When Shi Yi thinks about Xianyu, someone always comes to disturb her.

Zhang Laoliu ran back to his patrol camp in shock. From afar, he saw flames shooting up into the sky from the military camp, figures running around, and screams that sounded like devilish sounds that lingered in his ears for a long time.

Zhang Laoliu was in despair. Was the military camp also attacked?

This is how to do?

He thought of the border guards outside. Although he was just an ordinary soldier and didn't know the people over there, the situation was special now. The patrol camp was being massacred. Asking the border guards might be able to subdue the thieves, otherwise the entire border town would be in danger.

The patrol battalion belongs to the border town army, but due to its special patrol attributes, the patrol battalion is stationed at the forefront of the border town, which is still some distance away from the border defense army camp.

At that time, Zhang Laoliu still had the mindset of a soldier, and he took the safety of the border town as his own responsibility. Even though his comrades were killed, he was still fulfilling his soldier's duties.

By the time Zhang Laoliu arrived at the border military camp, he was disappointed. He had no idea what had happened in the camp and it was in chaos. He wanted to find the officers but couldn't find them at all.

The soldiers in the barracks were in chaos, running around and knocking Zhang Laoliu back repeatedly. One soldier knocked him to the ground. The soldier looked very anxious, but still reached out and pulled Zhang Laoliu up.

He whispered to Zhang Laoliu, "Run away quickly. There are traitors in the barracks. They are eliminating dissidents and killing many people. We soldiers must not get involved. Find a place to hide quickly and wait until the chaos is over before coming back. Otherwise, you will die without knowing how you died."

Zhang Laoliu opened his mouth but no sound came out. Their patrol battalion was also killed, but he knew that the patrol battalion was not killed by mutiny, but by masked men.

But who believes him now?

Who else could he turn to? Who else could he trust now?

Everything was fine before, how come it suddenly became chaotic? The foreigners did not invade at all, so who is causing the chaos now?

Zhang Laoliu felt that his brain was not enough and he couldn't think clearly, but he knew that he was in danger. It was obvious that they were the excluded "aliens".

He was the fish that slipped through the net. He had managed to survive with great difficulty and he couldn't be killed like his other brothers.

Since it is not an invasion by external enemies, the danger must come from within. He doesn't know who the enemy is, but the safe place now must be outside.

He was a soldier in the patrol camp, so he naturally knew which way to go to a foreign country in order to escape without being noticed. So he was frightened and fled to the grassland in a panic.

From then on, Zhang Laoliu became a wandering ghost, without a home, without relatives, and far away from his hometown.

He let out a deep breath, still unable to comprehend how he and his colleagues had procured the disaster that led to their death. The barracks had been peaceful a few days before they were implicated.

There was no difference from the past, could it be that he had overlooked something? He tried hard to recall, desperately going over the faces of the people who had happened in those days one by one, even those who he thought had no problems, and what they had said and done in those days.

Their barracks are the most remote, so why do we have to wear masks when killing them?

Don't want to be discovered? It's so remote that no one can find you.

So they don't want to be recognized? Who can recognize them? Someone familiar! Someone they know! Someone they've dealt with before!

The murderer turned out to be an acquaintance? !

This realization made Zhang Laoliu breathe rapidly. He felt like he was close to the truth, but something was missing. It felt like it was within reach, but he just couldn't touch it.

He banged his head against the pillar anxiously, but Xie Jiu heard it and ignored him.

He saw that Weidong's lips were dry and chapped. He wanted to give him some water, but he was still unconscious and didn't know what to do.

He dipped his finger in some water and touched it on Weidong's dry lips. Seeing the water droplets spreading out and moistening the dry red lips, Xie Jiu felt that he had done something very remarkable.

Every once in a while, Xie Jiu would moisten Wei Dong's lips. After a while, Wei Dong's lips returned to their original state, moist and red, looking soft and delicious.

Xie Jiu looked back at the quiet tent entrance. The guards had not returned yet. There were fewer people in the camp and it was much quieter. He looked around for a while, but couldn't resist the temptation and kissed Wei Dong gently on the lips.

I feel as excited as a cat stealing some fish.

He touched his lips and went out in a happy mood. According to the time, Ye Qingfeng should be back.

Ye Qingfeng and his men found the bandits' camp. There were not many people inside. Most of them should have gone out to rob their caravan and should have reported to the King of Hell by now.

He led his men and charged in on horseback with great force. The people in the bandit camp immediately became chaotic, and some of them came out with all kinds of weapons.

Seeing the neat and orderly team riding on tall horses, the scattered horse bandits were no match for them at all. They were shot and turned into hedgehogs by the guards' hail of arrows before they even started fighting.

There were no capable opponents, and the bandits were quickly cleared out. Ye Qingfeng ordered: "Search!"

The guards formed teams of five and began the sweep. All valuables were turned out and packed up and taken away. When they searched a shabby tent, they found some women in disheveled clothes.

These women hugged each other timidly, lowered their heads and dared not look at who came in at the door of the tent. Who was...

The guards looked at each other, retreated, and told Ye Qingfeng about the situation.

Ye Qingfeng was also in a dilemma. He said with a toothache, "It's not easy to deal with the captured woman." If the bandits were killed, it would be a relief to the people.

But these women are clearly victims, so they can’t be killed, otherwise they would become bandits! But it’s not realistic to just let them go, this is a vast grassland, and there’s no difference between just letting them go and killing them.

These weak women simply cannot survive on the grassland. Should we take them away?

There are no women in the caravan. They are afraid of causing trouble by bringing women with them. After all, the caravan is full of men. If one of them loses his mind and does something, it will easily ruin the relationship between brothers.

Seeing the captain in a dilemma, a guard said, "Why don't we take them back to the caravan first and make a decision after the shopkeeper wakes up."

Ye Qingfeng glanced at him approvingly: "That makes sense. These brainstorming tasks are more suitable for people like the shopkeeper."

He waved his hand, found a cart, hitched a horse to it, and took them away.

Xie Jiu stood outside and watched the security flag fluttering in the wind. He was also very surprised by the caravan's behavior. Whenever there was a fight, they would have to raise the security flag.

Although he didn't know why, it was obviously a common practice in the caravan.

Later, after he saw this flag many times in many places, he finally understood what it represented.

Now he just thought it was the custom of the Weidong caravan.
