Chapter 1713
While Gu Chen's group was quietly watching, they did not know that the same thing was happening on the other side.
"Sister, why are you being so courteous with these people? Just chase them away so that they don't disturb our rest. "
Sitting in the temporary camp that was surrounded by soldiers, a young man said to the woman with dissatisfaction.
The man's name was Tang Jianqing, and the heroic-looking woman sitting beside him was his sister, Tang Gaolan.
"Brother, father has repeatedly taught us not to underestimate anyone in this world. That group of people did not provoke us, and they came here first. What reason do we have to chase them away? "
Tang Gaolan shook her head, knowing that her brother's bad habit of living like a prince was acting up again.
When he asked that group of people earlier, the leader of the group gave him a blatant lie. He was dissatisfied and naturally wanted to teach them a lesson.
However, she answered in time, so he could not lose his temper. Now, he was complaining to her.
"Hmph, the vitality here was unusually restless earlier. It might be the birth of a rare treasure. That guy with a cross tattoo on his forehead said that they were sparring, but he was simply fooling me. "
"It's fine if they are fooling me. I don't care about any rare treasure, but why are we discussing with them so politely? This place belongs to the Water Dance Army. Would they dare to say no if we asked them to leave? "
Tang Jianqing said with some arrogance. Having a group of unknown people around him when he was resting made him instinctively uncomfortable.
"I told you not to underestimate anyone in this world. If you chase them away and they refuse, what good will it do to us if there is a conflict between the two sides? "
Tang Gaolan's face showed worry. Her brother rarely went out, and he had always been arrogant and looked down on everyone. If this continued, something would happen sooner or later.
"From what you said, sister, do you think that this group of people is not simple? Do they have the ability to fight against two hundred of our Water Dance Army elites? "
Tang Jianqing laughed when he heard this. He glanced at Gu Chen's group in the distance with a face full of disdain.
"This mountain is dangerous, but this group of people is walking on foot with only a Flood Dragon. This is enough to prove that they have no background."
"Looking at their clothes, they are also very shabby, which proves this point."
Having no background meant that one had no power. This was true not only in Pei Nation, but also in the Hundred Dynasties.
It wasn't that he looked down on others, but because cultivation was something that consumed a lot of resources. How much cultivation could a person without a background have?
"Normally, I asked you to learn how to observe people's words and body language, and you did learn it. However, you only learned the basics and didn't grasp the essence at all."
Tang Gaolan rebuked, "Think about it carefully. Are these people as simple as they seem?"
"What do you mean?" Tang Jianqing was confused. He carefully thought back to the previous situation and didn't feel like he had overlooked anything.
Tang Gaolan saw that he couldn't understand, sighed, and her expression became slightly serious. "It's the aura! Didn't you notice that this group of people didn't panic at all when they saw the soldiers of my Dancing Water Army in this wilderness? "
When Tang Jianqing heard this, he carefully recalled, and his pupils slightly shrank.
"The soldiers of our Water Dance Legion have a great reputation. Even if we don't deliberately display our imposing manner, it's still enough to make many people feel uneasy."
"However, the soldiers of our Water Dance Legion suddenly surrounded this place, and we don't know how many people there are in the forest, but this group of people didn't panic at all. Remember, it's not just one or two people like this, but a whole group of people. Do you still think they are simple? "
Tang Gaolan felt that this group of people were calm and unruffled, which was why she was so polite.
Tang Jianqing was silent for a moment. He carefully recalled that when this group of people looked at him, it seemed that they really didn't have any concerns.
Was this normal?
In the face of two hundred elites of the Water Dance Legion, a mere dozen people still dared to stay here, which in itself indicated something was wrong.
"Since this group of people is suspicious, why do we set up camp next to them? What if we are ambushed? "Tang Jianqing began to seriously consider.
Tang Gaolan's eyes flickered when she heard this, but she didn't immediately answer.
She had been ordered by her father to send her brother to the Luo Gate to participate in the entrance examination. This was a matter of great importance, and in order to prevent any accidents on the way, her father had specially arranged for two hundred Water Dance Legion soldiers to accompany and protect them.
Tang Jianqing only thought that his father was concerned about him, but he didn't know that the reason why his father was so cautious was because he had received news in advance that enemies were preparing to intercept and kill them on the way!
The source of the news was uncertain, but since there was such a thing, they naturally had to be cautious.
Because she hoped that Tang Jianqing could focus all his attention on the upcoming examination, Tang Gaolan didn't let him know about this matter, and she had been secretly on guard.
According to her original analysis, if the enemies wanted to make a move, the next part of the journey would be the most likely place to do it.
When she first met Gu Chen and his group, her instinctive reaction was that this group of people were assassins sent by the enemies.
However, after meeting them, she quickly determined from various signs that this group of people were not the assassins she had imagined.
First of all, this group of people were the ones who had taken the initiative to find them. After the other party discovered them, although they didn't panic in the face of danger, there was still vigilance on their faces.
Secondly, if this group of people were assassins who wanted to approach them in disguise, then they were simply full of flaws.
This mountain path had always been deserted, and almost all those who passed through here were heading towards the Luo Gate.
The journey to the Luo Gate was long, but there was only one Flood Dragon with this group of people. Was this normal?
If they were assassins, they would never leave such an obvious loophole to arouse suspicion. Therefore, she judged that this should be a group of powerful rogue cultivators who wanted to go to the Luo Gate to try their luck.
In today's world, rogue cultivators were mostly poor, so it was understandable that there was only one Flood Dragon among a dozen people.
After confirming that this group of people were rogue cultivators and judging that they had some strength, Tang Gaolan's mind suddenly became active.
She didn't know when the hidden assassins would appear. Maybe they had been hiding in the dark for a long time.
In this case, she could make contact with this group of rogue cultivators, so that the assassins would not dare to act rashly without knowing the details. It would be best if they could reach the Luo Gate safely in this way.
If the assassins couldn't help but take action, she thought that maybe this group of rogue cultivators could be used as a shield.
It was not easy to train every elite soldier of her Water Dance Army, so there was no need for them to die here.
Tang Gaolan calculated in her mind, but it was not good to let Tang Jianqing know about this, so she changed the topic and reminded him, "Why do you care so much? The assessment of the Luo Gate has always been strict. Do you know Knowing Destiny, Yi Xiang, and other scriptures like the back of your hand?"
Hearing this, Tang Jianqing's attention was indeed diverted. With a headache, he took out a few ancient books from his arms.
"These scriptures are not cultivation methods. I really don't know why the Luo Gate requires its disciples to memorize them."
He complained, but he didn't dare to look down on them. He held the ancient books and read them seriously.
Seeing that he was revising seriously, Tang Gaolan nodded with satisfaction.
After thinking carefully, she got up and walked to the place where Gu Chen and his group were.
