An uproar occurred in the depths of the forest, and before long, a man dressed in unusual clothes walked out with a knife at his waist, emitting a cold light.
"Ji Wuye, my chief said that you can enter the village, but I'm afraid that you cannot, young lady." When the man saw Ji Wu Ye, he slightly bowed.
"May I trouble you to inform me that this lady is here to visit an old friend?" Ji Wu Ye smiled slightly and handed the throwing daggers to the man. He then took out a letter from his bosom: "This is the token. Please have a look and you will find out."
The man took the two items and disappeared into the forest.
Luo Lingwei, who was standing at the side, was completely at a loss when she saw Ji Wu Ye's actions. In her heart, she secretly tried to figure out what Ji Wu Ye was planning.
Luo Lingwei thought about how she could get some useful information out of Ji Wuye. However, Ji Wuye, who was standing at the side, frowned as his eyes flashed.
Speaking of which, he was rather bored. Otherwise, why would he personally accompany this woman to risk his life?
Ji Wu Ye mocked himself in his heart, but still had that cynical smile on his face. No one could guess what he was thinking.
Every once in a while, the man in strange clothes would return, but this time it was not him alone. Beside him was a cute and adorable little girl with rouge on her jade carved face. Her clear eyes were like the Milky Way shining in the nine heavens. Her figure was exquisite, and she was wrapped up in a different style of clothing. She looked curvaceous and charming. If she were to grow up, she would definitely be a peerless beauty that could topple all life.
"Ji Wu Ye, this young lady, please meet us at the stronghold." The man held the flying knife in both hands and passed it to Ji Wu Ye. Then, he bowed and bowed, indicating that Ji Wu Ye and Luo Ling Wei could continue moving forward.
"I am sorry to bother you. Miss Luo, let's go! " Ji Wu Ye nodded his head in return. He turned around and looked at Luo Ling Wei, who was standing not far from him, and blinked his eyes.
"Sorry for disturbing you." Luo Lingwei calmed her anxious mood. With a glimmer in her eyes, she smiled at the man before turning her gaze to that adorable little girl.
This was a very good opportunity for Luo Lingwei. If she could find out the contents of the letter, then she would definitely be able to find out what kind of medicine Ji Wuye was hiding in his gourd.
Thinking up to here, Luo Lingwei quickly took a few steps forward and squatted in front of the little girl. She quickly put on a friendly smile and gently said:
"Little sister, you are so cute. Can you tell me your name? Big Sister can give you a little present! " With that, he took out a sparkling agate from his bosom and waved it in front of the little girl.
Communicating with a child required a lot of cajoling and deceiving. This was the most basic common sense of a modern man. How could he obtain a moment of peace from the children of all sorts of masters and aunts at a family gathering? He really needed to put in a lot of effort.
The little girl narrowed her eyes, sizing up Luo Lingwei in front of her, and asked, "Are you the woman mentioned in the letter?"
The moment the little girl opened her mouth, Luo Lingwei was stunned.
This voice? And her age? What?
Luo Lingwei's mind was already filled with questions.
"I ask again, are you the woman mentioned in the letter?" The little girl spoke again, but this time her voice was several decibels higher.
"Yes, that's her. May I ask who you are?" Ji Wu Ye stopped in his tracks and turned around to face Luo Ling Wei.
His intuition told him that this jade carving-like little girl in front of him was definitely not a good person. Thus, when he had first met her, Ji Wu Ye's gaze hadn't stopped for a single moment, and directly chose to ignore her. After all, just sending the letter here, as long as he could enter, he would have succeeded by half.
But he never would have thought that Luo Lingwei would take the initiative to provoke her. Could it be that being smart and alert was a coincidence?
"Everyone, let's set off as soon as possible! The chief is still waiting for the two of you! " In the midst of this stalemate, the man spoke first, breaking the awkward silence.
"Luo Lingwei, right? I'll see you later. " The little girl withdrew her gaze, and only quietly glanced at Ji Wu Ye, and then took the lead to enter the forest.
At this time, Luo Lingwei finally reacted. She knew that she had gotten into some trouble, so she raised her head and looked at Ji Wu Ye apologetically.
Ji Wu Ye frowned slightly, the smile on his face had disappeared. He helplessly looked at Luo Ling Wei and sighed. He reached out his hand to grab Luo Ling Wei's forearm, then turned around and walked into the forest.
After the shadow had left, the road became peaceful again. Other than the steel needles sticking out of the tree trunk, nothing else had changed.
The group of people flew back and forth in the dense jungle, rising and falling from the complicated vines and branches. After quite a while, they finally arrived at a slightly flat grassland.
The grass area was not big, but there was a neat row of wooden houses. Behind each house, there were villagers in plain clothes busily going back and forth, as if they were busily working in the countryside.
Luo Lingwei did not get any rest along the way. She was so tired that her forehead was dripping with sweat, and the hair that was scattered all over her forehead was stuck to the corner of her forehead.
Compared to Ji Wu Ye, she was not in a sorry state like Luo Ling Wei. Other than the beads of sweat on her forehead, there was no other reaction.
"This... Yes... Have we arrived? " Luo Lingwei pulled on Ji Wu Ye's sleeve, adjusting her breathing and taking advantage of Ji Wu Ye's arm to rest.
"Let the two of you in!" The man pointed at a slightly bigger wooden house at the end and said in a deep voice.
"Thank you very much." Ji Wu Ye nodded and pulled Luo Ling Wei towards the wooden house.
"Wait, I'll go too." The little girl's strange voice suddenly sounded out, making Ji Wu Ye furrow his brows.
"I'm afraid not." The man frowned, his tone full of dissatisfaction.
"I have the letter. I can go if I want to." The little girl coldly snorted, turned around and walked towards the wooden house.
The man didn't say anything else and disappeared into the crowd.
Ji Wu Ye sighed, and pulled Luo Ling Wei as he gently asked: "Have you had a good rest? We're going. "
"Alright." Luo Lingwei reluctantly nodded her head and took her hand away from Ji Wu Ye's sleeve. She moved her sore feet and then left for the wooden house.
After walking for a while, they arrived at the entrance of the wooden house. The wooden house seemed to be quite old, with mottled marks clearly visible. There was a layer of light copper rust on the bronze door handle.
The window was ajar, showing the clean interior of the house.
"Ji Wu Ye." Ji Wu Ye no longer had the lazy attitude from before as he stood in front of the door with his hands behind his back.
"Luo Lingwei greets the Flowing Cloud Tribe's chief." Luo Lingwei also quickly followed Ji Wuye's example and bowed.
