Splitting

Four brown-belt assassins galloped rapidly on the narrow road in the wilderness. Gu Shenwei and Maid Lotus were in the front. Twenty steps away from them were Wildhorse and Liuhua. They had stayed in this formation all along the way. Although some parts of the road were broken, they could still determine the route in the moonlight.

After traveling for more than a dozen kilometers, they finally saw a wisp of smoke rising from one side of the road at dawn.

They got off their horses and headed for the smoke. They spontaneously walked in a formation. Maid Lotus was at the forefront. Behind her and to her left and right, were Slave Huan and Wildhorse, who were guarding against flank attacks. Liuhua followed at the rear with a crossbow in hand.

It seemed that all the people in this camp were fast asleep. They did not see anyone on sentry duty.
