Lithops are naturally good at camouflage. Once they get into other plants, they will gnaw off the original plant in a very short time, leaving only a shell, which can be used as an impostor.

The vegetative person disguised by Lithops, the black line at the back of the neck is the only flaw, other than that, there are almost no telltale signs.

Lithops, which is cruel by nature, likes to feed on other vegetatives. This behavior, which is no different from monsters, eventually aroused public outrage——300 years ago, all the countries in Caiyun Jian issued an order to exterminate the Lithops within their borders.

Now, the Lithops flower, which was exterminated long ago and should have disappeared, has reappeared.

"Back then, someone secretly helped Lithops to escape a catastrophe." Xu Chang'an said in an unusually firm tone. He thought of the general in Wucheng, and the third uncle's family far away in Sudu, and couldn't help feeling a little nervous. .

"Not only that, the people who helped Lithops back then, even if they weren't the current Daliang royal family, still have something to do with them." Xue Yunshen was in the middle of speaking, keenly aware of Xu Changan's emotional changes.

Cutting off the conversation, Xue Yunshen put his arms around Xu Changan's shoulders, patted Xu Changan reassuringly, and comforted him, "Don't worry, Third Uncle will be fine."

Having said that, it is impossible for Xu Changan not to worry at all.

Xue Yunshen knew this well, seeing that Xu Changan's face had improved, he raised his voice and called to Mu Mu.

"Back to the lord, everything in Mr. Chi's body has been cleaned up." Having said this, Mu Mu paused for a while before continuing, "It's just that the hemostatic medicine I carry with me may not be enough..."

"How long is it enough?" Xue Yunshen asked.

Mu Mu bent down deeply, and replied in a low voice: "It's less than five days."

If it's less than five days, then he has to rush to the nearest small town within four days, so that he can supplement medicine to keep Chi Yan alive.

Fortunately, although Daliang has a vast land and sparse population, and its economy is not very prosperous, the layout of the small towns scattered between the cities is reasonable.Therefore, it is impossible to miss the nearest city, Fengdu, within four days, but it is possible to arrive at the next small town.

But this is without considering Wucheng.

Taking a step back, even if there is only the Lithops flower occupying the general's body in Wucheng today, it is enough to cause serious trouble-the highest general in a city is a spy sent by the enemy, just think about it, It was very creepy.

What's more, there are tens of thousands of deep mountains behind Wucheng, as long as a Lithops flower hides in it, Xue Yunshen's father, Emperor Jingzong, will not be able to sleep peacefully every night.

Because it is never possible to predict who the next Lithops will be eyeing.

This also means that it is necessary to rush to Fengdu to ask for help in the shortest possible time.

Xu Changan connected back and forth, thinking through all the details.

On the other side, Xue Yunshen had already made a quick decision: "Go and tell Xu Daoxuan and the others to go to Fengdu immediately after disposing of the corpses of these Lithops flowers."

"In addition, except for Chang'an, everyone, including me, takes turns driving, and must arrive at Fengdu as quickly as possible."

"Yes!"

Mu Mu, who got the explanation, immediately responded loudly with her chest up and her stomach in, and went to pass the message without mentioning it.

When Mu Mu walked away, Xu Changan gave Xue Yunshen a slanted glance, and asked the bottom line: "Why do you want to get rid of me?"

Xue Yunshen couldn't help but chuckled a few times, then put the smile away, and said seriously: "I won't tell you."

Xu Changan: "..."

Between "He actually has something to hide from me" and "Should I break the casserole and ask the end", Xu Changan chose the other one without hesitation.He twitched his brows, and laughed swayingly, the clear eye waves contained in his eyes were overflowing like a stream of light.

Deliberately drawing the tone long and long, Xu Changan stared into Xue Yunshen's eyes and said, "If you don't tell me, forget it."

Xue Yunshen's whole body relaxed, and just about to say something else, he heard Xu Chang'an say again: "You hold it alone."

Xue Yunshen: "..."

Xue Yunshen did not talk about the speculation in his heart, but it was actually reasonable.

Before the diagnosis is confirmed, if the princess is told in advance, if it is diagnosed that she is not pregnant, wouldn't it be a waste of joy?

Xue Yunshen, who thinks he is impregnable and invincible, said that if it is really empty joy, let him bear it silently.

Xu Chang'an didn't hold back and teased Xue Yunshen, but fortunately he understood the principle of accepting as soon as it was good, and he didn't take advantage of the victory to pursue it. He just calmly got into the carriage with Chu Yu's support.

Xue Yunshen, who stayed where he was, pondered for a long time in silence, and finally had to admit that his concubine was a eloquent and careful character.

"It's not easy to offend." Xue Yunshen couldn't help but sighed.

Not far away, Xu Daoxuan, who accidentally listened to the entire conversation, nodded empathetically.

A group of people traveled day and night, wearing the stars and the moon, and driving alternately for four days and four nights, and finally arrived at Fengdu late at night on the fourth day.

At this time, it was already past the night ban, and the gates of the city were closed tightly.In the cold and frosty night, Mu Mu and Chu Yu yelled at the gate of the city for a long time, but they didn't get the slightest response. In desperation, they had to reveal Xue Yunshen's identity.

Holding Xue Yunshen's token in his hand, Mu Mu raised his voice and said: "The officers and men in the city obey the orders. I am the follower of His Royal Highness King Mo. The prince is coming to Fengdu in person, so hurry up and open the door to greet him!"

***

As the guard of Fengdu, General Gong, who had been busy for two days and two nights and finally squinted his eyes for a while, was really complaining about being dug up from the bed by his servants in the middle of the night.

This complaint suddenly turned into a rage when he heard the report that someone from outside the city claimed to be the third prince.

"Okay," General Gong cursed through gritted teeth, "I just killed one batch, and another batch of fake ones came."

"Where is Deputy General Lin!" General Gong ordered his troops aggressively.

"General, did you forget? Last night, in order to reward Vice General Lin, you took out the stuffed tofu that you had treasured for many years, which made Vice General Lin feel sick to his stomach. Now he is lying down in the medical hall."

General Gong choked up, and immediately changed to a lieutenant general: "Where is Vice General Cao!"

"This..." The servant carefully looked at his general's face, and reminded him as tactfully as possible: "Vice General Cao died for the country a few days ago."

Hearing this, the bleary-eyed General Gong suddenly regained consciousness.

Deputy General Cao, formerly known as Cao Dawang, is a direct subordinate of General Gong, a deputy general who was single-handedly pulled out, and finally watched him become a family and start a business. Two days ago, the whole family, including the three-year-old baby, were killed by the plague-stricken beast .

General Gong mourned the loss of his left arm. He and another deputy general Lin searched continuously for two days and two nights before finding out the Lithops flower that had gotten into the crowd.

General Gong wiped his face, and said tiredly: "Go and get the horse, I'll go up to the city wall and have a look."

"Hey!" The servant responded, took two steps, then turned back, hesitantly said: "General, don't you bring someone to follow?"

General Gong couldn't help but let out a deep sigh, and said in a low voice, "No."

When the servant brought the horse over, the old and vigorous General Gong quickly turned on the horse, then scolded softly, and quickly disappeared into the night.

On the other side, Mu Mu shouted so dryly that he didn't see the city gate open for a long time, and when he was feeling a little uneasy, he suddenly heard a loud scolding from the city wall: "That kid, how dare you pretend to be the third prince! I will teach you how powerful Grandpa is!"

Mu Mu and the others in the carriage: "..."

"This general is really brave."

Mu Mu and Chu Yu thought at the same time.

The matter didn't end there, the chubby General Gong stood on top of the wall, and scolded Xue Yunshen bloodily, eloquently and without seriousness.Hu Mu wanted to intervene forcibly several times, but was defeated every time because her voice was not loud enough.

After finally waiting for General Gong to stop, Mu Mu was about to give a boost when she saw General Gong waving his hand from a distance.

Immediately afterwards, the sound of two hard words came over with the wind: "Let the arrow!"

The well-trained soldiers received the order and immediately drew their bows like a full moon.

Between lightning and flint, a deep voice, with the inherent natural power, shouted angrily: "Presumptuous!"

The arrows in the hands of the soldiers almost stopped.

General Gong's ears hurt from the shock, and he couldn't hear anything for a while, only vaguely saw a dark purple figure coming out of the carriage.

"Gongdeng Longevity Flower, open your eyes and take a good look, who is this king?"

In all fairness, Xue Yunshen's voice was not too loud in order to avoid waking Xu Changan who was in a light sleep, but it was enough for a vegetable with sensitive ears and eyes to hear it.

The premise is that he didn't talk into General Gong's ear just now.

So General Gong, who couldn't hear and couldn't see clearly, was so anxious that his copper-bell-sized eyes widened. He waved his hand to call for the nearest soldier, and asked them to repeat the words of the purple-robed man loudly.

"General! This is really His Royal Highness the Third Prince! You order to open the city gate!"

General Gong didn't hear anything clearly, and replied in a voice that he thought was small: "I can't hear clearly! Say it again!"

The poor soldier whose ears were almost deafened: "..."

Forced by the general's coercion, the soldiers had no choice but to pluck up their courage and roared again. This time, with all their strength, even Xue Yun, who was under the city, heard it clearly.

General Naihe Gong still didn't hear clearly.

Seeing that General Gong was about to speak softly again, the soldier closed his eyes in despair.

However, the expected thunder did not occur.

General Gong, who didn't hear the sound but understood the movement of his lips, hurriedly lifted his untidy official uniform, and rolled down the city wall while screaming, "Welcome! Greet! Hurry up and open the city!" Door!"

When General Gong led a group of soldiers sweating profusely and rolled to Xue Yunshen's feet like locusts crossing the border, Xu Chang'an was woken up by coincidence.

"Why such a loud rumbling sound?" Xu Changan rubbed his forehead and leaned half of his body out of the carriage.

The night was thick, and the young man with fox fur and snow, like a full and bright moon, showed his figure from inside the dark car.The night wind gently brushed over his delicate eyebrows that were still full of sleepiness, and it only stopped for a while on the forehead where the exquisite pearl was hanging, and then it blew away as if it disappeared.

At this moment, the Fengdu soldiers who dared to raise their heads thought they had seen the Moon Immortal.

However, at the next moment, Yue Zhongxian was suddenly pushed in.

"Carefully caught the wind and caught a cold." Xue Yunshen found an upright excuse and pushed Xu Changan back into the carriage.

The soldiers who came to their senses after hearing His Highness Mo's voice all lowered their heads lower, for fear that no one would notice that they were looking directly at Wang Hao's face.

Xue Yunshen originally thought, how to say that sentence, let General Gong have a taste of his strength, but unfortunately Xu Changan has already woken up.For the sake of the princess' health, Xue Yunshen had no choice but to let go of the deaf and blind General Gong first.

"Get up." Xue Yunshen raised his hand.

General Gong climbed up tremblingly, and said in his mouth: "It is inconvenient late at night, please ask the prince to stay in the humble house for the night, wake up tomorrow morning, and invite the prince..."

"Forget it, I'll stay with you for the next few days." Xue Yunshen interrupted General Gong, and said grandly, "So as not to mobilize the troops, waste the people and waste money."

General Gong, whose ears were buzzing, heard this, and could only laugh along with him: "Thank you, my lord, for your compassion. It's my great fortune to love your people like your own son."

General Gong, who is very good at adapting to the wind, never mentioned it before he uttered wild words and scolded this great week luck.
