Kapitel 606: Chapter 573: Fast as a Ghost

"My lord?"

Zheng Rusheng and Liu Shouping turned their heads to look back into the distance.

The sky was clear.

Moonlight filtered through the thin clouds, causing faint shadows to drift.

Not to mention any unusual phenomena, the weather grew colder, and even birds were rarely seen.

"It's nothing," Liang Qu returned to his senses, pointing forward, "You go ahead. Six miles south there's an outpost. Wait for me there."

Zheng Rusheng and Liu Shouping looked at each other in confusion.

"Just the two of us?"

"Yes!"

Without waiting for the two to agree, Liang Qu gently squeezed his horse's sides, leapt out of the bushes, and disappeared into the forest with several bounds.

Zheng Rusheng and Liu Shouping had no choice but to continue escorting Zhao Xueyuan according to orders.
