Chapter 256 - The Stainless LandNing Zheyan placed her long fingers by her ear, and faintly heard the sound of a horse"s hoof. It seemed that Yun Xie had sensed it, and her expression changed slightly: "Get on the horse quickly."
The three of them nimbly jumped into the boat. The job of paddling was naturally given to Ah Qing, who thought to herself that she was indeed the master of misery.
Seeing the boat enter the Wu River, Wei Yuanwei"s expression changed. Although she knew that the dirtier the place, the more it could confuse and conceal one"s ident.i.ty, Wei Yuanwei still couldn"t help but twitch his mouth: "I had thought that the Master Ning"s hands were powerful, but I didn"t expect it to be so mediocre."
Ning Zheyan frowned his beautiful eyebrows slightly. Did he really have to blame him? After Yun Xie set up three checkpoints in the Mo City, the entire place was tightly surrounded. If not for the fact that he was unable to enter the Mo City through extraordinary means, she might have become Yun Xie"s prisoner long ago. Furthermore, Yun Xie had spread word that she was to be apprehended in the underworld.
Ning Zheyan lifted Wei Yuanwei"s chin with a smile on her face and sighed: "Perhaps Yun Xie will thank Zheyan in the future. Zheyan had heard that the Xiling"s Crown Prince had plans for you, but she was bitten by a little fox like you. "
Wei Yuanwei rolled her eyes at him. He was very well-informed about this guy, so she suddenly raised his eyebrows and smiled, looking extremely amorous. "Master Ning, aren"t you afraid that the next one to be bitten will be you?"
Ning Zheyan smiled, her eyes beaming with light. "Zheyan"s body is filled with poison, if Miss Wei isn"t afraid of death, then let"s give it a try."
Wei Yuanwei"s eyes revealed a cunning smile, she pretended to be obedient and laughed: "As long as Master Ning can save me from Mo City, I will definitely be deeply grateful, and sincerely serve Master Ning."
The corner of Ning Zheyan"s mouth twitched, this fellow"s change in att.i.tude is really fast, he cleared her throat and said: "It"s best if that"s the case, if you"re playing any tricks, you"ve seen Zheyan"s methods." He had a thousand ways to make her live a life worse than death.
As the small boat entered the Wu River, a thick smell of makeup powder mixed with the fishy smell of the lake"s surface a.s.saulted his nostrils, causing him to feel faintly nauseous. Ning Zheyan could not help but frown.
Wei Yuanwei looked at Ning Zheyan with even more contempt. "Master Ning wouldn"t want us to act like prost.i.tutes and sell ourselves in this kind of dirty place, right?"
Ning Zheyan"s face slightly sunk. "This is a place that Yun Xie would never think of at the moment, we will only stay here for a while, after that, someone will bring us out of the city."
The old procuress, who was leaning on the bow of the ship, saw the three of them and hurried over. She said respectfully, "Young Master, this servant has already arranged everything."
Wei Yuanwei sighed in her heart, the snake demon Ning really had some skills, to actually place its own men in the fence. Although the fence was extremely dirty, but there were both peddlers and soldiers, and officials and n.o.bles in higher cla.s.s places. It was truly the best place to gather information, not to mention the officials very rarely checked out the fireworks.
The old procuress led the three into the boat cabin, and the green clothed maid served hot tea to the people. The fire in the cabin was extremely bright, causing Wei Yuanwei"s body, which had been washed by the river, to suddenly feel warm.
The Evil King"s Mansion was brightly lit, the entire courtyard was filled with the sounds of swords and blades clashing against armor, the soldiers walked in and out of the Duke Palaces, and immediately reported the situation to Yun Xie.
The study room was in complete silence. The candle flame shone brightly against Yun Xie"s mask and glinted coldly. The ground was a mess, and porcelain pieces were scattered all over the place.
Yun Xie held onto the tagged geo-humanities biography book, which was slightly pale, and in an instant, the thick book in his hands curved into a terrifying arc. He had already planned it all out, but it was a pity that he thought that she was just pa.s.sing the time.
Yun Xie threw the book in her hand to Xuan Li, grinded her teeth and said: "Wherever you want to mark, give this king a good look." Even if it was only Wei Yuanwei"s Smoke Bombs, he still wanted to check them one by one.
The darkness of the night was like a thick layer of ink. The soldiers" footsteps pa.s.sed through the sleeping birds of the manor and emitted a hoa.r.s.e sound, adding to the horror and nervousness of the dark night.
In the Lotus Incense Courtyard, Wei Guanshu was fiddling with the spices in his hands, his heart had already flown outside. The door creaked, and Liu"er walked in softly, hurriedly went up to welcome his.
"What happened? Did you find that b.i.t.c.h?" Wei Guanshu"s heart felt a trace of inexplicable nervousness.
Liu"er"s swollen face cracked into a smile: "Rest a.s.sured Master, that s.l.u.t is determined to leave, Your Highness will not be able to find her for a while."
Pow! A heavy slap landed on Liu"er"s face. Wei Guanshu said sinisterly, "I want Your Highness to never find that s.l.u.t."
Wei Guanshu"s long-suppressed emotions suddenly exploded as she shouted harshly, "I want that b.i.t.c.h to be killed by the chaotic army in the end, before she falls down the cliff and dies without a burial. It"s best if she is eaten by wild wolves!"
Wei Guanshu pointed at the sky and released a string of curses, only to hear the rumbling of thunder. The dark room was suddenly illuminated by the green and white light, which made Wei Guanshu"s face look even more sinister.
If she did not have Wei Yuanwei in the future, she would be able to monopolize Yun Xie, and she would have the hope of taking the position of an imperial concubine.
The entire Mo City was immersed in a tense atmosphere, the streets were filled with soldiers, ordinary citizens peeked their heads out of the windows and tried to guess at the sudden scene.
The Wu River sunk into silence in the middle of the night. Occasionally, the sound of singers fiddling with the zither could be heard, highlighting the loneliness of the river.
Wei Yuanwei was unable to fall asleep, at this time, a series of light knocks came from the door. It was the old procuress"s voice.
Wei Yuanwei pulled off her quilt, got up and walked out, only to see four or five st.u.r.dy men standing in the cabin. All of them had dark skin, with some scars on their faces, it could be seen that they were people who had experienced many hardships.
The few big sized men"s eyes unrestrainedly looked at Wei Yuanwei, Ah Qing and Ning Zheyan.
A big fellow with yellow teeth revealed a vulgar smile, "Lady Boss, the goods this time are quite good."
He took out a silver ingot and stuffed it into the bawd"s hand, pushing the three into the boat.
"Don"t tell me these people bought us to be their wives?" Ah Qing muttered.
Wei Yuanwei said in a low voice: "How stupid, where did you get them from, they look more like soldiers."
Wei Yuanwei thought for a while. Could they have bought them to be army wh.o.r.es?
