Traveling through troubled times: Princess disguises herself as a man and becomes a soldier to earn

Wen Ruosheng led his men in, and after closing the stone door, he looked around vigilantly. After making sure that there was no problem, he breathed a sigh of relief, with joy in his eyes: "Sure enough, this is the way out."

"Su Yan, once we find the treasure, it's up to you."

A thin man came out, his face full of cowardice, and his voice was barely audible: "...Yes, I, I understand."

After saying this, he lowered his head, his hands tightly grasping the hem of his clothes. He had been bullied in the past, and it was thanks to the Son of God that he saved him, otherwise he would have died by now. He wanted to repay the Son of God's kindness and help him take away the treasure.

That’s right, his ability is to receive things to that unknown place where no one can see it but himself and can take things out. It is because of his ability that the Son of God brought him here.

Wen Ruosheng nodded and winked at the others: "Protect Su Yan well. If he is here, we will have good luck in getting the treasures here. If anything happens to him, it will be difficult for us to take the things here away."

Everyone said in unison: "Yes, Lord, I understand."

Looking at the door in front of him, a man stepped forward and turned the stone plate. With a clicking sound, the door was opened. After the man went in, his eyes widened and he was stunned.

Upon seeing this, the others followed in. They were dazzled by the golden light and unconsciously covered their eyes with their sleeves. After they came to their senses, they looked at the hill of golden sand with shining eyes.

Wen Ruosheng held the fan and clapped his palms unconsciously: "Great, it's really great. If you have so much gold sand, your majesty's plan to unify the world will be accomplished without any worries."

"Someone, come and pack up all this gold sand and give it to Su Yan to keep."

Looking at the thin man, his expression was gentle: "Su Yan, thank you for your hard work."

"No, it's not hard. This is what I should do."

While everyone was busy collecting gold sand, Wen Ruosheng carefully observed his surroundings. After seeing the murals on the stone wall, he frowned subconsciously and felt inexplicably uneasy.

"Hurry up and finish loading the gold sands. We'll leave here right away. This place gives me a bad feeling."

Yin Feng stood beside him, looking at the mural, muttering, "Master, this mural seems to depict some kind of sacrifice, but why are those black spots appearing at the end? They look like insects. How could someone sacrifice insects?"

Wen Ruosheng shook his head: "I don't know. Anyway, we should get our things and leave as soon as possible to avoid any accidents. We have already lost half of our people and we cannot afford to lose any more."

"Otherwise, when we meet, there's no way I'll be able to compete with Si Ling."

"And... that madwoman. How could the Emperor of Qi, who is so cowardly, give birth to a madwoman? When she gets mad, she has no scruples at all. Yet, she is very powerful and cannot be defeated."

Yin Feng let out a breath and thought to himself that he must not run into that lunatic. No one wanted to fight with her because the losses would be too great. Even if there were only two people on the other side, they should not be underestimated.

The people who were busy loading the gold sand had no idea that after the gold sand was loaded, something was constantly crawling out of the small black holes at the bottom of the wall and climbing up along their legs.

A scream broke the original peace.

Wen Ruosheng flashed to Su Yan's side, grabbed his arm, and took him away. He looked at the person in the golden sand. The black bugs crawling on his body looked like palm-sized spiders, but they had human faces.

After seeing it clearly, I felt a chill rising from the soles of my feet.

He shouted, "Stop pretending to be Jinsha, and get out of here, quickly...quickly."

Wen Ruosheng led his men out first. The people in the golden sand had not yet reacted. After getting rid of the bugs on their bodies, they looked puzzled and said, "Son of God, they are just some bugs. Just get rid of them..."

"Ahhhhh!!"

Before he could finish his words, dense black dots fell from above his head, quickly engulfing and eating the person. He heard a scream, and after the bugs dispersed, only clothes and blood-stained bones were left on the golden sand.

This horrifying scene made the others shudder. They wanted to escape, only to find that their feet could no longer move. Dense black insects instantly submerged them.

There was a flash of struggle in Wen Ruosheng's eyes, but he finally made a decision. He clenched the folding fan in his hand, looked at the person with the black bugs walking towards him step by step, closed his eyes, and swung out a wind blade.

After killing those people, he looked at the insects rushing towards him and waved his hand: "Close the door, they... can only stay here forever, there is no way to save them, those insects are poisonous."

Yin Feng listened to the cries for help and screams from inside, closed his eyes, hardened his heart, turned the stone plate and closed the stone door. The sounds from inside stopped abruptly, and his hands trembled when he put them down.

Just now, if he had not come to the side of the Son of God and stayed away from the golden sand, he would have been eaten by those bugs now. It was really terrible.

The voice was trembling: "Master, what were those just now..."

Wen Ruosheng let out a breath, and was a little scared: "I don't know, but it's not a good thing anyway, similar to the ants chasing us outside, something that likes to eat flesh and blood, let's keep going."

He turned his head to look at the pale-faced man, raised his hand and gently patted his shoulder, patiently comforting him: "Don't be afraid, Su Yan, just stay by my side and don't leave too far, got it?"

Su Yan looked at him with a touched face and nodded obediently: "Well, I, I listened to the Holy Son. I packed half of the gold sand, but it's a pity that I didn't have time to pack the other half."

"It's okay, you've done a great job, let's keep going."

Wen Ruosheng looked at the remaining twenty or so people and sighed in his heart. A lot of people had been killed again. This was just the beginning. Who knew what weird things would happen next.

The group continued walking, and things went much more smoothly later on. They just encountered normal traps and did not encounter any scary monsters that were beyond their imagination.

"Stop and rest, eat some dry food, and don't open the stone door recklessly."

"Yes, Holy Son."

Yin Feng brought the dry food and water and said respectfully, "Master, please eat something first."

Wen Ruosheng took it, broke it in half, and handed it to Su Yan: "Take this and eat it. Eat enough. We don't know what will happen later. Eat it quickly while there is no danger, so that you won't have time to eat later."

"Okay, thank you, Holy Son."

"It's okay, Yin Feng, go ahead and take a look. If there's anything unusual, don't touch anything. Come back and tell me."

Yin Feng nodded, turned around and walked forward, and came back soon.

"Master, there are three doors ahead... They are somewhat similar to the ones we passed before. I'm afraid we have to choose again. Which door should we choose? There is no hint on it. I don't know how to choose."

Wen Ruosheng frowned, "It's okay, eat first, and after you've eaten and rested, we'll go over and take a look. Take out the map and see if there are any clues on it."

"Yes, master."
