Song Yun Xiang shrugged.
He definitely wouldn’t force the other party to do anything if she didn’t want to. This was just a suggestion or perhaps, a question because of their current discussion.
“What do you plan to do, Jin Nian?” Gu Xia Mo suddenly asked.
Yan Jin Nian arched her eyebrows and then said, “There’s nothing much that can be done in the current situation. I’ll just help you to see when you’re interrogating them, am I right?”
“Yes.” Song Yun Xiang nodded.
Fang Sheng Lin yawned once again. “That’ll be very boring.”
Listening to these people’s confession of words, mixed with who knows how many lies, Fang Sheng Lin felt that it would be very annoying and tiring. He was sure that he would be bored to death if he had to follow and listen in to this matter.
“You don’t have to listen.” Song Yun Xiang shook his head. He definitely wouldn’t hope for Fang Sheng Lin to follow and listen in to the interrogation. If this man was there, he was sure that all Fang Sheng Lin did would be to make trouble.
It would be good if he was just beating up the prisoners.
If he ended up beating up the interrogator too, then Song Yun Xiang really have to kick Fang Sheng Lin out.
“Yes.” Fang Sheng Lin nodded. “Is there anything else that you would like to ask?”
“One more thing… Did you find any traces of the northern tribe’s camp?” Song Yun Xiang asked.
He had asked this question to the other scouts but their answers were all a consistent no. Considering that most scouts would not dare to leave too far away from their outpost, Song Yun Xiang was not too surprised.
But Fang Sheng Lin was different.
The scouts had told him that Fang Sheng Lin could be said to be extremely brave and often marched on his own.
Well, one or two scouts would still follow him.
Otherwise, Fang Sheng Lin might not be able to come back to their outpost.
It was a bit outrageous.
To be honest, Song Yun Xiang sincerely wondered whether his decision to let Fang Sheng Lin being a scout was a correct action or not. Because Fang Sheng Lin was really unreliable and this made Song Yun Xiang unwilling to let Fang Sheng Lin take action too much.
“Camp? No.” Fang Sheng Lin thought for a moment and then said, “But I think I found a remnant of their previous camp. It’s on the northwest of the outpost.”
He remembered seeing some remains of campfire when he was traveling further to the northwest. But because the other scouts were telling him not to go too far or they would have to stay overnight in the wilderness, Fang Sheng Lin didn’t stay there for long.
“You can actually find remains of campfire?” Gu Xia Mo looked at Fang Sheng Lin skeptically.
This man’s idiocy was quite famous in their previous world. It was to the point that people wondered whether this man would be able to survive without his family backing behind him.
After all, he was really…
*sigh*
“Of course I can!” Fang Sheng Lin retorted. “I’m not so stupid.”
“He has been living on his own in the past few years, so he should be able to recognize it,” Song Yun Xiang added.
“Yes! You know me so well, Yun Xiang.” Fang Sheng Lin laughed.
“But I doubted that you can truly survive without anyone helping you.”
Fang Sheng Lin: “…” the last sentence is really unnecessary.
The other three laughed unkindly when they saw Fang Sheng Lin’s face. It seemed that Fang Sheng Lin was really famous and even if they knew that he might be able to survive on his own, they were still skeptical.
To be honest, they actually got it right.
Fang Sheng Lin was taken care by the prime minister of Zhang Xu Kingdom for the first few years when he arrived in this world because of his talent. Because the latter wanted his ability, he was reused on the battlefield as a commander that opened up the path against the opposing army.
Not many people could possibly face Fang Sheng Lin’s strong physical strength.
After Zhang Xu Kingdom’s fall, Fang Sheng Lin was basically taken care by Long Qian Xing’s men. With him arranging Fang Sheng Lin’s affair clearly, there was no need for him to worry so much about most of his affairs.
But this didn’t mean that Fang Sheng Lin’s survival knowledge was zero.
He sometimes camped out on his own and hunted a few games to eat. It was also because of this that he was familiar with making fire, making temporary camps, and even the remains that left after they were done.
So when Fang Sheng Lin saw some traces of campfire, he could guess that the northern tribe might have been there for a period of time. The mark was very deep and it was not like a temporary campfire that would not last long.
“But it seems to have been quite some time because of the accumulation of dust on top of it,” Fang Sheng Lin added.
Hearing this, Song Yun Xiang nodded in understanding. He seemed to understand what Fang Sheng Lin was saying.
Perhaps a few years ago, the northern tribe was staying closer to the border but for some reasons, they moved.
Moving was not exactly surprising for the northern tribe.
But what made Song Yun Xiang concerned was the fact that they made their main tribe located not far from the border.
“Are you sure that it’s not marks from when they’re having their battle in the previous winter?” Gu Xia Mo asked.
After all, they would make temporary headquarter when they attacked Fan Yi Kingdom in the past.
“No, it’s too far away,” Fang Sheng Lin replied. “Unless they’re fighting on the plains… which I highly doubted.”
They had made such a tall wall and the height advantage. Why would they be willing to come down and meet with the enemy head on?
