  Will be calculated as will be charged

  The controlled Cuiyu stared blankly at Yunxiangtian and Hongshannu who were walking slowly towards her, shocked to the point of being tongue-tied.

  Yun Xiang smiled with his eyes closed and said, "Cui Yu young lady, no, Chuan Xiong Mu Zhaizi miss. You should be called Sakura Team Leader, you finally dare to show your true face. These few years letting you serve tea and do chores as a servant is really an injustice to you."

  The newly untied Yezi Chun looked at Yun Xiang Tian with a puzzled expression and asked: "Young Master Yun, what is going on here?"

  Yesterday, Yun Xiang Tian and others were discussing whether Ye Zi Chun was a cherry blossom or not. Suddenly, someone rushed in from outside the cave. The person saw Wang Furen and knelt down on the ground with a thud. Wang Furen quickly helped him up and said: "Feng Er Xia, what are you doing? Where have you been for so many days?"

  "Madam, Feng has gone through nine deaths and one life, almost never seeing you again!" After finishing speaking, he unbuttoned his shirt, revealing a body covered in scars.

  Before the Wang family was slaughtered, Wang Yuanwai had adopted two sons, and Feng Tianxiong was one of them. He gained Wang Yuanwai's trust and made great contributions to the Wang family through thick and thin. A few days ago, Feng Tianxiong went down the mountain to buy daily necessities but unfortunately was discovered by a traitor, who leaked the news and got him caught by the Japanese army. Although the Japanese army tortured him several times, he didn't say a word. Later, they brought his old mother to threaten him. Helpless, Feng Tianxiong thought: "If my mother is going to suffer anyway, why not use this opportunity to find out who betrayed me?" So he agreed to leave his mother as a hostage and return to the mountain stronghold as a Japanese spy, but only if they told him who had sold him out. The Japanese agreed to his terms and brought in one of his acquaintances.

  Hong Shangu hurriedly asked: "Feng Erxia, you have been living in the cave for many years, and your name is not well known to people. Where did this acquaintance come from?"

  "Feng Tianxiong let out a long sigh and said: 'Not only are they old acquaintances, but also very familiar, extremely familiar!'"

  As soon as he saw Feng Tianxiong, he smiled and said: "Second brother, how are you? I've been thinking about you to death!"

  Feng Tianxiong was shocked and said: "Big brother, what are you doing here?"

  The newcomer was Feng Tianxiong's sworn elder brother, Wu Zhuangshan. He had once formed a bond of brotherhood with Feng Tianxiong and Wang Yunwai's son. When the Wang family's large stronghold was first built, he had committed an offense against the family rules and been expelled from the Wang family. From then on, there had been no news of him, and it was unexpected to meet him here again.

  Wu Zhuangshan laughed and said, "What? Second brother doesn't want to see me? We brothers haven't seen each other for over a decade, have we? I've long wanted to drink and chat with you again, but couldn't find the opportunity. The other day, I coincidentally ran into you on the street, and fearing that you wouldn't accept my invitation, I asked the imperial army for help. Don't blame me, brother."

  Feng Tianxiong felt a surge of anger in his heart, but he suppressed it and coldly smiled: "Big brother, good move. I really admire you for going to such great lengths to get me to drink with you, even mobilizing the imperial army. It seems that my face is very important indeed."

  Wu Zhuangshan naturally heard Feng Tianxiong's sarcasm, and he smiled awkwardly: "Good brother, it's my fault for not letting you suffer. But on the other hand, if it weren't for the imperial army's help, you wouldn't have thought of sharing wealth and glory with me."

  Feng Tianxiong burst out laughing and looked at Wu Zhuangshan with a scornful gaze, saying: "Good, very good, a glorious and wealthy life that is only skin-deep, a glorious and wealthy life that is gained by flattering one's master, a glorious and wealthy life that erases one's conscience. Good, it's really good. I suppose big brother has already forgotten about the Wang family."

  Wu Zhuang Mountain looked at Feng Tianxiong, and his eyes suddenly lit up. He then used his gaze to point towards the outside of the door. Feng Tianxiong's heart skipped a beat as he followed Wu Zhuang Mountain's hint and looked towards the entrance. Relying on his many years of experience traveling the jianghu, he knew that someone was eavesdropping outside the door.

  Only Wu Zhuangshan lightly coughed twice and said, "Younger brother, don't get excited, come on, first drink some water." He picked up the cup of water and handed it to Feng Tianxiong, his eyes blinking fiercely.

  Feng Tianxiong waved his hand and knocked over the water cup, saying: "I don't dare to trouble Big Brother, Big Brother is a red man in front of the imperial army, Little Brother really can't bear it. You'd better go back."

  He hastily stood up, wiping the water on the table with his left hand, and quickly glanced at the door. With his right hand, he wrote a few words on the table, then looked at Feng Tianxiong, who responded with his eyes. He waved his hand to erase the writing, saying: "You are sarcastic in every sentence, mocking in every word. Do you really want your mother to suffer with you? You keep talking about the Wang family, what's good about them? I used to serve the Wang family faithfully, never uttering a word of complaint even when I was in trouble. But for a small matter, they used the family law to drive me out of the house. Honestly, if I don't destroy the Wang family, I won't be able to ease my hatred. I swear I won't give up. You take care of yourself." He then turned and left.

  Wu Zhuangshan stepped forward and left as soon as the Japanese agent Matsumoto walked in. Matsumoto glanced at the water-stained table and said, "Mr. Feng, I have fulfilled your request. Please keep your promise and think of your mother; we all hope she can live a good life."

  Feng Tianxiong painfully lowered his head and said: "Speak, what can I do?"

  Hongshan girl hurriedly asked: "What did the little devil ask you to do?" Yunxiangtian, however, wanted to ask: "What was written on the table?"

  Feng Tianxiong said: "The little devils asked me to pass on the intelligence from the stronghold and be ready to respond to the devils' attack on Fengling Mountain at any time."

  "How is it transmitted? Is there a contact person?"

  Feng Tianxiong smiled wryly and said, "The little devil told me that whenever there is important information, I should draw a pattern of three concentric circles on the wall of the assembly hall in Anmin Village. Then, at midnight, go to the north slope of Fengling Mountain and wait among the bushes."

  Hong Shangu listened and sat down on the stool with a thud, saying in a bad temper: "Damn it, this little devil is too cunning, always leaving a trick up his sleeve."

  Yun Xiang Tian sank into thought for a moment before suddenly asking: "What did Wu Zhuang Shan write on the table?"

  Feng Tianxiong shook his head and said: "Sorry, Yun Gongzi, I can't say that. When the time comes to catch the traitor, you will naturally know."

  Yun Xiang Tian asked again: "Where were you caught? Do you know who the contact person is?"

  Feng Tianxiong thought for a moment and said: "I was caught at Lingfeng. Her real name is Chuan Xiongmu Nai Zi, codename 'Sakura'."

  Yun Xiangtian felt the severity of the situation, he didn't know how many Japanese spies were lurking in Lingfeng City. But it was certain that the Japanese army had already shown signs of attacking Lingfeng. Did Huang Camp Commander know?

  Madam Wang interrupted his thoughts and anxiously asked: "Xiang Tian, what should we do?"

  Yun Xiang Tian calmly said, "Feng Er Xia is willing to sacrifice his mother for the greater good and cleverly set up a plan to lure the enemy out. Why don't we follow this method to lead the snake out of its hole?"

  Then Wang Qi and Feng Tianxiong were arranged to perform a play, successfully capturing the Japanese spy Kawabata Koji.

  Chuan Yu Mu was caught, facing Yun Xiang Tian's disdain, without showing the expected panic, but instead smiled and said: "I and Miss Zhu are like sisters, nothing to be wronged about. Yesterday evening before going down the mountain, I made a bowl of ice sugar silver ear soup for my mistress, she said it was very well done, she liked drinking it, and asked me to make more for her when I return."

  Yun Xiang Tian was shocked, Hong Shangyu had already rushed up, she grabbed Mu Nai's collar and angrily said: "What did you put in the soup?"

  "What's been released? Guess."

  Xiu Zhu lay quietly in bed, her face rosy and breathing normally. It was already past noon, but she still slept soundly. The village doctor had finished taking her pulse and said: "Miss's pulse has signs of poisoning, but I don't know what kind of poisonous thing she ate?"

  "What's going on? Do you have an antidote?" Red Hill Girl asked anxiously.

  Lang Zhong looked somewhat fearful and said timidly: "I don't know what poison was used, it's not suitable for configuring an antidote, so... I don't know how to proceed for the time being."

  "Let me take a look," said Yezi Chun as he pulled open the door of the room.

  Yun Xiangtian knew that Ye Zichun was a descendant of a traditional Chinese medicine family, his grandfather had been an imperial physician in the Qing dynasty, and his medical skills were exquisite and highly respected at the time. Ye Zichun had already mastered the art of Qigong when he was young. Later, seeing the Japanese invaders ravaging the country, he abandoned his medical practice to join the army.

  After finishing the pulse diagnosis, Yezi took out a silver needle and pricked the middle finger of Xiu Zhu's right hand, carefully taking out a drop of blood. She examined the color and density of the blood, then sniffed it under her nose. After pondering for a long time, she slowly said: "This poison I have not seen before, but I can confirm that it does not cause great harm to humans. Its main component has a sedative effect, putting people into a deep sleep. I will first give her a dose of awakening soup and see how it takes effect."

  After a flurry of activity, Xiuzhu was still asleep as usual. Hong Shangu couldn't sit still anymore, she pulled out the shotgun from her waist and was about to go kill Chuan Xiongmu in a fit of rage. Yunxiang Tian grabbed her and said: "Auntie, even if you killed Mu, Xiuzhu wouldn't recover immediately. I think it's better this way." He whispered a few words, and everyone present burst out laughing. Hong Shangu punched Yunxiang Tian and scolded him: "You little brat, why didn't you say that earlier? You let me become the laughing stock of these idiots like an ant on a hot pot!"

  Chuan Yumu saw, Yun Xiangtian and Hong Shangu smiled and walked in. She was quite surprised, she originally thought that Yun Xiangtian and Hong Shangu would be furious with her, threatening or even beating her. Or begging her in a low voice to give them the antidote. But they were talking about another topic instead.

  Hongshan girl stroked her snowy white jade hand, saying casually: "Yu'er, is this person really useful? I think it's better to get rid of him."

  Yun Xiang Tian clasped his hands together in front of his chest, looking at Mu Nai Zi with great interest and said: "I want to get some information from her mouth, after all she is the leader of the Falcon Action Team. If she doesn't speak then you can just kill her with one knife, anyway she's a spy, not a prisoner of war."

  "Kill her with one sword?" Hong Shangu shook his head and said: "It won't. She got rid of Zhu'er, making me sit firmly in the position of bandit chief, and there was one less enemy hand competing with me for the position of bandit chief. She helped me so much, wouldn't it be a waste to kill her with one sword? I have my own way to deal with her." She took out a small porcelain bottle from her bosom, poured out several red pills and continued: "This is Autumn Toad Dew, a gift from a friend. He said that after taking this thing, countless small boils that itch unbearably will appear all over the body, especially on the face, which will be scratched until blood and pus flow. It's really pitiful."

  Yun Xiangtian reached out to grab the small bottle, but Hong Shanguo dodged it cleverly. She looked at Yun Xiangtian in surprise and said: "What do you want to do? Want to be a hero saving a beauty? Let me tell you, she's Japanese, can't be your wife."

  Yun Xiang Tian smiled wryly and said: "Who wants her as a wife? It's just that doing this is a bit cruel."

  "Cruel?" Hong Shangu's expression turned exceptionally cold and ruthless, her teeth clenched in a vicious snarl. "At dawn tomorrow, when the medicine takes effect, I'll throw her onto the main street of Lingfeng. I want our brothers to see just how much I detest the person who killed our future chieftain."

  "Miss didn't die, I have an antidote."

  Hong Shangu looked extremely tense, and with a swift movement, she rushed forward, covering Mu Nai's mouth with her hand. "Yu'er, come quickly to help your aunt. As soon as the medicine enters her mouth, she won't be able to speak in an instant." Yun Xiang Tian hurried over to help Hong Shangu pry open Mu Nai's mouth.

  The foolish monk walked in and saw this situation, and couldn't help but ask: "Junior sister, what are you doing?"

  Hong Shangu and Yun Xiangtian were stunned. Mu Nai Zi took advantage of their distraction, turned his head and shouted loudly: "Miss Xiuzhu, you're not dead!"

  Hong Shangu hurriedly covered the wooden box's mouth with her left hand and pulled out a pistol with her right. The foolish monk stretched out his hand to block, but only heard a "peng" sound as the bullet pierced through the roof.

  "Are you trying to borrow a knife to kill someone and monopolize the position of leader?" the monk thundered.
