Chapter 2704 Navigation
In the evening, it was still that courtyard and that room.
"Bang!" The wooden door was pushed open, and the middle-aged man ran into the room while shouting, "Father, father, there is new news from the Ouyang family."
"Alas!" The old man looked helpless, put down the brush in his hand, sighed and said: "As a family manager, how can you be so panicked when encountering things? Don't you know that you should stay calm when encountering things and respond to changes with the same attitude?"
"Ah! Father, oh, clan leader, I..." The middle-aged man was speechless for a moment. After hearing the news, he immediately became anxious and wanted to report the news to his father, so he was a little anxious.
Unexpectedly, when I opened the door, I was ridiculed by my own father.
"Haha, father, well, well, I was a little anxious. I will definitely change it in the future, I will definitely change it!" The middle-aged man immediately admitted his mistake. Anyway, he had experienced this kind of thing many times, and his father just wanted him to be more mature and stable.
"Forget it, forget it. I want you to be more steady, but it may still be a little difficult for you to remember. Just take it slowly in the future. Maybe after experiencing more things, you can change." There is no other way. What can he do with his own cub? Should he just blow it away?
The old man has now cultivated to the tenth level of the acquired realm, but his progress is slow, and cultivation consumes time and energy, so he thought about practicing calligraphy, cultivating his body and mind, and restoring his energy and spirit. Maybe then he will be able to break through his current level.
Of course, after practicing to this level, who wouldn’t want to break through this stage and directly advance to become a innate?
If someone from the Ouyang family advances to the Xiantian realm this time, then their family rank in the entire northwest will definitely not be good, and they may even be suppressed by the Ouyang family. That's why he arranged for someone to take action, so that the Ouyang family's expedition team would be unable to catch up with the rendezvous time after encountering an accident.
Among the Qian family and the Ma family who initiated the expedition, there are innate masters. So if a certain family does not meet up at the agreed time, they will definitely offend these innate masters.
The innate cannot be humiliated. Since it cannot be humiliated, and if you are disrespectful to the innate masters and are late for the rendezvous, the consequences will definitely not be something the Ouyang family can bear.
Therefore, preventing the Ouyang family from joining forces is of utmost importance.
After waiting for a while, the old man asked the middle-aged man, "Tell me, what important matter has brought you here in such a hurry?"
When the middle-aged man heard that he could speak, he said, "Patriarch, I just received a new message about the situation of the Ouyang family team."
The old man glared at the middle-aged man and said, "This is the family meeting room. You have to call me the clan leader." The old man stroked his short beard and continued, "Tell me, what's the news?"
The middle-aged man looked helpless. His father was a little too particular about addressing him like that. However, what else could he do about his father? He could only endure it. He said, "We saw members of the Ouyang family arriving by helicopter in a small city near the meeting point. We have also found out the number of them. There are more than 21 people in total."
This news was received by family members in the rendezvous area, who immediately reported it after seeing it.
After all, after receiving the news of the blocking team, the middle-aged man mobilized his own children to deploy personnel in the rendezvous area to monitor whether the Ouyang family had arrived. Unexpectedly, this arrangement was really useful. Not only did he see the members of the Ouyang family, but he also knew how they went to the rendezvous area.
After hearing this, the old man burst into laughter and said, "Hey! I never thought that Ouyang Nan was so quick-witted that he actually took a helicopter to the rendezvous point. It's also my fault that I didn't expect that Ouyang Nan would take advantage of the opportunity."
"Chief, how can you be blamed for this? No one would have thought of this. Even the wisest man can make mistakes, and even the best plans will have loopholes." The middle-aged man comforted.
"Okay, I don't need you to comfort me." The old man had a good attitude and quickly adjusted his state and said, "Well, you go contact the Ninth Elder and ask him to bring the people back. Then, tell the expedition team what I said and ask them to act according to the previously formulated strategy. Once there is a chance, suppress the Ouyang family and don't let them get any benefit."
The middle-aged man immediately nodded in agreement, then turned and left the room.
The old man picked up the brush again and wrote on the rice paper, but he found that what he wrote now was a little different from what he had just written, and the font was a little rough.
"Oh, I'm so confused, it's hard to write! It seems that I still haven't mastered it." The old man stopped writing, threw the brush directly to the side of the pen holder, turned around and left with his hands behind his back. As for everything here, someone will naturally clean it up.
……
Ouyang Nan naturally didn't know who was between the teams, so he could only quickly reach the meeting point. After joining up with other family teams, the obstruction would naturally disappear.
After all, there are innate masters from other families at the meeting point. If they still want to take action, wouldn’t that be a slap in the face?
At this moment, the convoy was approaching the meeting place. Ouyang Nan immediately slowed down the convoy and asked the driver to drive to the front and take the lead.
After getting off the plane and changing to the car, we were comfortable for about 20 minutes, and then the convoy began to drive on the bumpy road. Under the wheels of the car, there was actually no decent road, basically all dirt roads, roads crushed by previous vehicles.
The vehicle was shaking a bit when driving on it, but fortunately the vehicles in the fleet were all good cars with good shock absorption, so although there was some shaking, it did not have any impact.
However, the roads are not just full of potholes, but also rivers, mountains, etc. Sometimes cars have to wade through water or go around mountains.
At this moment, the convoy has entered the Kunlun Mountains, but it is still outside the Kunlun Mountains, so there are still some roads for cars to drive. However, since there are not many cars entering here all year round, the road conditions are not very good. At present, some areas of the Kunlun Mountains have been developed as protected areas and tourist attractions. The scenery is not bad, and you can still see some green, especially in spring and summer, you can also see some nice natural scenery.
However, the road the convoy was traveling on was not a developed area, nor even a protected area, but a Gobi Desert, where there were basically no plants or animals. Of course, there were some plants, such as Achnatherum splendens that grew on the Gobi Desert, and some animals were also very rare.
The convoy continued to move forward without encountering any large animals. All they could see was a Gobi desert, and the surrounding area was extremely desolate.
If you don’t have navigation, you might get lost if you enter here.
Moreover, the climate here is also a plateau climate, especially in the evening, the temperature is gradually dropping. If you wait until late at night, the temperature may drop to below zero.
Therefore, the climate here is very bad. Fortunately, this expedition was in the summer, and the nights were not too cold, only a few degrees below zero, so we just needed to wear something thicker. Besides, everyone was a warrior, and this time, including the driver, there were no armed personnel, only warriors driving. Therefore, anti-freeze ability and altitude sickness did not appear in their team.
Here, the car speed can no longer be increased, and the speed is only about 40 to 50 kilometers per hour.
After driving for more than two hours, the convoy had bypassed several not very high mountains and several rivers, and finally arrived at the foot of a mountain that looked quite high from a distance. From a distance, there was still snow on the peak.
Now, the light at the foot of the mountain is very dim, but there is still light on the other side of the mountain, illuminating the mountain very brightly.
Such scenery really makes people feel beautiful and majestic.
However, the light on the mountain peak did not last long before it gradually dimmed. At the foot of the mountain, it was even darker. As evening approached, the team turned on their lights.
We continued walking forward for about half an hour, and when we were close to the foot of the mountain, we saw someone blocking us in front, shaking a flashlight in his hand.
The flashlight flickered, but it was not blinding, it just signaled the car to stop.
The man holding the flashlight stepped forward and asked the people in the car, "Is this the Ouyang family?"
"That's right!" the driver agreed immediately.
"Very good, you are the only family missing from the rendezvous. The other families have already arrived." The person who stopped the car said with a smile, "Wait, your convoy will follow me. I will drive in front and lead the way. Together we will go to the parking lot at the rendezvous point."
"Hey, wait a minute, young man. I want to ask, who is in charge of the meeting point now?" Ouyang Nan opened the car door, stopped the young man and asked.
Although the young man is young, his strength is not low. Judging from his qi and blood, he is estimated to be at the fourth level of the acquired realm, which is quite good. In various martial arts families, if someone of this age can reach the fourth level of the acquired realm, his cultivation talent is also very good.
The young man saw that it was a woman of some age, but he was unable to judge the energy and blood in her body. He just felt that this person was definitely very strong.
Therefore, there was no need to be impolite, but he replied politely: "The rendezvous point is now in charge of Elder Qian Ying of our Qian family."
"What, Elder Qian Ying, your Qian family's innate third-level expert?" Ouyang Nan asked in surprise. She didn't expect that the Qian family would arrange such a powerful expert to come for the expedition. It seems that this expedition is definitely very dangerous. However, great danger means great opportunities, and maybe you can get some treasures.
Therefore, the expectations for this expedition became even higher.
"Yes, it's Elder Qian Ying." said the young man.
"Okay! Lead the way, I want to visit Elder Qian Ying." Ouyang Nan said.
The young man asked hesitantly, "I wonder who you are..."
Ouyang Nan patted his head and said awkwardly: "Look at me, look at me, I got a little excited after hearing about Elder Qian Ying. My name is Ouyang Nan, and I am the leader of the Ouyang family's team this time."
After hearing this, the young man smiled and said, "Okay, let's set off immediately. I'll drive ahead and lead the way. Please follow me. This road is not easy to drive on because it is near the foot of the mountain. If there is any problem, please flash your lights three times so that we can stop and deal with the situation in time. We will probably need to drive for more than half an hour to reach the meeting point."
"Okay!" Ouyang Nan agreed after hearing this.
The convoy then continued on its way.
