C610 lake poison (2/2)

”What happened to Miss Black?” Mu Ru Yue looked at the shocked expression on Black Aunt's face and felt a little dumbfounded. Was this identity really necessary for Black Aunt to act like this?

”N-nothing. I just didn't think that esteemed wangfei would come to a place like this one.” The black clothed girl quickly suppressed the fear in her heart. She didn't want Mu Ru Yue to know how much she wanted to kill her.

”Whether it's an imperial concubine or someone else, everyone is human, right? ”Why can't I come?” Mu Ru Yue asked with a smile.

Black Martial Aunt felt the same way and nodded her head. ”You're right. Can I call you 'wangfei' in the future as well?” Black Martial Aunt's eyes lit up.

It was only then that Mu Ru Yue remembered that Aunt Black didn't even know her name. She just kept on calling her 'Miss', 'Miss'. He thought for a while and said, ”It's not convenient to call me 'wangfei' after we go south. My name is Murong Yue. You can just call me A'Yue.”

Mu Ru Yue replied.

”A'Yue?” Black Aunt was even happier as she looked at Mu Ru Yue, waiting for her reply. Mu Ru Yue nodded her head with a smile. She then called out again, ”A'Yue.”

Yun'er was almost frightened by Black Aunt's appearance.

”It's getting late, I should just go to sleep.” Mu Ru Yue was a little helpless toward Black Aunt's excitement. She also did not know what to do with this somewhat enthusiastic Holy Maiden.

”Yes, we still have a long way to go tomorrow.” Black Martial Aunt also suddenly remembered and fell asleep.

When a person was tired for an entire night, their sleep would always be exceptionally sweet.

”Esteemed wangfei, wake up. We need to hurry on our way.” Yun Er helplessly shook Mu Ru Yue, who was lying on the bed and didn't want to get up. On the side, the black aunt looked at the person who was in bed with a face full of shock.

He hadn't thought that even a wangfei would be bedridden.

”Princess!” Yun'er continued to sway about.

”Me, don't be noisy.” Mu Ru Yue sat up in a daze and looked at Yun Er and Aunt Black. She gradually regained her consciousness and yawned. ”What time is it?”

”Young Lord Bai and Young Master Chen Qing are ready to set off.” Yun'er could only reply in this manner. When he looked at Mu Ru Yue, there was a hidden bitterness in his eyes. When Mu Ru Yue heard that, she felt a little embarrassed and jumped off the bed. She put on her clothes and tied up her hair. At this moment, she had already changed into a man's attire, so as to not be inconvenient when heading south.

As the three of them left the room, they saw Chen Jing and White Mirrorjade standing not too far away in front of the lake.

”What's wrong with this lake?” Mu Ru Yue yawned as she asked. Just as he was about to step forwards and wash his face, he was pulled back by White Mirrorjade. ”This water is just like the water in the mountains.”

With that, Mu Ru Yue's drowsiness disappeared. She looked at the lake underneath White Mirrorjade's finger. The silver hairpin had long ago turned black, and gradually began to crack.

”This is?” Mu Ru Yue's entire body didn't look good.

”I came here to wash my face, but the hairpin accidentally dropped onto it. Luckily, the hairpin fell into it.” White Mirrorjade gloomily said. Mu Ru Yue looked down and shuddered.

He looked at Chen Jing and White Mirrorjade and said, ”Let's quickly leave this place.”

”People from our village often come here.” Black Martial Aunt hesitated.

Everyone thought for a moment before finding some suggested wood to carve the word 'poison' on it. Soon after, the black aunt drew another pattern on it. This was considered as giving up.
