watching the excitement changed drastically. From "watching the excitement" at the beginning to "shocked" later, even Lin Zedong's eyes widened and his mouth opened wide, with a look of fear. Trust the way your eyes look.

After the soft paper lantern gradually swelled up, Zhang Yan let go of the two hands that were holding it.

"Float up!"

"It's flying! It's really flying!"

The "flying" of the Kongming Lantern will not be very fast, it will lift off slowly, one foot... two feet... ten feet... until there is only a small bright spot left.

This lunatic didn't talk nonsense, but came to the truth!

There really are flying lights in this world!

Chapter 12 Geeks

Although the Kongming lanterns from the earth are not good-looking, they can instantly subvert the consistent cognition in Huangtianyu: things without wings can't fly.
