Chapter 158: Smile

The little soldier was ordered to walk quickly towards the alley that everyone had just entered and exited with unobtrusive movements. www.biquge.info Because the large army was in a hurry to leave this place at this time, it was only for the curiosity of Captain Zhang that the soldiers who were sent here to explore the truth actually had resentment in their hearts, but they had just joined the army, and they were newly assigned to this Captain Zhang's subordinates, so naturally there was no room for bargaining.

Because I didn't see what was happening, I only heard a slightly sharp knock, and after a dull crash, it seemed that the surroundings began to commotion. Therefore, the soldier who came to investigate alone was very worried about his own safety, and tremblingly approached the place where the captain wanted to investigate by himself.

But because he is smart and clever, he naturally will not make his own decision to escape, of course, this is the best way to save his life at this time, but if he returns empty-handed like this, even if he can make up a lie to avoid it for a while, I am afraid that it will be difficult to escape the fate of being exposed when he investigates here again, so if he does not have some accurate information, this little soldier does not dare to go back like this.

Tiptoeing close to the corner where the miscellaneous items were piled up, just as he was about to arrive, the little soldier stopped, looked around for a while, and after making sure that the commotion in the courtyard of the tall mansion in the distance had subsided, he snickered and took out the fire fold hidden in his arms.

Because of this general's order, ordinary soldiers were forbidden to carry firearms, let alone light fires and carry torches, and at most a group of men and horses could carry a lantern to light the way. This little soldier knew in his heart that this was probably because the leader was not paying attention to igniting the surrounding debris in order to prevent everyone from carrying too much fire, and the surrounding area was full of old men with official positions, if one accidentally set their mansion on fire, then not to mention that the person who missed the move would be dealt with strictly, even their head Captain Zhang would not be able to escape the blame, let alone want to be promoted and make a fortune.

But this little soldier didn't care about this, besides, he was the youngest in the team, and he was the latest to come in. He had long expected that he would probably be sent by such a person to work hard and tiring or alone. It's not that he wants to make a fire to keep warm, it's just that if there is nothing to light in the dark night when he can't see his fingers, isn't he waiting to be beaten by a black stick?

Seeing that the surroundings seemed to be quiet, and no one was looking at the place, the little soldier moved from where he was standing to some of the dark, cave-like alleys. Cover the fire fold with your body and hands, and slowly blow up the core that has just been pulled out and there is only a spark. And he stretched out his hand and handed the source of fire forward, firstly to see what was in it, and to go back for a while, and secondly, to hide the light of the fire fold in this well-covered alley on all sides.

Whether the flame was seen by the people in the mansion opposite, or by the people in his own ranks, he could not eat and walk. Therefore, he is particularly cautious in his movements.

And when looking at the dark and deep alleys, even if there is firelight, the little soldier still feels scared. The little soldier who stared at him with trembling eyes to observe what was inside actually didn't realize that his spirit at the moment had been tense to the point where the grass and trees were all soldiers.

As he stretched the flame more and more inward, the tension in his nerves drove him mad. And because the light of the fire source is too small, it can only illuminate the surrounding area less than two steps, so that some things that can still see the outline clearly, under the light of the fire, the dark part becomes more and more difficult to distinguish, if it is not close to the fire source, it is impossible to distinguish the inside of it.

At this moment, the little soldier seemed to have discovered something unusual, although there were some miscellaneous items piled up in this corner, the placement of things seemed to be too messy, and this mess had a feeling that it could block the prying eyes of outsiders. And the state of the ground where there are no gaps to stand on seems to be less like a simple attempt to put more things, but more like a way to prevent people from going inside to find out. Driven by curiosity, the soldier was going to crouch down to inspect the things that were lying out of order behind a large number of debris. Just as the little soldier raised his hand to lift the old cloth, he didn't think that the hand he had just stretched out, a black shadow grazed his shoulder and flew out.

The sudden change frightened the little soldier before he had time to adjust his posture, and the whole person fell down.

He didn't have time to see what was flying out of the corner with his cheek, but he only remembered to pick up the fire that he had thrown on the ground and was about to be extinguished, and left the dark corner with the same speed and fled in the direction where the army had disappeared.

Li Jin looked at the frightened little soldier who crawled and disappeared outside under the faint firelight outside, and secretly admired the guard next to him who was younger than himself.

"How did you find out that there was a cat here?" Although Li Jin knew that there were no patrols around Bacheng, at this time, Li Jin still tried his best to lower his voice and said in a low voice beside Su Jing.

"It's just our luck, if it weren't for hiding here, and there is still warm felt here, probably there wouldn't be such a cute little creature staying here, right? After Su Jing finished speaking, he seemed to shrug his shoulders habitually. Although Li Jin couldn't see the expressions of the two sides in this too dark place, he also felt that the relationship between the two was really good.

"Alright, let's get out of here, or if there is another team of patrol people in a while, we will probably be caught in the urn." ”

Su Jing said as he cleaned up the pile of debris around him and made a thin slit that could be entered and exited.

When he came outside, Li Jin saw that the corners of Su Jing's mouth seemed to have a satisfied smile on the child's lips, which seemed to be a typical sign of a successful prank.

Li Jin was puzzled, the current situation of the two of them was not completely off the line, and it was estimated that they would still have their own gatehouse to pass in a while. Li Jin couldn't figure out what would be happy at this time to make Su Jing smile like this.

And at this time, the moon revealed the cheeks that had been hidden behind the clouds, and the cold silver glow spread all over the ground, and the picture of the cool and soft light surrounding Su Jing, especially the unpredictable smile hanging on the corner of Su Jing's mouth, made Li Jin shake his mind for a moment, it seemed to be the goblin in the world that was charmed in the book, dexterous but with a slight sense of malice.

"What's wrong? What did you find?" Li Jin almost subconsciously asked the doubts in his heart.
