Chapter 42 [VIP]



As the task was released, Langyun University began to respond quickly.

The student union acted quickly, convening relevant majors and arranging other matters.

As a national defense student, Zhang Miaomiao prepared to select members of the guard team to help her protect the students as they go down the mountain.

However, when taking a closer look at the assignment, Zhang Miaomiao asked curiously, "Does our school have a major in prosthetics and orthotics?"

The one who answered her was Shao Zhu, who was there to see her off on behalf of the student union: "Yes, it has. It's only been open for a few years. Although it's not as popular as other majors, it has also cultivated many good talents."

Zhang Miaomiao exclaimed: "I still have no idea about the power of our school."

At this time, the students from the Prosthetics and Orthotics and Mechanical Design majors had gathered at the school gate, formed a small team, brought the necessary items, and went down the mountain with the winemakers from Zhou State.

Zhang Miaomiao stopped talking, said goodbye to Shao Zhu and left.

Shao Zhu looked at his back and said to the people around him with some concern: "She is so thin, how can she be able to protect others?"

Before he finished speaking, he saw Zhang Miaomiao had already walked to a male classmate and picked up the equipment with one hand, which the male student couldn't hold with both hands.

Shao Zhu: ...

I'm sorry, I didn't know anything about the young lady's power!

As everyone went down the mountain, students from different majors who were not familiar with each other quickly became familiar with each other.

But the winemakers of Zhou State never opened their mouths.

Although they had studied in Langyun for quite some time, the more they came into contact with it, the more magical they felt the fairyland was, and their respect for the immortals grew day by day.

Now when we walk together, we even feel a little restrained.

In contrast, the students of Langyun were very comfortable and chatted enthusiastically.

As a member of the prosthetics and orthotics engineering team, Yin Xiu was particularly excited about this "overseas mission".

Unlike many of his classmates, Yin Xiu was already a graduating senior before he traveled through time, and had already found a hospital to begin his internship.

The reason I returned to school that day was to prepare for graduation. In addition to some materials and documents, I also had a meal with my roommates to commemorate their entry into society.

When I woke up, the school was still the same school, but the society was no longer the same society.

At the beginning, Yin Xiu was naturally confused and missed home, but people always have a strong ability to adapt.

Especially after the system came online and pointed out a clear way for them to enjoy modern life in ancient times, everyone was working towards this direction.

After a long time, you get used to it.

Instead of crying, it is better to face the reality, learn more and do more.

Yin Xiu, who had some practical experience, was forced to delay his graduation and became a teacher's assistant at school.

But in his heart, he still hopes to use what he has learned to help people with disabilities.

Otherwise he would not have chosen such a major.

When he saw the new task this time, Yin Xiu volunteered to come out and help.

At this moment, Student Yin completely regarded this trip as a work internship, and the internship salary was the points reward.

Of course, he would also bring back a box of gold and silver.

But these things are far less important than points.

When people are happy, they always want to chat.

As Yin Xiu walked down the mountain, he asked the winemaker who was traveling with him, "I see you brought a lot of things. What are they?"

Basically every craftsman was carrying a big bag, and earlier today, when the Langyun students were still preparing, the Zhou guards had already sent down a batch of bags, all of which looked very heavy.

Upon hearing this, the craftsman immediately replied, "These are the lessons the immortals have left for us these days."

Yin Xiu was stunned at first, his eyes couldn't help but glance at the large bag on the man's back, a little surprised: "You have to do so much homework?"

How many papers are these...

He wasn't this ruthless during his senior year sprint.

The craftsman smiled and said, "This is all thanks to the Immortal." He took out a gourd and said, "I have some freshly made work here. You can have a taste."

Yin Xiu: ...Why is your homework edible?

However, after taking it and pulling out the cork, you can smell the rich aroma of wine wafting out.

Yin Xiu was stunned for a moment, then he remembered that these were winemakers, and their job was naturally to distill liquor.

Compared to the sweet and fragrant rice wine, the wine in his hand now is much stronger. Just by smelling it, you can tell that it has a certain purity.

Yin Xiu didn't know how to drink, so he didn't drink. He just refilled his bottle and said with a smile, "It seems like your academic performance is very good."

The craftsman's face turned red, and then he showed a simple smile.

But soon, his eyes looked at the bag Yin Xiu was carrying.

The bag was black and cylindrical with a zipper, and looked quite heavy.

In order to quickly understand Zhong Yao's situation and physical condition, Yin Xiu not only brought testing equipment, but also brought a model, ready to let the ancient man who had never seen a prosthesis get used to it first.

So the craftsman hurriedly said, "This thing looks heavy. Why don't we let the immortal share his worries?"

Yin Xiu smiled and shook his head, saying softly, "I'll take this thing myself."

As he said this, he patted the black bag.

What is contained inside is the prosthetic model.

It’s not that expensive, but it’s too special, so it’s safer to carry it with you.

The craftsman sighed softly, "The immortal truly cares for us."

Yin Xiu smiled and said, "I'm afraid the things inside will scare you."

Craftsman: ???

At this time, Teacher Chu had already received the news that Langyun and his group were setting off.

He quickly adjusted his schedule and added two classes related to farm tools tomorrow.

The students of the branch school naturally agreed with both hands. They all had farming experience, and because of this, they understood how convenient and labor-saving the modified farm tools used by the immortals were.

Gongzi Zhang was also equally excited.

He immediately ran back to tell his sister the good news.

Kong Lingyun was not familiar with farming, nor did she know how beneficial the improvement of agricultural tools would be.

She simply poured Kong Zhang a cup of tea and said, "You look so happy. Do you want to learn from me again?"

Kong Zhang nodded immediately: "Of course I have to learn!"

Kong Lingyun felt a bitter taste in her mouth.

She was already thinking about how to explain to her father why her brother had become so obsessed with farming after just one trip...

Then, Gongzi Zhang said, "If the immortal could really pass down the method of making these agricultural tools, it would not only benefit Dechang County, but the entire Zhou Kingdom... No, it would benefit future generations!"

This one sentence made Princess Lingyun slightly stunned, and the look in her eyes when she looked at Kong Zhang also changed a little.

I used to think that my younger brother was just doing it on a whim due to his personal preference, but now it seems that he thinks further and more carefully than I expected.

However, Kong Zhang did not notice the change in Kong Lingyun's expression. He picked up the teacup and drank it all, then went back to the branch school to continue attending classes.

Today is another day to study hard and make progress every day!

There was peace in the Langyun branch school, and Dechang County was also very peaceful.

But in the dungeon, the atmosphere was not so peaceful.

Perhaps because they had already extracted enough information from the barbarian minions, the Zhou people did not want to waste the prison, so they had already locked up the barbarian leader Tang En and several of his minions, awaiting punishment.

At this time, Tang En's brows were furrowed and his face looked extremely bad.

In fact, Tang En had already noticed something was wrong when he was imprisoned separately from the others.

It was just that the dungeon's soundproofing was too good, and Lang Yun and his companions had such a sophisticated plan that they didn't even have time to react, and they knew everything that Huo Duo and his companions knew.

Even Hodor believed in the rebellion.

When Tang En was imprisoned again, these three young barbarians teamed up to fight him to the death.

If it weren't for Tang En's superb martial arts skills, it's unknown whether he would ever see the light of day again.

From beginning to end, Huo Duo had no idea what the Zhou people had done, and even thought that he had indeed eaten poison and was detoxified.

However, their hostility towards Tang En gradually dissipated.

Because for several days, no one came to care about them, and the high-ranking positions and generous salaries that had been promised to them were nowhere to be seen.

Even the dumbest person knows that he has been fooled.

So Huo Duo finally spoke, saying to Tang En for the first time in recent days: "Boss, can we find a way to escape on our own?"

Tang En's expression was cold, and it was obvious that he still held a grudge.

But he also knew that he was now alone and helpless, and they still had to help each other to have a chance.

The reckoning could wait until later.

So Tang En said, "It's difficult."

The other barbarian nodded. "This is a specially built dungeon. When I was imprisoned here, I counted them. There are nine doors from the entrance to the dungeon. Each door is heavily guarded, making it difficult to get out."

Huo Duo said, "I have left signals with special spices along the way. As long as General Wu can find them, he will know we are here."

The other two immediately looked up, their faces excited: "Really?"

Huo Duo nodded.

And they didn't ask why it wasn't said before.

Because everyone can guess the reason.

Before, they always felt that they must rebel against the Barbarian Kingdom and pledge allegiance to the Zhou Kingdom, so naturally they would not reveal any relationship between them and the Barbarian Kingdom.

But now it’s different. The Zhou people are cunning and have deceived them, so their lifeline naturally becomes General Wu.

One barbarian was quite worried: "Will what we said to the Zhou people harm General Wu? Besides...what we did was tantamount to rebellion."

Huo Duo was very determined: "As long as we can leave the dungeon, where we go in the future is up to us."

The barbarians were stunned for a moment, then realized that this might be their last chance to survive.

They just hope that the Zhou Kingdom has not yet found General Wu's whereabouts, or that General Wu has moved to a new place of residence, so that they can have a chance of survival.

But from beginning to end, Tang En did not speak a word.

Compared with these young barbarians, he is more sober and has a better understanding of the barbarian officials.

Although he usually looks generous and humble, and even treats his soldiers as brothers, General Wu will never show mercy when it comes to giving up.

Compared with countries like Qi and Zhou, the survival rules of the barbarian countries are closer to the law of the jungle.

Those who fall behind will be eliminated, and the weak will be swallowed up.

Tang En really didn't think that General Wu would come to rescue them.

But this time, Tang En was obviously wrong.

General Wu of the Barbarian Kingdom had already sent people to look for them.

The reason was not to save them, but because the few barbarians who went to explore the way had not returned for a long time and there was no news.

I think he disappeared so suddenly, either because of an accident or because his identity was exposed.

If Dechang County suddenly moves, it will prove that their purpose has been exposed, and General Wu will naturally turn around and run away, and make plans somewhere else.

It just so happened that Dechang County had been silent and peaceful these days, which made General Wu a little confused.

So he did not act rashly, but asked someone to check it out carefully, and today he finally got the result.

They found traces left by Huo Duo.

Originally, it was Tang En who should have done the job of leaving traces, but at that time Tang En was knocked to the ground by two anesthetic injections from Yan Tao, so Huo Duo did it himself.

The result was that he only left traces, but did not use different scents to indicate his current situation.

So the news the barbarians received was that they were still safe, but their location was uncertain.

So General Wu sent his capable followers to catch up, find Tang En and the others, and ask them about the situation in detail.

When the barbarian's personal followers and their men rode away from the army, they did not notice that someone was staring at them closely on the hillside not far away.

The leader was Zheng Duwei of Dechang County.

He frowned, put down the telescope in his hand, and carefully stuffed it into his leather bag, fearing that it would be damaged.

The captain standing by was a little envious, especially when he knew that this thing was given to Dechang County by an immortal and was lent to Zheng Duwei by County Magistrate Yue.

He also wants to possess the things of immortals.

But he quickly came to his senses and asked in a low voice, "Sir, is there any unusual movement?"

Captain Zheng frowned, "The barbarians sent a few people away. I don't know what they're going to do."

The deputy was stunned for a moment, then quickly asked, "But our purpose has been exposed?"

Captain Zheng frowned even more deeply, thought for a moment, and shook his head. "Probably not. If they knew we were planning to burn the food supplies tonight, the first thing they would do would be to be on guard and move the supplies, not just wait here and do nothing."

Yes, tonight is the day that Dechang County will take action against the barbarians.

Although he had learned of General Wu's plan and location from Huo Duo a few days ago, County Magistrate Yue was very cautious and did not act rashly.

This was not the first time he had faced the barbarians, and he had a clear understanding of their fighting power and vigilance.

If you want to destroy them quietly, the first step is to attack their food supplies, then form a siege, defeat them in one fell swoop, and eliminate future troubles.

To achieve this, we must not alert the enemy.

So these days, Dechang County has been quietly sending soldiers to approach the barbarian army and ambush them on the mountains on both sides.

Tonight is the day to take action.

However, he did not expect that General Wu sent his men away, and the leader, Captain Zheng, was recognized as Qiao Lun, a close follower of General Wu whom he trusted very much.

Although he estimated that he had not been exposed, out of caution, Captain Zheng still said, "Pick some capable people and follow Qiao Lun to see what he wants to do."

The captain responded and then left quietly.

On the other hand, Qiao Lun was somewhat disapproving of the mission assigned to him by General Wu this time.

In his opinion, Tang En was a guy with a bear's body and a pig's head, and he could never do anything great.

Now that he hasn't returned for several days, it would be a waste of effort for me to go look for him by myself. It would be better for me to go directly to Dechang County to find out the truth.

But since it was an order from his own general, he couldn't disobey.

He was just thinking in his heart that once he found Tang En, no matter what his reasons were, he would file a complaint against General Wu when he returned, and make that guy who delayed the military affairs go back to the barbarian country and eat grass.

He was indignant, but this did not stop Qiao Lun from looking for the person.

He brought out two mastiffs and soon found traces left by Huo Duo.

The mastiff was extremely fast, and as it was getting dark, Qiao Lun spurred his horse to chase after it.

But the Dechang County captain who followed them became more and more frightened.

A soldier beside him whispered, "Judging from his direction, he's heading towards the county town."

The deputy commander frowned. "Are they planning to break into the county town? Or are they going to rescue those barbarians?"

And this question will not be answered until Qiao Lun is caught.

The captain did not hesitate much and quickly made up his mind.

We must not let the barbarians break into the county town!

There are not only civilians in the city, but also immortals and nobles. It would not be a good thing to disturb any of them.

It is better to eliminate the danger as soon as possible.

So the deputy commander immediately said, "Go up and stop them!"

"yes!"

Since the people brought out this time were all carefully selected capable people, they were extremely efficient and fast, and went straight towards Qiao Lun and the others.

Qiao Lun is no pushover either. The fact that he was chosen by General Wu is enough to prove his extraordinary ability.

Even in the darkness, he seemed to have eyes on the back of his head. He turned his head quickly and immediately tightened the reins when he found something wrong. He didn't care about the mastiff and just whispered in a barbarian language: "Enemy, draw your sword!"

The next second, the remaining barbarians drew their swords.

The tension is on the verge of breaking out.

Just at this moment, some light suddenly appeared from the woods.

Faintly, there were voices of conversation: "It's getting dark, Immortal Lord, should we find a place to rest?"

"We should get out of the woods first. It's even more unsafe in here." The voice paused. "Have the carriages behind us follow closely and don't fall behind."

The person who said this was Yin Xiu.

They had originally set off at noon, and according to the time calculation, they would have arrived in Dechang County by the evening.

However, since they brought a lot of things this time, including various tools from the mechanical engineering department and carts of wine jars from Zhou State craftsmen, and Yin Xiu and his colleagues also brought a lot of equipment, although they had the help of a horse-drawn carriage, they were still a little slow.

Even though night has fallen, the county town is still not visible.

Fortunately, I either rode horses or took cars along the way, so I didn’t feel tired.

At this moment, Yin Xiu was sitting on a horse, and next to him was Zhang Miaomiao who was also riding a horse.

As a national defense student, the purpose of Zhang Miaomiao's trip is to protect the safety of Langyun students.

At this time, the Zhou craftsman suggested: "How about we light a few more lanterns?"

Yin Xiu shook the flashlight: "Don't use it for now. If there are wild beasts, it won't be too late to light the torch later." As he said that, he looked at Zhang Miaomiao, as if he wanted to wait for the other party's opinion.

But Zhang Miaomiao didn't look back at this time.

She was professionally trained and more vigilant than others. She also carried a device that could amplify nearby sounds.

At this moment, Zhang Miaomiao frowned and said softly, "Don't talk yet, something seems to be wrong."

Everyone immediately stopped talking, including the Zhou guards.

Yin Xiu asked quietly, "What's wrong?"

Zhang Miaomiao pointed to her headphones and said, "I originally thought the sound just now was made by animals in the woods, but just now I could vaguely hear the sound of metal colliding."

Just one sentence made the Zhou guards alert.

They wanted to stay where they were and explore the front before making a decision.

But they didn't go, but someone came on their own initiative!

Qiao Lun noticed the light here, so he rode his horse to level two and rushed over!

He thought that anyone who was still walking around at this time, no matter if they were peddlers returning home late or farmers tending the fields, was after all someone from Dechang County.

It sounded like what they were saying was the Zhou language.

As long as you move quickly, no matter whether you capture them as prisoners or fight your way out, it is always better than a head-on confrontation with those elite soldiers.

So Qiao Lun quickly ran towards the convoy.

After the road turned a corner in the woods, the two sides met.

Qiao Lun obviously didn't expect there would be so many people. The Zhou craftsman on the convoy shuddered when he saw the scimitar Qiao Lun was holding: "It's barbarians!"

One sentence made everyone nervous.

Zhang Miaomiao was relatively relaxed.

She first reached out and grabbed the smoke bomb in her pocket, muttering, "Where did they come from... Is this a horror version of love around the corner?"

However, this joke did not receive any response from Yin Xiu.

Although they have traveled back to ancient times, the school has everything they want. As long as they exchange points, they can enjoy modern life. There are also barriers for protection, so as long as the students are smart, they will not run away for no reason.

The same goes for Yin Xiu. This was his first time going down the mountain. Where had he seen such a scene before?

At this moment, his back was straightened with nervousness, and his expression was blank.

The Zhou guards here immediately showed their weapons and shouted, "Who are you?"

Zhang Miaomiao shook her head and thought, if it weren't for the TV series, this sentence would basically get no response.

The fact was just as Zhang Miaomiao expected, Qiao Lun had no intention of introducing himself.

Asking is just asking a lonely question.

He felt that he had forced himself into a dead end. Behind him were the soldiers of Dechang County, and in front of him was a group of people who came from nowhere. It was not easy to find another way out now.

So, Qiao Lun gritted his teeth and decided to go all out.

Although there are many guards in front of them, it can be seen at a glance that they are far inferior to the soldiers chasing them.

It would be better to start with them!

So, Qiao Lun raised his hand and said in barbarian language: "Catch a few alive!"

Although the barbarians who came with them were all General Wu's subordinates on the surface, the daily routine of the barbarian country was to cause trouble and rob everywhere, so they were quite familiar with this kind of hostage-taking work.

So several people wanted to rush over and catch the people who were surrounded!

Only when I walked a little closer did I realize that those people were dressed in very strange clothes.

They don't look like Zhou people, nor do they look like barbarians, and they even have short hair...

The fashions of the Zhou people changed so much that it was hard to understand.

All the people in Langyun who were targeted subconsciously gathered together, and Zhang Miaomiao quickly gathered several other national defense students to form the last line of defense.

When those people were about to approach, Zhang Miaomiao threw the smoke bomb out without saying a word!

Then he stretched out his hand and said hurriedly: "Give it to me!"

In fact, she was talking to the guards on the other side. Because she had enough arm strength, she wanted to throw another one.

But these words were heard by Yin Xiu who was standing behind him.

I have to say that Yin Xiu is really nervous at the moment.

If this scene were in a TV series, he would find it extremely exciting and thrilling, and might even want to "start fighting quickly"!

But if it happens to you, anyone would be confused.

Even though he knew rationally that these barbarians would be stopped by the Zhou guards, and Zhang Miaomiao and the guards who followed them had brought enough things to protect them, he was still a little panicked because of nervousness.

As a result, when Zhang Miaomiao spoke, Yin Xiu's first reaction was that this person was talking to him.

So he handed over the only black bag he had.

Zhang Miaomiao was in a tense state at the moment. She felt her hand sink. Without thinking, she threw it out according to her muscle memory!

But after throwing it out, I realized something was wrong.

Huh? Why is it so much heavier than expected? And she doesn't think it's round?

It seems a little soft...

Yin Xiu finally came back to his senses, looking blankly at himself with empty hands. Then he raised his head and stared at the smoke in front of him for a moment: "Where did the smoke bomb come from?"

Zhang Miaomiao quickly replied, "Teacher Ruan gave it to me." She paused, "What did you give me just now?"

Yin Xiu opened his mouth, but because there were indigenous people beside him, he didn't know how to describe it, so he could only vaguely say: "Just, homework..."

Zhang Miaomiao: ???

I have to say that Miaomiao is very strong. She even accidentally opened the zipper of the bag when throwing it.

Then, a white object was visible to the naked eye and flew into the smoke!

For the barbarians, the current situation is enough to make them panic.

The smoke that appeared inexplicably blocked most of the vision, and it was accompanied by a pungent smell.

This is really unbelievable!

But Qiao Lun was determined.

Anything can happen on the battlefield, especially since the Zhou State is good at craftsmanship. They have created many unexpected things in the past, and this one is probably their work.

After confirming that the smoke was non-toxic, Qiao Lun prepared to continue his previous actions!

It only blurred his vision, but it did not stop his movements. He would soon spur his horse forward.

But at this moment, I suddenly saw a white object flying towards me...

Is this a hidden weapon?

Why is it so big!

But Qiao Lun still chose to reach out and grab the thing directly.

Because it was dark and there was smoke in the convoy, he couldn't see clearly what he had caught, but it was obviously not a weapon.

Qiao Lun sneered and said in broken Zhou dialect, "You Zhou people are nothing special. Your skills in using hidden weapons are really not up to par..."

But as the smoke cleared, with the help of moonlight and the light of flashlights that had been turned on in the convoy, he finally saw clearly what was in his hand.

I was stunned for a moment.

The barbarians next to them also saw it.

This is a leg...

It really is a leg!

Every detail is lifelike and looks soft...

Several barbarians were speechless for a moment. The next second, their pupils trembled at the same time, and they blurted out a barbarian word: "Fuck!"

Isn’t it said that the Zhou people valued their lives very much?

Now...

Why would someone break off their legs and chop others down?
