Chapter 4

  Under the hill of Huan San Yuan, his face sank like water, checking the personnel casualties.

  Actually, there were no casualties, except for Lin Shaoyus whereabouts being unknown, everyone else was safe and sound. However, the young city lords fiancée had been kidnapped by the mountain bandits, and with the city lords cruelty, Huang San yuan couldnt imagine what would happen when he returned to Heishi City.

  "Im asking you, do you want to die or live?" Huang San Yuan suddenly spoke up.

  There was a soldier who stepped forward and said: "Huang Guan Jia, we naturally want to live..."

  "Since you want to live, Ill ask you, how many of those mountain bandits were there in total today?"

  "...". Suddenly, a soldier had an epiphany: "Exactly one hundred people!"

  "One hundred people!" Huang San Yuan snorted, "Are you blind? The mountain bandits clearly had over three hundred people. We fought to the death and left a dozen or so corpses of the bandits behind, but unfortunately we still couldnt protect the young mistress, and Lin Shao Xias whereabouts are still unknown."

  Huang San Yuan suddenly drew out a short knife and cut his arm, ignoring the bleeding, shouting: "Follow me back to the city, summon the troops!"

  The soldiers all followed suit, inflicting wounds on themselves. They tore their intact leather armor and cut into the fleshy parts of their bodies. Although they gritted their teeth in pain, compared to the cruelty of the Blackstone City Lord, this was nothing.

  The crowd gradually dispersed, and a figure emerged from the bushes. It was Lin Shaoyu. Gazing up at the starry sky, Lin Shaoyu stood alone, letting out a long sigh.

  "I was wrong to consider myself a chivalrous guest, and yet Huang Guans family trusted me so much. In the end, it was because of me that Sus daughter was kidnapped by mountain bandits." Lin Shaoyu clenched his iron spear: "Huang Guans family, rest assured, I will definitely rescue Sus daughter for you, or else I would not be worthy of being a man!"

  ……

  Name: Xu Shenji (Notorious Military Advisor)

  Age: 49 years old

  Skills: None

  Hidden attribute: The helpless dog-headed military advisor.

  A fool may have a thousand thoughts, but there is always one that gets it right. This existence is even more foolish than the fool itself. In this chaotic world, those who are willing to accept him can only be explained by kindness.

  Cheng Daire looked at Xug Shenji with an expression of having nothing to live for. He had thought that being ordinary was the lowest level, but after seeing Xug Shenji, he realized that there was something even worse than ordinary - terrible. Especially this hidden attribute...

  Others are meticulous in their planning, but youre careless and sloppy. Whats the point of keeping someone like that around? Are they just a good luck charm or something?

  Xu Shenji said: "Eldest master, eldest master, whats wrong with you?"

  "Its nothing, probably just because my face is quite dark." Cheng Dalai rubbed his face: "Speak up, whats the big deal?"

  "The master, Ive already asked that woman, her name is Su Ying, shes the fiancée of the young lord of Blackstone City. If we kidnap her, itll be a disaster. You dont know how powerful Blackstone City is, our old chief died from an arrow wound during the battle with them. This time weve provoked them again, if their army comes, were all dead."

  Qin Man and Xue Linger also came over at this time. Cheng Dali asked: "Does anyone know the situation in Heishi City?"

  "I know." Qin Man said: "Hei Shi City is over a hundred miles away from Ha Ma Ridge, the city lords name is Han Hu Ju, this man is lustful and cruel, brutal and tyrannical, there are five thousand elite guards in the city."

  "Five thousand yuan for two, are you confident, Big Boss?" Xu Shenji voluntarily isolated himself and his daughter.

  "What can you do now? The person has been kidnapped. Unless you send the person back, say we were wrong and kneel down to apologize, see if he will forgive you." Cheng Da Lei.

  "Never mind, I didnt say anything."

  Cheng Dali had no hope for this military advisor, he looked at Qin Man with a gaze, perhaps this sturdy man had strategic talent.

  "Brother Qin, what do you think we should do?"

  "I think its better to take the initiative and attack rather than passively defend. We can kill our way to Blackstone City, kill Han Hu, and even if we dont succeed, at least well have a 70% chance of success."

  Cheng Daire and Xujinji stared at Cheng Daire in shock. The four of them went to actively attack five thousand people, with a seventy percent grasp...

  Got it, another zero-intelligence thug, looks like I have to take on the responsibility of planning and strategizing again.

  "In my opinion, we should gather our things and hurry on our way. If were late, it will be too late." Xu Shenji said.

  Xu Linger and Qin Man nodded: "Now it can only be done this way..."

  "Escape, absolutely not." Cheng Dairen said resolutely.

  "Why?" Xujin didnt understand why Cheng Dalai suddenly became so determined.

  Cheng Darui also wanted to escape, but Xu Shengjis hidden attribute was too frightening. This guys hidden attribute is "no good strategy", which means that every idea he comes up with is a wrong choice. If you listen to his escape plan, youll definitely suffer.

  "There are three reasons. Firstly, the person we kidnapped is the fiancée of the young master of Blackstone Castle. This person may be very important or not important at all. Does the young master of Blackstone Castle still need a wife? Therefore, its impossible for 5,000 people to come and attack, at most one or two hundred people will come. Secondly, we are over a hundred miles away from Blackstone Castle, coming and going will consume a lot of time, this time is our opportunity, taking advantage of the terrain, we can set up an ambush, its not necessarily impossible to hold out."

  "Hmm, received the task for the first time, defending the mountain stronghold. The difficulty of this task is too high, exceeding the current strength of the mountain stronghold."

  Even the system is giving prompts, it can be seen that the situation is severe.

  Since weve taken on the task, lets put our lives on the line and give it a good fight.

  "What about the third one?" Xu Shenji asked blankly, he didnt expect Cheng Dairen to come up with so many principles.

  "Third...” Cheng Da Lei looked around: “My father, the former head of Ha Ma Zhai was shot and killed in the siege of Hei Shi City. Qin Ge and Han Hu have a deep blood feud. If this revenge is not avenged, how can we stand on this earth? So this time, if we can defend it, we must defend it, even if we cant defend it, we still have to defend it.”

  "Alright!" Qin Man heavily slapped the table: "Eldest master, from now on, Qins life is yours!"

  Xu Shenji was not as excited as Qin Man, and he didnt understand what it meant to guard something that couldnt be guarded. After thinking for a moment, Xu Shenji asked: "From Hei Shi City to here, there are two roads, one is the official road, which can accommodate two horse-drawn carriages side by side, and the other is a narrow mountain path, in the middle of which we have to pass through a treacherous valley. If we want to ambush them, how does Big Brother know which road they will take?"

  "So its up to you, Military Advisor?" Cheng Dalai said with a meaningful smile: "Military Advisor, think carefully, they will take which road?"

  Xu Shenji furrowed his brow, mobilizing the few, almost unused brain cells he had, and finally declared categorically: "It must be from the official path!"

  Cheng Dalai burst out laughing: "I already know which road they took."

  Xu Shenji was even more perplexed, he himself didnt have a grasp on it, why did Cheng Dali trust him so much.

  "According to Master Xu Jun, can we get through this crisis?"

  Xu Shenji let out a long sigh: "I wont deceive you, Master. I have no hope."

  "I didnt have confidence at first." Cheng Dalai patted Xu Shenjis shoulder: "But now, theres a 50% chance."

  Its just a toilet paper, and even underwear has its use. Cheng Dalai deeply understands the truth of this sentence. Who says Xu Shenji is useless? He is a super weapon for eliminating incorrect options! From now on, whenever I have a grudge against someone, Ill send Xu Shenji over. With his schemes, its guaranteed that soon enough, the other party will be ruined, their family broken and scattered.

  Thinking of this, Cheng Dairen suddenly felt refreshed and clear-headed. He whistled a tune as he walked towards his own room.

  Its time to meet your future wife.
