The butler didn't know the origins of Ye Xiaoxiao and others, but he was under someone's control at the moment, so he didn't dare to lie.
"Madam, please spare my life. I am only the steward of the City Guard House."
"There are indeed minerals on Xicheng Mountain, but as for what kind of minerals they are and how many mines there are, I really don't know."
"These matters are all communicated between our Lord City Guard and those people on the mountain. He never tells us servants."
Ye Xiaoxiao listened carefully to the housekeeper's thoughts and found that he was not lying, so she looked at Li Mo again.
Because of the food and wine, Li Mo's whole body began to twist on the ground.
Ye Xiaoxiao frowned and listened to his thoughts, which were all unhealthy, so she had to give up temporarily.
"Husband, let's leave here first."
Shangguan Lingyun nodded and left with Ye Xiaoxiao.
Before leaving, Wang Xiao considerately closed the door for them to ensure that they could not escape.
Before they left the City Guard's Mansion, some unpleasant noises were heard in the room.
Shangguan Lingyun directly covered Ye Xiaoxiao's ears, then carried her in his arms and used light skills to leave.
Ye Xiaoxiao was happy and relaxed, letting Shangguan Lingyun take her away.
When they settled down again, they had already arrived at the foot of Xicheng Mountain.
"Should we go collect herbs first, or go for a walk in the mountains first?"
Ye Xiaoxiao asked Shangguan Lingyun for his opinion, and Shangguan Lingyun spoke calmly.
"Get the herbs first. It would be bad if they destroyed them."
Ye Xiaoxiao had no objection, but she always felt that it would not be so easy to obtain this herb.
Following the message left by the secret guard, several people headed towards a remote place on the mountain.
As we walked further and further, the terrain on the mountain became increasingly unsafe.
"Xiaoxiao, are you sure the message from the No. 1 Village in the World was sent here?"
Ye Xiaoxiao shook her head. "The people from Number One Village in the World also heard about it by chance from the villagers on the mountain."
"As for this herb, they probably haven't seen it before either."
Shangguan Lingyun frowned, "Without any definite information, how dare you walk here alone?"
Hearing the blame and worry in Shangguan Lingyun's words, Ye Xiaoxiao smiled awkwardly.
"I just wanted to leave the palace and come over to see you. Who knew you would follow me?"
[However, since someone saw it, it shouldn't be fake.]
"Okay, I'm just concerned about the poison in the children."
"Don't even mention that someone saw it. Even if it's really fake, I will do my best to find it."
Shangguan Lingyun sighed, but ultimately said nothing more.
Ye Xiaoxiao said no more and pointed to the cliff behind her.
"It is said that the herb is under the cliff. We need to find a way to go down and take a look."
After Ye Xiaoxiao finished speaking, Wang Xiao and Tian Xuan looked down the cliff.
The cliff was as straight as if it had been cut by a knife, and there was no place to step.
"Master, we need to summon the secret guards."
Shangguan Lingyun nodded, and Wang Xiao fired a signal into the sky.
About half an hour later, the sound of orderly footsteps was heard behind him.
"Master, they are coming."
Shangguan Lingyun glanced at Ye Xiaoxiao.
"You and Tianxuan wait up there, I'll go down and take a look first."
Ye Xiaoxiao frowned, then remembered the flower liquid the system gave her, and immediately took it out and handed it to Shangguan Lingyun.
"Take this with you. If you see a branch without flowers, pour this potion between the two top leaves."
Ye Xiaoxiao carefully told Shangguan Lingyun the message the system gave her.
Shangguan Lingyun had long known the use of the raw flower liquid. He nodded and prepared to go down the cliff with the raw flower liquid.
The secret guards brought a very long and thick rope, and they left a few people on it to protect Ye Xiaoxiao and the rope.
A few more people were sent to protect Shangguan Lingyun and Wang Xiao down the cliff.
Everything was ready, and Shangguan Lingyun took the lead and flew towards the bottom of the cliff.
Ye Xiaoxiao looked at him falling and couldn't help but feel worried.
"Husband, please be safe. I'll be waiting for you here."
Shangguan Lingyun smiled lightly, without hesitation, and flew downwards.
The cliffs were bare, so he only had to glance over to know there were no herbs.
In desperation, he had to continue going down.
But along the way, the few scattered weeds on the cliff were not the kind that Ye Xiaoxiao described.
"Master, the rope is almost at the end, but there's still a long way to the cliff."
Shangguan Lingyun frowned deeply, thought for a long time, and finally whistled towards the sky.
The whistle sounded, and the eagle soon appeared beside him.
"Wang Xiao, wait for me here. I'll take the eagle down to take a look."
When Wang Xiao heard this, he stopped it immediately.
"Master, absolutely not! It's bottomless down there. Doing this is too dangerous."
Shangguan Lingyun looked down again, then let go of the rope and jumped onto the eagle's back.
Although the eagle is huge, it still has some difficulty sinking with a person on its back.
Looking at the eagle's crooked body, Wang Xiao was so scared that he almost let go of the rope and jumped down.
"Commander Wang, no! Not only will you not be able to help the master, you will also harm him."
Wang Xiao was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan. After much deliberation, he had to let everyone return temporarily.
"You go back and prepare the ropes. I'll wait here for the master to come back."
The secret guards knew that they could not help here, so they followed Wang Xiao's instructions and all climbed up the cliff.
