In the middle of the night, the moon is dark and the wind is high.

The guards in the new barracks were not tight, and it was not difficult for Chi Yue to get in and out.

When Chi Yue saw Qi Xiao and Tang Ling, before the others had time to say anything, Qi Xiao asked Chi Yue to replace Tang Ling and secretly replaced Tang Ling.

Zong Sheng met him outside the new barracks, and he waited for an hour before he saw him, and his heart was finally stabilized.

Zong Sheng didn't ask any further questions, picked up Tang Ling and left quickly.

Conscripts were everywhere in Ji Chen City, and all the young men were brought into the new barracks. Now there are only old and weak women and children left in the city. If they go back to Ji Chen, they will be too conspicuous, and they will inevitably be recruited again.

Zong Sheng took Tang Ling to a thatched hut in the mountains, not too far from Fu Shouguang's barracks. It was supposed to be the Orion's house, but the building had already been emptied, and they happened to occupy the magpie's nest.

"This place is crude, so let's make do with it for the time being, my lord."

"I'm fine."

"I'm going to fetch water for the son to freshen up."

While washing away the disguise on her face with water, Tang Ling said to Zong Sheng, "You and Chi Yue have worked hard these two days."

Zong Sheng never talked much, he simply replied: "It's not hard."

"Did you have any clues about Xing Luowei in the past two days?" If Xing Luowei had been found, Zong Sheng would definitely tell him.

"We did find Xingluowei's codes in the city, but the place where they settled down has long since disappeared."

"I'm afraid it's also because of the massive conscription in the city that they can't hide, so they have to move."

Tang Ling frowned, and said, "Or something else happened?"

Tang Ling wiped her face clean, her own face was vaguely reflected in the muddy water, as if it was very strange.

Tang Ling sighed, Qi Xiao and Chi Yue didn't know how long they could hang around, they had to find Xing Luowei as soon as possible, otherwise even if they could burn Fu Shouguang's food and supplies, they wouldn't be able to escape unscathed.

"... Chi Yue shouldn't have replaced me."

Chi Yue's disguise technique is unparalleled in the world. Pretending to be a woman should not trouble him. It will be much more convenient to act in or outside Jiyi City, but he is just the opposite, useless.

"We have left marks outside Ji Qian City and outside Fu Shouguang's barracks. If Xing Luo Wei is still nearby, we will definitely find him."

"I hope so."

"I can do a simple disguise, you don't have to worry about it, young master."

Tang Ling looked at Zong Sheng, and suddenly smiled: "Zong Sheng, I seem to have never heard you say so many words at once."

Zong Sheng was startled slightly, and lowered his head.

Zong Sheng is a bit like Ye Huai, they do what their master says, never ask why, let alone disobey.

But would he really not complain?Ye Huai occasionally showed a look of confusion and disapproval, but Tang Ling never saw Zong Sheng's face. He seemed to be always quiet, and seemed to have a reassuring gentleness.

Zong Sheng was silent for a while, and said, "My lord, are you hungry, I'll go get something to eat."

Tang Ling smiled slightly, and only asked, "How much more dry food?"

"Ten days are enough."

"Ten days...how about Xuanji Camp? How about the battle between Shuoliang and Bashan?"

"When we were in Huangting Town, we did get in touch with the Xuanji Camp. Chen Heng led the Dingyuan Army to meet up with Baixiqiao and Lu Xiulin, captured Bashan, forced Xu Zheng to retreat and defended Zhengye Pass, and the Yaoshan army surrounded it. Shuoliang, however, was at a stalemate.

But the master didn't want Xuanjiying to reveal his whereabouts, so he threw them away after leaving Huangting Town. "

Tang Ling sighed softly, he wasn't even surprised, Qi Xiao has such a temper, Xuanji Ying dared to secretly communicate with the Zhan Shi Office, not to mention trust, in Qi Xiao's eyes, they should all be damned.

"Let's find a way to contact Xuanji Camp.

At least they will try their best to protect Qi Xiao. "

Zong Sheng looked at Tang Ling, hesitated for a moment, and said, "My lord, forgive me for not obeying.

The Lord ordered not to reveal his whereabouts. "

"He's in Fu Shouguang's recruit camp right now, do you know that if someone finds out that he and Chi Yueyi Rong Rong are in the camp, they will surely die.

In such a situation, you are not worried?I can't stop him from doing what he wants to do, but at least I should try my best to protect him, shouldn't I? "

"... Grandpa and Chi Yue will be fine."

Of course Zong Sheng was worried, but he believed that Qi Xiao also trusted Chi Yue.

What's more, it is impossible for him to disobey Qi Xiao's confession, even if he thinks about it.

Tang Ling sighed softly, he couldn't convince Zong Sheng.

Now he can do nothing but wait...

This waited for three days, during which Zong Sheng pretended to be a lame old man, and would go to the official road leading to Jilong City every day to check if there was a new contact code, or if there was any movement in Jilong City, but unfortunately he didn't get anything.

Tang Ling hid in the mountain hut, as if she had returned to Fenglin Mountain. It was also such a simple room. During the few days when Qi Xiao encountered a heavy snowstorm, he also waited all the time. , but I don't know if Qi Xiao is safe and sound, and I am so worried.

"Dong dong..." The knock on the door made Tang Ling vigilant immediately. Instead of answering, he lay down on the bed, holding his breath and listening to the movement outside.

"Is anyone there?" It was a woman's voice.

"Y-Yeah."

The door of the hut was pushed open, and someone walked in slowly.

"anyone there?"

A ragged woman walked in, looked around the room, and immediately turned her gaze to Tang Ling who was lying on the bed.

Before Zong Sheng went out, he smeared medicinal powder on Tang Ling's face, neck, and hands. Although it couldn't change his appearance, it could make him look sick.

If someone comes, he can just lie down and pretend to be terminally ill.

No matter how eager Fu Shouguang was to recruit troops, he still wouldn't be able to recruit a "dying man" to make up his numbers.

"Hey... are you still alive?" The woman approached Tang Ling carefully.

Tang Ling has been very thin in recent days, coupled with this sallow face, no matter how you look at it, she can't be saved.

Tang Ling slowly opened her eyes, as if struggling to look at the woman beside the bed, she slightly parted her lips, but did not make any sound.

The woman frowned when she saw that he was giving out more air than taking in more air, and said, "I... have been hungry for many days, and I just want to ask for a stutter."

Tang Ling looked at her. The woman was not very old, with a very ordinary appearance. She was dressed in rags, and her figure was a bit stooped. A pair of straw sandals on her feet were torn and muddy, and she was in a mess.

The woman was sized up by Tang Ling for a while, and then she saw Tang Ling gently closed her eyes.

"Hello? Hello!"

Tang Ling didn't answer, so the woman ignored him, looked around the room, and finally left.

Tang Ling lay on the bed and didn't get up immediately, he wanted to wait.

That woman is a bit weird, a woman, looking for food in the mountains?If she had been hungry for many days, why didn't she search the room and grab some food before leaving?Could it be that his conscience is so good that he wants to pity him, a dying man?

Anyway, Tang Ling waited left and right, there was no difference between waiting sitting and waiting lying down.

After about a stick of incense, there was some movement outside Tang Ling's hut.

"...that's it."

The woman's voice came from the door, very softly.

Tang Ling didn't have martial arts skills, and her hearing was not good, so he couldn't tell how many people were outside.

If it was someone who came to grab food, Tang Ling couldn't beat him, so he could only let him grab it, thinking that they wouldn't bother to kill a sick child.

"Y-Yeah."

The hut with dried tofu can be seen at a glance.

Tang Ling was looking at the door with her head sideways. The person who came was tall and wearing a bamboo hat, so she couldn't see his face clearly.

The people at the door also saw him.

"... Young Master?!"

As soon as the man made a sound, Tang Ling sat up in shock: "Shen Lv?!"

Shen Lv took off the bamboo hat in three steps and made two steps, and immediately arrived in front of Tang Ling's bed, and knelt in front of Tang Ling on one knee: "My lord, are you alright?"

Tang Ling laughed loudly: "It's okay."

"your face?"

"It's just a powder."

Tang Ling got out of bed and pulled Shen Lu up, "You are my father's lieutenant general, you are not in front of the two armies, why did you come here?"

"Master Hou was worried about your son, so I came here."

"It's good that Xing Luo Wei is here.

Thank you, General Shen. "

"Young master, follow me back."

Shen Lv took Tang Ling's hand and was about to take her out.

"Wait, I can't go yet."

"What do you mean, son?"

"How many people did you bring?"

"Counting Xingluowei, fifty."

"Should be enough."

"My lord, this place is very close to Fu Shouguang's camp. No matter what you want to do, please follow me to a safe place before making any plans."

Tang Ling stood still and held Shen Lv down: "I can't leave yet.

It's fairly safe here. "

"My lord, I can find it here, and so can the people who occupy the office."

"It's okay to go with you, but I have to wait for someone to come back."

"..." Shen Lu frowned, and asked in a cold voice, "That God of Death from Chen Guo?"
