Peaceful Farm Life

Chapter 1397: Chapter 1398: Let Someone Else Go, You Can’t

Once they arrived at their lodging, the three entered the room and even closed the door. Meng Zhuqing guarded outside.

Seeing it was safe to talk, An Jing said, ”We don’t understand the terrain right now, nor the situation inside Jingye City. But that mountain is connected to Jingye City. We can enter Jingye City through the mountain, which should be much better than a direct attack.”

Xiao Changyi immediately rejected An Jing’s proposal: ”No, that mountain is overrun with wild beasts. No one dares to enter. It’s said that people in Jingye City have been attacked by beasts descending from the mountain. Every sunset, people from Jingye City build bonfires at the mountain edges to prevent the beasts from entering and harming the city.”

Upon hearing that no one dares to go in, An Jing and Ye Zhi’s eyes brightened.

”No one dares to enter? That’s even better!” An Jing was particularly excited. ”I’ll lead a team to survey the terrain and also check out the situation in Jingye City.”

Xiao Changyi’s face immediately darkened with displeasure.

”Husband, I’m serious,” An Jing was still very excited, eager to go and capture Jingye City.

Xiao Changyi said, ”I know you’re serious, that’s why I’m like this.”

Before An Jing could speak, Ye Zhi laughed and said, ”Brother-in-law, don’t worry. My boss and I used to be thrown into deep forests to survive in the wild for several months. Nothing will happen to us.”

”Ye Zi, you’re going too?” An Jing’s eyes brightened even more.

”Of course, such a thing can’t go without me. I’ve been here for over a year, and I finally have a chance to prove myself. Of course, I have to go!” Ye Zhi was also full of zeal at the moment.

Xiao Changyi thought the two of them looked like wild people.

”Husband.” Seeing that Xiao Changyi still wouldn’t speak, An Jing immediately drew closer to Xiao Changyi with a smile. ”Husband~”

Xiao Changyi said, ”Let someone else go. You can’t go.”

”But no one knows better than I do how to protect themselves in the deep forest,” An Jing had an expression of ’just let me go.’

Ye Zhi also said, ”Brother-in-law, you can be completely at ease. My boss’s survival skills in the wild are much stronger than mine. If she hadn’t followed you, she might already be living in the mountains.”

Regarding An Jing’s plans when she first came here, An Jing had mentioned to Xiao Changyi before, so Xiao Changyi naturally knew that An Jing had once thought of living in the mountain.

However, when An Jing had the idea of living in the mountains, she wanted to take him along as well. Now, as the Great General of Zhu Lin, he simply couldn’t accompany her into that deep mountain, which truly made him uneasy.

Seeing that Xiao Changyi still wouldn’t relent, An Jing said again, ”Surveying terrain and such is also something I’m good at. You saw those sand tables I made at the beginning.”

Xiao Changyi still didn’t speak.

An Jing didn’t know how to persuade her husband and just looked towards Ye Zhi. When Ye Zhi saw her looking over, she shrugged and spread her hands, indicating that she couldn’t help either.

An Jing felt helpless.

After a while, An Jing clasped her fists towards Xiao Changyi and said, ”Great General, This General is now the Brave and Martial General, part of the fighting force, not someone who hides in the tent to enjoy comfort. I hope the Great General would fulfill This General’s request!”

As the Commander of the three armies, Xiao Changyi’s expression was very complicated at this moment. This person was more important to him than his own life. How could he not care in the slightest about letting her venture into the beast-ridden deep forest?

Yet, he also knew that he should let her go.

If she went and returned, perhaps with a map of the terrain and knowledge of the situation in Jingye City, he could capture Jingye City more quickly and efficiently.
