Let's suffer a little longer, fellow Blue Star folks.

After they briefly reported to Tang Yi what happened during this trip, they also handed the button device to Tang Yi.

"It is indeed a strict rule of the Yunhe Army that you cannot leave the camp at will. Xie Meng did a good job this time."

Qin Tan nodded slightly, then couldn't help but ask.

"So this time, sending them to the military camp is to confuse the demons in the city?"

"Do not."

Tang Yi put the device into Cai Cheng's medicine basket, then shook his head.

"It's to confuse Xie Meng."

"Confuse Xie Meng?" Qin Tan was a little confused. "Why do you want to confuse him?"

"Because he's a demon."

Now that things have come to this, Tang Yi no longer wants to hide this information.

After all, the player has now returned from the barracks and will not reveal this information.

"impossible!"

Qin Tan's voice suddenly became louder.

"Although Xie Meng is a bit careless, he has been serving in the Yunhe Army and was only recently promoted to the rank of Military Commander. How could he be a demon?"

"Nothing is impossible."

Tang Yi glanced at Qin Tan. He didn't expect that Qin Tan, as the military commander of the Yunhe Army, was still so naive.

Is it because his master protected him too well?

"The Xia family's Patriarch from some time ago, could you have guessed that he was a demon?"

"As long as the demon can find an opportunity and someone gives him time to learn and master the ability to possess a body, it can be a seamless replacement."

"And think about it yourself, is Xie Meng really the same as before during this period of time?"

After Tang Yi finished speaking, Qin Tan seemed a little stunned.

Many things about Xie Meng flashed through his mind, some that happened long ago and some that happened recently.

"I thought he was a little cocky because he was promoted to military commander..."

"This is also one of the common tactics used by demons."

Tang Yi nodded, then looked up at the sky which was getting darker.

There was one last thing he hadn't confirmed yet.

In the absence of high-level demons, how exactly does the other party plan to kill them?

Chapter 41 What are they going to do?

Day 2. Early morning.

It is located in the suburbs about ten kilometers away from Yunhe Town.

"They stopped again."

Chen Lu put his hands together to form a telescope in front of his eyes, then watched the convoy in the distance stop, and then looked back at the Alps beside him.

"How's it going? Have you finished writing your stuff?"

"almost."

Alps responded without turning around.

He was updating the posts on the official website, so he didn't check on the group of NPCs at the moment, and he hadn't even opened the group chat for a while.

"Where are Gugu and the others? Is there any new information over there?"

"No, they haven't sent any messages yet." Chen Lu shook her head.

The four of them are now divided into two teams.

He and Chen Lu were on the left side of this group of NPCs and were now almost at the same height as them.

Gugu and Tianji were on the right side of this group of NPCs. There happened to be a small hill there, so they were now looking down.

The two teams are one high and one low, which not only ensures the diversity of perspectives, but also makes them more flexible in dealing with some sudden situations.

Alps looked at the group and after confirming that there was nothing new, he updated everything he had written to the forum.

Then he carefully poked his head out from the bushes and cast his gaze towards the group of NPCs not far away.

Yes, in order to obtain more accurate information, Alps and Morning Dew had been quietly lurking in the bushes no more than two hundred meters away from the other convoy.

The terrain here is slightly higher, so as long as they don't make too much noise or stand up straight, they should not be discovered.

"What are they doing? Resting?"

"It's not clear yet."

Chen Lu shook her head slightly.

"But they've only been on the journey for two or three hours. It's probably not time for them to rest yet."

After following this group of NPCs all the way, Chen Lu had some understanding of them.

From yesterday morning till now, these people have only rested three times.

Moreover, the first two times were at meal times, and the last time was at night, and I only rested for less than four hours.

So it's obvious that these people are in a hurry.

But now it suddenly stopped again...

Do they still need to eat breakfast?

"It's a bit strange."

Alps watched as a woman in white clothes and pants walked from the back of the team to the front, and then ran back to the middle of the team after talking to a man in armor.

"Did they open the cargo box of that car when they were eating?"

Seeing the woman opening the cargo box of the car in the middle of the team, Alps also asked Chenlu softly.

"No, I remember they all drove the car at the back, which was full of food." Chen Lu immediately shook her head.

He paid special attention to the NPCs who were cooking last night. They got all their kitchen utensils and ingredients from the last cart.

But now suddenly driving the middle car...

"Could it be that the food in the last car has been eaten up?" Chen Lu guessed.

"No, they don't seem to want to eat."

Alps saw the woman directing two men to jump onto the carriage, and then a few seconds later, the two men carried out a large wooden box.

And they didn't just throw the box on the ground, but called three or four more people over.

Then the two men carefully handed the wooden box to the person under the car, who then placed it on the ground nearby.

It can be seen that these people were very careful throughout the process, fearing that the wooden box would be bumped or scratched.

"That wooden box should contain something valuable." Alps frowned, his tone filled with some confusion, "But why would they bring valuables down from a place like this?"

"Maybe he wants to check it out." Chen Lu guessed.

"Maybe they're worried that the bumpy ride these past few hours might damage the things in the box?"

"Look again."

Alps did not deny Chenlu's guess, but continued to watch the actions of the NPCs intently.

Those people took a total of six large boxes off the car, and it seemed to be just as Chen Lu said. After opening the lid and briefly checking it, the woman did not take any further action.

After checking the contents of the box, the woman sent someone to the front of the team to report.

After the person who reported came back, she took out a milky white metal can from one of the boxes.

Then she put the metal can aside and asked a few more people to take turns standing in front of the can, pressing their hands on the top of the can one by one.

"What are you doing?"

"Performing some mysterious ritual?"

Chen Lu blinked, and for a moment she couldn't understand what these NPCs were doing.

Then, about half an hour later, they put the metal can away again.

Alps silently counted that a total of fifteen people had come to press this jar.

Immediately afterwards, the woman in white called several more people over, and then several people carried one box, and the six boxes were divided into six teams, and they walked straight to the small hill on the side.

The rest of the caravan also began to gather. Three large carts drove in the direction they came from and soon disappeared from the two men's sight. The rest of the people, under the command of the man in armor, dispersed to the surrounding areas in groups.

Why drive the car away?

Aren't they going to be stationed here?

"Hurry, hurry, we have to run away."

Alps patted Chenlu's shoulder, then immediately retracted his head into the bushes, squatted down, and ran quickly in the direction they came from.

"What's wrong?"

Chen Lu was stunned for a moment, then immediately followed Alps.

"This place is too close. If they want to station here, our position will definitely be discovered by them."

"If we wait until they send someone over before we leave, we won't be able to leave."

After running all the way to a safe distance, Alps finally had time to look at the group chat they had created.

Gugu: Help, help, help! ! !

Gugu: Those people ran to the edge of me and Tianrim!!

After sending this message, Gugu also included a screenshot.

Judging from the perspective of the screenshot, Gugu is now on a tree, and the nearest NPC on the ground is not even more than ten meters away from them.

Alps: ? ?

Alps: Didn’t you evacuate?

Tianji: It's too late. When we wanted to leave, they were almost at the top of the mountain.

Skyrim: Now Gugu and I are hiding in a tree each, hoping we won’t be discovered.

Alps: RIP…

Gugu: We are not dead yet!

Gugu: Oh, wait, they seem to be loading something.

Gugu quickly sent out a few more screenshots.

From above, we can see that these NPCs have opened all six boxes, and inside the boxes are various silver-white parts that shine metallically in the sunlight.

The woman in white was assembling, and a silver base had already taken shape.

Looking forward from the location where this thing is placed, there is a vast plain that can be seen at a glance, and in the middle of the plain is a bumpy road.

them……

What is this going to do?

Chapter 42: Nice legs!

There was no time to think about the screenshot, Alps and Chenlu ran forward another one or two hundred meters.

Then we finally found a place with relatively high terrain and dense trees and shrubs.

But when they squatted down again and looked back at the road, they found that there was no one there.

What about people?

Aren't we going to stay here?

Where did they all go?
