The night was pitch black and you couldn't see your hand in front of you.

Bai Jingzhi sat up straight, she reached out to the man beside her, and let out a long sigh, "I'm sorry, I didn't want to do that. Fortunately, I'm still alive."

The man was warm and breathing normally.

Bai Jingzhi just stood up in the darkness, and felt a sharp pain in his ankle, "Ah~ Let go!"

Bai Jingzhi's ankle was about to break, and he stepped hard on the man's arm with his other foot.

"you--"

The man's hoarse voice in the darkness stopped abruptly.

The man fainted.

Bai Jingzhi took out the solar lamp from Guiyuan Tianju and had a clear view of the situation in the big pit.

She broke free from the man's hand, her balance was unstable, and the person on the ground used him as a cushion.

But this time the man did not wake up.

Bai Jingzhi moved closer with the solar lamp and saw the man's face clearly.

"It turns out that you are the unlucky one!"

Bai Jingzhi used the light to look around.

The pit was two meters deep, with half-meter-long wooden spikes sticking out from the bottom. The tips of the spikes were sharpened, and some of them were black and red.

Bai Jing shuddered, thinking: How many prey must have been caught! Fortunately, it didn't fall on those wood thorns.

The smell of blood spread in the deep pit, attracting Bai Jingzhi's attention.

The impact of her fall from above was quite strong. If this person hadn't passively taken the blame, she would have been the one who got hurt.

"Please don't let me hurt him badly!"

Bai Jingzhi was a little nervous, but he still walked over to the man, squatted down and checked his injuries.

She used all her strength to turn the man over.

Sure enough, the place where the man had been lying was already wet.

The ground turned dark red, and the bloody smell came from there.

Bai Jingzhi pinched his thin arms and legs, and couldn't help but wonder, "Is it that serious? Can the impact force of my small body be so great? You are so unlucky!"

In her eyes, the man's identity as an unlucky guy was confirmed.

"Since you are so beautiful, I won't bother about what happened just now," Bai Jingzhi gently rubbed his ankle and muttered softly, "Since I have benefited from you, I will not let you die so easily."

The man's silver-white mask scattered on the ground reflected the sun's light.

His face was clearly visible.

This man's name is Jiang Zhu.

Bai Zhao has been doing business for so many years, it is very easy for him to trick someone.

The man named Changhe before accidentally revealed some information.

Just when Bai Jingzhi was hesitating whether to save him, Jiang Zhu suddenly started to tremble all over, and a trace of blood flowed from the corner of his mouth.

"Is this... so serious?"

Bai Jingzhi felt a little guilty. It was she who broke the stone, and it would be unreasonable for her not to save him.

If Jiang Zhu died here, she would have to stay with the dead for a night, which was horrifying to think about.

Bai Jingzhi shook his head vigorously to drive the image out of his mind.

She quickly tore a piece of cloth from the man's clothes, folded it several times, and tied it over Jiang Zhu's eyes.

Then the two disappeared, leaving only darkness.

A few minutes later, there was movement near the trap again.

"Where is the person? Why is he missing?"

A man in black, holding a torch and with a flute on his waist, appeared next to the trap.

He jumped into the trap and touched the ground with his fingers. "Fell here?"

The blood on the ground had not yet dried up, and the man in black frowned in confusion.

The man in black pulled out the flute from his waist, and lingering flute sounds rang out in the trap.

The expected prey did not appear, but instead attracted Jinhua.

Jinhua stood on top and asked from a high position, "Where are the people?"

The man in black trembled all over and the song became out of tune.

“I don’t know,” the man in black bent his knees, his lips trembling as he began to explain, “He disappeared after being chased here. This blood is still fresh.”

Jinhua stood there, looking at his men coldly, "Is this what you call foolproof? Such an important person is actually lost!"

The man in black knelt on the ground, not daring to refute or move.

"If you can't do things well, you don't have to stay in this world!"

Jinhua held the long sword in her hand, which was glowing coldly. Just as she was about to chop it down, the man in black interrupted her.

"Commander Hua, I am willing to atone for my sins."

The man in black hurriedly expressed his stance, which slowed down the trend of the long sword falling.

"Tell me, how do you make amends for your crime?" Jinhua's voice was flat and the man in black couldn't guess whether she was happy or angry.

He jumped out of the pit in a hurry and spoke his mind boldly, "They have been looking for the missing women, and Wei Hongmian is one of them. We can take the initiative and use Wei Hongmian to threaten the girl."

The men in black didn't know the specific situation. The order given to them by Commander Hua was to capture Bai Jingzhi.

He saw clearly that this group of people had been looking for someone all day.

What he excels at is concealment and manipulation.

He followed them for the entire day without revealing himself, which shows that he is very powerful.

After listening to this, Jinhua just nodded and did not express her opinion.

"Shan Yin, didn't you say that a line of incense plus the soul-guiding grass would be foolproof? What happened today? How did you fail?"

Jinhua began to ask for specific details again.

“I’m not sure. I did use the soul-guiding grass to lure the person out, but problems arose when they got to this area.

I guess he might have been rescued, but there are no suspicious people nearby."

This is also what Shanyin doesn’t understand.

He never failed.

Jinhua values ​​him because of these things and doesn't care about his identity.

This failure has brought all the hard work of so many years to nothing.

Jinhua had a blank expression on her face, but she was thinking a lot in her mind.

This Shanyin was inserted into her team by the commander-in-chief. She didn't know her exact origin and hadn't found out.

Shanyin is very powerful. She has always distrusted him, but sometimes she still has to use him.

"You take twenty people to handle this matter. I will take the people back to Prince Ming's Palace first."

After Jinhua finished giving the instructions, she did not linger any longer and took the remaining men down the mountain.

After the main force left, Shanyin stood there, silent.

"Captain Shan Yin, what should we do next?"

The black-clad men asked, and Shanyin motioned for everyone to follow him to the place where the Taiming Mountains bordered the King of Yan.

How could the Wei family have anything to do with Jinhua? Shanyin couldn't figure it out.

And what secret does Wei Hongmian's daughter have that makes Jinhua chase her so relentlessly?

Shanyin led his men straight to Yanwang Territory, but they were heading in the opposite direction of Jinhua.

The group arrived quietly and left quietly.

These had no effect on Bai Jingzhi at all.

If she knew she was almost caught, she would only be thankful.

When they arrived at Guiyuantianju, she took people directly to the Chinese medicine store.

When she arrived at the storage room, she was not disappointed. "Dad is so awesome. All the prescriptions that Mom researched before have been made into pills."

Each grid contains a type of pill, and the name of the medicine is labeled outside the grid, making it easy to find.

"Internal bleeding, that's it!"

Bai Jing was delighted. He took out three porcelain bottles and went straight to Jiang Zhu.

"You're in luck this time. This pill is full of good stuff."

Bai Jingzhi poured out a pill and stuffed it into Jiang Zhu's mouth. He didn't feel at ease until the man swallowed it.
