Cultivation Technique of the Great Witch

Chapter 16: Negotiate itinerary

When Zou Heng walked into the room, he saw that there were only two people sitting in the room, that is, His Royal Highness Li Sheng and King Ren.

Seeing Zou Heng coming in, King Ren stood up immediately, smiled and said to Zou Heng: "The mage is here, it's good to have a rest from last night to today!"

"Thanks to His Royal Highness Ren Wang for your concern, I had a good rest!" Zou Heng also smiled and said politely, and then he was greeted to sit down together.

"Haha, after the banquet last night, the Master went to another banquet to communicate with the two military mages in Anyuan Pass. I waited and saw some from a distance. If it was between the banquets last night, please The three wizards would just have a chat!" After Zou Heng sat down, King Ren mentioned his exchange with the two wizards last night.

Because they were relatively close, although they did not participate except the three warlocks, they still saw some scenes from a distance. In this Anyuan Pass, there are some people talking about it today.

"The cultivation of the two mages is far better than me. The reason why I chose to communicate with me after the banquet is because the two mages want to preserve my face and not make me too embarrassed." Zou Heng is very humble. He said, and at the same time, he was thinking about whether he should tell King Nen about the magic weapon. After all, the main purpose of the other party to give his own magic weapon should be to show his favor to King Nene.

"Master Zou is too modest. I know what your methods are. Compared with those two masters, that is, the cultivation time is a bit worse than them. Sooner or later, they will catch up."

"I called you over this afternoon to discuss with you. How should we go on the way to the royal capital next?"

Nioh smiled and praised Zou Heng again, and then he came to the point very much.

After a day's rest at Anyuan Pass, Nioh's originally weak body has recovered, so he naturally has to consider the safety of the next trip.

From Anyuan Pass to the royal capital, the road in the middle is not close. Although it is within the territory of Yu Kingdom, the danger is no less than when it was on the border.

When the topic was on the subject, Zou Heng did not continue to be humble, and directly turned his attention to Li Sheng.

As a general of the Yu Kingdom, Li Sheng had a more say in how he should take the next path than Ren Wang and Zou Heng.

King Ren has not returned to Yu Kingdom for many years. Even if he is familiar with his homeland, his memory is certainly not as clear as before. In addition, as the son of the country lord, when he was in Yu Kingdom, he was at most compared to the vicinity of the capital. Familiar, he hasn't been to other places much.

Zou Heng came to this world for about three years, and his understanding of Yu Kingdom was also very limited. Following his previous masters, he spent most of his time around a fixed area. In addition, he had to concentrate on studying art at that time. Knows even less.

Li Sheng also knew that the two might not know much about this, so he took the initiative to speak.

I saw that he first took out a map from his body, opened it and spread it on the table, then pointed to the map and started talking.

"From Anyuan Pass to the Royal Capital, we must first arrive at Yecheng. This is the largest city in our Yu Kingdom close to the border of Qi State. I can't get around when I go to the Royal Capital."

"After passing the city of Ye, continue on for two days, you can reach Yujiang. From here, you have a choice on the next road. You can choose to take the waterway, take a boat along the Yujiang River, all the way to Hanshan City, and finally go to The royal capital, you can also continue walking on the land, along the official road all the way, or go around a little further, over a large mountain range, and spend a little more time to reach the royal capital!"

Li Sheng gave a brief introduction, and by the way, he used his finger to make a slight gesture on the map for every route he said.

This is the first time Zou Heng has seen a map of this world. After all, in this world, a map is not something that can be seen everywhere. Even if an ordinary person has a map in his hand, it is a map of a region at most, or not so much. The detailed, more detailed maps are generally available only in official hands.

The map that Li Sheng is currently taking out is actually very detailed. Everything that should be shown on the map is clearly presented, and even the place names of various places are marked.

As small as the name of a village and the name of a mountain, they are all marked with very small words. There are almost no errors or omissions. It is more eye-catching to check.

Zou Heng estimated that the people who drew this map were probably from the likes of warlocks. It would be difficult for ordinary people to leave such small handwriting and draw everything so clearly.

After staring at the map carefully for a while, Zou Heng's brows gradually frowned. Just as Li Sheng said, they really only had these three options for their next trip to the capital.

Among them, the fastest is undoubtedly by water. This may also be the easiest. It takes about ten days to reach the capital.

However, the danger is too great to take the waterway. In the event of an attack, nine out of ten boats on board will not be able to keep it. If everyone falls into the water, it will be difficult to protect King Niu.

Moreover, by the waterway, most of the places you pass along the way are good attack locations on both sides of the strait. The number of times you encounter danger may be too many to defend yourself. It is really not a good choice.

If you are walking on land, whether to take the official road or detour, this is another problem. If no one notices the whereabouts of Nioh, detour may be a good choice. Avoid everyone's eyes and arrive in the royal capital quietly. , May not encounter too many dangers, but this is simply impossible.

From the time when King Ren returned to Yu Kingdom, the gaze on him would have been staring at him, and it would not allow him to get away from these gazes.

Zou Heng is now wondering if he can play a trick. Under his secret gaze, he thinks of a way to hide his gaze, and then he doesn't know if he feels that taking Niwang all the way down the road, maybe this can really be done.

As for the last choice, taking the official road, there is not much to say. The advantages and disadvantages are obvious. If you choose this road, you have to overcome all the difficulties and dangers all the way, and finally return to the capital. ,

Of course, if you choose to take the official road, no one will dare to make a big noise blatantly. This is also a good thing.

Zou Heng didn't say a word, and King Ren was thinking carefully about the pros and cons of these three paths.

From his own point of view, Nioh certainly hopes that he will return to the royal capital as soon as possible, so that he will not have to worry about it, and most of the things will be settled, so the waterway is undoubtedly the fastest, but he also knows that it is waterway. It is definitely the most unwise choice.

The official road is the safest on the surface, but it can also be dangerous. As for detouring from a small road, it is meaningless to avoid the eyeliner of others.

Taking all aspects into consideration, Nioh is still more inclined to follow the official road, at least this is the safest choice on the surface.

"Of the three roads mentioned by General Li, the official roads are undoubtedly more secure. I don't know if Master Zou has any other ideas, so let's listen to them!"

After thinking about it for a while, King Ren retracted his gaze from the map to speak. At the end of the conversation, he turned his attention to Zou Heng again, wanting to hear his thoughts.

Since Zou Heng and Li Sheng are called together today to prepare everyone to discuss together, then they have to listen to other people’s opinions and make a decision directly. You have to ask them how you say it, maybe they will have something else. Ideas can be more secure.

Hearing this, Zou Heng turned his gaze back and looked at Nioh and said, “It’s really safer on the surface to take the official road, but it may be subject to a lot of secret attacks. The other two roads will also not be very safe, so The specific path we take is determined by His Royal Highness Niu and General Li, but I think, to be on the safe side, we might as well do some suspicion and make us less visible!"

"What does the mage mean?" King Ren immediately asked after hearing Zou Heng's words.

He hadn't hoped that Zou Heng could give him any good advice, but he didn't expect that the other party really seemed to have some ideas, which made him a little surprised, and wanted to listen to him carefully talk about it.

Zou Heng glanced at Li Sheng, and then said: "I'm not a clever plan. I just feel that the whereabouts of His Royal Highness is too clear now, so that no matter which way you go, you will be vulnerable to those who have bad intentions. It’s better to use some imaginary and real means to make people unclear about the whereabouts of His Royal Highness, so that some secretly unruly people will not dare to act rashly."

"Take a step back, even if you can't hide the whereabouts of His Royal Highness, it would be a gain if you can test out some methods for His Royal Highness in advance."

Zou Heng did not clarify the specific method he planned to do, but only clarified his intention of proposing this method. After hearing his words, both Renwang and Li Sheng felt that it made sense, so Li Sheng Also nodded and said.

"His Royal Highness Niu's traces are really difficult to hide, but if you can induce some unruly people to prepare in advance, this is also a gain. Master Zou's method is good, but how to do it, I am afraid that you still have to look at the teacher. of!"

"This is natural, but I need some help!" Zou Heng nodded and said.

"What the mage needs, please don't hesitate to tell me, General Li and I will try our best to satisfy the mage!" King Ni hurriedly said.

From yesterday to today, King Ni was not in this Anyuan Pass for nothing. As a general guarding the border, Hong Yuechuan, the guardian of Anyuan Pass, is naturally the kind of general who is loyal to the lord of the country. Through private contact, Niwang is very I'm sure, if I put forward what I need now, as long as I can do it, the other party will satisfy myself.

Zou Heng was not polite either. His methods and the things that needed to be prepared could not be obtained by himself in a short time.

"Some materials are needed. I will make a list later and ask His Royal Highness Nioh to prepare it. In addition, one more important thing is needed."

"What is it?" Nioh asked.

"money!"
