Chapter 24 The wind started at the end of Qingping

In this dark night, under the endless starry sky, some people are sleeping soundly, some are practicing, and some are burning with anger in fear.

"Investigate, we must find out who rescued that evil woman." In the icy cave where there was no longer a trace of warmth, Captain Zhang looked at the broken crystal cage and the water on the ground that had not yet completely dried up. His hair and beard were standing on end, and his eyes were scanning the many soldiers who were his prey.

"Captain, we have found the missing brothers." After a moment of silence, several soldiers came hurriedly from outside, carrying several charred bodies in their hands.

"Fire? Was it really that evil woman who did it?" Captain Zhang felt a chill in his heart when he saw the miserable state of his personal soldiers.

When the Kingdom of Han sent a large army to conquer the Baiyue, he was already a colonel. In that war, he made many contributions, but because he had no one above him, he remained a colonel for so many years and had never been promoted.

It was then that he realized that as a military commander, military merit was certainly a capital for promotion, but if there was no one above him, everything would be in vain. So, at the end of the war, he did something that now seemed very bold to him. In the chaos, he captured a witch, hid the girl secretly, and imprisoned her in this cave.

Now seven years have passed and the time for harvest has almost come, but the girl who has grown into a young girl has been rescued, and his years of plan has come to nothing.

And this is not the most troublesome thing. The more troublesome thing is that the witch was rescued. Who rescued her? Could it be the remnants of Baiyue? Thinking of the various strange methods of those Baiyue people, Captain Zhang felt a chill in his heart.

If it is a head-on confrontation, the remnants of the Baiyue people who had long since perished are of course nothing. Under the powerful bows and crossbows, tough armor and sharp blades, no matter how weird you are, you will not be able to escape death. But if you act as a killer and do something secret, the methods of the Baiyue people will be hard to guard against.

Especially since the Baiyue witch was the one wanted by the higher-ups, and he had hidden her away secretly, it was not difficult to imagine what would be the outcome for him once the higher-ups knew about it.

Captain Zhang, who had no way out, became more and more frightened the more he thought about it. He didn't know his superior very well, but the little he knew was terrifying enough. For a moment, his anger ignited by fear became even stronger. He hated himself for being so careless. The harvest season was about to come, but the man escaped. Thinking of the revenge and punishment from above that might come at any time, he trembled with fear.

"Sir, that evil woman was born with strange signs. As long as we investigate, we will be able to find her. It is extremely difficult for someone like her to hide her tracks." A man dressed as a scholar said to Captain Zhang.

"Don't act rashly." Captain Zhang's heart moved, but he immediately rejected the other party's suggestion. Now, compared to the revenge from the witch, he was more afraid of the accountability from his superiors.

Whether it was General Ji or Marquis Xueyi, killing him would be no more troublesome than crushing an ant. He could not let these two know that he had secretly hidden a Baiyue witch.

"Let's go. We have never been here before." Captain Zhang made up his mind after a little thought. This was the only way for now.

"Yes."

Under the starlight, a group of more than a hundred armored soldiers quickly moved through the mountains and forests, heading towards Yangdi City. They hid their tracks and erased any traces they left behind, as if they had never been there.

But is that possible?
Of course not.

Because now there are two pairs of eyes watching them from above.

"This lieutenant seems to have many secrets." In the cold wind, a young man was playing with a white bird feather between his fingers, saying indifferently with a hint of amusement. The night did not block his sight, and the cold wind did not blow away his style. He was wearing a single coat dotted with white feathers, had a slender and powerful body, and a delicate little white face. Such a person should be a young master of a noble family, but the cold light that flashed from time to time in his warm eyes told the world that he was definitely not a gentle boy.

"Everyone has their own secrets, it's just that Captain Zhang has a very wild heart." Next to the young man in white was a young man in black. He had a thin and long face, but was quite handsome, and his handsomeness was even more eerie and evil.

"So should we report to our superiors?" asked the young man in white.

"We just need to do our own thing. As for using our brains, that is not what we should do." said the young man in black.

"We are just tools?" The young man in white raised his eyebrows, and had some opinions about the words of his friend who was both his teacher and friend.

"Yes, we are just tools. When tools like us have our own ideas, they will be close to death." said the young man in black.

"Really? Although we will bring death wherever we go, death is just something in our hands. I don't believe that death will come to me." The young man in white said confidently.

"You!" The young man in black shook his head and smiled. Facing the young man's innocence, there was no need to say much. Time would teach them the principles of survival.

"As long as we are fast enough." The young man in white smiled faintly. This is probably what it means to be full of vigor and vitality.

Of course, he had the confidence to do so. He had played those powerful people in South Korea in the palm of his hand time and time again. Seeing those high-ranking officials who were usually high and mighty behave in such an ugly manner before their death, and even be worse than ordinary people, it was difficult for him to have any awe for this world.

"No matter how fast we run, we can't escape the night above our heads!" said the young man in black.

"Why should we run away? Isn't it our best decoration?" The young man in white pointed to the sky, which was dotted with stars and pitch black.

"Let's go. Those farmers have been very active recently. Who knows what their intentions are." said the young man in black.

"Farmers? They can run rampant on both sides of the Huai River, but if they want to do the same in Korea, I will let them know that the night sky of Korea can only belong to us." said the young man in white.

He is Bai Feng, the top killer of the most powerful killer organization in South Korea, and the dark sword in the hands of General Ji Wuye, the strongest general in South Korea for a hundred years.

"Bai Feng, although every strong person has a confident mentality, a confident person is not necessarily a strong person." The young man in black, Mo Ya, reminded.

"I have not only confidence, but also these hands and arm blades." Bai Feng stretched out his arms, and in the starlight, there was a cold light flashing, and a cold blade was looming.

"Let's go, it's time for us to do our own thing." Mo Ya said lightly.
