Zhangji Grocery Store in Baishui County was newly opened a year ago and is located in the busiest street market in Baishui County. Perhaps because the weather was too cold, business was very slow at this time. There was not a single customer in the store. The waiter was sitting in boredom and dozing off when a bearded man suddenly walked into the store.

"Sir, what do you want to buy?" Upon seeing the guest, the waiter immediately went up to greet him and said with a smile.

"A few days ago, I asked shopkeeper Liu to bring the black bear skin. Yesterday he sent someone to tell me that it had arrived. Today I came here specially to take a look." The bearded man raised his head and said to the shopkeeper.

"Oh, I heard Shopkeeper Liu say, please come inside!" Upon hearing the bearded man's words, the waiter immediately beamed with joy and welcomed the man into the inner room.

The waiter and the bearded man walked through several rooms and finally came to the innermost room, where several people were already waiting.

This bearded man is Ye Ying in disguise, and this grocery store is a place set up by Zhang Fu and his son. In addition to the money they earn for the Eagle Army from their daily operations. He also has another important function, that is, an intelligence station set up by the Fierce Eagle Army in Baishui County.

The previous conversation between Ye Ying and the clerk in the store was a code word set in advance.

"My subordinates have met Commander Ying!" After Ye Ying took off his disguise, everyone present recognized his true identity and quickly stood up and saluted.

These subordinates of the Lieying Army who were hiding in Zhang Ji's grocery store were indeed good at finding out information. It only took half a day to find out many things about Hu Lianshan, the supervisor of the Baishui Camp.

"Report to the boss, Hu Lianshan rarely leaves the camp after arriving at Baishui Camp, so it is very difficult to get rid of him. However, this man is very lustful, and he will come to the county every three to five days He went to Chunyue Tower once, and his favorite girl is Bai Moli from Chunyue Tower." The shopkeeper of Zhang Ji Grocery Store, who is also the person in charge of the intelligence station, reported to Ye Ying in a low voice.

"It's almost impossible to get rid of it in the military camp. It seems that we can only do it when he leaves the military camp and goes to Chunyue Tower." Ye Ying nodded and said after hearing what the shopkeeper said.

"But he was afraid of death in Hu Lianshan. Every time he went out, he had to bring at least one or two hundred guards. These guards were selected by him from the camp center. They are very good at Kung Fu. It would be very difficult to kill Hu Lianshan under the heavy protection of these parts. Small." The shopkeeper said again.

"Is there a high chance of taking action in Chunyue Tower?" Ye Ying asked.

"Currently, there are many people in Chunyueli Building and the terrain is very complex, so it is a good place to do something. But we can think of it, and Hu Lianshan can definitely think of it, so the protection level here will definitely not be low." The shopkeeper of the grocery store is obviously a smart person, and his analysis makes sense.

"Go and check the route along this way. Give me a detailed route map and I will consider the best plan." After hearing what the shopkeeper said, Ye Ying thought carefully and said.

Speaking of which, Ye Ying was very lucky. On the second day after he stayed in Baishui County, his subordinates found out the news. In the afternoon of that day, Hu Liancai went to Chunyue Tower in the county to meet his sweetheart Bai. Jasmine.

However, there is also one aspect of bad luck. This time, Hu Liancai and he went to Chunyue Tower together with a deputy general in the military camp, so the defense level was increased. What was even more troublesome was that the deputy general was a third-level warrior himself.

"Let's do it. Wealth can be found in danger!" After careful consideration, Yan finally made up his mind, because if he misses this opportunity, he will have to wait for several days.

Hu Liancai has been in a good mood these past few months. Although he is only a fifth-grade civil servant, he is a close confidant of an important minister in the court. This time he got the job of supervising the army, which is very prestigious. Although the general leading the camp had a higher position than him, he had to act based on his own eyes, which greatly satisfied his vanity.

He thought that there was nothing to attract him in this remote and small county of Baishui, but he met a stunning woman like Bai Moli. This made Hu Liancai very satisfied, and he felt quite happy to be away from home.

In order to curry favor with Hu Liancai, the general hired Bai Moli from Chunyue Tower for him, allowing him to enjoy a visit to a brothel at public expense. Hu Liancai felt that his life in Baishui County was much better than in Jinling City.

However, Hu Liancai also knows that he has offended many people over the years, and many people are thinking about how to kill him all day long, so every time he goes out, he puts safety first.

From the military camp on the outskirts of the county to Chunyue Tower, there is a distance of more than ten miles. All the accompanying soldiers are very vigilant. This military supervisor, who even the leading general must be fawning over, if he is under the protection of himself and others If something goes wrong, I'm afraid everyone will be dead.

The journey of more than ten miles was not too far, but the whole team walked for nearly an hour in order to avoid the bumps for Hu Lian in the carriage. Nothing unusual happened along the way, which made everyone feel relieved.

After arriving at Chunyue Tower, all the guards became nervous, because there were too many people in this place. If someone wanted to take action, the possibility of taking action was greatest here.

Therefore, after these guards arrived at Chunyue Tower, the first thing they did was to surround the place. As for the Bai Moli room in Chunyue Tower, they first conducted a careful search, and then stood outside for more than twenty times. of guard.

Seeing these well-prepared guards, Hu Lian was completely relieved and happily entered Bai Moli's room, staying there for more than two hours.

By the time Hu Lianshan came out of Bai Moli's room satisfied, it was already two hours later, and the lieutenant who was traveling with him had already finished his exercise and was waiting outside.

The most dangerous moment has passed. When they returned, the vigilance of the accompanying soldiers had been reduced a lot. Especially when they left the county town and were only two or three miles away from the barracks, everyone's nervousness completely relaxed.

But it's normal to think about it. This place is only two or three miles away from the military camp. If an accident occurs, the soldiers in the military camp can arrive with just a cup of tea. No blind guy would choose to do it here.

But what all the soldiers didn't expect was that today they would indeed encounter a group of blind people.

As the entire team was moving forward, as soon as they turned an intersection, a fallen tree suddenly appeared on the road ahead, blocking the way forward. Fortunately, the cavalryman at the front reacted quickly and even though he reined in his horse, he did not cause a situation where he was knocked over.

Several soldiers quickly dismounted and were about to move the tree that fell on the road. Suddenly, several arrows were shot from the grass beside the road. Two soldiers were immediately hit by the arrows and fell to the ground.

"There is a sneak attack. Hurry up and protect Mr. Hu." The accompanying deputy general was very experienced in combat and immediately issued the order.

However, before these soldiers could make any move, a dozen masked men in black suddenly emerged from the grass. As soon as these men in black appeared, they quickly rushed towards the carriage that Hu Liancai was riding.

"Quickly, protect Mr. Hu!" If something happens to Hu Liancai in front of his eyes, he may not be able to save his head. Thinking of this, the deputy general immediately shouted loudly.

After saying this, the deputy general rushed towards Hu Liancai's carriage immediately. In a blink of an eye, he met the man in black who rushed first, and the two quickly fought together.

At this moment, the other men in black rushed over. They all had good skills. It didn't take long for several officers and soldiers to be killed by the men in black.

But all the officers and soldiers present knew that nothing could happen to Hu Liancai, so they did not retreat even a step and blocked the way of the man in black.

More and more officers and soldiers came over, and soon there was a tendency to surround all the men in black. Hu Lian in the carriage secretly opened the curtain. Seeing this, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"Catch them all. I want to see which blind guy wants my life." Seeing that they were safe, Hu Liancai became bolder and shouted loudly in the carriage.

"The wind is tight, pull!" The leader of the men in black also saw that the situation was not good, and immediately issued an order to retreat. These men in black were obviously well-trained, and soon abandoned their opponents, and the officers and soldiers were about to surround them. rushed out from the opening.

"Follow me, I must catch them!" Seeing the man in black trying to escape, Hu Liancai shouted loudly in the carriage.

The lieutenant general knew that once he caught these men in black, he would have achieved great success. When the general returned to Jinling and said a few nice words in front of the big shots in the capital, his official career would be smooth.

In this case, the deputy general quickly made arrangements and sent a large number of soldiers to chase the man in black in the direction where he left. At the same time, he summoned another soldier and let him. Return to the military camp as quickly as possible to report that the camp will send a large number of manpower to encircle and suppress these men in black who are trying to escape.

"Sir, let's return to the military camp first. I will do my best to catch these guys who are trying to murder you." After arranging everything, the deputy general came to Hu Liancai's carriage and said with a flattering look.

"Okay, let's go back first and ask your people to work harder to catch these people." After hearing what the deputy general said, Hu Liancai said lazily inside without even opening the curtain.

In fact, in terms of job rank, this deputy general was on the same level as Hu Liancai, but Hu Liancai was so arrogant that the deputy general took it for granted. Who said that the other general was a confidant of a big shot in the capital?

Seeing that Hu Liancai agreed to his suggestion, the deputy general immediately issued an order, and some soldiers were busy clearing the battlefield. The soldiers in front moved the tree blocking the road, preparing to allow Hu Liancai's carriage to pass through and return to the military camp.

Several soldiers hurriedly moved the tree across the road, and the deputy general protected Hu Liancai's carriage and prepared to pass through. However, they saw a man in a bamboo hat standing in front of him in the road, blocking everyone's way.

"Who are you? Are you tired of living if you dare to block Mr. Hu's carriage?" He couldn't see the person coming clearly, so the deputy general immediately pulled out his short knife from his waist and yelled at him.

"Of course I still want to live, but some people may not be able to leave alive today." The mysterious man standing in the road lifted the hat on his head, revealing a young and handsome face.

"Are you Ye Ying?" The faces of young people appeared in front of him, and the deputy general couldn't help but exclaimed.
