“I understand, I understand…”
The young officer was so frightened that he could only nod his head desperately.
Most generals in the army have expressions written all over their faces. People like Sheng Yichen, whose emotions are impossible to read, are even more frightening.
"I think you have guessed that what I just gave you was poison. You have no room for bargaining. You have to do whatever I tell you to do and say whatever I tell you to say. Do you understand?"
“I understand, I understand…”
"Then let me ask you, which part of the camp is most suitable for Tibetans? Or which part is the quietest and least likely to be disturbed?"
Sheng Yichen thought that since this junior military officer was not of high rank, it was unlikely that he would know the exact location of the puppet master.
But people who practice this kind of evil arts are generally loners and like to live in seclusion where they are not easily disturbed. This may not be a clue.
"Not easily disturbed?"
The young officer was confused.
In the military, families usually live together, so there aren't many places where you won't be disturbed. He thought for a long time before he said uncertainly:
"The Yongping Army camp was under strict security a few days ago, so we can only move around in a few nearby courtyards. However, the West Camp was always very noisy in the past, but it has been eerily quiet these days."
"My guess is that the six or so people in the West Camp are probably no longer in the camp. If you want to find a place where you won't be disturbed, you should go to the West Camp."
"Has anyone with strange behavior entered the East First Courtyard recently? There are about a hundred zombies standing in that fake house. It's impossible that they appeared out of thin air, right?"
Ordinary soldiers could only share tents, but officers with high qualifications could use wooden fences to enclose several tents and enjoy their own independent "yards".
Perhaps the behavior of these people just now created a psychological shadow on the fake King Qin, so they were arranged in the third courtyard of the east, which was separated from the fake King Qin's residence by a courtyard.
"Hey! Don't tell me! Those 'people' really appeared out of thin air!"
The young officer felt his scalp tingling at the thought of this. His mission was just to help the Xianyuan Sect and the Yongping Army pass on the message.
Suddenly one day, I saw about a hundred people standing neatly in the tent.
From morning to night, without eating, drinking or sleeping, he is really like a living dead!
Sheng Yichen knew that this man should know all this, and he skillfully pulled out the dart that was embedded in his flesh.
In order to prevent this man from bleeding too much and being seen by people outside, someone kindly sprinkled some golden sore medicine on his wound.
"Okay, it's none of your business. Go get me some cooking ingredients. I'm hungry, so I'll make myself some food."
There is still a tough battle to fight in the evening. Why not take advantage of the time now to make a delicious meal for Xiao Xier to replenish her energy.
"Third brother, don't do it yourself. Xiao Cheng and I both have dry food with us." Sheng Nanxi blinked and hinted crazily.
Sheng Yichen raised his chin and did not accept the hint.
"Our little Xi'er is still growing, how can she eat dry food? Don't worry, Third Brother has just memorized those two recipes. I can make you a meal in minutes!"
Somehow, seeing his confident look, Sheng Nanxi couldn't help but shudder.
Gu Yuancheng found out that the little girl in his arms was abnormal, and he advised:
"Third brother, let's just forget about it. It's okay to just eat it together."
It would have been better if he didn't say anything. Once he said it, Sheng Yichen became even more excited.
"What does it matter? My little sister deserves the best treatment all the time!"
He turned around and urged the young soldier who was watching dumbfoundedly:
"What are you still standing there for? Hurry up and get the things over here!"
"yes……"
"Think of something to say before you go. Otherwise, the person you're meeting might tell you off."
"yes……"
Xiaojun dared not to hesitate. He hurriedly took another piece of paper from his arms, wrote a new version of the "surveillance record" on it and showed it to Sheng Yichen. He waited for the other party to read it and nodded before leaving.
When Sheng Yichen turned around, he met the suspicious and frightened eyes of the two little kids.
"Hmph! Just wait and see! The food I cook will be delicious and both of you will eat it in silence!"
"Okay, I think the layout of this tent is pretty good. Now there is still some time before midnight, you can go in and rest for a while."
…
"By the end of the hour of Hai, Sheng Yichen will have completely lost consciousness and will answer any questions you ask."
At this time, in the next yard, the fake King Qin, who was wearing a bandage, had bloodshot eyes and said sinisterly.
The man in black standing behind him was a little worried, and said anxiously:
"Third Hall Master, I always feel that Sheng San is a bit weird. According to our plan, the young master originally arranged a group of people in front to intercept Sheng Yichen. It is impossible for these three people to come to us."
"And just now you asked him where the treasures were hidden, but he didn't answer a single word. This is the first time I've seen someone last a full quarter of an hour in the Bewilderment Array. This Sheng San is too weird."
After all, no matter how smart the two kids were, they couldn't be that powerful, so he subconsciously attributed the strange phenomenon just now to Sheng Yichen.
Hearing him say this, the fake King Qin's face became even gloomier.
"We have other cooperation with Prince Yongping, and the young master does not want to make things too awkward with them. I have previously told Captain Xu to act according to circumstances. If the timing is not right, just cancel the plan."
"I guess the Yongping Army was too cautious. Captain Xu was afraid of being exposed, so he didn't give them the drug."
"As for the mind-confusing array... it does have different effects on different people. They enter this array and inhale so much smoke. If they can't endure it for a few hours, they will completely lose consciousness."
"Go and notify our people and the Yongping Army outside to guard this place. In less than two hours, I will definitely be able to learn the specific location of those treasures from Sheng Yichen!"
He just pretended to be the King of Qin and told Sheng Yichen that he would save Sheng Tiance at night and then escape. In fact, it was just a cover.
Now the drug has not yet fully taken effect in Sheng Yichen's body, and they are afraid that he will find out and fight to the death with them, or even call the master behind them to come over.
They knew that the master who helped Sheng Yichen empty the palace was very powerful and they dared not offend him.
That's why they went to all the trouble to stage such a drama, hoping to directly control Sheng Yichen and get the specific location of the stolen vault from him.
The Third Hall Master of the Xianyuan Sect was the most proficient in all kinds of formations and arts, and had never failed in his many years of wandering around the world. Naturally, he didn't believe that these two kids would be an exception.
"The previous plan failed. After we learn the exact whereabouts of the treasures from Sheng Yichen, we will send people to move some of the treasures here."
"After things are done, we will tell Prince Yongping their specific location. By then, the treasures we get will still take the lead, and we will be able to report to the young master."
After all, space is beyond the cognition of these people. They still think that Sheng Yichen is working with some expert to hide the stolen things somewhere.
…
Over there, the Yongping Army soon received a message from the Xianyuan Sect.
The deputy commander who stayed in the camp knew that the prince had been preparing for this day for many days. He even issued a military warning to them before leaving, saying that anyone who dared to let Sheng Yichen go would be in danger of his life.
At this time, I heard from the Xianyuan Sect that they would be able to completely control Sheng Yichen after the medicine took effect in the evening.
The deputy commander knew the critical moment, and his heart was in his throat. He directly summoned the remaining 300,000-plus Yongping troops to surround all the courtyards in Dongying.
The young military officer named 굜武 just now is a bit smart.
I don't know what he said to the people outside. Soon he pushed a small wooden cart and brought several bags of food and pots, bowls, and utensils to the three brothers and sisters from the East Third Courtyard.
A quarter of an hour later...
Sheng Nanxi frowned slightly.
"Well... Third Brother, I think it's better for you to cook something simple for the first time. Don't make it so fancy."
"No, I just made three dishes for you. I think the rice looks good, so I want to make you some fried rice. You can eat it whenever you are hungry."
"Yes, and there are these dried rice grains that can be put into the pot and fried together."
Popcorn has existed since ancient times. People in Southern Qi called it "rice flower", which was a favorite snack for children.
Sheng Nanxi looked at those pots of "delicacies" that could not be said to be delicious, but only to be of low quality. She couldn't help but tremble her little pink lips.
"Third brother, it still counts..."
"It's okay. For Xiao Xi'er, I'll do anything for you..."
"Bang——"
Before he could finish his words, a huge explosion was heard from the fire!
Gu Yuancheng was the first to sense something was wrong. Before the explosion, he picked up the beggar chicken under the fire with his left hand, picked up the little girl beside him with his right hand, and ran away.
The Yongping Army guarding outside was already nervous, and they were even more shocked when they saw the huge black smoke rising from the East Third Courtyard after a loud noise.
"What's going on?! Someone ignited the gunpowder?!"
"Okay! The prince has long warned us to be careful of Sheng Yichen. I didn't expect that he would actually have a trick up his sleeve! All Yongping troops, listen up, follow me in and capture this thief alive!"
The three Yongping soldiers were filled with murderous intent, and rushed forward with the few weapons they had.
Then he went directly to face Sheng Yichen, who had just put out the fire and had a dark and gray face.
"Huh?! There are so many people here. Have you all not eaten yet?!"
The three Yongping troops who were almost caught: ??? !!!
"Haha... Is the miracle doctor cooking? We are passing by... haha... passing by..."
When the Yongping soldiers saw Sheng Yichen's silly expression, they no longer doubted him and ran away in a flash.
The little girl sat by the fire that Gu Yuancheng had rebuilt, gnawing on a chicken leg while keeping an eye on what was going on in the distance.
"The puppet master is in the West Fourth Courtyard."
That person somehow reduced his presence. Even though Sheng Nanxi had five sensitive senses, she didn't notice there was someone there from such a distance.
But Sheng Yichen's action just now obviously scared the man hiding in the dark and exposed his true colors.
Gu Yuancheng suddenly realized: "It turns out that Third Brother was deliberately making an explosion to lure the snake out of its hole!"
"Ah, this..." Sheng Yichen shook his head.
He is a man of the Sheng family who has been strong all his life! He can't say that he was really cooking for his little sister just now, and accidentally caused an explosion...
The wronged brother tried to change the topic:
"Oh, yes! It was my first time making it, and I didn't get the heat right. Wait a little longer, and I'm sure the next batch will be ready."
Sheng Nanxi screamed in horror: "Xiao Cheng! Quickly collect all his things!!!"
