Chapter 33: The Calm Before the Storm
Sai Tian coldly instructed outside, "Remember, keep a good guard, don't let her run away, otherwise even if you have a hundred heads, it won't be enough to cut off." ”
"As long as she doesn't leave this yard, everything can be with her." He turned his head and admonished again.
Zhong Licong here received the news that before the evening, someone saw a group of people leaving the city and heading towards the desert, and the person headed by him seemed to be the one who captured Ye Xi.
Zhong Licong guessed in his heart that Ye Xi was probably captured by that group of sand bandits and taken to the base camp, the desert city, and the sand city.
Shacheng is located in the center of the Rongjiang Kingdom, the Xidi Kingdom, and the grassland tribes, and that area has not belonged to any party since ancient times, so there is no one to govern it, so there are many bandits, and those bandits have become the current scale after nearly a hundred years of development.
If it weren't for the fact that the sand bandits broke into Quanzhou City, burned, killed and looted, and did all kinds of evil, Rongjiang State would not have planned to send troops to exterminate it, after all, that sand gang is a difficult bone to gnaw, and I didn't want to provoke it at will.
The reason why Shacheng is called Shacheng is because it is located in the center of the desert, and the yellow sand is raging all the year round, and outsiders dare not enter it easily, and the people inside do not dare to come out often, after all, if you are not careful, you will be buried by the yellow sand, and slowly turn into a pile of white bones buried in the ground.
Zhong Licong sent two forwards with strong martial arts, brought water and dry food into the desert, and explored the way first, so that if they found their base camp, they could be wiped out and never suffer in the future.
The next morning, Ye Xi woke up and finished washing, when someone knocked on the door outside, and she asked softly, "Who?" ”
The people outside spoke softly and politely, "Back to Miss Ye, the three gang leaders asked me to invite Miss Ye to the front hall." ”
Ye Xi was indifferent and detached, "Hmm! Got it! ”
Ye Xi opened the door, wondering in his heart, what did they ask me to do in the lobby? Interrogation, or humiliation of oneself.
Don't blame her for thinking too much, after all, most of the people here are men, and my beauty is too eye-catching. Besides, although this body is not her own, but now it has become hers, if she is insulted by those insults, she has that disgusting feeling, it is still herself. If they forcibly dragged her to humiliate herself, she would rather take poison and kill herself.
Ye Xi was wearing a plain brocade light cyan long skirt, with a hooded cloak on the outside, and a simple silver *** step on his head, which looked simple and simple, and was generous.
Although she didn't dress up deliberately, this one was enough to fascinate people when she wore it. Because even if she doesn't do anything, her appearance is enough to attract everyone, and if you add her bright and bright smile, it is even more fascinating.
Ye Xi hooked the corners of her mouth slightly, her face was calm and calm, and her expression was indifferent and distant, which made people feel that she could only watch from a distance, and she could not be blasphemed!
The little soldier guarding outside, when he saw the woman who came out inside, was like a fairy who had fallen into the mortal dust, so noble and cold, and so out of the world.
Ye Xi saw his stupid expression, and sighed in his heart, alas! Being too beautiful is also a threat.
Compared with his appearance in modern times and this appearance, it can only be said that people are more angry than others. When she went to college again, she was also the flower of the whole department, but when she saw the appearance of this body, she was a little jealous at that time. Now she doesn't have the slightest jealousy, because she is too beautiful, it is a harm to herself, and you are worried all the time about whether someone will want to harm you.
Ye Xi said lightly, "Let's go!" ”
This voice pulled back his obsession, there was a slight embarrassment on his face, and he scratched his head embarrassedly, "Miss Ye, please!" ”
Ye Xi saw that he asked me to go first, but she didn't know the way, so she glanced blankly, "You go ahead and show me the way!" Otherwise, what will you let me do? Look at the road and look for it! This made the other party blush directly, he nodded, and kept saying yes, saying three yes in a row.
So they came to the front hall, and saw a few people sitting in the lobby.
Sitting in front of him was Batian, who looked like he was in his thirties, burly, and the tallest of these people, estimated to be about 1.9 meters. His face was slightly dark, his nose was high, his lips were slightly thick, he was wearing a brown brocade robe, stepping on a pair of black cloth boots, and his expression was majestic, and he sat there.
The slightly thin man on his left hand side was the second child, wearing a maroon robe, and the second child was the third person in the past, and he was wearing a black robe today.
The person next to the second child was the fourth, fair-looking, neither tall nor short, wearing a white robe, and he was the only one who was a little out of place in front of them, and the rest of the people's skin was either dark, or a little earthy yellow, or just like the third child, a healthy wheat color.
The fourth child was the fifth to the past, only to see him wearing a dark black shirt and a dark black long silk under him, his expressionless face, lonely and arrogant face, making his slightly dark face give people a feeling of loneliness and coldness.
Ye Xi's figure came into their field of vision, and they all amazed their eyes. Especially the fourth child, who was born romantic, held a folding fan in his hand, and said in an admiring tone, "I have long heard that Princess Lingping, who is recognized as a righteous sister by the Queen Mother today, is the sister of the prime minister, and she looks like a natural country, and she is captivating the country and the city. I don't know how many times more beautiful than the first beauty in the rivers and lakes! ”
He said and looked at his third brother, "Third brother, you said yes!" ”
Saiten did not answer, because what he said was the truth.
Ye Xi walked in, indifferent eyes, detached tone, "What's the matter with me?" Her humble and unpretentious gesture made the crowd even more amazed, and if others saw them, they would surely cry in fright, or kneel down and beg them to let them go.
Ye Xi saw them staring at him, but he didn't speak, and asked coldly, "Is there something?" If not, then I'll go back to sleep! She said and prepared to turn around.
Batian asked calmly and loudly, "Are you really Princess Lingping?" He looked suspicious.
Don't blame him for being suspicious, an ordinary deep boudoir woman will never have her as calm and calm, and she is still facing the person who captures her.
Ye Xiwan smiled, "Yes, so what?" No, so what? ”
Batian's eyes were cold, with a fierce face, and the fourth child next to him saw his eldest brother like this, and said with a hippie smile, "Big brother, relax, beware of scaring the big beauty!" His teasing expression.
Batian's face was indifferent, "If it is, you can live, if it is not......" He said this, deliberately pausing and a fierce aura flashed in his eyes.
Ye Xi sneered in her heart, Che, I want to intimidate me, the former Shen Yunche looked murderous, eager to crush herself, she may be a little afraid in her heart, but how could she be afraid of the few people in front of her? She even dared to contradict the emperor of Chengguo before, would she still be afraid of a bandit? The people around her were angry, and that was what was terrifying, but unfortunately most of her were not afraid.
The overlord stared at the other party, "You have to die!" Ye Xi looked at the other party head-on, without fear.
Ye Xi sneered wantonly, "Ho ho! Cut! Is the intimidation over? Now I can go! Her expression was arrogant.
Ye Xi turned around and left the lobby as he spoke, his eyes pondering, the woman in front of him was indeed Princess Nalingping.
Everything he did just now was just a temptation, an ordinary deep boudoir woman, if she intimidated the other party, the other party would definitely scare the six gods, but the woman in front of her was stunning and elegant, her attitude was calm and unhurried, and she did not have the slightest fear. Then there is only the one who was named Princess Lingping, after all, this kind of woman is rare in the world, and with its innate noble and cold temperament, it makes even more sense.
After Ye Xi left the lobby, Batian sat on it and instructed the resourceful third brother, "Third brother, she was captured by you, so let you take care of it!" ”
The third child stood up and replied, "Yes, big brother!" ”
Batian thought to himself, the princess of this country is gone, and the city of Quanzhou must be in chaos, so you might as well go to fight and create more trouble for the other party.
Batian said his thoughts, "This princess is gone, Quanzhou City must be in chaos, let's go fight and make this matter bigger, what do you think?" ”
The straight-tempered dick echoed, "Okay! Big brother, when to go! He heard that he could go to war, and his face was excited.
The fourth said, "Big brother, you still need to be cautious in this matter!" ”
The third brother replied with a respectful face, "Big brother, the third brother thinks that this matter is impossible, we just arrested their princess, if you go to the palace at this time, I am afraid it will be inappropriate." They must have stepped up their vigilance, and if they attack like this, they may fall into a trap! He persuaded the other party with reason.
Batian fell into deep thought, and the second child was full of unconvinced face, and glared at the third child angrily, as if he had harmed himself from going to war.
Batian thought for a while, and felt that what his third brother said was right, but he didn't want to give up such a good opportunity.
So he suggested, "It's better to send someone out to check it out, and then come back and make another decision!" ”
The third child thought for a moment and nodded, "That's also feasible!" However, be sure to inquire clearly, and then you can wait and see before deciding. ”
Batian immediately sent someone to leave Shacheng and inquire about the news.
Ye Xi here went back to his yard and showed the girl who was waiting for him. It was found that her dumb disease was acquired, and she should have been burned from the inside, so vicious, she was so cruel to a thirteen or fourteen-year-old girl.
Her medical skills are excellent, this kind of injury, if it is put in modern times, it can still be saved, she can also save it, but let her speak, it is estimated that it is her death, after all, she is mute, she can't speak, so she can save her life, and when she has the opportunity to go out in the future, tell her the truth!
Ye Xi touched her head pityingly, and the other party looked at her flatteredly.
She said apologetically, "I'm sorry, your throat burned too badly to be saved!" I'm sorry! ”
When the girl heard that the other party had apologized to a cheap maid with her, she shook her head in surprise, and waved her hand, saying that she was fine, and she had known that this was the case.
Zhong Licong here explained to several of his powerful subordinates, "This deployment is only known to a few of you and me, if you dare to spread half a word, this king will be punished for military leakage!" ”
He looked at the lieutenant general who was the leader, "Remember, the outside is loose and the inside is tight, and you must not startle the snake!" ”
The lieutenant general clenched his fists and took the order.
Zhong Licong was thinking in his heart, little girl, you are waiting, this king will definitely save you.
Zhong Licong looked at the full moon in the sky, looked at such a calm night sky, and the cold wind under the night sky, thinking to himself, a big storm was coming.
