Leader, Emperor Jin’s supplies have been delivered, why are you still in such a hurry to retreat!”
A group of elders who had just agreed to retreat immediately changed their minds and were blinded by the goods sent by the Queen!
"Yes, leader, although my subordinates agree to retreat, they must at least take over this batch of supplies. I am not willing to give up the supplies that are readily available to me!"
Ling Yang slowly walked to the side of the leader of the White Lotus: "The second elder and the eighth elder of the leader are right, if it is ordinary food and grass, forget it, but it contains the bows and arrows we dream of. As long as we get these three thousand bows and arrows,
We won't be so passive when facing the imperial army. Our inability to fight at a distance is still our shortcoming. How can we conquer cities and conquer villages in the future and accomplish the great cause of the White Lotus Sect with only some crudely made bows and arrows?"
The leader of the White Lotus looked a little struggling but also a little moved, vividly portraying the weaknesses of human nature.
While the tea was brewing, the leader of the White Lotus firmly shook his head: "Brothers, I am also distressed, but for the sake of our great cause, we must retreat. Send the order! Don't say any more words of advice, retreat!"
"Teacher, I have a suggestion that I hope the leader can give me some advice on!"
The leader of the White Lotus frowned, showing a hint of hidden murderous intent, but finally suppressed it.
The second elder and others could not see the murderous intention of the White Lotus Leader, but Qi Ya, who was standing next to the White Lotus Leader, could see the murderous intention clearly.
I can't help but feel a little scared and sad.
"Leader, you lead some brothers to retreat first, and your subordinates will lead some brothers to take over the supplies sent by Emperor Jin. Wouldn't it be nice to have the best of both worlds? Then we will agree on a meeting place. After the brothers have received the supplies, we will talk to you, leader.
Let’s meet up!”
Qi Ya quietly looked at the flash of heartbeat in the leader's eyes, and couldn't help but sigh to herself, how could she go against the imperial court if she couldn't resist such temptation?
After ruling out wanting to investigate the third prince, Qi Ya once again had thoughts of regret in her heart.
Is it really worth it to join the White Lotus Sect in exchange for the truth about the Third Prince after following the instigation of the White Lotus Cult Leader?
Involuntarily, Qi Ya thought of the four men in black robes she had just met, and wanted to know who had entrusted them to save her.
The first thing Qi Ya thought of was Liu Mingzhi, and she immediately rejected the idea. If it was really Liu Mingzhi who sent someone to follow her, he would have caught her immediately and taken her back instead of admonishing herself like that.
For a moment, Qi Ya felt at a loss.
"Great Elder"
"Great Elder"
"My subordinate is here!"
Qi Ya heard the leader calling and quickly regained her composure.
"What are you thinking about? Why did you lose your mind at the critical moment?"
The tone of the leader of White Lotus was a little unhappy, obviously he was dissatisfied that Qi Ya was wandering around in front of him!
"Master, forgive me. I am thinking about who should take over this batch of supplies if I accept it. After all, it is not a small amount. I heard from the brothers in Dizitan that there are hundreds of carts of goods, including bows, arrows, armor and weapons.
There are countless, and ordinary people may not be able to take on this important task!"
"The leader was just talking about this. I want you to stay with the second elder, the sixth elder, and the four altar leaders. What do you think?"
Qi Yafeng looked at the leader of the White Lotus with a hint of surprise in her eyes. No one knew better than her what was going on with this caravan, which was played by Liu Mingzhi's army.
Those who remain will most likely die at the hands of Liu Mingzhi's army.
But Qi Ya didn't know how to refuse this matter. If she refused, wouldn't she tell the leader of White Lotus that she had something to hide?
"What do you think, Great Elder? If you don't want to keep me, don't force me!"
"Report to the leader, Shopkeeper Qiao's caravan is about a mile away from the valley entrance!"
"How could it be so fast?"
The leader of the White Lotus looked at the spies he had placed on both sides of the road on Turtle Back Mountain in surprise. How long had it been since Qi Ya came back that Qiao Chengyun's caravan was already almost here!
"My subordinates and other brothers watched Shopkeeper Qiao's caravan coming into our place, and also sent brothers with good qinggong skills to check it out. There was no tail within ten miles, which was different from Shopkeeper Qiao's previous two deliveries.
What a difference!"
"Are the people leading the team Shopkeeper Qiao and Shopkeeper Jin?"
"Yes, my subordinates can guarantee with their lives that it is the two of them, and the flag of the caravan is also the commercial flag of the Qiao family."
"Great Elder, do you want to stay or not? Please give this leader a word!"
Qi Ya felt a little panicked. She accidentally glanced at the eyes of the White Lotus Cult and couldn't help being shocked. She discovered that the White Lotus Cult once again had a vague murderous intention.
What would have happened if he hadn't stayed had he not been able to escape even if he wanted to escape in such a small room. Even though he had extraordinary qinggong skills.
"If my subordinates are willing to stay and go through fire and water for the Holy Religion, I will do so without hesitation."
Qi Ya planned to slow down for a while, and if the situation was really bad, it would not be too late to escape!
"Okay, I am very pleased. This time, the second elder will be in charge. He has the most experience in battle, so I am relieved!"
The second elder's face was filled with joy, as if his pockets had become bulging: "Thank you, leader, for trusting me. I will definitely live up to your expectations!"
Qi Ya nodded gently: "My subordinates also know!"
"Except for the First Elder, the Second Elder, the Sixth Elder, and the four altar masters Dumen, Shangmen, Xiumen, and Jingmen, everyone is left to pack up their supplies and retreat!"
"Follow the order!"
"Great Elder, the people sent by my leader to Shu have already sent back the falcon message in advance to find out the information. When we meet together, my leader will give you what you want!"
Qi Yafang, who had originally planned to use Qinggong to retreat when the situation turned bad, was confused and had to change her mind!
She had done so many things that she shouldn't have done just for the sake of the Third Prince. If she left her now, wouldn't all her efforts be in vain?
"Thank you so much, Master!"
The leader of the White Lotus led a group of people to pack things. The second elder stared at Qi Ya with a hint of lust: "Elder, you have also heard what the leader said. Although your Qinggong is higher than this elder, I am far ahead of you in terms of age and qualifications."
Go up, I hope you can cooperate with this elder’s instructions, otherwise if something goes wrong, don’t blame me for being merciless!”
"I know this elder, so don't bother the second elder!"
The leader of the White Lotus Cult at Zhan Cha Gongfu stood in the valley and looked at the more than 2,000 White Lotus Cult members, waving his sleeves and saying, "Brothers, disperse and retreat!"
"call"
Song Qing grabbed the horse's reins and frowned as he looked at the Turtle Back Valley, which was less than a few hundred meters away.
"Xiao Qingzi, what's wrong?"
Qiao Chengyun looked at Song Qing, confused as to why he stopped.
Song Qing hurriedly dismounted and jumped to the carriage: "Commander, the birds flying in the forest must be caused by the large crowd. The traitors are trying to escape!"
Liu Mingzhi suddenly opened his eyes, got out of the carriage without hesitation, took out his telescope and looked in the direction of the valley.
It is true that the birds are leaving the forest, as Song Qing said, it must be caused by the movement of a large number of people.
The tone was a bit surprising: "Exposed?"
"The caravan is fake. It is Liu Mingzhi's army pretending to be a caravan. Brothers, run away!"
The soldiers standing outside looked in astonishment at a figure running quickly in the woods beside the road using Qinggong while shouting loudly while leaping!
Song Qingning stared at the figure and shouted: "It's the guy named Chen who was the first to break into the group. He was really exposed!"
Liu Mingzhi drew out the Heavenly Sword without hesitation and pointed at the valley: "The three armies obey the order, assemble in charge formation, and storm the traitor's lair!"
