Ji Jie could not find any other answer other than the explanation of spiritual beings recognizing their owners.
Snow toads are considered cute among frogs, but they look like frogs anyway, so how cute can they be? With such a thing squatting on your shoulders, could it be possible to become a frog prince?
"I asked, can you change the place?" Ji Jie said.
Snow Toad blinked and immediately jumped on top of his head.
Wow, it might as well be on the shoulder!
Ji Jie reached out and grabbed it, stuffed it into the clothes on his chest, and said: "Stay here from now on, and you are not allowed to show up without my order, otherwise I will make you into a stir-fried frog! Also, no air conditioning is allowed. !”
The little guy stuck out his head unhappily to express his dissatisfaction.
At this time, the King of Baishan below shouted: "Friends above, I have offended you a lot before. Please don't mind it. Let's do this. I am willing to pay a lot of money to buy back Xue Toad. How about three thousand taels of gold?"
It’s not like I’ve never seen money before.
"Give it up, the snow toad is a spiritual thing!" Ji Jie said coldly: "You are not lucky enough to get it. It is destined. It is best not to force it, otherwise you will suffer a big loss!"
"Friend, I really want it, please give me a price!"
"The price I offer is to give you a quarter of an hour. If you haven't left here yet, you have to stay here forever!"
King Baishan looked back at his men who were still in panic. He knew that attacking by force was not the answer. It seemed that he really had no chance with Xue Chan. He should think about more practical things. He had already delayed the execution of the Hun King. If he could do it for This allowed the Xiongnu king to return to Shanyu's royal city safely, but he really lost both his wife and his troops.
Furthermore, the current manpower is obviously insufficient, and the guy above is so powerful, it is better to leave temporarily and focus on the Hun King.
King Baishan waved his hand and began to retreat outside with his men.
But this does not mean that he has given up completely. He has assigned a few capable scouts to follow him secretly and send the news back in time. Whenever there is a chance, he will snatch the snow toad.
Ji Jie then came out of the valley. He repeated his old trick and once again disguised himself as a Huns and mingled among them. Firstly, he wanted to find a chance to escape, and secondly, he wanted to see the miserable situation of Rouyue when she was besieged.
Perhaps because he had suffered a loss and had no place to vent his anger, King Baishan immediately ordered an advance to the Xiongnu King's camp after returning to the camp. It only took one day to reduce the distance from more than 200 miles to 30 miles.
The men were gearing up, waiting for the White Mountain King to give the order to launch an attack.
The Huns were good at martial arts, and the rewards ordinary people received came from military merit. The greater the merit, the more beheadings, and the more property they obtained. Therefore, they were naturally warlike and never showed mercy when grabbing things.
In the middle of the night, King Baishan divided the 4,000 people into four equal teams and surrounded the guard camp from four directions. He personally led the remaining 1,000 people to station in the front, preparing to start action at dawn tomorrow.
Ji Jie slipped into the southern defense line. The poor Hun king still didn't know that he was in danger. Four thousand people launched an attack at the same time. How could his one thousand personal guards withstand it?
Ji Jie seemed to have seen Rou Yue's helpless eyes, hum, if you were a little nicer to me, not only would I not just sit back and watch, I might even help you!
Then, he quietly slipped out of the team and slipped into the guard camp.
The scene in the guard camp had not changed much from when he left. It was late at night, most of the tents had turned off the lights, and only Rouyue's tent was still lit.
He pulled out his dagger and opened a hole. Just as Ji Jie was about to look inside, the curtain next door was opened, and Achi, who was sleepy, fired a burst of "shots" outside.
This brat scared me.
After he finished draining the water, Ji Jie looked into Rou Yue's tent with confidence.
Rouyue sat under the lamp, holding a peach wood comb in her hand, combing her long wavy golden hair. Opposite her was an oval bronze mirror. The expression of the person in the mirror was a bit complicated.
"Why did it fall? What a pity..."
Ji Jie heard the meaningless words very clearly.
Is it possible that she regrets that I fell off the cliff? Ji Jie frowned and looked at the unusually beautiful face in the mirror, hoping to see something from her expression.
"...What a pity. He was able to dodge three moves and easily escape from the shackles of the Immortal Binding Rope. Such a person is by no means an ordinary person. I shouldn't force him..."
In an instant, Rou Yue's image in Ji Jie's heart changed greatly. She originally thought she was a coquettish and unreasonable girl who regarded human life as nothing, but she did not expect that she also had a tender side.
"God Kunlun, I sincerely wish you a strange love and ask you to bless that Central Plains man to survive..."
Day! Ji Jie slapped him on the head. He prayed for him sincerely, but he was fine and just wanted to watch the fun.
"Who?" Rou Yue shouted softly, and she alertly heard an unusual sound outside.
"Cang Lang..." He pulled out his long sword and pointed at Ji Jie's hiding place. Many personal guards also heard the movement and rushed towards this direction.
Ji Jie turned over and got into Ah Chi's tent, and at the same time threw out the snow toad in his arms. The snow toad didn't know why and screamed a few times.
Rou Yue happened to rush out of the camp and heard the cry of the snow toad. She thought it was a false alarm and dismissed the guards who came after hearing the sound.
When she entered the big tent again, there was a snow-white frog squatting on the bed, with a bulging belly and a pair of round blue eyes spinning in circles. It looked very cute.
"Why are there white frogs?" Rou Yue had never heard of the snow toad. She was about to drive it away and go to bed when she suddenly found a note under the snow toad's butt.
When she came closer, Snow Toad consciously moved to the side.
The note read: You have been surrounded by 5,000 people from King Baishan. It is impossible to break out and escape. Take the time to prepare cannons, stones, bows and crossbows, and defend to the death to survive.
At this time she also discovered that the frog in front of her only had three legs!
Rou Yue was shocked, holding the note in one hand and the snow toad in the other, and went to the Huns' tent.
The Hun King was sleeping soundly when his daughter pulled him up from the bed. He yawned and asked, "What's going on?"
"Father, take a look at this!" Rou Yue reached out and handed the note over.
The Hun King raised his head slightly and was about to pick it up. Suddenly he saw the snow toad in her other hand and exclaimed: "Oh my god, isn't this the snow toad, a sacred object in the desert? Where did you get it? Come on, give it to me quickly." Let me see!"
Snow Toad looked like he was very useful in the hands of the beauty.
"What's so interesting about a three-legged frog? You'd better take a look at this first!" Rouyue stretched her hand holding the note forward again.
"I'll look at the snow toad first!" The Hun King was not interested in the contents of the note at all.
Ji Jie, who was hiding outside, shrugged and said to himself: "It seems that the little guy is quite likable, but it's really a bit unfair to be used to deliver letters!"
