Chapter Seventy-Two: Hearing of the Conspiracy in the Midnight Counseling for Rescue
As expected, Qi Wannian's army had already withdrawn from Liangshan, leaving only a few thousand soldiers to garrison. After a day of fighting, most of the entire Liangshan has been occupied by the prince of the East Palace, and only the north peak remains, just because the weather is late, just waiting to be captured tomorrow.
It was already dark inside and outside the camp, and only the lights of the sentry posts were on. The heavens and the earth were silent, and the howls of unknown animals in the deep mountains were mixed with the footsteps of the patrolling teams in the great camp. Suddenly, two black shadows came out of the camp, each time in the direction between the two patrols, it seemed that they were very familiar with the position and time of the patrols, and after a moment they disappeared into the endless, dark and boundless wilderness.
These two figures are Lin Yi and Ge Hong.
"Your Highness, this vibration really came from the depths of the ground of this north peak, the further you go north, the more clear it is, Your Highness really knows everything and listens to all directions!" Ge Hong was very surprised.
"I also heard by accident that today at the top of the Eryu Peak, in addition to the camp built by the rebels, there are a lot of new earth and stones. I also heard from the local aborigines that these two peaks were originally two bare stone mountains, and the strange rocks on these stone mountains were craggy and there was no grass, but they were unthinkable in this short period of time, but they had a tendency to grow taller and taller. Only then did I suspect that someone had secretly dug up earth and buried them on this mountain. I don't know what the purpose of the road is, but I am afraid that it will not be able to escape from that Qi Wannian, although there are masters who cast spells to isolate this noise, but in the dead of night, I can still feel the vibration of the underground!" Lin Yi replied.
"There's someone in front! hide!" Lin Yi said suddenly, and hurriedly pulled Ge Hong to hide. After he opened his eyes, his vision was naturally extraordinary, even in such a dark night when he couldn't see his fingers, he could see people dozens of meters away.
A moment later, a group of rebels, probably in the hundreds, passed by them and headed straight for the north peak. However, I saw that some of them were pushing wheelbarrows, and some of them were erected in front and back, and the corpses on this cart and those rebels were actually those corpses! Some of them were the corpses of their rebel accomplices, and they even had the corpses of the Donggong pro-army who had never let go. But I don't know what their purpose is!
Lin Yi and Ge Hong took advantage of the fact that there were many people in the dark and also mixed into the team, and these people didn't know about it.
"I don't know what the purpose of the King of Lu Dao is, why he wants to defend this broken mountain, the court has many soldiers, how can we be its opponents! As long as we escape from this place, the world is not where the good men of our Qiang family come in, and they will make a comeback in the coming year. These brothers are really not worthy of their deaths, but the king has asked us to collect all their corpses, but we are not allowed to bury them, I really don't understand the purpose of this!" Lin Yi only heard a rebel in front of him whisper to his companions.
"Shhh
"This imperial army did not have a plan to feint to attack Chang'an, I heard that the great wizard Zhilu Dao was very angry, and it was the order of the great wizard to defend Liangshan, and the king has been returning from the surrounding day and night fast horses!" Another rebel continued, paused and lowered his voice: "I heard that the great wizard is a descendant of the white horse god, and his mana can't, so he can cut paper for a horse, scatter beans into soldiers, resurrect the dead, and regenerate the bones!"
"It turns out that this is the purpose for which we collected these corpses! No wonder the king is so confident and swearing! Those officers and soldiers will inevitably retreat without a fight when they see that their dead relatives and friends have suddenly come back to life and have become their enemies. It's a pity that our brothers won't be able to live in peace after they die!" the rebel whispered again.
Lin Yi was really shocked in his heart at this time, this is really important information, it seems that this Qi Wannian's ambition is not small, but it is because of the support of a lot of power behind it, no wonder Qi Wannian can be supported as the king.
If these dead bodies were to rise suddenly, Lin Yi's army would surely suffer heavy casualties. These are all elite troops of the lineage carefully cultivated by Lin Yi, and Lin Yi is heartbroken for every sacrifice of someone. How to minimize casualties and surrender without a fight is what he wants.
There were already lights in front of them, and it seemed that they were almost at the rebel camp in Beifeng, and they were only afraid that there would be a strict inspection post in front of them, and Lin Yi and Ge Hong had left this group of rebels unconsciously.
"Zhichuan, what do you think of this matter!" Lin Yi asked Ge Hongdao, these things have already involved the power of the cultivation realm, and Lin Yi is naturally the only one who can discuss.
"Your Highness, I have been familiar with all kinds of medical classics since I was a child, and there is a classic that records that there is a magical herb in the Western Regions, after the living take it, once they die, they can be resurrected within seven days by summoning the soul with their special exercises! In yesterday's battle, Qi Wannian seemed to have deliberately sent his rebels to death, but I am afraid that these rebels had already secretly added this herb to their diet! And the other corpses they were looking for were also a kind of Yin Secret Technique that they had refined, and the power was only even greater than that of these corpses that had come back from the dead!" Ge Hong replied.
"Although these Yin Soldiers are terrifying, they are not difficult to subdue. As long as we prepare more things to restrain these evil things, we will not go to those places at the bottom of the yin wind valley during the day, collect the troops as soon as possible, retreat the camp farther away from Liangshan, and strengthen patrols at night. Therefore, this is not what I am worried about, what I am worried about is the great wizard they just talked about, I am afraid that it is the bone demon White Bone Lady that we killed on the outskirts of Chang'an City before he died!
"Master has traveled all over the world, in addition to looking for elixir, but also to find this person, it is really to step on iron shoes and have nowhere to find, and it takes no effort to get there! I just happened to repair a book, and asked him to come and eliminate this evil for the world!" Ge Hong interjected.
"If that's the case, then great!" Lin Yi said happily. Zheng Yin's strength he has already seen with his own eyes, and his swordsmanship has already reached the realm of the unity of man and sword, no matter how high this White Bone Lady's cultivation is, he is afraid that he also has the strength to fight. After a pause, he continued: "It seems that we have to prepare for a long-term struggle here, Qi Wannian is going to make our dumplings, we will bite him back and surround him to help." But I'm really getting more and more curious now, what kind of conspiracy they are going on under this Liangshan, and why do they want to find a way to prevent us from breaking it!"
