Chapter 167
When the Yaohuang heard that I was asking about this, he felt relieved, and hurriedly kowtowed to me: "Return to the master, the subordinates have already ordered people to go to explore the way, but they have not returned."

The Demon Emperor is indeed a lake. These things are actually the most basic marching essentials. It is natural to send people to explore the way, but why haven't the people he sent come back? Are those houses still far away from us?If that was the case, I would faint to death. Although there are many of us, the walking speed will be slower than that of one person, but according to our walking speed, it is only three miles, and we have walked for more than an hour. It's been about two hours, even if I haven't reached it, it's not far away. After I read this, I couldn't help but glanced at the Demon Emperor again, and asked unconsciously, "How long has it been since the person you sent?"

Hearing this, the Demon Emperor turned his head to think for a moment, and then replied: "I sent three groups of people to scout the way. I sent the batch a moment ago, and I told them to use fireworks to announce as soon as they found those houses, but the first batch has gone for so long and there is no reply, and I am also wondering about this."

Although there are no PP machines, no mobile phones, no telephones, and no telegrams in this era, the communication speed of fireworks is also very fast, but those scouts went there for an hour and didn't hear back. It's really depressing. I was thinking about it. About this matter, suddenly a waiting guard came striding forward, I looked at his badge, it said team captain.

Because the journey out of the palace is far away, in order to facilitate the management of so many subordinates, I divided them into several teams, each with 100 people, and divided them into eight teams, and each team has a captain and a deputy. Captain, it’s convenient to manage their subordinates, because these subordinates are not an integer number, there are 830 seven people in total, so except for the eight team members, I will hand over the other 37 people to the management of the demon emperor, just responsible for scouting and running errands Ah, anyway, it is used for doing odd jobs, but even so, the martial arts of these eight hundred people are all on the same level, there is no distinction between high and low, it's just that the division of labor is different.

The first team is the front of the team, which is the leader of the entire procession, and the second team, the third team, and so on, and the eighth team at the end of the team, and the more than 100 boatmen are divided by me. In the middle of the team, there are four teams protecting the front and back, so they are quite safe in the middle.

And the candidates for the captain and vice-captain of the eight teams were also recommended by themselves. Martial arts and leadership skills are very popular in the team, so I feel relieved to hand over the team to them.

I looked at the panicked captain of the first team, and felt an ominous premonition in my heart for some reason. Before I could speak, he quickly came to the side of the Demon Emperor, punched me, and said, "Your Highness, your subordinate There is something urgent to report."

Looking at them like that, I knew it was not a good thing, I frowned slightly, waved to him and asked: "Don't be a mother-in-law, tell me quickly if you have something to say."

When he heard my question, his expression became serious: "Returning to Your Highness, my subordinates felt that this mountain road was weird half an hour ago, so they made some marks on the ground and among the chaotic rocks. Back to the place we arrived at a moment ago, that is to say, we are going around in a circle, as if we have been trapped in some kind of maze, and we can't get out."

As soon as he finished speaking, the Demon Emperor and I glanced at each other at the same time, and I found that the Demon Emperor's eyes also began to look serious, and I wondered why the person he sent out hadn't heard back for so long. not going.

"I see, you go to the front and let the troops stop first, and I will make plans later." I waved to the captain of the first team and motioned him to stop the team from moving forward. In addition to playing the role of vanguard protection, it can also convey the order to prohibit the team from advancing. This is specially arranged by me because of the large number of people. If I just yell to stop in the sedan chair, the people in front and behind will probably listen. I didn't get my order, so I handed over the command of this order to the first team. They have a huge flag in their hands. As long as they wave it, the whole team can see it, and it will stop immediately.

As soon as I gave the order, the captain of the first team immediately ran to the front, looked at his back, and said to the Demon King, "Do you think this is man-made?"

The Demon Emperor thought for a while, and Dang even replied: "We have been walking for so long, if the captain of the first team hadn't reminded me that even I didn't realize that we were going around in circles, if the terrain was naturally formed, I'd have heard of it. The particularity will definitely be passed on, but I have never heard that there will be a maze here, so my subordinates think that this must be someone who specifically wants to trap us here, and this person may be near us. "

The Jianghu is really dangerous. When the Demon Emperor said this, I felt a little excited. I never thought that the first time I officially left the palace, I would be ambushed by people in the Jianghu, and they would even use a terrain psychedelic array on me. , It’s really interesting, I licked the corner of my mouth, and secretly searched for strange auras in the surrounding area for miles around, but found nothing. , It seems that he is also searching with his heart, but after he opened his eyes, he glanced at me, then shook his head, it seems that he didn't find any strange aura, this is really strange, I have heard of this before This kind of man-made psychedelic formation, the operator must be around the formation, but there are no strangers within a few miles, it seems that the operator is a master.

However, the breath of the three batches of scouts sent by the Demon Emperor could not be found. It seems that they may no longer be alive, which is a pity, but even if the envoys are not around, it means that there are two possibilities.

The first is that the envoy can hide his internal strength, and his martial arts has surpassed me by more than five times, because only those who surpass me so many times hide their internal strength so I won't find Banhao, otherwise, even if the other party is twice as strong as me , I will also find some clues, but since the person who came is coming for our team, either he is a robber, or he is coming for me, but the first one is the most likely, because I am the first one. Once out of the palace, there is no enemy now, the other party can't be targeting me, of course, except Taoyuan Palace and the second prince's subordinates, but these two forces have not moved, and I have dealt with people from Taoyuan Palace, It stands to reason that their way of doing things should not trap me in this way, and the second prince is even worse. His power outside the palace has been controlled by the third lady, so the only possibility now is that the other party is a robber. I want to grab some money, but if the other party's martial arts is more than five times that of mine, why come to be a robber, and the demon emperor is a veteran of many people in the world, there is such a person, he has never heard of it, so he ruled out this One point, it shows that the envoys are not my enemies, nor are they martial arts masters who are more than five times stronger than me.

So now the only possibility is that the emissary is more than two miles away from us, but it is difficult for me to search if it is more than two miles away, because the eight towns of Wugui are within this range, and the people there live in My eyes are full of strange auras, so it will be troublesome to find a fascinator.

When I was thinking hard about a strategy, the whole team stopped suddenly, and it seemed that I was going to find this messenger to find the killer.
