Quick Wear: Female Supporting Role

Chapter 142 Summer Cicadas



Chapter 142 Summer Cicadas

After three days of not being able to find the bottom of the cave, Ning Shujun simply ordered people to blow up the entrance of the cave. After it was widened, she told people to dig a pit from the outside and walk down from the inside.

After working for most of the day, everyone was exhausted.

"Princess, we have already chiseled 1,256 steps and still can't see the bottom!"

Ning Shujun frowned, then looked down at the cave entrance. She glanced at the workers beside her and waved to signal them to stop.

After looking for a while, she grabbed the rope and jumped down.

The rope stretched straight halfway up. Everyone on it was terrified and started pulling it up quickly. Some people even shouted, but unfortunately Ning Shujun ignored them.

She looked down at her feet and saw the rope moving upwards. After hesitating for a long time, Ning Shujun made up her mind and jumped down.

The people at the entrance of the cave noticed something was wrong and everyone was terrified. The cause of death of the previous princesses was unknown, because the servants who accompanied them on the trip would be accused of poor care and would be buried with those princesses.

She fell for a long time and spent a long period of darkness until a beam of blood-red light appeared. As soon as she landed, she curiously went forward to check. She felt something approaching from behind. Ning Shujun turned around and gave it a slap, only to find that it was the servants who had disappeared before.

"you"

"shush"

They all spoke in low voices, "Princess, keep your voice down!"

Ning Shujun was pulled to a corner, and someone quietly watched the movement of the red light.

One person explained, "The monster is resting, try not to disturb it, or we'll all be done for!"

After they fell, they looked for a way out and encountered this red-eyed monster. It swallowed three or four people in one gulp. They were so scared that they couldn't even breathe for a whole day and night.

"Does the princess have anything to eat?"

Ning Shujun took out the stored food from her space. Since they hadn't eaten for a long time, there was some noise on their side, but everyone was eating and didn't pay attention.

"Get out of the way!" Ning Shujun pulled people away, and in the blink of an eye the stone they were standing on was destroyed.

Because it was too dark here, these people were very passive. Ning Shujun felt nervous when she heard some people screaming in despair.

Then it jumped out holding a night pearl, and the blood-eyed monster rushed towards her. Only then did Ning Shujun see clearly that it was Bai He.

Seeing the monster rushing towards her, Ning Shujun was still extremely frightened. A feeling of powerlessness caused her to lose her grip on the mirror, causing it to fall.

Just as the monster rushed towards her, a bunch of hooks were thrown out from all directions, temporarily controlling the monster.

The monster struggled violently and was about to break free. The others shouted, asking Ning Shujun to run quickly, and she was taken away.

The chains were broken, and in an instant many people were thrown out and fell unconscious. Ning Shujun looked around for the bronze mirror.

But the light was too weak to be reflected by the mirror. In a hurry, she thought of something. The ancient books mentioned the blood of the white crane, and there was a bottle left in the Taimiao.

At this time, the monster was about to open its mouth to eat the person on the ground. Ning Shujun shouted loudly: "Hey, here..."

She said to herself, "It must work!"

There was a strong sense of oppression and the breath of death approaching, followed by a deafening roar.

As a shadow flashed by, a strong light shone down from above, and the monster dissipated, turning into a white shadow that looked like a bird.

She came back to her senses at this moment. Mu Qing pulled her in front of him and the bronze mirror absorbed the residual image of the white crane.

After this incident, Ning Shujun was unable to come back to her senses for a long time and just sat on the ground in a daze.

Seeing that she was in a state of disarray and had lost the confidence she had just now, Mu Qing picked her up and flew out.

It turned out that the rope could not reach that point because there was a restriction underneath. Now that the restriction has been broken, Ning Shujun had previously ordered the cave entrance to be enlarged. Now under the light, it is only a twenty-foot deep pit.

Then the water seeped in and washed everyone out.

After more than half a month, the person who was brought back in a coma woke up.

She stood up and stared at the bronze mirror in a daze. Mu Qing was her fantasy. She fantasized that no matter what happened, there would be a figure rushing in front of her to defend her from everything. But in the end, it was also the illusion that truly protected her.

"A Fei"'s choking voice was heard, Ning Shujun turned her head, and Mei Zi had already stepped forward and hugged her tightly.

Tears blurred her vision. Mei Zi was really afraid of losing her, but fortunately everything was fine.

"I'm fine!"

Now she had fought her way out and broken the curse. There were many guests at the princess's mansion, but she was not in the mood to deal with them.

She just stared at the bronze mirror every day. She called out Mu Qing and changed his appearance according to her wishes.

"That's good!" Ning Shujun was very satisfied.

"Hey, why are you always looking at me?"

Ning Shujun stroked the cat in her arms, "Of course I can transform with just a thought, then..."

She stared at the wing tiger in her arms and said, "I got it."

Just as she was thinking about how to make her little pet transform into a human form as quickly as possible, an uninvited guest arrived, to be exact, a guest from Changguo.

That Liao Han actually wrote her a letter and sent someone with a lot of gifts.

All the nonsense was about June, but the inconspicuous little black box was for her. Ning Shujun opened it and took a look, with a smile on her face.

"Since Your Highness has received it, I will go back and report."

"Wait a minute," Ning Shujun said, "there is one more thing."

Taking the things out of the black box, she put a letter and a pile of papers into the black box.

“Give this to him.”

"This" the man hesitated, "I"

"Okay, then go and report that I lost him. Let him find him himself!"

“I will definitely deliver it.”

After the others left, Ning Shujun wandered around the garden. It had been almost three months, and in a dozen days it would be June, and the weather was still quite mild.

Now that the White Crane has returned, she interceded and the Wu Yue tribe was able to return to serve the White Crane statue.

It’s a pity that they didn’t know that only a remnant soul was left of the white crane.

Ning Shujun held a grayish-white bead in her hand, and the faint light seemed like it would dissipate at any time.

"It's a pity that I can't help you." She played with it for a while and then put it away.

I don’t know what happened to that girl. I should go and bring her back.

I had never planned for it to happen. It has been nearly four months since the girl left, and the letters from the secret guards all said that she was fine.

Since there was nothing to do anyway, Ning Shujun asked people to prepare things, and she took Mei Zi and Chen Er with her for a walk.

Mei Zi specially prepared a full bag, enough for half a year's supply.

Ning Shujun couldn't understand, "Is it that serious?"

"You don't know, when you go on a long journey, you need everything!"

"Where are Sister Shujun and Sister Mei going?" At this time, a carriage stopped and the people in the carriage asked.

"It's Sisi, let's go pick up the sixth girl and take a walk while we're at it!"

"Turn around," Chen'er babbled.

Ning Shujun stood beside him and hugged him, her heart melting.

"Yeah, turn around."

Cheng Sisi jumped down excitedly and pulled Ning Shujun's sleeve, "Can I go?"

"Sisi"

"Greetings, Princess. Greetings, Mrs. Mei!" The person in the carriage slowly got down, looking as delicate and frail as a willow in the wind, which made people feel pity for her.

"Master Ning, you're the best." Cheng Sisi knew that Ning Shujun was easy to talk to and easily influenced, so she begged him several times.

"It's a long journey, how can your family rest assured?"

"Sister" saw that Cheng Sijie was just covering her face with a handkerchief and laughing softly.

"The journey has been full of hardships and dangers. The princess has already been very troubled. Now she has to bring you along. With your attitude, you will definitely not be able to endure the hardship. I guarantee you will not be able to bear it. Isn't that annoying?"

"I can endure hardship, Master Ning," Sisi said aggrievedly.

"That's fine"

"It's only half a month's journey, I think it won't be too much trouble!" Mei Zi said, "Then let's go together!"

"Okay, okay!" Cheng Sisi got into the car excitedly, and then lifted the curtain, "Sister, remember to tell Dad that I will be back in half a month!"

"I'm sorry to trouble the princess!"

“No problem”
