Chapter 399 Startled him
"Yeah, it wasn't that piece of material, that's why someone almost plotted against her. Ling'er chose the most common path, but fortunately, she has my mother to protect her, otherwise there would be no bones left after being eaten. "
"Miss, you get excited when you mention her"
"It's angry,"
The two were talking, when the girl in the courtyard below looked up.
She knew that someone had helped her, otherwise she would have died by now.
"Thank you, lady and lord"
Qiao Mai nodded to her, "You're welcome, saving you once won't save you many times, so be careful in the future"
"yes,"
Yuan Jiaqi took Qiao Mai back to the house, "Since we have to leave tomorrow, let's go to bed early tonight, there are so many mosquitoes on Taihang Mountain, I will light some medicinal incense for you."
Before dawn, Qiao Mai left Taihang Mountain.
Yuan Jiaqi said goodbye to Qingfeng, and prepared to leave with four girls.
As soon as I got out of the guest hospital, I saw the girl who was rescued yesterday, guarding the gate with someone.
"Benefactor is above, be worshiped by the little girl"
Yuan Jiaqi dodged and explained, "It was my wife who saved you, she left beforehand."
"Then benefactor you?"
"I am not your benefactor,"
Yuan Jiaqi finished speaking with a cold face, turned around and walked down the mountain with the four little girls, and the woman was about to chase after her.
Unexpectedly, the four girls drew their weapons and were about to fight her.
"I said this girl, can't understand human speech? If you dare to step forward, don't blame the sword for having no eyes"
"I, I just want to thank benefactor"
"I think you are attracted to my master and want to take this opportunity to stick to my master?"
The girl blushed, "No,"
"roll!"
Xiao Yuhao scolded her rudely, then followed Yuan's family up and down the mountain.
Last night, the moment this girl looked up, she was fascinated by the tall and handsome Yuan Jiaqi under the moonlight.
When I saw her today, I fell in love even more.
Hearing that his wife was not there, he hid his joy in his heart. He didn't expect this man to be so unkind.
The master and servant settled the bill at the inn, and rode back home.
Unexpectedly, this girl was still waiting for them on the official road, but Xiao Yu was furious, she knew the master too well.
Seeing that she was about to greet the master again, she immediately said angrily.
"Say it again, my master didn't save you, if you miss my master again, there will be no good fruit to eat later"
The girl looked aggrieved, "Little girl, don't be angry, I'm just afraid of being assassinated again, and I want to go with you."
"Then where are you going?"
"South, south side"
"Sorry, we're going north"
"I also have relatives in the north, why don't we go together, when we get there, I will ask my relatives to send us guards and send us home"
At this moment, Yuan Jiaqi said, "Girl, please be respectful. Yuan already has a family and won't think about any woman. If she follows us, then my maid will have to do it."
The girl was tearful and looked pitiful, another man would definitely be tempted.
What a pity, it was Yuan Jiaqi who met.
In his words, he would have met his current wife in this life, otherwise, even if the woman stood naked in front of him, he would not have looked at her.
Qiao Mai once said that he must have been a monk in his previous life. He passed by the daughter country and met her. The two met her in this life to fulfill each other.
The girl in the carriage twisted her handbag angrily. With her appearance, why didn't the man look at her.
So he told the girl and mother-in-law to chase after the horse-woman.
But theirs was a carriage, and the members of Yuan's family rode horses, which was naturally much more than what she had written in the book, and they couldn't catch up in the end.
Qiao Mai rode a horse and traveled south all the way, looking at the map while walking.
The location of the Dark Temple is not difficult to find, all the way to the south, until there is no way, that is, the direction of the sea.
Then change to a waterway boat, and after sailing for five or six days, you can see the island. The Dark Temple is in the center of the island, on the highest mountain.
The entire palace is black. It is said that it is like the Nine Nether Hell. At night, it is completely dark, and the sky above the hall seems to be covered by black clouds.
Qiao Mai pouted, that place must have been set up with formations, otherwise how could it be like this all year round.
I just don’t know who was the one who put the crown prince’s Gu, and if she broke the Gu worm this time, whether that person was backlashed.
A few days later, she put the Dongzao into the space and stood in front of the vast sea, waiting for the ship.
When she was free, she would read a book, which was all about Gu worms.
The ones planted on the heart are called Heart-eating Gu, and there are also Soul-eating Gu, Concentric Gu, etc., which are nothing more than used to control others.
Compared with the world of cultivating immortals, the types of Gu insects in the lower world are much less.
At this time, in the dark temple, the dim lights reflected the figures of several people, one of whom was the temple master who was forbidden to backfire.
There are three other Lords, and one is lying on the ground, dying.
The palace master roared, "I told you all, let you come back, what are you doing in the Ming Dynasty? Is it not enough to suffer there? You really want to die!"
The three lords lowered their heads, not daring to make a sound. The hall master clutched his chest, so angry that he wanted to kick the man on the ground.
"Thinking that you are the only one who can do it yourself, you are the only one who is capable in the whole world. There are people beyond others, and there is a sky beyond the sky. Who can blame you? This is the lesson for you"
Hall Master stared at the man on the ground and took a few long breaths.
"Come here, carry him to the second floor, find a room to place him first, wait for the injury of the master of the hall to heal, and then treat him"
"Yes, Hall Master"
Several men in black carried the wounded away. The wounded was one of the four lords, and the one who Qiao Mai asked him to bring back the letter last time.
Unexpectedly, he did not return to the temple, but ran to the capital, trying to control the prince with Gu insects, but he stumbled.
He was unconscious and his most powerful assistant died.
If it weren't for the signal flare he fired into the air before he fell into a coma, he would have died by this time.
The master of the hall walked up and down on the high platform with his hands behind his back.
"Send people to strictly guard, and report any suspicious people immediately"
"Hall Master, I heard that Emperor Ming's Concubine Fu is very mysterious, and there are many beasts in the house?"
"Speaking halfway, seeing is believing"
"The spies sent out never return"
"This time things are tricky, maybe we will be in trouble."
"Should the subordinates disperse their staff?"
"We must disperse and let them lie down as civilians on the island. I will remember all of them. Be a man with your tail between your legs. The opponent is very strong. I, the palace master, have no idea if I am so strong."
Qiao Mai was standing at the bow of the boat, looking at the endless sea.
"Boater, how many days will it take to reach the Sansuan Islands?"
"Look at the weather, six days better, ten days slower."
She sat cross-legged on the spot, and then slowly closed her eyes. The boatman ignored her and shook her head.
Unexpectedly, she sat there for six days, no matter the wind, the sun or the sun, she remained motionless. The boatman thought she was starving to death, so they came over to have a look.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he got close, Qiao Mai opened his eyes, startling him.
"You, aren't you hungry?"
"It is common for people who practice martial arts to go hungry for ten and a half days"
"I, we grilled fish, do you want to eat?"
"How much is a piece?"
"A piece of ten taels of silver, about two catties"
"Let's have one, and a pot of rice wine"
"Rice wine for one tael and one pot"
After a while, the fish and wine were delivered, and she smelled them. Although the boatman sold them expensively, they didn't do anything wrong.
As she ate, there were faint shadows of the archipelago in the distance.
She ate a few mouthfuls, then raised her head, poured all the wine into her stomach, stood up, and looked at Xiaojima.
"Boatman, do you have the clothes of the islanders"
"Hey, no, there are people wearing anything, and people from the five countries,"
"Oh, is there a lot of people?"
“Not too many, the local people are all former foreigners, and after a long time, they become local.”
"Oh, that's good, so I don't have to worry about not understanding what they say."
