Chapter 252.2: Cerulean Mountain (2/2)

Tang Doudou gave a heavy sigh. “Baili Yu, if we don’t find the antidote soon, you’re going to die! What will I do after you die? Could it be that I’ll have to just be a widow?”

Upon hearing this, Baili Yu slapped her butt as punishment. “Wife should get rid of this thought. How could this husband bear to die before enjoying a lifetime together with Wife?”

“Tch. But even now there’s still no way to cure this Hoarfrost Poison…” Tang Doudou propped up her head to look towards the distance. “Baili Yu, I’ll warn you now that if you die, I’m going to remarry right away. I’m going to marry several dozen men so that even when you’re down at the Yellow Springs, there’d be a mass of green as large as the prairie of Hulunbuir above your head!”

Baili Yu “What is the prairie of Hulunbuir?” (Hulunbuir is a prefecture-level city in Inner Mongolia)

“You’ve heard of getting a green hat, right?” Tang Doudou giggled. “Once you die, I’ll make you wear lots and lots of green hats until you’re so pissed you’ll crawl out from your grave! Aiy, just the thought of that scene is hilarious!”

“Wife has such a good heart!” Baili Yu gritted his teeth. From the looks of it, he really couldn’t die! Otherwise, if he really ended up getting some prairie of Hulunbuir due to this dumb woman, wouldn’t his illustrious reputation be completely ruined?

Tang Doudou grinned. “That’s why ah, it’s best if you don’t die.”

Baili Yu replied, “This husband will carefully obey Wife’s command and definitely will not die.”

Tang Doudou hugged his shoulder and chomped on him. “I’m being serious!”

“I’m not lying either.” Baili Yu shifted the person biting his shoulders to lean her against his chest. “Doudou…”

Tang Doudou now felt like crying.

She just hoped that they would be able to find a way to cure the Hoarfrost Poison on this island. Otherwise, Baili Yu would definitely die!

The events hadn’t even advanced, but she already had a bad premonition.

Baili Yu comforted his rather emotional little wife, then carried her and continued walking into the forest.

Beneath the rays of the moon, a black-clothed man’s figure flashed behind the two, and then he landed on the top of a distant tree.

He coldly watched the two gradually walk into the distance. Suddenly, he tugged off the black cloth around his face to reveal cold facial features. His black eyes had already become the blue of ice.

This person was precisely the person that had followed them the entire way, the person that not even Baili Yu had been able to shake off – Mu Ye.

After tugging off the cloth, he whistled towards the forest. It was a signal with three long tunes and two short ones.

A few moments later, an energetic gray monkey bounced out. When it saw Mu Ye, it cried out happily as it ran over.

It climbed up onto Mu Ye’s shoulder and rubbed against his face affectionately.

Mu Ye took out a bag of melon seeds and said expressionlessly, “Keep careful watch on the people that just passed by.”

The gray monkey took the seeds and bowed as it nodded. Then it jumped off his shoulders and started chasing after Tang Doudou and Baili Yu while looking back every few steps.

Mu Ye then took out several similar-looking antique lamps from the cloth bundle on his back. He picked one up and looked at it in the moonlight, but still couldn’t see any signs of what he was looking for. He placed the lamps back, then disappeared into the forest like an owl.
