The moon falling to the ground

Some of the other disciples were good at fighting, while others were just rookies who were obsessed with poison techniques. They were only good at poison techniques and were vulnerable in front of masters who had antidotes.

Fu Hu and Fu Lang opened the door of the wooden house and waited for the fog inside to clear before entering wearing masks and locking Wu Jiupo with an iron chain. The other end of the chain was locked to the door frame.

The various poisonous creatures in the room became very agitated due to the fog and rushed around in the bamboo cage.

Fu Wu brought a bucket of rapeseed oil and poured it on Wu Jiupo and every corner of the house. Fu Liu threw a torch into the wooden house.

Flames rose, and all sins were completely destroyed in the fire.

"Prince, Princess, I am guilty. Please punish me." Yuan Jiu knelt in front of the two of them with his head lowered.

Ji Yun looked at Jian Yue again.

Yuan Jiu is Jian Yue's man, and he won't be able to handle the situation well if he intervenes.

Jian Yue was silent for a moment, then said: "Yuan Jiu, you have followed me for several years. I believe in your loyalty, and I also believe that you are unable to control yourself because of the drug that has bewitched you. You can be spared the death penalty, but you cannot escape the punishment of life. Go and get ten lashes yourself, just as a lesson to learn."

"Yes, thank you, Princess. If I have any ill intentions in the future, let me be struck by lightning and die a miserable death." After Yuan Jiu made the oath, he went to help everywhere with tears in his eyes.

Ji Yunzhong shook his head: "You are still too soft-hearted."

"After all, he was implicated by me, so I am willing to give him a chance." Since he was bought back, Yuan Jiu has been an honest and hardworking man. He never cheats or speaks sweet words. For such a person, Jian Yue is willing to give him a chance to atone for his sins.

"Prince, Princess," Fu Yun ran over, "Yuan Jiu found a few medicine men in the warehouse at the back."

"Let's go over and take a look." said Jian Yue.

The last row of stone houses was where Guimen stored supplies and medicinal materials. However, in one of the larger stone houses, there were actually more than a dozen medicine men imprisoned.

These medicine men were old and young, the youngest was seven or eight years old, and the oldest looked older than Wu Jiupo. But Jian Yue knew that these people were not aging naturally, but had aging diseases caused by drugs.

These drugged people were tortured to the point of mental problems. Some had dull eyes, some had violent tempers, and were like wild beasts. Some were missing limbs.

Fu Yun and Yuan Jiu and Yuan Shi tied them up. Jian Yue examined them and shook her head.

These medicine men have been fed poison all year round, and their organs have already necrotized. They are beyond help.

"They are also poor people. Leave all the available supplies and food to them and let them live a few days of peace!" Jian Yue took out a bottle of pills. Although it can't save them, it can help them regain some of their sanity.

Yuanjiu and Yuanshi fed the pills to the druggist.

All the poisons in the ghost gate were destroyed. Some medicinal herbs that could cure diseases were packed up and taken away.

The fire burned for two hours. Fu Hu and Fu Lang personally watched Wu Jiupo being burned to ashes. Could it be that the fire could revive again?

There were not many disciples of Guimen, about thirty or so. Some were killed by Fu Hu and his men, and some were killed by each other. In short, no one escaped.

Wen Jiu was first countered by Jian Yue's mind-stirring powder and detoxified Ji Yunzhong and others. Later, he used the drug bullets given by Jian Yue to poison his master and his fellow disciples. Finally, he was counter-killed by his fellow disciples, poisoned, thrown into the fire and burned to ashes.

After dealing with the matter of Ghost Gate, it was already dark. It was too dangerous to cross the miasma forest at night, so Jian Yue and Ji Yunzhong decided to stay overnight and leave tomorrow morning.

Jian Yue and Fu Yun prepared dinner. Scallion pancakes, wild vegetable soup, and a big stew. Everyone was so hungry that they wolfed down the food.

After eating and drinking, Yuan Jiu and Yuan Shi rushed to clean up.

Jian Yue and Ji Yunzhong held hands and took a walk to help digest their food.

The waxing moon is very bright tonight. The autumn wind is bleak, and the insects are chirping, creating a cool atmosphere.

The two found a high ground in the mountains and it seemed that they were getting closer to the moon in the sky.

"Ayue, have you used up all the medicine you brought?" Ji Yunzhong suddenly asked.

Jian Yue patted her legs and said, "No." She smiled complacently, "Wu Jiupo and Wen Jiu would never have thought until they died that I would hide the antidote and poison on my legs and the silver needle under my armpit."

A qualified poison doctor must not only have superb poison skills, but also know how to hide poison. Poison can be hidden on clothes, hair, or accessories. This is the usual method of every poison doctor. But Jian Yue has a unique way. She took the inner membrane of animal fur, soaked it in a special potion and tanned it to make it flexible and waterproof. Then she spread some packaged life-saving antidotes and poisons evenly on the inner thighs, and covered them with this fur inner membrane. At first glance, it looks like human skin, and you can't find the mystery inside.

It is a silver needle hidden by Jian Yue, and it is also made of this kind of inner membrane and stuck under the armpit.

Ji Yunzhong also patted his thighs and armpits: "I haven't had time to use what I hid yet, but you got rid of it first. Oh! With my beloved concubine by my side, I feel so safe." He said in an exaggerated tone and put his head on Jian Yue's shoulder.

Jian Yue didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and sneered: "She just loves to play tricks."

Ji Yunzhong chuckled. He held Jian Yue in his arms and followed her gaze towards the sky.

A semicircular crescent moon hangs in the night sky, with a vast and boundless starry sky as its backdrop.

"The moon has risen!" Jian Yue suddenly exclaimed.

Once upon a time, the original owner was like the moon that fell to the ground, covered in mud, struggling humbly in hardship. Not only did she lose her original brilliance, she also exhausted all the light of life.

Fortunately, she came and changed her fate of falling, and let her life return to normal. No, she took the place of the original owner and overcame all obstacles, crawled out of the stinking quagmire, not only avenged her great hatred, but also soared to the sky, and finally became the bright moon with dazzling light and attention.

Ji Yunzhong tightly held Jian Yue's arm and said with emotion: "Yes, she has risen. She is holy and noble, untainted by dust. From now on, she will never fall again. She will always hang high in the sky that belongs to her, accepting the worship of the world."

"I will always protect her, love her deeply, and let her be happy forever."

Jian Yue was moved.

She turned her head slightly and faced his profile. His facial features were very soft, like the faint moonlight.

Her love with him was very plain, without any passionate emotions or romantic things. They just felt that they were suitable for each other, so they came together naturally. Before the wedding, they completely followed the customs of the era.

As for whether they would grow old together in the future, Jian Yue never thought about this question. The world is unpredictable, so let the future take its course. There is no need to worry about it.

Cherish the person in front of you, cherish the happiness in front of you. The most romantic thing in her life is to sit on the mountain and watch the moon with her beloved husband.
