"What's going on? I feel a bit dizzy too."
As Ku Teng was pondering, he suddenly felt a wave of dizziness and weakness.
He looked around, but found no miasma in the air, so it didn't seem to be poisoning.
However, when he carefully observed the surrounding terrain, his heart suddenly trembled, as if he had an ominous premonition. The terrain here was the lowest, with open highlands all around.
According to Chinese military strategy, this was a place easily surrounded.
Moreover, the treasure map they had obtained earlier was too easy to get. Could it be a trap?
Were there people behind them planning to catch them in the act?
"They're over there, surround them all!"
Just as he was lost in thought, a woman's voice suddenly came from a distance.
Immediately after, a group of armed police officers emerged from all directions, rushing towards them.
Seeing this, Ku Teng finally understood!
"As expected, it's a trap. Retreat quickly."
Ku Teng shouted, thinking that the treasure map was already in his possession and he absolutely couldn't let it fall into the hands of the police.
The ninjas around him immediately protected him, while the rest concentrated in one direction, intending to carve a bloody path for Ku Teng.
The leader of the police was Murong Xue. She knew that Ku Teng's subordinates were poisoned, so even if they resisted, they wouldn't be her match.
As she approached Ku Teng and his men, she quickly signaled her subordinates to surround them.
Ku Teng's ninjas, filled with killing intent, shouted "Kill, kill, kill!" and charged at the police.
Bang bang!
The police's weapons fired continuously. Before they could even get close, many had already been hit by firearms and fell to the ground.
The remaining men, though they reached the police, were weakened and unable to unleash their ninja techniques. Their combat skills were no different from ordinary people.
The police easily subdued them one by one, pinning them to the ground and handcuffing them.
Seeing this situation, Ku Teng was extremely worried.
If they delayed any longer, they wouldn't be able to escape. In a moment of desperation, he noticed a dense forest nearby. He ordered his subordinates, "You guys cover me, snatch some weapons, and carve out a path for me."
"Yes, Mr. Ku Teng, we will protect you to the death."
As soon as the ninjas finished speaking, they were ready to attack. They protected Ku Teng and then gradually approached the police near the forest.
When they were less than ten meters away from the police, Ku Teng suddenly shouted for them to charge forward.
They charged forward like madmen, reaching the police and engaging in close-quarters combat.
During the fight, they desperately snatched a few weapons and fired shots into the sky, drawing everyone's attention.
The main force of the police was focused on dealing with these ninjas, which provided Ku Teng with an opportunity to escape.
Ku Teng knelt on the ground, quickly weaving through the gaps in the crowd, and soon escaped the throng, heading into the forest with the treasure map.
As long as the green hills remain, there will be wood to burn!
After escaping the danger, Ku Teng looked back at the police, clenched his fists, and said, "You want to catch me, Ku Teng? Impossible. The humiliation I suffered today will make you Chinese pay a hundredfold the painful price."
With that, Ku Teng turned and immediately ran out of the mountains.
Meanwhile, Ku Teng was completely unaware that an ambush awaited him outside the mountains.
The flowers were wilting, waiting for Chun to arrive. She thought Ku Teng wouldn't come from this direction again.
Just as she was about to lose patience, a subordinate suddenly pointed towards the depths of the forest and said, "Miss Fengchun, look, isn't that Ku Teng!"
"He's really here?"
Zao Ri Fengchun looked over and indeed saw Ku Teng's figure, her face lighting up with joy!
She immediately raised her hand and ordered her subordinates to rush over, surround Ku Teng on the spot, and bring him back to Zao Ri Fengchun.
When he saw Zao Ri Fengchun, his face showed great excitement, thinking that Zao Ri Fengchun was there to pick him up.
He said excitedly, "Little Fengchun, it's so good you're here. Uncle was ambushed today, and all my subordinates were defeated. Hurry and take Uncle away."
"Ku Teng, you cunning old fox, still acting in front of me."
Zao Ri Fengchun revealed her true colors, glaring at Ku Teng and saying, "My father actually believed you, a traitor. You want to embezzle the treasure map and cause so much trouble in China. You are unforgivable."
"What did you say?"
Ku Teng froze on the spot, asking in shock, "What's wrong, Little Fengchun? Why do you suspect me? I almost lost my life to get the treasure map."
"Lost your life? I think you staged all of that yourself."
Zao Ri Fengchun sneered and continued, "Do you think I don't know that you actually obtained the treasure map long ago? You came here today just to eliminate the treasure hunters who could threaten you."
"But you didn't expect the police to track your movements and come to arrest you."
"Little Fengchun, you... how could you think I already had the treasure map? I only just found out about its whereabouts. I snatched the treasure map from those treasure hunters just now," Ku Teng explained with wide eyes.
"Heh, stop acting. I have all your evidence. I bribed one of your subordinates long ago, and he tipped me off, telling me all your schemes."
"Now that you've fallen into my hands, I will eliminate you, a traitor, on behalf of my father today."
A murderous glint flashed in Zao Ri Fengchun's eyes, and she ordered her subordinates, "You guys, take him back and detain him. After I report to my father, let him decide his fate."
"Yes, Miss Fengchun."
Two ninjas acted simultaneously, apprehending Ku Teng on the spot, retrieving the treasure map from him and handing it over to Zao Ri Fengchun, then escorting him to the car.
To this day, Ku Teng still doesn't understand who is framing him!
After Zao Ri Fengchun left the mountains with Ku Teng, she sent a text message to Li Yang, informing him that the mission was complete and inviting him to dinner that evening.
"Really?"
Fang Xiaoqing heard the good news and kissed Li Yang on the cheek, saying with a smile, "Brother Li Yang, you're amazing! With these Japanese spies caught, the Jiangcheng antique industry will no longer be plagued by corruption."
"Yes, now that these people are caught, I should also leave Jiangcheng," Li Yang said with a deep tone.
