Mind Reading: The villain wins after hearing the princess's inner voice

Now on the other side of the mountain.

Junshan King Xiao Long brought some of his confidants and the disguised Left Prime Minister Wang Lingchang to the foot of the mountain.

Under the moonlight, under the light of the lantern held by his confidant Fei Qiong, Xiao Long took out the parchment scroll from his arms, pointed at the cut edge of the map, and spoke excitedly.

"Teacher, according to the map on the parchment, the treasure should be nearby."

Looking at the cut edge, Wang Lingchang stood at the foot of the mountain. Under the light of the moon, he focused on the continuous mountains not far away, with a very unhappy expression on his face.

"I originally thought that if I took this parchment scroll and followed the map on it to find the area nearby, the treasure would be not far from us."

Who knew that there were mountains ahead?

Even if they guessed that the treasure was hidden in the mountains, the area was too wide and it would take them a long time to find it.

Nowadays, frequently going in and out of the mountains can easily arouse suspicion from others.

Another problem is that they don't have enough time to search everywhere.

This area is too large and takes too long.

King Junshan also thought of this.

His excitement was immediately extinguished by the reality before him.

"It would be nice if I could get another parchment scroll."

The regretful tone of King Junshan sounded particularly uncomfortable to the ears of the Left Prime Minister.

When he was young, he learned from the prince in the palace that the last emperor of the previous dynasty had hidden a batch of treasures. He immediately used his connections to secretly search for the descendants of the last emperor.

After years of searching, he finally found the last descendant of the Last Emperor hiding in the south of the Great Zhou Dynasty. She was the illegitimate daughter of the Last Emperor.

When she was found, she was already an old woman in her twilight years and her health was failing.

In order to get the information about the treasure ahead from her, he brought people disguised as vicious bandits, broke into her home, and threatened with the lives of her family.

Finally got this hard-earned parchment scroll.

But it's a pity.

After he got the parchment scroll, he found that it was missing half. The old woman said that when the thing was passed to her, it was only half.

She didn't know who had the other half.

In order to find the other half of the parchment scroll, Wang Lingchang spent a lot of manpower and resources searching for many years, but there was no news.

He had given so much, but his student, the prince, was still not satisfied.

It was a bit disheartening for him.

However, when he thought about the great cause in his heart and his persistence over the years, he didn't want to give up halfway.

At the beginning, since he had willingly chosen this person to realize his ideal and had spent a lot of his energy on it, he had no choice but to move forward unswervingly.

"Let's go into the mountains tonight to have a look. We don't want this trip to be in vain."

Wang Lingchang's words touched Junshan King Xiao Long's heart.

He thought so too.

So they went into the mountains.

King Junshan and his men didn't know that Xiao Lichen and his men kept a certain distance from them and followed them quietly into the mountain.

Led by the white-haired wolf king, Tao Yuwei and Jiang Siyan came to a high mountain.

[Little girl, when I was young, I heard the story of treasure from the ancestors of the wolf clan. They said that when they were young, they led the family out to look for food at night. They saw many people pulling a lot of things into the mountains, and when they came out of the mountains, the carts were empty.]

Tao Yuwei understood.

The wolf king knew that there was a treasure hidden in the mountain because he learned this from the older generation of his family.

As for the exact location of the treasure, the Wolf King didn't know either.

[Brother Wolf, do your ancestors know the approximate location of those people's hidden treasures? ]

[It is said to be in this area. ]

[When our ancestors were still young, the teams pulled carts into the mountains one after another. They hid in the woods. I only remember that their approximate location was around here.]

After Tao Yuwei got this answer, she was excited but also a little unsure.

They were standing at the foot of a steep slope. The moon was shining through the trees. The scene in front of them looked very familiar to Tao Yuwei.

Why did she feel like she had seen the terrain nearby somewhere before?

Seeing her thoughtful expression, Jiang Siyan expressed her own guess, "Princess Anle, there are mountains all around, where can we find those things? What if those things don't exist at all and are just a lie?"

"No, it's not a lie!"

The white wolf king knew that there was a treasure in the mountain. The King of Junshan, who hid behind the scenes and framed the Zhuguogong family, also knew about the treasure of the previous dynasty.

That can't be wrong.

What's more, the plot states that all these treasures eventually fall into the hands of the male protagonist Xiao Chengyan, helping him successfully seize the throne of the Emperor of the Great Zhou.

Looking at the mountains and terrain in front of her, Tao Yuwei became more and more certain that she seemed to have seen it somewhere before.

Tao Yuwei fell into deep thought.

Where had she been seen before?

[Little girl, don't hesitate, hide quickly, someone is coming this way. ]

White Wolf suddenly reminded anxiously.

Tao Yuwei withdrew her thoughts, took Jiang Siyan's hand, and, under the guidance of the white wolf, hid in the lush woods nearby.

Not long after they entered the woods, King Junshan, King Lingchang of the Left, and others arrived.

"Teacher, this mountainous area is too large. Where should we go?"

King Junshan looked at the mountains in front of him and felt very anxious.

The Left Prime Minister Wang Lingchang was much calmer than him.

He took out a map of the mountains and rivers of the Great Zhou and opened it. Under the light of the lantern in Feiqiong's hand, he carefully analyzed the areas shown on it.

"The mountain area we are in is called Heiyazi. It consists of seven peaks. Maybe the treasure is hidden in one of them."

Wang Lingchang also did some research on Tai Chi, Bagua, Feng Shui and Chinese studies, but when he came here he found that they were of no use at all.

If you want to find the treasure of the previous dynasty as soon as possible, you must bring a powerful Feng Shui master with you.

King Junshan and Wang Lingchang were both cautious people. They would rather go through the trouble of finding the treasure themselves than create trouble by bringing an outsider here.

Those who follow them are their trusted confidants who have been with them for many years, so they are not afraid that they will betray them.

King Junshan looked a little annoyed. "Without a specific location, it will take at least half a year for us to search these seven mountains."

The problem is, they don't have much time left.

"Let's go up this mountain and look for it first!"

Wang Lingchang looked at the mountains in front of him, put away the map in his hand and said.

"Let's go up the mountain and take a look!"

King Junshan and others walked up the winding mountain road towards the high mountain.

Not long after they left, Tao Yuwei and the others were still hiding in the woods and had not come out.

The two of them and the wolf hid in the woods. Jiang Siyan pulled her arm and whispered, "Princess Anle, who were those people just now? From what they said, they were also going into the mountains to look for treasure."

In the dark woods, Tao Yuwei noticed that something was wrong with Jiang Siyan's mood.

"Do you already know their identities?"
