Jiangshan Fengwuzhi

Chapter 80: Secretly
In the woods, a few money-losing guys squatted there, looking at Feng Niang's distraught look, but they didn't understand anything.

"Who's not leaving?"

"Is Gao Changgan back to the theater? Is he not doing any work?"

"Eat more, do less..."

Feng Niang listened to these confusing words and thought that if Gu Jingnian didn't go with her, she would have to lead these fools across tens of thousands of miles alone.

The feeling of being abandoned came to her mind again, and she was inexplicably annoyed, angry at herself for having the courage to escape just because of a boy. On the other hand, she knew that she needed Gu Jingnian to stay and complete certain things before they could leave safely.

She was clearly very angry, but she shouldn't be angry, and it made her even angrier.

"hateful."

Seeing that the shopkeeper was in a bad mood, the money-losers fell silent. After a while, they began to secretly throw leaves into each other's collars and had a lot of fun.

A long time passed again.

"Crench."

Suddenly, there was a sound of leaves being crushed.

Not far from Lao Hei, a footprint was created on the dead leaves piled on the ground and was quickly blown away by the wind.

"Is it you?" Lao Hei said, "I told you to eat more."

There was no response, only the sound of the wind blowing through the trees.

Lao Hei grumbled worriedly, "If he can't come back, he might starve to death out there. He doesn't have any cooking skills at all."

"Crench."

Finally, there was another sound, and the next moment, two figures appeared out of nowhere, one tall and one short.

The tall and thin figure swayed and fell directly into the dead woods.

The money-loser rushed over and asked, "Gao Changgan, are you okay?"

"So hungry."

The petite figure that was brought back was actually a servant boy. He was huddled together with them, looking at Gao Changgan with concern.

"Don't worry, he's fine."

Feng Niang stepped forward, patted the servant, and said, "Come with me."

The two of them walked to the side, and Feng Niang stared deeply into the servant's eyes, inexplicably feeling a sense of closeness.

Just from this one glance, she knew the other person's identity.

"Are you Womin?"

"Yes."

Feng Niang couldn't help but sigh, thinking that she had been looking for Womin on the orders of the cage owner for many years, but she didn't expect to find him in this way.

But my mood is very complicated.

"What is your name?"

"Yingyao, sister, what about you?"

Yingyao's voice was clear and pleasant, and she was no longer as scared as before. She raised her head and looked at Fengniang, and said, "It's so strange. When I see my sister, I always feel so close to her."

“Because we are from the same hometown.”

Feng Niang couldn't help but reach out and touch the colorful feathers on Yingyao's ear. She felt a little strange in her heart. As far as she knew, the Wo people looked no different from ordinary people and should not have such colorful feathers. But Yingyao was obviously a Wo person. As soon as she approached her, she could feel the rich breath from Woye on her body.

"Fellow villager?" Ying Yao was puzzled.

"We both come from Woye." Feng Niang said, "You are a Womin, and I am a descendant of the Bluebird clan."

Ying Yao was stunned for a moment, and joy flashed in her clear eyes. She even waved her arms happily and said incoherently: "I'm so happy, I really want to hug you."

Feng Niang asked, "Do you trust me so much? Aren't you afraid that I was ordered to capture you to make the elixir of immortality?"

"No." Ying Yao looked determined and said, "Young Master said that you would go to Woye with us, and as soon as I saw you, I knew you were a good person."

"I'm not a good person. I was ordered to catch you before."

Speaking of this, Feng Niang couldn't help but think that the reason why the Cage Man let the descendants of the Blue Bird Clan to capture the Wo Min people might be because of the natural closeness between them.

But the caged people are not afraid. Will she be soft-hearted after finding Womin?

Thinking of this, Feng Niang became a little worried and asked, "How did you get here?"

"I walked here." Ying Yao said, "I was hiding in the Gu family originally, but the young master asked me to leave two days before he set out. I walked for many days before I finally reached the ruined temple south of Yidi Mountain. The young master said someone would come to pick me up, so I waited for two days, and sure enough, he came to pick me up."

After hearing this, Feng Niang felt relieved.

This was exactly what Gu Jingnian and her planned, because no matter whether it was the Gu family's team or the Kaiping Division's team, once they left Beijing, they would inevitably be watched by the Cage People.

So, who won’t be stared at? It’s precisely the team that cages people.

The key to this plan is that Gu Jingnian wants to distract the pursuers. He arranges a fake Wo Min in Gu Jizu's team, making people guess that Wo Min is either in the team or still in the capital.

Next, Feng Niang will march westward in the name of hunting down Ma Shi and Huang Hu, and hide Ying Yao in her team. The cage owner is probably still looking for clues about Wo Min in Shuyang City.

As for where to hide Yingyao, Fengniang had already made preparations.

Among the many boxes on her carriage, there was an old, broken walnut box that was used in the theater's magic shows. It was actually a foreign object.

Just hide the tassel inside and tell the box to hide it. Then no matter how others open it, they won't be able to see the tassel.

"You go in."

Feng Niang opened the box.

"it is good."

Yingyao nodded, climbed onto the carriage obediently, leaned out and was about to get into the box, but the next moment, she screamed in fright.

"what!"

A pair of long hands suddenly came out of the box and grabbed Yingyao's shoulders.

Feng Niang was also surprised. She immediately pulled out a knife from the side and chopped at the hand.

But a strange scene happened. The hands bent as if they had no bones, stretched like dough, and avoided the blade.

Even when the knife hit the car board, it couldn't cut it.

"Stop chopping, stop chopping!" A slick voice sounded, and then a man crawled out of the box.

There was nothing special about this man's appearance, except for a pair of goatees that made him look a little cunning, but his body shape was extremely strange, and could be long or short, big or small.

It was clearly a very small box, but he pulled out his long body from it, followed by his long legs, which bounced like dough after being pulled out.

His hands were always glued to Yingyao.

"Baohu?!"

Feng Niang was shocked and knew that something bad was going to happen, and her mind was racing.

"Hey, it's me." Bao Hu said with a smile, "Boss, how are you?"

"Damn it, when did you hide in my box?"

"Wrong, wrong."

Bao Hu stretched his waist until it was as tall as the small tree, and then he bounced back after stretching his muscles.

"First of all, this is not your box, but mine. Secondly, I was already inside this box before you got it. Also, for so many years, I have been performing the art of taking things out of thin air and making people appear alive for you. You still owe me tens of thousands of dollars."

Feng Niang's face turned cold.

This time it's not about money.

She had run the theater for several years and had never imagined that there was a person hiding in this broken box.

"You never came out of the box?"

"Yes." Bao Hu said, "I hid in there with a full warehouse of food and water. If you don't find Womin in ten years, I won't come out for ten years. Hehe, the last time the theater caught fire, it scared me. Phew... The air outside is so good, and the moon is so beautiful!"

His hand still did not let go of Ying Yao, but he stretched his neck very long, higher than the woods, greedily sniffing the wind at the treetops.

Feng Niang wanted to chop off that long neck with a knife, but she clenched her hands and then loosened them. After a while, a faint smile even appeared on her face.

"Why do you do this? Doesn't the cage owner trust me?"

"may be."

The swollen neck shrank back again, twisted into several circles, and then suddenly loosened, turning around and around, as if no matter how it moved it was not enough.

"You and Womin are from the same place. Who knows what will happen if you meet? It's safer for me to catch you."

Feng Niang smiled and said, "Now that we have caught him, is the credit yours or mine?"

She had never placed the box in her small building, so Bao Hu probably didn't know the relationship between her and Gu Jingnian.

"You have done more, I have worked harder." Bao Hu said with a smile, "Just now I thought you were going to kill me to steal the credit, you scared me."

Feng Niang glanced at Ying Yao with her beautiful eyes and said, "I finally caught this Womin, and you came out to steal the credit. How abominable. By the way, did you hear what I said to coax this little girl just now?"

"Hey, I don't care what you guys say. I just want to hand over the cage owner's things... Here I come."

Bao Hu looked up at the sky, stretched his neck and called out to the air, "Here!"

The next moment, three flying carriages descended from the sky, each with two servants in blue.

One of the men got out of the car, and four arms appeared and disappeared under his green cloak.

He walked towards Feng Niang and said with a proud attitude: "I believe the cage owner has already told you that you will listen to my master's orders tonight."

"Yes."

Feng Niang responded coldly.

Even if she didn't betray the cage owner, she would not be nice to the slave.

Apart from having four hands and knowing some crafts, there is nothing special about the Xi people, and they are far inferior to her, a descendant of the Blue Bird tribe.

But, Chu Danqing is indeed capable. He got the news so quickly. No wonder the cage owner said he would contact him.

"The master asked you to take Womin over. Let's go."

Feng Niang looked up and saw that the birds had disappeared from the sky. She knew that she was no match for these people, so she nodded and said, "Let's not take these burdens with us, okay?"

She pointed at the money-losing guys in Washe.

"Okay." The handsome man said calmly, looking very arrogant.

Bao Hu chuckled twice, grabbed the rope and got on the flying car first.

The flying car took off into the air, and looking from the sky, one could see from afar that the thick fog near the Kurumu Village was dissipating, and the various flames that were shooting up into the sky were also dimming little by little.

They slowly descended toward a high platform.

In the middle of the platform, a man in a white robe was standing with his hands behind his back. His figure was eye-catching. It was Chu Danqing. Not far away, sat Gu Jizu.

In fact, they were surrounded by twelve people in black cloaks, and there was a faint, invisible sense of oppression covering him like a big net.

"I know what you are capable of, but why rush into it?"

Chu Danqing was calm and said in a clear voice: "I believe the prime minister has sent someone to see your master, and the order will come down soon."

as predicted.

"stop!"

Following a clear shout, Wei Chan rode over and, under the protection of the black-clad guards, personally climbed onto the platform.

She was born in the royal family. Although she was just a little girl, she was not afraid at all when facing such a scene, as if in her eyes all the extraordinary people and things should be used by her.

And more importantly, the Prime Minister's Mansion had already sent someone to give her an explanation.

"Are you Chu Danqing?"

"That's right, I have met Princess Yushu."

"What a monster!" Wei Chan scolded, "I heard that you violated the Da Rui ban and refined the alien without permission."

"This is an order from the Prime Minister's Office. We have no choice but to do this in order to deal with the vicious aliens in Yong State."

As Chu Danqing spoke, he looked at Gu Jizu, then at Wei Chan, with a faint smile on his face.

At this point, the situation seemed to be under his control.

"After Cui Hao and Huang Ju's death, I am in need of a partner. I wonder if the princess and the eldest son are interested?"
