Chapter 338: Chapter 338. Capturing Three Spies
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Yan Shikuan ignored the broken Second Brother and looked at the second floor.
Seeing that his younger brother had been thrown downstairs by Su Qing again, the boss was so angry that he threw Lu Xing aside and charged at Su Qing.
“Miss, be careful.”
Lu Xing hurriedly reminded Su Qing. He raised his knife and went over to help Su Qing, but he saw that she quickly dodged the dagger stabbed at her. She turned around and grabbed Boss’ wrist. He didn’t even see how she did it, but he saw that she subdued the foreign man.
“Thank you for your help.”
Lu Xing hurriedly cupped his fists and thanked Su Qing. He wiped the cold sweat off his forehead. He had thought that this girl would die!
“It’s fine.”
Su Qing said lightly. She glanced downstairs and met Yan Shikuan’s deep and cold eyes. Su Qing looked away expressionlessly and turned around to return to her room.
She didn’t want to interfere in the affairs of the government. She tried to live a peaceful life. She had just returned a favor to Lu Xing. Now that their commander was here, she did not need to interfere.
Yan Shikuan ordered his soldiers to tie up Second Brother, who had fallen and could not move and walked upstairs with swift and decisive steps.
“Commander, capture the three spies.”
Lu Xing dragged the eldest brother, who had been struck by Su Qing, to Yan Shikuan. The third brother was still rolling on the ground, howling like a wolf.
He was in so much pain that he wanted to die. Death was a relief for him as long as he could stop this endless itch.
“This subordinate was careless. He just swallowed a map.”
Lu Xing briefly explained what had happened to the commander and lowered his head to admit his mistake.
Yan Shikuan looked at him coldly, scaring Lu Xing so much that he didn’t dare to raise his head. Seeing that Lu Xing knew he was wrong, Yan Shikuan retracted his fierce aura and ordered his soldiers,
“Pinch open their mouths and see if there’s any poison?”
The soldier went over and pinched open the mouths of the three people, taking out the poison from the gaps between their teeth.
“Reporting to the commander, the poison has been found.”
The boss’s eyes were filled with despair. After being caught, he wanted to bite the poison in his teeth, but Su Qing immobilized him.
He cursed that poisonous woman in his heart. It was all her fault for ruining his plans.
Su Qing entered the room and took out a pen and paper. Although she had only glanced at the map, it was firmly engraved in her mind.
This was also a training program in her previous life, and she had a photographic memory.
Su Qing drew the map according to her memory. She also drew the important marks with a pen. After drawing, she realized that this was the city defense map.
Just as she was thinking about it, she heard someone knocking on the door.
Su Qing put the map into the system before opening the door. It was Yan Shikuan standing outside. He was tall and had a dignified appearance. The aura he gave off when he stood there without speaking was enough to give people a sense of oppression.
However, Su Qing didn’t care. She blocked the door and didn’t let Yan Shikuan in. She only asked him indifferently,
“What orders do you have, Commander?”
“Thank you for your help.”
Yan Shikuan looked at the woman in front of him. Her eyes were like a bottomless sea. She looked at him indifferently, without any fear of meeting a government official.
“No need to be so polite. This is what the citizens of Grand Xia should do.”
Su Qing shook her head. Her words were very generous, and it sounded like she was shouting a slogan.
“Good, Young Lady is so enlightened.”
Yan Shikuan nodded and praised her. Then, he changed the topic and asked,
“How did Young Lady discover that they were spies?”
Yan Shikuan looked at Su Qing sharply and asked suddenly.
“I didn’t find out that they were spies. That man was disrespectful to me, so 1 gave him a small punishment. I didn’t expect his two companions to come and find trouble with me, so I dealt with them together.”
Su Qing said it lightly, as she had dealt with three little bugs.
It must be known that Lu Xing and his two Warriors were no match for just the two of them. As a weak woman, she sounded very arrogant when she said this. However, this was her actual ability, and she was not bragging.
Yan Shikuan heard Su Qing’s arrogant words and raised his eyebrows slightly. That person almost skinned himself, and this was still a little punishment.
If this woman was an enemy, would she be the strongest opponent?
Yan Shikuan pondered for a moment before asking,
“Young Lady, why have you come to Jingshi Dao?”
“Settling down.”
Su Qing answered very quickly.
“Jingshi Dao is a bitter and cold place. The winter is long, and the cold wind is bone-piercing. Why doesn’t Young Lady find a place with beautiful mountains and rivers to settle down?”
Yan Shikuan looked at Su Qing sharply.
“Because of the drought in the beautiful mountains and rivers that you mentioned this year, and the rebellion of the earth dragons and the invasion of foreign enemies, they live in fear daily. Do you still think it’s good to think like this?”
Su Qing looked at Yan Shikuan calmly, her voice neither fast nor slow.
Just from her calmness and orderly questioning, it could be seen that this woman was not ordinary.
“If Young Lady wants to find a safe place, Jingshi Dao isn’t the best choice. The Xiongnu still intend to kill me, and the small countries nearby are also eyeing me covetously. If war breaks out, it will be the most dangerous place.”
Yan Shikuan looked at Su Qing sternly, warning her of the dangers of the Jingshi Dao.
“Thank you for your reminder, Sir. Jingshi Dao is my obsession.”
When Su Qing said this, there was a slight fluctuation in her indifferent eyes. She took a deep breath and smiled at Yan Shikuan.
“Alright, then, I won’t disturb you.”
Yan Shikuan saw a flash of sadness in Su Qing’s eyes as if she recalled something. This Jingshi Dao must have a special meaning to her.
“Official, take care.”
Su Qing nodded and closed the door under Shikuan’s gaze.
She did not hand over the city defense map but believed they could interrogate her. There was no need for her to show off and arouse suspicion.
Yan Shikuan had just ordered his men to take the dying Third Brother away when he suddenly jumped up and down the stairs.
“Catch him.”
There were also soldiers guarding downstairs. No. 3 jumped down and was immediately surrounded. However, he realized he was bent on death and did not want to escape.
Yan Shikuan looked up at Su Qing’s room door. This poison was truly terrifying. It made people wish they were dead.
Once again, he felt that if Su Qing were his enemy, she would be the most challenging opponent.
Moreover, he didn’t think he could capture her because he brought more soldiers.
Yan Shikuan had arrived in time because he had just returned from the restaurant to the camp. He had been stopped by a waiter when he passed by the courier station, so he had been able to arrive quickly.
After the soldiers left, the customers and the boss in the courier station heaved a sigh of relief. They looked up at Su Qing’s room and kept quiet out of fear. That little girl looked extremely beautiful but was a fiend that could not be provoked.
“Go and take hot water to that young lady.”
The innkeeper called the waiter over to instruct him. If he couldn’t serve this fiend well, did he still want to live?
Su Qing didn’t care about everyone’s fear of her. She went to bed early after taking a shower. She was very sleepy, but she couldn’t fall asleep no matter what.
“Xiao Qi.”
Su Qing habitually called out to Xiao Qi, but she didn’t get a response. Only then did she remember that she had left her in Mo City to protect her parents.
The following day, after Su Qing had finished washing up, she wanted to go downstairs for breakfast before going to Old Master Zhang’s house. She did not expect to meet a devilish face as soon as she went downstairs..
