Inside the tent, Zhao Muyun and the other two quickly fell silent.
"Have you got your water?"
At this moment, a sharp shout was heard outside.
"Sir, we've already called!" Lin Feng replied calmly, "They're all here!"
"Now that the water's here, let's get cooking. Usually, the smoke from the cooking stove would be rising by this time!"
A sharp voice approached the tent, "Why are you here alone? Where are Lao Shi and the others?"
As the man spoke, he lifted a corner of the curtain with his hand.
In the tent, Zhao Muyun had already signaled Shi Yong to tiptoe towards the tent curtain.
As soon as this person sticks his head in, he will immediately take action to subdue him.
"Oh, sir, we fell down when we were fetching water just now. Lao Shi is soaked and is changing his clothes inside!"
Lin Feng said with a grin, "Do you want to go in and take a look? Lao Shi, the master wants to see you change clothes!"
Shi Gang quickly responded loudly: "Sir, I...I'm taking off my pants!"
"What a loser! He fell down even when playing with water?"
The man cursed, lowered a corner of the curtain in disgust, and said in a vicious voice, "What's so good about a naked man!"
"Hurry up and light a fire and cook. You've delayed the master's meal. I'll make you suffer!"
Lin Feng nodded and said, "I understand, sir. Let's go make a fire and cook now."
"Hmph! Don't be lazy, or I'll break your legs!"
After a while, the man's footsteps faded away, and the Shi Yong brothers breathed a sigh of relief.
Lin Feng opened the tent, stuck his head in, and said sternly: "The Tartars are gone, you continue!"
After saying that, he turned and walked out.
He was decisive and efficient, without any hesitation. This guy was quite interesting! Zhao Muyun couldn't help but take notice of Lin Feng.
"Sir, is there anything else you need to know now?" Shi Gang asked.
"Well, did you cook the meals for these 200 Tartars?" Zhao Muyun thought for a while and said.
"Yes!"
"You two are the only ones cooking for more than 200 people?" Zhao Muyun asked in surprise.
"The Tartars eat simple food, completely different from ours in Dayin. Just give them roasted lamb and stewed meat!"
Shi Gang chuckled, "Lao Lin and I often add some black material to them! Seeing them enjoy their meal is really satisfying."
Needless to say, these black materials are some dirty things, such as human and animal feces, saliva, snot, earwax, foot skin, dirt, etc.
Zhao Muyun had already noticed the two large pots outside the tent, and his eyes lit up.
Since these two hundred Tartars are eating from the same pot, let's kill them all at once.
At this moment, Zhao Muyun had an idea.
"Then help me add some more hot stuff in there later! As for what kind of stuff, I'll go get it for you nearby!"
As a special forces soldier in his previous life, Zhao Muyun had extensive experience in surviving in harsh environments such as jungles, deserted islands, deserts, grasslands, and snowfields.
At the same time, he must also understand and master the identification of various poisonous plants in the wild.
Just now, when he and Shi Yong were crawling on the hillside, they found a patch of white-throated Aconitum in the grass they were passing by.
This grass contains aconitine, and its roots are extremely toxic. After being consumed by humans and animals, they will experience drooling, difficulty breathing, blurred vision and hallucinations.
When it reaches a certain amount, it will cause death.
"Sir, do you mean to poison these Tartars?" Shi Gang became excited when he heard this.
"I'm just worried the dose won't be enough to kill people. There's some grass on the hillside where you were drawing water. Get some of their roots and put them in the pot to stew."
Zhao Muyun sneered, "Even if the poison doesn't kill them, it will make them unable to stand up!"
"Sir, we have waited for this day for too long!" Shi Gang's eyes lit up.
"Little Stone, go back right now and notify Old Han and Old Tang. Bring some men to the area and wait for orders. As soon as you hear the shouts and screams, charge in immediately. Do you understand?"
Zhao Muyun immediately asked Shi Yong to go back and report the news.
Shi Yong took the order and glanced at Shi Gang before leaving: "Brother, you must be careful!"
"Little Stone, go quickly! Don't delay Master Zhao's important business!"
Shi Gang smiled and waved.
After Shi Yong left, Zhao Muyun went to pick Aconitum carmichaelii, while Shi Gang and Lin Feng made a fire with wild grass and cow dung.
After a while, white smoke rose.
Shi Gang picked up a knife, sharpened it on the whetstone, and prepared to chop the mutton.
Zhao Muyun pulled out a handful of Aconitum carmichaelii, left the roots, went to the river to wash off the mud, and brought it back.
Seeing that Shi had just finished sharpening the knife, he took the whetstone and prepared to crush the roots of the Aconitum carmichaelii so that their toxicity would take effect faster.
When he picked up the whetstone, he found a line of blurred and incomplete Dayin characters carved on the back.
Zhao Muyun looked carefully and was shocked. The content was: Spring of the first year of Kaihuang in Dayin.
This should be a part of a stone tablet, which Shi Gang took to use as a whetstone.
"Shi Gang, where did this come from?" Zhao Muyun asked.
"Sir, it fell from a stone tablet near where the Tartars built their city. I saw it was smooth, so I used it as a whetstone!"
"Stone tablet? What's written on it?"
"I can't read, I don't know what's written on it!" Shi Gang shook his head.
"Sir, you mentioned this stone tablet. These Tartars have gone too far in bullying our Dayin!"
Lin Feng, who was working nearby, gritted his teeth when he heard Zhao Muyun talking about the stone tablet.
"You can read? Do you know what's written on it?"
"That stone tablet is inscribed with the words 'Da Yin Ding Hu Monument'! It was erected by a founding general of our Dayin. It should be to commemorate our Dayin's acquisition of this place as our territory."
