my unparalleled way

Chapter 136
It was only after walking for a while that they were discovered.

A ten-member lunar army scout team met them suddenly in the mountains and forests.

It wasn't that Lin Si was too careless, but that none of these scouts were on horseback, and he was on his way on horseback. For a while, he really couldn't find them in advance.

As soon as the two sides met, there was only a distance of seven or eight zhang, and one of the group of scouts exclaimed, "I found it!"

After that, they didn't rush up to fight Lin Si and the others with swords and guns.

A soldier who looked like the leader of the scouting team immediately took out a small cylinder from his arms.

How could Lin Si not know what this is?When he was in Qingchuan back then, the reason why Mu Laoliu couldn't escape was because this thing sent out a signal and attracted a large number of Qingchuan pursuers.

Before the captain had time to send out the signal in the cylinder, Lin Si decisively threw the long sword in his hand.

puff!The long sword went straight into the scout captain's neck like a ray of light.

He stared unwillingly and glared, as if he wanted to use all his strength to pull the lead wire of the cylinder before he died, but he couldn't pull up any strength at all.

With a plop, he fell limply to the ground without a sound.

"Kill!" Lin Si rushed forward immediately.

He didn't want to be left alive, and it would be over if a large number of pursuers were attracted by these scouts.

Before he could make a sound, Mu Zheping had already raised his knife and rushed towards the two scouts on the left.

But Yue Luoning and Ye Hong were startled, unable to react for a moment.

For a while, the two of them couldn't accept the reality that they needed to kill their own soldiers with their own hands, but they also understood that if they were soft-handed now, they would be asking for their own death.

It wasn't until Lin Si and Mu Zheping had already dealt with one of the scouts with one move like lightning, that they both woke up like a dream, and swung their weapons to kill these scouts as well.

Most of these scouts are ordinary people, not practitioners.

The only team leader who observed the realm was pierced through the throat by Lin Siyi's sword at the beginning, and the remaining nine scouts were massacred by four people in the blink of an eye.

"What happened to you two just now?" Lin Si asked Yue Luoning and Ye Hong while picking up the long sword, and took out an iron bow and two pots of arrows from the scout.

Yue Luoning and Ye Hong's reaction was too slow just now, fortunately this group of scouts was small and weak, otherwise if one or two ran away, they would be in danger.

Yue Luoning didn't refute, but said calmly: "It won't happen in the future."

Lin Si said bluntly: "It's best!"

Mu Zheping reminded: "We can't ride horses anymore, otherwise it will be easy to expose our whereabouts!"

"En!" Lin Si and the others nodded in agreement.

The four dismounted one after another, and then drew their swords towards the horse's back. The four horses suffered from pain and rushed towards the southeast frantically.

This is naturally an illusion they deliberately made by the way. Although this method may not confuse the enemy, it is better than nothing.

The four of them gradually reached the northwest border.

Then the hearts of the four sank.

Lying behind the bushes, they could clearly see the border hundreds of meters away. At this time, the torches were brightly lit, and densely packed soldiers were either guarding the checkpoint, or standing on the archery tower, or gathering on the nearby border line, or searching nearby.

That scene was almost as if a big battle was about to start.

Lin Si swallowed his saliva, and whispered to the three people around him with difficulty: "There are almost three to four thousand people here. Is this called weak defense?"

Yue Luoning said in a depressed mood: "Yes..."

Ye Hong whispered: "It's night now, once we wait until dawn, we will have nothing to hide. And the additional masters sent by the other side will gradually come."

Mu Zheping said softly: "Let's go back! Go and see other places. No matter what, you must leave this area before dawn."

The three of them looked at Lin Si together, and before they knew it, they had acquiesced in Lin Si's leadership position.

Lin Si pondered for a moment and was about to wave his hand to leave here, but a different voice came into his ears from a distance.

"Wait! There's movement." He stopped quickly and crouched behind the bushes.

Although Mu Zheping and the other three didn't hear anything, they didn't speak, but also waited quietly.

After a while, a dense and chaotic sound of vehicles and horses rushing forward came from afar.

A convoy of about 200 riders and three carriages gradually appeared in front of the border from the side and rear.

Everyone in this convoy is wearing civilian clothes and riding horses, and the horses are not moving fast.

As the convoy gradually approached the checkpoint, a middle-aged man who seemed to be the leader came out more and more, and rode his horse to the checkpoint to negotiate with the defenders on exit matters.

Yue Luoning said with a happy face: "What is the background of this group of people? Can we sneak in and go with them?"

Mu Zheping shook his head and said softly: "You can see for yourself, this group of people... may be our acquaintances!"

"what?"

"He's right." Lin Si said in a deep voice, "You can tell by looking at the clothes of these people."

"I didn't see anything! This should be a caravan, isn't it normal for a caravan to pass by the border?"

Lin Si said calmly: "Of course it's not normal, although I don't know the situation at the border. But at night, the caravan should camp and rest on the spot, right? How can anyone cross the border overnight?"

Yue Luoning argued: "Maybe the merchants are afraid of delaying the delivery time, so they rush all night? This kind of thing is not surprising to some chambers of commerce."

Lin Si smiled, stretched out his hand and pointed at the convoy slightly: "Look at the people on the horses, they are all dressed in different clothes, and there are almost no duplicates. How can the guards hired by the general caravan be like this? And their clothes , not like guards, but more like farmers!"

"What did you find?"

Ye Hong interjected, "These people should belong to those horse thieves from before. Now that the Moon Army is besieging us, they will also be surrounded and suffer as well!"

"No way!" Yue Luoning exclaimed in a low voice.

"It's not wrong. They probably wanted to get out as soon as possible, so they changed out of black clothes and put on farmer's clothes. You can tell by the way they ride on horseback. They are refreshed and powerful. They are obviously not ordinary. People. Don’t you think it’s strange that such people are all wearing crude peasant clothes?” Lin Si explained.

Yue Luoning said: "Will the border guards not be able to see it? Now they shouldn't let any suspicious person go, right?"

"Perhaps? These horse thieves may not know the joint."

Ye Hong looked forward to it: "I really hope they can fight, so that we have a chance to escape. These 200 horse thieves and these three or four thousand soldiers should be evenly matched!"

"I hope too!" Lin Si nodded and said: "Don't act rashly, get ready to break through!"

Lin Si and the others guessed that the more than 200 people in the convoy were all horse thieves.

This time they burned, killed and looted villages and towns thousands of miles away on the border of the Moon Kingdom. They were already preparing to go back in the past two days, but many accidents happened at night.

First, they got the news that a group of companions had been killed by Lin Si and others. When they arrived at the village, the other party had already left.

Then they planned to leave the Moon Kingdom all the way north, but were discovered by the Moon Kingdom scouts.

According to the experience of the leader of the horse thief, the Yue Kingdom scouts would not appear here easily, but this time they were uncharacteristically.

They quickly took down this group of scouts and learned that they were also looking for four teenagers. Tens of thousands of moon soldiers had gathered in a radius of more than ten miles.

This frightened the horse thieves. The reason why they dared to come to the border of the Moon Kingdom to plunder was not only for that little property, but also for other missions.

Their intelligence sources are also much more detailed than other ordinary horse thieves. Originally, the border defenses of this generation have not been very strict, and these practitioners can easily disperse through the border.

But now, the Moon Army has completely surrounded this place!

With their strength, two or three thousand ordinary moon troops may not be able to stop them, but with tens of thousands of soldiers, they definitely have only one dead end.

Nothing else is needed, just tens of thousands of soldiers line up and shoot at them in two salvos. All of them, including the leader who has been cultivated in the late stage of the extreme state, may all become hedgehogs.

If they continue to stop here, they will also be discovered. Although the other party is looking for the four teenagers, I'm afraid they won't mind getting rid of them.

The leader of the horse thieves discussed with several leaders, and decided to change their clothes on the spot, pretending to be a caravan to pass through the customs overnight.

And the direction they chose coincides with Lin Si, and it is also the northwest where they think their troops are weakest.

They arrived at the border smoothly, but facing the guards at the checkpoint, the leader of the horse thief was still a little uneasy.

As usual, he didn't need to go through the checkpoint at all, he just passed through the wild border.

But now that there are tens of thousands of moon troops densely covered here, he didn't dare to break through rashly, so he had to come here to try his luck and see if he could pass the border in a normal way.

He didn't want to fight with Yue Junhuo and hurt both, it wasn't worth it.

They were practitioners, not soldiers. They turned into horse thieves for certain missions, and they didn't want to die on the battlefield like this.

Their camouflage was not perfect, and Lin Si could tell from such a distance, not to mention the border guards.

The four guards quickly discovered something was wrong, and after a few routine interrogations, the convoy was stopped in front of the gate.

A guard drew his weapon and made a defensive gesture: "You are too suspicious, we must report it before making a decision!"

Other soldiers surrounded him one after another.

The horse thief leader's heart sank, did he really want to fight to the death?It's just a pity that Erbaierlang died here!
The horse thieves behind them made preparations for battle one after another, but the leader of the horse thieves did not speak, and did not act rashly for a while.

The scene before the pass suddenly became tense.

There was no need for the guard to ask for instructions. So many people suddenly appeared in front of the checkpoint. The highest commander of the checkpoint, a middle-aged man in armor, walked out surrounded by many subordinates!
As soon as he got here, he shouted: "What's the matter! Who are you?"

The leader of the horse thief said respectfully: "My lord, we belong to the Taining Chamber of Commerce. This trip is going to go from the Tianhe Kingdom to the Shenyan Empire,"

"What business do you do, what about the goods?"

"We plan to buy goods along the way and sell them in the Shenyan Empire, and then come back from there."

The leader of the horse thieves repeated what he said to the soldiers at the checkpoint before. He could only say this, because there was no cargo in his carriage, and some were all looted property.

The commander interrupted him with a wave of his hand.

"Don't talk so much, we are now hunting down four important criminals. I suspect they are hiding in your convoy. You can go there if you want, but you must be checked one by one!"

This leader is not stupid, he can see that the so-called caravan is not normal, but arresting those four criminals is the top priority now, and he himself understands the importance of it.

As a confidant of Prince Liangyue, he knew that the target of arrest this time was Prince Yue Luoning.

This caravan, he may not recognize them as 'Black Turban Bandits', but he also knows that they are definitely not good people. The bloody smell and hostility on many people have not faded away!
He himself is a cultivator of the Yuan Realm, and of course he can tell that the more than 200 people on the opposite side are all practitioners. Once there is a conflict, the final result will be a loss for both sides.

If it were normal, he might stop them.But now, he can only pretend to be confused in order not to delay the important event by causing unnecessary complications.

The leader of the horse thief was a little surprised, originally he thought he was doomed this time.Who knows, the other party doesn't seem to value them at all.

Are those four teenagers so important?What are they from?
It is nothing to them to pass the checkpoint one by one, and they just hope that there will be no accidents because of the two carts of trophies.
