Chapter 456 Lost Contact Outside the Pass (1)
Shen Yu, "!!!!"
Third Uncle, you are a big liar, when did you ever boil medicine for me? !
Although Shen Nan sympathized with the princess very much, he did not object. After all, Third Uncle was a legendary figure in the Lu family. His skill in making medicine was indeed extraordinary. The effect of all the medicines made by him would be improved.
It is said that when he was a child, my uncle hated learning medicine the most, but he was particularly obsessed with studying pharmacology. He was extremely sensitive to the order of adding herbs and the control of the temperature. He was always able to develop his own logic without any guidance. Although the taste of the medicine was ridiculous, it was always good, wasn't it?
Shen Yu covered his mouth with both hands and glared at Lu Yingxing: Can't you smell the weird smell of this medicine!!!
Just as Lu Yingxing frowned, the voice of his third uncle came from behind, "Your Highness, if you drink this bowl of medicine three times, it will have the same effect as drinking other medicines six times."
"I would rather drink ten times!!" Shen Yu almost yelled.
Third Uncle nodded, showing his understanding, and said with a good temper, "All medicines are poisonous. Besides...pregnant twins are inherently more dangerous than a single baby."
Damn it!!! They use this trick again!!!
When Lu Yingxing heard this, he really fell into the trap. He sat over and gently hugged Shen Yu and advised, "Madam, can I feed you? I just hope that you and the child are fine. If you drink more bitter medicine now, you will have a safer delivery, right? How about I drink a bowl with you?"
Shen Yu thought it was a good idea as soon as he heard it, and nodded with sparkling eyes. He had drunk it himself, so he should understand the power of "Lingzhu Temple Ghost-Seeing Spirit"!
In the end, Third Uncle's words killed her wishful thinking in the cradle, "Medicinal herbs are precious, how can we waste them?"
Shen Yu's smile froze on his face, but when he saw Lu Yingxing's worried expression, and thought of this man who had rushed over overnight to accompany him, oh!
Love is indeed a taboo for reason!!
She took a deep breath, determined to go to the battlefield and die, and stretched out her hand tremblingly. She asked Guyu to help her prepare a large plate of candied fruit, and then poured three cups of water. Then she held her breath and drank the medicine in one gulp, leaving only determination and resoluteness at the corners of her mouth.
Zhao Fan looked at the princess curiously, and asked, "Is this medicine... hard to drink?"
The Third Uncle Master glanced at him lightly and memorized the man's appearance. In the near future, Zhao Fan would receive special love from the "Ghost of Lingzhu Temple" for his stupidity today.
Shen Yu threw the bowl down, drank three glasses of water, and stuffed three candied fruits into her mouth, but her face was still pale, as if she had experienced some inhuman torture. The feeling of nausea from the bottom of her heart finally made her have a complete childhood!
Third Uncle nodded with satisfaction, took his medicine bowl and Shen Nan, and left in style.
At this point, the last young fish that escaped the net of the Lu family of Lingzhu Temple, even after growing up, was ultimately unable to escape his clutches.
Shen Yu leaned on Lu Yingxing's shoulder, listening to Gu Liu's report on the follow-up of yesterday. Zhao Fan would lead 17 secret guards from the palace, and disguise themselves as an expedition team with Molt and Qin Shibo to secretly go out of the border to search for people. The 30,000 Zhuocheng troops were also waiting for orders near the stone forest.
Mogu and Tara were arranged to live in the next yard and were guarded by special people.
Other expedition teams also returned one after another. Before Zhao Fan and his team came back, the union would no longer issue permits to leave the city. The official statement was that it was necessary to integrate the clues brought by the first group of people and divide the areas into safe zones, dangerous zones and unknown areas.
"Has the little wolf been released?" Shen Yu suddenly asked. The bitter taste in his mouth gradually dissipated, but Shen Yu still felt like a drug man when he spoke.
"Princess, Mo Gu released it last night." Gu Liu smiled as if he remembered something. "It's just as he said. The little wolf king named Ye Feng is very calm. After exploring the whole yard last night, he followed Mo Gu obediently today. Mo Gu seemed to be able to communicate with him. Not only did Ye Feng not bite people, he even stopped him from biting the chair legs with a command from him. The guards in charge were amazed."
Lu Yingxing knew the entire content of their conversation yesterday this morning, and naturally knew who Ye Feng was. He said with a smile, "Madam likes that wolf cub very much?"
"I think it's cute!" Shen Yuhe told the truth, but if I say that I thought it was a Husky at first, would you believe it?
As a modern person, her first reaction when she saw the small animal was that it was a dog, which was very normal. But after she learned that it was a wolf, she became more interested. It is a wolf, how cool it is to raise a wolf! !
"No!" Seeing the eagerness in his wife's eyes, Lu Yingxing hugged her with one hand and said helplessly, "Madam, it's too dangerous."
"I just want to take a look." So, it is not good for a couple to know each other too well, because some ideas will be strangled as soon as they are born.
……
However, five days later, they lost contact with Zhao Fan and his group.
Lu Yingxing frowned as he looked at the news from the secret guards, "Are you sure there are no signs of military action?"
"No, Your Majesty. Even the seventeen secret guards have disappeared without a trace."
The person who answered was Jin Yi. As the current commander of the secret guards of Prince Zhuo's mansion, he had a clear understanding of the level of his subordinates. Seventeen people could not possibly disappear out of thin air. Perhaps something happened to them.
"Wu Liu, have the 30,000 Zhuocheng troops arrived?" Shen Yu asked while writing and drawing.
Gu Liu nodded, "Stay on standby at the spot and confiscate any distress signals."
Several people came over and looked at the action trajectory and inferred data drawn by Shen Yu, and they all fell into deep thought unconsciously.
According to Molt, if they walked west from the Stone Forest for another day and a half, they would reach Tara's mother's tribe, which was also the end point of this mission.
Lu Yingxing planned to bring this group of people back first, because the place where Molt and his men lived was three days' journey further west. Although he didn't think the other party would dare to set any traps, it was always better to be cautious.
Moreover, the palace also needs to get more information from these people. Those people of the Yun family have been living outside the Great Wall, and they are no different from local tyrants. Since they choose to suddenly attack the people of Mohe, it means that they must have some plan.
Ordinary adventure teams are currently only allowed to go within thirty miles outside the Great Wall. The reason why Qin Shibo and his team were able to find Molt forty miles away was thanks to Zhao Fan.
Zhao Fan is a secret guard of Prince Zhuo's mansion, and since he came to Luocheng, he has been in the secret guard team protecting Shen Yu. He didn't learn anything else, but he did learn Shen Yu's unconventional character.
It was also under his encouragement that Qin Shibo dared to lead his men forward another ten miles, and finally found three people and a wolf in the stone forest.
Shen Yu pointed at the location of the stone forest and thought about it, silently calculating the time they would arrive...
