Idle game leads to another world

Although it is somewhat far-fetched to start a full-scale war with Southern Xinjiang just because of twenty or so people from the Jianghu, this possibility cannot be ruled out. The mildest situation will greatly intensify the hostility between Central Plains and Southern Xinjiang.

So, who do you think will benefit the most from the hostility between Southern Xinjiang and Central Plains?

Naturally, it is the Western Regions and the North.

Southern Xinjiang and Central Plains just don't like each other, while the Western Regions and the North have recently shown very clear hostility. If Southern Xinjiang adds fuel to the fire and entangles the attention of the Central Plains Dynasty, it will be a good thing for both of them anyway.

But the people of Southern Xinjiang, especially those who know these things, are obviously unwilling to be used as targets, such as Ran Xiaoyi's Qingzhu Village.

Yang Yiyi realized that she seemed to have walked into a chessboard again without realizing it.

The cause and effect are sorted out, but there are still some things that are unclear.

So Yang Yiyi asked again:

"That's not right. Since you don't want things to get out of hand, why did you attack Wujiazhuang at night?"

Ran Xiaoyi crossed her arms and didn't seem to want to say anything:

"It has nothing to do with you, stop asking."

"..."

Yang Yiyi was just curious about this matter. Wujiazhuang was the real victim.

Wu Shaoyi had obviously talked to Ran Xiaoyi before, and she tried to smooth things over by explaining:

"Miss Ran Xiaoyi's sister Ran Xiaolan is a witch in Baofeng Village. I heard that she is doing a ritual to summon the mountain god recently, which requires a lot of high-quality spices. Ran Xiaoyi wanted to stop her, so she came to Wujiazhuang."

"For the lost ambergris?"

Wu Shaoyi shook his head:

"It was the agarwood stolen by Lady Qin."

Yang Yiyi then remembered that they had sent someone to Qin Yan's recuperation room. It turned out that the purpose was not to kill Qin Yan, but the agarwood she stole.

At this time, Qin Yan also said:

"My elder brother was taken away by Ran Xiaoyi's sister, and the agarwood was also taken from her sister by me. It should be a very important thing."

"Not only is it very important, it would not work without that agarwood."

Ran Xiaoyi was a little overwhelmed.

"But we later learned that her sister got other high-quality spices, and the effect of that agarwood was greatly reduced, which means that we went there in vain."

Yang Yiyi finally came to her senses after hearing this.

Oh, it turns out that it was something you two sisters did.

"What is your sister doing? Cooperating with people from the Western Regions? Why are you two sisters not in the same village?"

"I don't know what your sister is doing. She said she was offering sacrifices to the mountain god, but she found those weird-looking people from the Western Regions. She suddenly went to the Central Plains to look for spices, but I know that she will push Southern Xinjiang into the fire pit, and she can't let her continue to make mistakes anyway."

Speaking of her sister, Ran Xiaoyi's expression was very complicated.

There seems to be a story here, but Ran Xiaoyi didn't explain much.

As for the fact that the two sisters are not from the same village, it is because witchcraft is not a hereditary profession.

No one can say when a child with witchcraft qualifications will be born. One village may not have one for hundreds of years, while another village may have several.

In this case, the village without witchcraft will specially invite witchcraft to be the second in command.

Ran Xiaoyi and her sister were originally from Qingzhu Village. Her sister showed her ability as a witchcraft several years ago. Since Qingzhu Village still had witchcraft at that time and Baofeng Village was the largest village nearby, she was forced to leave by Baofeng Village due to the reality. Ran Xiaoyi stayed and became the successor of witchcraft in Qingzhu Village.

This is the process, and it is finally sorted out.

What is not yet understood is why Ran Xiaoyi's sister wants to cooperate with the Western Regions people, and where Ning Xianer and the others went.

Qin Yan and Wu Shaoyi must have asked about this matter after listening to the explanation, and Yang Yiyi had to ask too.

But before she opened her mouth, she heard a noisy sound coming from outside, accompanied by hurried footsteps.

Yang Yiyi stood up and wanted to see what happened.

Originally, Ran Xiaoyi wanted to ask Yang Yiyi how she survived the night attack, but when she heard the noise, her face changed immediately and she asked her directly:

"Did you come alone?"

"Yes."

"Have you confirmed that there is no one following you?"

"Uh... no."

Yang Yiyi was busy tracking footprints all the way and didn't think about whether there was anyone following her.

Think about it, since Fenghuang Village acted according to the instructions of Baofeng Village, Ran Xiaoyi ruined their good deeds, will they come to make up for this failure?

Ran Xiaoyi ran out, and Yang Yiyi also realized that she might have attracted the enemy, so she hurriedly followed him out.

The place where everyone temporarily stayed was just built by cutting some bamboos casually. It had no defensive ability at all, just camouflage and could resist some beasts.

If someone really came to the door, it would basically be like fighting an encounter in the forest.

The heroes of the Sixteenth Village, who had just sat down for a while, and the people of the Green Bamboo Village rushed to the camp gate. Ran Xiaoyi was small but ran very fast, and was the first to rush in front.

When they arrived at the camp gate, they saw shadowy figures in the forest not far away, vaguely seeming to half surround them.

It was basically impossible to completely surround them without anyone noticing. Everyone grew up in the forest and was an old Chinese doctor, so there was no need to prescribe this kind of medicine.

Seeing Ran Xiaoyi and his men appear in front of the door, they naturally knew that they must be exposed, so there was no point in hiding.

When Yang Yiyi rushed over, she happened to see the old innkeeper stepping out from behind a big tree and saluted Ran Xiaoyi.

"Ran Wuzhu, why do you have to meddle in such nosy matters?"

"Stop talking nonsense! You old fool, what benefits did Baofengzhai promise you? You actually put in so much effort!"

"I'm just doing it so that we people in southern Xinjiang can have a fertile land. If you don't understand, Ran Wuzhu, it certainly doesn't make sense."

"Bah! We are the people of the mountain. If you do this, the mountain god will not let you go!"

"What you said is wrong. The mountain god never cares where we live."

The old shopkeeper took a few steps back with his crutch:

"Since it's useless to talk more, Ran Wuzhu, please forgive me for being rude."

A group of southern Xinjiang people with hatchets and clubs in their hands sprang out from behind the trees and shrubs where they were hiding almost at the same time, and charged in unison.

And the old shopkeeper didn't seem to be a fuel-efficient lamp. He removed the round handle on the head of the cane, revealing a scorpion-shaped carving.

Then he waved the wooden stick and swayed left and right behind him, looking like a dancing master.

He is also a witch!

"Go! Don't show mercy, the mountain god will punish them!"

Although Ran Xiaoyi did not want to start a dispute with his own clan, this battle was unavoidable and he had no choice but to bite the bullet.
