Volume 2: The Demonic World Chapter 557: Destroying the Bliss Pill
After confirming the matter, Lin Qianxing and Liu Shu started to go out and investigate together.
Lin Qianxing is even more agile than Liu Shu, and he can go freely in many places that Liu Shu dare not explore.
About half a month later, the two obtained the basic information of the Ji Le Wan production base by the river.
Inside Liu's house, Lin Qianxing unfolded the map he had drawn and said to Liu Shu, "There are three warehouses producing Bliss Pills in this workshop. There are about a hundred soldiers guarding one warehouse, so there are three hundred in three warehouses. Together with the workers producing Bliss Pills, there are at least eight hundred people in total. Moreover, they do not stop production day and night, but just change shifts. There are always people inside. The fire prevention in the warehouse is also very good, with auspicious jars everywhere. There are also three thousand light armored soldiers stationed nearby. Even if we light a fire, they will all come to put out the fire in a cup of tea, and they will not burn too much."
"Those corrupt officials deserve to die for producing so many bliss pills!" Liu Shu said coldly.
"It does take a large amount of money and food to support the army. Zhuo Tianhong has been recruiting soldiers and horses. I think he is planning to use this as capital to start a rebellion." Lin Qianxing speculated.
Zhuo Tianhong was the commander of Xuanzhou's three thousand light armored troops.
It was precisely because of his endorsement that the officials of Xuanzhou dared to get involved in the production and sale of the Bliss Pills.
"Then how do we get in? With so many people guarding, it would be impossible to sneak in. If we don't sneak in and fight head-on, we won't be their match, right?" Liu Shu said.
"There's nothing much to say about the more than 500 workers in charge of production. Without weapons, their combat effectiveness is almost equivalent to nothing." Lin Qianxing said, "We have to face only the 300 soldiers guarding there, or in other words, the 100 soldiers in one of the warehouses. The three warehouses are not particularly concentrated. As long as we move quickly, we can kill all the soldiers in one warehouse before the soldiers in the other two warehouses arrive. Even if the soldiers in the other warehouses find out about the situation, it is impossible for them to all come. In this way, we can defeat them one by one."
"Can you do it?" Liu Shu asked with some doubt.
She knows her own strength.
In a short period of time, she could only deal with a dozen or twenty soldiers at a time, and the rest would have to be left to Lin Qianxing.
She doubted whether Lin Qianxing could handle it.
"Of course I can do it. I haven't wasted any time in the past six months." Lin Qianxing said.
Liu Shu nodded without any doubt and immediately asked, "Okay, then when do we set off?"
Lin Qianxing glanced at the sky outside the window and said, "It was February 15th. There was a strong south wind that day."
Observing the weather is also an essential skill for a bodyguard.
When you go out, you have to plan your actions according to the weather in advance, otherwise if you encounter heavy rain or something, it will be really painful.
…
Time passed and soon it was February 15th.
Sure enough, a strong south wind blew that day just as Lin Qianxing had predicted.
Instead of taking action during the day, the two decided to wait until night.
At midnight, those who produce the Bliss Pills will change shifts.
That was when they were most tired.
Lin Qianxing and his team took the opportunity to go there and wait for the enemy to tire themselves out, so they could achieve twice the result with half the effort.
Late at night, at 15:30.
Lin Qianxing and Liu Shu put on their night clothes and came to the workshop by the river where the Bliss Pills were produced.
The two of them communicated with each other using simple gestures, and walked towards a warehouse one after the other.
They were moving very fast and had no intention of hiding, so they were soon discovered by soldiers.
"Someone!" a soldier said.
Squeaky, squeaky~!
Liu Shu held a long-handled scimitar in her hand, exhaled mist from her mouth, and used all her strength to activate her internal breathing techniques, activating her blood and qi. A large amount of oxygen was supplied to her entire body through her lungs. In the blink of an eye, she had passed by the soldier and rushed towards the second soldier.
A bloody mark appeared on the soldier's neck. His body moved, and then blood gushed out and he fell to the ground.
She moved easily among the numerous guarding soldiers, and soon only corpses were left on the ground.
On the other hand, Lin Qianxing's actions seemed much more elegant.
The pockets in his sleeves were full of flying knives. He raised his hands and shook them, and a flying knife flew out, capable of taking a person's life at a distance of dozens of meters.
Often, the soldiers were dead before they even saw him.
Lin Qianxing prepared a total of fifty throwing knives, but he used them all up.
For the last few people left, he drew out the iron sword from his back, rushed out quickly, and killed them all with one sword.
When Lin Qianxing struck his last sword, he just happened to meet Liu Shu.
Looking at the corpses all over the ground, Liu Shu was shocked. She really didn't expect that Lin Qianxing had such strength.
Out of the one hundred guards, she killed more than twenty at most, and the rest were all killed by Lin Qianxing, and his speed was no slower than hers.
Lin Qianxing saw soldiers holding torches coming to check from a distance, so he said, "You go and light the fire, and I'll stop the people coming."
"Okay." Liu Shu nodded.
Immediately, Liu Shu entered the warehouse where the Bliss Pills were produced.
There, a large number of workers are turning all the materials into bliss pills according to the established division of labor.
The leader among them had already discovered that there was an intruder outside. At this time, the workers inside were holding tools and looking at Liu Shu who came in with trepidation.
After all, Lin Qianxing and Liu Shu's fighting power was so exaggerated that they could not even think of resisting.
Liu Shu lowered her voice and said in a low voice: "I am Qingli, I believe you know my name. The guards outside have been killed by me and another hero. I hope you will not put up any unnecessary resistance."
"Don't dare!" said the leader, "Lady, you can do whatever you want. We have no choice but to produce this evil thing here."
"Since we have no choice, have someone move all those things together for me..." Liu Shu ordered.
Just as Liu Shu was ordering the workers to move the production materials and goods of Ji Le Wan, Lin Qianxing, who was outside, also waited for the soldiers to arrive.
When they arrived, they saw Lin Qianxing standing among corpses with a sword.
The leader was a little frightened when he saw this scene, and immediately ordered: "Go, arrest him."
He dared to go down after being ordered, but after seeing this scene, he himself did not dare to go up first.
Lin Qianxing's palm holding the sword slightly tightened, and all the muscles in his body instantly tensed from a relaxed state.
The next moment, he rushed out.
Over the past six months, his strength has made great progress.
Now, facing these ordinary people again, as long as not all of them use long-range weapons, one or two hundred people are not a problem at all.
In fact, it is impossible for them to have so many long-range weapons.
Arrows and crossbows cost more than the soldiers themselves.
If you are not the elite among the elites, where would you get the bows and crossbows to use?
Puff puff puff~!
Lin Qianxing moved his body swiftly, dodging the attacks of these soldiers, and accurately slashed their throats with the sword in his hand, with just the right amount of force, just enough to be lethal, and each sword was so precise.
In his eyes, the soldiers' movements were like slow motion slowed down to half the speed. With his current physical condition, it was extremely easy for him to dodge.
If the situation is really unavoidable, Lin Qianxing can use the sword in his hand to cut the soldier's tendons, making him unable to hold the weapon anymore.
In a short time, Lin Qianxing had killed more than twenty people.
Lin Qianxing casually swung his sword in a flower pattern, scaring the remaining soldiers so much that they retreated and dared not move forward.
He felt deeply moved that when faced with overwhelming strength, the sword was indeed more useful.
If he were using the long sword he had used before, it would definitely not be so easy.
After all, the knife was too heavy, and the method used was to overwhelm the opponent by force.
There aren't many tricks to play.
It is relatively easy to fight against masters, but it is a bit difficult to use it to chop melons and vegetables.
Boom~whoosh whoosh~boom boom boom!
Suddenly, a bright light rose up behind Lin Qianxing, and with the blessing of the south wind, it rose rapidly, and the flames went straight into the sky.
A large number of workers in the warehouse fled out and dispersed .
Liu Shu ran out of the warehouse and quickly came to Lin Qianxing. She looked at the soldiers who were confronting Lin Qianxing with a puzzled expression .
"Have you dealt with it?" Lin Qianxing asked.
"Almost." Liu Shu said.
"Then let's go to the next place." Lin Qianxing said.
Immediately, Lin Qianxing walked towards the soldiers.
Every time Lin Qianxing took a step forward, they took a step back, and no one dared to stop him.
Before, they couldn't stop Lin Qianxing alone, and now there were two of them, they didn't dare to stop him at all.
Soon, Lin Qianxing and Liu Shu arrived at the second warehouse, easily tore through the defense, and lit a fire.
He then did the same thing again and set fire to the third warehouse.
Driven by the strong wind, the flames burned quickly and the surroundings were as bright as day.
Lin Qianxing and Liu Shu found a high place and watched the scene quietly.
The remaining soldiers also seemed very helpless at this time. Such a big fire could not be put out at all.
Soon after, bright lights were seen approaching from a distance. They were the troops stationed nearby.
When they arrived on horseback, they ordered a large number of soldiers to start putting out the fire.
There were quite a lot of these people, and under their control, the fire was actually showing signs of weakening.
Lin Qianxing frowned and said to Liu Shu, "I'll go for a walk."
Liu Shu heard the sound and wanted to stop it, but in the end she said, "Be careful."
Lin Qianxing nodded and quickly rushed towards the soldiers who were putting out the fire.
His target was clear: the person who gave the order.
Catch the leader first.
As long as that man is killed, there will be no one to put out the fire.
"There's someone here!!" A soldier discovered Lin Qianxing's presence and spoke out immediately.
"Stop him!" said the officer on horseback who was commanding.
After receiving the order, the soldiers rushed forward and tried to stop Lin Qianxing.
However, Lin Qianxing's speed was beyond their imagination.
Lin Qianxing just shook his body slightly to avoid their attacks, and swung the sword in his hand to take their lives.
The officer saw that the situation was not good and immediately rode away on his horse.
Squeaky, squeaky~!
The mist from Lin Qianxing's mouth dissipated, and the speed suddenly increased greatly.
Then he suddenly leaped up, flying to a height of four or five meters, and jumped nearly twenty meters away.
While in the air, Lin Qianxing suddenly drew his sword.
Phew~!
A head was chopped off by Lin Qianxing, but the horse still moved forward, blood spurted several feet high and spilled all over the ground.
