According to Luo Chu, this is a direction for the future.

Jiang Yue knew very well that the world structure had changed so much that it might be a bit of a luxury to go to college safely and graduate smoothly in the future.

Under this situation, the smooth path in the past obviously seems too passive. The world has undergone major changes, and we must proactively face, adapt, and actively accept this change.

At least, you have to prepare an alternative escape route.

Like Luo Chu's suggestion just now, Jiang Yue felt deep in his heart that he could give it a try.

Of course, it's still early to say this.

The top priority is how to find out Zhao Shouyin, an old guy.

This old fox must be doing something big in Panshiling. If he can't crush the other party's conspiracy, whether he can see the sun tomorrow is another question, let alone the so-called cooperation.

At this time, Lao Kang's cell phone vibrated again and again.

Jiang Yue stood up, walked to a quiet place, and pressed the answer button.

"Boss?" It was still the unfamiliar number that he didn't answer before. Although Jiang Yue didn't have any evidence, his intuition told him that this must not be a normal interpersonal relationship with Lao Kang, but a call from the old guy Zhao Shouyin.

Therefore, Jiang Yue instantly copied Lao Kang in the dark, and his voice was no exception.

"How did you guess it was me?" Zhao Shouyin's voice sounded a little sinister on the phone, giving the impression that it was like a cold sharp blade lurking in the darkness. It could swing a knife from the back at any time.

"Boss, who else is there besides you? If you know the original owner, most of them have names and surnames in the phone address book. Boss, you asked me to go to Panshiling. What are you doing at this late hour?"

There was another long silence on the other end of the phone.

After a long time, Zhao Shouyin said coldly: "You can come if you are asked, why is there so much nonsense?"

Snapped!

The phone hung up, leaving only a beeping busy tone.

What an arrogant old man.

Jiang Yue cursed secretly and put away the phone.

He is becoming more and more suspicious now, maybe he wants to use Lao Kang's mobile phone to bluff Zhao Shooyin, but I'm afraid it won't work.

This old fox is really too cunning. He keeps calling me one after another, and I am afraid he has become suspicious.

It can also be indirectly seen from the content of the conversation that the replicator is indeed worthless in Zhao Shouyin's eyes, and is not much different from the chess pieces on the chessboard.

It's like trying to catch pieces in chess. If you eat it, you'll eat it, and you won't feel bad.

As long as the veteran commander is not killed in the end, it doesn't matter to the overall situation.

"Luo Chu, Sangou, no matter if we have enough manpower or not, we must find that old fox Zhao Shouyin."

Now it is absolutely certain that the old fox is in Panshi Ridge.

It can even be said that the distance between them may be only a few hundred meters at most.

It's just that in such a deserted mountain village and it's late at night, you can hide anywhere. It's really not easy to find a person as cunning as a fox.

But it’s impossible not to look for it.

In the group of replicators, Zhao Shouyin repeatedly emphasized that tonight is the most critical night.

It's obvious that Zhao Shouyin is going to do something big tonight.

Although Jiang Yue and the others destroyed the replicators, the eight places assigned by Zhao Shouyin were not completed.

But Jiang Yue was not sure whether Zhao Shouyin was helpless because of the lack of these eight places?

This may not be the case.

With an old silver coin like Zhao Shouyin, it is absolutely impossible for him to put all his eggs in one basket. Maybe he also has a backup plan?

When dealing with such an old fox, any carelessness may be fatal.

"Second brother, there are only so many people in Panshiling. He, Zhao Shouyin, is an outsider. He can't be more familiar with me than me, right? I don't believe I can't find him!"

In their own territory, Sangou will not admit defeat and will not allow outsiders to run wild in Panshi Ridge.

Picking up the sharp hatchet at the corner of the door, he was the first to walk out the door.

"Luo Chu, you and the three dogs are in a group, and I will act alone."

Luo Chu was not pretentious and nodded.

"Zhao Shouyin controls dozens of resentful spirits, so be careful." Jiang Yue is not worried about the three dogs, but Luo Chu. Although he is the small head of the special department, he does not have the halo of immunity from all evil, and the big boss with dozens of resentful spirits

He may not have experienced any battles.

Of course, as the head of the special department, he must have some trump cards, right?

The soldiers were divided into two groups and agreed to meet at the other end of the village entrance.

The night in the mountain village is quiet. In this season, it should be a pleasure to enjoy the mountain breeze, absorb the fresh air of the mountain village, and enjoy the natural chirping of insects and frogs.

But on this night, the hazy and pale moonlight occasionally fell on the mottled and dilapidated corners of the house, but it seemed a little more terrifying.

A slight breeze blowing, a slight movement of grass, a bug jumping over, all seem to bring with them a terrifying atmosphere.

Jiang Yue walked slowly on the path of Panshiling.

The roads in the mountain village have changed very little in ten or twenty years. Many conditions remain the same as when I was a child and lived here with my grandfather for a long time.

There was a question in his mind.

It was obvious that Zhao Shouyin also knew that outsiders had broken into Panshi Ridge, and he even knew that these outsiders were coming for him.

So why didn't he take action?

Why don't the dozens of vengeful spirits and ghosts he controls take action?

As night falls, there is not much Yang Qi left, but Yin Qi keeps growing. Isn't it time for the evil spirits and evil ghosts to appear?

What about those evil spirits? Where are they lurking?

Every time he passed a house, Jiang Yue would stop and not approach. Instead, he stood quietly at the door and listened carefully for a while.

It's a pity that even in those houses that look relatively new and should theoretically be occupied by people, they haven't heard the slightest sound of human activity.

Not to mention those houses that are obviously in disrepair. Except for snakes, rats, centipedes and the like, there is no smoke at all, so it is impossible for anyone to live there.

Weird thing!

Jiang Yue frowned.

He remembered the farmhouses he passed in the wilderness of Yunxi Town before entering Yunxi Town, the domestic animals that escaped along the way, and the wild insects, snakes, rats, and rabbits.

That scene was obviously different from Panshiling.

These wild snakes, rats, centipedes have not left Panshi Ridge.

Could it be said that the creatures here are not afraid of resentful spirits and evil ghosts?

Or are those resentful spirits and evil ghosts actually not in Panshi Ridge?

If those ghosts are not in Panshi Ridge, where are they? They are not in Panshi Ridge, but Zhao Shouyin is nesting in Panshi Ridge. What is the logic of this?

Jiang Yue had many questions swirling in his mind, and after a while, he reached the entrance of the village.

Sangou and Luo Chu also walked to the village entrance from the other end.

They didn't speak to each other, and you could tell just from their eyes that they got nothing.

Facing outside the village entrance is Panshiling's main road leading to the outside world. Generally, people in the village will choose this road when entering or exiting, because it is relatively spacious and can barely pass motor vehicles.

While the three of them were hesitating, Jiang Yue suddenly twitched his ears and began to listen to the void.

At the same time, he made a movement with his hand to silence Sangou and Luo Chu.

His action alarmed Sangou and Luo Chu, who both looked at him strangely.

"Didn't you hear anything?"

"What?" Luo Chu asked. He listened carefully for a while, but he really didn't hear anything.

Born as a Sangou mountain dweller, he is also considered to have sharp ears and eyesight. After listening carefully, he didn't find anything.

"Listen again." Jiang Yue's expression became extremely solemn, and his tone actually revealed some unprecedented depression, even mixed with a trace of nervousness.

Sangou had never seen the serious side of his second brother, and knew that something was definitely going on. He stopped making jokes and listened carefully.

"There was a rustling sound, like thousands of troops and horses, slowly approaching in the direction of Panshi Ridge..." Jiang Yue said solemnly.

"From that side of the road?" Sangou couldn't help but ask.

"No! In all directions!"

in all directions?

Luo Chu was confused.

Panshiling is a mountain village, not the kind of transportation fortress that extends in all directions. How can it be in all directions? There are at most some winding trails around it, or very difficult mountain roads.

"Xiao Jiang, what exactly is going on?"

"Footsteps!" Jiang Yue frowned.
