"Sir, are we just going to let these soldiers and horses from Yunzhong County surround us?"
Wei Qiu followed Lin Muyu into the Chinese army's tent, and said with anger on his face: "We adopted the tactic of siege but not attack to surround Fire Ax Mountain, but now we are also surrounded, Yinshan City The food and water cannot be brought in at all.
Now we are in the same quagmire as the Chivalrous Mansion on Fire Ax Mountain.
We must make a decision, sir."
Lin Muyu suddenly turned around, with murderous intent in his eyes, and said: "Wei Qiu, think about it, why people like Bai Lao protect the Knight's Mansion like this?"
"this" Wei Qiu was startled and asked cautiously: "Don't you suspect that Governor Hu Tiening of Cangnan Province is also in complete collusion with the Knight's Mansion?"
"It's not necessarily collusion, but there is definitely a relationship of interest."
Lin Muyu raised his head and sighed, and said: "If there were no huge interests, Hu Tiening would not have the need to mobilize troops like this, and would not even hesitate to break up with us, the imperial army.
This can only show that they want to protect Huo Ax Mountain, the knights of Huo Ax Mountain."
There are some secrets hidden in the museum that he wants us to know.”
Wei Qiu suddenly realized: "Sir, if this is the case, we must take action."
"Um."
Lin Muyu nodded and asked: "How much food and grass do we have left?"
"It can last for two days at most, and the water is no longer enough."
"Dig more than a dozen wells on the spot.
Our terrain is low and the surroundings are green hills except for Fire Ax Mountain.
It is not difficult to dig out water."
"yes" "besides" "Is there anything else, sir?"
Wei Qiu turned around and looked at him.
"Help me find a set of clothes for the knights in the knight's guild.
I am going to explore Fire Ax Mountain at night tonight to see what kind of secrets are hidden in this mountain to allow Hu Tiening to do this."
"Sir, I'm afraid you are taking risks alone."
"No need to persuade me, I have already made up my mind."
"Yes, my lord" Late at night, the cold wind howled on Fire Ax Mountain.
"rustle" Amidst a rustling sound, gourd vines seeped out from the rock formations.
Lin Muyu clung to a gourd vine and used the characteristics of martial arts to climb on the cliff in the north of Fire Ax Mountain.
This cliff was not ordinary steep.
It is a completely vertical natural barrier, so the rangers on Fire Ax Mountain may not guard this place.
After all, ordinary people cannot climb up here at all.
The night was freezing, Lin Muyu's sword-shaped eyebrows were stained with a touch of frost, but there was a smile in his eyes under the eyebrows.
He was dressed in a knight's attire, and the medal he wore was also green.
At this time, he was already in the military.
Hanging a hundred meters in the air, leaning on the gourd vine step by step Climbing up, fortunately, the gourd vine grew from the heart and fit perfectly with his body, so there was no need to worry that the thorns on the gourd vine would sting him.
Even when Lin Muyu grasped the gourd vine with his palm, the surrounding thorns quickly It dissipated and became invisible, looking very mysterious.
"brush" He jumped lightly and landed on the fiery red rock.
The Dragon Spirit Sword was wrapped in black cloth and fell behind him.
Lin Muyu was very familiar with the Knight's Mansion, so he had no worries.
He strode over and was not far away.
At this place, more than a dozen stragglers were guarding the perimeter of Beishan.
"Who is it?"
One of the Sanxia hurriedly raised his long bow.
Lin Muyu hurriedly raised her palms and said with a smile: "Don't draw the bow, brother, I have a stomachache and I am too embarrassed to deal with it on top, so I went to the edge of the cliff to deal with it, my own family."
Under the moonlight, when the San Xia saw his attire, he couldn't help laughing and said: "Damn, I'm scared.
You're a bit unfamiliar, kid.
You're new here."

"Yeah, I've only been here for less than a month."
"No wonder you look familiar.
Which team are you from?"
This question made Lin Muyu stunned.
Fortunately, he was more alert and said with a smile: "I was brought up the mountain by Master Luoshan Tiezun, and now I am following him as a personal guard."
There are at least a hundred Iron Masters on this mountain, and the personnel change frequently.
These rangers may not all know each other, so this lie is very appropriate.
"Oh, it turns out it's the brother that Master Tie Zun brought up the mountain.
Come on, come on, do you want to drink some wine to warm yourself up?"
"Thank you all, brothers, but I have to go back right away.
Master Tie Zun was injured when he went down the mountain to attack today, and I have to take care of him."
"Okay, thank you for your hard work, brother."
After successfully passing the customs, Lin Muyu walked along the mountains and forests, but saw that all the rangers along the way were as listless as wilted eggplants.
It seemed that the two major blows of water shortage and failed attack had almost completely destroyed their morale.
It's a pity that Hu Tiening has new news, otherwise Gentian Camp would definitely be able to conquer Fire Ax Mountain with minimal losses within three days.
At this moment, a group of stragglers holding torches suddenly appeared in front of them, escorting about 20 people who looked like civilians through the corridor and headed straight to the other side of the cliff.
One of them raised his whip and looked unruly.
He yelled and cursed: "Go faster, mother.
If you miss today's construction date, I'll skin you if I don't."
Each of these peasants carried shovels on their shoulders, and they looked sallow and thin.
Lin Muyu couldn't help but frown, and without thinking too much, he quietly followed up and became a member of Sanxia, escorting the civilian husband together.
He actually continued to work in the middle of the night.
There must be some hidden secret in such a rush.
Sure enough, after rounding a small mountain peak, the lights were brightly lit in front.
About 100 Sanxia men holding swords and acting as guards stood in front of a cave entrance, which extended into the depths of Fire Ax Mountain.
There was a faint "Ding" sound coming from inside.
With the sound of "ding, dong, dong, dong, dong, dong, dong, dong, dong, dong, dong, dong", Lin Muyu immediately concluded that this was a gold mine.
Fire Ax Mountain is actually a huge gold mine.
This is too shocking.
"Go down" Pushing the civilians one by one into the mine, Lin Muyu followed a group of Sanxia and saw that the mine was full of torches and Sanxia guards.
The entire Fire Ax Mountain seemed to be about to be hollowed out.
The rocks inside the mine were The walls are densely packed with miners clinging to them, using hammers, shovels and other tools to knock the minerals out of the mountain.
Under the torch, the color of gold can be faintly seen in some ores.
Although they are not pure, they are indeed gold mines.
Lin Muyu couldn't help but take a deep breath.
At this moment, a bearded Sanxia looked at him and asked with a smile: "Little brother, look at your appearance, you are new here, right?"
"Yeah, what do you call this big brother?"
"Just call me Daniel."
"Ha, Brother Daniu, you are also responsible for guarding the mine today."
"Yes."
Da Niu nodded, looking at the carts of gold mines below with greed in his eyes, and said: "If all these golds are turned into gold coins, hehe, each of us can marry a daughter-in-law of seven or eight bedrooms.
"My son" Lin Muyu's heart sank, and she said with a smile: "Does Brother Daniu know that these gold mines are used to mint coins?"
"nature."
Da Niu waved his arm and said with a smile: "Otherwise, why do you think that the old fox Hu Tiening in Wugu City sent troops to reinforce us when Fire Ax Mountain was besieged?"
Lin Muyu was relieved and said: "I'm new here and I don't understand these rules.

Could it be that Hu Tiening wanted these gold mines and minted coins privately?"
"Yes, otherwise what do you think?"
Daniel said with great interest: "Since ancient times, people have died for wealth and birds have died for food."
"But as far as I know, there is an article of imperial law that prohibits officials from minting coins privately," Lin Muyu said hypocritically.
Daniel touched his nose and said, "Do you think that old fox Hu Tiening is a vegetarian?
This Fire Ax Mountain has been mined for nearly a year, and the number of gold coins produced alone is more than 10 million.
Hey now Hu Tiening is extremely rich, otherwise he would not be able to purchase maids, war horses, and weapons on a large scale."
"He even dares to purchase war horses and weapons."
Lin Muyu said with a surprised smile: "This Hu Tiening is really bold."
Daniel smiled and said: "That's natural.
The total number of troops in Cangnan Province is nearly 120,000, and the most elite among them is the 17,000-strong Flying Cavalry Battalion commanded by General Long Qianlin under Hu Tiening.
It is said that the war horses of this flying cavalry camp are all excellent horses from the Western Regions, and the weapons are all forged by famous craftsmen.
They are all dark iron weapons.
Looking at the entire empire, no army can be compared to them in sophistication."
Lin Muyu smiled secretly, I'm afraid his own Gendan camp can compete with it.
It's just that Hu Tiening is really bold.
He actually dares to collude with the Chivalrous Mansion to mine gold mines on Fire Ax Mountain.
He is so bold.
Lin Muyu sighed deeply and said, "I don't know how many gold coins we can get.
Now it costs a lot to marry a wife in the countryside."
Daniel smiled: "Don't worry, by the way, what's your boy's name?"
"Lin Zhi."
Da Niu immediately patted Lin Muyu on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Brother Lin Zhi, the Great Youyi has promised us a long time ago that we will move after mining the gold mines in Huoxu Mountain.
Each brother will be paid at least one thousand gold coins. , Hey, girls in the countryside are cheap now, you can marry one for 100 gold coins.
You are so young and strong, you have no problem marrying a fifth-room wife, hahaha."
Lin Muyu smiled shyly: "Brother Daniu is joking, I'm so inexperienced."
Daniel: "" At this moment, an excited voice suddenly came from the depths of the mine: "We've dug it, we've dug it."
"What did you dig up?"
Lin Muyu was stunned.
The voice from deep responded immediately, laughing and saying: "Lord Jin Zun, we have dug up a white diamond.
Hurry up and tell the Great Youyi that we have finally dug up a white diamond."
Lin Muyu was stunned, and immediately went down the rope with a group of stragglers.
With the help of the light, he found a group of miners gathered there.
At the bottom of the mine, after pieces of hard stone were cut away, long, ice-crystal-like shapes appeared.
The cone-shaped crystal appears in the eyes, which is the legendary white diamond.
What is the difference between white diamonds and diamonds?
People in this world do not admire diamonds, but they seem to admire white diamonds.
What are the uses of these crystals with white luster?
