Chapter 244 Trap

"Look, that's the small wooden cabin." Gu Fei introduced the ultimate goal of their trip to the other three comrades.

"Drunk Bro, you said there would be danger here?" Huo Qiu looked around.

"Definitely." Gu Fei nodded affirmatively. The information that Shuxia Wangtian had sent someone to reveal to him clearly indicated that people from Caiyun Jian had already intervened here. And Han Jia Gongzi was now mixing with these people. With his methods, how could he not take advantage of such an opportunity? There was also Shuxia Wangtian, pretending to be a good person. Although this person's guild was small, his ambitions were quite big. He even dared to compete with large guilds like Duijiu Dange and Caiyun Jian. Who knew where he was hiding, peeping!

"Xiao Liu, it's dangerous here. Quickly grab my hand." Huo Qiu said seriously to Liuxia.

The three of them glanced at him together. Liuxia smiled and said, "It's okay, I'm not afraid."

"Really? But I'm very scared. Give me some strength!" Huo Qiu said.

"Do you want a kick?" Gu Fei said. Huo Qiu was really getting more and more presumptuous.

"Are you looking for death, kid!" Xiyao Wu didn't want to give him any more face and asked with a serious expression.

Huo Qiu finally realized that he was going too far and quickly explained, "No, no, I saw the atmosphere was a bit tense, so I was just joking to lighten things up. Since you all don't like it, I won't joke next time."

Everyone took a deep breath. Huo Qiu's shamelessness was of another kind. It was truly... shameless.

"Alright, let's get down to business!" Gu Fei said.

"There are so many tall reeds here, it's too easy to hide people. You can't tell how many ambushes there are at all," Liuxia analyzed the situation.

"We might already be surrounded," Gu Fei said.

"It's hard to tell friend from foe! Who knows if the people hiding in the grass are ambushes or loving couples." Huo Qiu was finally able to say something sensible.

"Just in case, you can use magic to clear the area! Anyway, there's no loss if people die now," Xiyao Wu was quite self-centered and didn't really care about people who weren't related to her.

"That's not good!" Gu Fei still couldn't bring himself to do such a thing.

"Ouch!" Huo Qiu suddenly shouted and quickly turned around. "Something's up!"

The other three also turned around vigilantly, but behind them, there was nothing but lush reeds. Huo Qiu pointed to the back of his head and asked, "Was I hit by an arrow?"

"No," the three of them said.

"Then what hit me?" Huo Qiu was very puzzled. He looked down and found that there was indeed something. A wad of paper had fallen at his feet. Huo Qiu picked it up and found that the paper was wrapped around something. He quickly opened it and found a stone. He carefully studied it but couldn't see what kind of deadly weapon this stone was.

"Maybe someone... uh, was being careless!" Liuxia said. After all, this was a gathering place for couples. It was possible that a couple was flirting, throwing things at each other, and accidentally hit Huo Qiu.

"Wait, the paper in your hand..." Gu Fei noticed a problem.

Huo Qiu's attention was all on the stone. Hearing Gu Fei's reminder, he quickly picked up the paper and looked at it. The paper wasn't blank. It was covered with circles and crosses, drawing things that were unknown. Huo Qiu looked at it horizontally and vertically, but he didn't understand it. He handed it to Gu Fei and said, "Take a look."

Gu Fei took it and looked at it, also feeling confused. Xiyao Wu couldn't make heads or tails of it either. However, Liuxia was the first to react. He pointed to the square in the middle of the circle, which was filled with a string of numbers, and said, "Look, this, isn't this the small wooden cabin! These numbers are coordinates."

"Oh?" Everyone paid attention to the coordinates under their feet, then visually estimated the small wooden cabin. Except for Yutian Shenming, who couldn't distinguish between east and west, the others could more or less see that the direction of the wooden cabin was indeed roughly the coordinates of this value.

"I understand, these circles and crosses around it refer to the layout around the wooden cabin! Look here, there's also a side note, fs3, which probably means that there are three mages in this place. Here it's zs4, four warriors, dz is thief, ms is priest, and Qs is knight. These are all commonly used job abbreviations on the forum." Liuxia finally completely interpreted this broken paper.

"Damn, so it's someone sending us information. Who's so kind?" Huo Qiu was surprised.

"Shuxia Wangtian?" Gu Fei guessed. He couldn't think of any other possibility.

"Maybe it's fake?" Liuxia said.

"Whether it's true or false, we'll know if we try it. If we're at this position, there will be an ambush in this direction. However, there's no indication of what kind of profession it is. Maybe the other party didn't investigate it too clearly. I'll go take a look," Gu Fei said.

"What about us?" the other three said.

"You guys hide here first! According to the picture drawn on this map, the opponent has quite a few ambushes. We also have to take advantage of these reeds to act quietly," Gu Fei said.

"Drunk Bro, go quickly!" Huo Qiu nodded.

"I'm going." Gu Fei picked up his sword, hunched over, and hid his body in the reeds, heading towards the chosen target. In addition to marking the coordinates of the small wooden house on the paper, there were no other coordinate annotations in other places. After all, the paper wasn't big, and he couldn't write too much. The ambushes drawn might have some errors. Gu Fei could only roughly judge by direction. He wasn't afraid of bumping into three or five people, even if he accidentally ran into them directly.

Huo Qiu, who was guarding, was very excited. He didn't get the chance to be alone with a man and a woman, but now he was actually going to drill into the reeds with one man and two women. Which guy who came to Yun Jiao Lakeside had his style? If the news wasn't blocked now, Huo Qiu really wanted to tell the guys in the Flowers Forever group about his situation. However, because he had just been threatened before, Huo Qiu didn't dare to tease rashly. He only dared to yy in his heart for the time being. As a result, he heard Xiyao Wu say to Liuxia, "There are many opponents, so we should be more careful."

"Yeah, let's stealth!" Liuxia said.

Xiyao Wu nodded. The two girls activated stealth together and disappeared.

"Hey!" Huo Qiu panicked when he saw that he was suddenly left alone.

"What are you shouting for? I'm next to you!" Xiyao Wu said in the air.

"Do we have to stealth?" Huo Qiu burst into tears. In this state, even if there were a thousand girls by his side, it would be the same as having nothing!

"Safety first, don't make noise," Xiyao Wu said.

"What should I do then?" Huo Qiu said.

"If you're very idle, dig a hole and bury yourself!" Xiyao Wu said.

"Pfft..." Liuxia also chuckled lightly. Huo Qiu was depressed, but he really had nothing to do, so he simply lay on the ground and said, "Okay, I'll dig a hole."

Gu Fei approached the target, approached, approached. Then, he felt that he had gone too far, too far, even further.

No, there were no ambushes drawn on the paper on the route he had taken. However, Gu Fei didn't have Han Jia Gongzi's talent for reading coordinates from the map. He felt that he might have gone astray, so he changed direction again. This time, he was heading towards a relatively dense area. Gu Fei believed that even if he didn't walk quite right, there would always be some disturbance. So he began to move in this direction again.

Approaching, approaching, and approaching again, too far, too far, and too far again.

Gu Fei finished another series of walks, but there was still no one. He felt that something was wrong. He was already very close to the small wooden cabin. Even if this information was false, the people lying in ambush should have noticed him. Why wasn't there any movement?

Gu Fei quickly sent a message to Xiyao Wu and the other two, "How are you guys? This is a bit strange."

"What's so strange?" Xiyao Wu and the other three were fine. The hole dug by Huo Qiu could already bury his knees.

"I walked around, but there's no one. Even if this information is false, it seems like there's no ambush," Gu Fei said.

"Should we come over?" Xiyao Wu asked.

Gu Fei hesitated. He was only good at single-soldier combat. Now that he had a four-person team, Xiyao Wu, who had no ideas, asked him. Where would he get any ideas?

"Wait first." Gu Fei could only answer like this. He carefully looked around again. Suddenly, he discovered the hillside behind him. Yun Jiao Lakeside wasn't a lake in the plains, but surrounded by mountains on three sides. The first time he came here, that kid Yutian Shenming launched an attack from the hillside from a high position. In the same plane, the reeds were a good disguise. What if it was on the hillside from a high position?

"Not good!!!" Gu Fei didn't forget that a certain artifact was still in Han Jia Gongzi's hands. The telescope, something that shouldn't have appeared, had played a key role in many battles. Hiding in the reeds to move around like this might not be easily detected from a distance at level 30, but now, the archers had Eagle Eye, and Han Jia Gongzi had a telescope. From a high position, they could have been noticed when the four of them entered Yun Jiao Lakeside. After that, Gu Fei's single-soldier action, with a telescope, was enough to track him all the way.

The ambushes on the paper weren't necessarily wrong. However, the picture was dead, and people were alive. The other party, from a high position, clearly grasped Gu Fei's movement and could make adjustments. Perhaps even the person drawing the picture didn't expect this.

"You guys flash first!" Gu Fei quickly sent a message to the three of them.

"What's wrong?" the three asked.

"We might already be surrounded." Gu Fei replied while throwing a spell out. He estimated that there were ambushes everywhere and there shouldn't be any loving couples. However, after this range spell went out, the surroundings were still quiet. Gu Fei didn't quite believe this situation. What was the other party doing? Was there no ambush, or were they enduring? Gu Fei didn't hesitate. He cast Fire Tree Thousand Flames in the area where he had just cast Heaven Descent Fire Wheel. Then, he stood up from the reeds and stared at that area.

No movement, there was still no movement. There was no white light of death teleportation, nor the white light of the priest's reply. Could it be that there was really no one? Was he being sentimental? The others simply weren't thinking of ambushing him? But then, what was this piece of paper about? Could it be a prank?

While Gu Fei was at a loss, Shuxia Wangtian and others were unusually excited.

"Let's do it, let's finally do it." Shuxia Wangtian cheered to his subordinates, really proud that the plan was being implemented perfectly in the direction he had deployed. Such a valuable task must be taken back.

"With the information we revealed, I believe that Qianli Yizui can at least give them a wave of unexpected blows. Everyone has the advantage of the reeds. In comparison, Qianli Yizui, who has fewer people, has more advantages. Haha, think about it, mixed in this jungle, assassinating unexpectedly, who can stop it?" Shuxia Wangtian said.

"But, how can we get the task back?" A subordinate asked.

"Pay attention to Qianli Yizui's attack route, find a chance to get close to the small wooden cabin. Currently, the task is in the hands of someone from Duijiu Dange named Thirty Miles Away. I have already arranged things over there. Once you come into contact with the npC of the small wooden cabin, give me a signal immediately, and I will notify them to take action. After killing Thirty Miles Away, the task will be re-released in the wild. Immediately claim it, then teleport to Wen Zhou and leave. We will discuss it in the long term." Shuxia Wangtian's arrangement was also very meticulous. Qianli Yizui was just borrowed by him to create chaos here at the small wooden cabin. After all, with their skills, they really didn't have the ability to approach the small wooden cabin in such a defense.

As for Thirty Miles Away, it wasn't a secret in Caiyun Jian that this person had claimed the task. Shuxia Wangtian easily found out. And there was an internal agent in Duijiu Dange who was next to Thirty Miles Away. Once they succeeded here, the internal agent would risk exposing their identity to kill Thirty Miles Away...

Shuxia Wangtian calculated it again in his mind and felt that it was foolproof. He only needed to look forward to Qianli Yizui's performance. But after Qianli Yizui cast two fire spells in a row, the battle seemed to have stopped. Shuxia Wangtian was puzzled and quickly contacted the internal agent of Caiyun Jian, "What's going on? Weren't you already fighting?"

"I don't know. I'm not in that position. The order wasn't issued through the guild channel..." the internal agent reported.

"It seems like something's not right." Shuxia Wangtian's intuition told him that the situation was a bit abnormal. The ambushing Caiyun Jian was unusually calm, very much meaning that everything was under control.

"Guild leader, quickly hide!" Someone suddenly pointed to the top of his head. Shuxia Wangtian looked up and saw the Heaven Descent Fire Wheel was gathering. He quickly flew to dodge. He was even more shocked: was his whereabouts also exposed?

"Guild leader Shuxia, you are really infatuated with this task?" A person walked out of the reeds. Shuxia Wangtian looked up and didn't recognize him, but the guild badge on his chest was clear at a glance.

"People from Duijiu Dange?" Shuxia Wangtian was stunned.

"Yes, we're here to kill you. I believe you won't have any objections to the task, right?" The person said, and rushed towards Shuxia Wangtian without any politeness. Shuxia Wangtian was also really unambiguous and made a decisive decision, "Retreat."

With an order, the pitiful few Youhun under the tree suddenly hugged together. One person inside unfolded a teleportation scroll, but under the cover of the circle of people outside, the people from Duijiu Dange didn't notice it. The teleportation wasn't interrupted. Youhun under the tree lost two people and the teleportation array started. The remaining people disappeared in an instant. The people from Duijiu Dange then reacted.

"Damn!" The leader Jiang Jinjiu was very depressed. There was no loss if he died during the city battle. Were these people worth it? They actually wasted a teleportation scroll to run away... Of course, it was very worth it, because Duijiu Dange had made arrangements at the nearest resurrection point. As long as Shuxia Wangtian teleported back, there was no suspense that he would die 25 times. Shuxia Wangtian also expected this, so he couldn't die this time.

"What's going on!!" Shuxia Wangtian, who was completely free, was furious and roared at the internal agent of Duijiu Dange. Duijiu Dange had such an arrangement, but he didn't receive any news.

The internal agent cursed in his heart. He wasn't the guild leader. How could he know what actions were being taken? The task bribery incident made Duijiu Dange understand that there must be people from Youhun under the tree in the guild. Now that they were going to deal with Youhun under the tree, they had to be careful in selecting people. He hadn't mixed to the point where he was 100% trusted by Niliu Ershang, so of course he was excluded.

On the Yun Jiao Lakeside side, Gu Fei had been watching in all directions. He saw a war suddenly broke out in a certain corner over there, but the location wasn't where Xiyao Wu and the other three were, so he didn't know what happened. But since the fight had already started over there, he believed that he wouldn't be far away. Gu Fei looked forward to the other party making some noise, but it was still so quiet.

"Is there anyone?" Gu Fei couldn't bear it anymore and openly called out.

"I'm leaving if there's no one?" Gu Fei said.

"I'm going to complete the task?" Gu Fei walked towards the small wooden cabin.

"Boss, don't be impulsive!" Huo Qiu and the others all heard Gu Fei's shouting.

"You three go first, detour. Go to the hillside on the west side. I suspect there are eyes over there," Gu Fei said.

"It seems... we can't go."

As soon as the message arrived, Gu Fei turned his head and looked over there. Range spells were spreading wildly towards the location of the three. The reeds shook violently, obviously the three were desperately dodging. Gu Fei quickly withdrew and wanted to help. With this movement, the other party finally made a move. The sky instantly turned red, and the ground was rising with heat. The other party's spells instantly spread a circle with a radius of 30 meters centered on Gu Fei. This was the limit of the mage's attack.

"So that's how it is..." Gu Fei now knew how the other party was ambushing. The other party had been silently arranging things. They didn't intend to use close combat. The empty space with a radius of 30 meters was left for Gu Fei's death. At this time, the mages activated, and the archers also showed up and fired tracking arrows at Gu Fei.

It was unknown how many spells were superimposed on each piece of land. With Han Jia Gongzi, a familiar friend, in the opponent's lineup, Gu Fei believed that these superimpositions were enough to kill him instantly. Apart from teleporting 30 meters in an instant, what other way was there to jump out of this predicament?

The fire wheel was falling, the fire tree was rising, and Huo Qiu was screaming especially miserably before he died. The two girls, Xiyao Wu and Liuxia, were only supporting themselves by speed.

Gu Fei could only try his best to run in one direction, but no matter what, 30 meters, he couldn't run out before the spell appeared.

Everyone was already prepared to clap and celebrate, but suddenly saw Gu Fei suddenly stop, turn around and squat down.

Palm Thunder!!!

Gu Fei had already condensed a Palm Thunder in his hand during the running process. At this moment, in the instant that the other party's spell was about to attack, he suddenly struck the Palm Thunder on the ground.

Palm Thunder has a knock-back effect, but the earth can't be knocked back. At this time, the only thing that can be knocked back is Gu Fei himself.

This was Gu Fei's idea. He didn't know if it would work, but he had no other way at this time.

The electric light flickered, very eye-catching in the sea of fire. Gu Fei's people instantly rose into the air and flew backward.
