A Pair of Eclipse Swords
Chapter : 151 – Midnight Wolf Mystery
According to the story from Han Fu Ji yesterday, Sung Han and the Eagle Queen named Yang Ruan were taken by the Midnight Wolf horde to the east. So this time, Sung Hwa had no choice but to travel there.
He traveled fast, but did not venture through villages or large cities. Even if you stop by the village or city, just for a moment if there is a need to buy supplies. The rest, if there was no important business, then he chose to go through the wild and difficult forest road.
Of course Sung Hwa did not want to be known as a rebel by way of villages or cities. When there is a crowd, quickly he raises the hood of his robe to cover part of the head. That's very helpful.
Sung Han's search was done in addition to fulfilling Han Fu Ji's last message, also for his personal interests, namely killing the young man. Good news for him to meet Han Fu Ji, because it just so happened that he was able to find out Sung Han's footsteps.
But after a long journey, of course Sung Hwa lost his way. He had no idea that Sung Han and Yang Ruan were taken to the secret headquarters of the Midnight Wolf, whereas he himself had never been there.
Begin this girl deviated from the main line, which was originally supposed to go east, she was turning in an uncertain direction.
Finally, he arrived in a small forest that was quite overgrown with trees. For days he searched, never to see where Sung Han was.
The girl frowned then threw herself away to sit down in any place. No matter if the pants are dirty, the important thing there is still protected by tree shade so it is very cool.
"It's so thick." he murmured, his eyes glancing here and there full of annoyance, "When it's got its trail, why is it so hard?"
Finally, Sung Hwa decided to lay himself on the ground. I glanced up at the blue sky that unfolded as if it was endless.
"Are you waiting for destiny? Wouldn't you meet someday?" thinking pensively like this, making his tired mind and tired body more felt and unconsciously go back to this girl.
...****************...
As already told, Gu Ren along with the entire Black Dragon chose to help the government. Also Khuang Peng, the young lord of the White Rajawali and a free swordsman nicknamed the Iron Stick, who was none other than Nie Chi. These are the warriors of the powerful rebel exterminator.
Yesterday, there was a spy scattered by the Black Dragon and the White Eagle, they found traces of the Midnight Wolf in the eastern area.
After asking the emperor for permission and the old man agreed, they went east. What is likely is the Midnight Wolf headquarters because their members often appear around there.
They moved very cleverly, this time Sie Kang did not come but they used the strategy of the grandfather like the time of the invasion of the Demon Heart. By disguising and moving about in a diffuse manner.
Other than to search for information in the surrounding villages, they also did not want to attract the attention of the Midnight Wolf.
Let us follow for a moment the journey from Nie Chi, the swordsman nicknamed the Iron Cane when seeking information alone.
Early in the morning, he had already arrived at a small mountain slope village. Without any hesitation, the young man carrying the black stick on his back entered the village. This village looked prosperous, until here Nie Chi thought that the Midnight Wolf headquarters might still be far from here.
Go to a restaurant that just opened. Immediately he sat down on one of the chairs and called the owner of the stall.
"Uncle, prepare a two-part roast and a large plate of fresh vegetables. As well as the fragrant wine that is not too hard."
The person lowered his head deeply and smiled amiably, "Okay sir, please wait a moment."
The person nodded a few times and immediately went to the back room. Shortly after he came again with the Nie Chi ordered dish. As the young man ate voraciously, this middle-aged man stood behind him to wait.
"Let's talk" Nie Chi said after finishing her meal. The middle-aged man sat before Nie Chi.
"I want to ask, are there frequent rumors about the Midnight Wolf?"
The owner of the shop looked surprised, but only briefly before returning to control himself and replied, "Ah.it is just a rumor circulating around here. We often hear the sounds of fighting people on the hill, but we don't pay much attention because they never interfere."
Nie Chi nodded his head, "That's true, I heard in the cities before this village, he said they often saw members of the Midnight Wolf appearing in the east here."
"As I said before, sir, they are often seen by the members of the army, but at best there is only the sound of fighting on the hill." replied the owner of the stall without removing his smile.
Nie Chi digested the information, it felt a bit awkward if the Midnight Wolf just passed by without making a mess. But if that's what the owner of the stall as the inhabitants of this village said, he can't argue because he does not know anything.
Suddenly he remembered something and quickly asked, "Before arriving in this village, I heard that there were some people passing by and were suspected to be members of the Midnight Wolves. They said if some of those people were heading to this village, did uncle know about it?"
The owner of the restaurant began to think, his eyes glanced to the upper right and his hands fumbled on his chin, the normal pose of a person who was thinking hard. While Nie Chi, was still waiting without saying a word.
"Ah...you mean those guys?" the owner of the shop suddenly said. He seems to have remembered.
"Did uncle know something?"
"Ah.ya, I know. Yesterday there were some people passing by here and they were dressed in black. Presumably it was a member of the Midnight Wolf."
Nie Chi grew interested, his face became glowing and gleeful, "Well, where did they go uncle?"
"There" said the man pointing to a hill that had been pointed at since then as a place where the sound of fighting could be heard. Nie Chi looked over and was astonished.
"Why is it always the hill?" inner wondering.
"They went there, sir, unmistakably, I saw it for myself."
After observing the hill for a while, Nie Chi had already made the unanimous decision to investigate there. So he said as he stood up and put down a few pieces of silver.
"This is in addition, thanks for the information" he said, and quickly moved from there to the hill. Accompanied by the unusual eyes of the shop owner.
