Ren Baqian's expression changed. He knew that he couldn't hide this matter, so he said softly, "Lin Qiaole is in the forest."
"Lin Qiaole is in the forest."
What about Gong Zheng? "The empress was a little surprised and happy. "I didn't see her!" Ren Baqian shook his head.
"What's the situation with Lin Qiaole?" the empress asked again.
"What's the situation with Lin Qiaole?" the empress asked again.
"… I'm not sure!" Ren Baqian said hesitantly.
The empress instantly appeared beside him, took the binoculars from his hand, looked ahead, and asked, "Where is she?"
However, she saw it without Ren Baqian's help.
Ren Baqian felt a gust of wind blow past him. From the corner of his eye, he saw a red figure flash and disappear.
"Brother-in-law! Her Majesty has rushed over! "Ren Baqian shouted at the bottom of the tree and followed her.
The forest was like a group of demons dancing in a frenzy.
Groups of jade-waisted slaves filled the forest, lying on the ground or on the tree trunks, causing the forest to be filled with a dark green glow.
Occasionally, a jade-waisted slave would fly up, and it was a breathtakingly beautiful sight.
If one were to say that it was a beautiful scenery, then this forest was a little strange.
A pretty girl in a dirty tube top and shorts was in the forest. From time to time, she would pounce on a group of jade-waisted slaves, scaring them into the air. The girl would grab one and stuff it into her mouth as if she was tasting something delicious. She closed her eyes and reveled in it for a moment.
Not long after, the girl curled up on the ground, either because she was full or because she was tired.
She hugged her knees and curled up as much as possible, just like a baby in a mother's womb.
At this time, a red figure landed in front of the forest and stared at the girl.
"Lin Qiaole!" The empress's voice was cold and full of murderous intent.
In fact, the empress and Lin Qiaole had a good relationship. Lin Qiaole had been in the palace longer than the empress, and she always had the image of a young girl.
When the empress was young, she felt that Lin Qiaole was like an elder sister.
As she gradually grew up, Lin Qiaole became a younger sister.
Although they didn't have a deep relationship, it wasn't shallow.
Therefore, when Lin Qiaole got the White Rabbit Creamy Candy from Ren Baqian, she immediately ran to the empress to present it.
It was precisely because of their friendship that Lin Qiaole appeared here after Gong Zheng disappeared. One could imagine how furious the empress was.
The empress's appearance instantly startled the jade-waisted slaves in the forest. They flew up and circled in the air like ribbons of lights.
Lin Qiaole's curled up body was now lying on the ground. Her limbs were maintained at a certain angle, as if she was ready to pounce at any time.
A small face stared at the empress expressionlessly.
"You want to fight with me?" Looking at this situation, the Water Empress laughed.
However, even Ren Baqian, who was chasing after him, could feel the killing intent as if he was being pricked by needles.
"Your Majesty!" Ren Baqian landed behind the empress and said, "Your Majesty, don't be anxious. Lin Qiaole is a little strange!"
"Since when did Lin Qiaole dare to act like an animal in front of His Majesty? This in itself isn't normal! "Ren Baqian said anxiously.
The empress gradually calmed down after hearing what Ren Baqian said.
"You're right!"
Ren Baqian carefully stared at Lin Qiaole and said, "Your Majesty, look at her eyes. They have vertical pupils."
The empress looked at Lin Qiaole seriously. Indeed, as Ren Baqian said, Lin Qiaole's pupils were vertical and oval. There was even a little green color hidden in her pupils.
"Your Majesty, do you still remember that Bor asked us for our names back then? After that, the second herdsman also asked us about our names.
I was curious about what would happen if they knew our names.
Now that I see Lin Qiaole's condition, I have some conjectures.
If those herdsmen can control a person through their name, then it makes sense.
That explained why the Ancient race beings would come here without a sound, and die in silence one by one.
It also makes sense why Lin Qiaole became like this, "Ren Baqian said thoughtfully.
The empress remained silent after hearing this. Ren Baqian's conjecture seemed to be very likely.
She suddenly felt a sense of anticipation and hoped that things were really as Ren Baqian said.
If possible, she didn't want to kill this girl, who hadn't changed much in more than 20 years.
Qi Ziting, Ba Man, and the others landed beside the empress and looked at the dancing jade-waisted slaves in the forest. Most importantly, they looked at the girl lying on the ground.
"What's this?" Qi Ziting asked with a frown.
"Lin Qiaole!" Ren Baqian suddenly shouted.
Lin Qiaole, who was lying on the ground, suddenly shivered. Her pupils narrowed as if she was startled by Ren Baqian's sudden shout.
At this moment, a burst of desolate music rang out.
The jade-waisted slaves flew in the direction of the sound.
Lin Qiaole lay on the ground and retreated more than 10 steps. Seeing that no one had any intention of attacking, she turned around and quickly fled into the forest.
"Go!" The empress only said one word before slowly walking into the depths of the forest.
At this point, hiding wasn't important anymore.
The important thing was to take down Lin Qiaole and this herdsman.
Not long after they entered the forest, Ren Baqian suddenly stopped and said with an indescribable emotion, "Your Majesty!"
"I see Gong Zheng!"
The empress turned her head abruptly and saw that he was staring at a tree. On the bark of that tree, there was a human face.
The appearance of that face sent a chill down the empress's spine.
It was Gong Zheng!
The face on the tree was distorted, full of pain, and its mouth was wide open.
Although it appeared on the surface of the tree's bark and was somewhat different from a human body, one could still tell that it looked very similar to Gong Zheng!
"Captain of the winged cavalry?" Qi Ziting asked. He looked at the face on the tree and swung his walking stick at it. "Living like this is worse than death!"
Bang!
The empress swung her walking stick away.
"Why stop me?" Qi Ziting looked at the empress. "This tree is him, right? It's better to die than to live like this! "
"Capture Lin Qiaole and the herdsman first, then come back and deal with this place. Maybe we can find out something after we capture the herdsman," Ren Baqian said.
He finally knew why he felt that the forest was strange before.
It turned out that this forest that was baring its fangs and brandishing its claws was transformed from a single person!
This truth was simply terrifying.
At this moment, he still held onto a glimmer of hope that the herdsman could actually transform people like this. Perhaps there was a way to save them!
However, he also knew that this hope was extremely slim.
"Get someone to keep an eye on this place. Let's go!" After saying this, the empress turned away from the tree and walked into the depths of the forest with a solemn expression.
Her red dress fluttered despite the absence of wind.
Her hair also fluttered behind her.
With the empress as the center, the coldness spread in all directions, causing everyone to feel cold all over.
