The wonderful life of modern women in ancient times

Chapter 378 Why hasn’t the National Master come yet?

"Why can I only sense two people? Are they all dead? Impossible! They took my powerful pills, how could they be killed so easily!"

The Imperial Master quickened his pace and flew towards the direction of one of the people he could sense.

Lin Xi, who was waiting for the Jin State's Imperial Master in the woods, was really bored of waiting. She crossed her legs, lay on the ground, and counted the stars in the sky.

"Master, why hasn't the Imperial Master come yet?"

Xiaohong, who was used as a pillow by Lin Xi, snorted and asked in a bored manner.

Before Lin Xi could say anything, Xiao Bai, who was nestled in Lin Xi's arms, spoke up: "Why are you in such a hurry? If you are really bored, help the master think of how to deal with the national teacher later!"

"Of course I'm fighting for my master. How else can I deal with him?"

Xiaohong rolled her eyes, obviously thinking that Xiaobai's question was nonsense!

"You are such a fool, you just act recklessly. I think we need to deploy our troops!"

Xiaobai licked his paws and looked at Xiaohong with contempt! When he was in Linshan Village, he learned a lot of military tactics from his master!

"How do we deploy our troops?"

The little bird and the little turtle lying on Little Red's head were very interested and asked in unison.

"Little Turtle is good at defense, you stand in the front, block the damage for everyone, and be our meat shield; Little Red is strong in close combat, you stand in the second row, and after attacking the national teacher, quickly return to the little turtle; Little Bird and I are good at long-range attacks, stand in the third row; Master, stand at the back, use spiritual power to attack the national teacher, and if you see that one of us has consumed a lot of spiritual power, quickly replenish our spiritual power. Master, after your boundary bead was upgraded last time, you can draw spiritual energy from the boundary bead at any time!"

Xiaobai held his little head high and arranged everyone's positions and tasks like a military advisor.

"Okay, I'll listen to Xiaobai. Xiaobai's arrangements are very good!"

Lin Xi rubbed Xiaobai's little head, his face full of pride.

"I don't know how long it will take for the Imperial Master to arrive. He may not arrive tonight. It's not a good idea for us to keep waiting like this. Let's take turns to rest!"

Lin Xi sat up, looked up at the sky and said.

"Okay, Master, then the four of us will take turns watching. I'll go first, and you guys go back to Jiezhu and rest!"

The little bird flapped its wings and flew in front of Lin Xi, chirping.

"Okay, thank you for your hard work, Xiao Que. We'll be leaving first. I'll let Xiao Hong come out to replace you later. Xiao Bai will be the third one, and Xiao Gui will be the fourth one!"

After Lin Xi finished speaking, a thought flashed through his mind, and he disappeared from the spot with Xiaobai and the other two.

The little bird flew onto a branch by the roadside and stood there motionlessly staring in the direction of the Jin Kingdom.

"Hmm? Why are there so many ghost auras over there? Forget it, let's go find the person who took my powerful pill and ask him what's going on first. Finding the space spiritual weapon is more important. These ghosts can be taken away at any time!"

An hour later, the Jin Dynasty's imperial master, clad in black clothes and wearing a black hood, glanced at the battlefield from the distance in the air and muttered to himself.

He paused for just a moment and then flew towards the breath he felt from taking the Power Pill!

A quarter of an hour later, the Imperial Master arrived at the gate of the ancestral hall where Xinghua and the others were resting.

He waved his hand, and the two wooden doors fell to the ground with a clang!

Everyone in the house was immediately awakened by the loud noise, and they all got up and ran out of the house!

As soon as I came out, I saw the imperial teacher in black standing outside the yard.

Half of his face was covered by the hood, with only his abnormally white chin and nose showing.

The women looked at the man in front of them with vigilance. Xinghua took a step forward, looked at the Imperial Master and asked, "Who are you, and why did you break our door?"

The Imperial Master ignored Xinghua. His eyes fell on Yingxiang in the crowd. He raised his hand and Yingxiang suddenly flew in front of him!

Seeing this, the women's eyes widened in shock! What kind of trick is this?

Xinghua and the other girls took a few steps forward and were about to grab Yingxiang, but Yingxiang stopped them: "Don't come over!"

She raised her head, looked at the man in black in front of her, and asked calmly, "Who are you? Are you here to see me?"

"What a courageous little girl! She is not afraid of our master at all. She is indeed someone who has taken my powerful pills!"

The Imperial Master looked at Yingxiang who was calm and composed in front of him, curled the corners of his mouth slightly, and spoke in a good mood, but his voice was extremely cold.

Imperial Master? He is the Imperial Master of the Jin Dynasty?

When she was in the Jin army camp, she heard the deputy general mention their national teacher more than once. She heard that he was very powerful, but had a weird personality and killed people like crazy!

Feeling the worried gazes of the women behind her, she couldn't help but swallow. She couldn't let these women be killed by the Imperial Master. She had to think of a way to stabilize the Imperial Master first.

She tried hard to calm herself, gritted her teeth, knelt in front of the Imperial Master, and kowtowed to him respectfully.

"Yingxiang greets the Imperial Master!"

"You are a man of good manners. Get up. From now on, stay by my side and serve me!"

As soon as the Imperial Master waved his hand, Yingxiang felt a force lifting her knees up, and she stood up straight with the force.

"Thank you, Master Imperial Master. It is Yingxiang's blessing to be by your side!"

"Since you have taken the powerful pills from our master, you must have been with General Jin and his men before. Where are General Jin and his men? Why can't I sense their aura? Are they all dead? Do you know who killed them?"

The Imperial Master's voice was much colder than before. Yingxiang felt the chill coming from him and couldn't help but shiver.

"Your Excellency, the Imperial Master, today General Jin led his soldiers in a fierce battle with the Daxia people, but they were annihilated by Daxia!"

Yingxiang lowered her head and spoke honestly.

The Imperial Master would know what happened today with just a little investigation, so she didn't dare lie to him.

"Asshole! How could the Daxia people suddenly become so powerful? Why are you still alive?"

The Imperial Master's voice became even colder at this moment.

"When I came out to wash clothes for the general, I was seen by the soldiers of Daxia. They thought I was forced to stay in the Jin army camp, so they rescued me presumptuously. The women behind me also washed clothes and cooked for the Jin soldiers! After the Jin soldiers were defeated, we had nowhere to go, so we came to this small mountain village nearby and stayed here temporarily. I don't know why the soldiers of Daxia were able to kill all the brave Jin soldiers. I just heard a little news that they seemed to have been poisoned!"

After Yingxiang finished speaking, she walked up to Xinghua and the others, winked at them, and said, "Xinghua, what are you still doing? Hurry up and salute the Master of the State! The Master of the State will be our support in the future!"

Xinghua understood what Yingxiang meant in her eyes. A wise man would not suffer a loss in front of him, so he tried to survive first.

So, she pulled the sleeves of her grandmother and mother, knelt on the ground, and saluted respectfully to the imperial teacher!

The women all knelt down and lowered their heads, not looking at the imperial teacher.

They had no respect for him in their hearts. On the contrary, they felt disgusted with him. They were afraid that he would find out, so they tried hard to act respectful.

Yingxiang secretly breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that they cooperated obediently. She was afraid that they would stubbornly go against the Imperial Master. If that happened, they would only anger the Imperial Master and lose their lives in vain.

Fortunately, they know how to endure!

"Everyone, get up! This national teacher is tired from traveling, go get me some food and drink! Yingxiang, come with me!"

After the Imperial Master finished speaking, he walked into the back room.

The women did not go in, but went about their business separately.

Yingxiang followed the Imperial Master obediently. When she passed by Xinghua, she winked at her and made the shape of "忍" with her mouth!

That meant that they should do as the Imperial Master ordered and never have any other thoughts or do anything else!

Otherwise, if discovered by the Imperial Master, my life would be in danger!
