Chapter 1096

Here we go again...

How thick-skinned must they be?

It hadn't been long, and they had actually fallen asleep again.

Sleeping is fine, but this snoring is truly impressive.

Fortunately, it wasn't just them snoring here.

There were faint snoring sounds coming from around them as well.

Not everyone patrolling at night was full of energy.

Surely some people would be sleepy and fall asleep.

As long as not everyone fell asleep, it would be fine.

When there was danger, as long as someone gave a warning, they could wake up quickly.

These things were too common.

Now they were temporarily safe.

As Sha Nu thought about it, he gradually fell asleep too.

The next morning.

Sha Nu was woken up by a series of noisy sounds.

The moment he opened his eyes.

He saw many people moving around him.

Some were cooking breakfast, some were packing things up.

It looked like they were preparing to evacuate this place.

"Sha Nu, you're awake, hurry up and get up to eat something."

"Did you sleep well last night?"

A soldier laughed.

He was holding some food in his hand.

"Hmm? Where did you get this food?"

Sha Nu looked suspiciously at the potato in the soldier's hand.

"They made it."

"I got up early, didn't I?"

"I got close to them and got some food."

"Sha Nu, you were right, they don't recognize us."

"The armor on our bodies is the same, so they mistook us for their own."

The soldier was relaxed and very comfortable.

Sha Nu smiled bitterly; he didn't expect such a result.

He took the potato from the soldier's hand and started eating.

Sha Nu also took the opportunity to look at the surrounding environment.

It was too dark last night to see clearly.

He saw that this was a huge valley.

The ground was flat, with some scattered stones occasionally.

There were countless bushes, but they had all been trampled flat.

All around were densely packed people.

It felt like there was no end in sight.

All were wearing the armor of Great Qin soldiers.

In this situation, it would be strange if anyone recognized them.

This also made him feel more at ease.

Just at this moment—

A small squad of soldiers walked over.

They stopped in front of Sha Nu and the others.

"You three, come with me."

"The County Commandant wants to see you."

The squad leader's face showed neither joy nor sorrow.

It was impossible to tell if it was a good thing or a bad thing.

Sha Nu and the other two were stunned.

They thought this was a patrolling squad.

Who knew they were here to notify them to see Ren Xiao.

Isn't the County Commandant that old thing Ren Xiao?

Sha Nu and the other two didn't know what had happened.

They didn't know why they were suddenly being summoned.

But this matter was a bit ominous.

The three could only obediently follow.

And only then did they discover.

The surrounding soldiers were looking at them with strange eyes.

It felt like they were looking at an outsider.

This made the three a bit confused.

Didn't they blend in?

Could it be that they were exposed?

That shouldn't be!

They hadn't done anything.

Sha Nu looked at the other two; they had woken up before him.

If they were exposed, it was likely they had done something.

But the two shook their heads, indicating they didn't know what was going on either.

Sha Nu was helpless and could only wait until he saw the County Commandant to decide based on the situation.

Maybe they weren't exposed, but something else had happened.

It wasn't good to scare himself now.

Thinking of this, Sha Nu followed the soldiers in front and walked forward boldly.

He wanted to see what Ren Xiao wanted to do.

Very soon—

The three were brought in front of a flat giant rock.

There were four people standing on it.

Two old men, one young man.

And a middle-aged man whose hands were tied.

He looked a bit disheveled; one could tell at a glance that he hadn't washed for several days.

Sha Nu recognized him at a glance.

The person tied up was the one they were here to rescue—Shangqing Meng Yi.

Although Sha Nu hadn't seen him in person, he had seen Meng Yi's portrait.

And Meng Yi looked somewhat similar to Grand General Meng Tian, so he was easy to identify.

And one of the old men and the young man were exactly the ones from last night.

The identity of the other old man was self-evident.

Ren Xiao, County Commandant Ren!

And the old man he had seen last night was Fan Zeng and—Hu Hai!

So he had seen them last night.

It was just that the light was insufficient last night, so he hadn't seen them clearly.
