Section 157: One Road, Two Roads, Mount Heng (6)

"Let's do this! Let's set off early and visit Taihang Mountain first. If it's as you said, it's not too late to go to Hengshan Mountain." Ji Cangyu said.

"Wouldn't that mean we have to go around in a big circle? If brother Ruoyang refuses to go around, then we won't even be able to make the 'one way'." Ling'er cursed.

"Isn't this okay?" Ji Cangyu asked with raised eyebrows.

"Why don't you go to Hengshan first?" Ling'er said with a pout.

"Then let's go to Hengshan first!" Ji Cangyu looked at Ling'er fondly, "We will set off early tomorrow morning. In order to deceive others, we will take the official road that passes through Taihang Mountain."

"Early tomorrow morning? Set off a whole day early?" Ling'er was unwilling again. She wanted Brother Yang to recuperate.

"If we want to go to Hengshan Mountain, we have to leave early. We are not sure whether it is Taihang Mountain or Hengshan Mountain yet, so we need to go there earlier. Otherwise, when we find out that it is not Hengshan Mountain, it will be too late to rush to Taihang Mountain." Ji Cangyu explained.

Ling'er looked helplessly at the setting sun outside, thinking: "Brother Yang doesn't have much time to recover from his injuries."

After a hurried dinner, Ling'er planned to go to the tomb on the pretext of collecting the sacrifices.

Ji Cangyu nodded in agreement and left. He had something on his mind. Apart from eating, he spent the rest of his time in the Miaoyi Courtyard and didn't pay much attention to other things.

Zhong Gong and Zhong Long, on the other hand, noticed Ling'er's weirdness, but they only asked a few questions and went back to their yard to pack their bags.

Everyone in the villa was busy with their own affairs, and no one noticed that Ling'er went to the tomb again carrying a food basket filled with dry food and wound medicine.

Although the nurse outside the tomb was curious about why Ling'er came here every day to keep vigil, he did not dare to say anything. After all, it was the owner's business.

Ling'er deliberately walked slowly when approaching the tomb.

Perhaps because he was used to Qi Yang resting every time he arrived, Ling'er was surprised to see someone sitting cross-legged on the bed and adjusting his breath.

"Why don't you lie down and rest?" Seeing Qi Yang turning his head to look at him, Ling'er lit the oil lamp.

"I've had enough rest." Qi Yang said with a smile.

"You are injured, no matter how much you rest, you can't get enough rest!" Ling'er couldn't help but assume the posture of a doctor.

"Doctor Gan is right." Qi Yang looked at Ling'er, his eyes full of doting.

"I'm serious! Uncle Ji...will set off tomorrow." Ling'er looked sad.

Qi Yang was a little surprised and asked: "Master Ji, do you believe what the girl said?"

"No, but he promised to go to Hengshan to have a look first. You... knew that Uncle Ji wouldn't believe what I said?" Ling'er asked frustratedly.

"He acts cautiously and will think more about it," Qi Yang said.

"Then you must have guessed that he would leave early?" Ling'er frowned.

"That's right. So I've taken the time to heal my internal injuries." Qi Yang saw Ling'er's worry and comforted him.

"Are your internal injuries completely healed?" Ling'er asked in surprise.

Qi Yang allowed Ling'er to feel his pulse and looked at her softly.

Ling'er felt the pulse under her fingers was steady and heavy, and was overjoyed. Although Qi Yang's internal strength had not yet fully recovered, the previous internal injuries had been healed.

"So there's no rush to leave tomorrow, girl, don't worry," Qi Yang said.

"But you..." Ling'er met Qi Yang's eyes and forgot what she wanted to say for a moment, only feeling her heart suddenly beating wildly.

Qi Yang's eyes were beautiful, but it was the tenderness in his eyes that made Ling'er's heart move at this moment.

It was not that Ling'er had never looked at Qi Yang before, but this was the first time she had seen such undisguised tenderness in Qi Yang's eyes.
