When that person heard this, he felt a sense of nervousness in his heart.

"Who are you!" he shouted.

It turned out to be Xue Kaishan.

Xue Kaishan and Xiaoqing had received the news and also came to find him. Seeing a dilapidated temple not too far away, they decided to rest here.

Since Xue Kaishan's injuries had yet to heal, Xiaoqing went alone to check out the situation. Therefore, there was only Xue Kai Shan in this broken temple. Otherwise, if Xiaoqing was here, she could have taken Zhang Long's life with one arrow.

Upon seeing this, Zhang Long immediately took off his mask and revealed his true face. The two of them had met before when Luo Lingwei sent a messenger to the Kurman tribe, so Xue Kaishan also knew Zhang Long.

"Brother Zhang." Xue Kaishan was somewhat surprised. He had heard from Xiaoqing that one of the people mentioned was Zhang Long.

The two of them realized it was a misunderstanding, so they both put down their sabers and sat down.

Zhang Long asked about their encounters these days. Xue Kaishan told him about how they escaped from the dark shop, how they hid in the mountains from the officials, and so on.

As Zhang Long heard this, he broke out in a cold sweat for the two of them. If the two of them were to take even one wrong step, they would be doomed to never return. At the same time, he was also deeply moved by Xiaoqing's growth. When he first met her, he only thought that she was a clever little maid by Luo Lingwei's side.

Just as the two of them were chatting casually, the sound of footsteps came from outside the temple. The two of them subconsciously touched the weapons beside them, but upon seeing Xiaoqing, they heaved a sigh of relief.

Xiaoqing originally thought that Xue Kaishan was the only one in this broken temple, but she didn't think that she would be able to see Zhang Long clad in black. She couldn't help but feel surprised.

"Big brother Zhang Long." Xiaoqing quickly took two steps forward and bowed in front of Zhang Long, "How did brother Zhang Long find this place?"

When Zhang Long first saw Xiaoqing, he felt a bit happy. But when he thought about how she secretly ran out and even caused the whole mansion to go into chaos, Luo Lingwei became depressed, but she couldn't help but sulk in her heart.

Xiaoqing was very quick-witted, and when she saw the uncertainty on his face, she knew that Zhang Long was angry at her for secretly running away. As such, he smiled as he went forward to coax Zhang Long.

Zhang Long wasn't very angry to begin with. Furthermore, Xiaoqing had lost contact with him for many days, so everyone was very concerned about her.

"Do you know how worried the Empress was about you when you snuck out this time?" At this moment, Zhang Long was like a woman with a long tongue as he scolded Xiaoqing, causing her to feel extremely ashamed.

However, Xiaoqing felt a warm feeling in her heart at this moment. Thus, she did not say anything and allowed Zhang Long to speak.

"Alright, Brother Zhang. It's already late at night. Let's rest early. We still have to think of a way to save them tomorrow." Seeing this, Xue Kaishan hurriedly went to smooth things over.

Only then did the three of them remember to rest.

After a night had passed, the three of them set out again, following behind the troop and waiting for Zhao Wei's reinforcements.

When night fell again, Zhao Wei's reinforcements successfully reunited with the three following the mark Zhang Long left.

The person Zhao Wei sent to help Zhang Long was a five man team. They even brought a letter from Zhao Wei.

Zhang Long was still wondering why Zhao Wei only sent five people to assist him, but after he finished reading the letter, he understood Zhao Wei's plan and couldn't help but secretly praise him.

It turned out that, due to the special circumstances, they could not fight against these officers and soldiers head-on. As a result, they could not send a large group of people, and could only find a small group of people.

Therefore, the soldiers could not count on them, so they went to find a few friends from Jianghu to ask for help.

Amongst these people, the skinny one was called Seven Fields. He was a great bandit and was very good at disguising himself.

The tall one was called Ming Gui, and he was also a thief. With his superb unlocking skills, he had even stolen items from the palace.

Of the remaining three brothers, one of them was Jin Hua, who was an expert in the use of knockout drugs. The other two brothers were called Du Dalang and the second one was called Du Xiaodao.

After knowing the identities of the five people, Zhang Long pondered for a moment and knew how to save them. After discussing it for more than an hour, they finally came to a decision and decided to make their move that night.

That night, the sky turned dark. The personal guards of the palace were methodically unaware of the post. After tonight, they could return to the Azure Province tomorrow evening and the mission could be considered to have been completed.

After dark, the commander ordered the cooking. When they saw the smoke rising, they knew the opportunity had come.

At this moment, several people carried out the deer they had hunted during the day. Seven Fields and Ming Gui each carried a deer and walked towards the direction of the soldiers with smiles on their faces.

A moment later, there was an angry shout, and a sentry walked over, pointing a spear at the two of them.

"Where did you two come from?!"

"This... After this victory, "scared out of his wits", Ming Gui threw the deer on his shoulder onto the ground, turned around and was about to run away, but another sentry pointed a spear at him and forced him back into place.

As for Seven Fields, he was "scared out of his wits".

"Army …" "Master, we are hunters in the vicinity. We are planning to take the things that we have hunted home." Seven Fields said timidly.

When the soldier saw that the two of them were dressed up and did not look like they were lying, he nodded and said to the two of them, "Alright, you two, put down these two deer. You can leave now!"

When Seven Fields heard this, he panicked.

"Army lord, we brothers spent a lot of effort to hunt this deer down. This …"

When the soldier heard Seven Fields' words, he immediately stared and said: "What? You still want to bargain? Is it not worth it to exchange the lives of two beasts for your lives? "

"It's worth it." Ming Gui immediately pulled at Seven Fields and then said to the two soldiers, "This little one will leave now. This little one will leave now."

Seven Fields still wanted to say something, but Mizar whispered: "Let them have it. We've fought quite a bit these past two days and we haven't moved out yet. We've already given these two to them."

This sentence was "coincidentally" heard by another soldier.

"Wait a moment!" The soldier stopped the two and pointed his spear at Guiyi. "What did you just say?"

Ming Gui smiled and said, "Nothing much, sir. You must have overheard it."

The soldier looked at Ming Gui and sneered, "Do you think I'm deaf? Did you just say that you guys still haven't moved all of these prey down? "

"No …." "No …" Ming Gui stammered, his eyes darting around, looking extremely anxious.

The soldier knew that there was a problem with the man's words. Annoyed, he walked up to Ming Gui and gave him a slap.

"You're still not telling the truth! If you don't tell me the truth, I'll kill you! " The soldier said fiercely.

Once Seven Fields heard this, he said with a sad face: "Two sirs, that thing is on the mountain. There are still several deer!"
