Chapter 73

: Wish yourself luck, I can’t save you

Pei Qingge and Gui Qing searched every corner of the room, but there was still no trace of their master.

She had no choice but to make a hexagram to ask for directions. The hexagram showed that she was leaving the city and it would be clear when she encountered water.

"It seems that Master was injured outside the city. He walked all the way into Hongdu and happened to come across this abandoned house." Pei Qingge paused as he spoke, "It's not far from the city. Let's go out and have a look."

Gui Qing had no objection and walked out of the city along the northeast corner. After walking for about five or six miles, there was a winding river.

Standing by the river, Pei Qingge frowned slightly. Just as he was wondering, he saw that Gui Qing's expression was slightly excited. He raised his hand to hold Pei Qingge and walked upstream along the river.

The further you go upstream, the higher the terrain becomes.

After passing a waterfall, there is a deep pool on the mountainside.

Gui Qing stopped next to the pool and said, "In the pool."

"Tanli?" Pei Qingge frowned.

"I'll go take a look." Gui Qing said and walked towards the pool.

"It's too dark, let's do it tomorrow." Pei Qingge stopped him, "Let's go back first and ask about this pool. Anyway, it won't take more than a day and a half."

Gui Qing stopped and nodded.

"Anyway, I finally have a clue now." Pei Qingge stretched as he said, "Go back to bed first and have a good rest."

Gui Qing actually didn't need to sleep, and he didn't feel tired, but Pei Qingge was different. He raised his head and looked at the sky before saying, "I'll carry you."

Pei Qingge didn't refuse. After riding a horse for a day and toiling for most of the night, she was really tired.

As soon as Gui Qing arrived at the inn with Pei Qingge on his back, he met Zuo Ci who was impatient.

He was walking around at the door of Pei Qingge. When he saw two people coming back, he hurriedly greeted them. He also saw Gui Qing carrying Pei Qingge on his back. His heart trembled. It couldn't be such a coincidence that something happened to the princess too? "Princess, are you okay?"

Pei Qingge jumped off Gui Qing's back, "What can happen to me in the middle of the night? Why are you hanging around my door without sleeping?"

Her tone was not very good.

After all, Zuo Ci was the first person besides Sang Yu to show kindness to her in the palace before, and he has also taken care of her these days.

But think about it, maybe he was just arranged by Bai Jinye to monitor her. She felt a little uncomfortable looking at Zuo Ci now.

Zuo Ci didn't pay attention to Pei Qingge's tone and just said, "Princess, please go and see the prince. He is...not very well right now."

"Ha." Pei Qingge chuckled. A few hours ago, weren't you still in high spirits when you went to catch a traitor? You failed to catch the traitor, so isn't it bad? "Your prince has also come to Hongdu?"

Zuo Ci's face froze, and after a while he said, "The prince should have arrived two days ago."

Pei Qingge didn't say anything. It was good to live in peace and quiet. She was under the protection of Prince Su's Palace, and if someone wanted to use Beiming Kingdom's magic to harm the people of Prince Su's Palace, she just took care of it.

If Bai Jinye was worried about her coming to Hongdu, he could have made it clear.

What does this mean now?

People in Feng Kingdom are really troublesome these days.

Thinking that she was too lazy to care, he said, "I'm going to rest." After saying that, he turned around and walked to the room.

"Princess." Zuo Ci followed a step and was stopped by Gui Qing. He was a little anxious and didn't want to talk about it in the corridor. But seeing that Pei Qingge was about to close the door, he hurriedly said, "Princess, the prince has become

Concubine Zhang did that and bit Sikong."

Pei Qingge paused as he closed the door, "Didn't I give him the medicine?"

"I've eaten." Zuo Ci nodded, "I've eaten, but it's useless."

Gui Qing turned around and glanced at Pei Qingge. During the process of refining the underworld corpse, he also desperately wanted to drink blood and eat meat, and after that thought came up, this was the only thing left in his mind.

Pei Qingge wasn't around at the time, so he couldn't control himself at all.

When Pei Qingge came back, he had slaughtered all the chickens, ducks, geese, cows and pigs in the temple.

In fact, as long as you survive the first time, the refining process is more than half successful.

But he couldn't get through it. If he couldn't awaken his mind, he would transform into a corpse and would be unable to have his own thoughts.

Therefore, this is also a level that Bai Jinye must go through.

Pei Qingge was silent for a while before asking, "Who did your prince provoke again?"

"This... I have been following the princess these past few days. I really don't know what the prince has done. Why don't the princess go take a look and ask Sikong by the way?" Zuo Ci was a little embarrassed. He didn't even know that the prince had come to Hongdu.

It was only when Sikong sent someone to look for him that he knew something had happened to the prince.

"Did he bite Sikong?" Pei Qingge asked again, "Did the bite break?"

"My subordinates don't know either." Zuo Ci shook his head.

"If it's not bitten, just let him endure it until dawn. If it's bitten, then just be lucky, I can't save him." After saying this, Pei Qingge closed the door directly.

Zuo Ci opened his mouth, but before he could say anything else, Gui Qing spoke first, "Let's go."

"But..." Zuo Ci struggled, "If the situation hadn't been really bad, Sikong wouldn't have sent someone to notify me. Is there really no other way?"

Gui Qing lowered his eyes and said after a while, "Don't drink blood and don't eat raw meat."

Zuo Ci stood for a while longer, but saw that the door was still open. He thought that the prince's situation was urgent and he had to go over and take a look, so he stopped deadlocking, turned around and went out, rushing to the other courtyard where Bai Jinye lived.

As soon as I entered the courtyard, I heard a muffled roar in the room.

Sikong stood outside the door with a team of guards, looking solemn, "Is the princess here?"

Zuo Ci shook his head, "The princess said that as long as the flesh and blood is not touched, it will be fine tomorrow morning. If it is..."

Before he finished speaking, Sikong stretched out his arm, and his wrist was a bloody mess.

Zuo Ci's heart trembled, "How could it be..." After a pause, he asked in a low voice, "Why did the prince suddenly come to Hongdu?"

Sikong was silent for a while, "Didn't you find out that the person who had an affair with Meng Yan in Hongdu three years ago could be Pei Linglong?"

Zuo Ci blinked, "To deal with Meng Yan, do we still need the prince to come in person?"

"The prince wanted to resolve this matter before you arrived in Hongdu, otherwise he was afraid that the Meng family would cause trouble for the princess when she arrived in Hongdu." Sikong looked a little ugly, "If it hadn't been for the princess' matter, the prince would not have come to Hongdu.

I won’t provoke that crazy woman Pei Linglong again.”

After being angry for a while, Sikong recounted what happened tonight to Zuo Ci.

"You mean, it was Pei Linglong who used blood to arouse the prince's bloodthirsty desire?" Zuo Ci frowned, "But in the past, the prince often saw blood on the battlefield."

Sikong couldn't figure it out, so he just said, "Won't the princess even come to see you?"

"How about I go talk to the princess again?" Zuo Ci paused as he spoke, "But the princess also said that if it touches flesh and blood, there is nothing she can do."

"The princess can even cure Mrs. Zhang. Hasn't Mrs. Zhang been drinking blood and eating meat for so many years?" Sikong asked again.

Listening to the low roars in the room, Zuo Ci's heart almost twitched, "I'm going to find the princess, even if it means tying her...even if I kneel down and cripple these two legs, I will kneel down to her!"
