The Misty Cloud Creek was an ancient town in the region near the river, situated between two large mountains. The whole town took the river as its main street and the stream as its main road. Every household lived close to the water, requiring ships to travel between them. Because the water is filled with smoke clouds, hence the name of the Smoky Cloud Creek.
There were not many outsiders who came to this small town, so there was only the Nanshan Inn as the only inn in the entire town.
Gu Feiyan and Jun Jiuchen sat on the small wooden boat and slowly headed towards Nanshan Inn along the main river.
Previously, when he had gone back to the Shennong Valley, Gu Feiyan had been able to talk to Mang Zhong and his servants, but this time, Jun Jiuchen didn't bring any servants with him. Fortunately, they were all on horseback, travelling day and night at the same time, so there was not much chance for them to talk. Otherwise, based on Jun Jiuchen's silent personality, Gu Feiyan would probably suffocate to death.
As such, after being restrained for almost ten days on board the ship, Gu Feiyan couldn't help but start a conversation.
Of course, she didn't dare to disturb Jun Jiuchen. She also knew that it was useless to disturb him. She left Jun Jiuchen hanging by the bed and ran to the stern of the boat to find the boatman for a chat.
As they chatted, Gu Feiyan inadvertently looked towards the shore. Suddenly, she saw a familiar figure, somewhat similar to Baili Mingchuan. She quickly turned around to look carefully, but that person had already disappeared from the window.
It was impossible, thought Gu Feiyan, for that extravagant and extravagant Blossom Heart Fox to hide in such a remote place. She must have seen wrongly.
Gu Feiyan didn't feel relieved, so she continued to chat with the boatman. They talked about the small town and also talked about the Nanshan Inn.
After the bend of the river in front of them, they arrived at the Nanshan Inn.
The door of the inn was high up, and a flight of stone steps led into the water. Gu Feiyan and Jun Jiuchen climbed the stairs and arrived at the entrance, leaving behind the waiter who walked in with a smile on his face.
"Esteemed guests, it's already so late, do you two want to stay in the inn?"
"Looking for your shopkeeper."
When the shopkeeper heard the sound of voices, he hurriedly came out.
The shopkeeper was a middle-aged man with a solemn face and a mischievous smile. He sized up Gu Feiyan, then looked at Jun Jiuchen, and then invited them into the house.
He seemed to have guessed the purpose of Gu Feiyan's group's visit. As soon as he entered the room, he went straight to the point, "Did the two of you come specifically to find me?"
Gu Feiyan quickly handed over the recommendation letter. The shopkeeper looked at it seriously, but he was still serious. "Someone recommended by the old deacon of the Shen Nong Valley? Hehe, this is the first time I'm here! "The two of you should rest up for the night. Tomorrow morning, I will bring both of you into the mountain."
Gu Feiyan quickly asked, "How long will it take to enter the mountain?"
The shopkeeper picked his room key himself as he answered, "Even if you're anxious, it's useless. It's not only you guys who will enter the mountain tomorrow. There are also others.
The shopkeeper explained, "Hundreds of years ago, this place was the reclusive world of the Gu Clan. Later, an accident happened, and now, only Doctor Gu's branch remains in the Gu Clan."
Jun Jiuchen then asked, "Who else is going to enter the mountain tomorrow?"
"That is someone else's matter. You two don't have to worry about it."
The shopkeeper handed Jun Jiuchen two keys, instructing the waiter to serve them some food first. Then, he turned around and left.
Obviously, the shopkeeper wouldn't reveal anything if he continued to ask. After all, Gu Feiyan and Jun Jiuchen needed someone's help, so they did not speak up.
The shopkeeper's attitude was cold, but the waiter was very enthusiastic. Soon, he brought out fragrant and steaming hot dishes.
All along the way, Gu Feiyan had been eating dry rations and was looking forward to eating hot food. However, at this time, she was filled with worry and had no appetite at all. He originally thought that with the old deacon's recommendation letter, everything would go smoothly. How could he have known that such a situation would occur at this critical juncture?
What if that Doctor Gu were to be taken away tomorrow? There were only ten days left. Even if the old deacon was willing to recommend another hidden doctor to them, they might not make it in time!
Gu Feiyan was worried. She rested one hand on her chin while the other ate without stopping. She didn't notice that Jun Jiuchen was staring at her.
After a long while, Jun Jiuchen saw that Gu Feiyan hadn't eaten a single dish, so he offered her some. But after a moment of hesitation, he gave up and only coldly said, "Eat the dishes."
Only then did Gu Feiyan regain her senses. She whispered, "Thank you, Your Highness."
Jun Jiuchen didn't say much either, and soon found himself lost in thought again. A hint of displeasure flashed past his eyes. Without a word, he personally scooped a bowl and pushed it over.
However, Gu Feiyan didn't notice that Jun Jiuchen was getting more and more unhappy. Just as he was about to open his mouth, the laughter of a man and a woman suddenly came from outside his door.
Gu Feiyan only felt that this man's laughter was very familiar. She turned around and saw that the person who came was none other than the Blossom Heart Fox, Baili Mingchuan!
So it turned out that the person she had just seen on the boat was really him!
What was he doing?
Residence? Or …
Baili Mingchuan had one arm around the woman's shoulders and the other around her chin as he flirted with her. He hadn't noticed the people in the room yet.
Before Gu Feiyan could recover from her shock, Jun Jiuchen had already drawn his sword. As soon as Baili Mingchuan sensed the killing intent, he immediately looked over. When he saw Gu Feiyan and Jun Jiuchen, he was also stunned, obviously very surprised.
His gaze landed on Gu Feiyan's face, and his narrow and long phoenix eyes slowly narrowed. His entire person exuded an incomparably dangerous aura.
He smiled at all the women. Obviously, he was an exception to Gu Feiyan! The Yin Yang Poison from before was simply an unforgettable humiliation to him!
Jun Jiuchen raised his sword without a second word. Baili Mingchuan had no time to dodge as he pushed the woman in his arms towards Jun Jiuchen without the slightest hesitation. Jun Jiuchen took the opportunity to quickly grab Gu Feiyan as soon as he was out of the way.
Jun Jiuchen was naturally on guard. His longsword swept out, nearly injuring Baili Mingchuan's hand, but he was still able to avoid it.
Baili Mingchuan retreated far away.
Only then did he seriously look at Jun Jiuchen. He was clearly not as "friendly" to men as he was to women.
His eyes were high and cold, and his voice was haughty: "Jun Jiuchen, you medicine girl, this prince is going to make sure of you today!"
Jun Jiuchen didn't even bother replying to Baili Mingchuan. He raised his sword and pointed it straight at Baili Mingchuan as he coldly said to Gu Feiyan, "Come here."
For a moment, Gu Feiyan did not understand what he meant. She just stood there motionlessly.
Baili Mingchuan chuckled, "Little Yan, your master told you to come over yourself!"
Jun Jiuchen didn't make a sound, but extended his other hand towards her. Since he was going to deal with Baili Mingchuan, he naturally had to protect this woman first.
Gu Feiyan finally understood what he meant, and she hurried over without thinking too much. She wanted to hold Jun Jiuchen's hand, but the moment she touched it, Jun Jiuchen's hand would tighten into a fist.
Even in this situation, Gu Feiyan's heart was beating faster. She discovered that the Prince Jing's hands were slender and warm, while his fingers were cold. Being held by His Highness was actually similar to the feeling he had when he was holding the hand of the smelly ice cube. Gu Feiyan quickly rejected this idea. She thought to herself, 'Stinky Ice's stinky hand, how can it compare with the Jing King?' This was such an insult to the Marquis' Highness!
Jun Jiuchen gripped Gu Feiyan tightly and immediately launched an attack on Baili Mingchuan. Gu Feiyan had no time to think and followed closely behind him. She secretly prepared the poison in her hand as she thought to herself, "Last time I didn't poison this guy to death. This time, I'll let him have a taste of something even fiercer!"
