The thick rope was tied around Xu Hu's waist and began to go down the cliff.
Xie Hongling was next to him, and the two of them disembarked together, followed by a series of elite soldiers.
Worried about the king's safety, Xu Hu and Xie Hongling were in a hurry.
This cliff was not very deep, and not long after, the two of them had landed first.
The place where he settled was right by the pool, and he almost touched the water. When he saw the pool under the cliff, Xu Hu couldn't help but feel shocked, and a glimmer of hope rose in his heart: "The king should be fine!"
"That's right!" Xie Hongling and he looked at each other, both excited, and the two hurriedly walked along the edge of the pool to the other side.
Immediately afterwards, a large number of elite soldiers from the two countries also climbed down the rope.
"Quick! Keep up!"
Xu Hu waved his hand to urge, and then began to observe the terrain here.
The same was true for Xie Hongling, but the woman was more attentive, and she soon discovered the traces left by Xiao Yuan.
"Look!"
She hurriedly took a few steps, and Xu Hu followed closely behind.
On the ground, there was a branch with leaves, and there were marks made of stones beside it.
After seeing it, Xu Hu said without saying a word, "This way!"
"How did you know it was here?" Xie Hongling was a little worried.
"This is the mark left by my king, you don't need to ask any more questions."
In fact, this is some kind of information in the Qin army, and Xu Hu can certainly understand it.
Under his guidance, the two groups hurried along the route Xiao Yuan had taken.
Because of the previous mark, Xu Hu naturally began to pay special attention to it in the dense forest. Sure enough, he soon discovered that every once in a while, he could see the guidance left by the king.
This was equivalent to a road sign. Before long, everyone had arrived at the place where the wild wolf died tragically.
The body of the wild wolf had long since disappeared. It had probably been picked up by other wild beasts in the mountains, leaving a pool of blood on the ground.
Seeing this, Xu Hu and Xie Hongling felt excited again.
"God bless me, my king is fine"
"Let's go!"
"Follow me all!"
Last night, Xiao Yuan was groping forward, and he had to be wary of wild beasts and mark all the way. But now that it was daytime and he had guidance, his speed was naturally incomparable.
Only half an hour later, everyone had arrived outside the wild ridge, and when they hurried on, they saw the village.
After entering the village, Xu Hu was so anxious that he didn't care much. He immediately found the village chief and asked him to call all the villagers over.
In the small village, two generals and a group of soldiers suddenly came. All the villagers were a little scared and gathered at the entrance of the village with fearful expressions on their faces.
Xu Hu looked around and asked directly: "Is there any fellow villager who has seen a man and a woman? If you tell the truth, you will be rewarded!"
Hearing this, all the villagers whispered among themselves. One man hesitated, raised his hand and said tentatively:
"The general is talking about a young couple?"
"What couple?" Xu Hu was stunned.
Xie Hongling's heart moved, more or less delicately, and she quickly asked: "Be specific."
The man didn't know what happened and stammered: "That young man is handsome, with bright eyes. He looks like he is in his twenties. The girl is very beautiful. They are obviously a husband and wife, and they are rich at first glance. That’s expensive.”
Hearing this, before Xu Hu could say anything, Xie Hongling perked up and asked again: "Where did they go!"
"Ping'an County." The man's voice was still trembling.
Xie Hongling didn't ask any more questions, but hurriedly whispered to Xu Hu.
The latter nodded, and after confirmation, he gestured to his subordinates: "Give him some money."
"It's all gone!"
Then, he called an accompanying military intelligence officer: "Send the news back to the cliff."
"Understood!" The soldier took the order and left.
The two gangs rushed towards Ping'an County again.
In the afternoon, Ping'an County, at the gate of the small town.
Under the rule of the Qin State, there were also Wuwei Prefectures in counties and villages.
Xu Hu and Xie Hongling were still wearing armor, with swords hanging on their waists, and followed by a large group of soldiers.
In this situation, and it was during the war, the magistrate of Ping'an County immediately panicked after receiving the news, because he did not understand the situation and thought it was an enemy attack!
At the city gate, the county magistrate, with dozens of officers and soldiers behind him, was asking about the situation.
Fortunately, when he saw the Qin army's armor, he couldn't help but secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Then with a smile on his face, he took a few steps forward, bent down towards Xu Hu and cupped his hands, saying: "General, this is"
But now Xu Hu was not in the mood to talk nonsense with him, so he directly took out his military badge and stuffed it into the county magistrate's arms.
The latter picked it up and looked at it, and immediately screamed, his hands shook, and he almost dropped the general card:
"Tiger and Tiger Marquis"
"I have something important to do. I must go into the city and ask these officers and soldiers to retreat!" Xu Hu took back his military card and said directly.
"Yes! Yes!" The county magistrate responded hurriedly, not daring to hesitate.
But soon, he cautiously said: "But general, these Xuan troops"
Xu Hu glared at him, and the county magistrate quickly bowed and backed down, not daring to speak any more.
At this time, if you don't let Xie Hongling follow you, she may have to fight you tooth and nail!
As soon as they entered the city, the two men led a large number of elites on the street, one person per side, ignoring the eyes of passers-by, and began to shout loudly:
"Master"
"Miss"
They didn't call each other "King", one called him "Sir" and the other called "Ms."
How could such a movement not cause a sensation in a small county town.
Soon, both sides of the street were filled with people talking about it.
As he walked to the door of an inn, a heavy cough came into his ears.
This feeling was very familiar, Xu Hu quickly looked around.
As far as the eye can see, Xiao Yuanzheng and King Xuan are standing side by side, giving them a slightly dissatisfied look.
"Ah?" Xu Hu was overjoyed when he saw this and hurriedly stepped forward. Xie Hongling was the same.
There was obvious excitement on their faces, and they were both excited.
"Young Master, you scared me to death!"
"Yes, Miss." Xie Hongling's eyes were slightly red, mixed with heavy fear.
"Okay, it's my fault that made you worry."
Xiao Yuan said, seeing his beloved general like this, the two kings felt somewhat warm in their hearts.
Now that there were many people watching, Xiao Yuan suddenly felt uncomfortable and whispered: "This is not the place to talk. Leave here first. In addition, have you notified the army?"
"Don't worry, young master, the news has been sent back." Xu Hu said hurriedly.
"Well, let's go." Xiao Yuan nodded.
But at this time, the Ping'an County Magistrate hurried over.
A small county magistrate who had never seen the king came over and bent over Xu Hu and smiled:
"I heard that the general is looking for someone. I don't know if there is anything I can do for you. General, please give me your instructions."
The general came to the small county town, and he completely wanted to take this opportunity to build relationships.
When Xu Hu heard this, he glanced at Xiao Yuan subconsciously and said: "The county magistrate is interested, but no need."
There were only two marquises in the entire Qin State. Suddenly one came. He was eager to find the person to protect him, who could it be!
The county magistrate followed his gaze and when he saw Xiao Yuan, he seemed to understand something in his heart, and his expression changed immediately.
