Shadow felt aggrieved. How could he be afraid of death?
He was afraid that Su Qi would be in danger. Even if Gu Beiheng died, there were still four little masters.
"Madam, I am willing to follow you."
The only thing in Su Qi's mind was Gu Beiheng's death in his previous life and him running in the jungle with blood all over his face. He had no interest in anyone else and snorted coldly with his nose turned up.
"Don't even think about calling the old lady. If I can't leave, you'd better get out of here too."
Shadow dropped his eyes.
He really meant it.
Yingyi hurried out to prepare, but Su Qi did not let him harness the carriage.
She planned to ride away on horseback.
Su Qi left a letter and asked Xiang He to wait until dawn to inform Qin Wan and Yun Manyu.
Su Qi took Ying Yi and Ying Er, Ying Zi, and Bai Zhi away from Mengjiazhuang, leaving Ying San and Ying Si to stay in Mengjiazhuang to protect the four children.
Now Zhi Yi and others have grown up.
The safety of Mengjiazhuang is fine.
Su Qi and Ying Yi rode a horse and traveled day and night.
It took five days to get there.
Yingyi received a secret letter from Yingliu.
Gu Beiheng disappeared in Xiaoyao Forest.
Yingliu and his companions also lost half their lives, but fortunately they all came out alive. Thinking of Gu Beiheng's risky attempt, Yingliu felt annoyed to death.
He sent a secret letter to Yingyi, informing him of Gu Beiheng's missing location.
After resting for half a day, he took a group of new shadow guards into the forest to look for Gu Beiheng.
Su Qi looked at the place where Gu Beiheng disappeared, and finally asked Ying Yi to take them directly to the forest.
"Madam. It's so difficult to travel among the wild beasts in the mountains. You..." Yingyi didn't say anything else.
"Yingyi. Beiheng will leave clues, some of which only I can know." Su Qi said seriously.
"yes."
We traveled every day for the next few days, day and night.
Yingyi and several others rest for two hours every night.
Every few hours he would find a market to buy a new batch of horses.
Five more days passed.
Su Qi, Ying Yi and others arrived at the vast forest.
Yingliu is already waiting here.
"Madam, I will take you to the place where I disappeared. We followed the marks I left behind and found that the marks were broken at a cliff." What Yingliu didn't dare to say was that there were a lot of bloodstains there.
"Wait, let me take your pulse first." Su Qi glanced at the deep jungle and did not go in immediately.
She could tell at a glance that something was wrong with Yingliu.
Ying Liu's face was swollen, his lips were dark blue, and his eyelids were also dark, which showed that he had been poisoned.
Ying Liu suppressed the bitterness in his heart and stretched out his hand. He said with tears in his eyes, "Madam, in the critical moment, the master led the enemy away for our survival."
"We were all drugged at the time, but Grandpa was the only one who didn't react."
Su Qi knew that Gu Beiheng had no reaction because he had taken a drug similar to the marrow cleansing pill.
"Bei Heng was right to lead the enemy away. Those people didn't want to kill him. I'm afraid they wanted to capture him alive." Su Qi took his pulse and began to detoxify with silver needles. "This medicine is not an ordinary poison. It won't kill you, but it will make you look at your body stiff."
"Where are the others?"
"In a nearby town." Ying Liuyi gritted his teeth and said, "Madam, go find me first."
"Save you first. Otherwise you will die too. Crushed to death by your own stiff bodies." Su Qi put away the silver needles and stood up.
Ying Liu stood up as well. He knew Su Qi was right. He had been walking slowly these past few days, and his hands and feet often felt like they weren't following him.
Su Qi followed Ying Liu to the town, where Ying Qi and several others were lying in a secluded yard. A girl in pink clothes was taking care of them.
When she entered, Su Qi just saw the girl in pink clothes wiping Ying Qi's forehead with red eyes.
"Madam." Yingba saw Su Qi first, "I am guilty of losing my master."
The girl in pink stood up, bowed to Su Qi, and then walked out.
Su Qi didn't say anything, but she knew at a glance that Ying Qi was the most seriously injured.
Treat Yingqi first.
Half a day had passed by the time Su Qi had treated everyone.
She wrote down a prescription and asked someone to get the medicine for Yingqi and the others to take.
"Shadow Six, please follow us."
"yes."
The sun outside is about to set.
No one suggested waiting until tomorrow to set off. Everyone spontaneously packed their backpacks and the weapons they were carrying at all times.
Yingzi took the initiative to ask Su Qi for a backpack. He was shocked that Gu Beiheng did not leave his men behind but took the risk himself.
From the time they met Shadow Six at the edge of the forest to now when they all set out to look for Gu Beiheng, Shadow found it hard to believe that Gu Beiheng was essentially an emperor without having ascended the throne, and that he hadn't even used a few Shadow Guards to escape on his own.
Shadow guards are always ready to sacrifice themselves for their masters.
Su Qi looked at him silently, but still gave him a backpack. "If you don't understand, ask Yingyi."
The group set off in a hurry.
The forest at night is like a wild beast with its black mouth wide open. The calls of various animals intertwine to create jungle music.
Su Qi took the flashlight and gave it to Yingyi and Yinger.
Shadow Two and Shadow are behind.
Ying Yi and Ying Liu were in the front, Su Qi and Bai Zhi were in the middle, and behind Su Qi and Bai Zhi were seven or eight secret guards.
Each of them carried a backpack and held a sword in their hands, watching the movements in the jungle.
Yingliu and Yingyi reached out and touched the trees beside them, exchanging glances.
Yingyi came over and reported to Su Qi, "Madam, it's some distance from where the master disappeared. I will take you there."
"good."
Su Qi doesn't know how to do Qinggong, so naturally she needs someone to take her away.
Ying Yi held Su Qi in one hand and then stepped onto the treetop. The group did not turn on the flashlight, but moved forward quickly under the cover of darkness.
Arrived at the place.
Su Qi and Ying Yi checked it carefully.
After a round, Su Qi roughly understood.
The little red snake wrapped around my arm arched its body in one direction. No matter how hard I tried to cover up the traces, I couldn't escape the little red snake.
Su Qi followed the little red snake to a stream. This time, instead of moving forward, the little red snake ran to check.
Su Qi asked Ying Yi and others to rest on the spot for a while.
Two hours later, it was almost dawn.
Su Qi opened her eyes and saw the little red snake coiled like a mosquito coil on her clothes. Seeing Su Qi wake up, the little guy rubbed Su Qi's arm to please her.
Bent over and pointed upstream of the stream.
"Madam, the upper reaches of this stream are deep mountains, and on the other side of the mountains is the river." Yingyi had returned from hunting and cooked noodles on the fire. He also grilled some meat, preparing to take any leftovers with him on the road.
Su Qi's mind moved, "Where is the source of this river? Where does it end?"
"The source is in Tianshan Mountain. The river flows through some places in Dai Viet Kingdom and into Dashun Kingdom, and finally into the sea in Dongqi." Yingyi's heart moved, and he thought of Long Xuancheng of Dongqi Kingdom.
"Long Xuancheng from Dongqi Country?" Ying Er also thought of this person. "What's strange is that Long Xuancheng seems to have disappeared in the past six months. The Shadow Guard can't find Long Xuancheng in Dongqi Country."
Su Qi closed his eyes and fell into deep thought.
Which direction was Gu Beiheng heading? Towards Tianshan or Dongqi?
After a cup of tea, Su Qi slowly opened his eyes.
"Kageroku, you said the strangers you spotted in town were in the same group as the people in the forest?"
"Yes. When we caught them, they all committed suicide by taking poison."
"That means they were originally going to pick up the people in the forest. Let's go to Dongqi." Su Qi gave an order and everyone took action.
It's faster to go by water.
Everyone decided to cross the forest and take the water route from the river to Dongqi Kingdom.
On the other side of the forest lived a small tribe, whose people lived by the river and the mountains.
Not having any contact with people outside, the fact that the group from the forest could pass by here means that they knew each other or had some connection.
On the morning of the third day.
Su Qi and the others arrived at the riverside.
Along the riverbank there was a basin of several dozen mu, where various crops were planted. The sparse crops did not grow well.
There are wooden houses all over the mountain.
As soon as Su Qi and his group appeared, they were blocked by a group of people.
