”Yue, don't you welcome me? Is it... ”Am I being rude?” Seeing that Mu Ru Yue was hesitating, the black uncle lowered his voice. He felt slightly disappointed.
Seeing her misunderstanding, Mu Ru Yue hastily replied, ”Of course not. If you still want to go when the time comes, I naturally welcome you.” At that time, I will accompany you to find that heartless man. ”
”Really?” The Black Martial Aunt was in high spirits.
Mu Ru Yue nodded with a smile.
On the side, White Mirrorjade only watched the two of them interacting with each other, disagreeing in his heart. He then looked outside the carriage.
The horse carriage headed towards the direction of the small village. However, they only followed the map because they hadn't seen a single family ever since they left the desert.
Along the way, besides the mountain, there were some thorny paths.
”Is that true?” After around four hours, White Mirrorjade, who had been looking outside the entire time, asked a bit speechlessly.
”The map was confirmed by you guys. If you want to follow the map, you should be right.” Mu Ru Yue asked.
”But on the way, there weren't even any houses.” White Mirrorjade frowned.
”There are no houses here. The stronghold is located in a remote area, and if we want to go to a place where we can live, I'm afraid we'll need to spend the night here. We'll probably have to stay in a carriage tonight.” The Black Martial Aunt said.
A carriage?
When the crowd heard that they were going to sleep in the carriage, they immediately felt the shadow. It had to be said that they had spent the night in the carriage and were brought to that strange village the next day.
Seeing that both Mu Ru Yue and White Mirrorjade had strange expressions, Black Martial Aunt was also embarrassed. ”Err …” There are very few people here, so it's very safe. Otherwise, how can I guard it for you? ”
”That won't be necessary, as long as it's safe. We can't afford to be late. ” Mu Ru Yue asked.
Hearing what she said, Black Martial Aunt felt a bit more apologetic. At the beginning, they only brought them back because they were the ones who cut off the bridge. They didn't expect so many things to happen later on. He even had to trouble them.
Thinking of this, Black Martial Aunt felt regret and also rejoiced. He regretted his rudeness back then. Wouldn't it have been better to invite people into the stronghold? But fortunately, he did not let them off.
Else, the stronghold would have been completely disintegrated by now, right?
No one was willing to wait for death. Although the people in the village were obedient and listened to her and the Great Elder, that was only because she and the Great Elder had ways to deal with them.
What also did not exist were the efforts of the ancestors in those years.
No matter what, Black Aunt could not forget what the Great Elder said to her two days ago. I can't forget it either … The ancestral hall that made her feel suppressed. That was the darkness of the entire stronghold, and it was also their insistence.
There were even many times when the Black Aunt could not help but wonder what exactly she was.
No one said anything along the way. The calmest among them had probably been silent all this time. Although he had very few words to say along the way.
Only towards Mu Ru Yue would he say a little more.
However, Mu Ru Yue, who was already used to being quiet, couldn't help but worry. It was as if her entire being had changed ever since she left for the south. There was no more relaxation.
The sky gradually darkened and the group was finally unable to see the piece of sand anymore. The surroundings also gradually became lively. Outside, the nightingale was chirping, and everyone was beginning to feel sleepy.
Chen Qing stood up and said to Mu Ru Yue, ”Royal Consort, let me go change Yun Er.”
”Alright.” Mu Ru Yue nodded. If she didn't want to go, then she would have to replace Yun Er with her. After all, Yun'er had been driving for a whole day and was probably exhausted.
Soon, Yun'er walked in, her face filled with exhaustion.
