Chapter 144 Beiling
Su Chengnan leaned forward a bit and said, "Okay."
"Finally arrived at Beiling? Let me take a look!"
"Finally, I landed safely. It wasn't easy." Su Linhua's eyes flashed, and she couldn't help but hum a little tune as she stood up.
"Yes! I will go downstairs to prepare first. Please wait for a moment, ladies."
"No need." Su Linhua said carelessly.
"Second Miss, although Beiling is remote, it is also the royal residence. News spreads quickly. We should..."
Nian Qiu only said half of her words, and Su Chengnan said the rest for her, "We will be careful with our words and actions, thank you."
Nian Qiu hurriedly lowered his head, not daring to say anything more, and quickly bowed and retreated.
Su Chengnan took advantage of the swinging curtain to take a quick look. Beiling seemed completely different from what she had imagined.
Something is wrong. Why is this place heavily guarded?
She winked at Su Linhua and quickly diverted her attention to the other world to look for Su Weimin.
"Dad!"
"Dad? Where are you?"
Su Chengnan called out several times but didn't see him come out. She felt a little strange, so she walked through the booth corridor and went to the field.
"father?"
"I'm here!"
Su Weimin held a piece of baked potato in his hand, with residue at the corners of his mouth. Even when he was talking to her, he kept wanting to take a few more bites.
"Nan girl, these potatoes are delicious!"
"It's so fragrant and soft, and very filling! And it's very easy to store! This is simply a divine product!"
"Dad, can you still taste it now? Are you sure you can eat it?" She pointed at him in disbelief and asked.
Su Weimin's expression changed. "Just follow my lead! I just enjoy eating, is that not okay?! I'm just entertaining myself!"
"Okay, okay, as long as you're happy!"
Su Chengnan nodded and quickly told him the business.
"We've arrived at Beiling, but there are heavy troops here."
"Beiling is the royal mausoleum after all! It's not surprising to see soldiers there. Why are you acting like you're facing a formidable enemy?"
Su Chengnan couldn't help but think of the oval face of the young girl and the bow and arrow she carried. She asked seriously, "How many soldiers usually guard the mausoleum?"
"Let me think about it." Su Weimin put down the potato, patted the dust off his hands and said, "It should be a hundred people. Unless there are special circumstances, the number may increase or decrease. Otherwise, it will be this many people."
"Wearing armor and holding weapons?"
"correct."
"Will the chariots come out too?"
"Ah?" Su Weimin was stunned for a moment, and his expression instantly became serious.
"Nope."
"So I feel like something's wrong."
The two looked at each other in bewilderment.
Su Weimin became even more anxious than she was, and kept urging her, "Go out and take a look first. If you find anything, come back and tell me. There's an abandoned old road in the back mountain of Beiling that leads directly to Lanling Country."
Lan Ling Country?
Su Chengnan bit her lip subconsciously.
She had the impression that the people in this place lived like a tribe. They had their own totems, believed in gods, and were skilled at raising poisonous insects! It was clearly located in the north, but it felt a bit like the tribes in the southern swamps in TV dramas. It was strange.
Su Chengnan wasted no time and rushed out and back into the space. Su Linhua looked over eagerly and shook her head slightly, and the atmosphere became solemn.
"It's okay, let's go together." Su Linhua pulled the corners of her mouth and forced herself to cheer herself up.
Su Chengnan smiled broadly, "Yes! Together, we are invincible!"
The two of them straightened each other's clothes.
There was a sound of footsteps.
Lu Chaofeng came over.
"Miss Su, we're here."
"It's safe."
Su Chengnan lowered his head and blinked, paused for two seconds, then raised his eyelids, revealing a very beautiful smiling face, and lifted the car curtain.
The people outside obviously stopped breathing.
"Nian Qiu." She called softly.
"Yes, Miss." Nian Qiu gently raised her arm so that Su Chengnan could help her walk down.
She moved lightly and stood firm with a dignified posture, smiling at Lu Chaofeng again, and the people around him couldn't help it.
"who are you?"
"Brother Feng, who is she?!"
The young girl became excited and she grabbed Lu Chaofeng's sleeve and shook it wildly.
Lu Chaofeng pulled his arm away helplessly. "This is my distinguished guest. She saved many lives in the other courtyard and has worked with me on many occasions. Feng Ling, you must not be rude!"
Distinguished guest?
Su Chengnan raised his eyebrows as he looked at Lu Chaofeng, and glanced at Feng Ling, only to see that she was investigating carefully.
Lu Chaofeng looked back calmly, the atmosphere was ambiguous.
"Prince Lu, since you have a beautiful woman by your side, we won't bother you any more. Could you please allow us to set off directly?"
"No."
"Then we dare not stay for long. We might be shot by another sharp arrow at any moment, and then we'll be dead."
Su Linhua was sharp-tongued and merciless. She stared at Feng Ling to see what she would say.
Feng Ling bared his teeth and claws, raised his head nonchalantly, glanced at Su Chengnan, then glared back at Su Linhua without saying a word of explanation or apology.
"Wind spirit!"
"I calculated the distance! I didn't really want to kill them, I just wanted to scare them."
"Apologize."
"Why? They even rode in the carriage of your deceased prince's consort. Did they apologize?"
Su Chengnan looked at Lu Chaofeng and saw that although he was angry, he still looked helpless and doting. He couldn't help but move his gaze down to Feng Ling's face.
She curled her lips slightly, moved her feet, and walked in front of her.
"You want to kill me?"
"I..." Feng Ling didn't expect that this seemingly frail woman would actually dare to come over and question her?!
"Do you want to kill me?" Su Chengnan gradually raised his voice.
"Yes!"
"why?"
Feng Ling's face suddenly turned red, and after her eyes wandered for two seconds, she raised her head and said shyly, "Because of Brother Feng."
Su Chengnan took another step forward, "Is it really because of Lu Chaofeng? Not someone else?"
Feng Ling's eyes were the first to avoid it. She said unnaturally: "Who are you? I don't understand what you are saying."
"Miss, if you release my people, I will forgive you for shooting the arrow." Su Chengnan spoke each word steadily and powerfully.
Su Linhua's heart was pounding when she heard this!
Her sister is truly brave! Unarmed, yet she dares to challenge a young girl with such advanced martial arts skills?!
No! She had to quickly remind Bing San! If the situation wasn't right, forget about martial ethics and attack together!
She went to look for Bingsan's eyes, but found that he had already made preparations with the other secret guards, and even Yier had quietly sneaked up behind Feng Ling and was ready to take action at any time!
Feng Ling is quite interesting. She was threatened, but she blushed. What's going on?
"I won't let go."
"You're so capable, why don't you hit him a few times? I can go back and cause trouble for him, threaten him, and make him atone for you... how's the word, um, atone for your sins!"
Su Linhua's head was buzzing.
Who?
Who wants to release whom?
