Several people came outside the tent.

It can be seen that the accompanying soldiers of the Hu army are more or less nervous.

Although Wu Liang did not let Yang Wanli and others publicize the "Yin soldiers crossing the border" and tried to avoid contact with people from Le'an country, they still heard some related rumors after entering Le'an country.

Living in this era, they may not be afraid of fighting with others, but they are very taboo about such ghostly things.

"Master, look, it's over there."

Yang Wanli led Wu Liang to the front, pointed to a mountain ridge outside the depression and said.

On the mountain ridge was the path that the Hu army had walked during the day. On the path, a group of men and horses with burning torches were walking toward them. The torches were lined up in a row, like a line winding along the path.

Fire snake.

Wu Liang estimated that the size of this team should be several hundred people, at least no less than two hundred.

However, this group of troops was still three miles away from the depression where the Hu troops were stationed. Wu Liang could only see the "Fire Snake", but could not see the faces of this group of troops.

"How do you tell if they are Yin soldiers?"

Wu Liang looked back at Yang Wanli and asked.

"The secret sentry we sent out peed his pants and came back to report. The secret sentry saw their faces and said that these Yin soldiers were all wearing uniform black robes and had ferocious bronze masks on their faces. They were walking at the front.

People are also holding up ghost-calling flags and mourning sticks, but they don’t look like things from the earthly world..."

Yang Wanli said nervously.

"So our secret sentry should have been very close to these Yin soldiers at that time, but these Yin soldiers didn't notice him and let him run back?"

Wu Liang frowned slightly and asked again.

"this……"

Yang Wanli was stunned when he was asked, and he didn't know how to answer.

This is indeed a problem. The Yin soldiers are ghost soldiers who came down from the ground. Although I don’t know how these ghost soldiers seek their lives, it is not possible for living people to hide and run away if they want to, let alone

At a distance where you can see clearly, it's incredible.

Yu Ji, who came over to check on the situation at some unknown time, also interjected with a wrinkled old face: "Perhaps these Yin soldiers let him run away on purpose, so that they can follow the Yang energy in him to find us?"

"..."

Upon hearing this, Yang Wanli and several officers immediately thought it was true, and their faces became even more nervous.

"The Yin soldiers came to claim their lives, but they still need to find a living person to lead the way? Then the Yin soldiers are too weak, right?"

Wu Liang asked again.

"this……"

Yu Ji was also questioned by Wu Liang. After hesitating for a moment, he finally persuaded him earnestly, "Sir, no matter what, we should lead the people to escape quickly. If it is true that the evil soldiers are crossing the border, we will have to explain clearly here."

"If it is true that the Yin soldiers came to demand your life, are you sure you can escape?"

Wu Liang asked again.

The Hu army only brought fifty people with them on this trip, including Wu Liang, Yu Ji, Bai Jingjing, and Dian Wei, who were about fifty people. They were also accompanied by some carriages carrying supplies.

Unless they immediately abandon all their supplies and run away? Otherwise, not to mention the evil soldiers coming to seek their lives? Even if they are pursued by ordinary soldiers and horses, they will not be able to escape.

Moreover, these materials cannot be discarded easily.

Except for some supplies used for tomb robbing, the rest are all supplies closely related to food, clothing, housing and transportation? It’s just the New Year and it’s still freezing cold? It’s hard to get anything. If these accompanying supplies are discarded? What will happen to their lives in the future?

It's extremely difficult. Even if you escape and return immediately? You may not be able to go back smoothly.

besides.

Based on some details that he had found out before, Wu Liangzhong had already made a judgment on these "shady soldiers". Ninety-nine percent of them were thugs sent by "Shou Cao Dao" to pretend to be magic and rob the supplies, but he was not yet sure how to obtain them.

Just learned their whereabouts...

In fact, this is not difficult to imagine.

Although the Hu people's army acted as low-key as possible after entering Le'an country, there are always people wherever there are roads. Where there are people, there may be "Shou Caodao" informants? As long as these informants see the people of the Hu people's army,

The carriage can already inform the superiors.

After all, horses themselves are very expensive commodities these days.

As for them, even if they barely get rid of this "yin soldier", they are still within the sphere of influence of "Shou Caodao". What if they refuse to let go of the Hu army? The Hu army has no supplies and can escape.

The chances will only become slimmer.

"..."

Hearing this question? Everyone fell silent.

At this time, Wu Liangcai finally said to Yang Wanli and others: "Don't panic. First, order people to extinguish all the open fires in the camp. Then take out the realgar we brought this time and get a bucket to dissolve it with water. Then order our people

Apply the dissolved red water under the eyes, nostrils, ear holes and mouth? The thicker the better."

The realgar of this era was not very pure? It contained many impurities.

Therefore, realgar is not orange-yellow like in later generations, but deep red or orange-red like cinnabar.

After encountering such a group of corpse-eating insects in the tomb of Marquis Haihun last time, Wu Liang was frightened and kept a cautious eye. This time he specially brought some realgar to deal with the poisonous snakes and poisonous insects that might appear in the tomb.

Unexpectedly, before the tomb was found, it would come in handy here.

"yes!"

Now that the situation was urgent, Yang Wanli and others looked surprised after hearing Wu Liang's words, but out of trust in him they didn't ask any more questions and hurriedly went down to follow the instructions.

"Sir, why are you doing this?"

Only Yu Ji, who had nothing to do, couldn't help but ask.

"Old sir, I'm afraid I'm going to have to work hard on you again this time..."

Wu Liang did not answer, but looked at Yu Ji with a smile and said.

"Xin, thank you for your hard work, old man?"

An ominous premonition came to mind, and Yu Ji subconsciously took a step back.

"Come here, I will secretly teach you a 'magic technique'. Once you use this 'magic technique', not to mention these underhanded soldiers, all the monsters in the world will bow to you."

Wu Liang lowered his voice and said.

"Is there such magic in the world?"

Yu Ji immediately became interested and hurriedly came over and said, "Master, I should have told you earlier. If I knew that Master had such miraculous skills, why should I be worried?"

…

at the same time.

"General, why did all the open flames over there suddenly go out?"

One of the "Yin Soldiers" holding a mourning stick approached the person walking in front next to the ghost-calling flag, and lowered his voice and asked in confusion.

"No need to ask. Either he wants to escape in the dark, or he is afraid of alerting us 'sinisters'."

The man called "General" snorted and said angrily, "Tell the brothers to speed up and never let them escape. As usual, go up and kill them without saying a word, so as not to let any fish slip through the net."

If we find any clues, it will spread out and ruin our identity as 'Yin Soldiers'."

"yes!"

The man holding the mourning stick hurriedly went down to deliver the order.

However, he did not shout, but passed the order down one person at a time.

This is actually just one of the "Yin Soldiers" teams under "Shou Caodao". There are eight other teams of the same size.

Every night, these nine teams of Yin soldiers scattered in various places will go out, spreading the strange stories of "Yin soldiers crossing the border" in Le'an Kingdom, and burning, killing and looting to seek contributions to the "Shou Cao Dao".

The leader of the "Yin Soldiers" team is internally called "Yin Soldier General", so his subordinates usually call him "General".

The general of this "yin army" is named Han Cheng.

Han Cheng received a report from his subordinates in the evening, saying that a small caravan had entered the mountainous area along the path. The caravan had a total of nine carriages.

Han Cheng is a local and knows that this path is relatively long and it will be impossible to walk out for a while.

The caravan only entered the mountainous area in the evening and would definitely find a place to camp and rest at night, so he was not in a hurry and waited until dark before leading his disguised men to follow them along the path.

really.

After walking for a while, they found some open flames in a depression beside the road.

I think this is where the caravan camped.

Han Cheng's heart was already excited. Putting aside everything else, the nine carriages were nine horses. These nine horses alone were already a considerable contribution.

As long as this thing is done, he will have made a great contribution.

The "Celestial Master" will definitely reward him heavily. Not only can he get the panacea from the "Celestial Master", but he may also be able to get a horse and become the first "Yin Bing General" to ride on a tall horse. The remaining

The eight "Yin Soldier Generals" at the same level as him can only envy him.
