Chapter 6: Spying is not that dangerous The eastern front camp of Yunyang place is about one hundred and fifty miles away from Yunyang Sect. It's more than a hundred miles, and if you ride fast, it will only take more than half a day to get there. When the disciples of Yunyang Sect were at the front line, they lived near the camp. Twenty miles ahead of the main camp is the real front line, the outermost area. There are many monsters there, and it is extremely dangerous. After the previous batch of disciples were replaced, they will be stationed at the front line next. Over the past two years, the Yunyang Sect has basically completely suppressed the monsters outside. Su Chen had already noticed all the monster's plans. Their sneak attack turned out to be a trap and they fell into an ambush. After many failures, the monsters didn't seem to be so brave anymore and only dared to move around on the periphery.
In the camp, the front-line commander He Chaotang was speaking. “Many people complained to me before, saying that their contributions were taken away by others. I also really hate this kind of behavior of stealing credit. Now the sect elders have taken action and helped everyone solve these problems. Without any worries, everyone on the front line should be more united. Monsters are ferocious, so you should put your own protection first. Talking too much will make people bored, so I won’t say any more nonsense. I wish you all great achievements, fame in the sect, and fame in the Great Zhou." These stirring words made all the disciples present feel excited. In the Great Zhou Dynasty, if one killed a thousand demons, he would be made a baron, and if he killed ten thousand demons, he would be made a viscount. For earls and marquises above that, the number of demons slain is not counted. We need to slay the local demon and put an end to the chaos. In the Yunyang Sect, if a disciple kills demons and makes meritorious deeds, he or she will be valued and cultivated by the sect. From an ordinary disciple to an inner sect disciple, and from an inner sect disciple to a disciple taught directly by an elder. Of course, if you take the credit, you won’t get these benefits. After a short rest in the camp, everyone will do their job and start to go to the front line. When dividing the tasks, everyone started to argue. Who will explore the way? The espionage mission is the most dangerous of all the missions.
Explorers often need to explore the wilderness. No one could be sure whether a big monster would jump out of the bushes. As everyone was passing the buck, someone suddenly said: “Do you really think this exploration is dangerous? If it was really dangerous, would Su Chen take on this task every time? If someone who is only interested in taking the credit dares to take the job, what do we have to fear? " As he was speaking, the front-line commander He Chaotang also began to explain. “In the past two years, the monsters have been scared by us. Now when they see me, a disciple of Yunyang Sect, their instinct is to hide. There is no need to worry too much. The idea that espionage missions are dangerous is a conservative view of the past." After hearing this, everyone seemed to feel relieved. Come to think of it, if Su Chen dares to take on this task, why should they be so worried? Soon, all the missions of spying in the wilderness were taken up. Three newcomers and an experienced scout leading the team. At noon, a group of people set out from the camp and headed to the front line to exchange for other fellow disciples. At the same time, the front line had been stabilized for so long and was ready to move forward. The fertile soil under our feet is a good place to grow crops and medicinal herbs. The further you drive the monsters away, the more land you can get. At 3 ., all the substitutions had been completed. The four-member scout team began to enter the wilderness. The leader of the team was named Xiang Yilei, who had followed Su Chen on several scouting missions. Behind him, the three newcomers were extremely careful. From the moment they jumped over the fence at the front line, the three newcomers started to get nervous. Looking at the condition of the three people, Xiang Yilei frowned. "Your wretched appearance reminds me of Su Chen. You are both equally cowardly." The three people who were scolded mustered up their courage a little, not wanting to be looked down upon. "Relax, Su Chen and I have carried out espionage missions four times together, and we have never encountered danger once. Those monsters are not as cunning as you think. It's not difficult to find their traces if you pay a little attention." Xiang Yilei had a casual look on his face as he walked forward and explained to everyone. “Those monsters aren’t that smart. You can get some clues by looking at the footprints on the ground and whether there is a stench of feces around.
For example, in this area, the ground is clean without footprints, and there is no bad smell around. This means there are no monsters here." Seeing Yi Lei so relaxed, the three newcomers also relaxed a lot. "Let me teach you how Su Chen took the credit for himself. Watch carefully." As he spoke, Xiang Yilei immediately put on a nervous look. "Hush, there's a group of cat demons ahead, don't make any noise, they seem to be gathering towards the east." "There is a dog demon about ten feet to the right. Let's wait for a while and don't be impulsive." "Record everything you just said. The monsters may come to attack in the near future." Xiang Yilei seemed to be imitating Su Chen's actions, which was quite funny. The three people nearby saw this and couldn't help laughing out loud. “The mission to scout the way forward is not that dangerous. The reason why you feel it is dangerous is that many people don’t want you to know about it, and they want to snatch this great way to earn credit.” "Could it be that Su Chen spread the news that the espionage mission was very dangerous, because he was afraid that we would snatch the mission?" One of the newcomers spoke up. Hearing this, Xiang Yilei just smiled. "Do you think they're just afraid that you guys will snatch the mission? If many people want to do this espionage mission, the contribution value reward given by the sect will also be reduced accordingly. Su Chen thinks much further than you do. When it comes to grabbing credit, we are not as cunning as he is." In Xiang Yilei's opinion, the espionage mission was far less dangerous than people said. To put it bluntly, it was Su Chen and those who were on good terms with Su Chen that exaggerated the situation to be extremely dangerous. In fact, it's just like that, and there will be no problem if you pay a little attention. The four of them moved towards the southeast with some ease to see if they could discover any movements of monsters. The atmosphere of the team was completely different from the vigilance when Su Chen led the team. Suddenly, a scream was heard. A dark gray cat demon pounced directly towards Xiang Yilei who was in the front. The sharp fangs bit directly into his face. The next moment, half of his face was torn off. Blood spurted out. We were just chatting and laughing, saying it wasn't that dangerous. When the three newcomers saw this scene, they panicked and had no will to fight to save people.
This is a wilderness, a place full of monsters. Even if they had the ability to kill the cat demon, they had already lost their minds in fear. His legs immediately stretched backwards, not even thinking about saving him. At the same time, three more cat demons jumped out of the bushes. The sharp teeth bit Xiang Yilei's hand, not giving him a chance to take his weapon. He always thought that Su Chen was playing tricks before, and that he was so vigilant in order to gain more credit. Now, he seemed to understand. But life (End of this chapter)
