Chapter 226 Chirping Knows the Way

Night fell, and all was quiet.

The temperature in the southwest is very high, and the plants here grow much more lushly than in the plains, appearing like menacing monsters standing and hiding in the darkness.

However, this is also an excellent hiding spot.

Yun Shuyue, dressed in night clothes, quietly jumped down from the tree. Her movements were fluid and graceful, showing her competence and agility.

Meanwhile, on the other side, a bulky and clumsy figure was also lurking, stealthily moving forward under the cover of darkness.

Then the two met in the darkness, the full moon being proof.

"sister?!"

"Chirp?!"

Yun Shuyue didn't care about anything else and grabbed Qiuqiu by the collar: "What are you doing out here so late at night instead of sleeping in your room?"

"You're not planning to climb all the way to the Nado River, are you?"

Even if you climb all the way up the pine tree until the skin is bald, you still won't be able to reach it.

My cousin has no idea how powerful Qiuqiu is. At her speed, she'll definitely be able to catch up and pick up the leftovers. The front yard is on fire, and she's rescuing people in the backyard.

She's amazing!

She glanced over with a questioning look, as if asking Yun Shuyue why she was there. The little dumpling's gaze was still quite intimidating, and Yun Shuyue, feeling guilty, put her down. "I just wanted to help."

Wait a minute, she's a highly skilled martial artist, what's wrong with her going to help?

On the contrary, it's inappropriate for ChiuChiu to appear here at this time!

Yun Shuyue tried to use her height to create a slight sense of intimidation and force the other party to turn back. However, she clearly underestimated Qiuqiu's brash nature. Not only was the other party not afraid, but it also took the opportunity to scramble out through the dog hole ahead.

"The Prince of Zhennan's mansion is known for its dog holes, isn't it? How come there are dog holes in Yuncheng as well as in the capital!"

If Gu Qinghuai were here, he would definitely have a lot in common with her, because he had also let Qiuqiu slip away through the dog hole before when he wasn't watching her closely enough.

Fortunately, there was an alleyway outside, and Yun Shuyue climbed over and captured her. In the darkness, the irritable older cousin held down her frail younger cousin, letting out a sinister laugh: "Let's see if you can still... ugh!"

"Shh!" Chiu Chiu covered Yun Shuyue's mouth, almost spitting out her saliva in her excitement, and pointed at the blue figure that flashed by in front of her, "Wood."

Yuanmu was wearing a tie-dye blue dress, an embroidered jacket, and a dignified silver headdress. Qiuqiu had noticed her earlier because of her striking outfit.

Yun Shuyue hugged Qiuqiu and hid around the corner. "Strange, where is she going so late?"

Chiu Chiu laboriously extended a finger, pointing in the direction the wishing tree had left, "Waaah!"

Follow them!

Yuanmu walked very fast, and if Yun Shuyue took Qiuqiu back first and then came back, she definitely wouldn't have enough time. She also had a lot of doubts about Yuanmu. After struggling with the decision, she still took Qiuqiu and followed him.

Taking me with you is the best decision you've ever made!

Yun Shuyue stumbled and almost fell. She glared at the chubby baby in her arms, "Don't say things like that at times like this next time."

"Huh?" Chuchu was stunned; she didn't say anything either!

Oh no, my sister's an idiot.

Yun Shuyue: Once we're safe, we must give her back a complete childhood!

Yuanmu emerged from the back door and walked expertly in one direction. She didn't hesitate for a moment, despite the numerous forks in the road. Yun Shuyue was certain that Yuanmu had come prepared!

"Chirp chirp, we're really surrounded by wolves this time."

Chiu Chiu: [Whose groom?]

Yun Shuyue: "Shut up!"

Chiu Chiu huffed angrily, "You... sister!"

She's not a good girl anymore; she swore, but she just didn't say anything.

Today I'm feeling so wronged because my sister accused me~

The two sisters began a cold war, but their determination to follow Yuanmu remained unwavering. They followed her through streets and alleys, covering a distance equivalent to most of Yuncheng. Just when they were beginning to suspect that Yuanmu had already discovered them and was simply playing with them, she finally stopped.

She stopped at the back door of a house, and the two of them hid a short distance away, peeking in. She waited for about fifteen minutes before the door opened from the inside.

The person who opened the door for her shocked the two of them.

It turned out that Ah Xia peeked out from inside the door and waved to Yuanmu.

Yuanmu turned around cautiously to make sure no one was there before following Axia inside.

Yun Shuyue emerged from the shadows and stamped her foot: "She really does have a close relationship with Na Duohe!"

Based on my judgment, they must have been a deeply passionate couple in their youth. Later, Naduohe betrayed their love and their people, stealing a precious treasure from their tribe. If nothing unexpected happens, A-Xia is their child!

Yun Shuyue really admired Qiuqiu. At her age, she was still babbling, while Qiuqiu could already weave such wonderful stories.

It's well-written, but a bit far-fetched.

"I think it was Naduohe who, greedy for power, stole the clan's most valuable treasure, and then the High Priest and his people chased him all the way here. Unfortunately, the thief was protected by the Shao family, and the Hundred Flowers Clan was slaughtered and had to go into hiding. Now that we've intervened, they've come back to kill us!"

Chiu Chiu silently watched her cousin, who was also making up a story. How could her cousin be so childish!

Neither sister would back down, so they decided to follow and find out what was going on.

But to her surprise, a sword was swung at her the moment she entered. Yun Shuyue nimbly retreated, narrowly dodging it.

"who?"

Thirteen looked at Qiuqiu with a cold face: "How did you end up here?"

Chiu Chiu's eyes darted around, and finally, with her eyes closed, she leaned against Yun Shuyue's neck.

【Ah! I'm so scared I fainted!】

Thirteen's lips twitched. If the timing weren't so bad, he would have liked to give this disobedient fat dumpling a good beating.

"Su Qiuqiu, do you think I'm stupid?"

Chiu Chiu was determined not to open her eyes and to continue playing dead.

Thirteen wasn't surprised by Yun Shuyue's arrival; Gao Wenyan had secretly told him before they set off that there was a chance Yun Shuyue would come along. But he truly hadn't expected her to bring Qiuqiu along on this adventure.

Yun Shuyue immediately stated her position: "Bringing her out was an accident, but I will definitely protect her."

Chuchu woke up from her zombie state, her eyes wide open, and nodded obediently. [Chuchu will protect you all too!]

The little girl's voice held a hint of guilt as she swore. After all, unexpected situations weren't something she could control, right?

According to the rules of fiction, something is bound to happen to her soon.

But in order not to be sent back and miss the necessary events, she can only pretend to be obedient for now.

Thirteen reluctantly left them behind, hoping that Chiu Chiu's good luck would bless them tonight.

“This house is strange, so be careful. We’ve already checked the front yard, and there’s nothing there. Now we’re going to the back yard, but there’s a strange plant there that will make you lose consciousness if you touch it. Some of us have already been affected.”

"You can still go back now."

Chiu Chiu was the first to shake her head: "Save Daddy!"

[Save Dad! Save Brother!]

She struggled out of Yun Shuyue's arms, crawled a couple of times on the ground, and turned to look at the two of them: "Let's go!"

Follow Chuchu! Chuchu knows the way!

Yun Shuyue & Shisan: "???"

How does she know the way?!
