"Qingdai, why are you here?" Su Qiqi looked at the stunning beauty in front of her in shock. Qin Chuan also had a confused expression on his face, staring blankly at Qingdai's profile.

Qingdai looked at their expressions and couldn't help laughing again. She covered her mouth and said with a smile: "Haha, am I that scary?"

Su Qiqi smiled sheepishly and said, "We didn't know it was you who came..."

Qingdai nodded and said seriously: "General Fan asked me to help you..."

"Oh... let's go in first." Su Qiqi and Qin Chuan looked at each other, and then walked into Commander Wang's military tent with Qingdai.

When Wang Tong saw that it was Qingdai, his face relaxed a little, and he stood up with a smile to greet her.

After Qingdai sat down, everyone sat down again and talked about the next action plan.

Commander Wang was the first to speak: "After I returned to the camp today, I summoned several close associates. According to their reports, the patrol camp on the day Miss Wanrou was kidnapped except for Commander Xia of the Zuo Army and several of his bodyguards. No, everyone in the other four military camps practiced as usual and never left the camp..."

"In this case, Commander Xia and his personal guards must be moles..." After hearing this, Qin Chuan frowned and blurted out.

"Is there anything else strange? It's difficult to conclude based on this alone that they are the accomplices who kidnapped Wanrou and Ning'er..." Su Qiqi pondered for a while before speaking out her thoughts.

Commander Wang nodded: "Yes, it is difficult to infer based on this alone. After all, we occasionally receive some special tasks, and there are also temporary business trips. But the strange thing is that I asked the people who were placed in the Zuo Army Eyes and ears, they did not receive a new mission...it was just that Shilang Liu came over that day and had a secret conversation with Commander Xia, and Commander Xia temporarily left with his guards..."

"Oh, that's it...then when did they return to camp?" Su Qiqi asked expectantly.

"Commander Xia returned to camp around three o'clock the day before yesterday, but several of his personal guards have not returned yet..." Commander Wang thought for a while and said in a low voice.

"Oh, the man in black we just met in the Liu Mansion is most likely the personal guard of Commander Xia..." Qin Chuan frowned slightly and continued.

Qingdai, who had been listening quietly to everyone's speech, also interjected at this time: "I just saw a sneaky man in black outside the barracks, and I found this on him..." As she said this, she took out one from her waist. The token and a note were handed to Commander Wang.

Commander Wang took the token and note and glanced at it, his expression changed drastically. He looked at Qingdai nervously and asked, "Where is the man in black now?"

Qingdai pointed to the door and whispered: "I tied him up and hid him in the rocky hill outside the barracks..."

Commander Wang immediately stood up impatiently and said hurriedly: "Let's go! Take me to see..."

Qingdai responded softly, then started her Qinggong and ran towards the outside of the barracks. Everyone followed him out of the door and rushed towards the rocky hill outside the barracks.

On the rocky hill. A hidden corner.

The man in black, who was tied up with indigo flowers and had a kerchief stuffed in his mouth, woke up faintly. The moment he opened his eyes, he saw a terrifying scene!

"Ah! Monster!" He let out a shrill scream and fell into a pool of blood.

Not far from him, two men wrapped in furs took off their hoods, leaped a few times, and disappeared at the end of the path.

When Su Qiqi, Wang Tong and others arrived, they only saw a bloody corpse. Qingdai said a little guiltily: "I was careless..."

Commander Wang waved his hand and said: "Our opponent is too cunning... We have to act more cautiously! Tomorrow is the day of the trial of the three divisions..."

After hearing what Commander Wang said, everyone was a little annoyed. Su Qiqi's heart was also full of loss and worry. Finally, a clue was broken again. What should we do next?

Facing a cruel, cunning and elusive opponent, Su Qiqi felt frustrated for the first time. She looked confusedly at the dark scene around her, and suddenly fixed her gaze on the man in black in a pool of blood.

Maybe we can find something from the body? Thinking like this, she held back her inner discomfort and slowly approached the body lying in a pool of blood. She squatted down and looked carefully from top to bottom, her eyes falling on several hidden weapons on the neck and chest of the deceased.

They were several crescent-shaped darts made of crystal. The sharp end of one of the crystal darts was deeply immersed in the aorta of the deceased's neck. Blood spurted out, staining a large area of ​​sand and gravel beneath him. Several other crystal darts were concentrated on the chest, and the clothes on the chest were wet with red blood. The death state was very miserable.

Just as Su Qiqi was fascinated, others followed and stood aside to watch. Zheng Miao only glanced at the dead man on the ground and couldn't help but retched. Ning'er was so frightened that she covered her eyes and hid in Zheng Miao's arms.

Only Commander Qin Chuan and Commander Wang walked forward to check without changing their expressions. They also noticed the crescent-shaped crystal darts on the dead body. Qin Chuan observed silently for a moment, then stretched out his hand to pull out one of them and handed it to Commander Wang.

Commander Wang took it in his hand and looked at it carefully, and couldn't help but wonder: "I have never seen this hidden weapon before... Could it be that there are martial arts masters behind Commander Xia to help?"

Su Qiqi and Qin Chuan became even more worried after hearing this, and hurriedly asked: "What...what should we do? We don't even have a clue who our opponent is..."

Just when everyone was worried, Granny Cui suddenly said: "I recognize this crystal dart... This is the unique hidden weapon of the two monsters in the south of the Yangtze River, but those two people have disappeared for more than ten years... How come they suddenly appear here?"

Although Granny Cui recognized the origin of the crescent-shaped crystal dart, she was confused about the appearance of the person who used the dart. She couldn't figure out how the two Jiangnan monsters who once dominated the martial arts world could be involved.

Qin Chuan and Commander Wang looked anxious and solemn after hearing this. More and more people are involved in the poison pill case, and the case is becoming more and more confusing. The future may be unpredictable...

Su Qiqi was also secretly worried, her pretty face full of sorrow. She reviewed the recent events in her mind one by one. Her intuition told her that the appearance of the two monsters in the south of the Yangtze River must be related to Liu Shilang and Commander Xia. Wu Sheng Escort Bureau alone cannot recruit these two former martial arts figures.

Just when everyone was at a loss, the cry of night birds sounded again deep in the rocks. Su Qiqi looked at the end of the path uneasily, stared blankly for a while, then turned around and asked tentatively: "Commander Wang, should we go back first and then worry about it?"

Commander Wang nodded and said helplessly: "It will be dawn in a few hours, let's go back first..." Everyone nodded and followed Commander Wang back.

Along the way, everyone was on tenterhooks. It wasn't until they returned to Commander Wang's military tent that everyone relaxed. They each squinted their eyes and rested for a while before continuing to discuss plans to capture the mole and reverse the case and save people.

It wasn't until the sky turned bright that everyone was ready to leave. Su Qiqi asked Granny Cui and Qingdai to escort Zheng Miao and Ning'er back to General Fan's mansion first. He and Qin Chuan stayed to help Commander Wang deal with the mole.

Only Commander Wang, Su Qiqi, and Qin Chuan were left in the military tent. Commander Wang was still holding a candle and sketching out the draft of the action, while Su Qiqi and Qin Chuan were hiding behind the screen next to the desk with their eyes closed, waiting for Commander Wang to assign new tasks.

The two rested for a while and felt a little bored, so they started talking quietly. As they were talking, they suddenly saw a few black shadows flashing outside the military tent.

Huh? Could it be that Commander Xia wanted to strike first? The two of them suddenly became alert and quietly walked towards the door with their swords in hand. Commander Wang also put down his pen, picked up his sword, and walked to the window to wait for the opportunity.
