Chapter 164 Will You Be Sad If I Die
When everyone heard this, they hurriedly chased in their direction.
Mu Xingci stayed behind, and when he caught up, he saw that Ah Man had pushed Yan Baozhu into the narrow intersection. When his men wanted to catch up, they were blocked by the old slave, making it difficult for his subordinates to pass.
He knew very well that when a person wanted to do something regardless of his life, his explosive power was immeasurable, and this old slave in front of him was just like that. Unfortunately, she met him!
Mu Xingci didn't stop for long. He unsheathed his sword and leaped up, the tip of the sword heading straight for Ah Man's chest: "Get out of the way!"
At this time, Ah Man was desperately guarding the intersection with the big knife he had snatched to prevent anyone from passing. After killing several guards, he was also seriously injured.
As an envoy of the Yan tribe, her martial arts skills are naturally not weak. If Shangguan Lan had not suddenly attacked them that night and confiscated all the poisons and insect poisons from them, how could the master and servant be so frustrated until now?
When she tried her best to kill a few more people, she suddenly saw them retreating automatically. Before she could react, she saw the Regent attacking her with murderous intent. This made her eyes flash with ferocity, and she rushed forward with a bloody knife in her hand.
But when her knife collided with the sword, the infinite power instantly overwhelmed her, the knife was picked up and the powerful aura knocked her away, making her fall on the hard rock like a rag, and even the rock was shattered by her collision.
"Go after them for me!" Mu Xingci ordered coldly.
The dying Ah Man wanted to stand up and stop it, but no matter how strong her will was, she could not control her body with all its veins broken. All she could do at this moment was to stare at the culprit with eyes full of hatred.
"Mu...Mu Xingci, has my...wife...been...killed by you?"
"She deserves to die!" Mu Xingci just glanced at her coldly and led his men deep into the mountain path.
Shangguan Lan didn't immediately follow him. Instead, he walked up to Ah Man and said, "Old fellow, I have something to ask you. Were you the ones who poisoned my eyes back then? And am I the son of Yan Beihai?"
“You…if you are not blind, how can my wife enter the house?
We have been plotting... you and your two children for many years, but now... the young master is dead, and you are the only one who can inherit the position of the chief of the Yan tribe.
I never thought my wife...had prepared for half her life, but still lost to fate." Ah Man spoke haltingly, then tilted his head.
After listening to this, Shangguan Lan laughed sarcastically and said, "No matter how cunning you are, you can't defeat the will of heaven." After saying that, he chased after the path.
Mu Xingci and others caught up with the people in front, but they didn't catch up with Yan Baozhu, which made him look extremely ugly. He then ordered Shangguan Lan to lead people to continue chasing and make sure to find the person.
"Regent, don't worry too much. A little girl like Yan Baozhu won't run away." He comforted his master.
"There are still three days left. Send two people down the mountain to look around to see if there are any other Yan people and ask them if they can remove the poison." Mu Xingci said in a deep voice.
"yes!"
After seeing him leave, Yun Wansheng spoke up, "You...don't worry too much. I believe that there is no way out for you. You will be fine."
Mu Xingci turned sideways and looked at the woman dressed as a man: "Wansheng, if I really died, would you shed tears for me?"
"No! So, you either don't die, or you die in frustration." Yun Wansheng said without mercy.
"You're right. I've finally unified the three kingdoms. It would be really frustrating if I died like this." Mu Xingci chuckled.
"Do you regret saving me?"
Upon hearing this, Mu Xingci took a step forward and met the cold and arrogant look the woman gave him with his lowered eyes.
"Wan Sheng, if God really lets me die for a woman, it means that I owe you two lifetimes. I didn't repay you in the last life, and I still haven't paid it back in this life. I just hope we can have a third life."
Yun Wansheng didn't expect him to say that. Seeing that he looked unhappy just now, she thought he would blame her, but she didn't expect him to think so. He really didn't forget to say some words to cheer people up even when he was dying.
"Don't overthink it. A little girl like her can't run far in this deep forest. Let them chase her first while we continue looking for the golden-shelled medicinal insect. That way, we won't waste time when we catch her back."
Mu Xingci looked at the woman's sharp tongue but kind heart, and with a smile on his face, he pulled her into his arms: "With your concern, I am content."
Yun Wansheng leaned in the man's arms, listening to his heartbeat, blinked a few times, and then pushed him away: "It is important for us to find the golden-shelled medicinal insect now." As she said that, she started to look for it under the branches and leaves.
Seeing that she was working hard for him, Mu Xingci had a relieved smile in his eyes, and then he started looking for her as well.
Just when he had given up hope, he suddenly heard the woman's surprised voice behind him: "I caught a few golden-shelled insects."
Her shout immediately attracted several people around her.
Mu Xingci also stepped forward curiously: "Let me see."
Yun Wansheng handed him a bamboo tube that had been prepared in advance to catch insects, and asked uncertainly, "Take a look and see if this is what we're looking for?"
When she saw them, she was so nervous that she didn't dare to say anything, for fear of scaring them away, so she quickly caught them in a bamboo tube and then called for help.
Mu Xingci opened the lid and carefully poured out one. He saw that this fleshy insect was golden all over, as big as a thumb, and had a layer of shell on the surface, like the appearance of a cuckoo pupa.
"You're watching, right?" Yun Wansheng looked at him slightly nervously.
"I think so. How many do you have here?"
"Five. If you look for more, they'll be gone."
"Five should be enough, right?" Mu Xingci asked uncertainly. Looking at the large size of the golden beetle, he felt that it would be enough, but he didn't know how to use the medicine?
"Let's go down the mountain first and find a doctor. Maybe they know a solution?" Yun Wansheng suggested.
"I'll listen to you! Let's go down the mountain." As he said that, he led his few subordinates down the mountain without letting go of the woman's hand.
At dawn, they arrived at Cangwu City. The clinic was not open yet, so Qi Yi knocked the door open.
When the doctor saw the golden beetle in their hands, he said with certainty, "This is indeed the insect used to make the antidote for the poison, but I don't know how to make it. I think you'd better ask a member of the Yan tribe."
There was a hint of disappointment in Mu Xingci's eyes: "Let's go!"
After leaving the clinic, Mu Xingci walked forward without saying a word. Yun Wansheng followed behind him. She could see that the man was in a very bad mood at the moment.
Not long after they checked into the inn, the two subordinates who had been sent out to look for the Yan people returned, having found nothing.
There are no Yan people nearby, and the Yan tribe is out of reach. If Yan Baozhu cannot be found, Mu Xingci's life will be in danger in three days.
