”Oh …” Big Brother Tang, five... ”What does five minutes mean?”
Tang Yin patted his head as he silently cursed himself for being an idiot. The way he remembered things was completely different from the way he remembered things from his previous world. He explained, ”Just for the time it takes to burn an incense stick.”
Ah!” Only then did Zhang Bao fully understand and ran off in agreement.
Qiu Zhen, who was lying beside him, laughed: ”Aren't you being too cautious? If you want to rest for an incense, send people to keep watch.”
Caution was Tang Yin's way of life. He said indifferently, ”Caution can cause a ship to sail ten thousand years, there's no harm in being cautious.”
”Makes sense!” Qiu Zhen smiled and nodded, showing his agreement.
They had only stopped for two cups of tea (twenty minutes) when the spies in the rear came rushing back. Seeing him acting aggressively, Tang Yin knew that there was definitely an enemy. Without waiting for Zhang Bao to ask, he had already strode forward and asked: ”What's wrong?”
”Big Brother Tang, junior … The enemy is coming from behind! ” The scout panted as he spoke.
”How many?” Tang Yin asked calmly.
”The distance is too far so we can't see it clearly. However, there are at least several hundred people, and there's even a team of horses.”
So many people … Tang Yin's body trembled. With these hundred over deserters, there was no way they would be able to fight against so many enemies. After pondering for a moment, he immediately made a decision and said to Qiu Zhen who had followed over, ”Let the brothers hide themselves.
”Understood!” In that moment of crisis, Qiu Zhen withdrew his usual mischievous smile and immediately got everyone to hide the In Grass on the two sides of the road.
The spies that had spread out had bought them quite a bit of time. After Tang Yin and his group of more than a hundred people cleaned up the scene and hid all of it inside their In Grass, they could vaguely see the shadows of large groups of people at the back of the road.
As the distance was too far and the weather was hazy, Tang Yin was unable to see everything clearly. But just as his spy had said, the other party should be numerous, with dense amounts of black shadows lining up for a very long time.
Qiu Zhen also poked his head out of the grass and looked around. After looking for a while, he still could not find anything, and could not help but mutter: ”Why can't I see anything?”
Tang Yin pulled him down, and said in a low voice: ”Don't show your head, they are almost there!”
Ah!” Qiu Zhen inhaled a breath of cold air and lay down in the grass, not daring to raise his head again.
Gradually, the group of people on the road got closer and closer. Tang Yin's brows furrowed even more.
At this time, he could already see the name of the flag. On the front of the flag was embroidered a large 'Dancing' word, followed by a flurry of flags flying behind. There were more than ten of them, and from the look of the driver, the other party was no ordinary character.
When the other party was a little closer, Tang Yin saw soldiers dressed in black armor. Could it be a man of the wind? Tang Yin crouched down, and asked Qiu Zhen who was beside him: ”On our side, do we have a general that uses' dancing 'as the symbol?”
”Dance?” Qiu Zhen was startled, then nodded blankly: ”Of course I do, why do you ask?”
”The other party's name is' Dance '. Judging from the clothes and armor, it should be the' Feng Ren '.”
”Huh?” Qiu Zhen revealed a face of shock, and asked suspiciously: ”Could it be someone from the Wu Family?”
There were four great families in Feng Country, and they were also one of the four great noble families that supported the Feng Country Royal Courtyard. Since he was wearing the banner of a dance and was also wearing the clothes of a Feng Country, then it was no mistake that the main general should be someone from the Wu Family. Qiu Zhen paused for a moment, his face revealing surprise, and anxiously said: ”In that case, the other party is one of our people!”
Tang Yin shrugged his shoulders, he did not have much impression of the influential people of Feng Country, but since he knew that they were not enemies, he could no longer hide. He stood up straight, without waiting for Qiu Zhen to speak, he walked out of the bush and stood in the middle of the road.
At this time, the other people had also clearly seen the arrival flag. Seeing Tang Yin once again standing on the road, their throated hearts finally dropped, and they followed Tang Yin out from the bushes.
The sudden appearance of a hundred or so of their number also scared the army. They immediately stopped advancing and almost habitually pulled away. If they were ready for battle, the soldiers on the other side of the road would have let out a sigh of relief after seeing what they were wearing.
Not long after, two soldiers wearing black armor with black capes ran over to Tang Yin. When they got close, they sized them up first, then asked with a stern expression.
Hearing the other party's question, Tang Yin could only force a smile on his face. All of them were itinerant soldiers, there were all sorts of groups, just temporary groups, he did not know how to reply.
He could not answer, and the others could not. Seeing that they were silent, the two soldiers became impatient, and one of them asked: ”Which one of you is the leader? Immediately come with me to see General Wu! ”
