Eternal Life: My Millennia in the Jiaofang Division
Chapter 838 Bai Xiang returns home
Looking at his master, he made a bet with others again.
Xing Le curled his lips secretly: "The old guy is cheating again."
He glanced at Zhao Mu and thought: "You too, you make this kind of bet even though you know you will lose, do you have any brains?"
"How could the master of Diwu Yunzhong and Jiang Zhengshan be Wanyu Daoist? Isn't this a big joke?"
"Forget it, since you want to lose, you can't blame others. The old guy is my master after all, and I can't ruin his stage at this time."
"But the wine in the gourd smells really good. It seems that the old guy has made a lot of money this time. When the time comes, I have to share more wine with him, which can be regarded as accumulating virtue and doing good deeds."
...
Betting with the old man was just a moment of playfulness, and Zhao Mu didn't care too much.
He looked up and saw that in the middle of the crowd, the three masters had already found a cultivator who was good at observing the stars according to Diwu Yunzhong's words.
The monk used mysterious means to deduce the star image 857 years ago, and then used illusion to manifest the star image in the air.
Just when the three masters were about to compare with the star map to determine the location of the ruins.
Suddenly the star map moved by itself.
Buzz!
A strange force surged out of the star map, and it actually directly shocked the three masters back.
"What's going on? Why did the star map move by itself?"
"No, the star map is going to run, stop it quickly!"
"Wait, no, it's not going to run, look, the stars depicted on it seem to echo the illusion in the sky?"
There was a commotion at the scene, and everyone stared at the changes in the star map in surprise.
The stars on the star map were constantly flickering at this time, and the illusion in the sky seemed to be out of the control of the monks, and the stars in it were also flickering and echoing with the star map.
The next moment, the star map suddenly took off and flew rapidly to the north.
"Hurry up!"
Everyone dared not neglect it. Those who had enough cultivation rushed directly into the sky and followed the star map.
Those who were not good enough to fly ran and jumped quickly on the ground, or jumped hundreds of feet, or walked on leaves, chasing the star map from a distance.
Zhao Mu also sat on a cloud, pretending to fly like other immortals, but in fact he was constantly changing his body shape among peach branches and peach leaves in the void.
Beside him, the master and apprentice of "Enjoy Life in Time" also followed on the cloud.
The old man Ji Shi stared at Zhao Mu's wine gourd with greedy eyes. Every time Zhao Mu took a sip of wine, he felt painful.
It felt like Zhao Mu was drinking his wine.
Zhao Mu was also helpless, and had to turn his head and said: "Old man, can you stop staring at me like that?"
The old man rubbed his hands: "Hehe, fellow Taoist, please be merciful, don't drink up the wine before we finish our bet."
Zhao Mu was speechless: "Don't worry, I have plenty of this kind of wine. If I really lose, you will definitely be indispensable."
"Okay, okay, that's good!"
The old man breathed a sigh of relief, but his eyes were still staring at the wine gourd, smacking his lips and obviously greedy.
Zhao Mu was too lazy to pay attention to him, and simply lay on the auspicious cloud.
"It's strange, didn't Yu Niang send a message saying that Yun Zhilan and Han Lingfeng were sent to investigate the ruins? They should be here by now, why haven't they contacted me yet? Is something wrong?"
Zhao Mu was puzzled.
...
Lieyang City, Zhenguogong Mansion
Zhou Yu Niang was handling official business in the study, when suddenly a maid walked into the study: "Lord Duke, Miss Bai Xiang is back."
"That girl is finally back?"
Zhou Yu Niang smiled and said: "It seems that her affairs have been dealt with. Why don't you let her come to see me?"
The maid looked embarrassed: "Lord Duke, Miss Bai was seriously injured. She fainted as soon as she entered the Duke's Mansion. Now the doctor in the mansion is treating her."
"What, seriously injured?"
Zhou Yu Niang's face changed, and her figure disappeared in an instant.
In a bedroom.
Bai Xiang was lying on the bed with serious injuries. A doctor was pinching the seal with his hands and regulating the blood circulation in her body with magic power.
Behind the doctor, the housekeeper of the Duke's Mansion was anxiously waiting with several maids.
Suddenly, Zhou Yu Niang's figure appeared silently.
Seeing this, everyone hurriedly wanted to salute, but she raised her hand to stop her.
Zhou Yu Niang asked in a low voice: "How is the situation?"
The housekeeper quickly replied: "Reporting to the Duke, the doctor said that the injury is very serious, but it is not fundamental. Now we just need to control the injury and not make it worse, and then we can slowly recuperate."
"That's good."
Zhou Yu Niang also breathed a sigh of relief and asked: "When Bai Xiang came back, did she say how she was injured?"
"Miss Bai only said that she was ambushed and attacked by Chu Jinghong's people on the road. She was the only one who survived, and then she fell into a coma. She didn't explain anything else."
The housekeeper was a little angry: "Duke, what do you think Chu Jinghong wants to do? Why did he suddenly attack Miss Bai?"
"He should know very well that Miss Bai is one of your most trusted people. Now he ambushed and killed her without any signs. Is he trying to completely provoke a dispute?"
Chu Jinghong?
Zhou Yu Niang frowned slightly, thinking about the other party's purpose in her heart.
At this moment, the doctor slowly retracted the spell.
Zhou Yu Niang quickly asked: "Doctor Liang, how is Bai Xiang?"
"Reporting to the Duke, fortunately Miss Bai returned in time and did not delay too much time. Now her injuries have been controlled and she will probably wake up soon."
Doctor Liang replied: "In addition, Miss Bai had better rest and take some nourishing elixirs during these days. She should be able to recover within a month."
"Okay, Doctor Liang."
"You are too polite, Duke."
The housekeeper took Doctor Liang away, and Zhou Yu Niang walked over and sat by the bed.
After a while, Bai Xiang whimpered softly and slowly opened her eyes.
She saw Zhou Yu Niang and hurriedly wanted to get up: "Sister, Li Lian and the others..."
"Lie down quickly, don't move, you have to rest well now."
Zhou Yu Niang hurriedly held her down: "I have heard about the matter, but the dead cannot be resurrected. I will have someone investigate this matter and give an explanation to the dead."
"Ah..."
Bai Xiang sighed: "It's all my fault. I was a little careless at the time. I didn't expect Chu Jinghong's people to attack by surprise?"
"What happened at the time? Tell me in detail and don't leave out any details."
"The situation was like this. We were on our way back, and those people suddenly appeared. Obviously they had been ambushed there for a long time..."
"Not only did the other side have more people, but they were also stronger than us. Li Lian and his men fought hard, which allowed me to escape..."
"But I was very aware of my injuries, and it was impossible for me to escape too far at once. So in order to avoid being caught by the other side, I simply pretended to escape with the puppet technique, but hid nearby..."
"Those people didn't know I was nearby, so they didn't have any scruples when talking. That's when I realized that they were actually Chu Jinghong's people..."
Bai Xiang carefully recalled the situation at that time, but she didn't know that her memory had been tampered with.
In fact, she didn't know where those ambushing people came from.
But under the other party's means, her memory linked Chu Jinghong with those people at that time.
And the process of learning the other party's identity was described in her memory as if it had really happened.
