Chapter 680: Secret Army
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
“Previously, after the people from that village caused trouble, they had all been moved away. Now, that village should be sealed off. Since we’ve found traces of an army gathering there, perhaps that group of people has been cultivating there for a few years. We can’t act rashly.”
While Qin Huai was accompanying All Yu to look for the truffles, the guards suddenly came over to report that there was a gathering of troops on the other side of the mountain, and the scale was not small.
Whether it was Qin Huai’s undisclosed identity as a prince or his identity as All Yu’s fiance, they had to resolve such a hidden danger.
The current Hu Family Village was already developing in full swing. Not only did it radiate to the surrounding villages, but it also made the entire Wangbei County seem like a large county.
Ordinary people would only feel envious when they saw the current appearance of Hu Family Village and want to come over to learn experience or join them. However, if there were military forces present, they would definitely conduct thorough investigations of the surrounding situation.
Especially since the Hu Family Village was so lively now. Every day, hundreds of people would come to the Hu Family Village from all over the area. It was not that difficult to mix a few people in.
Although Qin Huai had left some people behind, Teacher Wan, Teacher Luo, Blood Thirteen, and the others to help watch over the village, and there were also many young men patrolling the village, it was only enough to deal with ordinary people. It was difficult to deal with soldiers.
It was unknown who led the secret army, but to be able to carry out a drill there silently and Empress Qin did not tell him, they must be unregistered existences. They should not have good intentions.
“Young Master, you’re about to return to the capital. We have to resolve this as soon as possible. Otherwise, if we delay the time to return, Matriarch Wang will definitely notice. At that time, the others will probably also know and it might cause panic,” Chi Jia said. “Why don’t you leave this place for me to resolve and inform Madam? When Madam sends some reinforcement over, it should be easy to resolve.”
Although the Young Master had gradually grown up, he was still a young man. Chi Jia selfishly did not want the Young Master to participate and wanted him to avoid danger.
Qin Huai looked at him. “Chi Jia, you’ve crossed the line.”
“I know my mistake.”
“Don’t worry. When we went to investigate, her people must have already reported it to her.” Qin Huai thought of All Yu again. He was more worried about All Yu and the Wang Family. “Transfer the people from Nanhe Town over to protect the Wang Family first.”
“Yes.”
“I won’t be leaving tonight. 1’11 wait for your news here.”
“Yes.”
After Chi Jia left, Qin Huai did not go out directly. Although his martial arts had improved greatly, it was impossible for him to win against a large group of people.
His body was made of flesh and blood, and he was not an immortal. It was already a little difficult for him to block ten people, let alone a hundred or a thousand.
At this moment, Ah Yu’s voice suddenly sounded outside the door. “Big Brother Ah You, are you asleep?”
Qin Huai deftly took off his night clothes and immediately went to put on his inner clothes.
“Big Brother All You?”
“I’m here.” Qin Huai hurriedly put on his coat and opened the door. He saw All Yu wearing a night suit and looking at him with a burning gaze.
Ah Yu looked at Qin Huai’s unbuttoned blouse and lowered her voice. “You’re sleeping? Go to sleep then.”
“Wait.” Qin Huai took a step forward. “What are you doing?”
“Oh, 1 forgot to tell you. I realized that something was wrong behind the mountain today. Little Lamb wants to bring me to take a look. 1 thought that if you weren’t asleep, we could go together. Since you’re sleeping, I’ll go myself. It’s more convenient for Little Lamb to bring me alone.”
“The family is already asleep. They won’t notice.”
Qin Huai immediately pulled off his coat and picked up the night clothes from the side. He put them on neatly. “Let’s go.”
Ah Yu :”…”
The two secret guards who remained:”…” Young Master, do you still remember what you said to Leader Chi?
Ah Yu did not intend to hide it from Qin Huai. After all, among the people she knew, only Qin Huai would work with her completely and unconditionally.
Little Lamb followed. Its lambs also wanted to follow. When Little Lamb tilted its head, the lambs retreated back to the lamb shed in fear.
The two humans and one sheep did not follow the path of Shanyang Village. They entered from the back of the mountain and circled around another mountain.
Although there was still a moon in the sky, by the time they crossed the mountains, there was almost no light around. The two of them took out a night pearl at the same time and barely illuminated the path ahead.
Ah Yu originally wanted to use the illumination device, but Meatbail said that it was afraid of scaring Qin Huai and asked her to restrain herself. She could only change it to a night pearl the size of an ostrich egg.
Qin Huai took a few glances at the night pearl and almost couldn’t stop himself from asking about it. Even the Great Chang Imperial Family probably didn’t have such a huge night pearl.
Moreover, it was obvious that Ah Yu’s bag couldn’t hold it.
Silly.
“It’s too heavy. I’ll hold it.” Qin Huai exchanged his egg-sized Night Pearl with Ah Yu’s.
When they crossed the mountain, the two of them moved in unison. They threw the Night Pearls in their hands into a pit and buried them with leaves.
Two little heads popped up behind a rock. Little Lamb followed suit and placed its furry head on it.
“There are so many people. They’re even training with torches at night. What are they trying to do?”
Qin Huai said indifferently, “Rebel..”
