Chapter 58: Reciprocity is the key to good manners
Ji Changying rushed over, grabbed his hands behind his back, and pressed his head down: "Why did you run when you saw us?"
"Let me go!" The person under him struggled to push Ji Changying to the ground.
"Tell me who you are first? Why are you here? Why did you run when you saw us? Otherwise, don't blame me for punishing you!"
Ji Changying used a little force in her hands, and the person under her gasped in pain.
"You barbarian! I won't beat up a woman, or I'll make you pay!"
"You don't listen to me, do you? Why don't you answer my question quickly? Otherwise, if I use more force, your hand will be broken!"
Ji Changying's words were threatening.
She just wanted to ask about the situation, otherwise, based on her strength, the man's hand wouldn't be enough for her to break lightly.
Hearing that his hands were about to be crippled, the person under him trembled: "Then let go of one of my hands first, otherwise I won't tell you even if you kill me!"
"Tsk, you have quite a stubborn temper!" Ji Changying curled her lips and let go of one of his wrists.
The man felt his right hand loosen, and with a hiss, he stretched his sore arm. "What do you want to know?"
"What's your name?"
"You Tianming."
"Are you a soldier here?" Ji Changying asked hesitantly. This man was as thin as a chicken and didn't look like someone who had been exercising for a long time.
You Tianming snorted, "Do you not know what I am? Have you ever seen a soldier as skinny as me? I'm just a small fry who was kidnapped and forced to do hard labor!"
"Oh, then why did you run when you saw us? Where does this road lead to? Why are you here?"
You Tianming sighed heavily. "This road leads to the wasteland below. There's nothing there. I stumbled upon this place while looking for something to eat because I was hungry. I didn't expect it to be so dangerous. It took me several attempts to get this far."
"I'm a bit unlucky today. I spotted you guys right after I came out. It would be strange if I didn't run away if I ran into someone here! But who are you? Why are you here? How did you find me?"
You Tianming turned his neck to look at her, sizing her up in confusion.
Only then did Ji Changying realize that the young man was about the same age as her. His face was dirty, probably because he had just fallen to the ground, but she could still see that he had a handsome appearance and bright eyes.
After hearing what he said, Ji Changying let him go: "Don't ask about things you shouldn't ask about!"
You Tianming stood up, brushed off the dirt on his body, looked at her mysteriously and said, "Did you come from outside? The moment I heard you, I knew you weren't from here!"
Xie Siheng looked at him and raised his chin slightly: "You lead the way."
"You made me fall flat on my face just now, and I haven't settled the score with you yet!" You Tianming was so angry when he saw him jumping up and down.
Ji Changying pushed him and said, "Hurry up!"
You Tianming assessed the two men's fighting strength, turned around angrily, and walked back the way he came.
Ji Changying hurriedly followed.
Along the way, You Tianming was in a hurry and a little clumsily leading the two of them forward. Ji Changying, with Xie Siheng by her side, was agile and reacted quickly every time.
And You Tianming always brushed past danger, which made Ji Changying sweat for him.
When Xie Siheng got here, his mouth seemed to be sewn shut. He just looked at her with a dull expression, showing no intention of speaking at all.
I finally reached the exit safely.
It is indeed quite desolate here. There are only weeds as tall as a person and gravel. There is not a single person in sight.
"I've brought it to you. Now I... am leaving?" You Tianming pointed in a direction nearby, glanced at Ji Changying and said cautiously.
Xie Siheng narrowed his eyes: "Why are you in such a hurry? How do we know if you will sell us out? We will let you go after we leave."
This made sense. Ji Changying nodded and said, "That's exactly why we can't just let him go."
Before You Tianming could react, Ji Changying decisively reached out and knocked him unconscious. She dragged him to the weeds and laid him down. She then pulled up some grass to cover him up and clapped her hands, "That's all right now!"
After she finished speaking, her mental power instantly covered the entire area within a radius of ten miles.
I have to say that the place where Prince Duan stores his private soldiers is really large. Even if Ji Changying uses up all his mental power, it only takes up less than a quarter of it.
Because of Jiang Yucheng's sudden death, many people were called over to the entire camp.
Ji Changying quickly locked down the location of the money and grain.
The warehouses and armories were all located in the center of the military camp, not far from Jiang Yucheng's residence.
"Let's go there!" Ji Changying pointed in a direction and glanced at Xie Siheng, motioning him to follow.
The place Ji Changying took him to was none other than the center of the military camp.
After the two of them groped their way along for a while, they felt an unusual atmosphere.
Many people hurried forward with serious faces, cursing, "It's the middle of the night, and I don't know what they want to do! They don't let us rest during the day, and they don't let us sleep well at night. What kind of life is this?"
"Shut up! Something might have happened."
"Not even a fly can fly in, what can happen?"
···
Several people were running very fast while talking without stopping.
Ji Changying nodded in front of her: "See? This is a good place for you to get information. I'm going to look for food over there. Be careful!"
Xie Siheng nodded and took out a few packets of medicine from his sleeve: "This is poison powder, the effect is the same as what Huang Lao used that day, use it when necessary. Once you find the place where the money and grain are stored, don't rush to act, wait for us to work together."
Looking at the medicine powder handed over, Ji Changying was surprised and reached out to take it. After thinking about it, he pretended to feel in his sleeves and took out two black hoods.
It’s courtesy to reciprocate!
Ji Changying put on the black hood and demonstrated to him: "See? With this, you won't be afraid to travel around the world."
Xie Siheng's expression was cracked. He took three steps back and said politely, "I don't need it."
"Why don't you know what's good for you? Take it!"
Ji Changying stuffed one into his hand without allowing him to refuse, looked around, turned around and ran in another direction.
Seeing her leave, Xie Siheng gritted his teeth and put the black hood into his sleeve, then turned around to look for a crossbow.
He had to find a usable weapon first.
After the two separated, Ji Changying seemed to have run away.
After hiding, he swaggered past many soldiers and headed straight for the warehouse.
The lock on the door is not a big deal, but we need to find a way to get rid of the two guards standing at the main door like door gods.
She ran behind the left guard and kept blowing cold air on his neck, then patted him down.
The man subconsciously turned his head and looked, but there was nothing.
He thought it was an illusion, but when he turned around, he felt someone patting his shoulder again. This time he was very sure it was not an illusion.
"Have you, have you, have you seen anything?"
The guard who was photographed had his teeth chattering, and he couldn't help but wrap his clothes around himself, and he began to stutter when he spoke.
"What do you mean? Don't joke around in the middle of the night!" His colleagues looked at him dissatisfiedly.
Ji Changying used the same trick again, blowing cold air on the two people's necks, and suddenly appeared when they turned their heads.
