Xiaoyao glared at Ye Qingying with some resentment.
She is talking, how can I be distracted and not even know what she said?
However, she still asked the question again patiently:
"Why don't people here grow winter crops? I can't even see anything in the fields."
Ye Qingying glanced outside and said casually: "The insect infestation is severe and we can't plant it."
"Insect problem?" Xiaoyao frowned, "What kind of insect?"
"A kind of...inexhaustible insect has suddenly appeared in the past few years. It has been wreaking havoc since the beginning of summer, and it can still appear in winter. It eats whatever is available in the fields and cannot grow anything planted."
"Why don't you think of a way to deal with it?" There is such a large area suitable for planting, but the people can't even afford white rice. It is really a waste of natural resources.
"Earlier, I heard that the imperial court sent soldiers to help, but the pests were inexhaustible and not easy to remove. They multiplied rapidly, and the officials sent by the imperial court failed in the end."
"Leap Cage?" This name is so weird, I've never heard of it.
Ye Qingying explained briefly: "There are two sharp pliers."
"Same as shrimp?" Or crab?
"It's not shrimp." If it were shrimp, how could it not be removed? People could eat it directly.
Xiaoyao bit her lip, tilted her head, thinking: "Then..."
"Xiaoyao, something's wrong!" Ye Qingying opened the curtain
"Master, don't come out." Xiaoyao reacted suddenly and lowered the curtain again, blocking Ye Qingying inside!
I was only thinking about those sharp traps just now, and I didn't even notice that the atmosphere around me started to become uncomfortable.
However, Ye Qingying is a killer, and his sense of danger has always been better than ordinary people.
Xiaoyao's alertness is not as good as his, which is normal.
After Ye Qingying reminded her, Xiaoyao could just feel that there was an element of danger and uneasiness floating in the wind.
However, this feeling quickly became stronger.
Xiaoyao suddenly pulled the reins and shouted in a deep voice: "Drive!"
The carriage quickly went in the other direction.
A strange luster flashed across Ye Qingying's eyes.
This girl is indeed very smart, has a sharp mind, and her reaction speed is unusually fast.
She was able to climb from an abandoned concubine step by step to the position of Her Majesty the Queen, which is indeed her ability.
If she hadn't been too emotional and rushed to find Feng Yexuan, she wouldn't have fallen into Yu Linglong's trap.
Soon, the carriage came to a flat place, surrounded by only grass, rocks and no trees.
Xiaoyao jumped up and stood firmly on the roof of the carriage.
The killers who originally wanted to hide in the woods were forced to follow them out and were instantly exposed.
Ye Qingying's five slender jade-like fingers landed on the hilt of the long sword.
On top of the carriage, Xiao Yao whispered: "Master, don't move. This time, I will protect you."
His injury has not yet healed, and if he uses his Qi at this time, it will easily tear the wound.
Before going out, Xiaoyao warned him not to do anything unless absolutely necessary.
Although Ye Qingying knew his situation, how could he let Xiaoyao face it alone?
Xiaoyao still whispered: "Anyway, listen to me and don't mess around. I'll give it a try."
Soon, the killers surrounded the carriage.
The one riding the horse was a tall and sturdy man.
The bearded look on his face is very rough and terrifying.
When he drove his carriage to the crowd, even his voice was savage and scary:
"Jian Wuying, you killed my eldest brother. Today, I will use your head to pay tribute to my dead brother! Get out of here!"
