There were many swords and guns, and rows of black-armored soldiers had been waiting here for a long time, with strong bows and crossbows aimed at everyone.
"No! It's a trap!"
The barbarian warrior hiding in the caravan suddenly changed his expression and took out a copper bell from his arms.
Jingle bells.
Those puppet merchants who were originally dull suddenly seemed to be activated.
His eyes were blood red, he let out a terrifying roar, and he rushed forward with his teeth and claws bared.
"These people are all dead. Now they are just puppets controlled by the barbarian Gu. Don't be merciful, just shoot them!"
In the black-armored army formation, a heroic female general said loudly.
Obviously this is not the first time he has dealt with barbarians, and he is very aware of their methods.
Whoosh whoosh——
As the female general gave the order, the crossbow arrows shot through the air, and the rain of arrows shrouded the sky.
Blood splattered.
The bodies of those puppet merchants were pierced by arrows, and they immediately burst into flames, and together with the poisonous insects in their bodies, they were instantly killed.
"These crossbow arrows have flame symbols on them and are specially used to deal with barbarians. However, for normal people, they are not very lethal."
Lin Tian raised his hand slightly and protected himself with a burst of true energy.
He blocked all the rain of arrows flying towards him without any damage.
And at this time.
Seeing that something was wrong, the barbarian warriors disguised as the black-armored army roared crazily. Their armors all over their bodies were fierce, and their bodies suddenly tallened up, revealing their true colors. They all looked ferocious with three heads and six arms, and were extremely fierce.
Holding a sword, he swept across all directions.
Their bodies are strong, and they have steel-like scales on their bodies. They are like human Shura, and ordinary crossbow arrows cannot hurt them at all.
"For the Barbarian King, for the Witch God!"
"Brave barbarian warriors, kill them all!"
In the roar of fanaticism.
Dozens of barbarian warriors revealed their true forms, turned over and mounted the huge monster beasts that were originally used to pull carts, transformed into giant beast cavalry, and rampaged through the rain of arrows, directly killing the black-armored army formation ahead!
"So strong! These barbarian warriors are all elite, and their physical strength is terrifying, comparable to masters of the True Element Realm."
Lin Tian was slightly surprised. This was the first time he saw the combat effectiveness of ordinary barbarian soldiers.
Compared to the barbarian witches who practice witchcraft, these barbarian warriors are just as terrifying.
Imagine, if thousands of barbarians really invaded the Chu Kingdom, how could ordinary people resist? They would definitely be destroyed and reduced to food!
"How dare you act so recklessly when you are about to die?"
Seeing how ferocious the barbarians were, Lin Tian did not hesitate.
Although these barbarians are not many in number and will die sooner or later, if they are allowed to go crazy, they will definitely cause a lot of casualties.
So Lin Tian did not hesitate.
Directly opening the Void Sword Box, two sword lights flew out at the same time. The two qi of yin and yang and the two rites of heaven and earth turned into sword qi dragons and swept out.
Several barbarian warriors were killed in an instant.
"Master Barbarian Witch, you..."
The leading barbarian warrior obviously did not expect that Lin Tian would suddenly take action. He was stunned for a moment and quickly reacted!
"You liar! You cunning and despicable human beings, go to hell!"
The other party knew that he had been fooled and regretted it extremely, but Lin Tian was too strong and he was no match at all, so he had to retreat to the side of the convoy, shoot out a ball of evil fire, ignite the cargo on the vehicle, and want to detonate the fire thunder beads inside.
perish together!
"Haha! Despicable and cunning humans, do you think you have won? These cars are all filled with fire thunder beads. The entire Red Stone Castle will be blown up to the sky later. You will all be buried with me. The barbarians will win!"
He laughed wildly.
When those black-armored soldiers heard the Fire Thunder Beads, their faces changed slightly and they subconsciously stepped back.
The leading female general's face darkened, and she quickly ordered the activation of emergency defensive formations.
However.
After waiting for a long time, all the vehicles were engulfed in fire, but the imaginary explosion never came.
"What's going on? Why didn't it explode?"
The barbarian warrior was stunned.
At this time, Lin Tian slowly took out a fire thunder bead from the storage bag and said with a smile: "Are you talking about this thing? Sorry, for safety reasons, I have moved them in advance. So.
, your operation this time has failed. I advise you to just surrender, maybe there is still a way to survive."
"mean!"
The barbarian warrior cursed angrily, then roared and charged forward.
"The barbarians only have warriors who died in battle, never cowards who surrendered!"
The big ax struck down in the air.
Lin Tian saw this and shook his head.
He knew that the people who could carry out such a task must be die-hard elites of the barbarians, and it was almost impossible for them to surrender. Moreover, they were just abandoned sons, and it was impossible for them to know much useful information.
He didn't hold back immediately.
He punched directly in the face, shattering the giant ax made of fine iron.
The terrifying force immediately overwhelmed him.
It was like under the mountain town, the barbarian warrior screamed and knelt down, and his head exploded with a crash.
soon.
The other black-armored troops took advantage of the victory and pursued them, killing all the remaining barbarians.
"The barbarians are cunning. There may be other accomplices trying to sneak in. Send people to immediately step up the alert and search everywhere!"
The female general of the black-armored army gave orders one after another.
After making these arrangements, he stepped forward, followed by Fang Yunshan.
"General Hong Ling, this is Lin Tian, a disciple of the Sword Sect I mentioned. It was he who asked me to bring the crown prince's jade pendant to report the news. If he hadn't helped me this time, the consequences would have been disastrous."
Fang Yunshan stepped forward and introduced.
This guy did not take the opportunity to escape, but informed Red Stone Castle as agreed. It seems that what he said before should be true.
The female general named Hong Ling heard the words, nodded, and quickly thanked Lin Tian: "Mr. Lin, thank you very much for what happened today. If you hadn't helped me, I'm afraid we would still have been kept in the dark. If so,
Let these barbarians sneak in, detonate the fire thunder beads, and cause the destruction of food and grass supplies. I will die forever!"
When Lin Tian heard this, he glanced at the female general.
Although this person is a female, her aura is strong and there is a glow of magic power all over her body, so she is obviously very powerful.
Moreover, all the previous responses were extremely appropriate. He was obviously a famous general with real abilities, otherwise he would not have been sent to Red Stone Castle by King Wu of the Han Dynasty to guard him.
Therefore Lin Tian was also very polite.
He smiled and replied: "General Hong Ling is too polite. I am both a disciple of the Sword Sect and a subject of the Chu State. Seeing the barbarians wreaking havoc, it is my duty to do these things."
"Young Master Lin is too modest. The barbarians are so cunning that ordinary people can't even join their ranks, let alone exchange the Fire and Thunder Pearls without anyone noticing. I will report this matter to the prince and the court, and I will take action when the time comes.
Sir, please take credit."
"It doesn't matter what the credit is. Even if it's for Qing Emperor's sake, I won't stand idly by."
Lin Tian waved his hand. He did not intend to become an official in the court. This so-called military merit was actually of little significance.
Of course, if King Wu of Han and the royal family of Chu wanted to reward him with some real benefits, he would not refuse.
"Young Master is righteous. No wonder he is regarded as a close friend by the Crown Prince. This jade pendant is his favorite personal possession. He even has the authority to mobilize the black armored army in the north. If he is not a trusted person, he will never give it to him."
Hong Ling said, and took the opportunity to return the jade pendant, her beautiful eyes flashed, and she did not hide her appreciation for Lin Tian.
Lin Tian felt a little embarrassed by her gaze.
This woman in the military is completely different from the ones I encounter in daily life. Her likes and dislikes are all on her face, without any lies.
Lin Tian was really not used to being stared directly at by such a beautiful female general.
He quickly took the jade pendant, coughed dryly, and changed the subject: "Actually, when I came to the north this time, I was planning to go to the Far East City. The master asked me to bring important information about the barbarians. I need to meet with King Wu of Han and other officials as soon as possible.
The head teacher of this sect.
But I heard that martial law has been enforced over there in Far East City, making it difficult for ordinary people to approach.
We may need the general's help in this matter."
"Martial law has indeed been imposed in the Far East. Because the barbarians have assembled a large army outside the Great Wall and may attack at any time. Recently, many signs of demon spies have been found in Chu State. Even the prince was assassinated. Therefore, martial law is imposed in the Far East in advance.
, also just in case.”
Hong Ling nodded after hearing this.
He said: "However, Mr. Lin has the jade pendant of the Crown Prince, so he can pass without any obstruction. However, military formations have been set up along the way. If you go alone, you will be delayed."
Well, you have been working hard all the way. You can rest for two days at Red Stone Castle. When I contact the Far East, I will send a special military airship to take you directly to the Far East."
Lin Tian thought about it and didn't refuse.
The main reason is that he doesn't know the further moves of the barbarians, so there's no point in rushing to the Far East. It's better to take advantage of this time to refine the saber-toothed tiger bones he obtained to increase his strength, so as to cope with various crises that may arise next.
"Okay, then I'll trouble you, General."
Lin Tiandao thanked him.
Then he looked at Fang Yunshan next to him. This guy had been following him, looking at him eagerly, and kept winking at Hong Ling.
Only then did the latter remember it, and said sheepishly: "There is one more thing that I have to trouble Mr. Lin. This Captain Fang is indeed from the Black Armored Army. I don't know the specific details, but I know that he is an upright person.
Loyalty is not a traitor.
I also ask the young master to remove the Yama curse seal on his body, so that he will not pester me all day long and ask me to help him plead for mercy."
"Since the general has said so, of course I have to give him face."
Lin Tian smiled, and then gently patted Fang Yunshan on the shoulder. The sword soul used the power of the life and death meridian to resolve it in an instant.
"Captain Fang, I have wronged you. I did it for the sake of safety. I had no choice but to do it. Please don't mind."
Hearing this, Fang Yunshan waved his hands quickly, "No, no, Mr. Lin is young and mature. You should be more cautious about this kind of thing."
This man is also an open-minded person.
The two were talking.
suddenly.
A Black Sword sergeant ran in and reported: "General, while we were patrolling, we discovered that someone had damaged your study and seemed to want to steal confidential documents!"
"What?"
When Hong Ling heard this, her face changed slightly.
"Has anyone been caught?"
"No, but we are trapped. There is a barbarian wizard inside, but he has been knocked unconscious. There is also a woman, who is said to be Mr. Lin's sister. The subordinates do not dare to use force, so they come here to report.
"
After hearing this, Lin Tian remembered that his sister Lin Yu had been following the caravan.
Why did this girl run into the study room?
He immediately said quickly: "Where is he? Take me to see him quickly."
soon.
Lin Tian, Hong Ling and others left the warehouse and came to the study door, and they saw Lin Yu as expected.
This girl was pouting with an unhappy look on her face.
But fortunately, the soldiers around her didn't really attack her, they just stood around on guard, which was enough to save her face.
"Mr. Lin, is this really your sister?"
Hong Ling asked.
The first time she saw Lin Yu, she felt a faint cold aura and mana fluctuations on his body.
It's unimaginable that at her age, she actually developed magical powers.
It seems that his cultivation level is higher than that of Lin Tian, which is incredible, so he asked the question.
Of course she doesn't know.
Because of Lin Yu's special physique, he has gained magical power through direct cultivation, but there are still some differences between him and ordinary masters in the magical power realm.
Of course, Lin Tian would not explain too much, but just smiled apologetically: "It is indeed my roommate. It is her first time to go out, so she is a little ignorant. She may have gone to the wrong place. Please don't mind, General."
Hong Ling was also reasonable and nodded: "Master Lin just helped us a lot. He definitely cannot be a barbarian spy. Since he is your sister, it must be a misunderstanding."
After saying that, he waved his hand and asked the soldiers to retreat.
Lin Tian then stepped forward and made sure that his sister was safe and uninjured, and then he breathed a sigh of relief.
"Xiaoyu, why are you here? Are you injured?"
"Brother, you are here. I was kind enough to help them catch the thief, and I was almost caught by them."
Lin Yu pouted and said a little aggrievedly.
But seeing my brother coming, those grievances and unhappiness quickly disappeared.
Lin Tian quickly comforted her, and then glanced at the unconscious man on the ground. Judging from his attire, he turned out to be a barbarian wizard, and his expression changed slightly.
"Xiao Yu, tell me quickly, what's going on?"
"Brother, didn't you ask me to follow the caravan all the time and support you at any time?
I noticed someone was following me, so I paid attention.
It was this guy who was sneaky and ran into this room while you were going to the warehouse, as if he wanted to steal some layout plan. So I caught him!"
Lin Yu said proudly.
It looks like you are about to praise me.
Lin Tian was actually a little surprised after hearing this. He had learned from the barbarian warrior that their actions this time, including the events in Baima Town, were controlled by a barbarian wizard named Wolf Leader.
But this person did not follow the caravan.
Lin Tian was still thinking about where to find this person.
Unexpectedly, he came to the door by himself, and just happened to be beaten by Lin Yu again, and he was caught.
But there is one thing to say.
Lin Tian had personally experienced the fighting power of the barbarian wizards. Their methods were changeable and the witchcraft they practiced was extremely mysterious. Even he had to be cautious and deal with them with all his strength.
Unexpectedly, Lin Yu was able to subdue him.
From this point of view, the Yellow Emperor's Yin Fu Sutra is really powerful, and it is indeed a technique that can become a god.
Lin Yu only had to refine a Yin Talisman to have such combat power.
If one could truly master this magical power, how powerful would it be?
"Yes, yes, Xiaoyu, you have accomplished a great feat this time and captured a barbarian wizard alive. Well done!"
Lin Tian certainly did not hesitate to praise his sister.
When the little girl heard this, she immediately became happy and no longer angry. She hugged her brother's arm and said with a sweet smile: "Then how are you going to reward me?"
