Chapter 7: Take a gamble and go all in in the bull ring!
[Detected that the host completed a suggestion. 】
[Ding! Reminder to the host, this task is a rating task, do you want to complete it immediately? ]
In the silent night, Lin Zhongyun, who was walking towards the North Courtyard with five refugees, suddenly heard the cold voice of the system.
This time, Lin Zhongyun did not answer directly, but became a little hesitant.
What was accomplished was a proposal to win over refugees, not a proposal to gain popularity among them.
It can be seen from this that if you want to gain reputation among the refugees, you must at least wait until you get some food.
And this is exactly the reason why Lin Zhongyun hesitated!
If you complete it now, the reward will probably still be a bronze treasure chest. Since this bronze treasure chest is the lowest level reward, it will definitely not be a very good reward.
It would be nice if my luck was good enough to give me a useful skill.
But what if it’s useless?
Isn't this a wasted opportunity?
Moreover, the next task for Lin Zhongyun is to gain reputation among refugees. Wouldn't it be easier to win over people when he has the reputation?
So, Lin Zhongyun decided to take a gamble!
Anyway, whether or not I acquire new skills now has no impact on my plans.
Thinking of this, Lin Zhongyun immediately made a decision and replied secretly in his heart: "Not completed!"
As soon as the words fell, a cold voice sounded instantly.
[Selection successful, current task progress: 5/? ? ? ]
[Ding! Remind the host that this task can be completed at any time, and the reward rating will be issued according to the host's completion degree. ]
Lin Zhongyun ignored the reminder and quickly led the five refugees to the north courtyard.
"Come with me!"
Lin Zhongyun lowered his voice and turned back to explain.
Immediately, in front of the five people, he quickly stepped back and leaped forward, then flipped over the wall and jumped down.
He had to demonstrate this.
It’s not that these refugees don’t even know how to climb over the wall, but they don’t dare to do so. After all, everyone is afraid of death.
As the leader, Lin Zhongyun must set an example.
Sure enough, as soon as he landed, Lin Zhongyun did not see anyone jumping over with him. Instead, after waiting for a while, he seemed to see that there was no sound.
The five refugees then jumped down one after another.
"Humph!" Lin Zhongyun sneered secretly, but did not say much on the surface. He just said softly: "Follow me."
After saying that, he led a few people and slowly walked towards Li Zhongwu's house.
"Big brother?"
As soon as Lin Zhongyun pushed the door, Li Zhongwu's voice immediately came from the room.
In an instant, Lin Zhongyun felt that the movements of the people behind him suddenly became chaotic!
"Don't panic!" Lin Zhongyun quickly reminded: "These are our own people."
"Brother, who are they?"
Li Zhongwu also came out of the room at this time. With the dim moonlight, he frowned and looked at the people behind Lin Zhongyun.
"Our own people." Lin Zhongyun waved his hand: "We need help."
Several people looked at each other warily, but did not say anything more.
Lin Zhongyun did not explain. He first stretched out his hand to push away the hand on his shoulder, then grabbed a kitchen knife and said to Li Zhongwu, "Zhongwu, go to the cowshed!" "Brother, there are people watching the cowshed!" Li Zhongwu raised his eyebrows and looked at the five refugees behind Lin Zhongyun with some hesitation, "Can they do it?"
He was not afraid, but he did not trust the refugees.
There was no way. In this era, although he was just a cowherd in a landlord's family, they also despised these refugees who could be eaten in exchange for their own children.
"Second brother!" Lin Zhongyun frowned and said directly: "After some time, we may become like them."
Li Zhongwu was silent for a moment and didn't say anything more.
And the five refugees never said anything from beginning to end. They had fallen to this point and were already in a desperate situation. Not to mention being looked down upon, they would do anything as long as they were given something to eat.
Seeing that no one said much, Lin Zhongyun looked at everyone seriously and told them his plan.
As for the plan, it’s also simple!
- Stud!
There was no other way. This was the only plan Lin Zhongyun could come up with now because they had no better choice.
There are many guards in the palace, so it is impossible to attack places like the granary.
Judging from the memory of his previous life, this granary can be said to be the most heavily guarded place in the palace.
On the contrary, there were not many guards in the cowshed.
The reason is very simple. Due to years of drought, not only the fields were lost, but also the livestock, especially cattle, sheep and horses that need to eat grass.
In addition, Mr. Wang has not been farming for the past two years, and now there are only five oxen left in the palace.
So naturally, the number of guards looking for someone to guard the sanctuary was reduced.
According to the memory of my previous life, there are usually only two guards guarding the cowshed now. Moreover, because the cowshed has a strong smell and is next to the north yard where servants live, it is not easy to attract attention.
That's why Lin Zhongyun decided to attack the cattle pen.
Upon hearing this, the five refugees said nothing, and Li Zhongwu agreed without further ado.
Then he took out the machete that he usually carried with him when he went out.
He originally wanted to let Lin Zhongyun take the machete, and he would take the kitchen knife. After all, he was stronger than Lin Zhongyun, so it would not be a problem for him to use the kitchen knife.
But after trying it once, Lin Zhongyun returned the machete to Li Zhongwu.
There was no way. Although the machete was definitely more lethal than a kitchen knife, he had mastered the kitchen knife and it felt like he could use it in a variety of ways.
As for the five refugees, there were naturally no extra knives for them, so they could only take a stone and
Afterwards, Lin Zhongyun emphasized to them again that they could make a sound no matter what, and as long as he went forward, they would rush forward and take care of the guards!
Then he led them to the cowshed.
Although no one paid attention to the North Courtyard, Lin Zhongyun still walked very carefully, trying his best to hide his figure in the dark.
Before long, the few of them reached the outside of the cowshed.
Different from the dark North Courtyard.
Two large torches were burning outside the cowshed. Two guards carrying official machetes were standing on the left and right of the door, leaning against the wall and snoring with their eyes closed.
Even through the clothes, Lin Zhongyun could faintly feel the muscles on their bodies.
For a moment, even he couldn't help but become nervous.
Lin Zhongyun quickly turned around and looked at the five refugees. Although he couldn't see the expressions on their faces, he immediately stretched out his hand and said in a low voice, "Don't be afraid!"
Seeing that no one made a sound.
Lin Zhongyun took a deep breath, then waved his hand, asking everyone to follow him closely, picked up the kitchen knife and walked directly towards the two guards.
