People in Zong Tomb, Jieling Pirates

Chapter 297 Miscalculation

Looking up at the sky, Chen Ziyan said: "It's not far from dawn now, let's start doing things."

The eagle owl is a typical nocturnal animal, so it will return to its nest before dawn.

They don't know the location of each other's lair yet, they just have done the preliminary work.

Then, without waiting for anything else to say, Chen Ziyan thought for a while and continued: "This time, Huahu and I will go there. You guys can take this time to have a good rest. We'll have to deal with the couple's banyan tree later."

I actually had this idea just now, but I just didn't say it out loud. Chen Ziyan felt that with the drug and the eagle owl prisoner in hand, as long as there were no accidents on this trip, it was basically a sure thing, so there was no need for everyone to go there.

.

Of course, the main reason is that Chen Ziyan has decided that he would rather give up all the rewards this time than directly use firepower to complete the mission.

Again, their core goal this time is the Muchen Bead. Compared to this big goal, a small reward is nothing even if they give up.

After all, there will be many opportunities to get rewards in the future, but the Muchen Bead is the only one. If any unnecessary mistakes occur because of this, it will really be more of a loss than a gain.

To put it bluntly, now they only need to follow the guide, which means they have already succeeded half the way.

Therefore, if you can't do things that are extraneous, don't do them.

It was precisely because of these considerations that Chen Ziyan gave up the plan of dispatching all personnel. He had a hunch that this operation might be very simple.

And if he and Huahu go there, even if something goes wrong, they can easily get away.

On the other hand, if everyone passes by, it will be difficult to hide the goal. When it is really necessary to run away, I am afraid that something will happen to focus on one thing at the expense of the other.

If that were the case, I'd probably have no choice but to fight against the eagle owls.

"How can this be done!" Upon hearing Chen Ziyan's words, Hu Bayi immediately objected.

In his opinion, this was a risky thing, and how could only the two of them do such risky things?

Wang Kaixuan also said: "Yes, this matter wouldn't have been possible without Fatty."

"It is more prudent for everyone to act together, so that even if an accident does occur, we can make corrections as soon as possible." Shirley Yang also said.

She couldn't care less about her little emotions at the moment, all she could think about was how to dispel Chen Ziyan's adventurous idea.

"Listen to me." After Chen Ziyan focused the attention of several people, he explained: "I just thought about it carefully and felt that even if I didn't succeed in the end, I can't make too much noise here.

So it would be bad to cause unnecessary trouble."

"Furthermore, Huahu and I have small goals. Even if we are discovered in advance, we can escape quickly. Besides, you are not just waiting here. You can rest and prepare for tomorrow."

Although Chen Ziyan's reason behind this is not very rigorous, there is nothing wrong if you think about it carefully. After all, if they really mess up the matter, it is just like what he said, they can get away easily with a small number of people.

However, after Wang Kaixuan thought for a while, he said: "Master Chen, why don't you let Lao Hu and the others wait here? I will go with you so that we can take care of you when the time comes."

He thinks this is quite exciting and he can definitely participate.

What's more, who knows how far away the eagle owl's nest is. If it's far away, one more person can be more helpful.

Hearing Wang Kaixuan's words, Hu Bayi nodded in agreement: "What Fatty said makes sense. The two of us did have some issues in the past, so we can rest assured if he comes with us."

Chen Ziyan thought about it for a while, then did not persist: "Okay, just Fatty and the three of us will go together."

Wang Kaixuan's skills are also good. Even if he can't help, he won't be a hindrance.

And looking at this situation, if they insist on just the two of them going, I'm afraid it will be difficult for the others.

But at this moment, everyone subconsciously ignored one thing, that is, Wang Kaixuan was afraid of heights.

When Wang Kaixuan heard Chen Ziyan agreed, he immediately asked: "Mr. Chen, should we leave now, or wait until dawn?"

Although it wasn't long before dawn, there was still an hour or two after all, so he asked such a question.

Chen Ziyan said without thinking: "Let's leave now. It is estimated that when we come back from finishing our work, it will be almost time to deal with the couple's banyan tree."

Compared to the secret couple's banyan tree, these eagle owls are just a piece of cake. You must know that what is in the tree is related to the ultimate goal of their trip.

If the feng shui status of the couple's banyan tree cannot be broken, even if they enter the insect valley, it will be difficult to recreate everything in the original plot.

After saying this, the three of them immediately packed up their equipment and left the camp without any further delay.

Led by Huahu (a prisoner of the Eagle Owl), several people trekked through the jungle tangled in vines.

When he once again saw Huahu and the eagle owl he was holding looking at each other silently, and then pointed out a new direction, Wang Kaixuan finally couldn't help but asked: "Mr. Chen, I haven't seen the Huahu brothers say anything yet.

, how did he know where to go?"

He said he was shocked but didn't understand it.

Even if it was the Eagle Owl who asked, it would still be able to say something!

In fact, this question had been on Wang Kaixuan's mind for a while. He just didn't ask because he wasn't familiar with Huahu, but now he really couldn't help it.

Facing Wang Kaixuan's doubts, Chen Ziyan spread his hands helplessly: "This... I don't know either."

He really didn't bluff Wang Kaixuan, but he definitely didn't know how Huahu did it.

However, Chen Ziyan guessed that this might be related to Huahu's illusion. For example, couldn't the little fairy get the information she wanted through illusion?

"That's it..." Although Wang Kaixuan was not satisfied with the answer, he couldn't say much, so he had to vent his anger on the vines in front of him. The machete in his hand was heavier than the last.

Chen Ziyan looked at Wang Kaixuan who looked like a child and laughed dumbly, shook his head and said nothing.

He has now seen that whether it is Huahu or Wushuanggui, they have been classified as weirdos in the eyes of others, and they will automatically figure out the answer to some abnormalities.

How should I put it, this is good, it saves him a lot of trouble.

After continuing for a while, they came to the edge of the jungle and saw a cliff shrouded in moonlight.

Wang Kaixuan looked up at the towering cliff, and couldn't help but twitching the corners of his mouth: "How to go up here!"

The lost memory returned at this moment, and Wang Kaixuan finally remembered that he still had a fear of heights.

You don't even need to use a flashlight, you can see with the help of the moonlight that this is definitely not a terrain that can be climbed casually.

Wang Kaixuan even felt that it was not easy to climb such a steep cliff without auxiliary equipment during the day, let alone at night.

And this is based on the premise of ordinary people. For him who is afraid of heights, it is simply more difficult. To be blunt, just thinking about it makes his calves a little weak.

Oops! I'm going to be held back this time!

Feeling his unsatisfactory reaction, Wang Kaixuan couldn't help but curse in his heart. He now regretted following him.

"Let's wait here and let Huahu explore the way first." Chen Ziyan said, pretending to have no intention of sweeping past Wang Kaixuan.

He didn't think about Wang Kaixuan's fear of heights at first, but after noticing the fat man's little movements, he still didn't understand what was going on.

However, Chen Ziyan was not too upset. Although he said he was acting with Huahu, in fact, his plan was to let Huahu complete the task by himself, so it didn't matter whether Wang Kaixuan could go up.

"Can this be done?" Wang Kaixuan was a little skeptical.

It's not that he doubts Huahu's strength, but the actual situation is before him.

"Whether it's okay or not, we'll find out if we let him try it." Chen Ziyan said with a smile, and then made an 'action' gesture to Hua Hu, who had already prepared it.

Chen Ziyan, who had already made plans before setting off, had already put everything he could use on Huahu, so now Huahu can go out at any time.

After receiving the instruction, the flower fox did not hesitate and immediately lengthened the rope that tied the eagle owl. Then it lay on the ground on all fours and headed towards the cliff like a wild beast.

Wang Kaixuan was stunned by this sudden and strange movement. After Huahu quickly rushed up, he couldn't help but muttered: "Hey, my Huahu brothers have chosen the wrong name. I don't think so.

It would be more appropriate to call him Huayang, which is like a goat becoming a spirit."

Chen Ziyan had no intention of talking to him about this. His eyes kept falling on the figure on the cliff. Hearing this, he just said: "He has specially trained it. Let's just wait for the final result with peace of mind."

If Wang Kaixuan had not followed, he might have followed him out of curiosity, but there was no need for him now.

No matter whether Huahu succeeds or not, they cannot have the final say. Moreover, Chen Ziyan cannot leave Wang Kaixuan himself below. He is really worried, so he might as well just wait for the final result.

Wang Kaixuan hesitated, but in the end he said nothing.

Although he is reckless sometimes, he is not stupid at all.

Now I finally understand why Chen Ziyan said that he and Huahu are enough. Judging from the current situation, let alone Chen Ziyan and Huahu, I am afraid that Huahu alone is enough.

His self-proclaimed helper is completely redundant. He is already very good without adding any trouble.

However, while feeling frustrated, Wang Kaixuan also felt that this operation was a little more stable.

With a powerful helper like Huahu, the chance of success will definitely increase.

Just after the two of them had been waiting eagerly for about twenty minutes, they saw a burst of smoke suddenly rising from the very high cliff, completely covering that area.

The two of them knew without thinking that this was definitely the drug prepared by Ding Sitian being triggered.

But the smile on Wang Kaixuan's face didn't last long, and soon turned into worry: "No, Mr. Chen, it's still dark, and the eagle owls probably haven't come back yet. Could something be wrong?"

What’s the accident?”

Chen Ziyan was originally immersed in the joy that the matter was about to succeed, but when he heard Wang Kaixuan say this, he realized that the timing was not right.

Yes, according to the original plan, we had to wait until dawn before taking action. By then, all the eagle owls had returned to their nests, which was the best time to take action.

But the sky has not turned white yet, and there is still a long way to go before the scheduled start time. Could it be that we really have no choice but to do it?

With such thoughts flashing through his mind, Chen Ziyan subconsciously raised his foot, but the next second he put it back down.

No matter what the situation is, now that the drug has been used, they will not have a second chance to do it again.

Furthermore, Chen Ziyan had great trust in Huahu's abilities and knew that even if this new puppet armor failed to complete its mission, it would not be left behind by the Eagle Owls.

After thinking about this, Chen Ziyan once again gained some patience and planned to respond here.

"Master Chen!" Wang Kaixuan saw that Hu Bayi was in a daze and couldn't help calling him again.

"Ah!" Chen Ziyan came back to his senses and said, "Fat man, if we want to believe Huahu, let's take a look at the situation first."

He had nothing to say at this time and could only wait and see what happened.

Then he glanced around, his eyes fixed on a bush not far away, and waved to Wang Kaixuan: "Fat man, let's come over here. If anything goes wrong, we can deal with it later."

However, this does not mean that Chen Ziyan will not do anything. Even if he has confidence in Huahu, it does not prevent him from preparing for the worst.

Behind this bush is a forest. The dense canopy can effectively resist attacks from the sky and can also shield their figures. It can be said to be a good place to hide temporarily.

Although Wang Kaixuan didn't understand Chen Ziyan's plan for a while, he still followed him and hid in the bushes.

After entering the bushes, Wang Kaixuan said what he just wanted to say: "Master Chen, why don't you go take a look and I'll wait here to pick you up?"

He felt that there was probably something going on at Huahu, otherwise he wouldn't have taken action before dawn, so he said this.

If he didn't have the shackles of fear of heights, he would have let Chen Ziyan go, and he would have rushed forward himself.

When Chen Ziyan heard this, he shook his head without hesitation: "It's no longer necessary, let's just wait here."

Again, he believed in Huahu, not to mention that the situation was uncertain now, so maybe Huahu didn't mess up the matter.

After all, it is Xiling's puppet armor, and it would look like an apex predator anywhere.

Just when Wang Kaixuan was still about to say something, Chen Ziyan was suddenly stunned for a moment, and then a smile appeared in his eyes.

Because just now, he received the system's task completion judgment, and it was the best solution in his mind, the one that completed the first two choices at the same time.

This also shows that Huahu acted in advance not because he was forced to do so, but because the time he faced was ripe.
