Chapter 415: Longing for Xiang Liu
Chapter 415: Longing for Xiang Liu
It rains a lot in the summer. Xiaoyao and Jing take Xiaoxiao, Miao Pu, Jingye, Hu Ya and Zuo'er, a boy with missing ears who they accidentally rescued from the Colosseum, and head south on a wooden boat. They travel around the mountains and rivers, explore the mysteries, and slowly enter the territory of Haoling.
Tu Shan Jing had a good reputation in the past. He was known as the Young Master of Qingqiu. He was proficient in music, chess, calligraphy and painting, and was especially good at business dealings and social interactions.
He loves Xiaoyao, thinks what she thinks, and cares about what she thinks.
As they were getting closer and closer to the waters of Wushen Mountain, at Xiaoxiao's tactful reminder, Tu Shanjing made a prompt decision to change course and head north. He took "Jingye" and Hu Zhen on a small boat to Wushen Mountain to discuss business, and made an appointment to meet up with "Xiaoyao" and others in the East China Sea.
Not long after, the small boat carrying four people sailed into the Wushen Mountain area. Ruoshou came to greet them by boat. Jing took Jingye and Hu Zhen onto Ruoshou's big boat.
Ruoshou saw Xiaoyao taking off his mask, summoned his mount, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
About half an hour later, when the boat reached the foot of the mountain, Rushu had just returned.
"Your Majesty, please go up the mountain."
Although Xiaoyao looked calm, she was extremely nervous in her heart, and a little timid about returning home. With Jing's encouraging eyes, she boarded the cloud chariot.
When they arrived outside the palace, Jing asked Xiaoyao to wait outside and went into the palace alone.
Jing met King Haoling's gaze and expressed his speculation.
It turns out that King Hao Ling knew Xiao Yao's life experience from the beginning, and he and Xiling Heng used blood to seal the Rejuvenating Flower in Xiao Yao's body. Because of this, young Xiao Yao looked very similar to King Hao Ling.
Tu Shanjing sincerely begged King Haoling to tell Xiaoyao about her parents' past to help her lover resolve her problem.
King Hao Ling subconsciously rubbed the bone ring on his hand (Xiling Heng's severed finger), was silent for a long time, and made a decision.
"You go down the mountain and the boat will take you to Chishui." After saying that, he stood up, his figure was fleeting, and in a moment, he disappeared.
Jing looked at him in disbelief, he didn't expect that King Hao Ling would not even want to see Xiao Yao.
As soon as he walked out of the palace gate, Xiao Yao came up to him hurriedly, his eyes full of anticipation and curiosity.
Jing felt a little guilty and said sorry
"His Majesty asked us to go down the mountain and said the boat would take us to Chishui."
Xiao Yao was stunned. Even though the disappointment and sadness in her heart were about to overwhelm her, she pretended to be indifferent.
"I've already told you that no one in this land, from the king to the common people, welcomes me. Forget it, let's just leave!"
Xiaoyao walked very fast, Jing caught up with her, and Rushou followed at the end.
The three of them boarded the boat and headed northwest.
Xiaoyao was unwilling to obey, but Rushou insisted on taking the two of them and drifting towards the Chishui River.
Jing caringly comforted Xiaoyao and asked her to appreciate the beautiful scenery along the way.
Four days later, the originally lush green banks suddenly turned into a desert with no grass growing.
Xiaoyao suddenly remembered that she and Xuan had seen this desert when they first came to the Chishui Autumn Competition.
"Do you know why there is a desert here?"
Jing said, "It is rumored that there is a big monster living in it."
The boat did not dock or slow down, but Xiaoyao was grabbed by the wrist by King Haoling who suddenly appeared and flew towards the river bank. Jing hurriedly followed.
The three men landed, and the boat remained as it was, gradually going away and disappearing without a trace.
Xiao Yao was reluctant and refused to let King Hao Ling catch her, but she couldn't get rid of him.
King Hao Ling took Xiao Yao into the depths of the desert without saying a word. When Jing was about to catch up, he heard a voice.
"Miss Xiling!"
The three of them stopped and saw a caravan walking on the edge of the desert in the distance.
The magpie ordered everyone to wait where they were while he ran very fast.
"Miss Xiling, please stay."
