Chapter 105 Night Exploration

  It was a starless and moonless night, with dark clouds covering the sky, and the world between heaven and earth was pitch black. Although it wasn't to the point where you couldn't see your fingers when you stretched out your hand, it was still difficult to recognize someone even if they were standing right in front of you.

  Behind a large stone, after a period of meditation, Zhao Ji recovered his internal strength and felt his way up the dark mountain cliff to investigate the specific situation of the Green Camp bandits.

  Actually, it doesn't take much effort. Standing on the cliff and looking down, not far ahead, there are lights twinkling, that faint glow is particularly eye-catching in the pitch-black night.

  Because it was from the back mountain, the stronghold was in front, and there was a considerable distance from the place where the lights were shining brightly. However, when rushing to that place, Zhao Ji still did not dare to be careless, fearing that the back mountain had set up ambushes or traps.

  It turned out that Zhao Ji was indeed overthinking, and all the way to the front mountain, nothing happened, and he was not discovered by the thieves in the green camp.

  In a clearing on the front mountain, a camp was set up here. The camp was filled with flickering flames and the sound of loud noises could be heard from afar.

  Perhaps it was because the mountain stronghold had been at peace for a long time, and no one had infiltrated it, not even a night watchman outside or inside the stronghold, and it was in a state of extreme relaxation.

  It was easy to sneak into the mountain stronghold, and sneak into the main hall of the stronghold. Zhao Ji hid on the roof, lifted a tile, and looked inside. It turned out that dozens of people were gathered for gambling, no wonder the noise was deafening.

  He glanced down carefully and found no one he knew, so Zhao Ji put the tile back in its original place and quietly slipped away.

  In the village, he turned around several times, but still couldn't find the chief's residence, nor did he see any sign of the fierce cow. Zhao Ji realized that searching like a headless fly wouldn't work, so he decided to find an informant.

  At this time, Zhao Ji happened to see a thin and dry bandit going to the toilet, and hurriedly went forward, pointing at the person's Xuanzhong acupoint.

  He dragged the man to the corner of the stockade and whispered in his ear, "Wait a minute, I'll let you out of the hole, but don't try to shout or run away, otherwise, I'll kill you."

  With one hand grasping the scrawny man's throat, Zhao Ji loosened his acupoints, and his hand relaxed slightly. Immediately, a fit of coughing erupted from his mouth.

  "Keep your voice down, do you want to die?"

  Zhao's voice was low and menacing.

  As for the actual strength of the Green Camp, Zhao Ji had basically figured it out. Apart from Tie Bi and Liu He being second-rate martial artists, there were no other experts. Even if they were discovered, it wouldn't be a big deal, so he wasn't too tense.

  Under Zhao Ji's intimidation, the thin and small bandit did not dare to make another sound, fearing that if Zhao Ji's hand shook, he would really lose his life.

  "Very well, this cooperation is a wise move. Don't worry, as long as you answer some questions for me, I will spare your life."

  Zhao gave him a tranquilizer first.

  "Got it?"

  Under Zhao Ji's gentle and firm persuasion, the slender bandit nodded repeatedly, showing off his one hundred percent cooperation.

  "Do you know where the first and second village heads live?"

  Zhao Ji got straight to the point without beating around the bush.

  "This, this..."

  Even the foolish and thin bandit knew that Zhao Ji was unfavorable to the two village masters, and the bandit, who was affected by the cruelty and majesty of the village master, couldn't help but hesitate at this time.

  "It seems you know, unless you want to resist to the end and be loyal to your two masters."

  With a few more points of strength in his hand, Zhao said gloomily.

  A choking sensation rose up in his mind as he felt his neck being tightened all of a sudden, the shadow of death descended.

  Although Xiao Fei was afraid of the two village heads, he was more afraid that if he betrayed them and they found out later, they would settle accounts with him. However, the immediate threat to his life was even more dangerous and oppressive.

  "I said, I said."

  His face showed extreme fear, combined with the dark night color, making him look even more ferocious and ghostly. The thin, small thief let out a series of low cries, his slightly distorted voice trembling with fear, as if he was afraid that if he responded too slowly, his neck would be snapped.

  "Alright, go ahead and say it."

  Zhao Ji urged.

  Under the threat of death, the small thief was very honest and without any hesitation, he pointed out one by one the places where Liu He and Man Niu lived.

  Having obtained the exact information, Zhao Ji did not dare to delay and immediately rushed over after knocking out Xiao Fei. With the coordination of Shen Xing Bai Bian and Ti Yun Zong's light skills, his figure flashed and went to a corner of the village.

  Originally, Zhao Ji thought that as the leader of the Green Camp, Liu Liu and Man Niu should live in the best rooms at the center of the camp, but the reality was far from his expectations.

  Toward Liu and Man Niu, they actually lived in two ordinary small courtyards near the corner of the village, previously, when Zhao Ji was searching the village, he had passed by here, but never thought that the two village masters would live in this place.

  Two courtyards, not far apart, but also not adjacent, with a distance of over 100 meters in between. Zhao Ji first went to the courtyard of the fierce cow.

  As soon as he entered the courtyard, Zhao Ji heard a faint moaning sound coming from inside, accompanied by the occasional shrill cries of a woman.

  Hearing this noise, Zhao Ji's eyebrows slightly furrowed, and he walked in the direction of the sound. As he approached, the noise became even more intense.

  The sound was coming from inside a room, Zhao Ji leaned against the window and used his fingers to poke through the paper window, looking inside, and indeed confirmed his own speculation, there was indeed a man and a woman engaged in a fierce battle.

  That man, sturdy as an ox, was the second master of the Green Camp, Man Chui. As for the woman's appearance, he couldn't see clearly, only catching a glimpse of a white blur.

  "Ah, Second Master, you're really brave and strong, much better than that weakling in my household. Ah, I adore you to death."

  "Haha, that's also not looking at the old guy's age, how can it be compared with me? However, I didn't expect you to be so energetic, and I didn't get you into bed early, what a big loss."

  "Oh dear, it's not too late now, but if we get caught by the old man, what will happen to us?"

  "Don't be afraid, the old man is at a critical moment in his cultivation and doesn't have the energy to bother with us. Besides, even if he finds out, it's nothing, I'll protect you, there's no need to fear him."

  "Ah, I'm not afraid of that old guy at all, as long as you're protecting me, I'm not afraid of anything."

  ……

  After confirming the identity of the fierce cow, Zhao Ji originally wanted to take action immediately. However, from the conversation between the two people, he discovered some information and waited for a moment. Unexpectedly, he really heard something.
