Chapter 322: Conditions for Retreating (asking for monthly ticket)



When they arrived at the granary, Sang Que asked Xia Chan to guard the door while she went in alone.

He Buning wanted to follow, but Xia Chan put her hands on her hips to block the way, "You are not allowed to go in, humph!"

"Meow!" Xuanyu lay on Xiachan's shoulder and also called fiercely.

He Buning asked, "I can't go in either?"

Xia Chan nodded, "No!"

He Bu Ning's face fell, and Xiao Liu laughed secretly behind him. Only at this moment, he still looked a little like his former self.

Seeing the two Taoist priests behind him sticking their heads out curiously, He Bu Ning couldn't hold back and took Xiao Liu back to the opposite side of the granary and leaned against a wooden box.

"What are your plans next?" He Buning asked.

The correct content is in %六九% book'bar!

"Sang Mulan, come with me."

Sang Que briefly described the situation at that time, "Yu Da has been fighting with the champion ghost. He was injured but his life is not in danger. He is now recuperating in Jinzhou. And the champion ghost, by some strange coincidence, was controlled by a friend of mine. His name is Liu Tianyou. He lived in my yard for a while before, and now he is with Yu Da."

Sang Que knew that He Buning must have a lot of things to ask her, so she asked Qin Ze to take Xia Chan to find Qiao Ling, and she went with He Buning alone, without even Xiao Liu following them.

As for why she didn't die, there are many possibilities. After all, this is a world where ghosts are rampant, and it is not surprising that strange things happen.

It was Skinny Monkey, he was still alive, Sang Que saw him, but he didn't notice Sang Que walking by outside.

"Heishan Village is truly a Feng Shui treasure land."

He Buning was very surprised. He had never met Liu Tianyou, but because he was close to Xia Chan and Sang Que, he asked someone to investigate and found out that he was a scholar, about the same age as Sang Que, and both were from Heishan Village.

The two Taoist priests and the grain officer were still standing in front of the warehouse door. They were really curious about how Sang Que had carried back so much grain. Did he use some evil object or some special ghost?

Guards in armor patrolled the road from time to time. Every thirty meters on the road, there was a water tank with a rooster with a severed neck hanging on it, and the chicken's blood dripped into the water tank.

The owner of the coffin shop was tall and thin, with a hunched back, and was sweating profusely from his anxiety.

Speaking of evil objects that can hold things, there are such things in this world. For example, there was a ghost jar imprisoned in the Evil Ghost Department of Wangshan City. There were ghosts living in the jar, and it could hold more than a hundred people. However, after a long time, they would all turn into marinated meat.

Sang Que did not hide it, "They were trapped in the Ming Mansion with me back then. Maybe they had a chance encounter there and got the recipe for Ming's Jade Juice."

"The reason why the rebels in Qinzhou were able to conquer cities and territories this time was all thanks to the help of the Gu Masters and Ghost Poets in Yunzhou. The tribes in Yunzhou originally had an ancestral precept that no one could leave Yunzhou. They violated the ancestral precept this time because the Evil Suppression Division arrested the 'Gu Master' of Yunzhou, that 'Gu Master'!"

Sang Que took out the painting from the warehouse, drove away the zombies, and slowly carried the food and grass.

Walking along the streets of Dongyang County from the city gate, Sang Que discovered that the shops on both sides of the street were still open for business, but there were very few customers. Every household had a Bagua mirror hanging on its door with a yellow talisman pasted on it.

Just now outside, the two Taoist priests had learned about Sang Que's basic situation from Qin Ze and knew that she was the famous female night prostitute Sang Mulan in Wangshan City.

Sang Que was shocked. He Buning was not talking about an ordinary Gu Master, but the "Gu Master" in Jiuge.

Xia Chan and Xuan Yu stood on both sides of the warehouse door like left and right protectors.

Sang Que stayed in the warehouse for a full hour before leaving the ghost realm.

Sang Que did not give a direct answer, but asked instead, "When do you think this battle will be over?"

Twenty days later, the Jingzhou army will arrive.

Most of these things are special and precious, extremely difficult to control, and the price to pay when using them is also very high.

When the warehouse door was opened, everyone saw that it was full of grain bags. They were all shocked and wanted to find out how Sang Que did it. But before they could open their mouths, Sang Que shut them up with a "no comment".

As soon as Qiao Ling entered the city, she had someone take her to the place in the city where the wounded soldiers and civilians were treated. She continued to perform her duties as a doctor and also told Xia Chan to come over to help later.

Under the shed were He Baosheng, Qin Fangru, He Shouhui and He Shouan's family. He Baosheng was adding firewood to the big pot, He Shouan was marking the signs in everyone's hands, Qin Fangru and He Shouhui were holding big spoons and scooping a full bowl of porridge for each person.

Not far from the coffin shop, there is a two-story restaurant that is newer than the surrounding buildings. A string of red lanterns with "He's Jade Juice" written on them are hung at the door of the restaurant. There is also a silhouette painting on the bottom red lantern. It is a picture of two gentle-looking women holding hands and smiling at the world. They look very much like Ming Wanxi and Huilan.

He Buning originally wanted to ask Sang Que about their biological mother, but when Sang Que was transporting grain, He Buning thought a lot and still felt that it was better to keep it tacit and pretend to be completely ignorant as it is now. Once some things are exposed, the issue of stance will arise.

Why not let go of the worrying expression? Xiao Liu answered for him, "Based on previous experience, the Qianshou Army will definitely attack Dongyang County with all their strength before their food and grass are exhausted. If they take Dongyang County, they will be able to solve the food and grass problem and advance further. If they fail to take it, they will naturally retreat temporarily and wait for assistance from the rear."

Sang Que agreed with this point. After all, it was the place finally chosen by her biological mother. It must be more special than other places and more likely to produce talents.

But it was useless for them to be curious. After Sang Que went in, wisps of black mist overflowed from the warehouse door. In an instant, a ghost domain enveloped the entire warehouse.

He Buning personally poured tea for Sang Que, and the two sat face to face at the round table.

He Buning glanced at the side and said to Sang Que.

He Buning thought about it and revealed the news to Sang Que. He also wanted to know what choice Sang Que would make after knowing this.

"Where have you been all this time? Is Yu Da... still alive?"

"All the coffins and shrouds are really sold out. There is no chance to go out of town to find wood to make coffins. Can we come back another day?"

Although Qin Ze was happy that Dongyang County had food, he was also a little worried. He asked He Bu Ning, "Captain He, we have seized almost all the food reserves of the Qianshou Army. Will the Qianshou Army retreat or launch a large-scale attack on Dongyang County if they have no food?"

"The jade juice here is exactly the same as Ming's jade juice back then."

There was a shed at the entrance of the restaurant, and there was a long queue in front of it, with the elderly, the weak, women and children holding bowls.

A strange red line emerged from the darkness, forcing the two Taoist priests and the grain officer to retreat and closing the doors and windows of the warehouse.

He Bu Ning said, "No matter what, hold on for another twenty days."

There were also many free-range roosters on the street, searching for insects everywhere. Those who had black dogs at home would tie them up at the door. Not far away, Sangque saw a coffin shop. Many people lined up at the door to buy coffins and funeral supplies.

After that, there was no other sound in the ghost realm except the occasional cry of some infant spirits.

He Buning nodded, said nothing more, took Sang Que to the county government office, and found a quiet room where no one would disturb them.

"I only learned about this recently. I didn't receive any information about this operation in advance. It was arranged by... by the Prime Minister himself, who secretly sent two generals from Jingzhou and many experts to carry it out. Now the Gu Master has been taken to Shengjing and is under the personal supervision of the Prime Minister."

"The condition for the withdrawal of the troops and the truce of the Yunzhou tribes is to return the 'Gu Master'."

He Bu Ning paused and looked up at Sang Que.

"And, return the 'Five Spirit Saintess'."

See you tomorrow~      (End of this chapter)
