Returning to the inn … Under the constant efforts and threats from the beauty Chu, they only managed to get one room, and ended up sharing one room with Murong Yan.

But unfortunately, after great difficulty, after being alone in one room, before his butt could even get warm, he was dragged by Murong Yan to the perimeters of the city to save a person by storm.

When he returned to the inn, it was already late in the night. The inn's main hall was quiet, with only a thin candlestick in his hand.

As the inn was sealed, there was not much business to be had. In addition to the rain and cold weather at night, the shopkeeper and the waiter had already rested for a while, so it was impossible for them to get another room for the waiter. Thus, Murong Yan could only bring Qu Ling to the room that they had booked earlier.

The three of them stood in the room, and suddenly Murong Yan regretted agreeing to only order a single room.

Qu Ling glanced at Murong Yan, then looked at Chu Yu, his gaze swept between the two of them twice, and asked: "Did I disturb the two of you?"

Without waiting for Murong Yan to speak, Chu Yu said in an aggrieved manner, "That's right, if it wasn't for you, we would already be in bed together … "Hey, stop, stop!"

Murong Yan expressionlessly took out his sword and waved it towards Chu Yu.

In the blink of an eye, the two of them started fighting within the room.

Qu Ling walked to the stove and squatted down, he recalled the events of the past few days and was lost in thought.

"Ah Ling, Ah Ling."

Qu Ling raised his head in a daze, and only then did he realize that both Murong Yan and Chu Yu had stopped their attacks at some point in time. They were standing in front of him with their heads lowered, looking down at him.

Without waiting for Qu Ling to speak, Murong Yan bent down and asked gently: "Is Ah Ling worrying about the General Xiao?"

Chu Yu also squatted down, and laughed: "I can't guarantee anything else, but you don't have to worry about the safety of General Xiao. For Xiao Jingyue to dare to infiltrate the enemy camp and set fire to the enemy's rear grain camp and obtain victory all by himself when he was just over ten years old, he must have been able to trample on the mountain bandits' old lair and occupy the mountain for ten years with his own strength. With that level of courage and ability, a mere governor's mansion is not enough to lock him up. "

If Xiao Jingyue wasn't so capable, how could Rong Xi and the rest wait for Xiao Jingyue to finish casting his parasite before going to assassinate him?

Qu Ling looked at Chu Yu, and suddenly thought of something, his entire body tensed up, his expression becoming extremely ugly, a pair of apologetic eyes looking all around, "Um, Chu Yu, I … No, Xiao Jingyue, he … "

Chu Yu and Murong Yan looked at each other and frowned, "What's wrong?"

Qu Ling did not dare to look at Chu Yu. He faltered for a while before forcing out a sentence: "Yesterday, we met Rong Xi."

Chu Yu's heart skipped a beat.

The person he sent to watch Rong Xi did not tell him that Rong Xi had also come to Tong Huai Palace.

He had already warned Rong Xi not to cause trouble for the time being, how …

Even though he knew that Rong Xi was the one who made the first move, when Qu Ling saw that Chu Yu's clothes were practically drenched, he still couldn't help but feel guilty and apologetic from the bottom of his heart.

Some things, some reasons, could never be explained.

Rong Xi wanted to kill Xiao Jingyue, wanted to kill her husband, but he showed mercy to her time and time again because of Chu Yu.

As for Chu Yu, let's not talk about whether he had fought against Xiao Jingyue before, but towards her, it could be considered as a favor.

However, these two people were blood-related brothers. Every time Rong Xi came out to seek death, she would have to put herself in a difficult position between saving him and not saving him.

This feeling was absolutely annoying.

Qu Ling was at a loss for a long time, but in the end, he still told Chu Yu about what happened in the cave.

including the matter of Xiao Jingyue crippling one of Rong Xi's arms.

After Chu Yu finished listening, he lowered his head without saying a word. No one could see the expression on his face.

Seeing that, Murong Yan secretly sighed.

With a complicated look in his eyes, he looked at Qu Ling who was squatting on the ground in guilt and worry, and turned to walk towards the door.

"Where to?" Chu Yu suddenly raised his head and grabbed Murong Yan.

Murong Yan gently brushed away Chu Yu's hands and said: "I don't think he has left Tong Huai Palace yet, I will go out and look for him."

However, Chu Yu said: "Right now, it's raining so heavily outside, there's no guarantee that the riverbank will collapse at any time. It's very dangerous for you to go out right now."

As the sound of his voice faded, a rumbling sound echoed out from the horizon.

Qu Ling thought of the river bank that had collapsed, stood up, walked to the window, opened it a crack, and looked out.

Lightning flashed outside, and thunder rumbled. Apart from a thick layer of water on the ground, the situation inside the city appeared to be fine.

Murong Yan and Chu Yu looked at each other for a while and in the end, they did not insist on going out.

The three of them sat around the charcoal stove. Due to Rong Xi's incident, the atmosphere was heavy and no one spoke a word for a while.

After who knows how long had passed, Murong Yan suddenly said to Qu Ling: "The security in the Residence is extremely tight, especially in the dungeon; it's already the limit for Chu Yu and I to bring you out; even my Big Sis I don't have the confidence to snatch her out. What happens next, will depend on General Xiao's ability. "

There had always been an invisible line between Murong Yan and him. No matter where Qu Ling was, as long as the distance between them was within a radius of five kilometers, Murong Yan would be able to easily find her.

Before going to save Qu Ling, Murong Yan had bribed a servant who was doing odd jobs in the kitchen. After finding out that the courtyard guard who imprisoned Qu Ling was not strict, he decided to take advantage of the night sky to sneak into the mansion, and successfully rescue Qu Ling.

As for the other people that were imprisoned, Murong Yan did not dare to be careless and did not have the thought of going to the prison to rob them.

Even if the people inside were his own sister.

However, Murong Yan knew that the governor would not kill them in the near future, so he was not in a hurry to save them.

Qu Ling nodded, indicating that he had heard it.

Then he was silent again.

When the sky was about to brighten, a faint sound came from downstairs.

Chu Yu stood up and said: "I'm going to look for the shopkeeper for a room."

Murong Yan looked at his figure for a long time before retracting her gaze. She asked in a low voice, "Have you researched how to remove the Gu?"

Qu Ling said honestly: "It's about time, I only need one person to give it a try."

Pausing, she asked, "Where did you get that Gu?"

Murong Yan was silent for a moment, then said: "I got it from my second aunt's senior brother."

Then, without waiting for Qu Ling to ask more, he explained in a concise manner: "My second aunt didn't know where she found out about this parasite. After she had 'cured' her own leg, she colluded with his senior brother and the people from the Miao Boundary and bought Gu Worm s from the people of Miao Boundary. I returned to the Murong Villa precisely for this matter. "

Earlier, when he heard his sister mention that Second Aunt's legs had suddenly recovered, he had his suspicions.

He had returned to the Murong Villa and investigated secretly for a few days, but still did not find any results, as though he did not hold any hope. Who would have thought that he would stumble upon Second Aunt's senior brother, and even capture many Gu Worm from his body.

But unfortunately, he was still able to flee.

He destroyed the Gu Worm, leaving behind only one person to send it to Qu Ling.

Afterwards, he informed Second Uncle about this matter. Unexpectedly, his grandfather, who came to find Second Uncle, heard about it.

Under his rage, his grandfather ordered for people to bring Second Aunt and also invited people to come and test for the Gu.

Finally, he confirmed that Second Aunt did indeed have a Gu in her body.

How could the Murong Villa allow such evil words? They immediately made the decision to divorce their second uncle.

After Second Aunt made a scene, she disappeared without a trace.

After he finished dealing with the matters at the villa, he heard that Qu Ling was at Tong Huai Palace and immediately left for Tong Huai Palace.

On the way, she met Chu Yu and brought him along with her.

When the sky was completely bright, the sound of the rain outside finally lessened.

Murong Yan warned Qu Ling to stay in his room and not to run around. Then, he led him out.

It would not be difficult to find Rong Xi.

Under the organisation, Chu Yu knew almost every town's contact point.

The two of them quickly found out where Rong Xi was and headed towards a clinic at the east side of the city.

When the silk-robed medicine boy by the side of the bed heard that Murong Yan had also come, he became nervous, "Young Master Rong, I …"

Before she could finish speaking, the door was suddenly pushed open.
