"Where do you think the assassin is most likely to be hiding?" Wu Zhongyuan asked.

Wang Xinran pondered and then said, "This person fired two shots during the day at ten o'clock in the morning and two in the afternoon. If the third shot followed a four-hour interval, it should have been at six in the evening. If the fourth shot was fired, The gun should have been fired at ten o'clock in the evening. There were a large number of torches around the city, indicating that people in the city were searching for this person. This also indirectly showed that the sniper probably fired the fourth shot. Otherwise, the people in the city would not We went out of the city to search during this time, so I feel like this person should still be near the city."

"It makes sense." Wu Zhongyuan nodded slowly.

Wang Xinran added, "It is now around 11 o'clock in the evening. Even if this person leaves immediately after firing the last shot, in a wild environment like this, he can only go seven to eight miles in an hour at most."

"You mean the eight miles around the city is the dangerous area?" Wu Zhongyuan asked.

"Yes, we should be safe before entering this range." Wang Xinran nodded.

Wu Zhongyuan didn't say anything more, and stretched out his arms to hug Wang Xinran. This place was still a hundred miles away from Lianshan City. It took too long to walk, so he could only use his body skills.

Wang Xinran knew what Wu Zhongyuan was going to do, so he did not refuse and allowed Wu Zhongyuan to fly quickly under the forest with him in his arms.

Not long after, the two came within ten miles of the city. Since today was the end of the month, there was no light from the dark moon, and the surroundings were pitch black. The light of the torch closest to the two was eight miles away. Due to limited knowledge, people at this time could not imagine They didn't realize how terrifying the range of this hidden weapon that could kill people was, so they just searched based on the farthest range of the bow and arrow.

"What to do now?" Wu Zhongyuan asked. He had never fought against a sniper, had no experience, and had no clue.

"You don't have to do anything, just go back the way you came," Wang Xinran said. "The enemy doesn't know that I have arrived. If you show up, the enemy will guess that I am nearby. Go back and kill this discharged puppy." Take it too."

"Throw yourself here?" Wu Zhongyuan frowned.

Wang Xinran looked around with his gun in hand, "Can you help me by staying here?"

Wu Zhongyuan was at a loss for words. He was a Taixuan cultivator with clear ears and eyes, but no matter how sharp his senses were, he could not see as far as a sniper rifle scope. In addition, he could also sense living creatures within a hundred feet around him. But this distance is also within the opponent's range.

"How can you find this sniper?" Wu Zhongyuan asked.

Wang Xinran shook his head, "There is no other way but to try your luck. If you come back in three days, we will still meet here."

"Are you kidding?" Wu Zhongyuan shook his head repeatedly, "I will not leave you here. This person must not stay. He must be killed at all costs. You go up to the limelight to hide the ambush. I will try to force this person come out."

"What do you want to do?" Wang Xinran asked.

"Set fire," Wu Zhongyuan said in a deep voice, "Aren't snipers good at hiding their whereabouts? I will burn all the woods around the city to see where this guy can hide."

After Wu Zhongyuan finished speaking, he walked away without waiting for Wang Xinran to answer. He did not take Huang Mao'er away, but Huang Mao was given by God to protect Wang Xinran.

The two were originally located due east of Lianshan. Wu Zhongyuan went around to the south of the city, took a deep breath, raised his breath and spoke, "I am Wu Zhongyuan, the Yellow Emperor of the Central Plains. I was shocked to hear that Prince Jiang was attacked, and I came here to arrest the murderer. All the warriors of Lianshan listen to me. The order was given to close the city gate tightly and prohibit anyone from entering or exiting. All the warriors immediately left the city, surrounded them for nine miles, set fire to the mountain, and tried to destroy large tracts of trees, but also to put the murderer to death."

After Wu Zhongyuan shouted, the warriors who were searching shouted in response, and at the same time, they quickly moved around.

There are hundreds of warriors in Xiong City. In addition to the warriors in this city, there are also high-level warriors who came from the big wall cities after hearing the news. In less than three minutes, the high-level warriors were in their respective positions.

Most of the people holding torches were ordinary soldiers, and they were also moving quickly to the outside.

Wu Zhongyuan once again raised his spirits and ordered, "One person ten feet tall, set fires on all sides, and wait and see. If someone is attacked, immediately sound the alarm and inform the location."

Jiang Zheng was assassinated and everyone in the Niu tribe was angry and sad. They listened to his order and immediately obeyed it. There were many dead trees and dry grass in the mountains. The winter was dry and the grass and trees were flammable. It didn't take long for flames to appear everywhere. After a while, the fire became more and more intense. .

The wind was blowing from the south today. Not only were the cattle warriors on the south side setting fires, but they were also setting fires on the east, west, and north sides. Their purpose was to remove cover and obstacles to ensure that the murderer could not escape.

At this time, warriors of all ranks in the city and soldiers holding torches were already in position, consolidating the encirclement from nine miles away. While defending, they were cutting down and moving trees around the fire scene to prevent the wildfire from spreading out of control.

Worried that Wang Xinran would be accidentally injured by the warriors of the Ox Tribe, Wu Zhongyuan once again raised his voice and said, "Those wearing black fur and yellow dogs are friendly forces, so be sure not to accidentally injure him."

Nine miles in radius is a very large area, not nine miles in diameter, but nine miles in all directions of the city. Burning so much woodland will definitely bring a lot of inconvenience to the lives of everyone with bears in the future, but this move also has another benefit, that is, he originally He wanted to expand the cultivated area in various cities, and the burned forests could be reclaimed as cultivated land in the coming year.

In fact, setting fire to the mountain is a very stupid way, and the price paid is also very high. It is similar to fishing in the lake, directly draining the water of the pond, and you are not afraid of not catching this man-eater. However, although this method is clumsy, it is very effective, like this Only Wu Zhongyuan has the authority to issue a major order to burn a large area of ​​forest.

After a while, fire shot into the sky and flames were everywhere. Jiang Nan and Jiang Dahua left the city and followed the sound to find Wu Zhongyuan.

Before the two men arrived, Wu Zhongyuan had already cut down two big trees as cover. When he saw the two men arriving, he hurriedly pulled them behind the trees to prevent them from being attacked by snipers.

Jiang Nan was wearing a plain white dress and her face was full of sadness. When she saw Wu Zhongyuan, she felt sad in her heart and lowered her head and choked with sobs.

Wu Zhongyuan patted Jiang Nan's shoulder and sighed to comfort him, "Please forgive me and accept the change. Even if I travel thousands of miles across the country today, I will never let the murderer escape."

Jiang Nan nodded sadly.

Wu Zhongyuan turned to look at Jiang Dahua, "Did anyone be killed in attacks during Youshi and Haishi?"

"Yes," Jiang Dahua nodded, "the one who was assassinated in the Youshi period was a harem maid, and died in the north courtyard. The one who was assassinated in the Haishi period was a cave god warrior, and died on the east wall. The wounds were all on his head, the same as the prince's."

Wu Zhongyuan nodded slowly. Wu Junyue had previously described the situation of the assassinated guard. The bullet penetrated from the left temple and flew out from the right temple. At that time, the warrior was going up the steps. This shows that the sniper was It was shot from Xishan.

The third person to be assassinated was the palace maid in the north courtyard, and the fourth person to be assassinated was the warrior guarding the city wall on the east side. From this, we can infer the assassin's movement trajectory, which was from west to north and then east.

It has only been an hour since the assassin shot the East Wall Warrior. No matter how fast the assassin ran, he could not escape from the nine-mile encirclement. The assassin should currently be in one of the northeast, due east, and southwest places, either very close to him or far away from Wang Xinran. Very close...
