Dangshan is still several hundred miles away in the west. They still have to travel for five days and five nights to reach Dangshan. After arriving at Dangshan, they have to persuade the Poison King to follow them back to Qizhou City. This time is really too long.

“…It would be great if there was something that could take us directly to Dang.” Gu Yunru was dreaming and closed his eyes painfully. After a while, the sky got dark. The three of them leaned against the huge tree stump and fell into a deep sleep.

But at this moment, they heard a sneaky noise. It turned out that a thief wanted to take their horse away. After hearing the noise, Rong Zhen immediately chased after him. Gu Yunru was waiting there, wanting him to come back.

"Ji Heng, you're not dead yet, are you?" Gu Yunru asked tentatively, and tightened the belt again. Now her waist could be held with one palm. This is what it means to have a slender waist that cannot be grasped with one hand.

Gu Yunru finally understood how hard it was for those beauties who were starving like skeletons. They tortured themselves to please this man's twisted aesthetic. Ji Heng closed his eyes as if he was resting and could not hear what Gu Yunru said. Ji Heng's strange problem was not just that he could see things at night. Sometimes he could not hear any noise when he was in a trance.

"Forget it, I'd better see if there's any water source nearby. If we go on like this, we won't be able to make it to tomorrow." Gu Yunru took a stick, propped himself up, and paced slowly, trying to see if there were any lights or something nearby.

Except for a few remote taverns with lights on, there is nothing else. It can be said that this is just a very ordinary official road. There are ordinary woods nearby, and no prey is seen.

But at this moment, a woman's sobbing cry was heard, accompanied by a scream. Gu Yunru looked around in horror, and vaguely saw two sneaky men in the moonlight, who seemed to be doing something indecent to a weak woman.

"stop!"

Gu Yunru shouted at them loudly. The two men paused for a moment, not finding out who was talking. They thought a ghost had appeared near the mass grave, so they ran away immediately. The woman kept crying, and her voice was intermittent and very scary.

"Girl, are you okay?" Gu Yunru walked forward slowly with a cat-like step, but the girl's voice stopped abruptly. Her lonely and deserted figure in white clothes leaning against the tree was so pitiful.

"Girl?" Gu Yunru called out patiently, slowly approached and patted her shoulder. The girl finally turned her head and looked at Gu Yunru with her clear big eyes, full of innocence and nervousness.

"Don't be afraid, I'm here to help you, but what happened and why are you here?" Gu Yunru bent down and looked at the woman in front of him. She had fair skin and bright eyes. Under the moonlight, her facial features were very delicate and small. She looked no more than seventeen or eighteen years old and looked frightened and helpless.

"My name is Meng'er. I was originally going to look for my father, but was tricked by that group of people and came here..." The woman named Meng'er looked aggrieved, as if she had suffered great humiliation. Gu Yunru was best at standing up for the weak. He helped her up and found that her legs and feet were injured.

"Excuse me, but what's wrong with your leg?" Gu Yunru looked at her limping. Meng'er blamed herself very much and said with her eyes closed, "I broke my leg some time ago, so I can't move around easily..."

"Is that so? Where does your father live? I'll send someone to take you back tomorrow morning, okay?" Gu Yunru regretted asking this question. They didn't even have enough time, so how could they have the time to take a helpless and lost girl back? However, the girl's eyes were full of innocence. This well-behaved and aggrieved look was really distressing. Gu Yunru helped her to the side. Meng'er looked at her with aggrieved eyes and said, "My father is Gongsun Biehe."

"What!"

Gu Yunru thought she had heard wrongly, but she didn't expect that the fallen girl was actually the daughter of Gongsun Biehe. Gongsun Biehe of Gongsun Villa was very famous in the world. Who didn't know him?

But I heard that he only had one daughter, Gongsun Mengyao, but looking at the young girl in front of him, it was obviously not Gongsun Mengyao. Where did this Meng'er come from?

“Young lady, you have heard of my father’s name, I also heard about it from my mother, but my mother passed away a few months ago.

She asked me to take this token to find my father, but I asked around on the way and got lost. I was also tricked into coming here. I escaped at the risk of my life!" Meng'er took out a golden jade pendant. The pattern on the jade pendant was very delicate and looked like something only a wealthy family could have. So the credibility of Meng'er's words was indeed very high.

Gu Yunru thought about it and realized that Gongsun Villa seemed to be in Liping County, only a few kilometers away from here.

"How about this, we'll pass by Gongsun Villa tomorrow, and after we drop you off at the foot of the villa, it's up to you what to do next."

"Really? Thank you, young lady. I really don't know how to repay you for your kindness." Meng'er looked at her with a smile on her face. That clear smile made people want to get closer.

"Why are you here? Do you know I've been looking for you everywhere?" Rong Zhen went to bring the horse back, and then he kept looking for Gu Yunru's shadow. He didn't expect that she was actually here, and she saved a lost girl! Several people returned to sit under the big tree again, looking at the lonely Meng'er. After listening to her life story, even Ji Heng scolded Gongsun Biehe for being too heartless and ungrateful.

"I always thought that Master Gongsun was an upright person and had never committed any sins. I didn't expect that he had an illegitimate daughter. If the martial artists knew about this, they would definitely laugh their heads off." Ji Heng said with a smile, not caring about Meng'er's feelings at all.

Gu Yunru glanced at him sideways, piled up some more firewood, and glared at him and said, "If you can't talk, just say less. Husband, let's send Meng'er back to the villa when we pass by Liping County tomorrow."
