Chapter 292 Zi Yi's Setback
Chapter 292 Zi Yi's Setback
"Lay down your weapons or we will not kill you!"
"Kneel down!"
"Fight them!"
Upon seeing the outlines of those wandering soldiers, Zi'an shouted a warning.
Then came the shouts of the new tribesmen and goblins.
A dozen or so wandering soldiers immediately raised their weapons.
A long shadow swept across them.
"They're carrying spears!"
Where did the spear come from?
"Why did you get here so quickly?!"
"Run!"
Li Mosi couldn't see it very clearly either.
Judging from the map, some people wanted to climb onto the vehicle, some wanted to ride on the horse, and some simply chose a direction and ran away.
But Zi'an is here, do they still want to run away?
Don't even think about it.
Those people who were still by the carriage were immediately surrounded.
Zi'an first knocked out the few who had escaped, and then used a spear to knock out the men who were surrounded.
"Wow? These same few again?"
"What's going on?"
Zi'an led his people to tie up more than a dozen wandering soldiers into the shape of green caterpillars, and subconsciously blindfolded and gagged them.
To the newcomers, all they could see were a dozen or so dark figures.
Koko and the goblins both have darkvision.
They can see it clearly once they get close.
Just as they were tying people up, Li Moss found a tree stump.
After getting his hands covered in black ash from the tree stump, he finally managed to pick out the embers and rekindle them.
The warm glow of the fire broke the silence of the night.
"Wow! Master! Open the door quickly!"
"We're safe!"
"Someone started a fire?!"
"It's the elder!"
"And the leader's sister!"
"Are we safe?"
"What just happened?"
Squeaks, shouts, and inquiries rose from the fortress and from the town, followed by even more and more chaotic noises.
creak-
A heavy scraping sound stood out starkly among the other noises.
Li Mosi looked up and followed the sound to its source.
That's the direction the fortress is located in.
It sounded like a heavy door being opened.
The sound is still ringing out.
Li Mosi stopped looking.
He bent down and picked up a half-charred branch, using the flames in front of him to reignite the more charred tree stumps.
After he reignited a large area of tree stumps, Zi Yi led a group of people to him.
"My late master..."
My revered teacher has finally arrived!
Zi Yi walked up to Li Mosi and reached out to grab his left arm.
"Master, everyone is tied up."
Zi'an rushed to Li Mosi's side and looked down at Zi Yi.
In her opinion, Zi Yi's expression under the firelight was very strange.
But the light was weak now, and the surroundings were no longer pitch black, so she couldn't see clearly.
clap clap-
Why did you just throw me away?
Seeing a large group of people gathering, the saintess quickly ran behind Li Mosi.
As soon as she approached, she subconsciously questioned Zi'an, her tone clearly filled with complaint.
Snapped!
"Ugh!"
Zian slapped Hagi Saint hard on the back, and Hagi Saint let out a cry of pain.
The bear-beastmen are so rude!
"Bear Beastman Mu!"
Just as the saintess was about to utter a complaint, Li Mosi pinched her mouth shut.
"Mmm!"
Sensing that Hagi Saint was turning his head and trying to break free of the restraints, Li Mosi increased the force in her hands.
He looked at the people and tribesmen who were gathering and gestured with his chin to the spot where the tribesmen were gathered behind him.
"You go ahead."
"yes!"
"OK."
The new tribesmen and their followers walked toward the tribesmen who had just arrived. When the goblins saw that they had changed their target, they followed and stepped forward as well.
After the people around him dispersed, Li Mosi looked at Zi Yi, who was still holding his hand tightly.
"What happened on your end?"
"Ugh."
Zi Yi sighed, his face full of frustration.
At least from Li Mosi's perspective, it was written all over her face.
[Target Status: Frustrated, Minor, Confused]
"I don't know either……"
Zi Yi slowly began to recount what had happened that evening.
When the turmoil first broke out, he was entering the fortress to try out the heated kang bed!
Suddenly, I heard a commotion outside.
It sounded like a group of people were shouting something about Talisman coming back.
Then the people were in complete chaos.
The footsteps were so chaotic that it was impossible to hear anything clearly.
In the brief chaos, some ran in all directions, while others rushed into the fortress.
Just like birds in the forest that are startled and fly away!
Before Zi Yi could even understand what was happening, a group of people rushed in, closed the fortress gate, and bolted it shut.
When they saw him, they all rushed over to ask him what to do!
He had no idea what had happened.
What can we do?
The riots outside continued, and Ziyi subconsciously asked the group of leaders and clansmen what the situation was like outside.
As a result, everyone started talking at once, babbling and making no clear explanation.
Ziyi's mind was a complete mess at the time.
The clansmen said they couldn't see it.
The new people are even less able to see what's happening at night.
The people are even saying that Baron Talis has returned!
Isn't this a joke?
Zi Yi doesn't believe it!
If it really were Baron Taliss returning, wouldn't my late master have made preparations in advance?
Although this place and Lakeside Manor belong to two different baronies, a round trip can be completed in less than half a day!
Seeing that none of them were reliable, he could only climb onto the middle layer of the fortress wall that had not been demolished and look south from the top of the wall.
Then Zi Yi was stunned.
He realized he couldn't see anything!
Zi Yi then remembered that goblins in the dark could only see within ten steps of their immediate surroundings.
During the time he spent with his late teacher, he completely forgot about this.
Even in the darkest of nights, our master always managed to guide them to their way.
No one needs to look at the road at night; they only need to look at the Master.
Even after leaving his teacher, he could still see the road ahead.
Looking down from the fortress walls, he couldn't even see the ground!
Not only could Ziyi not see clearly, but none of the goblins could see clearly either.
This is beyond their capabilities.
The new tribesmen are even worse than goblins.
The people would be even more doomed.
Nothing can be seen, and even with poles and spear throwers, attacks cannot be launched.
Most people are in a panic and try to relieve their anxiety by talking, so they can't hear any noise.
Fortunately, none of the goblins smelled blood.
This at least shows that no one was injured.
Zi Yi could only count the number of people at that time.
He discovered that many of the younger members of the new tribe had dropped their spears in the chaos.
This is bad news.
The enemy has many weapons at their disposal.
Even though Zi Yi was very flustered, he knew he couldn't show it.
He chose to have his soldiers spread out on the top of the wall to prevent the enemy from launching an attack.
Everyone waited like that until Li Mosi arrived with her people.
When Zi Yi told Li Mosi about it, he only told her the general outline of the matter and did not express his thoughts.
But as he spoke, his voice gradually lowered.
If his voice hadn't been still clear, Zi'an would have thought he was about to cry.
Li Mosi felt that this was just a joke!
What are they all doing?
It made it look like a serious emergency like a tsunami.
Nothing happened.
There were no casualties or losses.
The people scattered in a panic, and the tribesmen were swept along, running around aimlessly. Even the wandering soldiers who had stirred up trouble were just wandering around aimlessly.
He was almost there when these guys started thinking about leaving.
Zi Yi, who had always had a smooth life, suffered a setback.
Li Mosi looked down at Zi Yi.
"Do you have any thoughts?"
"Cough, um."
Zi Yi cleared his throat and nodded vigorously twice.
"I was wrong, Master..."
