Comprehension Ability: Creating the Five Thunders Technique in Reality-Chapter 955 - 481: Strange Formations and Unusual Arrays
Lin Beichen nodded slightly, confirming, "That's right!"
"So, what do you suggest?" Company Commander Li asked curiously, his gaze fixed on Lin Beichen's face.
Lin Beichen pondered for a moment, then slowly spoke, "We can have someone explore the way for us, let them cross that minefield first. That way, we can pass through safely."
"What? You mean to sacrifice others to pave the way for us? That's absolutely unacceptable!"
Company Commander Li immediately retorted, his army could never make such a callous decision.
Every soldier was like his own brother, how could he send them to their deaths?
Lin Beichen sighed lightly, understanding that Company Commander Li had misunderstood him, "I didn't mean sending real people to explore."
Company Commander Li frowned, "Then what do you mean?"
"Have you heard of the ancient stories where beans turn into soldiers and grass becomes horses?" Lin Beichen attempted to explain.
Company Commander Li looked puzzled, "You mean the legend of Guiguzi teaching Sun Bin and Pang Juan to arrange troops?"
"Exactly." Lin Beichen nodded, "We can borrow from this method now."
Company Commander Li sneered, clearly not believing, "Have you read too many novels? We're chasing after mercenaries now, not daydreaming!"
His favorable impression of Lin Beichen vanished in an instant, what he initially thought was a talented individual now seemed like an impractical dreamer.
However, Lin Beichen didn't care about his mockery, and calmly said, "Although we can't literally turn beans into soldiers, we can use these weeds to make strawmen to explore the path for us."
"Strawmen?" Xia Luyao repeated, seeing Lin Beichen already starting to pull up weeds by the roadside.
Company Commander Li turned to Xia Luyao, questioning, "Is this the kind of nonsense the Venomous Snake Special Team falls for? Someone actually believes this?"
But Xia Luyao nodded seriously, "I trust Lin Beichen, if he says so, he must have his reasons."
After speaking, she walked over to Lin Beichen and began to help pull up the weeds.
Company Commander Li stared at them in astonishment, then turned to ask the other members of the Venomous Snake Special Team, "Have you all been brainwashed by him?"
Flying Eagle and others came over, patting him on the shoulder, "Company Commander Li, actually we think Lin Beichen might have a point."
After speaking, they also joined in pulling weeds and making strawmen. Company Commander Li shook his head in disbelief, "Crazy, you've all gone crazy!"
At this moment, footsteps came from behind, Company Commander Li looked back and found it was Long Chuzhi leading the soldiers.
"Captain Long, why are you here?" Company Commander Li asked, puzzled.
Long Chuzhi said with a grave expression, "There's a minefield on the route ahead as well, we can't get through, so we've come to join with you and figure something out together."
Company Commander Li told them that this route was also mined, and then pointed ahead, "That kid says he's going to make strawmen, using the ancient method of turning grass into horses to cross the minefield, what a joke."
Long Chuzhi looked at Lin Beichen and the others who were busy, frowning slightly, but did not immediately express an opinion.
Company Commander Li thought she didn't believe it either and continued, "Let's find another way quickly."
But Long Chuzhi said, "Let's wait and see, maybe he really has a solution."
After witnessing Lin Beichen's Eight Array Diagram, she had started to develop some trust in him.
This time, she wanted to see what other amazing things Lin Beichen could do.
Soon, Lin Beichen and the others had made seven or eight strawmen.
Lin Beichen looked at them and said, "These should be enough."
Then, he took out a few sheets of talisman paper, bit his middle finger to draw talismans on them, and then stuck them on each strawman's face, finally dripping a drop of blood on each strawman's forehead.
An incredible scene then unfolded!
When Lin Beichen's blood touched the strawman's forehead, the blood slowly seeped in.
Immediately after, the strawmen seemed to be infused with life, surprisingly standing up and starting to walk forward slowly.
Even though the members of the Venomous Snake Special Team had witnessed Lin Beichen's extraordinary means, seeing the strawmen seemingly coming to life at this moment, they still found it hard to believe.
And those ordinary soldiers, especially Company Commander Li, widened their eyes in shock and confusion.
Company Commander Li looked at the unbelievable scene in front of him, speechless with shock, could only tremble as he pointed at the strawmen.
Lin Beichen looked at his mouth, which was open wide enough to fit an egg, sighed lightly, then snapped his fingers crisply.
The strawmen immediately stopped moving, quietly standing still.
The soldiers were again shocked by the scene before them, they had never seen anything so eerie. Company Commander Li finally found his voice, he asked Lin Beichen in amazement, "How... how is this done?"
Lin Beichen looked at him indifferently and explained, "This is just some basic Magical Techniques of the Daoist Family."
He continued explaining, "Though 'turning beans into soldiers' and 'turning grass into horses' sound a bit mysterious, they are actually a form of Daoist art."
Then, Lin Beichen dripped blood on each strawman, making them seem to come to life.
To ensure that the strawmen could detonate the mines, he also hung stones on each of them to add weight.
Once everything was ready, Lin Beichen muttered a spell quietly, then with a wave of his hand, seven or eight strawmen marched neatly towards the minefield.
Not long after entering the minefield, a mine was triggered, earth and rock splattered everywhere, and two strawmen's arms were blasted off.
However, these strawmen, as if oblivious, continued steadily forward, triggering mine after mine under their feet.
