The abandoned farm was clearly there. It would be difficult not to take a second look. The collapsed fences and dilapidated walls also attracted their attention.
However, they only paid attention to it for a moment. Such a situation was normal in a war-torn place. The few of them did not stop and continued on their way.
"Are you sure this is the only path in this area?" someone on a galloping horse asked.
"At the very least, this is the shortest path. Madam is anxious to see the Viceroy, so she should be going this way."
"A woman actually dared to leave home and sneak into a war-torn place. She is simply causing trouble and causing trouble! If anything happens to her, we will not be able to answer to our sect, much less the Viceroy! "
"Sigh, I can understand her feelings. Two million soldiers in the river defense were wiped out, and six hundred thousand soldiers of the Song army were killed. The Viceroy returned from Yan without achieving anything. Furthermore, she learned that Meng Shanming might not allow the Viceroy to return safely. She is worried that something might happen to the Viceroy."
"This woman is really unreasonable. What is the point of her coming here? You should not have let her know that the war is not going well. Otherwise, how could she escape? "
"Martial Uncle, there is no way to seal off the news. We can't possibly put her under house arrest, right? The people she interacts with are either rich or noble, and they are all well-informed people. If she wanted to find out, how could she not know that the war is not going well? Her husband is out at war, and she has been paying attention to this matter. There is no way to hide it. Furthermore, if we seal off the news, she will think that something has happened. Senior Brother, to put it bluntly, she only ran away because we stopped her from coming. That's why she thought of a way to shake us off and run away. "
"There is no point in trying to reason with me. You better pray that nothing happens to her. Otherwise, I want to see how you are going to answer!"
…
"Monkey, can this be eaten?"
In the forest, Silver 'er blinked and asked suspiciously when she saw Yuan Gang carrying a person over.
Yuan Gang was stunned.
Uncle Chen and the others were also stunned. They looked at Silver 'er in a different light, feeling like she was a celestial being.
How could you not recognize such a living person?
However, this foodie didn't seem to be joking. Everyone knew that this foodie wasn't one to joke around.
If it was someone else who said this, everyone would definitely take it as a joke. However, when Silver said this, everyone felt their hairs stand on end. If she said that she could eat, then this glutton wouldn't really eat living people, right? What was wrong with him?
To be honest, Yuan Gang was a little shocked by Silver's words. He vaguely felt that this Demon King was not averse to eating humans.
After knowing it for so long, this was the first time Yuan Gang realized that this Demon King had the potential to eat humans.
Yuan Gang didn't say much. He loosened his grip and threw the woman on the ground.
Silver leaned over and examined the woman. Yuan Gang suddenly made a move and ruthlessly chopped at the back of Silver's neck.
Yin 'er's eyes rolled back and she fainted, lying on the woman's body.
"What are you …" Uncle Chen asked Yuan Gang in confusion.
"Remember, if she wakes up, knock her out immediately and wait for Daoye to come back," Yuan Gang instructed everyone.
He had no other choice. He couldn't find the seasoning to cook, Niu Youdao and Shang Shuqing weren't here, and there was no one here who could appease this Demon King. He also didn't know when Niu Youdao would come back, so he could only knock Silver 'er out first. Otherwise, if Silver' er revealed her Demon King's true form and didn't recognize anyone, no one would be able to escape.
However, the people here didn't know Silver's background, so he couldn't explain it.
Everyone looked at each other, not knowing why Yuan Gang treated Silver 'er like this. She was just a foodie, did he have to treat her like this?
"Eh!" Uncle Chen suddenly pointed at the woman on the ground. "Why does this woman look a little familiar?"
A few people came up to take a look. Eighth Zhu said in surprise, "The lady boss of White Cloud, Su Zhao?"
"No, she looks like her. She just looks like her. She's prettier than Su Zhao, but she's not Su Zhao." Sixth Xu shook his head.
These elders of Fufang Garden had been hanging around Qi Capital for many years, so they had all seen Su Zhao in White Cloud.
"I heard that the lady boss of White Cloud has changed, and Su Zhao's whereabouts are unknown."
A few people were discussing Su Zhao, but Yuan Gang, who knew where Su Zhao went, was silent. He silently stared at the unconscious woman on the ground.
After some discussion, Uncle Chen asked, "Monkey, who is this woman?"
Yuan Gang replied, "I don't know."
"…" Everyone was speechless. What did you want to do by bringing her here?
They didn't believe that Yuan Gang had done such a thing because he was drooling over her beauty. However, Yuan Gang didn't want to say much, so they couldn't get anything out of him.
Fortunately, not long after, a large bird landed in the forest. Niu Youdao and Guan Fangyi returned.
When they saw the two women on the ground, they were stunned.
The faint silver lines on Silver 'er's face made Niu Youdao frown. As for the other woman, he only felt that she looked familiar, as if he had seen her somewhere before, but he couldn't remember where.
Guan Fangyi was surprised, "Su Zhao? Why is she here? Eh, it's not her. She's prettier than Su Zhao! "She looked up at the crowd and asked," Where did this woman come from? "
Everyone looked at Yuan Gang, who was silent at the side. Xu Laoliu said, "He left for a while and brought her here from outside. We don't know where she came from."
Su Zhao? After hearing Guan Fangyi's name, Niu Youdao was shocked. He finally remembered where he had seen her.
To be exact, he hadn't seen her before, but he had drawn her.
He had never seen Su Zhao before. He had only drawn her according to Guan Fangyi's description in Fufang Garden. Although he had stayed in Qi Capital for a long time, he had never seen Su Zhao in person.
Because of the difference between the drawing and the real person, Niu Youdao felt that she looked more like her.
A woman who looked like Su Zhao was brought here by Yuan Gang. Niu Youdao's gaze slowly turned to Yuan Gang. Others might not know about the relationship between Yuan Gang and Su Zhao, but he did. It was a pain in Yuan Gang's heart.
He also knew that Su Zhao was dead. He knew that Su Zhao was buried in the desert by Yuan Gang. Yuan Gang told him.
"What happened? Did you kidnap her just because she looks like her? "Niu Youdao asked hesitantly.
He didn't dare to guarantee Yuan Gang's innocence on this matter. He didn't dare to make a judgment for Yuan Gang when it came to relationships.
Yuan Gang said, "You're thinking too much."
Their conversation made Guan Fangyi suspicious. Everyone else was also suspicious. Why did it feel like there was something going on between Yuan Gang and the lady boss among the clouds?
Niu Youdao asked, "Then what's going on?"
Yuan Gang said, "This person is a little suspicious. She actually apologized to the two farmers on behalf of the Song Army. Her identity might not be ordinary …" He glanced at everyone and saw that everyone was confused, so he explained the situation to them.
Everyone nodded. If that was the case, this woman's background was indeed suspicious. She disguised herself as a man and apologized to the people on behalf of the Song army.
Niu Youdao glanced at Yuan Gang's expression and suddenly said, "No matter where she comes from, we need to keep our whereabouts a secret. It's not appropriate to bring such an unknown person. Laoliu, take her away and deal with her. Deal with her cleanly. "
Xu Laoliu nodded. He bent over to grab the woman and deal with her.
A hand pressed down on Xu Laoliu's shoulder. Xu Laoliu turned around and saw Yuan Gang grabbing his shoulder.
Yuan Gang said, "Daoye, I think it's better to figure out her identity first. She might be useful to us."
Guan Fangyi agreed. "Indeed. She shouldn't be an ordinary person if she speaks on behalf of the Song army. If she has a powerful background, she might be useful. Daoye, the monkey is right. It's better to figure out who she is first. An ordinary person can't do anything. If she's not important, there's no need for us to kill innocent people. "
Niu Youdao glanced at Yuan Gang out of the corner of his eye and said, "Fine!" He nodded in acknowledgment.
Guan Fangyi immediately squatted down and searched the woman's body. She didn't find anything that could prove her identity. She only found some hidden weapons like sleeve darts and some money. Finally, she used her arts to organize the woman's aura.
Soon, the woman slowly woke up. When she opened her eyes, she saw a group of people. She immediately sat up and crawled backwards, knocking into a tree. Because of her previous injuries, she groaned in pain. In the end, she supported herself against the tree and slowly stood up. Her bright eyes stared at Yuan Gang, who had injured her. She bit her lip and asked, "Who are you people?"
Niu Youdao stared at her reaction and suddenly said, "I am … Niu Youdao!"
"You are Niu Youdao?" The woman exclaimed. She quickly sized up Niu Youdao, who was standing with his sword, and then quickly scanned the crowd.
Niu Youdao smiled. The woman immediately realized something, and a vexed expression flashed across her face.
The crowd also looked at each other. They all knew that Niu Youdao had found out the other party's depth with a single sentence. He was indeed not an ordinary person.
The reason was simple. Most people wouldn't have such a big reaction, even if they didn't know who Niu Youdao was.
Niu Youdao answered with a smile, "That's right. Who are you?"
The woman's eyes flashed. Now that she knew that the other party was Niu Youdao, she didn't dare to reveal her identity. She suddenly said a name, "Su Zhao!"
As soon as she said this, Yuan Gang's heartstrings trembled.
"…" Everyone, including Niu Youdao, was dumbfounded. She could have said any name, but she just had to say the name of the person who looked similar to her. Everyone was confused.
Niu Youdao quickly sorted out his thoughts. He looked at the crowd and asked, "Did any of you mention this name in front of her?"
Everyone looked at each other. They did mention it before, but wasn't the other party unconscious just now? She shouldn't have heard it.
Yuan Gang spoke up. "When I knocked her down and revealed her true appearance, I mistook her for Su Zhao and mentioned her name."
So that's why! Niu Youdao looked at him from the corner of his eyes. "I'll leave it to you. Pry open her mouth!"
Yuan Gang nodded.
Niu Youdao waved his hand to signal for the woman who called herself 'Su Zhao' to be taken away. He then looked at Silver and asked, "What's wrong with Silver?"
Yuan Gang told him about Silver throwing a tantrum and asking for food.
The others were confused, but Niu Youdao and Guan Fangyi immediately understood what was going on.
Guan Fangyi subconsciously pressed her chest. She was very clear about the consequences of this Demon King's anger. Fortunately, this Demon King didn't act up.
