His Peasant Wife : Yao Ling-Chapter 407 Rooting Out The Spy 3

The spy kept cursing on the way back to his room and he had to hold his breath all the way there, otherwise, he would really throw up right then and there.

'That damned maidservant!' He thought to himself.

He actually could dodge it easily with his qing gong, however, he was doing an undercover mission ah~! He could only let himself being poured over by that bloody water! He cursed Xiao Yu a thousand times inside his mind while scrubbing his body over and over again.

Once the spy had cleaned himself up, he prepared to make sure that the baby was indeed gone with one look before vanishing from Lin Zhou. He didn't think that the other party had found any faults in him. When he arrived in front of Yao Ling's room, the atmosphere was solemn and he saw with his own eyes the physician said that the baby was gone --- he couldn't barge into the room so he could only believe in the old man's verdict.

The baby was gone and it was time for him to go.

He was gone in a flash.

He didn't realize that he was being followed by two people. Yao Ying was too angry with this attack, so he followed the spy himself --- along with Lin Jian. He wanted to know what kind of person was cruel enough to kill an unborn baby. Maybe, someone with a grudge?

The man didn't go to the Han Kingdom's direction, but instead, he chose to go to the direction of the Qin Kingdom. Yao Ying and Lin Jian were taken aback. Didn't it mean... this person wasn't a Han or Shu person?

But... what kind of enmity that they had with the Qin people ah~?!

Yao Ying didn't think that they met any Qin people in their journey. He looked at Lin Jian, asking with his eyes whether he knew something about this matter or not. Just like what he had predicted, Lin Jian shook his head. Although he had a guess that Lin Jian didn't know, he still felt disappointed with his answer.

They finally stopped at the border between the Shu and Qin Kingdom. Unlike the Han kingdom which was consisted of the desert, the Qin Kingdom consisted of dense forests and it made it easier for Yao Ying and Lin Jian to hide near that man. The spy planned to meet the esteemed guest's confidante first to report the completion of his task before he went back to his own post.

He waited there patiently, knowing that the confidante would come sooner or later.

Yao Ying's heart was beating faster while waiting as well. He wondered why he felt a certain excitement and melancholy feeling when he passed through this forest. The closer he was to the border, the more he felt agitated --- his heart was beating faster and faster.

This had never happened before.

Only when he had a dream back then --- a dream about a familiar woman who turned into a ghost...

Had he been here before? If yes, it might have been before he lost his memories --- his past. He bit his lower lip, trying to calm himself down. Was he a Qin person?

No! No! No!

He should stop thinking about this matter. This could wait. He already had a clue and should investigate it carefully later.

Yao Ying knew that he needed to focus on the task at hand.

It took more than one shichen for someone to finally appeared in front of the spy. Yao Ying's body tensed when he saw the person --- it seemed like he recognized that person... he had seen him somewhere!

Yes, he was really certain!

Suddenly, he felt a massive headache and needed to bite his own lower lip to prevent him from crying out loud --- it hurt so much that he felt like he was going to faint! Because of holding back the pain, his whole body was sweating badly.

"Ugh!" He mumbled to himself. Fortunately, his voice was low enough so no one could hear him --- even Lin Jian who squatted beside him didn't find his abnormality because he was focusing on the talk between the spy and his friend.

"How is it going?" The confidante asked.

"Leader, everything has gone according to the plan. The mission is a success," the spy answered seriously. Even though he was happy, he didn't dare to be smug in front of this man. The confidante was as cruel as their big master, otherwise, how could those two get along so well?

"Have you seen it with your own eyes?" The confidante knew how important this matter was to their master so he tried to make sure that nothing had gone wrong in between. The consequences would be dire if they failed.

The spy was a bit hesitant because he couldn't go inside Yao Ling's room to see the abortion process himself, but he was pretty sure that everything went as they planned because the blood was real. When he remembered the blood, he was shuddering in disgust. That was a memory that he didn't want to remember!

His hesitancy was gone in a flash because he was sure of himself. Nothing would go wrong. How could he know that he was deceived from the beginning until the end? Thus, he nodded his head confidently and answered, "Yes, Leader! Everything has been solved."

"Good! You can go and back to your post now! I will contact you when there is a new mission," The confidante ordered.

After that, they went to their separate ways. It happened in a flash which made Lin Jian quite surprised. He thought that they would at least talk more about something that could make him guess their identity correctly.

It seemed like they weren't simple... Based on their careful interaction, their master must have a high position back at the Qin Kingdom.

Lin Jian was going to follow the confidante to find out more --- he could feel that the newcomer had far higher martial art skills than the spy. He turned around and wanted to say something to Yao Ying. However, he was surprised when he saw Yao Ying's condition.

His face was so pale while he kept clutching his head, his lower lip was bleeding because he was biting it with full strength. His whole body was trembling and his gaze was blank!

Lin Jian quickly abandoned the idea to follow that man. Yao Ying was in dire condition ah~! He asked in a low voice, "Yao Ying... Yao Ying... are you okay? What happened to you?"

He felt at a loss at what to do.

His body's tremor started to become more powerful... It scared Lin Jian so much and he quickly pierced Yao Ying's acupuncture points to make him faint. It was so easy because it seemed like Yao Ying's mind was being preoccupied with something.

Yao Ying kept mumbling a few things...

"The Qin Kingdom..."

"Spy..."

"His past..."

"His memory..."

"It hurts so much..."

Lin Jian tried to listen to his words and get the gist of it --- it seemed like it had something to do with his past... His mind turned complicated. The Qin Kingdom's people were more ruthless than the Han people --- the royal family's fight was far more vicious.

Was Yao Ying a Qin person?

If yes...

Lin Jian didn't know whether he should be happy or not if Yao Ying recalled his memories!
