C247 The Gate of Heaven is right and wrong (2/2)
”Naturally. I'm afraid that someone has come looking for you because of this map. ” Mu Ru Yue replied calmly. After all, he had already guessed the gist of it from Nalan Ruo. It was impossible for people from the Heaven Gate to appear for no reason.
”Yes, because of the map in my hand. Back then, when I, this old man, narrowly escaped death, snatched this treasure map away, I had originally thought that I would one day be able to comprehend the secret within, but who would have thought that I was too stupid. ”
”Secret?” Mu Ru Yue was stunned.
”Yeah, it's said that on every treasure map, there will be clues about the next map.” However, the old man had never been able to find him. That was why he gave it to the princess. I thought this matter was completely out of touch with me. Unexpectedly … Those people came to find us and brought up the treasure map again. ” Having said this, Uncle Zhang began to cough again.
Mu Ru Yue frowned slightly as she waited for him to continue.
”Esteemed wangfei, you don't know what kind of place the Heaven Gate is? Right now, the so-called Gate of Heaven was actually just a bunch of evil people who did whatever they wanted. For the sake of the treasures of the past, they would risk everything.
This old man said that the treasure map has already been sent out. During this period of time, you must stay far away from the south side of the city. ”Otherwise …” As Uncle Zhang spoke, he spat out a mouthful of blood.
”Calm down. The poison in your body has yet to be treated. It's just that it has been relieved.” Mu Ru Yue sat on the bed with Uncle Zhang by her side. He frowned, ”Uncle, you're wrong.”
”Wrong?” Uncle Zhang was stunned.
”That's right, people from the Heaven Gate are not omnipotent. Moreover, it was not clear who these people were. I've met quite a few people who claimed to be from the Heaven Gate, but their ways of doing things and their temperament are completely different from others.
Therefore, I suspect that many people secretly used the name of the Gate of Heaven. As for the person who came to find you, I don't know who it was, but … There were many rumours that there were treasures hidden in the Peach Blossom Forest, and I had unraveled the secret of the Peach Blossom Forest. This is no secret.
Even now, no one has come to find me. This means that they still have some considerations for me. Since I have already become your master, I should be the one to vent my anger on you. Otherwise, if this master were to do it, wouldn't he be laughing? ”
As Mu Ru Yue spoke, a trace of darkness flashed past her eyes. He could barely suppress the rage in his heart.
There was no one who wouldn't be angry when an old man who was loyal to them turned out like this.
”Esteemed wangfei …” Uncle Zhang didn't expect that Mu Ru Yue wouldn't give up on him.
”Alright, you don't need to say anymore. These medicine are more than enough for you to stay alive for a period of time. During this time, I will prepare the antidote so that you will be fine. Moreover, the Southern District will have to rely on you in the future. ” Mu Ru Yue asked gently.
”Yes, even if this old man were to risk his life, he wouldn't let you down.” Old Uncle Zhang said excitedly. Once he got excited, he started coughing again.
”You have never let me down, so don't be too demanding on yourself. If anything happens in the future, you have to immediately inform me, not like this. If Ling Xi hadn't come to find me, I'm afraid that you would have already decided to go, right? ” Mu Ru Yue said helplessly in her heart.
Uncle Zhang was good at everything except for one thing … She always felt that this person had lived enough. Compared to when he was originally concerned about this place, Uncle Zhang seemed to have let it go.
”I, this old man, have struggled for so many years, and it's just that I can't let that little girl Ling Xi go. Now that the little girl is with you, this old man, if there's anything I can do for the imperial concubine, I'll just die.” Old Uncle Zhang sighed.
Indeed. Murong Yue sighed in her heart. She looked him deeply in the eye and said, ”But you've never thought about whether or not Miss Ling Xi would be willing to use your life to exchange for her own life.”
