Chapter 36 Her face didn't even turn red
Ye Xiaoman never expected that all her painstaking efforts would ultimately expose her identity because of this small necklace.
The two arrived at their destination and went their separate ways.
Ye Xiaoman put on a disguise device and walked towards the secret entrance of the base according to the map given by her superior.
The demon standing guard at the door confirmed her identity and brought her to the supervisor.
The supervisor threw her a shovel and said, "You and the new guy go dig a tunnel."
She was driven to a construction site.
Dozens of demons were working like slaves, digging caves and moving stones in the rain.
The demon cultivator who was overseeing the operation waved his pigtails and said, "Everyone must die before we leave the mountain unless the mission is completed."
Her life is really hard.
Ye Xiaoman worked hard on the construction site for the whole morning.
During lunch break, everyone was given a box lunch.
All the demons squatted in a circle and ate with gloomy faces.
After the supervisor finished his meal, he coughed pretentiously, but no one paid any attention to him.
Only Ye Xiaoman came over and helped him take the disposable lunch box to the trash can and poured him a glass of water.
"Boss, what is this base used for?"
"I don't know either. Just do your job. If you don't dare to ask, don't ask."
The supervisor was very satisfied with Ye Xiaoman's servility and assigned her some easy work in the afternoon.
"You, stop digging holes and go on patrol. If you see anyone suspicious, report it immediately."
Ye Xiaoman's smug look made the other demons who still had to do hard labor hate her to the core.
"Don't be too happy. Several waves of assassins have infiltrated the base recently, and more than a dozen members of the patrol have been killed."
"Be careful, you're next."
Ye Xiaoman waved her hands: "Jealousy! You are threatening me purely out of jealousy."
The patrol work was exactly what Ye Xiaoman wanted.
It's a good opportunity to walk around and collect information.
I don’t know if Xiao Chujing has found any useful clues.
Ye Xiaoman stood with his hands behind his back, looking very serious, with a badge of a small leader hanging on his waist, inspecting the construction progress in various places.
The base is large and has many off-limits areas.
Ye Xiaoman looked around for an hour and her feet were tired, so she decided to find a deserted place to take a break.
Suddenly, a shrill alarm sounded in the base.
All the demons were in turmoil.
"Someone sneaked in."
"Catch them!"
"Everyone on alert! Kill any intruders you encounter!"
A group of demon cultivators flew past before him, and soon the sound of weapons clashing came from the distant corridor.
Xiao Chujing was discovered?
Ye Xiaoman hid in the corner of the aisle and watched what happened.
After a while, she saw several familiar figures walking towards the aisle in front.
It was the eldest brother and other fellow disciples. They were disguised as demons and were searching for something together.
The eldest brother said: "I don't know which unlucky guy has been discovered. The situation is dangerous. Let's go back first."
Others disagree.
"Let's look for a while longer. Didn't the tip say that all the undercover agents in the city will be summoned by the demons to do some work today?"
"Ye Xiaoman disappeared at this critical moment. It's very suspicious."
"We've all found this place, let's look for it a little longer."
The eldest brother hesitated: "Junior Brother Xiao is monitoring Junior Sister..."
"I'm afraid Junior Brother Xiao will protect her."
"Okay, let's look for it again."
They talked as they walked towards the place where Ye Xiaoman was hiding.
Ye Xiaoman quickly ran back.
Passing by a warehouse where miscellaneous items were stored, she slowed down and wondered whether she should go in and hide for a while.
A breeze blew overhead.
After Ye Xiaoman upgraded to the second level of Qi Refining and opened up another spiritual root, her five senses were far superior to before. She subconsciously looked up.
I happened to meet eyes with a man clinging to the stone wall.
Oh my god.
Ye Xiaoman was startled and subconsciously wanted to scream, but the man swooped down silently and covered her mouth.
He flicked his fingers and a stream of air flew out, silently opening the warehouse door. Before the eldest brother and others could catch up, he grabbed her, and in a flash, he flew into the warehouse.
There are a lot of miscellaneous items piled up in the warehouse.
Ye Xiaoman's arms were handcuffed behind her back, a big hand was pressing the back of her head, and her face was forced to press against a stone slab.
The man holding her hostage had his chest pressed against her back, and in order to control her, he held her tightly with his entire body.
The man thought Ye Xiaoman was a sentry from the demon tribe, and the first thing he did after catching her was to kill her.
His knife cut her carotid artery.
Unexpectedly, Xiao Chujing's defensive magic weapon sensed the invasion of external forces, and the runes automatically lit up, and her body was protected by a layer of faint blue light.
The man was surprised that this little cannon fodder was actually wearing a magical defensive weapon that only aristocratic families could enjoy.
He couldn't help but whispered to her, "Who are you?"
Ye Xiaoman quickly said, "I'm a good person."
The man raised his eyebrows in displeasure. Killing Ye Xiaoman would be easy with his ability, but before killing her he had to break her defensive magic weapon, which would make a loud noise and attract pursuers.
I can only give up for now.
In order not to arouse the murderous intent of the man behind her, Ye Xiaoman stopped struggling and stood obediently.
The two were very close, and she could clearly smell the man's fragrance.
Unlike Sikong Qing's natural body fragrance, the scent on this man's clothes is luxurious ambergris.
I recalled his appearance in my mind.
He seemed to be wearing the attire of an important person in the palace, a noble purple robe with a five-clawed dragon embroidered in dark thread, and a jade pendant tied around his waist.
She has a gentle and elegant temperament, eyebrows like distant mountains, eyes like horizontal waves, and is as timeless as a classical landscape painting.
This seemingly gentle man held Ye Xiaoman's fragile neck tightly with his big hand and whispered softly in a very gentle tone, "Be honest, otherwise, I will tear you apart."
Calling himself "Gu", which country's prince is he from?
Ye Xiaoman quickly searched for the names of the characters in the original work.
The man suddenly frowned in disgust.
“Ah, ah…”
Ye Xiaoman was worried about her life and had no time to pay attention to anything else, so she didn't notice the sound piercing her eardrums.
Before them was a mountain of rocks piled up to the roof.
Through the gaps between the stones, you can glimpse the scene on the open space ahead.
Ye Xiaoman saw clearly that on the pile of debris, there was a pair of male and female monks doing something indescribable.
"Um……"
"Xiaobaoer, I miss you so much."
"If we hadn't come out to carry out the mission, how could we have met?"
"Ignore the mission, I just want you."
This scene and feeling is better than visiting Qinglou even though you are not there.
Ye Xiaoman lived in the end times in her previous life and had seen all kinds of storms.
She is very calm.
However, the man behind him seemed unable to tolerate it and almost wanted to kill someone several times.
Back to the pair of mandarin ducks, they are indeed cultivators, so their time is guaranteed.
Outside the warehouse, the righteous were facing the demons, shouting and killing, but it did not affect them at all and they were completely immersed in it.
A full 40 minutes later, the fighting outside ended, and they reluctantly left together.
Ye Xiaoman acted indifferent, which the man seemed to find incredible. He couldn't help but turn her over and look at her.
His face was really thin, not even a bit red.
