"I'm worried that Xiaocai will be taken advantage of because of her young age and simple mind!" Ma Qiancheng said seriously.
Wen Yu looked at her and nodded seriously, "I know, we are also keeping an eye on Xiao Cai. Just take it in your mind and don't worry about this matter."
Wen Yu smiled at her and strode away.
Ma Qiancheng suddenly felt that Wen Yu's smile was so beautiful, just like the sunshine at this moment...
Well, the sun was so bright right now... it made her eyes dazzled.
…
It was night and most people were asleep.
Only the people standing guard and patrolling at night were still awake.
A sneaky figure quietly came outside Jiang Ye's tent.
"Master Jiang..." he called softly.
"Wow!" Not far away was Wen Jin's tent.
The snow mastiff outside the tent suddenly stood up and barked wildly at Jiang Ye's tent.
"Hush, hush! Good dog, don't bark!" He quickly imitated Yue'er's usual dog-training tone and whispered.
"Woo——"
The mastiff was angry, baring its teeth and making a threatening sound.
Fortunately, a voice came from Jiang Ye's tent, "Come in."
This sneaky figure, like a monk, hurriedly got into the tent, "Huh, I'm scared to death, that mastiff is really vicious."
"Li...what's Li?" Jiang Ye leaned sleepily on the soft pillow.
"Master Hui, little Xing Jiu, who doesn't have a big name, is called little Li Laojiu." Li Laojiu said flatteringly.
"It's midnight, you're not sleeping, what are you doing here?"
"Master, when do you plan to take action?"
"Do it?" Jiang Ye raised his eyebrows.
"Yes! Have you forgotten? Baby... Such a big night pearl!" Li Laojiu said, secretly observing Jiang Ye's face.
Seeing him didn't seem to be tempted.
Li Laojiu immediately added, "Besides, I think about it, the reason why these mastiffs and hounds listen to a little girl so much is not because of the little girl's greatness! It's because of the luminous pearl!"
"That's the luminous pearl given by the giant python. It's absolutely extraordinary! Maybe it's some kind of fairy thing! It has a fairy spirit, so the big dogs listen to her words so much!"
Jiang Ye listened quietly to Li Laojiu's words without interrupting.
Li Laojiu talked to himself for a while, but when he saw Jiang Ye just looking at him with a smile... he couldn't help but panic.
"Jiang...Master Jiang?"
"It seems like you didn't listen to what I told you last time?"
"Ah, I... I heard it, I heard it!"
"What did I say?" Jiang Ye sat up straight and looked at him sharply.
Li Laojiu broke into a cold sweat.
"Have I ever told you that what you hate the most is others trying to scheme and take advantage of me?" Jiang Ye reached out and patted Li Laojiu on the face, "Li Laojiu, you are so brave! What do you want to do? You want to use me as a gun ?You want to lend my hand to get rid of the family named Wen? And the one named Ma?"
"Get rid of them, and this team will be yours, right?"
Li Laojiu swallowed hard and did not dare to speak under the sharp gaze of this "dandy".
"Hmph! Idiot! Do you know who he is?" Jiang Ye said angrily, "He is the person you want to fawn over, but you can't! He is the one who is superior! On weekdays, he sharpens his head and meets everyone he wants. Someone who has never met before! Now I have such an opportunity and can get along with him day and night!"
"What a rare opportunity this is! Don't think about how to leave a good impression on that guy...you still want to kill him? Are you worthy?! Bah!"
Li Laojiu was confused after hearing this...
Who is Master Jiang talking about?
"You don't understand, do you?" Jiang Ye looked at Li Laojiu with a half-smile.
Li Laojiu nodded repeatedly, "Please give me some advice from Mr. Jiang!"
"Who do you want to please by killing them and seizing the Night Pearl?" Jiang Ye asked in a low voice.
Li Laojiu opened his mouth to speak.
"Shhh..." Jiang Ye put his index finger to his mouth, "Just know it in your heart, don't say it out loud. Be careful, and kill all the thoughts you shouldn't have! Make the cover brighter, you can live a few more days. !get out!"
Li Laojiu rolled out of Jiang Ye's tent.
He immediately felt that the three mastiffs were staring at him with bright eyes as if they were staring at prey!
Li Laojiu didn't dare to delay for a moment, greased his feet, and hurried away.
After sneaking back to his tent, he breathed a sigh of relief.
He looked at the tent and felt sad... He used to live in a tent by himself!
Now, he and several soldiers crowded into a tent!
He raised his eyes to the sky, squinted his eyes and murmured, "I can't please the man from above... Offering the night pearl... Could it be that he is the emperor?"
"No, no, no...how is that possible?"
"Or, is it Master National Preceptor?"
Thinking of this, Li Laojiu immediately felt a chill running down his spine...
"No, that's even more impossible. Your Majesty the Imperial Master is an old immortal! Even the immortals who have attained the Tao... they are nowhere near that level!"
Li Laojiu quickly comforted himself.
"So, what Mr. Jiang said about the people who are usually unreachable is..."
"Is it the prince?"
"If you are not the emperor or the national preceptor, then you can only be the prince! Is any of them a prince?"
Li Laojiu knocked on his head. After thinking about it, he felt that this guess was the only one that was more reliable.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but take a deep breath.
If he offended the prince, why would he go to the capital or offer any treasures? What about high-ranking officials and generous salaries?
The prince probably hates him! If he enters Beijing, he will enter the dragon's pond and the tiger's den! Seeking death!
Li Laojiu squinted his eyes.
The wind in the late autumn night blew past his ears and into the gaps in his clothes.
The cold wind made his swollen and heated head feel colder and colder.
"No, the ants are still trying to survive. I, Li Laojiu, must not sit back and wait for death! I have to find a way to reverse the situation!"
Li Laojiu stared at Wen Jin's tent from a distance.
It was far away, and he couldn't actually see the tent, but his eyes were focused tightly in the dark night.
He pursed his thin lips fiercely and squeezed out a sentence from between his teeth, "I won't stop doing it! If you want to force me to death, I can only fight to the death!"
Early the next morning, the people who shared the tent with Li Laojiu woke up and found that Li Laojiu was not in the tent.
"Did Lao Jiu not come back last night, or did he go out early this morning?"
"Then who knows? I went to bed early last night."
"I guess you haven't come back?"
"He didn't come back. Where did he go? Could he be..."
"Cough!" Li Laojiu's heavy coughing sound came from outside the tent.
The people in the tent immediately shut up.
Li Laojiu opened the curtain and came in. He was also holding a gray rabbit in his hand. There was an arrow stuck in the rabbit's neck. The rabbit was dead and its body was hard.
"I went hunting, thinking of giving the brothers a tooth-whacking ritual, but unfortunately I didn't catch any good prey, so I met a rabbit." Li Laojiu smiled coquettishly, "If you don't mind, brothers can take it..."
"I don't dislike it, I don't dislike it! What did Ninth Brother say? How can brothers dislike it?"
The few people in the tent who were gossiping about him immediately took the rabbit eagerly.
"Come on, let's skin the rabbit and give it to Chef Wang. He can make spicy rabbit meat!" Several people quickly left the tent.
Seeing that there was no one in the tent, Li Laojiu took out a palm-sized yellow paper bag from his arms. The paper bag contained crushed medicinal powder.
Li Laojiu put the powder to his nose and sniffed, "Hey, this medicine... can kill them!"
