Chapter 8 As long as the person is alive

"Captain, there's movement!"

Outside Cao Feng's lounge, a jailer said in a low voice.

Inside the house, Cao Feng opened his eyes when he heard the voice and asked casually, "Have you arranged the personnel?"

"Everything was done as you ordered. We have arranged sleepy, drunken brothers at the twenty-four checkpoints and patrols along the way to ensure that she won't notice anything."

The jailer answered quickly.

"Well, good job."

Cao Feng nodded slightly and continued, "It's still the same old rule. After the mission is accomplished, the reward of three hundred taels will be divided among you."

"Thank you for the reward, Master Baihu!"

The jailer finished excitedly.

Seeing that Cao Feng had no other instructions, he immediately and politely took his leave.

"It's boring to just break out of prison. If you don't take down dozens of guards, it can still be called a prison break, right?"

Cao Feng, who was in the room, chuckled and whispered to himself.

To be honest, if the jailer hadn't reminded him, he would have almost forgotten about Liu Xingyu.

Cao Feng had been busy with his face-pinching these days, and had no time to deal with the female thief.

It's really pinching the face, just like what it says on the tin.

It was only after he started to study the rewards that Cao Feng made an unexpected discovery.

The female thief's disguise technique is surprisingly interesting and not as simple as it seems.

This is a type of cosmetic surgery that uses specially prepared herbs to change facial muscles.

As long as you have good skills, you can make it into any shape you want.

It is far from being comparable to those disguise techniques that rely on masks.

If it wasn't ineffective against strong people, Cao Feng would really like to study it in depth.

"Starting from the post-natal realm, warriors can not only release their internal energy, but also lock onto the enemy by sensing their aura. No matter how much their appearance changes, it is difficult to deceive a true master."

Cao Feng shook his head with some regret.

The art of disguise already has its limitations, and it also has a fatal flaw, which immediately greatly reduces the value of this interesting talent.

The fatal flaw was not the eyes as the female thief thought.

But...the taste!
Previously, Cao Feng had discovered a special talent from a spy from another country - the ability to recognize scents.

Anyone whose scent he locked onto, as long as they were within three hundred meters, would have no chance of escaping his pursuit, even if they turned into a mouse.

Not only that, knowing the scent can also prevent ambushes.

It was precisely because of this unique skill that the second-rate spy was able to evade the Jinyiwei's encirclement several times.

If it weren't for the two top-notch centurions who took advantage of their speed to crush him, the ordinary Jinyiwei would never have been able to catch him.

Even the general flags and centurions of the first-rate early and middle stages are not good enough.

It is said that the man's scent recognition range is as far as a thousand meters.

Being able to smell someone ambushing nearby from a thousand meters away is truly extraordinary.

It’s a pity that his martial arts skills are really too poor.

His final fate was to be squeezed dry by Cao Feng and sent to the Western Factory to be a toy for Cao Shaoqin.

Now, I'm afraid there is not even a bone left.

……

The night breeze is slightly chilly.

Liu Xingyu tightened his collar and turned to look at the heavy iron door of the prison with a very complicated expression.

There is surprise, confusion, disdain, and also a bit of complacency!
"The Jinyiwei prison that so many heroes in the martial arts world shudder at, I actually walked out of it so easily?"

Even Liu Xingyu himself couldn't believe that this prison escape would be so easy.

According to her original plan, she would make some noise even at the risk of her life.

So that her relatives and friends would not be implicated because of her.

Unexpectedly, everything would go so smoothly.

It was so smooth that it seemed unreal!

"What? In such a huge prison, there are less than 20 guards in total. It's a Jinyiwei prison, but I can come and go as I please."

That's it?

Liu Xingyu raised her chin proudly and said with disdain on her face.

If she had known this, she would not have waited until now.

He sneaked away two days ago.

"Hmph, you pervert, don't let me meet you outside the imperial city!" After leaving these harsh words, Liu Xingyu took brisk steps and tiptoed towards the darkness in the distance.

It's not advisable to stay here for long, it's better to leave the city as soon as possible.

But before she had walked far, she was stunned by what she saw.

"This……"

Everywhere I looked, there were only high walls and buildings!
Those visible and hidden sentries, and pairs of fully armed patrol warriors made Liu Xingyu's scalp tingle.

At this moment, she finally understood why the prison was so weakly guarded.

"Ahhh!~"

Liu Xingyu felt like she was going crazy.

At this point, how could she not guess that she was actually in the dreaded Jinyiwei headquarters!

Be it the Southern Pacification Division, the Northern Pacification Division, or the even more terrifying Duwei Mansion, none of them are places that a mere second-rate warrior like her can enter or leave!
Don't even think about escaping from here.

I guess as soon as he leaves the prison, he will be caught immediately!
"Calm down, calm down. Now that we have come to this, we have to fight no matter what."

What people in society lack the least is courage and insight.

Liu Xingyu forced himself to calm down and began to look carefully for a way to escape.

Huang Tian deserves a caring person.

With many years of experience as a thief, Liu Xingyu made a surprising discovery not long after.

There is a hidden loophole in the defense of this place.

Ponder silently for a moment.

After making sure that he had not missed anything, Liu Xingyu seized the opportunity and quickly climbed up the high wall just as the patrol team passed by.

"!!!"

Liu Xingyu, who had just stood firm, almost cried out on the spot.

There are actually two strong men squatting on this high wall!

"So you were just being lazy and dozing off. This really scared me to death."

I could hear a slight snoring sound and a strong smell of alcohol.

Liu Xingyu's pale face finally eased a little.

After calming his pounding heart and making sure he hadn't been discovered, a thin flying knife immediately appeared between his fingers.

"Never mind, you're lucky!"

Liu Xingyu originally wanted to take the opportunity to kill the two court lackeys.

But after hesitating for a while, he still couldn't do it.

After observing for a while on the high wall, he quickly rushed to the next defense loophole with a look of surprise.

However, what Liu Xingyu didn't know was that the moment she jumped off the high wall.

The two strong men who had just been sleeping soundly opened their eyes almost at the same time.

The two of them seemed to ignore the obstruction of darkness and watched Liu Xingyu go away quietly.

"Our Young Master Feng is really good at playing. He can always add some fun to this boring life."

The one with a mustache chuckled and said something.

They are certainly not strong men.

But it was a centurion wearing the costume of a strong man!
Liu Xingyu should be glad that he didn't do anything.

Otherwise, she would be sent back to the cell and would only have one breath left!

Cao Feng had said long ago that anyone who cooperated with him in acting could fight back at will as long as they were threatened.

As long as no one dies.

"It's a pity that we have to take turns and only meet once in a while."

Another person sighed with regret.

Ever since Cao Feng came to the Northern Pacification Office, similar cat-and-mouse games have been held from time to time.

Everybody loved it.

Not only can you kill boring time, but you can also get a lot of dividends.

"Alas, I wonder when Master Feng will choose his personal followers. I really want to serve under him!"

"You think too much. What is the status of the young master? Anyone who can serve him must be at least in the Xiantian realm. You and I can't get it even if we fight for it."

"Tsk, isn't it okay to fantasize about it?"

"You should stop daydreaming... Hmm? Something is wrong. Let's go and take a look!"
