Chapter 244 Everyone, cheer up!
The man called Brother Guo took a deep drag of his cigarette, exhaled, threw the butt at his feet, and stomped it out. Judging from his expression, it seemed as if the cigarette butt he was stomping on was the Dragon Squad itself. After extinguishing the cigarette, he said, "You never know. After all, what we did this time was really too much. The HX police will definitely not let us go. So, it's not impossible that they'll send the Dragon Squad to hunt us down."
"What do we do now? Aren't we doomed?"
"Heh, look at you, such a coward. In this world, who would act like you? Aren't there hundreds of thousands of troops guarding this side of the border right now? No matter how powerful the Divine Dragon Team is, how can they possibly get past the many checkpoints of the YN Empire? Unless each of them grows wings."
"makes sense."
"Alright, stop worrying unnecessarily. Tell the brothers to be on their toes and not all of them to fall asleep. This is a critical time, and none of us can afford to be careless... Who's there? Come out."
A rustling sound, like stepping on leaves, came from not far away. Although the sound was soft, everyone present could hear it clearly. Brother Guo immediately stopped talking and shouted sharply. At the same time, he and the others grabbed their weapons and pointed their guns at the big tree not far away.
"Brother Guo, it's me."
A man peeked out mysteriously from behind the big tree and chuckled.
Brother Guo frowned slightly and said, "Little Ma, what are you doing there, acting so suspiciously?"
As Xiao Ma pulled up his pants, he walked out and chuckled, "I just really needed to pee! So..."
Brother Guo scolded, "Instead of standing guard properly, you're here to pee. Be careful, or I'll kill you. Get back to your post right now."
Xiao Ma quickly said, "Brother Guo, I just..."
"roll!"
Brother Guo's stern shout startled Little Ma, who slunk away as he went, muttering to himself, "Honestly, I was just looking for a place to take a piss, why get so angry! Besides, there are over a thousand brothers from the four major gangs, plus a thousand mercenaries, and the YN Empire's army guarding the outside. One more or one less makes no difference, is it really necessary?"
He came to a patch of dense grass and saw his companion dozing off under a big tree. He said impatiently, "Tumor, wake up and get to your post."
Seeing that the tumor didn't react at all, still leaning against the tree with its head down and not moving, he shook his head. He walked to another big tree and sat down. A wave of drowsiness washed over him, and he couldn't help but chuckle, mumbling, "Ah...so sleepy! Never mind, I'll take a nap first."
Just as I closed my eyes, I suddenly felt a cool sensation on my left temple, as if something was pressing against it. I thought it was the tumor playing a joke, so I didn't open my eyes and said, "Stop messing around, tumor. You've already taken a nap. It's my turn now."
As he spoke, he reached for his neck, but his hand touched the muzzle of a gun. He turned his head and his expression changed drastically. He quickly asked, "Who...who are you?"
The person holding a dagger to Xiao Ma's neck was none other than Huang Mengting. Huang Mengting said coldly, "If you don't want to die, don't make a sound. Otherwise, I guarantee your head will explode if I shoot you."
Upon hearing it was a woman, Xiao Ma trembled with fear and quickly covered his mouth with his hand. Without a second thought, he knew this woman holding a gun to his head was definitely an assassin sent by the HX Empire. If she was an assassin, what couldn't she cook? Especially female assassins; they were ruthless when killing, not even blinking an eye. Could it be that Liu Zi had already…? He glanced at Liu Zi again, his heart sinking.
Seeing Huang Mengting lower her voice and continue, "I'm going to ask you a question now, and you have to answer honestly. If you lie to me, I'll..."
"Ask away, ask away. I'll tell you anything I know," Xiao Ma quickly replied in a low voice.
"Very well, let me ask you, where are the Azure Dragon, White Tiger, Vermilion Bird, and Black Tortoise now?" Huang Mengting asked.
Upon hearing this, Xiao Ma replied, "I don't know where they are."
"Huh? You want to die, huh?"
As she spoke, Huang Mengting pushed the gun forward slightly, causing Xiao Ma's head to tilt to one side. Startled, Xiao Ma quickly said, "Really, I'll never lie to you. I really don't know where the Hall Master and the Azure Dragon Gang Leader are."
"Stop talking nonsense and get to the point, or I'll really shoot."
"I'm not lying to you. Even if you beat me to death, I still don't know where the gang leader and the others are!"
It was clear that Xiao Ma wasn't lying, so Huang Mengting suddenly reached out, her five fingers forming a knife, and swiftly chopped down at the back of Xiao Ma's neck. Xiao Ma's vision went black instantly, and before he could even scream, his head drooped.
Immediately afterwards, Huang Mengting looked around and then disappeared into the forest.
In the Green Dragon Gang, several men sat together smoking. The leader was a man named Gan Hao, whom the gang members called Brother Hao. They were engrossed in their cigarettes, none of them speaking. After a while, one of the men finished his cigarette and said, "Brother Hao, I don't think the HX military will do anything tonight. Why don't we get some sleep? The brothers are all exhausted."
Upon hearing this, Brother Hao said decisively, "No, none of us can let our guard down these next few days. No matter how tough or tiring it is, we have to get through it. Xiao Jin, go and tell the brothers to be on their toes and not to slack off."
Feeling rebuffed, Xiao Jin said "Oh" and got up to leave.
It was already 11:30 PM. Those sitting with Hao Ge were all laughing heartily. They'd been on the move all day, filled with anxiety and fear—no wonder they were exhausted! Hao Ge himself was also very tired, but the current situation didn't allow him to be careless. The gang leader had repeatedly emphasized that they absolutely couldn't let their guard down these next few days, or their lives would be in danger. He forced himself to stay alert, glanced at his brothers, shook his head, then stood up, stretched his limbs, and after feeling much better, said, "Get yourselves together! What kind of people are you all looking like?"
"I'm so sleepy, Hao-ge, can you let me take a nap? Or even just a quick rest?"
"No, get up, everyone. Just move around a bit and you'll be fine. Get up, get up. What time is it? If HX sends assassins, none of you will survive."
