This dynasty's escorts and the Western Region envoys, consisting of thousands of people, were just like marching, and they were not allowed to stay in hotels along the way. Wherever they passed along the way, they would choose places to camp at night.
At this moment, the team set up camp in a wide place.
Under the setting sun, countless smoke rises from the camp.
The soldiers began to set up pots to make rice.
Lin Yi and three others sneaked near the camp to take a peek.
Through the diffuse smoke, I could see that the entire camp was densely packed with countless tents. There were hundreds of tents. Lin Yi had experience fighting the Xixia army back then. Looking at this camp, he initially estimated that there were three thousand four people.
scale.
The three of them looked at each other, and with this formation, it was no easier to assassinate Li Chao than to assassinate the Tubo King.
Qin Guangmin said: "I... let's make a sneak attack... and then the three of us will join forces... and we will attack him together. Kill him and leave..."
With the strength of three people attacking one person, no matter how powerful the opponent is, there is no chance.
Qin Guangmin also enjoyed the benefits of saving time and effort.
Miao Xue said: "There are so many tents, and I don't know which one Li Chao is in. Besides, Li Chao is not a Tubo king, and his martial arts is not weak. It will take a lot of effort to kill him after being beaten. There are also
, there are two powerful masters around him to protect him. One is Li Shiwu who has practiced the Blood Demon Kung Fu. I'm afraid it won't be that easy."
Lin Yi also said: "Miao Xue is right. And if it is difficult to kill him in the shortest time, everyone will be alarmed. Lu Ba and Yang Chang will also arrive immediately. Then the soldiers will surround them, and there will be trouble.
.It will be a bloody battle. The three of us cannot go on a killing spree against our soldiers and generals. We have to rely on them to protect our country and kill the enemy on the battlefield. Therefore, we cannot use the method of dealing with the Tubo King this time.
"
In fact, Lin Yi had already planned how to kill Li Chao.
That's why he sent little boys to deliver multiple letters.
Lin Yi said: "Leave this matter to me. In short, we must not let Li Chao and Li Shiwu escape this time."
The three of them found a place to rest nearby.
So that you can monitor trends at any time.
Lin Yi asked Miao Xue and Qin Guangmin to eat, and he came to the front of the camp alone.
Lin Yi did not carry any weapons, his face was covered, only his eyes were exposed.
Soldiers outside the camp stopped Lin Yi. Lin Yi said that he was from the Lu family and had been ordered by the Prime Minister to meet with General Lu Ba on important matters.
Since they came under the orders of the Prime Minister, the soldiers did not dare to neglect and reported to Lu Ba quickly.
Lu Ba ordered people to bring Lin Yi to his tent.
So Lin Yi was taken to Lu Ba's tent.
Lu Ba was sitting at the table, with Yang Chang and two generals sitting next to him. There were food and a jar of wine on the table. A food delivery soldier kept placing food on the table.
It turned out that Lu Ba and the others were preparing to have dinner.
Lin Yi did not expect that Yang Chang and others were also in the tent.
Lu Ba looked at Lin Yi.
Yang Chang also looked at Lin Yi.
Yang Chang's face showed doubts.
Yang Chang is in his forties, with a Chinese character face and a short beard.
At first, Lin Yi did not find out who the man with two guns in black was, and Yang Chang was also a suspect. Lin Yi also used his identity as a gold-masked guard to contact Yang Chang.
So I recognize him.
Yang Chang said: "It's spring now, and the weather is getting warmer. You're still covering your face, obviously because you're afraid of being recognized. I'm afraid you weren't sent by the Prime Minister, right?"
As soon as Lu Ba said these words, several warriors in the tent immediately put their hands on the handles of their swords and stared at Lin Yi.
Lin Yi didn't want to expose himself in front of these people. After all, he was here to kill Li Chao this time. He acted cautiously. If Li Chao knew that he came to the camp, Li Chao would be alert.
Lin Yi gained wisdom out of desperation.
"General Yang, I am really sent by the Prime Minister. This matter is important. The Prime Minister ordered me not to make any mistakes. I can only tell Mr. Lu alone, so I am cautious." Lin Yi was worried that Yang Chang would ask him to take off his mask.
Then he said to Lu Ba: "Master Lu, Prime Minister's secret message, thank you for taking care of the sword..."
As soon as Lu Ba heard this "code word", he knew it was Lin Yi.
Lu Ba then said to several people: "It's really sent by the Prime Minister. General Yang, it was my turn to invite you tonight, but now the Prime Minister has sent someone... In this way, I will invite you tomorrow and the day after."
Yang Chang stood up and said with a smile: "Since the prime minister has secret matters, it is not convenient for us to listen, so we will bring some food and wine to eat and drink somewhere else."
Yang Chang and others brought some food and wine and left the tent.
Only Lu Ba and Lin Yi were left in the waiting room, and Lin Yi also took off his face covering.
Lu Ba looked excited and said: "Brother Lin! Did you know that I sent people everywhere to look for you! But you were nowhere to be found, which really made me anxious."
Lin Yi said: "Brother Lu, your people found me. I know that the ice corpse has been resurrected. That's why I came to find brother Lu. What is going on? How can I let the ice corpse escape?! By the way, there are also
One thing, Brother Lu, did you really kill the Iron-faced God?"
Lin Yi now only knows that Beigong Wuyang resurrected the ice corpse. As for the circumstances of the ice corpse's resurrection and how it escaped, Lin Yi doesn't know. Furthermore, he also wants to know whether the Iron-faced God was really killed by Lu
Ba led the people to be killed.
Lu Ba didn't answer yet, he said: "Have you eaten yet?"
Lin Yi said: "No, I'm here to beg for food and drinks."
Lu Ba asked Lin Yi to sit down. He poured wine for Lin Yi and said, "Then let's talk while eating..."
Lu Ba also poured himself a drink, then clinked a glass with Lin Yi, and each drank the wine in one gulp.
Lin Yi wiped the wine stains from his mouth and said, "Tell me about the Iron-faced God first."
Lu Ba looked at Lin Yi and said: "The matter of killing the Iron-faced Lord is related to bullying the king. I couldn't say it at first. But I believe that Brother Lin will not harm me and the Prime Minister, and we will keep it a secret."
Lin Yi was very relieved that Lu Ba could trust him so much.
Lin Yi said sternly: "I will never reveal anything to anyone!"
Lu Ba said: "To be honest with Brother Lin, I killed the Iron-faced God for a lie. It was just to deal with the emperor. The real Iron-faced God has been in the Yunshan underground palace. Moreover, the Iron-faced Gods are the key to resurrecting the ice corpse."
Lin Yi was really surprised that his younger brother was the key to resurrecting the Blood Demon.
Lin Yi said: "Brother Lu, can you tell me the details?"
Lu Ba then told Lin Yi in detail how Beigong Wuyang resurrected the ice corpse, including the key role played by the Iron-faced God.
But when it comes to the Lu family's secrets, Lu Ba still won't reveal anything.
After listening to Lu Ba's story, Lin Yi understood what happened.
When Lin Yi heard that his brother was tortured, soaked in medicine, tied up with iron chains, intubated in the mouth, and given a large amount of blood transfusions to the frozen corpse. In short, at their mercy, Lin Yi's heart hurt like a knife.
It turns out that his younger brother is the key to resurrecting the Blood Demon.
No wonder the two monsters from the north and the south control his younger brother.
Lin Yi was so angry that he drank two bowls of wine and his eyes became red.
Lu Ba poured Lin Yi another drink. He looked at Lin Yi with a special look and said, "King Lin, we already know that the ice corpse is the blood demon from two hundred years ago! If Brother Lin could tell me earlier,
, that’s what happened..."
Lin Yi said: "The blood demon thing is not trivial, how can I tell others so easily. And I also promised Wangshan Shenjun. I didn't expect that Beigong Wuyang actually resurrected him! I warned Beigong Wuyang, if
He is really determined to try to resurrect the Blood Demon, so he must be fully prepared, and everything must be under his control. How could he let things get out of control and let the Blood Demon escape..."
