Half an hour later, dawn was approaching, and the darkness of the night still covered the land, and there was silence around the camp, and a few nightingales chirped like icicles into the thick cold mist.

Huang Yun, Prince You, and Yu Lan fell asleep again, but Ji Zheng suddenly opened his eyes slightly, slowly raised his head, he glanced left and right, and saw that the guards guarding both sides were sleepy, their eyes were blurred, although they were still staring at a few people tied to the stake, but the spirit was obviously no longer controllable. Ji Zheng slowly turned his head, looked at Winter Tooth, and gently hit the stake behind him with the back of his head.

Although Winter Tooth was not asleep, he was also sleepy-eyed, he found that Ji Zheng seemed to be looking at him, so he also turned his head to look, the two looked at each other, Ji Zheng suddenly frowned, his eyes were like a torch, and he stared at Winter Tooth hard. Winter Ya woke up instantly, and he knew that Ji Zheng was delivering a message to him.

Ji Zheng's hands were tied behind the stake, and he kept twisting his wrists, apparently instructing Winter Ya to focus his attention on his hands. Winter Ya took a closer look and found that Ji Zheng seemed to be holding something like a piece of wood in his hand, what was that? What is he going to do?

Wintertooth wondered in his heart, he had to make sure. So, Dongya followed and turned his wrist, then pointed to Ji Zheng's hand, making a puzzled look, and then Ji Zheng nodded in confirmation. It turned out that Ji Zheng had a plan, and the key to the plan was the wooden block in his hand.

Then, Ji Zheng tilted his eyes back again, and kept flicking his wrist to the side, and then he raised his head, his eyes fixed on the brazier beside Winter Tooth.

After a silent exchange, Winter Tooth guessed if Ji Zheng wanted him to catch the piece of wood and throw it into the brazier, but what was the point of doing so? He couldn't confirm it, but judging from Ji Zheng's movements and eyes, it seemed to be like this.

So Winter Tooth imitated Ji Zheng's movements, and demonstrated the meaning of his understanding, Ji Zheng nodded to confirm after reading it, for the sake of insurance, Winter Tooth made another comparison, Ji Zheng nodded vigorously, and gave a very clear response. Winter Ya was finally convinced that Ji Zheng wanted him to throw the wooden block into the brazier accurately.

Dongya didn't know why Ji Zheng did this, but he knew that it must be very important, and he had to succeed the first time. Suddenly, Winter Ya was so nervous that she could almost hear her heart pounding.

Winter Tooth recalls following his father as a child hunting in the mountains, and he learned to use the bow as a child, so it was not difficult for him to throw a piece of wood into a brazier close at hand, even with his hands tied behind his back. However, at this time, he was so nervous that he could barely breathe, because this time the stakes were high, but there was only one chance. If he can succeed, Ji Zheng may be able to save them from escaping together, but once he misses, he may lose everything and have no power to return to heaven.

Dongya raised his head, his nervous expression was completely devoid of confidence, he didn't know if he could succeed, let alone dare to take on such a heavy responsibility.

Without words, Ji Zheng stared at him, his eyes full of unwavering trust, and he suddenly remembered the first time he saw this look, when he and Ji Zheng were lying in ambush on the wall, fighting the assassins to the death in order to protect Yiyang Village. That night, for the first time, he saw a living person die tragically in front of him, and he was so frightened that the six gods were gone, and Ji Zheng encouraged him with the same eyes and trusted him.

Thinking of this, Winter Ya took a deep breath and nodded vigorously towards Ji Zheng.

After the two of them were ready, Ji Zheng gently swung his wrist, and after adjusting the angle, he saw his wrist shake and throw the wooden block towards Winter Tooth, who grabbed the piece of wood.

The first step is completed by catching the block. Winter Tooth took another deep breath, he stabilized his emotions, adjusted the angle, and after a few tests, Winter Tooth thought horizontally, hooked his wrist upward, and saw the wooden block fly out of his hand, drawing a steep arc in the air, and then falling into the brazier accurately.

Winter Ya was ecstatic, and Ji Zheng also clenched his hands into fists, excited. The two of them didn't make any sound during the whole process, the four guards were still confused, and Prince You, Huang Yun and Yu Lan were still asleep. The wood block burned in the brazier, and in an instant, green smoke rose up, and a thick fragrance slowly spread in the room, and the eyes of the four guards became more and more misty.

It turned out that the wooden block was a piece of snake thorn incense, the night before the expedition, Hana had given Ji Zheng a box of snake thorn incense, which was originally just for sleeping, but Ji Zheng missed Hana, so he took out the spice from the box and always carried it in his arms.

At this time, the fragrance is getting stronger and stronger, and the high concentration of snake thorn incense has a strong hypnotic effect, if a person is already sleepy, it is even more difficult to resist the call of sweet dreams, even if the strong willpower is difficult to resist.

Ji Zheng stared at the guard in front of him, only to see that the guard was looking left and right, with a slightly puzzled expression, as if he was aware of this intoxicating fragrance, he sniffed a few times, his eyes became even more confused, he barely struggled a few times, and soon fell asleep with his weapon.

Suddenly, there was a muffled sound behind him, Ji Zheng turned his head with difficulty, and saw that the guards behind him fell to the ground and fell asleep, and then the other two guards also sat on the ground and fell asleep.

Ji Zheng also felt a strong sleepiness, he bit the tip of his tongue with his teeth, trying to stay awake, and then he leaned over to Winter Ya with all his strength, tilted his neck and whispered to Dong Ya: "Hairpin, pull my hairpin off." ”

Winter Fang stretched out his neck hard, and finally bit the hairpin on Ji Zheng's head and bit it off.

Ji Zheng lowered his voice and said to Winter Tooth, "Throw it to me." ”

Winter Ya turned his neck vigorously and threw the hairpin towards Ji Zheng, Ji Zheng grabbed it, but failed to catch it, and the hairpin fell to the ground, fortunately, it was not far from Ji Zheng. Ji Zheng hooked the hairpin with difficulty with his foot, and then he curled up, bent his calves and sent the hairpin up, and finally grabbed the hairpin after a few attempts.

Seeing that this hairpin was much thicker than an ordinary hairpin, Ji Zheng pinched the tail of the hairpin, turned it slightly, and then pulled outward, and actually pulled out a very thin double-edged ice spike from this hairpin.

It turned out that a year ago, Ji Zheng was tied up by the Yue swordsman Qingmen and taken to Xingyue Hall, when he used the tip of the hairpin to pick for most of the day before he barely broke the rope that tied his hand. After arriving in Gusu, Ji Zheng felt that the hairpin could actually be used as a weapon, and it would be better if it could be sharper, so he asked the craftsman to make this hairpin.

Ji Zheng used this double-edged ice thorn to cut the rope a few times, and the rope that was originally tightly bound to his wrist was broken in two, and after his hands broke free, Ji Zheng easily cut the rope that was tied to his body.

At this time, the guards in the tent were still asleep, completely oblivious to what was happening in front of them. Ji Zheng pinched his steps and walked behind the guard who was sleeping with a weapon, and slowly wrapped one hand around his neck, suddenly, Ji Zheng covered the guard's mouth hard, and pierced the ice spike into his neck, and the guard struggled twice and died. Ji Zheng held the guard and gently placed it on the ground. Subsequently, Ji Zheng concocted the same method and quietly assassinated the other three guards one by one.

The sky began to turn white, and there was still silence all around, and the sentries outside the tent did not notice any suspicious noise, and no one knew that the tent had been turned upside down.

Ji Zheng cut the rope from Dongya's body, and whispered to Dongya: "Untie them, you must cover their mouths tightly before waking them up, and be sure to wait until they are sober before letting go." ”

"Hmm."

Then, Ji Zheng turned around and lightly ripped off the clothes of the four guards.

"Brother Ji Zheng."

Ji Zheng heard Dongya calling him, turned his head to look, and saw Dongya looking at him helplessly.

"What's wrong?"

Dongya's face was embarrassed, "Brother Ji Zheng, the prince is too sleepy to wake up." ”

"Slap him!" Ji Zheng gestured with his hand.

"Huh? This ......"

Winter Tooth trembled and didn't dare to start, but forced by the situation, Winter Tooth thought sideways, covered the prince's mouth with one hand, and gently patted his face with the other, but after a few pats, the prince still slept like a puddle of mud.

Ji Zheng was so anxious that he had to come over in person, cover the mouth of the prince's friend, and slap him hard. Prince You snorted in a daze, but still didn't mean to wake up.

Ji Zheng was helpless, so he asked Dongya to pull out a finger of Prince You, and then pierced the fingertips with ice thorns, Prince You was pricked like this, and his teeth were so painful that he cracked his mouth, and he wanted to scream out in his mouth, but fortunately, Ji Zheng covered it tightly, so he didn't make a sound.

At this time, the prince was completely awake, he saw that Ji Zheng had broken free, and several guards had also fallen to the ground and died, and immediately said excitedly: "Ji! ……”

Ji Zheng hurriedly covered his mouth again, shushed out, and said softly: "There are still many people outside, don't make a noise!" ”

Prince You nodded.

So, Ji Zheng cut the rope on the prince's body, and then used the same method to wake up Huang Yun and Yu Lan. Ji Zheng handed the guard's clothes to the four of them and asked them to change into them. Prince You, Huang Yun, and Yu Lan didn't say a word, they began to change clothes, and Dongya walked up to Ji Zheng with the guard's clothes and said, "Brother Ji Zheng, you can wear this one." ”

Ji Zheng shook his head and said, "It's okay, I have my own way." ”

When the prince heard the conversation between the two, he changed his clothes and whispered: "Brother Ji, you should wear this dress, if you save me, you will save Wu Guo!" When I return to China, I will definitely let my father reward you heavily, and I will appoint you as a general! Ji Aiqing! You can't do anything right now! ”

Dongya also chimed in: "Yes, Brother Ji Zheng, your safety is more important. ”

"That's right, this little brother said so, you should change your clothes quickly, and I will reward this little brother well when I go back."

Ji Zheng shook his head, "Dongya is my brother, his safety is as important, you guys hurry up and change your clothes, it's almost dawn, we don't have much time left." ”

"But, Brother Ji Zheng ......"

"Change!" Ji Zheng said in a commanding tone.

"Hmmm......"

After the four of them changed their clothes, Ji Zheng picked up two short swords from the ground and handed one of them to Yu Lan, making him the queen of his palace. Then, Ji Zheng gently cut through the tent, and after confirming that it was safe, he rushed out of the gap.

Taking advantage of the last night, Ji Zheng led the four of them to hide their figures, dodging patrols and bright firelight, and quietly approached the camp fence.

"What the hell!" Suddenly, a voice came from behind him.

Ji Zheng hurriedly whispered to Winter Tooth: "Quick! Push me! ”

Although Dongya didn't know why Ji Zheng wanted him to do this, he didn't have time to think about it, and hurriedly pushed Ji Zheng's back.

Ji Zheng staggered forward half a step forward and shouted in a rough voice: "Hurry up!" Pee and pee so rubbing. ”

"What's going on?" It turned out that the patrol team discovered Ji Zheng and his party.

Ji Zheng lowered his voice and said to Dongya: "Turn around, move your mouth, don't speak." ”

Winter Tooth hurriedly did so.

"The spy who just caught, he has to pee, a few of us escort him out to pee, damn, I don't let people sleep well early in the morning." Ji Zheng shouted at the patrol.

"Let's go."

The patrol responded and left.

Ji Zheng whispered to the four of them: "Let's go, it's not far." ”

The prince looked frightened, "Well, quick! Fast! It scared the hell out of me. ”

The five men came to the fence on the side of the camp and took advantage of the interval between the patrols to climb out of the camp. At this time, the morning light was faint, the breeze was slightly cold, and the five people bypassed the empty field of confrontation between the two armies, ran to the camp of the Wu army, and finally escaped.

"Stop! How many of you are there?! The Wu guards questioned the five of them.

Huang Yun scolded: "I'm Huang Yun! You guys don't keep your eyes open to see who's back! Don't come and greet it yet! ”

Several guards looked at each other, and saw that the five people were all familiar.

"It's General Huang and the Crown Prince, right?"

"Right? Resemble! You can't go wrong. ”

"Yes! That's it! General Huang! Prince! General Yu! And Ji joined the army and his follower! ”

"That's right! Can't be wrong! That's them! ”

Several guards muttered.

An older guard shouted, "Quick! Welcome General Huang and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince! ”

Immediately afterwards, a group of Wu soldiers rushed out of the camp and gathered the five people back to the camp.

Finally safe, the prince could no longer hold back his tears, and shouted excitedly: "I'm back!" Whining! I'm finally back! ”

Huang Yun finally relaxed and said, "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is blessed with all the heavens!" Jiren has his own natural appearance! ”

The prince walked up to Ji Zheng and patted Ji Zheng's shoulder hard, "Ji Aiqing!" Thanks to you! I knew you were different! I knew you could make a difference! I knew you could save me! You can rest assured! When you go back, I will let my father make you a general! ”

Ji Zheng saluted and said: "Thank you for the wrong love of His Royal Highness the Prince." ”

Huang Yun squinted at Ji Zheng, pouted and snorted.

At this moment, there was a sudden sound of horses' hooves outside the camp.

"Report! Major military situation! 100,000 urgent! ”

Cao Zu galloped from outside the camp, and when he saw Ji Zheng, he immediately dismounted and saluted, and hurriedly reported: "Ji joins the army!" Spotted a major military situation! 100,000 urgent! ”
