The Hunted Hunter
Chapter 463. Trailed
After eleven members of the Wind Fire army entered the city of Jejudo, they were followed by a soldier to keep an eye on their every move.
When they entered the city, there were some people who were already standing on the side of the main road and immediately offered them the services of a Tour Guide.
The leader, who learned that they were being followed by a soldier, immediately accepted a man's offer to become a tour guide for them.
Because of their number there are eleven people, so men who become tour guides for them can only come with their entourage on foot.
"Sir, what place would you originally go to?".
"Take us to one of the biggest markets in the city". The leader answered the question of the man who was their guide.
"We're going east to visit the city's biggest market". Said the man as if to tell them.
Because he was curious about the origin of the eleven people, so the tour guide immediately asked the group leader.
"Sir, if I may know, where are you from?".
"Do you know anything about the Zhou empire?". Ask the leader.
"Yes, sir, I know the territory to the Zhou realm which is far to the west of our kingdom". Answer the man.
"Have you ever been there?". Ask the leader again.
"No sir! I just hear it from everyone - people who come to our city, and from everyone who's been there". Honestly replied the man while blushing in shame.
"Oh, so that's the case, have you also heard of the Qin kingdom that is in the Zhou imperial territory?". Ask the leader again.
"Yes! I know it in the same way as what I just said". Answer the man again.
"Because you don't know exactly where we came from, so I don't want to explain to You anymore". Said the leader.
"Can't you give me a little picture of where the kingdom is?". Asked the man again in a slightly pleading tone of voice.
"Well, if you want a little picture of our home region, I'll explain a little to you". The leader responded to the guide's words.
"The Qin empire was to the west of the Zhou empire, which was currently also one of the strongest empires". The leader of the Wind Fire army began to explain the situation of their home area to the guide man.
There was not much that the leader of the Wind Fire army could explain.
After a while later, they finally arrived at one of the markets that looked very crowded.
Because they were kept under surveillance by a soldier of the city of Jejudo so that the leader immediately ordered his members to make transactions with existing merchants according to what they needed.
Although it is not yet an urgent need, but it must still be done.
After finishing paying some icons for their supplies, the leader immediately ordered his members to end the activity.
"Does this town have a stage set up for performing martial arts?". Ask the leader of the Wind Fire army.
"Yes! Did you feel interested to see a martial arts show?". Ask the driver.
"As a lover of martial arts, I am definitely very interested in watching martial arts shows".
"Because I can see new techniques that I have never seen before".
"And it can give Me insight into the shortcomings that I have".
"Hows it? Can we go there now?". Ask the leader.
"Can sir! Are you done buying the things you need?". Ask the tour guide.
"Yes! We're done buying all our needs". Answer one member.
"If so, let's go". Speak to the guide to go to the intended place.
They immediately walked to leave the place and headed to the town square to watch the martial arts show.
After leaving the market, their group was still being watched by a soldier.
The guide immediately responded to the leader's wishes by asking.
"Why would we change our goals? Is there something going on or going to happen?". Ask the driver with a curious face.
"Yes! Ever since we walked into that market, we've been tailed by someone".
"So we have to question what his purpose is so that he follows us". Answer the leader.
Hearing that the leader had revealed the reason why they had changed direction, the face of the man who was guiding the group of Wind Fire troops instantly turned tense.
"Who has been following us? Have you offended anyone in this town?". Ask the driver.
"I also don't understand why we're being stalked by this guy, which is why I want to frame and arrest him". The leader explained.
"Master! But are we not going to get into serious trouble for offending them?".
Now fear and curiosity began to envelop the heart and mind of the guide.
It was because he did not want to get into trouble with anyone.
What else the problem that would befall him was only because of the guests he delivered, not his own problem.
The leader also now began to convince that they would not get serious problems, because the leader just wanted to dig information from the figure who was following them.
Finally the guide followed the wishes of the leader even though it was hard for him to do.
The man immediately led them to a quiet place.
After a while, they finally reached where the leader meant.
When he arrived at a quiet place, the leader and his ten subordinates immediately prepared to catch the figure who was following him.
The figure that was trailing them started to feel suspicious of the situation at that time.
But before he acted to avoid getting caught by them, it was too late.
Because eleven warriors of the Wind Fire army had now shot towards him from all sides so that he could not escape again.
They did not immediately catch the figure who turned out to be a soldier.
The leader asked the soldier a question.
"Why are you following us?".
"Have we done anything wrong?".
"Indeed you didn't make the slightest mistake".
"But I have been commanded by My superiors to watch your every move in this city". Answer the soldier.
"Why do you have to watch our every move?". Ask the leader.
"For you are warriors who most likely have a bad purpose in our city". Answer soldier.
"Sorry sir, but the purpose of our arrival in this city is simply to buy the necessities of life in continuing our journey to the territory of the Gokenin empire".
"So why are you watching or suspecting us!?". Said the leader.
"Master! The human heart is hard to guess, so with your words alone it will not prove that you can be trusted". The soldier responded.
"So you want to get proof to trust us?".
"Alright if that's what you want". Said the leader in a tone of voice that began to be irritated to the soldier.
"Do you want to make trouble with me?". Asked the soldier because he had seen the change in attitude of the group leader in front of him.
