From Under One Person: Sincere Journey Through the Heavens

"Then stop asking me! Tell the people behind to speed up, don't rest tonight, get back as soon as possible, and make the boss happy!"

Bomba exclaimed excitedly, "If the boss is pleased, besides money, he might even bestow divine power upon us, allowing us to become wizards too!"

Ba Ben hurriedly turned around and shouted to the group behind him, "Speed ​​up! We need to get the gift to the boss! If he's happy, he'll give us divine powers!"

"Divine power! Divine power! Divine power!"

The bandits behind them shouted in unison, raising their hands in excitement...

···

"It's confirmed, they are a group of bandits who make a living by robbing and plundering."

Lu Jin opened her eyes and began to make arrangements, "Our first goal is to save people, so we should take care of the people next to the carriage where the girl is being held first."

Jack, you're in charge of sniping;

Ango, take this opportunity to wrap the cage with bandages;

Jax, you carried Zubo to the prison cell;

Jin Ge, your ability is rather special, so you'll just be responsible for hiding in the bushes and letting the enemy suffer.

Zubo, you will be responsible for using your spatial teleportation ability to bring the hostages here.

I and the others were responsible for providing cover fire.

Although he could handle everyone on his own, now that he is the captain of this action team, his most important qualities are leadership and command abilities.

“I want to shoot,” Jax said, somewhat unconvinced by Lu Jin's suggestion. “Why don’t we let Jagata go? Didn’t she want to help?”

"This isn't a game, there's no room for negotiation. Nobody's as fast as you."

Lu Jin explained his reasons, and then added, "Also, obey orders, corporal, otherwise you'll just stay in logistics forever."

Jax: "......" This kid isn't as innocent as he looks! To be able to be on friendly terms with someone as powerful as Jiang Liu, he's definitely not simple!

At this moment, Ango reached out and asked timidly, "Can I still shoot after the bandages are wrapped around my head? I love shooting, especially submachine guns."

"······Can."

Lu Jin took a submachine gun from Jack's back, handed it to Ango, and instructed, "Just don't spray bullets in the direction of the hostages."

"No problem! I'm a sharpshooter!" Ango said, head held high and chest puffed out, his face full of confidence.

"Hey! That's not fair! Why should his proposal be approved?"

Jax showed his dissatisfaction, but before Lu Jin could give the order, Zu Bo jumped onto his back and said, "Stop talking nonsense, Jax, it's time to move, otherwise they will leave the ravine from below, and you won't see any fun then."

"You really know how to threaten people, Zubo."

Jax had no choice but to compromise.

Lu Jin was too lazy to waste words with this amusing person, so he nodded to Jack, indicating that he could get started.

Jack immediately raised his gun and, using the starlight filtering through the night, aimed at one of the robbers on the side of the carriage holding the girl in her cage—

# Chapter 729 Baben and Benba at Green Wave Pool

boom!

A gunshot shattered the silence of the night.

One of the robbers next to the prison van fell to the ground.

"Enemy attack!"

Where is he?

The robbers near the convoy panicked, but because it was too dark, they couldn't see Lu Jin and the others on the cliff above at all, and they were like headless flies running around aimlessly.

"Put Murdoch's daughter aside for now!"

Pemba shouted, "Protect the rice and dried meat!"

Babun also shouted, "Rice is important! Dried meat is important! Murdoch's daughter is not important!"

Seeing that the bandits below were focused on the supplies and ignored the girl, Lu Jin knew that they had mistaken them for other robbers, so he ordered the others to take up their guns and open fire.

In an instant.

Fire snakes darted about, bullets flew, killing eight or nine bandits. The remaining robbers hurriedly hid behind the carriage or under the vehicle, not daring to show their faces.

Even if someone showed their face, they would accidentally step on a nearly spherical pebble, trip and fall, and be immediately spotted by Jack, who would blow their head off!

This was naturally due to Jin Ge's ability to control luck!

"Now's the time!"

Lu Jin gestured to An Ge.

"okay!"

Ango swung a bandage, which accurately wrapped around the prison cart holding the girl. Jax carried Zubo on his back and ran along the bandage. Under the cover of the crowd, he reached the prison cart, violently opened the cage, picked up the girl, and took the opportunity to say to Zubo, "Are you really going to listen to that kid's plan? How about we find some fun?"

“Jax, I’ve heard of you. Those who used to team up with you all died on the battlefield because of your recklessness.”

Zubo calmly connected the spatial passage between the cliff and the side beside him, and talked about Jax's past, "But I advise you not to have fun at this time. The bullets may not hit us, but if it causes the rescue operation to fail, he and Jiang Liu may not let us off the hook."

"Relax, they're good people." Jax thought he had seen through Jiang Liu and Lu Jin's true nature, and he had a playful look on his face.

So don't test the limits of good people.

Zubo had already bridged the space and thrown the girl in. After glancing at the nearby robbers' corpses, he looked deeply at Jax. "Moreover, I can tell that their morality is relatively flexible, and they are decisive in killing. Once we cross their moral bottom line, our fate will not be much better than these dead robbers."

"I didn't expect you to have such insightful views."

Jax's smile faded slightly as he leaped into the spatial portal. "Don't worry, I'm the 'comedic relief.' At least my teammates who died on the battlefield had some fun before they died, and they don't need to rot away in the oppressive atmosphere of war forever..."

Zu Bo paused for a second, then stepped into the spatial passage, returning to the cliff side, and then—

"vomit!"

He knelt on the ground, retching incessantly.

Although Zu Bo's ability is innate, she has never been exposed to any Eastern Qi cultivation methods and does not know how to cultivate her inner life. When she is teleported over a long distance, her internal organs will churn, and she may even faint.

Thirty meters —

That was the maximum teleportation distance she could maintain without fainting.

"My turn!"

Jagata threw out the rag doll from her waist, and hundreds of threads shot out, wrapping around the robbers hiding in the back of the carriage, dragging them out one by one and exposing them to the guns of the crowd.

"Go to hell! Hahahaha!"

Ango picked up his submachine gun, laughed wildly, and fire spurted out, bullets flew everywhere, but the robbers below were completely unharmed!

"Oh my God! Ango is actually a master of human figure outlining! That's really unexpected!"

Jax clearly knew how good Ango was at marksmanship, and said to Lu Jin with a slightly sarcastic tone, "It seems we shouldn't have given her the gun in the first place."

Lu Jin merely glanced at him, without engaging in a confrontation. She raised her hand and dispersed a dozen or so magnetic fields to identify the remaining survivors.

Three people in total.

Although Ango's marksmanship was indeed terrible, Jack and the other veterans and mercenaries were quite skilled marksmen, taking down the bandits one by one.

After Lu Jin pulled the three survivors to the cliff edge, he ordered Yagata, Zubo, and Jinge to take Jack and the others down to bring the supplies back to the cave. He, Jax, and Ango stayed behind to conduct a preliminary interrogation of the three prisoners.

"Spare me! Spare me!"

Of the three prisoners, two were Bamba and Baben, one tall and one short, one fat and one thin, one black and one white.

Benba was plump and white, his eyes filled with fear; Baben was thin and dark, his eyes filled with bewilderment.

Tall or short, fat or thin, dressed in black and white, they resemble deadly ghosts.

Seeing how eccentric these two were, Lu Jin compared them to the Black and White Impermanence figures in Jiang Liuxin's mind, and a thought inexplicably arose in his mind:

If these two become ghosts after they die, then they are the "real deal"!

However, distracting thoughts came and went quickly. Lu Jin regained his composure, put on a stern face, and asked the two, "Who are you? And who is the mastermind behind this? Tell the truth, and I will spare your lives!"

“I am Bamba, and he is Baben.”

Benba wore a bitter expression and dared not hide anything. "We are from Green Wave Pool. This trip was not specifically to abduct Murkdo's daughter. We just happened to encounter Murkdo's daughter while robbing passing caravans as usual. We thought we would capture her as well and let our boss play with her."

Benboerba?

Ba Bo'er Ben?

Because of the accents of the two people, Lu Jin raised his eyebrows slightly. Upon hearing the word "Green Wave Pool," which sounded very similar to Chinese, he couldn't help but ask, "Your owner of Green Wave Pool wouldn't happen to be the Nine-Headed Insect, would he?"

"Nine-headed worm? No! Boss is a human, not a worm, but he can summon a black mist that transforms into a large bird with eight heads." Seeing Lu Jin's furious glare, Benba quickly revealed the Green Wave Pool Master's abilities.

"An eight-headed bird?!"

Lu Jin was extremely surprised.

In the book "Journey to the West", the Nine-Headed Insect is called an "insect", but it is actually a bird, not an insect.

Why then are birds called insects?

This is because in ancient China, there was a classification system for animals, including humans, who embarked on the path of cultivation before attaining Qi, which was divided into five types of insects: snails, scaled creatures, hairy creatures, feathered creatures, and insects.

All birds belong to the feathered insect category.

In the novel Journey to the West, the Nine-Headed Insect fought against the Great Sage and the Lesser Sage. One of its heads was bitten off by Erlang Shen's hound, and it headed towards the North Sea... Could it be that it didn't head north, but west, and escaped to Africa?

"Thank you for saving me."

Murdoch's daughter also figured out the situation at this time, realizing that Lu Jin and the others were not mercenaries hired by her father, but another group, perhaps also bandits, but different from the bandits of Green Wave Pool, a group of chivalrous thieves.

"You are welcome."

Lu Jin snapped out of his daze and stopped pressing Baben and Benba for answers. Instead, he asked the girl, "What's your name? Are you from Atal?"

"Yes! My home is in Atar. My father is a well-known wealthy merchant in the area. He's a very kind man..." The girl was relieved after being rescued and became very talkative, which gave Lu Jin a headache. He could only stop for the time being and prepared to take the girl and the three prisoners back to the cave for his brother Jiang to interrogate and question them.
