Abandoned daughter by a genius doctor: Sheng Chong Jiu Huangfei

Chapter 557 Thrilling
As night fell, the dilapidated wooden door creaked with the cold night wind.

Xuanyuan Yelan came in from outside with a bundle of things, most of which were twigs picked up nearby.

"I walked around outside, but there is nothing to eat." He took out a cloth bag from his arms while talking, opened it, and found some wild fruits inside.

"Let's go to the market to have a look at dawn tomorrow." Feng Yunqing randomly picked a wild fruit and took a bite into his mouth.

The taste is sour and slightly sweet.

Although the doors of each household are closed now, she does not believe that these ordinary people do not need to support their families, and there must be a certain time when they can enter the shops to buy things.

"Why don't we sneak into the palace and take a look later?"

Feng Yunqing did not immediately accept Xuanyuan Yelan's proposal.

They have just arrived in Xuanyuan Kingdom not long ago, and they are completely at a loss when faced with the situation in front of them.

On the premise that she didn't know anything, she felt that it was better not to go there rashly, so as not to cause unexpected complications and leave a lot of trouble.

"Instead of us taking the risk of going to the palace to inquire, it would be more useful to get the words out of the mouths of the common people." In terms of safety, Feng Yunqing obviously chose the latter.

The two were discussing what to do tomorrow, and the sound of approaching footsteps immediately set off their alarm bells.

"It sounds like he's not alone." Xuanyuan Yelan leaned towards the door subconsciously. Through the crack of the door, he could vaguely see a group of people walking towards the ruined temple where they were.

Could it be that our whereabouts were exposed?
Feng Yunqing clenched his hands into fists and stared nervously at the door, always feeling that someone would break in the next moment.

"Hide."

Due to time constraints, Xuanyuan Yelan quickly extinguished the fire, and took Feng Yunqing to hide on the roof of the ruined temple.

From inside the house, the only place on the beam is the safest.

As soon as they stood firm, the gate of the ruined temple was kicked open.

The leading man came in with a group of soldiers.

"Search carefully for me!" He raised his hand, and the soldiers standing behind him split into two, turning the ruined temple upside down.

They were almost discovered.

Feng Yunqing held Xuanyuan Yelan tightly with both hands, and stared intently at the group of people who were close at hand.

She didn't expect that Xuanyuan Kingdom would be so strict.

"nobody."

After searching a lot, the soldier who found nothing reported to him categorically.

"Didn't you say that there are suspicious people here?" The man frowned, very dissatisfied with the result in front of him.

He turned his head and lost his temper at the person standing at the door.

"Little one, I really saw it..." The man was so frightened that he knelt on the ground to defend himself.

However, facing the current situation, he couldn't argue with anything.

"What a waste, if there is another time, I will definitely cut off your dog's head!" The man snorted coldly, and left the ruined temple with a group of people.

Xuanyuan Yelan and Feng Yunqing squatted on the beam, and it took about a quarter of an hour before they dared to get off the beam.

"It's really no danger." Feng Yunqing heaved a sigh of relief, who would have thought that she was already sweating profusely.

"The guards outside are heavily guarded at night, we'd better not light the fire again." To be on the safe side, Xuanyuan Yelan gave up the idea of ​​lighting the fire again.

With no fire source to keep warm, Feng Yunqing who was sitting by the side couldn't help but sneezed.

On such a cold night, just sitting here made her shiver.

"Put it on."

Feng Yunqing raised her head upon hearing the sound, and a heavy cloak fell from the sky, hitting her face directly.

"You!" She was just about to lose her temper, but when she took a closer look, she put on the cloak silently.

A warm spring slowly flowed into the heart, warming the whole body invisibly.

"Aren't you cold?" Feng Yunqing couldn't help asking.

After all, everyone is flesh and blood, and no one can stand such a temperature.

"It's okay." Xuanyuan Yelan didn't say anything, opened a corner of the door, and stepped over the threshold with one foot.

"I'll look around and see if there's anything else to eat."

In this way, the two spent the night in the ruined temple without any danger.

Early the next morning, Feng Yunqing dragged Xuanyuan Yelan around the empty streets.

After all, Huangtian paid off, and they finally found an open shop.

Because the store is located in a remote place, it does not attract the attention of others at first glance.

Even Feng Yunqing followed other people to this store.

As soon as you step into the store, you can see the people who are buying daily necessities.

Feng Yunqing pretended to buy rice, trying to talk to the proprietress.

"Miss Boss, what's the price of this rice?"

Consciously or unintentionally, she scooped up a spoonful of rice and examined it carefully in her palm, as if she really came to buy something.

"It's all good rice imported from other countries. Take a closer look, it's crystal clear, and it's worth the price." The proprietress said while comparing numbers, her eyes sparkling.

"Really?" Feng Yunqing started to chat with the proprietress in a familiar way, and when the heat was about the same, he changed the topic to Xuanyuan Kingdom.

"What happened recently? Why is everyone dodging and avoiding the door?"

As soon as this remark came out, everyone fell silent, and even the smile on the landlady's face gradually dimmed.

It seems that this matter is not trivial.

Feng Yunqing wrote down the expressions of these people one by one, and felt more and more that she made the right choice to visit.

"Don't you know?" The proprietress looked at her with some hesitation, obviously beginning to doubt her identity.

"I just want to know more, besides, Xuanyuan Ye should..." Feng Yunqing deliberately avoided this topic, and did not respond positively.

However, the attitude of the proprietress turned indifferent in an instant, she turned her head away and went about her own business.

For a while, Feng Yunqing was left aside.

It seems that the strike up failed.

Feng Yunqing stood there in embarrassment, with suspicious eyes, trying to fall on others.

But once the people who made eye contact with her all avoided, they didn't want to mention it at all.

Feng Yunqing walked around the store, just when she thought she was going to return without success, someone suddenly appeared and answered the question for her.

"Little girl, you can eat indiscriminately, but you can't talk indiscriminately." An enthusiastic uncle hurriedly pulled Feng Yunqing aside.

Feng Yun glanced at the bamboo basket on his arm with his right hand.

There are some noodles and vegetables inside.

"How do you say that?" Feng Yunqing's eyes lit up slightly, once she locked on the target, she would definitely ask the bottom line.

The uncle recalled what happened during this period and couldn't help sighing.

"The current Xuanyuan Kingdom is not the same as it used to be, even the monarch is not the same..."

His eyes gradually blurred and he fell into memories.
