Chapter 79 What Do You Want It To Help You Do?

She waited for a while and still didn't respond, so she lifted the quilt and got out of bed. Unexpectedly, there was a sudden noise outside the house.

The next moment, the door was opened from the outside, and a familiar figure suddenly appeared in sight, which made Song Baoling froze in place.

The first thing Jun Tingsheng did after entering the room and closing the door was to look at the bed. When he saw a person standing barefoot on the ground, he was startled for a moment, and then he quickly stepped forward and pulled her to sit by the bed.

"You wear too little, be careful of catching cold."

While speaking, he wiped Song Baoling's feet clean with the handkerchief he carried with him, and then stuffed him into the bed together.

Song Baoling blinked his eyes at the person in front of him, and felt a warm feeling in his heart. After Jun Tingsheng sat down, he asked, "I didn't find you just now, where did you go?"

"I went to find out the news."

"How's it going?"

"Not so good, not as simple as I expected."

Jun Tingsheng didn't intend to hide it from Song Baoling, he had to let her know that the operation was complicated this time, so as to avoid some unnecessary dangers.

Song Baoling's mood became heavy, and the picture in her dream came to her mind again. She didn't know whether she should reveal it to Jun Tingsheng.

If the other party asked about the reason of the dream, how would she explain it?
In the early morning of the next day, the two packed up and were ready to go out, but as soon as they reached the yard, there was a knock on the door.

Jun Tingsheng signaled Song Baoling to hide with his eyes, then walked to the door alone, and asked in a low voice, "Who?"

"Excuse me, is he the Prince of Chengyang?"

The person outside the door asked back, Jun Tingsheng immediately raised his vigilance, and asked again: "Who are you?"

"The next official, Zhao Quanwan, is the magistrate of Wuzhou County, and he came here specially to welcome the son."

Jun Tingsheng was a little surprised. He didn't tell anyone else about his coming to Wu du except Jun Yelan and his father. How did this person know?
Moreover, they were able to find their hiding places so accurately. Could it be that they were being targeted on the way here?
Jun Tingsheng settled down, then opened the door, looked at Zhao Quanwan who was bending over to salute, and asked casually, "How does Mr. Zhao know that I am here?"

"Wuzhou City is not big, and usually there are not many outsiders, and I just received the news that I'm going down today."

Zhao Quanwan always had a smile on his face. He looked at Song Baoling who was walking over, and bowed to her as well.

"My lord, this place is remote. I'm afraid this young lady might not be used to it. Why don't you stay at the official's house for a while?"

Jun Tingsheng knew that the other party was not kind, but he also wanted to take this opportunity to find out, so he agreed.

The two came to the mansion with Zhao Quanwan, and the meals were prepared on the table, but the meals looked a bit simple, as if deliberately creating a clean and honest appearance.

"Food at home has always been simple, but today I have added a few dishes. I hope the prince will not dislike it."

After Zhao Quanwan greeted the two to sit down, he ordered his servants to take the wine, and poured wine for Jun Tingsheng, saying: "This is the wine brewed by the official himself. Although the ingredients are very simple, the taste is still very good. .”

Every word and deed is revealing the poverty of the family and the cleanliness of the official, but he does not know that there is a saying called 'There is no silver 300 taels here'.

Jun Tingsheng didn't tell the truth, he just dealt with it casually, after all, he knew that there must be something wrong with this person just by the empty gunpowder magazine.

In the middle of the meal, Song Baoling saw that the time was right and left under the guise of Xiaojie. He went to the backyard and released the little snake. He followed it around the mansion all the way, and when he reached a certain place, the little snake stopped and did not move forward.

"Is there a problem here?"

Seeing the little snake nodding its head, Song Baoling stepped forward to look around carefully, and found a secret secret passage.

She tried to enter in various ways, but in the end, she was unsuccessful. Seeing that it had been a long time, in order to avoid suspicion, she had no choice but to give up and return to the dinner table.

And Jun Tingsheng also noticed something was wrong when she left. Although the dishes on the table in front of him were very simple, the tableware they used were expensive items.

Ordinary people may not understand this, but they are from the capital, and they have seen many good things since they were young, and they can recognize them as long as they are careful.

The two looked at each other, and they both ate quietly. Jun Tingsheng and Zhao Quanwan even talked and laughed happily at the dinner table, like friends with similar interests.

"Little uncle, I don't want to live here, I want to go back."

After the meal, Song Baoling acted like a baby and wanted to go back to the previous small courtyard. Seeing this, Jun Tingsheng pretended to persuade him: "There is no one to serve you there, so you can stay in Mr. Zhao's residence."

"I don't want anyone to serve me, I will go back."

Jun Tingsheng sighed at the right time, and nodded helplessly in agreement, "Master Zhao, thank you for your hospitality today, I will take Linger back first."

Zhao Quanwan tried his best to keep the two of them to live in the mansion, and several people came and went, and finally Jun Tingsheng successfully left the mansion on the grounds that Song Baoling didn't like living with strangers.

Back in the small courtyard, Song Baoling released the little snake to breathe, looked at Jun Tingsheng who was drinking tea, and walked forward hesitantly.

"Just now I discovered the secret way in Zhao County Magistrate's Mansion, and I think he is very problematic, you must be careful of him in the future."

Jun Tingsheng was a little surprised when he heard the words, "How did you discover the secret way?"

Since it is a secret path, how can it be easily discovered.

Song Baoling knew this, and didn't intend to hide it, and told the truth about the little snake exploring the way.

"Your little snake...can explore the way?"

"Well, I only found out later."

"Then can I borrow it from you?"

Jun Tingsheng suddenly proposed to borrow the little snake, Song Baoling was stunned, and subconsciously asked, "What do you want it to do for you?"

"There is a problem with that gunpowder magazine. After such a long time, it is impossible that even half of it has not been manufactured."

"Do you suspect that powder has been hidden?"

"It's possible."

Hearing this, Song Baoling thought for a moment, "Okay, let the little snake help you find the way, maybe you can find something."

Jun Tingsheng brought the little snake to the gunpowder store and secretly put it in when no one was around, but not long after, the little snake suddenly swam out.

"Didn't find it?"

Watching the little snake swim to his feet, Jun Tingsheng squatted down in disappointment and wanted to pick it up, but the next moment the little snake suddenly turned around and headed towards the back of the gunpowder magazine.

Before leaving, Song Baolingling specially told him to trust the little snake, Jun Tingsheng thought that since Linger had said so, he should believe it once, so he immediately followed.

Behind the gunpowder warehouse was a barren hill, and the little snake seemed to have found something and kept walking in it. Jun Tingsheng knew that there was no other way but to trust the little snake.

After walking for an unknown amount of time, the little snake suddenly stopped under a big tree. Jun Tingsheng sensed something was wrong, and immediately walked over with light steps.

"That is……"

Jun Tingsheng's face was full of shock. Just at the foot of the opposite mountain, he saw an identical gunpowder depot, and the door was heavily guarded by soldiers.

Could it be that this is the real gunpowder magazine?The one outside is a cover?

"Hiss..."
