In the summer, a uniform cavalry troop escorted more than ten large carriages along the official road until they came to a stretch of green mountains.

The black leather armor on the leading young general looked a little shiny in the sun. Under his instructions, more than thirty reconnaissance cavalry galloped out, divided into three columns, and headed towards the mountain gorge road in front and the mountains on both sides.

As he left, a whistle indicating that nothing unusual was heard soon came back.

The young general in black armor frowned, thinking deeply. He didn't know what he was thinking about that annoyed him, and an unhappy look appeared on his face.

Hearing the whistle of the scout cavalry, the young general in black armor clenched his fist and made an upward movement, and the entire team began to march forward in an orderly manner. At this moment, the young general in black armor suddenly looked back.

The door curtain of a carriage behind him opened, and Lin Xi, dressed in a clean blue shirt, stepped out, looked at him and smiled.

The black-armored young general, who had a vaguely unhappy look on his face, suddenly showed a look of respect. The reins in his hands were slightly pulled back, and the horse under his seat slowed down a little. Then he came to Lin Xi's side, bowed slightly and said: "Master Lin, we are as far away as the east.

There is still more than half a day to go to the mausoleum, so you can rest at ease.”

"I know." Lin Xi looked at the captain, smiled and nodded, "I just came out to get some air and have a few words with you."

The young general in black armor said respectfully: "If you want to talk to me, sir, just ask me to come into the carriage to talk. After all, it is more dangerous to show your face outside."

Lin Xi smiled and glanced at the densely packed cavalry in front and behind, then at the dozen or so carriages in front and behind, and said softly: "General Gu asked so many of you to escort me with so much ordnance. Isn't it safe enough?"

The black-armored young general responded seriously: "Mr. Lin, General Gu personally issued an order. You have a special status. On the battlefield, you can use both swords and spears. But when you are not on the battlefield, in the territory of Yunqin, you are hard to guard against hidden arrows.

I don’t know how many lurking spies and assassins there will be, which will be detrimental to you."

Lin Xi smiled and said: "Maybe it's not just Damang people, there may be many 'my own people' who will be unfavorable to me, right?"

The black-armored young general's face froze slightly, and then he bowed to Lin Xi again and said in a deep voice: "Mr. Lin, no matter who is harmful to you, those people are our enemies."

Lin Xi shook her head and laughed at herself: "I am not a military general, nor am I in the court. I am not even an official of Yunqin. You have worked so hard for me, but it is a bit beyond the treatment."

The young general in black armor said respectfully: "Mr. Lin, no matter what your status is, we are soldiers, and we must strictly implement the orders from the top. Since we have received the order to send you safely to Rudong Ling, and more importantly,

, All the brothers on the front line respect you extremely. If something happens to you, sir, while we are escorting you, we really have no choice but to die to apologize, otherwise we will have no shame in going back to face them."

"Don't worry, I'm not a weak flower, nothing will happen to me."

Lin Xi looked at the captain who was extremely respectful and stubborn to her, smiled again, and said softly: "You just said that my identity is a bit special. Tell me honestly, what is the outside world's view of me now, and how special is it...

This is about my judgment and my safety."

The black-armored young general hesitated for a moment and reported in a serious voice: "There are rumors from the outside world that you, Mr. Lin, may have the same cultivation potential as Dean Zhang... As for your identity, it is rare even for Qingluan Academy.

See the 'general god'."

"It turns out that I am no longer the Chosen One or the Windrunner of Qingluan Academy. I am already said to be a general." Lin Xi couldn't help but shook his head and said to himself: "It seems that Wenren Cang Yue and Da Mang are spreading this kind of news.

We have put a lot of effort into the news."

The young general in black armor hesitated again, as if he wanted to ask something, but in the end he closed his mouth and did not ask anything.

Lin Xi could see the meaning in his eyes, smiled slightly, nodded and said: "The more this happens, the more people will be brought to me who want to deal with me. Although my cultivation level is not high, in many cases

We are still weak in people's eyes... Let's get back to the subject, since General Gu and you all know that my whereabouts in the empire are no longer secret, walking openly in the empire may be more dangerous than walking on the battlefield, and I will encounter encounters.

If there are more assassinations, do you have enough power to protect me?"

"I mean, if you encounter a great national master, or even a holy master... do you have anything to resist?" After a slight pause, Lin Xi looked at the black-armored young general and said softly.

"have."

The black-armored young general did not hesitate and said softly: "Sir, among our eight hundred cavalry troops, there are fifteen people from the Black Flag Army. Among the other carriages, eight have just arrived at the front line. We Yunqin are in Chuanshan."

On the basis of the crossbow machine, the improved mountain-breaking crossbow machine can shoot three crossbow arrows at a time, and its speed and power are even greater. Together with us, these should be enough to cope with the practitioners of the great country's master level. As for the holy master... we have two

There is a net-throwing machine modified by our dragon and snake craftsmen. The net is extremely poisonous. There are also three people wearing Qingluan heavy armor in the carriage. Now there are two extremely fast horses in the team, "Zhuri" and "Xiangyun".

It shouldn't be a problem for a fast horse to entangle the Holy Master and let you escape, sir."

"The strongest ballistae, net-throwing ordnance, Yunqin's strongest heavy armor, and fast horses can only entangle the Holy Master... The Holy Master's combat power is still too powerful after all." Lin Xi sighed softly, but then

He smiled, looked at the stern and dignified school captain, and said: "It's just that the holy master-level practitioners in Yunqin all have names. As long as they take action, they will be known. As for the holy master of Da Mang,

If you want to fight an army openly, I'm afraid you don't have the courage. Especially after taking action, I'm afraid you won't be able to escape back to Damang. Damang may not be willing to pay such a price. After all, their holy master died in the past two years.

There are already too many. Especially after destroying most of the Thousand Demon Cave, it is equivalent to cutting off the source of many holy masters. Therefore, the chance of encountering a holy master is not high. The most likely possibility is that it is a variety of plots.

."

The young general in black armor nodded calmly. When he heard that Lin Xi thought so carefully, he admired Lin Xi even more and at the same time he felt slightly relieved and said: "I think so too."

At this time, the team was approaching the mouth of the gorge. Lin Xi raised his head slightly and looked at the green mountains on both sides. The cool mountain breeze blew from the mountains and forests.

"You want to kill me... You have already announced outside that I may have the talent of a general... In this case, I can't let them down at all costs, but I also want to show them how powerful I am... Let them understand the awe that Qingluan Academy talks about."

At this moment, Lin Xi smiled and whispered something that only the young general in black armor could hear.

The young general in black armor frowned slightly. He didn't understand why Lin Xi suddenly said such a sentence.

"What's the range of those mountain-breaking crossbows? They should be able to shoot to the top of this mountain easily, right?" Just as he turned around, Lin Xi said this softly again.

He saw Lin Xi's eyes falling on the green hill on the left side of the official road.

"The shot can reach a height of seven hundred steps. This green mountain is only four hundred steps high, so it's okay." The young general in black armor was puzzled, but he immediately answered seriously.

Lin Xi then said softly: "The crossbow is hidden in the car, and the crossbow arrow exit should be facing the window? Because if the opponent rushes into the formation, it is always easier to rush into the formation from the side than from the front all the way to the middle. It should be possible in

Adjust it inside...aim and shoot, right?"

The body of the black-armored young general was slightly shaken.

The situation of the ballista hidden in the car was exactly as Lin Xi guessed at that moment.

"Yes!" He immediately nodded and responded.

"Someone will ambush us at the mouth of this gorge." Lin Xi smiled slightly and said.

The young general in black armor looked cold and said softly: "The reconnaissance army has already conducted reconnaissance..."

Lin Xi shook his head and said: "Since you are a member of the Dragon and Snake Frontier Army, you should also know that if the reconnaissance army did not find it, it does not necessarily mean that there is really no one."

The young general in black armor took a deep breath and nodded, "Yes."

Lin Xi then said calmly: "To launch an attack, you don't necessarily need people to rush to kill...rolling logs and falling rocks can kill people. If we have made arrangements beforehand, just one person can roll down several giant trees and rocks weighing ten thousand kilograms. You

Have you seen the giant ape-like rock on the green hill on the left? The opponent is behind that rock."

The young general in black armor looked in disbelief at the place Lin Xi was talking about.

On the green mountain on the left, there is a huge rock lying on the cliff side, like an ape, weighing an unknown number of kilograms, and it looks like it cannot be pushed by human power at all.

Moreover, under the cover of trees, it was impossible to see clearly what was under the rock, let alone what was behind the rock.

"With so many crossbows being activated and the training being more precise, most of them should be able to land on the back of the rock. And the opponent didn't know there would be such a sudden blow, so they probably wouldn't have time to react." Lin Xi smiled slightly, looking at him in shock and disbelief.

The somewhat stunned captain reminded him softly: "If you don't have a better way to kill a powerful practitioner who should be a master of a great country, you'd better follow my suggestion and order the ballista to be adjusted immediately.

.This way we should have enough time before we reach the mouth of the gorge."

The eyes of the black-armored young general flashed violently, "Mr. Lin...is this the legendary talent of a general?"

Lin Xi looked at the frontier general who finally couldn't help but ask this question, and smiled, "If you trust my intuition, you can try it."

The young general in black armor bowed, said nothing more, and quickly shuttled through the ranks on horseback.

…

The top of the green mountain.

Behind the boulder, stood a middle-aged and bearded man wearing a moon-white gown.

This middle-aged and bearded man with a gentle face and a calm expression was in the thatched cottage of Seizing the Moon City. All his disciples prevented him from entering Yunqin to pursue Lin Xi, but he insisted on entering Yunqin and attacked Lin Xi.

The disciples received the last lesson, telling them why they wanted to pursue Lin Xi and why he knew he could kill Lin Xi.

The fact that he was able to appear here very quickly, and that he was able to lay out a killing situation waiting for Lin Xi, already showed that he was much stronger than the average Da Mang cultivator.

Powerful, not just in terms of practice.

If you want to kill someone, you don't necessarily have to rely on soul power to fight.

There seemed to be no abnormality among the dead leaves under his feet, but there were several vine ropes buried. As long as he used force to break these vine ropes, a giant tree would rush towards him and hit the piece of wood in front of him that was originally even

It is on a boulder that even the Holy Master cannot push, and then this boulder that has been tampered with by him will fall, crushing several carriages into pieces.

The army and carriages that became increasingly clear in his sight had arrived at the mouth of the gorge, and he was only one step away from success.

And he also knows how to choose, and has no tangle in his heart... It would be best if he could capture Lin Xi alive. Maybe he could force out his cultivation method, but if there is no hope of capturing Lin Xi alive, kill him, and then try to get Lin Xi's weapon

The sword is already very good to him.

If you can get it, take it. If you can't get it, don't be greedy. If you want too much and can't get it, you will have troubles. This is what he said to his students when he was teaching.

People who are not greedy are more likely to succeed... However, at this moment, when he was only one step away from the successful implementation of his plan, he suddenly felt a chilling tremor suddenly appeared in the world.

Then he saw metal streams of light that were too fast for his perception to fall from the sky!
