The Emperor's Daughter Arrives: Upgrade to Fight Monsters and Find Husbands

After observing for a long time, I saw two guards at the rear gate, one fat and one thin. The two guards here were obviously not as energetic as the previous ones. They were taking a nap together, nodding their heads again and again, feeling drowsy.

Jiu Tang thought about it, a bit like how she used to doze off in a boring class.

The thin man kowtowed violently and almost fell to the ground. He staggered, but fortunately he caught the fat man next to him, otherwise he would have had close contact with the ground.

The thin man slapped himself twice and quickly pushed his companion who was also sleepy.

"Fat Tiger! Stop sleeping!"

If you are caught, you will be punished. If someone took the opportunity to sneak in, they would both get a good beating.

Fat Tiger was sleepy and rubbed his eyes lazily. He kept his body still and rubbed his butt back. He leaned against the wall and yawned loudly: "Bamboo pole, what time is it now?"

"Shift changes in less than an hour. Be energetic. I feel like the captain is coming to inspect."

Fat Tiger curled his lips with a look of disdain: "Who is coming to this place where birds don't poop? We have been working the night shift here for a long time. Where is the last time there is anyone? Let me tell you, it doesn't matter if we don't go back to the house to sleep. Give him face."

Zhugan stood up, stamped his feet, yelped twice, and scratched his body: "It's almost autumn, and the mosquitoes are still so powerful. They bit me all over in one night."

Fat Tiger squinted his eyes comfortably and leaned against the wall, his eyes still half-closed: "I told you to wear more clothes, but you don't listen... What do you mean, don't listen to the old man. ..."

"Shhh." Zhugan shushed softly, interrupting Fat Tiger's words. His eyes suddenly became sharp and he glanced around.

Jiu Tang: Has it been discovered? ? ? Being so far away from the ground, she hid her breath again. It shouldn't be. It doesn't make sense.

The bamboo pole struck out with lightning speed.

"Snapped!"

"Fat Tiger, look at this big mosquito, it's so exciting."

Fat Tiger leaned his head over. Bamboo pole opened his hand, and there was a big flower mosquito on his hand. His stomach was beaten to pieces, and the overflowing blood stained Bamboo pole's palm.

Fat Tiger snorted.

Ayan was hanging on Jiu Tang's shoulder, and there seemed to be a big black line drawn on his head. He was a little speechless: "This person is really interesting, making such a big noise by hitting a mosquito. It's so boring."

The bamboo pole opened the palm of his left hand, flicked the fingers of his right hand, and the mosquito's body fell lightly to the ground.

"Okay, you stay here and watch for a while, I'll go to the hut and come back as soon as I go. Don't fall asleep." Zhugan warned, turned and left.

Fat Tiger responded vaguely, closed his eyes, and fell asleep again.

Seeing that the time was almost up, Jiu Tang walked in the opposite direction from the bamboo pole. Soon, Fat Tiger's snoring sound came.

Jiu Tang ran up the wall like a nimble cat, turned over, and landed firmly on the ground in the garden.

This is the back garden of Yuan Mansion, decorated classically and full of charm. The winding path is lined with gorgeous flowers and plants.

Jiu Tang walked quietly along the roadside without making a sound. Not long after, a bridge appeared in front of them. Below it was a huge rectangular lake. In the center of the lake was a small and exquisite house. Two bridges in the front and back connected the small house in the center to the land in front and behind.

In other words, if Jiu Tang wants to go to the front courtyard of Yuan Mansion, he must cross this small bridge and pass that house.

Jiu Tang tilted his head and thought for a while, looking around. There was no spiritual power fluctuation, which showed that there was no monk guarding him. From here to the opposite side of the lake, it only takes a few breaths. As long as she is fast enough, she will not be discovered at all.

He flew lightly, climbed onto the bridge, and reached the back of the yard in the center of the lake in the blink of an eye.

Unexpectedly, there was a slight sound of opening the door from the small house in the center, and then it was gently closed. It was not noisy in this quiet night.

Jiu Tang secretly sighed that it was just right. If the voice had been slower for one second, she would have walked to the side of the house and would have been discovered by the person opening the door. Now that she was behind the house, she could take some shelter.

I just thought about hiding from the monks, but I didn't expect that there would be ordinary people in the Yuan Mansion.

The two footsteps that came out, stepping lightly on the ground, were two ordinary maids with no cultivation.

One of them whispered: "He still hasn't eaten?"

The other one was carrying a food box, which was shaking. It looked like there was a lot of stuff in it. Shaking his head: "No, how did the food box go in or how did it come out. No matter what I said, he ignored it."

"What can we do about this? The head of the family specifically told him not to let him die. Now he has not eaten for seven days, and I am afraid that even a monk will not be able to survive. What's more, he is still an ordinary person without spiritual power."

"Hey... If it doesn't work, we can only report it to the head of the family. Otherwise, let's come back in two hours and wait for him to faint and feed him a pill to keep him alive."

"we can only do this."

Watching the two people walking away, Jiu Tang couldn't help but feel curious. Is there someone hiding in Yuan's mansion? I relaxed inside and forgot to hold back my breath.

Suddenly a voice came from my ears: "How long do you want to hide there?"

It was a dry male voice. After saying this, he coughed violently. It sounds very serious.

Discovered? Then don’t hide.

Seeing that he was discovered by the people inside the house, Jiu Tang came out openly. The person inside didn't seem to be on good terms with the Yuan Mansion. Otherwise, he would have called for someone to come if he saw her here.

Moreover, maybe he knows something about what's going on here.

The carved window was opened by the man, and Jiu Tang jumped in. Although the house looks small and exquisite from the outside, it is quite unique inside and is not too cramped.

The man was thin, with chapped lips and faint bloodshot eyes. In this dim environment, it looks a bit eerie.

His body was shaky, and he must have spent a lot of energy just opening the window. It looks like I haven't had a drop of rice in many days.

"Girl, what happened when you broke into the Yuan Mansion at night?" His voice was still a little hoarse, and you could barely make out what he said.

Jiu Tang watched him fumble for a chair to sit on, worried that he would fall to the ground. I didn't know how to explain my behavior tonight, so I said haha: "It's okay. I just can't sleep in the middle of the night, why don't I come and stroll around the garden, just take a walk."

The conversation changed: "It's just you, you don't look good."

The man smiled faintly, extremely bitterly, not knowing what he was thinking:

"Good or bad, it is like this now. I have no nostalgia for this world for a long time. Now that I am kidnapped into this Yuan Mansion, I don't have much time left to live."

A glimmer of interest flashed in Jiu Tang's eyes: "Why do you say that? Why does the Yuan Mansion want to bring you here?"

The man sighed, picked up the water glass on the table, and took a sip of water to make his voice sound less dry and unpleasant.

"The girl can sneak into the Yuan Mansion in the middle of the night, so her cultivation level must be quite high. I just have one last wish - I know it's presumptuous to say this, but I don't have much time left."

"Tell me first." Jiu Tang sat on the chair with his legs crossed.

Since meeting him is considered fate, if it's a small favor, she can do it if she can.

"My name is Liang Tuo. The only regret I have in my life is about a girl."

Liang Tuo took another sip, paused, and his tone was full of sadness.
