"Take the initiative?!"
Wei Yao and Wang Zebang both looked incredulous, as if they had heard a ghostly anecdote.
Zheng Quchi quickly let go of Yu Wensheng and said: "That's right, together we will completely drive the Beiyuan Army lingering at the border of Ubao out of Ye territory!"
Listen, listen to this tone, it's so... scary.
Yu Wensheng couldn't bear to part with her warm embrace. Seeing that she was about to let go, he quickly pulled her hand back to his waist and circled it. He pretended to be casual and wanted to fool her: "This is a good idea. Tell me, what do you have?" idea?"
Zheng Quchi couldn't break away from his soft snake-like entanglement, so he twitched. He couldn't pull out and could only stare at him.
"release."
As soon as she straightened her face, Yu Wensheng blinked and relaxed instantly. He raised his hands and smiled innocently: "Relaxed."
She snorted softly, looked past Yu Wensheng, looked at Wei Yao and the others, and said with a serious look: "It's up to you to fight the war, but on the battlefield, I will never let you and the soldiers suffer in equipment. Just go with it. I come."
——
Back at Tunbing City, Zheng Quchi mysteriously asked Yu Wensheng to take only Wei Yao and Wang Zebang with him, and then follow her to a place.
"Is there anything we don't know about in this military garrison city?" Wei Yao wondered.
Tunbing City is the new camp they moved to, but it is still under construction, and the buildings have not been completely completed. However, they have been back and forth so many times that they are almost familiar with each other, but they did not know that Madam brought them to see it. What.
"This way."
She led the three of them into the dark room where Yu Wen Sheng was originally imprisoned. The cage inside was still intact. Yu Wen Sheng glanced at her with a half-smile, and Zheng Quchi quickly pretended to be busy and stepped forward to remove the cage. Push away——
Only then did they realize that there was something else going on underneath.
A deep, dark hole.
"Is this a secret passage?"
Wang Zebang looked at Zheng Quchi in surprise.
"You follow me."
She climbed down a soft rope ladder, and after a while, she shouted from the bottom: "Come down."
From the sounds of it, this secret passage is quite deep.
The three of them followed Zheng Quchi down without any doubt that he was there. The dark and narrow secret passage went all the way down. They didn't know how long it took before they finally stepped on the ground.
However, this was not over yet. He had to walk through another long tunnel. Zheng Quchi took out the fire seal and used the faint light to guide the way until he came to a stone door, which was locked.
While she was unlocking the door, Wang Zebang asked, "Madam, when did you dig a tunnel?"
"Where does this tunnel lead?" Wei Yao also asked curiously.
Zheng Quchi was busy with what he was doing and said casually: "We'll find out when we get out."
Seeing that it took her so long to open the lock, Wei Yao stepped forward curiously: "Is it difficult to open it?"
"Of course, the mechanism lock I designed cannot be opened by ordinary people. Of course, I have to spend some time myself." She continued to unlock it.
"...Awesome." In the end, Wei Yao could only say this.
After opening the stone door, they walked out of the tunnel one after another, and then saw an astonishing scene.
In front of them was a large underground cave. There was light coming from the gaps above, so the environment inside was very clear. They seemed to have arrived at an armory and saw rows of neatly arranged armors, swords and fine weapons. Bows and crossbows, and of course there were many things they had never seen before.
"Where is this? Why are there so many weapons?"
When they were amazed, Zheng Quchi stepped forward, patted the dust on his armor, and said with a dark gaze, "This is the treasure of the Zheng family."
When the three of them heard this, they all looked at her quickly.
Zheng Quchi explained: "Actually, our family's surname is not Sang, but Zheng. Even I was shocked when I heard about it. Our ancestors were the top craftsmen in the Seven Kingdoms. I heard that the public losers at that time He even became a disciple of our Zheng family, but unfortunately later..."
Nothing can be compared with a word of luck, times have changed.
There is no going back on the past, she only mentioned it briefly and then left it at that.
But when they heard Zheng Quchi telling her true origins, Wei Yao and Wang Zebang finally understood that the madam had such miraculous abilities at such a young age. Origin.
Now a lot of things made sense.
Zheng Quchi turned around and took out a piece of suede leather from her bag. She looked at them: "Have you ever heard of the Eight Wildernesses of Kyushu?"
Wei Yao's eyes widened suddenly: "Picture of the Eight Wildernesses of Nine Provinces?!"
Wang Zebang was also shocked.
Yu Wensheng listened calmly, and only his increasingly dark and swirling eyes slightly revealed that he was not indifferent.
Zheng Quchi nodded: "It seems that I have heard of it. In fact, it comes from our Zheng family. Nowadays, the complete map of the Eight Wildernesses of Nine Provinces cannot be pieced together. The descendants of our Zheng family have incomplete pictures."
Wang Zebang secretly smacked his lips: "Every country is secretly looking for the Nine Provinces Eight Wilderness Map. I heard that it records in detail the topographic maps of the main cities, counties, prefectures, and continents of each country. It is an amazing map."
Unexpectedly, this Zheng family is actually Madam’s clansman.
"The Zheng family has been filling the vacancies in the Eight Wilderness Map of Kyushu for generations. At first, it was to fulfill their ambition, but later it may have become a generational obsession."
The Zheng family had always concealed their identity by tampering with their names in order to avoid being traced by various countries. However, they could not avoid the disaster and were eventually discovered. They only missed the annihilation of their clan and the loss of their surname.
"The Mo family has been pursuing you for a long time. Mo Ye mentioned that the deal with you was all because of this map of the Eight Wildernesses of Nine States?" Yu Wensheng raised his eyebrows slightly.
Zheng Quchi breathed a sigh of relief: "Yes, my parents died in the hands of the Mo family, and I was brought to the Mo family by them to be trained as a killer. They were worried that I would betray one day, so they never trained me in martial arts. He only taught me the art of archery and assassination, while using me and guarding against me."
"They made my brother's leg lame on purpose, just to threaten my parents into submission. They even poisoned the young Yaomei, causing her to become stupid since she was a child..."
Hearing their wife's tragic past, Wei Yao and Wang Zebang were stunned at first, and then both showed their unbearable and indignation.
The habitual smile on Yu Wensheng's lips faltered, and a dangerous light as thin as a blade flashed in his eyes.
They all thought in unison, the Mo family, okay, just wait, they will come to them to recover the debt sooner or later!
Seeing that the three people looked unkind, they seemed to be thinking about "a dark and windy night with murderous people"?
She patted her forehead and pretended to be relaxed: "Okay, I'm not saying this to make you feel uncomfortable for my family. I just feel that along the way, we have become the most trustworthy and closest to each other, so I I just want to take this opportunity to be honest with you."
She solemnly said: "I did hide many things from you at the beginning, and even many things happened later. We saved me from danger many times, but I never explained the reasons to you. But these are not I did it on purpose, everything was forced by the situation, and now I hope you can understand and forgive me."
Wei Yao and Wang Zebang could not afford Zheng Quchi's apology. They hurriedly said: "Madam, we understand, you don't have to be like this."
Yu Wen Sheng chuckled softly. Because the poison had not been cleared away, there was still a bloody aura in the dark depths of his eyes: "Qu Chi, you will never need to explain anything when you are here with me, no matter what you have ever had No matter how many levels of identity you have passed, I only recognize you as my wife. Our marriage contract was requested by you personally and signed by me. There is no possibility of changing this matter."
Zheng Quchi: "..." Yes, thanks to him reminding her, she remembered how she dug a hole for herself and then buried herself in it. (End of chapter)
