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

Thinking of this, Jiang Li felt an inexplicable sense of superiority. He straightened his back unconsciously, with a look of confidence on his face, and said proudly: "That's right, I am the only Lord of Qi Country, and I always say what I mean."

"The eldest brother of Qi State is my brother, so you have to listen to me. If you don't listen, I have my father's will. Generally speaking, I am the eldest brother of Qi State. Hehe, Si Ling, you don't understand this feeling."

Si Ling was silent, looking at her with a frown, a weird look in his eyes.

Is this person crazy again? She said all sorts of nonsense and he didn't understand anything. In short, stopping the war was impossible. But if what she said was true, then a real war would be even more impossible. It would be troublesome if something more terrifying happened.

"Princess, since you are here, you must have a plan."

Jiang Li scratched his head, chuckled twice, and looked more and more stupid.

"That's right. Since I'm here, it must not be a wasted trip. There is a way that can not only allow you to give an explanation to the Feather Emperor, but also delay the resurrection of that thing. During this time, I will find that thing and kill it in advance. That's it."

Si Ling's mouth twitched, and he sneered: "You think too simply. That thing has been hidden for so long without any trace being discovered. It shows how scheming the person behind it is. Besides, a cunning rabbit has three burrows. It's too difficult to find it in advance."

Seeing him so discouraged, Jiang Li curled his lips and said unhappily, "That's enough, you've almost had enough. I came to you to find a way to deal with it, not to pour cold water on you. I must kill that thing."

"Even if we can't kill him, he's still a thing, right? We can just tear him apart. I don't believe he's that awesome. He can walk without legs and fight without hands, so he's still a thing, so he must have some weaknesses."

"If we don't find a way to kill it, then it will kill us. No, we won't die. It treats the Venerable with favor. It will only imprison our souls in its body and make us puppets to kill people."

Upon hearing this, Si Ling looked up suddenly with a look of surprise in his eyes.

Seeing this, Jiang Li snorted, "Oh, you're getting excited already. It seems like you're more interested in the Puppet Master than that ghost thing. Come, let me show you. I brought it here because I was afraid you wouldn't believe me. Isn't it thoughtful?"

With a thought, three puppets appeared out of thin air, untied their restraints, and soon several puppets attacked them, with water arrows, fireballs, and earth spikes in turn...

Si Ling dodged while observing the three puppets, as if he was confirming something. He raised his hand and a bone-chilling cold air spread, freezing the three of them.

With his brows furrowed, he stared into their empty eyes. It seemed that he could feel a sense of oppression inside, which made him feel sad unconsciously. Something flashed through his mind, and his soul was imprisoned. He could see and feel, but he felt powerless and unable to move.

Seeing him in a daze, Jiang Li jumped over and stretched his neck to look. Not seeing anything wrong, he shouted, "Hey, Si Ling, what are you looking at? Is there a relative of yours in here? Are you too obsessed with it?"

"…Princess, read more books and don't use random words."

"Oh, poor people are so picky. Tell me, what were you looking at just now?"

Si Ling walked over and looked at one of the puppets, and said with some certainty: "I have seen this person before, when he was very young. I didn't expect that after so many years, he has not changed at all. He is indeed immortal, but as a puppet, immortality is not what he really wants."

Hearing him say that, Jiang Li knew there was something fishy going on, so he came over with great interest and urged him, "There must be something fishy going on, right? Tell me in detail, let me hear it. Maybe I can find some clues to catch the person behind it."

"Well, this person was the Venerable of the Yu Kingdom Temple twenty years ago. If he hadn't left, perhaps he would have been the Venerable. But at that time, he only wanted to live forever. He said that the Venerable was a god, so why could he be like a mortal and not live more than a hundred years."

After a stick of incense

Jiang Li finished eating the melon and let out a breath: "It's for immortality. Why don't you just follow the laws of birth, aging, sickness and death? Why do you have to go against the laws of nature? You are all sick in the head."

If there hadn't been someone in the previous life who was determined to study immortality, how could they have come up with that terrible virus that devours human flesh and blood and makes people become inhumane? In comparison, the things here seem to also devour human flesh and blood.

Well, in these two lives, she just had to fight against ghosts.

Si Ling was a little uncomfortable when he saw that she was silent. He looked over and saw that she was emitting resentment. His eyebrows jumped: "Princess, what's wrong with you? You seem to hate immortality."

Jiang Li's eyes darkened, and he said expressionlessly, "Yes, there are always a small number of fools who don't care about anything in order to achieve immortality. They will bring disaster to the people of the world. Those who seek immortality deserve to die."

"Well, people who go against the will of heaven will never have a good ending since ancient times."

"Si Ling, since you know this person, I'll leave him to you for safekeeping. I feel sick when I see him and want to burn him to death, so I'd better keep him by your side. Just be careful and use your mental power to restrain him, otherwise..."

Si Ling pursed her lips and asked in confusion: "Mental restraint, what is that?"

Jiang Li turned his head and looked at him with a somewhat urgent look in his eyes: "Do you want to experience it yourself? I can demonstrate it on you, but don't get angry afterwards, and don't come to me for revenge."

"Heh, this doesn't sound like a good thing. You should keep the puppet. I didn't expect you to have two abilities. You must have secretly collected a lot of things in the imperial mausoleum under Yu Country."

"Hey, don't talk nonsense, I didn't steal anything."

Si Ling glanced at her and changed the subject: "Okay, put the puppet away. My eyes hurt just looking at it. As for the war, tell me if you have any way to deal with it. I don't want to fight with you."

Jiang Li waved his hand and the three puppets disappeared.

"Hey, listen to me, let's do this, and then..."

"Yes, I will cooperate, but if it happens too many times, I'm afraid people will find out something is wrong. Besides, this commander is not me after all. I can only give advice but cannot control it. You understand what I mean, right?"

"I understand. Your speaking position is not as high as mine, so it is inevitable that you will be restricted."

Si Ling pulled the corner of his mouth and said unhappily: "You can praise yourself, but don't put me down. If you are fine, you can go back. If a man and a woman are alone in a room at night, if someone sees us, where will my reputation be?"

Jiang Li rolled his eyes when he heard this: "That's enough. You keep acting like this every day, and you don't feel tired. Okay, I won't talk nonsense with you anymore. Just follow the plan. I'm going back first."

"By the way, you should also have people pay attention. There have been many missing people recently. If there are many of them, it must be the work of evil spirits."
