Chapter 31: The Variables Again

"The Central Plains is indeed a vast land with abundant resources and outstanding people." Lin Li said to himself in his heart:

"I was in a secluded place on an island before. When I looked back, I was really like a frog in the well. Now it seems that if you survive a disaster, you will be blessed later. The same is true for this aura. When it reaches its peak, it must decline, and when it declines, it must flourish.

I have made up my mind to seek refuge with Mr. Lin this time, but maybe I will get it wrong and I will be able to bring him back to life!"

Now that he had made up his mind, Lin Li stopped being polite and took a Sea King Pill. He immediately felt that the strong vitality surged in like a tide, and his already weak body immediately seemed to have been hit.

It's like a shot in the arm, and many hidden wounds are being repaired quickly. If there is boiling water flowing back and forth among the limbs and bones, it is hot, as if it is washing the meridians.

Lin Li closed his eyes, and after a long while he exhaled a long breath and said:

"What a pill! It really seems like it can change a person's life."

Lin Fengjin nodded with a smile and said:

"Shuxue Dan can regulate the soul. If you want to get the best effect, sir, you can use human milk as a primer before going to bed and take this medicine."

Lin Li nodded and said cautiously after a while:

"What do you think of the dirty Central Plains dragon vein?"

Lin Fengjin glanced at Lin Li and said:

"Of course this will not be tolerated! If the dragon veins of the Central Plains are tainted, it will be in vain to benefit the demons or monsters! As long as I am still alive, I will never allow this to happen!"

Lin Li nodded and said:

"As far as I know, among the East China Sea Allied Forces, the only ones who have the ability to successfully develop the method of defiling dragon veins, apart from me, are the Huwatu brothers. Although the route they are taking seems wrong now, once

After waking up, it is very likely to return to the right path. It is also possible to threaten the Dragon Veins of the Central Plains..."

Lin Fengjin nodded and said:

"What do you mean?"

There was a flash of anger in Lin Li's eyebrows:

"Kill them, and of course everything will be settled once and for all."

Lin Fengjin muttered:

"This is a good suggestion, but aren't the Huvato brothers gaining power among the coalition forces now? They are surrounded by tens of thousands of troops, so killing them is probably not an easy task, right? Besides, sir, you fought with me before.

Almost all the insects were killed in the battle. Under such circumstances, can we still maintain the previous combat power? My husband told me in the future that it is of great use, and it has a useful body, but it cannot be thrown away lightly."

Lin Li said calmly:

"I don't know if you have ever heard the saying: turning decay into magic? The origin of the head-lowering technique. But it only uses some flowers, plants and insects to treat people's illnesses...Brother Huwatu's talent is

Yes, but they always adhere to the inheritance of their predecessors. If they don't know how to introduce new ideas and draw inferences from one example, they will not be able to cross the boundary between masters and craftsmen. It won't be too difficult to kill them.

"

"Besides, my identity in this body is still there. I am still a priest after all. I can enter and leave the camp without any effort. Thanks to the master's elixir, I will be able to return to 80% of the strength I had in my heyday in a few days. I can calculate it with my mind but without my mind.

, it can be said that we are 80% sure. If the young master can give another drop of the venom of the True Dragon King, then we will be 100% sure of killing them."

That's the beauty of dealing with smart people.

Lin Li took Lin Fengjin's elixir. He also knew clearly in his heart that if he could not submit a certificate of surrender, then Lin Fengjin would not confide in him. Under such circumstances, Lin Li was very straightforward.

The suggestion to kill the Huwatu brothers was obviously the result of careful consideration. Both parties knew that this was a surrender letter and understood it. For Lin Li, if Lin Fengjin asked him to kill Huwatu,

If Brother Tu is the case, then he will appear passive.

Because the wild boar's arm was broken before, we have to find a way to heal it here. Although the magical power to regenerate a broken limb is very expensive and takes a day or two to prepare, it is only a drop in the bucket for the Lin family.

, it is not difficult to call in relevant Qi refiners.

However, after using the magical power to regenerate severed limbs, in order to avoid any sequelae, it is still necessary to observe carefully and recuperate for a few days, so Lin Fengjin and the others cannot leave yet.

However, Lin Fengjin came to Dongxia for two purposes: first, to find the son of his employer and remove the last seal in his body. At this time, he had another target to kill the Huwatu brothers. Fortunately, these two

Nothing is an urgent matter, so it doesn't matter if you wait a few days.

Under Lin Fengjin's elixir, Lin Li recovered quickly and began to go shopping for some necessary things. He Bo stayed with Lin Fengjin as a companion to familiarize himself with the customs of the Central Plains.

Besides geography and human relations, I didn’t expect that on the third day, another group of people came to the inn, saying they were looking for Lin Fengjin. When Lin Fengjin came out to take a look, he realized that the person who came was not someone else. He was still from Chiqi.

Selected among them to serve as his own bodyguards.

It turned out that Mr. Lin heard that the countries in the East China Sea began to concentrate their forces to invade the East Xia sea area, and he was quite worried. He felt that his son only brought twenty or thirty companions with him, which was too few. It happened that Wu Zuocheng also sent goods over at this time.

, there were people from the Red Cavalry accompanying them, and the two hit it off immediately, and immediately sent more than a hundred dead soldiers to guard Lin Fengjin, but they came day and night, and Lin Fengjin happened to be delayed here in Gaiping.

Within a few days, I caught up with him.

Now that everyone has arrived, Lin Fengjin has no choice but to accept them all. At this time, there are more than a hundred Red Riders around him. This can be regarded as a quite amazing force. Wait

After the wild boar was almost healed, Lin Fengjin parted ways with his caravan.

At this time, he also asked Mr. Jiuyuan's old servant Liu Bo for a clear explanation. He knew that the son of the Dong family was living in seclusion in Shangqiang County in Eastern Xia, which was still hundreds of miles away. Fortunately, in their line of work

People had already made preparations for the long journey, and the road guides and other things had been arranged very well, so they set off the next day.

When he was in Gaiping, Lin Li's injuries were almost healed, and the remaining "soul and body did not belong" could only be adjusted slowly. He also gave a lot of good things.

The most valuable among them are the eight "Suwo Messengers" in a dormant and frozen state!

Among the eight Su Wo messengers, five were allocated to Lin Li. The purpose was to allow him to sacrifice himself at the last moment and become a divine messenger. Lin Fengjin was also secretly stunned after hearing this. The great priest was indeed

It's a bit more awesome. When you sacrifice yourself, you have to take five Su Wo messengers with you. According to Lin Fengjin's understanding, usually one sacrifice is enough. It seems that after a great priest sacrifices himself,

The person summoned is probably not a divine envoy. Maybe it is a clone of the relevant deity.

These eight Su Wo messengers gave Lin Fengjin a full hundred square meters of merit value. Adding the remaining twenty square meters of merit value, Lin Fengjin's merit value once again exceeded three digits.

Next, Lin Li contributed three puppet Gu. After these three puppet Gu are seriously injured, if swallowed, they can quickly carry out targeted repairs, such as the heart being punctured. The puppet Gu will

After being able to suck blood, it can quickly simulate the function of the heart, replace the heart's operation for a period of time, and the blood vessels and arteries will be punctured. The puppet Gu can be attached to temporarily stop bleeding... This thing is like tiger balm, what's the point?

An emergency situation refers to any emergency situation that can be responded to.

The shortcomings are not without, that is, it can only treat the symptoms. It cannot cure the root cause. The purpose of Puppet Gu is to "replace" and "copycat", not to cure. Once activated, Puppet Gu's life span is only three days at most.

After the puppet Gu dies, if the condition of the injured organs in your body does not improve and the functions do not recover, then you will have no choice but to wait for death.

The last two Gu worms that Lin Li took out were called "Marriage Gu", but Lin Fengjin felt that the Gu worms he took out could be said to be the most valuable thing and of great strategic significance.

This marriage poison has nothing to do with love, nor is it an aphrodisiac that makes ladies become sluts after taking it, but it means "a thousand-mile marriage is tied by a thread".

To put it bluntly, the function of this marriage Gu is: long-distance communication in a short period of time!

After you activate the marriage Gu, say something to the male Gu, and the Gu will record it. Then after releasing the male Gu, you can go to the female Gu in a short time, even if it is a male and female Gu.

The same is true for being thousands of miles apart, but this is because the male Gu has the ability to travel through the bardo. After the male Gu arrives at the female Gu, the recipient pours some wine on the male Gu, and the male Gu can repeat the message you want to bring.

.

In this era when long-distance communication methods are extremely scarce, compared to magical powers such as "Water Mirror Technique", which have huge restrictions and demanding requirements, the role played by the Marriage Gu can be said to be irreplaceable!

And according to what Lin Li said, even among the East China Sea Allied Forces, Marriage Gu has not been used. That is because when refining Marriage Gu, a large amount of top-quality cinnabar is needed. Not only that, even when refining

After success, the Marriage Gu must also feed on the prepared top-quality cinnabar, otherwise, it will not die too quickly.

Things like cinnabar are not common in the first place, let alone the best cinnabar that contains spiritual energy? It is also something that can be encountered in the Central Plains. Fortunately, Gaiping is the second largest city in Eastern Xia, so Lin Li only found two of them.

A lot of materials. What’s more, refining the Marriage Gu was originally their Li Sect’s exclusive secret recipe?

In addition, Lin Fengjin also discussed other things with Lin Li. Of course, the most important one was the issue that Lin Li needed to believe in the God of Moufu among the gods of the East China Sea countries to practice the art of lowering his head.

What Lin Fengjin is worried about is that Lin Li is now "abandoning the dark and turning to the light" and turning against the countries of the East China Sea. Will this affect his personal ability, or even divine punishment? Lin Li told Lin Fengjin that there is no need to worry about this.

The matter is worrying. He himself is of the Central Plains lineage, but his ancestors were exiled there. It is natural to return to the Central Plains at this time. The gods of the East China Sea countries will not punish believers because of their place of origin.

Of course, the most important point is that the gods of the East China Sea countries are very realistic. They offer many offerings and sacrifices, so who will be favored? In fact, why can Lin Li (Dai Meng) become the great priest?

, it is inseparable from the fact that the old king who died before used the whole country to help him sacrifice and worship.

Since the new king came to the throne, the Huwatu brothers have made great contributions. Naturally, the new king's resources in this area will be inclined to them. That's why Dai Meng's sense of crisis was so heavy before, because if he didn't come up with an overwhelming force,

If his achievements continue at this rate, his position as a great priest will probably fall by the wayside.

Therefore, even if you offend the gods, as long as you give more offerings and sacrifices, everything will be fine. And because human life in the East China Sea countries is very cheap, they usually like to use human sacrifices.

Although it is expensive, the effect of human sacrifice is the worst.

According to Lin Li's description, the last time Yedao Kingdom used the whole nation to sacrifice for his personal sacrifice, it was only a thousand people, five hundred chickens and ducks, a hundred sheep, fifty cattle, and thirty horses.

This shows how worthless human life is among the countries in the East China Sea.

Lin Fengjin told Lin Li that it would be difficult for him to sacrifice a thousand people, but how effective would it be if he sacrificed the rest of the chickens, ducks, sheep, cows, and horses ten times as much?

Lin Li told Lin Fengjin straightforwardly that the gods of the East China Sea countries have long been indifferent to human sacrifices. Therefore, as long as you do not commit blasphemous acts in such a large-scale sacrifice, you will basically be punished for anything you do.

Protected by the gods... Listening to what Lin Li said, if it weren't for the great priest, it would be just a false name with no real benefits. Lin Fengjin wanted to sacrifice it just for fun.

Aren't they just cattle and sheep? Lin Fengjin almost didn't even know how to count the cattle and sheep under Wu Zuocheng's jurisdiction. If he wanted to, he could easily get tens of thousands of them.

Without the shackles of the caravan, which was a big burden, everyone could be said to be traveling very fast. And there were still people standing in front of them along the way, and they were traveling in the inland areas of Dongxia Kingdom, so it was only a short period of time.

In four days, we arrived at a place less than a hundred miles away from Shangqiang County.

However, after arriving here, I ran into a large wave of refugees. Of course, with the configuration of Lin Fengjin's team at this time, meeting these refugees was not like the caravans with burdens before. It was very simple.

Just ignore it and gallop over, but to be on the safe side, Lin Fengjin didn’t send someone back until he left the refugees to ask what happened.

However, the result was that Lin Fengjin frowned. It turned out that Shangqiang County was adjacent to Chagan Lake. Chagan Lake is part of the famous local Wudalian Lake and is closely related to the famous Wudalian Lake.

The Songjiang water system is connected, so it has been fully invaded by the East China Sea Allied Forces recently.

At this time, for the Dongxia people, these people in the East China Sea Allied Forces were already very vicious, burning, killing, looting, raping and plundering without any lower limit. In addition, at this time, the Huwatu brothers were still working tirelessly on ways to defile the dragon veins.

, and a large number of people were arrested to make sacrifices. The invaders seemed to have been demonized. In this case, it only aggravated the panic of the people. It can be said that they ran away after hearing the news, without any sense of resistance at all.

In some places, there were tragedies in which thousands of people were chased and massacred by dozens of soldiers from the East China Sea Alliance Army!

Of course, Lin Fengjin was helpless for such a matter. The key was that Shangqiang County was at least three hundred miles away from the coastline. Unexpectedly, it was also under the attack of the East China Sea Allied Forces. At this time, because of Lin

Li and Tabo's defection also gave them a certain understanding of the situation of the East China Sea Allied Forces at this time.

First of all, this attack on Dongxia Kingdom ostensibly gathered all the forces of the East China Sea countries, but in fact it was not the case. At this time, the soldiers of the East China Sea countries had been fighting continuously for nearly half a year, and the main elite main force was also quite exhausted.

, and also completed the initial plundering goal, so most of the main combat forces began to retreat back to the overseas bases on the major islands to rest and recover. By the way, they replenished the recruits brought from the country and reorganized them.

Fan.

Therefore, the force attacking Dongxia Kingdom this time was not as powerful as imagined.

Secondly, the strategic purpose of the East China Sea Allied Forces is also very clear. It mainly focuses on harassment and looting, and supplements it by attacking fortresses. It has no intention of destroying the country in one fell swoop. Instead, it bites the country like a hungry wolf, biting east and west, so that the country will not be able to survive.

The blood loss will stop and a large number of victims will be created, thereby consuming the national power of the Dongxia Kingdom. Of course, if there is a state or county that has weak defense but is very prosperous, it can also be used as a feint attack as the main attack and directly eat it.

What Lin Fengjin is worried about is that the East China Sea Allied Forces are not attacking Shangqiang County, but treating it as a "fat meat" like a prefecture and county that has weak defense but is very wealthy.

How can the eggs be laid? Once the city is broken, thousands of troops and horses will rush up, and there will be Red Flag Ben, priests and others mixed in. Faced with such a situation, unless one's personal strength reaches the level of the Snake God,

, otherwise you can only wait and run away.

The family that the son of the boss belongs to is called the Ji family. This kind of big family that has stayed in one place for hundreds of years is often intertwined. It is quite majestic in normal times. When the state and county magistrates come, they all want to pay a visit, but the war came over.

, the family has a big business and a large number of relatives, but this is the most difficult thing to let go of. And the wealth of such a big family must be astonishing, and it must be the focus of the enemy's attention. How can it be like a poor family?

He put some things in the dustpan and fled with his wife.

"You are really unlucky. How come you have come all the way to encounter something like this?" Lin Fengjin couldn't help but cursed.

At this time, Ta Bo was watching his words and saw what Lin Fengjin was worried about, so he comforted him:

"Young master, there is no need to be anxious. The East China Sea Allied Forces may not attack Shangqiang County first. Most of them will just harass. Even if their weakness is attacking the city, they may not be able to defeat the city in one fell swoop! Besides, this is not necessarily a bad thing.

, Young Master, you are here to ask for help. Such a big family must have high aspirations and arrogance, so they may not buy it. We rush there when rumors are spreading, and the other party may be grateful.

The chance of success is much greater."

After hearing what he said, Lin Fengjin nodded and led the people to continue driving for dozens of miles, but it started to rain again. This summer's rain came as soon as it came, and it was so torrential that I could only find a village.

Take a rest nearby.

It's a pity that this village looks quite big from the outside, but the people inside have heard the rumors a long time ago and fled. Only some old, weak, sick and disabled people who are unable to leave their hometown are left to look after the house. Lin Feng

Jin had more than a hundred guards around him and at least close to 200 horses, plus a few carriages. It was very troublesome to get everything done, and in the end there was no way to travel overnight.

Lin Fengjin thought about it in his mind and felt that what he said was very reasonable. Besides, even if Shangqiang County was regarded as a key target by the East China Sea Allied Forces, there were only two possibilities at this time, the city was broken, and the city was not broken!

If the city has been broken, then there is no point in rushing over at this time. If the city has not been broken, it is raining so heavily, and the coalition forces of the East China Sea countries are not good at attacking the city, then as long as the commander has a little sense, he will stop attacking the city and himself

There's no need to rush there.

Since this is the case, there is no point in worrying, it is best to rest in peace. Next, Lin Fengjin boiled two more pots of wine and invited an old man from the village to come and help with the household chores. Although this old man was eighty, he was still sharp and clear.

Yes, he also served as a head catcher in the county, and his speech was still good.

While talking, Lin Fengjin asked about the current situation of the magistrate of Shangqiang County, and finally got the answer that this person is called Zhou Po, he is quite capable, but he acts in a hurry. Shangqiang County was originally a famous land of plenty, and everyone

It was because he wanted to cater to his boss and exploited him very much. As a result, he had been in power for several years, and people's livelihood was in a state of decline. His reputation among the people was very poor, but he was very popular among his bosses.

Lin Fengjin frowned after hearing this. The way to defend the city is to work together and enforce orders and prohibitions. The county magistrate is not popular among the people, and his appeal is weak and his prestige is low. In addition, the old man Shi said that the county magistrate is submissive and has no independent opinion.

, and the big families in the city also tend to have their own way of doing things, so there will immediately be an internal fight for power, and what kind of fighting power can they talk about?

If he were the commander-in-chief of the East China Sea Allied Forces and encountered such a county town, he would first encircle it on all sides and find the weakest point, and then simply concentrate his elite forces and rush forward. As soon as he climbed onto the city wall, he would immediately throw torches and set fire to the city, while shouting:

The city is broken. In this case, even if there are reinforcements, as soon as the black smoke is seen, there is a series of sounds of breaking the city, and the other three gates are not surrounded, the city will be broken in one fell swoop! (To be continued, please search
