Zhou Xianyu's ability to hold his breath is not something that a few patrol soldiers can find.

Therefore, it was not until he pierced the heart of the tall and thin soldier with a knife, took the other man's life, and opened his mouth to speak, that the other seven people could be regarded as discovering his existence.

Immediately, the patrolman who had just been talking and chatting with the tall and thin soldier saw that the situation was not right, and immediately took out something the thickness of his index finger and more than three inches long from his waist.

This thing is used to launch special firecrackers for help, and its formal name is actually an arrow, once ignited, the movement is not only special but also spread far away, and it is the most suitable for warning and rescue.

But the soldier had just held the arrow in his hand, and as soon as he lowered his head to look for the fire fold on his body, he felt a pain in his left hand.

When he looked up, he saw that his left hand, which was holding the arrow, had been cut off to the ground, and blood was splattering out along the broken wrist.

However, the soldier did not panic for long, because in the next moment, Zhou Xianyu had already stabbed him again through the back of his neck and spine, ending his life in an instant.

If it was in front of the gate of the village, such an empty place, and the torches were lit, Zhou Xianyu wanted to solve a few people in an instant, and not alarm the other people in the village, which was indeed a little difficult.

But in this dark forest, it was much simpler, so almost one of the eight people had already died.

And the last one, after Zhou Xianyu asked him to know everything about the stockade and the distribution of troops, he was killed by him.

Then Zhou Xian's imperial general, Xiao Jinxuan, came back, and Xiao Zhuxiong was very clever, and when he saw that there was no movement here, he rushed over.

It's not polite, he rubbed it vigorously, Xiao Zhuxiong's head, Zhou Xianyu's actions were rude, but a trace of pity flashed in his eyes, because through what he heard, the conversation between those people, it is estimated that the female bamboo bear will be fierce, I am afraid that it is already more auspicious.

Although the little bamboo bear is a beast in the mountains, in Zhou Xianyu's eyes, the other party is just like when he was a child, he is a poor orphan who is about to lose his mother, his heart is touched, his nose is a little sour, he coughed lightly, and then said:

"I have already snooped and found out that there is indeed a team in this stockade, and Xuan'er, you would never have imagined that they are here to mine and dig black iron."

As soon as she heard the word black iron, Xiao Jinxuan's expression immediately froze, because in the entire Great Zhou, there has always been only the personal soldiers of Prince Tai's Mansion, the black armor guard.

Because black iron is extremely rare and precious, after being made into armor, it is not only lighter than ordinary pig iron, but also more flexible and free for soldiers to wear and move.

Moreover, in terms of protection and resistance to the attack of weapons, black iron is far superior to pig iron.

Even Zhou Xianyu had done an experiment before, and he had always been able to cut through the armor of the Nine Dragons Cold Moon, but he couldn't instantly penetrate the black iron, unless he used full strength to cut it into two ends at once, so that the preciousness of the black iron could also be achieved.

As long as you wear this kind of armor made of iron, the probability of death of the soldiers will be reduced a lot, which can even have a decisive impact on the victory or defeat in a battle.

And Xiao Jinxuan looked at the camp below, and said in a cold voice:

"If it is really Zhou Xiantai below, who is ordering people to mine black iron ore wantonly, and does not report it to the imperial court, could it be that His Royal Highness the Prince, who has the intention of rebellion, forges weapons and armor without authorization, this is a capital crime of killing the head."

Hearing this, Zhou Xianyu, who was wiping the blood stains with leaves, immediately said with an evil smile:

"Xuan'er, it's not if, this is definitely a private arsenal of my second brother, because our Great Zhou Black Iron is extremely rare, when he formed the Black Iron Guard, he was still the King of Thailand, not the current prince, according to the ancestral system, there can only be three hundred guards, but he, the hundreds of people, are all wearing black iron armor and holding black iron weapons, so he has the title of Black Armor Guard."

After wiping it up and putting it away from the new one, Zhou Xianyu looked at the gate of the village, and continued in his mouth:

"At that time, this matter was shocked, and some people were afraid that the second brother's army was too strong, but my brother said that the black iron ore collected was very small, only enough for these three hundred people, and he really didn't expand the black armor guard later, and there was also Prime Minister Xue Cheng to support him, so after a long time, it was over, I really didn't expect that the second brother was a trick back then, and this black iron mine was monopolized by him for all these years, maybe Xuan'er, you are right, he is really possible, he has a rebellious heart."

In fact, Zhou Xianyu has not wasted long time after saying these words for a long time.

And he also needs to use some time to observe the terrain, and then deal with the remaining two patrolmen who have sensed that something is wrong and seem a little restless, and then he can sneak into the village to save the mother bamboo bear.

Signaled Xiao Jinxuan and Xiao Zhuxiong to stay where they were, and waited here to see that he had succeeded, and it was not too late to rush to the gate of the village, and then Zhou Xianyu's figure flashed, and disappeared into the darkness again like a ghost.

And Xiao Jinxuan didn't wait long, she was at the edge of the forest, and witnessed with her own eyes how Zhou Xianyu twisted the necks of the two patrolmen and dragged their bodies to the corner.

Therefore, Zhou Xianyu had already heard from the patrol soldiers that the place where the mountain beasts were held in the village, so he didn't waste much time, so he took Xiao Jinxuan and Xiao Zhuxiong to a clearing full of tall iron cages.

Because these iron cages are all in the stockade, and this group of people shoots all kinds of mountain beasts on weekdays, they are not afraid of them escaping once the cage is closed, so they don't send anyone to handle them.

After all, these animals, in their eyes, are just food on the table in the near future, and they are useless anyway, where they need to waste manpower here.

And the little bamboo bear actually smelled his mother's smell when he was far away, if it weren't for Zhou Xianyu who was afraid that it would run around indiscriminately and alarm the people in the village, and grabbed it to death, it is estimated that this little guy would have rushed here regardless of it.

Before it was put on the ground, the little bamboo bear whimpered a few times, and then landed on the ground with all four palms, and ran towards the iron cage.

When it arrived in front of an iron cage on the right side, it immediately stopped, and immediately stood up very anthropomorphic, and slapped the iron cage in front of it with two small forepaws, and in that cage, its mother, the female bamboo bear, was lying.

It's just that the female bamboo bear, as if dead, is quietly curled up in the innermost corner of the cage, no matter how the little bamboo bear whispers and calls it, it is still motionless.

And this will Xiao Jinxuan and Zhou Xianyu have also rushed over, looking at the little bamboo bear, who has already gnawed with their teeth, a huge cage made of black iron.

Even if blood flowed from the mouth that had been gnawed, Xiao Jinxuan still didn't stop, Xiao Jinxuan endured it for a long time, but the tears still flowed down instantly.

Although the little bamboo bear is a beast, the mother-son relationship between it and the female bamboo bear is, in Xiao Jinxuan's opinion, no worse than a human.

Looking at the little guy in front of him, desperately trying to save his mother, she has never felt what mother's love is since she was a child, and she almost lives an orphan life, and her heart is even more sour.

Then she hurriedly looked at Zhou Xianyu, who looked very bad, and then said in a choked voice:

"Xianyu, the female bamboo bear is still alive, if there is still a breath of air, you can think of a way, at least call them mother and son, you can have a chance to part, because this may be the last time the little guy will be reunited with his mother."

Seeing Xiao Jinxuan, she was already crying like a tearful person, but in fact, the corners of Zhou Xianyu's eyes were already slightly moist.

Looking at the little bamboo bear, the helpless appearance of the female bamboo bear calling for the female bamboo bear is really exactly the same as the situation when he lost his mother, in fact, in his eyes, he has always felt that the feelings between animals are actually no different from people.

So although Zhou Xianyu can also hunt, he has always been pregnant animals, animals with young beasts, he has always not touched them, gently helped Xiao Jinxuan, wiped away his tears, and said in a somewhat lonely voice:

"The female bamboo bear, I can still feel that she is still breathing, but it is estimated that it will not last long, and this cage is also made of black iron, I can't cut it without a key, so what I can do now is to stab the female bamboo bear who has been seriously injured, and maybe wake it up under the severe pain."

Zhou Xianyu's method is a bit of a poison against poison, but he knows that the mother bamboo bear has little time, in order to let the mother and son meet before life and death, Xiao Jinxuan's eyes flashed with determination, and said that he also agreed to this method.

Knowing that the female bamboo bear couldn't last long, Zhou Xianyu didn't hesitate, and immediately pulled it out, and as soon as he used his wrist, he stabbed the accurate one on the leg of the female bamboo bear in the cage in an instant.

And the little bamboo bear that was still whimpering and gnawing on the iron cage was stabbing Zhou Xianyu with a knife, and after it was stunned for a while, its expression was immediately full of anger.

But at this moment, suddenly in the cage, there was a low and weak roar of the female bamboo bear, and the little bamboo bear, which had already run to Zhou Xianyu's side, was about to open its mouth to bite, and after hearing this sound, it immediately stopped moving, and ran back to the iron cage with joy.

And the female bamboo bear who watched this, as Zhou Xianyu expected, under the severe pain, it had almost bled and fainted, but its consciousness recovered a lot under the stimulation of pain.

And at this time, the female bamboo bear has staggered to her feet, looking at the outside of the iron cage, and is struggling to stretch her little forepaw into the cage.

Her beloved young son was in front of her, and the female bamboo bear wanted to walk to the edge of the cage when she raised her legs, but she was too weak now to stand up.

So after taking half a step, she softened her forehand and fell heavily on the ground again, and after a long time, she struggled to stand up again.

And no matter how hard it fell, that pair of eyes, from beginning to end, stayed tightly on the little bamboo bear's body, as if the female bamboo bear herself also realized that her time was running out.

And the opportunity for it to accompany the little bamboo bear, there is only the time left in front of it, and when its physical strength is exhausted, it knows that its child will become a lonely beast in the bamboo forest in the mountains, not only lonely, but also become food in the mouths of other beasts.

Immediately, the eyes of the female bamboo bear overflowed with a little tear stain, because the body was unable to stand up, it could only look at the little bamboo bear, and the mouth let out a roar full of reluctance and worry, and also stretched out the forepaw with difficulty, as much as possible to touch, the little bamboo bear stretched into the iron cage, that still looks, very immature little paws.
