Chapter 13: Discovered? Then kill them all
Picking up the Xuantie Knife handed over by Wei Yun, the first thing he felt was that it was heavy.
It looks exactly like an ordinary standard knife, but its weight is seven or eight times that of an ordinary standard knife. It is probably difficult for ordinary soldiers to even pick it up.
Uh-huh!
Li Dao twitched his right hand and unsheathed the blade. A sharp cold light came into view, and the sharpness was visible to the naked eye.
"Good knife!"
Compared with the ordinary sword he used before, this black iron sword couldn't be more suitable for him.
The knife was a killing knife, and combined with the violent wind sword technique he had figured out himself, he felt an urge to try it at this moment.
Li Dao raised his head and asked, "When will you leave?"
Wei Yun said bluntly, "If you leave early, tonight is the best time."
"Then what are you waiting for? Prepare your horses."
"..."
...
Outside Changgu Town.
The five people gathered together with Wei Yun.
"By the way, why do you want me to take this little lunatic away?"
Shen San was riding on the horse, and the little madman was tied not far behind him.
The little lunatic kept struggling at Shen San with his bared teeth, his saw teeth kept rubbing and biting, and he made a roar that made Shen San's scalp numb.
Wei Yun chuckled and said, "Because you are the most suitable."
Hearing this, Shen San looked at the other four people.
Needless to say, the leader, Li Dao, was the most afraid of the little lunatic after being educated and did not dare to approach him at all.
On the other side, Xu Hu was riding on a horse. Because he was too heavy, his whole back was occupied by his big butt. Seeing the horse struggling, he couldn't help but feel distressed.
As for the last old ghost, a man over a hundred years old seems to be blown away by a gust of wind. Can he withstand the torture of a little lunatic?
Looking at it, Shen San actually felt that he was the most suitable one.
"Forget it, that's it."
Shen San took it lightly, he was used to being cheated.
Wei Yun walked up to the horse Li Dao was riding, "I've given you the location mark. There is an 80% chance that they will pass by there tonight. If you speed up now, you should be able to intercept the team of Third Prince Luoyun."
"knew."
"Okay then, let's go quickly."
Li Dao looked back at Shen San and the others and flattered them, saying, "Let's go."
at the same time.
On an ancient road in the northern barbarian frontier.
A team of several hundred people rode horses slowly heading in one direction.
Among them, the leader was riding a blood-red horse and was a young man in gorgeous clothes.
This person is the third prince of the Luoyun Tribe who came to negotiate with the Tamu Tribe this time.
Next to him was a strong man wearing armor, who was the exclusive guard captain of the Third Prince Luoyun.
"Third Prince, do we really have to leave in such a hurry? Are you sure you don't want to tell the king?"
The captain of the guard said worriedly to the young man beside him.
The third prince Luoyun waved his hand and said with an indifferent expression, "There is no need to inform my father specifically about this matter. I can do everything myself. We just need to wait for the negotiations to be completed and go back to return to life with my father directly."
"But the Tamu tribe is close to the Dagan border fortress. If Dagan knows that we want to unite with the Tamu tribe, they will probably send people to target us."
"What are you afraid of? Our Luoyun tribe is also a large tribe. I don't believe that Daqian will take the lead in attacking me if we don't take action."
"But..."
What else the guard captain wanted to say was quickly interrupted.
"No more buts, there aren't that many buts. We just need to go to the Tamu tribe to negotiate the subsequent distribution of benefits and return home. It's very simple."
The third prince Luoyun didn't take the guard chief's words seriously at all.
At this time, he couldn't help but yawned, turned around and asked, "Guard Captain Jin Sheng, what time is it now?"
"Go back to Third Prince, it's half an hour before midnight."
"It's so late? Then ask the team to stop and set up camp in half an hour. I want to rest."
"Third Prince, I suggest that we should not stop on our way and go directly to the Tamu Tribe."
"But I'm sleepy."
"Third Prince..."
Jin Sheng wanted to say something else, but was interrupted by the third prince Luoyun raising his hand, "Jin Sheng, I just want to ask you if you can protect me?"
"able!"
Jin Sheng responded without hesitation.
As the third prince's guard chief, it is his responsibility to protect the third prince. If the third prince dies, he will die, and if the third prince lives, he can survive.
The third prince Luoyun smiled, "Since you are so confident, what's wrong with me taking a break?"
"I..."
Jin Sheng didn't know what to say for a moment. It was impossible for him to slap himself in the face.
In the end, he could only choose to bow his head and compromise.
Seeing this, the third prince Luoyun smiled proudly and immediately ordered, "We'll go for half an hour and everyone will camp where they are to rest."
"Yes, Third Prince."
Half an hour passed quickly.
The team of the Third Prince Luoyun also stopped on time and started to light a fire and set up camp on the spot.
It should be said that they are worthy of being nomads on the grassland.
In just one stick of incense, the camp was ready.
At this moment, behind a slope not far from the third prince Luoyun's camp.
Li Dao and five others gathered here.
"Fat man, is this the foolproof trap you mentioned?"
Looking at the target's camp in the distance, Li Dao turned back to look at Shen San.
Shen San looked innocent, "I didn't see them stopping and setting up camp."
Taking a look at the Third Prince Luoyun's camp, which was less than a hundred steps away from where he had set the trap, he couldn't help but curse in his heart.
Why stop?
Why not take a few more steps forward?
The old ghost was nagging at the side, "You little fat man, you wasted all my poison."
It's hard to say anything about Li Dao and Shen San, but for the old ghost, his main thing is to 'respect the elderly'.
"Waste of poison? What nonsense, poison that can't kill anyone?"
"My poison is not for killing people?"
"If poison doesn't kill people, is it still poison?"
"How about you try?"
"..."
Seeing the two starting to bicker, Li Dao kicked Shen San on the butt and said, "Shut up."
As for why you don't kick the old ghost?
An old man who is more than a hundred years old, he can't afford to kick people now if he is poor, and he might just kick everyone to death if he is not careful.
"The trap is useless. So, boss, what do you think we should do now? We can't wait until daytime tomorrow, because the probability of discovering the trap is too high."
Ever since he found out that Li Dao was the team leader, Shen San had always been the boss. He was obviously older than Li Dao, but his main job was to be a hugger.
"Don't wait until tomorrow."
"That..."
"Wait until they take a rest and then attack them at night."
Li Dao looked at the sky and decided immediately.
Night attack?
Shen San couldn't help but persuaded, "Boss, this is a team of three hundred people. I don't know if there are any masters in it. Is a night attack reliable? What if someone discovers it?"
"be found?"
Li Dao replied directly, "Then kill them all and no one will find out."
Shen San: "???"
Do you want to listen to what you are saying?
Finally, it was decided to attack at night.
The old ghost is responsible for administering the medicine, the little madman and Xu Hu are responsible for causing chaos after being discovered, and Li Dao is responsible for commanding.
As for Shen San, he successfully harvested the most important task.
Assassinate the third prince Luoyun.
But who is the best at Qinggong?
Of course, this is only on the surface.
Li Dao's main purpose is to use these more than 300 Northern Barbarian soldiers to harvest attributes.
"Boss, if I am caught, you must save me."
After learning that he was responsible for assassinating the third prince Luoyun, Shen San felt extremely nervous and said with a serious face.
In response, Li Dao stepped forward and patted Shen San on the shoulder, "Persistence is victory."
Time passes slowly.
As the night deepened, the camp where the third prince Luoyun was located gradually became quiet, leaving only a bunch of unextinguished bonfires burning at night.
Li Dao slowly approached the camp with a group of four people.
Because they were very careful and a few of them were quite agile, no one noticed their approach for a while.
"Old ghost, put some poison."
Li Dao turned around and said to the old ghost beside him.
"What kind of poison do you want? I have it..."
While talking about the old ghost, he tried to take out his bottles and jars, but was quickly stopped by Li Dao, "Don't worry about the poison, just the poison that can prevent these people from waking up."
"Then I understand, you want to..."
Seeing that the old ghost was about to continue talking, Li Dao decisively turned back to look at Shen San, "As soon as the old ghost finishes administering the medicine, go and assassinate him."
"Boss, don't leave me."
"I know, stop talking nonsense."
After saying that, Li Dao looked at Xu Hu and the little madman beside him.
For the time being, Xu Hu takes whatever he says and has no opinion.
As for the little lunatic, his mouth was tightly blocked by a ball of gauze. He wanted to struggle, but immediately fell silent under Li Dao's look.
"Xu Hu, watch the little lunatic and don't let him cause trouble."
"knew."
Xu Hu dragged the little lunatic over.
Maybe because they had eaten meat together before, the little lunatic didn't want to resist Xu Hu as much as Shen San. Although it was a little awkward, he didn't attack Xu Hu.
After a stick of incense.
The old ghost took out the prepared poison, stretched out his hand to test the night breeze, and then opened the bottle.
I saw a trace of light yellow gas drifting towards the camp along the direction of the wind.
After a few minutes passed, the old ghost nodded, "Almost."
"Although the preparation is hasty, as long as there is no big noise, these people will not wake up at all for a while."
Li Dao nodded and looked back at Shen San.
Shen San grimaced, nodded and took advantage of the darkness to escape into the camp.
Not to mention, although Shen San was fat, he was very flexible. With his own lightness skills, he quickly escaped into the camp.
Seeing that Shen San left smoothly, Li Dao thought that he would let the four of them leave first after Shen San assassinated the third prince Luoyun. He could stay and make a big fuss before leaving.
After all, it was important for him to complete the assassination mission.
But using Northern Barbarian soldiers to harvest attributes is more important.
Although Wei Yun said that he would not kill the donkey, he would not bet his life on the humanity of others.
Therefore, he will not give up every opportunity to improve his strength.
Time passed little by little.
Li Dao and the others have been waiting in a hidden place next to the military camp.
Suddenly, several voices sounded from the military camp.
"Who are you? Where are the guards?"
"Assassin! You are an assassin!"
"If you dare to assassinate our third prince, you will die."
Hearing these voices, Li Dao quickly understood that Shen San had been exposed.
"Old ghost, didn't you say your poison is fine?"
"It's no problem."
"Then why did Fatty make such a fuss?"
"Maybe the fat man is not messing with ordinary people."
"What's the meaning?"
"The poisons I just prepared can only be used against ordinary people."
Before Li Dao could say anything, a figure suddenly appeared beside him.
Li Dao subconsciously raised his hand to attack.
"Wait, it's me."
Only then did Li Dao see clearly that the person coming was Shen San.
"What's going on inside?"
"I don't know either. I just got close to the third prince's military tent, and someone discovered me. If I hadn't run fast, I might have been killed by that guy with a knife."
Shen San said with lingering fear on his face.
"What about the person who discovered you?"
"have no idea."
Suddenly, there was a noise in the military camp.
"Asshole, the assassins are here, you bastards are still sleeping, why don't you get up."
This huge and rough sound soon made the originally quiet camp noisy, and the sleeping soldiers also woke up one after another.
The group of people subconsciously looked at the old ghost.
The old ghost shook his head quickly, "My poison must be fine."
Suddenly, he raised his hand and tried it, and his expression suddenly changed, "No, the wind direction changed and the poison didn't blow in!"
Li Dao shook his head. It was indeed better to rely on others than to rely on yourself.
He pulled out the black iron sword from his waist, "Since this method doesn't work, let's use the second assassination method I mentioned before."
Shen San subconsciously asked, "What is the second assassination method?"
Li Dao said directly, "It is an assassination method that kills all the discoverers."
Shen San: "???"
To be honest, this was also Li Dao's initial thought.
If it weren't for the consideration of the three or four people in Shen, his absolute first choice would be to go up to it.
