Eighty-fourth bowl of soup (eight)
It takes five days from here to the Kance Empire, and even if it takes day and night, it will take at least two and a half days. And Lance only has ten days left at most. It will take another two days to reach the capital after landing from the Kance Empire, which means that there are only five and a half days left for Lance. During these five and a half days, they had to try their best to cross many obstacles to collect blue leaf flowers without letting them wither. And the pursuers of the Kang Si Empire will definitely not allow them to easily achieve their goals. Since they have been able to track Nick for so long, they must have the determination to kill them. As Nick's companions, they know that they will receive the same treatment.
They parked the boat in a small port and mixed it with ordinary fishing boats to make a camouflage. Lance couldn't walk, and Joe stayed to take care of him.
Regarding the matter of Qing Huan going with them, Nick Owen refused, especially Owen, who almost jumped up: "We are going to a very dangerous place! How can Miss Qing Huan go?! In case of injury What should I do?! No, no, no, I will never agree! Absolutely not!"
Nick held the sword with a blank expression on his face: "You can't go."
"I just want to go." Qing Huan said while arranging the things she needed on the way. To her, the objections from Nick and Owen were not worth mentioning. No one could stop what she decided to do. "Stop me and try."
Nick & Owen: "…"
Miss Qing Huan, you suddenly changed your style of painting and we are not used to it. What about you who are gentle, considerate and easy to talk to
"Take me with you." Qing Huan said with a smile, "With me here, your goals will be smaller. They definitely don't know that there is a woman on board. If I go with you, it will be more convenient."
Yeah…
Joe was changing Lance's dressing, and couldn't help but say, "Miss Qinghuan, you have an oriental appearance..." It should be more eye-catching...
The corner of Qing Huan's mouth twitched: "It's okay, the people in the Constance Empire all have black hair and black eyes, look at Nick, I'm no different from them, right?"
…
Everyone looked at Nick, who had black hair and black eyes, but had a high nose and deep eyes, full of European looks, and looked at Qing Huan, who had black hair and black eyes, but soft and beautiful facial features full of oriental charm, and they collectively stopped talking. Miss Qing Huan... as long as she is happy.
"You can't go, we won't take you with us," Nick said forcefully.
Owen, who has always taken her words as an edict, also disagrees: "That's right, Miss Qing Huan, this is really not a place for a weak woman like you to go, it's dangerous—"
Before he could finish speaking, there was a loud bang, and the person was already beaten into a corner. While everyone was stunned, Nick also let out a muffled grunt and was beaten flying, hitting Owen right on top of him. The two of them collapsed to the ground, speechless.
Qing Huan patted the non-existent dust on her hands, then blew on her fists again: "Ah... It's been too long since I beat anyone, my hands hurt a little."
?
Then she had a familiar sweet and gentle smile: "Can I go with you now?"
Knocking down Nick and Owen together... just with one punch... What kind of terrifying power is this? ! The question is how is this possible? Miss Qing Huan is obviously a weak oriental girl, isn't she? !
When Nick was still in the Kance Empire, he was known as the God of War. He saved the dying country from the brink. His army was invincible and he possessed extremely powerful power. After Owen escaped from the human-snake ship, he was taught by Nick himself, and he had worshiped a very powerful martial artist as a teacher. The two of them could destroy the human-snake ship with extremely high force value and weapons in an instant, but now Was punched away by a weak woman? !
Owen stared blankly at Qing Huan who was walking towards her. She bent down and pulled them up one by one, and said without apology: "I'm sorry, you guys took it a little harder to win your trust, are you okay?"
Lance and Joe were completely stunned, their mouths opened wide, dumbfounded.
how so…
"I'm sorry to keep it from you all the time. In fact, I come from a family of oriental martial arts, and you know about oriental kung fu." Qing Huan said sincerely, "But I am timid. It's great to be together, you don't blame me, do you?"
The feeling that the weakest person on the ship who needs the most care has turned into the strongest fighting force... probably is hard for anyone to accept. Especially Qing Huan, as usual, with a smile on her face, as gentle as water. The men collectively closed their eyes and shook their heads to hypnotize themselves: "It's an illusion, it must be an illusion..."
When he opened his eyes again, there was indeed Miss Qing Huan's familiar smile in front of him, it was indeed a fake, they must have had visual and auditory hallucinations just now. Together with Nick, the four of them nodded in unison, taking it as an illusion. Owen said to Joe: "Hey, Joe, I accidentally fell and bumped into it just now, and my stomach hurts so much, please show me quickly, am I going to die..."
"And me, my stomach hurts too," Nick said.
Joe nodded: "Okay, come here quickly."
Their self-contained conversation made Qing Huan laugh and cry, anyway, it seemed that the two of them didn't intend to take her with them, that's fine. So her face changed: "Forget it, I won't go with you, anyway, I will only cause trouble for you."
But is she really not going
Of course it's fake.
After Nick Owen set off, Qing Huan followed. She told Joe that she had gone out to collect the laundry she had washed yesterday. The two idiots might as well take her with them from the beginning, at least to ensure her safety!
Qiao completely forgot that when Qing Huan proposed to go together, he was one of the four who opposed it.
Because of her understanding of the Kangsi Empire, Qing Huan easily followed. She bought a general map of this place before arriving, how could those two idiots really get rid of her.
Nick's appearance is really eye-catching, not to mention the scar on his face across the cheek, which is his wanted warrant, which can be seen everywhere in the Constance Empire, adults and children all know him, and they all know that he is a big bad guy.
They completely forgot who saved them from the brink of ruin. Today's citizens only know that Nick is a traitor who is collaborating with the enemy and betraying the country and intends to assassinate the emperor and occupy the Kance Empire. They can't wait to eat his flesh and lay bare his skin, so how can they remember that they once pursued this hero like this.
Qing Huan made a statistic out of boredom along the way, and saw a total of 1,752 warrants for Nick, all of which were in remote areas, and Nick Owen chose sparsely populated roads in order to deceive others. It is conceivable that if it is a town, the wanted warrants are probably overwhelming.
How much did the royal family hate this former hero
Qing Huan did not go with Nick and the others, because she felt that the two were purely for firepower, and the arduous task of actually picking blue leaf flowers and saving Lance fell on her. Even if Nick made a disguise, it was impossible to escape the eyes of the royal family, and Owen, who was with him, also became a living target. But it was precisely because of this that Qing Huan was given a chance - no one knew that there was a woman on board, and of course no one would guard against this woman.
However, in order to conceal her oriental appearance, she can only choose places with few people.
Everything was as she expected, she had gone up the mountain to pick blue leaf flowers, but Nick and Owen hadn't appeared yet—they must have been overtaken by the pursuers, Qing Huan thought, they all looked smart, but they were still fools in their hearts . If they really had to wait for them to come back to pick the blue leaf flowers, Lance would probably have half of his body buried in the soil.
When she returned to the boat, there were just a little more than two days left. Joe and Lance saw her coming back alone, with complicated expressions on their faces. Angry, worried, and pleasantly surprised, her face twisted... Qing Huan put down her backpack and greeted them calmly: "Hi."
"Hey... you left without saying anything, don't you realize your mistake?!" Joe said incredulously, "Do you know how much Lance and I worry about you?" If he hadn't stopped him, Lance would have gone I'm looking for her!
Qing Huan made an appearance of honestly admitting his mistake: "I know I was wrong, and I will definitely not do this again next time."
Seeing that she had a good attitude, Joe was relieved, and then looked behind her: "...Huh? Where are Nick and Owen?"
"They didn't come with me. I came back by myself."
"What????!!!!!"
"I brought back the blue leaf flower—why are you looking at me like this?" Qing Huan asked puzzled, "Is there something on my face?"
"You weren't with Nick and the others?! Then, how did you come back alone?" Joe almost fainted. They always thought that Qing Huan had followed Nick and Owen secretly, so although they were anxious, they were not particularly scared. , now knowing that she actually went back and forth alone from the beginning to the end, this is simply, simply—
"Don't worry, I'm fine." These people thought she was a weak woman, it seemed that she didn't beat her hard enough that day. "I'll talk about other things later, let's detoxify Lance first, the smallpox will wither in half a day."
She opened the wooden box carefully, and the blue leaf flowers inside were kept warm with ice cubes, so they would not die quickly in such weather.
Joe still has a lot of things to say, but Lance's poison can't be delayed any longer, so he gave Qing Huan a look: "I'll criticize you later."
Because he is also an oriental, he has always regarded Qing Huan as his younger sister, but if there is such a bold younger sister who does her own thing, his heart will be broken.
Qing Huan watched Qiao handle the blue leaf lace and told him: "That mountain is high and difficult to climb, and there are few blue leaves and flowers. I searched for a long time before I found it. I really have to wait for Nick and Owen. Can Lance be saved? So Joe stop scolding me, I won't do it next time."
