Chapter 112: Unexpected situation on the road, there are enemies hiding
"Everyone!"
Just after leaving the small village and walking about a mile, Li Dingguo suddenly thought of a good idea.
So he stopped moving forward and said to Xiao Douya and the others, "I just thought of a way to quickly practice the advanced body skills we just learned."
Seeing that everyone was looking at him curiously, Li Dingguo continued, "We are walking to our destination now, so it's a good opportunity to practice the Yunlong Nine Turns that we just learned along the way."
"In this way, not only can we use the time on the road to practice the skills we just learned, but we can also speed up our progress and save a lot of time on the road. It can be said that we kill two birds with one stone."
It has to be said that the idea he just thought of was undoubtedly excellent.
Originally, practicing body skills requires a long journey, and now this suggestion is just right, as it allows everyone to travel and learn at the same time.
"Great! Why didn't I think of that just now?"
"My eldest brother is the smartest. Nothing can stop him!"
"Yes, Brother Dingguo's idea is good, it kills two birds with one stone."
"Indeed, this will not only save us from wasting our time on the road, but will also allow us to make full use of this time."
"Not only that! If we can learn this advanced body movement technique on the way, it will be of great benefit to the upcoming battles, and everyone's safety will also be improved."...
After Li Dingguo finished speaking, these warrior girls spoke in agreement one by one.
"Well, let's start practicing the body movements now."
"Everyone just follow me, don't run around."
Li Dingguo did what he said and began to stimulate the qi and blood in his body according to the qi and blood circulation method of the Yunlong Nine Turns Method, infusing it into his corresponding meridians, then directly to his legs, and then to the Yongquan points on the soles of his feet, forming a special small circulation.
"Whoosh!"
As he started practicing the body skills for the first time, his body shot out with a "whoosh"!
"Not bad!"
"The professional advanced body skills are really good! Compared with my original basic body skills, both the speed and the leaping and leaping are much stronger!"
Li Dingguo had just started practicing the Yunlong Jiuzhuan body movement technique and hadn't really gotten into it yet, but he discovered that it was vastly different from the basic body movements that came with his previous martial arts.
There is no doubt that as long as this advanced physical skill is practiced to the highest level, his combat ability and running ability will undoubtedly double.
This immediately aroused his great interest, and he began to practice seriously and continuously according to the methods and techniques described in the secret book.
Only about a quarter of an hour had passed, and while practicing their body movements, they had already walked about four or five miles, which was much faster than normal walking.
After gradually getting into the groove, Li Dingguo has successfully mastered this advanced body movement technique, and his leaps and leaps have a touch of unrestrained and freehand charm.
At this time, he could even take the time to provide timely guidance and correction to Xiao Douya and the others who were practicing the Yunlong Jiuzhuan Gong, and impart some of the valuable experience he had just gained.
After a while, Xiao Douya and Hongmei, with their extraordinary understanding, also mastered the Yunlong Nine Revolutions Technique.
Feeling their great progress, the two of them practiced more seriously.
As everyone continued to fly forward for about five or six miles, more than a quarter of an hour had passed.
At this time, the other three talented girls also began to practice this advanced body movement technique, and each of them had an unconcealable smile on their face.
It has to be said that this Yunlong Nine Revolutions Technique is not only practical, but also looks very elegant and mysterious.
It can turn back as you wish when it leaps into the air, which means it can adjust its direction at any time in the air!
If one wants to truly practice this excellent physical skill to the point where one can do it at will, one must at least practice it to great perfection.
Now Xiao Douya and the others have only learned the Yunlong Nine Turns Technique for a while. When they display the technique, they look like fairies floating on the water, elegant and free, very pleasing to the eye.
This advanced body technique, which is both beautiful and practical, is undoubtedly very popular among these beauty-loving girls.
Therefore, they practiced more seriously one by one.
There is a main reason for this: the battle that is about to begin is an actual fight against ghosts. If one's body movements are more flexible, the chances of winning will undoubtedly increase greatly, and the chances of casualties will be greatly reduced.
No matter what the reason is, it is always right to have mysterious and unpredictable movements.
What's more, this Yunlong Nine Turns Method is so elegant and graceful, so easy and carefree, that people can't help but be intoxicated by it.
"Everyone stop now!"
"Something's wrong up ahead!"
When the group was passing a small mountain range, Li Dingguo, who kept circling around them and moving forward to protect them and practice his body movements at the same time, suddenly sensed something.
He quickly went around to the front of the team, stopped and waved his hand to stop everyone from moving forward!
"Brother, what happened?"
"Brother Dingguo, is there any danger?"
"Yes! Have you discovered the enemy?"...
These little girls were all frightened!
They hurriedly stopped, gathered in front of Li Dingguo, and shouted in a panic.
"Don't talk!" Li Dingguo waved his hand to stop everyone from talking. He turned to look at Hongmei and said solemnly, "Hongmei, there may be something unusual inside this mountain. I just seemed to hear a faint sound like a horse neighing!"
"We, the soldiers of the rebel army, have given up searching for the remnants of the Wang family and have returned to the city early this morning."
"Therefore, it is impossible that they are from our rebel army!"
"To be on the safe side, Hongmei, you stay here to protect everyone. I will go deep into this small mountain range alone to see what's going on!"
"Remember, you are not allowed to go anywhere before I come back. Hide yourselves here and wait for me to come back! And you are not allowed to enter this mountain range to look for me."
"My current breath-retaining and concealing skills have been perfected. Even if I encounter an enemy I cannot defeat, as long as I am careful, my safety will not be a problem."
He hurriedly gave everyone a few instructions, then checked the weapons and equipment he had with him, and then waved goodbye to them in everyone's worried eyes.
Li Dingguo used the Yunlong Nine Turns Technique that he had just mastered. After a few breaths, he had quietly disappeared into the mountains in front of him.
The mountain range ahead covers an area of about three miles and is composed of several small ridges.
There is a naturally formed small valley in the middle of several ridges about ten to twenty feet high.
Because this mountain range is very small, Li Dingguo used his perfect-level concealment and breath-holding techniques to the extreme, and flew and sneaked carefully, making no sound all the way.
The trees here are sparse. Not only are there no traces of monsters found along the way, but even wild beasts of all sizes are rare and basically non-existent.
If it weren't for the occasional sighting of one or two small animals like hares running by, Li Dingguo would even think that there were no traces of any animals here.
This is probably because this small mountain range is close to human settlements. Not only is there a shortage of natural resources, but hunters often come here to hunt various not-so-dangerous animals, resulting in this desolate situation.
Li Dingguo saw a small road in not very bad condition, winding its way into the small valley ahead.
Obviously, this winding path has been frequently passed by recently, and the number of people is quite large.
Otherwise, the road condition couldn't be so good, as if someone had specially repaired it recently.
This made Li Dingguo more vigilant and he became more cautious when moving.
His speed was actually not slow, it was even faster than an ordinary person running.
Only about an incense stick of time had passed before they arrived at the vicinity of the small valley.
Li Dingguo immediately stopped, hid behind a big tree on the hillside, stuck his head out and began to look into the small valley.
"As expected, there are really people here. There are quite a few of them, more than a dozen!"
"These are all young people, both men and women, and they are dressed quite well. You can tell at a glance that they are not ordinary people, nor are they refugees who have come to escape disasters."
Because the distance was less than a hundred meters, after careful observation for a while, Li Dingguo had a clear view of the general situation in this small valley, which suddenly shocked him!
What you see is that in this small valley, which is about 20 to 30 meters in radius, there are not only people, but also horses!
There are also several new wooden houses that look pretty good!
These people in the valley gathered in twos and threes, apparently drinking tea and chatting.
At the front and back of this small valley, and near two seemingly hidden intersections, Li Dingguo saw two people on guard duty.
The horses in the valley are not ordinary horses.
Li Dingguo counted them and found that there were fifteen in total, which were obviously dragon-scale horses!
Among them, three are particularly tall and majestic, with extraordinary aura. They are definitely not low-grade spirit beasts and war horses, but at least medium-grade spirit beasts and war horses!
"No need to guess, these should be some of the core members of Wang Family Village!"
Li Dingguo thought about it for a moment and understood. He said to himself, "It turns out that the Wang family had already made preparations for both situations. They had people quietly build a small settlement here many days in advance."
"It was estimated that at noon yesterday, after receiving urgent intelligence from their own spies that Tianjiazhuang Fort had been destroyed in a battle, the head of the Wang family immediately sent more than a dozen outstanding descendants of the family to this gathering place and let them hide."
"After all, the news that the government troops are about to come to Dingbian City to encircle and suppress the rebels, including the Wang family, the three major gentry families in Dingbian City, must have already heard the news."
"They know that the Eighth King Zhang Xianzhong's rebel army will not stay in Dingbian City for long. At most, they will flee in two or three months."
“After the rebels leave, these outstanding descendants of the family can immediately move back to Wangjia Manor. They don’t need to fight at all to reclaim their own manor and other assets.”
"As long as the territory is still there, plus the large amount of property they must have buried before, it will be easy for them to make a comeback."
Li Dingguo's thoughts were flooding at this time. After a little thought, he had figured out all the causes and consequences.
"There is absolutely no doubt that even the destroyed Tianjiazhuang must have built a temporary settlement in a secret place near Dingbian City!"
"The Wang family knows that a cunning rabbit has three burrows, so there is no reason why the Tian family and the Ma family would not think of this."
"Even the destroyed Tianjiazhuang and Wangjiazhuang were not completely destroyed in secret."
“I have to say, this kind of deeply rooted wealthy family is not as simple as it seems!”
After Li Dingguo figured out the cause and effect of the scene before him, he couldn't help but feel that he had been taught a good lesson.
It is estimated that even the Eighth King Zhang Xianzhong was kept completely in the dark and did not realize this.
If it were not for this unexpected discovery, Li Dingguo would have thought that those wealthy families were nothing special and could be destroyed at will by the rebel army.
He had to admit that he had really learned a lot this time.
