spooky invasion

The biggest reliance of such a large bamboo mountain is the bamboo forests all over the mountains and plains. Without the cover of these dense bamboo forests, even if the mountain master was very capable, he wouldn't be able to pull off many tricks.

It has to be said that this method of removing salary from the bottom of the cauldron is indeed very cruel.

Shan Ye, who was already injured, desperately fled back to Zhushan. He wanted to hide in the formation to recover from his injuries before making other plans, but he didn't expect that the opponent would actually use this tactic to cut off the roots.

Looking at this bamboo-cutting posture, I am afraid that by dawn, all the bamboos in the huge bamboo mountain will be chopped down cleanly, and not a single one will be left.

By then, the formation will be completely exposed. And the restrictions he placed around the formation gate, without Zhushan as a support, even if they still retain some offensive and defensive functions, their power will definitely be greatly reduced. After all, these restrictions rely on the terrain and the endless bamboos of Zhushan to maximize the magic array.

Without the phantom formation, relying solely on those restrictions, the lethality would be limited after all. It may not be a big problem to resist the thirty or fifty people, but this wave contains thousands of people. Even if they use human lives to pile up, they can flatten his restrictions.

Master Shan felt secretly resentful, knowing that he had made a mistake. If you are not careful, you will lose everything!

In order to keep his identity secret and save trouble, he only trained the puppet Lao Wang to control the Yungu area. In the past, Lao Wang has always played this role very well.

He never expected that when something unexpected happened, Lao Wang, who usually obeyed his advice, would betray him without hesitation and lose control completely.

He, who was supposed to be the real behind-the-scenes boss of Wangqiao Base, instead became a loner. Before, he had ridiculed Xie Chun for being stupid and doing everything by himself, which resulted in most of his subordinates being mediocre and failing to develop the entire base very well. In the end, he was suppressed by the officials overnight.

He was complacent before, feeling that the way he controlled the puppets still allowed him to control the base very well, and that he could have a lot of time to practice without exposing his identity and arousing suspicion. At the same time, he can secretly maintain the formation and serve Master Shuzu.

Only now did Mr. Shan know that Xie Chun might be a little stupid at times, but he himself was not a smart person.

At least Xie Chun would not become such a loner no matter how passive he was.

Right now, Mr. Shan is indeed a little worried. He really wanted to calm down and recover from his injuries. Even if an injury like this is not fatal, it will definitely worsen if left untreated.

And to recover from this injury, even if he has Master Shuzu's secret book and has strong self-healing ability, it will take a day or two to fully recover.

But in just one hour, Lao Wang actually incited thousands of people, and they came to Zhushan with precise targets, and the method he adopted was to cut off the roots.

If these thousands of people are allowed to cut down the trees on Zhushan Mountain, Zhushan Mountain will become a bare barren mountain before dawn.

But he really doesn't have the ability to block it at the moment. With his injuries, if he blocks it forcefully, not only will it have no effect, but he will most likely be beaten to death.

"That's too cruel. This beast, Lao Wang, eats everything. I was blind at first, but I trusted him!" Mr. Shan would be lying if he said he didn't regret it.

He was indeed deceived by Lao Wang's usual respectful attitude. He thought that although Lao Wang was a bit of a wallflower, he was in awe of him and had long been impressed by his strength, and would never betray him.

This is also because Shan Ye is overconfident and thinks he can easily control Lao Wang.

Who would have expected that Lao Wang would turn his back on others faster than he could turn over a book. He turned around and bit back, slapped him down, and even called him an intruder. But he couldn't tell the difference yet.

Shan Ye would be lying if he said he wasn't feeling aggrieved. Especially when he saw a large number of people cutting down the bamboo forest and he was being exposed at an accelerated pace, this aggrievedness made him more and more angry.

There can be no further delay. If he continues to wait passively like this, once Zhushan is cut down too much, the formation will be exposed, and by then, he will no longer have any barrier.

Even if he can continue to escape, if the formation is exposed, he will inevitably be impacted or even destroyed. And this also means that he will live up to Lord Shuzu's instructions.

This is a failure that Mr. Shan cannot accept no matter what! Master Shuzu gave him great strength, awakened his powerful talent, and also gave him great temptation.

Like Xie Chun, Shanye is also a character who has been deeply brainwashed by the strange tree. He regarded the promises made by the strange tree as the highest pursuit in life.

Like other careerists, Shanye has huge ambitions. He also wants to prove to Master Shuzu that he is the most suitable agent and that he is stronger than Xie Chun.

Especially after Xie Chun's death, Master Shan wanted to prove his excellence even more and prove that he was more outstanding than Xie Chun. Now, it's all clearly going in the opposite direction.

How could everything that Mr. Shan had worked so hard to manage be destroyed so easily.

Healing? Master Shan knew that his injury must be treated, but it was impossible to give him this time in reality.

Kill the enemy?

Although Master Shan was very confident in his own strength, he was surrounded by thousands of people and he knew what the result would be.

He is not afraid of these awakened people in Wangqiao Base. After all, they are just a mob.

There is only one person he fears, and that is the mysterious scout who sneaked into the Wangqiao base tonight. It can be said that all the adversities Shan Ye is in now are caused by the other party.

In his own territory, being so plotted by the other party, Shan Ye was both ashamed and resentful. He didn't feel that he lost because of his strength, but because of his carelessness.

If I had been more vigilant, if I had been more clever, and not underestimated the enemy from the beginning, and pursued the opponent with all my strength, how could I have suffered such a big loss in the end?

But these regrets and these summaries are of no use.

To break the situation now, you must calm down and think of a countermeasure.

Of course, Master Shan had asked Master Shuzu for help, but Master Shuzu told him that if there were eight formations, if Master Shuzu had to take action in each of them, which one should he help?

No matter which sect you help, it is unfair to the other sects. Therefore, Master Shuzu put down his words, no matter how difficult or difficult it is, he must withstand it.

This is Lord Shuzu's assessment of each agent, and it is the ultimate assessment.

Although Master Shan felt that Lord Shuzu was a little unkind, he also knew that it was unrealistic to expect Lord Shuzu to charge into the battle in person.

Of course, Master Shan also sensed that Master Shuzu was indeed wary of the awakened people in Star City and was not willing to confront them head-on.

Thinking of this, Master Shan really wanted to give himself a big slap. As long as I usually spend some time rectifying the Wangqiao base, do it myself, and cultivate the strength of some close friends, I won't be so passive when things happen.

It's a pity that despite all the calculations, he didn't expect that the entire base would turn against him and come to the opposite side of him.

It’s also my fault that I usually believe too much in Zhushan’s restrictions, too much in Zhushan’s magical formations, but I forget that no matter how big and secretive Zhushan is, there are still huge flaws.

How to break the situation? How to break the situation? While Shanye was recovering from his injuries, he was thinking hard. No matter how passive he was, he naturally had no reason to accept his fate until the last moment. It's far from time to give up and admit defeat.

He believed that there would definitely be a way to defeat the enemy.

Nearly one-fifth of Zhushan's area has been exposed due to the massive felling by thousands of people. At this rate, I'm afraid it will be cut down to the edge of the formation in an hour or two. At that time, the phantom formations that rely on this bamboo forest will be destroyed as the bamboo forest is cut down, losing the role of the phantom formations.

What remained were only the earth-attribute forbidden defenses and attacks he had arranged. Those are purely expendable restrictions, which may hold down dozens or hundreds of people at a time, or even more.

But to say that there are thousands of people, given the strength of those restrictions, is definitely not enough. What's more, the opponent not only has the human sea tactics, but also the official awakened ones whose strength is not inferior to that of Shan Ye.

And now that he, Master Shan, has been injured again, let alone the official intruder, even an existence of Lao Wang's level may pose a threat to him.

Before the injury, he was definitely better than Lao Wang, but the injury narrowed the gap. In addition, his current situation is that he is under siege, but Lao Wang has the support of thousands of people behind him.

Lao Wang?

Master Shan suddenly had an idea. He vaguely seemed to have found some inspiration. Perhaps the breakthrough lies with Lao Wang?

The fact that these thousands of people could be mobilized was ultimately due to Lao Wang, but not to the intruder.

His current identity, Master Shan, is in an embarrassing situation and cannot be exposed.

But the other party is an official intruder, and the other party's identity is also shady.

In other words, it would be completely feasible if Lao Wang could be killed without anyone noticing, and then his puppets in the Xujia area and Xibian area could be found and asked to turn their guns and leave Zhushan.

That is to say, he is now huddled in Zhushan. If he is not injured, he leaves Zhushan and quickly targets the two puppets in the Xujia area and the Xibian area, asking them to climb up and call the people in these two areas back. Naturally, Gupian District lost two helpers, and its manpower was suddenly reduced by more than half. Even if they wanted to continue to run wild in Zhushan, the harm would not be that great.

If Lao Wang dies again, the military morale in Yungu area will be in chaos. Who will bother to cut down bamboo?

Thinking of this, Master Shan took a deep breath, tried to calm down his mind, and continued to deduce the feasibility of this plan.

Killing Lao Wang will deprive these thousands of people of the one who gives orders and shake their military morale. Then let the puppets from the Xibian area and Xujia area stand up and speak out to control the situation.

"Everything is still promising! The key lies in whether we can kill the scourge of Lao Wang!" Master Shan is now gnashing his teeth and hating Lao Wang.

Of course Lao Wang also knew that Master Shan must hate him deeply now. Ever since he stabbed him in the back, it meant that he had no way of turning back and had to follow the official path to the end. The wallflower definitely couldn't do it, and Master Shan definitely hated him to death.

Therefore, Lao Wang has been more active than ever and must show his sincerity in front of this beautiful official lady.

Of course, he was very careful and held a magic talisman in his hand. This was given to him by the official heroine before.

Although the other party didn't say that this magic talisman had any magical effects, he only said that it would save his life, just in case.

Lao Wang guessed that this talisman was probably not fake. When you hold it in your hand, you can clearly feel the powerful spiritual power surging, which is a very stable feeling.

"I've been working with Mr. Shan for so long, and he hasn't given me any favors. The official heroine is very generous. It seems that I have to perform well and try to get rid of the crime and meritorious service."

Thinking of this, Lao Wang directed the team harder and faster to cut down the bamboo forest.

If these people were to fight against the enemy, they might be timid and fearful. But cutting down these lifeless bamboos that won’t resist is not a difficult job, so there’s no reason not to perform well.

Therefore, among the thousands of people in the team, there really weren’t many people who were sneaky and procrastinating. Because cutting down bamboo is so easy, there is no need to fish. There is no point in fishing.

Precisely because no one was fishing and everyone was very motivated, large areas of bamboo in Zhushan continued to fall down, and open spaces were constantly being cleared.

Some people even suggested that it might be too laborious to clear the bamboo mountain, so it would be better to just burn it.

However, this proposal at the level of Crouching Dragon and Phoenix was quickly reviled by a lot of people.

The surrounding mountains are connected to mountains, and trees are connected to trees. If a fire really breaks out, once the fire spreads, the entire back mountain will probably be plunged into a sea of ​​flames.

The Wangqiao base is a village built on a mountain, surrounded by mountains on three sides and only facing water in the south. If it is burned with a fire, the entire base will be engulfed, and the entire base will become a roasted sweet potato.

Not to mention, for a moment, Jiang Ying was really tempted by this proposal. But she quickly suppressed this idea.

This idea is too poisonous and cruel. Once the fire breaks out and spreads over several hills, it cannot be controlled by one person.

Many people in Wangqiao Base may have died innocently, but there must be many innocent people in the base. These people are not guilty enough to die.

Besides, according to this cutting speed, this bamboo mountain will definitely be cut down before dawn. When the time comes, wherever the formation is hidden, there will be nowhere to hide.

No matter what, it only takes three to five hours. If you set fire to it, the mountain fire may not stop for days and nights, but it may delay time.

Therefore, Jiang Ying also secretly warned Lao Wang not to adopt such a radical method.

In fact, Lao Wang didn't want to use such a radical method at all. He was worried that Jiang Ying would force him. After receiving Jiang Ying's warning, Lao Wang felt relieved, thinking that he was an official after all, so he didn't think so radically about the problem. If it were Shan Ye, if setting a fire was useful, Shan Ye would definitely order the fire without hesitation.

Just when Lao Wang was secretly rejoicing, a strong vibration suddenly surged from the ground, and the ground in the surrounding area of ​​100 meters suddenly shook.

Puff puff puff!

Deep underground, countless stone cones as sharp as knives burst out of the earth crazily and plunged towards the ground in a covering style. For a moment, there were screams.
