Sickly Scholar said indifferently, "Let us go, don't let anyone chase after us. Otherwise … I'll kill him. "
Lei Jiang thought for a moment and nodded, "Alright. But … return the things you took from the underground palace to me! "He pointed at Ye Li and An San, his eyes filled with killing intent. Ye Li blinked and innocently smiled, "It's not anything good, is there a need to? I'll just return it to you. Who knows what you're writing on it? "Lei Jiang stared at him suspiciously," If you don't understand, why did you take it? " Ye Li smiled, "If it's something important, I suggest you don't decorate it so beautifully. Isn't it obvious that you're asking people to take it? This Young Master's favorite thing in life is those gorgeous little trinkets. Here, I'll return this useless broken thing to you. "After saying this, Ye Li took out something and threw it over. Lei Jiang caught it in his hands. It was a dark wooden box. On the box, there were a few twisted words that he didn't know if it was a picture or a word. It could be seen that the box originally had some decorations on it, but now it was full of uneven holes. The decorations on it were obviously taken away by someone.
Lei Jiang checked the box and found that there were no signs of it being triggered. He let out a sigh of relief. The expression on his face also became better. Looking at Ye Li arrogantly playing with a shiny golden object in his hands, he smiled and said, "There are a few other things that I took from the table. I believe that Patriarch Lei Jiang won't be so stingy as to not even let me leave a souvenir, right? "
Lei Jiang snorted, "You can leave." He obviously knew what was missing from the underground palace. It wasn't anything important, so he was too lazy to pursue it with them. Sickly Scholar dragged Master Liang and warned him, "Don't play any tricks, otherwise I'll make sure he dies without leaving any ashes."
Ye Li and An San had already prepared horses. Once they left the village, the four of them mounted the horses and rushed towards the northwest. It wasn't until the sky gradually brightened that they finally saw the main road. They all breathed a sigh of relief. Han Mingxi smiled and said, "Yesterday was really exciting. It's all thanks to Junwei. Let's rest here for a while. The next town was only about ten miles away from here. They could rest there for a day. If everything goes smoothly, we'll be able to reach Nanzhao's capital in seven or eight days at most. "
Sickly Scholar vetoed, "Let's bypass the town and head straight for Nanzhao's capital."
"You're not tired, but we are," Han Mingxi said discontentedly.
Sickly Scholar said coldly, "Do you think we can complain about the hotel if we bring him along? Also, do you really think that Le Jiang won't send people after us? "
Han Mingxi snorted. "Who's with you? You've found the person you're looking for. Go ask him where the item is. Let's part ways and go our separate ways. Haven't we suffered enough because of you yesterday? Isn't that right, Junwei? "Ye Li played with the exquisite gem ornament in her hand and smiled," It's not bad. But … … if we go our separate ways, will Third Master give me the reward he promised me? "Sickly Scholar's eyes flashed," So it's best to go the same way, right? Otherwise, Young Master Chu won't be at ease. "Ye Li smiled and said," Anyway, so many things have already happened. It doesn't matter if it happens a little more. If we give up halfway, wouldn't it mean that everything I did yesterday was in vain? "
Hearing Ye Li say this, Han Mingxi could only nod helplessly, "I hope this Young Master won't be killed by you."
Ye Li smiled and said, "Actually, Brother Han can return to the Central Plains as soon as possible. In any case, Brother Han isn't interested in what Third Master is looking for." Han Mingxi turned his head and flatly refused, "This Young Master thinks it's fun to follow Junwei. Wherever Junwei goes, this Young Master will go. If we go together, then let's go together! When has this Young Master ever been afraid of anyone? "
The four of them decided to rest for a while. Sickly Scholar didn't want to wait any longer and dragged Master Liang to the side to torture him. Han Mingxi was also jealous of Master Liang and followed to watch. Ye Li expressed that she wasn't interested. Although An San was interested, he definitely wouldn't show it in front of outsiders. He also stayed by Ye Li's side to protect her. Ye Li walked to a large tree and sat down. She glanced at Han Mingxi and Sickly Scholar in the distance before taking out some odds and ends from her sleeves. Among them were two pieces of white paper. Ye Li took out a sharpened charcoal pen from her bag with satisfaction and began to write and draw on the paper.
An San stood to the side and looked at his distorted and strange drawing on the paper, "Didn't Young Master say that he didn't know these words? Did Young Master lie to them? "
Ye Li shook her head and smiled, "I don't really know, but other people do. However, it's a bit difficult to remember things that you don't know. Originally, I should have remembered it yesterday, but I was worried that it would be troublesome if it was discovered. Now … … I shouldn't have remembered wrongly. "After speaking, Ye Li lowered her head and continued to write and draw on the paper. She said to An San, "Actually, I don't really know what this thing is either. However, I do recognize that box. The thing that I knocked off seems to be the imprint of the Southern Border Saintess, so this thing should be very important." Actually, she saw some more interesting things. However, she could understand those things so she naturally remembered them well. After looking at it for a while, she threw it back to its original place. Of course, she didn't need to rush to write it out now.
An San nodded and silently felt pity for Clan Leader Luo Yi who thought that the treasure was undamaged. He definitely wouldn't know that when Young Master was waiting for the sky to turn dark in Snake Valley, he had already taken out the thing inside and studied it for over an hour before putting it back. In his heart, An San was very impressed with his master's lockpicking skills. He was thinking about when he should ask Young Master for advice.
After a while, Ye Li slowly wrote on a piece of paper. Satisfied, he checked his memory twice before handing it over to An San and said, "Get someone to send this home as soon as possible and see what this thing is."
An San nodded and thought for a bit before looking at Ye Li. He wanted to say something but hesitated. Ye Li looked at him with some amusement, "If you have something to say, just say it." An San looked at the paper in his hand and asked in a small voice, "We've already been out for quite some time. Since Young Master wants to send a letter home, shouldn't you write a letter home to let the family know that Young Master is safe? "
A letter home? Ye Li was stunned. Ever since she came out, in order to not let people discover her whereabouts, she never gave Mo Xiuyao any information. Even the Shadow Guards who were scattered all over the place didn't contact her. Thinking of what Mo Xiuyao told her, Ye Li couldn't help but feel a little guilty. Looking at the extra paper in her hand, since there was still some left, she might as well write a letter.
Ye Li didn't care what Sickly Scholar did to Master Liang. When she saw Master Liang being dragged behind Sickly Scholar, she only told him to be careful not to kill him. Sickly Scholar wasn't a good person with a kind heart, and this Master Liang wasn't a good person either. Hearing Ye Li's words, Sickly Scholar only snorted in disdain and didn't say anything. If he didn't want a person to die, then that person couldn't die even if they wanted to. But looking at Sickly Scholar's gloomy face, Ye Li knew in her heart that he probably didn't get what he wanted from Master Liang. After all, if this old man's mouth was that easy to pry open, he wouldn't have followed him all the way to Nan Jiang. But Sickly Scholar wasn't completely without gain, at least he waited for that so called complete token. Ye Li looked at it from afar, it was a piece of jade engraved with strange patterns. Because Sickly Scholar didn't plan on sharing it with them, Ye Li didn't ask about it. The group carefully avoided the people sent by the Luo Yi tribe to follow them, and rushed towards Nan Zhao's capital without stopping.
