Chapter 78 Give Shame a Shameless End

If you want to reach Youzhou, Huicheng is the only way to go.

Huicheng has a harsh environment and a huge temperature difference between day and night. It is known that one day has two seasons, and it is known as extremely hot and severe cold.

 Huicheng was still a place of exile for the imperial court in the early years. However, the people sent here basically couldn't survive more than a few months. Some people even preferred to commit suicide on the spot rather than be sent to Huicheng.

 Later, Emperor Yongchang came to power and abolished Huicheng's exile.

 Won the world’s cheers.

In recent years, Huicheng has become more deserted and desertified.

From a distance, you can see a desert full of dead people's bones.

In addition, there are often people, robbers, bandits, etc. nearby...

 Huicheng has long been a nightmare place in everyone's heart.

 As the sun sets, the surrounding temperature drops sharply, and a layer of frost gradually condenses on the yellow sand.

Fan Qingyao braved the biting wind, lowered his head, and led the carriage forward slowly.

Even though the wind was biting, she still walked steadily.

She even has to test it with her toes every step she takes. After confirming that it is correct, she will continue to move forward.

Shaoxuan pulled the horse and followed behind. Looking at the back of the figure in front of him moving against the wind, he would be lying if he said he didn't admire him.

Facing such bad weather in Huicheng, not to mention a girl’s house, even a seven-foot-tall man would be frightened to tears.

But look at this young lady outside the Hua family. Not only is she not afraid or shrinking, but she also knows how to be prepared for quicksand pits...

Shaoxuan originally thought that once he arrived in Huicheng, Fan Qingyao would not retreat completely.

Now it seems…

I'm afraid that even if he dies, others may still be alive and well.

For the first time, Shaoxuan doubted his prince's plans for a rainy day.

 Such a person definitely needs his protection?

Fan Qingyao didn't know Shaoxuan's inner struggle, so he walked out of the wasteland in front of him seriously, subconsciously looked up, and suddenly saw specks of light shining from not far away.

Looking carefully, there seems to be a ruined temple in front.

For a moment, Fan Qingyao and Shaoxuan tensed up and remained silent.

 Meeting people here is often scarier than meeting ghosts.

Shaoxuan was the first to break the silence, "Miss Huajiawai, please wait here for a moment while I go to inquire about it first."

Fan Qingyao shook his head, "No need, I'll just go there with you."

If Shaoxuan goes there first, I am afraid that he will be alerted, and then it will be even more troublesome.

Moreover, with the howling cold wind, the surrounding temperature is getting more and more biting. If we can't squeeze into the ruined temple tonight, only one person will die.

This time, Shaoxuan unexpectedly had no objection.

 Just when he followed Fan Qingyao all the way to the ruined temple, he changed from following behind to accompanying him on both sides.

 In the ruined temple, there were more than 20 people covering the ground in front and behind.

The strong men were divided into two teams, with three or two women and children sandwiched between them. The atmosphere was strange and unusual.

At the same time Fan Qingyao and Shaoxuan entered the door, everyone's eyes turned towards them.

Shaoxuan subconsciously tightened the sword on his waist, his murderous intent already showing.

When those big men saw this, they also tightened their grip on the various things in their hands.

The women and children were huddled aside in fear, with no color on their faces.

 The dangerous atmosphere is about to explode.

Fan Qingyao took the first step forward and said, "We need to stay overnight on this route. I hope you will be accommodating."

After saying that, he generously took out a banknote from his arms.

Shaoxuan looked at the number on the bank note and felt that he had done something wrong.

How come you have money and no place to spend it, yet you end up with these things that are not a good thing at first sight?

One of the big men came over defensively, took the banknote and looked at it, then smiled and said, "I know how to get things done, so you can just go over there and make do with it for the night."

  He stretched out his hand and pointed, and it turned out to be the direction of the pigsty!

 Shaoxuan, “…”

This group of people really deserve a beating. Fan Qingyao glanced at Shaoxuan expressionlessly, and then walked towards the pig pen first.

Shaoxuan had no choice but to turn around and follow.

 After Fan Qingyao sat down next to the pig pen, he unloaded a package from the horse.

 In it were a few small animals he caught along the way and some white rice.

Shaoxuan was busy cooking porridge, while Fan Qingyao looked calmly towards the other side of the ruined temple.

It was then that I discovered a young boy lying among several women and children.

The young man's eyes were tightly closed, his mouth was sore, his whole body was shaking like chaff, and he seemed to be talking nonsense.

Fan Qingyao frowned, not expecting to meet him here.

 The meat porridge is cooked and the aroma is overflowing.

This mouth-watering taste once again attracted the attention of those big men.

They came over in twos and threes, surrounded Fan Qingyao and Shaoxuan, staring at the boiling meat porridge in the pot, their eyes glowing red.

"Little brother, you shouldn't eat alone when you go out." One of the big men pulled out a dagger from his ankle and forced it on Fan Qingyao's neck.

There were also several big men who firmly pinned Shaoxuan to the ground.

As the young master of the East Palace, Shaoxuan would immediately resist whenever he was scorned like this.

Unexpectedly, Fan Qingyao spoke in front of him again, "If I like to give them all to you, why not."

The big man who forced the dagger on Fan Qingyao's neck seemed to be a little unconvinced, "Seriously?"

In order to show his sincerity, Fan Qingyao quickly stood up slowly under the pressure of the dagger, and personally handed the pot of meat porridge to the big man behind him.

“You can do whatever you want if you don’t mind.”

The big men laughed and said, "I didn't expect him to be so timid and afraid of getting into trouble."

Someone even spat at Fan Qingyao, "You shameful thing, get out of here."

 Speaking, he kicked Fan Qingyao again.

Fan Qingyao was kicked to the ground directly, but he was still not angry at all. He just adjusted the bamboo hat on his head and leaned against the wall timidly again.

Shaoxuan saw the big men sharing the meat porridge, and seeing Fan Qingyao not fighting over it, he didn't know what to say.

He could understand that Fan Qingyao was alone and didn't want to cause trouble, but how could he be so cowardly?

   You don’t even know how to resist when someone bullies you!

 For a moment, Shaoxuan thought that the lady outside the Hua family in front of him was possessed by a ghost.

Did the previous calmness and wisdom be eaten by dogs?

The big men shared the meat porridge, blew out the candles, and fell asleep in twos and threes.

Shaoxuan really didn’t want to say another word to Fan Qingyao, so he picked a clean place and lay down with his clothes on.

 The cold wind was raging outside, and snoring was heard inside the ruined temple.

I don’t know how long it lasted, but suddenly there was a strong smell of blood permeating the ruined temple.

Shaoxuan was already in a light sleep. When he smelled the blood, he stood up, lit the fire beside him and looked at the source of the blood. However, he was completely stunned at just one glance.

I saw that the dozen or so big men who had just been sharing the meat porridge were all lying on the ground in agony.

They opened their mouths and eyes wide in pain, as if they wanted to roar, and they seemed to want to call for help, but now none of them could make a sound.

 The women and children next to him were all dumbfounded.

Even the big men who were huddled aside and did not eat the meat porridge were shocked to see it.

In such a weird and terrifying scene, Fan Qingyao was the only one who looked calm and calm.

When everyone was at a loss, Fan Qingyao slowly stood up and walked towards the painful men.

Shaoxuan quickly stretched out his hand to stop them, "Those people are weird and unusual. It's better for Miss Huajiawai not to act rashly."

Fan Qingyao said quietly, "It's just poison, what's so scary about it?"

Shaoxuan was stunned, "How did Miss Huajia know it was poison?"

Fan Qingyao took it for granted, "I did it."

 Shaoxuan, “…”

Can you say that again!
