After resting for a while, they didn't encounter any problems in the afternoon. Zhao Hai didn't hurry and even deliberately slowed down to let everyone relax. This way, they could prepare for the night.
In the afternoon, Zhao Hai and the others didn't walk for long before Zhao Hai found a very suitable place to set up camp. Then, he announced that they would rest there.
After confirming the camp, Zhao Hai began to arrange the time for everyone to keep watch. At the same time, he also arranged the open and hidden sentries. The open sentries could be changed at any time, but the hidden sentries couldn't be changed. Therefore, the position of the hidden sentries had to be chosen. Everyone who entered the hidden sentries' position had to sleep there and couldn't come out. This was because if you came out, you might expose the position of the hidden sentries.
Because they needed to sleep there, the choice of the hidden sentries' position was very important. They had to choose a place where they could rest. Otherwise, the combat strength of the hidden sentries might decrease tomorrow. In such a dangerous environment, if one's combat strength decreased or if they couldn't concentrate due to fatigue, then they would be courting death.
After everything was arranged, Zhao Hai gathered Nua Yin and the others. After they sat together, Zhao Hai said to Nua Yin and the others, "Although we didn't fight much today, we can still find some problems. The people of the Swordsdance Sect might target us. Based on this, I'm afraid that the people of the Serenity Dao Sect will also target us. Therefore, we need to pay special attention to these two sects."
Nua Yin frowned and said, "What about the Nightwalker Sect? The Nightwalker Sect is our real enemy. "
Zhao Hai shook his head and said, "There's no real enemy. Senior Brother, the Nightwalker Sect can't be regarded as our real enemy. Although we've already informed the Swordsdance Sect and the Serenity Dao Sect in advance, it doesn't mean that we don't have any threat. These two sects are very prideful. In this case, they will definitely hold a grudge against us. They might not show it on their faces, but they definitely won't let go of this opportunity to trick us. Therefore, we need to be more vigilant against these two sects. As for the Nightwalker Sect, I'm not very worried because the Nightwalker Sect is a Devil Sect. Devil Sects have always been in conflict. Although they will seek revenge for the smallest grievance, they also understand that now is not the time for them to fight. The most important thing is to protect their own sect's quota to enter the Sky Pit Secret Realm. Moreover, I'm afraid that the Nightwalker Sect doesn't really hate the Iron Buddha Temple. We've always had a grudge against them, so it's normal for us to kill each other. They might not take it to heart, but they should hate the Swordsdance Sect and the Serenity Dao Sect even more now because they cooperated with the Swordsdance Sect and the Serenity Dao Sect, but in the blink of an eye, the Swordsdance Sect and the Serenity Dao Sect betrayed them.
Nuan Yin and the others nodded. They agreed with Zhao Hai's analysis. Putting them in the same position as the Nightwalker Sect, they hated the Sworddance Sect and Solitary Serenity Dao Sect even more. This was because it was normal for your enemy to beat you up. However, if your partner suddenly betrayed you, then it was abnormal. Such people were even more hateful.
Zhao Hai continued, "But for us, we need to be careful of the people from these three sects, especially at night. The assassins from the Nightwalker Sect like to move at night. Their fighting strength at night is much stronger than during the day. On the other hand, the people from the Solitary Tranquility Dao Sect are also good at night. Because of this, we need to be careful. As for the Sworddance Sect, we need to be even more careful. Their illusions are very useful at night."
Nuan Yin said, "What I'm worried about right now is the poison of the Nightwalker Sect. They can poison people during the day, let alone at night. Moreover, they have many types of poisons. Some of them can be transmitted through the wind, making it impossible to guard against."
Zhao Hai said, "As long as we keep the night watch, there shouldn't be a problem. Even if the poison is transmitted through the wind, it shouldn't be able to travel too far. We still have time to prepare. However, we have to be careful at night, especially between the sentries. Every once in a while, we have to talk to each other to prevent the enemy from sneaking in or poisoning us. If someone doesn't talk during the conversation, then it means that there's a problem. Also, we have to use code when talking. Otherwise, the enemy might be able to sneak in. I heard that the Nightwalker Sect's Appearance Changing Technique is a must-learn, and it's very powerful."
Nuan Yin nodded and said, "It's indeed like this. Appearance Changing Technique is a must-learn for assassins. They can even imitate a person's habits. We should pay special attention to this."
Zhao Hai looked at the sky and said, "There's still some time before it gets dark, but everyone should rest early. Once it gets dark, I don't know if we'll be able to rest for a while. Let's eat and sleep." Nuan Yin and the others nodded, then they went to make arrangements.
Naturally, the others didn't object. Everyone ate some dry rations and then went to rest. They also had experience doing missions outside, so this kind of environment didn't affect them much. Naturally, they could sleep whenever they wanted to. This way, they would be able to restore their strength.
Zhao Hai also ate some food before he laid down on the animal skin. While he was sleeping, he still had the plants around him pay attention to the changes in their surroundings. If someone approached them, they would immediately alert him. This way, he would be able to react immediately.
Although Zhao Hai didn't want to use other methods besides his Body Cultivation, the current situation was different. This matter was too important, it was also related to his future development in the Iron Buddha Temple. Therefore, he had to pay attention. If this operation failed, then it would be a big blow to Nuan Yun's faction. Because of this, he was very careful. Not only did he use the power of a Plant Master, he also used the secret code.
Zhao Hai slept for about four hours before he sat up. It wasn't because he woke up naturally, but because he was about to change shifts. However, it was now 8 o 'clock in the evening, it was very late.
Zhao Hai and the others worked for two hours each shift. When Zhao Hai woke up, he was already on his third shift. Each shift had a leader. The first shift was led by Nuan Yin, the second by Nuan Zhen, the third by Zhao Hai, the fourth by Nuan Ren, and the fifth by Nuan Zhang.
After Zhao Hai got up, he greeted Nuan Zhen and had him rest. Zhao Hai didn't make any big movements, he just sat there and gently turned his prayer beads while reciting scriptures.
This lasted for more than an hour. Just as Zhao Hai's shift was about to end, his eyes suddenly opened. Then he stood up and gently walked to Nuan Yin and the others. Then he woke them up one by one. Everyone in the camp woke up.
The reason why Zhao Hai woke everyone up was because he felt that someone had entered within five li of their camp. Five li was Zhao Hai's warning line. Although he knew everything within ten li, five li was when he was on alert. This was because there were too many things that could happen. It was possible that the other party was just passing by and didn't notice them. One must know that they didn't light a fire, so it wasn't easy to find them.
This time, there must be around twenty people. Moreover, Zhao Hai knew from the plants that these people were a group of Daoists. The two Daoists in the lead weren't young. Moreover, they could move freely in the forest. Their stealth skills were also very strong. It can be seen that the two of them were very good at night battles. Most importantly, they were people from the Solitary Tranquility Dao Sect.
Zhao Hai and the others didn't meet anyone from the Solitary Tranquility Dao Sect during the day. He thought that he wouldn't meet anyone from the Solitary Tranquility Dao Sect so quickly. He didn't expect to meet them at night.
After waking everyone up, Zhao Hai had everyone hide. Even the sentries outside were hidden. They set up a pocket on the path that these people would take. If the other party really entered this pocket, then they wouldn't be polite.
Time passed by bit by bit. The other party directly walked towards their camp. However, what surprised Zhao Hai was that when they were a distance away from the camp, they suddenly stopped. Then they turned and walked towards the mountain.
Seeing this, Zhao's expression changed. He knew that the other party must have discovered them. Although he didn't know how the other party found them, he was certain that they had been discovered. Otherwise, they wouldn't have suddenly turned around. Although the other party acted very naturally, Zhao didn't believe that it was because of some reason that they turned around.
Zhao Hai immediately explained the situation to Nuan Yin and the others. Then he suggested that they should immediately chase after them and eliminate these people from the Solitary Tranquility Dao Sect. He wanted to see how the other party discovered them.
Nuan Yin and the others didn't object and immediately agreed with Zhao Hai. Everyone was divided into five teams. Under Zhao Hai's command, they surrounded the group from three sides.
The other party also seemed to have discovered Zhao Hai's movements. They also increased their speed. It was clear that Zhao Hai's guess was correct. They did discover Zhao Hai's group and then changed their direction. Now that they discovered Zhao Hai's group, they wanted to run.
Zhao Hai was now even more curious about this group. He really wanted to know how they discovered them. Both sides quickly ran for about ten li. At this time, the other party was finally surrounded by Zhao Hai's group.
After surrounding the other party, Zhao Hai's group didn't give the other party a chance to speak and directly launched an attack. The other party clearly didn't expect Zhao Hai's group to be so unreasonable. They wanted to say a few words, but Zhao Hai's group didn't give them the chance.
At this time, a person from the Solitary Tranquility Dao Sect suddenly took out a jade slip and directly crushed it. When the jade slip shattered, a huge white light soared into the sky. It could be seen from far away in the night. (The novel "Bringing a Farm to a Different World" will have more fresh content on the official WeChat platform.
