Chapter 201 Is it hard to find good results?
The soldiers below watched as the man flew into the sky, and couldn't help but let out a series of exclamations.
After the four people came down, Lin Changning switched to another team.
It's better to be safe than sorry, and it's safest to try a few more times. After the other team came up, Lin Changning asked them as usual if it was safe.
After receiving a positive reply, Lin Changning signaled for someone to pull them down. Once they were down, Lin Changning looked at Qi Rong and said, "Commander, you can have them go ahead and do it. If we're going to launch a surprise attack, we'll probably need about 20 of these large balls."
Qi Rong waved his hand, telling Zhiqi to handle the matter, while he and Qin Zhong were somewhat eager to try.
Qin Zhong walked up to Lin Changning with his hands behind his back, seemingly casually: "Commander Lin, what can you see from flying up in the sky?"
Lin Changning didn't react at first and said bluntly, "It's quite windy up there. If you look down, you can see the parts of the camp that have light, but if you look further out, it's just a dark, gloomy expanse. The area in the city might be a little clearer."
Qin Zhong shook his head, seemingly sighing, "Commander Lin's idea is absolutely brilliant. I haven't seen anyone fly into the sky in all these years."
Qi Rong, understanding what Qin Zhong meant, smiled and looked at Lin Changning: "Xiao Liu, I haven't been up there either. Why don't you lead the team, including Lao Qin and Lao Han, up to take a look?"
Old Han suddenly popped over: "That's right, Brother Lin, I, Old Han, have never been to heaven before."
Lin Changning was both amused and exasperated, but the four of them were a perfect team, and they had already tried it a few times, so there shouldn't be any problems.
Thinking of this, Lin Changning led his people toward the hot air balloon. The four of them each occupied a basket, and after standing on it, they couldn't help but bend over.
Especially Qin Zhong and Lao Han, their baskets were almost too big to fit them both; even though they were squatting down, most of their bodies were still sticking out.
Lin Changning couldn't help but remind them, "Commander Qin, Lao Han, move closer to the middle. If you're too close to the edge, you'll lose your balance and fall!"
The two nodded obediently and silently moved further inside.
Once everything was ready, Lin Changning called out, "Slowly release the ropes."
With the soldiers pulling it from below, the hot air balloon slowly rose into the air. The three men looked into the distance with bright eyes. The higher they flew, the stronger the night wind became.
The hot air balloon hangs in the sky like a bright, gleaming sign.
The large hot air balloon was very conspicuous in the sky, and the unsuspecting people in the city center thought there were two moons.
There was a sudden commotion in the city, and someone quickly went to inform the old prince.
The old prince was helped out of the door, limping. As soon as he looked up, he saw a large golden ball hanging in the sky that looked like some unknown thing.
Startled, he glanced at the location and hurriedly summoned several guards to rush to Lin Changning's camp.
The strange phenomenon caused the old prince to wonder if something had happened to the people Qi Rong had brought in.
In a hurry, after being helped into the camp, he was supported and limped towards the hot air balloon.
Watching a group of people pull on the rope, which floated upwards, the end of the rope turned out to be a large sphere radiating golden light.
I was so scared I almost fainted.
Qi Rong watched with a good mood as the old prince limped into their camp.
"Your Highness, what brings you here so late at night?"
Old Wang couldn't see anyone, but he could vaguely hear a sound coming from the sky, which immediately frightened him so much that his face turned pale.
However, one could still recognize that it was the voice of Prince Qi. Looking up, one could see the figure below the sphere of light in the dark sky.
All sorts of monsters and demons came to mind.
Qi Rong found it somewhat amusing that the man remained silent for so long.
Lin Changning had some wicked intentions and whispered something in Qi Rong's ear.
Qi Rong raised an eyebrow and chuckled, "Little Six, you..."
Lin Changning chuckled, which aroused the curiosity of Qin Zhong and Lao Han. Qi Rong ordered his men to drag them away.
Once the group had settled into solid ground, Qi Rong went straight to meet them.
"What brings Your Highness here so late?"
The old prince stammered, unsure of what to say.
Lin Changning looked at the old prince with a smile. When people get old, they start to believe in all sorts of superstitions. The old prince must have been informed that they were conducting an experiment in this place in a grand manner today, with a bright hot air balloon floating in the air late at night.
Naturally, this would attract the attention of the old prince, and he intended to use this matter to deceive the old prince.
The old prince pointed at the hot air balloon and asked, "Young Master, what are you doing here?"
Qi Rong shook his head mysteriously: "Your Highness, it cannot be said, it cannot be said."
Qin Zhong remained calm and composed, glancing at the old prince indifferently before keeping silent.
The more they refused to tell him, the more the old prince became anxious and wanted to know what was going on.
"Oh dear, Your Highness, please tell me quickly, what happened tonight? The people in the city are all saying that there are strange phenomena in the sky, so I rushed over here."
Qi Rong shook his head and remained silent.
At this moment, Lin Changning looked at the old prince and sighed: "It is not that my commander is unwilling to tell the old prince, but the immortal has invited me and it is inconvenient to say."
The old prince gasped and grabbed Lin Changning's hands tightly: "What did you say? An immortal?"
Lin Changning pried open the old prince's hands, pretending that he had let something slip, covered his mouth, and fell silent as well.
Actually, I was overjoyed.
The old prince grew increasingly anxious, wanting to get to the bottom of things, but these people remained silent.
Now that he's getting older, he's become more and more superstitious. Tonight, he saw people go up to the sky with his own eyes, and there was a ball of light in the sky.
Qi Rong pretended to be profound and said, "Although heavenly secrets cannot be revealed, there is something I still need to tell Your Highness. We will not be traveling with the main force. In the next few days, we will reorganize our troops and head to Datong to seize the city first."
The old prince calmed down a bit, and became slightly more lucid when military matters were mentioned: "You're only taking 3,000 men to attack Datong? That's a lot."
Lin Changning patted his chest, feigning frankness, and said, "Your Highness, rest assured, we have the help of immortals, it's settled."
At this point, Lin Changning seemed to realize what he had said, and covered his mouth, refusing to say another word.
The old prince was skeptical, but he didn't believe that anyone could ascend to heaven out of thin air. If there really was a celestial being helping them, how could these people have reached the heavens in the middle of the night by riding a divine artifact?
Qi Rong glared at Lin Changning: "You can't even keep your mouth shut!"
After saying that, he looked at the old prince and said, "The reasons are hard to explain, but there is something I must remind the old prince of."
The old prince cupped his hands and said earnestly, "Please tell me, Your Highness."
Qi Rong stared intently into the old prince's eyes and said seriously, "If you are cautious and virtuous throughout your life, without any desires or ambitions, you can ensure a lifetime of glory and enjoy a long and peaceful life. If you act recklessly and arbitrarily, you will be deeply entangled in karma and burdened with sins, and you will inevitably suffer misfortune and find it difficult to achieve good results."
