"Well, I know all of that."

"As for some of the bandits you know, you can investigate them based on their whereabouts."

"But what means they will use against us, you must be careful and don't be easily fooled."

"Understood!" The crowd nodded.

Wu Zhi looked at everyone and said, "I'll give you three days to investigate now, and after three days, I will give you the results, if you don't investigate anything valuable, you just wait to be executed." ”

When everyone heard this, their faces changed instantly.

"There are three days to go, and you must do everything you can to investigate the bandits' tracks, or don't blame me for being ruthless." Wu Zhi looked at everyone and said word by word.

The soldiers nodded their heads, and they had to admire Wu Zhi's methods.

Wu Zhi smiled with satisfaction.

After confirming that there was nothing wrong with the mountain and that he didn't need to continue to worry about it, Wu Zhi took Wu Song down the mountain.

As a result, the brothers went halfway but something went wrong!

A pheasant flew from nowhere, and just hit Wu Zhi's back, screaming in pain:

"Oh my god! It hurts me to death! ”

"Brother, what's wrong with you?"

Wu Song, who heard the voice, hurriedly ran over to check the situation, and found that Wu Zhi's back was hit by a pheasant!

It's not a fatal injury, but there's no need to worry too much.

Wu Zhi dealt with it briefly and was out of the way, and was about to continue going down the mountain when he realized a new problem.

Pheasants are animals that don't take the initiative to attack people, so there must be someone behind the malicious manipulation, so what is the purpose of this guy?

"Brother, be careful, there is an enemy in the mountains eyeing us." Wu Zhi looked around and said vigilantly.

Hearing this, Wu Song was shocked, and hurriedly picked up the big knife beside him and prepared for battle.

"Brother, I'm fine, don't worry!" Wu Zhi comforted Wu Song.

Hearing Wu Zhi say this, Wu Song nodded, but the big knife in his hand did not relax.

There are enemies on the mountain?

Who is it?

Wu Zhi had doubts in his heart, but he didn't show it, but continued to walk down the mountain.

He walked fast, and he wanted to get out of the danger zone as soon as possible, but the current situation was more complicated, so it was not destined to be so fast.

After walking a few steps, he suddenly saw a forest, Wu Zhi's eyes lit up, and his heart was overjoyed, this place could be used as a hiding place.

"Brother, just rest here for a while!" Wu Song proposed.

"Hmm!"

Wu Zhi agreed, found a clean stone under the tree, and sat down.

After sitting down and resting for a while, Wu Song suddenly felt that something was staring at him, and his heart was furious, and he couldn't help but look back and saw a big snake hovering behind him, looking extremely fierce.

Wu Zhi was taken aback, this snake could actually climb a tree, no wonder he had been secretly observing himself just now.

If it hadn't been for the quick enough reaction, he would have been hit just now.

At this time, Wu Zhi didn't care much, and directly picked up the long sword on his waist and rushed over.

At this time, Wu Zhi had forgotten that he still had a bow and arrow on his body, and he also had a fire fold on his body.

Wu Song also hurriedly pulled out his big knife and rushed over.

The two brothers cooperated tacitly and quickly eliminated the big snake.

But at this time, Wu Zhi's face became pale, his forehead was covered with beads of sweat, and his breathing was very short.

Wu Song noticed the change in his brother, and hurriedly asked with concern: "Brother, are you okay?" What is wrong with you? ”

"Brother is fine."

Wu Zhi shook his head, a wry smile flashing across his face.

He had already consumed too much physical strength just now, and he was so weak at the moment that he couldn't even stand.

"Then brother, you take a break first, I'll help you get some game to eat, and we'll continue to hurry after eating."

Wu Zhi nodded.

Wu Song went to the neighborhood to find some dry firewood, then cut a few dead branches with a dagger, picked up some dry grass nearby and spread them on the ground, and then built a bonfire.

The bonfire rose and illuminated the figures of Wu Zhi and Wu Song.

Wu Song fixed the fire rack, then took out some dry food from his arms, handed it to Wu Zhi, and said, "Brother, you eat quickly, and we will go down the mountain later." ”

"Hmm!"

Wu Zhi nodded, took the dry food and devoured it.

At this time, he realized that his stomach was really hungry.

After eating the dry food, Wu Zhi regained some strength, looked around, and then said, "Brother, let's go!" ”

"Hmm!"

Wu Song didn't have any opinions.

So the brothers prepared to continue on their way.

However, after walking not far away, Wu Zhi suddenly stopped and looked around vigilantly.

"Brother, what's wrong with you?" Wu Song asked puzzled

Wu Zhi shook his head and said, "Brother, there seems to be something in the mountains following us this time, and I always feel that something is wrong, so we must speed up our journey so as not to encounter danger." ”

"Well, listen to my brother, let's speed up."

Wu Song nodded, and then the two brothers began to speed up, running all the way down the mountain, much faster than usual, and descended dozens of meters in one go.

In this way, the big snake behind did not catch up.

But although they came down safely, it was getting dark.

When night fell, it was pitch black in the mountains and forests, and it was impossible to see anything clearly.

Seeing this scene, Wu Zhi and Wu Song were very anxious, but they couldn't see anything in this mountain forest except for trees and leaves, and they didn't dare to leave easily, for fear of being attacked by snakes.

"Brother, what should I do?" Wu Song asked Wu Zhi, his heart full of anxiety.

"It's okay! I felt that there was light in front of me, and I thought there was a village or a farmer's house in front of me. Wu Zhi said.

He was a little excited, this was the first time he had felt a sense of belonging since he came to this mountain.

It's a good feeling.

"Oh, that's good!"

Wu Song nodded.

The two quickened their pace and ran quickly forward.

Wu Zhi felt that his strength had recovered somewhat, but it was very dark in the mountains and forests, and he couldn't see the road clearly, but he trusted his own judgment.

Finally, they came to a hut.

"Brother, this is it, let's live here!" Wu Song said.

"Hmm!"

Wu Zhi nodded.

When the brothers entered the thatched hut, they found it empty.

"How can there be no one here?" Wu Song was very strange and didn't understand what was going on.

"Maybe they didn't come because they had something to do." Wu Zhi guessed.

"It's possible!"

Wu Song nodded, then looked around again, and after making sure that there was no danger, he and Wu Zhi lay on the ground to rest.

But at this moment, the ground under him suddenly shook violently, and the thatched hut, which was already stormy, became crumbling, as if it would collapse anytime and anywhere!
