Qingshan called out, "Sir, you can have your porridge now."
Jiang Sheng nodded, walked over quickly, filled a bowl, put the bird eggs aside, and drank the porridge slowly.
"Hey, sir, where did you get the eggs?"
"The little kid gave it to me last night, saying it was a thank you gift. I accepted it out of consideration. I'll cook it for the next meal."
After drinking the porridge, they felt warm. They packed up their things and were about to ride away when their feet began to tremble.
Yang Yi immediately lay on the ground and listened carefully. The sound became louder and louder, and his expression changed instantly: "Sir, go into the woods first. There are many people on horseback coming."
Before Jiang Sheng could ask any more questions, he was dragged directly into the woods. Just as he hid himself, he saw officers and soldiers coming on horseback, with solemn expressions on their faces.
The leading man had a black mole on his forehead. He waved his hand and countless flaming arrows shot out towards the refugees, causing screams to emanate from them.
When Jiang Sheng saw this scene, his pupils suddenly shrank. Just as he was about to stand up, he was held down tightly, and hot tears fell on his neck.
Xianxian covered her mouth and dared not say a word. These officers and soldiers had treated the village in the same way back then. She still clearly remembered the flames that filled the sky.
Several people hid in the bushes and dared not move. The leading man looked at the little kid who was about to escape with a sharp and ruthless look, raised his hand and shot an arrow, which pierced through the little kid's body.
Xiao Shitou fell heavily to the ground, glanced at the forest, and slowly closed his eyes.
When Jiang Sheng saw this scene, his body trembled uncontrollably, his eyes were bloodshot, and his eyes were full of confusion, resentment and murderous intent.
Why, why did the imperial court want to kill them all? Those refugees were clearly not infected with the plague. Are they crazy? It's rotten, it's rotten.
After checking, an officer said indifferently: "To answer the general, these people...are not infected with the plague. Should the bodies be burned?"
The man raised his eyebrows when he heard this and said lightly, "Oh, that was a mistake. Never mind. They were just some low-class people, so just kill them. After all, it's for the sake of the military camp."
"Haha, don't forget to spread the word and say it's the Grand Marshal's order to execute those civilians who may be infected with the disease."
The others laughed wildly upon hearing this, discarded the corpse at random, and the sound of horse hooves continued to fade away.
Jiang Sheng's eyes were red and he bit his lips tightly. These people killed innocent people and just abandoned them casually, and even put the blame on his father.
No wonder, in the previous life, the people cursed at my father and brother after they died. So this is the reason behind it.
Yang Yi said in a deep voice: "Sir, look at the clothes on these people. They are the vanguard of the Jiang family. If the vanguard is a spy, then on the battlefield..."
"Sir, if you go to the military camp, you must be extremely careful and not reveal your identity easily, so as not to be discovered by spies. Without evidence, the marshal will not believe you."
Although it sounds a bit harsh, it is indeed the truth.
My father has always been stubborn and prejudiced against him. Without evidence, I would not believe him even if he was telling the truth.
Jiang Sheng took a deep breath, suppressed the surging emotions in his heart, and said in a deep voice: "Yes, I understand what Uncle Yang means. The most important thing now is to enter the military camp and find the spy."
"To prevent the spies from harming my father and brother on the battlefield in the future, nothing else matters. Laying low is the most advantageous."
"Those officers and soldiers are gone. Let's go out and collect the bodies of the villagers... and let them rest in peace."
Several people dug a hole in silence, dragged the body in and buried it, their faces solemn and their hearts heavy.
Jiang Sheng placed the bird eggs on the grave, took a deep breath, turned around, and rode his men on horseback, heading towards Guhuai Town, which was closer to the military camp.
He changed his mind and decided to lie in wait in a town near the military camp, waiting for an opportunity to sneak into the camp. This was the safest way to go. Otherwise, if he went directly, he would definitely not be able to get in.
In less than two days, several people arrived at Guhuai Town, rented a small courtyard to live in temporarily, and waited for the opportunity to enter the military camp.
By the way, he found out the situation in the military camp. After knowing everything clearly, Jiang Sheng set his sights on a person, an apprentice boy of the military doctor, who would sneak out to the town every three days to have fun.
It's getting dark
A thin figure staggered out of Yihongyuan, humming a tune with a wine jug in his hand. When he slowly walked into the alley, he was dragged directly into it.
When the child woke up again, he was already in the woodshed. He looked around in confusion and muttered to himself.
"That's not right. Why am I here? Is there anyone here?"
The door creaked open and several people walked in, looking down at him. Jiang Sheng looked at him carefully and nodded secretly.
"Uncle Yang, this man is about the same height as me. I can disguise myself as him. It just so happens that being a military medical apprentice gives me more freedom, and it's easier for me to move around in the barracks."
Yang nodded and thought it was a good idea.
"But sir, if you go in alone, it will take several days for our people to recruit soldiers. Can you do it alone?"
Jiang Sheng nodded and calculated the time in his mind. It was less than half a month since his father and brother had the accident. He had to go to the military camp and find out as soon as possible, as time waited for no one.
"Time is running out, I can't worry about so many things now. I'll go to the barracks first and be careful. I'll be fine."
"Even as a military medical apprentice, my status in the barracks is far higher than that of an ordinary soldier. As long as I don't commit suicide, no one will take the initiative to offend me."
Yang Yi thought about it and agreed. He looked at the man on the ground, squatted down, pinched his chin and asked, "Tell me everything about you!"
The child struggled, his eyes filled with resentment: "Who are you? Do you know that kidnapping people at will is a serious crime?"
"I don't know. It seems you don't want to say."
She took out a medicine bottle from her bosom, poured out a pill, and stuffed it directly into his mouth. Looking at the man who was in great pain due to the effects of the medicine, she said calmly, "Can you speak now?"
The child's forehead was covered with sweat, his face was distorted, and he kept begging for mercy: "I said, give me the antidote quickly, and I will tell you everything you want to know."
Yang Yi listened and wrote down all the key information. After making sure that nothing was missed, he raised his hand and knocked the man unconscious.
"Sir, take this booklet and make sure you memorize everything within half a day. I'll go prepare the disguises. Every time this person goes out, he must be back by noon the next day."
"I understand. I'll memorize it right away."
Jiang Sheng took the booklet back to his room and flipped through it quickly. After his rebirth, his memory was better than in his previous life. As long as he wanted to remember something, he could basically remember it after reading it once.
Half an hour later, the door opened and Jiang Sheng walked out, saying softly, "Uncle Yang, I remember everything."
"Okay, follow me and I'll change your appearance."
The person who came out not long after was already indistinguishable from a child. Others were stunned. How could it be... so realistic?
Qingshan walked around and looked at the completely unfamiliar face. He couldn't help swallowing his saliva: "The disguise technique is really amazing. You can change your face anytime and anywhere."
Yang Yi warned, "Young Master, be careful with the mask on your face. Don't let it come in contact with alcohol. Water is fine, but alcohol will make it fall off."
