Chapter 190 This mountain...it sounds familiar.
Jun Ce's tall figure suddenly froze.
Zhai Rong blinked, putting on a pitiful look: "Ah Xu~ Let me hug you~ okay?"
Her words were like the most alluring wine.
Jun Ce has lost his mind.
If Rong'er takes the initiative...
He inexplicably untied the bindings on her wrists.
Zhai Rongyu had a moment to rub her wrists when she looked up and met Jun Ce's expectant gaze.
"You turn around first."
She remained lying down, letting out a soft, somewhat embarrassed moan.
Jun Ce gently pinched the back of her neck, and Zhai Rongyu immediately arched her body like a kitten. "It tickles, it tickles, it tickles..." she giggled and flapped her arms twice.
"I'll let you off this time, but if there's a next time..."
"No, no! There will never be a next time!" Zhai Rongyu raised three fingers and pressed them against her cheek to obediently guarantee, "I promise I will never cause you any more trouble."
Jun Ce raised an eyebrow before getting up, taking off his outer robe, and draping it over her shoulders. He then turned his back, sat on the edge of the bed, rested his hands on his knees, and waited with his head bowed.
The ten fingers, with their distinct knuckles, are interlaced, and the thumbs are gently circling.
Though I cannot see her, my hearing is even more acute.
The rustling sound of fabric scraped against his eardrums, and Jun Ce could almost see the girl slip her arm inside his outer robe and obediently tie the belt around her waist...
A light pat came from my shoulder.
"Ah Xu, I'm all better now."
Jun Ce turned around and saw Zhai Rong's petite figure wrapped in his black outer robe, which made her skin appear even whiter.
Her hands couldn't even fully extend from her sleeves, and the belt around her waist was loose. The wide fabric made her waist appear even more slender, and her jet-black hair cascaded down her robes like a waterfall.
There is an indescribable, languid beauty to it.
Jun Ce suddenly realized that she was only wearing a bodice underneath.
Most of her exposed skin clung to his clothes, the girl's fragrance blending seamlessly with the scent of his outer robe...
He swallowed hard.
It's even worse than being naked...
Jun Ce suddenly turned his head and felt a burning sensation on the tip of his nose.
He immediately used his internal energy to suppress the rising blood pressure.
Zhai Rongyu, however, amusedly turned his head back to him. "Why isn't A-Xu looking at me?"
But her fingertips swiftly slapped a freezing talisman onto his shoulder.
Her clear, mischievous gaze met the dark swirling in his eyes. Zhai Rongyu was slightly taken aback, sensing a dangerous aura for some reason. She abruptly released her hand, only to have her fingertips gripped by his large hand.
"You, how can you move?!" Zhai Rongyu was shocked, her almond-shaped eyes wide open.
Why did my talisman stop working?
“With strong internal energy, one can break free,” Jun Ce said calmly.
The time he has to break free from her talisman is getting shorter and shorter.
Now, only a breath is needed.
Zhai Rongyu's expression froze.
With my current mental strength, even my senior brother can't break free of my immobilization talisman.
[Just what level has his cultivation reached?!]
Jun Ce took her slender, white fingers, placed them to his lips, and gently kissed them, raising his eyebrows slightly.
Zhai Rongyu's face turned bright red.
"Didn't you say you were going to hug me? Hmm?" Jun Ce used his other hand to pull her waist tightly, letting her fall into his arms. "Little liar."
Zhai Rong buried her head in his chest and resignedly reached out to hug his waist.
"Ah Xu, hug me."
No need to send me flowers, they'll grow back on my grave.
[My attempt to flirt with my boyfriend failed twice. How should I appease him? I need help urgently.]
Jun Ce looked at the girl in his arms with amusement.
At this moment, she was filled with a survival instinct, rubbing her little face against his chest, but she didn't dare to look at him.
Jun Ce sighed resignedly.
How to coax?
Does he need her to coax him? He always coaxes himself.
“Oh right!” Zhai Rongyu suddenly sat up, broke free from his embrace, climbed into the pile of her tattered clothes, pulled out the treasure map from her sleeve, and handed it to Jun Ce. “I almost forgot about the important matter.”
"This is a treasure map I made. Take a look."
Jun Ce took the blueprints, unfolded them, and examined them closely, his thick eyebrows furrowing even more.
"Haimu City, Kunwu Mountain..."
This mountain seems familiar.
Seeing his solemn expression, Zhai Rongyu told him her guess.
“That day I was with Cang Zhihe. She placed a spirit stone in the pavilion. Like your Dragon Roar Stone, it was a treasure full of spiritual power, unlike anything from the mortal world.”
"So I thought..."
She observed Jun Ce's expression, paused, and said, "Perhaps this treasure has some connection with the Dragon Clan."

On the other side, at the Dragonfire Camp.
Several soldiers surrounded Pang Zhong, chattering amongst themselves:
"Deputy General Pang, have you noticed? The general has been acting very strangely lately!"
Pang Zhong frowned: "What's wrong, General?"
Isn't it fine?
"Hey!" One of the soldiers gestured towards Zhai Sangjie in the distance. "Look at the general. Ever since he came back from the woods to the east with Xiao Gu that day, his eyes haven't left Xiao Gu!"
Pang Zhong followed Zhai Sangjie's gaze and looked...
Wow! It really is Xiao Gu!
The soldier continued, "Furthermore, yesterday I saw the general pulling around and asking people about Xiao Gu!"
“Yes, yes, yes!” another soldier said, “He asked me too!”
"What did they ask you?" Pang Zhong asked, puzzled.
"Ask me who Xiao Gu is close to! Did he have any lovers before coming to the army camp!"
"Hiss—" Everyone gasped.
"Do you think... the general might be interested in Xiao Gu...?"
"How is that possible?!" Pang Zhong jumped up in shock. "Little Gu is a man!"
Everyone fell silent.
They looked at each other, and some even instinctively covered their crotches.
Pang Zhong glared at them. "I'm warning you, don't you dare spread rumors about the General! If he hears you, you'll all be in deep trouble!"
"General, you're so old, why aren't you married yet?"
Someone suddenly asked a question.
Pang Zhong was speechless.
He remained silent for a long time before finally finding a reason: "In the general's heart, the country is naturally the most important! Do you think the general is like you, with only..."
"In all these years, have you ever seen a woman by his side?"
Another person has posed a thought-provoking question.
“Not even a female mosquito,” another soldier added.
Pang Zhong:......
General, don't listen, there are bad reviews.
far away.
Zhai Sangjie stared at Xiao Gu, who was busy in the kitchen, with a sullen face.
He observed for several days and found that most of the people he got close to were familiar faces from the military.
It is absolutely impossible for him to be a woman disguised as a man.
Who exactly is his lover?
Zhai Sangjie strode into the kitchen.
Gu Xiruo was almost startled again. "General! Could you make some noise next time you walk?"
Zhai Sangjie frowned. "You're just too engrossed in it."
He took out a silk handkerchief from his pocket and handed it to Gu Xiruo.
"Here's your handkerchief back."
Gu Xiruo was kneading dough. She stretched out her arm to wipe the sweat from the tip of her nose. "Could you please put it in my luggage for me? It's right there."
Zhai Sangjie glanced at the backpack in the corner, paused for a moment, walked over, opened the luggage, and placed the silk handkerchief on top.
A familiar fragrance suddenly wafted into my nostrils.
Zhai Sangjie narrowed his eagle eyes, leaned down with some suspicion, and sniffed the pile of clothes.
Pang Zhong and the group of soldiers watched this scene with wide eyes in horror.
