6. Song of the Clouds (V)

In June and July, the Central Plains was extremely hot. In Guangling City, north of the Yunlan River, a girl in yellow was strolling leisurely on the street. Although the war had just been settled, all the places north of the Yunlan River were under the jurisdiction of Prince Ding's Mansion. The Great Chu, which originally had a vast territory, was now truly isolated. Prince Ding's Mansion was very efficient. In just two or three months, Guangling, a place that was not affected by the war, had already recovered its former prosperity.

The girl in yellow was walking leisurely on the street, looking here and touching there from time to time. Her beautiful little face was filled with a bright smile, attracting the attention of passers-by.

This girl was Miss Yun Ge who ran away from Xu's house in Licheng. After leaving Licheng, Yun Ge went south, practicing medicine and traveling around. She lived a very comfortable life. Although she encountered some minor troubles, she could easily solve them with her kung fu. This made it possible for this little girl, who had been traveling alone for the first time since she was a child, to arrive in Guangling without any obstacles.

"Miss... Miss Shen Yunge?"

Yun Ge was looking at a candy stall on the street with a frown on her face, wondering whether to buy anything. Suddenly, a strange man rushed over, grabbed Yun Ge and called out. Yun Ge blinked and asked in confusion, "I'm Shen Yun Ge, who are you? How do you know my name?"

"Miss Shen...Miss Shen, please save my mother." The man said anxiously, and was about to kneel on the ground. Yun Ge quickly supported him and said, "Don't be anxious, talk slowly. How do you know...I can save your mother?"

The man said, "Miss Shen is a skilled doctor with a kind heart. She has saved many lives. I heard about her from others and came here in a hurry. I beg you to show me mercy..."

Seeing his face flushed with anxiety, Yun Ge nodded quickly and said, "Don't worry, I will definitely save your mother. Where is your mother?"

The man blushed and said with some shame: "I was in a hurry to go to the city to find a girl, so I sent my mother to live with a farmer outside the city."

"Then let's go quickly." Seeing the man so anxious, Yun Ge did not dare to delay any longer and walked directly towards the city gate.

Also in a teahouse in Guangling City, a young man named Qingchen, dressed in white, sat by the window, leisurely looking at the busy street downstairs.

"Sir." A man in gray cloth came up the stairs quickly, walked up to Xu Qingchen and whispered, "Miss Shen has left the city again." Young Master Qingchen frowned slightly and said, "She just entered the city, why is she leaving again?"

After leaving Licheng, Master Qingchen followed Yun Ge's path. But Yun Ge's temperament was unstable and her whereabouts were erratic. Sometimes, she would travel two or three hundred miles a day on a whim. Master Qingchen, who was powerless, obviously couldn't follow her. So they walked all the way until a few days ago when they really caught up with Yun Ge. But Xu Qingchen didn't go to see Yun Ge immediately, but followed her from a distance with his men. Yesterday, Xu Qingchen guessed that Yun Ge might come to Guangling, so they went to Guangling first, but they didn't expect Yun Ge to leave the city again before they saw her just after she arrived.

"Just now someone found Miss Shen on the street and asked for medical help, and Miss Shen followed him out." The cloth-clothed man reported in a low voice: "Someone has already followed her."

"Seeking medical treatment?" Master Qingchen frowned. Yun Ge would help anyone who needed help along the way. The fact that her medical skills were praised by Shen Yang showed that they were indeed very good. Along the way, she did get some help for the people, but...

Seeing that Master Qingchen looked depressed, the guards hurriedly said, "Master, don't worry. Miss Shen is quite skilled, and with the guards following her secretly, nothing should happen." Xu Qingchen thought for a moment, stood up and said, "Let's go over and take a look." Yun Ge's martial arts skills were indeed good, but she had almost no experience in the martial arts world. Otherwise, she wouldn't have been followed by them all the way without being noticed. Xu Qingchen always felt that the person who stopped her on the street to seek medical treatment was a little strange. Even if Yun Ge had left some reputation in the places she passed by, it would never spread so quickly. And considering Yun Ge's itinerary, it was even more impossible for the other party to follow her from behind with a patient.

"Yes." Young Master Qingchen looked solemn. The guard also knew that something might happen, so he quickly responded and followed Xu Qingchen downstairs.

Outside Guangling City, Yun Ge followed the man seeking medical treatment and walked to a more and more remote place, then he stopped in confusion.

"Ms. Shen...Ms. Shen, what's wrong?" The man turned around and looked at Yun Ge with a smile. Yun Ge looked at him and frowned, "Where is your mother? There is no one around here."

The man's expression froze for a moment, and he said, "It's right in front. Miss Shen, let's hurry up." Yun Ge hesitated for a moment, but still nodded and followed the man forward.

After walking a little further, Yun Ge finally felt something was wrong. "Where are you taking me?" Yun Ge had encountered some things along the way. The Way of Nature There are not only good people in this world. Although at first she didn't think much about it because of the man's anxious and pleading face, if there was really a patient, why would he be placed in such a remote and hard-to-find place?

The man turned around and smiled at Yun Ge. His originally honest face was now filled with a malicious smile, and he suddenly looked hideous. "Hey, Miss Shen, you will know if you just follow me. Why are you asking so many questions?"

"I'm not leaving!" Yun Ge said in a deep voice, "I want to go back. No one wants me to treat their illness."

"Even though you don't have any illness to see? Miss Shen... Do you think I've been ill recently?" A somewhat greasy voice came from behind. A few men suddenly appeared on the deserted mountain road, led by a thin young man. The man had a sallow complexion, was skinny, and had a pair of cloudy eyes with a bit of evil intent. His originally plain appearance became even more vulgar, making people feel very disgusted at a glance.

However, Yun Ge looked at the men in front of her silently. These men were not ordinary people, even the pale and thin man knew some kung fu. "Get out of the way, I want to go back." Yun Ge frowned and said unhappily. She was not really a person without temper. She came to help people with good intentions but was deceived. It would be a lie to say that she was not angry.

"Get out of the way?" Everyone looked at each other and burst into laughter.

"Miss Shen, I have been following you for most of the day just to see you. If I let you go back like this, wouldn't I be at a great loss?" The thin man stared at Yun Ge with a lecherous smile and said, "I sincerely want to ask you to treat my illness. How about you stay with me for a few days?"

Yun Ge felt disgusted when she met his cloudy eyes. She glanced at him and said, "You are not sick, just cultivate your character and you will be fine." The man had a thin face and cloudy eyes, and it was obvious that he had indulged himself too much.

After saying that, Yun Ge no longer paid any attention to the others, and turned around and walked back the way he came. The man saw that Yun Ge was so disrespectful, and he couldn't help but get angry, and waved his hand and said, "Why don't you take this beauty back to me as a guest."

"Yes!" The people following him answered in unison and came forward to surround Yun Ge.

"Be careful, don't hurt my beauty." This man was originally a famous young man near Guangling, but he had no ability. He relied on his father's wealth to live a life of luxury and debauchery. He was lustful and often did things like robbing women. But the emperor was far away, and no one cared about it now that the country was just beginning to settle down. This morning, when he went out, he saw Yun Ge in a small town treating refugees in the town and then he got pregnant. This daring guy actually followed him for dozens of miles before he came up with a way to trick Yun Ge into coming.

Yun Ge was not someone who could be easily bullied. She glared at everyone with displeasure and slapped a man who was approaching her. Although the men following the man were not masters, they had learned a few moves of Kung Fu. Seeing Yun Ge taking action, the others also rushed over to attack Yun Ge. The thin man was even more excited when he saw that Yun Ge actually knew Kung Fu. "You actually know Kung Fu? Great! Hurry... bring this little beauty back to me. I want to take her as my concubine!"

Yun Ge was so angry that his face turned red. He raised his hand and a dark light shot towards the man. The man also knew some martial arts. When he saw the hidden weapon coming at him, he quickly dodged to the side. When he looked back and saw the dart nailed to the tree, he was so scared that he broke into a cold sweat.

"Waste! Hurry up! You can't even beat a woman!" the man roared.

Although these men were tall and strong, they were definitely no match for Yun Ge. During the fight, several people looked at each other, two of them looked at Yun Ge, and one of them took out a bag from his arms and waved it in Yun Ge's direction. Yun Ge was shocked, "Soft muscle powder?!"

Yun Ge was a medical student, so she naturally knew the power of this Soft Muscle Powder. However, she was entangled by several people, and although she tried her best to avoid them, she was still infected. She didn't care about these people at the moment, and Yun Ge waved her hand to force a man back, and flew away. She knew very well in her heart that once the toxicity of the Soft Muscle Powder took effect, she would really be at their mercy.

"Hurry up and chase them! What a bunch of trash!" The man got furious when the duck that was about to be in his mouth flew away and shouted angrily.

"Sir... that girl doesn't seem to be an ordinary person..." One of them whispered to persuade them. Although they didn't have much experience, the fact that she was able to run away after being hit by the soft muscle powder, and her martial arts skills were so powerful, didn't look like an ordinary person at all. What if they really offended someone they shouldn't have...

"I don't care about her." The man sneered, "In Guangling, is there anyone more powerful than my Huang family? Wait until she becomes my person..." Seeing him like this, the guards naturally did not dare to object and hurriedly chased in the direction Yun Ge fled.

Yun Ge was running towards Guangling City with her Qinggong skills, and she could clearly feel herself sweating and her body was a little weak. It was obvious that the rickets had become more severe because of her running. But she didn't have any medicine to cure the rickets.

Gradually, even his Qinggong skills could no longer be used. Yun Ge finally fell to the side of the road exhausted, unable to even lift his hands.

Damn it... Yun Ge couldn't help but curse those bad guys in her heart, and she also became a little anxious. She remembered... she seemed to have seen some antidote on the way here... Yun Ge tried hard to recall, while forcing herself to stand up and go in the direction of her memory. But she fell down again just after she stood up.

Soon, the men caught up with her again. Seeing Yun Ge fall to the ground, the thin man laughed triumphantly, "Little beauty, run, why don't you run?"

Yun Ge glared at him fiercely, "You bastard... despicable!"

The man laughed even more proudly, "Asshole? Despicable? This is all your fault, young lady. If you hadn't been so unwilling to obey me, I wouldn't have wanted to offend such a beautiful lady. My family is very wealthy. As long as you follow me back obediently, you will enjoy endless glory and wealth."

"Who cares about your wealth!" Yun Ge said disdainfully. She also had a lot of money. Sister Li said that the money her father left her was enough for her to live a life of luxury.

The man had already lost his patience. Seeing Yun Ge like this, he sneered and said, "Not interested? You won't say that when the time comes. Come on, bring the little beauty back to me."

The two male followers stepped forward and tried to pull Yun Ge up. Yun Ge bit the tip of his tongue hard, and taking advantage of the severe pain, he swung his hand and threw out a hidden weapon. Then, while everyone was dodging the hidden weapons, he used the little strength he had just accumulated to stand up and tried to run forward.

"Catch her for me!" came the man's angry and defeated voice from behind.

Yun Ge tried her best to run forward, but no matter how strong a person's willpower is, sometimes it can't resist the effects of drugs. Because she overexerted herself, Yun Ge clearly felt her eyes go dark from time to time. When she stopped again, she would not only be completely powerless, but she would also pass out completely. So she desperately told herself not to stop, not to stop...

"Stop! You damn girl..." Those guys caught up with them again.

Yun Ge couldn't help but feel a little desperate. She was just a little girl who hadn't experienced much. It was rare for her to be able to hold on until now after encountering such a thing. Unable to help, tears slid down from the corners of her eyes, and Yun Ge fell to the ground again.

“Woo woo….”

"You are so stupid, and you are still running around. What would you do if I didn't come to find you?" A soft voice with a hint of helplessness sounded, but in Yun Ge's ears it was like the sound of nature. Yun Ge lost a hug with a hint of coolness and the scent of ink, and for a moment she couldn't help but be a little stunned. She raised her head and looked into those gentle and peaceful eyes. But those eyes were now filled with a hint of coldness and turmoil.

"Xu...Xu Qingchen, is it really you?"

"Who else could it be if not me?" Xu Qingchen sighed helplessly. Seeing how hard she was trying to hold on, he could only sigh with pity and stroked her hair gently, saying, "It's me. It's okay. Be good... go to sleep."

Yun Ge just felt at ease, leaned in his arms and slowly closed her eyes.
