Light Dance Jiajing

Chapter 73 Preparing for a Sneak Attack

Ah Jin took a step forward, and several cave masters immediately stopped making noises and looked at him. Ah Jin spoke in a deep voice, emphasizing each word: "In war, there is only advancement and no retreat. How can we retreat if we suffer a defeat?" He looked at everyone deeply and continued: "There is no way back now. Are you going to surrender by offering the head of the Miao King?"

This couldn't be made clearer. They could surrender, but would the court let the main culprit go? If they wanted to surrender, they had to give their due first. The Miao King would surely die. Everyone felt a chill down their spines. They didn't dare to think so. Several cave masters knelt down in a hurry, pointing to the sky and the earth and swore that they would never have any second thoughts. The Miao King's expression improved a little. Ah Jin curled his lips in disdain, thinking to himself, if this day really came, you would still care about whether he was the Miao King or not. How could human nature stand the test?

Seeing that these people had almost expressed their loyalty, A Jin said, "The army has not moved yet, but the food and grass have gone first. How can the food and grass keep up so quickly when the army is rushing? I think their remaining food is not enough to last for a few days. We just need to cut off their food and money. I am not afraid that they will not retreat quickly. As for how to act, we still need to ask for help."

The Miao King asked anxiously, "Who do you want to invite?"

Ah Jin smiled and said, "It's in our team."

The Sixth Guardian put away his natural smile, thought for a moment and said, "Why should I help you?"

Ah Jin said, "Remember, you are not helping me. You can choose to do nothing, but the Third Protector has already agreed. I'm afraid your leader doesn't want the Miao people to be wiped out so quickly. If the Third Protector sues you in the future, don't blame me for not speaking up for you."

The Sixth Dharma Protector's mind raced. The leader had frequent contacts with Mongolia, but he did not expect to rely on the natives in the southwest to destroy the Ming Dynasty. However, if the power of the court was contained in the southwest, it would be helpful to the leader's major cause. If the Third Dharma Protector was allowed to emerge at this time, it would be difficult for him to control the situation here in the future. He did not take this group of guerrilla Miao people seriously, but he was in this team after all, and he could not allow the Third Dharma Protector to become more powerful. But how could he be assured of Zai Ji's safety? He had brought Zai Ji with him day and night to protect him all the way. This time, it would take a moment at most to reach the enemy camp, but it would take a long time. Nothing could be predicted in the chaotic army. Besides, this small town was full of crises. Who should he hand Zai Ji to?

"Don't worry, Uncle Six. Don't worry about me. I believe Ajin will make arrangements." Zaiji walked out of the inner room lazily. He looked at Ajin and said, "You are very good. Haha, the march and battles along the way really impressed me. I was indeed short-sighted before. I don't have the idea of ​​conquering you anymore. How can a person like you be inferior to others? I just want to make friends with you. I know you like that girl Mei'er, but it's hard to say whether her brother can survive. You might as well bet your treasure on me. If the boy's poison cannot be cured, how about we cooperate?"

Ah Jin looked at Zai Ji with a hint of amusement. He never dared to underestimate this child. This was not the behavior of a thirteen-and-a-half-year-old child. The descendants of the Ming Dynasty were all extraordinary. Ah Jin said without comment, "We'll talk about this later. Let's get through this first. Besides, I also want to see if you are worthy of cooperation."

As the sky darkened and the twilight gathered, a team of fifty people quietly rode out of the city from the corner gate in the west. Ajin was in the front, followed by the three and six Dharma protectors, and then there were four White Lotus followers and more than forty strong men selected from the Miao people. The reason for the action that night was that Ajin was worried that the court would send a large army to besiege the small city. It would be difficult to break out at that time, so he had to seize the time and take action when the enemy army had just arrived and the parties had not yet assembled.

Although there were only fifty people in their group, they were not easy to deal with. Seeing the lights ahead, they guessed that the enemy camp was not far away. The enemy was stationed in a dense forest. Some trees were cut down to build camps or to make fires. Taking advantage of the darkness of the forest, they slowly approached the camp, but there were not so many shades ahead. Ajin arranged all the Miao people far away from the enemy camp, and took the other six people to perform light body kung fu like a civet cat, and disappeared into the night after a few jumps.

Zaihou had fallen asleep, but Mei'er was leaning against the bed, not wanting to sleep at all. Zaiji sat in a chair, picked up the teacup, glanced at Mei'er, and said sarcastically, "What's wrong? Can't you sleep?" Mei'er ignored him. Zaiji took a sip of tea and said sinisterly, "Are you afraid of me being here? Ha, we haven't been like this for a long time." In addition to the three children, there were also the three guardians and the six guardians who stayed behind to protect them. They were all staring at each other's actions. , he did not hide his defensive intention at all. Alai sat in the corner very reluctantly. He wanted to follow Ajin to rob the camp, but was left behind to look after a few children. He knew the importance of these children, but was still very unwilling. Alai glanced at Zaiji coldly. He could not tell whether he liked Meng'er or not. He had no good impression of Zaiji at all. He was always in such a weird look and would always make a few sarcastic remarks to that girl whenever he had nothing to do. These little children were really restless.

Yan'er changed her posture and sat cross-legged with her eyes closed. She had no intention of paying attention to Zaiji. Zaiji was not angry and continued to talk to himself: "It's useless for you to pretend to be calm. You think your brother can be saved. Do you know how terrible this poison is when it takes effect? ​​Haha, his bones and flesh will rot and slowly turn into a poisonous corpse. When the time comes, you want to bury him, but you can't... Your heartbeat quickened, and there was an overwhelming and indescribable pain in your heart. Yes, how could you not care about the safety of your relatives? It's a pity that you have no way to do anything and can only watch him die in pain."

"Shut up." Mei'er finally couldn't help but yell. She knew Zaiji just wanted to torture her and see her in a messy and helpless state. Well, he succeeded. She really couldn't stand being ridiculed. She couldn't remain calm when it came to Zaihou. Zaiji smiled, his voice was full of joy, and rarely did it have a gloomy tone.
