Joe's Farming

The lack of water was a life-threatening problem for King Qi and Gu Xi, who loved cleanliness.

One has been living a life of luxury since childhood.

One comes from a time when supplies were never scarce.

At night, both of them asked for hot water to take a bath.

If there is no hot water, cold water will do.

Suifeng: ...

"Master, please be patient."

"Doctor Gu, it's good enough to wash your face today."

Both King Qi and Gu Xi were a little depressed.

"I'm sorry, I was too careless. But I believe someone will come to rescue us soon."

The King of Qi said to Gu Xi.

"No, why are you apologizing to me? The weather is not your fault. It's just that there is no water for bathing. How can the food be so shabby..."

The three of them looked at the bowl of vegetable porridge in front of them, which was made of some unknown ingredient, and found it difficult to eat.

King Qi: "I want to eat hot pot."

Gu Xi: "Me too, ... Wait, where did you eat hotpot?"

"Taoyuan County. You don't know that Boss Qiao's hot pot base is famous throughout the county."

Gu Xi looked sad: "I really didn't know. Haitang is so far away from Taoyuan County. I'm already lucky enough to have a coconut chicken."

If he had known that there was hotpot to eat in Taoyuan, he would not have agreed to let King Qi go to the capital.

Qiao Yu has even made the hot pot base, so I guess he can make other delicious dishes as well!

King Qi sighed, "It's a pity that he is unwilling to go to the capital with me, otherwise I could introduce you two to each other."

Gu Xi wanted to say that they not only knew each other, but were also "fellow villagers".

But some things can be said, and some things cannot be said.

If it weren't for the fact that this place called Divine Doctor Valley actually existed in Dayan's history and had always been very mysterious, his treatment methods would have exposed that he was not a doctor of this era.

In the end, the three of them were so hungry that they couldn't bear it anymore and ate the bowl of porridge.

Gu Xi commented while eating: "You know what, I can tell there is cornmeal and salt in this, it's not bad. At least I won't starve to death."

The King of Qi didn't want to talk. He had never eaten such a disgusting thing since he was a child.

Ji Wanning arrived at the outskirts of Qingfeng Village just as it was getting dark.

The secret guards on guard outside recognized the prince's fiancé, the deputy commander of the imperial guards, at a glance.

Why are you here?!

"Master Ji."

The secret guard came down from his hiding place and saluted.

Ji Wanning asked them to stand up: "Tell me about the situation."

"The master, Suifeng, and Doctor Gu are currently locked up in the east wing and are not in danger for the time being.

Two hours ago, someone from the village sent a letter to the secret agent in Suining."

"understood."

Gu Xueqing must have realized that he couldn't take down this bandit den by himself, so he sought help by asking for a ransom.

Ji Wanning could imagine how upset he was after he acted so self-righteously.

Exactly the same as when I was a kid.

"How many people are inside? How many exits are there? Are there any other captives?"

"There are about 60 bandits, and their family members, the elderly, the weak, women and children, are about 30. The master has seven or eight people imprisoned next door, including a woman and a child. There are three exits in the village, and we have people guarding them all."

"Well, just wait. We'll wipe out this bandit den tonight."

"Yes, my lord!"

The King of Qi, lying alone on the hard bed, suddenly felt uneasy, as if something bad was about to happen.

He sat up suddenly.

Gu Xi and Sui Feng were startled.

"Suifeng, go out and see if our people are here."

Suifeng: "This is too fast?"

The implication is that it is unlikely.

The King of Qi glared at him and said, "Go when I tell you to."

"Yes!"

Suifeng knocked on the wooden door.

The person guarding the door asked impatiently, "What are you doing?"

Suifeng said in a painful tone: "Brother, my stomach hurts, can you let me go to the toilet?"

The man said dissatisfiedly: "Why are there so many things to do? Are you going alone?"

"Yes, yes, it's just me."

The man said to his brother beside him, "Call another person to guard the place. I will go with him."

Suifeng was released with a rope tied to his hand to prevent him from escaping.

When they arrived at the toilet, Suifeng took advantage of the guard's back and knocked him out with a single strike.

There were almost no lanterns or oil lamps in the village, and it was obvious that the bandits were not well-off.

Only the two rooms in the main courtyard were brightly lit, probably the rooms of the village chief and the second in command.

Suifeng climbed onto the roof of the main courtyard with a light Kung Fu move, lifted a tile and found that it was indeed the village chief and his men drinking.

"Danniu has done a great deed today. The carriage was sold for thirty taels of silver, and five hundred taels of silver notes were found on the doctor. Not to mention that the young master wanted so much ransom silver himself, hahahaha."

The second in command deliberately flattered Li Daniu.

Li Daniu was flattered and felt very proud: "Hey, big brother, how about you also give me the title of the third in command?"

Wang Daji smiled and took a sip of wine: "No hurry, wait until you get the ten thousand taels of silver. Let's talk about it at the celebration banquet for big brother."

"Hahahaha, thank you first, big brother..."

Suifeng put down the tile and looked up to find a figure standing not far away staring at him.

!!!

The man was tall and slender, and the moonlight shining on him made him look even colder.

Suifeng swallowed his saliva.

How come the princess appeared so beautifully? ? ?

Could it be that she and the prince are really in tune with each other? !

-

"It's been a quarter of an hour. Why haven't these two come back yet? Have they had any problems?"

"Yes, yes. I'm going to the toilet to check. Stay here."

Gu Xi looked at the King of Qi and whispered, "Your Majesty, Sui Feng is about to be exposed. What should we do?"

The King of Qi said calmly: "Let's block the door first."

As he said this, he looked at the wooden table which had a corner missing.

Gu Xi: “Huh?!”

The King of Qi glanced at him and said, "Why don't you move quickly? I don't know martial arts, and I won't be able to protect you when the time comes."

Gu Xi: ...

Gu Xi quickly moved the table behind the door and pushed a chair against it for safety reasons.

Soon, there was chaos outside.

The gatekeeper ran away shouting "What happened, what happened?"

There were hurried footsteps, screams, the sound of swords and knives, and flames coming from far away. The child next door was scared and burst into tears.

Gu Xi had never imagined that one day she would experience such an exciting scene.

He asked in a trembling voice: "My Lord, are your people coming to rescue us?"

The King of Qi continued to look calm: "Yes."

Although his tone was calm, his eyes were fixed on the door and he was actually a little nervous.

"Take the people inside away!"

Suddenly the voice of the bandit leader was heard.

Then there was the sound of a group of people coming up to open the door.

"Boss, the door is blocked!"

"Kick it away!"

boom--

boom--

boom--

Gu Xi felt like her heart was about to jump out of her throat.

"My Lord, where is Suifeng?"

King Qi stood in front of Gu Xi and said firmly: "He will definitely come back, don't be afraid!"

"what--"

Several screams were heard outside the door.

After a moment, the people at the door seemed to be cleared out.

bang——

The door was kicked open with great force, and the table behind the door flew out and hit the wall, breaking into pieces.

The noise frightened both King Qi and Gu Xi.

Especially Gu Xi, who was stunned.

If he and the King of Qi had not stood far away from the door, they would have probably met the King of Hell by now!

He poked his head out from behind King Qi.

He saw a handsome man standing at the door. From his angle, he could just see the red mole between Ji Wanning's eyebrows.

Holy shit! He’s actually a guy?!
