Chapter 621: One Life for One Life
Hongxiao frowned and listened carefully, hearing some soldiers complaining.
"Hey, Captain, do we have to wander around all night?"
"Of course, the spy wasn't caught."
"What if I don't catch it tomorrow?"
"Then continue patrolling tomorrow until we catch them."
Hongxiao breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that Bai Niangniang and Gou Lian had successfully avoided pursuit.
Unexpectedly, before he could completely relax, he heard another soldier say.
"Hey, Boss, I heard they've already captured two. There's only one left. I wonder if he's still in the city."
"Don't talk nonsense, what if someone hears it?"
"No way, could it be such a coincidence?"
"It's better to say less."
The patrol team of ten people gradually moved away while muttering to each other.
Hong Xiao lay on the roof without moving. Of course she heard what the soldiers said.
It turned out that White Snake and Dog Face had been caught.
Hong Xiao thought it was not surprising. The arrests in the city were so strict, going door to door and digging deep into the ground.
White Snake and Dog Face had no abilities of their own, so naturally they could not escape capture by the Zhenxi Army.
Now it’s awkward. Should I leave or go and rescue White Snake?
Hong Xiao is skilled but not smart enough.
She began to suspect that she went to steal the thunder, and that the mute was arranged by the Zhenxi Army to set a trap for them.
So, when the thunder exploded later, it not only killed people but also exposed their whereabouts.
The situation today is all a trap set by others.
Now she knows that Bai Niangniang has been arrested. Is this Lin Feng’s conspiracy?
Hongxiao’s brain was too busy to care about what the game was about. Her mind was full of thoughts.
If I go and rescue White Snake, it will be considered a life for a life. I will have repaid the favor of saving my life and can leave.
From then on, he was free, never killed again, and lived in seclusion for the rest of his life.
This beautiful ending of life attracted her so much that she couldn't help herself for a while.
With her speed in light work, Hong Xiao would have no problem saving the person she wanted to save.
She still has this confidence. If she is more careful, she can avoid Lin Feng's trap.
White Snake has just been captured, and I'm afraid the security must be very tight at this moment. We have to wait for two days until the situation in the city relaxes, and then we can find an opportunity to take action. That will be the best time.
Hong Xiao then sneaked into an empty house and lay in hiding.
She waited patiently for two days, and on the third day.
As the saying goes, a skilled person is daring. Hong Xiao did the opposite. In broad daylight, she went out to the street and slowly approached the west wall of the government office.
Seeing that there was no one around, he broke into the government office, knocked a maid unconscious, tied her up tightly, blocked her mouth, and stripped off the maid's clothes and put them on himself.
Then he appeared in the government office with a swagger.
This set of skills is very familiar to her.
She looked for crowded places, waiting for an opportunity to find out where White Snake was imprisoned.
I don’t know if it was because the city’s security was relaxed or Hong Xiao was too ordinary, but in any case, no one noticed her and everyone was busy with their own business.
Hongxiao wandered around and finally met a woman who delivered food.
"Sister, who are you delivering the meal to?"
Hongxiao walked forward and asked with a smile.
The woman looked Hong Xiao up and down.
"newcomer?"
"Well, I've only been here for a day."
"Be more discerning and stop wandering around."
"Yes, sister taught me that."
"Okay, I have to deliver the meal quickly, you go get busy."
The woman picked up the lunch box and was about to leave, and Hongxiao asked casually.
"Which adult is Sister delivering food to?"
"Hey, what kind of lady is this? She's a woman who's been locked up. I heard her last name is Bai, but I forgot her name."
The woman said this as she walked quickly towards the backyard.
Hong Xiao hurriedly followed.
"Sister, let me help you carry it. It's too heavy."
"Yeah, if you don't have anything to do, you can help me carry it over. It's amazing that a woman can eat so much."
The two of them carried their lunch boxes and walked towards the backyard. Some passers-by greeted them, while others just passed by in a hurry.
No one paid any attention to the two of them.
They arrived at the door of a house in the backyard smoothly. Two soldiers were standing at the door, and they obviously knew the woman.
He just glanced at Hong Xiao.
"Put it in front of the door, you guys go back."
The soldier did not avoid people, turned around, opened the door, and went in with the lunch box.
While the soldier was opening the door, Hong Xiao took a look into the room and suddenly discovered that Lady Bai was sitting under the window, reading a book.
Hong Xiao turned around and looked around, and found that this place was not as heavily guarded as she had imagined.
Apart from two soldiers standing guard not far away, there was almost no one else.
Hongxiao let out a sigh, it was settled.
After turning a corner with the woman who delivered the food, I said goodbye to her politely.
There was no one around, so Hong Xiao jumped onto the roof, stuck her head out from the ridge, and observed the house where Bai Niangniang was imprisoned.
From the outside, there is nothing unusual, it is just an ordinary house.
She walked along the roof, turned around, and found a way to retreat.
Then he lay down in a depression in the roof and took a nap.
When I opened my eyes again, the sky was full of stars and the night was as cool as water.
Hong Xiao turned over and looked at the room where Bai Niang was imprisoned. A dim light was already flashing, but the surroundings of the room were pitch black.
There were four soldiers standing in front and behind the house, holding guns and facing outside.
A smile appeared on Hongxiao's face. To her, such defense was almost nothing.
He took a deep breath, and his body glided lightly down from the roof, silently circling half a circle in the air.
Close to the wall of the house, slowly approaching a window.
Hongxiao used a short knife to pick up the wooden lattice window and slowly pushed it open.
Then he jumped up and rushed into the house.
Bai Yuexi couldn't sleep. She was locked up here, but her heart was still thinking about the Black Scarf Society's great cause.
If he didn't give up the Black Scarf Society, he would probably be locked up here forever by Lin Feng and would never be released.
She was not worried that Lin Feng would kill her because she had her biological daughter Bai Jing.
However, if Lin Feng didn't let her go, it would be better for her to die.
Although I was holding a book in my hands, I felt very upset and couldn't concentrate on reading a single word.
Suddenly, she felt a breeze on her face and the candlelight flickered.
When he looked up, he found Hong Xiao standing in front of him with a smile on her face, looking at him quietly.
Bai Yuexi opened her mouth in surprise, but no sound came out. She just nodded appreciatively at Hong Xiao.
Hong Xiao leaned over and whispered in her ear.
"My Lady, Hong Xiao has rescued you this time, and now we have settled all our grudges. From now on, Hong Xiao will travel far away and will no longer venture into the martial arts world."
Bai Yuexi hesitated for a moment, and this time she fell into Lin Feng's hands, suffering heavy losses.
Hongxiao is her right-hand man. She has never seen anyone in the world who can compare to Hongxiao.
If I don't agree, I'm afraid I won't be able to gain freedom.
"Okay, as long as we can get out of this city, we'll be even."
Hong Xiao nodded with satisfaction: "My Lady, follow me."
As he spoke, he turned and walked towards the window.
Bai Yuexi sat there without moving, just staring at Hong Xiao blankly.
Hong Xiao took two steps and didn't hear any movement from Bai Yuexi, so she looked back at her in surprise.
