When Bai Song heard this, he immediately became nervous.
During his absence, his wife encountered an assassin.
Bai Song immediately called Hou Junji to ask for details.
Unexpectedly, Hou Junji looked embarrassed when he heard this, and seemed to have something to hide.
Bai Song frowned: "If you have anything, it doesn't hurt to talk about it."
"Master Bai, the two ladies said they felt someone in their sleep, and the princess said she saw someone turning into ashes the moment she opened her eyes. But when we went to check, we didn't find anything strange. There wasn't even a single footprint in the military camp. There is no one left. I wonder if it could be the dream of the two ladies?"
"Dream!" Bai Song was a little annoyed.
Hou Junji continued to explain: "General, don't worry, there is indeed a reason for everything. If there is an assassin, I really can't think of any way to turn a living person into ashes in an instant without leaving any traces. Moreover, the general counted the men at the end of the second day and found no one missing. It is really impossible for an outsider to escape the layers of guards and enter the Chinese army's tent. "
Bai Song frowned after hearing this: "Is there such a strange thing?"
Hou Junji smiled bitterly: "Yes! Two ladies, one is a princess and the other is the granddaughter of a former general. Even if the general has 10,000 courages, he will not dare to relax, right?"
Bai Song nodded. He first told Hou Junji to take more precautions, and then returned to the military tent.
In the military tent, Liu'er and Xiaoqing were checking.
It happened two days ago. If someone really sneaked in, no matter what, there would be some traces left.
Seeing Bai Song come back, the two women came over at the same time and said in unison: "Husband (husband), we are not dreaming, we really feel the person."
Xiang Nan also added: "Husband, I really saw a person being burned to ashes and floating in the air because I smelled a very obvious smell at the time."
Bai Song kept nodding: "Don't worry, of course I believe what Madam says. I have already asked Hou Junji to move our military camp to the mine. But before that, we have to check the traces carefully."
At this moment, Liu'er's voice came: "Sir, there is something discovered here."
When Bai Song heard this, he immediately became alert.
The two women also trotted over.
Liu'er pointed to the tent above his head: "Look carefully, there is a very small hole, which is a mark of being burned through."
Bai Song looked along what Liu'er was pointing at, but he didn't find it at first. After observing it carefully again, he found a hole the size of a rice grain in the ceiling. If he didn't look carefully, he wouldn't be able to see it at all. .
Bai Song realized that what might have really happened, quickly brought a stool and stood on it.
Bai Song's height could just reach the hole when he stood on the stool.
Because it is too small, the sunlight shines through the holes and disperses before it reaches the ground. In addition, it is early winter and the sunlight is not strong, so it is even harder to detect.
There was a circle of burnt black around the small hole, and Bai Song reached out to touch it.
As soon as he touched the small hole, the surrounding blackness instantly turned into ashes and spread away.
The hole the size of a grain of rice can suddenly be penetrated with one finger.
Bai Song was stunned for a moment. The way the ashes were scattered just now was unusual. The black circle had been charred, otherwise this situation would not have happened.
Instant carbonization without fire...
The temperature at this moment must be extremely high, and ordinary fire cannot achieve this.
Could it be...
Bai Song thought about it in his mind, then looked back at the location where the two women said the assassin appeared, and finally looked outside through the small hole, leaning on two points and one line.
Diverging out from the two points and one line is the mountain wall of the mine, which is a place that ordinary people cannot climb up.
But for some reason, Bai Song suddenly noticed that some stones seemed to have fallen on the mountain wall in the distance. It seemed like there was someone there?
Bai Song rubbed his eyes, wondering if he had seen it wrong. He quickly came down and walked outside the military camp, and continued to look at the mine wall.
This time there was no movement, it was just an inaccessible cliff, nothing more.
"Ms. sir, have you discovered anything?" Shu Wang asked nervously.
Bai Song smiled at this time: "I believe that someone came to attack us secretly, but the two ladies have their own destiny, and there will definitely be someone in heaven to help them, so that the two ladies can turn the danger into good luck."
Shu Wang and Xiang Nan looked at each other, feeling a little strange.
They could see that Bai Song had actually relaxed, but this was not his father-in-law's style.
Before the matter was clarified, my husband would not take any risks. Why did he relax now that there was no beginning or end?
Suddenly, Xiao Qing seemed to have discovered something, and shouted in the camp: "Master, we found traces."
Bai Song was shocked and hurried back to the camp.
As soon as he entered, Bai Song almost fell down due to fright.
At some point, a two-meter-long green snake appeared inside.
The green snake was hanging upside down from the tent. The snake hesitated and seemed to be looking for something.
Xiao Qing said: "The thief can hide from human eyes, but not from the perception of animals. The thief never touched the ground and slipped in from the top of the tent. This snake has caught the thief's breath. and……"
As he spoke, Xiaoqing's expression became more solemn.
"And what?" Bai Song asked.
"And the thief seems to be practicing the Snake Kung Fu, which is similar to me."
Hearing this, Bai Song was really nervous.
"Same snake skill as you?"
Xiao Qing took out some powder and sprinkled it on the ceiling.
When the powder dispersed, a winding trace appeared on the ceiling.
"Master, look, these are not human footprints, these are the footprints of a snake."
While he was talking, the green snake had already come out of the tent.
Xiao Qing immediately followed, constantly using white powder to look for traces of the thief's infiltration.
As Xiao Qing said, looking at the traces alone, it was not a human being at all, but a huge snake.
And from one tent top to another.
After half an hour of tracking, the trace disappeared at the entrance of the military camp.
The thief really bypassed all inspections and sneaked in silently.
"Master, it seems that there are many mysterious masters in the Tubo Kingdom. They have become snakes and humanoids. I am afraid that half of their legs have entered the master realm. And those who practice such techniques are far more powerful than ordinary warriors. Dangerous. It’s really hard to imagine that the two ladies could escape unscathed.”
Bai Song frowned. He was relieved at first, but when faced with this situation, Bai Song couldn't feel relieved at all.
Xiao Qing is still thinking: "Why on earth? Why did the other party turn into ashes at the last moment? Even if the master's skill is still there, he can't do this, right? Could it be that his own internal power backfires? This is not the case! "
Bai Song suddenly hugged Xiaoqing with one hand, put it against the side of her face and said, "As long as you collect yin and replenish yin, you will recover your skills, right?" Yang
