Lu Mo poured out two pills, one was a Soul-Chasing Pill for An An to protect the little guy's heart meridian, and the other was a Body-Nourishing Pill for Jing Jing to regulate her body.
After taking the pill, An'an's complexion improved, which put Lu Mo at ease. He took off his coat, wrapped the two children in it, and carried them home.
After Lu Mo left, Ye Qingqing couldn't sleep either. She waited with Xiaozhu, and her feeling grew increasingly uneasy. Every time she had this feeling, something bad would happen. Ye Qingqing couldn't help but worry and asked, "Won't something happen to your younger brother and sister?"
Even if he's very capable, he's still just a five-year-old child. The mountain is so dangerous; I hope nothing bad happens to him.
The little pig comforted them, "No, your younger brother and sister aren't ordinary children, they'll definitely be fine, and Dad will catch up with them soon."
Ye Qingqing forced a smile, but the unease in her heart grew stronger.
As dawn approached, Lu Mo finally returned, climbing in through the window as before. Ye Qingqing was initially delighted, but upon seeing the unconscious siblings, her heart sank to the bottom.
"What's wrong with being quiet?"
Ye Qingqing's voice rose sharply as she looked at her youngest children in alarm. Both little ones looked unwell, especially An'an, who clearly showed symptoms of poisoning. Ye Qingqing took her youngest son's pulse and her heart sank even further.
Fortunately, Lu Mo arrived in time to feed her the medicine; otherwise, An An's life would have been in danger.
"Jingjing wasn't poisoned, but what did An'an eat?"
Ye Qingqing gave An'an an antidote pill; unless it was a rare or unusual poison, it should be able to cure her.
"I don't know, I met them on the way."
As Lu Mo spoke, he massaged Jingjing's body. She had exhausted herself and needed a massage to prevent damage to her meridians.
"Jingjing, what... what happened to them?"
Seeing the bloodstains on Jingjing's body, Ye Qingqing cried with heartache. Her children had never suffered such a great injustice since they were young. What kind of ferocious beast had they encountered this time?
Lu Mo said coldly, "It's good for them to suffer a little, so they won't become arrogant and think they're the best in the world."
It was just some minor injury, so Lu Mo wasn't worried. On the contrary, he felt it could curb his daughter's arrogance. An'an was alright, but Jingjing had a bad temper and always thought she was the best in the world. It would be good for her to encounter some setbacks.
An'an's complexion gradually improved. Ye Qingqing and Lu Mo hadn't slept, spending the whole night taking care of the two little ones. Zhu Zi also woke up, completely unconcerned about the climbing vines outside the house, and not worried about being seen by others.
"Those on the mountaintop are all my trusted confidants; they won't go out and talk nonsense, and they rarely come down the mountain either."
The people who live on the mountaintop are basically those who have seen through the illusions of the world. That's why they come to the secluded mountaintop to escape the world. Although there is no hustle and bustle of the world, there is also no scheming and intrigue. Everyone is reluctant to leave. In recent years, more and more people have lived on the mountaintop, but some have returned to the world after a few years.
Whether they go or stay, everyone keeps the mountaintop a secret, and no one mentions it to outsiders.
In their hearts, the mountaintop is a paradise on earth, and also their last resort. They have an obligation to protect this secret.
On the second day, breakfast and lunch were brought in through the window. Although everyone was curious about the climbing vine, no one asked. After all, the sect leader always did some strange experiments. Perhaps he was researching growth promoters recently!
That night, Jingjing woke up first, her face and body covered in bright green ointment. She felt weak all over. As soon as she woke up, she asked An'an, "Is my little brother dead?"
Looking at Ye Qingqing with pleading eyes and tears in her eyes, Ye Qingqing originally wanted to scold her, but seeing her pitiful little appearance, her heart softened.
