Lee Shiyuan and everyone else present looked at Shi Ling in surprise. At this time, Lee Shiyuan said: "Placed outside the Yi Xiao City, could it be that Commander's words are meant to send the children within the Yi Xiao City over to Wolf Bandit?"
He shook his finger at Lee Shiyuan and said: "No no no, not long ago, I found a very good hiding place 30 degrees to the west of Yi Xiao City. It is a valley, and there are many caves in it, let alone accommodating 10,000 people, it wouldn't be a problem even if I were to double the number of people here!"
After Lee Shiyuan heard this, he repeated Shi Ling's words in his heart: "The Yi Xiao City west is thirty degrees, in a valley about ten miles away."
Lee Shiyuan immediately sneered. In Lee Shiyuan's memory, there was indeed a valley there, but as for whether he could hide there, he wasn't sure. However, looking at Shi Ling's appearance, it should be true.
At this moment, Shi Ling continued: "I plan to start tonight. I'll send 200 children to hide at that place and send several masters to escort them at the same time. As for the parents, I have a plan!"
At this time, Lee Shiyuan's gaze wavered and he thought: "Two hundred children?!" With these two hundred children, the adult should be able to handle it, right? "
Thinking about this, Lee Shiyuan did not have any expression on his face, but his heart was filled with joy. At this time, Yun Zhiqian suddenly opened her mouth and said, "Alright, Commander Shi Ling, I'll leave this matter to you. You must handle it well."
Shi Ling immediately cupped his fist and nodded to Yun Zhiqian. At the same time, Yun Zhiqian told everyone, "Also, during today's secret meeting, you must not leak any more information, or else don't blame me for being merciless!"
As she said this, Yun Zhiqian stood up from her seat and a long sword appeared in her hand. Immediately, she slashed at a table beside her and instantly cut that table in half.
Yun Zhiqian said, "Alright, the meeting is over here. You guys can go back to your work."
Everyone nodded in agreement before retreating.
At this moment, just as Lee Shiyuan walked out of the conference hall's entrance, hurried footsteps sounded out from behind him. Lee Shiyuan frowned and turned his head to look, only to see that Shi Ling suddenly charged towards him. As the distance between them was too close, the two of them almost fell to the ground at the same time.
Seeing that, a few city guards rushed over to support Shi Ling and said, "Commander, are you alright? Are you okay? "
As for Lee Shiyuan and the others, they did not pay any attention to him. After all, Shi Ling was their superior, but at this moment, Shi Ling let out a dry laugh and said, "It's nothing, it's nothing. I was in a hurry to leave just now, so I tripped over it. Oh right, who are you, are you alright?"
Saying that, Shi Ling asked Lee Shiyuan, who was climbing up from the ground. Lee Shiyuan merely snorted and ignored Shi Ling, turned around and left.
As he watched Lee Shiyuan leave, the corner of Shi Ling's mouth slightly raised. Immediately, he heard Shi Ling say to the four officials, "Everyone, I want you guys to do something for me."
The four officials clasped their fists towards Shi Ling and said, "We are willing to work for the Lord Commander."
Shi Ling nodded and said, "Go find a few carriages and scarecrows!"
Hearing that, the four officials all had strange expressions on their faces and asked, "Scarecrow? What does the Lord Commander want with scarecrows? "
Shi Ling said with a serious face, "Why are you asking so much? "Hurry up and go!"
The four lieutenants didn't say anything else and bowed to Shi Ling before leaving. Shi Ling took a deep breath and raised his head to look at the sky. He said, "It's only a few more hours and the sky will be dark."
Yun Zhiqian walked over at this moment. She took a glance at the direction Lee Shiyuan left in and said, "The item has already been placed on his body?"
Shi Ling nodded. Yun Zhiqian pursed her lips, but didn't say anything.
Six hours later …
When the sky gradually darkened, within the Yi Xiao City, a black shadow started to jump back and forth. But what was shocking was that this person was actually just a black shadow without form, escaping the Yi Xiao City just like that under the watch of several experts from the Yi Xiao City.
The black shadow seemed to be invisible in the night. Its speed was extremely fast. Not long later, it arrived outside a wasteland. Soon after, it entered a protruding pile of earth.
Beneath the pile of earth, there was actually a corridor that connected to the outside world.
At the moment, there was an old man sitting cross-legged in the cellar. It was an old man, his hair had already been cut off, and his back was bent extremely heavily. His eyes were cloudy as he watched the black figure enter, and he immediately asked, "Did you bring the thing?"
When the black shadow arrived in front of the old man, it first wiggled, then it slowly transformed into a human figure. Gradually, the black color retreated, revealing a delicate and pretty face. It was Lee Shiyuan.
At this moment, Lee Shiyuan took out a jade plate from his Storage Ring. He passed it over to the old man with both hands and said: "Master, the patrolling maps for the officers and soldiers after Yi Xiao City have been drawn here."
The old man nodded his head lightly, and immediately brought the jade plate over. He scanned it with his mana, and after confirming that it was something he truly wanted, he said: "Very good, not bad."
Lee Shiyuan nodded slightly, but then said, "Oh yeah, Master, I still have one more thing to say, I don't know if I should say it."
The elder glanced at Lee Shiyuan and said, "Speak!"
Lee Shiyuan nodded in agreement, then said: "Tonight, around midnight, the Yi Xiao City s are thirty degrees to the west, about five kilometers away from the west, and there will be an escort team from Yi Xiao City!"
Hearing that, the old man's eyes lit up, and said: "This time, what good thing does Yi Xiao City have to protect?"
Lee Shiyuan shook his head and told them about Shi Ling's proposal to gather all the children in the city together to protect them. After the old man heard this, he couldn't help but laugh and immediately shook his head. He said, "What an ignorant bunch of juniors."
Lee Shiyuan asked again, "Then Master, should we …"
As he spoke, Lee Shiyuan made a choking gesture.
The elder nodded his head and said with a smile, "Yes, of course. Although there are only two hundred children this time, it is enough for our leader."
With that, the old man patted Lee Shiyuan's shoulder and said, "Not bad, you actually got such important information. It seems like my years of training you have not been in vain!"
Lee Shiyuan said with a faint smile, "Sorry, Master."
The old man said, "Alright, you can go back. I will take care of this matter later."
Lee Shiyuan nodded and his body once again twisted. Then, he disappeared on the spot and turned into a black shadow as he flew away.
Very quickly, the black shadow that Lee Shiyuan had transformed into returned into the Yi Xiao City, and like before, was not detected by any experts.
Soon after, he returned to his mansion and changed out of his clothes. He laid on his bed and turned off the lights, as if nothing had happened.
At this time, a servant of Lee Shiyuan's mansion arrived in front of Lee Shiyuan's door and said: "Old master, old master, are you asleep?"
Lee Shiyuan frowned. He didn't get up from the bed but directly said to the person outside the door, "He's asleep. What's the matter?"
The servant outside said, "It's the lord of City Lord's Mansion. They want to invite you over to take a look at City Lord's Mansion."
When Lee Shiyuan heard that, his pupils suddenly contracted!
