My Apprenticeship to Uncle Jiu: I Was a Warlord in the Republic of China

And after his translation, Jiang Li proved his guess.

It turned out that these people were not mountain people at all, but the followers of the Yin Shen Sect that they were looking for.

And what he said just now, besides scolding Jiang Li, also included words like "God will not let you go" and so on. In short, he was a typical cult fanatic.

He asked the translator a few more questions but got nothing out of them, so he decided not to waste his time and had them tied up and left them alone.

Looking at the mountain, he saw such a strong yin energy in broad daylight. He really couldn't imagine what the scene would be like at night.

Originally, he was very confident in his luck and merits, but now he no longer had the courage to go into the mountains to search, after all, those guys had muskets in their hands.

If you accidentally get shot in the head, you won't even have anywhere to cry.

He simply ordered to turn around on the spot. He planned to go back and ask Uncle Jiu and the others for help, and then he would send his own troops to assist. He was now shouldering the heavy responsibility of resisting the Japanese pirates and could not take any risks.

Watching Jiang Li leading his men away, several guys in the forest who were dressed like Indians and full of evil spirits were staring at the direction where Jiang Li left with burning eyes.

One of the young men said to the other middle-aged men in the Yao dialect, "This man is full of blood and karma. If we sacrifice his body, we will be able to invite the real body of the evil god to the human world. We must not let them go like this!"

At this time, an old man stood up and said, "Pan Yong is right. Now that the altar is ready, this man is the best candidate for the main sacrifice. Even if all the believers are killed, we must keep him!"

"But this army has powerful firearms. We can't fight them head-on during the day. We can only use poisonous insects and heavenly soldiers to launch a sneak attack at night."

After that, he ordered Pan Yong sternly, "Pan Yong, take your most devout believers and take a shortcut to get in front of them and destroy the road. You must keep them here. Do you understand?"

Pan Yong patted his chest when he heard this and said, "Don't worry, Great Elder. I will take people to intercept them right away and make sure he serves wine to Lord Tianshen!"

As he said this, he took a shortcut and left with a group of elite cultists.

After Jiang Li gave the order to turn around again, he felt more and more uneasy, because he inexplicably felt that he seemed to have fallen into a trap, but he couldn't tell what the specific situation was.

Since he had no clue, he stopped thinking about it and told the team to speed up.

But this is Guangxi, with mountains and rivers, and vehicles can't run at all, they can only move slowly.

After an unknown amount of time, a truck at the front of the team suddenly stopped. He immediately sent Jiang Youchi to ask what happened.

As a result, after asking, he found out that the road ahead was blocked by huge rocks, soil, and trees, which made him frown.

Jiang Youchi's next words made him frown even more, "Commander, I just looked at the broken ends of those trees and I can conclude that they were man-made!"

When Jiang Li heard that it was man-made, he immediately realized that this was because they didn't want to lose the rhythm.

I just don't know what confidence they have to dare to target our hundreds of fully armed military units.

You have to know that each of his 100 motorcycles has a heavy machine gun, and in addition to ammunition, there are also ten mortars on the truck.

Not to mention the 1,800 cultists, even if there were 2,000 or 3,000 troops, they would not be able to defeat him, so he was not worried at all. However, it was just this one carelessness that made him regret it later.

But then again, the necessary efforts still had to be made, and he immediately sent Taoist soldiers forward to help clear the obstacles, and then sent Jiang Youchi to send some people to search further forward, and told them not to go too far to avoid being divided and surrounded.

In his opinion, since these people intended to keep him, they would definitely continue to set up obstacles ahead. If he sent people to search, they should be able to find them.

And that was indeed the case. Just when Jiang Youchi led his men to search less than a hundred meters forward, he saw someone doing something wrong ahead.

So he immediately led people in pursuit, and when the cultists saw them being chased, they immediately ran into the mountains. Jiang Youchi realized that he could not catch up, so he immediately ordered his people to shoot at them.

For a while, there was a continuous sound of gunfire. Jiang Li immediately climbed onto the truck and took out a telescope to see what was happening ahead.

It was immediately apparent that Jiang Youchi had led his men to shoot into the woods. "It looked like they had discovered the enemy's tracks."

Sure enough, just a few minutes later, Jiang Youchi had people carrying several corpses back, and they were obviously dressed like the people who had attacked him before.

After taking a quick look and not seeing anything, he stopped asking questions. However, he changed his mind and thought that although the soul of a person who had just died was in a daze, if he summoned it, perhaps he could get something out of it. He had nothing to do anyway.

So he immediately took out his stuff from his storage bag, quickly set up the altar in the shade, and after placing the corpses, he began to summon the souls of several people.

Since his cultivation had reached the level of Earth Master at that time, he was able to quickly perform the spell of summoning spirits, which was not very difficult.

However, as soon as a few illusory souls appeared, they were immediately shattered by the luck, merits and karma of Jiang Li.

This made Jiang Li speechless. He shook his head and sighed, "What a waste of expression!"

Then he put the altar back into the storage bag and had someone bury them with the cleared soil and stones. Then he got back into the car and waited quietly for the convoy to move forward at a snail's pace.

As for why they were still moving at a snail's pace, it was because although Jiang Youchi was leading people in the front to clear the way, those cultists would block the road further away.

Finally, seeing that they could not stop the fire, they simply set fire to the mountain. Fortunately, the humidity in Guangxi is relatively high, so the fire did not spread, but it still produced a lot of smoke, causing a lot of trouble for Jiang Li's team.

The stalemate lasted until it was almost dark, and Jiang Li was unable to leave here smoothly. In the end, he could only find a Yao village to rest for the night.

Because he knew that someone was lurking in secret, he had people light a lot of bonfires outside the village and arranged people to watch in the village. Anyone who dared to approach the bonfires would be beaten to pieces.

After arranging all this, he casually ate a few cans of food, then sat in the truck and began to close his eyes and rest.

It’s not that he is so tired today, but judging from the situation, there may be another battle next, so he plans to conserve his energy and wait for the enemy to arrive.

This wait lasted for several hours, and when the moon was at its zenith, Jiang Li, who was sleeping soundly, was awakened by the noise.

He quickly got out of the car and saw the soldiers on night watch slapping and trampling a large number of poisonous insects on the ground.

There were scorpions, spiders, centipedes, toads, and poisonous snakes, all five poisonous creatures. There were also some insects he couldn't even name, flying through the crowd.
