Shen Miao and Luo Tan returned to the initial thatched hut. Fennel and Star Anise stood under a locust tree and looked into the distance while Cong Yang and Mo Qing sat under the tree hugging their swords with their brows furrowed tightly.
Fennel suddenly said, "They are here!" Octagonal Aniseed hurried over and saw Luo Tan and Shen Miao following behind the strange Taoist priest. Luo Tan was still fine, but Shen Miao seemed to have tripped over somewhere. She was covered in mud and her hair was a mess. There was a strange smell coming from her.
Fennel and Star Anise looked at each other and had the same thought. Star Anise asked, "Furen, you are …"
Just as Luo Tan was about to speak, Shen Miao pulled her sleeves. When she looked up, Shen Miao shook her head at her and swallowed the words that were about to come out of her mouth.
Shen Miao said, "Let's go."
Priest Chi Yan said, "Since you are in a hurry, there is no need to take the path that you came from. Let me show you a shortcut. " He brought the few of them around and when they reached one side, there was an impressively endless farmland. In these crisscrossed farmland, there was a clearly visible path.
Ben Yue once said that the path that the siblings took had farmland and small paths. Now it coincided with the path in front of them. It seemed that the siblings did not take the path that Shen Miao and the rest came from but this path.
Chi Yan said, "You all follow this path straight ahead and you will be able to reach the exit." He then looked at Shen Miao and smiled, "This priest once told Furen that Furen will face a calamity."
Shen Miao looked at him calmly, "Priest is trying to say that the calamity is about to appear?"
"The calamity is born in response to Heaven's will and the mysteries of Heaven cannot be revealed." The priest smiled mysteriously, "However, not long later, this priest and Furen will meet again. At that time, one hope that Furen can be like last night and remove all the bugs on the red sleeve grass. At that time, the calamity will have a chance to be resolved. "
His words were neither Yin nor Yang and were unclear. The others were confused and Shen Miao also did not understand. However, there wasn't much for him to do here right now. If he didn't make a mistake, including the time when he left and the night he stayed here, today was already the sixth day. That Yuan Guiwan would at best last for ten days, moreover the old Imperial Physician said that Xie Jing Xing's poison had already started to spread and would be in danger in around seven days. There was no time to linger.
After saying goodbye to Chi Yan, Shen Miao and others walked on the path in the field. Just as Taoist Priest Scarlet Flame had said, the path was much easier than the one they had walked in the forest the day before.
When they were about to board the carriage, Fenxiang could not help but ask, "Furen, what did that priest make you do? What happened last night?" She looked at Shen Miao's sorry figure and could not believe that nothing happened.
Shen Miao said, "Nothing much, it is more important to return first." They were the first to board the carriage and saw that Shen Miao was unwilling to talk more. Even though Fenxiang and the rest were suspicious, they were helpless. In addition, Xie Jing Xing's injuries could not be delayed and they quickly rode back.
In the carriage, Luo Tan asked Shen Miao, "Biao Youngest Sister, why did you not say anything?" In Luo Tan's view, for Shen Miao to suffer so much because of Xie Jing Xing, it was touching no matter what. Even if it was a husband and wife from an ordinary family, they would be able to do this for each other. A young lady from a noble family was willing to kneel down to be a herb farmer and do it for an entire night. Not everyone would be able to do that. Shen Miao suffered but did not tell others and instead hid it. What benefits was there in doing that?
"Doing all these is not for others to show off." Shen Miao said, "Moreover if it were to spread out, it would damage the face of the residence of Prince Rui. This matter ends here and you must not tell others. "
