Although Yongwang felt uncomfortable about Daohua poisoning himself, he could understand it because he treated himself as someone else. He thought about it and said, "Girl, don't worry, I won't betray you."

Daohua glanced at him but said nothing.

Seeing that she didn't believe him, Yongwang didn't say anything more.

Daohua: "Can you tell me about the situation in your village?"

Yongwang looked at her, picked up a branch and began to draw a picture on the ground: "Our village is surrounded by mountains, and there is only one entrance and exit, which is this stone cave full of mechanisms."

"There are people guarding both inside and outside the cave every day, and they are all masters. Unless you can get rid of all these masters, you will not be able to escape at all."

Dao Hua's eyes flashed, and doubts flashed in her eyes. Even if this was a den where the Eighth Prince's men gathered, there was no need to guard it so tightly.

"I heard you talking about the escort team before. What does the escort team do?"

Yongwang was silent for a moment: "The guards maintain order in the village."

Daohua raised her eyebrows: "Your village is really not simple. There is a team dedicated to maintaining order. Why, do fights often happen here?"

Yongwang: "...Most of the people in the village are ordinary people. They just want to be well fed and clothed. How can they fight?"

Daohua: "That's strange. Since no one is causing trouble, why do we need the escort?"

Aeon didn’t know how to answer, so he simply shut up.

Seeing him like this, Daohua continued: "You said you are ordinary people, but that's not true. You know that my father is an official of the imperial court, but you dare to kidnap me. If there is no one behind you, who will believe you?"

Yongwang spoke this time: "We are not the ones kidnapping you."

Daohua immediately said: "Is it possible that you are not in the same group as them?"

Yongwang said anxiously: "Of course not, I want to be with them. I reported it to you when I found out that you stole my clothes."

Daohua was silent, pondered for a moment, and then asked tentatively: "What exactly does your village do?"

Yongwang glanced at Daohua, pursed his lips and did not answer.

Seeing that he didn't say anything, Daohua had to ask from the side: "Your village is so tightly guarded, can you go out at ordinary times?"

Yongwang shook his head: "I have been in Sishan Village for three years and I have never left."

Daohua frowned: "What about the others? They can't get out either?"

Yongwang nodded.

Daohua: "Doesn't that mean you are trapped in this village? Aren't you going to make trouble?"

Yongwang smiled bitterly: "Why are you making a fuss? Everyone who makes a fuss..." was killed.

Seeing that he had stopped talking at this point, Daohua was a little anxious. Just when she was about to continue asking, she saw Yongwang looking at her seriously: "Girl, don't ask anymore. The more you know, the harder it will be for you."

Go."

Hearing this, Daohua fell silent.

There must be some secret hidden in this village.

Daohua thought for a while and said, "Take me to the exit."

Yongwang frowned: "Are you sure? The village is full of people looking for you now."

Daohua looked straight at Yongwang: "I think... you should have a way to help me avoid them, right?" This man's eyes were flexible, and he dared to hide her, so he knew it at a glance.

He is bold and shrewd. Such a person must have some ability.

Yongwang frowned even more tightly: "Even if I take you there, you won't be able to get out."

Daohua: "Whether I can get out or not is my business. It has nothing to do with you. You just need to lead the way."

Seeing that Daohua was determined to win, Yongwang knew that even if he didn't lead the way, she would go there herself. After thinking about it, she nodded and said, "Okay, I'll lead the way for you."

Yongwang did not take Daohua to the front, but went out through the back door and went straight to the back mountain.

It wasn't until he got deep into the back mountain and his figure was obscured by the dense vegetation that Daohua took the time to look back at the fields at the foot of the mountain. It was quiet and peaceful, and he couldn't help but say: "Your village looks like a

A paradise."

Hearing this, Yongwang sneered: "You also said that it seems that it is not the case. In fact, most of the people in the village... live a very miserable life, and many people are less than thirty.

Dead."

Seeing that he was willing to talk more, Daohua would miss the opportunity: "Why?"

Yongwang was silent again, and after a while he uttered three words: "I'm so exhausted." He relied on his relationship with the bald brother and was quite smart, so he attached himself to Master Cao and usually did some errands.

He doesn't go to the weapons factory to make iron every day, otherwise his body and bones would be too much to bear.

Dao Hua's eyes flashed: "You don't have a lot of fields here, right? Each family would be exhausted if they had just a little bit?"

Yongwang is silent again.

Seeing this, Daohua had no choice but to suppress the doubts in her heart and carefully examine the surrounding situation.

More than half an hour later, Yongwang slowed down and whispered to Daohua: "Girl, we are almost here. Be careful. The people guarding the entrance and exit are very powerful. Don't let them discover you."

Daohua nodded, bowed her body and moved forward carefully.

"If you see the creek, the entrance and exit are right next to it."

Daohua followed Yongwang's finger and looked over. There was a pool of several hundred square meters a hundred meters away, and behind the pool was a huge cave.

At this moment, five or six big men in black were standing in front of the cave.

Yongwang lowered his voice: "That cave is the only exit out of the village. In addition to a few people standing outside the cave, there are also mechanisms arranged in the cave."

As he said that, he pointed to the houses only a few hundred meters away from the creek: "Have you seen those houses? The people who kidnapped you live over there. As long as there is a little trouble here in the cave, there will be no trouble over there."

We will come immediately to support you.”

Daohua frowned: "Do you know how many of them there are?"

Aeon: "There are thousands of people."

Daohua looked surprised: "So many people?"

Yongwang added: "There are not that many people who are idle. Some have been sent out to do things, and some have marched...to do things. Anyway, there are usually only dozens or hundreds of people who are idle."

Daohua: "What did you just say about entering?"

Aeon: "You heard wrong."

Just as Daohua wanted to ask more questions, a group of guards appeared in their sight.

Watching the escort walking towards the cave, Yongwang signaled Daohua to retreat: "Hurry up, every time there is a changing of the guard, someone will come out to patrol the mountain."

Daohua glanced at the creek again, knowing that there was no possibility of escaping at this moment, so she followed Yongwang and evacuated.

"Bang!"

When turning back, she was walking in a hurry. Daohua didn't pay attention, kicked a stone, and fell to the ground.

"Be careful!"

Yongwang quickly ran over and helped Daohua up: "Are you okay?"

Daohua shook her head, squatted down and looked at the stone she kicked.

Yongwang glanced at it, and his expression suddenly changed. Just when he was about to say something, he heard Daohua ask: "Is this iron ore?" Although it was a question, his tone was very sure.

Looking at the iron ore in front of her, Daohua suddenly remembered the smell of rust on the quilt before, and suddenly raised her head to look at Yongwang: "Is there any iron ore in your village?"

Yongwang didn't expect Daohua to guess it right away, and he lowered his head and said nothing.

Seeing him like this, the doubts in Daohua's heart suddenly became clear, why the village was so well-defended, and why Yongwang said that people in the village died early.

"Are the people in your village secretly making iron and weapons?"

......

At the same time, Xiao Yeyang took brothers Yan Wenkai and Yan Wentao to the valley at the other end of the cave according to the fragrant pills left by the rice flowers.

Secret guard: "Master, the fragrant pills are gone when they get here!"
