I'm in the world of Xianjian
Chapter 189 A new battle
The next day, after Lin Shen absorbed all the power of the Dahuan Pill and the Golden Silkworm King, he heard someone knocking on the door outside.
Lin Shen shouted "I'm coming" and opened the door. A Bai Miao soldier came out and said, "Sir, the clan leader wants to see you!"
Lin Shen didn't know what was going on, so he subconsciously said, "Okay, I'll go right away."
He followed the soldier to the council hall, where the Nanman King, Gai Luojiao, Li Xiaoyao, Zhao Linger, Lin Yueru, Anu, Jiang Waner, and Long You were all there. Besides them, there were also several Bai Miao elders and the Nanman King's confidants.
Lin Shen asked, "What happened?"
The Nanman King took out an arrow and said, "This arrow was shot into the city last night. There was a note tied to it."
Lin Shen asked, "What's written on the note?"
The Nanman King said, "It's about Elder Shi. He was captured by the Moon Worshiper."
Lin Shen was shocked and asked, "What? Elder Shi was arrested?"
The King of Nanman handed the note to Lin Shen. Lin Shen took a look at it and saw that the gist of the note was that Elder Shi was captured by the Moon Worshiper and would be publicly executed in three days.
Lin Shen thought to himself: No wonder I always felt like something was missing after coming to Miaojiang. How could I have forgotten about this old man?
Fortunately, he kept his promise and did not cause us any more trouble.
After Lin Shen put the note away, he said, "Did the clan leader call me here just to ask about my attitude towards this matter?"
The Southern Barbarian King said nothing, but just nodded.
Lin Shen was not in a hurry to express his opinion and fell into deep thought.
At this time, a young man of about seventeen or eighteen said, "I don't think it's necessary to save him.
Anyway, it’s an internal matter of the Black Miao people, a dog-eat-dog situation, and we can just watch the fun.”
The Nanman King said, "What Tang Yu said is not without reason."
Lin Shen thought: Oh, this is Tang Yu. The NPC in the game, the official CP of Anu in the film and television series. But he was overthinking it.
Lin Yueru interrupted at this time and said, "I always feel that there is something fishy about this matter. If it is just an internal extermination of traitors, there is no need to tell us. Wouldn't it be better to just chop off Old Man Shi and be done with it?"
The Nanman King asked, "Miss Lin, do you think this is a trap?"
Lin Yueru said, "I just think there is such a possibility. If we don't go, and kill someone who is not on the same page with the Moon Worshiper;
If you go, you can catch them all.
They won’t lose no matter what they do.”
Zhao Linger said, "I think what Sister Yueru said makes sense."
Lin Shen thought: Actually, I also think there is a trap here, but for the reconciliation of the Black and White Miao tribes after the war, Elder Shi must be rescued.
Although Elder Shi was a bit foolishly loyal, he was also a capable and loyal person. This was a difficult situation.
If we choose to rob the execution ground, there will definitely be an ambush. If we are not careful, we will suffer heavy losses. What should we do?
At this time, a discussion broke out about whether to save Elder Shi or not. Everyone had their own opinions, but those who thought there was no need to save him prevailed.
Lin Shen has not made any statement yet.
Jiang Wan'er nudged Lin Shen and said, "My benefactor, why don't you express your opinion?"
After thinking for a moment, Lin Shen snapped his fingers and said, "I got it."
The Nanman King asked, "Sir, what do you think?"
Lin Shen said, "Chief, I think we still need to save Elder Shi."
Gai Luojiao said, "Anos, what nonsense are you talking about? Elder Shi is our enemy."
Lin Shen said, "You are right, but that is from the perspective of the Black and White Miao tribes. However, this person is also the pillar of the Nanshao Kingdom.
Now the war between the Black and White Miao in Nanshao Kingdom has not yet been completely settled, and such a mature and steady person is needed to take charge of the situation.
After all, our main enemy is the Moon Worship Cult, not the entire Black Miao tribe.
Those Black Miao people were also bewitched by the immortal old Moon Worshiping Sect leader.
If the fighting continues like this, the vitality of Nanshao State will be severely damaged, and it will only benefit the fisherman while the snipe and the clam fight each other."
After hearing Lin Shen's words, the King of Nanman fell into deep thought, and others also felt that there was some truth in it.
After a while, the Nanman King said, "Sir, how do you plan to save Elder Shi?"
Lin Shen said, "I guess they will probably set up an ambush near the execution ground on the day of Elder Shi's execution, waiting for us to take the bait.
I thought why not take advantage of the situation and let the Moon Worshiper shoot himself in the foot."
Anu said, "Is it necessary to save that old man?"
Lin Shen said, "Anu, I know you are unhappy with him.
However, in order to restore the Nanshao Kingdom in the future and bridge the conflict between the two ethnic groups, such a person who can speak on both sides is needed.
Nanshao State has suffered greatly from disasters and cannot afford to waste time internally."
Lin Shen thought: Actually, I really want to say that the Witch King is already dead at this time, and the Witch King on the stage is a tree demon, but I guess no one will believe it even if I say it.
Lin Yueru said, "So what are you going to do?"
Lin Shen said, "I plan to go alone."
Zhao Linger, Lin Yueru, Anu, and Jiang Waner all said in unison, "No~!"
Lin Shen was startled by the four people's unified voices and said, "You four, your words are too consistent. It's like we agreed on it beforehand."
The four of them rolled their eyes at Lin Shen. Lin Shen closed his eyes and thought: Yes, if they are all small fry, it would be fine for me to go alone.
But if the Moon Worshiper was there, it would be troublesome.
Although the Moon Worshiper without his fusion form is nothing but trash in my eyes, a hero can't stand up to many people, especially when he has to save people. I have to bring some helpers with me.
Wait a minute, if the Moon Worshiper is there too, wouldn’t it be better to just kill him right there?
In this way, the water monster will not be resurrected, and Ling'er's tragedy can be avoided.
Seeing that Lin Shen was silent again with his eyes closed, thinking, Lin Yueru pushed him and said with a hint of resentment, "Anos, what's wrong with you? You're silent again, and you only said half of the sentence and then stopped."
After Lin Shen opened his eyes, he said, "Yueru, I'm just thinking about how to save Elder Shi. I think I need to bring helpers with me."
Since it is a trap, the Moon Worshiper is very likely to be present. It is better to kill him right there and then and let him know what it means to dig a hole and bury yourself in it.
My idea is that our team of seven will first rescue people at the execution ground. If the situation changes, we will have General Gai lead a team to provide support."
The Nanman King said, "That's it. Ah Jiao (Gai Luojiao responded), you take two hundred men and horses and march into the royal city first to lie in wait.
In this operation, all your actions will be under the command of Anos."
Gai Luojiao glanced at Lin Shen and said, "Yes~!"
Then he looked at Lin Shen and said, "Sir, I'll go get ready first. See you in the royal city."
Lin Shen said, "General Gai, I'm not your boss. Can you please not be a subordinate of a subordinate?"
Gai Luojiao said, "For this operation, the clan leader asked his subordinates to follow your command, so you are now my boss."
Lin Shen didn't know what to say next, so he said, "It's up to you. See you in the royal city."
But before that, I need to find out where the royal city is."
Gai Luojiao said, "Out of the city, forty miles southwest."
Lin Shen said, "I understand. Take care, General Gai."
After the two of them exchanged a bow, Gai Luojiao left. Lin Shen also called Li Xiaoyao and the others away.
