Lin'an City was an important checkpoint for the Wu Kingdom to prevent the Xuanyuan Kingdom's army from converging with the Great Xia's army. In order to prevent anyone from spreading the news outside or spies from sneaking into the city, the Wu Kingdom's army took turns patrolling the city 24 hours a day, guarding the entire Lin'an City tightly.
In the middle of the night, the sound of the patrol team's footsteps and armor could be heard from time to time on the streets. The sound was uniform, making one inexplicably panic.
When the sound above gradually faded away, a light cracking sound suddenly sounded from an abandoned courtyard beside them.
The stone was pushed away, and a young man crawled out of the hole first. Right on his heels was another young man. After the young man stood still and looked around to make sure that there was no danger, he squatted down and pulled a middle-aged man with white hair up from below. Behind the white-haired man was a masked man in black.
