C130 (2/2)

After discussing with Xiaoqing, he immediately decided to go save her. That night, he scouted everywhere for news of the hundred man team and quietly followed behind.

Zhang Long was one of the people who shared the same thoughts as them. The day Zhang Long learned that these people had been captured, he had been secretly observing them, hoping to find a suitable opportunity to rescue them. However, he couldn't do anything about it, so he had to find a spy from the King's Manor in Hechang County and ask him to pass a message to Zhao Wei, asking him to send someone over to help.

Now that three days had passed, most likely the news had reached Zhao Wei. If they counted the distance they had traveled, the reinforcements should have arrived by now.

Furthermore, they were getting closer and closer to the Azure Province where the Duke Bao Palace was located. If there were no reinforcements, even if he was alone, he would have to bite the bullet and charge forward.

That night, Zhang Long disguised himself and put on a set of night clothes before heading to the military camp to inquire about the situation.

Although there were not many people in the group, they were still Ye Feian's elites. Thus, they could walk, sit, and rest. The group of warriors was locked in a simple cage, and both cages were filled to the brim.

The night watchmen changed shifts every four hours. There were a total of three people in the first group. The rest of the people were also standing guard in the surrounding area. Although everyone thought that it was impossible for someone to come to their rescue, there were still sentries under their command just to be on the safe side.

After figuring out these joints, Zhang Long left the military camp and returned to the dilapidated temple that he was temporarily staying in.

However, just as he arrived at the entrance of the temple, Zhang Long vaguely saw a bit of fire inside. It seemed that someone had also arrived at the temple while he was away.

Clutching the steel knife tied around his waist, Zhang Long sneaked his way to the entrance of the dilapidated temple. At this time, the sky was dark and there was no moonlight. Coupled with Zhang Long's night clothes, the people in the broken temple did not notice him.

He thought to himself that in order to not reveal his whereabouts, if the people in the broken temple had any evil intentions, he would go up and kill him.

Who would have thought that Zhang Long would accidentally step on a dried up branch in front of the temple's entrance, and with a creak, it entered the ears of the people inside the temple.

Zhang Long took advantage of the light from the broken temple and saw that the man was holding a steel knife. He knew that the man was not easy to deal with, so he stepped into the temple and chopped down at the man's head.

However, that person also reacted. He immediately blocked Zhang Long's saber, took advantage of that to twist his body, and moved behind Zhang Long. He borrowed the momentum of the blade to slash towards Zhang Long's ribs.

Upon seeing this, Zhang Long rolled to the side like a lazy donkey, barely dodging the blade.

Seeing that the other party was skilled, he didn't dare to be careless.

As the two of them faced off, the moon peeked its head out from the dark clouds. Under the bright moonlight and the light from the ruined temple, their figures could be seen in the future.

Seeing that person's appearance, Zhang Long could not help but exclaim: ”That Lu Tu!”
