Chapter 49: Meeting fellow countrymen in a foreign land
The next day, the sky was already bright.
Xu Heng had a dull look on his face, squatting in a deserted alley, facing the wall, doubting life.
He drove all night and finally found the enemy's Heianjing.
This is a large city with ancient streets and alleys, very much like the neighborhood that was polluted during the Qingming Festival.
It’s just that the clothes of the people here are very colorful, which can be said to be colorful and extremely bright.
What surprised Xu Heng even more was how some women were dressed. They were wrapped in thick and bright outer clothes, wearing white socks and wooden clogs, their hair was tied up, their faces were painted with powder as white as snow, and their lips were red. paste.
Despite such heavy makeup, many women still look charming, with spring in their brows and eyes.
Such customs and customs made Xu Heng feel a little strange.
But it made him suspect that life was the language here, and he couldn't understand it at all.
It was fortunate that when he entered the city, he chose to use [Without a Trace]. After the six-fold increase, he had 18 seconds of invisibility, which was enough for him to pass through the city gate.
Otherwise, if you try to disguise your identity and sneak into the city, you will probably be captured the first time you speak.
The key is that the map only shows the location of Ping'an Jing, and the opponent's military tent has long since changed its location, so Xu Heng originally wanted to sneak in to investigate first, and then go for the assassination.
But now the situation is very bad, the language is not clear, how can we still play?
"It's really too reckless. I set off without checking enough information. If I had known that they couldn't understand the language, I would have brought someone with them who understands their language." Xu Heng regretted a little.
It feels good to start out, but if you are not careful, you will end up in the crematorium.
I will examine myself three times every day, and I will take warning from you in the future!
“Forget it, it’s not an option to stay like this. If I don’t meet a big boss, I’ll be finished.”
“As the saying goes, a man can bend and stretch, but a gentleman will not stand behind a dangerous wall.”
“As an excellent killer full of wisdom, you should be able to escape a thousand miles without hitting a single hit.”
“That’s a very good reason, go home!”
Xu Heng immediately stood up from the corner and decided to end his half-day trip to Ping An and return home.
The principle of "three musts but not one in addition" has been implemented very deeply.
He was dressed in a black robe and wore a hood to cover most of his face. He was not conspicuous in Ping'an Capital.
After all, there are many people here who are dressed similarly to him, either with hoods or masks.
However, there are also some men who are very cool. They actually shaved off a Mediterranean hairstyle and put a sky-high pigtail on the top of their head. They are really good at playing.
After observing for a while, Xu Heng sneaked out of the alley, lowered his head, and blended in with the crowd on the street as if nothing had happened.
Just listening to various unfamiliar words such as "Dah", "Yiku" and "How many floors does a bag of rice need to be carried" came from time to time in his ears, which made him quite confused.
Why are the question writers of the Department of Education so good? Even this kind of detail is so well grasped!
“Ya Zhi!” At this time, a woman's shy exclamation came from the street.
Then there was a burst of unbridled laughter from men.
“Hahaha, the exotic style of women here is really different.”
kindness?
What did I hear?
Fellow fellow!
Xu Heng's footsteps suddenly stopped and he looked around in surprise. Several men were leaning on the street, teasing a passing woman.
The person who just spoke was a skinny man, with a skinny face and bulging cheekbones.
A pair of slightly sunken triangular eyes, full of desire, were scanning the passing women furtively.
“I don’t have such an ugly fellow.”
Xu Heng almost turned around and left.
I am definitely not willing to just leave like this. Since there are people who speak the same language, I shouldn’t miss the opportunity.
But the problem is that both the enemy and ourselves are engaged in a full-scale battle.
Why are there still people who speak the local dialect and can be upright and unscrupulous in teasing other girls in this place?
“Is there a traitor in our side?”
He hesitated for a moment, then pretended to wander into a stall on the street, and slowly approached the group of people, keeping his ears open at all times.
Fortunately, the group of people were not just interested in teasing the girl. After a while, they finally talked about what Xu Heng was interested in.
"Third brother, why don't you leave? This place is so nice, why bother to retreat?"
"This is the boss's order. If you want to stay, just stay." "I really want to stay, but you are all gone. How can I support the stronghold here by myself?"
“The elders in the sect have already said that we should give up the Ping An Jing stronghold, so why are you still holding on?”
“Damn it, if I didn’t have this stronghold, I wouldn’t be able to survive here. How could I be as cool as I am now?”
“So hurry up and get rid of those things, and leave in five days. A full-scale war will begin soon. If it is later, I may not have a chance to leave.”
“Well, we managed to get rid of the spies from Gouchen Camp, but the spies from Tianlao Camp came again and killed more than half of our people, otherwise we wouldn’t have had to evacuate.”
“Okay, stop talking and get down to business.”
…
After the few people finished speaking, they turned around and walked into an inconspicuous hut on the street, closing the door.
Xu Heng couldn't follow him. This house looked like a private residence. It was difficult to break in. He could only find a wall...
He glanced left and right. There were townhouses and alleys separated by walls. There was no way to climb over the wall.
However, what the other party just said revealed a lot of information.
An elder in the church? Could this group of people be part of a cult?
Eh, no, this is a simulation of actual combat, and it cannot be linked to a cult.
But there is only one bare battalion commander left in the Gouchen camp. Is it because all the people were sent as spies and were tricked by them?
Good guy, this is my mortal enemy in Gouchenying.
but…
“Tianlao camp? Isn’t that the camp of the Hanlu Festival Master? They also have spies here?”
Xu Heng raised the corner of his mouth slightly, it would be easier to do things if he had his own people.
He narrowed his eyes slightly, glanced left and right, and decided not to go back in a hurry, but to take a look around again.
“Squeak!”
Not long after, after Xu Heng left, the wooden door of the hut opened slightly.
“Is the person gone?”
“Let’s go, hehe, he looks like an inexperienced person at first glance. He doesn’t even know how to pretend, so he dares to come to Ping An Jing.”
“He does seem to be a fool. Now that the bait has been released, let’s see if he can lead us to find the spies from Tianlao Camp.”
“Wait a minute, why do I feel something is wrong? Shouldn’t the Scorpion Army send such a stupid young man here?”
“Um, you’re not trying to catch us in reverse, are you?”
"No, if they knew our identity, why would they bother fishing? They would have had the chance to take action long ago."
“Also, let’s follow him and take a look first. If that kid is really a stupid young man who doesn’t understand anything, there might be some unexpected gains, and we might not have to be banned by the newcomers who are about to come.”
The wooden door slowly opened, and three figures walked out and followed Xu Heng in the direction he left earlier.
Not long after, after detouring through several alleys.
The three of them poked their heads out at the corner of an uninhabited alley.
“The people in Tianlao Camp are hiding so deep? No wonder we can’t find them.”
“Hey, where is that little guy? Running so fast?”
"No, he's not that fast. The alley is so deep, at least two hundred meters to the end. He can't disappear suddenly unless..."
The expressions of the three people suddenly changed, and they backed away suddenly, leaning against the wall, and staring around cautiously.
The only one who can suddenly disappear is the Xiaohan Festival Master, who is clearly someone sent by Gouchen Camp.
However, one second, two seconds, three seconds...
Until eight seconds have passed.
The alley was always silent and calm, with nothing out of the ordinary.
