They couldn’t think too far ahead and could only focus on what they saw now.
As Lin Suisui looked at the happy-go-lucky Gu Han, she suddenly felt that he was indeed quite suitable.
“There will be shaman priests this time?” Lin Suisui turned around and asked Lu Ze, who was sitting beside her.
“Yes.” Lu Ze nodded affirmatively. To the northern barbarians, the shaman priest was even more powerful than the tribe leader.
According to Gu Han, they were unlucky this time. Coincidentally, An Duo, the shaman who was heading to the Imperial Court happened to be resting in Ivan’s tribe. When he heard this news, he naturally wanted to come over and take a look.
An Duo had always resented Mo Rigen over a small matter. Usually, he would come over and torture Mo Rigen’s tribe whenever he had the chance, so he definitely wouldn’t let go of such an opportunity this time.
“I heard that a doctor from the empire once stayed in Mo Rigen’s tribe for a period of time previously. Later on, he was executed by An Duo under the pretext of heresy because he saved a child having a high fever?”
Lin Suisui was no stranger to An Duo.
Previously, she had heard Black Cloud Pearl mention this past, so she asked.
Lu Ze nodded and said with certainty, “Yes, it’s him.”
Therefore, this was also the reason Mo Rigen and Gu Han had looked for him to discuss it. This shaman wasn’t easy to deal with. According to his plan, he intended to go out tonight.
However, after he told Lin Suisui this idea, he received Lin Suisui’s objection. “According to their schedule, they’ll probably reach us tomorrow. If you attack An Duo at this time, it’ll be too obvious and arouse suspicion.”
This was because An Duo’s destination originally wasn’t their place.
The reason they came this time was that they had heard the news about her. Therefore, at this critical moment, the death of a priest who might see through her identity as a goddess would clearly change their future arrangements.
Perhaps those tribal leaders would choose to cooperate because they believed in Mo Rigen, but what if…
What if someone had a good relationship with An Duo and used this matter to cause trouble?
Therefore, Lin Suisui only thought for a moment before looking up at Lu Ze, who was in front of her. With a hint of smugness, she raised her eyebrows and said, “Have you seen a ‘miracle’ before?”
Lu Ze shook his head gently, but it was obvious that he was intrigued by Lin Suisui’s words.
“Then, I’ll show you a miracle.”
As Lin Suisui spoke, she raised her hand slightly and made a few gestures as her expression became solemn. Just as Lu Ze was curious about what Lin Suisui wanted to do, he suddenly heard exclamations from the surrounding crowd.
Fireflies!
Large amounts of fireflies were summoned from all directions. The light of a single firefly was weak, but the effect of the light formed by thousands of fireflies was shocking.
At this moment, Lin Suisui had already closed her eyes. With a slight flick of her hand, the fireflies seemed to have been guided by someone and converged in front of Lin Suisui. In front of everyone, these fireflies actually formed a very gorgeous pattern in the air…
This shocking display lasted for about ten minutes. Then, the fireflies formed four streams of light and disappeared in front of everyone.
This mysterious but gorgeous display shocked everyone present, especially the northern barbarians, who believed in Tengri more than their lives. At this moment, they looked at Lin Suisui, who had been surrounded by the light of the fireflies just now, as if they were looking at a goddess.
Looking at the northern barbarians who suddenly knelt down and prayed to her, Lu Ze thought he understood why Lin Suisui did this.
The shocking thing was that the northern barbarian soldiers who followed Gu Han were actually mixed in with the crowd that kowtowed to Lin Suisui.
Lu Ze remained calm. After watching the scene in front of him, he lowered his voice and said to Lin Suisui, who had returned to the tent to rest, “Are you going to rope in the herdsmen of the tribe here and the northern barbarian soldiers who were by Gu Han’s side previously?”
“I’ve thought about it. Those people came in a hurry this time, so I don’t think they’ll bring too many soldiers. Therefore, as long as we win over the soldiers under Gu Han, as well as the warriors under Mo Rigen, we won’t be alone.”
Lin Suisui told Lu Ze her plan in a soft voice. As if thinking of something, she continued, “Moreover, those people will definitely be more convincing than us introducing ourselves.”
“Yes, that’s a good idea.” Lu Ze nodded in agreement with Lin Suisui’s plan. “However, we have to be careful.”
“Anyway, I’ve already decided. I’ll stay in the tent for the next few days unless I have no choice.” Lin Suisui replied to Lu Ze’s worries with ease.
She wasn’t a fool. At such a time, hiding was naturally the best solution.
Lin Suisui’s attitude made Lu Ze heave a sigh of relief. Fortunately, this little girl didn’t go against him on this matter. Otherwise, he would have to change some of his next arrangements.
The other party came quickly.
More than 40 followers led by the leader of the Ge He Sa Tribe surrounded a dilapidated carriage. The outside of the carriage was painted with all kinds of strange patterns and runes. It didn’t look like a pattern that had been decorated for aesthetic purposes.
Of course, what shocked Lin Suisui even more was that the people pulling this carriage were not horses, but a group of about twenty bare-chested slaves..
