Chapter 412 [The Couple Who Played Like Pigs and Eated Tigers]

Liao Ji looked at the stick figures on the ground and said, "And you're really smart to come up with the idea of ​​drawing. This way, you don't have to cooperate with them in juggling!"

When Panda heard Master Liao's praise, he proudly puffed out his hairy chest.

At this time, Master Mo asked someone to bring small stools for the abducted children to sit on.

To train these children, the first thing to do is to win their hearts.

Master Mo gave each child a piece of candy and said, "Maybe you don't know what we do yet. We are actually animal trainers. We can train animals to perform with us."

"Would you like to see an animal show?"

He asked this question out loud, and although the children below did not dare to answer, their eyes were full of anticipation.

Master Liao, who was standing nearby, pretended to be excited and said, "I want to see it!"

Master Mo didn't expect that this little fool could still support him, so he relaxed his vigilance against Master Liao.

"Okay, then our circus troupe will give you a wonderful animal taming show!"

The camp where the eldest prince is located is located in the northeast of Anemone City, between Anemone City and the eldest prince's Manxing City.

Xu Laoqi left the camp and rode his horse all the way to the main road. He was at a loss as to which city to go to in the north or south direction.

The camp is further away from Manxing City, but now a fight could break out in Anemone City at any moment.

There were groups of people walking on the official road, all of them coming from the direction of Haikui City and fleeing to Manxing City.

Just then, a female voice caught his attention.

Xu Laoqi saw a girl with a maid's bun holding three scrolls, asking the refugees passing by one by one if they wanted to buy any paintings.

Next to the girl, a handsome young man was sitting in a wooden wheelchair, looking very sick.

There was a cart parked behind the two men, with the reins still loose on the front of the cart.

These two people are Jiang Lili and Xin Che who have disguised themselves.

Based on the location of the eldest prince's camp provided by Master Liao, the two calculated that Xu Laoqi would take this route and had been waiting here for a long time.

Jiang Lili performed immersively, shouting enthusiastically: "Brother and Auntie, do you want to buy paintings? No money, just give me some food!"

At that time, those who fled were all from the lower classes with poor families. Who could afford to buy paintings? They were just too full to do anything!

The people who were asked all shook their heads and refused.

"No, no! I don't want it even if you give it to me for free!"

"Girl, let me tell you, even if you ask here all day and all night, no one will buy your paintings!"

…

Xu Laoqi rode his horse leisurely, secretly keeping an eye on the master and servant.

The maid-dressed girl, frustrated after being rejected time and time again, walked over to the man in the wheelchair and said, "Sir, what should we do? Paintings are worthless now, and we're going to starve."

The young man sitting in the wheelchair forced a reassuring smile on his face: "It's okay, Xiaoli, if big brother finds out I'm lost, he will definitely send someone to look for me."

The girl immediately showed a distressed expression when she heard this: "Sir, the eldest master clearly wants to abandon you! We have to find a way out on our own!"

The young man in the wheelchair had a helpless and sad expression. He took the scroll from the maid's hand, looked up and lamented, "I never thought that I'd learned painting since I was a child and spent ten thousand taels of silver on my master to buy painting materials, but now my paintings are worthless."

Jiang Lili sat on the cart behind the two men and angrily hammered the cart: "Why are we so unlucky? The donkey pulling the cart got scared and ran away. Otherwise, I could have exchanged it for money."

Seeing Xin Che really pretending to be a sad young man by looking up at the sky at a 45-degree angle as she had taught him, she was almost unable to hold back her laughter and could only pound the cart to distract him.

Xu Laoqi observed the two men for a long time, and after hearing their conversation, he figured out the whole story. The man in the wheelchair was the second son of a wealthy family. His brother thought he was a burden, so he abandoned him and his maid and fled on his own. The donkey that was pulling the two men also ran away.

Xu Laoqi looked at the scroll that the young man had spread out. Even though he didn't know much about the subject, he could tell that the painting was of very high quality. The bird in the painting looked like it was about to fly out of the picture.

He was delighted. He had been worried about running around to find a painter, but now he was really sleepy and someone handed him a pillow!

Moreover, from what the maid said about selling paintings, the two of them only needed someone to give them food to sell paintings. In that case, they wouldn't have to spend money to invite them. They could just take them to the camp and provide food and accommodation. Wouldn't they be grateful?

What's more, this maid is quite pretty, while this young man is lame and powerless. Won't they take advantage of him?

Xu Laoqi showed a greedy and obscene smile, what a bargain!

Although it was too much of a coincidence that they happened to meet someone selling paintings as soon as they got on the official road, a normal person would never have thought that they were tricked by a panda and a two-and-a-half-year-old child.

Xu Laoqi rode his horse up to Jiang Lili and Xin Che and said, "Our boss is in urgent need of a painting instructor. I can provide food and lodging for you two. Would you be willing to do that?"

Even if they are unwilling, it would be fine to just tie up the master and servant and take them to the camp.

Xin Che had already noticed Xu Laoqi's presence and reminded Jiang Lili. Now the two of them tacitly showed expressions of surprise.

Jiang Lili blinked her innocent eyes: "Brother, you are really not lying to us, right?"

Xu Laoqi looked at the maid, who looked innocent and inexperienced, and gave a hypocritical smile: "Why would I want to deceive you? You have no money, what is there for me to deceive you?"

"If I wanted to harm you, I could just find someone to kidnap you. The government won't intervene now that we're at war."

Jiang Lili's eyes widened when she heard this, and she nodded foolishly, as if she agreed with Xu Laoqi's words: "Yeah, you're right!"

Xin Che saw Jiang Lili, the scheming little fox, pretending to be stupid in a proper manner, and then caught sight of Xu Laoqi opposite him with a smug look on his face, and tried his best to suppress the urge to curl up the corners of his mouth.

He looked up at Xu Laoqi with a puzzled look on his face, "I wonder where this big brother's boss is now, how are we going to get there?"

Xu Laoqi pointed at the horse under him and said, "Don't you have a cart? I'll pull you over."

"As for where our boss lives..."

Xu Laoqi showed the badge on his waist that allowed him to enter and exit the First Prince's camp, and said with a smug look on his face, "I'm the First Prince's man. Now you can trust me, right?"

He was not afraid that these two people were spies sent by the second princess or the third prince. On this official road, several refugees who stopped by the roadside to rest were the eldest prince's spies.

Once we enter the eldest prince's camp, it will be impossible to escape.

“Oh my god…”

Jiang Lili's eyes widened when she heard what Xu Laoqi said.

She stammered, pointing at the badge, covering her mouth in surprise, looking like she had never seen the world before. She excitedly nudged Xin Che, "Sir, it's the eldest prince's man!"
