The baby-making system is unreliable
Chapter 29: The Prince in Southern Xinjiang vs. the Princess in Jiangnan (4)
The next day, in the early morning, the sky was just beginning to turn pale and the whole world was still immersed in silence. The air was filled with a fresh scent and the birds occasionally whispered.
Finally, she had to leave Suzhou City. No matter how reluctant Grandma Yang was, she knew that this day would come eventually.
"Child, take this sword with you on your journey. Grandma can no longer control you, so go ahead and beat up whoever you want!"
Granny Yang gave her the Qingyun Sword that her father had used, and also gave her a book that looked very strange and seemed like a sword manual.
"Mother-in-law, I will take good care of myself, and you should also take care of yourself. When I go out and make some money, I will definitely come back to see you!"
Yun Xirou took the Qingyun Sword and the strange book, tears welling up in her eyes. She hugged Granny Yang tightly, feeling her warmth.
It was the first time that the mother-in-law said such words. Yun Xirou laughed and cried at the same time.
"When you are out, don't put yourself in a difficult position. Don't worry about what others think. The right thing to do is to make yourself happy."
Granny Yang smiled and patted her on the back, saying that children will always leave their parents when they grow up.
Yun Xirou wiped her tears, turned around and started her journey. Granny Yang stood at the door with a kind smile on her face. She waved her hand gently, motioning them to leave.
No one had been seen in Wushijiang in the morning. I guess he had embarked on the journey to Cangyan City.
The scenery of Taihu Lake in Suzhou is beautiful, but... it's a pity that we said we would release lanterns together, so it seems we have to wait until next time.
"Brother Han, let's go." Yun Yi said softly, with a hint of firmness in her voice.
Han Xiuqi held the jade flute in his hand and followed her silently. The two walked side by side, their steps steady and firm. The sun shone on them, illuminating their figures.
They walked through the busy streets, where people were busy coming and going. The scenery of Suzhou City was beautiful, and it was really hard to leave when they left.
"Sister Airou, we will come back again, for sure!"
"Yeah." Yun Xirou nodded gently, with a determined light flashing in her eyes.
……
Three months later, they saw the area ruled by King Beiyou, and finally they saw what hell on earth was like!
In the city, the streets were crowded with pale, skinny and powerless refugees. They were dressed in tattered clothes and had empty eyes, as if they had lost hope in life.
Some people were walking forward with difficulty using crutches, while others were just lying on the ground, looking extremely haggard.
In despair, they also vaguely hope that someone can save them. Their eyes full of desire and expectation, through the endless darkness, seem to be silently praying that someone can save them from the dire straits.
This glimmer of expectation is like a candle in the wind, which may be blown out at any time, but it burns tenaciously.
"Who will save me?! Who will save me!?" They all seemed to be saying this, but they were powerless to do anything.
They also went to Beiyou Palace, but they were unable to enter. Not only was it heavily guarded, but Han Xiuqi also discovered that there were at least ten Gu Masters.
However, after Yun Xirou and her companions' secret investigation, they roughly figured out the location of King Beiyou's underground palace and decided to explore it at night.
The underground palace was built on Wuai Mountain, leaning against the mountain and located in a remote area.
Today is the day of worshipping the Gu God in Southern Xinjiang. The two kings’ attention is all on the worship, which is an opportunity for them.
At night, the moon was dark and the wind was strong. The air was filled with silence. Yun Xirou and Han Xiuqi quietly approached the entrance of the underground palace of King Beiyou.
The surroundings were silent, with only the rustling of the grass in the breeze. Yun Xirou nervously grasped her sword and looked around vigilantly.
The gate of the underground palace was tightly closed, revealing a mysterious atmosphere, and two rows of guards were guarding the underground palace.
Perhaps King Beiyou was too confident, or he was not afraid of anyone coming, so there were not many guards watching.
Han Xiuqi held the jade flute tightly, followed behind her and looked at the surrounding environment vigilantly, and said softly: "Sister Airou, be careful. We will use the hidden Gu to go in!"
He quietly planted a hidden poison in the two of them, and when the guards were changing shifts, they carefully opened the door and stepped into the underground palace.
Fortunately, he learned some witchcraft when he was wandering in southern Xinjiang. As for the person who taught him witchcraft... After a quick meeting, the thing he remembered most clearly was that she had a birthmark on her right cheek.
Although I didn’t learn much, it was enough.
There was an old atmosphere in the underground palace, and a faint light flickered on the stone walls.
Yun Xirou and Han Xiuqi walked forward cautiously, always paying attention to the movements around them.
Suddenly, a chilly wind blew, making people's hair stand on end. Yun Xirou tightly grasped the Qingyun Sword, while Han Xiuqi protected her.
What they saw when they entered made them instantly terrified. This place was more like a dungeon of torture than a treasure trove.
Or perhaps the dungeon was very large, with more than ten floors below, and iron chains locked up one Miao people after another, with hundreds of people suffering torture all day long.
Blood, poison and all kinds of strange smells mixed together, masks made from severed human skin were used as lanterns, and the remains of limbs and bodies were horrific to look at.
Yun Xirou was almost shocked by this appearance and couldn't open her eyes. Han Xiuqi gave her a pill, which could relieve the condition when put in her mouth.
In the middle of the bottom layer, there seems to be a huge poison-making room, with all kinds of strange snakes, ants, poisonous insects, weird symbols, etc.
The two looked at each other and thought that the solution to the poison might be at the bottom.
Han Xiuqi's face was heavy and his mind was in a mess. He suppressed the fear and anger in his heart and continued to go deeper into the underground palace.
Every step she took seemed like she was stepping on the edge of hell. Yun Xirou stared at everything in front of her with wide eyes. She couldn't imagine what kind of suffering these people had endured.
Bypassing the guards on each floor, they quietly reached the last floor.
Suddenly, a sharp cry was heard, and Yun Xirou and Han Xiuqi immediately became alert.
Unexpectedly, another girl suddenly appeared. She had a cold face, was dressed in white, and had a look of vicissitudes of life in her eyes.
Uh... He has a head full of white hair, but looks only about eleven or twelve years old. However, his temperament... is completely like that of a hidden master.
Why does this look so familiar!? If Wu Canjiang were here, he would definitely call her "auntie".
A ragged man rushed out from the corner of the cell, his eyes crazy and distorted as he stared at the white-haired woman.
"Who are you? Why are you here?" the man hissed.
The woman didn't even raise her eyes and said calmly, "If you want to live, shut up!"
"Are you here to rescue us!?"
After hearing this, the man suddenly laughed foolishly: "Rescue? It's too late! King Beiyou will not let us go..."
The laughter echoed in the underground palace, making people feel creepy.
"My dear Aunt Wu Shenhuan, if you keep talking I will pull out your tongue!!"
A flash of white light flashed in Wu Shenhuan's eyes. He flashed in front of it in a moment, knocked it unconscious and said, "Shut up, I've never seen anyone as stupid as you!!"
The number of prisoners decreases as you go down, and he is the only one on this floor. I thought he was smart, but I never expected him to be so stupid.
"..."
Then they saw Wu Shenhuan searching here and there. The two of them looked at each other and also started searching vigorously on this floor.
"Hey, hey, hey, two little mice, what are you looking for?!"
Wu Shenhuan crossed his arms and sneered, saying that it seemed that he had discovered them a long time ago.
"Senior, sorry to bother you. We are here to save people."
Han Xiuqi removed the hidden Gu and bowed respectfully. Since this man was able to find them, either his Gu technique was better than his, or his martial arts was better than theirs.
Neither the former nor the latter is something they can handle.
"Senior, I am here to save my father. I have no intention of disturbing you. I only want to know how to solve the problem of 'puppet'."
Yun Xirou did not offend and bowed respectfully.
Wu Shenhuan was shocked when he saw her appearance. He never thought that Xiao Shi's child had grown so big: "You? You are Xiao Shi's daughter, right?!"
"In that case, don't waste time, take this...that...and this box, and follow me!"
She just pointed at a bunch of things and told them to follow her without any hesitation?!
"There's no one else here, are you leaving or not?!"
After he finished speaking, Wu Shenhuan used his Qinggong skills and only a shadow remained in the void.
The two looked at each other and realized that they had indeed finished shopping and there was nothing else to see, so they had no choice but to follow her.
After all, with her martial arts skills, killing them wouldn't be so troublesome.
The two of them used their Qinggong skills to follow quietly, and within half an hour, they arrived at a forest.
"These two have pretty good Qinggong skills!"
Wu Shenhuan secretly exclaimed in his heart, and at the same time, he also developed a strong interest in them and a hint of temptation.
She just flashed and pounced towards the two figures as fast as a ghost. As she waved her hand, a powerful palm force surged out and attacked the two men with a fierce momentum.
The palm wind whizzed past, as if tearing the surrounding air apart, showing Wu Shenhuan's profound internal strength.
Faced with such a sudden attack, the two of them did not panic, but instead showed amazing reaction speed and agility.
They dodged Wu Shenhuan's palm strike by leaning sideways and retreated at an extremely fast speed, keeping a certain distance from Wu Shenhuan.
"Aunt Wu Shenhuan, even when your mother comes, she has to call me aunt. If you were Xiao Shi's daughter, you wouldn't be able to do this."
Wu Shenhuan flew to a certain tree, looked down at the two people who were chasing after her, and said to Han Xiuqi, "Don't get in the way, Han boy. I have a bad temper."
This is our business, no one else should interfere. We are going to test her martial arts.
Han Xiuqi: She has seen me?! Why don’t I remember?!
Li Weiyang: ...What do you remember?
"In that case, aunt, please forgive me for my rudeness."
Yun Xirou's eyes turned cold, and the Qingyun Sword was unsheathed in an instant, with the sword body flashing with cold light. She flashed and attacked Wu Shenhuan, her sword style was agile and changeable, like a dancing fairy.
Seeing this, Wu Shenhuan raised her lips slightly, and she stepped on the tree branch, easily avoiding Yun Xirou's attack. The two sides fought back and forth, and it was difficult to tell who would win.
Suddenly, Yun Yirou used a special skill, and her sword was as fierce as a storm. Wu Shenhuan was forced to take a few steps back, secretly praising her in his heart, thinking that she was quite capable.
"Good swordsmanship!" Wu Shenhuan praised, his eyes slightly white, and then he attacked vigorously, "But this is not enough!"
She attacked again, her palm technique was even more fierce, and it collided with Yun Xirou's sword moves, making a crisp sound.
Han Xiuqi was watching the fight from the side. He saw that Wu Shenhuan had no ill intentions and just wanted to test Yun Xirou's strength. He held the jade flute horizontally in his hand and kept an eye on the situation here.
Yun Xirou gritted her teeth, but no matter how she attacked, it seemed like she would be seen through.
She has no chance of winning!! Not at all!!
The palm came whistling towards her with a fierce gust of wind. Yun Xirou had no way to avoid it and was hit hard.
She felt a sharp pain in her chest and her body flew backwards involuntarily.
At this moment, a figure came rushing over like lightning. Han Xiuqi lightly turned the jade flute, stretched out his long arms, and steadily took Yun Xirou into his arms.
Han Xiuqi looked down at the pale-faced woman in his arms, and his heart ached. He gently held her in his arms and asked softly, "Sister Airou, are you okay?"
Yun Yurou endured the pain and shook her head, saying, "I'm fine... Thank you, Brother Han, for saving me."
Han Xiuqi's eyes flashed with concern, and he said, "Miss Yun, you don't have to be polite. I brought some medicine..."
"You have good talent and your swordsmanship is also very good. You should be considered above average in the outside world."
Wu Shenhuan flew down to the ground and acknowledged her talent, but it was just an acknowledgement: "But if you can't beat me, then it will be even more impossible to save your parents."
"..."
"Aunt?! Do you know something? My parents... cough cough cough..."
Yun Xirou asked anxiously. She coughed and clutched the corner of her aunt's clothes tightly, her eyes full of expectation and desire.
As if she could sense Yun Xirou's anxiety, the aunt sighed slightly, and a trace of compassion flashed in her eyes.
Wu Shenhuan gently patted Yun Xirou's hand and said slowly: "There are some things that you should not know, but now that things have come to this, it's time to tell you... Come with me."
Han Xiuqi supported her and walked behind her. They walked over a small bridge. The river under the bridge was flowing gently, and the water surface was sparkling. They walked for half an hour.
Wu Shenhuan brought them to a cave, in front of which was a Qimen Dunjia formation.
She waved her hands and struck out a few times, and a passage instantly appeared in the cave.
"Come in with me." Wu Shenhuan entered the cave first, followed by Yun Xirou and Han Xiuqi.
The light in the cave was dim, and the walls were engraved with ancient runes and patterns. At the end, they saw a stone door. Wu Shenhuan walked forward and pushed open the stone door, revealing a secret room.
There is a stone statue in the center of the secret room, and under the statue is a stone platform, on which is placed a yellowed ancient book.
"You have seen the people in the city, right? They are actually poisoned by the Jaw-beak Gu, which can make them lose their fighting spirit and become mentally depressed until they die."
Wu Shenhuan sighed, pointed at the ancient book and said, "The first half of this book is about how to save the people, and the second half records how to get rid of the puppet."
