The flames of the torch fires flickered in the night's darkness. Over ten thousand men excavated the earth with hoes and shovels.
Dirt was flying all around, and Zhan Fei stood by the side in disgust, waving away the dust in the air.
The Wolf Smoke Regiment soldiers were very good at digging. They had good practice when filling up the hole in the mountain behind the Moonset Valley.
As a result, it didn't take them much time to dig up a gigantic crater in the ground. Beneath their feet were moist brown earth.
Zhan Fei peeped in and looked at Ji Fengyan standing beside him. He smiled scornfully. "General Ji, you brought us here in the middle of the night to dig a hole in the ground. Are you planning to dig all the way through to the other side? I am afraid that even if we do so, we still won't find your demons?"
Zhan Fei had never heard of anyone being able to find a demon's nest by digging.
