Chapter Thirty-Seven: Blessings and Misfortunes Are Fleeting

Lin Chen felt very comfortable at the moment, although he was soaking wet, he felt that he had washed away his bad luck. He was carried up the mountain by four people, and he still had the dry rations that the sergeant carried with the army.

During the conversation with the adjutant and the third prince, Lin Chen heard that the third prince was the favorite prince of Emperor Shangguo, and the three princes were heartbroken when they saw the emperor worrying about the lack of water. It is said that there is a river flowing down the mountain range on the southeast side of the national capital, which is not only clear and drinkable, but also has a sweet taste.

But there are a large number of beasts living in this empty mountain, as well as beast demons, of course, beast demons do not often appear in the human world, so not many people know about it, and most people think it is just a legend. However, the imperial army tried to conquer the Kongjing Mountain several times, but it was all unsuccessful, and even the smallest tributary on the outskirts of the mountain range could not be conquered.

"It's not because of how powerful the beasts on the outskirts of the Kongjing Mountain are, it's just that every time the army occupies the river, the river dries up the next day, and there is not a drop of water left. Therefore, after a few times, the conquest of the Kongjing Mountain can only be stopped, because even if the imperial capital and even the army of the whole country are pulled over, it will not be able to fill this huge Kongjing Mountain. The third prince sighed.

In fact, the emperor of the imperial capital knew in his heart that it was the beast demons upstream who blocked the river and flowed elsewhere, but if it was publicized like this, wouldn't it be a real beast in the mountains, and it was estimated that the imperial capital would be panicked, and I was afraid that there would never be peace.

Later, the three princes happened to meet Ma Fengliu, who was born in Kongjing Mountain, and learned that the holy mountain of Kongjing Mountain was occupied by an old witch, so he and the three princes who were trying to solve problems for the emperor seized the opportunity and bought Ma Fengliu.

"Our 2,000 people came in in five groups, and we hid all day long, except for the road, almost all of them hid in the caves provided by those pangolin monsters. Two days ago, we finally gathered the army, and agreed that the beast demons led by the horse commander would attack the mountain first, and we would follow behind, and when the two groups of beast demons were almost beaten, they would attack and occupy the holy mountain. ”

"Occupy the Holy Mountain?" Lin Chen wondered in his heart, "There should be more than a few beasts and demons in such a large Empty Pure Mountain, and after defeating the Holy Mountain, it can't be defended." ”

"You don't know. The adjutant smiled on the side, "Ma Fengliu used to be the messenger of the holy mountain of Kongjing Mountain, but then the old witch occupied the holy mountain, so he had no choice but to flee." After our army occupies Kongjing Mountain and kills the old witch, the horse commander will come forward to pacify the demons, and the horse commander of the beast demon has already arranged it, and there will be a beast demon who will support him as the guardian saint of this holy mountain. ”

Lin Chen understood at this moment, it turned out that this battle came about like this, but he didn't know whether the adjutant in the mouth of the Ma Merry Horse Commander planned to use the human army to achieve his own goals, or whether he really wanted to make friends with the human race and benefit each other.

"Do you think what the third prince and this adjutant said is true?" the little blind man asked in Lin Chen's heart.

"There's no reason for them to lie to me, and of course I'm referring to the general story, not the details. ”

"But don't you think it's strange why they told you this, and you didn't ask about the previous things, and those two people just talked and talked about it. ”

"I didn't understand it at first, but after listening to it a lot, I came back to it. ”

"Tell me, talk about it. The little blind man was curious.

They talked for a long time, just to tell me how smart and wise, decisive and keen, hard-working, and indomitable in danger of danger, the most important thing is that the third prince is doing this to solve problems for his father, Emperor Shangguo. ”

"So what?"

"Stupid, I'm not his Lao Tzu, then in their hearts, I am the one who can spread these words to the ears of his emperor Lao Tzu. But so many soldiers, when they go back, who won't say anything outside, why bother talking to me, then there is only one possibility, he thinks I am a person sent by the emperor, in short, they recognize the wrong person. ”

"You humans have really complex brains, and although you don't know much about it, you seem to be very powerful. ”

Seeing that the little blind man still didn't understand, Lin Chen turned to the adjutant and said, "I said Adjutant Wang, how long have you been in this Empty Pure Mountain?"

The adjutant pondered for a moment and replied, "It's been about ten days." ”

"It's been more than ten days, and you don't have any plans to retreat after entering the mountains and seeing the demons?"

The adjutant was stunned for a moment, as if he thought of something, and immediately looked serious, arched his hand in one direction, and said: "For Your Majesty, for the people of the imperial capital to solve the drinking water problem, the third prince taught us to die without regrets!"

When the soldiers next to him heard this, they all raised their weapons one after another and shouted: "No regrets for dying! No regrets for dying!"

Lin Chen listened to the call of the soldiers, and he was also emotional for a while, it seems that he risked his life to break the ice falling situation, and the sergeants he saved were all well-known men.

After sighing, Lin Chen whispered to the adjutant: "The third prince and the adjutant Wang are really the pillars of the imperial court, full of enthusiasm, when I go back, I will definitely return to the imperial ......."

Speaking of this, Lin Chen coughed dryly twice, and then changed his words: "You must inform the people of the imperial capital of your deeds, there is a good prince in our court, and there is a good general in our army." ”

Hearing Lin Chen's words, the adjutant was overjoyed and whispered to Lin Chen: "Then thank Special Envoy Lin...... Oh no, little brother Lin. ”

After speaking, the two looked at each other and smiled.

The little blind man suddenly realized in Lin Chen's mind.

But looking at Lin Chen again, I found that Lin Chen secretly wrote in the notebook in his mind, "The fifth rule of cultivation for supporting roles, sometimes the important thing in supporting roles is not who you think you are, the important thing is to play who others think you are." ”

The little blind man looked at it and said disdainfully: "Don't call it the law of cultivation at all, I'll help you change your name, how about the classic spit quotations called Lin Chen." ”

"It's just that whether this horse is credible or not, if it weren't for Little Brother Lin just now, we would have been wiped out. The adjutant on the side suddenly spoke, as if he was suspicious of Ma Fengliu.

"I believe in Commander Ma, there is no suspicion in employing people, if Commander Ma wants to harm us, there is no need to wait until now. "The third prince surprisingly believed in Ma Fengliu's loyalty.

"I think so too. Lin Chen said, "As far as I know, this ice fall is completely natural, not controllable by man, and it only happened once a few days ago, maybe Commander Ma didn't expect to come again so soon." ”

"Even Lin Chen's little brother said so, and this matter should not be mentioned again. "The Three Princes ordered.

Lin Chen looked at the three princes, and thought to himself, it seems that he has the courage to enter this empty pure mountain, and he can endure this hardship, and the army can also use his life, even if he is a great achievement, he has no other plans, and these three princes have to be said to be a talent. It's just that such a person, if he becomes an emperor in the future, it will be a blessing or a curse for the people, but it is not necessarily.

Thinking of this, Lin Chen shook his head and scolded himself, who is the emperor and doesn't have the final say, what kind of garlic is it here.

......

After the black clouds on the mountainside dispersed, the figure of the human army was gradually revealed, and after seeing it from afar, Ma Fengliu was excited, he never expected that the two thousand sergeants seemed to be unharmed, and this was really his own life.

But now is not the time to sigh, Ma Fengliu accelerated and rushed in the direction of the army.

"It's the Horse Commander!"

"Report! Third Prince, Commander Ma is back!" The spies in the army immediately reported the matter to the Third Prince.

"Come soon. ”

It's just that the words are not finished, and Ma Fengliu has already come closer.

After Ma Fengliu arrived, he immediately knelt on one knee, hugged his fists and said to the three princes: "Ma Fengliu deserves death, I didn't expect that there would be abnormal weather today, almost affecting the three princes and all the soldiers." Fortunately, the three princes are blessed by heaven. ”

"Commander Ma doesn't have to be like this, the air is determined by heaven, things are man-made, not only do we have no loss, but we enjoy the wonder of rain, which is really wonderful. The third prince stepped forward and stretched out his hand to help Ma Fengliu.

"Didn't the ice fall in the rain?" asked Ma Fengliu in surprise.

"Then thank you to our little brother Lin. The third prince said happily.

"Little Brother Lin?" Ma Feng turned his eyes and saw Lin Chen carried by several soldiers, "This is?"

As soon as the third prince made a look, Adjutant Wang approached Ma Fengliu's side and said in a low voice: "This person is a messenger sent by the emperor, who secretly observed our operation, don't offend, the effect of this plan depends on him to go back to the emperor." ”

When Ma Fengliu heard this, he looked at Lin Chen more carefully.

After a while, Ma Fengliu pointed at Lin Chen and shouted: "This person, it's not right!"
