Chapter 49.3 A Fatal Misunderstanding

“Oh?” She chose a spot to sit down casually while holding the wooden box and checked it’s inside and outside.

She soon found the hidden compartment.

You Wuming：“……”

Sang Yuanyuan lowered her head and giggled for a while.

In fact, this long box made by You Wuming is extremely perfect, and if it was another person who saw it, they won’t be able to see anything unusual with it. Unfortunately, she once worked as a partner for a magician on a variety show. In order to cooperate in the show, the other party plainly told her how the props work.

“It doesn’t matter,” Sang Yuanyuan soothed him, “No one can find what you’ve hidden except me!”

You Wuming’s face was still not so good-looking.

She hugged him while smiling happily and said: “It’s just like……I’m the only one who can steal your heart from you. Right? “

You Wuming’s breathing was stagnated, and he only felt that the air in the forest was very insufficient.

“Let’s set off, set off.” He quickly picked up the long box and took the lead to head north.

Sang Yuanyuan leisurely followed behind him and saw him straining his back. His shoulders did not relax until they had walked far away.

As soon as he turned around, he saw her face was all smiles as she sweetly added: “I won’t give it back to you!”

You Wuming’s scalp numbed and he turned back stiffly.

After walking for a while, he finally slowed down. He turned his head back and said in disgust: “Do you want to be hugged by walking so slowly?”

She took two quick steps while smiling happily and grabbed the big hand he gave her.

The two soon left the white forest.

People come and go on the official road. You Wuming can’t fly openly anymore.

After traveling for half a day, Sang Yuanyuan could not help but frowned: “At such a speed, how can we arrive in Jin state before Huangfu Xiong to arrange the ‘evidence’?”

You Wuming smiled mysteriously.

“Little Mulberry, you don’t need to worry about such small things.”

He raised his eyebrows triumphantly, with an appearance as if he has the situation well in hand.

When the sun was sinking, the two arrived at a city——Fuling.

Sure enough, this place cannot be compared with Xifu. The city wall made of refined iron is at least thirty zhang high and soldiers are densely packed on the wall. It’s impossible to just spread wings out and fly over it like how they left Xifu.

All the people who entered the city were carefully checked. Sang Yuanyuan looked at the long box on you Wuming’s body, and her original confidence dropped from ten points to five points——they had to go through many post along the way, and it was difficult to guarantee that they won’t be stuck in whichever post. What if any officer or soldier is on a whim and wants to split open the long box to have a look?

Sang Yuanyuan casted her gaze to the left and right.

There are high mountains on the left and right, and if they take a detour, it will probably take a lot of time. There seems to be no other way except to brace themselves to storm pass it.

You Wuming raised his chin slightly and said: “Little Sangguo, let me test you一Test—— You and I, are we going together or apart?”

Sang Yuanyuan said without thinking: “Of course it’s together.”

You Wuming suddenly lowered his head to look at her, raised his eyebrows slightly, and sighed: “Little Mulberry is really smart! Under such circumstances, if it was an ordinary person, they would have chosen to be apart and go on the road separately. Therefore, men and women who are single will be interrogated very carefully. But you and I do the opposite, so we will easily be ignored more.”

“No,” Sang Yuanyuan said seriously, “Because I will get lost by myself.”

You Wuming: “……”

Entering the city was a little smoother than expected.

Xifu is hundreds of li away from Fuling. If there is no carriage, unless they have wings, it is impossible to arrive here in just half a day. So the officers and soldiers put their focus on the carriages with cloud beasts. You Wuming’s wooden box was only checked hastily before they waved to let them go.
