Chapter 242 Searching for the Prison
Gu Wei almost forgot about this.
Hearing this, he was stunned for a moment, "Are you planning to go this year?"
Xie Ling nodded, "Once the appointment is made, nothing can stop us. Lu Wuji's uncle is a patient, so the sooner he goes, the better. I plan to go there after Paradise City is repaired. I just don't know if I can wait until my mother and uncle come. I still hope to see them in my heart."
Gu Wei lowered his eyes, his eyes full of reluctance, "I will go with you then."
Xie Ling shook her head. "I'll go by myself. When the Gu family arrives, you have to sort them out. Also, don't let the big plan slip."
The tone left no room for doubt.
Gu Wei knew that no one could change Xie Ling's decision, so he just sighed softly and pinched Xie Ling's face, "You haven't left yet, but I'm already missing you. What should I do?"
"Cold salad!"
Xie Ling then urged, "Hurry up, I'm a little hungry. Go back and cook noodles for me. I want noodles with scallion oil today. Have you learned the recipe I gave you?"
Hearing this, Gu Wei's peach blossom eyes curved, "I've learned it. Whether it's plain noodles, mixed noodles, hot dry noodles... I can make them all! I guarantee my wife will never want to leave after eating them."
He paused and spoke in a mischievous tone, like a cunning fox.
"If you eat the noodles I cooked, you have to let me kiss you a hundred times."
Xie Ling shook her head: "It's not worth it, I'll just kiss you ten times."
"Fifty."
"Twenty deal. Otherwise I won't eat."
"Okay, okay, little ancestor."
Gu Wei's voice was gentle.
The two figures disappeared in the moonlight.
That night, in the bedroom, on the bed.
Xie Ling blushed.
The voice was somewhat panicked.
"Where are you kissing?"
The corners of Gu Wei's eyes turned slightly red, his long eyebrows seemed to be frowned, and his voice sounded aggrieved.
"If we can't consummate the marriage, can't we kiss each other? It's really difficult to hold it in until my wife reaches adulthood."
When a man acts coquettishly, a woman's soul will float away.
What’s more, he is such a stunning man.
Anyway, I didn’t lose anything and it was quite comfortable.
Xie Ling snorted softly and ignored it.
-
People in Lingnan found that the weather was getting cooler.
The sun is not as scorching and it is not as hot and humid at noon.
Xie Ling went to deliver sweet soup for the last time today.
The people who often guarded the military settlement have had a much better relationship with the Sinan soldiers since they came to the Sinan military camp last time and had a wild boar banquet.
Later, Xie Ling went to the salt field to deliver sugar water, and the soldiers who were guarding the field all looked at her eagerly.
Xie Ling felt embarrassed to see it, so she would occasionally bring some to the soldiers on duty.
As soon as the soldiers saw Xie Ling, they praised her to the highest heavens.
What fairy descended to earth, so beautiful that fishes and geese could sink to the depths, and the moon and flowers could be ashamed...
The soldiers, who normally could not read a single word, could speak these idioms more fluently than the other.
After Gu Wei knew about this, he often came to the salt field, under the pretext of testing the soldiers' training results.
In fact, they were severely tortured.
It is common to run around the mountain dozens of times or practice military boxing for a whole night.
It was noon, and the wind blew across my cheeks, bringing a moist scent of the sea.
Xie Ling thought that today was the last time, so she fried a bucket of crispy pork with the leftover wild boar meat. After sprinkling it with spiced chili powder, the color of golden and bright red intertwined, and it was fresh, fragrant and spicy, which looked extremely appetizing.
As expected, as soon as it was laid out, the soldiers rushed in and snatched everything away, leaving not a single crumb.
The soldiers were still hungry after finishing the meal, which was mainly due to the five-spice chili powder.
A soldier asked boldly.
"Thank you, Master. What did you put here? It tastes similar to dogwood, but much more fragrant."
"Yes, yes, I think this red powder is delicious even when mixed with shoe soles."
Chili peppers were not yet widely available in this dynasty, and Xie Ling planned to cultivate them well and sell them as a "secret weapon", so he just laughed it off.
Seeing that the soldiers were still eating, Xie Ling said to Gao Wanhua beside her: "You play here, I'll go to the beach to take a look."
Gao Wanhua was playing mahjong with the soldiers enthusiastically, and it was unknown whether she heard it or not, but she waved to Xie Ling.
She smiled brightly and said loudly:
"Hey! I won again, Xu Laosi, give me some money!"
The young man next to him had a sad face and took out five cents from his pocket.
The soldier behind him pushed him hard, "Hurry up, hurry up, change people, it's my turn."
A group of people crowded around the base of the tree, craning their necks to look inside.
Leaf cards are a favorite toy among the noble ladies in Beijing.
The last time Shi Shaowen went out with his father to buy grain seeds, he somehow got a pair and gave it to Gao Wanhua.
If he knew that Gao Wanhua was holding card games and playing with this group of soldiers every day, he would definitely be furious.
The main reason why Gao Wanhua plays with this group of soldiers is that they are stupid!
How could a group of greenhorn card players possibly beat Gao Wanhua, a veteran?
You know, before exile, Gao Wanhua's family worked in the Ministry of Households.
She started to use an abacus at the age of three, and she was very good at playing with coins, leaves, and cards.
Every time he followed Xie Ling to deliver sweet soup, he made a lot of money and went back with a bulging pocket.
Shu Jian held the sword and joked, "Gao Wanhua, aren't you afraid that I will tell Shi Shaowen?"
Gao Wanhua stared at the cards with an indifferent look on her face. She raised her pretty eyebrows and made a face at Shujian.
"Sue him, do you think he dares to control me?"
Shujian was helpless and smiled with his hand on his forehead.
the other side.
Xie Ling walked along the beach several times. She wanted to find the place where Wang Shouyi imprisoned the prisoners.
Since Wang Shouyi was able to hide all the prisoners within one day, it means that the prison is not far away. It is near the salt field, maybe underground or in a nearby cave.
Therefore, Xie Ling focused her attention on this.
These prisoners are all familiar with the work in the salt fields. When the time comes, they can be paid monthly wages based on their work intensity to motivate their enthusiasm and they will become perfect salt workers.
The Changshou Salt Field is so big that we can’t let it go to waste.
Xie Ling wants to make more snow salt!
Just the little bit of snow salt I had before was sold for tens of thousands of taels. If I could produce it continuously, becoming the richest man would not be a dream!
We walked all the way around the beach, but saw nothing except salt workers and brine pools.
She did see a few stranded fish, and Xie Ling held them in her hands and carefully put them back into the sea.
Her calves were completely wet, and the hem of her skirt stuck to her calves. The cool breeze blew past, making her feel cold.
Xie Ling walked as if she was taking a stroll, looking at the scenery in the distance.
The warm sunlight hits the sea, creating sparkling waves.
The sea and the sky meet, with pure white and azure blue interwoven, as transparent as a glass ball.
The sea breeze stirs up shallow waves, which hit the clean beach, which is very healing.
Such a blue sea and clean beach will never be found in the end times.
Take a deep breath of air, the salty taste seeps into your lungs, bringing an indescribable sense of refreshment to your body.
I was almost at the end of the beach, but still didn't see anything unusual.
Xie Ling cursed Wang Shouyi inwardly as an old fox, turned around a reef, and suddenly her eyes lit up.
There is a huge cliff in front, about one or two hundred meters high. The waves are very rough, and the reefs at the bottom of the cliff are sharp and cone-shaped, like swords pointing into the sky.
Behind the cliff is a towering green mountain.
Mountain?
Xie Ling narrowed her eyes and used her special powers to quickly move over.
When passing over the reef bottom, Xie Ling found that the tops of several sharp reefs were gone. Only the bare bottom of the reef was left, as if it had been plucked out of thin air.
There were also obvious signs of trampling on the cliff, and the moss in several places had been trampled off.
Is there anyone else looking for the criminal? Who is it?
Xie Ling was careful and adjusted the position of the Emei spike on her hair bun to make sure she could get it immediately before flying onto the cliff.
