Splendid Twins

Si Yang is now bolder and talks to Gou Huan one after another. Seeing this, Si Yao chuckles:

"Gou Huan, the rest is yours."

As he said this, he threw the bamboo tube in his hand to him. There was still half a can of seasoning in it, enough for him to have a meal.

"He drinks soup, and I eat meat!"

Ling Feng continued:

"They're barbecuing over there. I'm sure it tastes delicious."

"Let's go."

Zhou Yu at the side endured it again and again, and said in a mocking tone:

"It will win people's hearts!"

Si Yao rolled her eyes:

"Can you please stop being such an ungrateful person? I came all the way here to save you."

Zhou Yu became even angrier when he heard this, and lowered his voice and said angrily:

"How dare you, a girl, go on this journey alone? Have you ever thought about the consequences?"

Si Yao raised her eyebrows:

"Are you worried about me?"

"I'm worried about my sister's health!"

"Yes, yes, you are right."

Si Yao didn't want to argue with this man, so she nodded perfunctorily.

"What do you mean? I'm warning you, only if my sister's body is intact, you will have a chance to appear in the world!"

But Zhou Yu refused to agree. Why did he occupy Yaoyao's body and not take good care of her?

Si Yao pulled his arm and said in a low voice:

"Do you want everyone to know about this, then tie me up and burn me like a monster? Or sink me into a pond?"

"Do not want to."

"If you don't want to, then don't be sarcastic. I promise to give you an explanation, but not now. So, Prince Zhou, can you hurry up and take action?"

Si Yao looked impatient, she had been out for long enough, she would quickly finish these things and return to Sijia Village, and go into the mountains to collect spiritual energy, nothing was more important than being alive!

"Well, you better remember this!"

Zhou Yu shook off his arm and left with a sullen face. Si Yao's brows showed a sense of irritability. She had never been able to tolerate any idle talk, but now, she had been irritated by someone and was filled with anger.

Then he found a suitable place, leaned against the tree trunk, closed his eyes, and forced himself to suppress the depression in his heart.

Zhou Yu walked and recalled, wondering whether he noticed that Yaoyao was different when he first met her in Sijia Village.

At that time, there was a sense of alienation in her words, and he thought it was because of the change in status. He thought that Yaoyao might be uncomfortable. The proud daughter of heaven who was admired by everyone suddenly became a country girl, and her words and actions were no longer confident, so her attitude was a little reluctant.

Looking back now, I'm afraid she must have met with an accident by then!

In order to confirm what he was thinking, he directly said:

"Let Si Yang come over."

"Yes."

Ling Feng was also sent away by him. Under a thick tree, Zhou Yu clenched his fists with a complicated expression on his face, as if he was nervous and expecting something.

"You're looking for me?"

Si Yang came over quickly. Seeing the confusion on his face, Zhou Yu spoke very seriously:

"What I am going to say next is extraordinary. I want you to promise not to let anyone else know!"

Si Yang was stunned for a moment, then quickly said:

"I will obey military orders!"

Zhou Yu's eyes were heavy and his tone was slightly cold:

"You know, Yaoyao was once the legitimate daughter of our Duke's Mansion. This prince's legitimate sister has been knowledgeable and extraordinary since she was young. She has made a lot of efforts to have such skills. If your family underestimates her..."

"No! Not only does no one in our family look down on Yaoyao, but even the people in the entire Sijia Village think highly of her. On the second day after she came back, she went up the mountain to hunt a wild boar, brought it back personally and sold it to the villagers at a low price. This move made people feel good about her..."

Si Yang recounted Si Yao's heroic deeds in detail, but Zhou Yu was not calm at all. His sister, a delicate and weak girl who had been brought up in seclusion in the boudoir, turned out to be so strong the second day after returning to the countryside?

Hunting wild boars and carrying them back personally?

Build a house for them?

Send his brother to school?

……

After hearing what happened, Zhou Yu could only come to one conclusion, that is, something had happened to his sister in the Duke's Mansion!

What he needs to do now is to return home as soon as possible, and then secretly investigate everyone in the mansion. By then, he can seek help from famous people in the world to return his sister intact!

As for the spirit that occupied Yaoyao's body, let her go for the sake of saving people. After all, cultivation is not easy. I just don't know what species she is...

After an incense stick of time, Zhou Yu raised his hand and gave orders. Everyone in the team had a stern look on their face and showed a courage to face death. A few hundred people acted like thousands of people.

Finally, we came out of the dense forest, and a smell of dry dust blew in our faces. On the other side of the mountain was the territory of the Western Rong people. It was dusk at this time, and the land looked particularly desolate in the afterglow of the setting sun.

In a vast wilderness, a few sparse dry grasses swayed in the wind. The mountains in the distance had no green embellishments at this time, only bare loess and rocks.

Occasionally, a cold wind blew, rolling up gusts of yellow soil, forming yellow whirlwinds that rampaged across this desolate land. The sky was also gray, as if covered by a thick layer of dust, without a trace of light.

Only the occasional cries of wild birds broke the silence, adding a bit of desolation and loneliness.

"No wonder the Western Rong barbarians come to rob again and again. What good birds can be raised in such a haunted place?"

It was also the first time that Gou Huan had seen such a barren place, and he started to ridicule it.

"In recent years, the Xirong have become even more aggressive, even to the point of openly robbing and killing. If we don't deter them, it will only lead to disaster..."

Zhou Yu spoke softly. From his father's letter, he had figured out the attitude of the court. This feeling of powerlessness made him lose some of his spirit.

"Then fight, why don't you just fight them!"

Gou Huan spoke frankly. Anyone who dared to covet his things would be punished by death!

"Be careful with your words! Whether to fight or not is entirely up to your majesty!"

Zhou Yu reminded with a serious expression and glanced at Si Yao who had remained silent the whole time.

"Ling Feng, arrange for someone to go and investigate, observe the wind direction, and cross the mountain at night!"

"Yes!"

"Si Yang, follow me closely and obey my orders!"

"Yes!"

……

Si Yao was standing by and watching Zhou Yu, who had a majestic look on his face and was commanding his men. A hint of admiration flashed in her eyes. He was indeed the heir taught by the Duke of Zhenguo. He was brave, resourceful and decisive.

"Don't move around, wait here."

Zhou Yu turned his head and looked at Si Yao. Both publicly and privately, he couldn't drag these two people down.

"Are you sure you don't need our help?"

Gou Huan was eager to try beside him, he wanted to have a big fight.

"Find out the situation first, and for now, the two of you stay put."

Unless they are unlucky and run into a dead end!

All the light in the sky dimmed, night slowly rose, and the old soldier who went out to investigate soon returned with news.

"Sir, the herd of cattle and sheep they stole is at the foot of the mountain. There are three tents nearby, and I can hear faint voices."

Zhou Yu sneered when he heard this:

"The barbarians knew we couldn't get through, so they didn't set up defenses. Pass the order down, and take action at midnight!"
