Oops, I've become the puppy apprentice of my stupid master.

Song Zhili asked: "Who did you say was injured just now?"

Hearing this, Lu Li couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

It was so scary, he thought it was some big deal.

"It was Senior Sister Lin. She went down the mountain yesterday to do a commission and was accidentally poisoned when she came back."

Song Zhili frowned and asked, "What kind of poison is it? Is it serious?"

"I don't know either. It looks pretty serious. Senior Sister Lin said she's going to be in seclusion for a while, so during this time, Lu Ming and I have to watch over the Sinner Platform."

"Okay, you go back first."

Now Lu Li and Liming left with a nervous heart, looking back every few steps.

(Wow, what is Lin Xi's situation now?)

— (Replying to the master, Lin Xi was poisoned by a Gu, and only the blood of the Gu mother can cure it, so even if she practices in seclusion, it will be of no use.)

(Will this poison kill people?)

— (No, the person who is poisoned will only be controlled by the person who poisoned him. Other than that, there will be no other effects.)

(But this alone is enough to affect me. Who knows what the person who poisoned me was thinking?)

(Do you know who the poisoner is and where he is?)

— (Sorry, this is not searchable, you can only take it one step at a time!)

(…rubbish.)

Fortunately, the poison in Lin Xizhong will not cause any harm to her.

No one could predict what would happen in the future, so there was no point in him thinking too much at this moment.

……

The day after the trial period ended, Chu Jinning left Yuhua Mountain directly without even saying goodbye.

I don’t know why the other party was in such a hurry to return to that boring palace.

Is he in a hurry to go back and inherit the throne?

Although he was full of confusion, fortunately he knew the answer half a month later.

After staying in Yuhua Mountain for some time, Song Zhili finally brought his master down the mountain.

Yu Qianlin followed behind him and asked, "Disciple, where are we going?"

Song Zhili said: "I'll take you to make money. When I make money, I'll buy you flowers, and a big bouquet of flowers."

“……”Is it okay not to?

Song Zhili followed the route given by the system and quickly found the woman who released the Kongming lantern.

This was a village very close to the capital. When they arrived, the woman was sitting on a small stool in the yard, sewing a scarf.

Seeing someone coming, she quickly stood up and put her things aside.

"Gentlemen, what are you doing..."

Without waiting for the other party to finish speaking, Song Zhili spoke directly: "Hello, young lady. My name is Song Zhili, and I am a wandering Taoist priest. This is my master, but he doesn't like to talk. You don't have to worry about him, just talk to me."

Yu Qianlin was wearing the red-faced yaksha mask on his face again, and with his white hair and black clothes, it was inevitable that he would scare the girl.

After noticing this problem, Song Zhili had no choice but to step forward and explain with a smile: "Don't be afraid, young lady. My master has a wound on his face, so he can only go out wearing a mask, but he is actually not scary at all."

The other party nodded doubtfully, "Master Song...what do you want to see me about?"

Song Zhili said, "I saw the Kongming lantern you released a few days ago, so I came to find you."

When Su Xiner heard this, her face was full of disbelief.

She never imagined that the prayer lantern she lit in despair would be discovered by others.

Unable to conceal her excitement, she said, "Master Song, can you...can you help me?"

Su Xiner's eyes instantly turned red. She felt that the man in white in front of her must be a god who had come down to earth to help her.

Even if it was just her wishful thinking, she hoped it was true.

Song Zhili patted the other person's shoulder and said, "Don't cry first, let's communicate properly first. Tell me about your situation."

Su Xiner nodded immediately and said, "Okay, Taoist Song, you guys take a seat first!"

After the three of them sat down, Su Xiner told them her story.

After listening carefully, Song Zhili instantly understood what the other party meant.

A year ago, the eldest prince was sent to the border to fight. When he returned triumphantly from the battle, he was ambushed by a traitor.

The eldest prince was poisoned and fled to this village, where he was unexpectedly rescued by Su Xiner.

The two gradually developed feelings for each other during the process, but the eldest prince could not stay here forever due to his status, so he had to reluctantly leave her and return to the palace.

It's just that the poison wound had not yet fully healed when the other party left, and not long after that, news came that the eldest prince was thrown into prison for colluding with the enemy country.

Su Xiner felt extremely desperate at the time, which is why she lit the Kongming lantern to pray for her lover to be with her forever.

"Master Song, can you please save His Highness? I believe he would never collude with the enemy. He is a good man..."

Su Xiner's face was already wet with tears. Even though Song Zhili had been wiping her tears with a handkerchief, he still couldn't stop her sadness.

"Miss Su, I'm just a Taoist priest, not a capable person. I dare not say that I can save the eldest prince, but I can at least let you see him again."

What he should find out most now is the situation of the eldest prince.

Song Zhili stood up and said, "Wait for our news here first."

Song Zhili and Yu Qianlin used instant transmission to directly come to the East Palace.

After seeing Chu Jinning, he covered the other person's mouth and then forcibly took the person to a corner where no one would come.

"Why are you here?"

Song Zhili smiled and said, "I don't mean to bother you. I just want to ask His Royal Highness the Crown Prince something."

Chu Jinning snorted coldly, "I knew you had guessed my identity early on. Now, what do you want to ask?"

"The eldest prince's matter."

"I do not know."

"If Your Highness didn't know, then why did you endure three months of training just to enter the Fantasy Beast Forest?"

Chu Jinning became interested when he heard this, and asked back, "You even know this?"

"I also know that you entered the Fantasy Beast Forest to find a magical herb to extend the life of the eldest prince."

The system only told him this much. The other party couldn't answer anything about the eldest prince.

If the system hadn't been so deceptive, he wouldn't have had to go through so much trouble to find Chu Jinning for information.

Chu Jinning said: "You are right, I went to Yuhua Mountain just to save my elder brother."

He glanced at the man in black behind him and couldn't help but frowned, "Why did you bring him here?"

Song Zhili smiled and said, "Of course I am bringing my master down the mountain to experience the good life, and by the way, I want to see what your East Palace looks like."

Seeing the other person's comfortable look, Chu Jinning couldn't help but ask: "Since you know my identity, aren't you afraid of me?"
