Chapter 202: Calling East and West
Ah Jin considered himself to be a dull person, but he never expected that he would be reduced to a laborer ordered around by a mortal woman. Ling Xiang was really embarrassed...
…
Zhao Wuyang was furious. Lingxiang was so injured, yet she still had the nerve to play tricks on him. But when he saw Lingxiang's frail appearance, he couldn't bring himself to complain.
Even a little distressed.
He knew why Lingxiang's legs were like this. She had been injured at Xianyunju, leaving her with a condition that had left her unable to perform techniques like the Cloud Step, not even the Light Kung Fu.
Although he didn't know how Lingxiang got into Yunmengze, when he was dragged into the water by Xinyi, he also saw the stone seat in the lake. It was more than a little distance away from the shore, and it must be impossible to reach it with lightness skills. She must have used the Cloud Step, otherwise she would not have sat paralyzed under the tree at that time.
In his opinion, Lingxiang has always been a woman who looks very energetic every day. How could she be so haggard as she is now?
Seeing Lingxiang's serious injuries, Zhao Wuyang was at a loss. He wasn't as well-versed in the art of medicine as Maidong, nor was he at such a high level of cultivation that he could cure illnesses and remove cataracts. Thinking about it this way, he felt quite useless. He had no way to cure his mother's illness, and even Lingxiang's injuries were beyond his comprehension.
Seeing Zhao Wuyang's gloomy expression, Lingxiang suddenly remembered that Long Qi had told her that Zhao Wuyang already knew about Ah Lu's situation. This matter was, after all, a knot in his heart. If it couldn't be resolved, it might become a demon in his heart. However, she was already busy with her own affairs and really didn't have the energy to guide him anymore.
But we can't just watch this child indulge in this.
Thinking of this, Lingxiang smiled softly and asked, "Where did you find this place?"
Zhao Wuyang was still lost in thought and didn't react for a moment. After a pause, he looked up and asked Lingxiang what she had said. After hearing Lingxiang's question again, he finally replied, "I don't know where I came from. It's hard to tell where I'm from here. Since I woke up and didn't see you, I just kept walking in one direction and came here."
Seeing that Zhao Wuyang was able to answer her questions, Lingxiang secretly breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that little Wuyang was indeed very naive.
"So, what roads did you take on your way here? Did you encounter any dangers?"
Zhao Wuyang told Lingxiang in detail how he had come all the way here: "I didn't encounter any danger, but that swamp looked really scary..." When he thought of the previous situation, he was still frightened.
Lingxiang pondered after hearing what Zhao Wuyang had said. Although she knew very little about Yunmengze, it was impossible for it to be so peaceful. Even if she had encountered something strange, how could Zhao Wuyang have such a peaceful journey? Unless...
Lingxiang understood everything in a flash, thinking that her savior had arrived. She shouted to the people around her, "Since you've followed us, why are you hiding? Can't you see there are injured people here?"
Lingxiang's sudden reaction confused Zhao Wuyang. Could it be that Young Elder Fu Cang was seriously injured and hallucinating? He was clearly traveling alone. If someone was following him, how could he not have noticed the vast swamp?
"If you don't come out, I will wake up Adao. You have seen his grandmother's ability. Although her cultivation is not high, it is more than enough to deal with her."
…
So Ajin had to show up in front of the two of them, but he didn't expect that Lingxiang called him out for no other reason but to ask him to carry her all the way.
Although Lingxiang does look a bit pitiful now, he is a dignified Western Mountain Cat Spirit and has always been able to lie on other people's backs. When has he ever been ridden on someone's back?
Lingxiang on his back was still pointing and ordering him around, but Ajin had a look of despair on his face. He listened to her orders woodenly, but he was helpless.
I can't possibly argue with a little girl from the human race, right? That would be too humiliating!
Thus, amidst the mottled light of the forest, an eight-foot-tall man was carrying a pale-faced woman on his back, and beside him was a young man who was just as tall as his shoulders. This scene was like a painting.
Zhao Wuyang hadn't expected Ah Jin to follow him to Yunmengze, but he also understood why he had been able to travel safely through Yunmengze, and he was very grateful for that. He just couldn't understand why Lingxiang, who was clearly an expert in medicine, didn't heal him?
Hearing Zhao Wuyang ask this, Lingxiang couldn't help but sigh. This was really a long story. In short, her Qiankun bag was not with her, so there was no medicine to use.
The Qiankun bag was Lingxiang's personal belonging, and she had never been seen taking it off. Why wasn't it with her? Did she lose it when she entered the water mirror?
Actually, it is not.
Under Zhao Wuyang's sincere questioning, Lingxiang sighed deeply again: "I hunt geese all day long, but I didn't expect that one day a goose would peck my eyes..."
Yunmeng Lake is home to many strange beasts, and Lingxiang happened upon one just by chance. The monster, called the Evil Beast, resembled a dove, and was adept at reading people's minds and possessing a knack for changing their ways. While kindhearted, it was a liar, often saying one thing and another, and misrepresenting evil.
Lingxiang's Qiankun bag had been stolen by the extortion beast. Thinking of this, Lingxiang felt the pain in her foot grow even worse. She was a distinguished elder of the Yuanqing Sect, and she had always been the only one to extort things from others, and had never been the victim of extortion.
After hearing Lingxiang's complaints, Ajin couldn't help laughing. It turned out that Lingxiang did have an opponent. As the saying goes, "every evil will be punished by another evil", it's just that the time has not come yet.
But Zhao Wuyang was very worried. The Qiankun bag was so important, but now it had been stolen. Where could he get it back in such a big Yunmeng Lake?
Lingxiang smiled upon hearing this, "It's okay, it's okay. Firstly, the Qiankun bag is a magical treasure. To use it, you need a mantra. Even if you get it, it won't work. Secondly, perhaps because Yunmeng Lake is full of spiritual energy, Ah Dao has already entered the demonic realm. When the cunning beast stole the Qiankun bag, he chased after it. No matter how cunning a rabbit is, can it be more powerful than a weasel?"
After hearing what Lingxiang said, Zhao Wuyang finally breathed a sigh of relief, but Ajin's face became gloomy.
It turned out that the little girl had just lied to him. The little weasel wasn't even with her, and she had actually used such despicable means to deceive him. It was simply despicable! No matter how eloquent he was, he wouldn't be able to compare to Lingxiang in the slightest.
But even so, Lingxiang's leg injury should not be delayed any longer. If it is delayed for too long, her legs may be crippled.
Although he said that he should not get involved in worldly affairs, his wife did say before she died that if he could ascend to heaven in the future, he would have to thank Lingxiang.
Forget it, just consider it as a way of repaying her in advance!
