Chapter 123

  What are you afraid of as an invisible cannon fodder?

  Little Phoenix Maiden will answer you: What's there to be afraid of!

  Anyway, the worst result is being cannon fodder, so let's just enjoy ourselves before becoming cannon fodder.

  Jiang Ping looked at Liu Mei's very professional appearance and couldn't help but ask: "Sister, do you understand the Eight Trigrams of Qimen?"

  Lu Xiaofeng replied bluntly: "I don't understand."

  "How dare you knock around like this?"

  "Because I'm not afraid of death."

  Jiang Ping: "......"

  Zhan Zhao: "......"

  Someone on the side said: "This wall sounds hollow when you tap it."

  Zhan Zhao said: "It is hollow."

  Lu Xiaofeng was surprised, "How did you know?"

  "Because all four walls can move."

  Xiao Feng's daughter then "cut" a sound, honestly retracted her own small knife, and let it return to the waist as an ornament.

  Lu Xiaofeng looked around the stone room that could disappear at any moment within these four walls, then beckoned to his own little cat, "Xiao Mao, come here."

  Zhan Zhao walked over.

  Sit.

  Zhan Zhao sat down in the place she specified.

  Lu Xiaofeng also sat down and leaned against his leg, closed his eyes and said: "I'm tired after messing around all day, I'm going to sleep."

  Jiang Ping watched as Zhan Zhao executed each of Liu Mei's commands with precision, stroking his chin and sighing: "Southern Hero Zhan Zhao, alas, if someone were to see the current state of the Imperial Cat, they would probably think their own eyes had gone bad."

  "Sixth Sister, actually, it wasn't someone from this building who gave the gu to Zhan Zhao, but you, right?"

  Little Phoenix Maiden readily pleaded guilty, saying: "Yes, I gave Xiao Mao the Infatuated Insect, which makes him deeply in love with me alone and obedient to my every command."

  Jiang Ping: "...", it's really impossible to tease her anymore, Liu Mei's face is truly too thick!

  Zhan Zhao lowered his head and smiled as he looked at the person lying on his lap, reaching out to touch her temples, saying nothing.

  "Zhan Zhao, you've already spoiled her."

  "It doesn't matter."

  "Huh?"

  "It's reassuring when I'm the only one who can accept it."

  Jiang Ping shook his head, indeed what pot matches what lid, it's destined.

  "Zhan Zhao, now Liu Mei has also been caught and brought in, aren't you worried?"

  Zhan Zhao looked at the person on his leg and said in a light but firm tone: "As long as I'm here, nothing will happen to her."

  Jiang Ping nodded in approval, this is what a real man should be responsible for, Liu Mei didn't choose the wrong person.

  But unexpectedly, the person who was resting on Zhan Zhao's leg with their eyes closed spoke up and said: "However, isn't it because of you that I got kidnapped and held as a hostage?"

  Jiang Ping: Too sharp, and it also ruins the atmosphere.

  Zhan Zhao smiled and asked her: "Then what do you think?"

  The little phoenix girl opened her eyes and smiled brightly at him, grasping his hand tightly, and said seriously: "I still thank heaven for letting me meet you and become your wife."

  Zhan Zhao's smile revealed his tenderness without any reserve.

  Unfortunately, the next moment, Little Phoenix said in a very atmosphere-destroying tone: "Alright, stop being mushy with me, I'm really sleepy and want to sleep."

  Jiang Ping couldn't help but rub his temples, this really didn't seem like a girl's home!

  "Zhan Zhao, Fourth Brother, I suddenly feel sorry for you. Marrying her to you seems like we five rats are seeking revenge."

  Zhan Zhao said: "It can't be said like this, when a mouse marries off his daughter, it's actually the cat who gains an advantage."

  Up until this moment, Jiang Ping couldn't help but start to doubt whether the person in front of him was really the Nanxia Zhan Zhao that they knew.

  Sixth sister, how exactly did you harm Zhan Zhao? Although this cat in front of me looks more pleasing to the eye, it still can't deny the fact that you harmed someone.

  It's not that Zhan Zhao has become bad, but rather the humorous cells hidden in his body have been developed by Xiao Feng.

  Husband and wife are originally mutually influencing each other in a subtle way, it just depends on which side has the stronger influence - obviously Little Phoenix's intensity is quite impressive.

  Zhan Zhao took off his own outer garment and covered his wife with it, to prevent her from catching cold.

  "They must have found the temporary hiding place of Liu Mei, and Big Brother and others must have been tricked into leaving. Otherwise, with their skills, Liu Mei shouldn't have fallen into their hands."

  Zhan Zhao nodded, he had also thought of this, but didn't know how anxious the people outside were now.

  Actually, Nan Xia was just overthinking things.

  It's true that I'm not in a hurry outside, but I really don't have much of a sense of urgency either. At least it doesn't reach the point where I get anxious or flustered.

  "If it weren't for Sixth Sister forbidding me from acting, I would never have let someone take her away from in front of my eyes." Bai Yutang was extremely angry.

  Gongsun Ce said: "Miss Lu is doing this, there must be a reason for her to do so, don't blame yourself, Bai Daxia."

  "What should we do now? The gold seal of Lord Bao is nowhere to be found, and it's difficult to gather evidence against the King of Xiangyang. If he were to submit another memorial, even Lord Bao might not be able to avoid punishment." Even just going through the motions was necessary at this point.

  This is indeed their top priority at present.

  In comparison, Little Phoenix was not in such a hurry after being kidnapped and held as a hostage.

  A hostage is actually safe as long as her utility value has not disappeared.

  Lu Xiaofeng's identity can be fully revealed when necessary, and its value will only increase, not decrease, so everyone is indeed not in a hurry.

  Little Phoenix said bluntly that it's just a big piece of fatty meat, with too much oil and water, and in the end, it might still leave people feeling greasy.

  On the other hand, Xiangyang Wang maliciously let someone reveal to the people of Kaifeng Prefecture where the golden seal was located - a cold and bone-piercing, goose-hair-sinking inverted icy pool.

  Without the water expert Jiang Ping, King Xiangyang thought that Bao Zheng and others would definitely be at a loss.

  Xiangyang Wang even shared this news with the three people trapped in Chongxiang Building.

  Of course, the message was not spoken by Xiangyang Wang himself, but rather conveyed through the four-sided echo method by that person in the building.

  Xiao Feng said with a hint of distress: "Zhan Xiao Mao, what should we do?"

  Zhan Zhao comforted her, "Don't worry, the adults will be fine."

  Little Phoenix shook her head, "I didn't mean that."

  Zhan Zhao didn't understand, "What...?" What are you talking about?

  Little Phoenix Maiden still had that worried expression, "As soon as I heard that person speaking in this four-sided echo way, I had an irresistible urge to decipher it, this is my obsessive-compulsive disorder, whenever I encounter such strange things, I always want to find its scientific and rational place, what to do?"

  The person in charge of the control room has a weird face... What kind of woman is this? And she's also got OCD?

  Zhan Zhao was really at a loss for words, "Xiao Feng——" Are you doing it on purpose? Or are you doing it on purpose?

  "I'm not joking, I really have a tendency towards OCD. It's probably also a kind of occupational disease."

  Zhan Zhao thought of what she had said before, that as soon as she put on the official uniform, it was like a ghost possessed her body, and she couldn't help but smile wryly. This was probably what she meant by compulsive disorder.

  "I'll continue exploring, you come with me."

  "You can't go out." Zhan Zhao told her the cruel truth in a simple and sincere manner.

  Little Phoenix Maiden said carelessly: "Going out is the same as being in here, you want to protect me by my side, just in case there's a hidden projectile coming out, help me block it."

  "Good."

  Jiang Ping couldn't help but interrupt, "Sixth sister, you're not going to cause trouble here, are you? This is all government offices."

  The little phoenix girl pointed to the stone wall with a straight face and said, "But that person used four-sided echoes to tease me, my obsessive-compulsive disorder came up and I couldn't control myself, okay?"

  ……

  This time, Xiaofeng changed her tool and replaced it with a slightly larger dagger, which was the one that Xizhao accompanied her to buy when they watched the arena in Songjiang Prefecture.

  Jiang Ping watched as his sixth sister crept along the floor, inch by inch, tapping, pricking and pounding...

  For Little Phoenix's childish behavior, the chief designer of Chong Xiao Lou snorted in disdain. His mechanism messages were unparalleled in the world, and it was not something that this woman could easily decipher.

  So he held in his temper and waited to see what Xiao Feng would come up with.

  As a result, Little Phoenix really did find something as he had hoped.

  It was a small, square wooden box in an inconspicuous corner, next to the toilet, which is really a place that ordinary people wouldn't pay attention to.

  However, as a loyal fan of the classic novel, Xiaofeng remembered vividly the tunnel dug by Jiang Yulang in the toilet at Xiao Mimi's place in "The Legendary Twins", which is why she noticed this.

  What to do if you find the mechanism?

  Nonsense, of course it's ruined.

  No matter whether you are gold, silver, copper, iron, wood or stone, all must be completely destroyed.

  And Little Phoenix's dagger is so powerful, destroying it would be too easy, right?

  After watching Liu Mei destroy the mechanism, Jiang Ping said with a worried tone: "Liu Mei, if this is the mechanism to open this stone room, will we be able to get out after you've destroyed it?"

  "Oh no, Fourth Brother, why didn't you say so earlier?"

  Jiang Ping covered his face, "Sixth sister——"

  Zhan Zhao shook his head and said bluntly, "Brother Jiang is probably too invested."

  Is this really true?

  At this time, the people in the government office were also shocked and lost their color.

  Because Little Phoenix Maiden destroyed the mechanism that connected the stone room to the water tank, the river water poured in at a speed that was beyond human reaction.

  Xiao Feng was protected by Zhan Zhao at the first moment, but she also received disdain at the same time. "Zhan Xiaomao, why do you only protect me like a duck?"

  Zhan Zhao: "......"

  At the moment when she was overwhelmed by the flood, Little Phoenix directly kissed her own cat's lips, actually to save her breath.

  Jiang Ping, who is excellent in swimming, and Xiaofeng, who is also good at swimming, are the two people who survived this flood, which is a matter of course.

  They followed the water flow out of Chongxiang Building, of course, there were obstacles along the way, but Xiaofeng had a divine weapon in her hand, and she grasped it tightly, directly cutting off the steel fence.

  They were saved!

  This way of escaping into heaven is still quite awkward.

  Life is really full of ups and downs, leaving one speechless...
