Gui Shang suddenly stopped, got off his sword, looked at the entrance to the No Man's Ridge in front of him, and squinted his eyes slightly, his eyes dark and unclear.

Soon, she remounted her sword and flew higher than before.

The fog in No Man's Ridge during the day is much less than that at night. If it is difficult to walk in No Man's Ridge at night, it can still be seen clearly within at least three meters around it during the day.

But even so, it is still easy to get lost in such a rugged and weird place. People who are familiar with the terrain here only dare to enter the outer areas of the No Man's Ridge during the day, and no one dares to go inside.

The smiling tiger who was running wildly at this moment did not forget his escape route while running for his life.

But what Smiling Tiger, who had only heard of but never been to No Man's Ridge, didn't know was that memorizing the route here was the key to getting lost!

Gui Shang knew something was wrong with the fog since he had stepped in before. Most of the people who had gotten lost in the No Man's Ridge had stayed here for too long and absorbed too much fog.

When talking to An Ran, the other party once said that the fog in the No Man Ridge Mountains has its own hallucinogenic ingredients. Although it is dispersed in the fog and is extremely thin, it cannot be underestimated!

Among them, An Ran also said that the deeper the fog goes, the more intense the hallucinogenic ingredients become. However, because people are unprepared for the fog here, even though it has been diluted, the hallucinogenic ingredients will accumulate in the body for a long time. more.

The various creatures living inside have long been accustomed to all this, and they are the rare beings in the uninhabited mountain range who are not affected by this fog.

Gui Shang knew that the people from Mingge were chasing people, but she was not very worried about them. After all, these people's bodies had all undergone physical transformation to a greater or lesser extent, and they were no longer the same as before.

After thinking about it, he returned to business a little faster, and the figure of the man who had been chasing after Mingge was right in front.

Just when everyone in Ming Pavilion was annoyed and about to be chased away, Gui Shang suddenly ran from behind everyone, said something in a calm tone, then quickly rushed forward with his sword.

After the people in Mingge realized that their master was going to hunt down that person, they all breathed a sigh of relief and stayed put to adjust their breathing very obediently.

After the Smiling Tiger realized that he had finally gotten rid of those things, he breathed a sigh of relief, and finally a smile appeared on his face, and he even had the leisure to stop and look back——

However, just like that, a long sword roared towards the man's direction with a momentum that no one could match!

As the sword light flashed, dazzling red splashed all over the ground. The Smiling Tiger's body was shaken. He lowered his head in confusion and looked at the long sword stuck in his chest in confusion. He didn't even feel any pain.

The next moment, the man's body went limp and he fell uncontrollably.

The man's eyes were always wide open, and there seemed to be lingering doubts and unwillingness in his eyes. He seemed to be thinking about why he didn't run away at the last moment despite the fact that he should live.

Looking into the smiling tiger's eyes, Gui Shang lowered his eyes and pulled Zhan Yun out of the man's body indifferently, but the words coming out of his mouth were cold and almost inhumane——

"Conceit is your biggest weakness."

If it weren't for his overconfidence in his plan, he might not have been able to survive long before he discovered something was wrong.

——It's a pity, it's just a pity that such a smart person died here like this.

——It is both time and destiny.

But in the end, his contribution to the beasts in the mountains made his body valuable. She threw the sword upward and stood firmly with a slight jump.

After Gui Shang Yujian left, several wild wolves smelled the smell of blood and began to feast...

Five days later——

Returning merchants, who had finished handling matters in Qingyun Village, took a familiar carriage and embarked on their way back to Beijing with familiar people.

The journey went smoothly. When the two of them finally arrived at the gate of the imperial capital, it was still dark.

The reason why Gui Shang was so anxious to return to Beijing was not because of anything else. As early as yesterday, the construction of the imperial capital had been completed. His Majesty sent someone to tell her that many officials would go to court tomorrow, and she would also go with them to participate in this event. Court meeting.

Nothing else, because she is currently the only young master of the Yan Army and a direct subordinate of His Majesty, so she naturally has the status of going to court.

Even if she is a woman, even if she is the daughter of the prime minister, just because she is the young master of the Yan Cavalry Army, she can go, and no one dares or can comment.

——Oh, of course, the only person who can comment is still in the south and has not rushed back yet. Naturally, Gui Shang's court today has been decided.

Gui Shang did not return to the Prime Minister's Mansion. Instead, after breakfast, she had the suit given by His Majesty taken to the inn where she was currently staying temporarily. After changing her clothes, she took a carriage to the palace.

Soon, more and more carriages were chasing in one direction. Gui Shang stayed quietly inside the carriage, gently lifted his wide sleeves up, revealing his fair and slender hands, and picked up a cup of tea.

She is now wearing a dark red official robe, with a hairband of the same color on her head, and has a beautiful face. However, because of this dress, her previous cold and sickly feeling has been dissipated by seven or eight points, and she has gained a bit more majesty and solemnity.

He handed the tea to his mouth and took a sip. The light fragrance of tea spread in his mouth, making Gui Shang squint his eyes comfortably, feeling a little more leisurely and indifferent, without any nervousness at all, as if It's like there's no one in court today without her.

Apart from her, there was only one driver in this carriage. Due to its special nature, Gui Shang did not intend to bring many people.

Soon, the carriage doors stopped one after another at a place specially designed for parking. As early as the moment when Gui Shang got off the car and caught everyone's eyes, all kinds of public or hidden glances came over, some were contemptuous, There were doubts, and most of them were looking back and forth between her and the Prime Minister, not knowing what was going on in her mind.

When the Prime Minister saw his "loved daughter" coming, his eyes darkened, but the corners of his mouth curved, and there seemed to be a smile in his eyes, and he walked towards Gui Shang very happily.

"Shang'er, you are really getting more and more dazzling now!"

When he said this, the old fox was like any old father who is proud of his children, his eyes were full of pride and joy.

Gui Shang couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth, and sneered in his heart.

But on her face, she lowered her head as if she was shy, and her voice was full of admiration for her father, "It's all my father who taught me well. If it weren't for my father, maybe Shang'er wouldn't have made it this far..."

It clearly sounded like this, but the people present keenly felt the strangeness.
