"General, according to rumors, the Gongshu family's ancestral land is filled with traps. If no one led them in, it would be extremely dangerous and they might suffer heavy losses.”
The deputy general beside him quickly reminded him.
"I know."
Meng Tian nodded. She glanced at the sheepskin map in her hand and then looked at the steep mountain in front of her. Her eyes flashed with curiosity and anticipation.
He was just passing by.
He had heard that the Gongshu family's domineering mechanism techniques were powerful and terrifying.
With this mentality, Meng Tian thought about paying a visit during her mission.
He took a look.
The iron cavalry led by Meng Tian still had some blood stains on their armor that had not been washed clean. Clearly, they had just experienced a battle not long ago.
"Bronze opened his mouth to ask Gongshu?"
"Is the Gongshu family's trap technique as powerful as the rumors say? Let me wait and see!"
Meng Tian thought.
Immediately.
He waved his hand and shouted loudly,"Reorganize the entire army and wait for orders!"”
The three thousand cavalry were imposing. This mountain probably couldn't accommodate so many people.
If he wanted to enter the mountain to meet the Gongshu family...
Therefore, they had to control the number of people.
"General, let this subordinate follow you.”
The two deputy generals under him were respectful.
"Correct!"
Meng Tian nodded and continued," Send a signal slightly so that the Gongshu family will know that we are here. From there, they will lead us into the Gongshu family's ancestral land.”
He did not dare to barge in recklessly.
Just as his subordinate had said.
Gongshu's ancestral land was full of traps.
If one easily barged in, they would be injured or killed!
It was even more likely to cause hostility between them!
Meng Tian did not come here to increase the enemies of the empire.
"Yes, General."
The deputy nodded and instructed his subordinates.
"Wait a minute. It seems like someone is coming out from inside.”
Suddenly, Meng Tian raised her eyebrows and blurted out.
He rode his warhorse to the front, jumped off the horse's back, and landed steadily.
He was clad in armor and looked valiant and majestic!
Coupled with Meng Tian's burly body, she seemed to be very powerful and gave off a heavy sense of oppression.
"Young friend, are you a disciple of the Gongshu family?”
Meng Tian's eyes flashed as she looked at the young man in front of her and asked.
It was a young man dressed in white. He was very young, and it could be seen from his appearance that he was no more than twenty years old. However, his entire body revealed the aura of an old man. His white clothes were spotless.
"What an elegant young master!"
Meng Tian thought to herself.
He was certain!
This person must have an extraordinary status in the Gongshu family!
Ordinary Gongshu family disciples could not have such an aura!
Not to mention…
Even when facing a great general like him, she was still calm.
This temperament was worthy of Meng Tian's praise.
Under the sunlight.
The young man in white raised his head, revealing his handsome facial features. He had a somewhat scholarly and thin temperament, and his eyes were as bright as the stars.
This person was Gongshu Lin, who had stepped out of the Gongshu family's ancestral land!
"Iron cavalry?"
While Meng Tian was sizing them up, Gongshu Lin was also sizing them up.
Three thousand cavalry stood in an orderly manner, looking majestic!
The aura of iron and blood leaked out, and even the temperature of the air seemed to have become somewhat cold.
When a person's hands were stained with blood, their body would be stained with some aura. The aura would increase, and anyone standing beside them would feel a cold and awe-inspiring aura.
This was known as killing intent!
"Little friend, I am Meng Tian. May I know your name?”
Meng Tian cupped her fists.
"Meng Tian…"
Gongshu Lin's eyes flashed, and his expression changed slightly.
He did not expect this!
Stepping out of the mountain gate, he actually bumped into Meng Tian, this famous Great General!
"I am a commoner, Gongshu Lin!”
The corners of Gongshu Lin's mouth curled up slightly.
Why did Meng Tian come?
Invite Gongshu Chou out of the mountain?
This was reasonable!
"Young friend, you're indeed a member of the Gongshu family.”
Meng Tian's eyes lit up. She smiled brightly and said," I came from Shangjun to the south to kill enemies. I was lucky enough to pass by the Gongshu family's ancestral land, so I wanted to pay you a visit. I wonder if my young friend can lead the way for us?”
"General Meng Tian's visit has brought light to the Gongshu family. There's naturally no reason to reject him.”
Gongshu Lin laughed loudly.
"Then I'll have to trouble young friend to lead the way."
"General, please follow me."
Gongshu Lin turned around, looked back at the steep mountain in front of him, and stepped forward.
Immediately after.
Meng Tian brought along two deputies to follow them. The two deputies jumped off their horses and walked on foot like Meng Tian. They did not bring too many troops to the mountain gate.
"I heard that the Gongshu family's ancestral land has traps all over the entire mountain range. I'm very curious. Is the rumor true? Little friend, can you enlighten us?"
On the way, Meng Tian asked curiously.
Hearing this, Gongshu Lin glanced at a tree on his left, and his eyes flashed."General Meng Tian, you can try touching that tree and you will know the answer to your question.”
"Oh?"
Meng Tian was interested.
He waved at the deputy general beside him, and the deputy general handed him an arrow.
Pull the bow and shoot!
The arrow accurately pierced through the tree trunk.
The arrow shook the entire tree, and the entire ground trembled slightly. Then, the ground split open, and a large number of sharp lines fell from the sky, enveloping the ground within a five-meter radius.
These white spiderweb-like lines were all covered in poison. Anyone who touched them would die!
In just a moment.
The split ground healed, and the white lines that were stained with poison were pulled up on the branches again. They were hidden in the lush leaves and could not be detected.
"General Meng Tian, do you have an answer in your heart?”
Gongshu Lin said with a smile," This mountain has been improved for more than 300 years. The interior has long been hollowed out and turned into gears that are spinning. Countless mechanisms surrounded the entire mountain range.”
"This is also to prevent people from targeting the Gongshu family and setting up some small traps. It's not presentable and will be a joke to General Meng Tian.”
Seeing this.
" You're right!" Meng Tian hurriedly said," In our eyes, such methods are already unfathomable!"”
Beside him, the two deputy generals felt their limbs turn cold. They looked at the endless mountain range in front of them and felt their scalps go numb, as if they could feel the deep malice brought by the mountain range.
"So, next, I will have to ask General Meng Tian to follow my footsteps closely. Otherwise, if you activate the mechanism, even I will find it difficult to save your life.”
After saying that, Gongshu Lin continued to walk deeper into the mountain range.
Along the way.
Seeing the countless traps, Meng Tian was amazed. At the same time, her back was drenched in cold sweat. She looked at Gongshu Lin's back again with respect.
He couldn't help it.
Meng Tian could not help but ask," Young friend, you have such extraordinary attainments in mechanisms at such a young age. Presumably, little friend's status in the Gongshu family is quite high, right?”
