After traveling through time, I married the prince by signing in

Chapter 81 Forbidden Steps

The village chief breathed a sigh of relief when he saw this, and looked back as he followed her back.

Yuan Man walked around the village again as if he had discovered nothing, and then returned to the village chief's house.

However, she did not actually stay for dinner. Instead, after receiving the message that Yuan Yi had returned, she got up and said goodbye.

"Sir, you won't stay for dinner?" asked the village chief with his eyes downcast.

Yuan Man smiled at him and said, "You are so poor that you have been eating wild vegetables and leaves for a year. How can I be embarrassed to eat and drink here for free?"

The village chief's face changed immediately after hearing this.

Tong Liyang's expression also changed.

The plates of cakes in the village chief's house had already been exposed.

Yuanman smiled, turned around and left the village chief's house, walking out of the village.

Tong Liyang winked at the village chief and immediately chased after Yuan Man.

The village chief immediately gathered people and prepared to kidnap the man.

Then, before they could leave the village, they saw Tong Liyang hanging on a tree at the entrance of the village, and standing next to him was a person they had never seen before.

The village chief immediately realized that the other party had secret guards, and secret guards were not something that ordinary people could train.

Yuan Man sat on the stone and looked at him, "The list Tong Liyang gave me is very interesting, and your Quanhe Village is even more interesting."

As he said this, he looked at Lianyun Mountain behind the village.

Yuan Yi just told her that there were people mining in Lianyun Mountain.

There is no need to think too much, it must be the people from Quanhe Village who dug it, and they were the ones who spread the matter of the Ghost Mountain.

The village chief took out a long sword and pointed it at her, asking sternly, "Who are you and what is your purpose in coming here?"

Yuan Man laughed, "Hehe, weren't I led here by you? Otherwise, how would I know where this Quanhe Village is?"

"You don't even know who I am, yet you want to kill someone with a borrowed knife. Is my knife so easy to borrow?"

Tong Li, who was hanging, said loudly: "I saw the gold medal on your waist."

gold medal?

Yuanman looked at her waist and recalled that she didn't have the gold medal with her. Hui Chengyuan had kept it in her backpack since she gave it to her.

Yuan Yi whispered in his ear, "He should have seen your gold-inlaid jade forbidden belt. Not everyone can wear that kind of forbidden belt, so they should have guessed that you are of a special status from it."

Yuanman's clothes were all matched by Hongxiu and placed in a suitcase, and then she put them in her backpack and took them out one by one when she changed clothes.

When she changed her clothes at home, Hongxiu always made her wear a forbidden belt, so she didn't think much about it and just thought that rich people wore it like that.

She also wore it today, a jade pendant with tassels of the same color as her clothes.

Yuan Man asked quietly, "An Guo, at what level can one wear the forbidden steps?"

"Any nobleman or one who holds an official position can wear it." Yuan Yi thought for a moment and said, "In fact, holding an official position is only one of the requirements. The other requirement is that you need to be rich."

"Because each piece of the forbidden step is very expensive, if it is worn poorly, it is better not to wear it at all."

"The forbidden step you wore a few days ago is worth a thousand taels. The forbidden steps worn by men are relatively simple, while those worn by women are much more complicated."

(Jinbu is a waist accessory worn by people of noble status in ancient times, and can be worn by both men and women. The jade pendants commonly mentioned are actually Jinbu. Jinbu is a string of jade pendants of various shapes (or waist pendants made of other materials) strung together with colorful threads and tied around the waist, usually with tassels at the bottom. The jade hanging from the tassel combination may be in the shape of a double disk, a Huang, or an arc, etc., and the colors are also different.)

Yuan Man nodded and looked at Tong Liyang, "Aren't you afraid that I'm just an uneducated nobleman who can't actually help you with anything?"

"The truth really disappoints you. I am just a businessman from Mingzhou City."

"So, you bet on the wrong horse."

The village chief and Tong Liyang laughed, "No, we didn't bet on the wrong horse. It's better that you are a businessman, which means you have financial resources, which is what we are in short supply now."

"Capture them and you'll be rewarded handsomely." The village chief raised his hand and all the villagers rushed out.

Yuan Man raised his eyebrows when he saw this, "If you want to take me down, you have to have the strength to do so."

The village chief sneered, "Oh, you are just a secret guard, and there are more than a hundred people in our village, all of whom are good at fighting. We will crush him to death."

Someone approached and wanted to put Tong Liyang down, but Yuan Yi swung his sword and the man lost an arm.

"Ah..." The man covered his wound and backed away with a pale face.

The village chief saw this and shouted, "Everyone, kill that secret guard and capture this rich man alive."

Yuan Man's mouth twitched when he heard this. Well, that's right, her only identity is that of a rich person.

Seeing hundreds of people rushing over with swords and knives, Yuan Man couldn't let Yuan Yi deal with it alone, so he took out the Jingyun Sword and went to meet them.

Using the light skills learned from the Floating Immortal Technique, he moved among the crowd and killed people with one sword, so fast that people could not dodge.

In just half a quarter of an hour, all the more than a hundred people were dealt with, leaving only the village chief and Tong Liyang untouched.

Yuan Man waved the Jingyun Sword, looked at the village chief and asked, "Capture alive? Just you little minions?"

Neither the village chief nor Tong Liyang had expected that she was the hidden one, whose martial arts skills were higher than those of the secret guards.

Yuan Man glanced at them and said, "Yuan Yi, tie them up and keep them alive. We will interrogate them when the prince arrives."

After hearing what she said, the village chief and Tong Liyang's eyes widened and they wanted to bite their tongues to commit suicide, but Yuan Yi quickly blocked their tongues with stones.

“Mmmmm…” The village chief twisted his body, his eyes bulging.

The prince, he is actually the prince's man!

Yuan Man put away his sword and walked back into the village. The children and women he had seen before did not come out, which meant they were all in the village.

I walked all the way to the end of the village, but didn't see anyone. I used my inner strength to feel, but I didn't feel that there was anyone hiding in any house.

There is only one possibility, they ran away from somewhere.

Yuan Man looked around, took a look, and walked towards the back of the village, along the path at the foot of Lianyun Mountain.

After walking about two miles, we saw a narrow staircase leading up to Lianyun Mountain.

Yuanman didn't need to think too much, as these were the steps leading up to Lianyun Mountain, so he raised his legs and walked up.

After climbing a hundred steps, they saw the three children and the two women in a cave among the trees.

"Come out, everyone in the village is dead."

The two women looked at each other and walked out with their children.

Yuan Man looked at them and asked, "What is your relationship with the people in the village?"

One of the women looked at her and said, "We have nothing to do with the people in the village. They captured us and brought us here to do laundry and cooking for them. They also brought these children back from outside."

"Let's go down the mountain. Lianyun Mountain is full of wild beasts. Be careful that there may be wild beasts coming down the stairs." Yuan Man had just finished speaking when the panda-like beast that she had seen before appeared in her sight.
