Chapter 193 A Hair

Tian Mi looked at Cheng Jiao's familiar eyes and her body trembled. This had happened several times and she was afraid that Cheng Jiao was still not satisfied.

"Sir, it's getting dark now, don't..."

After feeling comfortable, Cheng Jiao's spiritual state is infinitely close to that of a sage.

He snorted, "It's almost dark, isn't it? You look so scared, do you really think I'm so greedy for your body?"

Tian Mi felt a little contempt for Cheng Jiao. She said she was not greedy, but why did she hold him tightly and not let go? He looked like he would not stop until he killed her. Now he said he was not greedy? Haha, stinky man!
"That's what the young master said."

No matter how much she despised him in her heart, Tian Mi still had to flatter Cheng Jiao on the surface. Cheng Jiao had just used a mysterious technique to increase her internal strength, and she was lucky enough to comprehend an inexplicable state of mind, which made her feel very good. Even though she felt uncomfortable all over, inside and out, and even after the internal strength was relieved, she still felt a little pain, Tian Mi didn't care.

She has always believed that a woman's body is her capital, and it is normal to use it to get what she wants. She dresses herself up beautifully, spending countless efforts to decorate herself and make herself more attractive to men. Is it just for looking in the mirror?
Cheng Jiao looked at Tian Mi's silly smile and patted her pretty face again.

"What are you thinking about? Hurry up and dress me."

Compared to being with Tian Mi, he was more looking forward to having a romantic conversation with the giant salamander tonight.

In his eyes, the woman who loves him wholeheartedly is more worthy of his attention. As for Tian Mi, she is just a tool he uses to infiltrate the farmers' family and play the Qin Shi Jiu Ge card collection game. How can she be compared with Jing Wei?

Tian Mi's face flushed after being slapped by Cheng Jiao, and it was obvious that Cheng Jiao had hit her hard. If she had not just been strengthened by Cheng Jiao, and had not been attacked continuously by Cheng Jiao for more than an hour, she would not have had the strength to support her to make any extra movements.

She knelt on the bed and suddenly felt like a maid and a slave. She was free and did whatever she wanted not long ago, and even fought dogs for fun when she was in a bad mood. Who would have known that in less than a month, she would become like this. As the old saying goes, she really lived the life of a dog.

Cheng Jiao looked at Tian Mi's charming body, which was indeed very attractive and suitable for him to change his taste occasionally and have a snack.

Tian Mi gritted her teeth secretly. In order to change clothes for Cheng Jiao, she didn't even bother to put on her own clothes. Cheng Jiao's eyes, as if looking at a commodity, made her feel deeply humiliated again. It was even stronger than before when Cheng Jiao and Situ Wanli treated her as a slave in the human market and traded with her at will.

Cheng Jiao quickly adjusted the clothes that Tian Mi had put on him, and picked up the pink and purple robe that Tian Mi was wearing on the ground and threw it on Tian Mi.

"Listen to me, do your job well, and I will reward you handsomely."

Tian Mi pursed her lips: "Tian Mi knows."

Cheng Jiao smiled and touched Tian Mi's little head as she knelt on the bed, "Very good."

After saying that, Cheng Jiao gently whistled the little tune he had learned from Li Wu and left in a happy mood.

After watching Cheng Jiao leave, Tian Mi fell softly on the bed, looking at the ceiling and the dusk outside the window. She took a few deep breaths, half-closed her eyes, and seemed to be half asleep.

After a long time, she dragged her somewhat exhausted body out of bed, wiping her pretty face and body that were made dirty by Cheng Jiao. After putting on her clothes, she regained her previous appearance, walked with a more charming gait than before, and walked outside the house, with a slightly domineering and overbearing attitude, asking the servants of the teahouse to prepare hot water for bathing, so that she could take a good bath.

Outside a small town not far from the Korean border, Bai Feng stood on a newly replaced carriage, holding a white feather with a hint of blood in his hand.

This was the third spy he had dealt with, one less than Mo Ya.

Hundreds of mysterious people wearing straw raincoats and hats appeared on the official road in the dense forest.

Li Wu had a very strong mental strength, so he could naturally sense the group of people with murderous intent hanging behind the convoy.

Mo Ya said softly, "These are the men of the Raincoat Man."

As the leader of the Hundred Birds Killer Group, he naturally had some dealings with the spies under the Straw Cloak Man.

Li Wu remained calm: "I have sensed it. There are a total of 139 people, and only one first-rate master. The Corpse Exorcist, the Hundred Poison King, Wushuang and Baifeng are staying to block the road. The convoy cannot stop!"

The corpse-driving demon sitting next to the driver of Qi Jue Tang stretched his waist and said, "King of Hundred Poisons, get up and work."

Yan Lingji ordered Wushuang, who was running beside the carriage, "Listen to Li Wu's words."

Wushuang stopped running and patted his bald head. Aren't there four people? Where is the little white bird?
The King of Hundred Poisons crushed a few poison pills, and the poisonous gas spread silently around. When Li Wu gave the order, the relevant antidotes had already been prepared and handed to Bai Feng the Corpse Exorcist and Wushuang.

The corpse-driving demon found a big tree to lean against and waited quietly. Wushuanggui punched him with his fists for a few times. He hadn't fought for a long time, so he wanted to have a good fight.

The mysterious man wearing a straw raincoat and hat, who was suspected to be the leader, stopped and looked at the three people in front of him, knowing that his whereabouts had been exposed.

He was a close confidant of the Straw-Cloaked Man. After receiving the order from the Straw-Cloaked Man, he gathered spies from several surrounding cities and some bird killers to chase and kill him.

Without any nonsense, the sound of arrows rustling and fists hitting flesh could be heard in the dense forest.

Wushuang punched each arrow one by one. He was wearing armor specially made for him by Cheng Jiao to protect his vulnerable parts. The arrows that hit him were no different from mosquito bites.

The corpse-driving demon rang the soul-calling bell, causing the dead spies to come back to life and pounce on them.

The King of Hundred Poisons sighed, "I, an old man, just want to spend my old age in peace. Isn't it good to live a peaceful life?"

After he finished speaking, the thin poisonous fog that was originally almost imperceptible around the dense forest became thick in the blink of an eye. A black shadow flashed in it, and screams were heard from time to time.

This is the most powerful poison that he had thoroughly controlled and refined before leaving - the red-bellied king cobra. After being used with his secret method, it would pose a great threat to first-rate masters.

The mysterious leader's face changed slightly. He didn't expect that Tianze's Corpse Exorcist and the Hundred Poison King would be here. He quickly used the detoxification pills and performed breathing exercises to control his breathing and prevent poisoning.

However, before he could make any move, a flash of white flashed to his side, causing his pupils to shrink. He had not noticed this fourth person, and he was so close to him, and his first move was a fatal blow.

Just as he was about to block, the white figure suddenly turned into two, catching the mysterious leader off guard.

This was exactly the Six Illusions of Phoenix Dance that Bai Feng had practiced by accident. Unfortunately, with his current strength, he could only create an illusion.

When the mysterious leader was concentrating on resisting the phantom of Bai Feng, a silver light flashed from his throat under his jaw, and blood spurted out.

The next moment, Bai Feng stood at the place where the mysterious leader's body lay, holding his hidden weapon, the feather blade, between his fingers, and combined with the Six Illusions of Feng Wu, it was impossible to defend against him.

"The fourth one, Mo Ya, I've caught up with you."

As the sun sets, a sudden noise is heard in the dense forest, and then suddenly disappears. Only the sound of Wushuang's running can be clearly heard.

Ji Wuye listened to the report from his subordinate Bainiao.

"Cheng Jiao went to Han Yu's teahouse this afternoon and didn't come out until just now. Tiger, can you tell me what happened?"

Emerald Tiger looked a little haggard, having lost a lot of weight in just two days. The nobles who joined the Jubao Pavilion blocked him every day, and he couldn't use Ji Wuye to suppress them, which made him almost dead with worry.

Hearing Ji Wuye's sudden question, Emerald Tiger stuttered a little: "General, although the tea house belongs to the fourth young master Han Yu, according to Tiger's observation, it has always been run by Situ Wanli of Qianlong Hall in the city." The Blood-Robed Marquis' eyes flashed, and he suddenly remembered something.

After hearing what Emerald Tiger said, Ji Wuye slammed the table and chairs hard.

"Sure enough, the farmers are involved. The one who took us for a walk outside the city yesterday afternoon must be someone from the farmers' family!"

Jade Tiger shrank his fat neck. Ji Wuye had been more irritable and moody these days than usual. Many servants had died in the general's mansion. He was afraid that if he was not careful, Ji Wuye would throw him out to silence those nobles.

Marquis Xueyi frowned. The involvement of the Nong family made the situation more complicated. Also, the Yin-Yang family that Cheng Jiao had imprisoned before gave him a bad feeling.

Cheng Jiao didn’t know and couldn’t see Ji Wuye’s helpless rage, otherwise he would have to move a small stool and eat melon seeds to appreciate Ji Ni Taimei who was teased by him.

After leaving the teahouse, Cheng Jiao originally planned to return to Zilanxuan quickly, but the thought of Zinu's sharp observation made him a little scared. After thinking about it, he had a meal at the restaurant next to the teahouse, and then walked to Zilanxuan leisurely to digest the food after the meal.

Zi Nu stood by the window with her arms folded across her chest. She saw Cheng Jiao slowly walking up to Zi Lan Xuan. She smiled lightly, walked slowly down the stairs, and stood in the middle of the stairs, smiling at Cheng Jiao who had just entered.

Cheng Jiao walked up to Zi Nu with a smile and put his arms around her waist skillfully.

"How's it going? Nothing to do this afternoon?"

Zi Nu shook her head. "Han Fei and Zhang Liang discussed for the whole afternoon. I felt bored, so I came out to get some fresh air. What about you? What does Nongjia Situ Wanli want to talk to you about?"

Cheng Jiao couldn't help feeling a little proud when he saw that Zi Nu didn't notice anything wrong with him.

"It's nothing. The treasure that Tianze robbed was more than we thought, a full 43,000 pieces."

Zi Nu said with some distress: "So many? More than 10,000 gold coins."

She worked hard to run Zi Lan Xuan, but at the end of the year, even on a good day, she could only make three to four thousand gold coins.

Cheng Jiao shook his head: "How can it be perfect? ​​Didn't Liu Yi leave those 50,000 gold coins for you? Why do you feel bad about it?"

As they talked, they walked to the private room for meetings.

Han Fei and Zhang Liang were drinking alone when they saw Cheng Jiao and Zi Nu come in.

"Master Cheng Jiao, where is Situ Wanli?"

Zi Nu helped Cheng Jiao to briefly explain what happened.

Han Fei felt a little regretful: "More than 10,000 gold coins, enough to hold several state banquets." His father's birthday banquet was coming soon, and he had some ideas. He wanted to take this opportunity to hold a bigger birthday banquet and contact the two countries of Zhao and Wei.

Since Cheng Jiao left, Jingwei had been sitting there practicing with his eyes closed. He only slowly opened his eyes after Cheng Jiao came in, and he and Cheng Jiao looked at each other in a tacit understanding.

Cheng Jiao glanced around the room and found that Wei Zhuang, who had been serving as a background figure, was not there.

"Where's Brother Wei Zhuang?"

Zi Nu brewed a cup of tea and handed it to Cheng Jiao, "Nightfall's Hundred Bird Killer attacked Qi Jue Hall, and Wei Zhuang went there not long ago."

Cheng Jiao blew on the hot tea and said, "This is revenge. Zi Nu, send 1,000 gold coins to Boss Tang tomorrow. Boss Tang is a good person. He helped us so much this time and took the blame. We can't treat him unfairly."

Zi Nu smiled and said, "Wei Zhuang has exempted Qi Jue Tang from paying tribute for three months."

Cheng Jiao shook his head, wondering how this descendant of Guiguzi ended up collecting protection fees.

But it's normal, this is the logic of this world. The weak who are protected always need to provide something to the strong. Whether it's Han paying tribute to Qin, or Qi Jue Tang paying tribute to Liusha.

Just as Cheng Jiao and Zi Nu were talking about Wei Zhuang, Wei Zhuang stepped into the house from the French window. His clothes were stained with blood, some from the enemy and some from himself. Although Wei Zhuang looked calm, it was obvious that the battle was fierce.

"I got the news from Tang Qi that Ji Wuye ordered Bai Niao to control the underground gangs in Xinzheng, and to directly wipe out the gangs that did not join Bai Niao."

Cheng Jiao smacked his lips. Well, Ji Wuye has also fallen to the point of collecting protection fees?

Zi Nu frowned and asked, "Ji Wuye is making such a big fuss, is he planning to take action against Liusha?"

Han Fei stood up and said, "Night has already started to attack the quicksand, and now it seems to be preparing to erode the quicksand bit by bit. Zifang, take me to see the Prime Minister."

Zhang Liang was a little confused as to why Han Fei went to see his grandfather, but he still followed Han Fei out of the room.

"Brother, what is this?"

Han Fei whispered, "The day after tomorrow, the Qin envoy will arrive in Xinzheng. He has ill intentions and will definitely force Han in the court. I want to reach some agreement with the Prime Minister first so that the Prime Minister can support me in the court."

Zhang Liang hesitated: "Brother, my grandfather has always advocated peaceful coexistence with Qin. I'm afraid he won't speak up easily."

Han Fei was very calm: "My Lord Prime Minister will, unless you really want Korea to be doomed."

Zhang Liang said no more. He knew Han Fei's character. He would not speak easily about things he was not sure about, unless it was for drinking and fun.

Han Fei and Zhang Liang left, and Wei Zhuang went to another room to heal his wounds.

Cheng Jiao let go immediately, hugged Jingwei on his left and Zinu on his right, and let Yingge massage his shoulders and back from behind, feeling very comfortable.

Jingwei doted on Cheng Jiao very much. Zi Nu pinched some cakes and fed them to Cheng Jiao. She naturally picked up the tea of ​​suitable temperature and fed it to Cheng Jiao, which made Cheng Jiao feel so happy that he was bubbling with joy.

However, before he could feel proud for long, Cheng Jiao saw an extra strand of hair in Zi Nu's hand and had a bad feeling.

Zi Nu looked at the hair taken from Cheng Jiao. It was obviously from a woman. She looked at Cheng Jiao with her beautiful eyes.

"Tell me, who does this belong to?"

Cheng Jiao pretended to be dumbfounded: "Whose is it? I don't know!"

Zi Nu sighed softly: "Pinkish purple hair, if I remember correctly, when Situ Wanli came to visit you at Zi Lan Xuan that day, he was accompanied by a girl who looked similar to Nanyue, with pinkish purple hair. The length was also similar to this hair. Today you said that you received a letter from Situ Wanli, and you went to the teahouse for an afternoon and did not come back until the evening, which shows..."

Jingwei pursed her lips. She knew what Cheng Jiao was going to do in the afternoon. She didn't expect that even if she didn't say it, Zi Nu still discovered the flaw that Cheng Jiao inadvertently revealed.

Cheng Jiao was somewhat amazed at Zi Nu's observation ability. It was just a strand of hair.
