Chapter 152 Weird old man, how do I unbind myself from the system?
At this time, it was already dark outside, and a pile of fire in the middle reflected the anxious faces of everyone.
An held a long sword in one hand, the tip of the sword pointed directly at Dongfang Ming, his eyes burning with anger: "Dongfang Ming, what exactly did you do to Miss Lan? Didn't you say that you had forced the poison out of her body? Why hasn't she woken up yet? Could it be that you did something to her?"
Dongfang Ming stared at Lan Xiyue who had her eyes closed and was unconscious.
Chuchun and Chuxia were already in tears at this moment. They held Lan Xiyue's hands tightly and cried inconsolably: "Miss, please wake up quickly, don't scare us."
Dongfang Ming took a deep breath and said, "Shut up. Xiao Yue'er might just be too tired. Don't bother her."
However, An Er was not convinced. He snorted coldly, his tone full of doubt: "Hmph! You are from Miaojiang, why should we trust you so easily? Who knows if you took advantage of the time when you forced the poison out of Miss Lan to secretly tamper with her? Otherwise, how could Miss Lan still not wake up after so long?"
Yunlei and Yundian also stared at Dongfang Ming with suspicion.
Upon hearing this, Punu took a step forward, waving his hands in the air and loudly protesting, "Our young master would never do such a despicable thing as secretly tampering with her! If he really wanted to harm her, why would he have bothered to send her internal energy to force out the poison? Besides, if the young master hadn't rushed back, how would you have escaped?"
Upon hearing this, An Er snorted coldly, his eyes full of distrust. He folded his arms across his chest, leaned back slightly, and said disdainfully, "Hmph, you Miao people are always so sinister and vicious. Who knows if your young master is colluding with that black-robed man, putting on this hypocritical show in front of us? Who knows what your intentions are!"
As soon as these words were spoken, the already tense atmosphere instantly dropped to freezing point, and the air seemed to be frozen. Everyone was on edge, their eyes full of vigilance and hostility, as if they were about to draw their swords against each other in the next second.
In a corner of the Purple Netherworld, a strange old man frowned and looked at Lan Xiyue, urging her, "Xiao Yue'er, hurry up and get out. If you dawdle any longer, there's going to be another fight outside."
Lan Xiyue curled her lips and said, "Strange old man, what should I do if I want to find you in the future?"
The strange old man stretched out his finger and tapped Lan Xiyue's forehead. Then, he slowly said, "Alright, from now on, you only need to press the Purple Ghost Ring to talk to me, and your body's system will not detect it. However, if you want to enter the Purple Ghost Ring, you can only enter in the form of a spirit."
As soon as he finished speaking, the strange old man waved his arm, and a soft but powerful light enveloped Lan Xiyue.
Lan Xiyue’s eyes went dark, and when she opened them, she heard Chuchun’s surprised cry.
"Miss, you're awake. That's great. Miss, you're finally awake!" Chuchun's eyes were red and her voice was trembling with excitement.
When Dongfang Ming heard Chuchun's call, he immediately strode over with concern on his face: "Xiao Yue'er, do you feel uncomfortable anywhere?" He leaned over slightly, his eyes fixed on Lan Xiyue.
Lan Xiyue shook her head and said, "I'm fine."
An Yi and the others had been on edge, but when they saw Lan Xiyue wake up, they felt relieved, breathed a sigh of relief, and slowly put away their swords.
Punu put his hands on his hips, glared at An Yi and the others, and snorted, "I told you, our young master would never do anything in secret!"
Lan Xiyue's eyes swept across the crowd, finally landing on Yunlei and Yundian. "Alright, I'm fine. Everyone, just rest here tonight. Tomorrow morning, Yunlei and Yundian, you go into town to buy horses. When you come back, we'll set off immediately."
Their previous horses were all killed by poisonous snakes, and this place is still a long way from Magic Valley Mountain. They must get to Magic Valley Mountain as soon as possible. She needs to earn points and find turtle-stinking grass.
Upon hearing this, Yun Lei and Yun Dian immediately clasped their fists and saluted, "Yes!"
Everyone rested on the spot.
Lan Xiyue looked at Dongfang Ming, hesitated for a moment, and then said, "Well, let me take your pulse."
Dongfang Ming was slightly stunned, then the corners of his mouth raised in a wicked smile, "Xiao Yue'er, are you concerned about me?" His eyes were full of smiles, and he deliberately moved closer to Lan Xiyue.
Lan Xiyue turned her head and curled her lips, but thought to herself: He is the grandson of the weird old man. I just want to see how powerful the ghost poison in his body is for the sake of the weird old man's face.
Lan Xiyue stood up, walked to the side, and slowly sat down.
Dongfang Ming sat down next to her like a follower, his eyes falling on the purple ring in her hand, "Xiao Yue'er, where did you get this ring?"
Lan Xiyue knew why he asked this question. After all, the strange old man was the former Miao King and was also regarded as a sacred object by the Miao people.
"I can't explain this clearly right now. Let's talk about it later."
Dongfang Ming's expression instantly turned serious upon hearing this. He frowned and said seriously, "Xiao Yue'er, Damu and the others are here just for the ring in your hand. They will definitely not give up and will definitely come again. Do you know that this ring in your hand is a sacred object of our Miaojiang? We have been searching for it all these years."
Lan Xiyue raised her eyebrows and waved the ring in her hand, "Let them come, I will make sure they never come back next time!"
Seeing him staring at the ring in her hand, Lan Xiyue jokingly said, "Dongfang Ming, what? You want this ring too?"
Dongfang Ming narrowed his eyes slightly, "Xiao Yue'er, if I say I want it, will you treat me as an enemy?"
Lan Xiyue shook her head and said, "I will not treat you as an enemy. From now on, I will treat you as a friend. However, even if we are friends, I cannot give you anything."
But it is also strange. The strange old man was able to get rid of the Ziyou ring, but why is the Ziyou ring like it has grown on her hand and cannot be pulled out?
Dongfang Ming smiled brightly, "Xiao Yue'er, I am honored to be your friend."
An Yi coughed and handed over the wild fruits, "Miss Lan, I found some wild fruits, please have some."
Lan Xiyue took it and said, "Thank you."
An Yi waved his hand and said, "It's my duty. Miss Lan, you don't have to thank me." After saying that, he glanced at Dongfang Ming unhappily and turned away.
Lan Xiyue glanced at Dongfang Ming in surprise, "How did you offend An Yi? I think he's quite hostile towards you."
Dongfang Ming fanned the folding fan in his hand, "Maybe he was jealous of me because I was so handsome."
Lan Xiyue laughed and said, "You know what, you look quite enchanting." How come he doesn't look like the weird old man at all?
"Bullshit! The old man was also very handsome when he was young, okay? This kid has completely inherited the old man's beauty." A voice sounded in Lan Xiyue's mind.
Lan Xiyue was startled and lowered her head to stroke the Ziyou Ring. "Strange old man, my system can't hear you?"
"Don't worry, girl, it can't hear our conversation."
Lan Xiyue heaved a sigh of relief after hearing this, "Strange old man, how can I unbind myself from the system?" She was completely bound to a time bomb.
"This... uh... there's no solution for now. I'll tell you when I come up with a solution."
"All right!"
Dongfang Ming waved his hand in front of Lan Xiyue, and Lan Xiyue came back to her senses. "What are you doing?"
"Xiao Yue'er, how dare you ask me? What are you doing? Why are you just daydreaming?"
