Chapter 261: When the Bird Is Dead, the Bow Is Put Away; when the Rabbit Is Dead, the Dog Is Cooked.

Yan Baihu angrily scolded the three Xuan-level generals under his seat. This so-called national list was obviously fake at first glance, and there was no extraordinary place.

Before they set out, Yan Baihu strictly ordered them to bring back the real [National List] and kill all the villagers in Tianyun Village as planned.

They planned to kill the brave men of Tianyun Village, and then disguise themselves as bandits to rob the village, and abduct some women and children to a secret place for execution.

"Boss, the situation we encountered was also very urgent. That general was very powerful. He repelled us with a charge and killed more than ten elites. We had no choice but to retreat back, so we didn't have time to look at it..." A general nodded and whispered.

They raided the ancestral temple of Tianyun Village at that time and took the so-called fake that was placed in the most conspicuous place in the center of the temple. Later, the brave men of Tianyun Village arrived, and they fought with the villagers of Tianyun Village. They had no time to see if it was a fake.

"Hmph..." Yan Baihu stared at the three people with fierce eyes and snorted.

This snort made the three people tremble all over, and they were a little scared. This boss was very fierce and brutal. This plan was made by him.

"Tell me in detail about the two generals and the situation of the hundred elites." Yan Baihu's fierce light in his eyes was restrained, and he asked softly.

After that, the three people told each other about the generals and soldiers they met.

Yan Baihu listened expressionlessly, thinking in his heart.

"It seems that the strength of these two generals who suddenly appeared should be Xuan level and Di level, but it should not be high." Yan Baihu said softly, and at the same time, he clenched his fists and made a decision in his heart.

...

After hearing Yun Wu's reason, Lin Mu and Li Dian looked at each other and understood.

It turned out that Yun Qi was born and worked under Xu Zhao. Unfortunately, Xu Zhao, the lord, wanted more and would not let go easily. Yun Qi followed the wrong lord!

Even Li Dian could guess from the information Yunwu said that Xu Zhao did not really want to restore the glory of Tianyun Country, but just used Yun Qi. He could not tear his face off at present, so he could only act secretly and pretend to be a bandit to destroy the village.

If it were Lin Mu, if Yun Qi could be recruited by him, he would definitely not completely forget the merits of the two huge treasures for a Tiandi Longchen List, and even destroy the whole clan for personal gain!

Would a lord do such evil?

In fact, Lin Mu also understood that Yunwu told him all this in order to let Lin Mu continue to protect Tianyun Village, because the real Tianyun List was still in the village, and those bandits would not let go easily, and Xu Zhao would not let go. For these overlords, since they have started, they will definitely carry it out and will not be soft-hearted.

Lin Mu and Li Dian knew what Yunwu meant, and did not expose it. Among them, Lin Mu wanted to get the treasures of Tianyun Village, and Li Dian simply wanted to help these helpless women and children.

Those bandits will definitely continue to attack the village and complete their goals after discovering that the Tianyun List is a fake!

Lin Mu sighed softly in his heart: "It seems that I can't live in peace tonight!"

Li Dian frowned, looking a little relieved. He didn't expect Xu Zhao to be such a lord. Fortunately, he didn't agree to him at that time, be loyal to him, work under him, turn a blind eye to his subordinates' contributions, and even be greedy and want to sweep Tianyun Village and reveal all the secrets in it!

If the big thing is done, it may be the ending of: [birds are dead and bows are hidden, rabbits are dead and dogs are cooked]!

How can such a lord make his subordinates die with all their heart? How can he go further? At this time, Li Dian's impression of Xu Zhao has changed from a hero who is ambitious to change the fate of millions of people to a traitor who will do whatever it takes to achieve his goal!

Lin Mu, who was next to him, saw the change in Li Dian's expression and knew that he had been affected. He was no longer so firm in Xu Zhao's promise!

Lin Mu also felt that Xu Zhao was really his lucky star. Whether it was the Qinglong Village, the Fortune Golden Cake, Liu Feng, He Yuan, Wang Sheng, etc. that he had conquered at the beginning, or Li Dian, Tianyun Village... they all seemed to be related to Xu Zhao, and slowly, they all turned into his foundation.

Lin Mu believed that this chance encounter and participation in the great changes in Tianyun Village was another great opportunity!

Lin Mu gently stroked the Seven-Star Soul-Calming Ornament made by Yinglong Longchu, thinking of the Three Dragons Fortune on his body, and his expression was full of emotion.

"Since you knew that Xu Zhao would attack you, why didn't you move? Why didn't you discuss it with your brother Yunqi?" Li Dian beside him asked softly.

"Alas, my brother has long been lost in endless glory. Now he has become the lord of a city, holding the power of life and death of countless people, and has long been obsessed with the fantasy of doing something big. He has long stopped listening to the advice of my grandfather and me. At that time, we were just like him, and we also had a little fantasy in our hearts, thinking that if Xu Zhao succeeded, he should keep his promise. Unexpectedly, now... such a tragedy has occurred! Alas..." Yun Wu looked sad, for the village, for his brother, and for the grandfather who was seriously injured and unconscious in the ancestral hall.

Indeed, if they had not had the fantasy of Xu Zhao, how could they indulge Yun Qi to take the two treasures out of the village!

"Now that we have realized his wolfish ambitions, we will definitely let my brother walk out of the illusion of glory, wake up, and start again." Yun Wu said in a deep voice.

"Tonight, those bandits may come back, and they may even be more prepared and stronger than before. Our village is in danger. It is impossible to ask for help from my brother who is far away. I wonder if the general can lend a hand again and save us from the disaster?" Yun Wu looked anxious and wanted to kneel on the ground and beg Lin Mu.

This time, Lin Mu, who was well prepared, would not let this brave man perform such a great ceremony. He helped him with a step.

"Yun Wu, you don't need to perform such a great ceremony again. Since we are already involved, we will definitely help you and let your brother fully realize the scheming and calculation of Xu Zhao!"

Lin Mu also thought a lot about Yun Qi. Helping Tianyun Village is a righteous act and a good relationship. Yun Qi, the lord of a distant city, owes a huge favor. At that time, this favor may play a key role.

"Tonight, if those bandits come again, they will be buried here!" Lin Mu said firmly.

"Thank you, General, thank you, General!" Yun Wu had no other choice. If Lin Mu and the others hadn't appeared, Tianyun Village would have become history, and his brother might have continued to immerse himself in the glory and continue to serve Xu Zhao; or, it was possible that Xu Zhao would secretly execute him in order to eliminate future troubles. In any case, Yun Qi had a bad fate.

Yun Wu told all these secrets thoroughly, and also wanted to keep Lin Mu and other elite men to protect this village that was about to be broken.

"In this case, in order to deal with possible attacks tonight, Yun Wu, you go down and organize the villagers with armed forces, let them hold weapons, wear armor, and be ready to fight at any time." Lin Mu instructed Yun Wu.

Since you want to help, you need to follow Lin Mu's ideas and commands. He will not let Yun Wu and other villagers command the battle. Isn't this handing over the fate of himself and the guards to others? Lin Mu will not do this.

Yun Wu understood Lin Mu's meaning, and his heart was at ease. At the same time, he accepted Lin Mu's command.

"Mancheng, there will be a big battle tonight, you should get some rest. The information you inquired about before has given me great confidence that they will come tonight."

The bandits have set up a camp nearby, so it is very likely that they will react. It is the best choice to attack while the village has not fully recovered. As for who will come tonight, Lin Mu does not know, but he has a guess in his mind.

"Lord, the enemy already knows our strength, and they will surely target us. We need a trick, and this trick is you, Lord!" Li Dian looked at Lin Mu and said softly.

Lin Mu knew what Li Dian meant and wanted him to use his trump card!

At present, the only thing that can make Lin Mu a trick is the previous acquisition of the [Second-rate Historical General Soul Talisman]. Only this can make Lin Mu's strength suddenly increase by several levels, and he is not inferior to the Xuan-level generals!

Originally, Lin Mu did not plan to use this [Second-rate Historical General Soul Talisman] himself, because he has trump cards such as Tailong Creation Code and Duyaolong Divine Spear, which can fight across levels. If he uses this soul talisman again, it can only be icing on the cake, not a timely help.
