Allure of a Country Maiden
Chapter 361 - 359

Chapter 361: 359

After Shangguan Xuanyi left, Xiao’er sat in the room carefully sorting through the information she had received.

Brother Shangguan said the deployment map has always been kept by General Li and is still with him now.

If the deployment map wasn’t stolen by people from Xiyue Country, then someone must have seen it, memorized it, and then drawn it out.

Who in the military camp has such a sharp memory?

She didn’t know the people in the military camp, and Brother Shangguan also said that he hadn’t found anyone like that. Besides, wouldn’t it be more promising to take the Imperial Examination with such an ability instead of staying in the military camp?

Civil servants certainly have a better life than generals.

Never mind, stop thinking and start farming in the Worry-Free Space.

Growing more crops and gathering more medicinal materials are the most practical things to do.

It was only when she entered the space that Xiao’er remembered the golden python she had banished, she had forgotten to care about it.

"Xiao Huang, what are you doing?" Xiao’er communicated telepathically with the golden python.

"Watching people draw. My Lady, this human is as remarkable as you. After reading your book, he can draw it directly from memory." The golden python was very interested in watching Yang Yong draw.

"What did you say!" Xiao’er’s high-pitched voice startled the animals in the space, causing them to scatter around in panic.

Miss, don’t be so agitated, this is a peaceful world filled with birdsongs and flower fragrances!

"My lady, I was wrong, he’s not as remarkable as you, don’t get so excited! Xiao Tian is still waiting to hatch! What if it gets scared and goes back into its shell due to your loud voice?" The golden python thought that Xiao’er was upset about someone being as remarkable as her.

Xiao’er did not respond to its misunderstanding.

"Is he copying from my book right now?" Xiao’er adjusted her excited emotions and slowed her pace of speech.

Why get so excited? It was even less meaningful than before.

"No, he is drawing. He has copied more than twenty of your books. Today after returning the books to the bookstore he took another book home. He started drawing after reading the book."

He had copied more than twenty books already?!

"What is he drawing?" Isn’t it strange that he is drawing after reading a book instead of copying it?

"I don’t know, it seems like he’s drawing a snake."

He can’t be drawing a snake!

The winding path is as twisty as a snake! This phrase popped up in Xiao’er’s mind!

"Xiao Huang, can you bring his drawings back to me to look at after he falls asleep tonight?"

"My Lady, do you want to see what he has drawn?"

"Yes!"

"He has a habit of sleeping with his finished drawings under his pillow. He is very alert when he sleeps. He woke up once when I crawled by him." It will be quite challenging to sneak the drawing out!

There are only two reasons for a person to be so vigilant. The first is that they are often attacked in secret; the second is that they have many secrets that can’t be revealed! He can’t even have a good night’s sleep!

If there’s absolutely no choice, then have the golden python stun him and steal the drawing. That’s what Xiao’er thought.

However, this would alert him to their presence, and she was not ready to take that step yet.

Perhaps she could get back everything lost from him!

If he truly has a problem, then she apologizes in advance! Let’s play the game of the mantis stalking the cicada, with the oriole behind!

Xiao’er was still grappling with how to get her hands on the drawing. It would be best if Xiao Tian could act during the day since it can become invisible!

"My Lady, dare you look into my eyes?"

"Why wouldn’t I dare?" Xiao’er would never admit she was afraid of snakes in front of one!

That would boost the snake’s morale and diminish her own!

The golden python rolled its snake eyes: you’re afraid of me, wouldn’t you be scared if you stared into my eyes! However, the golden python, self-considered having high EQ, would never voice this out to put down its owner.

In the eyes of the golden python, its owner was a bit vindictive and petty!

"My Lady, have you ever heard that a snake can capture the last image it sees in its eyes at the moment of death?"

In her previous life, she had read in a magazine that snake eyes can remember the last image before death, letting their companions see it and seek revenge for them. But she thought it was just a story!

"Do your eyes have that ability?"

"I am a high-end snake!"

A high-end snake? This description is incredible!

"So capturing an image with your eyes doesn’t kill you, right?" It would be unacceptable to let the golden python die for a drawing, even if she was afraid of snakes.

"No."

"That’s good! But why didn’t you tell me earlier?" It made her think so much! This wasn’t another case of the goose situation, where there was no answer because there was no question, was it?!

The golden python’s high emotional intelligence led it to keep silent: isn’t it all because you are afraid of snakes!

"My lady, after he finishes drawing, I will use my eyes to remember and show you!" It’s better to change the subject!

"Great!" Now Xiao’er was satisfied. She hadn’t expected the golden python’s eyes to be like a camera, able to capture images!

Indeed, Worry-Free Space is truly worry-free!

Xiao’er didn’t let the golden python return until late at night after her busy work in the space.

If it weren’t a snake, she really wanted to walk up and hug it, saying, "Comrade, you’ve worked hard!".

Reality check, better not!

After she took the golden python into the space, it returned to its original form.

Xiao’er swallowed a bit inconspicuously, "A Huang, let’s begin!"

It wasn’t that the lady was afraid, she was just so nervous that she called someone else the wrong name.

The golden python directly put its huge head in front of Xiao’er, scaring her so much that she almost screamed and ran out of the space!

But in the end, she calmed down. This giant thing was indeed big and scary! But she’s its owner, what was there to be scared of! Xiao’er consoled herself.

The golden python held back a laugh, the mistress is really quite easily scared.

Xiao’er decided to squint with one eye and look into its huge eye. There was indeed a picture! She had forgotten her fear and was focusing on observing the picture in the snake’s eye.

"Okay, you can return to your small form now!"

Xiao’er came to the study room in the space and started to reproduce the picture she saw, but this time in reverse.

It was a detailed map of the grain supply route! A beautifully decorated map of the grain supply route!

The exquisite painting, with its intricate little path hidden among the elegant elements. If one didn’t know in advance and look with a purpose, who would know that this contained a map of the grain supply route!

Of course, this was only Xiao’er’s guess. Whether it was a map of grain transportation or the route for grease powder still needed verification.

Xiao’er separately drew the winding paths and removed the beautiful elements.

She took out the map of Minze Country, and the maps of various counties and prefectures, to carefully compare them.

The map she got from Shangguan Xuanyi. A map is a military secret in this era, and very few people in the entire Imperial Court could possess a complete map of Minze Country.

Xiao’er was so thorough that by the time she finished, the flowers in the space had bloomed and withered, the fruits had gone from green to yellow.

The grain troop’s route takes shortcuts. There’s a thick forest along the way. After crossing the forest and a river, it’s Xiyue Country!

In Yang Yong’s painting, he depicted a skull at this location.
