Chapter 201: Half a Month
Qiao Xiya only felt that the fog in front of her was getting bigger and bigger, and she was about to lose sight of Qiu Yueling's figure, she couldn't help but shout, "Will we meet again?"
"Yes." Qiu Yueling's voice disappeared into the thick fog along with her figure.
Seeing that the fog was getting heavier and heavier, even the carriage that was obviously beside him just now couldn't see if it was still there at this time. Qiao Xiya couldn't help but feel a little flustered, and couldn't help shouting, "Third Master Qiao! Chunling! Xia He! Where are you?" But no matter how she called, no one answered her.
"Lord! Hatsuyun!" Qiao Xiya plucked up the courage to shout again, "Can you hear me?"
"Lord! Hatsukumo?" shouted twice, but still no one responded.
Qiao Xiya was a little panicked, she trembled and relied on her memory to touch the carriage beside her.
Suddenly, a pair of hands grabbed Qiao Xiya's wrists.
"Ahh Qiao Xiya couldn't help but scream.
"Shia?" It was Mo Haoning's voice that came to his ears.
"Lord Wang!" Qiao Xiya looked up, Mo Haoning's familiar face came into view, and Qiao Xiya's tears welled up at once.
"Don't cry, don't cry, I'm here, I'm here." Mo Haoning hurriedly took Qiao Xiya in his arms and comforted her.
As Mo Haoning's words landed, the surrounding fog also dissipated a lot, and if you looked closely, there was nothing around, and there were withered yellow weeds under your feet.
Mo Haoning looked up at the sky, trying to use the sun to discern the direction, but the sky was blocked by clouds, and there was no trace of the sun at all.
"Who!" Just when the two of them were stunned, a loud cry sounded behind them, and a cold knife instantly put on Mo Haoning's neck.
"Mo Haoning, the seventh son of Emperor Daning!" Mo Haoning took Qiao Xiya in his arms and said in a deep voice.
"Lord Wang!" The knife around his neck was removed and sheathed, "Lord forgive your sins."
The two turned around and saw a soldier-like figure standing behind them with his fists folded.
"Where is this?" Mo Haoning frowned and asked.
"It's a forbidden place." The soldier bowed.
"Forbidden land?"
"Our general said that there are countless imitators here who will threaten the safety of the army, so it has been set up as a forbidden place and we are not allowed to set foot in it." The soldier replied respectfully.
"Then why are you here?" A strange feeling crossed Qiao Xiya's heart.
"The general said there was a Taoist master who could get rid of the imitators, so we're here."
"Your Highness has sent us back." Qiao Xiya was stunned.
"Where is your general now?" Mo Haoning hurriedly asked.
The soldier was slightly stunned, and said in the distance, "Lord Wang, please come with me."
Mo Haoning led Qiao Xiya to follow behind the soldiers and walked into the distance.
After walking for about a cup of tea, Mo Haoning saw the familiar figure.
"Second brother!"
Mo Changhong was obviously stunned, looked up and saw Mo Haoning, and greeted him: "I thought something happened to you!" Mo Changhong's eyes are red.
"How could something happen? We've only been away for half a day." Mo Haoning said with a smile.
"Seventh, are you okay?" Mo Changhong stretched out his hand and shook it in front of Mo Haoning's eyes, "You've all been gone for half a month."
"Half a month?" Mo Haoning looked at the white bones that were about to pile up into a hill around him, and then glanced at the big pit in front of him, "You have been digging for half a month?"
"Yes......" Mo Changhong let out a long sigh, "The situation of devouring souls has been broken, and the Taoist chief said that all the unjust souls who died in vain have been resolved, I think that these people were all killed by Lin Shichong's brute, and they may still be thinking about their relatives at home before they died, so let the soldiers dig them all out, put them in the jar, transport them back to Jin'an, and bury them outside Jin'an City."
"Where's the Dao Chief?" Qiao Xiya asked.
"Cloud Dao Chang is resting in the tent, and his apprentice Yin Banxian is over there." Mo Changhong pointed to the edge of the pit.
"Second brother, have we really been away for half a month?" Mo Haoning pulled Mo Changhong and asked again.
"I still can
Can't you lie?" Mo Changhong looked Mo Haoning up and down like a monster.
"Lord Wang, don't ask," Qiao Xiya pulled Mo Haoning's sleeve and said softly, "This is a method of insect suppression."
"What are they doing?" Mo Haoning was a little angry, "We are here to help them fill in the sacrificial pit, not to harm them!"
"They have been in hiding from the world for thousands of years, and now they have suffered such a devastating blow, and if they do not return a tooth for a tooth, the blood debt and blood payment are already considered merciful. After all, it's our fault in the first place." Qiao Xiya paused and continued, "What's more, His Royal Highness didn't send us back safely, right? Maybe they just don't want us to leave a trace of the insects."
"Kindness is like a donkey's liver and lungs." Mo Haoning muttered with a little dissatisfaction.
"Let's go, it's been delayed for half a month, and Your Majesty is still waiting for us to go back and deliver the decree." Qiao Xiya said, and walked in the direction of the tent.
"Girl?" Xia He, who had just walked out of the tent, saw Qiao Xiya at a glance, "Hurry up, come out, the girl is back!" She rubbed her eyes to make sure she was right, and hurried into the tent shouting.
"Girl!" Chunling ran out crying and hugged Qiao Xiya, "Girl, are you okay?" But it frightened the slave and maid, and the slave and maid thought that they would never see the girl again......
"Oh, my newly made clothes...... Qiao Xiya pretended to be annoyed and pushed Chunling away, "Look, these tears and snot are wiped everywhere!" Okay, okay, didn't I come back well, don't cry~ It's hard to get swollen in your eyes, and you've been swollen for two days."
"It's windy outside, so let's go into the tent." Qiao San wiped the corners of his eyes and lifted the tent.
"When did you come back?" Qiao Xiya walked into the tent, took a sip of the hot tea handed by Chunling, and asked.
"I heard from the Great General that we came back on the fifth day of our departure." Xia He took the teacup, handed a hand stove to Qiao Xiya's hand and said softly.
"Didn't hurt, did you?" The warmth from the palm of her hand calmed down Qiao Xiya's whole person.
"No, it's all fine, it's just a little strange to come back." Chunling shook his head and said.
"It's good that it's not hurt." Qiao Xiya saw that everyone was not injured, and she relaxed slightly.
How she stepped into the Insect Killing Realm, and how she left the Insect Killing Realm, she didn't want to mention it too much, since they were all sent back safely, it was already Qiu Yueling's greatest kindness.
"Xia He, you go and pack your luggage, and we'll leave for Jin'an tomorrow." Qiao Xiya felt that it was better to leave as soon as possible, "Chunling, you go and invite the Cloud Dao Chief."
"Yes." The two of them were blessed together and left separately.
"Miss Joe." In less than a cup of tea, Yun Zhishui came to Qiao Xiya's tent.
"Dao Chief." Qiao Xiya hurriedly got up and greeted her.
"I heard that you will leave for Jin'an tomorrow?"
