At the beginning, I was a rich female prisoner

Seeing that everyone was busy, Yu Yunxin told her three cousins-in-law to get busy as well. They were roasting whole lamb, lamb skewers, roast duck needles, chicken needles, honey-roasted chicken, and roast duck tenders.

Yunshan and the others were there for the mutton soup, while Old Lady Lin and my aunt helped pass the condiments. The roasted mutton was wrapped in oil paper and given to the soldiers who were building the tower.

"Everyone can take turns to eat today's barbecue. There will be roasted whole lamb later, don't worry." Jin Chen was pleased to see that everyone was following the rules.

Shangguan Jing, who was hiding in the dense forest in the distance, looked at the tower with flames shooting up into the sky and said, "Why is it so bright over there?"

"It couldn't be that they discovered that we were going to launch a surprise attack on Shangyang County and set up camp there in advance." The Bulang leader replied.

"Impossible! Why don't we ask the Regent for his opinion?" Shangguan Jing looked into the distance in confusion.

"Okay, I'll go ask the regent." The Brown leader also said in confusion.

On the other side, Jin Chen brought a bag of roasted mutton to the Lord of the Underworld and said, "These are roasted by the princess herself, please try them, Lord."

"Jin Chen, you have become more and more sensible after getting married." After saying this, the Lord of the Underworld picked up a skewer of lamb and started eating.

The aroma hit me in the face. I took a bite and it was crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. The juice was about to flow into my mouth. It was so delicious. The Lord of the Underworld ate one bunch after another.

"My lord, are we just going to wait for Lan Yishen and the others?" A Red Flame Soldier embarrassedly interrupted the Hades from enjoying his food.

"You can't eat other people's food for free." The Lord of the Underworld said, not forgetting to take another bite of the grilled lamb kebab: "Have you buried the explosives?"

"It was buried more than a hundred meters away from the tower as you instructed." said the Red Flame Soldier.

"As long as they dare to get within a hundred meters of the tower, I will blow all those people into ashes." The Lord of the Underworld threw out this sentence coldly, which frightened the listeners.

"Princess, please try the mutton soup we made. You have been busy for more than an hour. Come and have some." Qiu Shuang said as she helped Yu Yunxin wipe the sweat off her face.

Yu Yunxin picked up the mutton soup, sprinkled it with green garlic leaves and started drinking.

"That's right, Yunshan, you guys might have opened a mutton offal soup shop before." Yu Yunxin praised Yunshan and the others while drinking.

"Cousin, can we open a barbecue restaurant after we return to Beijing?" Leng Shuang said with a smile.

Yu Yunxin picked up a chicken leg roasted by Leng Shuang and tasted it. She nodded and said, "My cousin wants to open a barbecue restaurant in Beijing?"

"She also said she wanted to open a plush doll store?" Li Wan teased.

"Not bad. The roasted chicken legs are well roasted and not burnt. That's an improvement." Yu Yunxin didn't answer, but took a bite and said, "Okay, we'll open a few more stores when we get back to Beijing."

The group's fantasy of a bright future was suddenly interrupted by an explosion.

"What's going on?" Li Wan asked in surprise.

Everyone heard the explosion and looked in the direction where the explosion came from.

"It was the Bulang tribe's iron-eating beast cavalry who turned off the lights." After Jin Chen shouted, even the lights in the tower went out immediately.

"What should the princess do?" Yunshan asked.

"Bring your weapons and let's go take a look." Yu Yunxin said, and suddenly four dark shadows rushed towards them.

Leng Shuang looked at the half-human-high black shadow and yelled, "Strange...monster."

They did not attack anyone but went towards the grilled lamb skewers beside the fire, and then I could see clearly.

The three cousins ​​were frightened by the black-haired monster with a bronze mask on its face and retreated to the old lady's side. Cheng also protected the three daughters-in-law behind her with a knife and a shovel.

"They want to eat lamb skewers! Haiwang, do you have any drugs on you?" Yu Yunxin asked Haiwang while holding an umbrella in one hand and preparing to attack.

"Princess, these are mandrills from the Bulang tribe. You want to confuse them. The daggers in their hands are poisoned. They are agile and we are no match for them." After saying that, he found a few butterflies and took some of the powder from them.

Hai Wang also took out a packet of powder from his pocket and said, "This is a drug for knockout."

At Yu Yunxin's signal, they sprinkled the sleeping pills on the lamb skewers on the grill beside them, and the five of them headed towards the mandrill.

At this time, the mandrills saw the kebabs and stuffed them into their sharp mouths under the masks and ate them voraciously. Regardless of whether the kebabs thrown to them were poisonous or not, they took them and continued to eat them. Soon, they fell down one by one.

"The princess can really do it?" Yunshan smiled as he looked at the mandrill lying on the ground.

"What are you waiting for? Find some thicker hemp ropes to tie them up." Upon seeing this, Yu Tinghai immediately instructed the constables and yamen runners who were helping.

Several people took the hemp rope under the tower and walked over to tie up the unconscious mandrill tightly like a bundle of cargo.

Yu Yunxin came to Cheng and gave the remaining drugs to the three cousins, saying, "You stay here to protect grandma. If the mandrill appears again, use drugs."

Just as she was about to leave, Old Lady Lin grabbed her hand. She took out a dagger from her waist and handed it to Yu Yunxin, saying, "Xin'er, be careful."

Yu Yunxin took the dagger and nodded, then walked towards Yu Tinghai and said, "I'll take Qiu Shuang and the experts from Yanyu Manor to take a look at the front. Don't worry, our Qinggong skills are very good."

Yu Tinghai nodded and said, "Okay, I'll protect the tower here."

After saying that, he brought the five people to a place not far from the explosion, and saw the bodies of more than a dozen iron-eating beasts that were blown to pieces.

There were sounds of fighting in the distance. "The princess is Shangguan Jing, and she and Lulian are over there." Qionglou said with his excellent hearing.

He said as he walked ahead to lead the way, "Princess and the Gu Master, please be careful."

"We must not let Shangguan Jing and Lulian go." Yu Yunxin said and then summoned out colorful poisonous butterflies from the colorful bracelet that could fight against the poisonous insects. These butterflies were large in size and saw the poisonous insects as if they were food. They liked the poisonous insects the most.

"Let's deal with the Gu Master hiding in the dark first." Yu Yunxin said as she followed the butterfly while walking and hiding.

At this moment, the Eighteen Red Flame Army led by the Hades Lord was fighting against the leader of the Bulang tribe. When he saw that several of his iron-eating beasts had died, the rest of them abandoned their cavalry and ran away. Now he didn't know where to find them, and calling out secret words was useless.

"Chief, let's run!" A Brown cavalryman looked at the group of people in front of him and threw thunder bombs in his hands, so scared that he retreated more than 20 meters.

The leader of the Brown tribe also had this plan and said, "The giant elephant tribe is behind us. Let's escape to their side first. I don't believe that the explosive things in their hands can deal with the giant elephants with thick skin and flesh." After saying that, he took the lead and ran away.

"My lord, what should we do if they run away?" Zhu Que looked at the Lord of the Underworld and asked.

"Let him run!" he said as he drew the bow and arrow in his hand.

With a "whoosh" sound, an arrow shot at the leader of the Bulang tribe.

The leader of the Bulang tribe fell down at once. His men immediately lifted him up, checked his breath and found that he was still breathing. Then they carried him on their backs and continued running.

"Control the beasts! Today I will let them taste the ambitions of animals." The Lord of the Underworld touched the little wolf standing on his shoulder.

The little wolf immediately understood that the sound of wolves howling one after another broke the darkness of the forest, and the birds and beasts resting in the forest were frightened by the sound and fled and flew away in all directions.

"Wolf howling!" Yu Yunxin said as she listened to the wolf howling.

"Princess, these wolves are not coming towards us, but to the other side." Qionglou said after listening to the voice.

"Are the Brown people calling the wolves?" asked Yunshan.

"It's not the Lord of the Underworld of Shura Sect and his eighteen Red Flame Soldiers. They are dealing with the fleeing Bulang people. They are too far away and I can't hear them clearly." Qionglou said.

"How many Gu Masters are there?" Yu Yunxin asked.

"I don't know I can't hear it. After all, the Gu Master's actions are covered by snakes and insects." Qionglou shook his head.

"No matter what, we will go find Shangguan Jing and Lu Lian." Yu Yunxin had a plan in mind. She had the Seven-Colored Butterfly to deal with the Gu Master, so she could escape under their noses.

"Your Highness, those useless trash from the Bulang tribe have all run towards the ambush place of the Giant Elephant tribe." Shangguan Hongyan said.

Upon hearing this, Lan Yishen angrily flashed to Shangguan Hongyan's side.

Shangguan Hongyan thought that this cold regent was going to do something to her, but soon Lan Yishen grabbed her neck tightly with a big hand. Lan Yishen looked at Shangguan Hongyan with a venomous look and said, "It's not your turn to say anything about my people in front of me."

Shangguan Hongyan was strangled so hard that she couldn't say a word and was about to suffocate.

Shangguan Jing immediately knelt at Lan Yishen's feet and said, "Your Majesty, please spare Yan'er! I will teach her well."

Upon hearing this, Lan Yishen directly threw Shangguan Hongyan to Shangguan Jing. Shangguan Hongyan immediately felt much more relaxed and breathed in deep gulps of air.

"Yes, it was you who came up with the idea for us to attack Shangyang County. Now my people are ambushed. Tell me if you did it on purpose." Lan Yishen glared at the two father and daughter on the ground.

Lan Yishen had long hated this father and daughter duo. He knew that Shangguan Jing and Shangguan Hongcheng had killed more than a hundred Gu Masters under his command, and he had long wanted to avenge his people.

These sounds were heard by the people in Qiong Lou. Yu Yunxin thought that now they could deal with Shangguan Jing without bloodshed.

"That's right. You launched a surprise attack on our Shangyang County. My Yanyu Manor had already received the news from Shangguan Jing. The people who ambushed you were from my Yanyu Manor and Shura Sect. We have 100,000 troops behind us, waiting for the Regent of Nan Dian Kingdom to launch a surprise attack." Yanluo stood up from the darkness and said.

Lan Yishen glanced at Yanluo and asked, "Are you from Yanyu Manor?"

Yanluo smiled and said, "That's right. What's wrong, Regent? I know a lot of secrets about your Gu Masters. Do you want to know who told me?"

"Yanluo, don't try to sow discord. The prince is trying to sow discord among them all!" Shangguan Hongyan said.

"Oh! Then Lu Lian, didn't you tell me yesterday that the regent of Southern Dian Kingdom is Lan Yishen, who is the most powerful Gu Master in Southern Dian Kingdom, and he has the Golden Snake Gu." Yanluo said with a smile.

"You're talking nonsense. My father and I have been in the military camp and have never gone out." Shangguan Jing replied.

"I saw you two release a carrier pigeon. Your Highness, don't trust him." said the Gu Master standing beside him.

Upon hearing this, Lan Yishen immediately looked at Shangguan Jing and his daughter, "You are indeed spies. The strange king even sent more than a hundred poison masters to you to practice evil skills. Is this how you treat my father?" After saying that, he immediately controlled the golden snake poison in his hand to swim towards Shangguan Hongyan.

Shangguan Hongyan was killed with one bite. Shangguan Jing immediately called out the blood bats to fly towards Lan Yishen, but these blood bats had no effect on the Gu Masters. The two Gu Masters beside Lan Yishen waved their hands and the Gu insects immediately bit the blood bats clean.

When Shangguan Jing saw that Lan Yishen wanted to run away, he flashed in front of Shangguan Hong and slapped Shangguan Jing on the chest.

Shangguan Jing said with a smile: "My son will avenge me." Then he fell down.

"Your Highness, what should we do with these two bodies?" asked the subordinate.

"Take their bodies away and practice making corpse puppets." Lan Yishen said coldly and looked at Yanluo, but there was no trace of Yanluo.

"Princess, shall we go out and fight the Gu Master?" Yanluo asked while hiding in the bushes.

Yu Yunxin also saw what happened just now. Lan Yishen had more than a hundred Gu Masters around him. How could the six of them be his opponents? She made a silent gesture and secretly recalled all the colorful butterflies into her bracelet. Just kidding, even if she summoned all the butterflies from her colorful bracelet, she would not be a match for these two hundred Gu Masters. She had to save her life. As long as she hid in the bushes, no one would find her.

The sounds of explosions and wolf howls could be heard here.

"Your Highness is from the Bulang tribe and they are being attacked by wolves. Let's go and help!" said the Gu Master beside Lan Yishen.

"Let's go and take a look." Lan Yishen said and waved his hand, and a group of black-robed Gu Masters left in a mighty manner.

At this time, Qiu Shuang was so scared that she bit Yunshan's hand and bit her white hand until it bled.

After everyone left, Qiu Shuang said embarrassedly, "Sister Yunshan, I'm sorry, I was too excited just now." Then she tore off a corner of her clothes and gave it to Yunshan, wanting to bandage her.

Yunshan said, "It's okay. I was afraid you might have made a noise just now because you didn't bite hard. It's okay."

Yu Yunxin looked back at the conversation between the two and said, "The Gu Master is very sensitive. He might have been attracted by the noise over there, so we escaped."

"Princess, let's go back! Lulian is dead." Qiu Shuang said in fear.

"She deserved to die, Shangguan Hongyan. Didn't you hear that the sneak attack on Shangyang County was Shangguan Jing and her idea. She must have become greedy after seeing so many treasures in the princess's storehouse." Yanluo said.

"Okay, let's go see the people from Shura Sect. After all, they are the ones who helped us this time." Yu Yunxin said as she secretly went to the place where the wolf was howling.

When we got there, we saw a group of wolves with green eyes biting the fleeing mandrills, and they were fleeing together with the Bulang people.

At this time, bursts of wolf howling were heard in the woods. Xiao Bei sat on a wolf, like a military advisor commanding the wolf pack.

The people of the Bulang tribe fled in a panic behind the elephants. A large number of the mandrills in their hands were killed by wolves. At the same time, Lan Yishen's Gu Master also arrived.

Looking at the corpses of the Bulang people and monkeys all over the ground, he said, "We have been tricked by Shangguanjing. There is still an ambush in Shangyang County. Leader of the Giant Elephant, you should retreat after us."

There are wolves and elephants here. The wolves are the most cunning animals. They dare not approach when they see elephants that are several times larger than them. But they always have to show their strength and bare their teeth in front of the elephants.

"Master, what should we do now?" Zhu asked, standing behind the wolf pack.

"Retreat!" The Hades Lord said as he looked at the retreating Brown people. He blew a whistle and the little wolf quickly returned to the Hades Lord's shoulder. With a wolf howl, all the wolves in the woods scattered.

When the Hades' twenty-odd people retreated, they saw Yu Yunxin and others standing there.

"It seems that the princess didn't sleep tonight!" The Lord of the Underworld looked at Yu Yunxin and said.

"Thank you all so much for tonight." Yu Yunxin walked over and thanked everyone.
