Chapter Eighty-Nine: The Strange Barracks

Early in the morning, when the sunlight completely penetrated the forest, Han Xiaoxi opened his tired eyes. Although he carried a mosquito repellent sachet, there were too many mosquitoes in the grass, and Han Xiaoxi fought with them for almost a night, until early in the morning, when he was so sleepy that he slept for two hours. At this time, the morning sun is rising.

The birds in the forest are singing very cheerfully, but you can hear from the sound that there are not many birds here, presumably because the soldiers stationed here all year round often catch birds and make tooth sacrifices.

Even so, it is still full of greenery and life.

Filling his stomach, Han Xiaoxi left the horse and baggage and went to the place he had visited last night alone.

Last night, no matter how he thought about it, he felt that something was wrong, no matter what, as long as it was a normal military camp, there would be candle lighting at night to prevent enemy sneak attacks, and there would be patrols patrolling around, and last night, he just met two dark sentinels in the dark, and the two dark sentinels knew a lot of inside information, as if they were deliberately told to him, so this made the sharp-minded Han Xiaoxi have to be suspicious.

During the day, he believed that he would be able to observe something.

Soon, getting closer and closer to the camp stationed in the first line of heaven, Han Xiaoxi slowed down and paid attention to concealing himself.

Han Xiaoxi took a few glances at the surrounding situation, and chose a big tree with lush foliage to hide.

In this way, it is also more convenient to observe.

Han Xiaoxi leaned against the trunk of the tree, picked up a branch and leaf in front of him, looked in the direction of the camp, and also saw the two sentries on the two big trees where he passed last night.

However, it's not so sure if these two sentinels are the same two people from last night.

The two sentries appeared to be napping, most likely due to the exhaustion of the night's stay.

At this time, the morning sun was already shining, but there was no one in the camp, not even the people who patrolled and stood guard.

That's weird, is it enough to rely on these two sentries alone?

What the hell is going on?

Han Xiaoxi decided that he would stay here until he figured out what the situation was.

......

When the sun rose overhead, Han Xiaoxi was hungry and thirsty, coupled with the exhaustion of his body, he had the intention of leaving for a while to fill his stomach and come back.

Just as they were about to make a move, the two sentries on the two large trees a few hundred meters ahead finally made a move, they climbed down the trees, and returned to the camp, and soon after two other sentries came out of the tent and went straight to their previous posts.

It looks like it's a shift change.

Han Xiaoxi found that whether it was the two sentinels before or the two sentinels now, they were all wearing the armor of the Eastern Progressive Kingdom, which was no problem, but Han Xiaoxi always felt weird......

Could it be that their patrol methods are different from Feng Yu's arrangement?

But....... There's no need to be so mysterious, right?

Unless there's something unsightly, or is it ..... Or is it because General Huang is not there that they are so vigilant?

No, if it was because General Huang was not there, they should have made a big fanfare, so as not to be speculated by the enemy about the real situation.

There is a problem, there must be a problem!

"Goo ......" his stomach suddenly screamed, breaking Han Xiaoxi's contemplation.

After thinking about it, Han Xiaoxi confirmed his initial suspicions.

"It looks like you won't find anything for a while, so you'll have to fill your stomach and come back." Thinking about it, Han Xiaoxi jumped from the big tree very carefully.

When I jumped, I didn't make much noise except for the sound of my feet stepping on the blades of grass.

Rushing back to the temporary resting place, Han Xiaoxi filled his stomach with water and flatbread.

The horses can forage for food nearby by themselves without Han Xiaoxi having to worry about it.

After resting for a while, Han Xiaoxi returned to the big tree and jumped up.

Nothing seems to have changed.

The whole camp was quieter in the afternoon, and the two sentries in front of them were napping with their backs to the trunks of trees.

Han Xiaoxi was also bored waiting, and the weather was hot, so he also took a nap after a while.

The strong sunlight spilled in through the branches and leaves, enveloping the upper half of Han Xiaoxi's body leaning on the trunk of the tree, reflecting his smooth face extremely softly, and the fine light and shadow constantly lingered and lingered on it.

Before you know it, time passes, and in the blink of an eye, it's time for the sun to set.

Han Xiaoxi woke up slowly.

"Oops, oh no, when is it......"

Han Han Xiaoxi held on to the trunk of the tree, looked over the treetops and looked west, only to see that the entire sky was quietly painted with a magnificent watercolor painting by the sunset.

"It's so beautiful......"

After a while, Han Xiaoxi, who was still unsatisfied, reluctantly looked away and looked at the camp in front of him very naturally.

"Strange, don't they need to practice?"

The camp was still silent, and no one even came out.

Seeing the sunset disappear with the sunset, Han Xiaoxi decided to sneak in tonight to have a look.

The strangeness of this camp had long since exceeded the normal range, which aroused his great curiosity.

When it was dark, Han Xiaoxi returned to the resting place to repair a little, and then planned to go to the camp to investigate quietly.

Tonight the stars and moon shine, and the cool evening breeze wafts among the trees.

Han Xiaoxi's vigorous figure gradually approached the big tree where the bright sentry was, but at this moment, a hand quietly stretched out behind him to cover his mouth tightly, and at the same time brought him behind him, Han Xiaoxi was restrained, he tried to resist, but found that the strength of the person behind him was greater than him, and he seemed to be very tall.

"Konishi, it's me, don't be afraid." A slightly familiar voice came into his ears, and Han Xiaoxi heard it, it turned out to be Chen Daniu.

Chen Daniu saw that Han Xiaoxi was no longer struggling, so he let go of his arm.

"Brother Niu, why are you? What are you doing here? Han Xiaoxi looked a little excited, because he hadn't seen Chen Da Niu since he went to the battlefield, and now, when he was about to take an adventure alone, Chen Da Niu appeared, which invisibly brought him a sense of security, so that he was no longer afraid to face it alone.

That's what friends are.

"I heard that General Feng asked you to come to inquire about the situation, I don't worry about you, so I'll come and take a look, how is it, nothing happened, right?"

Chen Daniu's dark eyes were hidden in the night, making it difficult to see.

"Well, something happened."

"What did you find?"

"I heard the sentry say that General Huang Lao is not in the barracks, and I haven't seen the other generals and soldiers, which feels very strange, I guess something big must have happened here." Han Xiaoxi said frankly, his tone was very serious.

"And what are you going to do here?"

"I want to sneak inside at night."

Chen Daniu suddenly shouted, "You can't go!" ”

Han Xiaoxi was stunned by his sudden roar: "Why? ”

"Xiaoxi, listen to me......" Chen Daniu grabbed Han Xiaoxi's two thin and thin arms and slowly approached.

"Ugh!" Han Xiaoxi was staring at him with a pair of moist eyes, waiting for his answer, when the back of the clinker suddenly had a sharp pain in his head, and his consciousness immediately fell into darkness.
