Chapter 119: The Wolf Is Coming
Su Ruoxi and Mu Zihan walked all the way down the river, and soon found their way out of the valley.
Along the way, Mu Zihan didn't speak much, and Su Ruoxi was also thinking about some questions.
Suddenly, she thought of something, looked at Mu Zihan beside her and asked, "Since you know my true identity, do you know what happened to the Yin and Yang family back then?" ”
Mu Zihan looked at Su Ruoxi intently, and after thinking for a moment, he said, "You really want to know?" ”
Su Ruoxi nodded seriously, seeing that Mu Zihan seemed to know something, her mood suddenly became excited again.
"I hope you can tell me everything you know!"
"Your mother is the heir of the Yin and Yang family, and later became the high priest of the Cangyue Kingdom, praying for the safety of the entire Cangyue Kingdom."
"But later, the old emperor of Cangyue Kingdom wanted to canonize your mother as his concubine. It's just that at that time, your mother fell in love with a general of Cangyue Kingdom, and eloped with that general and fled. ”
"The emperor was furious and sent troops to copy the entire Yin and Yang family. Later, your mother and the general were missing after falling off the cliff, and almost everyone who knew about it thought that your mother was dead. She just lost her memory, was rescued by the Mu family, and later married Su Yao. ”
The information Mu Zihan said made Su Ruoxi immediately know the cause and effect.
"How do you know so well?"
Su Ruoxi asked curiously, Mu Zihan's age was not much older than her.
Even if he knew about these old things, he should have just listened to people.
But looking at the tone of Mu Zihan's speech, it was as if these things were what he had seen with his own eyes.
"Have you forgotten that your father-in-law has a huge intelligence base station. As long as you want to know, there's nothing I can't look up. ”
Mu Zihan pinched Su Ruoxi's nose dotingly, and Su Ruoxi reacted at this time.
She almost forgot about such an important matter, the Flower Valley of the Flower Demon in Moon City, but Mu Zihan's biggest intelligence base.
Thinking of the flower-skinned demon, Su Ruoxi felt a touch of worry in her heart.
"Because of me before, it was very unpleasant between you and the fair-skinned demon, should he ......?"
Although she believed that the flower demon was not the kind of despicable villain, sometimes, people change quickly.
She didn't want to let the cooperation between Mu Zihan and the Flower Demon be affected because of her.
Mu Zihan naturally knew what Su Ruoxi was worried about, so he comforted: "Don't worry, he is that virtuous!" ”
A simple sentence reveals the extraordinary relationship between the two.
Su Ruoxi didn't think much about it anymore and continued to hurry.
When it was almost dark, the two found a small village to rest.
Su Ruoxi inquired about it, and it would take at least a day to rush back to the imperial city from the small mountain villa where they were temporarily staying.
So, they had to stay in the village for one night and wait until dawn tomorrow before continuing their journey.
They temporarily lived in the house of a kind middle-aged couple, and Su Ruoxi learned from the mouth of the couple that the people in their village all made a living from farming, and the land was fertile, and it should have been a rich village.
But the taxes were too heavy, and ninety percent of their annual harvest was collected. Not only that, but this is also the case in some nearby villages.
Although these villages are all outside the imperial city, they are all small remote places surrounded by mountains, and no one cares about the suffering of the people here.
At night, Su Ruoxi sat in the courtyard to enjoy the coolness, she and Mu Zihan had been missing for a whole day. She thought that Ling Feng and Xiangxiang should have been sending someone to find their whereabouts at this time.
As long as you go to the official road tomorrow, you will soon be able to find their people.
Su Ruoxi was thinking about it, and Aunt Li, who lived in the house, suddenly ran out of the house in a panic and shouted: "Miss Su, go and take a look, your father-in-law seems to be getting worse." ”
Hearing Aunt Li's shout, Su Ruoxi immediately ran back to the house to check the situation.
She was tired all day during the day, so she asked Mu Zihan to rest early.
Unexpectedly, less than half an hour after she turned around and left, Mu Zihan's condition began to recur.
Su Ruoxi walked to the side of the bed to check on Mu Zihan's condition, only to see Mu Zihan's forehead sweating continuously, his complexion looked very bad, and his body was still twitching.
"Miss Su, we don't have a good doctor in the village, your father-in-law is so badly injured, you have to be sent to the city for treatment as soon as possible!"
Aunt Li stood beside Su Ruoxi and said with concern.
Su Ruoxi checked Mu Zihan's situation, it was a stroke and cold after the injury, and it is estimated that Mu Zihan will not wake up in a day.
This means that they will not be able to continue their journey tomorrow.
Su Ruoxi thought about it, borrowed paper and pen from Aunt Li, and wrote a prescription and a letter respectively.
"Aunt Li, please give this to Uncle Li, and please let him go into the city tomorrow. Follow this prescription to the pharmacy to buy some medicine and send the letter to a place called 'Mo Yaxuan'. ”
"When Uncle Li comes back, bring the guards of 'Mo Yaxuan' back with him."
Mu Zihan's condition was so severe, she couldn't leave him and go into the city by herself.
As long as Uncle Li can bring her letter to the people of 'Mo Yaxuan', the guards of the palace will be able to find them. As long as there is a carriage, even if Mu Zihan is unconscious, it will not be a problem to hurry.
Aunt Li is illiterate, and she doesn't know the identities of Su Ruoxi and Mu Zihan, but when she sees Su Ruoxi's dress and dress, she knows that they are rich and noble.
"Miss Su, don't worry, although my wife and I are both rough people, we are absolutely careful in our work. Tomorrow morning, I'll let him go into town!" ”
After Aunt Li finished speaking, she went to Uncle Li to discuss things.
Su Ruoxi wiped Mu Zihan's sweat with a wet towel, the medicine she was carrying was washed away when she was in the river, and the only remaining one was also eaten by Mu Zihan.
In desperation, she had no choice but to use the silver needles that had been roasted in the fire to prick the needles for Mu Zihan to help him alleviate some of the pain.
This night, Su Ruoxi didn't sleep all night, and stayed by Mu Zihan's side to take care of him.
If it weren't for saving her, Mu Zihan wouldn't have been hurt so badly.
She felt that she was a scourge sometimes, always making the people around her hurt her.
She is now burdened with the identity of the heir of the Yin and Yang family, and has the ability to crack the Fortune Pushing Diagram. If this news comes out, I don't know how much trouble it will have.
On the second day, Mu Zihan was still unconscious, and it wasn't until it was almost dark in the evening that Uncle Li hurried back.
Hearing Aunt Li shouting that Uncle Li was back, Su Ruoxi happily ran out of the house to take a look.
I saw that Uncle Li was driven back on a horse.
There was a team of more than fifty guards behind him, Su Ruoxi took a closer look, it was not the guards of their palace at all!
"Oops! Something happened! ”
