The rising sun is beautiful, but the sunset is just as gorgeous.
When the afterglow of sunset spread over the vast land of China, Zhu Li set off.
Today is the day he and his sister agreed upon. He is going to rescue Zhu Ning'er and bring her home safely.
After three days and three nights, Guangmao lived up to everyone's expectations and finally opened a passage that led directly to Shilunnabo.
According to their original idea, they wanted to open the exit directly in the big tent where Zhu Ning'er lived; but that big tent was worthy of being used to imprison people, and the entire base of the tent was made of iron plates, making it impossible to dig.
In desperation, after some discussion, the four of them had to let the optical modem open an exit in a remote corner; however, this obviously made the rescue much more difficult.
Just after Zhu Li entered the passage, when Qing Ruo brought the light cat and the little demon back to the tent, they were greeted by six uninvited guests.
All six of them were from the Central Plains. They all looked exhausted, but their expressions were very stern, and it was obvious at first glance that they were not the kind of people who could be easily dealt with.
The leader was a beautiful lady who looked like a fairy and had an unparalleled charm.
She is like the moon, whose beauty cannot be described by the moon; she is as beautiful as a dream, whose appearance cannot be depicted by the dream.
This lady was none other than Wang Yueyao, who had traveled all the way to the capital, exhausted and chasing the stars and the moon.
Behind Wang Yueyao, there were five men, one of whom was Meng Taiji, who swore allegiance to her under the city of Taiyuan.
As for the other four, they were the leaders of the Ghost Guards who sneaked to Shangjing to help Zhu Li, Jing Ming, Wang Chong, Yi Jiangnan, and Li Gufeng.
Qing Ruo and the other two became nervous instantly when they saw the person coming.
Xiao Yao and Guang Mao immediately put their right hands on the hilt of the sword, as if they were ready to draw their swords and whistle if they disagreed.
As their eldest sister, Qing Ruo also had a solemn expression on her face. She looked at the newcomers and asked indifferently, "Who are you? Don't you know that this is Mie Di Shali's camp?"
"How dare you." Without waiting for Wang Yueyao to respond, Meng Taiji immediately took two steps forward and shouted, "Do you know who you are talking to?"
"You barbarians dare to offend my mistress. I think you are tired of living..."
However, before Meng Taiji could finish shouting, Wang Yueyao waved her hand to interrupt his rudeness.
According to the clues, this big tent should be Zhu Li's residence; although Qing Ruo and the other two are from different races, they can stay with Zhu Li. In her opinion, these people should not be enemies.
But after hearing what Meng Taiji said, Qing Ruo, Guang Mao and Xiao Yao looked at each other, and their expressions became somewhat surprised and uncertain.
Wang Yueyao saw the expressions of the three people. She coughed lightly and said, "Ahem, there's no need to be nervous. We are here to kill Di Shali. Where is he now?"
But before she finished her words, Qing Ruo and the other two became even more surprised, and their expressions became more and more nervous.
You know, Zhu Li gave himself the name Yelu Mie Di. Apart from Yelu Hua Ge, Gao Ang and others, only a few of them knew about this.
How could they not be surprised that this lady, who was as beautiful as a fairy, came here to visit Yelu Mie Di? Was it because they had the same name, or had their identities been discovered by others long ago
Thinking of this, Qing Ruo and the other two could not help but feel nervous.
Wang Yueyao immediately sensed something was wrong with this situation. To avoid misunderstanding, she quickly explained, "As you can see, I'm from the Central Plains. To be exact, we're from Shuozhou. You should know why we're here."
"Shuozhou!" Qing Ruo exclaimed immediately. Isn't this place name exactly where Zhu Li's lair is
Zhu Li had already told Qing Ruo and the other two his identity; when they heard that Wang Yueyao was from Shuozhou, they were naturally surprised and delighted.
Of course, they would not just listen to one side and believe it. Qing Ruo quickly asked Wang Yueyao: "Do you have any evidence?"
"Evidence?" Wang Yueyao was a little confused. She really didn't have any evidence.
However, at this moment, Jing Ming suddenly stepped forward, took out a fang mask, shook it towards Qing Ruo, and asked earnestly: "Can this prove it?"
Qing Ruo was familiar with the ghost guard mask; but a mask alone was obviously not enough to convince them.
Who knows, this mask was not taken away by these people after they killed the ghost guards
Perhaps she saw the distrust of Qing Ruo and the others, Wang Yueyao was somewhat helpless, and said frankly: "The Yelu Miedi you follow, his real identity is the Huaihua General Zhu Li, and I am his secretary Wang Yueyao."
"The general broke into Shangjing alone to rescue his sister Zhu Ning'er. We are worried about the general, so we tracked him down here. Madam, think about it, a few Han people like us are in the Khitan's lair. Is it necessary to deceive you?"
This statement is tantamount to exposing one's own family. Wang Yueyao would never resort to such a desperate measure unless it was absolutely necessary.
Faced with such a calm Wang Yueyao, Qing Ruo and the other two relaxed a lot.
According to Qing Ruo, there were six people on the other side, and at first glance, they were definitely not ordinary people; there were only three people on his side, and the other side had twice as many people as him. If the other side had ill intentions, there was no need to say anything more, just capture them, why waste words
Wang Yueyao's frankness showed that the other party was sincere and had no ill will towards her and others. All he did was to be eager to prove his identity. This meant that the other party was at least not an enemy.
With his mind relaxed, Qing Ruo immediately said, "Sorry, we are in the Khitan's lair, so we have to be careful. Please forgive us."
"You're welcome, ma'am. We understand. By the way, where is the general? Why didn't we see him?" Seeing that the other party had let down his guard, Wang Yueyao just made a casual polite remark and immediately asked about Zhu Li's whereabouts.
"The general has already sneaked into Shilunabao, preparing to rescue Lady Ning'er tonight." Since he was sure that the other party was a friend and not an enemy, Qing Ruo no longer concealed it and immediately said it frankly.
"Shi Runabo?" Wang Yueyao was puzzled.
Jing Ming seemed to see her confusion and quickly explained: "My lady, Shilu Nabo refers to the camp of Yelu Shilu of the Diela tribe in Yuyue."
"What?" Wang Yueyao exclaimed immediately when she heard that Zhu Li went to the camp alone to rescue people, "He went alone? Where is the camp?"
Wang Yueyao, who was always as calm as an ice lotus, immediately became pale and worried when she heard that Zhu Li was going to take the risk alone.
This expression of hers caught the eyes of Qing Ruo and the other two, and made them feel completely relieved until this moment; Wang Yueyao was so worried, so anxious, and so uneasy, this must be someone close to the general, right
Otherwise, who would be so worried about the general? A beautiful woman as beautiful as a fairy seemed to have lost her soul in the blink of an eye, just like a lotus in a rainstorm.
Seeing Wang Yueyao like this, even Qing Ruo, who was a girl, couldn't help but feel infinite love for her. She quickly explained, "Don't worry, my lady. We spent three days digging a tunnel that leads directly to Shilun Nabo. The general sneaked in through the tunnel. It shouldn't be too dangerous."
"typical?"
"In three days, we can build a tunnel leading directly to Shilunnabo?"
"Just the four of you?"
Qing Ruo's words immediately shocked Wang Yueyao and the other six, and they were stunned. Even if Liu Rengong, who was known as Liu Kutou, came in person and was given four people, he would not have the ability to do this.
After being shocked, Wang Chong immediately asked in surprise, "Could it be that someone else got here before us?"
Seeing everyone's shocked expressions, Qing Ruo proudly puffed out her chest, as if she had dug the tunnel herself.
The peacock spread its feathers for only a moment; then she said calmly, "No, you are the first group to find this place."
"We were able to dig a tunnel in three days, all thanks to the kitten." As he said this, Qing Ruo looked at Guang Mao with approval.
The young Guangmao, being looked at with approval by the big sister, immediately became so excited that his face turned red, and his heart felt sweeter than eating honey.
The others followed Qing Ruo's gaze and soon noticed this taciturn young man. They all showed admiration for him. Wang Yueyao immediately praised him inwardly, "What a genius!" A genius that is hard to find in the world!
After the praise, the topic returned to Zhu Li, and Wang Yueyao asked, "General, do you have any plans before you leave?"
It has to be said that both Wang Yueyao and Yuchi Jin are extraordinary women of their generation, rare and unrivaled in the world.
Since Zhu Li has chosen to take the risk and put it into action, all Wang Yueyao can do is to clean up the mess for him.
Qing Ruo did not dare to neglect Wang Yueyao's question and quickly said, "The general said that if he doesn't come back by dawn, we should immediately spread the news that 'Yelü Hua Ge is having an affair with his father's concubine'."
Wang Yueyao was stunned when these words came out, and a funny arc appeared on the corner of her mouth. She really didn't expect that Zhu Li would take advantage of such a thing.
A woman in love is breathtakingly beautiful, but also incredibly stupid.
In their eyes, no matter what the other party does, it is right, even taking advantage of immoral things just seems cute.
But when the others heard the news, they immediately started making faces; among them, Yi Jiangnan and Li Gufeng laughed the most wantonly, as if they had witnessed something obscene with their own eyes.
This kind of thing will always be despised by others. Wang Yueyao pretended not to notice the reactions of the other people and immediately asked, "Anything else?"
"Uh, that's all." Qing Ruo glanced at Wang Yueyao, then immediately lowered her head and said unnaturally.
In fact, before leaving, Zhu Li asked them to spread the news and take the opportunity to escape from Shangjing just in case. However, Qing Ruo refused to say it clearly in front of Wang Yueyao.
However, Wang Yueyao, who was worried about Zhu Li, did not notice Qing Ruo's unnaturalness. After hearing this, she frowned, as if she was considering the current situation.
After a while, Wang Yueyao suddenly raised her head and immediately said, "Jing Ming, Wang Chong, the two of you go outside the city immediately and gather the subordinates waiting there. Have them sneak in here quietly under the cover of night."
"If the general has not returned by dawn, you will work with these three friends to spread the news and be ready to fight to the death at any time."
"Yes." Upon hearing this, Jing Ming and Wang Chong responded without any hesitation.
"Meng Taiji, Yi Jiangnan, and Li Gufeng."
"I am here."
"The three of you follow me and go meet the general."
"Yes." The three of them looked solemn. They knew that this "welcome" might mean going deep into Shilunabao. However, since they had already pledged their allegiance to Zhu Li, they naturally wanted to follow him till death and were not afraid of taking risks.
After Wang Yueyao gave instructions to the five people, she immediately turned to Qing Ruo and the other two and said, "Madam, please send someone to take us to the tunnel. I am going to bring three experts with me to meet the general."
Qing Ruo looked a little hesitant when she heard this, but she only thought for a moment and immediately asked Xiao Yao to lead the way for Wang Yueyao.
