With Xiong Kui's restraint, Yu Zhi's escape was very easy.
Xiong Kui, who is at the ninth level of the Open Monument, is the overlord on the battlefield, but no matter how powerful his blood-stained technique is, it has a time limit.
Xiong Kui must deal with these men in black robes within a limited time.
The surviving disciples in Baiyan Valley kept running towards the Cangshan disciples. This was obviously Zong Linyue's idea.
Yu Zhi turned around and looked at Xiong Kui again, then went into the forest.
Now we are almost back to Cangshan Mountain.
...
In Beiliang City, Yu Zhuyue's small courtyard is no longer as deserted as usual.
There was Yulan's noisy sound in the yard from morning to night.
Lao Huang was sitting on the threshold, watching the fight between Yu Lan and Ning Huan. Occasionally, he would think of that lively and cheerful girl, and then he would feel a little nostalgic.
Yu Zhuyue was cooking medicine in the house as usual, and would also look up at Yu Lan in the yard, with a hidden smile in her calm eyes.
As for Yu Lan...
After Ning Huan rescued Yu Lan, Yu Lan did not ignore Ning Huan as usual, but became more concerned about her.
She knew that without Ning Huan that night, Yu Lan would not be where she is now.
"Ning Huan, I'm warning you, my patience is limited." Yu Lan chased Ning Huan holding the medicine bowl.
That night, Ning Huan was seriously injured.
But thanks to Yu Zhuyue's wonderful rejuvenation, it only took a day or two for him to become lively again.
Ning Huan grimaced and said, "I'm fine and recovered, so I don't need to take any more medicine."
Yu Lan snorted coldly and said, "If you don't drink it, I will never leave you in this life."
This is Yu Lan's magic weapon.
These days, just this sentence works better than any panacea.
No matter how bitter the medicine was, Ning Huan frowned, pinched his nose and poured it into his mouth.
Ning Huan took the medicine bowl, looked at the dark medicinal soup, and finally gritted her teeth and stuffed it into her mouth.
Yu Lan smiled and patted Ning Huan on the shoulder, as if a good gentleman in a private school wanted to praise his students, "Not bad. He is a good boy."
Ning Huan grinned, not knowing whether to cry or laugh.
He knew that his blood was not in vain that night, and Yu Lan's attitude towards him changed. Even if he was hurt a hundred times, he was still willing.
After serving Ning Huan, Yu Lan took another bowl of medicinal soup and brought it into the room.
"This is yours." Yu Lan placed the medicinal soup beside the bed.
"Thank you, Miss Yu." Wan'er said softly. There was weakness in the soft voice.
That day, Xiao Jingyao sent people to Yu Zhuyue.
Fortunately, Yu Zhuyue was in a good mood that day. After learning that Xiao Jingyao had helped Yu Zhi, she asked Wan'er to stay.
It only took one day for Wan'er to wake up.
In Yu Zhuyue's mind, except for Yu Zhi's illness, everything else was just pediatrics.
Yu Lan was mostly curious about Wan'er, and after knowing the identities of Xiao Jingyao and Wan'er, she couldn't hide her curiosity.
"My mother-in-law said that you were poisoned by a poison called Hundred Days Drunk. Do you know who wants to harm you?"
Wan'er shook her head slightly. She was just a maid, so how could she know this.
Immediately, Yu Lan said: "It doesn't matter, that Xiao Jingyao will definitely find the murderer for you."
On that day, Yu Zhuyue told Xiao Jingyao about Wan'er's poisoning. Hundred-day drunkenness is a rare poison. The person who is poisoned will die within a hundred days if he becomes groggy. Moreover, the symptoms of poisoning are just like typhoid fever, and people will not think of poison at all.
After cleaning up Wan'er's medicine bowl, Yu Lan filled another medicine jar with medicine soup and sent it into another room.
There were three patients in one courtyard, but Yu Lan was very busy.
"Miss Li, it's time to drink medicine."
In the Meiyuan of Beiliang City, Xiao Jingyao looked at the reports accumulated in the past few days and rubbed his temples to relieve fatigue.
In the past, at this time, Wan'er would always bring him a cup of tea, then stand behind Jamel Xiao and massage him gently.
After a while, Xiao Jingyao said: "Zimu, is Wan'er feeling better?"
Yan Zimu reported back: "Today the guard replied that Miss Wan'er is fine, but her body still needs to be nursed back to health."
Xiao Jingyao nodded and said: "Send some snow lotus and Ganoderma lucidum to Wan'er. No, give them to Dr. Yu. Remember to prepare more."
Since Wan'er moved into the courtyard, there have been many guards in front of the courtyard, and various rare elixirs have been sent into the courtyard one after another.
After Yan Zimu left, Xiao Jingyao picked up a report, which stated all the information about the poisoner.
After learning that Wan'er had been poisoned, Xiao Jingyao screened everyone in the plum garden.
It is impossible for Night Ghost to poison, and there is no need to poison a little maid, so the person who poisoned her must be the people in the plum garden.
But when Xiao Jingyao set his sights on the target, the maid who delivered the medicine to Wan'er had already died in her room.
Xiao Jingyao put down the report. He could understand if he was killed. Whether it was Xiao Jingyu, King Xiang Ji of Chu, or that Xiang Jinghao, all of them had motives.
But why poison Wan'er?
Xiao Jingyao's eyes were cold, and these days were one of the few times in his life when he was filled with anger.
"Prime Minister Li, is that you?" Xiao Jingyao thought.
The murderer behind the scenes lost his clues with the death of the medicine maid.
Xiao Jingyao could only focus on Li Xiuyuan's head. What happened between him and Wan'er was not a secret. And Li Xiuyuan's sophistication is no secret.
If it was for Li Chuchen, Li Xiuyuan would definitely do this.
Xiao Jingyao had no evidence and could only give up everything.
But after this incident, Jamel Xiao also made up his mind. If there is not enough power in this world, even if you are willing to withdraw from the whirlpool of fighting, it will be difficult to end well.
The position of prince is coveted by countless people, but it is a tempting poisonous fruit.
Xiao Jingyao, who is in his position, understands that none of the deposed princes in the past dynasties has died a good death. Therefore, he cannot retreat, not only for himself, but also for Wan'er.
The matter of building a new racecourse is proceeding in an orderly manner, and so far Prairie Wolf Court is very satisfied.
Both sides are willing to see that the war in the north can be quelled.
Of course, the prerequisite for peace in the north is that the interests of both sides are satisfied.
After Xiao Jingyao was assassinated, Prairie Wolf Court also sent people to visit him. The person who came was really Princess Nuomin who had gone to Dachu Kyoto.
Xiao Jingyao knew that with this shrewd woman, the peace in the north was possible.
Although the Steppe Wolf Court no longer provokes war, another greater hidden danger is secretly threatening the entire world.
Night ghost...where do they come from?
...
By the time Yu Zhi changed his appearance and returned to the Cangshan team, the fighting had stopped.
Dozens of men in black robes retreated, leaving only the bodies of a few new disciples.
Compared to the tragedy in White Flame Valley, Cangshan's losses were nothing at all.
As soon as Yu Zhi showed his head, Cang Jin's voice came over.
"Li Zhi, are you okay? Where did you go just now?" Cang Jin asked worriedly.
When counting the personnel just now, Li Zhi was the only one missing. Jiang Yi was also worried. He knew that Yu Zhi was pretending to be dead, but he didn't dare to say anything.
Seeing that Yu Zhi's clothes were in tatters and there were many scars on his body, Cang Jin was afraid that Yu Zhi died somewhere.
A genius with eight ringing bells, there is only one like this in the whole sect competition, and it takes ten years for the Cangshan sect to see one. This one was recruited by myself, how can I not treasure it?
Yu Zhi was even a little moved. He had already thought of his words.
"The disciple was chased by a man in black robe just now, so he ran all the way into the mountains and forests, and was lucky enough to survive." Yu Zhi said in a panic, "Later, the man in black robe retreated for some reason, and then the disciple Dare to come back."
Cang Jin nodded, the stone in his heart finally falling.
"It's okay. Look, seven of the disciples who started with you have died. Be careful in the future. If you encounter danger, go to me or Wan Jun." Cang Jin didn't care about these new disciples.
Yu Zhi nodded and thanked: "Thank you, elder."
After Cang Jin left, Yu Zhi looked in the direction of the White Flame Valley disciples. Zong Linyue and others were all injured, and they were lucky to be alive.
Xiong Kui was also sitting on a stone, his breath slumped. The battle just now made his injuries more serious, and he also used the blood-burning technique, and now he can no longer raise any strength.
Jiang Yi approached Yu Zhi and asked quietly: "Junior brother Li, where were you just now?"
Yu Zhi's face was not red, and his heart was not beating. He replied: "Of course I will find a place to hide. My little strength is not enough to grind the teeth of the man in black robe."
"But this injury on your body..." Jiang Yi pointed at Yu Zhi and said doubtfully.
Yu Zhi was fine before he left. When I came back, it turned out like this.
Yu Zhi glanced at Jiang Yi and said speechlessly: "If you don't make yourself more embarrassed, will Elder Cangjin believe that you are being hunted? Besides, do you think that with my level of cultivation, in such a battle, I can't Is it okay to get hurt a little?”
Jiang Yi was stunned for a moment, then suddenly realized, and gave Yu Zhi a thumbs up. "He is still higher than junior brother."
Yu Zhi didn't expect Jiang Yi to be so attentive. He didn't want to get entangled with Jiang Yi, so he immediately changed the subject.
"By the way, has Elder Cang Jin figured out the origins of these black-robed men? Aren't they people from White Flame Valley? Were they also ambushed?"
Yu Zhi asked three questions in a row, and Jiang Yi didn't know how to answer them. He stroked his fingers and said: "White Flame Valley is even worse than us. Nearly half of the disciples are dead, and even the casual elders are dead. As for the origin of the man in black robe, the elders just couldn't tell anything. . I want to wait until I return to the sect before continuing the investigation."
Yu Zhi nodded, recalling the face hidden under the black robe.
That's not what a human should look like at all.
The face under the black robe had no facial features and was just pitch black. But at the moment when the black mist was exhaled, a vortex like a black hole opened on the face.
If he could only be called a human being, Yu Zhi might wonder if his appearance was normal.
Jiang Yi suddenly said again: "Junior brother Li, Elder Cangjin really treats you like his own grandson. He doesn't worry about anyone, he only cares about you. He also gave you the opportunity to Qing Yan to refine his body, tsk tsk tsk, this is what he would do if he were his own grandson." There are some benefits.”
Listening to Jiang Yi's envious tone, Yu Zhi felt that this was a bit strange.
"You are the real grandson."
