What Miao Qingshan wanted to eat most at the moment was food from the village .
“Whatever . I’m not in the mood for anything much,” Miao Qingshan replied with a smile . His smile looked rather bitter . There was no point in thinking about any of it .
Miao Tianchuan chuckled for a bit before lighting up a cigarette .
“I’ll go get us something to eat,” he said . “It is the new year after all . ”
Before long he returned with a lot of good food .
The two men tidied up the abandoned house a little . Although it looked less messy, it still did not look like home .
The place remained dilapidated and cold .
“I guess we’ll have to make do with what we’ve got,” Miao Tianchuan said .
“It’s alright,” Miao Qingshan said .
Although he said that, his thoughts were completely different .
Am I really going to keep living like this?
Nobody liked being a rat kept on the run, hiding everywhere and being practically rootless .
They made do with the place and ate their food .
The cold wind outside seeped through the cracks in the walls of that rundown house, making the place chilly .
Miao Qingshan laid on a makeshift bed . He was unable to sleep . Miao Tianchuan, who was not all that far away from him, was unable to sleep as well .
The two of them had different thoughts about things .
The night slowly passed .
“I’ll head out for a bit . ”
In the morning, Miao Tianchuan left their temporary residence not long after the sun rose .
He County was filled with joy and festivities .
A great majority of businesses and factories were closed for the holiday . People who were working or doing business out of town returned to their homes to be with their families . The entire place looked lively and peaceful .
Things are quite lively!
Miao Tianchuan walked on a street of the tiny county town . He felt the spirit of the holiday all around him .
The people around him were busy, warm, and happy .
I really don’t want to ruin this .
He walked over to an old, rundown building . It was the small county town’s city council building . The core leaders and some administrative departments were still working inside it .
Is this the place?
He stood outside and stared at the building for a bit before leaving .
It was lunchtime .

Most people returned home for lunch . A few people remained behind at the building to eat . There was a canteen in there . The food tasted rather good, and it was affordable .
The entire place was empty after lunch .
The day quickly turned into night .
Something big happened in He County .
Most administrative personnel were hospitalized . They were vomiting or had diarrhea . Guo Zhenghe was one of those people .
It was food poisoning, and there were many people affected .
The entire city was immediately on alert .
It was a severe case and a provocation to the local government . It was something that had never happened before .
After receiving the news, special task forces were set up in the county and city to investigate the case . Leave for all personnel were revoked . All available manpower was focused on solving the case .
Tens of people suffered food poisoning in one go . Furthermore, all of them were government servants . Some were even persons-in-charge at key posts . It was something very severe . Worse still, the top figure in the county—Secretary Guo—was poisoned, and he was in dire shape .
“Are they nuts?”
Yang Guanfeng and Lu Xiufeng rushed to the scene . After seeing how severe the case was, they were both shocked .
“This is practically a declaration of war!”
“Enough with sentiments . We best get to work solving what is happening right before us . ”
“The doctors here are not going to be able to do much . They aren’t good enough . We have to get to the Valley of Thousands of Medicine . ”
“We don’t need to go anywhere,” Yang Guanfeng said . “Just tell them to show up . ”
Miao Xihe had no expression when he received the news .
“Chief . ”
“Something happened in He County again . Government servants got hit this time . It was food poisoning . Tens of them were affected, including Secretary Guo . ”
“What? Is Miao Tianchuan insane!?” Miao Qingfeng was surprised to hear that news .
“He’s truly a lunatic . Head out immediately . You have to save all those people, especially Secretary Guo . ”
“Will do . ”
Miao Changqing gathered several people . The group immediately headed out for straight He County . They moved as quickly as they were able to .
“Look out!”
Boom .
On the road from the village, right where those people were, there was an explosion . Two people were blown to bits and died on the spot . The remaining two and Miao Changqing were injured .
“What?”
“Two are dead, and two are injured . ”

“Let’s go!”
Miao Xihe quietly rose . He decided to head out on his own .
There was no other option .
“You’re finally out!”
Miao Tianchuan was laying low on a rock somewhere in the woods with a sniper rifle in his hand . He was able to tell from the scope that there were five people . The man in the middle was his mortal enemy, Miao Xihe .
“Nearly invincible, eh? Let’s see if your eyes can take a hit . ”
He steadied his breath and aimed closely at Miao Xihe with the scope .
A breeze blew, and the leaves rustled .
Bang . A shot was heard throughout the woods .
Miao Xihe, who was several hundred few away, dropped to the ground with a thump .
“Chief!”
The people around him were stunned . They immediately circled him .
“Is he dead?”
Miao Tianchuan wanted to take a better look, but all of the people retreated behind the trees at very high speeds .
It was time to bail .
He made his choice without any hesitation . He took his gun apart and immediately retreated .
Sh*t!
Before he was able to get more than a few steps away, he sensed an intense threat right behind him
He fired without turning his head around .
Tat, tat, tat .
He felt a powerful force rushing at him with a huge thump . He was sent flying and rammed into a tree .
Miao Xihe!
He stood up . His chest hurt . He did not know how many bones had been broken, but he dared not turn around . He ran as soon as he got up . He threw several highly explosive grenades behind him .
Boom!
Intense explosions were heard .
Shoop . A gust of wind was heard .
He quickly dodged, but he was still too slow .
Torturous pain hit him with a loud crack . His arm was broken .

He still kept running .
Crack . A bone on his lower leg snapped . It had been bent at a 90-degree angle .
He lost all mobility . He was no longer able to run . His only option was to wait for death to claim him .
He stopped and looked behind him . He stared at the man who was mere feet away from him . That was the man he had dreamt of killing .
“Miao Xihe . ” Gritting his teeth would not have done him any good at that moment .
“So, is this the outcome you’d wanted to see?” the older man coldly asked while staring at Miao Tianchuan .
“He-he, well, the winner takes all . Even in my sleep, I dream of killing you . I’m not going to rest until you’re dead!”
“Did you go all this way just to kill me with a gun?”
Miao Tianchuan almost instantly realized what went wrong . “He-he, Miao Xihe . I never expected you would have found a double, especially one that looked just like you . ”
“I guess only a handful in the village knows about this, eh?”
“Seven . ”
“You really have things thought out,” Miao Tianchuan said . His injured body twisted about . Blood was visible at the corner of his mouth .
“You’re quite a talent, Tianchuan . It’s a pity . ”
“So, is here where I beg for my life?” Miao Tianchuan asked .
“It doesn’t matter . I have to get to He County and clean up the mess you started . Let’s call it a day . ”
“Hell yeah!”
Boom!
An extremely intense explosion was heard . A fireball was seen shooting into the air .
After hearing the explosion, several people rushed to the scene . They saw a crater that was almost 32 feet in diameter .
“What happened?”
“It doesn’t matter . Let’s head out . ”
A man suddenly appeared by their side .
“Chief, y-you’re still alive?”
All of them were surprised .
“Come on . We’re in a hurry . ”
“Yes, Sir . ” They did not ask any further questions and obediently followed him .
They arrived He County in the night . They went on to treat all the people who had suffered from food poisoning .
Miao Tianchuan was a proficient assassin, but he was not the best at using poison . The poison used, however, still would have given common doctors quite a headache . If they were to be given several months to work at it, they would have probably been able to find a solution . They did not have such time at their disposal . In truth, they could not even wait for days . People would have died by then .
It was fortunate that Miao Xihe and his people came in time and brought enough medicines with them . All the food poisoning victims were stabilized, including Guo Zhenghe .
“How are you feeling, Secretary Guo?”
“I’m fine . ” Guo Zhenghe woke up . Other than feeling sore and weak all over her, as well as very thirsty, he was hardly unwell in any other way .
“How are the others?” he asked .
“Everyone is no longer in danger . One of them died because of other health reasons . ”
“Who was that?”
“It was Li from the tech bureau . ”
Guo Zhenghe nodded after hearing that . He remained quiet .
“Are you hungry, Secretary Guo? I’ll go and get you something to eat . ”
“Yeah, thanks . ”
“Don’t mention it . ”
The young man headed out to get food . Guo Zhenghe was the only person left in the ward .
Guo Zhenghe sat on his bed and reminisced about what happened during the day . He felt rather unwell after lunch . With the cases of food poisoning being so widespread, the canteen was definitely the source of the problem . The investigations afterward confirmed that . There was where the problem lied . Who would have dared to provoke them at such a time using such methods?
Miao Tianchuan the fugitive?
He thought about it for quite some time and was unable to think of anyone else . It could have only been the work of that man, who was blinded by vengeance and willing to do anything to exact his revenge .
“Where is Miao Xihe now?”
“In the hospital . Deputy Mayor Lin is speaking with him . ”
“Keep an eye out . Tell him to come here when he’s available . ”
“Yes, Sir . Take your time with the meal . Call me if you need anything . ” The young man put down the food and headed out .
“Yeah . ”
Guo Zhenghe did not rush to eat . He called his family to tell them that he was alright . His family received the news as soon as he was hospitalized . They were very concerned for him, especially his mother, who insisted on going to He County . It took quite a lot of effort to persuade her otherwise . After hearing that he was alright and talking with him, she insisted on getting him assigned elsewhere . She said that it was too dangerous in He County .
“I’ll think about it, mom . Don’t worry too much . ”
It took him quite a while to quell his mother’s concerns . Right after he was done talking on the phone, he heard a knock on the door .
