The head of the black-armored soldier exploded, and blood worms exploded in the sky. They buzzed like flies and rushed towards them. If they were bitten by this thing, they would probably have their minds devoured and turned into flesh and blood bodies, becoming controlled by the barbarians.
The puppet. "Pure Yang Fire!"
When Lin Tian saw this, he quickly opened his mouth and spat out. The eruption of pure Yang essence turned into flames, burning the blood-colored Gu insects to a crisp. "Brother, what on earth is this? It looks so scary.
"
Lin Yu's face turned slightly pale. This was the first time she had seen such a bloody scene. "These are Gu insects domesticated by barbarian wizards. These black-armored soldiers are all controlled by barbarian wizards. Unexpectedly, there are also barbarians here."
There are traces, and even someone within the Black Armored Army was murdered. The situation in the north is more complicated and dangerous than I imagined."
Lin Tian frowned slightly. Following the death of these black-armored puppets, a sharp horn sound suddenly sounded over the town. The ground then shook slightly, and dense footsteps came from a distance. The evil spirit gathered. "Barbarian Witch"
We have been discovered and it is not appropriate to stay here for a long time. Let’s leave first.”
As Lin Tian spoke, he picked up his sister and was about to leave. A figure suddenly appeared in the alley on the left. "Follow me."
It was the middle-aged man wearing a bamboo hat from before. Those black-armored soldiers seemed to be here to track him. Lin Tian originally thought that this man was some kind of bandit, but he thought that those black-armored soldiers were controlled by barbarian witches.
puppet, then this middle-aged man might know some clues. After thinking about it, Lin Tian did not hesitate and followed him. The other party was obviously familiar with the terrain and had the experience of being hunted many times, so he quickly brought him with him
Lin Tian and the two threw away the pursuers and came to an abandoned manor. "Tell me, who are you? What's the purpose of approaching us?"
After entering the manor, Lin Tian found an opportunity and bullied him directly behind the middle-aged man. His energy was locked, and the sharp sword light lingered at his fingertips. As long as the other party made any changes, he would take action immediately and kill him directly.
Heavy damage! In this Baima Town, there are strange things everywhere, and there are traces of barbarians. Lin Tian has to be more cautious, so he will not trust anyone easily. It is better to seize the opportunity and take the initiative in his own hands.
It's better to be plotted against. "Is this how you Dahe Sword Sect disciples treat your savior? If it weren't for me, you might have fallen into the hands of the enemy by now."
After being locked by Lin Tian's aura, the middle-aged man's face changed slightly and he did not dare to move rashly. But there was not much panic on his face. Lin Tian frowned slightly when he heard this: "How did you recognize that I am a disciple of the Sword Sect?
of?"
Before he came, he had put away the emblem of the Sword Sect disciples and put on ordinary people's clothes. He just didn't want to attract anyone's attention. After all, he was going to the north secretly this time. But he didn't expect that he would still be recognized by this person.
"I recognize that jade pendant. It is indeed the prince's personal belongings. The prince has now joined the Dahe Sword Sect. If you can hold his jade pendant, you are naturally from the sword sect."
The middle-aged man did not hide anything and said honestly. Lin Tian did not expect that the other party could actually recognize Chen Qingdi's jade pendant. Could it be said that he is also a member of the Black Armored Army? He couldn't help but frowned more tightly. "Who are you?
people?"
"My name is Fang Yunshan, and I am a black-armored military captain under King Wu of the Han Dynasty."
The middle-aged man said, taking off the bamboo hat on his head. He had a square face and a resolute look. He didn't look like an evil person. Of course, Lin Tian was not stupid enough to judge a person by his appearance, so he continued: "You
Since he is a member of the Black Armored Army, how can he be hunted down?"
"You saw it just now. They were not black-armored troops at all. They were just zombies controlled by barbarians using poisonous insects."
The middle-aged man sighed. He turned his head slightly and saw that Lin Tian still had a wary and questioning look on his face. He knew that this boy was too cautious. If he didn't make it clear, it would be impossible for him to believe him. What he would do next would be...
He needed help from this person and immediately stopped hiding it. He said directly: "Half a month ago, a caravan asked for help from Far East City, saying that signs of barbarian activities were discovered in Baima Town. After the prince learned about it, he took it very seriously and sent me to lead it.
People came to check. But what I didn’t expect was that as soon as I arrived in Baima Town, I found something was wrong here. All the residents were controlled by Gu insects. We were ambushed and almost the whole army was wiped out. Those black armored troops you saw, now
He is already a puppet controlled by the barbarians!"
Fang Yunshan's words were so logical that Lin Tian didn't find any loopholes for a while, but he didn't just believe him. He frowned and asked, "If that's the case, why don't you rush back to the Far East immediately and report the situation here to King Wu of the Han Dynasty?
"
"I tried, but I don't know why. The Far East is under total martial law and no one is allowed to pass. In order to hide my traces, I have abandoned everything that can prove my identity. Moreover, I dare not go back. Our operation to Baima Town is top secret
, but the other party seems to have been prepared and ambushed us in advance on the only way we must pass, which makes me suspect that there is an internal agent within the Black Armored Army."
Fang Yunshan said, slowly turned around and looked directly at Lin Tian. He said: "If I wanted to harm you, there was no need to help you escape. The reason why I saved you and told you so much was entirely because of your hands.
The person holding the jade pendant of the Crown Prince must be his friend. Otherwise, even if you kill me, I won't be able to tell you these secrets."
After listening to Fang Yunshan's words, Lin Tian shook his head. Without evidence, he could not judge whether these things were true or false, so he did not make any judgments. After thinking about it, he said: "These things you said are all one-sided words. I can't believe them."
You, maybe you are the barbarian spy? Of course, don’t worry, I won’t kill you just like that. I also plan to go to the Far East City, and I will take you there with me to meet King Wu of Han Dynasty. Is it true or false?
, just ask and you will know.”
When Fang Yunshan heard this, he shook his head. "Of course I'm not afraid to confront you in the Far East. I'm just afraid it's too late."
"It's too late? What do you mean?"
"The barbarians don't know what method they used to sneak into Baima Town and take control of the place. They must have some conspiracy. I have been hiding in Tibet these days, but I have also found out some information. They probably want to take advantage of the caravan to transport strategic supplies.
,Attack Redstone Castle!”
"Redstone Castle?"
"Well, that is the most important military fortress behind Far East City. Almost all the northern army's material reserves are here. If it is attacked, the 800,000-strong army will be cut off from water and food. The spiritual stone ordnance stored here will also be destroyed.
Destroyed, without the reserve of spiritual stones, the Great Wall formation cannot be maintained at all and will be breached soon!"
Since ancient times, soldiers and horses have to move forward before food and grass are used. This is an eternal truth. Those ordinary soldiers cannot be like warrior monks who go without food for dozens of days. Once water and food are cut off, the morale of the army will collapse. In addition, there is no spirit.
The supply of stone resources, the formations and magic weapons on the Great Wall level will all become ineffective, and they will no longer be able to stop the enemy's large-scale attack. "This is a strategy to draw fuel from the bottom of the cauldron. But, how did the barbarian spies cross the Great Wall and enter the rear? One or two
It's okay to be a barbarian master, but to attack a military fortress, it's definitely not something you can do by controlling some civilians, right?"
Lin Tian was confused. From this point of view, Fang Yunshan's statement that there were barbarians in the Black Armored Army was probably not just random talk. There was some truth to it. Maybe he was the mysterious "No. 9". "Red Stone Castle is directly related to the frontline battle situation."
, there is no room for error, it is indeed too late to go to the Far East to ask for help now. If what Fang Yunshan said is true, I cannot stand idly by."
Thinking of this, Lin Tian asked again: "You just said that the barbarian wizards took control of civilians and caravans, and wanted to take advantage of the opportunity to transport supplies to enter the Red Stone Castle to attack. Are there anyone from the Yunlong Chamber of Commerce in these caravans?"
"Yunlong Chamber of Commerce is the largest chamber of commerce in Chu State. It was authorized by the prince some time ago and is the main partner in the transportation of military supplies. They are the first target of barbarian control. That's why I said before that the person you are looking for has probably been there for a long time.
He died, and now all that’s left is his body!”
Speaking of this, Lin Tian actually believed most of it. He immediately calmed down. Fang Yunshan said: "Where are these caravans now? Take me to see them. If the situation is true, I won't embarrass you.
But if I find out you lied to me, you should understand the consequences."
This Fang Yunshan's strength is not too strong, and he is a bit agile. His true strength is that he has just stepped into the realm of true essence. With Lin Tian's current methods, it would only take a moment to kill him, so he is not afraid of him.
What kind of trick are you playing? "The reason why I saved you and said so much is actually because of this."
Fang Yunshan nodded when he heard this. It wasn't until Lin Tian calmed down that he breathed a sigh of relief and said: "I can see that you are very strong. To be honest, I alone can't stop the barbarians from attacking Red Stone Castle.
.But if you help, maybe we can still have a chance."
"It's too early to talk about this now. Take me to see it first and then talk about it."
Lin Tian said, winking at his sister. Although this girl is simple, she is not stupid. She secretly activated the magic power of the Yin Talisman and followed behind. On the surface, she was harmless to humans and animals, but she kept staring at Fang Yunshan. If he
If there is any unusual movement, even if Lin Tian doesn't notice it immediately, she can still take action to subdue it. "There may be danger later, so be careful and protect yourself. Leave the rest to me, do you understand?"
Lin Tian whispered something. Then he motioned to Fang Yunshan to lead the way. The three of them came out of the manor and passed through a forest. Soon, they saw a large caravan outside the town. They were composed of dozens of black men.
The soldiers of Army A were escorting a line of dozens of carts, all pulled by strong monsters. They were marching toward the Red Stone Castle dozens of miles away. Lin Tian looked from a distance, and sure enough he saw
We arrived at the sign of the Yunlong Chamber of Commerce. However, the merchants accompanying us all had small insect eyes left on their necks. They had obviously been controlled by the Gu.
