"Why are you three running away?" Lin Haoming asked calmly.
"Sir, we are guilty. We were afraid of death, so we deserted!" Among the three, the oldest one said pitifully.
"Okay, stop sophistry, I will give you a way to survive. Whoever is willing to lead the army to find the hiding place of the Red Flame Army, I will spare his life, otherwise I will make him live and die!" Lin Haoming did not take it.
No emotion at all.
When the three of them heard this, their faces became even more frightened, but still no one agreed.
"Mr. Lin, I have some ideas for getting people to talk. Why don't you let me do it!" Meng Kun took the initiative to speak at this time.
Lin Haoming listened, glanced at Meng Kun, and then nodded.
Meng Kun walked directly to the three people, looked at Sven's face with a slight smirk, and then flipped his hand, and a colorful snake appeared in his hand.
The little snake was no more than the thickness of a little finger, but it was five or six feet long, which looked a little weird.
When the three trapped people saw it, their faces suddenly looked particularly ugly.
Meng Kun looked at the frightened expressions of the three people with a smile, and said deliberately: "Hey, this is called a baby-eating snake. Its favorite food is Nascent Soul. Which of the three wants to come first? Don't worry, you won't be able to swallow it for a while, it will only
Eat bit by bit, we have plenty of time!”
"No, I said, I am willing to lead the way!" The oldest-looking man, who had been quibbling just now, relented at this time.
"You are very smart!" Meng Kun saw that he had given in, and a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, but with a flick of his wrist, he followed the little snake and scurried directly towards the other person, and suddenly got into his nostril.
"ah!"
The man felt the colorful snake entering his body and immediately screamed. However, he was tied tightly at this moment and could not move at all, so he could only let the snake penetrate into his body.
"I'll lead the way, I'll lead the way!" Finally he couldn't hold on any longer and immediately begged for mercy.
The last person who saw it also immediately shouted: "I will also lead the way, I am also willing to lead the way..."
Seeing the three people surrendering one after another, Meng Kun was also very satisfied. He said to the person who had the baby-eating snake burrowed into his body: "Open your mouth!"
After the man heard this, he didn't hesitate at all and immediately opened his mouth.
Meng Kun stretched out his hand and waved it in front of his mouth a few times, and then the colorful little snake came out of his mouth again. As for the man, he trembled with fear. When the little snake came out completely, he fell directly to the ground.
On the ground, there were tears in his eyes.
"I'm going to calm the commotion!"
Seeing that the matter was settled, Shao Xuehan took the initiative to go out. In just a moment, the originally noisy military camp became completely quiet.
At this time, Lin Haoming also smiled and handed the three of them to Ma Huan, said a few words and walked out.
Lin Haoming walked out of the tent, and the bearded man came out immediately. Lin Haoming deliberately slowed down his pace. When he arrived, he whispered: "Quick Lu, you did a good job this time!"
"It's all adults who support me!" the bearded man said with a smile.
"Okay, don't say too much flattery. If you arrest someone today, you have already exposed your identity as mine. But it doesn't matter in the future. You can continue to keep a close eye on me in the army until this matter is over.
If you are willing to stay in the City Guards, I will give you a good position. If not, I will also arrange a good job for you!" Lin Haoming promised.
"Thank you, sir. Sir, you know that I am not doing this for you just to get promoted and get rich!" Lu Kuai said.
"Don't worry, I will deliver that person to you and let you deal with it personally!" Lin Haoming promised again.
After hearing Lin Haoming's guarantee, Lu Kuai nodded and said: "Don't worry, sir, I will definitely do what you ask me to do!"
Seeing Lu Kuai and his men disappearing into the military camp, Lin Haoming breathed a sigh of relief.
The most important thing why Lin Haoming has been hiding in the army these days is to find someone he can trust.
After several inquiries, I finally found this corps commander named Lu Kuai. This man was originally a good man in the city guard, but he was unlucky. His wife and concubine were all hanging out with Yang Fan behind his back. Although he
He had known it for a long time, even most people in the army knew it, but he also understood that Yang Fan was Gao Liangsheng's confidant, and he was also in the Taoist realm. If he wanted to go against him, he would only die, so he kept cuckolding and humiliating him.
Alive, but he knew in his heart that he wanted revenge.
In fact, before Lin Haoming found him, he didn't think that Lu Kuai was the most suitable candidate. A person who could bear humiliation and bear the burden for so many years was scheming enough, but time was short and there was no way. Moreover, this person was not in the Mahayana stage. Even if he was really
Although he had problems, he was able to deal with them, and finally promised him benefits and asked him to do things for him. At least for now, it seems that things are not bad.
Early the next morning, the army set off as scheduled.
After Lin Haoming left, the three people were asked separately about where the Red Flame Army was hiding. They soon found a unified location, a hidden valley in the Red Flame Mountain. That place could easily hide more than a thousand people without being discovered.
Entering the Red Flame Mountain is completely different from marching outside. Meng Kun personally sent out as many as a hundred scouts to be alert to any abnormalities in the mountain.
The army did not move forward exactly according to the route mentioned by the three men. Instead, it walked a certain distance, received reports from the scouts, and then continued moving forward. All actions were cautious.
Because the valley was far away, the army had to walk for at least three days to reach it, so they camped in the mountains at night. However, because the mountains were not safe, after choosing a resting place, the eight thousand disciples carefully slept with their clothes on.
No camp was set up, and the scouts wandered around without listening.
By this time, Lin Haoming also saw the gap between the general city guards and the garrison camp. One day after coming down the mountain road, although the people in the garrison camp were tired, they did whatever they were ordered to do without any complaints.
Many people in the guards complained, but they were quickly suppressed.
In the second half of the night, someone escaped again, but this time only one was caught. There were originally five people who escaped, and the other four were killed in a direct confrontation on the way.
Lin Haoming watched them being discovered and hunted down, and when they fought with others, these people were extremely ruthless, just like dead soldiers. This discovery made everyone feel moved and worried, but they didn't know that the city guards
How many people like that are there in the army?
The man who was caught was much tougher than the previous three. Only after Meng Kun was bitten by the baby-eating snake for a quarter of an hour did he succumb. Privately, Meng Kun also expressed his admiration for this man who finally succumbed.
, most people are bitten by a baby-eating snake for a quarter of an hour, and either die directly or go crazy, but such people still can't resist, which shows how terrifying the baby-eating snake is, and Lin Haoming is also a little wary of Meng Kun. 8)
