Bringing love across time and space
Chapter 49: Dry Leaves
When Lin Qingya and Gu Yuchen fell into a sweet dream.
However, the tranquility at this moment did not spread to every corner of the entire exile team.
Liu Yuhan, however, was walking alone on the winding path at this moment, her heart filled with complexity and heaviness.
Suddenly, a few clear bird calls broke the tranquility of the night, echoing in Liu Yuhan's ears like a distant ancient tune.
She frowned slightly and looked in the direction of the sound, only to see a hazy woman standing under an ancient tree in the distance.
The woman was wearing a veil with her face covered, looking mysterious and deep.
Liu Yuhan approached cautiously, not daring to show any disrespect in her heart. She slowly knelt down and kowtowed three times respectfully, with a tremor in her voice:
"Master, I have followed your instructions and put the poisonous insect into Lin Qingya's body. I believe that within half a month, she will be completely controlled by the poisonous insect and become your puppet."
The woman called "Master" lowered her head slightly, her eyes flashing with a cold light under her veil.
She smiled softly, and that laughter seemed to carry some kind of magic that made people shudder.
"You did a great job." She said calmly, "After the matter is accomplished, I will naturally fulfill my promise and transfer your family back to Kyoto so that you can live a better life."
Before she finished her words, the woman's figure suddenly flashed and disappeared into the night like a ghost.
Liu Yuhan stared blankly in the direction she left, with a complex emotion surging in her heart.
She stood up, spat softly, and a trace of hatred flashed in her eyes.
She hated this woman to the core. If it weren't for her, how could she have fallen into this situation?
Every month, when the parasite attacked, the piercing pain was almost unbearable for her.
She once thought about dying, but every time the pain passed, she would rekindle her hope of living.
She lived like a dog, under the shadow of her master, who had to do things for her for the safety of her family.
However, when she thought that Lin Qingya would be even more miserable than herself, an inexplicable pleasure surged in her heart.
This kind of pleasure made her completely lose her mind, because she still had the right to pursue love, and she also loved the second prince deeply.
As the night deepened, Liu Yuhan stood alone under the moon, her figure looking lonely and forlorn.
She looked up at the starry sky, her heart filled with endless sorrow and helplessness.
She knew that she could no longer turn back and could only continue on this road full of darkness and pain.
And Lin Qingya, the person who was once like his enemy, has now become a chess piece in his hands.
Only at this moment did Liu Yuhan feel like a human being.
In this world full of conspiracy and betrayal, everyone is fighting for their own interests.
And Liu Yuhan is just a small pawn in this fight.
The next morning, the sunlight shone through the gaps in the tent, casting patches of light on the warm bed.
Lin Qingya was still clinging to Gu Yuchen like a kitten.
That sense of security and familiarity seemed to be her only support in this strange world.
However, as the morning light gradually dispelled the mist of the dream, Lin Qingya slowly opened her eyes.
What came into view was the scene of herself awkwardly hanging on Gu Yuchen again.
She couldn't help but frown in distress. Why was it always so disastrous every time she woke up?
Just when Lin Qingya was upset, Gu Yuchen seemed to sense her uneasiness.
He gently hugged Lin Qingya's waist from behind, and his low and magnetic voice rang in her ears: "It's still early, sleep a little longer."
His voice seemed to have magical power, bringing an indescribable sense of security to Lin Qingya's heart.
However, being held so tightly by Gu Yuchen, Lin Qingya's muscles tensed up involuntarily, and she didn't even dare to breathe deeply.
She could clearly feel the warmth and strength of Gu Yuchen's body. The strong masculine scent made her heart beat faster and her cheeks flushed slightly.
Gu Yuchen seemed to sense Lin Qingya's nervousness and discomfort. He loosened his arms slightly.
He lowered his head and whispered in Lin Qingya's ear: "Don't worry, I just want to hold you to sleep. If you don't agree, I won't do anything to you."
His voice was full of tenderness and pampering, which eased the tension in Lin Qingya's heart a little.
Despite this, Lin Qingya decided to break free from Gu Yuchen's embrace. She gently broke free from his hand, sat up and prepared to get out of bed.
She thought to herself: "It's strange that she can trust a man's words. She won't believe them easily." Although Gu Yuchen's promise made her feel a little warm, she still remained vigilant and cautious.
However, just as Lin Qingya was about to get out of bed, she suddenly remembered something.
She turned around and walked back to the bed, took out a pistol from the space and put it in Gu Yuchen's hand.
Gu Yuchen looked at the gun in his hand, and a hint of surprise and unexpectedness flashed in his eyes.
He quickly stood up and said to Lin Qingya, "Can I go to your space to practice shooting again?"
Lin Qingya looked at Gu Yuchen's excitement and felt helpless. She felt like she was looking for trouble and causing trouble for herself.
However, looking at Gu Yuchen's expectant eyes, she couldn't bear to refuse.
So, she shook her head and said, "Not now. Everyone will get up soon and they will definitely get suspicious if they can't find us."
After hearing what Lin Qingya said, Gu Yuchen was a little disappointed, but he also understood her concerns.
He nodded to show his understanding, then washed up with Lin Qingya and prepared to greet the new day.
After everyone got up, had breakfast, and got ready to set off, Liu Shun and others shouted loudly for everyone to gather and set off.
As we walked along the road, we discovered that the leaves were not as green as in previous years, but instead looked a little dry.
The Third Prince and his men also noticed this phenomenon, and he was worried about the lives of the people.
Lin Jingyuan didn't feel anything. He was a calm person. All he did in Xiaoyao Sect was practice martial arts and spar with the disciples.
He had never thought about what the disaster would bring! So he felt the least!
Gu Yuchen noticed this and shared his observations with everyone. Everyone agreed that this was a serious problem.
Considering that the next county town was still two days' journey away, no one had a better solution and could only put this issue aside for the time being and make plans after reaching the next county town.
On this busy morning, everyone was rushing on their way, only Chao Jiuli's grandmother, with the years deposited on her body, looked so calm and solemn.
At first, it was Chao Jiuli's eldest and second brothers who took on this important responsibility and carried her on their backs along the tortuous road.
When they were buying supplies, they just bought two carts. They changed to a simple cart.
Several children surrounded their grandmother, as if they were the warmth and comfort for her in her later years.
The sun was scorching the earth mercilessly, and they had been walking for two hours.
Although the old lady was sitting on a cart, her face was full of fatigue and she was breathing heavily.
Lin Qingya took out a handkerchief from her bag, soaked it lightly with water, and then gently applied it to the old lady's face, bringing a hint of coolness.
She carefully handed the old lady some water, her actions full of care and respect.
After the old lady drank the water, her frown gradually relaxed, as if she felt the love and care from her younger generation, and her mood became much more relaxed.
