A female military doctor traveled through time and was forced to love by a cruel prince
Chapter 199 Follow Him
The mountain turned high and dark. The person in front of them was galloping, and the two of them were afraid of disturbing the person in front, so they could only fall far behind and follow with their horses' hooves in small steps.
Fortunately, after entering the mountain road, there is only a narrow path, so we won’t get lost.
The road twisted and turned, and the two continued to chase the people in front of them based on their feeling. It had been two hours, but the sound of horse hooves in front was still there, and there was no sign of slowing down.
Soon, the sound of horse hooves in front finally stopped.
The two men also dismounted and walked forward in small steps. As they walked, they saw a faint light coming from a cave in front of them. The person they were following had disappeared. Looking around, it seemed that this was the only place he should go.
So they quietly came to the entrance of the cave, but found that there were no guards.
I feel very strange. Should I enter this cave or not? There are no guards. If I go in, what if they catch me in a trap?
But if we don’t go in, how can we find out whether there is a powerful organization behind that person?
The two men discussed in a low voice at the door. After a while, Zhang Cheng slowly walked into the cave alone.
General Hu stayed outside the cave.
Zhang Cheng entered the cave and walked forward along the path in the cave. There were torches on the wall at intervals to light the way, which Zhang Cheng didn't like.
In such an environment, wouldn't he be attractive in black? It's bright and hard to hide.
Zhang Cheng muttered to himself, but he didn't dare to relax his eyes at all and stared straight ahead.
I’ve come quite a distance, why haven’t I seen anyone yet?
Zhang Chengdong looked around, then at the two walls of the cave, and felt that it was not easy to hide people there.
So he continued to move forward, sticking close to the left wall. After half an incense stick of time, he finally heard a sound.
Zhang Cheng quickly put the branches he had just cut outside the cave on his head to hide himself.
This was a good location, there was a concave space in the cave wall, so he embedded himself in it and added branches.
Nice effect.
The entrance of the cave is narrow and the belly is large. In the middle of the large and spacious cave, there is a large round stone seat protruding.
In the center, an old man with long white hair is sitting cross-legged. He is wearing a white robe, has fluttering beard, and has his hands clasped together.
A beam of light came through the cave and illuminated the old man.
Sitting outside the circular stone seat were six young men wearing white robes like him, and they also had long white hair. Zhang Cheng couldn't understand why they had white hair at such a young age.
Zhang Cheng opened his eyes wide and looked to see if there was anyone among the six people who gave the medicine, but there was none.
What's going on? That guy isn't from this group?
He thought about it and decided to stay for a while. If he couldn't see him again, he would have to go back, as that would mean he had lost him.
He blamed himself in his heart.
I turned my head to look at the cave entrance.
At this time, he heard a sound in the cave and looked closely. Yeah, isn't that the person he followed?
I saw that the man had changed into the same white robe as the others, and was now kneeling between the six people and the elder.
The elder narrowed his eyes with long white eyebrows and eyelashes.
The eye area was completely white.
His lips did not move, but a sound that shook the cave came out:
"Your mission has failed, and you don't even know it.
The failure of this mission made me ashamed to face the Emperor, Zi Sang Yan (Emperor of Southern Han).
This is a win-win situation, Zi Sangyan made Zi Sangyu's epidemic prevention fail.
I got the people who died from the plague and continued my alchemy.
But the person you found is unqualified. He is cowardly and ignorant.
If you fail to complete the task and find the raw materials for today's alchemy, then you will be the only one to take over."
He said this, ignoring the man's pleas.
The six men lifted the man up and walked towards another fork in the cave.
Zhang Cheng looked from afar and felt that there was a big belly there.
With a scream, the six men returned empty-handed.
As if nothing had happened, they continued to sit together, with their hands clasped together, muttering to themselves.
Zhang Cheng couldn't believe his ears.
No way, the purpose of the mission given to them by the emperor is to sabotage the prince's efforts to control the epidemic? How could this be?
After seeing and hearing what they said, he thought to himself, run quickly, or else they will use him as raw material, which will be very troublesome.
He came out of the cave and whispered to General Hu what he had seen, and then the two of them rode back to the camp at full speed.
When Xiao Yuehan heard Zhang Cheng say that it was the emperor who ordered this matter, she was a little confused.
She thought carefully, she had been in this capital for some time, and she had heard that there was an evil cult called the White Eyebrows Sect here. However, this sect was relatively peaceful and focused on doing its own thing, refining pills.
But I just heard today that they actually use dead bodies to make elixirs, and if they don't have the raw materials, they will use living people.
It seems that this religion should also be investigated. If it is true, it must be destroyed.
However, what Xiao Yuehan is thinking now is that the prince came here to fight the epidemic on the orders of the emperor, so why would the emperor go back on his word?
Could it be that Zi Sangyu's power is growing stronger, and the emperor wants to suppress the prince?
She called Zhang Cheng over to check again: "Are you sure you heard the old man's words clearly? I heard him mention Zi Sang Yan and Zi Sang Yu. It can't be wrong.
It's a win-win situation for both sides. He wants people, and the emperor wants the fight against the epidemic to fail."
There was no trace of emotion in Xiao Yuehan's beautiful eyes. She was thinking that if the emperor did this, it was for only one purpose.
That is to suppress Zi Sangyu. But this kind of court struggle disregards the lives of the people.
It should not be built on the lives of ordinary people.
But she has seen a lot of such things in modern TV dramas.
And now, such a thing is happening around me, how should I deal with it?
Zi Sangyu is not by her side, so she must weigh the pros and cons carefully, and of course she will not do as the emperor wishes.
The sky was getting light, and a new day was about to begin. Xiao Yuehan called Master Ning, General Hu and Zhang Cheng.
Her clear and lively eyes fell on several people.
"What do we do now?"
Master Ning frowned slightly and said, "We should still have our original intention, which is to control this plague.
We cannot let the people get hurt. If we don’t do that, then what are we doing here?”
Xiao Yuehan nodded and said, "Yes, we are not working for the emperor, we are doing all this according to our conscience.
Would they abandon this place just for someone's benefit? Think about it, before we came, people were dying here every day, but now as long as they take their medicine on time, there is no death.
In the future, we must strengthen patrols, strengthen precautions, and be wary of all strangers. Don't let any one go."
Then he said to General Hu, "How is the situation over there? Do you have enough manpower?"
General Hu nodded and replied, "Enough. Now that the number of serious cases has decreased, we have some free manpower that can be used to strengthen patrols."
"Okay." Xiao Yuehan nodded firmly.
