Chapter 86 Spy from out of state
Two long-tusked wild boars fell to the ground with a loud bang.

Four men stood aside, panting. One of them kicked a long-tusked boar's head twice, as if he wanted to say something.

At this moment, he suddenly heard a few muffled "bang" sounds. Turning his head, he saw his three companions rolling their eyes, their feet going soft like cooked noodles, and they fainted on the ground.

The man was startled and looked around hurriedly, shouting, "Who? Who is attacking?"

Just as he turned around and didn't see any suspicious signs, he turned back to the original direction, and saw a man standing a few steps in front of him, looking at him calmly.

The man's face was not scary.

His expression was not ferocious.

But when this person saw it, he instantly felt an endless chill in his heart, and was so scared that he instinctively stepped back.

"You...you...who are you?"

Geng Xuan said: "Answer me a few questions."

"You...you...ah!"

"Whoosh!"

A dart with blood not yet completely dried flew out and pierced the man's foot directly.

The man, who was originally a little confused about the situation, became completely obedient after letting out a scream.

"Now, can you answer a few questions for me?" Geng Xuan asked.

The man swallowed hard and said in a hoarse voice: "You...you ask!"

"What is your name?"

"Wang...Wang Fu."

"How old is this year?"

"Thirty-two."

"Married?"

"Knot...Knotted."

"do you have any kid?"

"There is."

"several?"

"One."

"Son or daughter?"

"son."

Although he didn't know the purpose of the person in front of him asking these questions, Wang Fu's nervous mood was relieved by these simple and clear questions one after another.

"How many years have you been a spy for the out-of-state army?"

"Five years...ah!"

Wang Fu instinctively said "five years", then realized what the other party asked and what he answered, let out a scream, and then collapsed to the ground.

He looked towards Geng Xuan with fear in his eyes.

He didn't understand how the other party knew such fatal information, but what he did understand was that if this news leaked out, not only would he die.

His whole family will die!

Geng Xuan acted as if he didn't notice his violent reaction. His expression remained calm, and he seemed no different from when he first appeared.

"What do you spies from other states usually do?"

Wang Fu, who was in a state of panic, heard this and said hurriedly, as if he had grasped a life-saving straw:
"We actually just occasionally collect information about Kangle Market and the surrounding areas, which are all things that can be easily found."

Geng Xuan asked again: "After you collect this information, how do you pass it on?"

Wang Fu said: "No need to pass it on, a special envoy will come to get it."

"How often?"

"No... not necessarily. Sometimes it's a year, sometimes it's a few months... The last two times were relatively close, only three months apart."

"Why did you want to kill Geng Biao?"

"I... I don't understand what you mean - ah."

This person suddenly cried out in surprise. This was because a companion who had fainted on the ground next to him showed signs of waking up. Seeing Wang Fu's cooperation, Geng Xuan sent the waking person to sleep to avoid interrupting his rhythm.

The kind of sleep where you never wake up.

He also reminded: "Changpingfang, Geng Biao!"

Geng Biao is the real name of my father.

Wang Fu suddenly realized, then was shocked, and then felt a chill.

The person in front of me couldn't have mentioned this person for no reason. There must be a reason for him to mention this person now...

Is this because of Geng Biao’s incident?

He stood there in a daze, not knowing how to respond. Geng Xuan waited for a while, and seeing that he didn't move, he urged:

"say."

Wang Fu still did not answer, but turned his head to look at his companion who had already died beside him, and said with gritted teeth:

"I'm dead, right?"

Geng Xuan did not give a direct answer, which was tantamount to his agreement.

Wang Fu's face turned pale, and he said with a hard mouth:
"Since you won't give me a chance to live, why should I cooperate with you?"

"…How old is your son now? How about I do you a favor and let you see him before you die?"

Wang Fu, who had been steadfast and unyielding just a moment ago, screamed and threw himself in front of Geng Xuan, saying, "No, no, no, I will answer whatever you ask, but don't involve my family, please! Please!"

"Why did you kill Geng Biao?" Geng Xuan asked again.

This time, Wang Fu did not hesitate at all and replied immediately:
“This is an order specially assigned by the special envoy. He also promised us that if we do a good job, he will give us a huge reward.

The captain and all of us will be formally included in the state army. In the future, as long as we have enough military merits, we can exchange them for any secret technique or skill."

At this point, he seemed to remember something and said quickly:
“Captain, yes, Captain, he is actually the most familiar with these things. The rest of our team were developed by him.

At the beginning, he was the only one working for the out-of-state army. In order to become the captain and earn military merit, he dragged a few of us into it.

He is the one who knows the most about all matters, and he is also the one who has the most contact with the special envoys.

Whatever you want to know, he knows it best! "

Speaking of this, Wang Fu seemed to have turned into a resentful woman.

"We didn't know he was working for the out-of-state army at first. By the time we found out, we all had evidence against him and he couldn't escape..."

Seeing that he had the potential to become Xianglin Sao, Geng Xuan "comforted" him with just one sentence.

"I have already killed the captain who dragged you into this."

"..."

Wang Fu was so shocked that he was speechless again. He was confused and wondered whether he should say thank you.
"So, is "The Running Dog" the reward given by the special envoy?"

"……Yes."

Since the captain is dead, the other two people who left with the captain must also be dead.

What did the person in front of him know from them?

Maybe, he already knew all the things he asked me, and he just came to me to verify them?
With these thoughts in his mind, Wang Fu completely gave up struggling.

"Then why did the special envoy ask you to kill Geng Biao?"

"He said Geng Biao was a traitor and deserter, and that our actions against him were an enforcement of military law."

Geng Xuan thought for a moment and asked again:

"…When did the last special envoy come?"

Before this, he did know a lot of information at the bottom of the cliff.

But at that time, it was basically the other party who was talking, and he just asked a question occasionally.

In addition, Geng Xuan was greatly shocked after hearing this information, and he did not have time to think about many things.

It was not until I came here and thought about it over and over again in my mind that I gradually tasted more of its meaning.

The questions he asked at this moment seemed random, but they actually contained many very critical guesses and judgments.
