101 The Journey to Miaojiang
101 Twisted Miaojiang Tour (1)
In a teahouse in Yuanling Town, Mu Ziling was sitting on the second floor and by the window, looking at the streets where people were coming and going outside the window, Xiu brows frowned, and the pot of Longjing in front of him was still moving.
This is the place where I agreed to meet with Liu Wuqing. Mu Ziling has arrived for two days. If I follow the normal itinerary, Liu Wuqing and Atuan should have arrived today. After all, it may be slower to take a detour on the waterway. I hope there will be no surprises.
When he first arrived in Yuanling Town, a beggar-like man bumped into him and hurriedly left. Then he found a piece of paper being thrown down. When he opened it, he actually said, "Would you let you die in the hands of your son, or you should die in the hands of your woman?", and the signature below was Mu Zijing.
Mu Ziling just smiled coldly. Is this a counterattack? It’s just that he won’t die so easily.
Just as he was thinking about being out of sight, A Tuan's voice suddenly came from behind, "Dad!"
Mu Ziling was happy when she heard the sound and turned around and saw that Liu Wuqing and A Tuan had arrived. She smiled and said, "A Tuan is here, Dad misses you so much."
A Tuan ran over and threw herself into his arms, "A Tuan misses his father very much." Then he raised his head and said, "Dad, where is my mother? A Tuan misses his mother too."
Mu Ziling's expression calmed down when she heard this, and she looked up at Liu Wuqing.
Seeing this, Liu Wuqing felt nervous and asked anxiously: "Where is Xier? What's wrong with her?"
"Sorry, I'm incompetent." Mu Ziling said, and then he told the whole story.
Liu Wuqing's face gradually became darker, "What did you say? Xi'er was also poisoned by the poison? She is still connected to Xiao Qiu?"
Mu Ziling nodded, his eyes darkened again, "I'm really sorry..." He paused and said, "Did Mr. Liu know that Xiao Qiulian is the man who practices Gu for a long time?"
"No," Liu Wuqing shook his head and said, "When he was in Pujiang, he received a letter from the Feige of the Sect Yuan, saying that Xiao Qiulian's mother was from Miaojiang, so Xiao Qiulian knew about the way to Miaojiang, so he might be able to help and chase us. At that time, I thought that he might be the one who practices Gu, but it was really." After a pause, he asked again: "Did the Seventh Prince make enemies with the Xiao family? Why did he come to kill you?"
"I'm afraid it's not the Xiao family, it's just him. The conflicts in big families like the Xiao family must be very complicated. He is the youngest son, so it's easy to make a deal with others."
Liu Wuqing hesitated for a while and said, "Don't blame the Seventh Prince for being powerless. Some things are still to say. The Seventh Prince is in a complicated situation in the court. The closer you are to Xi'er, the more dangerous Xi'er is. Xi'er is a man from the martial arts world. There is no reason to be persecuted by the people in the court because of you."
Mu Ziling frowned slightly when she heard this, "What does Mr. Liu mean?" Her voice was already chilling.
"The Seventh Prince is a smart person, I want to hear it clearly." Liu Wuqing looked at him and said coldly.
Mu Ziling said: "If you want me to leave Xi'er, then I can tell you clearly that it is impossible. But I can guarantee that she will not receive such harm again in the future."
"You hurt Xi'er once five years ago," Liu Wuqing said coldly, "You naturally didn't see her pain back then, but I can see clearly that you are not suitable for her. Even if you are sincere to her, you have too many plans in your mind, and what Xi'er wants is a single-minded person."
"As for these, I think she will choose it yourself." Mu Ziling curled her lips slightly, said, then looked down at A Tuan, rubbed his head, and said in a warm voice: "A Tuan, do you want to go to Kyoto with your father? Your home is there. When the poison of you and your mother is eliminated, we will go back to the royal palace, okay?"
A Tuan was happy when he heard this. He had never been to Kyoto before. He was about to agree, but suddenly his face turned narrow and said, "A Tuan listens to my mother."
Mu Ziling smiled softly, "Your mother has agreed."
Liu Wuqing's expression suddenly froze when she heard this, and her body stiffened, "You said... she agreed?"
"Yes, she agreed." Mu Ziling looked at him with a smile, and the smile was like the proud smile of the winner.
He still agreed. Sure enough, even though he was injured like this back then, even if it had been five years, she still had him in her heart.
Seeing that Liu Wuqing stopped talking, Mu Ziling said again: "Young Master Liu, should we go to Miaojiang? It is important to remove A Tuan's poison first."
"Where is Xi'er? Wouldn't you stop Xiao Qiulian from saving Xi'er here?"
"I haven't found a way to detoxify, even if I stop them, you and I can't do anything. I think Xiao Qiu will take Xi'er to Miaojiang. After all, his purpose is me. As long as I go, he will definitely return."
Liu Wuqing thought about it and felt that this was the only way, so he nodded and agreed.
In the afternoon of that day, they went into the mountains to Miaojiang.
The roads in the mountains are difficult to walk, and they are all winding paths. No wonder Miaojiang rarely interacts with the outside world and is almost isolated from the world. It is difficult to even enter such a road.
Mu Ziling asked Liu Wuqing with A Tuan on his back: "How did Mr. Liu know about this road to the mountain?"
Liu Wuqing said: "When I was young, I traveled everywhere and met the Miaojiang people who thought they had come out of the mountain. When I heard that Miaojiang had advanced witchcraft, I became interested in it and asked that friend to bring me in."
"That is, we don't have to worry that they will not heal after we enter the mountain?"
"If there is no surprise, it should be no problem. Although the people of Miaojiang do not like to deal with the outside world, I went to the mountains once a few years ago and were familiar with those elders."
“So very good.”
At this moment, a white blade flashed in front of his eyes, Mu Ziling sideways and avoided him, his eyes suddenly turned cold, and he shouted coldly: "Who is it!"
There was no one around, and Liu Wuqing said, "Stop it, we are here to seek medical treatment. Someone was poisoned by Miaojiang. I hope to let us in."
Then a voice remembered that it came from the bushes, "The people of Miaojiang never interacted with you Tianqi people, so how could they be poisoned by the poison? Leave quickly!"
Liu Wuqing said again: "I am Ukal's friend. Can you please put aside and notify him? Then he said that Liu Wuqing is here to find him."
The people in the bushes were silent for a moment, and said, "Okay, you wait."
Liu Wuqing and Mu Ziling looked at each other and stood there and stopped moving forward.
However, after a while, there was a rustling sound around. The two of them immediately became alert and scanned the surroundings, but nothing was wrong.
A moment later, countless black insects rushed from the forest, which was the kind that Xiao Qiu suddenly released at that time!
"Oh no! It's a Gu insect!" Liu Wuqing said anxiously.
"What's going on?" Mu Ziling immediately hugged A Tuan on his back to his chest and protected him firmly.
