Heaven's Formula

"It's too late." Olina shook her head, "Only he can help me—"

"So that person isn't that bad? Or, you're used to this kind of relationship..."

Not that bad?

Olina Okan was slightly taken aback. Speaking of which, when she was in Gyeonggi, Xia Fan was still a member of the Privy Council. She sneaked into the center of the recording department, and the two sides were already enemies.When he escaped from prison, he kept the agreement and brought himself all the way back to Jinxia - the only city in Daqi that was not under the control of the Privy Council.Now he also provides an opportunity for his younger brother to continue studying in the Noble Academy. Although it is a deal, it is not a debt to himself.

No... This is all an illusion, she shook her head, and put these thoughts behind her, "How is it possible, pure good or bad is not enough to describe him. If you can see him, you will understand that evil is evil. Words made for him."

After speaking, Olina returned to the house with the basin in hand.

Xintao in the yard showed an expression that she still couldn't finish it——what a tortuous story she heard!A foreign woman who traveled far away and came to Jinxia alone, was controlled by a strong local wealthy family to satisfy her desires that were different from ordinary people.Originally it was just a coercion to take advantage of others, but in this entanglement, the two parties gradually developed emotions beyond the contract.

She had a premonition in her heart that if this story could be written, it would definitely be very popular!

Of course, this does not mean that she is indifferent to Olina's situation - if this book has attracted widespread attention, the employer should also gradually change his attitude towards Miss Olina under the pressure of public opinion, right?

This may be the best result for both parties.

Chapter 339 Olina's Day

Olina didn't know that she was about to become the protagonist in the little girl's novel. She poured cold well water into the pot, then spit out a flame and lit the clay stove, waiting quietly for the water to boil.

Letting her live alone won her freedom, but it also brought a lot of trouble.

Like cooking.

It is not that she has never been in the kitchen. After the family declined, even a few maids could not afford to be hired in the huge castle. At that time, she supported the family with one hand, including preparing meals for her younger brother.

But all she could do was bake bread, boil potatoes, and bake apple pie.

The method is to spray out a small fire, a big fire, and a combination of the two.It can be said that in fire control, few dragonborn can do better than her.

Qiguo's food, however, is quite different.

Those rice grains will only turn into a black and burnt mass when they burn.

She still asked Ms. Yu to master the most basic oriental cooking methods.

Boil the water and add rice.

If there is less water, the rice will be dry, and the rice will be made; if the water is too much, the rice will be wet, and the rice will be made into porridge.

In the morning, according to the past practice, it is natural to eat porridge.

Soon, a mass of yellow-white mushy food came out of the oven.Olina frowned and scooped it into the bowl, and couldn't help sighing—this thing has nothing to praise except for filling the stomach.

It's not that Daqi doesn't have delicious food, at least when she was in Gyeonggi, she has participated in several court banquets, and she is overwhelmed with delicious food.But wanting to reproduce those delicacies is obviously far beyond her ability.In the East, cooking skills are also a kind of secret, and only an heir is selected within the family to learn the secret technique, and the only thing she can do is to sprinkle some fine salt into the paste to make it less delicious. dull.

But you still have to eat.

If you don't eat, you have no strength, and if you don't have strength, you can't work.

Olina knew that she endured humiliation for the sake of her family.Even if he can't use his status as an ambassador in exchange for meritorious service, as long as his younger brother is promising and performs well in the academy, it is still possible to revive Okan's name.

"May the Sun God watch over you and me, and bathe in the glory of Hera no matter where you are."

After praying as usual, Olina took a deep breath and swallowed the breakfast in front of her.

For some reason, she remembered the bowl of pork bone soup she ate when she just woke up.

No - hold back.

She suppressed her urge to embezzle the deposit to hire a cook or housekeeper, and patted her cheek hard.

This money must be sent back to the Holy Wing Islands, and there is no shortage of one tael of silver.

Olina walked to the table, picked up today's work schedule and reconfirmed the content - it was almost time, that is, nine o'clock in the morning, and it was almost time to leave.

She locked the door, left the house, and headed north along the street.After leaving the city through the north gate, she continued to walk eastward for a while - this place was close to the mouth of the inland river, and although it was not far from the city wall, there were no signs of human activity around.

Olina started running towards the sea, her body swelled accordingly, and soon she transformed into a dragon shape, spread her wings and swept towards the sea.She kept flying at this altitude for about a quarter of an hour, until she left Jinxia City far behind, then she suddenly raised the altitude, turned around and flew towards the northwest of Shenzhou.

……

Shenzhou, White River City.

This is also the last big city in Shenzhou, which is located at the intersection of the two water veins of the Baihe River and the Qujiang River.The surrounding terrain is open and separated by water, which is not suitable for gathering large troops.In addition, it has been one of the hubs of Shenzhou since the Yong Dynasty, so its city wall and Jinxia belong to the same specification, and it can be called a strong city.

But at this moment, this strong city ushered in its challenger.

Prefect Jiang sat in the lobby of the government office, calmly comforting his "guests"—they were the prefect of Anshen City, Mr. Kui, the magistrate of Qiulu County, and the county magistrate Zheng of Puxi County.

The experiences of these people are all very similar. Basically, they were first wanted by Jinxia City, and then the captured troops broke the city in one fell swoop.But even so, they were lucky enough compared to those officials who failed to escape the hunt.

"Everyone, please rest assured, my subordinates can see very clearly that Ning Wanjun's troops are only about 500 people, there is still a small chance of a sneak attack, and a frontal attack is absolutely impossible to shake this fortified city!" Jiang Taishou vowed, "The number of people, we are five times that of the enemy; the terrain, we defend the city; as for this day... without supplementary supplies, it is impossible for them to fight for a long time in the snow! The right time and place are on our side, everyone! What's there to worry about?"

This is not a lie.

The news that Princess Guangping was plotting rebellion and attacking opponents in Shenzhou has spread, and the prefect Jiang, who was warned, immediately took precautions.He not only conscripted people from the surrounding counties and towns into the city to repair the fortifications, but also spent money to recruit a large group of soldiers to step up training.In addition to the servants and guards brought by other officials who fled to Baihe City, the defense force in the city suddenly doubled several times, and there were many catapults, bed crossbows, broken ladder carts, and hot oil basins.Even if the Shenzhou garrison came to attack the city, I'm afraid it would not get any benefits.

In Jiang Taishou's view, the princess was always too arrogant.If she dealt with big cities like Baihe and Anshen first, how could they react in time?

"But the other party has a monster with a mechanism..." Lord Wei of Anshen City was still a little worried, "That thing is invulnerable to swords and guns, and hard to hurt by arrows. Once the gate of the city is broken, it will be difficult for thousands of people to stop it."

"I have already prepared for this." Jiang Taishou sneered, "I have planted a thousand catties of gunpowder under the four city gates. As long as the other party dares to enter through the gate, I will make them die without knowing why."

Hearing this, everyone's expressions could not help but recover a little.

"I really hope that the imperial court can dispatch troops as soon as possible to restore order in Shenzhou."

"That princess only dared to act recklessly while the Shenzhou garrison was away. When the snow melts, it will be her turn to suffer."

Just when everyone was comforting each other, a strange whistling sound entered everyone's ears.

"Did you... hear anything?" County magistrate Zheng was already terrified, but now that Ning Wanjun's troops were gathered in the city, any sound would make him terrified.

"Is it the eagle calling?"

"It's not like it, it feels much more dull... I guess it should be the wind."

"Aooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooow

This time, the voice suddenly came much closer, as if it came from the top of the head!

what happened?

Jiang Taishou was about to ask the attendants outside the door to find out, but a guard ran into the house in a panic, "Mr. Taishou, no, it's not good!"

"What's wrong? Tell me clearly!" The eunuch was startled, and he pretended to be calm.

"There are flying four-legged monsters in the sky, attacking the trebuchets and bed crossbows on our west wall!"

"A flying...monster?"

Prefect Jiang rushed out of the government office and looked up to the west - he saw a huge black lizard hovering and swooping in the air, spouting clouds of flames towards the wall from time to time.The guards fled in all directions, crying for their father and mother, without any thought of resisting with their bows and crossbows. The flames not only ignited the defense equipment, but also spread to the boiling oil.When the grease dripped from the overturned copper basin, the flames burned out of control.

In less than half a quarter of an hour, half of the city wall of Baihe City has been engulfed in flames!

3 Forty Chapters Olina's Day

Jiang Taishou only felt the hairs all over his body stand on end.

This is the legendary - a monster, right?

But don't monsters live in seclusion in the mountains and forests, and hardly have contact with the human world?Why would there be monsters to assist Princess Quang Binh when she attacked the city? ?

"No, don't panic!" He waved his big hand, and said bravely, "Let the troops at the top of the city enter the corridors in the city to hide temporarily. As long as the city gate is not lost, a monster will never want to call Baihe City to surrender!"

However, before the order was issued, another guard ran towards him along the long street, "My lord, the enemy's mechanism beasts have already breached the city gate, and the first line of defense is about to fail!"

"Where's the gunpowder?" Prefect Jiang was furious, "Why didn't they detonate the gunpowder?"

"I don't know when there was a female alchemist in white at the ignition point, let alone ignition, no one dared to approach her ten steps!" There was a fear in the guard's eyes, "Anyone who raises a sword against her will Beheaded in an instant, I can't even see how she made the move!"

"How could this be..." Jiang Taishou murmured.He had carefully prepared for this battle for more than ten days. He thought it would be no problem to persist for half a year, but he didn't expect that it took less than half an hour from the time the princess' troops gathered in the city to the time the city gate fell.

When did Jinxia City become so capable?

The chaos at the gate of the city seemed to spread to the inner city, the sounds of fighting and shouting became more and more obvious, and the black monster also lowered its flight altitude, passing the streets and alleys like a dark cloud.There is no doubt that the recruits stationed in these places do not even need the enemy to attack, just seeing this horrific sight will disintegrate and flee on their own.

"My lord, run quickly, before it's too late! There is no princess's army in the north, and we can protect you to escape!"

"Escape?" he murmured, "Where can I escape?"

Baihe City was already Shenzhou's last barrier. If even the three-foot city wall couldn't stop the opponent, who else could he count on to resist the rebels?Of course, he could also follow the snow-covered road all the way north to Youzhou and Shangyuan, but the chances of freezing to death on the road were higher after a long journey in this kind of weather.

This vast and beautiful river and mountain... There is no place that can shelter him.

"Master Jiang... Could it be that you want to live and die with Baihe City?" The guard couldn't help but clenched his saber tightly, "In that case, the subordinates will also..."

"What coexistence and death, of course, is to surrender to the princess!" Jiang Taishou gave him a blank look, "This old man is a prefect, she must show some face. Besides, it is better to be imprisoned than to die in the wild. Send me an order— —Everyone put down their weapons and welcome Her Royal Highness Princess Guangping into the city!"

……

The Jinxia army below changed the red command flag to green, which announced that Olina's assisting attack mission had ended, and Baihe City had officially fallen under the control of the princess.

But that doesn't mean she can go home now.

According to Xia Fan's arrangement, she still has two more events to attend.

Compared to such a strategic location as White River City, the other two places are ordinary towns, and they are not considered difficult targets.It’s just that in order to speed up the recovery, Ning Wanjun has been devouring Shenzhou by dividing his troops. For example, Olina will support the vanguard of only 100 people, and there are no mechanism beasts to accompany her. She needs to break through the defense gap .

When all three tasks were completed, the sky also dimmed.

Transformation consumes a lot of magic power. Even though Olina has carefully controlled the duration of each transformation, she still felt intensely dizzy when she landed outside Jinxia City, and the growl in her stomach was like thunder, as if Reminding her to add food as soon as possible.

Even if it's that unpalatable rice porridge.

Olina walked through the snowy streets and alleys to her house, but she saw Ms. Yu standing at the door of her house, and at the same time, there were two men smiling and laughing around her.

Seeing her frowning expression, it seems that she doesn't want to have too much contact with these two.

"Miss Yu, I heard that you used to stay in a brothel in Shangyuan City?"

"Coincidentally, I have been to Shangyuan City once, but I don't know if I have met you, girl."

"Sorry, I don't know you two." Yu Shuangxue was shrouded in the shadow of the two men, but there was no trace of fear on her face, "So please... can you get away from me?" ?”

"What did you say - get off?"

"At this point, you're still standing on the side of the street, and now you're pretending to be noble with me? Don't be ashamed——"

"Hey, you're blocking me." Olina stepped forward with a blank expression, interrupting their yelling.

"Why," the man turned his head, "another one delivered to your door? Don't blame me for not reminding you, if you don't want to cause trouble, you'd better—"

Snapped!

Before he finished speaking, Olina slapped him across the face and sent him flying sideways.

The other person stood there in a daze, the force of this palm was obviously too strong.

Of course, Longnu didn't just hit half of it, she switched to the other hand and pulled the second person into the snowdrift by the side of the road.

Yu Shuangxue blinked, and was also shocked by the two palm strikes. Is it possible for ordinary people to slap a grown man into the air with one hand?

"Don't worry, I have controlled the strength...they can't die." Olina wrote lightly, "You and them shouldn't be friends, right?"

Only then did Yu Shuangxue come back to her senses, "No, I just stood in front of your courtyard for a while, and they suddenly surrounded me."

"You need me for something?"

"Well, did Xintao talk to you about your life experience this morning? For example, your background, and your life in Jinxia..."

Olina thought about it for a while, and it seemed that there was such a thing, so she nodded slightly.

"I'm very sorry!" Yu Shuangxue folded her hands suddenly and bowed, "I've already taught that girl a good lesson, and I guarantee that she won't make the same mistake again! As for what she said was unintentional, please don't take it to heart. superior."

"..." This time it was Olina's turn to be dazed, and the little girl didn't say anything wrong, right?At least she couldn't hear that there was anything to apologize for—or was there some oriental etiquette hidden in it that she didn't understand yet? "Uh... no, it's nothing. I mean... I don't blame her."

Yu Shuangxue let out a long breath, "That's good."

When Olina walked to the door and was about to unlock it, the grunt in her stomach sounded again, and it was so loud that the neighbors on the side all looked sideways.

Rao Longnv also felt a little hot in the face.

"So you haven't had dinner yet." Yu Shuangxue raised the corners of her mouth kindly, "I just started a fire here, or... why don't you come to my house to eat together."

"Eh...together?"

Olina realized that she had subconsciously turned her footsteps before she answered.

"You're welcome," Yu Shuangxue replied heartily, "Just take it as a thank you gift for helping me out."

Chapter 341 The Uninvited Guest

The dinner at the neighbor's house is not complicated. There are only three bowls of noodles, a plate of steamed fish and a bowl of vegetables on the table.
