The female doctor was trying to save Su Xiaoyu but Bai Yuqiao had lost her usual ability and agility as she moved like the wind. She stood by the side at a loss as bean sized teardrops kept falling down and unknowingly, she had already cried till she was in a complete mess.
Not knowing how long had passed, the female doctor once again pulled Su Xiaoyu back from the brink of death.
Actually this round Su Xiaoyu was in an extremely dangerous situation but luckily she didn't resist like the previous few times but was much more obedient, otherwise she really wouldn't be able to be saved.
After ascertaining that Su Xiaoyu's life wasn't in any danger, the female doctor then looked towards Bai Yuqiao and was shocked to discover that Bai Yuqiao was in tears.
"Young Miss Bai, you …. what's wrong?" The female doctor asked timidly.
Bai Yuqiao seemed to have gone crazy as she grabbed the female doctor's collar and questioned, "Is she alright? I'm telling you, if anything happens to her, you can forget about living! "
The female doctor was scared and aggrieved, "Young Miss Bai, I …. I ….."
"How is she? Tell me! "Bai Yuqiao roared angrily.
"She, she's not, her life is no longer in danger but her illness is still very …. very serious and her body is also …. also very weak. She needs to be treated slowly, slowly ….. slowly nurtured. " The female doctor's voice was trembling. She had been in contact with Bai Yuqiao for so long but she had never seen Bai Yuqiao in such a state, as though she had lost her mind.
"Then why are you still in a daze for, hurry up and treat her!"
Bai Yuqiao pushed the female doctor aside as she looked left and right in a fluster, not daring to look at Su Xiaoyu.
After some time, she then said, "This, this …. this lass is very important, she must, must be treated well and nurtured well. Whatever medicinal herbs you need, just tell me. "
After Bai Yuqiao said that, she ran towards the door and it was until she saw a group of patrolling soldiers walking past the door when she abruptly stopped in her tracks and turned her back to them.
It was only then that she calmed down a little. She wiped away the tears on her face and carefully walked into the prison cell.
She did not disturb the female doctor. She stood in the dark and quietly watched the female doctor perform acupuncture on Su Xiaoyu.
She really wanted to walk over and take a closer look at the tattoo on Su Xiaoyu's back, but she didn't dare to.
She was brought back by her master from the City of Daughters. She didn't know who her parents were, but she had a younger sister. Other than this, her master didn't tell her anything else. However, she had long been secretly investigating this matter. She had searched through the entire Hundred Poisons Sect and the entire Great Central County before finally finding the granny who had raised her all those years ago.
It was a pity that the nanny didn't know much.
The granny said that she had a jade ruyi tattoo on her back, but it was incomplete, only half of it. The granny speculated that if she had a younger sister, then the other half of the jade ruyi tattoo should be on her younger sister's back.
That year, Bai Yanqing had asked the granny to casually give her a name. Because the granny saw the jade ruyi tattoo, she gave it the word "Yu". Because the granny's surname was Qiao, she gave her the name "Bai Yuqiao".
Just now, she saw a jade ruyi tattoo on Su Xiaoyu's back. It was only half of it, but it could be pieced together with the one on her back to form a complete jade ruyi.
When a person was young, the tattoo would change shape as they grew up. The jade ruyi tattoo on her back had already changed shape, but the shape could still be seen. And the tattoo on Su Xiaoyu's back had also changed shape. The degree of change was almost the same as the one on her back. This proved that the tattoo on Su Xiaoyu's back was also tattooed when she was young.
"Su Xiaoyu … Su Xiaoyu …"
Bai Yuqiao muttered to herself. Su Xiaoyu's name also had the word "Yu" in it. Who gave her this name? Was it also because of the tattoo on her back?
In Hundred Poisons Sect and this army, some of the elders who were familiar with her all called her Yu 'er. Han Yunxi and the others all called Su Xiaoyu Little Yu' er.
She was Big Yu 'er, and Su Xiaoyu was Little Yu' er?
Thinking of this, Bai Yuqiao couldn't control her tears from flowing out!
Behind her master's back, she had searched for her biological younger sister for so many years. Her only family in this world had actually been by her side for a long time! But she had been tortured by her for so long! She had been sick, injured, and had almost died on the rack several times.
Why was it like this?
Since she was young, she had always been clear-minded. She had long seen that her master didn't truly love her, and her senior brother didn't treat her with sincerity. She had lived alone in this world, and had never known what it felt like to have a family member.
Now that she had one, why did her heart ache so much? Why was she so afraid?
She was finally no longer lonely. She finally had someone she could hug, so shouldn't she be happy?
Why did her tears keep falling? Why did she want to wail so much?
Bai Yuqiao cried silently, silently wiping away her tears as she propped herself up and stood upright.
After the female physician finished the acupuncture, she wrote a prescription and waited for the servant girl to bring the decocted medicine over. She stayed by Su Xiaoyu's side until she regained consciousness and fed her a bowl of medicine.
After everything was settled, the female physician then walked towards Bai Yuqiao.
Seeing Bai Yuqiao's head lowered and her entire person dimmed, the female physician didn't dare to ask too much. She only said seriously, "Miss Bai, in another six hours, I'll come over again to take her pulse and feed her medicine. If she wakes up during this period, the servant girl will feed her some millet porridge. "
Bai Yuqiao lowered her head and didn't say a word. She only waved her hand to signal the female physician to leave.
After the female physician left, the large prison cell became empty and quiet. Only Su Xiaoyu's frail and petite body laid there quietly, giving off an unreal feeling.
Bai Yuqiao leaned against the wall and slowly slid down, kneeling on the ground. She buried her face in her hands and very quickly, her entire body started to tremble as she started to cry out. Gradually, the sound became louder and louder as it resounded in the dark and gloomy prison cell. It was extremely miserable.
Su Xiaoyu slowly opened her eyes. In actual fact, she wasn't unconscious after being fed the medicine. She was just too tired and didn't want to move. She was afraid that Bai Yuqiao would know that she wasn't unconscious and would come over to ask her what Ning Cheng had said to her.
Su Xiaoyu laid there and didn't dare to move. She looked at her surroundings and in her limited vision, she didn't see Bai Yuqiao who was in the dark. She didn't recognise that such a miserable cry belonged to Bai Yuqiao and she didn't expect Bai Yuqiao to cry in such a manner.
She was extremely curious. Just who was crying here? Did something happen?
In the end, she guessed that it was probably one of the maidservants who had been beaten and scolded by Bai Yuqiao and had been wronged.
Just like that, Su Xiaoyu slowly closed her eyes again and gradually fell asleep amidst the cries of her biological sister.
After Bai Yuqiao calmed down, he didn't walk over to see Su Xiaoyu. Instead, he resolutely turned around and left.
Based on her understanding of Jun Yi Xie, if Su Xiaoyu didn't tell him the whereabouts of the Perplexing Butterfly Illusion, Jun Yi Xie definitely wouldn't let her go. And once Su Xiaoyu revealed the whereabouts of the Perplexing Butterfly Illusion, she would die without a doubt.
Jun Yi Xie was currently busy working with Ning Cheng. No matter what, she had to save Su Xiaoyu before Jun Yi Xie had the time to think about Su Xiaoyu.
Jun Yi Xie was the man she had secretly loved for many years. She could give up everything for him, and she was willing to do it. However, she definitely wouldn't be soft-hearted about the matter of Su Xiaoyu, and she definitely wouldn't back down.
This matter could only be hidden in her heart. It was enough for her to keep it to herself. Once it was leaked, perhaps even she wouldn't be able to escape this calamity, let alone save her.
After exiting the prison, Bai Yuqiao instructed in a low voice, "Find two more sensible maidservants to serve her. That girl is an important hostage. If anything happens to her, be careful of your heads!"
The soldiers could naturally see that Bai Yuqiao was acting strangely, but they didn't dare to probe. They respectfully accepted the order and left. That night, Bai Yuqiao sent his trusted aide to continue investigating Su Xiaoyu's past.
Helian Zuixiang had said that Su Xiaoyu was a spy that Chu Tianyin had planted in the Duke of Qin's Manor. After being exposed, she had lost her memories. She wanted to know how Chu Tianyin had found Su Xiaoyu, and where Su Xiaoyu had grown up.
Jun Yi Xie indeed didn't have time to pay attention to Su Xiaoyu's matters. In the past, he would ask a few questions, but recently, he had almost completely forgotten about them. He was busy arranging for the thirty thousand warhorses to head south, and also busy urging the second batch of warhorses from Wintercrow Country to reach Tianhe City as soon as possible.
Although he had promised to support the Di Clan's thirty thousand warhorses, he wouldn't let go so easily. At this moment, he was secretly investigating with a few Beast Tamers from the Black Clan. These Beast Tamers were also the trainers of the thirty thousand warhorses. Not only would they escort the warhorses to the south, but they would also stay in the army to assist the Di Clan's cavalry.
Jun Yi Xie's warhorses were preparing to head south, but a group of people had already arrived at the outskirts of Tianhe City and would soon arrive at his army.
This group of people was Uncle Cheng and the others.
In the dead of night, Uncle Cheng's group settled down at a run-down temple in the outskirts of Tianhe City. Uncle Cheng and Jin Zizi both knew about what had happened at the Hundred Poisons Sect. Mu Ling 'er and Ning Jing only knew that Han Yunxi and Long Fei Ye had joined forces to attack the Hundred Poisons Sect, but they didn't know the results.
In fact, they could have gone to Jun Yi Xie's army to look for Ning Cheng today, but Uncle Cheng was still very cautious. They decided to wait for a few days and find out more about the situation in Tianhe City before taking action.
The carriage stopped outside the temple. Deacon Jin lit a fire in the temple to keep warm. Outside, the north wind whistled. Northern Li had already entered the cold season.
Ning Jing was wrapped in a large fox-fur robe. It kept her warm and also covered her slightly obvious belly. Some people's bellies were very obvious after two or three months of pregnancy. Some people's bellies only became obvious after five or six months. Fortunately, Ning Jing belonged to the latter. Coupled with her loose clothes, she really managed to hide it from everyone's eyes. At this time, she was kneeling on a shabby praying mat and praying to a broken Buddha statue.
Uncle Cheng sat on a pile of straw to the side. He looked at the fire, his eyes somewhat out of focus. No one knew what he was plotting in his heart.
Deacon Jin had just gone to hunt some game and cleaned it by a nearby stream. At this time, he was roasting it over the fire. Mu Ling 'er sat at the side and stared. The more she looked, the more hungry she became. She didn't even realize that Deacon Jin had been looking at her so many times.
After roasting it, Deacon Jin first handed her a roasted quail. Mu Ling 'er didn't even think about it and wanted to take it. Who knew that Deacon Jin would pass it to Uncle Cheng. He said to Mu Ling' er, "You can't eat this kind of thing."
Mu Ling 'er finally realized that she was a "pregnant woman". She rolled her eyes at Deacon Jin and got up to walk out of the door.
"Watch her!" Uncle Cheng immediately said.
Deacon Jin chased after her and saw that Mu Ling 'er hadn't gone far. She was sitting on the steps at the door. He hesitated for a moment, then walked over and sat down beside Mu Ling 'er.
