A Time-Traveling Mishap: I Became an Ancient Nobleman

Chapter 182 It is my friend

When will they finally give up and walk to the side to rest against a tree?

Soon, the second day arrived.

During the day, Zhou Hanzhang finally got a clear look at Jiang Mingyun in front of him.

His appearance was truly indescribable.

It would be a lie to say I wasn't moved that a perfectly respectable young lady from an official family had fallen to such a state of destitution.

But what she wanted was something he ultimately couldn't give her.

All I can do is try my best to help her get revenge.

Just as Zhou Hanzhang was about to wake Jiang Mingyun, she slowly opened her eyes.

Upon seeing Zhou Hanzhang, she quickly put on a smile and said, "Good morning, Brother Hanzhang."

Zhou Hanzhang smiled at her and said, "Good morning."

As soon as she finished greeting him, Liu Niang jumped down from the tree, frowned as she looked at the filthy Jiang Mingyun, and said, "Come with me."

Jiang Mingyun looked at Zhou Hanzhang, who knew what she was thinking and said to her, "Go ahead, your master is just taking you to clean up. I'll wait for you here and we won't go anywhere else."

Jiang Mingyun then followed Liu Niang.

After Liu Niang and Jiang Mingyun walked away, Shen Moli looked at Zhou Hanzhang and teased, "I never thought my junior brother would have such a confidante. If a woman treated me like this, I would die without regrets."

"...Don't talk nonsense. We just grew up together and our relationship is better than others."

Shen Moli looked incredulous.

Let alone Shen Moli, I don't even believe He Shi.

However, it's not that I don't believe Jiang Mingyun has no feelings for my young master, but rather that I don't believe my young master has no feelings for her.

She knew her own son well; he was so outstanding, all she needed was a Jiang Mingyun.

Zhou Hanzhang didn't want to explain; from another perspective, she wouldn't believe it anyway.

There's just no way around it; being a woman, no matter how good the relationship is, it can't go any further.

She sighed.

I just hope that Jiang Mingyun can live a peaceful and stable life and never repeat the same mistakes.

Once this matter is resolved, she will be able to return to her female identity, and then I will confess to her and ask for her forgiveness.

However, that should be a long time from now, not something she needs to worry about right now.

Liu Niang and Jiang Mingyun returned quickly. After washing up, Jiang Mingyun looked much cleaner and fresher.

Although he wasn't dressed as casually as he would at home, he now looked every bit the elegant gentleman in Zhou Hanzhang's clothes.

After Jiang Mingyun finished washing up, she seemed to brighten up a bit. When she saw Zhou Hanzhang, she walked over to her side and said, "Brother Hanzhang, look, your clothes suit me quite well, it's just that you're taller than me, so your pants are a bit long."

Zhou Hanzhang was indeed taller than Jiang Mingyun. She looked down and saw that the extra clothes Jiang Mingyun wore at her feet were tied in a knot, with several buns hanging down there.

"...It was my fault for not thinking it through. I'll cut off the excess parts so it will be easier for you to walk."

"It's okay, it doesn't matter."

Jiang Mingyun kicked the clothes and bags at her feet. "Look, it's quite fun to hang them like this."

Zhou Hanzhang, who was about to take out his dagger, stopped caring when he saw this.

"Okay, if you think it's fine, then it's fine. If it's inconvenient, remember to let me know and I'll take care of it for you."

"Mmm, Brother Hanzhang, you're so kind."

Zhou Hanzhang shuddered upon hearing these words.

She looked at Jiang Mingyun, her eyes clear, indicating that she truly thought so.

This development has been somewhat unexpected, Zhou Hanzhang thought to himself.

I should find an opportunity to be honest with Jiang Mingyun when I get back, otherwise I won't be able to handle the situation later.

"Now that we've found our master, shall we go back?" Zhou Hanzhang asked, looking at everyone.

"What about your father and His Majesty? Aren't you going to look for them anymore? I'm planning to search this dense forest some more. I've already searched most of it, and in another two days I'll have traversed the entire forest..."

Liu Niang looked at Zhou Hanzhang. She had come to Shishan to help her find talent. In her dictionary, she would never give up until she achieved her goal.

“Master, my father and my royal uncle have been found. They left the Stone Mountain a couple of days ago.”

Liu Niang looked at Zhou Hanzhang with some curiosity, "Where did you find them? I haven't seen anyone else on my way here except for those men in black."

Zhou Hanzhang felt it was inconvenient to tell Liu Niang, but he also felt it was wrong to deceive her. After thinking for a while, he could only say, "Master, you should have noticed this stone mountain. It is very similar to the terrain of Yunmeng Kingdom. We have set up some formations here to protect our country's dragon energy."

But recently the formation malfunctioned, so my father and my uncle came to fix it. The repairs are now complete, and they have left.

Liu Niang suddenly realized, "No wonder. The stone mountain is so strange and its terrain is so similar to that of Yunmeng Kingdom. At first, I thought that those people from Yunmeng Kingdom had secretly built such a place within our country. They must have ulterior motives."

However, after entering this rocky mountain, I found that it did not pose a threat to people, so I couldn't understand it no matter how much I thought about it. Now that you've said it, I understand.

Now that we've found them and they've all gone out, let's go out too. However, the terrain in this dense forest is incredibly varied and changes every day, so getting out won't be easy. By the way, how did you find your way into this forest?

No sooner had Liu Niang finished speaking than they heard the sound of large reptiles moving toward them.

Her face instantly turned pale, and she said anxiously to the others, "That sounds like a python moving around. We need to find a place to hide quickly. If it eats people, no matter how many of us there are, we won't be enough to fill its teeth."

Although Liu Niang was highly skilled in martial arts, she couldn't protect so many people by herself when faced with a giant python, so she could only quickly tell them to hide.

She was extremely anxious. Seeing that apart from Jiang Mingyun, who showed signs of urgency, the others remained calm and relaxed, she couldn't help but get angry. "What's wrong with you all? Why aren't you moving?"

Zhou Hanzhang smiled and reassured him, "Master, don't worry, this is Xiao Cuiyan's friend."

Little Emerald Flame let out a howl when it heard its name.

Yes, it is my friend.

Only then did Liu Niang take a closer look at Xiao Cuiyan. She hadn't looked closely last night, thinking that Zhou Hanzhang had picked up a puppy somewhere. But now that she saw it clearly, she realized that it was actually a two-eyed snow wolf.

He immediately exclaimed in delight, "Where did you get this treasure?"

"It was a gift from the Snow Wolf King. The snow wolves on this mountain have some connection with our royal family. I guess they recognized my bloodline and sent it over."

No sooner had they finished speaking than the giant python from yesterday appeared before them.

Even with her high level of martial arts skills, Liu Niang's heart tightened upon seeing such a huge creature.

Jiang Mingyun was so frightened that she hid behind Zhou Hanzhang, trembling with fear.

"Brother Hanzhang".

Her voice trembled.

"It's alright, it's this little snow wolf's friend. It came here to help us find our master."
