"ah!"
With a scream, Gu Mengyi was tied up by the spirit-binding chains and hung high.
Jiang Youning admired Gu Mengyi's embarrassed look with a smile on her face.
"How about it? It doesn't feel good to be captured by someone you look down on."
Gu Mengyi's eyes were red, with a ferocious expression on his face, and he gritted his teeth and said viciously: "Ning You, you dare to sneak up on me, I'm going to kill you."
Jiang Youning sneered: "Kill me? Then I won't be able to keep you."
After saying that, she directly controlled the spirit-binding lock to penetrate Gu Mengyi's throat.
Before he died, Gu Meng's eyes widened, as if to say, I won't let you go.
Following Gu Mengyi's death, a black shadow flew out of her body and fled deep into the forest.
"Where to run!"
Jiang Youning, who was on guard for a long time, directly threw out dozens of thunder talismans, smashing the fleeing evil spirit into pieces.
"It seems that the soul was severely tortured by the backlash, otherwise it would not have been destroyed by the Sky Thunder Talisman so easily."
Before leaving, Jiang Youning burned Gu Mengyi's body clean, and then wiped away all traces of the fighting around her. After doing all this, she changed her appearance again, put on smart clothes, and left the forest. , walking towards the top of Lingzhou Pier.
However, when she arrived at the pier, she saw a group of guards in armor surrounding the pier.
"What happened?" Jiang Youning asked the people watching around.
"It is said that Princess Ning'an lost something, and it is suspected that it was stolen by a thief. In order to prevent the things from being taken away from the imperial city, everyone who wants to leave must now undergo a strict body search, even the storage bag They all have to be opened and their contents checked.”
Hearing this, Jiang Youning couldn't help but frown. Although her things were placed in the Mijihua and Taoyuan treasures, and there was nothing in the storage bag, for cultivators, storage magic weapons and storage bags Bags are very private items and will not be viewed by anyone except those closest to them.
Especially now that the royal family has not announced what Princess Ning'an has lost at all. If the other party takes a fancy to their own things and says that this is what Princess Ning'an has lost, then where can they go to reason with her.
Jiang Youning hid in the crowd, thinking about what Princess Ning'an had thrown away that was worth such a big fight.
However, by intercepting so many cultivators at the dock and making such unreasonable demands, wouldn't the Emperor of Qingyan Kingdom be afraid of unrest? You must know that Qingyan Kingdom is not a royal palace.
Not only at the pier, but also those who wanted to call their own spiritual boats and leave were all stopped and asked to check their space magic weapons or storage bags. Naturally, they were rejected.
"Who do you think you are? You want to check my storage bag." A monk said angrily.
The scolded guard had a look of displeasure in his eyes, but he still said in a businesslike tone: "We are just following the instructions from above. If we want to leave, we must check it out."
"You said your princess lost something, then you should tell us what exactly you lost. Don't just talk empty words. In fact, you are interested in our things and you want nothing to do with it."
The monk's words immediately aroused everyone's agreement, which was also what they were most worried about.
Most of these people came to participate in the auction, and naturally they couldn't be in poverty. So their storage bags were searched for no reason. What difference did it make if they took off their clothes in public.
At this time, the captain of the guard was also very confused. He naturally knew that what Princess Ning'an lost was the parchment that recorded the secret elixir recipe, but he could not tell this matter at all. If the truth of the matter was told, Even if the parchment is recovered, I am afraid it will attract more covetous people.
The attitudes of both sides are very tough, and no one is willing to take a step back.
More and more people gathered around. Seeing this, Jiang Youning quietly withdrew from the crowd. It seemed that the matter would not be resolved for a while, so she decided not to get involved.
At this time, the stone egg in the mustard flower suddenly moved. Jiang Youning found a hidden corner and took it out.
"Is it about to hatch?"
In the past few days, Jiang Youning has been using elixirs to help the stone eggs, and the effect is remarkable. The stone eggs may hatch at any time.
However, after taking out the stone egg, there was no sign of breaking the shell.
"Is the eggshell too hard?" Jiang Youning knocked on the shell of the stone egg, wondering if she could help.
Suddenly, the stone egg's body shook, and a small crack suddenly appeared on the already petrified eggshell, and then the crack became bigger and bigger.
Seeing this scene, Jiang Youning realized that the stone egg was really about to hatch, and hurriedly walked towards the imperial city.
When I arrived at the small courtyard where I rented, the cracks on the surface of the stone egg had spread to every corner of the egg shell like a spider web.
Jiang Youning placed the stone egg on the table and stared at it without blinking, ready to step forward to help if anything went wrong.
As more and more cracks appeared on the surface, the stone egg showed no sign of breaking its shell. It seemed that turning the egg shell into this shape had exhausted all its strength.
At this time, it was Jiang Youning's turn to take action. He took out the tools he had prepared and used a dagger to pry up the pill on the top. He used this as a breakthrough to peel off the eggshell bit by bit.
Because the eggshell is petrified, this step is not simple.
Jiang Youning thought that after she opened the eggshell, there would be a furry and wet little guy inside, or a slippery little guy with scales. But now, she saw something. The eggshell was filled with transparent white liquid.
"Is this...water?"
She originally thought that the transparent liquid would be egg white, but after touching it with her hands, it simply felt like water.
Jiang Youning didn't believe that the stone egg she had worked so hard to hatch and delivered herself was actually a water egg.
She took out a container and poured out all the water in the eggshell, thinking that there could be a fish in the eggshell, that's why there was so much water.
However, the facts once again made her dumbfounded, because after pouring out all the water, there was really nothing inside except the white inner wall.
Jiang Youning: "..." I feel like I have been emotionally deceived.
She took a few deep breaths and threw the eggshell aside. It was getting late, so she decided to take a nap first.
night.
The silhouette of the moon was reflected in the water, and the soft white moonlight fell all around. Without any wind blowing, ripples suddenly appeared in the water that was originally calm.
