Chapter 398: The People's Happiness
From a distance, Su Ying saw the villagers waiting at the entrance of the village.
"Greetings to Her Majesty the Queen."
"No need to be so polite, everyone."
"Your Highness, you have been working so hard recently. We have prepared some wine and food to entertain you. Please don't despise us."
The village head invited Su Ying to his home and sat at a separate table in the main hall.
The table was filled with chicken, duck, fish and meat, which must have taken a lot of thought.
"Your Majesty, please take a seat. There is nothing good in our countryside, so please don't despise it."
Su Ying sat down on the stool, looked at the food and drinks on the table and said with a smile, "Thank you for your trouble."
No one present dared to eat at the same table with Su Ying, and Su Ying did not force them. She just asked them to eat on their own and said she did not need anyone to serve her.
The village head was afraid that Su Ying would feel uncomfortable, so he drove everyone out of the village.
After eating, the head of the village asked his daughter-in-law to take Su Ying to a clean room for Su Ying to rest at night.
"My lady, please stay here for one night. If you need anything, just let me know. I will get you some hot water for washing."
"Thank you."
After the aunt left, Su Ying returned to her chair and sat down. She was really tired these days, and she had to regulate her breathing and replenish her energy tonight.
The aunt brought up the hot water and then left.
After a simple wash, Su Ying sat on the bed, crossed her legs and began to regulate her breathing.
As the night deepened, it started raining outside again.
The only sound I could hear was "dripping" of raindrops hitting the roof.
The mountain breeze mixed with moisture blew into the house, bringing with it a...fishy and sweet smell.
Su Ying suddenly opened her eyes, there was a fishy smell!
Su Ying jumped off the bed and walked to the window in the faint moonlight.
Looking through the window, there was nothing but the sound of falling rain.
Su Ying picked up a small object from the house and threw it towards the gate.
With a light "click" sound, Su Ying clearly saw several figures flashing under the crack of the door.
Su Ying turned around and jumped out of the window, looking in the direction of other houses. Seeing that the doors were still locked, she silently approached the courtyard gate.
As soon as she hid her figure in the darkness, a dark shadow climbed over the courtyard wall.
The men in black would never have thought that Su Ying was hiding behind them.
The men in black quickly reached the room where Su Ying was. Just as they were about to pry open the door, Su Ying's cold voice cut through the rainy night, "You scumbags, your aunt is here."
The men in black were all startled and turned back vigilantly to see Su Ying standing outside the courtyard gate.
Their faces twisted and they rushed over with swords in hand.
Su Ying jumped out of the yard.
Seeing this, the man in black quickly followed out.
When Su Ying jumped out of the yard, she saw a dead dog lying on the ground. The dog's blood was washed all over the ground by the rain, and the blood mixed with the rain water formed a small stream on the muddy ground.
Su Ying dodged and hid in the bamboo forest nearby. Seeing this, the man in black quickly chased in.
But after entering the bamboo forest, they did not see Su Ying.
"I just saw him here, how come he's gone again?"
In the darkness, a hand suddenly fell on the shoulder of the man in black.
The man in black was startled and turned around to meet Su Ying's eyes that were as cold as ice.
The man in black felt a pain in the back of his neck. When he was about to attack, he saw Su Ying twist her neck. Suddenly, a sharp pain spread from her neck to every part of her body.
When the other men in black heard the noise, they all rushed over.
Su Ying was like a ghost in the night, shuttling back and forth among these people quickly, not even giving them a chance to attack, and she disappeared again.
Su Ying's figure suddenly flashed before their eyes, and in the blink of an eye she was standing a few meters away from them.
"Kill her!"
The men in black came to their senses and were about to rush forward when they saw Su Ying snap her fingers. All the men in black froze in place, but after a moment they fell to the ground and twitched in pain.
Su Ying watched them coldly as they came forward and removed their jaws one by one.
"Who's the boss? Put your hands up."
The men in black wailed in pain, but no one raised their hands.
Su Ying chuckled, and another snap of her fingers sounded. The men in black felt even more pain. The pain was as if someone was holding tens of thousands of silver needles and stabbing them in the festering wounds again and again, almost driving them crazy.
"I heard that the dead soldiers are the most stubborn. I want to see how stubborn you are."
After several finger snaps, the people on the ground became stiff like corpses. This kind of neuralgia was so severe that even the strongest painkillers were useless. She was really curious about how long these people could keep being stubborn.
Su Ying took out a timer from her body and just watched quietly.
She would not let them continue to feel pain, but would give them a break when they were about to reach their limit, and then continue.
After this happened several times, someone finally couldn't stand it anymore and raised his hand stiffly.
Su Ying walked up, grabbed the man, pulled him aside, repaired his broken jaw, and picked out the poison from his mouth.
"Who asked you to come?"
The black-clothed man's eyes were bloodshot, and he looked at Su Ying with fear, "I, we are from the Red Devil Sect, we are here to take your life for money."
Su Ying's dark eyes narrowed, "It's the Red Devil Sect again."
"Where is your leader?"
"No, I don't know. The leader's whereabouts are uncertain. Even if we receive a mission, it is sent by eagle."
"You haven't seen him?"
"No one has seen his true face. The leader has always been wearing a mask, and no one knows his true face."
"Then how do you usually contact him?"
"Send the letter via eagle. Once the task is completed, send the letter to the leader via eagle."
"Where's the eagle?"
The man in black looked at Su Ying and didn't understand what Su Ying wanted the eagle to do. Could he follow the eagle to find the leader?
He took out a whistle and blew it, and soon an eagle flew in the sky.
Su Ying picked up a tree root on the ground and stretched it out, asking the man in black to blow the whistle again.
The eagle swooped over and landed steadily on the tree trunk in Su Ying's hand.
At first glance, the eagle appears to be half the height of a man.
Su Ying grabbed the eagle and kicked the man in black to the ground, then released the eagle into the space.
The matter of the Red Devil Faction will be dealt with after she finishes dealing with the Jingzhou Dam issue.
Su Ying took out a rope from the space and tied up all the men in black, waiting for the secret guards to arrive and deal with them.
“Oh oh oh”
The sky was turning pale and people in the village woke up one after another.
After getting up, the head of the village carefully approached Su Ying's room, wanting to know if she had gotten up. However, Su Ying's door was ajar. Looking through the crack in the door, there was no one in the room.
When the headman pushed open the door and walked in, he saw a lot of copper coins and silver on the table, and a note left there.
Li Zheng was an educated person, and his eyes became red after he saw the contents of the note.
"It is truly a blessing for the people to have such a queen."
