Qian Jue pinched her face.
"I think when you grow up, no one will be able to catch your eye."
Yu Yiluo slapped his hand away, "Indeed, I have seen through the mundane world."
Qian Jue chuckled softly, but found that there was a hint of seriousness on her face, and coupled with her usual style of speaking and doing things, he couldn't help but put away his smile.
Noticing that he was no longer smiling, Yu Yiluo glanced at him and asked curiously, "Why are you looking at me like that?"
"Nothing, it's just that sometimes I feel like you're not like a child."
He had no intention of asking further questions. Yu Yiluo was so smart that she could have concealed her uniqueness, but she didn't.
Luo'er didn't hide her disguise in front of him, which meant she really treated him as a family member. If that was the case, why should he destroy this trust and sincerity?
"Think I'm too smart, don't you?"
Yu Yiluo grinned and said nothing more.
…
The two of them traveled for ten days and finally arrived at Xiangshan.
Yu Yiluo was carried down from the carriage by Qian Jue and looked at the steep mountains in front of her.
“Is this Xiangshan?”
Qian Jue nodded, "The Yanling grass that Junior Sister wants to pick is at the top of the mountain, let's go up."
He put Yu Yiluo on the ground and squatted down.
"Come up, I'll carry you up."
Yu Yiluo obediently lay on Qian Jue's back. Qian Jue told her to hold his neck tightly, gather his energy, and use light skills to fly towards the top of Xiangshan.
The wind blew so hard that Yu Yiluo couldn't open her eyes. She hugged Qian Jue's neck tightly, secretly opened one eye, and searched the mountains for the figures of the Third Prince and Mu Xue.
"Luo'er, are you okay?"
Qian Jue was worried that Yu Yiluo couldn't stand the flattery, so he asked loudly.
Yu Yiluo was about to answer when her gaze towards the mountain paused. She quickly said, "Cousin, move forward a little and then drop to the ground."
“But we haven’t reached the top of the mountain yet.”
Qian Jue said this, but his body moved in the direction Yu Yiluo said.
"I saw someone halfway up the mountain."
The two of them landed on a towering tree not far from the direction Yu Yiluo pointed.
The leaves obscured the figures of the two people. Yu Yiluo looked down and saw this scene.
There was blood at the corners of Mu Xue's mouth, and her snow-white clothes were stained with blood. She looked a little unsteady.
Behind her, the third prince sat against a tree with a pale face, and failed several times when he tried to get up.
Opposite the two men stood several burly men, all of whom had fierce looks on their faces, looking ferocious and evil, and very unfriendly.
"It turns out they are two pieces of trash."
The burly man in the lead looked at Mu Xue and laughed triumphantly, "Girl, if you don't want to take advantage of the brothers, you can also hand over the pretty boy behind you."
Mu Xue sneered, "You want him? You're dreaming."
"dream?"
The burly man walked a few steps closer to Mu Xue and sneered, "You're in this state now. You can hardly protect yourself, let alone him."
"Brother, since she's unwilling to hand him over, why waste time talking to her?"
"Yeah, this little girl doesn't know any martial arts, so why don't we have some fun first."
While they were talking, Mu Xue lowered her eyes, her expression stiffened, and with her hand hanging in her sleeve, she inconspicuously threw out a few silver needles, which flew towards them.
The silver needles silently penetrated the acupuncture points of several people. They were still talking and did not feel the slight pain.
Qian Jue, who wanted to go down to help, stopped and continued to look down.
"Little girls," the group discussed and the burly man in the lead said with a lewd smile, "Since you won't accept my toast, then go and see the King of Hell."
Mu Xue wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth, and a hint of murderousness appeared on her cold face.
She looked at the big man in front of her with cold eyes and sneered, "Who knows who will meet the King of Hell?"
"you……"
The burly man raised his hand angrily and wanted to teach Mu Xue a lesson, but he couldn't lift his hand at all.
Seeing him like this, the others stepped forward.
"Brother, what's wrong with you?"
"I can't move."
Any movement of the meridians causes a piercing pain.
Several people looked at each other and raised their hands to attack Mu Xue, but the result was the same as that of their eldest brother.
Mu Xue raised her eyelids and glanced at the furious people.
"So what? Who's going to see the King of Hell now?"
"What are you doing to us? Don't you know martial arts?"
The news they got was good.
Mu Xue sneered, "Are you really here specifically to find us? If you're here to find us, don't you know I'm a doctor? If you know medicine, how difficult is it for you to use the silver needle to deal with you bastards?"
The expressions of several people changed, and their arrogant expressions just now were now more fearful.
Mu Xue didn't look at the others. She supported her injured body and went to squat beside the Third Prince. "Your Highness, are you okay?"
The Third Prince raised his hand and touched her blood-stained face, and said in a hoarse voice: "Don't worry, Xue, I'm fine."
Since they arrived at Xiangshan, Axue has been collecting Yanling grass every day to test its dosage on wild beasts. After so many days, she has been seriously injured by the wild beasts.
He looked at the wounds on her body, and felt as if a piece of his heart was being cut out. He tried to make her give up several times but failed.
"I'm glad you're okay."
While the two were talking, Qian Jue jumped down from the tree holding Yu Yiluo and landed steadily beside them.
"Third brother, third sister-in-law."
"Luo'er."
Mu Xue and the third prince looked at Yu Yiluo who suddenly appeared and exclaimed in surprise.
"My cousin brought me here to look for you. You guys take a rest first. I'll take care of this."
Mu Xue noticed Qian Jue and said hello, "Senior Brother" with a smile.
"They gave you a love potion."
Qian Jue shifted his gaze to the Third Prince, "The Third Prince is not in good health. This medicine is very potent. If you force the Third Prince to take it, his body won't be able to withstand it."
"I know."
Mu Xue pursed her lips. Only she and His Highness could untie each other, so that the damage to His Highness's body would be minimized.
"You and the Third Prince go and dissolve the Hehuan Powder first. Luo'er and I will clean up here."
Mu Xue helped the Third Prince stand up and said to Qian Jue, who was already walking towards the burly man, "Brother, don't kill them yet. They seem to be coming for our prince."
"Okay, I understand."
With the two of them in the distance, Yu Yiluo walked to Qian Jue's side and looked up at him. His handsome face looked normal, but upon closer inspection, one could find a hint of bitterness in it that was barely perceptible.
Yu Yiluo tugged at his sleeve. Qian Jue lowered his eyes to look at her and asked nonchalantly, "What's wrong?"
"Don't you have a lot of strange medicines? Let them talk and see who sent them here."
Qian Jue raised his eyebrows. He thought Luo'er would not miss the opportunity to ridicule him.
But he was wrong. The care during this period was still useful. At least Luo'er didn't hurt his feelings.
"What do you want to do? We are bandits. We got tempted by their good looks."
The burly man in the lead looked at Qian Jue who was approaching step by step, and his voice trembled a little.
Now they are like fish on the chopping board, at the mercy of others, so how can they not be afraid?
"Would bandits go to Xiangshan, a dangerous mountain filled with wild animals, to harass people?"
Qian Jue took out a porcelain bottle and said, "If you don't want to suffer, tell the truth."
