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

After Xie Jiu watched Zhang Laoliu bandage his wounds, he personally tied him back to the original pillar and thoughtfully gave him a blanket to cover him to keep him warm.

There is a big temperature difference between morning and evening on the grassland. It is very hot during the day and very cold at night. Zhang Laoliu is still very useful and cannot die before reaching the border town.

Zhang Laoliu now believes that Xie Jiu really does not intend to kill him, at least not for now.

He closed his eyes and began to prepare for sleep.

Xie Jiu warned sinisterly: "You'd better remember more clues for me, otherwise I won't let you go, humph!"

Zhang Laoliu didn't even move his eyelashes, his thoughts went back to the days when he was an ordinary soldier. He followed Daxiong, which was the nickname given to Li Laogen by his brothers because he was tall and big, like a big black bear.

Normally, with his physique, he should be in the border defense camp, but Big Bear was assigned to their side by mistake. Fortunately, Big Bear has a good personality.

The brothers get along with each other in daily life. Zhang Laoliu likes to follow behind Daxiong. He feels safe because the big grid can cover him tightly.

Secondly, Daxiong loves to eat, and I can always get something to eat by following him. We are all young men, and we are of an age when we are often hungry. Although we can eat our fill in the barracks, the meals are mostly porridge, vegetable soup, and some black flour steamed buns, multi-grain steamed bread, etc.

The consequence of being full of water is that your stomach will be empty after urinating a few times, and you will often feel hungry again before mealtime.

You can often find food by following the big bear. Maybe it is because the big bear has this ability that it can eat its fill and never get hungry, and as a result it can grow so tall.

The big bear has a very sensitive nose and can smell food as it walks by. For example, it may find wild fruits nearby, or dig out some small objects from the soil that are surprisingly delicious when cooked.

That day, the two of them sneaked away to look for food again. Big Bear took him a long way and dug up a big bag of delicious food.

Just as they were returning, Zhang Laoliu stepped on empty air and fell into a hole. He rolled a long way before stopping. Daxiong was outside, anxiously calling Zhang Laoliu.

He didn't know how long it took him to wake up. He shouted to the big bear above, but no one responded. He didn't know where the big bear was.

He could only get up and walk forward tentatively, hoping to find a way out. However, the road ahead became wider and wider, and this place did not look like a natural cave.

The chisel marks on the stone wall were too obvious, and it was clearly a place dug by humans. He had been in the patrol camp for several years, but how come he had never known that there was such a place underground?

He walked carefully into a corridor and saw more signs of human presence, such as a variety of tools, shovels, hammers, iron shovels, backpacks, and hand baskets all piled together.

The more he looked, the more frightened he became. He hurried back. Even if there was a road ahead, he would not dare to go forward, for fear of running into someone and his life would be over.

He went back to the cave where he fell and waited for the big bear to rescue him.

When he went back, he heard Big Bear's panicked calls again. He pretended to have just woken up and responded to Big Bear weakly.

Big Bear said, "Old Six, did you see the rope I threw down? Tie it up and I'll pull you up."

Zhang Laoliu saw the grass rope hanging from the cave entrance. Hmm! It was actually a rope made of vines and various grasses. It can only be said that although the big bear looks big and strong, the craftsmanship is also quite rough.

No matter how ugly it looks, a straw rope that can save lives is a real good rope.

Anyway, after Zhang Laoliu fell down three times, the straw rope finally pulled him up before it broke for the fourth time.

Zhang Laoliu was so badly knocked unconscious that he could see double when he looked at Big Bear. Big Bear carried him all the way back and he had to recuperate for several days before he could get up.

At that time, everyone had no money, so as long as you could survive it, it was not considered a disease.

After he recovered, he forgot about the incident and never mentioned it to anyone, not even his good brother Daxiong.

But he didn't know that they left in such a hurry that they left too many traces, which had already been discovered by someone with ulterior motives. When the people over there found out, they paid great attention to it.

They checked everywhere to see who had been to the mine, and soon the patrol battalion was listed as a suspect, but no action was taken against them immediately.

This incident happened about half a year before the big shot arrived, so by the time the big shot arrived, Zhang Laoliu had already forgotten about it.

He lives a heartless life every day and is extremely happy if he can find some snacks with Big Bear. Who cares what the place is for? It has nothing to do with him anyway.

Little people have their own survival rules. They instinctively know how to reduce their risks and try not to get involved in things that have nothing to do with them.

Fortunately, it seems that this matter was not discovered by anyone, and their lives continued peacefully and boringly. But suddenly the whole team was destroyed on that day.

Big Bear was worried that he would have diarrhea, so he said he would go to the hillside to pick some herbs for him. He also said that they were very effective and that he would be cured after eating them for two meals. However, before he could find a chance to escape, someone stabbed him in the neck.

Zhang Laoliu saw that all the members of his team were killed. The clean and neat skills were really frightening! Even now, he was still terrified when he thought about it. This was the part he least wanted to recall. It was too cruel.

If he hadn't gotten an upset stomach from the snacks that Big Bear found the night before, he would have been one of the corpses. He covered his mouth tightly, not daring to make a sound.

After killing everyone, the killers retreated very quickly, as if they were very familiar with the route. They retreated to the other side of the hill carrying their bloody weapons.

[Bloody Weapons] Zhang Laoliu suddenly opened his eyes and fell into self-doubt in disbelief. For so many years, he seemed to have overlooked the most important clue - weapons.

Although those men in black had their faces covered, the weapons they held were of the same standard, and the border guards were all equipped with standard sabers.

Did the border guards destroy the patrol camp?

This is impossible. The border defense battalion is under the border defense force. To put it bluntly, they are the eyes of the border defense force. How is this possible?

No! Very likely!

Didn’t Xie Jiu say that the border guards mutinied? Mutiny! This means that there is a problem within the army.

The key question is who caused the mutiny.

When General Xiao arrived, many border guards had already died. The old general could only suppress the turbulent army with iron-blooded tactics.

Retrieve the scattered and fleeing ordinary soldiers, and promise not to punish those who fled out of fear.
