Chapter 152
Five copper coins are hung on the pine tree, emitting starlight. The five copper coins must refer to "five coins". The copper coins hanging on the pine tree itself symbolize wealth, shining and abundant wealth.
The entire painting is set on the wall of a lake, with water surrounding the courtyard. The character "水" (water) can be used as a radical, and the character "星" (star) can be used as the heart, together forming the character "沁".
The overall meaning is that we will always be a family, and Song Ting and Wu Qian are all Bian Qin's wealth.
Aren’t grandpa and five cents her wealth? If she uses them to exchange for more wealth, wouldn’t the sky be full of stars?
I wonder what her deceased grandmother would feel when she saw this painting again?
"Hey, are you daydreaming again?" Shi Qixuan patted her. "Have you figured it out?"
"The character for 'woman', on a tree trunk, takes the stem and puts it together to form 'rape', which suggests the identity of the person who carved the character, a spy.
The character "kill" is missing that part, so the upper part becomes "people". "People" refers to us, so the meaning is clear: the spies killed us."
"What? I'm getting even more confused." Zhang Hui was completely bewildered. He understood that spies were killing us, but... damn, he still didn't understand.
"Bian Qin knew there was a spy among his team, and he used the spy to kill us. It doesn't matter if we both lose or one side wins.
All of this would contribute to the secondary mutation of the tree, and she only needed to wait for the exit to open after the mutation was successful so that she could escape smoothly.
As for us, if we die here, everything that happened here will be buried with us, and she can say whatever she wants outside.
If we manage to escape, there won't be many of us left, and we won't be able to accomplish anything. And she can easily blame it on those spies. If you don't agree, where's the evidence?
"How can we, a small group of us, outsmart her bunch of crazy fans just by yelling? Besides, by the time we get out, she'll have already taken the lead and it will be too late to do anything."
"Damn, can't you cure her?"
"Where's the evidence? I can prosecute her as long as I have evidence."
“…”
"Bian Qin won't leave any evidence behind easily." Qian Zexi looked helpless. If he had done that back then, he would have dealt with her.
"What we're trying to do now is figure out how to break her trap. Those spies must have thought that by killing us, they could open the exit."
"Oh, what should we do?" Zhang Hui asked mechanically. He was a little unable to keep up with everyone's pace.
Sheng Yulan rolled her eyes at him and said, "Since we can't separate, let's just keep them tied together. At worst, we can just fight her out and see who can outlast the other!"
We're both large groups, so it doesn't necessarily mean she's prepared more supplies than we do. Maybe she didn't leave any for the spies at all," Sheng Yulan pondered sinisterly.
"Okay," Yun Xiang nodded. She already had some ideas for supplies and wasn't worried about running out.
Yun Xiang took out the modified old map and pointed at a few locations. "Uncle Jersey, what kind of person is Bian Qin?"
"Selfish, greedy, hypocritical, cruel..."
"..." She was wrong. Yun Xiang felt a headache coming on. "Weakness, what is her weakness?"
"Weakness..." Qian Zexi was suddenly speechless. Several of them flashed through his mind. They seemed to be weaknesses, but in fact, they were useless to her.
The only person who could make her lose control temporarily was him. But no matter what the situation, she would never use him.
"He's stubborn and has no patience for certain things." Sheng Yulan looked at Yun Xiang, "Is this okay?"
"Okay. I've researched the location that's been blocking us these past few days." Yun Xiang circled it on the map and added a few numbers, "This is the time it took.
The reason why Bian Qin knew our location was that there must be someone among them who had the ability to communicate with plants.
He definitely can't find out about the Vientiane Tree territory. It takes us twenty minutes to leave the territory, plus the time before we meet... She should be active in this area."
Yun Xiang circled a rough area on the map and said, "We leave the territory and split into three teams, taking these three routes.
Then we will go to this location and merge into one team. We will decide which route to take temporarily.
Next to it is the place where we picked fruits before. It is relatively safe and we will definitely be able to meet up with him before Bian Qin intercepts us.
This method is carried out in conjunction with Teacher Sheng's bundling method."
"Is it too much trouble?"
"It's a bit of a hassle, but it can put psychological pressure on Bian Qin and those spies. The purpose is to make them anxious.
The more urgent the situation, the smaller the range of options. We can then predict their next move and take precautions, or even fight back head-on.”
"Awesome!" Zhang Hui wanted to give a thumbs up to Chao Yun the previous moment, but questioned the next moment, "Will there be any psychological pressure? These two methods seem to have no difference? Ouch!" Can't we even tell the truth these days?
"Shut up!" Sheng Yulan withdrew her hand. She really couldn't bear it anymore.
“There is a difference. We separate and then merge. Whether we succeed or fail, the initiative is clearly ours.
Teacher Sheng's binding method will make her mistakenly think it's hers. In fact, this is just part of our plan, and we still have the initiative."
“…”
"If they miss a few times in a row, they get anxious, and then when they find they're being led by the nose by us, they get angry and anxious.
What will happen if the progress of plant mutation is delayed? I don’t believe she can tolerate it! "
"..." Are the girls nowadays so amazing? Zhang Hui suddenly felt old.
Qian Zexi feels like the new generation is pushing the old generation forward.
"Uncle Jersey, have your people keep a close eye on Bian Qin. If she or her subordinates deliberately speak loudly, or if they arrange for someone to pretend to be careless,
Tell the spy how to do special actions such as... and notify him promptly."
Yun Xiang was about to arrange the next step when she suddenly noticed Qian Zexi looking at her fiercely. She was stunned at first, but then she understood. "Since they can receive the message, your people will naturally not be exposed."
"oh?"
“Every time he was in danger, Bian Qin lost his guards, including the beastmen. With so many dead, there must be spies.
Your people are safe and sound now, so they must have climbed into the Imperial Guard. I'm guessing there's more than one." Yun Xiang suddenly grinned. "Actually, we could consider assassinating them."
"..." Youyou has become bad! She is becoming more and more like your grandfather. Qian Zexi felt a surge of emotion in his heart. He was just as smart and cunning, just as kind and decisive.
"Come, let's choose the place where these people will ambush." Yun wanted to straighten out the map and invite everyone to discuss it together.
"This dense forest is the right place."
"Why?"
“It’s the only way we can get water.”
"What do you want to do?"
"Can you beat them? They are experienced in battles, and you...?" It's not that Sheng Yulan looks down on her own people, they are indeed weaker.
"Then avoid it. Instead of fetching water every other day, fetch it for two consecutive days, and then rest for two days.
Adjust according to the situation. If it is really unavoidable, then..." Yun Xiang paused deliberately, "They won't do it head-on.
After all, he is a spy, how could he possibly leave any evidence for Bian Qin to use against him?"
"Then how did they ambush us?"
"Mutated beast!"
"Isn't it uncontrollable?"
"If it's not possible alive, then what about the dead?"
