"What? The patrol team hasn't returned yet?! "
The leader of the Qiang people could not sit still any longer and yelled out.
This patrol team of more than a dozen people had been out for about three days, but there was no news of them, and they never came back.
"Find them! If they're alive, I want to see their corpses!"
The leader gritted his teeth.
"Damn it, the Han dogs must be behind this!"
"I must send troops and crush their borders with our cavalry!"
The person who looked like a military counselor waved his hand and said,
"Leader, please calm down."
"If it was before, we would have easily dealt with the Han dogs."
"But for some reason, the Han dogs have been sending more and more people to guard the borders, and their weapons are very strange."
"The scouts we sent were all killed by them."
"Moreover, in my opinion, the Han dogs might not be the ones who killed the patrol team. They might have the numbers, but they might not have the strength to do so. "
"These patrol team soldiers were all killed by lightning!"
When the leader heard this, he could not help but frown.
"Ridiculous! Are there people in this world who can control lightning? "
The military advisor shook his head heavily and said, "That's right.
"No, I suspect that it wasn't done by humans at all."
"Perhaps the gods are angry. We shouldn't send any more warriors to their deaths."
"These soldiers, I'm afraid …"
The military advisor sighed helplessly and did not continue.
He had tried to persuade the leader, but the leader did not listen. He insisted that the Han people were behind this.
However, the military advisor had sent out many scouts, only to find that the Han people had been guarding the city and forbidding anyone from entering or leaving.
This was extremely unusual, but it also meant that it was not done by the Han people.
If they continued to send out scouts, it would be a meaningless sacrifice.
The Qiang tribe currently had about four hundred thousand people and about a hundred thousand soldiers.
Most of these soldiers were cavalry, and they were very mobile.
As for infantry, there were very few of them. After all, the Qiang people lived in a very barren land. Most of the land was mountain ranges, not open plains like the Central Plains.
The effect of the infantrymen was negligible.
Only some reconnaissance troops or patrol troops would travel on foot when they were closer to the city.
However, it was at such a close distance that this kind of thing kept happening.
The leader couldn't sit still any longer.
If this was really done by humans, then wouldn't he be in danger?
These people were obviously here for the Qiang people!
Only Western Liang would have such enmity towards the Qiang people, and also bordering this place.
"Reporting! Leader! About a thousand steps away from the camp, we discovered something strange. Dark clouds suddenly gathered in the sky and lightning struck down. "
"The patrol team also found it here."
"They've all died in battle. None of them survived."
Suddenly, a scout rushed over and gritted his teeth.
The leader couldn't sit still any longer. He quickly shouted and stood up to check on the injuries of the patrolling soldiers.
Sure enough, without exception, these soldiers were exactly the same as before. There were many knife wounds on their bodies, followed by burn marks all over their bodies.
Among them, two of the soldiers had their bodies directly chopped into two halves.
The situation was too horrible to look at. Even the leader, who had seen countless scenes, felt a little nauseous.
"Damn it, damn it! Those Han dogs have bullied us too much! "
"Pass down my order! All soldiers, except for the defenders, attack and search the surroundings. We must find this troublemaker!"
"I'll tear her to pieces!"
The leader's eyes were bloodshot as he roared.
The military advisor knew that he couldn't persuade him otherwise.
However, the leader's actions were undoubtedly correct.
Of the one hundred thousand soldiers, ten thousand would be left behind to defend, while the remaining ninety thousand would attack.
No matter who it was, it would be impossible to destroy ninety thousand cavalry at once.
Otherwise, why would she need to hide in the surroundings? She could have just killed her way here.
Although the military advisor couldn't determine whether this was a natural phenomenon or a man-made one, he was certain that this person was here for the Qiang people.
In truth, there were other tribes in the surroundings that had never encountered such a situation. Only the Qiang people had encountered it time and time again.
This was definitely not a coincidence.
If they couldn't find this person, the entire Qiang tribe would face an unprecedented crisis.
However, they didn't expect that Zhang Ning had already stealthily circled around the Qiang tribe and arrived at the other tribes.
The Qiang cavalry began a carpet search, not letting go of every corner. They even searched the caves.
In this situation, Zhang Ning couldn't deal with them all alone.
Even if Zhang Ning had the Taiping Art and could summon lightning and cast beans to create soldiers, she couldn't do it alone.
How could she deal with ninety thousand cavalry all by herself?
Moreover, Zhang Ning had already made a plan before coming here.
Harassing the Qiang tribe and causing them to panic was already Zhang Ning's true goal.
Moreover, she had killed five or six waves of Qiang soldiers over the past few days, and the last wave had more than ten people.
After a few rounds, Zhang Ning's body was unable to take it.
Soon, Zhang Ning removed the shadow and shrunk the straw doll to her waist.
"It looks like I need to find that young man called Bai Feng."
Zhang Ning was hiding in a cave, panting.
A few days ago, Zhang Ning had met Yu Ji.
Yu Ji had told Zhang Ning everything about Bai Feng's ability to cure the backlash from the Taiping Art.
At first, Zhang Ning had only suspected it, but she hadn't expected Bai Feng to really be able to cure it.
Therefore, Zhang Ning decided to throw a brick to attract the jade. He made a new copy of the Taiping Technique in his hands and used the Human Scroll to hide the handwriting. Then, he found Ma Yunlu and entrusted her to bring it to Bai Feng.
This way, Bai Feng would at least benefit from her.
After all, in Zhang Ning's view, countless people dreamed of obtaining the Taiping Art, and Bai Feng was no exception.
Thus, she would be confident when she went to Bai Feng for treatment.
However, Zhang Ning didn't expect that Bai Feng didn't even bother to look at the Taiping Art and just threw it on the bookshelf.
Right now, Bai Feng only cared about the lives of the people in Hanzhong.
His goal was to raise the quality of life of the people in Hanzhong, and from there, gain more reputation points.
With reputation points, he would be able to achieve another breakthrough.
After all, after being controlled by the Taiping Art once, Bai Feng didn't want to touch it again.
After a simple treatment, Zhang Ning set off on his journey, slowly moving toward Hanzhong City where Bai Feng was.
