Wanwan is not Wanwan: Who will spoil you after you are reborn?
Chapter 544 Looking for the Woman in Red
Above Dongjiling.
Shen Wanwan looked down and suddenly said, "Do you feel like something's wrong down there?"
The forests in Dongjiling are dense, and you can't see what's going on in the forest from high above, but occasionally there are places with larger gaps where you can vaguely see the figures of people below.
She had just learned that she had left the ancient desert and the joy she felt had not yet worn off when she suddenly discovered something strange about Dongjiling and her heart sank instantly.
The others also discovered that there were people moving in the forest, and there seemed to be quite a few of them.
"Those people look like Japanese spies from Xiaoying Village. It seems Feiying failed to successfully return to get reinforcements."
As Ye Tianlan spoke, he glanced at Gu Beichen and said, "Your people don't seem to be very strong."
Gu Beichen pursed his lips tightly and said nothing.
Shen Wanwan had already told him everything that happened during their journey from Yong'an City to Dongjiling, including arranging Feiying to go back with people to eliminate the spies in Xiaoying Village, and arranging Feiyue to drug the spies inside.
Gu Beichen was very clear about the abilities of his men. Feiying was not the strongest, and his Qinggong was not the best, but he was good at lurking and gathering information, and his ability to conceal his whereabouts was better than anyone else.
Without being dragged down, he would not be able to escape and go back for help. Either there were more powerful people hiding in Xiaoying Village, or something else happened later that tied him up.
Xie Moxuan and Gu Beichen had the same opinion.
They know very well the strength of the people under their command.
It’s a pity that Canglang was seriously injured, otherwise, it would be the best arrangement for him to go back and bring people to encircle Xiaoying Village.
"Feiyue's plan to sneak into the village and drug people failed!"
It’s not that he doesn’t trust Feiyue, but the village is hiding hundreds of Japanese spies, and their vigilance cannot be underestimated.
Only if she was discovered sneaking into the village to plant drugs and then escaped from the village and hid in Dongjiling, could it explain why those people surrounded and searched the mountain.
Shen Wanwan questioned, "But we've been trapped in the ancient desert for several days. Even if Feiying couldn't successfully return to Yong'an City to call for reinforcements, Xuan Bin should have brought people here long ago, but we didn't see any soldiers anywhere."
When she went to the Princess's Mansion in person, she clearly told Xuan Bin that her purpose of leaving the city was to go to Dongjiling to rescue people.
Normally, as soon as they left the city, Hyun Bin should have started arranging people to follow them.
Even if he didn't arrange for anyone to follow up that day, he should have taken action after so many days had passed and no information had been reported back.
But why do we see people dressed as ordinary villagers searching the mountain instead of soldiers and officers from the Nan Yao Kingdom?
Neither Gu Beichen nor Xie Moxuan responded.
What Shen Wanwan said was also what they wanted to know.
The little Candle Dragon muttered, "This is all just speculation. We can find out the true situation by just asking anyone after we get down there."
Finally, the group landed in an open area on the top of Dongjiling Mountain. After landing, they quickly left the place and entered the dense forest.
The four of them knew very well that when they were high in the air, they could see the situation in the forest through the gaps between the trees, and the people below could naturally see them coming down from the air.
For safety reasons, they cannot rest where they are, but should at least go to a more remote place.
The four people and the dragon had not walked far when the setting sun was slowly setting in the sky.
The light in the forest grew dimmer.
Ye Tianlan was walking at the front of the team and suddenly stopped, "Someone is coming!"
He looked at Shen Wanwan, who immediately understood what he meant, and the four of them and the dragon entered the space in an instant.
A moment later, footsteps were heard hurriedly approaching.
"Strange, there was clearly a stranger's scent just now, how come it's gone all of a sudden?"
A man walked out of the twilight. It was the black-robed man who was previously called the Protector. He looked around and did not see what he had hoped.
There was clearly the scent of strangers in the air. If I was not mistaken, there should be four or five of them.
The man in black robe frowned. It seemed that the people below were not lying. Someone really flew into the forest from the sky.
He originally planned to go straight back to Xiaoying Village and report what his men had seen to the Imperial Master, but after thinking about it, he decided to arrange for others to go back and report the situation, while he himself would go straight to the top of the mountain.
If someone really flew with a sword, they would definitely choose to land in an open place. There are only two flat places in Dongjiling.
One is at the top of the mountain, and the other is where the Xie family’s ancestral tomb is located halfway up the mountain.
Instead of going to the cemetery, he went straight to the top of the mountain.
But when he finally reached the top of the mountain, he didn't see what he wanted to see.
However, he sensed the lingering breath in the air, and followed the faint breath all the way to chase it, but unexpectedly, he was still one step too late.
The man in black robe looked in a certain direction and fell into deep thought.
Not long after, a chaotic sound of hurried footsteps was heard, "Sir, we have found the trace of the woman in red."
The black-robed man immediately looked stern, "Where is the person? Take me there!"
The man in black robe didn't know that their conversation had all fallen into Shen Wanwan's ears.
Soon, the forest returned to peace again.
Shen Wanwan and Ye Tianlan appeared in the forest again, quickly chasing in a certain direction.
Soon, the two got the answers they wanted and returned to the space again.
"Their clothing is no different from that of ordinary villagers, but every one of them is holding a knife or sword. They are undoubtedly spies from Japan lurking in Nanyao."
Shen Wanwan expressed her guess, "They are indeed searching the mountain. If I'm not mistaken, the woman in red they're talking about is Feiyue."
Ye Tianlan spoke slowly: "When we were high in the sky just now, did you notice that in addition to the Xie family's ancestral tomb, the small village at the foot of the mountain seemed to be shrouded in black smoke."
Although it was very faint, he still noticed it.
Shen Wanwan was surprised. "Brother Emperor, are you saying that Xiaoying Village is also likely to be set up with a formation?"
"I don't know." Ye Tianlan answered truthfully.
Gu Beichen questioned, "But Mo Xuan and I have been into the village before and didn't find any formations, unless..."
Unless the formation only appeared recently.
Little Candle Dragon interrupted, "I think it would be better for us to fill our stomachs first before going out to investigate."
After a whole day of collecting the corpses of countless sand beasts, they were forced to leave the desert without having time to rest or even eat a bite of food.
It's really hard to understand, aren't they tired?
Now that we've landed, and since there's something going on at the foot of the mountain, shouldn't we fill our stomachs quickly so we can get things done?
The four people looked at Xiao Zhulong at the same time.
"Why are you all looking at me like that? Am I wrong?"
"Yes, you are absolutely right!"
Shen Wanwan agreed, "We really should fill our stomachs first, otherwise where will we get the energy to do this?"
I was so anxious that I was confused.
After she was trapped in the desert, Wen Ning was unable to enter the space. Now that she has come out of the desert, she can enter the space at any time as long as Wan Ning is convenient.
Since we are waiting anyway, why not eat and drink enough first?
The group went straight into the hall and started to eat.
At this time, outside the space.
A figure emerged from the darkness and walked to the location where Shen Wanwan and the others entered the space.
Feiyue was very confused.
She noticed some movement here and rushed over as fast as she could.
There was clearly a familiar scent of the owner in the air, but there was no one in sight.
Could it be that I was a step too late and the master just left?
Feiyue stood there, pondered for a moment, and looked in the direction of the Xie family's ancestral tomb. Did they go there?
However, someone had set up a formation at the Xie family's ancestral tomb, and she didn't understand the formation. If she walked over rashly, she would only be trapped in the formation.
Feiyue murmured: "Master, where are you?"
Shen Wanwan and others were having dinner when they suddenly heard Feiyue's voice, but the voice was too soft to be heard clearly.
When she pricked up her ears and listened carefully, there was no sound.
Could it be that he was hallucinating?
Gu Beichen noticed her strangeness, "What's wrong?"
Shen Wanwan shook her head. "It's nothing. Let's eat quickly. Xiao Zhulong is right. Only when we are well fed and well-drinking can we have the strength to go out and face the enemy."
Having said that, she still pricked up her ears to listen to the movements outside the space.
Outside the space, Feiyue pondered for a moment and felt that staying here was not a solution.
He looked towards the direction of the Xie family's ancestral tomb again.
Maybe the master really went that way.
He gritted his teeth and walked over there.
However, he stepped on something and stumbled, almost falling down.
"damn it!"
