Chapter 915: Flute, Long Qin, Short Clothes, Flowing Yellow
【Task: Xiao Changqin Short Clothes Flowing Yellow. 】
[Young man, full of ambition and arrogance, no army of one million can stand up to him. ]
[For some people, what they say is completely controlled by their brains, while for others, not only is there no connection between their mouths and brains, but they don’t even share databases.]
[Yue Yao, a person who should have died in Jingling Prefecture during the invasion of Wuman, died in the encirclement and killing of thousands of soldiers.]
[Under no unexpected circumstances, Yueyao should have died. But the appearance of "you" changed things.]
[Is this change good or bad? No one can tell, but perhaps it is a necessary path to a certain end.]
[This path may or may not exist, just like the legend of the "Blue Dragon Jade Blood Jade".]
[The question is whether you believe in that ending. ]
[Mission objective: Escort Yueyao to Nanli Daoyu. ]
The mission description was like being possessed by Tzeentch, but Mo Cheng still took the mission without giving it too much thought.
Anyway, I already have a mission, and the mission target is to escort to [Nanli Daoyu], so there is no need to think about whether to accept it or not.
The most important thing for him at the moment is to complete the hero template of [The Monkey King]. Completing the hero template requires skill points, and the fastest way to get skill points is through tasks .
At the same time, he had no money on hand. If the Qilin tribe had no more income, he would have to think about where to rob to feed the tribe in three to five days.
Now that he has taken on the task of escorting Yue Yao to [Nanli Daoyu], Mo Cheng can openly ask for supplies.
The two reached an agreement verbally, or it could not even be considered an agreement. In the past, Yue Yao might have signed a contract document with sufficient effectiveness, but now she did not have the ability to consider more.
Her trip this time was carried out in secret and only a few people knew about it. It was precisely because of this that Yue Yao immediately realized that this was a premeditated ambush against her when she was surrounded.
At the same time, she also understood that there might be other traitors around her. Any subordinates who were dispersed by the Wuman army and came back during this period were on Yue Yao's list of suspects.
Being surrounded by enemies on all sides and ambushed from ten directions, these were not just some adjectives for Yue Yao.
Now the only person she could trust was Mo Cheng, who dared to rush into a million-strong army to save her.
If anyone would suspect her now, then only Mo Cheng, who rushed into the army alone to rescue her, would not be suspected. The reason was very simple. She was only a little away from death at that time. If Mo Cheng had any intention, he would only need to watch coldly.
There is no need to even attack the army or face the Golden Eagle Khan.
"Then I'll entrust my safety to Mo Cheng."
"Okay, before we reach [Nanli Dao Territory], even if a million troops come, they cannot harm Yue Yao in the slightest."
Then Yue Yao took out a map and spread it out on the table. Mo Cheng looked at it carefully and found that it was the route from Baigu City to [Nanli Daoyu].
But this route is outlined by countless circles drawn in vermilion.
"This is where I predict we will be ambushed along the way." Yue Yao drew a route on the map. Even the quickest route would have many places where ambushes could occur. "If my guess is correct, we will be in great danger before we reach the [Nanli Dao Territory]."
Mo Cheng looked at the map carefully, "I guess it's impossible to pass through by flying boat."
"It's difficult. We may be able to pass the first few locations, but once we get close to the [Nanli Daoyu], the [Tuntianpeng] of the [Ten Directions Demon Bandits] will lead the Winged Army to intercept us. We will be easily surrounded and killed in the air."
"The Winged Army is fierce and violent, and the Ten Directions Demon Bandits rarely leave anyone alive."
"It seems that the people who want to murder you know you very well." Mo Cheng narrowed his eyes, "Either you dodge their ambush and face the Ten Directions Demon Bandits, or you charge head-on into their ambush. I guess they even sent assassins to take your head."
"The Black List has always included the bonuses of the leaders of the Nanli Dao Territory, but I guess they would designate a few assassins."
Yue Yao frowned slightly. She could still rely on Mo Cheng's power to deal with ambushes and approaching armies, but if she encountered assassins who made a living by assassinating, Yue Yao, who had used up all her magic weapons and talismans, might not be able to resist.
"It's okay, just leave the assassination matter to me." Mo Cheng nonchalantly included assassination in his duties. Other professions were easy to deal with, but he might not know what the tricks were.
But the assassin...
The master assassin who came from the Shadow Sect did not get the title by bragging, but actually snatched it from the Shadow Sect and many killer assassins.
"Then I'll leave it to Mo Cheng. Yue Yao will definitely reward you handsomely after this matter!"
Mo Cheng smiled and did not refuse. In fact, he really needed Yue Yao now in order to support the Qilin tribe.
As she spoke, Yue Yao seemed to suddenly remember something and took out a booklet from her storage bag. "I heard that Mo Cheng has been training outside the city recently. It just so happens that he has acquired a book called [Tian Gang Hegemon Body Technique], which is a Taoist secret technique for training divine guardian weapons. Maybe it will be of some use."
No matter what doctrines the various schools of thought in this world uphold, there are two points that they cannot avoid: one is strength, and the other is the army.
In a sense, these two points can be summed up into one point.
Strength refers to the strength of the disciples of each school. This is easy to understand. If a disciple dies outside because his ability is not up to standard, not only will the resources for his training disappear, but his status will also be lowered in the eyes of other schools.
As for the army, it is even more normal. All schools of thought in this world uphold the idea that "survival is victory". It doesn't matter if you can't defeat the theory, as long as you can defeat the person.
If you can't deal with the monster, then deal with the opponent's duelist.
The military strategists have the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry, the Wu Dang Flying Army, and the Wei Wu Soldiers. The Taoists also have the Yellow Turban Warriors. Basically, all the schools of thought have their own unique types of troops.
At the same time, when the various schools of thought discussed the Dao, the atmosphere was full of gunpowder, with both mouths and hands not stopping.
Mo Cheng flipped through two pages and found this book [Tian Gang Ba Ti Shu] quite interesting. He put it away and planned to read it later when he had time.
"I wonder when Yueyao plans to set off and return to [Nanli Daoyu]?"
"It's all up to Mo Cheng to make the decision. " Yue Yao knew very well that she was no match for [Qilin Talent] when it came to marching and fighting, so she simply let Mo Cheng make the decision.
She has provided all the information she has, and what to do next depends on Mo Cheng's opinion.
"Three days later, I will lead my Qilin tribe to escort Yue Yao to [Nanli Daoyu]."
