I made the villain right.

Chapter 309: Taking the Fairy Fruit

At the same time, in the General's Mansion.

"Take down the white banners and lanterns above." Zhilu instructed the servant.

In the mourning hall, Luo Yi heard some noise at the door and turned around quickly.

I saw the servant climbing up the ladder and taking down the white banners and lanterns on the door one by one, with a frown on his face.

It has only been two days since Shi Sheng passed away, and the decorations in the mourning hall have been removed. This is really disrespectful to the deceased.

She hurried forward and asked: "Why were these things removed?"

Zhilu walked to Luo Yi and explained softly: "The general has woken up, but has lost some of his memory. The poison in his body has no cure, and he doesn't have much time left. The princess doesn't want him to see this and feel sad and painful, so she asked us to withdraw."

Upon hearing that Shi Wei didn't have much time left, Luo Yi's expression froze, and a complex and thoughtful look flashed across his eyes.

After a moment, Luo Yi raised his eyes and looked at Zhilu. There was no more hesitation in his eyes, only determination.

"Zhilu, where is Jin'er now? I have something important to tell her."

In the room, Shi Jin was feeding porridge to Shi Wei.

A spoonful of warm porridge was brought to Shi Wei's mouth. He opened his mouth slightly and drank it, but his eyes were a little dazed.

"Kill them all, until they die!"

"Kill her for me! Kill her!"

Shi Wei suddenly felt a sharp pain in his head, and a voice lingered in his mind.

He covered his head in pain.

Seeing this, Shi Jin quickly put down the porridge in his hand and asked with concern: "Dad, what's wrong with you? Do you have a headache?"

Shi Wei's eyes dimmed and became empty in an instant, and he grabbed Shi Jin's neck with his hands.

Shi Jin was terrified. He tried to pry Shi Wei's hands apart with both hands, but he had no strength to break free.

"Dad, it's me, Jin'er!" Shi Jin squeezed out a few words with difficulty, tears welling up in his eyes.

Just when Shi Jin felt that breathing was becoming more and more difficult and his consciousness was gradually becoming blurred.

Shi Xiaomian, Zhilu and Luo Yi hurried into the house.

When Zhilu saw this scene, he was horrified and immediately rushed over, trying to pull Shi Wei away.

"General, please wake up, this is the Crown Prince's Consort!"

Zhilu shouted and tried to pry Shi Wei's arm apart, but Shi Wei was very strong and showed no sign of letting go.

He pushed Zhilu away, and Zhilu couldn't dodge in time and fell heavily to the ground, with his palm bleeding from the friction.

Shi Xiaomian and Luo Yi seemed to know what was going on and rushed forward to help. The two worked together to subdue Shi Wei.

Shi Wei removed his hand from Shi Jin's neck, and Shi Jin collapsed to the ground, coughing violently and gasping for breath.

At this moment, Shi Wei seemed to have recovered from his loss of control just now. He looked at the weak Shi Jin on the ground with a look of confusion and guilt.

"Jin'er, I...what's wrong with me?" Shi Wei's voice trembled. He wanted to reach out to help Shi Jin, but shrank back in fear.

Shi Xiaomian squatted down and gently patted Shi Jin's back to comfort her.

Luo Yi couldn't bear to watch it anymore. She looked at Shi Wei and said seriously, "General, you have planted a soul-stealing plant..."

"Yiyi!" Shi Jin immediately spoke out to stop her.

Shi Jin got up from the ground, forced a smile, and comforted Shi Wei, "Dad, I'm fine, don't worry, I still have something important to tell them, you rest here first, don't think too much."

After saying that, Shi Jin took Luo Yi out, and Shi Xiaomian and Zhilu followed them out.

Although Shi Jin tried to conceal it, Shi Wei noticed something was wrong with him.

He sat on the edge of the bed, his brows furrowed, an indescribable uneasiness spreading in his heart.

He held his head in pain, trying hard to recall something.

There was always a voice in his head telling him to kill people and giving her orders, which gave him a splitting headache and he couldn't control himself at all.

Thinking about it, he became more and more certain that Shi Jin was hiding something from him.

Thinking back to what Luo Yi was about to say...

Soul-stealing...

"Soul-stealing technique!" Shi Wei suddenly opened his eyes.

As soon as he finished speaking, a sharp pain came over him, as if someone was stirring a sharp knife in his head, and his skull seemed to be shattered.

A sharp and piercing buzzing sound filled his entire brain, almost bringing him to the point of collapse.

Immediately afterwards, countless fragments of memories flooded into my mind.

He saw that he had gone to Jinzhou City and discovered that his mother-in-law had been captured by Xu Wuchen and threatened to surrender.

In order to protect him from being bullied, his mother-in-law committed suicide out of despair. The tragic scene broke his heart.

Before he could recover from his grief, the scene changed.

He was seen holding a sharp knife, and when Shi Sheng was not paying attention, he cut his throat.

The fear and disbelief in Shi Sheng's eyes pierced his heart like a sharp knife.

He did not stop his actions and stabbed the blade into his son's chest again.

Then he was seen fighting with Shi Jin, and the sharp blade scratched her arm.

These images made his heart feel as if it was being crushed, suffocated, and in excruciating pain.

"No!" Shi Wei howled in despair, his heart filled with pain and self-blame, making him fall into an endless abyss.

He could no longer bear the overwhelming pain. His chest churned and with a "puff" sound, a large amount of blood spurted out of his mouth, splashing onto the ground, and he instantly fainted.

On the other side, Shi Jin frowned slightly and said earnestly: "Yiyi, I hope you don't tell my father about this."

"Your father may still have a chance of survival. In the beast forest behind Fengyun Pavilion, there grows a fairy fruit. It is said that this fairy fruit can cure all diseases."

Shi Jin's eyes lit up instantly, and he said excitedly: "That's great, I'll go to the Beast Forest to get it now!"

"Don't be impatient, just listen to what I have to say."

The other party waved his hand, his expression solemn, "The fairy fruit is guarded by a black dragon. It is as difficult as ascending to heaven to get close to and pick the fruit."

Shi Jin gritted his teeth, his eyes determined: "We must give it a try no matter what. It's better to have hope than no hope."

Shi Xiaomian, who had been listening quietly, asked, "Can you tell me the exact location of the fairy fruit?"

Luo Yi recalled: "I don't know the exact location. I just remember that after passing through a forest filled with clouds and mist, I saw a pool of water. The black dragon was hiding in the pool, and the fairy fruit grew in the hole of an ancient tree next to it."

Shi Jin nodded slightly: "Okay."

Then, she turned to look at Zhilu and earnestly said, "Zhilu, please take good care of my father."

Thinking of Shi Wei's out-of-control emotions just now, Shi Jin was still a little worried, and said, "Yiyi, you should stay at home too. Xiaomian and I will go."

Shi Jin planned to visit Shi Wei before leaving.

But as soon as I walked into the room, I saw Shi Wei fainted on the ground.

She was stunned for a moment, her eyes full of fear: "Zhilu, go and call Gu'er over!"

"Okay!" Zhilu didn't dare to delay and ran out quickly.

Not long after, Zhilu and Xu Ruogu came hurriedly.

Xu Ruogu hurried forward, and after a careful inspection, he said solemnly: "The general is angry."

"Gu'er, if we get the fairy fruit, can father be saved?" Shi Jin asked anxiously.

"The Immortal Fruit is a rare elixir that only appears once in a century. If we can find it, it will naturally cure the poison in the general's body."

Upon hearing this, Shi Jin immediately said, "Okay, I'll go get it now."

Then he looked at Xu Ruogu and Yiyi and said, "I'll leave my father in your care."

After saying that, Shi Jin and Shi Xiaomian went back to the house to pack their things.

On the way, Shi Jin looked worried, looked at Shi Xiaomian and asked, "There are only two days left. If we rush non-stop, will we make it in time?"

Shi Xiaomian's eyes flashed with confidence, and she said, "Yes, have you forgotten that I have a golden finger?"

After saying that, Shi Xiaomian quickly grabbed Shi Jin's hand and walked into the house.

The moment the door closed, their figures disappeared instantly.

While Shi Jin was still in a daze, he found himself in the beast forest.

There was a flash of amazement in his eyes: "Wow, you can teleport."

Shi Xiaomian's lips curled slightly, "I only know the basics."

Shi Jin quickly got back on track: "Let's go, let's go pick the fairy fruit now."

Sometimes with Xiaomian's magic blessing, Shi Jin felt that he had a better chance of getting the fairy fruit.

The two walked deep into the forest for a long time, but they still couldn't see the foggy forest that Luo Yi had mentioned, so they wasted a lot of time.

Shi Jin suddenly stopped to rest, frowning and said, "Maybe Yiyi remembered it wrongly and didn't see the place she mentioned."

"Let's look somewhere else." After Shi Xiaomian said that, she walked in another direction, and Shi Jin followed behind.

Not long after walking, a low tiger roar was heard from not far away.

The two men's eyes were full of vigilance. They looked at each other, then slowly approached the source of the sound to check.

Pushing aside the dense bushes, they gasped at the sight before them.

A group of tigers gathered together and were tearing their prey apart. The smell of blood filled the air.

The leading tiger was huge, with muscles bulging under its fur. Its sharp claws held down its prey and it let out intimidating roars.

Shi Jinxin's heart was in her throat. She subconsciously clenched her fists and unconsciously took a half step back. She lowered her voice and said, "What should we do? With so many tigers, I'm afraid it will be difficult for us to get through, and we may even lose our lives."

Shi Xiaomian looked solemn and quickly thought of a countermeasure in his mind.

"I have an idea." Then she came out from her hiding place.

The tigers noticed something was wrong and turned to give her fierce looks.

Then he felt that the prey in his mouth was no longer delicious, and walked towards her with a deep and murderous look in his eyes.

Shi Xiaomian acted decisively. She quickly formed seals with her hands, and a faint blue light appeared in her hands. She then pushed the blue light towards the tiger group.

The blue light quickly formed a barrier, directly trapping the tigers.

The tigers' eyes were fierce and sharp as they charged around in the barrier, trying to break free and enjoy the prey in front of them.

Shi Xiaomian looked serious, with worry in her eyes.

After all, she became a nun late in life, so she is not proficient in using magic and cannot use it for a long time.

"Let's run quickly." After saying that, she ran away.

Shi Jin's eyes widened when he saw that all his capable generals had run away.

Dead leg run!

She also ran quickly and said anxiously, "Wait for me."

I was afraid that the tiger would break through the barrier and run away in the next second.

The two of them ran desperately and ran a long distance in one breath.

The two men stopped only when they could no longer hear the tiger's roar. They then sat on the ground and gasped for breath.

I had no idea that I had entered a forest filled with fog.

"It was so dangerous. I almost died there." Shi Jin said with lingering fear.

Shi Xiaomian wiped the sweat from her forehead and said with a wry smile: "Although this is a magic trick, it can only be used a limited number of times. I hope I won't encounter such a dangerous situation again in the future."

After Shi Jin looked around, she suddenly realized something. A hint of joy suddenly appeared on her face, and she shouted excitedly: "This is the cloud forest!"

Ahead, there was a thick white fog, and the road could not be seen clearly. It was completely different from the surrounding environment. It was exactly the place that Luo Yi described.

The two of them quickly stood up and walked into the depths of the misty forest with great anticipation.

A humid fog was blowing in our faces, and visibility was extremely low.

They groped their way forward. The road under their feet was bumpy and they were tripped by tree roots from time to time.

I don’t know how long I walked, but the view in front of me suddenly opened up and a clear, green pond appeared before my eyes.

Shi Jin's eyes quickly swept to the ancient tree beside the pond. In a hidden tree hole, she saw the tempting red fairy fruit.

"That's it, the fairy fruit!" Shi Jin said excitedly in a low voice.

However, before the two could get close, huge ripples suddenly appeared on the surface of the water in the pool, and the black dragon guarding the fairy fruit immediately appeared.
