Mu Yunhan had long seen the little actions of Mu Li and the others, and he felt pleased and touched, but he was unwilling to let them do whatever they wanted.
"I have always been aware of the injuries of you people. I know very well who can go out and who needs to rest.
Mu Li seems to be a little stronger than rice now, but if you don't raise him well, you will stop here and there will be no possibility of climbing to the peak of martial arts.
If this is the case, it will be in vain my good intention of sending you to apprentice with Elder Wu, as well as Elder Wu's hard work in teaching you.
The journey is long and dangerous, so it’s okay to bring rice, but if I take you with me, it will be a burden, so go back."
She refused outright, and the eyes of Xiao Mi and Mu Li suddenly dimmed.
Da Mi ignored his own grievance and pleaded for Mu Li: "Let him go, he is much more powerful than the slave."
Mu Yunhan said: "Then you replace him?"
Mu Li looked at Rice expectantly with bright eyes.
The rice god fought for a long time, and finally whispered: "It is better for the slave to follow the madam. The madam is a woman, and it is more convenient and useful to take the slave with you."
"My love for you is not in vain." Mu Yunhan told Xiaomi and Mu Li: "If you really want to help me, get better soon and come find me."
Xiaomi's eyes filled with tears: "Madam, I can't bear to leave you."
Since she followed Mu Yunhan, this was the first time she was separated from Mu Yunhan. After this separation, she didn't know when they would see each other again in the future.
Mu Yunhan pinched her face: "Be good, I'll wait for you."
Mu Li's eyes were red, he saluted, and left in silence.
Late at night, Mu Yunhan looked around and smiled: "I'm really reluctant to leave."
"I'll be back." Gu Fenglin said firmly.
"Did you see it?" Mu Yunhan was encouraged by the affirmation in his tone and felt a little better.
"I saw it." Gu Fenglin smiled. He did see it. He saw her returning safely and sitting in this house to live peacefully.
"Where is the medicine I gave you to keep?" he asked.
"Here." Mu Yunhan quickly took out a small black jade box from his inner pocket.
A rose woven with gold wire is tightly wrapped around the outside of the box, tightly covering the opening of the box. Its branches and leaves are stretched out, and it is in full bloom.
Gu Fenglin's slender white fingers flew nimbly, and with a soft "click" sound, the rose retracted its branches and leaves, and the box opened in half.
There are two silver pills the size of pine nuts in the box.
Taking one pill of this kind can shut down the perception and make you behave like an ordinary person. Taking another pill can restore the perception. This is the only way out for the children of the Gu family.
There was only one last pill left, and Mu Yunhan treasured it as if it were his life, preparing to give it to Gu Fenglin to save his life when one day he couldn't hold on any longer.
Later, when the two got married, Gu Yilan gave him one as a congratulatory gift, which was like giving Gu Fenglin another precious and rare opportunity.
Mu Yunhan looked at Gu Fenglin expectantly: "The journey is long and the pills are limited. How about you take one pill first and walk to Xiangshan safely?"
Gu Fenglin took the box away: "Okay, I will take it when I can't hold on any longer."
Mu Yunhan became more and more at ease and couldn't help but smile: "I'm really looking forward to this trip."
"Me too." Gu Fenglin lowered his head and blew out the lamp.
The two of them cuddled up against each other in the darkness, the atmosphere was calm, peaceful, warm and inviting.
Early the next morning, before dawn, everyone was already ready to go.
Mu Yunhan gave the order, and the convoy quietly left the city and headed into the distance under the dim morning light.
