Traveling through troubled times: Princess disguises herself as a man and becomes a soldier to earn

For a moment, the cave was filled with ambiguous sounds.

Jiang Li heard the voice before he got close. He was confused for a moment. After he reacted, his eyes fell on the mountain wall and the caves, feeling a little embarrassed.

Neither advancing nor retreating.

In the first cave, the tall man roared, his spine went numb, and he fell on the woman. The woman under him had a pale face and empty eyes, without a trace of life.

After pulling away, he reached out and touched her. He noticed that the woman's face was a little cold, and snorted softly: "Hey, are you okay? You will be my woman from now on. You must learn to be obedient and serve me well, and it will naturally not hurt so much."

The man was talking to himself, and when he saw no response, he raised the torch and moved closer. He saw that the woman's eyes were wide open, her pupils were dilated, and she seemed to have died.

The man was so scared that his hands were shaking. He raised his hand and placed it on her neck with trembling hands. He could not feel any pulse. He was completely panicked. He lowered his head and saw that the woman's thigh was covered in blood.

He... thought the woman was aroused, but it turned out to be all blood. That meant he had been fucking a dead person. It was over, he had fucked a dead person. The boss would definitely not let him go.

His face was full of regret. How could he lose control? If he had been gentler, no one would have died. Now was not the time to regret. He had to dispose of the body quickly.

The man put on his clothes, pulled up his pants, bent down, picked up the woman, and walked towards the edge of the cliff. A shadow passed by behind him, realized what the man was going to do, knocked the man unconscious, and kicked him off the cliff.

He looked down at the naked woman, took out clothes from the space, quickly helped her put them on, listened to the weak heartbeat, and flew away with her in his arms.

After returning to the room, I cleaned the person's body and was relieved to see that the bleeding had stopped.

Afraid of being discovered, Jiang Li could only hide the person in the woodshed and wait until daybreak, and let Yaya look after him. There were very few people here, so as long as he was careful, he should not be discovered.

Soon it was daybreak. Jiang Li took Yaya to the woodshed while Mu Qingchen was still here. He briefly explained a few words to her and looked at her sudden change of expression. He comforted her, "Don't be afraid. Saving a life is better than building a seven-story pagoda."

"You are in charge of the small kitchen now. No one will come to the woodshed. Please help keep an eye on it. Be careful so that no one will find out."

Yaya looked horrified: "Sister, where did you get it from? If the people in the cottage find out, you will..."

"Shh~~"

Jiang Li lowered his voice and said, "Be good, no one will find out. I'll leave this person to you. I'll go deal with Peach Blossom Eyes. Stay calm. If you panic, you'll be easily discovered."

"...Okay, Yaya, listen to your sister."

"Well, I'll be leaving first. You can come and see her occasionally. This girl is not dead. I just don't know if she will commit suicide after waking up."

After Jiang Li finished speaking, he opened the door and returned to the room. It was daybreak, and Peach Blossom Eyes would soon be back. The man on the other side of the cliff was dead, and there were fragments of men's and women's clothing left at the scene.

Even if someone suspected something, there would be no evidence. They might think that both of them had fallen.

It's dark and anything can happen if you're not careful.

Sure enough, until noon, the outside was calm. Mu Qingchen came back to take a look, and when he was about to leave, Jiang Li pestered him and looked at him eagerly: "Can I go with you? It's too boring here."

"It's okay, but..."

"Yeah, great. Let's go. Don't hesitate. Where are you making medicine? I can go and see if I can."

Mu Qingchen was silent for a moment. Okay, this is the one who doesn't listen to others. He has figured it out. Well, take him with you, so that he won't run around here anymore. If he is not careful, he may lose his head.

"Okay, you come with me. It's for your own good that you don't run around. Something happened in the village. If you run around, someone will get killed. Do you hear me?"

Jiang Li blinked and asked tentatively: "What's the matter?"

As soon as I asked the question, I was knocked on the head. A male voice came from above my head: "Be quiet. It's okay to know so much. You will only die faster. Just be honest and don't get into trouble. In this village, as long as I live, you can live too."

"Oh, okay, why are you so nice to me."

This question confused Mu Qingchen. Yes, why did he treat this girl differently? It was obvious that he was most afraid of trouble.

But when he saw this girl for the first time, he couldn't bear it and saved her without hesitation. He even treated her as his wife. Now thinking about it, this is not something he could do.

He made up an excuse and said unhappily, "...You look a lot like my sister. I don't want anything to happen to you. It's that simple. Why are you asking? Go ahead and grind the herbs."

The corner of Jiang Li's eye twitched. He wanted to laugh but found himself looking very ugly when he laughed. He was very conflicted.

"So that's how it is. Thank you very much, sir. You won't save me in vain. You will know it later. Let's go."

The two came to a small courtyard with a strong smell of medicine. Jiang Li couldn't stand the strong smell. He covered his nose and said in a low voice: "What kind of medicine is this? It's too strong."

Mu Qingchen's eyes flashed, his ears turned red, and he coughed lightly: "Don't ask, just do your work well, why are you talking so much."

"Okay, what do you need me to do?"

"Grind all those herbs into powder. It will be almost dark when I'm done."

Jiang Li hummed, walked forward, sat on a small stool, and started to work. While working, he casually said, "Mr. Mu, when did you come to the village? Your medical skills are so good, you were not kidnapped."

Mu Qingchen thought of his family and his voice lowered, "It's been almost a year. I was going to gain experience and was going to travel around to practice medicine and save people, but I accidentally saved the boss."

"Then he was taken up the mountain. I should have known better than to save him. He has been trapped here for a year and I don't know how his family is doing."

As expected, he didn't look like a bandit at first glance. It turned out that he was abducted and taken to the mountains.

Jiang Li asked in a relaxed tone: "Then why don't you leave? I see that the boss treats you very well. Since everyone has been saved, why don't you go down the mountain?"

Mu Qingchen sighed: "You think I don't want to go down the mountain, but I can't go down at all. As long as I don't go down the mountain, the boss will give me whatever I want, but if I go down the mountain, someone will definitely die."

"The servant I brought with me is being held captive. If I leave, Qingzhu will surely die."

Tsk tsk, he is indeed a bandit and even knows how to take hostages.

"Then if someone can save your servant, would you be willing to go down the mountain?"

Mu Qingchen chuckled: "Of course I am willing, but it is impossible. No one has the ability to bring the person out quietly. There are more than 10,000 people in this village. Even the imperial court can't do anything. Who can do anything?"
