Xu Xiaomo had been lying on her bed for two whole days. These two days, she had been sleeping on Nangong Xiao An's bed. Nangong Xiao An had someone bring a new bed to the army camp. However, he rarely rested. He would either stay at his desk and handle military matters, or he would come out to train. Nangong Xiao An and Xu Xiao Mo were not people who talked too much, and they gradually got used to each other's existence.

It was noon again. Usually, at this time, there would be a meal delivered to the tents by the soldiers. The wound on Xu Xiaomo's back had almost regenerated, and her life of leisure had left her creeped out.

"Niu Dazhuang, do you really think this is true? Would those bandits really chop someone up and turn them into a human meat bun? "

Xu Xiaomo sat up from her bed. She had been in the military camp for several days but hadn't checked the military tent. She changed into men's clothing and was about to leave when she heard a conversation from outside.

"That's right, we just went to the Wang Family Manor yesterday. Those bandits had their heads chopped off and hung on the Pagoda tree at the entrance of the manor. The skin on their face was cut off, and it was badly mutilated." "One of my men, a young man, threw up all over the ground as soon as he got there."

"Why are they all women? What about the men from the Wang Family Village? You've robbed everything inside? " The dark youth next to Niu Dazhuang didn't seem to be afraid at all. He poked his arm and asked.

"This," Niu Dazhuang scratched his head, "how did he know where the man went?" "How the f * ck would I know? A man might have already run away after losing his wife and daughter."

When Xu Xiaomo heard this, she could not hold it in anymore, and burst out in laughter. Niu Dazhuang was not happy with this young man asking about everything. He believed that this young man was deliberately making things difficult for him. Hearing that someone dared to mock him, his temper flared up and he looked around. There was only a man wearing blue linen clothes standing next to the general's tent. His clothes were out of place when compared to the uniform in the army camp.

"It's you!" Niu Dazhuang snorted coldly, his eyes narrowing into slits. This pale-faced young man was exactly the same as the young master beside General Wu. It was obvious that he was just an embroidered pillow.

Strange to say, why were there two embroidered pillows in the military camp these past two days? It's all oily and powdered.

"Hmph, with that girly face of yours, who knows if you're a relative of the general or the son of someone else …" Xu Xiaomo only smiled as he heard Niu Dazhuang's words, not paying much attention. When Nangong Xiao An made the decision to keep her by his side, she had already prepared to face all sorts of conjectures. These were all within her expectations. Compared to the grief from the annihilation of her family in her previous life, these were merely tickling.

"Shut up!" Xu Xiaomo looked in the direction of the voice. Who else could it be other than the person who called himself Wu Yan, who was standing by the fence?

She had already changed into a black, dark robe. She was smaller, and her clothes were loose on her body. The drum in front of her chest was gone. She must have been tied up. The jade crown on her head had also been replaced by a navy blue scarf, making her look much more heroic.

Niu Dazhuang glanced at Wu Yaner and said, "Yo, whoever you say is here. I was going to say, what's the matter?"

Wu Yaner ran over to Xu Xiaomo. She had finally managed to convince Wu Guangzhen to stay in the military base, but that was only if she didn't cause any trouble for him. Today, she finally found an empty space and came back with a bag in her hand that was emitting hot air.

Wu Yaner did not expect her luck to be so good. The moment she arrived, she saw Xu Mo standing outside the tent. It seemed that his injuries had almost healed. She was about to greet him when she heard Niu Dazhuang's strange words.

"I'll tell you, I'll tell you!" Wu Yaner's face was flushed red. As the young mistress of the Wu family, she had always been spoiled by others. How could she stand someone speaking to her like that? She ignored the things in her hand and threw it at Niu Dazhuang.

When Niu Dazhuang saw the package come at him, he wasn't really stupid. He dodged to the side, causing the package to fall to the ground. There was soup, water, and rice porridge all over the place.

"You, you —" Wu Yan'er was so angry that she was jumping up and down. She pointed at Niu Dazhuang, but was unable to say anything as she brandished her fist and charged towards him. She had brought Xu Xiaomo this meal because Niu Dazhuang had infuriated her, causing her to throw it away. Now, however, it had been wasted without hitting anyone.

"What are you doing!" A cool voice like a spring came out, instantly extinguishing Wu Yaner's anger. This voice's owner had been to Wu Guan-Zhen's tent before, and his ice-cold eyes looked at her like a knife cutting through water. She was really worried that he would see through her.

Niu Dazhuang looked resentfully at Nangong Xiao An, who was walking over. "General, I …"

"It's just a discussion about the bandits. There are some conflicts between the two sides, so don't worry, General." Niu Dazhuang looked at Xu Xiaomo in surprise. He thought this kid would take the opportunity to complain, but instead, things turned out to be better than what he expected. Niu Dazhuang felt that the person in front of him was not as annoying as he thought.

Wu Yaner stuck out her tongue at the cold Nangong Xiao An and hid behind Xu Xiaomo, secretly observing the two of them.

"Have you heard about the bandits? "If you have any opinions, please tell me."

The cold air on Nangong Xiao An's body disappeared. He had been worrying about the bandits for the past few days, and the trip he took with his troops just a few days ago had all gone to waste. After the Wang Family Village's scene had been widely publicized by these soldiers, the army was filled with the feeling of being a bandit and everyone was worried about being sent out. The generals discussed and did not come up with an effective solution.

It was not a good omen that the might of the army was halved before they even had the chance to face him.

"Let's talk inside." When Nangong Xiao An saw Xu Xiaomo's stiff body, he knew that it was because she had not fully recovered from her injuries and had stood there for too long. After Xu Ge returned, he specially called for someone to bring a letter to tell him to take good care of Xu Xiaomo. Only then did he find out that Xu Ge was the only one who could cause injuries to Xu Ge.

Seeing Xu Xiaomo walk so unnaturally, Nangong Xiao An sighed in his heart. She was a woman of great love, and was willing to suffer such hardships in the army because of Xu Ge. But where did her martial arts come from? Nangong Xiao An shook her head. Everyone had their own secrets. As long as she didn't have any intentions of harming others, there was no need to investigate this matter too deeply.

"Niu Dazhuang didn't want to enter the battle; he, a rough man, only knew how to use brute force and didn't know how to arrange a battle formation. It would be harder for him to explain the reason than to kill him. He wanted to take the opportunity to slip away." "You and Wu Yan, come in."

Niu Dazhuang could only brace himself and enter the military account. However, after entering the tent, he was attracted by the things inside the account. Looking around, this was the first time he had entered the general's tent. He was just a sergeant and had only ten men under him. How could he have the chance to see the general? He had to remember this well and brag to them when he returned.

Earlier, I heard from this elder brother that the day before yesterday, the general brought troops to kill bandits and arrived at the Wang Family Village. Nangong Xiao An nodded and brought them to a sand table.

On the sand table, he could see the mountains and rivers clearly, as well as the county city. Xu Xiaomo recognized the scene immediately. It was similar to what she had seen in her father's study in his previous life. As the former commander of the Hubai Army, it was only natural that his father would have these scenes within his family.

"This is the capital city, the Wang Family Village is located in the northwest direction of the capital city, the northeast side of the Hubby Army. "The day before yesterday, we set off immediately after receiving the news. It took us around two hours to travel from Hubai Army to the Wang Family Village."

Xu Xiaomo nodded thoughtfully, "Are all the heads hanging at the entrance of the village women?"

Nangong Xiao An didn't expect Xu Xiaomo to know about this. "Speaking of which, this is also a strange thing. The heads at the entrance of the village are all women and children. Not only that, even the other places that were attacked by the bandits earlier are like this."
