With Xue Gu here, it is not particularly difficult to break out of the ambush. No.
However, Xing Zizhou was still injured, and the long sword of the ambush soldier was highly poisonous. Xue Gu could only seal his acupuncture points first, and after breaking out, she found a place to use his power to force out the poison. If
Aunt Xue has been in Snow Lotus Mountain all year round and has refined a lot of good medicines herself. Xing Zizhou may not be able to survive this poisoning.
These people are bent on taking their lives, and they have known for a long time that they will take this path.
It seems that their whereabouts have really been exposed."
Jiu'er and the others..." As soon as the toxin on Xing Zizhou's body was released, all kinds of uneasiness suddenly passed through his heart: "Will the path Jiu'er and the others take..." "
Probably not. I think they must have thought that we would all go this way. Judging from the ambush scene, the main force must have been dispatched."
Xue Gu stood up, walked outside the dense forest, stared at the direction where Feng Jiuer and Feng Yinan were going, and frowned lightly.
"It doesn't look like there was a fight there, but..."
"But what?" Xing Zizhou stood up, took a few deep breaths, and finally managed to adjust his breathing slightly.
Although the poison has been forced out, my body is still a little weak.
He walked to Xue Gu and looked with her in the direction where Feng Jiuer and the others were going. Cang
Under the dark night, there seems to be a faint feeling of an uneasy atmosphere, but there seems to be no fighting atmosphere. What does this mean?
"Senior Xue, do you want to..."
He originally wanted to ask if they should chase after Jiu'er and the others to see how they were doing now, but Xuegu said with a gloomy face: "Our whereabouts are exposed, I'm afraid... the people in the courtyard will be the first to suffer!"
Xing Zizhou's heart sank and he reacted immediately!
As soon as he patted his head, his breath that had finally calmed down suddenly became chaotic: "Little Cherry! No, I have to...I...uh!"
One picture, and another mouthful of blood. Snow
Gu grabbed his wrist and sent the internal force into his body through his meridians: "You haven't cleared up the remaining poison, so don't rush! We'll go back right now."
Xing Zizhou wanted to say something, but the blood in his chest kept lingering. He could only grit his teeth and endure it! Wait!
His breath seemed to be somewhat smoother, and Xue Gu took another deep look at the direction Jiu'er and the others were going. After that, her heart skipped a beat, and she still held Xing Zizhou's wrist and returned the same way. However,
Unexpectedly, as soon as they reached the foot of the mountain, they saw a figure walking quickly. Unexpectedly,
, look carefully, it is not a figure, but clearly two people. Only
Yes, she is holding a little baby in her arms. The baby is still too young. If she hadn't walked in and seen clearly, she would have thought she was alone."
Qiao Mu!" Xue Gu grabbed Xing Zizhou and rushed over, "What's going on? Aren't you and Jiu'er and the others..."
"Jiu'er felt something was wrong and ordered me to go back to find Little Cherry." Qiao Mu's face darkened and he glanced down at the baby in his arms. "Sure enough, something happened. Concubine Lian...is gone."
Concubine Lian is gone?" Xue Gu's face, which had always remained unchanged, also changed slightly: "Why?"
"Little Cherry said she suffered from dystocia and heavy bleeding during delivery, so... she died." She didn't know whether the baby in her arms fainted or fell asleep. Qiao Mu had no experience at all. She
He glanced at the pale Xing Zizhou and said in a deep voice: "Little Cherry and I left separately. She was responsible for distracting the pursuers. The child kept crying, so I could only take him away first. Now, I don't know where Little Cherry is.
What's going on? We've made an appointment to meet near the courtyard early tomorrow morning."
Although the Siheyuan has just been sealed tonight, there is a saying that the most dangerous place may also be the safest, so as long as you are careful, there should be no problem in returning to the Siheyuan.
Xing Zizhou's chest was filled with energy and blood, and Xue Gu said in a deep voice: "The toxins in your body are not clear yet. Now, calm down."
Zizhou didn't speak. In fact, he couldn't say anything at all. Xiao
Cherry's life and death are now uncertain, and no one can imagine the anxiety in his heart. But now, there is nothing he can do except wait for tomorrow morning.
What's more, given my current situation, even if I go, I might be a drag on everyone.
"This child..." Qiao Mu looked at Xue Gu, hoping that Xue Gu could give some advice. After all, she was older than them, so she should have some experience, right?
"I'm afraid this child has never had a sip of milk since he was born."
"What?" Xuegu panicked, threw Xing Zizhou away and immediately picked up the child.
The child moved in her arms, so frightened that Gu Xue almost threw her to the ground. "
Xue Gu, be careful!" Qiao Mu frowned and was startled by her. Why did he look so unreliable?
"Did he faint from hunger?" Xue Gu is indeed not very good at holding children, and the child is awkward in her arms. She said
In a hurry, he finally returned the child to Qiao Mu: "My... I have never held a child." Qiao said
Mu was stunned for a while. Xuegu looked like she was already in her forties. Why had she never held a baby?
"I have lived alone in Xuelian Mountain for many years, and I have never held a child." Xue Gu was a little shocked. I didn't expect that Xue Gu, who is usually so serious, would have so many expressions when facing a child.
Cautious, uneasy, even panicked."
Well, when I was in the village, I still held other people’s children.”
Qiao Mu held the child firmly back in his arms, and when he looked at the child's pale face, he suddenly felt heartbroken: "He must be starving, Aunt Xue, what should I do?"
We have to find a wet nurse." There is no wet nurse in this barren mountain. Xue Gu looked at the road down the mountain: "When we came here, we saw some small places nearby. Although they are poor, they are still quite popular."
"
You guys find a place to hide, I’ll find a wet nurse and I’ll be back soon!”
Just as he was about to turn around and leave, he couldn't help but look back at Xing Zizhou: "I know you are anxious, but it is not appropriate to take any further action before tomorrow. You can rest peacefully. I will accompany you to find Little Cherry tomorrow morning.
.”
Xing Zizhou was stunned for a moment. Unexpectedly, Xue Gu, who rarely spoke to them, actually knew so many things in her heart. She even noticed what happened between him and Little Cherry.
He nodded, and after the two of them watched Xue Gu leave, Qiao Mu said, "Actually, Xue Gu looks cold, but in fact, she is a warm-hearted person."
Xing Zizhou let out a breath: "Thanks to Aunt Xue tonight, otherwise, I would have died in the poisonous arrow array." Qiao
Mu also wants to know what exactly happened tonight, but the most important thing now is to let the child take a sip of milk first so that he can survive.
