Swing the sword at the future female devil

Chapter 263 Everyone laughs at Little Ginger Turtle, and everyone tries to emulate Little Ginger Turtle!
"Don't worry, as long as the people inside the formation cooperate with me, I can still sneak in!" Yan Qiuxi said confidently. "Call your best friend Xie Cangling now and have her sneak over here."

"I see... Is there a signal here?"

"I think so... If not, stand on higher ground... Sigh, it's a pity I've run out of levitation talismans and haven't replenished them."

"How about that tree?" Yan Qiuxi's eyes searched around and quickly locked onto a large tree that was more than ten meters tall.

"Climb that tree and try lifting it up a little higher..."

"Are you treating me like a monkey?" Xiao Jiang glanced at her sideways. "Why don't you climb it? It's so high."

"Who said I can't climb?" Yan Qiuxi said, clapping her hands. She quickly climbed up the tree, her movements as smooth as flowing water. It was clear that she was someone who often climbed trees to raid bird nests when she was a child.

Xiao Jiang, who hadn't had much training in tree climbing since childhood, was in a bit of a dilemma. When he looked up and saw that Yan Qiuxi had already climbed up, he gritted his teeth.

If she can do it, so can I!

After some twists and turns, Jiang Xiyu finally climbed a tree more than ten meters high with Prince Yan. She couldn't wait to open her phone, tap on Xiao Xie's profile picture, and tentatively made a voice call.

The chat call was answered after two beeps. It sounded very noisy on the other end, and the girl's voice was a little unclear...

“Xi Yu…”

A few unintelligible gasps came from the other end of the phone. Xiao Jiang and Yan Wang were both taken aback and couldn't help but slowly type out a question mark together.

"Cangling... what's the situation on your end?"

"Ah...it seems like my signal is bad..." Xie Cangling replied intermittently.

What's going on? Cang Ling, she...

Impossible, absolutely impossible!
The call was suddenly cut off due to poor signal. Jiang Xiyu was silent for a moment, then turned to Yan Qiuxi and gave her a confident smile:

"Hehe, don't worry, I know Cangling... she must be eating spicy food."

Yan Qiuxi: "."

No, sis, you can't believe you can do that to yourself?

As she spoke, Xiao Jiang dialed another number. She gave Prince Yan a reassuring gesture, then eagerly asked:
"Cangling, were you eating something just now?"

"Ah... um..." Xie Cangling's voice came through, accompanied by the sound of electricity, and there were also strange rhythmic sounds in the background.

"Cangling, be careful... it'll be ready soon, catch!"

A sudden loud noise came from the phone, like someone taking a big slurp of jelly. Immediately afterward, Xie Cangling gasped, seemingly startled.

Xiao Jiang was silent for a moment, then smiled at Yan Qiuxi beside her:
"Don't worry, they were probably jogging together."

"That sound just now, it must have been from someone twisting their ankle."

Yan Qiuxi: No... Who's the kind person who goes for a night run on the mountain so late at night? And even makes a kissing sound... Are you sure this isn't... "Alright, Yan Qiuxi, stop using your crude thinking to speculate about my childhood sweetheart's noble sentiments. How could he possibly do such a thing?" Jiang Xiyu said with a smile.

My best friend is pure and innocent, my childhood sweetheart is upright and honest, and I, Jiang Xiyu, have never been cheated on!

"..."

Wow... Jiang Xiyu, I have to look at you in a new light. To be able to be this cunning, you're quite the tough one.

But thinking about it, it makes sense. A girl who is betrayed and cheated on by her best friend, Jiang Xiyu's way of deceiving herself is probably a form of self-protection...

Hmm? I think I heard Qin Shuangjiang speak?

King Yan was slightly taken aback, and couldn't help but move closer. Sure enough, he could hear Qin Shuangjiang's voice coming from inside, albeit intermittently...

"Um...give it to me..."

"Please don't say 'Frost's Descent,' I really don't have any left..."

"Stop talking nonsense! I'm furious right now..."

As the call was disconnected again due to signal issues, both Xiao Jiang and Yan Wang fell silent...

Yan Qiuxi: You're very angry? Not a drop left?

Faced with Jiang Xiyu's gaze, Prince Yan was slightly taken aback, then said in a deep voice:
"Impossible, absolutely impossible! They must have been too tired from running... and Qin Shuangjiang just didn't bring any water, so she had to borrow some from Duan Huaige!"

My childhood friend is pure and innocent, and my crush is upright and honest. They would never drive a silver coat without calling me!
Jiang Xiyu: "..."

Everyone laughs at me, everyone imitates me! Yan Qiuxi, now you understand how I feel!
It hurts, it hurts too much!
Yan Qiuxi gritted her teeth in hatred. She was always the one who made Qin Shuangjiang stand outside the door to listen to the sounds. How could she possibly listen to the two of them talking through the handkerchief?
I'll stake my dignity on this; today, I will definitely enter Longhu Mountain!
……

Duan Huaige, carrying two wooden sticks with two chickens skewered on them and roasting them over the fire, casually asked the socially awkward girl who was shivering from the spiciness, "How's it going? Feeling any better?"

"Hmm... much better..." The socially anxious girl still had a few tears in her eyes from the spiciness, making her look especially pitiful. She glanced at her phone screen and added, "Xi Yu just called again... but the signal was bad and she hung up..."

"Why would she call you so late instead of sleeping?" Duan Huaige asked, somewhat puzzled. "Could it be that she could smell the aroma of our late-night barbecue from this far away?"

As he spoke, he turned to look at the King of Qin, who was still rinsing his mouth with water: "Frost's Descent... If I had known neither of you ate spicy food, I wouldn't have added chili peppers..."

Qin Shuangjiang turned her head and glared at him expressionlessly, offering no reply, only rinsing her mouth. No one had expected the chili peppers Duan Huaige had brought out to be so spicy.

She said that the food she grew herself didn't taste like much, but after taking a bite, she and Xie Cangling almost died... Duan Huaige's landscape painting has now become a small farm, with free-range chickens, cold-water fish, and some seasonal fruits and vegetables. Tonight's midnight snack was the result of Duan Huaige counting sheep until he got hungry, and then he had a flash of inspiration to call the two of them out for a barbecue.

This high-quality landscape painting has been turned into a Happy Farm game by my buddy; it seems a bit embarrassing for its predecessors…

Having meat but no wine is truly a great regret in life. Duan Huaige suddenly missed Yan Qiuxi, that extraordinary guy, after all, that guy must always have good wine in his storage bag.

Just as he was thinking this, in the dim firelight, Duan Huaige seemed to see two familiar figures walking menacingly towards them…
