Chapter 225 Setting Off on a Night Exploration

With familiar faces around, the little one doesn't panic.

Suddenly, Chiu Chiu felt herself perking up again.

She not only had to rescue her father and brother, but also the innocent villagers of Baihua Village.

Yuanmu sat opposite the group, surrounded by people, but the feeling wasn't pleasant. The girl beside her leaned closer, "High Priestess, they..."

Yuanmu patted the girl's hand: "The goddess's servant is not a bad person."

Sure enough, the girl's wariness disappeared immediately upon hearing this, and she instead gave the group a sweet smile, revealing not only dimples but also cute little tiger teeth.

Chuchu happily wiggled her body in response. She still preferred a happy atmosphere.

All the bastards who don't make Chiu Chiu happy must be eliminated!

Gao Wenyan cleared his throat: "Tonight we're going to Naduhe's house. Priest Yuanmu, is there anything you'd like to say?"

Naduohe is a traitor to the Hundred Flowers Clan, and the people who know him best are his own clansmen.

Asking the wishing tree is definitely the right thing to do.

“You are a smart young man.” Yuanmu took off his black gauze gloves to show everyone his scarred hands. “Our Hundred Flowers Clan is skilled in raising Gu insects, and Naduohe stole the Mother Gu King.”

The mother Gu of the Hundred Flowers Clan can control other Gu Kings. Unlike other mother Gu, the mother Gu King is poisonous all over her body, and will be poisoned once touched.

"The Mother Gu King needs to devour a large number of Gu worms to survive. But raising Gu worms is not easy. That Duohe captured so many of our people to use them for his own purposes."

"You must be careful of a red worm, about the size of a fingernail. It turns black in the dark, so be extremely careful at night!"

Gao Wenyan nodded and looked at Thirteen: "You must be careful."

Thirteen raised an eyebrow: "Aren't you going?"

Gao Wenyan was surprised, his eyes wide as if he couldn't understand what Thirteen was saying. "A scholar is useless, what use would I be?" He waved his hand and smiled apologetically, "I won't go and cause you any trouble."

Thirteen and Gao Wenyan were old acquaintances. Thirteen grabbed him and grinned mischievously, "So, if others can't be in danger, then I can be, right? Brother Wenyan~"

Gao Wenyan blushed deeply, shoved Thirteen away, glanced hastily at Yun Shuyue, and then furtively pulled Thirteen aside to whisper in a corner, "How disgusting!"

Yun Shuyue asked curiously, nuzzling against Qiuqiu, "What do you think they're plotting?"

Chiu Chiu held Yun Shuyue's head and looked her up and down: "Silly."

My sister has such a big head, why doesn't she use it? Is it because she doesn't like it?

Oh, so it's because there isn't any!

Anyone with a little brainpower should know that Wen Yan's eyes are hiding a hint of shyness!

A domineering female general meets a shy young scholar!

She loves watching this kind of sweet unrequited love; she won't say it, she'll watch it secretly!

Yun Shuyue tapped Qiuqiu's forehead: "My beauty isn't just for decoration, it includes my head!"

Chiu Chiu's expression was indescribable. She finally understood why her older brother and cousin were such silly dogs!

Fine, I'll call her Silly Cat since she's somewhat pretty!

Hehe, big brother is a silly dog!

Wait... something's not right! Then she'd become the silly dog's sister!

No, no, she still wants to be the most beautiful woman in the world.

Gao Wenyan noticed Qiuqiu's melancholy look and immediately turned away guiltily, "What do you mean!"

Thirteen was speechless: "Shouldn't I be asking you that? Why are you thinking about love and romance at a time like this?"

Gao Wenyan's ears turned bright red. "Don't talk nonsense. Miss Yun saved my life, you're just being grateful."

"Then why don't you thank me?" Thirteen grinned mischievously. "Brother Wenyan, I saved your life too!"

"vomit!"

Thirteen:"……"

Gao Wenyan raised his hand to indicate, "It wasn't me."

He gestured downwards with his lips, and Chuchu had somehow wandered between them. It was unclear how much the little one had overheard. Even if a one-year-old knew someone was eyeing her cousin, it probably wouldn't matter, right...?

Qiuqiu looked at Gao Wenyan with pity: "Falling in love with my cousin is a death sentence for you!"

Women who belong on the battlefield will not be easily trapped by love.

It wasn't that Qiuqiu thought too highly of her cousin, but she had overheard her mother telling her aunt that her cousin had mistaken a deputy general who came to confess his love for someone who had come to issue a challenge, and had beaten the man half to death in front of the entire army.

Now that the deputy general's son is three months old, he still avoids my cousin when he sees her!

Brother Wenyan, you're so pitiful.

Upon hearing Qiuqiu's innermost thoughts, Thirteen clicked his tongue in amazement. Indeed, women are tigers, and love is poison.

He's willing to be the happy single dog that Chiu Chiu talks about!

but……

"Gao Wenyan, I support you! If you like something, just like it boldly!"

Gao Wenyan hated Thirteen to death. "Keep your voice down, don't let Miss Yun hear you."

"Don't let me hear anything!" Yun Shuyue sized up the three guilty-looking people. "Are you hiding something from me?"

Chiu Chiu nodded: "Yes."

Thirteen & Gao Wenyan: "???"

Is she stupid!

Yun Shuyue picked up Qiuqiu and praised her generously: "Our Qiuqiu is the best-behaved and never hides anything from her older sister!"

She glared at the two stinky men, then left with her sweet and soft best friend in her arms.

After this commotion, Yun Shuyue stopped mentioning going to the Naduo River. The two breathed a sigh of relief, having managed to persuade her in a different way.

Yun Shuyue absolutely cannot get into trouble here, or she'll be in big trouble!

Yuanmu silently watched the little tricks between the group, touched the scars on his hands, and hoped that these young people could bring hope to the Hundred Flowers Clan.

Ah-Xia: "High Priest, Nado River will surely be punished by the gods."

Yuanmu sneered: "When that time comes, I will definitely kill him with my own hands to pay tribute to my dead clansmen."

Ah-Xia nodded: "The High Priest will surely get his wish."

Yuanmu avoided Axia's eyes and stood up alone. "You can go with them tonight."

Thirteen had sharp ears and was watching the strange pair of large and small figures from a short distance. Should they send a little girl with them?

He wasn't actually babysitting other people's children.

The situation is uncertain; let's wait and see.

Na Duohe possessed the Mother Gu King, and the situation in Yuncheng was still unclear. Thirteen dared not bring out all the Shadow Guards, but only selected six people to accompany him. Including A-Xia, who insisted on going with him, there were a total of eight people.

Chiu Chiu complained indignantly: 【They didn't even take me!】

Yuanmu respectfully explained to Qiuqiu, "Axia has her own way of protecting herself, so she will definitely not be in danger. Your people can follow Axia. She can smell the Gu worms. Naduohe will definitely use the Gu worms to control your father and brother. You can let her go and scout ahead."

Chiu Chiu's eyes lit up; this is practically a human police dog!

She gave a thumbs up: "Great!"

When Xia was praised by the little goddess, her dark face flushed slightly. She hid behind the wishing tree and smiled at Qiuqiu, revealing her little tiger teeth. "I will definitely bring your father and brother back."

They will also bring back the fathers and brothers of other children in the clan!

Chuchu: Then call my sister Silly Cat!

Yun Shuyue: Who are you calling an idiot!

A domineering female general meets a cunning young scholar—I love that kind of story, hehehe~
