Chapter 1248: Assassin outside the city

Sitting on the horseback galloping toward the flame city, Shen Wenchong turned back and asked: "Less master, do you know the feng shui engine?"
"I don't know." Lin Chi replied casually.
"It is rumored that there was an ancient military division that created a device that could control the dolls." Shen Wenchong explained with great interest: "It is a pity that his organs have not been handed down. The organs of this era are inferior imitations...

- So the current Shen Wenchong, has not become a professional organ?
Realizing that his followers seemed to "degenerate", Lin Chi did not say anything and turned to look at the jungle that passed by.
Shen Wenchong, who is now working for himself, is the younger version of the old man who was recruited. Although he has a strong fighting power, he has degenerated to the primary level in the accomplishments of the organs.
In this way, Shen Wenchong's position has also changed from "mass weapon of mass destruction" to "personal guard". Although it solves the urgent need, it can be said that it has been seriously weakened in the long run.
"We are here." Shen Wenchong said, grabbing the reins, and the running horse screamed to stop: "The wildfire is tired, let it rest."
"Okay." Lin Chi jumped from the back of the horse and reached out and patted his cheek that was blown by the wind. Follow the Shen Wenchong of the horse, and follow the road to his own territory.
On the broken wooden sign in front, "Flame City" is written in a strange and slender text. Under the function of the game's built-in translation system, Lin Chi can fully understand the meaning of the text.
In order to facilitate communication, the language used by the NPCs in this game seems to be a kind of self-made "universal language". Even the words spoken by the younger brothers controlled by Lin Chi are also the same language:
"This is... Flame City?"
Looking at the crooked stone road in front of him, Lin is really reluctant to believe that this ghost place is his own territory:
The expected war barriers do not exist. It is better to say that it is a ruin. Not to mention the stone houses, not even a wooden house, all the broken houses that are supported by wooden sticks.
On both sides of the road full of crack marks, several ragged hawkers are stalling. A few pedestrians passing by the street, the clothes on the body look like the original people, directly draping the leaves and rags together, from their dark faces, it must have been a bath for a long time.
"Buy an apple..."
A scrawny hawker lifted his already shrinking apple to Lin, and opened his mouth to reveal a smirk.
Lin Chi hasn't spoken yet, and Shen Wenchong, who is holding the horse, has stood by his side, his expression full of disgust:
"Less master, ignore them, this is a slum, just return to the city."
"The gap between the rich and the poor is so big." Lin Chi frowned slightly.
"In order to develop the military, it is inevitable to sacrifice a small number of people. This is unavoidable." Shen Wenchong said coldly.
Unlike the "gentle" little master, this guard has no compassion, just speeding up the pace and taking the horse to the front.
The poor inhabitants here do not seem to recognize the boy as the lord. If they found their true identity, would these guys bow down, or would they wave their sticks and rush to smash their heads into meat sauce?
Looking at these ragged inhabitants, Lin Chi already understood the answer to the question. But now, he has no solution to this problem.
"You have to go back to the 'Imperial Palace' first."
Lin Chi, who has not yet arrived in the city, does not know what his place of residence is. But according to Shen Wenchong's dress, the situation in the city should not be too bad.
As a young master, it is normal to have a palace.
However, in this game, the kind of stuff doesn't really make much sense.
The two walked through the run-down streets, passing through a few huts that were smelling bad. Lin Chi saw a pair of mothers and daughters on the street playing and looking very happy.
Although the residents here are poor, they do not seem to blame themselves and are still living very strong. If this is the case, you may be able to find ways to win over these residents and make them a strong backing for Flamewind City.
Perhaps because of the abandonment of the jurisdiction of this area, even the patrolling soldiers can not see, Shen Wenchong took Ma Dabu to walk in front, Lin Chi followed closely, followed him into a deserted trail.
"Are you sure you are going this way?" Lin Chi looked at the nearby thatch and shrubs.
"Less master, stand behind me." Shen Wenchong said that he pulled out the short knife hanging around his waist and turned to look at the slum that had just passed: "I have to solve some things in the next place. From now on, someone has been following us..."
When the words came out, the weeds of half a person were suddenly screaming.
- Have an ambush?
Lin Chi immediately stood behind Shen Wenchong and stared at the weeds in a vigilant manner. Under his gaze, the two short figures suddenly stood up, clasping sharp wooden spears with both hands, and stabbing Shen Shenchong's chest straight!
In the face of the deadly assassination of the enemy, Shen Wenchong was still not busy, and suddenly turned around before the last moment before the spear pierced the white.
The strength of the two ambushes is large, but it is very difficult for the spur attack to turn. Seeing that the two guys are still moving forward, Shen Wenchong directly turns back to a whip leg and squats on one of the shoulders.
"Uh!"
The sound of the pain sounded, and the small attacker was kicked out and slammed into the companion next to him. The two men fell heavily on the ground.
They still want to struggle to get up. Shen Wenchong has already grabbed the collars of the two guys, lifted the two men directly, and violently threw them on the grass next to them, screaming:
"Small age to robbery? Do not learn good things."
Upon hearing this, Lin Chi came over and looked down at the two people. It was the dirty face that was childish and the red eyes like a hungry wolf.
Even if he was subdued by Shen Wenchong, the two children wearing grass blades and carrying "Geely costume camouflage" are still a dissatisfied appearance. The two men tried to get up with their hands, but the painful limbs kept them lying on the ground, whispering incessantly.
"You... are you going to starve?" Lin Chi looked at the two dark-skinned children.
"Less master, these children have been robbed since they were young. When they grow up, they must be traitors. They should be executed directly." Shen Wenchong bit his teeth.
"No, I think they can come in handy." Lin Chi whispered.
As soon as this was said, Shen Wenchong looked back at Lin Chi with a strange look. One of the children was squinting and snoring because of the pain. "We will not loyal to you, hateful." Bad guys!"
After hearing the child's remarks, Lin Chi asked: "Why do you say this? Are you a bad guy who is clearly robbed?"
"It's all harmful!" The child with a hair like a dry grass clenched his fists hard: "If it weren't for you, it wouldn't be like this!"
Shen Wenchong kicked his foot and kicked the child's waist and interrupted the other's words.
"A nonsense!" Shen Wenchong said that he would cut the knife.
"Don't move." Lin Chi said loudly.
"I will marry them, little master..."
"I said don't move!" Lin Chi said.
Although still a child, the voice of "Little Master" is still strong enough to successfully shake the violent followers, and the knife in Shen Wenchong's hand has finally been released.
"Less Lord, you are the woman's benevolence, you were not like this before." Shen Wenchong shook his head.
"I think they are still useful." Lin Chi said, kneeling beside the child who spoke, and asked, "What about your family?"
"Get out of the way!" The child opened his mouth and would bite up, and Lin Chi escaped.
"If I didn't guess wrong, your family has passed away, right?" Lin said softly.
Although the two children did not answer, the expression that suddenly distorted on the small face has already provided Lin Chi with an answer.
"You think that poverty here is caused by the exploitation of the rich, so we will hate us, is that true?" Lin Chi continued.
"You... it!"
The child was still full of hate, and the other child beside him, as if he had figured it out, slowly opened his mouth:
"Don't say, let's go back? I don't want to die..."
"Are you so rude?" The child who was talking was stunned: "It's all harmful! Don't let them go!"
Listening to the resentful words of the other party, Lin Chi looked at Shen Wenchong standing on the side and found that Shen Wenchong at this time was also bowing his head.
- It seems that Shen Wenchong also knows that these children will fall to this point, which is caused by the rulers of Yanfeng City.
With Shen Wenchong's skill, he can completely kill the opponent in an instant, but he did not kill the two children. It is conceivable that even this guy is also apologetic for the "robbery" in this place.
However, Lin Chi did not let them out because of pure kindness:
"You just ambushed very well, even I couldn't find it." Lin Chi said with a smile: "And it's quite awkward when I start, I like..."
Looking at the child's eyes like a beast, Lin Chi extended his right hand to him and asked: "I just need some people who do 'dirty work'. How do you both join my majesty? Just help me to do things. It’s a good thing to have a good thing, and it’s not a good thing to sleep like it.
"Less master, they are not worth trusting." Shen Wenchong reminded.
This time, the answer to Lin Chi’s problem is the long-haired child who is lying next to him.
He lifted his head effortlessly and confronted Lin Chi with a small face covered with dirt. He whispered, "What do you want to do?"
"Don't talk to him!" The child next to him reached for the shoulder of his companion: "They are enemies!"
Looking down at the two children who are arguing, Lin Chi said the content of "doing things" in a plain tone:
"kill."
When the words came out, even the child who had been resisting suddenly became silent.
"Less Lord, you..." Shen Wenchong's expression is very complicated.
"You hate the rich people in the city. I think they let your family break and be displaced. Is it right?" Lin Chi chuckled: "I may need to 'handle' some of them recently. You kids are not It is easy to attract attention, just to do things for me."
"You mean... can I kill them?" The child who was still resisting, seems to be shining in her eyes.
"Yes, as long as you help me to do things, you can handcuff the enemy, but also live a good life, is it cost-effective?" Lin Chi smiled.
"Less Lord, are you thinking..." Shen Wenchong frowned and stared at him.
"We are open and honest." Lin Chi stood in front of Shen Wenchong and looked up at the other's face: "The current ‘little master’ has no real power, just an overhead squat, I am right?

"Your age is too small, you need someone to help..." Shen Wenchong's voice suddenly became smaller.
"When I was in the carriage, I was confused. Why did I appear in the wilderness inexplicably? There are not many guards around me. If you didn't arrive in time, I am afraid I have been taken away. It is."
"That is the ignorance of the Guard." Shen Wenchong lowered his head.
Lin Chi Shen said: "I asked, why did you appear there and saved me?
"I didn't feel relieved at the time, so I kept up with the horse." Shen Wenchong said.
"So you choose to come to the rescue, not sent by the guards?"
Having said that, Lin Chi’s voice suddenly fell:
Shen Wenchong, you were cheated by them.

"Less master, how can you say this?" Shen Wenchong raised his eyebrows confusedly.
"The so-called robbers are hired by people in the city. The purpose is to kill me on the way. As long as the Lord dies, they can do whatever they want."
Hearing this, Shen Wen shook his hand, and the short knife in his hand almost fell to the ground, and his face was dull and shook his head: "This is impossible!"
In fact, Lin Chi was only in the mouth of the letter, but with a wealth of "nonsense" skills, he still made his speculation very convincing, so that Shen Wenchong began to shake:
"I can't... they don't have the courage to murder the Lord!" Shen Wenchong almost shouted.
"Believe me, Shen Wenchong." Lin Chi stared at his entourage: "The reason I tell you these things is because now I can only trust those who can trust me."
In Lin Chi’s opinion, even if other people are guilty of speculation, the old followers who have been recruited before, the possibility of rebellion is still extremely low.
Seeing that Shen Wenchong is still in a state of shock, Lin Chi turned to the two children and continued to "talk about cooperation matters" with them:
"What I am looking at is your latent ability, and the action that is not soft when you start it. How do you want to be my assassin? Cut the heads of those people you hate?"
"You are not a good person..." The child who had been hostile was muttering.
"Yes, I admit." Lin Chi nodded calmly: "But there are more villains than me who are in the city. My goal is to get rid of them, and then let the residents here live better. ""
