"What did you say!?"
Xiao Liuzi was startled by his colleagues next to him!
It was clear that the main force of the Hou Jin people was at the front, but the city lord sent himself out. What is the difference between this and committing suicide?
But then he thought about it. First of all, there were enough brothers coming out this time, and there were even soldiers from the Doulu clan to escort them. Lin Lin finally came down, and there were hundreds of people.
Moreover, the main task of their trip was not to launch an attack on Houjin's main force, but to collect some intelligence.
After thinking about all this, Xiao Liuzi looked much better.
Facing the surprised looks of his colleagues, he could only smile helplessly and said:
"Sorry, I don't mean anything else, I'm just a little tired."
"By the way, where is your Commander Sun? Why haven't I seen him since I returned to the city? Could it be that he..."
"Commander Sun is not dead. He just took his brothers and hid in the mountains waiting for rescue. In addition to investigating the true identity of the golden thief, we must also try our best to find their traces during this trip!"
When the fellow scout who came out of the military camp heard this, he immediately looked serious and nodded seriously.
"They are all brothers, this is how they should be."
There was silence all the way. After about two hours, Xiao Liuzi and his group finally approached the siege equipment.
At this moment, the scout commander of the military camp had already issued an order.
"Each team spreads out and investigates the Houjin people's deployment from different directions. You only have two hours. After two hours, no matter how much information you have investigated, you must return here immediately."
"In addition, Commander Sun and others may be nearby. If you can find their traces, it will be a great achievement!"
"besides……"
After listening to the order, the various scout teams immediately dispersed. As the saying goes, when gathered it is like a ball of fire, when scattered it is like a sky full of stars, that is how it is.
The commander obviously noticed Xiao Liuzi's figure. He originally planned to let Xiao Liuzi follow his team to investigate, but looking at his tired expression, he still felt compassion.
"Xiao Liuzi, next you take two Doulu warriors to act on your own. Unlike them, your main task is to find the whereabouts of Commander Sun and others."
"I don't think anyone knows better than you where they might be hiding."
Upon hearing this order, Xiao Liuzi's figure trembled suddenly. The fatigue on his face was instantly replaced by excitement.
He took a deep look at the commander in front of him, and then bowed and saluted extremely seriously.
"Thank you very much, Commander Ma. Xiao Liuzi will remember this kindness."
After saying that, without waiting for Commander Ma to make other arrangements, he took the two young soldiers of the Doulu clan who were following him and hurriedly turned towards the depths of the dense forest.
"This boy is quite friendly."
Commander Ma took a deep look at Xiao Liuzi's back and whispered to himself.
Then he looked at the blue sky and sighed quietly.
"Old man, with your ability, you shouldn't be able to confess here so easily, right?"
"well……"
…
Xiao Liuzi returned to the mountains and forests again,
Despite the strong feeling of exhaustion, he was reminded all the time that he needed to rest at the moment.
But Xiao Liuzi just stared at the red eyes, looking around with wide eyes, not letting go of any clues.
Lord Commander, where are you hiding?
You'll be fine, right?
…
One moment, two moments...
For an entire hour, Xiao Liuzi walked almost the same path they took when they fled, but they still did not find Commander Sun leading them.
At this moment, his physical energy was almost exhausted to the limit.
Panting heavily, he bent over and supported his knees with both hands, his calves trembling in an exaggerated way.
"Brother, if you really can't hold it any longer, just take a rest."
One of the Doulu warriors couldn't help but persuade him.
Unexpectedly, Xiao Liuzi shook his head and said in a very insistent tone:
"We have limited time. We must find the location of Commander Sun and the others within two hours."
"Yesterday, Commander Sun gave me the chance to escape. I, the sixth son, must find Commander Sun today. If you want to see him alive, you will see his body if you die!"
Xiao Liuzi's tone was extremely firm. He suddenly raised his arm and took a hard bite on his own arm.
The next moment, fishy and salty blood instantly entered his mouth.
The taste of blood in his mouth, combined with the pain in his arm, revitalized Xiao Liuzi's very sleepy brain.
He straightened up again, although he staggered a little, his steps were extremely firm.
"If I can't find a bush, I will look for the next bush..."
"I can't find it in this forest, so I'll go find the next one..."
"Commander Sun has shown kindness to my little six son, how can I let him live in the wilderness?"
In this way, Xiao Liuzi searched for another half an hour.
Seeing that the time to return to the meeting point was getting closer, Xiao Liuzi's heart became colder and colder.
Is it possible that Commander Sun really...
These damn Houjin dog thieves, I will definitely kill them all one day!
No, I want to see people alive, and my body wants to be seen dead, I absolutely cannot give up!
After silently making up his mind, Xiao Liuzi's progress suddenly stopped.
He turned around and looked at the Doulu warrior who was following him with a complicated expression. He first cupped his hands, and then said:
"Thank you two brothers for following me for so long. Now that the time has come to gather, I won't keep you any longer."
"You two should go back quickly. I will remember this kindness!"
When the two Doulu warriors heard this, a flash of astonishment flashed in their eyes.
They were silent for a moment, and then asked in unison:
"Don't you plan to go back?"
"But... given your condition, even if you hold on hard, I'm afraid you won't be able to hold on for long."
Xiao Liuzi smiled carelessly, with only one pair of eyes on his tired cheeks still shining with unyielding light.
"Two brothers, there is no need to persuade me. If I leave here now, I may never forgive myself in this life."
"My saviors, my brothers and sisters, they are in this mountain, and they... are still waiting for me to save them!"
When the soldiers of the Doulu tribe heard this, their expressions became increasingly complicated.
One of the young Doulu warriors opened his mouth, as if he wanted to say something, but was pinched by the Doulu warrior on the side.
Then, the older Doulu warrior came up and handed all the dried meat and food he had brought to Xiao Liuzi's hands.
"You are an admirable Zhou man. I give these to you. I hope they can help you."
"I'm sorry, the military orders are overwhelming, we can't help you more. I wish you good luck!"
Upon seeing this, the young Doulu warrior immediately handed over his food. He hesitated for a moment, then handed over another jade pendant.
"This is the safety pendant my sister gave me. It is said that wearing it can keep you safe."
