In Mocheng, yellow sand was flying all over the sky and strong winds were howling over the city walls.

At this time, Fan was sitting in his room, thinking about how to get the answer he wanted from the living person.

Suddenly, a rapid knock on the door broke the silence in the house.

"Sir, there is someone outside the door asking to see you, saying that he has something important to tell you!" A subordinate hurried over to report. It was not simple.

Fan frowned slightly, put down the book in his hand, stood up, straightened his robe and said, "I know, I'll go take a look now."

Soon, Fan arrived at the door of the room where the man was.

He gently pushed the door open and saw a man sitting in the room with a haggard face but still heroic spirit.

Fan bowed and said, "Sir, why are you looking for me?"

The young man quickly stood up to return the greeting, his eyes full of gratitude as he said, "My benefactor, I have no way of repaying you for saving my life. May I ask your name? I will definitely repay you handsomely in the future!"

Mr. Fan smiled and replied, "My last name is Fan, and I am from the capital. May I know what your name is, sir?"

The young master clasped his fists and replied, "So you are Mr. Fan. My surname is Gong, my given name is Tao, and I am also from the capital."

Fan nodded and asked thoughtfully, "Mr. Gong, it seems that your injuries have almost recovered. Are you ready to return to Beijing?"

Gong Tao sighed and said, "Yes, my injury is not serious anymore. I feel really bad for bothering you here for so many days. Besides, I have been away from home for a long time. I am afraid my family will worry if I don't go back."

Mr. Fan thought about it and sincerely suggested, "It may be dangerous for Mr. Gong to travel alone. Why don't you return to the capital with us? That way, we can take care of you on the way."

Gong Tao showed hesitation and declined, "My benefactor, the journey to the capital is long, how dare I trouble you to escort me all the way, please don't delay your journey."

Fan smiled cheerfully, patted Gong Tao on the shoulder and said, "It's okay. I've been away from the capital for a while now, and I've almost finished dealing with things here. It's a good opportunity for us to go back together. Besides, it will be more lively with more people, right?"

Gong Tao looked grateful and said, "Thank you for your kindness! Excuse me, is this Mo City?"

Fan smiled slightly, nodded and replied: "Yes, this is Mocheng."

After a moment's hesitation, Gong Tao spoke again: "My benefactor, to be honest, before returning to Beijing, I would like to visit the military camp. Is it convenient?" After saying that, he observed Fan's reaction nervously.

Fan frowned slightly, thought for a moment and said, "If you need me to take you there, that's not a bad idea. But the situation in Mo City has been complicated in recent days and it may not be safe." His words revealed his concern for Gong Tao's safety.

Gong Tao looked embarrassed, and after a moment's hesitation, he said, "I'm really sorry to have caused you so much trouble. I won't bother you to see me off."

Seeing this, Fan quickly waved his hand and comforted him: "It's okay, if it's inconvenient, forget it. But you must be more careful when you go out alone and pay attention to your own safety."

After hearing this, Gong Tao was deeply moved and quickly clasped his fists and bowed, saying, "Thank you for your understanding. I will never forget this kindness. When I have the chance in the future, I will definitely repay you with gratitude!"

Fan looked at Gong Tao and said softly, "You just take a good rest here. If there is anything you need someone to do, just let me know." After that, he nodded slightly, turned around and left slowly.

After returning to his room, Fan paused for a moment and shouted loudly, "Someone come!"

Before he finished speaking, a subordinate came hurriedly and asked, "Sir, why did you call me here?"

Fan's eyes were sharp, and he lowered his voice and said, "You quickly arrange for someone to keep an eye on him. If Gong Tao goes out, make sure to find out his whereabouts, who he has contacted with, and what he has done. Report everything to me in detail."

Upon hearing this, his subordinates quickly responded, "Yes, sir! I'll do it right away." After saying this, he did not dare to delay and hurriedly retreated to arrange matters.
