Chapter 157 All under house arrest
The last time I saw him, he was still bald, but in just a few days, many scabies grew on the third prince's head. Pus with a foul smell slowly flowed down his bald head, and even his collar was dyed dark yellow.
"Don't look! What are you looking at?" Chen Yan saw this and immediately stiffened her neck and yelled at the prisoners, "If you dare to look again, I'll gouge out your eyes!"
She really thought too much.
Even if you beg these fugitives, they don't want to take another look.
The pus-filled sores on his head almost made them vomit their last meal.
A guard hurried forward and covered the third prince with a black cloth.
The third prince hurriedly got up from the ground, covered his head, and looked at the prisoners coldly.
The look was so sharp and vicious that even the worldly-wise Hu Dahai felt a chill when he saw it.
After seeing Shen Wan in the crowd, the Third Prince's glass-like eyes moved slightly.
He didn't say anything and turned back into the thatched hut.
"Wait for me!" Chen Yan took a look and quickly chased after him, twisting her plump waist.
Looking at their backs, Xie Murong in the crowd smiled sadly.
She really let go of this man.
There was only a "bang" sound, and the half-worn wooden door closed tightly.
The convicts looked at each other with a look of gloating joy on their faces.
Ever since the poisoning incident, they have completely lost their trust in the dog emperor and his son.
As long as the third prince is in trouble, that is their greatest happiness.
Seeing this, Shen Wan deliberately said to Hu Dahai: “Brother Hu, while the weather is good now, let’s go quickly.”
She just didn't believe that the extremely suspicious Third Prince would let them go.
Hu Dahai didn't want to have anything to do with the dog emperor and his son, so he nodded.
So he ordered to set off immediately.
Sure enough, as soon as they saw them trying to leave, the guards immediately stepped forward to stop them: "I'm sorry, you can't leave now."
"Why?" The convicts immediately became angry when they heard this.
The guard smiled and said, "Don't worry, everyone. The Third Prince means well."
"This poisonous forest is full of dangers. Traveling together will help us keep each other safe."
What the hell is taking care of me!
The third prince clearly didn't want to spread this matter.
If it can be cured, everyone can leave the forest safely.
If the disease cannot be cured, this group of people must be killed.
Upon hearing this, the convicts became furious.
Even though they were unjustly exiled, they still went to the Northwest obediently, but the high and mighty Third Prince wanted to push them to their death!
Isn't this forcing them to rebel?
"What if we have to leave?" Hu Dahai frowned, and his rough hands subconsciously pressed on the long sword at his waist.
The guard glanced at the rough hand and grinned sinisterly, "Then you'll have to sacrifice your heads."
Upon hearing this, Hu Dahai's face suddenly changed.
He was about to draw his long knife, but was stopped by Shen Wan: “Brother, don’t be impulsive.”
"The old Valley Master is a skilled doctor. I'm sure the Third Prince will recover soon."
"If this delays our trip, I believe the Third Prince will explain it to us."
This time when he came to Yaowang Valley, the Son of Destiny brought a lot of well-trained guards with him.
If a fight really breaks out, I really won't have the advantage.
What’s more, Shen Wan didn’t want to leave, but if she took the initiative to stay, the bastard Third Prince would definitely become suspicious.
After hearing this, Hu Dahai finally swallowed his anger.
At this time, the half-worn wooden door opened again, and the old valley master came out carrying a medicine basket.
He had just taken a step forward when the guard came forward with a smile: "Old Valley Master, where are you going?"
Obviously, not only Hu Dahai and others, but even the people in Yaowang Valley were put under house arrest.
"Go find some medicine for your master!" He said angrily with a sullen face, "Why, even I can't go out?"
"Okay, okay, okay, then I won't go out either. Let your master have scabies for the rest of his life."
Upon hearing this, the guards panicked.
He quickly bent down and smiled: "Old Valley Master, please don't misunderstand me. I didn't mean it in a sarcastic way."
"But collecting herbs is a rough job, so why bother doing it yourself?"
"If I don't go, why are you going?" The old valley master's face turned pale and he cursed, "I'm the only one who knows that herb. If you pick the wrong one and kill your master, it won't be my fault."
The guard wanted to speak, but the gentle voice of the Third Prince came from inside the room: "Let the old Valley Master go. With Brother Lingshu here, I will be fine."
Even a fool could tell that Lingshu, who was disguised as a man, was being taken hostage.
After hearing this, the guard gave up.
The old valley master spat viciously before stepping out of the room.
When he saw Shen Wan and others still in the yard, he became even more angry.
Seeing him looking at her, Shen Wan deliberately made a bowl of sour plum soup, looking leisurely and contented.
Sure enough, the old valley master's expression became even uglier.
It's such a hot day, and I have to go out to pick herbs, but this ugly girl can drink sour plum soup here. How unfair this world is!
He stomped his feet in anger and left.
"Do you think he can be cured?" Xie Mubai asked in a low voice as he watched the old valley master's back gradually disappear into the distance.
Shen Wan drank a sip of sour plum soup and smiled: "Maybe."
Looking at her brilliant smile, the villain suddenly felt that this matter might not be so simple, and the Third Prince might suffer this time.
Xie Mubai was not wrong.
At this time, the Third Prince's scalp was itchy and painful, and he wished he could tear his scalp off.
Seeing him in such pain, Shen Yan was overjoyed.
He deserves it! Who ordered someone to break his own leg?
She suppressed her smile but still pretended to be concerned: "Third Prince, why don't you take a nap first? You won't feel uncomfortable if you fall asleep."
The question is, can the third prince sleep now?
The third prince frowned slightly, a hint of impatience flashing across his eyes.
Seeing that this guy actually ignored her, Shen Yan turned her anger on Ling Shu: "Don't you have any way to relieve the itch?"
"I have only been studying medicine for a short time and am not qualified to treat patients yet." Lingshu said unhappily as he sat on a rattan chair.
She's been taken hostage, it's strange that she's in a good mood.
"I don't care, you have to save my life right now!" A mere little disciple dared to disrespect her, which made Shen Yan even more angry.
When Lingshu heard this, he became even more furious.
"What gives you the right to order me around?" She slammed the table in anger and shouted, "Your mother is just a maid serving my senior sister, and I am a formal disciple."
"Strictly speaking, your mother is also my slave."
"As the daughter of a servant, what right do you have to yell at your master?"
When Shen Yan heard this, her face turned pale with anger.
She was about to continue arguing when the Third Prince shouted impatiently, "Don't embarrass Brother Lingshu. I will just be patient for a while."
Since he was from Yaowang Valley, he felt he needed to win him over.
After hearing this, Lingshu couldn't help but look at him again.
"But I see you're feeling miserable and anxious!" Shen Yan couldn't help but get anxious when she saw that this guy wasn't on the same side with her.
"It's okay, isn't Chen Wan outside?" When he thought of the black-faced little girl, a strange light flashed in the eyes of the third prince, "Let her in."
"For the sake of the old master, she shouldn't just stand by and watch him die."
