Chapter 308: Rescue Mission



I rode on the Sanfu and drove it away quickly. I was confused and felt guilty towards Yunwen. Although I was not willing but forced, it happened anyway. This is an indisputable fact. How can I escape the condemnation in my heart? Before the war, I should have been calm and focused, but now that I was disturbed by Bailu, I am afraid that it is not an easy thing to do this.

In my confusion, I forgot that Sanfu was still in the irritable period. I kept squeezing the horse's belly. It threw me out in a hurry. I rolled into the pool, choking on water and getting my nose full of water. My whole body was soaked. I climbed out of the pool and left myself alone for a long time. The cold water woke me up a little. I slapped my face and said, "Don't think about it. It's a matter of life and death now. I should concentrate. When the big thing is settled, I will find a way to explain it to Yunwen. If I fail this time, then this matter will disappear forever on the Sansheng Stone."

Having said this, I felt reassured, regained my confidence, adjusted my state, and sat on Sanfu's back again, driving it back the same way I came.

As I was absent-minded, I didn't take a good look at the scenery and landmarks along the way. When I woke up, I was already at the entrance of the post station. I should have been eager to go home, eager to see Yunwen as soon as possible, to know that she was safe, and then feel relieved, and each of us would be relieved to see each other. But now I feel a little uneasy, having a guilty feeling, and I am afraid to go in.

But no matter what, Yunwen's life safety is more important. No matter how much I worry about it, I can't delay this, so I quickly knocked on the door and shouted, "Yunwen, it's me."

Hearing my voice, footsteps were heard in the yard, coming hurriedly, and the door was opened not long after. Yunwen was panting and looking at me with a smile. I should have responded to her naturally, but when I wanted to do so, my mind kept replaying what happened in the earthen building. Therefore, although I responded with a smile, I knew I was stiff.

Yunwen seemed to notice and was about to ask me, but seeing that I was soaked, she did not ask, but said with concern: "Why are you soaked, are you disobedient again? I'm sorry, it's all my fault. Are you angry with me?"

I quickly shook my head and said, "How could that be? You've already reminded me. It was my own carelessness. There's no need to apologize. Let's go. We have to get things done quickly. We can't care about these things."

"That's good, otherwise the fox clan will be in trouble. But your body is wet like this, I'm afraid you'll catch a cold before you even get there. As the saying goes, more haste makes waste. I think it would be better for you to dry your body before going." Yunwen said.

"No, no!" I said quickly.

Her eyes immediately noticed something, and I thought that if the clothes were dried and Yunwen smelled the rosemary fragrance on them, she would probably get suspicious. Now is the time for a war, if she is distracted by this, the two of us will really die. But seeing her frowning, I quickly slowed down and said, "I'm afraid that because of me, Miss Lingshang and even the entire fox clan will be harmed. That would be bad, so I was a little anxious."

She smiled, nodded and said, "Yes, Zhou Bo, you are right. Also, I just thought about why Song Yingchun didn't deal with us first, but wanted to deal with the White Fox Fairy first. I think it might be that she still wants to fight for the White Fox Fairy's treasure, the Yinxi Pot! If it is really taken away, I am afraid it will be a greater threat to us. You are right, we should set off as soon as possible to avoid unnecessary trouble."

I nodded.

I pulled her onto the horse, and she sat in front of me, and we rode away. However, I was afraid that the smell on my body would alert her, so I deliberately stepped back a little, explaining that my body was too wet and I was afraid it would affect her. She believed me, and I was slightly relieved.

We were heading towards the dangerous jungle without stopping. We passed a fork in the road, passed a forest that had been cut down to bare trees, and then came to a grassy slope. We passed a ghost vine area without ghost vines, and then passed an area where the bison had disappeared. We stopped for a while in front of two stone sculptures. I said, "Yingchun may have made the area near the castle heavily guarded. It would be disadvantageous if we rush in rashly. So my plan is that I will go to explore the situation first, and then go in alone to look for the secret passage prison. I think Hu Lingshang must be in there. After releasing it, we will run out first, and then you will come to meet us. How about it?"

"You mean, you go in by yourself? And let me guard it, right?" Yunwen asked.

"Yes, that's what I mean," I said.

"Zhou Bo, what's wrong with you? How could you come up with such an idea? The castle wall is as high as two stories. How are you going to sneak in and how are you going to get out by yourself? The Golden Sword can only be swung once. Without Sanfu to lend you some strength, wouldn't you be courting death if you used it? Even if you are very skilled and can seize the opponent's weapons and fight a hundred people alone, if a tall armored monster comes out, can you deal with it? Don't tell me this is a plan you carefully thought of." Yunwen was a little annoyed.

I was also a little at a loss. If it were a normal day, I should have been focused and thought this through before coming up with a plan. But now I was upset and in a bad state, and I couldn't even understand these most basic things. I deserved to be scolded.

"I..." I was speechless for a moment.

Yunwen sighed and said, "Zhou Bo, I don't know what happened to you, but now we are working hard for everyone to survive. You shouldn't be so indecisive. If you have something on your mind or are dissatisfied with me, can you wait until this storm is over before thinking about it? Please, the fox tribe has done us a favor, and the White Fox Fairy has done us an even better favor. We can't be so irresponsible to them."

Then, I took a deep breath, adjusted myself, suppressed the guilt and the chaotic thoughts in my mind, got serious, and began to use reason to analyze the current situation, as well as the various pros and cons. After pondering for a moment, I basically figured it out.

"You're right. We should concentrate on dealing with the enemy now, not only for the fox clan, but also for you. We should make things clear. Also, we must not let the Song family bully us enough and we remain indifferent! Then listen to this plan. According to your analysis, Song Yingchun must be trying to interrogate Miss Lingshang about the Yinshi Pot. Therefore, there will be severe torture, but there is a lack of motivation to endanger her life. Therefore, Miss Lingshang should be able to save her life. According to Song Yingchun's temperament, she bullies others by taking advantage of her power and is as timid as a mouse. She will definitely keep the most powerful ones by her side to be on the safe side. Therefore, there must be a bunch of minions outside. From this we can..." I said.

"The analysis is correct. From this, we can rush into the city within a limited time, find Yingchun, and find the White Fox Fairy at the same time." Yunwen said.

"That's right. The only threat to the city is the Zhuge Crossbow. As long as we destroy it, the city gate won't be able to stop Sanfu, and those hyena minions holding axes won't be able to stop me either. We will have the initiative." I said.

I made this analysis because I noticed these things during the last negotiation. After all, Zhuge Crossbow is a skillful craftsmanship and the hyena people cannot make it, so Yingchun can only make it herself. And I heard from Song Bailu that she is often sleepy in the house, which means she does not have much time. At this efficiency, she will definitely not be able to make a new one in a week. In this case, there will only be one placed on the city wall, and I have roughly figured out the geographical location and blind spots.

Therefore, my analysis is now relatively objective.

"Yes, this is the style my Zhou Bo should have!" Yunwen said with a smile.

"Thank you for the compliment. Listen to my instructions. I need to push the crossbow cart out, confirm its position, and destroy it. Therefore, you may need to act as a lead first and ride Sanfu around to attract their attention. I will find a way to destroy the crossbow cart. As long as the crossbow cart is destroyed, we will have the upper hand, and those minions will be like decorations. Don't let Sanfu fight with them, otherwise he will be easily targeted." I said.

Yunwen hesitated for a moment, but still nodded. After all, my opinion is the most pertinent one at the moment.

However, we each have our own difficulties here. I understand Yunwen's hesitation. The dog days are a restless period and she may not be obedient. I also have problems concentrating now, and this may very well become the key to a turning point.

If the incident in the blockhouse dormitory had not happened, perhaps we would have more confidence now.

I just hope that this oath of two dragons flying together and coexisting in the universe can still be realized!
