Chapter 2

Chapter 2: Colleagues

The next day, after the meeting in the middle of the camp, Zheng Ze went on a hunting mission with his team.

Mi County is not big, but South Korea has a lot of troops stationed here.

Because it is near Xinzheng, the capital of South Korea today, you only need to walk all the way up the Sishui River, and you can see the city wall of Xinzheng after more than a hundred miles.

However, although the camp where Zheng Ze was located belonged to the Mi County establishment, its military duties were not mainly to protect the county.

Instead, he was stationed on a mountain eight or nine miles away from the county seat to strictly prevent anyone from approaching him.

This is information known to outsiders, but sergeants in the camp like Zheng Ze know very well that their mission is to guard a secret prison here.

Everyone here knows that there are very terrible prisoners in the prison. Even the previous centurion kept it secret, as if mentioning it would be dangerous.

After patrolling the mountains and forests for a long time like security guards, Zheng Ze and his group of seven or eight people found a cool and ventilated place to sit down.

Weapons were placed casually around each other, and several of them even untied their light armor without taking it off, so that half of it rested on the ground to reduce some weight.

At the same time, it can be dealt with in time when the superior officer is inspecting, although it is almost impossible for the superiors to come and inspect.

Judging from the looks of the colleagues around me, it seems that fishing has become a habit.

"Zheng Ze, last time you went into the prison, did you see clearly what the person in prison looked like? Is it like what we heard, that she is a pretty girl who looks too good to be true?"

At this time, a soldier had nothing to do and asked Zheng Ze in a conversational manner.

In response, Zheng Ze had no expression on his face and shook his head, "I don't know clearly. I fainted before I could see clearly."

Hearing this, the person who came to chat felt bored and simply went to talk to the person next to him about other gossip.

It is not difficult to see from the behavior of these people that under the leadership of the previous centenarian, these people regarded the prison as a forbidden area and no one dared to set foot there.

Except for the original person, the others are gone.

He knew very well that the person imprisoned in this prison was none other than Yan Lingji whom he knew.

A beauty from Baiyue who was good at manipulating flame witchcraft. Even if she only glanced at her, Zheng Ze couldn't forget her stunning face.

However, the danger hidden under that beauty also engraved in his mind.

If you guessed it right, Yan Lingji's flame witchcraft is completely imprisoned in the crystal cage. It is said that it is difficult to hurt people, but her beauty can also be used as a murderous weapon.

From the remaining memories, Zheng Ze remembered that when he saw that exquisite face, he could not suppress his inner obsession. Especially when he touched those indescribable eyes, he was completely lost.

Fire charm!

These still seemed like a dream to him, but Zheng Ze knew very well that his current situation was not bad, but he remembered that in the original work, the general who was not afraid of death led a noble man to see Yan Lingji, and thought

Use Yan Lingji's beauty in exchange for a lot of money.

It was also because of his stupid behavior that he attracted the Wushuang Ghost. Not only did he and the old noble man die on the spot, but all the centurions stationed here were probably slaughtered by the Wushuang Ghost.

In other words, if I don't find a way to escape before then, I will die miserably.

But all the money he had saved was eaten by the puppet, and for a while he couldn't give it any wealth. Now he doesn't know how far things have developed.

Just as he was thinking about it, he heard people talking in his ears. It turned out that these men were talking about the new boss behind his back.

I only heard the man who was still asking me just now say: "Our Adjutant Lu is always very happy with his achievements and flatters noble people. But I heard that he was able to go up this time because someone in the county helped!"

Hearing this, a well-dressed young man on the right side of Dunn said teasingly: "You are very brave. Adjutant Lu, you should be called Lord Lu now! Be careful if he hears it and behead you!"

The man who originally spoke sneered disdainfully, "Just him? I'll give him a hand!"

The young man shook his head but didn't say anything.

Zheng Ze looked at them. He had been here for more than two years. When the adjutant named Lu took office, most of the people below him were dissatisfied. Wherever there are people, there are rivers and lakes, everywhere.

Immediately, the man looked at the young man and said, "If it weren't for him Lu Xin clinging to the powerful, you might not be the boss sitting in this position of chief!"

The young man raised his brows when he heard this, but said nothing about it. He just said, "Just complain in private. Don't mention it in front of others."

After listening to his advice, the man still looked unhappy.

Seeing this, the young man whom he called boss said: "Don't think too much, the old ghost Lu Xin fawns over is not a good guy. No pretty woman in the county can escape his clutches. They say that this prisoner is a prisoner.

She is a woman who has conquered the country, what do you think Lu Xin will do next?"

At this time, not only did the man look at him, but other people also paid attention, including Zheng Ze.

"This...boss, you mean..." He was shocked by these words, but considering that the young man's family had some connections in the county, this information should not be false.

"But the former Centennial Master said that it is extremely dangerous there, and that prisoner will still have ways to kill people even if he is imprisoned. How dare he, Lu Xin?"

Hearing this, the young man sneered and suddenly looked at Zheng Ze, "Originally he didn't dare, but now he does!"

Seeing this, the man and others also glanced at Zheng Ze and suddenly became enlightened.

Yes, I didn't dare to do it at first, but after seeing that Zheng Ze could come out safely after entering, I felt that it was not that dangerous.

"Damn it, that's a repeat offender. He, Lu Xin, actually used his power for personal gain. Why doesn't the boss report him to the Centenarian?"

Hearing what he said, the young man shook his head and said, "Master Zhang was transferred away by the order of the general's government. Before leaving, he said that he was on an important mission and that he should not be found unless there is any urgent matter."

"But this..." The man wanted to say something else, but he didn't know how.

The young man shook his head and said, "Let's take a look. The prisoner is definitely not simple. If there is something wrong in the process, this person surnamed Lu will have something to do with it."

Being able to make people in the team willing to call him "boss" is because his family is quite famous in Mi County. Now, as long as Lu Xin makes a big mistake, he will never let go of the opportunity.

The family also put in a lot of effort in getting promoted this time, but he was cut off by that flattering villain halfway, and he had long been resentful in his heart.

However, listening to the conversation between the two, the other people had different expressions. Zheng Ze quickly gathered his thoughts, so it seemed that Lu Xin was the guy in the original work who attracted the old noble man to plot against Yan Lingji.

This is not good news. That guy really has this plan. It only means that he is not far from death.

This made Zheng Ze feel a sense of urgency. What should he do to get out of the deadlock?

When he was about to enter the secret cell, he sneaked away? This was impossible. Neglect of duty was a serious crime. Without someone to protect him, he would probably not be able to leave Korea.

During this period, go and get in touch with Yan Lingji? Thinking of her beautiful face, Zheng Ze thought it was feasible, but not safe.

When everyone tidied up their clothes and prepared to return to their base, Zheng Ze stepped forward quickly and said to the young man just now: "Master Li, do you know the whereabouts of former centenarian General Zhang?"

Li Zuo was a little surprised. He didn't expect Zheng Ze to come up and talk to him. In the past, this guy was just a boring gourd, and he couldn't even say a thing for a long time.

But this was not a secret, so he said: "The transfer order from the general's office ordered General Zhang to go to the capital to perform military duties. He must be in Xinzheng at the moment."

"Does your Excellency know where General Zhang lives in Xinzheng?"

Li Zuo's eyes flashed, he thought for a while, and then said: "I have heard before that the general's hometown is in Liuye Alley in the south of Xinzheng City. If you find it, you should be able to find it by asking people nearby."

Zheng Ze nodded, "Thank you, Mr. Li."

Li Zuo looked at Zheng Ze, who usually didn't get close to anyone. He had also heard a little bit about the fact that Zheng Ze often bribed Mr. Baichang. In this small place, there are about a hundred people, and if you want to hide some secrets, you will be like a star in the future.

It's just as difficult to spend money to find a young lady without being discovered.

He smiled and said, "But let me remind you that General Zhang is in a high position, and there are big people behind him. Don't think that a little favor can get you anything. Last time you entered the secret cell without permission and was not punished.

, is already the limit.”

Zheng Ze nodded, "My subordinates know."

Immediately, Li Zuo didn't say much. What he said was the pertinent truth. It was good for Zheng Ze to work under him and his heart was with him. Even if he was away, he wouldn't bother to win over anyone.

In short, it’s no big deal for a small person.

But something suddenly occurred to him. Since this kid wanted to find General Zhang's connections, if he could report Lu Xin at that time...

Zheng Ze indeed went to Xinzheng to find a way to escape from the outside world. At the same time, he also wanted to find out where the current situation in South Korea was.

What is the purpose of the General's Mansion gathering people to return to Xinzheng? He has some guesses in his mind, but they still need to be confirmed.

Before he could think about it, as soon as a group of people returned to the camp, someone came up and shouted: "Zheng Ze, General Lu calls you to come over and see him."

Zheng Ze was a little confused, but he didn't think much and followed the adjutant.

When I really saw the newly appointed centurion, a strange yet familiar feeling came to my heart. Yes, although there were only a few shots, at least it was a modeled character. Look at the deathly look in front of you.

The person who is plotting evil against Yan Lingji is him.

"This subordinate has met Mr. Bai Da."

Hearing this, the long-faced man sitting in front of the case slowly put down the letter in his hand and said calmly: "Zheng Ze, before you disobeyed military orders and entered the prison without permission, what crime should you face?"

Zheng Ze straightened up his bent waist and frowned. What's the matter? Is this guy planning to settle accounts in the future? His predecessor didn't seem to have offended him before?

At the moment, he could only deal with it cautiously, "General Zhang had already punished his subordinates at that time. I wonder what the general meant by mentioning it again now."

Lu Xin smiled kindly and asked General Zhang to pressure me? He couldn't afford to offend him, but he was gone now, right?

"Don't worry, I don't mean to be harsh on you. It's just that no one has entered the prison in the past, but it is different now. I want to understand the situation in the prison so that we can better fulfill our responsibilities as guards."

Guard? I'm afraid you don't want to guard and steal.

Immediately, a troubled look appeared on Zheng Ze's face, "I'm afraid this subordinate will live up to the general's expectations. He just entered the prison and fainted before he could see anything clearly."

Lu Xin's expression paused, "How could this be? Can you clearly see whether the prisoner inside is male or female, and what they look like?"

Listening to what he said, combined with what he heard before, no matter how stupid he is, he will know what he is going to do.

Zheng Ze just shook his head with an innocent look on his face. He saw the expression on Lu Xin's face changing again and again, and then looked at himself again, "In this case, you have already had experience, then go in and have a look and check clearly.

Are there any omissions in the prison? At the same time, be sure to see the prisoner clearly. I want to make sure she is still alive!"

"This..." Zheng Ze didn't expect that he would suddenly do this. He was using himself as cannon fodder!

"What? Do you have any objections?" Lu Xin stared at Zheng Ze closely and said sadly.

"I obey," Zheng Ze said, cupping his fists.

Now that I am just an unknown person, it will be too easy for the other party to take advantage of me. If I really disobey my order, maybe the other party's newly-appointed fire can be burned again.

Zheng Ze looked thoughtful after leaving the military tent. Fortunately, going to prison may not be a dead end. With the memory of his predecessor before his death, he did have experience.

You can distinguish the differences between the two creations by yourself, so I won’t go into too much detail.
