Chapter 269: Killer Feature
Still coming?
Xue Jingyue couldn't help but roll her eyes, and after a moment of silence, she suddenly sighed: "Miss Ouyang, forget it! I was already deeply disturbed by the fact that I killed the princess's child last time I heard your words, not to mention that we are not the opponents of Brother Guyun and the princess at all, so there is no need to toss anymore." β
Ouyang Yuting couldn't help but be stunned, and then sneered again and again: "Yo! Now pretend to be a good person? When I said to get rid of the evil seed in Duanmu Youning's stomach, you were very happy!"
Xue Jingyue lowered her eyelids slightly, and her tone was very sincere: "Yes, I was really looking forward to it at the beginning, and that difference in thought would lead to today's results." So, I can't afford to make the same mistake again. β
Ouyang Yuting was anxious, and said with a cold snort: "Do you think that if you stop now, you can save King Zhan's heart? Don't be stupid! It's better to stop doing nothing and get rid of that demon girl completely!"
Xue Jingyue shook her head: "I'm sorry Miss Ouyang, I won't harm the princess again." β
"You ......" Ouyang Yuting was furious, a trace of ruthlessness flashed in her eyes, "Are you so easy to get on this boat?" Tell you, it's easy to get up and hard to get down! If you don't cooperate with me obediently, I'll go and tell King Zhan......"
"Tell what?" Xue Jingyue smiled faintly, "You and I conspired to kill the princess's child, Brother Guyun already knows the truthβthe truth I am talking about is not the story you made up with Brother Guyun, but the real truth." What else do you have to say to him?"
Ouyang Yuting was taken aback when she heard this: "How is it possible!? That matter is known to you and me, does King Zhan have clairvoyance and ears?!"
"Brother Guyun didn't," Xue Jingyue's eyes flashed with a hint of cunning, but she pretended to be calm and said, "It's just that we didn't expect that the princess had a pair of divine eyes, and she could see what I was thinking!"
"Nonsense. Ouyang Yuting scoffed, "She's just an ordinary person, not a ghost, god or demon, how can she have such great magical powers?" I heard you talk nonsense that day, why do you still say that today?"
Xue Jingyue's eyes were gloomy: "I'm not talking nonsense. I know it's hard to believe, but Miss Ouyang, why do I have to lie to you? You don't know, when the princess told me that day, I couldn't believe it, but then ......"
Saying that Duanmu Youning accurately interpreted what she was thinking that day, Ouyang Yuting's eyes widened in surprise: "This...... How is this possible?"
"It's true. Xue Jingyue nodded, "You can talk nonsense about other things with me, but there were no outsiders around when you and I were negotiating secretly, how did she know?
Ouyang Yuting opened her mouth and stammered, and she was already confident in her heart: "Sure enough! Sure enough, it's a demon girl! How can ordinary people have this ability?"
"That's why I said, forget it, we can't fight the princess," Xue Jingyue hid the coldness in her eyes, and said with a pretended sigh, her witchcraft is so powerful, and we are not cultivators, where can we stop her?"
Ouyang Yuting was still stunned, but when she heard this, she seemed to have gained some inspiration, her eyes immediately lit up, she stood up and pretended to sigh: "Since this is the case, then we really can't act rashly! Forget it, you rest first, and I'll come to you another day." β
Seeing her figure disappear at the door, Xue Jingyue picked up the cup and took a sip of tea, her eyes flashing with pride.
Hurriedly returning to the tent, Ouyang Yuting carefully took out a stick of incense from the dresser, lit it and put it on the table. About a tea time later, I saw a figure flash at the door, and a person dressed as a guard had appeared: "Yuting, are you looking for me?"
"Well, I have something very important to discuss with you, come in!" Ouyang Yuting agreed, and stepped forward to help someone in, "I have been mixed with those guards during this time, I have really wronged you! β
The guard's face, which was obviously wearing a human skin mask, was expressionless, only a pair of eyes were dripping: "I can eat and sleep every day, what is there to be wronged? I just haven't had anything to do, and I'm very depressed." β
Ouyang Yuting couldn't help but chuckle: "You are my killer weapon, the most brilliant move, if it is not really at the most important juncture, how can you easily let you play?"
The guard tugged at the corners of his mouth and smiled: "What about now? It's the most important moment? Otherwise, what are you asking me to do?"
"Not really. The smile on Ouyang Yuting's face became grim, "I invited you over tonight to tell you that we have a demon girl here......"
After muttering in his ear for a long time, she finally asked expectantly, "How is it? Can you hold her?"
The guard's eyes flashed with disbelief: "There is still such a thing?"
"Yes!" Ouyang Yuting nodded, "A demon girl like her, ordinary people naturally can't deal with it, you have advanced cultivation, there will always be some way, right?"
The guards were silent, but their eyes flickered. After a while, he exhaled a breath: "In this way, I will teach you a method, you can find a chance to try her again, see if she is really a demon, or Xue Jingyue is talking nonsense." β
Ouyang Yuting couldn't wait to nod her head: "Okay, but the method must be smarter, otherwise if I am discovered by King Zhan, I will die!"
The guard nodded: "Don't worry, I naturally know!"
Ouyang Yuting stretched out her ears and listened carefully.
Early the next morning, Xue Jingyue came to serve, and when she saw Duanmu Youning looking at her a few more times, she simply said angrily: "Don't look at it! Ouyang Yuting came to me last night and asked me to continue to cooperate with her to deal with you." But I knew it would be futile, so I didn't say yes. β
Duanmu Youning smiled and nodded: "Very good, I finally taught you to be obedient." How good do you think this is? We live in harmony with each other and have nothing to do with each other, and it is better than deceitful and fighting to the death, right?"
Xue Jingyue glanced at her, silently cleaned up the bed, and subconsciously didn't think about anything, always leaving her brain blank - this torture is really not human!
After breakfast, the army moved on. Ouyang Yuting has been pondering what the guards said, and she is afraid that Duanmu Youning really has a pair of divine eyes and does not dare to make a move easily, because she is absent-minded no matter what she does. Xue Jingyue saw it in her eyes, but she just sneered silently.
At that moment, the army went all the way north, and soon came to the dense forest mentioned earlier. It is said to be a dense forest, but the road in it is very wide enough to accommodate a horse-drawn carriage to pass through. It's just that this dense forest covers an extremely wide area, and the army actually walked for seven days before it successfully passed through.
After getting out of the dense forest and seeing that it was already noon, the three countries stopped to rectify and eat and rest by the way. Just because they wanted to discuss the next action plan, the heads of state sat together, and Duanmu Youning was also among them, and his spirit was not bad, which showed that Xue Jingyue was very attentive.
Seeing that the people had arrived, Yu Wenheng spoke first: "We have come out of the dense forest, and then continue to move forward for about three hundred miles, there is a high mountain, according to historical records, this mountain is called Nine Peerless Mountain, as high as 2,500 zhang." β
Suo Tianli nodded: "How is the mountain condition?"
"It's very sinister. Yu Wenheng touched his chin, and after a while, he pointed at the map, "The Nine Peerless Mountains are high and steep, full of cliffs, abyssal streams, and because it is inaccessible, there is almost no way up the mountain, we have to step out of a road to turn over!"
Suo Tianli couldn't help frowning: "In this case, isn't the carriage impassable?"
"That's for sure. Yu Wenheng nodded, "That's why I sent someone to tell you to buy more food, and you don't need to prepare too much forage, because you won't need it soon." β
Suo Tianli pondered for a moment, and felt more and more inappropriate: "If the horses are tethered here, they will starve to death sooner or later, but if they are allowed to fend for themselves, if we find the jewels, how will we transport them back?"
"The Three Kingdoms have each sent so many people, what is Prince Tianli afraid of?" Yu Wenheng smiled slightly, but he didn't care, "No matter how many jewels there are in the underground palace, we will add up to more than 30,000 people." If you really can't get it, it's a big deal to transport it here in batches, and it's not too late to buy a new car. β
Suo Tianli nodded: "Okay, that's it." It's just that the princess can support it, do you want to rest for a few more days before setting off?"
Duanmu Youning smiled and shook his head: "Don't worry, I'm fine." If I can't support it, I won't force it. β
Although there was a lot of excitement here, Ouyang Yuting barely heard much, and all her thoughts were on how to quietly test Duanmu Youning - until this moment, she didn't believe that Duanmu Youning really had a pair of divine eyes, otherwise she would never dare to be so presumptuous.
And after a moment of counseling, they dispersed, each to his own business. Seeing Duanmu Youning walking alone in the direction of the temporary latrine, Ouyang Yuting's eyes flashed, and she also pretended to be anxious to run over.
Running closer, she looked left and right, making sure no one was paying attention before she quietly reached into her arms. However, at this moment, a hand suddenly stretched out from the oblique thorn, grabbed her arm and dragged her away: "Miss Ouyang, it turns out that you are here!
Ouyang Yuting was taken aback, turned her head to look and found that it was Yu Wenheng, and she struggled angrily: "Let go! What are you doing!?"
"Miss Ouyang, don't worry, I have no malicious intentions!" Yu Wenheng replied in a low voice, "Quick, go back to the tent first!"
Seeing that he did not make any further moves, Ouyang Yuting felt a little relieved, but at the same time, she was very puzzled, and she didn't understand what his intentions were. After a while, she had been dragged into the tent by Yuwen Heng, and then she broke free of his hand and frowned and asked, "Prince Yuwen said that my father is looking for me, what about others?"
