When Huang Guizhi came in with the basin, Jin Xiaolou was peeling off the hair on Gao Lang's forehead, and placing a handkerchief on his forehead.

Jin Xiaolou was truly worried, she was an idiot, if she were to burn her brain again, she would not be able to take care of herself in the future …

The inside of the pot was warm water that had just been mixed, Huang Guizhi placed the pot beside Jin Xiaolou, and immediately looked, Gao Lang's face was burning red like a lamp wick.

"Lou, this isn't an option. If we keep burning like this, we'll lose our lives." Huang Guizhi was anxious, she received the handkerchief from Jin Xiaolou and casually washed it, then naturally helped Jin Xiaolou wipe the sweat off her face, "I heard that there are some spirit herbs that can cure a hundred illnesses in the forest, why don't I go and pick them for you!"

Jin Xiaolou immediately pulled her back: "Gui Qi, no need, all these spirit herbs are lies." I sent Uncle Sun to the town to buy medicine, so he should be back soon. "

Huang Guizhi wanted to say something, but in the end she decided not to, she looked at Gao Lang worriedly, and then looked at Jin Xiaolou with a pained expression. Hearing that the Madame Liu was hungry, she could only rush to the kitchen to cook.

Not long after Huang Guizhi left, Gao Lang suddenly sat up on the bed and shouted, "Mother!"

His eyes were completely red, and his usual tenderness was gone. All that was left was a sinister look on his face.

Seeing such a reaction, Jin Xiaolou was shocked.

But soon after, the ruthlessness dissipated, and a panicked and helpless expression appeared on his face.

"Father, quickly save mother. Lang'er, listen to me. Lang'er will never fight with third brother again …"

Without waiting for Jin Xiaolou to react, Gao Lang had turned soft and leaned on Jin Xiaolou's body.

Although Jin Xiaolou did not know what Gao Lang's shout meant, she could roughly hear that she had been wronged. Presumably, in this ancient compound, things like eating people and not spitting out their bones were happening everywhere.

She could only hit Gao Lang's back time and time again as if coaxing him to sleep.

"Mother, mother …" Hearing Gao Lang's raving, Jin Xiaolou's heart softened as she said gently, "Your wife is here, hurry and get up. Your wife will bring you to find your mother, okay?"

His head rubbed against Jin Xiaolou's hair, and his voice dropped to the level of a growling spring: "My wife, you finally admit that you're my wife, my mother is already gone, I only have you."

"That dead thing Huang Guizhi, where did she run off to?!"

When dusk fell, Jin Xiaolou had finished brewing the medicine Uncle Sun brought back from the town, and after blowing it carefully to cool it down, she drank it.

Just as he tucked Gao Lang in, he heard Madame Zhou cursing from the side of the courtyard.

Jin Xiaolou pushed the door open and looked out. The Jin Family woodshed was still quiet without any signs of smoke or fire, and she had thought to herself that it was only right to cook dinner.

Gui Zhi had always been obedient. She had always done the work assigned to her by Jin Family. Now that the sky was about to turn dark, where could she go?

When he thought of this, he suddenly remembered the rest of the conversation Gui Qi had in his ear.

He cursed in his heart. This silly girl, could she have gone into the forest to find some medicine for Gao Lang?

Jin Xiaolou looked at Mo Yun who was flying in the sky and took out a fire piston.

There were poisonous insects, snakes and ants everywhere in the mountain forest, so Jin Xiaolou was not afraid of him even though she had the experience of traversing mountains and ridges.

Jin Xiaolou walked very quickly, if Gui Zhi had left early, he would have been gone for a long time.

After entering the forest, the only thing left behind in the dim light of the dawn was a thick layer of inky black under the shadow of the trees.

Jin Xiaolou lit a torch, looking at the traces on the ground, she lowered her head and walked deeper into the forest.

After walking for an unknown amount of time, suddenly, his eyes lit up. At the end of the light from the torch, in the middle of a clump of green grass, was a cloth shoe embroidered with the lovers.

This pair of shoes belonged to Huang Guizhi. Not only did Jin Xiaolou recognise this pair of shoes, she also heard Gui Qi mention it before, that this pair of shoes was the dowry when she was married.

"Gui Zhi!" Jin Xiaolou shouted.

There was no response from the empty forest.

When she got closer, her heart sank to the bottom. Her face lost all color, and she almost lost her grip on the torch.

In front of the cloth shoe was a steep cliff. It was unknown just how high the cliff was, there was a waterfall in the middle of the cliff, and beyond it was a bottomless pitch black …
