After the officers and soldiers entered the room and conducted a thorough carpet search, they naturally found nothing unusual.
Not only could they not find anything, they clearly saw that the back kitchen was already empty, without even a grain of rice. But why did these Central Plains people still look energetic and didn't look like anyone was hungry?
Could it be that they have some food hidden on them?
But it shouldn’t be!
They entered the city gate to confiscate their weapons, but they didn't have any dry food on them.
But how do these thirty-odd people fill their stomachs?
Could it be that there really are traitors in the city who are close to these Central Plains people and are secretly sending them food?
The officers and soldiers left with full of doubts, and Que'er and others were even more curious.
"Girl, where did you hide that thing?"
"These Loulan people are clearly about to overturn our dressing table. Besides, this is their territory. They know exactly where to hide things and how to search. How..."
Que'er scratched his head and went into the room with a puzzled look on his face.
He looked around but couldn't figure out where his girl had hidden the two human skin masks.
Li Qingluo pointed at a painting on the wall.
"Look at that beauty, does she look familiar?"
You don’t know until you see it, and you’ll be shocked when you see it.
There is a picture of a beauty on the wall. If you don’t look carefully, you can’t tell that it is the same face that the girl used before.
Que'er clapped her hands and praised, "Absolutely amazing."
It is indeed difficult to tell the truth from the false.
Moreover, even the Loulan people could not have imagined that the traitor they suspected was actually just a painting on the wall!
The girl simply pasted the human skin mask on the face of the beauty in the original painting on the wall. Even if these Loulan people dug three feet into the ground, they would not be able to find what they were looking for!
After all, who would doubt a painting?
Maybe they don't even know what they are looking for.
Que'er was admiring it when she suddenly heard Li Qingluo say, "Ask Qin Ling to make a new human skin mask."
Que'er thought that the girl would take one more person out tomorrow.
But she was mistaken.
Li Qingluo was about to take Zhuiyu out, and the human skin mask that Xuan Cang had used yesterday was burned to ashes in front of them.
In the blink of an eye, the thin human skin mask turned into ashes.
Qin Ling's heart ached: "What a waste of gifts! Can't I just keep them as a thought?"
This ungrateful little girl!
Nowadays, only those with a lot of money dare to spend money so recklessly. They have completely forgotten how they lived through the hard times in the past!
Qin Ling hadn't vented his resentment yet, but Xuan Cang, who was standing beside him, couldn't help but rush out first.
"Luo'er, what are you doing?"
Xuan reached out with a pale face and grabbed the pile of ashes, but it was too late.
He doesn't understand.
Could it be because of what happened yesterday when I met Zi Su and the others?
Zi Su and the others do have a bad attitude.
But they are all fellow disciples, does she really have to be so fussy about it?
Yes, she was originally of noble status and shouldn't have suffered these grievances, but she didn't have to vent her anger on herself, right?
Xuan Cang's face was full of confusion, and even a little angry.
Li Qingluo didn't care about his hidden emotions at all.
"Brother, your face has already been exposed. Perhaps there are already posters of you on the streets today. Are you planning to walk into a trap by going out with that face on?"
"You should stay here for the next two days. Zhui Yu and I will go out to gather information and do some shopping."
Xuan Cang: "But yesterday I agreed with Zi Su and the others to discuss rescuing Master today. What will they think if I don't go?"
"I'm afraid their lives are very difficult now. No, I have to go out and take a look!"
Li Qingluo shook his head helplessly and sighed.
She looked at Xuan Cang and knew that he was not her subordinate, so he didn't have to listen to her in everything.
"If you get caught, remember to tell him you've got nothing to do with us."
Xuan Cang's face was also cold: "Don't worry, no matter what we do, we will not implicate your Princess Yue!"
Everyone around felt something was wrong when they heard this.
Before Que'er could say anything, Zhuiyu interrupted her and said, "Our girl is more than just the Princess of Yue."
"Master Xuan Cang has been traveling with us all over the country these days, even to Rong Le's place. Don't you know how noble our young lady is? What's her status?"
"Even the princess of Daliang didn't give us girls a hard time. She kept calling me sister and was as obedient as a kitten, without any airs at all."
"Why, you guys are bullying others just because you're from the same sect, and you don't take our girl seriously?"
"Remember! Even Mr. Nangong has never let his beloved little disciple suffer any injustice!"
Zhui Yu's barrage of words left Li Qingluo speechless.
He was indeed A Shi’s man. He knew what his mistress had been through in just a few words.
Moreover, it must be said that Zhui Yu was eloquent and he left Xuan Cang speechless.
Xuan's face turned pale: "Luo'er, that's not what I meant..."
Li Qingluo shook his head. "Please forgive me, Senior Brother. Zhui Yu meant no harm."
"In short, just be careful in everything."
After saying that, Li Qingluo didn't say anything more to Xuan Cang. He turned around and took Zhuiyu to change the human skin mask together.
Xuan Cang didn't even notice when the two of them left.
Li Qingluo and Zhuiyu were walking on the street wearing bamboo hats.
If you want to go out in broad daylight without being seen, the only options are to pretend to be blind or wear a straw hat and pretend to be a farmer.
Fortunately, Li Qingluo discovered yesterday that there were many people wearing conical hats on the street, so he and Zhuiyu easily blended into the crowd.
