The army marched quickly, day and night.

They didn't stop to cook on the way. A meal only required a few dry biscuits, a piece of dried meat, and a pot of water.

Finally, two nights later, the army arrived at a mountain plateau thirty miles away from Hengshui City.

After Shen Nanxing ordered his men to observe the terrain, he ordered the army to set up camp here secretly.

According to the spies' report, although Hengshui City has been controlled by the Donglai people, the people of Hengshui City have not been massacred. They can even walk and live normally in the city, and the shops and stalls selling various goods are also operating as usual.

In this way, Shen Nanxing's heart, which had been hanging in the air for the past two days, finally settled down.

She didn't dare to relax for a moment in the past two days, for fear that the Donglai people would massacre Hengshui City and the army would not have time to rescue it.

She actually didn't hold much hope in her heart, and now that she knew the people were safe, she was relieved, but there was also something strange about it.

The Donglai people occupied three cities in Beiyue, but only massacred the people in two cities and left one city alone. What's the reason for this?

And in the previous life, the people of Donglai did not massacre the city...

Did something happen in this life that she didn't know about?

Shen Nanxing frowned and paced back and forth in the tent, but he still had no clue.

Just when I was feeling troubled, a crisp voice came from outside the tent.

"Sister Nanxing, can I come in?"

Shen Nanxing's brows relaxed: "Shuang'er, come in!"

A heroic woman with a man's bun and wearing armor walked in, holding a cowhide bag in her hand.

As soon as Hu Shuang'er entered the tent, she handed the cowhide bag in her hand to Shen Nanxing: "Sister Nanxing, have something to eat!"

Shen Nanxing didn't feel hungry at first, but when he smelled the aroma of meat coming from the cowhide bag, he suddenly realized that he hadn't eaten for a long time and was starving.

She took the cowhide bag with a smile, took out the dried meat from it, and asked casually, "How is the military advisor? Has he woken up?"

Two days ago, after Fu Jiuli beat Hu Lin and Qiao Er out, Shen Nanxing went to see them. Both of them suffered internal injuries to varying degrees and were unconscious.

After examining the two, the military doctor said that although they looked seriously injured, they had not suffered any vital injuries and only needed to rest for a few days.

However, Qiao Er was more seriously injured than Hu Lin.

Shen Nanxing thought that it must be Qiao Er's words "Nine Thousand Years Old" that day that exposed Fu Jiuli's identity, and the bastard was angry.

After all, the identity he had tried so hard to hide was exposed with just one sentence from Qiao Er...

You should be angry.

When Hu Shuang'er heard Shen Nanxing asking about her brother, her eyes lit up with joy. She came to her just to talk about this.

"Sister Nanxing, my brother just woke up, and as soon as he woke up he shouted that he wanted to see you! I think he must have something important to tell you."

Hu Shuang'er blinked her bright eyes: "Sister Nanxing, if you are free, why don't you go see my brother?"

Shen Nanxing originally wanted to find someone to discuss this with, and Hu Shuang'er's proposal was exactly what she wanted, so she readily agreed.

The two of them left the tent together and came to Hu Lin's tent.

But the moment she followed Hu Shuang'er into the tent, a cold-faced figure in black clothes and black hair suddenly appeared in her mind.

The man's face was cold, and his deep, dark eyes stared at her steadily.

There was clearly no emotion in those eyes, but Shen Nanxing could still sense a hint of grievance from them.

It was as if saying to her: You are going to find another man again.

Shen Nanxing paused and looked around, but did not see the man.

He laughed and patted his head.

She hadn't seen him since he left two days ago.

It seems that I am obsessed with him.

I wonder where he's been these past two days? He should still be in the army, but since he doesn't want to see her, she can't find him...

Shen Nanxing hesitated for a moment before stepping into Hu Lin's tent.

Not far away, a man dressed in black clothes and black hair came out from behind a tree, his eyes looking straight in the direction of a tent.

The corners of his clothes were blown up by the wind, and his fists were quietly clenched at his sides.

It would have been fine if he had been busy traveling these two days, but once he stopped, he didn't even take a rest and was in such a hurry to find Hu Lin.

And you still say he’s not your fiancé?
