The strength of the six bears is a powerful secret weapon. No matter who the enemy is, they must be determined to kill by mobilizing so many troops and exposing their trump card.

But the results did not seem to be what they expected.

The question is, who are they here to kill?

Jiang Ke'er stroked her chin and already had a guess.

While asking questions, she helped the officers and soldiers on the ground and the inn servants to stop the bleeding and provide treatment.

In addition to the above information, she also heard some interesting news.

For example, "Southern Xinjiang is simply crazy."

"Many imperial officials were attacked by assassins from southern Xinjiang."

"Most of the merchants died in southern Xinjiang before they could reach Pu'er."

"There are a lot of strange people from southern Xinjiang in Shu recently."

And, the last piece of news that surprised Jiang Keer quite a bit - "Mr. Di Renjie, the Chief Justice of the Dali Temple, has disappeared."

Di Renjie?

The legendary number one detective in the Tang Dynasty? Di Ge Lao, Di Pang Pang?

disappeared?

"What's going on? Are you all right?"

Li Niu finally brought his men over, moved away the spiked stakes and entered the post station, and asked anxiously.

"It's okay, the attacker has left," Jiang Ke'er replied, "Everyone only suffered superficial injuries, and no signs of poisoning or poisoning have been found so far."

"That's good," Li Niu breathed a sigh of relief, and subconsciously glanced at the fat man in black again, then said, "I've asked my men to go back to the capital to contact the government. Let's rest here for one night, and we should be able to set off normally tomorrow when reinforcements arrive."

"Are you still going? Are you going to die?" The less seriously injured officers and soldiers sat up and stared at Li Niu in disbelief. "Those are six bears! They even dared to attack the post station. How dare you go into the mountains?"

"We have to go." Li Niu smiled bitterly. "Someone has to use this trade route. If the trade route is cut off, the connection between the Tang Dynasty and Southern Xinjiang... and even the entire Nanzhao Kingdom and the Western Regions will be cut off. If some bad guys take the opportunity to interfere, the situation will be bad."

The officers and soldiers were stunned when they heard this.

"I never thought that a small businessman like you would still care about the country and the people, and think further than a soldier like me."

"Hey, I don't deserve it, I just understand that it's nice to stay under a big tree," Li Niu smiled naively, "If the tree falls, we'll all be out of work, right? Besides, I'm really short of money, and I'm putting all my belongings on this order."

"Yeah, that's right. It's not easy for you small business owners on the trade route," the officer nodded in recognition. "But what if you really run into those six bears... one of them would be enough for you."

Li Niu's brows were suddenly twisted into a knot, and it was obvious that he had no idea how to deal with the situation.

"I can try," Jiang Ke'er said suddenly.

Li Niu, the fat man in black, and the surrounding guys and soldiers all looked at her in surprise.

This frail little girl, with no tendons or calluses...what was she trying to do? To seduce the six-headed bear?

"You said that you heard the sound of a flute when you were attacked?" Jiang Ke'er asked.

"Yes," all the officers and soldiers nodded, "We are sure we heard the sound of the flute. The sound was very strange, intermittent, and it didn't form a song at all."

Jiang Keer nodded and smiled: "It doesn't form a song, the scales are not connected, that's because different scales represent different instructions."

"What do you mean?" The officers and soldiers were confused.

"These bears are obviously trained, just like the dogs you keep at home," Jiang Keer explained. "You tell them to sit down, and they sit down obediently. It's not because they have learned human language, but because they remember the scale of the word 'sit down' and formed a conditioned reflex."

"so what?"

"So," Jiang Ke'er took off the long flute on her belt and shook it with a smile.

"Maybe I can make them listen to me."

14. Light Grip

It is not easy to counter-control a well-trained brown bear.

They can kill a person with just a slap. If a real fight breaks out, the situation will be extremely tense and there will be no extra time for trial and error.

If you play a scale wrong, something bad might happen.

So while the other members of the caravan were resting, Jiang Ke'er gathered a group of wounded soldiers overnight.

Li Niu and the fat man in black were also watching.

"What are you going to do?" Captain Li Niu asked her curiously.

Jiang Ke'er smiled faintly and said, "There are many types of Xiaos. Xiaos of different tunes will produce different sounds. I have to experiment first to find the corresponding type of Xiao."

She had to find the corresponding tune as soon as possible while the memories of these wounded soldiers had not faded, confirm the type of flute used by the other party, and then she could start to decipher the scale.

"No, it's even lower than the previous one." Several wounded soldiers said firmly.

"Is it lower than this?"

Jiang Ke'er put down the D-key flute in her hand and nodded.

It seems that the bear controller is using a rare C-key flute, which sounds deeper and more desolate than an ordinary flute.

This was not unexpected.

The deeper the sound, the lower the vibration frequency, and the lower the frequency, the farther it travels.

If a bear controller wants to control the bear army to fight from a distance, he should try to use deep sounds with stronger transmission capabilities.

However, the major C flute is huge in size, longer than a sword, and about one meter long. It can be called the giant among flutes, and even my small hands cannot hold it.

The materials for making it were also very difficult to find, and Jiang Ke'er didn't know if she could make a flute of corresponding specifications overnight.

"Is there a bamboo forest nearby?" Jiang Ke'er asked, because she needed bamboo to make a big flute.

The wounded soldiers all looked troubled and fell into deep thought.

They racked their brains but could not think of any bamboo forest nearby.

"I remember there seemed to be a bamboo forest on the mountain," a wounded soldier said hesitantly, "I don't remember it clearly, but I went up the mountain in a daze when I was drunk, and I seemed to see a small bamboo forest. I don't know if it is still there now, maybe it has been eaten by the Pixiu."

"Do you still remember the direction?" Jiang Ke'er looked at him.

"Girl, don't listen to him. How can you trust a drunkard's words?" The wounded soldier next to him interrupted, "Even if there is, it's pitch dark and wild animals are roaming around. How can you take the risk of going up the mountain? Besides, there's no guarantee that there will be any."

"It's better to go up the mountain and give it a try. Otherwise, we'll just have to fight six bears, or maybe more."

Jiang Keer looked at the fat man in black as she spoke. She guessed that this guy was the real boss in charge of the caravan.

However, Li Niu blocked her view and asked Jiang Ke'er seriously, "How confident are you? Is there really a way to control those ferocious bears?"

"It's hard to say how sure we are. It depends on how well you remember it." Jiang Ke'er didn't make any rash promises. "As long as you remember it correctly and can identify the correct scale, then we will be 100% sure."

Li Niu still looked incredulous and was amazed at what Jiang Ke'er said.

For those who have been on the business road for a long time, they know how ferocious and terrifying these brown bears are, so it is completely unimaginable that Jiang Keer can deal with them with the sound of the flute.

And six of them in one go.

However, considering that these six monsters may still be wandering around, they are not tough guys that can be dealt with by a slide tackle followed by a series of combos in anger.

If we continue to move forward, there is a high probability that we will encounter them, and there will be heavy casualties.

Therefore, even if they were hesitant in their hearts, they had no choice but to choose to believe Jiang Keer. At least this increased their chances of survival.

Li Niu glanced at the fat man in black again, and after seeing him nod, he said, "You can give it a try. I can ask my friends to go up the mountain to help you find it."

"That's good. There's strength in numbers," Jiang Ke'er agreed with the other party's decision. "I'll prepare sachets for everyone later. With these sachets, we don't have to worry about those deadly poisonous insects and snakes at night."

"There is such a good thing?" Everyone looked at Jiang Ke'er in surprise.

"The Liang Chamber of Commerce is lucky to have you." Li Niu laughed. "You may not know how hateful the bugs in this mountain are. Even spices and essential oils can't drive them away. They chase after people and pounce on them. I wish I could wipe out their nest."

Jiang Keer smiled and said that she could imagine it.

"But we still can't prevent tigers, leopards, bears and bears. Everyone must bring torches and stay alert at all times," she warned. "Although this place is close to the post station and there are not many wild tigers and leopards, there are still those six bears. If you see one, blow the whistle to notify everyone."

The purpose of blowing the whistle is not to remind teammates to rescue, but to remind teammates to escape to avoid additional casualties.

Death on the trade route is a common occurrence, and anyone who dares to come here will have their head hung on their belt.

If he dies, the captain will give his family a high pension.

"I remember it was on a low hill in the northwest. You guys go check it out." The soldier said the location nervously, "I really can't remember it. Don't blame me if you can't find it."

"It will be found."

Jiang Ke'er is somewhat confident because the conditions here are suitable for growing bamboo.

Moreover, bamboo grows very fast and has a strong reproductive capacity. Once it grows, it can form a large patch and is not easy to completely eliminate.

"In this weather, maybe I can dig some spring bamboo shoots." Jiang Ke'er swallowed her saliva, "By the way, I'm a little hungry..."

"..."

Everyone was speechless at Jiang Keer's unconventional thinking that showed she felt no pressure at all.

You're still thinking about eating in such a situation. You're really careless. Aren't you afraid that you'll become someone else's dinner?

"Okay, here, the sachet."

Jiang Ke'er quickly mixed several herbs together, put them in a bag and handed them to everyone: "Let's go."

Going up the mountain at night is very dangerous, and Li Niu certainly won't let Jiang Keer walk all the way alone.

So he asked "Qiao Qianxue", who seemed to have the most reliable ability, to set out together with Jiang Ke'er to protect her.

——Well, that makes sense and makes sense.

Qiao Qianxue was obviously very satisfied with this distribution.

Especially when she saw Jiang Ke'er looking pale and shivering in the dark forest.

Courage has always been based on strength.

She was not afraid of anything before, because she was strong enough to defy heaven and earth, and because she could see through everything in the darkness with just a sweep of her spiritual sense.

But now, she was facing complete darkness.

It was a dark forest where even the starlight could not penetrate. It seemed as if a hazy smoke was shrouding her in front of her. He opened his dark green eyes in the darkness and stared at her back.

The entire forest opened its bloody mouth to her, waiting for her to walk in naively.

It had been a long time since she had experienced this feeling of being in the dark.

Everything around is unknown, as if there is danger hidden behind every tree.

This feeling was much more exciting than going to the toilet in a strange place in the middle of the night, and there was no quilt for her to curl up in and shiver.

Fortunately, the person next to her gently held her hand.

The perfect temperature and warm feeling coming from the other person's hand.

"Don't be afraid, I'm here."

15. Jiang Keer's Relationship Guidance Lesson

The light from the torch illuminated the half-face that was slightly exposed under the lees.

Feeling the warmth from the palm of her hand, Jiang Ke'er suddenly shuddered from the tips of her ears to the tip of her tail, and she felt an electric shock all over her body.

"Who... who is scared!"

She said this viciously, but inadvertently tightened the hand of the person next to her.

"Yes, yes, you're not afraid. You're the bravest." Qiao Qianxue smiled wickedly, "Then why are you holding on so tightly?"

"I was afraid that you would be scared!" Jiang Ke'er puffed out her chest and answered with a clear conscience, "How is it? Are you feeling better now that I'm holding on?"

"...Okay," Qiao Qianxue held her forehead with her hand, "I was really scared just now, but I feel much better after you caught me."

"That's good!"

After getting the answer, Jiang Ke'er suddenly became more righteous and held her hand even tighter.

But her ears, which were erected high and moving around vigilantly, still betrayed her fear.
