At this moment, seeing Gao Jianli's reaction, Wu Mian curled his lips in boredom and chose to stand on the other side as well, not saying much.

He just watched quietly as General Chen began to give orders and arrangements.

At the same time, after the stone cracked, the next moment, General Chen immediately took out a handful of powder from his bosom and threw it directly into the entrance.

The next moment, a slight sound was heard, and then a cloud of smoke emitted from the entrance, a faint yellow color revealing its difference.

"What I just threw in is the antidote, specifically used to neutralize the poisonous smoke and poisonous powder burned last time."

General Chen looked at Gao Jianli and Wu Mian on the other side, and seeing their slightly curious expressions, he smiled slightly and explained.

"I didn't expect you to have such a trick; quite good."

Regarding General Chen's explanation, Wu Mian also smiled slightly and praised him casually.

However, regarding Wu Mian's existence, General Chen just nodded.

Then, watching the yellow smoke gradually dissipate, he directly gave orders to the soldiers beside him.

"You now immediately start clearing the rubble at the entrance."

"Then go directly into the tunnel to explore. Remember to tie ropes to your bodies; if any problem occurs, pull them toward this side."

After speaking, he stepped aside.

The next moment, the soldiers behind began to rush forward in an orderly manner, quickly surrounding the stone entrance.

Then they began to clear the stones.

Because the entrance passage was very inconvenient, only one person could enter at a time.

This also made the efficiency relatively low.

However, as time passed, the rubble was cleared away.

Afterward, the soldiers gradually walked inward.

They discovered that after a period of time, the internal space appeared larger.

It was not as narrow as the entrance, which made their actions much easier.

And upon learning this news, General Chen and the others were also happy in their hearts.

Then they began to urge them on, and thus the pace of this exploration accelerated significantly.

Gradually, the sky turned dark, but inside the cave, there was no obvious change; they still relied on torches for lighting.

And Gao Jianli, Wu Mian, and others remained in the two corners of the secret chamber, quietly watching everything happening before them.

As for General Chen, he was now feeling a bit anxious because the previous batch of men sent in had been gone for quite a long time.

Yet no news had come back, and for a moment, his heart was a bit worried.

577. Stone bed entrance, careless! (Please subscribe!)

However, soon, a little movement came from the stone bed entrance.

"They are back."

The soldier responsible for receiving them at the cave entrance shouted excitedly.

And upon hearing this news, General Chen immediately showed joy on his face.

Then he hurriedly looked toward the entrance.

The next moment, he saw a figure rush out from the entrance, and then began to pant heavily.

"Phew~"

"My lord, we have already found the exit of this tunnel; it is beside the county town at the foot of the mountain."

"That is a side entrance of the county town, and beside it is a commercial street."

After making some adjustments, the soldier also knew very well that he had a more important task to report, and then spoke.

"What? It actually went directly to Heihu County? No wonder we didn't block them at the foot of the mountain earlier."

Gao Jianli couldn't help but mutter softly at this moment.

You must know, Gao Jianli had previously been cooperating with the Huixian Grand General to intercept at the foot of the mountain.

Quite a few Blood Blade Sect high-level members who also hoped to escape through secret passages had all fallen into their hands.

But it just so happened that this group of people, the Blood Blade Sect Master, had actually escaped.

They even sent an extra team to wear their human skin masks and play dead here, which truly left a deep impression on him.

Now, upon learning the location where the other party truly escaped, which was actually Heihu County not far from the foot of the mountain, he was truly surprised.

But he was also somewhat relieved, because he knew very well that as long as this news was passed back, there would definitely be an investigation in Heihu County.

However, just as Gao Jianli was thinking about this, General Chen on the other side began to ask again.

"Did you find any other traces at that exit?"

While speaking, General Chen's eyes couldn't help but reveal a look of expectation.

And at this moment, the soldier frowned, and then made a look of struggling to recall.

"It seems like it had been treated around there; there wasn't a trace left. If it weren't for me appearing there and confirming the location of the exit."

"Perhaps no one would suspect that there would be anything unusual there."

And after the soldier's voice fell, General Chen on the other side faintly felt a trace of disappointment.

But soon he regained his composure, and then with a bitter smile, he looked at Wu Mian and Gao Jianli on the side and spoke.

"I think the two lords must have heard it. Now, the Blood Blade Sect Master has appeared outside the city of Heihu County."

"Then it is very likely that he has already fled from here, or of course, he could be hiding in Heihu County."

When he reached this point, General Chen paused, and then spoke again.

"Next, I will immediately arrange for men to report this important news to Lord Ying Mo."

"If the two lords have any other instructions, they can be arranged together."

While speaking, General Chen looked at the two people in front of him again.

However, at this moment, he discovered that both of them were in deep thought, and for a short time, they didn't seem to have any plans.

Then he directly arranged for his men to start passing the news to Ying Mo.

Not long after, Ying Mo looked at the intelligence in front of him and immediately snorted coldly!

"Hmph!"

"I didn't expect this Blood Blade Sect to have such a tunnel. It seems I was indeed careless before."

Ying Mo said while falling into silence.

As if pondering something.

"Lord Ying Mo, since he has already appeared near Heihu County."

"Then taking advantage of this rare opportunity, we can just mobilize the army to search the entire city."

"In this way, the other party will definitely have nowhere to hide."

Upon learning the latest intelligence, Meng Tian beside Ying Mo directly suggested.

He had also heard about the operation against the Blood Blade Sect this time.

Therefore, he knew very well how many men were outside Heihu County, not to mention that Ying Mo had previously mobilized the army to take over Heihu County.

Once Ying Mo made up his mind to take action against Heihu County, it would be quite easy.

However, at this moment, upon hearing Meng Tian say this, Ying Mo shook his head slightly and spoke.

"That is not appropriate."

At this moment, Meng Tian, upon hearing Ying Mo say this, immediately stopped, and at the same time, revealed a confused expression as he looked at Ying Mo.

And on the other side, Ying Mo seemed to feel Meng Tian's gaze and explained directly.

"At the moment, we can only confirm that those Blood Blade Sect fellows have indeed fled to the vicinity of Heihu County."

"We are not sure if he is in the city. If we rashly take action to conduct a full-city search, it will definitely cause quite a stir."

"At that time, if he is not really hiding in the city."

578. Situation is not good, open to discussion! (Please subscribe!)

"Once he realizes the situation is not good in advance, he will definitely flee directly from here."

When he reached this point, Ying Mo paused and spoke again.

"Besides, even if he is really hiding in the city, such a large movement will definitely alert him in advance."

"If there is no accurate intelligence to find the area where he might be hiding, then it is possible that we will fail."

At this moment, upon hearing Ying Mo's explanation, Meng Tian nodded immediately, as if deep in thought, and then spoke to Ying Mo again.

"Since that's the case, what do you plan to do?"
