Chapter 223 Gray Eyes

Fengyun jumped down from upstairs, stood still, waiting for the middle-aged man to go downstairs, but there was a trace of trouble in his eyes. ↖

He didn't expect the enemy to be so easy to deceive.

Maybe it's because the minds of primitive people are relatively simple, without so many twists and turns.

Originally, he just wanted to try to get some useful information from the middle-aged man. If he was unsuccessful, he would attack him directly, take him down, and interrogate him.

Now it is different from before, they can put long lines of big fish, they can wait slowly, there is no time, and action must be taken, lest they cooperate with the Black Crow King and put everyone in danger.

You can keep some if necessary, but the premise is that you must know who they are and be able to monitor their every move at all times, such as the Niu brothers.

The result was beyond his expectation, the middle-aged man actually believed his words.

Although he could feel that he was still a little wary of him, he believed that as long as he didn't show any obvious flaws, he could still trust him in the end.

Of course, it is a good thing to be able to deceive the enemy's trust and break into their interior.

The enemy has already accepted his proposal to gather other people who have been bribed by the Black Crow King. This is an excellent opportunity for him and the witch, a good opportunity to wipe them all out.

But now it has brought a new problem to Fengyun.

How should he cooperate with the witch, which requires them to be able to communicate, but he is worrying about how to meet her.

"Why don't you go?"

The middle-aged man came down from upstairs and walked quickly to Fengyun's side.

"Also? Aren't I waiting for you?"

"Then let's go."

The middle-aged man finally said so, but he didn't mean to take the lead.

"So timid?"

Fengyun can see it. Middle-aged people are unwilling to go first. It's not about doubting him. Instead, he was worried about what kind of unfavorable actions he had behind him.

Fengyun didn't point him out, and walked to a relatively remote corner of the Baicao tribe according to his memory.

He did this not entirely to arouse the suspicion of the middle-aged man, but also for himself.

After reaching a remote corner and then walking out, he can have a more reasonable explanation for why he suddenly appeared in the Baicao Tribe.

He could say that he knew the safe route to enter the tribe from Mulanzhi or the witch in advance, avoided the eyes and ears of the enemy, and sneaked into the tribe quietly.

He believed that the witch would lie for him too.

It was one of the alternatives he thought of in the witch's quarters.

If you don't see the witch all the time. He decided to do it.

Although there are still some problems with this kind of rhetoric, he can't wait that long anymore. The situation is critical and time waits for no one.

Not long after leaving the small building, Fengyun's expression suddenly changed, and then showed a frustrated expression.

His senses were acute and he soon realized he was being watched.

At this moment, he finally understood,

Why is there no one guarding such an important place as the witch's residence? It turns out that the witch used it as a bait. The spies who wanted to place the Black Crow King in the reinforcements were brought out.

The war is now in a state of stalemate, and this stalemate is caused. A large part of the reason is because of the existence of the purple bamboo forest.

In other words, whether or not they can break through the Purple Bamboo Forest will be the key to the outcome of this war, and those who can help the Black Crow King break through the line of defense will definitely be valued and rewarded by the Black Crow King.

Those spies who have secretly taken refuge in him will not miss this opportunity.

As for how to break through the defense line of the Zizhu Forest, the most feasible way is to obtain a map of the Zizhu Forest and find a safe path.

The most likely place to find this map is naturally the witch's residence.

The witch had obviously figured out the thoughts of these people, so she simply set up a trap to prevent people from guarding her residence, so as to facilitate the actions of the spies.

In fact, she had set up sentries along the main passages around her residence, and they would keep an eye on the enemy when they left her residence.

Fengyun came out of the secret passage, and walked together with the middle-aged man who was discovered by the secret sentry before entering the witch's residence. It was logical that he was also regarded as a spy.

Fengyun could even feel the anger in Anshao's gaze towards him.

In this regard, he can fully understand.

He was brought into the tribe by Mulanzhi and gained the trust of the witches, but in the end he lied to them, and both the witches and Mulanzhi have very high status in the Baicao tribe, it would be strange if they were not angry.

Feng Yun was not afraid of the misunderstandings by the secret sentries. When he saw a witch, he didn't even know how to tell them apart, so the misunderstanding was eliminated.

What he was worried about was that the secret sentries couldn't hold back, jumped out, and attacked him and the middle-aged man directly, so that his plan to find out all the spies planted by the Black Crow King at once would come to nothing.

He believed that this was also the information that the witch was eager to obtain.

Although he discovered that the Niu brothers were spies by chance before, told her, and kept them under surveillance, the Black Crow King acted too quickly and did not give her much time to pass Niu's The brothers find out the other spies.

Optimistically, even if the witch's approach has made progress, it is absolutely impossible to find out all the other spies lurking in the reinforcements.

Otherwise, she would not have used her residence as a bait to dig out spies.

Fortunately, what Fengyun was worried about did not happen. Although Anshao's mood swings were a little more violent because of his presence, they finally controlled it.

After a short time, Fengyun brought the middle-aged man to a relatively remote corner.

"You can call for someone. It's very safe here. People from the Baicao Tribe rarely come here on weekdays. Now that it's a state of war, it's even more impossible for them to come here."

Fengyun began to urge the middle-aged man to move.

It was almost dark now, and after finding out the situation of the spy, he still had to go to see the witch to discuss what to do next.

The middle-aged man did not leave immediately, but looked at Fengyun with a hesitant expression.

"What's the situation? Is there a flaw?"

Regarding the performance of the middle-aged man, Fengyun couldn't help but feel nervous, but he still kept calm and asked calmly: "Why don't you go? Is it because you are afraid that I will use this to get rid of you and take credit for yourself? If you are really worried, Let's go together, the two of us."

"No. I think you are so familiar with the Baicao Tribe. You should have been here for a while. Why don't I seem to have seen you?"

"So it's because of this."

Fengyun relaxed and said with a smile: "It's not surprising that you don't know me. I don't come from the tribe that Mu Qiuxia invited this time. As for which tribe I come from and how I can work for that person, It’s not convenient to say.”

"No wonder I think you are a bit unfamiliar, so I have never seen you before."

The middle-aged man showed a relieved expression and smiled, then seemed to remember something, and asked, "I don't know what your name is?"

"I don't want to lie to you. I can't tell you my name, but if you want to call me conveniently, you can call me Jiu."

"Then I'll call you Nine. You can also call me Grey-Eyes."

The middle-aged man accepted Fengyun's words calmly, and finally pointed to his own eyes, imitating Fengyun and giving himself a code name.

"Okay, I'll call you Gray-eyed. Gray-eyed, hurry up and come back. We all gathered together, and after looking at the map of Zizhu Forest, we need to discuss how to send the map out."

"Okay. I'll go now."

At this time, the middle-aged man seemed to have completely believed in Fengyun, turned around and left quickly.

Looking at his back, Fengyun's eyes revealed a trace of entanglement.

He was a little undecided, whether to follow him quietly and see how he would notify the other spies, or to do another equally important thing?

However, he soon made a decision to give up following Gray-Eyes.

It's not that he doesn't think this matter is not important enough. On the contrary, it is very important to dig out the spies hidden in the reinforcements now. The reason why he chose to give up is because someone helped him to do this matter.

Just when he was in trouble, Fengyun found that one of the secret whistles following him and the middle-aged man had left, and he went to follow the left middle-aged man.

These secret sentries can be selected by the witch, there must be something special about them, since they are followed by someone, the situation should be clarified.

Fengyun stood there for a while, then suddenly moved, and walked to a more remote corner, where there were no houses, just some bamboo, but not connected with the purple bamboo forest outside.

Not long after he entered the bamboo forest, two people turned out from behind a dilapidated thatched cottage, glanced at each other, nodded imperceptibly, and chased after Fengyun.

Fengyun's speed was not fast, and it was very easy for them to track him by relying on their familiarity with the terrain, but after Fengyun turned around a clump of dense bamboo, they suddenly lost his trace.

Uneasy expressions immediately appeared on the faces of the two of them. Losing someone is a big deal, especially now that the war is in a stalemate.

They immediately started looking separately.

It was only a few short breaths for Fengyun to be out of their field of vision. Logically speaking, he shouldn't be able to walk very far. Hurry up, and it is very likely that he will be able to find him again.

Too bad they were disappointed.

I searched all around, back and forth, and didn't even see Feng Yun's shadow.

The two got together again, their faces were very ugly, they exchanged something, and one of them turned around, obviously going to report to the witch.

"Excuse me, are you looking for me?"

A voice suddenly appeared in his ear.

He subconsciously turned around and looked in the direction of the voice.

What he saw made his eyes widen immediately.

Fengyun, whom he and his companion had been looking for but could not find, was standing very close behind him, and his arm was still on his companion's shoulder, with a smile on his face, as if greeting an acquaintance. (To be continued.)
