Qin Dynasty: Sword Asks the Bright Moon

Chapter 270 The Witch and the Good Wife

Seeing the two ferocious and cunning beasts, Yan Lingji arrived here without saying a word, and directly waved her palms, and the flames all over the sky swept towards the wild wolves.

When the wild wolves saw Yan Lingji, who was more ferocious than themselves, and their fear of fire, they subconsciously wanted to escape, but in the hands of Yan Lingji, how could they escape? In just a blink of an eye, the two of them The wild wolf was swallowed up by the flame dragon, and the miserable horn sound gradually fell silent.

"Are you Baiyue people?" Yan Lingji asked, carrying the little girl towards the two Baiyue people who were still alive.

"Who are you?" Looking at Yan Lingji, who controlled the flames and killed two wild wolves with a raised hand, an old man among the two Baiyue people, who was probably the little girl's grandfather, said tremblingly.

"I'm asking you." Sensing the fear deep in the old man's eyes, Yan Lingji gradually became impatient.

"Yes, we all come from the land of Baiyue. We thank the witch for saving our lives." The old man quickly knelt down on the ground and kowtowed to Yan Lingji repeatedly.

"Miko-sama?" Yan Lingji couldn't help but smile when she heard this title. This was the first time she heard it.

However, the tribesmen who I didn't like very much in the past seemed not to be so annoying now when I saw them in this strange country. Yan Lingji thought, and cast her eyes in the direction where she came from. There, there was a line of people coming. Chi's figure.

"Yes, you must be a witch from the Kingdom of Baiyue, right? Are you sent by Emperor Yu to save our tribe?" the old man said tremblingly.

Witches are synonymous with mystery and power in the land of Baiyue. According to rumors, in the long past, there were witches in every tribe. They were powerful and mysterious, and protected their own tribe. Later, I don’t know since when, in the land of Baiyue, there were kings, nobles, and officials. The figure of the witch gradually disappeared. Then, only the mystery of the witch remained.

"Interesting." Yan Lingji said inexplicably as she looked at the old man and the little girl who looked in awe.

"Go and see your companion. You'd better send him on his way. In his condition, he won't survive." Yan Lingji said coldly, leaving the little girl behind.

Under the old man's respectful invitation, Yan Lingji, who had nowhere to go and rarely saw her clansmen, finally went to the gathering place of Baiyue people in the mountains and forests.

In Yan Lingji's words, living in the wild is too boring, and she wants to hear human voices.

Although the Baiyue people living in South Korea are human beings, they are actually no better than bereaved dogs.

Looking at the extremely simple gathering place around her, Yan Lingji said to Yang Ming, "Are we in the wrong place? This place is too primitive and not as comfortable as the bluestone by the river."

"But there are voices you want to hear here." Yang Ming looked at the surrounding environment, and then looked at Yan Lingji, with deep malice in his eyes.

If there is not another group of Baiyue people in South Korea, then the Baiyue people here will be poisoned and killed by Baiyue Tianze who will see the light of day again in the near future. And if Yan Lingji stays here, she will still be with the people here. After having a good relationship, how will she choose when Baiyue Tianze wants to destroy this place? It must be a very interesting thing to think about.

However, this requires a premise, that is, Yan Lingji really cares about these Baiyue people, otherwise, when the time comes, she will only stand unconditionally on the side of her former 'master'.

Yang Ming thought about it and already had his own plan in mind.

The situation of the Baiyue survivors gathered here, who didn't even have a few iron tools, was obviously extremely miserable. Yang Ming looked around and saw that there was not even a single person with complete clothes in the gathering place of more than a thousand people. Tinkering, almost like a beggar.

However, it is precisely because of this that these Baiyue immigrants, whose mother country has died and are living in foreign lands, are more united and more grateful.

When they found out that it was Yan Lingji and Yang Ming who had saved their tribe, and that Yan Lingji was still a member of the Baiyue tribe, they all rushed forward, took out the 'treasures' they had found from nowhere, and wanted to entertain Yang Ming and Yan Lingji.

Facing these kind and pitiful tribesmen, Yan Lingji couldn't help but feel annoyed, especially when thousands of people knelt in front of her, shouting "Miko-sama" and kowtowed to her. At this time, Yang Ming even saw the anxiety and nervousness in Yan Lingji's eyes.

This is a completely obedient donkey. She can take someone's life because of someone's slightest offense, and she can also be overwhelmed by someone else's sincerity and kindness.

"What should I do?" Looking at the crowd of people in front of her, Yan Lingji, who was at a loss for a while, cast a look at Yang Ming for help.

"You can stay and be their miko. It would be very interesting to have so many people respect you like a god." Yang Ming said with a smile.

"Whoever is interested in becoming their miko-sama, I don't care about them." Yan Lingji said with disgust.

Her feelings for the so-called tribesmen were really limited. If it weren't for the first time she saw these tribesmen after escaping from captivity, Yan Lingji wouldn't even have the intention to save them.

"If you are looking for someone, you may be able to use these people." Yang Ming, who is familiar with what Yang Ming will do next, said bewilderedly.

"This?" Sure enough, as Yang Ming finished speaking, Yan Lingji fell into hesitation.

She needs to find her former companions, but can these people really be used?

"You might as well stay. Anyway, you have nowhere to go now. If you want to leave at any time, just leave. How can they stop you?" Yang Ming pointed at the dense crowd of people in front of him.

"That's right. Being a miko-sama seems to be a very interesting thing." Yan Lingji said with interest.

Having made up her mind, Yan Lingji cleared her throat and said in a voice that she thought was quite majestic: "Since you are so kind to invite me, I reluctantly agree."

But then Yan Lingji was stuck. What should I say next? Yan Lingji looked at Yang Ming subconsciously, her blue eyes filled with confusion: What should I say?

Who knows what Yan Lingji needs to say at this time.

Fortunately, the witch only needs to remain mysterious in the Baiyue tribe and does not need to say anything at all. Therefore, although she speaks boldly and sharply in front of Yang Ming, she turns into a stupid person in front of these Baiyue people. Yan Lingji can still be promoted to the position of witch.

In the following time, Yan Lingji adapted to her role as a witch, while Yang Ming concentrated on practicing Tianshuang Fist to refine the cold energy in his meridians.

And a big event happened in Xinzheng, which is not too far away from here. The ghost soldiers robbed the pay. One hundred thousand gold military pay disappeared into nothing overnight. Even with the power of South Korea, facing one hundred thousand The loss of gold military pay was also a thorn in the side. South Korea had more than this amount of wealth at that time, but as a country, the Korean court's expenditures were also huge. When the 100,000 taels of gold used to pay military pay evaporated inexplicably, South Korea needed to start from other countries. One hundred thousand taels of gold were dismantled in a certain place, and the chain effects caused by it may not be fully controllable.

What's even more terrifying is that it was the ghost soldiers who robbed the military pay. For a time, the incident became even more bizarre and the whole of Xinzheng fell into panic.

On the second day after Yan Lingji and Yang Ming met, in Zilanxuan, Zinu looked at her former acquaintance Li Wu and asked inexplicably: "So, he is okay for the time being?"

"Yes, sir, he was injured a little. He may not be able to avoid being taken advantage of by people with ulterior motives. He needs to hide for a while to heal." Li Wu, who was sent to Zilanxuan by Yang Ming's secret message, replied.

"He was injured, and Xinzheng actually has a master who can injure him?" Zi Nu pondered, with a look of worry on her face.

"Does he have any other instructions?" Zi Nu asked calmly.

"Your Majesty asked us to follow Madam's orders. As for other matters, Your Majesty has no instructions." Li Wu said honestly.

Li Wu is no stranger to Zi Nu. After all, she had met Yang Ming when she was in Yanmen. She knew that at that time, the relationship between Zi Nu and Yang Ming was extraordinary. Now Yang Ming lets Luo Wang work in Xinzheng. The power is all at the disposal of Zi Nu. Li Wu has no surprises and no doubts. After all, Zi Nu is very likely to become her master.

"What's Luo Wang's plan?" Zi Nu asked.

"Reporting to Madam, in the past three years, Luo Wang has mainly penetrated Nanyang, South Korea. He has not invested much effort in Xinzheng, and he has never had any tasks in Xinzheng." Li Wu replied.

"Then everything will be business as usual. If there is anything unplanned, you can come to me and I will find a solution." Zi Nu said.

"Madam..." Li Wu showed a hint of hesitation as he spoke.

"What's wrong?" Zi Nu asked.

"In Xinzheng, your Excellency had a plan before." Li Wu looked embarrassed: "However, after your Excellency needed to retreat, he was worried that we would not be able to do it, so he canceled the plan."

"What's the plan?" Zi Nu asked.

"One hundred thousand taels of gold in the ghost soldier robbery case." Li Wu said.

"One hundred thousand taels of gold?" Zi Nu also showed a solemn look when she heard this. Now this batch of military pay is making a fuss. Even if Zi Nu doesn't want to know, she has heard about this matter. Yang Ming is also planning it. This incident seemed to have occurred before the ghost soldier robbery case occurred.

"What's Luo Wang's plan?" Zi Nu asked.

"This plan is called the mantis catching the cicada and the oriole behind it." Li Wu said: "The ghost soldiers robbed the salary is something planned by the Korean general. In the name of the ghost soldiers, he took one hundred thousand taels of gold as his own. This is the cicada's plan. , and now Han Fei, the Ninth Young Master of South Korea, is investigating this matter. Your Excellency believes that Han Fei can investigate the whereabouts of this military pay from Ji Wuye. Take it away in advance before ten thousand gold. This is the oriole.

"So that's it." Zi Nu muttered, one hundred thousand taels of gold, this is not a small amount of money. You must know that back then, she and Yang Ming risked their lives in the Zhao Kingdom and only got tens of thousands of gold, and that was not a small sum of money. It's just tens of thousands of gold, and that's tens of thousands of gold, but it's not tens of thousands of taels of gold, but tens of thousands of gold coins. When gold coins are minted, some other metals will be mixed into them to make the gold coins more durable. It is brighter and easier to plasticize, so the gold content of four gold coins is only one tael. These 100,000 taels of gold, converted into standard gold coins circulating in the land of Sanjin, can be at least 400,000 gold coins. Such a huge number, It would be a pity to give up right now.

Zi Nu pondered, already having a plan.
