The great teacher examination had ended, and Mei Yazhi couldn't return to the Jixia Learning Palace for the time being. Without an alchemy lab, she wouldn't be able to concoct pills. Therefore, it was rare for Mei Yazhi to have some free time. She could look around for a while.
The only pity was that the second half of [Journey to the West] hadn't been published yet. As for the first half, Mei Yazhi had already read it thrice during her busy schedule and could recite it backwards.
"Why did Gandalf stop writing?"
Mei Yazhi felt very depressed. This should be the work of a great teacher in his spare time, right? He didn't take it to heart, but he didn't know that Sun Wukong's story had touched many people's hearts.
"What if I know who Gandalf is? I have to feed him five kilograms of croton and let him know the consequences of not updating! "
Mei Yazhi was bored to death. When she saw her daughter tending to the flowers and plants in the back garden, she couldn't help but feel angry. "There are a few scenic spots in Westmountain City that aren't bad. You can go and have some fun!"
"Mother!"
Mei Ziyu greeted.
"Go out and play, don't stay at home!"
Mei Yazhi urged, "If you feel that it's not safe to be alone, then call Sun Mo along."
"Mother!"
Mei Ziyu's face instantly turned red. Which girl would take the initiative to look for a guy?
Upon seeing her daughter's expression, Mei Yazhi knew what she was worried about. Hence, she reminded her unhappily, "You guys are all great teachers. If you guys seek guidance from each other, you'll be able to improve together!"
"Mother, you … didn't you not want me to walk with other men?"
Mei Ziyu mumbled. She remembered that her mother had broken the legs of a young man who was wooing her. One must know that the father of that young man was a 4-star great teacher, but she didn't give him any face at all.
"Can those people be compared to Sun Mo?"
Mei Yazhi was speechless.
Ever since his daughter got to know Sun Mo, not only had her health improved, but even her mood had improved a lot. The sorrowful look she had in the past was completely gone. She would occasionally smile, and even her appetite had increased.
Moreover, Sun Mo was so outstanding and handsome, and he was also very fond of him. If it wasn't for the fact that he had an engagement, he would really want to recruit Sun Mo and make him his son-in-law.
"…"
Mei Ziyu lowered her head. Actually, she also wanted to look for Sun Mo to chat and talk about plants. However, Sun Mo was too outstanding, causing her to feel very inferior.
Other than being the daughter of a 6-star master teacher, what other merits did she have? Especially when he was so sickly, anyone who saw him would be disgusted.
"Go. Don't think too much. A person's life is too short. If you can meet someone who can make you happy, then … just chat a little longer."
At the mention of this, Mei Yazhi felt a little sad. Zi Yu probably didn't have much longer to live. Was there still a need to care about the rules between men and women?
Every day that I can be happy is one day!
"Then …"
Mei Ziyu was still conflicted.
"Don't be so long-winded. Go."
Mei Yazi urged.
"Why... why don't we treat Sun Mo to a meal?"
Mei Ziyu still felt embarrassed to look for Sun Mo alone.
Mei Yazhi started. This idea wasn't bad, but with her around, Sun Mo would probably feel restrained, right? Oh, what should I wear?
"Then I'll go!"
Mei Ziyu was like a little sparrow, quickly running into her room to change her clothes.
"Ai, a grown girl can't be kept at home!"
Mei Yazhi sighed and decided to watch Journey to the West again. However, before she returned to her study, she heard a maid reporting that Sun Mo had come to visit.
"Invite him in!"
Mei Yazhi was in the living room and saw Sun Mo who had an anxious look on his face.
"Don't be anxious, speak slowly!"
Mei Yazhi was also a major character who had experienced many hardships. She directly came to Tantai Yutang's side and checked his body. After that, she took out an alchemy pill and fed it to him.
"His body is very bad. The injury this time around is due to him circulating his energy too much and it injured his heart and lungs. Don't worry, he won't die."
Mei Yazhi consoled.
"Teacher Mei, I'll have to trouble you this time around!"
Sun Mo's words were concise and comprehensive.
"Teacher Sun? Did something happen? "
Mei Ziyu rushed over after hearing the news.
"Ziyu!"
Sun Mo nodded as a greeting.
Hearing Sun Mo calling her name, Mei Ziyu blushed and lowered her head.
"It might be done by Dark Dawn!"
Mei Yazhi frowned. "I'll go to the Saint Gate's branch now and inform Liang Hongda to lock down Westmountain City. At the same time, I'll send out the law enforcement group to search for Ziyu and the others."
"Many thanks, Teacher Mei!"
Sun Mo clasped his fists.
"You're welcome!"
Mei Yazhi turned and left. "Ziyu, take good care of Tantai."
"Teacher Mei, I feel that we should start the search from outside the city. The enemy kidnapped Ziyu and the others, but they didn't deal with the aftermath and allowed those people who were knocked unconscious to lie in the shop. In that case, they would surely be discovered by other customers who entered the shop. At that time, when this was reported to the government, the entire city would be under martial law."
Tantai Yutang explained.
"I understand!"
Before the sickly invalid could finish speaking, Mei Yazhi interrupted him. A hint of praise flashed in her heart. This young man had a meticulous train of thought and was calm when encountering trouble. He was a good seedling.
Since the enemy wasn't friendly, it meant that they didn't plan on staying in the city to hide.
"Teacher Mei, I, Sun Mo, can afford both spirit stones and favors. As long as someone helps me find Ziyu and the others, I, Sun Mo, will follow his lead!"
Sun Mo spoke.
Discussing bargaining chips with Mei Yazhi might hurt their relationship, but Sun Mo couldn't help but say it. After all, when it came to seeking help, one had to pay some price.
Sun Mo was worried that Mei Yazhi's status wasn't high enough and would be slighted.
"Teacher Sun, your words are too serious. Don't worry, leave this matter to me!"
Mei Yazhi left. At the same time, she felt even more admiration for Sun Mo in her heart.
Sun Mo was definitely a good teacher.
Ding!
Favorable impression points from Mei Yazhi + 100. Friendly (500/1,000).
One must know that Sun Mo's fame was extremely great now. Leaving aside his two-time champion title and his strength as a spirit rune grandmaster, just his God Hands alone was enough to cause many major characters to flock to him.
Everyone didn't headhunt him because they either didn't have enough bargaining chips or they didn't know how much they should pay. After all, Sun Mo's value couldn't be measured.
If Sun Mo's words were to be spread out, Mei Yazhi believed that those major characters would personally move out to help him find Li Ziyu and the others.
"Drink some water!"
Mei Yazhi personally poured a cup of tea for Sun Mo. As for Li Ruolan, she could only receive the teacup that the maid passed to her.
"Thank you!"
Sun Mo received it and put it down. How would he have the mood to drink water now?
"Teacher, I've rested enough. Let's set off!"
Tantai Yutang sat up and looked through the window at the dark clouds that were starting to gather. "If it rains and the smell scatters, I won't be able to find Ziyu and the others."
"Your body?"
Sun Mo was worried.
"It's fine, I can persevere!"
Tantai Yutang stood up. "Teacher Mei's alchemy pills are very useful!"
Li Ruolan's lips twitched. Of course they were useful. Leaving aside the value of the alchemy pills Mei Yazhi had consumed, they would definitely be saint-tier.
(Do you think that Mei Yazhi's reputation as a quasi-ancestor-level ancestor is fake?)
However, Mei Yazhi truly admired Sun Mo. If not, she wouldn't have gone all out to help him without saying anything.
"Then I'll have to trouble you!"
Sun Mo looked at Mei Yazhi. "I wish to borrow a carriage!"
"Wait a moment!"
After Mei Yazhi spoke, she personally rushed out. "Uncle Yuan, prepare the carriage!"
...
The carriage sped along the marble pavement. The pedestrians on the streets dodged and cursed softly.
Luckily, it was starting to drizzle and there weren't many people on the streets. Otherwise, the carriage wouldn't be able to move at full speed and might as well run on the roofs.
Uncle Yuan drove the carriage to the bookstore where Li Ziyu and the other two had gone missing. After that, he followed Tantai Yutang's instructions and started to track them.
"The other party has long since planned this. After kidnapping them, they stuffed them into the carriage and headed straight for the western city gate!"
Tantai Yutang recalled the surrounding terrain of Westmountain City. "They should be going into the mountains!"
The sickly invalid was someone who planned ahead. Every time he went to a place, he would first understand the terrain or he wouldn't feel a sense of security.
"There doesn't seem to be any well-known buildings there, right? Does this mean that they have a stronghold in the depths of the mountains? "
Sun Mo was also recalling the terrain. He didn't have the sickly invalid's habit. Previously, when he found a map of Westmountain City to look at, it was purely a habit of modern people.
After all, when modern people wanted to travel far away, they would always open up their phones and look at the GPS.
"That's definitely the case. We should inform Teacher Mei to send people to seal the mountain. If not, if the target is alarmed, it would be hard to find them even if they had three heads and six arms."
Tantai Yutang was very anxious. The rain was getting heavier and the smell in the air was slowly dissipating.
"I can help after entering the mountain forest!"
Mei Ziyu recommended herself. She had this confidence.
Li Ruolan wanted to help, but there was nothing she could do. Moreover, when she saw Sun Mo and Tantai Yutang analyzing the problem and solving the predicament, she couldn't help but feel a little impressed. Hence, she secretly took out the image-recording stone and aimed it at Sun Mo.
At this moment, Sun Mo had already calmed down. His brain was operating at full speed as he listed out all the possible problems.
This included the identities of the enemies they encountered. How many people were there? The current situation of Li Ziqi and the others, as well as how to save them.
Sun Mo, who was putting his heart into thinking, had an enchanting charm. When they arrived over ten li away from the outskirts, the mountain path was difficult to walk on and they had to abandon the carriage, Li Ruolan felt even more impressed with Sun Mo.
The speed at which the two of them pursued was extremely fast. It was as though they were very familiar with the surrounding terrain. Hence, she couldn't hold it in and asked.
"There's no mistake, I've seen the map before!"
Sun Mo carried Tantai Yutang on his back and walked at the very front. He casually replied, "How is it?"
"Continue. They are either arrogant and feel that it's impossible for us to catch up so quickly or they want to move as fast as possible. Hence, they followed the mountain path and didn't enter the forest at the side!"
Tantai Yutang did his best to sniff the air.
Ever since Lu Zhiruo went missing, Tantai Yutang became more cautious. Every time he went on a long journey, he would sprinkle a type of medicinal powder that he personally concocted on a few of his fellow disciples.
This medicinal powder had a faint smell that wouldn't dissipate even after a long time. It could be used as a signpost to help him find his target.
Two hours later, the mountain path was long gone. Everyone could only traverse through the forest.
Li Ruolan was wearing a beautiful dress that was tight at the waist. She was in a very sorry state after being scratched by the tree branches and shrubs. However, Mei Ziyu was in an even worse state.
Her body was weak to begin with. After running for such a long time, the burden on her body was very great.
"Ziyu, stay here and rest!"
This was the fifth time Sun Mo tried to persuade her.
"I'm also a teacher. How can I remain indifferent when a student is in trouble? Don't say anymore! "
Mei Ziyu's tone was very resolute. Even if Sun Mo wasn't her friend, she would still act.
Another hour later, Tantai Yutang suddenly shushed them.
"The smell isn't spreading any further. Teacher, they are in the vicinity!"
Tantai Yutang reminded in a low voice.
Sun Mo's brows furrowed and he directly grabbed his wooden blade. (This daddy is going to start a massacre today. No one can stop me!)
