When Zhang Xiaozu and Yuan Taiping returned to Liujia Village, they were pleasantly surprised when they saw Huang Daonv and others.
But Qi Yoyo's situation made Zhang Xiaozu extremely anxious and worried, and he decided to immediately go to the far north to rescue her.
"grandmother…"
Before leaving, Zhang Xiaozu came to Huang Daonv's bedside and called softly.
Zodiac Girl is still in a coma.
The wounds on her body, including the wounds on her broken arm, have all healed, leaving only the wounds on her soul.
However, the injury to her soul should not keep her unconscious. Wan Qingqiu and others speculated that it was most likely that the serious injury caused her brain disease to relapse, which was why she did not wake up for a long time.
Zhang Xiaozhu took out a drop of Wutong Tears from Sumeru mustard seeds and was about to give it to Zodiac Girl. Suddenly, Zodiac Girl's eyelids twitched, and then she opened her eyes and woke up.
"Is the pawn back?"
She turned her neck, which was stiff due to a long coma, to look at the bedside, and asked in a hoarse voice.
"Grandma, the unfilial grandson is back." Zhang Xiaozu hurriedly leaned over the bed and responded.
Huang Daonv saw the Wutong Tears on Zhang Xiaozu's fingertips and said, "Put away the Wutong Tears. Grandma's time has come and there is no use for them anymore."
"grandmother--"
Huang Daonv interrupted Zhang Xiaozu and said, "You have profound Taoism. Can't you tell how long grandma will live? Or, grandma's words are of no use to you at all?"
"Okay, I'll put it away." Zhang Xiaozhu's eyes turned red and he put away the Wutong Tears.
"Hey, Ping An was kidnapped, have you rescued him?" Huang Daonv asked.
"It's okay. Yoyo was captured by the white ape and taken to the far north. My grandson is going to rescue her." Zhang Xiaozu replied.
Huang Daonv turned to Wan Qingqiu, who was standing next to Zhang Xiaozu, and said, "Qingqiu, can you help me wash and dress my wife?"
"Okay, Master." Wan Qingqiu nodded and responded.
"Pawn, you go out first and wait outside the door."
"good."
Zhang Xiaozu did as he was told.
After half an hour, Huang Daonv finished washing and dressing up and called Zhang Xiaopou into the room.
"Grandma, what are you doing?"
Zhang Xiaozhu was shocked when he saw the zodiac girl's dress, because the zodiac girl was actually wearing a shroud.
This outfit was prepared by Huang Daonv after she ordered Wan Qingqiu to prepare it for Zhang Xiaozu and others when they were trapped in the ancient battlefield.
"Grandma is ill and can't accompany you to rescue Yoyo. Once you leave, grandma doesn't know if she can wait until you come back."
"So, you can kowtow to grandma a few times now, and treat it as sending grandma off on her last journey."
"Let us, grandparents and grandchildren, have no regrets in our hearts."
The Goddess of the Zodiac said calmly.
"grandmother…"
Zhang Xiaozu's eyes turned red and he knelt down.
"Grandma promises you, try your best to live a few more days and try to see Yoyo come back safely." Zodiac Girl smiled.
But then his expression turned cold and he said in a cold voice: "If you can't save me, don't come back. Back then, your father couldn't protect his mother-in-law. If you can't protect your mother-in-law, then what will happen to the old Zhang family?"
The man is so useless that he needs to be exterminated."
Zhang Guangyao, who was outside the door, was so ashamed when he heard Huang Daonv's words that he wanted to find a crack in the ground and crawl in.
Zhang Xiaozu banged his head on the ground and said loudly: "Grandma, mother-in-law, please don't worry. I will definitely bring Yoyo back safely. If not, I will die in the far north."
"Okay, you go."
The Zodiac Girl raised her hand and waved.
"Grandma, please take care of yourself."
Zhang Xiaozu kowtowed a few more times, stood up and left the room.
An hour later, he, Zhou Jianlai, Du Keyi, Niu Dawa, and Yuan Taiping took the bowstring and weapon spirit of the Sun-shooting Divine Bow, left the village, and set off towards the far north.
The remaining people stayed behind in Liujiacun, because the ancient ferocious beasts in the black forest might break out of the confinement at any time, so Liujiacun was always in danger.
To be more precise, the entire southern border of Great Jiangsu is in danger at all times.
The Dasu Empire is already making arrangements to deal with the dangers of the Black Forest.
Before leaving, Zhang Xiaozu and Niu Dawa teamed up to set up a formation. This formation incorporated Niu Dawa's Thousand Miles Instant. Once activated, the people in the formation would be teleported out.
Niu Dawa tried to seal Qianli Moment in the jade piece, but failed.
If successful, he will definitely give everyone a few pieces to keep with them to protect their lives.
Half a month later, a group of five people arrived in the far north.
As luck would have it, in the far north where day and night alternate irregularly, it was daytime.
According to the memory scene left by Master Gou to Niu Dawa, they quickly found the location where Bai Yuan and Qi Yoyo had walked.
Although the wind and snow had long buried all traces, Zhang Xiaozu peeled off the surface snow and found the footprints left by Bai Yuan and Qi Yoyo in the knee-deep snow.
Moreover, the direction in which the weapon spirit senses the bow body is also in the front.
It means that Bai Yuan and Qi Yoyo have not left the Far North.
Following the scene in their memory, the five people arrived at the mouth of a canyon between two tall peaks.
Stopped at the mouth of the valley.
Niu Dawa looked at the dangerous canyon and said: "This is where Mr. Dog got lost. He disappeared because of some mysterious person."
The last scene in the memory left by Master Gou is indeed the back view of Bai Yuan leading Qi Yoyo into the canyon.
"Perhaps there is a formation like a maze..."
"Let's go in and take a look."
Zhou Jianlai guessed.
The canyon is six to seven hundred feet wide, but it appears very narrow against the backdrop of the steep peaks on both sides.
"The footprints disappeared."
About twenty feet into the canyon, Zhang Xiaozu stopped and stared at the snow in front of him with a frown.
The snow in the canyon is deep.
The place he walked behind was swept away half a foot deep by his strength. You could vaguely see the different shades of footprints left by Bai Yuan and Qi Yoyo, but further forward, the footprints disappeared.
"Did it fly?"
"Or did you pass through a certain formation and enter another space?"
"Master Gou guesses that White Ape is most likely going to take his younger siblings to the place of exile in the far north. The place of exile should be a different space, right?"
Niu Dawa guessed.
They knew very little about the Exiled Lands.
"Xiaori, can you sense which direction the bow is? Is it still far away?" Zhang Xiaozu looked at the weapon spirit sitting on Niu Dawa's shoulder and asked.
Qi Ling raised his hand and pointed forward, saying: "Still in front, very far away. I hate this damn place, it's so cold."
He has been living in the flame space since he opened his spiritual wisdom, so when he first came to this cold and freezing place in the far north, he felt uncomfortable all over.
Zhou Jianlai looked around and said: "It is estimated that there is a formation or a gate of time and space. Let's look around. Be careful not to make too much noise. It is very easy to cause an avalanche in this canyon."
"let me."
Zhang Xiaozu said softly, and then took out the red rune, like a dense swarm of ants, crawling in all directions, searching for the existence of the formation.
Zhou Jianlai and the four others saw this and did not move where they were.
In the blink of an eye, a hundred feet in radius was covered with red runes.
And it keeps extending further and further.
But Zhang Xiaozu's brows became more and more wrinkled.
