Su Changzhao took Yu Jiuchen away from the ghost market and went to a restaurant in the city.
After walking around for most of the day, they were hungry.
There is food to eat back home, but after all, I am out here, so I have to have a meal. There is another key reason:
[The thing Liu Wuyue just stuffed into my hand is probably the fragment of Qing Kingdom's treasure map, right? ]
[Now the bamboo tube containing the treasure map is in my sleeve. ]
[Tsk, what a hassle~]
[Will you find a place to lose it later? 】
She was just about to do that, but then she thought: [If Liu Wuyue escapes, he should come back to me to ask for the treasure map. Can't we just throw this thing away? ]
But then I thought: [Tsk, what am I afraid of? I came out incognito and wearing a mask, how could he know who I am?]
[That's not right. Liu Wuyue knows divination. He can tell my identity with just a little divination. Otherwise...]
She looked at the people around her calmly.
【Give it to him?】
【right!】
[He is the protagonist of this world. It is legitimate for him to take it. Then Liu Wuyue will find him. The two of them... ahem... OK, I will find a chance to throw the hot potato away later. I will just be the ghost king and live happily~]
After figuring it out, she and Yu Jiuchen had already entered the restaurant lobby.
The enthusiastic waiter welcomed them in.
You only need to wear a mask in the ghost town, that is, in the ghost market. You don’t need to wear it at other times.
When the waiter saw that they both had ghost masks on, he said with a smile, "Hey, two guests, did you go to the ghost market just now?"
Seeing that they were well-dressed, he immediately led them upstairs: "You must be tired from shopping. The private rooms on the second floor are quiet..."
Before he finished speaking, Su Changzhao interrupted and said, "Let's go to the first floor. We'll leave after we finish eating."
"The first floor is not bad either~ hehe~" the waiter immediately changed his words with a smile, turned around and led them to the window seat, "What do you think of this place?"
"Very good." Su Changzhao replied indifferently.
The waiter immediately took off the towel from his shoulders and wiped the tables and chairs for them again.
Su Changzhao waited until he was done before he and Yu Jiuchen sat down separately.
After sitting down, she asked the waiter to order a few special dishes and rewarded him with a silver ingot.
"Serve the food faster and serve the wine first."
"Okay, I'll get you the wine right away~" The waiter ran away happily.
When the waiter returned with the wine, a group of people rushed in at the door.
It is the people of Qing.
[Can this happen? ]
[Did Liu Wu Yue escape, or was he already dealt with by them? ]
Su Changzhao couldn't help but think in his mind.
"Waiter, serve the food and wine!"
The man from Qing didn't go up to the second floor after coming in, but instead found a seat near Su Changzhao and sat down.
Su Changzhao laughed inwardly: [It's amazing, there are so many empty seats here, but he chose to sit near us. ]
"Sir, how about we change seats?" Yu Jiuchen suddenly suggested.
Su Changzhao looked at him, surprised: [Was it that obvious? ]
Mouth: "No, let's just stay here, we'll leave after we finish eating."
[Even you can see that I don't want to sit too close to these people. If I suddenly change my seat, there's no guarantee that the Qing people won't notice us. It's better not to do anything, just eat and leave, that's the best policy.]
Soon, the waiter brought the dishes.
Since many people went to the ghost market to join in the fun today, the first floor lobby of the restaurant is not yet full.
Not long after they served their dishes, the three tables of people from Qing country also had their dishes served.
Then everyone had their meal.
But eat half of it.
Bang!
The Qing prince stomped his wine glass fiercely and said, "What's the point of raising a bunch of good-for-nothings like you!"
He suddenly cursed.
The people of Qing who were eating put down their bowls and chopsticks one after another, and lowered their heads as low as possible!
[Since Liu Wu Yue was so angry, he probably ran away, or he was caught and the treasure map was not found. ]
[You would never imagine that the treasure map you've been dreaming of is either far away or right beside you, just across the table.]
"Why are you all silent? Are you all mute?" The Prince of Qing started cursing again, panting.
"The things are missing and the people are gone! I will be punished when I go back, and you guys won't have an easy time either!!"
Hearing him yelling like that, Su Changzhao guessed that he was guaranteed to complete the mission.
[It is said that King Qing is cruel by nature. If the prince of Qing returns empty-handed, he will most likely be in danger, so he is so irritable.]
Su Changzhao and Yu Jiuchen had almost finished their meal and were about to pay the bill and leave.
Who would have thought that a big man with thick eyebrows beside the Prince of Qing would speak up and suggest: "Young Master, calm down. I have a plan."
"Speak." The prince of Qing had a stern face.
"Why don't we go to the border town of Huoshui in Yulong Country and burn, kill and plunder it. When we return, we can at least reduce the punishment."
"Let's do it." The prince of Qing had a sinister look in his eyes.
When the big man with thick eyebrows heard that his master had agreed, he immediately spread the word: "Everyone, eat quickly, eat well, so that you can work better!"
Although Huoshui Town was under the jurisdiction of Yulong State, the area was far away and the local people had always been at the mercy of bandits and enemy countries.
Since the ghost town was established, the villagers have gradually lived a stable life under the care of the ghost town.
This is also the main reason why the local county magistrate followed the call and sent the lover to the ghost town.
Compared to the Imperial Dragon Court, the Ghost Town is the force they rely on to ensure that they can live a stable and prosperous life.
It can be said that although Huoshui Town today belongs to the Yulong Kingdom in name, it has actually long since become a vassal of the Ghost Town.
Not to mention far away, there are many servants from Huoshui Town in Su Changzhao's City Lord's Mansion.
Their families are all in Huoshui Town.
The prince of Qing Kingdom wants to massacre Huoshui Town, and Su Changzhao can't just stand by and watch!
After the people of Qing had their fill of food and drink, they planned to gather their troops outside the city and head to their destination.
Su Changzhao naturally followed, but she had already sent a signal on the way. She believed that after Li Xing and others saw it, they would quickly come to support her.
But what she didn't expect was that Yu Jiuchen was still following her at this time.
Considering the large number of people in Qing country and Yu Jiuchen's high martial arts skills, it would be very useful to take him with you.
At least it's better than her doing it alone.
So I gave up the idea of abandoning him.
The two rode out of the city at the fastest speed.
Su Changzhao deliberately took him a shortcut, intending to stop the Prince of Qing and others halfway.
Catch the leader first.
As long as the prince of Qing is in their hands, the Qing army will not act rashly.
Yu Jiuchen heard all her plans on the way.
In this way, not only can Huoshui Town be saved, but the war facing Yu Jiuchen can also be quelled, and the Qing Kingdom will definitely withdraw its troops.
The two people have the same goal.
He rode his horse quickly to the road leading to Huoshui Town.
Not long after they arrived, the Prince of Qing and this group of people also arrived on horseback.
"Your Highness, look, there seems to be someone in front!"
The thick-browed general beside him shouted.
The prince of Qing was the first to grab the reins and stop the horse.
When he raised his hand to signal, everyone behind him stopped.
"Who are you?" he shouted, "How dare you block my way? Are you tired of living?"
