Tianming and Li Mumeng were stunned when they saw this scene, and even Quexie who was helping was also confused.

This was obviously something someone left here specifically as a warning, but no one noticed it after such a long time.

Tianming took the roasted pheasant, looked around, and asked with some confusion: "What is this?"

Gai Nie also stood up at this time, looked around, and said in a deep voice: "It's time for us to leave, we can't stay here any longer."

Li Mu came to Que Xie's side and asked in a low voice: "Fourth uncle, is there anyone around here? Why didn't the other uncles come to remind me?"

Que Xie shook his head and said: "Maybe they think there is no danger. No matter, just clean up and let's leave here."

Li Mu nodded, turned around and started packing his belongings.

Tianming looked at the roasted pheasant in his hand, handed it to Gai Nie, and said: "Uncle, this pheasant is already roasted. You can take it first, and we will eat it on the way."

After seeing Gai Nie take it, he distributed the four pheasants next to the fire to Li Mu and Que Xie who had already packed them away.

Seeing that everyone had packed up, Gai Nie turned around and walked forward. Tianming held a roasted pheasant in one hand and followed Gai Nie's footsteps while eating.

Li Mu and Que Xie looked at each other and followed.

However, after walking a few steps, there was a burst of messy footsteps ahead, and then, men in light blue uniforms holding spears came out of the forest, and tightly surrounded Gai Nie and others.

Gai Nie and Que Xie raised their swords, blocked Tian Ming and Li Mu behind them, and looked at the people in front of them warily.

A man at the head looked at Gai Nie and others and said coldly: "Who are you? What are you doing here?"

Gai Nie glanced at these people and breathed a sigh of relief. These people were not Qin's pursuers, and there were no strong opponents among the visitors, so he could rest assured for the time being.

Quexie took a few steps forward, cupped his fists and said, "I was passing by here and was really hungry and thirsty, so I got some food by the stream in front of me, but I didn't want to alarm everyone. Please forgive me."

The soldiers did not relax and still looked at the few people with wary expressions. The two sides remained in a stalemate.

After a while, Li Mu didn't want to wait any longer, and just when he was about to ask Que Xie to take action, there was another sound of footsteps in the dense forest, attracting everyone's attention.

I saw a young man in purple clothes and a big man in yellow robes walking out of the forest with more than 20 soldiers, and once again surrounded everyone.

The boy in purple looked at the people surrounded, two teenagers and two adults, one of whom seemed to be seriously injured.

The most important thing is that three of the four people hold swords in their hands.

The purple-clothed boy's eyes moved slightly, he looked at everyone and asked, "Who are you? What's the matter with you here?"

Que Xie's eyes flashed when a few people came out. He might not recognize the others, but he still had some impression of the big man in yellow clothes.

When the King of Chu and the Xiang clan gave up Xiaoyao City, it was this person who went to Xiaoyao City to take over the handover. Moreover, before the demise of the Chu Kingdom, Quexie, as a disciple of the Xiaoyao Sect, also went to Shouchun to perform tasks.

He still knew some of the senior officials of Chu State and people from the Xiang family.

Over the years, I have interacted with the chaotic gods and monsters of Yuanluowen, and I have also heard news from some people in the world. Xiang Liang is here, and the young man taking the lead should be Xiang, the young master of the Xiang clan who rose to prominence in the battle between Qin and Chu.

Shaoyu, these people should be the remnants of the Chu State hiding here.

Thinking of this, Quexie breathed a sigh of relief, stepped forward, slightly cupped his hands to Xiang Liang and Xiang Shaoyu, and said: "Everyone from Chu State, we are just passing by. We don't mean to disturb you. Please forgive me.

Find a way out."

Li Chen, who was standing on the treetop in the distance, rolled his eyes speechlessly. This Quexie's brain was not very easy to use. If he didn't reveal the other party's identity, the other party might let a way out, but now, if he wants to do this

It was impossible to leave.

Sure enough, when Xiang Shaoyu and Xiang Liang heard what Quexie said, they looked at each other, and then their faces darkened: "Why do you know our identities? Are you all Qin's lackeys?"

Quexie sighed, shook his head and said, "I know you, or in other words, I have met you before, Xiang Shaoyu and Xiang Liang, the young masters of the Xiang clan, and we are not from the Qin State."

Xiang Liang was stunned for a moment, then asked in a deep voice: "Have you seen me? Who are you?"

Quexie Youyou said: "Xiaoyao City, Xiaoyao Seven Swords, Quexie, when you went to Xiaoyao City to hand over, several brothers and I cooperated with Lord Liu Tong to hand over with you."

Xiang Liang's face suddenly looked a little ugly, and he said coldly: "Are you from Xiaoyao City?"

Quexie nodded and said calmly: "Yes, we are from Xiaoyao City."

Xiang Shaoyu's face on the side also looked a little ugly, and he said coldly: "If Xiaoyao Chengli hadn't been involved, our Chu country would not have perished. It just so happens that I will teach you a lesson today."

Li Mu took a few steps forward and came to Que Xie's side. He looked at Xiang Shaoyu and said solemnly: "It's ridiculous. What happened back then was just the incompetence of the Chu Kingdom. What does it have to do with me, Xiaoyao City?"

"My friend, what you said is too much. Our Chu country fought with the Qin army until the last moment, and even the king committed suicide. How can you say that we are incompetent?" An old voice sounded from the forest, and then, a

An old man with white hair and white beard wearing a purple robe walked out of the forest.

Quexie looked at the old man and said with a heavy face: "Fan Zeng, the military strategist, are you still alive?"

Li Mu was stunned for a moment, and then said: "The kings and ministers of Chu State only focused on Shouchun and their own status. They didn't realize it until Xiang Yan died in battle. How could they not be incompetent?"

"Besides, your kings and ministers from the Chu Kingdom have caused trouble for me, Xiaoyao City, many times. Why do I, Xiaoyao City, have to rescue them?"

"Xiaoyao City is built on Chu. After several wars, there has never been a military attack near Xiaoyao City. How many people in Chu have survived by relying on Xiaoyao City. Are you not doing better than you?"

"Having said that, Chu State has died, but your Xiaoyao City is still there." Xiang Shaoyu said with an ugly expression.

A sarcastic smile appeared on Li Mu's lips: "This is even more ridiculous. Our Xiaoyao City is not a city of Chu State. What does the fate of Chu State have to do with my Xiaoyao City?"

"Back then, your Xiang clan personally handed over Xiaoyao City to my father. Why, now you want to deny it?"

Xiang Shaoyu looked a little angry, and Fan Zeng waved his hand to stop him: "Okay, Shaoyu."

Then he looked at the four people and asked: "I won't talk about the past, but why are you here now?"
