Chapter 174 Little White Egg
Jiang Yao closed the book and walked out the door with a lot of thoughts in his mind. When he reached the door, he bumped into the person who came in.
She looked up in panic and saw it was Su Qianji.
"Flustered."
Su Qianji scolded her in a low voice, and after releasing his hand, he looked at her, only to see that the black jade hairpin was gone from her head. His brows furrowed, "Where's the black jade hairpin?"
"I. I didn't find it."
The man's brows furrowed even tighter, and his expression looked a bit fierce.
"Didn't find it?"
He was not blaming her, but he would be worried if the hairpin left her.
But Jiang Yao thought he was blaming her for accidentally losing it. Although the item was hers, he was the one who paid for it.
Jiang Yao said sullenly, "Don't worry, Master Su, I will do my best to find it."
He glanced back at the thin letter of credence on the table and said, "If I don't find it before you leave, I will definitely return the silver to you."
Su Qianji grabbed her and sighed helplessly: "What are you thinking about again?"
Although he could no longer hear the voice in her heart, this little woman's words and actions showed clearly that she was having wild thoughts again.
"Master Su, you're just worried about that little bit of silver. I will definitely return it to you."
"Do I feel bad about the money?"
"Isn't it?"
Jiang Yao looked up at him.
The man's hand landed on the tip of her nose and pinched it hard: "The black jade hairpin can protect you. If you don't wear it, what if you encounter danger?"
Jiang Yao was stunned. The tip of her nose was pinched by the man. Although his temperature was cold, she felt her heart was burning and beating wildly.
Su Qianji's eyes fell on the table, and she knew that she had seen the almost finished letter.
"Jiang Yao."
"ah?"
"Be good, I'm almost done."
"What's over?"
She didn't understand what this meant and stared at the man blankly.
Su Qianji sighed softly. He couldn't stand her harmless and blank gaze the most, so he raised his hand to block her eyes.
"Jiang Yao, don't look at me like that."
Jiang Yao widened his eyes and only saw the man's palm and the man's Adam's apple rolling behind his palm.
She felt the man approaching her, and a cool kiss fell on her forehead.
"Be good. Things are over in these two days. When I'm done, I have something to tell you."
Jiang Yao nodded woodenly, his face burning hot.
After watching the man enter the house, she turned around mechanically, each step she took being extremely stiff.
Be good.
I have something to tell you.
The man's words kept echoing in my ears, each one so gentle and affectionate.
It wasn't until she reached her room and closed the door that she realized what was happening.
Jiang Yao fell to the ground along the door, raised his hand to touch his forehead, and seemed to still feel the slight chill.
"He has something to say to me."
Thinking of this, the little thoughts in Jiang Yao's mind were magnified infinitely.
She liked Su Qianji. That night, she was plotted against. She still had her rationality towards Lan Ke, but she completely lost her rationality towards Su Qianji. At that time, there was only one thought in her mind. If it was Su Qianji, she would not feel regretful, because it was Su Qianji, she did not have to endure the discomfort.
Jiang Yao smiled foolishly. After the letter was sent, would Su Qianji say that he liked her and then stay in Zhao State?
Just thinking about it makes me feel much better.
Thinking of his egg again, Jiang Yao ran over happily.
"Little White Egg, do you know that Master Su might also have me in his heart?"
Dan ignored her.
"Little White Egg, when can you come out? I'm alone and no one talks to me."
The egg didn't move at all.
Jiang Yao continued talking to himself for a long time, looking at Dan dejectedly: "You are really useless. Bai Chu can help Master Su kill the enemy, but you can't even answer my question."
The egg moved, trembling up and down in the box, as if in protest.
Jiang Yao's eyes lit up: "Little White Egg, you moved? Can you understand what I'm saying?"
Seeing the egg's arc getting bigger, she quickly asked, "Then do you know where the guardian beast is?"
The egg became quiet again.
Jiang Yao rolled his eyes and said with disdain: "Tsk, you really are incompetent."
The egg in the box turned in an instant, the eggshell still a little red, and it was smoldering with anger, looking very unconvinced.
Jiang Yao ran to the door with the box in his arms, looked in the direction the egg pointed, and asked, "Little White Egg, you're amazing! How about I take you to find the gatekeeper beast?"
After she said that, she closed the box, leaving the egg no room to think.
After Jiang Yao returned to the house, he packed a lot of poison and prepared a large number of silver needles.
Before leaving, she went to ask Su Qianji and learned that he had not been going out for a few days. She felt more relieved and told Aunt Liu that she had been feeling unwell for the past few days and did not want to see anyone. She packed her things and went out with the egg.
Jiang Ao's health was getting worse and worse. She knew that his time was up and that the scales of the gatekeeper beast could prolong life. The first thing she thought of was to find the gatekeeper beast.
Jiang Yao hugged the two boxes in his bag tightly, one containing eggs and the other containing Bairizui.
The book says that the gatekeeper beast understands human nature and loves wine. It is said that good wine can be exchanged for everything the gatekeeper beast has.
With the pocket money given by Jiang Ao in his arms, he went out to buy a horse and prepared some dry food. He looked back at Jincheng, mounted his horse and rode away.
I ran westward for half a day, heading in the direction the egg pointed, but I didn't find any information about the gatekeeper beast along the way.
During the break, she took out the box and looked at the egg with resentment in her eyes: "Little White Egg, are you kidding me? Why haven't I found the gatekeeper beast yet?"
The egg started to stop moving again.
Jiang Yao rolled his eyes at it and said, "Do you really need me to tell you you're useless before you're willing to use your powerful reconnaissance abilities?"
Su Qianji said that this egg was a divine beast, a thing from the Yutian Kingdom, a divine beast like Baichu, so she chose to believe in an egg.
And she had no other choice. With the medical skills she had, she could only rely on the scales of the gatekeeper beast.
"Little White Egg, you know, Grandpa is my last relative in this world. I'm afraid of losing him. I don't want to lose him."
A teardrop fell on the egg.
Jiang Yao wiped away her tears with a wronged look, then looked down and saw that the eggs in the box were slowly floating up.
She stared blankly at the egg floating in the air, with a faint white light on the egg body.
"Cry, cry, cry, you foolish mortal. What's the point of crying?"
The woman's voice coming from the egg scared Jiang Yao so much that he sat on the ground.
She swallowed, her voice trembling a little: "Little White Egg, are you talking?"
"If you call me Little White Egg again, I will kill you."
Jiang Yao's mouth twitched, feeling the threat from an egg.
In order to get along peacefully, she asked tentatively: "Then what should I call you?"
The egg shook and said: "I don't remember my name, you give me one."
