The person who controlled the crow never imagined that he had been exposed.
Although the secret technique used by this man allowed him to borrow the eyes, ears and nose of a crow, he could not tell whether what he saw and heard was reality or an illusion.
Not to mention, the illusion created by the illusion ghost bead is very lifelike. Unless you have high mental resistance, it will be difficult to detect flaws in a short time.
And even if this person has high mental resistance, the crows controlled by him will not.
Qin Shaoyou's original plan was to visit Zuo Qianhu and report the situation before leaving immediately and rushing to the next town to inspect.
But now, he planned to find out the person who controlled the crow, so he left in no hurry.
He found a reason to stay.
This reason is quite reasonable - it will get dark soon, so we need to stay one night before leaving.
Although there are regulations here in Shuanggui Military Village, outsiders are strictly prohibited from entering.
However, Ye Zhiqiu has not yet handed over his duties in Shuanggui Army Stronghold. He is still one of the people in charge here. Whether Qin Shaoyou and others are outsiders and whether they are qualified to spend the night in Shuanggui Army Stronghold is entirely his decision.
With Ye Zhiqiu and Cen Biqing making arrangements, Qin Shaoyou and the others successfully moved into Shuanggui Military Village.
During this process, another person in charge of the Shuanggui military camp, Feng Biao, the hundred-household officer stationed in the military camp, also came over to meet Qin Shaoyou, and they exchanged a few business words.
After all, everyone is a hundred households.
Although Qin Shaoyou is a trial hundred households, which is half a rank lower than Feng Biao, Feng Biao is only a hundred households in the local guard station. In terms of gold content and power, he cannot compare with the trial hundred households in the Demon Suppression Department.
Therefore, Feng Biao kept his attitude very low. Not only did he send gifts to Qin Shaoyou and congratulate him on his promotion, he also complimented him with a smile on his face: "I have long heard that Qin Baihu is extraordinary in martial arts. When I saw him today, he is indeed well-deserved.
"
Qin Shaoyou repeatedly praised him, then corrected him with a smile: "I'm just trying a hundred households, not a hundred households."
Feng Biao smiled and waved his hand: "Based on Zuo Qianhu's regard for my brother, it will only be a matter of time before he is promoted to Baihu."
"Then I'll be here. I'd like to thank Feng Baihu for his kind words." Qin Shaoyou laughed and seemed very happy.
As a result, just after Feng Biao finished his greetings, said goodbye and left, his expression suddenly darkened.
He made a gesture and asked Cui Yougui to use the sound isolation technique, then called Qiurong from the drum and ordered: "Go and keep an eye on the person who just left. Don't let him find out."
Qiurong nodded and accepted the order, then her body swayed and disappeared into a wisp of blue eyes.
When Ye Zhiqiu saw this, he was a little surprised and asked, "Are you suspecting that there is something wrong with Feng Biao?"
Seeing Qin Shaoyou nod, he asked again: "What's the reason?"
Qin Shaoyou thought for a while and replied: "Intuition, and what he said that Master Qianhu values me."
Ye Zhiqiu almost went crazy: "It's just intuition, what's the reason behind that?"
Qin Shaoyou didn't think so. He sneered and said: "This Feng Biao is just a Baihu official in a local guard station. How could he know that Qianhu adults value me? I don't think you will do anything in front of him.
Are you talking about these things?"
Ye Zhiqiu was stunned for a moment and said: "Of course we won't talk about these things, but what if Feng Biao is just being polite? After all, you were just promoted today. It's not wrong to say that you are valued by Qianhu adults."
Qin Shaoyou spread his hands: "So I didn't take the person directly, I just asked Qiurong to keep an eye on him. It would be best if he has no problems, and if there are problems, he can be dealt with in time."
Ye Zhiqiu thought about it and felt that this arrangement did make sense.
He couldn't help but sigh: "I have long heard that you pay attention to being prepared when doing things, and today I saw that it is indeed the case. But you are quite right. Regardless of whether Feng Biao has any problems or not, since there are doubts, someone should be sent to keep an eye on him.
Just let Qiurong go, okay?"
Qin Shaoyou was not worried at all: "Don't worry, Qiurong's ability to appear and appear is extraordinary. You will naturally learn it when you arrive at the Demon Division of Mianyuan County."
Time soon came to night, and the sky gradually became dark.
The crow that had been resting outside the military tent finally fluttered its wings and took off.
It didn't notice that a figure was hiding in the darkness, following it quickly.
About a quarter of an hour later, Zhu Xiucai, who was responsible for tracking the crow, returned and brought back the crow's body.
"What's going on?" Qin Shaoyou asked.
Zhu Xiucai explained: "This crow suddenly fell from the sky after flying about a mile out of the military stronghold. I hid in the dark and observed it for a while, and after confirming that it was out of breath, I picked it up.
Come back."
"Have you been exposed and discovered?" Ye Zhiqiu asked.
"Impossible!" Zhu Xiucai said with full confidence: "I am so good at hiding and tracking that even us adults can't find it, let alone a crow."
Qin Shaoyou took the crow's body, and after some inspection, he discovered something and asked: "When you picked up the crow, was there any blood in its body?"
"No." Zhu Xiucai replied: "When I saw the crow, I noticed something was wrong with it. Its body was extremely dry. I even made a cut on it with a knife, but no blood flowed out. Because of these weird things
, I just brought it back."
Ye Zhiqiu also noticed this situation and deduced: "It should be a side effect of the secret technique of manipulation. It seems that this secret technique consumes the blood of the person being controlled to maintain its effect."
Qin Shaoyou nodded in agreement, and then called Cui Youyou, who was monitoring the changes in Qi inside and outside the military camp, over.
"Senior Brother Cui, it's your turn to show off. See if you can use the crow's body to divine the specific location of the person who controls it."
Cui Youyou glanced at it, but didn't even bother to reach out to pick it up.
"Do you really use me as a hunting dog? The secret technique on this crow has ended. It cannot be ignored with just a corpse that has been drained of blood and soul..."
Before he finished speaking, his expression suddenly changed.
However, he noticed that there were abnormal changes in energy inside the military stronghold.
"Something is running outside the military camp!"
At the same time, Ye Zhiqiu also gained insight into this situation through the mechanisms and magic arrays set up in the military camp.
There are many organs and magic formations built in the military stronghold. These were originally used to defend against external enemies, but Ye Zhiqiu used them to monitor the situation inside the military stronghold, but they did not arouse the alertness or suspicion of others.
Cui Youyou and Ye Zhiqiu noticed something running outside the military camp almost at the same time.
It was also at the moment of understanding that he made a secret and cast a spell, and the earth escape penetrated the ground.
It was obvious that the two men were competing to see who could catch something that ran outside the military camp first.
Now that darkness has completely fallen, even animals such as wild cats, wild dogs, and even rats will find places to hide. Only in human towns or fortresses do they dare to sneak out and move around.
Under such circumstances, anyone who dares to leave the military camp and run into the wild, no matter what it is, is very suspicious.
It is necessary to capture and check.
And just as Cui Youyou and Ye Zhiqiu were escaping, a figure quietly floated to Qin Shaoyou's side.
