The Priest Hall was more heavily guarded than before, but Qi Ruoshui was not here. This was enough for Huangfu Chen.
He knew that someone would come to save Murong Ke, but before that, he had to deal with Wu Ming first.
In terms of martial arts, he was definitely not Wu Ming's opponent. Therefore, if he wanted to deal with Wu Ming, he couldn't fight him head-on.
Huangfu Chen first contacted Teng Ye. In order to save Murong Ke, they had to cooperate from the inside and outside.
However, he couldn't walk out of the Priest Hall now, and it was not easy to contact his own people. He had to think of a way.
"Mr. Huangfu."
Huangfu Chen heard someone calling him from behind. He looked back and saw that it was the maid of the Priest Hall. He looked at her indifferently, "What's the matter?"
The maid walked over and stood in front of Huangfu Chen. She lowered her voice and said, "Mr. Huangfu, I'm Hong Ying, the personal maid of the Empress."
Hong Ying's eyes darkened, but she still asked indifferently, "Why are you here?"
"I'm here to look for the Empress. Mr. Huangfu, has our Empress been rescued?" Hong Ying asked in a low voice. They had been asking around for a few days, but they hadn't heard any news about the Empress.
Huangfu Chen looked around indifferently, "Follow me."
Hong Ying followed behind Huangfu Chen with her head lowered. She only dared to look up at Huangfu Chen when they entered the room, "Mr. Huangfu …"
"When did you arrive in Xiliang?" Huangfu Chen asked in a low voice.
"We've been here for a few days. We wanted to sneak in to save the Empress during the chaos caused by Qian Luosha that day, but we couldn't find her." Hong Ying said.
Huangfu Chen said, "Your Empress has been taken away by Qian Luosha. She might have returned to the Jin Kingdom now."
Hong Ying's face lit up, "That's great."
"How many of you are here?" Huangfu Chen asked.
"Apart from me and Jianjia, the other secret guards didn't contact us if there was nothing urgent," Hong Ying said in a low voice.
Huangfu Chen looked outside, "Hong Ying, Murong Ke is now being kept in the dungeon by Qi Ruoshui. You have to find a way to contact Qian Luosha's Teng Ye and ask them to find a way to rescue Murong Ke. If they don't rescue him, he will become a Gu Man."
Hong Ying's eyes widened. "What?"
"Murong Ke was captured to save Yaoyao. If he is refined into a Gu Man, Yaoyao will definitely feel guilty for the rest of her life." Huangfu Chen said in a low voice, "No matter what, we must rescue Murong Ke within three days."
"These two have already sensed that there are others in the Priest Hall apart from us. Mister Huangfu, I believe those people are Qian Luosha's men. I will contact them." Hong Ying said in a low voice.
Huangfu Chen nodded, walked to the table at the side, and drew the terrain of the dungeon. "This is the terrain of the dungeon. Give these pills to Qian Luosha's people. After rescuing Murong Ke, ask them to find Yao Yao as soon as possible. Yao Yao will probably be able to save Murong Ke's gu poison later."
Hong Ying looked at him. "Mr. Huangfu, aren't you coming with us?"
"I have something else to do," Huang Fuchen said in a low voice. "I'll catch up with you guys after I'm done."
"Okay, Mr. Huangfu." Hong Ying did not suspect anything else and nodded.
However, Huangfu Chen knew that even if he left the Priest Hall, he would not look for Yao Yao. If it weren't for him, Yao Yao would not have been implicated by him. He had to kill Qi Ruoshui with his own hands. If Qi Ruoshui was allowed to stay in this world, she would cause more people to die. Qi Ruoshui came from Ox Village. If she did anything wrong, it would be his responsibility.
Hong Ying left Huangfu Chen's courtyard and met Wu Ming outside.
"What are you doing here?" Wu Ming saw that the maid looked unfamiliar, so he stopped her and questioned her.
"Lord Wu Ming, I'm here to deliver snacks to Mr. Huangfu. The Shaman King ordered me to deliver snacks to Mr. Huangfu twice a day." Hong Ying said calmly. She had been a maid in the Priest Hall for some time. Although she was not very familiar with him, she could still deal with Wu Ming.
Huangfu Chen opened the door and looked at Wu Ming indifferently. He said to Hong Ying, "You don't have to deliver snacks to me anymore."
Hong Ying responded, "This is the Shaman King's order."
"You can leave now." Wu Ming waved at Hong Ying and walked towards Huangfu Chen. "Mr. Huangfu, I heard that you went to visit Murong Ke again today!"
"Yes." Huangfu Chen admitted with a faint smile. "Lord Wu Ming, do I have to ask you where I go?"
"Mr. Huangfu, that's not what I meant." Wu Ming said, "It's just that I don't know what you gave Murong Ke to eat …"
He wanted to know why the Gu insects didn't dare to approach Murong Ke after Huangfu Chen visited him. Even he didn't dare to enter the Gu Insect Cave, but Huangfu Chen could come and go as he pleased. He wanted to know why.
"The Gu Worm Cave was raised by Qi Ruoshui. Do you not dare to go down?" Huangfu Chen asked with a faint smile.
"We don't have the abilities of the Shaman King," Wu Ming said.
Huangfu Chen said, "I can give you medicine to prevent the Gu worms, but I have to go to the Priest Hall to do something."
"Where do you want to go?" Wu Ming immediately asked warily.
"I've stayed here for a long time. Can't I go out for a walk?" Huangfu Chen asked.
Wu Ming nodded. "Where do you want to go? I'll send you there."
"Okay." Huangfu Chen nodded with a smile and took out a pill from his arms. "This is for you. I'll let you know when I want to go out."
Wu Ming took the pill from his hand and sniffed it. "Mr. Huangfu, you don't just want to go out for a walk."
Huangfu Chen smiled faintly. "I'm going to the palace."
"Let me know when you want to go," Wu Ming said. He glanced at Huangfu Chen and turned to leave.
Looking at Wu Ming's gradually disappearing figure, Huangfu Chen looked down at the black pill in his hand. The day he and Wu Ming went to the palace was the day Teng Ye and the others rescued Murong Ke.
Hong Ying took the topographic map that Huangfu Chen gave her and quietly came to the back door. There was only an old man who was cleaning the snow at the back door. She walked to his side and whispered a few words before handing the topographic map to him.
The old man hid the topographic map and nodded at Hong Ying.
"Be careful," Hong Ying said silently. She turned and left.
The old man continued to clean the snow until it was night time. He pushed the night scented cart out of the back door. As soon as he walked out of the alley, he was stopped by two people.
"Who are you?"
"You're Mr. Teng from Thousand Rakshasa, right?" The old man asked, but his voice sounded very young.
Teng Ye squinted his eyes slightly. He had already noticed that there was something wrong with the old man who was cleaning the night scented cart. He became even more vigilant when the other party guessed his identity directly.
"We're also planning to save Murong Ke," the old man said.
