Another guard who died in the Northern Dynasty was named Bai Sang. In the impression, he was also tall and tall. The dead Amu and Yelu Yu who had been dressed as daughters looked as if they were carved from the same mold.

Gu Shiwei thought absentmindedly, gradually falling behind the team rushing to the crime scene.

Wu Jiang was standing here, holding a lantern in his hand, walking one foot deep and one foot shallow, looking a little worried.

"Didn't you recognize that Amu before? After all, the Ripper soldier said that he was once a vanguard general of the frontier army, and he should have met you on the battlefield."

Wu Jiang was stunned and his stomach growled.

He turned his head in confusion, shouted at Gu Shiwei, and then said bitterly, "Gu family, did you forget one thing at the same time? I haven't had dinner yet!"

"Brother Shi Yan asked me to put out the Kongming Lanterns. I missed the big bone soup and the white steamed buns. Although it was a blessing in disguise that I didn't get drugged. But now the Five Zang Temple is empty, and my stomach can't help but sing. It’s a folk song.”

Gu Shinwei looked at Wu Jiang with a deep look.

"Didn't you recognize Amu? You must have met on the battlefield, right?"

The expression on Wu Jiang's face gradually became stagnant, and he smiled a little lonely, "Gu Qinshi has never served as a general in our Dayongbian Army. How can I put it... When I was young, I watched my father and brother go to the battlefield, and I just felt that they It’s both imposing and useless.”

"The awesome thing is that you can kill everyone on the battlefield, but the useless thing is that after so many years of fighting, you still can't regain the Sixteenth Province of Youyun."

As the two spoke, their pace gradually slowed down until they landed at the end of the team.

Wu Jiang smiled mockingly to himself, "It wasn't until I went to the border that I realized that being a general in the Yong Dynasty was not pleasant at all. If you lose, you will be punished by the civil servants. If you win, you will want to work hard and keep up the good work. The court can't wait for a series of attacks. The military order tells you to stop when you are ready."

"I finally recovered a little bit of lost ground. I haven't even finished the celebration wine. I haven't even warmed it by holding it in my hands. The skin of the mouth of those soft-footed shrimps touched it and cut it out!"

"Why haven't I seen that Amu? We don't know how many times we have fought to the death."

"If we meet on the battlefield, I just want to chop him to death. But now I am Wu Tuiguan, and he is a wooden guard... The court wants to negotiate peace... My little arms can't hold my thighs, so what can I do?"

Gu Shiwei rarely saw Wu Jiang like this.

When he knew nothing about investigating crimes in Bianjing City, he was full of confidence and looked like I was not afraid of anything.

Now that I have reached the field where I am good at, I feel dejected.

"This isn't like you."

Wu Jiang looked around to make sure there were no other soldiers around him, and sighed, "You don't understand my dear, my uncle was protecting me when I was in Bianjing. My uncle loves his nephew, so there's really nothing to say about it. of."

"Even if I want the emperor's beard, my uncle will scold me, and then sneak one back when he goes to the imperial study room to discuss matters."

Gu Shiwei was speechless as she listened. This scene was too strong. She firmly believed that this incident had definitely happened. Wang Yihe had stolen the official's hair for Wu Jiang. Otherwise, this guy's poor mind would not have been able to think of this at all. .

When the Wu family said this, they suddenly became jealous. He bowed, walking a little lighter like a thief at first, "It's different at the border. If I don't do anything right, my father will whip me, my father-in-law will pull my ears, and my brothers will line up to make me squat on horseback." …”

"Hongying used to protect me. Ever since... with my father's temperament, I dare say that when we leave this village, we will meet the people he sent out to pick me up at dawn. Needless to say, the people who come will definitely be My second brother, his name is Wu Fu."

"When I started to light up the sky lanterns, I whispered my third wish. I was afraid that if I spoke loudly, his gentle ears would hear me."

Gu Shiwei frowned as he listened.

"It seems that the ghost-like killer chose to attack tonight. He must be someone who is very familiar with the border and knows this."

She didn't even need to look at the second deceased, she could guess that his fatal wound must also be on the neck, with a knife to seal his throat.

The guards in the Northern Dynasty were very good at martial arts. If they were fighting alone, they would not be killed so easily. This is because they drank the bowl of bone soup, so they did not have such high combat effectiveness.

But even so, the technique was too professional, and he was obviously someone as talented as Wei Changming, who had also been trained as an assassin.

This kind of person suddenly appeared, either a Xixia master, or a famous figure who Ma Hongying reminded her to come over immediately after their mission failed.

"It came so fast, it was like I had been watching the movement here."

Gu Shiwei said and denied this conjecture.

Although she deliberately went to Songmaoling to meet Ma Hongying, she did not stay in the camp. But in this open space, there is Wei Changming, the number one assassin of the Imperial City Division, secretly, An Hui, the ghost of Pingdan Tower.

They are all people with profound attainments in Qinggong and exploration, so it is impossible not to feel that there are eyes staring at this place.

So... could the ghost assassin be hiding among them or the Northern Dynasty's team?

Gu Shiwei was startled by her own thoughts. She pursed her lips. In order to prevent herself from being distracted, she changed her mind and asked Wu Jiang, "The soldier from the Northern Dynasty said earlier that Amu accidentally Important prisoners of war were lost.”

"Amu killed the soldier's sister years ago, so you should have been at the border at that time. Do you know who the prisoner of war was who was captured and then escaped?"

Wu Jiang was stunned and looked at Gu Shiwei in confusion. He shook his head and said, "No one from our Yongbian army was captured at that time."

He thought for a moment and added, "Not to mention someone who escaped after being captured."

"If you always take prisoners, you have to be called a general. Those of us who lead troops in wars, if we come back after being captured, it will be worse than death. The court will not trust him anymore..."

"Anyway, if it were me, I would rather die than be captured."

Gu Shiwei took a deep look at Wu Jiang. His words were extremely sincere and did not look like he was lying at all.

So, was it that the prisoner was not Ma Hongying at all, or was it that Wu Jiang knew nothing about the fact that Ma Hongying was captured before she died and then rescued by the crested ibis?

Gu Shiwei thought, looked at Han Shiyan who was walking at the front of the team, and asked Wu Jiang seriously, "How did Hongying die?"
