They back to Tong Ze inner city with covered in dust and see Qiu Lan looking out of the gate of He Qing Prince Palace with her neck stretch out with a look of hope in the distance.


Everyone can’t help but being surprised.


Rong Tian winks at Rong Hu and Rong Hu understands, he speed up his horse to meet Qiu Lan, “Why did you come out and wait? What happened?”


“Tell the Great King and Duke Ming, the man sent by Prince Yong Yi have arrived half an hour ago.”


The low voice can’t hide the excitement, “There is news of Lie Er! “


Rong Hu froze, his face full of vitality, suddenly filled with uncontrollable excitement and rapt.


***


Yong Yin, late at night.


Yu Lang holds Lie Er who had been drugged so much so that he’s so weak that he doesn’t have the strength to truss a chicken, comes out silently from the other exit of the tunnel.


After making sure that the surrounding area is still safe for the time being, he gently places the still-dreaming Lie Er on the flat mud ground and lowered himself, observing the movement of the village not far below the field of vision.


It was quite a surprise that Yong Yi was able to trace this place.


Facing the sudden and well-arranged round-up, even Yu Lang had to admit generously that there was still a talented person that barely get by in Yong Yin royal family.


Dozens of torches are burning under the night sky, disturbing the tranquility of the normally secluded village. The sound of applause and the fierce shaking of the fire light indicated that a comprehensive and rigorous search of the village has begun.


The number of visible enemies is at least 60 or 70, but Yu Lang, who is proficient in this way, is very clear that these 60 or 70 people who are shouting in the village are just a cover.


If Yong Yi could be smart enough to find him here, he must have sent another person to set up an ambush outside the village and in the dense forest before launching the manhunts.


Once the hunted thought they could escape the sight of the 60 or 70 people and escape from the periphery of the village, and they would immediately become the target of an ambush when they couldn’t resist their reckless actions and expose their position.


Yu Lang, who has been rolling on the tip of the knife almost all his life, certainly wouldn’t have made such a low-level mistake.


But he also knows that staying still is also a dead end.


The enemy was searching every corner of the village inch by inch, and when they entered the the small room where Yu Lang is used to hide, the entrance to the cellar covered by the carpet will have nothing to hide in the watertight search, that cellar is the place where Yu Lang placed Lie Er under house-arrest during this time.


Once the cellar is found, the tunnel leading to it is also in danger of being found.


The enemy will be able to drill through the winding, cold and damp tunnel and find them directly here.


Yu Lang knows that he doesn’t have much time.


“It’s Yong Yi.” The extremely low words drifted gently into his ears.


Yu Lang turns back.


Lie Er is still lying there, but he has been awakened by the fire and voices.


Yu Lang’s medicine prevented him from exerting strength, and it’s difficult to sit up and watch the movement, but he knows that Yong Yi has come.


The dark eyes rotating, showing excitement and joy.


The color of Yu Lang’s eyes flash through a trace of gloom, but his tone was still as gentle as water, he whispers, “Yes, Yong Yi is here.”


The clear and moist voice, also under the moon, with a gentle and affectionate smile, if it were not for the roaring sound of the fire on the other side, it will really give people the illusion that the lovers are intimate and whispering under the moon.


Lie Er closes his eyes and murmurs, “Sure enough it’s him, I know he will find me.” There’s a smile of relief on his lips, and then he opens his black eyes and looks at Yu Lang. “Are you surrounded?”


“Yes.”


Lie Er looks at him and asks calmly, “Are you going to kill me?” He and Yu Lang are also on the same line, and they understand the rules of this business.


In case of emergency, the last job before leaving is usually —— Killing.


There is no speak about human emotion, potential spies always live between life and death, only the cruel enough can live for a long time.


Seeing that Yu Lang doesn’t answer, Lie Er shows a careless smile, “At this time, you don’t have to be pretentious, I understand.”


Knowing that begging for mercy to a person like Yu Lang is useless, he simply closed his eyes and lay on his back gently to allowing him to be slaughtered.


He seems to let go of everything, with a quiet and calm expression, but his brain doesn’t dare to relax and nervously thinking.


Of course he’s not afraid of death.


The secret that he can find out from Yu Lang must not be hidden with his death.


Duke Ming has been trapped by Yu Lang and will be poisoned as long as he comes into contact with Wen Lan, the news must be spread in any way.


“We also know each other, I have one last request, you won’t be cruel to refuse, will you?” Lie Er opens his eyes, stretches his eyes upward, and stops on Yu Lang’s handsome face, “After killing me, don’t move or destroy my body. I’ve been running around all these years and I’m so tired that at least let me calm down after I die.”


While talking faintly, he draws his right hand to the side of his body and tries to gather the little strength left to flick the ground in the dark place that Yu Lang’s eyes can’t reach.


One stroke at a time, he controls his breath to move his strength to write—— “Duke Ming”, before the words “beware of Wen Lan” could be written, Yu Lang suddenly approaches, half-kneels beside Lie Er and pulls out the dagger.


Lie Er’s heart shrink sharply, he only impatient to end it, but hate that there’s nothing he can do, he can only stop the movement of his fingertips and sighs, “You haven’t said whether you would agree to my request.” There’s an expectant look in his eyes in order to delay time.


Yu Lang grins, “Unexpectedly, the foolish Lie Er is also so cute, how can I be willing to kill you?”


Lie Er stunned.


Yu Lang takes out his dagger and digs up beside Lie Er.


Lie Er begins to be puzzled and after seeing Yu Lang pulls out a large bag wrapped in animal skin from the ground, and suddenly feels amazed.


It’s obvious that there are escape tools that Yu Lang has prepared for a long time.


It’s not surprising that spies prepare multiple paths for themselves and it’s also not surprising that spies bury weapons and escape tools at the exit of the escape road.


It’s just that under the current circumstances, what’s the use of a few weapons and escape tools?


Lie Er wonders, watching Yu Lang’s every move.


Yu Lang opens the bag on the ground, revealing a lot of spy tools that Lie Er knew and a set of swarthy bow and arrows that look extremely precious. Yu Lang glances slightly at the many objects inside, only picks up a large skin bag filled with water and tie it to his waist, and then takes out a wrapping cloth from the bag and returns to Lie Er.


The thing was originally folded into a ball, that I can’t be seen what it was, Yu Lang takes it in his hand and unfolded it, gradually revealing the clue, it turned out to be a vest-like soft armor.


Yu Lang lifts the weak Lie Er, takes off his coat, and put on the dark black soft vest, he helps him to put on his coat again, takes a roll of cloth rope, the cicada still has a long tail to tie Lie Er on its shoulders and waist.


(t/n: the famous line ‘The mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind’, Yu Lang is the cicada).


“This phoenix armor can protect your vitals.” Yu Lang said.


There’s a big shock in Lie Er’s heart.


Phoenix Armor is famous in armor, just like the name of Xiao Zong swordsmanship that everyone who studies martial arts in the world knows it.


This mysterious and rare soft armor has been spread among the people in the world for many years but never know how it came from. Legend has it that a craftsman of Pu Rong used copper, silver, black iron, dual luminous sand, and peacock feathers made according to the secret method, it’s soft and tough, inaccessible to the sword, and is the holy product in armor.


Because the phoenix armor was too precious, it became a treasure vied by the monarchs of various countries, and finally disappeared in a burned palace.


Yu Lang also doesn’t know what methods he should use to save him, presumably to save his life in times of crisis.


When there was such a crisis, he put the phoenix armor on Lie Er.


There’s a burst of heat surged toward Lie Er’s heart and all of a sudden he couldn’t say anything after for a while, he says with clenching his teeth, “I don’t want your kindness, take it off.”


Yu Lang had expected that he would say this, like seeing an angry child, his lips raise and lightly i-don’t-take-offense smiles, he simply stopped making a sound and takes the bow and quiver out of the bag.


He half-kneels behind the bushes, concealing his figure and checking the movements of the enemy, with his bow and arrow at his visible feet.


Even at this time, his every move is still full of noble elegance and calmness, his side face that close to Lie Er’s eyes, shines a layer of brilliance that makes him even more handsome.


However, no matter how tenacious he is, the moment when he confronts Yong Yi’s troops, he can only end up desolate.


There is a great disparity in power.


And Yong Yi is also a smart man, he can find them here, there must be well arrangements all around.


Yu Lang, may not survive tonight.


Suddenly, Lie Er felt a sharp pain in his heart and could not help but persuade him, “What’s the point of being stubborn? Yu Lang, as long as you swear that you will no longer serve Li Kingdom and surrender immediately, I promise to let Yong Yi to let you go, how about I plead for you with my life to the Great King?”


Yu Lang heard the words, pulls out a disdainful smile at the corners of his lips, looks back and takes a deep look at Lie Er.


In the star-like deep and dark eyes, there’s no visible trembling fear, only jade-like gentle and steady hideously pride and calm.


At the sight of these eyes, Lie Er knows that persuasion is hopeless.


Just then, there’s a sudden uproar in the mountain village, and the sound of horseshoes sounded, there seem to be many people rode their horse into the village, and the fire flickered.


The cellar where Lie Er was imprisoned was found.


The sound of the horseshoe just now should be caused by Yong Yi rushing into the village to see for himself after receiving the news.


However, it takes a little time to find the cleverly hidden tunnel entrance and open the copper door of the entrance to find it.


Yu Lang carefully calculates at the bottom of his heart, waits patiently for a moment, suddenly let out a sneer and takes the bow and quiver near his feet in his hands.


The time for action finally arrived.


The cellar with traces of imprisonment was found, and Yong Yi who is eager to find Lie Er, is impossible not to go down and have a look in person in the first place.


As the commander of the hunting, Yong Yi goes down to the cellar and temporarily left the ambush in the forest. Once there’s a sudden change, the ability of the ambush to respond will be weakened.


Yu Lang knows very well that the only chance to escape is at hand.


Under the moonlit night, he unhesitatingly draws his bow and arrows, aiming at the four torches closest to the hillside, and the four powerful black arrows cut through the wind like a meteor rain and shot out like lightning.


These arrows passed vigorously through the small soil slopes to the distance outside the mountain village, and none of them lost their accuracy. In an instant, four great men fell down with the arrows. The two torches happen to fall right on the haystack that can be seen everywhere in the mountain village.


Lie Er sees his cold spine at the aside.


Every arrow passed through the throat, and the four men did not even let out a scream before they died.


This is the first time he has seen Yu Lang use a bow and arrow, and he never expect such an unimaginable horror.


Yu Lang is not only the best spy in the world, but also probably the best shooter in the world.


Shoo, shoo, shoo, shoo.


A gust of wind sounded and four arrows shot simultaneously. Yu Lang acts decisively and agilely, do something in one go, each time he pulls the four black arrows to put on the bowstring, his arrows are both ruthless and accurate, and he also occupy the advantage of the high slope, when the arrows released four people must be killed.


Lie Er’s pores raise seeing at his ferocious action, and in the blink of an eye he shot half a bag of arrows, not a single arrow wasted.


(t/n: 猛 ferocious a slang for awesome)


It all happened in an instant.


Yong Yi’s troops are also shocked by the evil arrows that fly from hell, all the torchbearers in the village near the hillside were shot to death by Yu Lang, the village shook in an uproar, shouting incessantly, mixed with the cries of ordinary people in the mountains.


Many torches falling on the haystack start the fire, which got out of hand with the help of the mountain wind at night.


The shadows of people shout and run in the light of fire, just like hell.
