Monk Daoyan frowned, watching another person's heart being dug out, his thoughts racing in his mind.

Obviously, these people were taken up the mountain to serve as sacrifices to Mahakara. Such bloody and barbaric sacrifices were in line with the habits of the Meng Yuan Dynasty.

Zhu Di felt anxious when he saw it. He didn't want to wait until his heart was placed under the statue, and he tried hard with his hands, but to no avail.

The binding effect of this hemp rope is quite good. Although Zhu Di is brave and brave, he is not a god after all and cannot break free of the binding rope.

Seeing more and more people being taken away for sacrifice, the situation has reached an extremely urgent time.

"Is it possible that I have to stay here today?"

Zhu Di never expected that he would not die on a dangerous battlefield, but would lose his life in this deep mountain.

When the bandit's hand grabbed Zhu Di's shoulder, he felt a deep sense of fear. He glared at the bandit with wide eyes and his face turned red. He had obviously tried his best.

The bandit was so stared at that his heart trembled, and the strength in his hands suddenly became much weaker. He still felt incredible that he was actually frightened by a prisoner.

Just when he was about to grab Zhu Di again, an angry shout suddenly came from beside him. The sound was so loud that the surrounding flames shook.

Zhu Di turned his head and saw the angry shouts from Monk Daoyan. At some point, he had broken free from the rope that bound him, and his hands were dancing randomly, like a madman.

What was going on at the same time as the movements was Monk Daoyan's increasingly frantic and strange voice. It was an ancient script, not like Mongolian.

Zhu Di thought for a moment and realized that this should be Sanskrit!

The people around him were all startled by Monk Daoyan's performance. They were too frightened to step forward and watched from a distance.

In their eyes, the old monk with triangular eyes looked like a demon from hell. He didn't know what he was talking about. His frantic movements looked no different from those of a sacrifice.

Monk Dao Yan muttered for a while, his eyes widened angrily, he stared at the two chief priests fiercely, and said in a cold voice: "Whose subordinates are you?"

This time Zhu Di heard that Daoyan spoke Mongolian, and it was quite pure. He obviously spent a lot of time learning it.

He was curious about when the old monk learned Mongolian and why he never mentioned it.

But when he thought of the year when monk Dao Yan was born, Zhu Di could understand that with Dao Yan's intelligence, it was not difficult to learn Mongolian.

As soon as Monk Daoyan spoke, the chief priest who was still confused immediately knelt down. They couldn't understand Sanskrit, but they still understood some Mongolian.

Compared with his poor Mongolian, what Daoyan said made them feel extremely frightened. This was clearly the purest Mongolian, which was much better than them.

As soon as the chief priest knelt down, other people who didn't know why also knelt down. Obviously, the leaders of these people were the two godly chief priests in front of them.

After a conversation in Mongolian, Zhu Di didn't understand a word and really didn't know what they were talking about.

But looking at the fearful looks of the two chief priests, it was obvious that Dao Yan had an absolute advantage among them, and the big stone in Zhu Di's heart finally fell.

Soon, Dao Yan pointed at Zhu Di and started chattering. Zhu Di guessed that he wanted to loosen himself.

Sure enough, soon the bandits came forward and respectfully untied the rope tied to Zhu Di.

As for the sacrifice, it was not over yet. In order not to arouse the suspicion of others, Daoyan did not care about the life and death of others.

After entering the room, Daoyan wiped the sweat from his face tiredly. The random movements just now really consumed him a lot.

Zhu Di was already full of doubts. Because he couldn't understand their conversation, he was still a little confused. After he was safe, he couldn't help but asked in a low voice: "Old monk, you are amazing. How did you do it?"

"Mahakara is one of the Buddhist protector gods, and I know the scriptures. But I didn't expect that the two chief priests couldn't understand Sanskrit. They were really talking nonsense."

Dao Yan took a breath and continued: "I know a little Mongolian, which can ensure smooth communication and can be used to coax them. It is more than enough. I just had a conversation with the two chief priests and I got a lot of news. It is not a bad trip." Void."

"what news?"

"Does the Taoist priest know about Hu Yuan's archers?"

"Archers!"

Zhu Di's eyes widened. He had been following his father-in-law Xu Da all year round, so he naturally knew something about Hu Yuan's archers.

The so-called arrow soldiers are the communication system and command system created by Genghis Khan. The full name is "arrow-like messengers"!

The vast territory of the Mongolian and Yuan Dynasties can be said to be the largest in history. Faced with such a vast territory, in order to facilitate the transmission of information, Genghis Khan established the archery system to transmit information and speed up exchanges.

The Archers are not only responsible for conveying orders, but are also the most powerful spy agency under Genghis Khan.

Before Genghis Khan collected gold, he made full use of his archers to extensively collect political, military, economic and geographical information of the Jin Kingdom. These archers disguised themselves as envoys, businessmen, and officials and continued to operate in the Jin Kingdom. Top secret information.

When attacking the Song Dynasty, archery soldiers still played an important role, "detecting military intelligence and taking advantage of chaos," and constantly obtained intelligence to ensure the victory of the war.

In order to conquer the West, Genghis Khan sent a large number of archers to Central Asia as merchants to launch large-scale expeditions.

During the period of Kublai Khan, the founder of the Yuan Dynasty, archers played an increasingly important role. They were used in military incidents such as the Yuan army's attack on Wen Tianxiang, the famous Prime Minister of the Southern Song Dynasty, the rebellion against the Southern Song general Hong Dutong, and the subsequent decoy of the Red Turban Army. Success was achieved only after the archers provided accurate and reliable intelligence.

After the Yuan Dynasty took control of the Central Plains and unified the world, the archers who originally played an important role in military warfare did not disappear with the passage of time in the torrent of history. Instead, they played an important role in the battles between powerful ministers.

This organization, founded by Genghis Khan, occupies a very important position in the history of the Yuan Dynasty. Its horror is unimaginable, and it can be said that everyone from top to bottom has its eyes and ears.

During the Ming Army's Northern Expedition, these elusive archers caused the court a lot of suffering and killed many people.

With the defeat of Beiyuan and the end of the Battle of Yuerhai, the Archery Soldiers finally withdrew from the court's sight, but they were not completely eliminated, but became hidden and difficult to find.

Just like those remnants of the Hu Yuan Dynasty, they hide in the world and usually remain invisible, but as long as they feel the time is right, they will rise up and make trouble.

Situations like this happen from time to time, and rebellions that often occur in various places are often related to the remnants of Hu Yuan.

Now, Zhu Di was quite surprised when he heard the name Archer Soldier again. He knew the destructive power of the Archer Soldier, so he hurriedly asked: "Old monk, can you tell me their specific action plan?"
