The Demon Queen of Divine Doctor is not to be trifled with

Chapter 732: Let Me Be More Peaceful

Yun Xiao snorted coldly, "I never intended to apologize for you. Stay here and be your living Buddha! I don't care about the lives of these people. From the beginning to the end, I only care about the princess. So you see, maybe the princess doesn't need you at all, but needs a loyal guard like me. The Fourth Prince of Northern Qi, you are not worthy of her!"

After Yun Xiao finished speaking, he turned and left. Quan Qinghua kept thinking about his last words, "You don't deserve her." Thinking about it, she felt that she really didn't deserve Feng Zhaolian. She was the most favored princess of Guiyue, but he was the least favored prince of Beiqi. She could talk to Ye Wenyan and they had many common topics, but sometimes he couldn't even understand what she was saying.

The snowstorm picked up again, and the ground was soon covered with a thick layer. It was the first time that Quan Qinghua had ever seen such heavy snow in June. If he hadn't heard Emperor Zun and Ye Wenyan talk about the Wu'an Sea, he would have wondered if there was an injustice somewhere!

He stood up and walked towards the injured people, trying to gather everyone together, thinking that once everyone was together they could build a fire and warm themselves up.

But after they gathered together, they found that there was no way to make a fire. The fire was gone during the fight, and now it was snowing heavily and they couldn't even find dry firewood. Where could they get the fire from?

People were so cold that some even fainted. He had taken some pills with him when he left Lin'an, but unfortunately they all fell into the river and no one knew where they were washed away.

The river was frozen. Someone looked into the river and felt despair. He asked Quan Qinghua, "What happened? Snow in June is fine, but it's freezing. Is God punishing us again? He's not going to let us live?"

"Yes, they are going to freeze us to death! What mistakes have we made? Why is God unhappy?" Quan Qinghua couldn't tell why God was unhappy. The men in black were a man-made disaster, but the heavy snow was definitely a natural disaster. He had heard Ye Wenyan talk about the catastrophe of heaven and earth a few days ago, but he didn't say when the catastrophe would come. Could it be that it has already begun?

"Young man." Someone called him. It was an old man who looked to be in his 50s. He was lucky this time and was rescued early in the river and has survived until now. He asked Quan Qinghua, "Young man, do you know why our boat capsized? Was it the group of men in black who overturned it? Who are they? Why did they overturn our boat?"

Quan Qinghua was stunned for a moment and shook his head, "I don't know, maybe it's for money! After all, the boatman took three thousand taels of silver."

"I know that the three thousand taels of silver were given by you. We were able to board the boat because of your advantage. The boatman was also a profiteer. He was sure that you would leave, so the three thousand taels were not enough. He also asked us to board the boat and took our money. Now, we got a big loss for trying to gain a small advantage. Everyone on the boat died. But young man, I still can't figure it out. The three thousand taels of silver were given when we boarded the boat. How could these pirates know that the boatman had taken so much money? In addition, there were too many of them. I went ashore first and saw a sea of people in the water. There must be at least three or four hundred people, or even more. Do you think all these people are pirates? I have been using this waterway for many years, and I have never heard of so many pirates!"

Quan Qinghua shook his head, unable to answer him. He couldn't just tell the truth and tell people that those men in black were coming for them, and that the deaths and injuries of innocent people, and even the people who were rescued might not survive until the government rescued them, were all caused by them. Then these people would definitely eat him!

The only solution now was to take good care of these people first, and then go find Feng Zhaolian. Once he found them and knew who kidnapped them, he would come to seek revenge and take back all these innocent lives!

He stood up, took off a jade pendant he was carrying, and stuffed it into the arms of a three-year-old child.

The child was crying, and the mother couldn't comfort him no matter what she did. She was shivering from the cold and looked like she was dying. Fortunately, the child's cry was still loud, and it seemed that he was fine for the time being.

His jade pendant was in the shape of a fan, delicate and beautiful, and was originally intended to be given to the child to amuse him, distract him, and stop him from crying. But the child's mother thought it was a treat for her, so she grabbed it and stuffed it into her arms.

Quan Qinghua was stunned for a moment, but didn't say anything. These people were pitiful enough because of their involvement. He heard that the child's father died in the river. Even if he gave a jade pendant, it couldn't bring back a life. What else could he say?

There is a glacier in this desolate mountain and wilderness. I just hope that Tianya can go there and come back quickly, but don't wait until the government arrives and everyone is dead, because that would be a huge sin.

The accident happened ten miles away, deep in the mountains.

Shi Liyuan took Ye Wenyan into a cave. The black-clad man who was chasing them had long disappeared. The two of them rested and replayed the whole story. The more they thought about it, the more they felt something was wrong. Ye Wenyan had a wound on her leg. It was cut by a black-clad man with a knife when she was in the river. Shi Liyuan felt distressed, but he was helpless. He had to tear off his robe to bandage her temporarily. However, the robe was also wet and cold. After wrapping it, it relieved the bleeding, but it did not do much good to the wound.

He discussed with Ye Wenyan: "We still have to leave the mountain and get to the nearby town as quickly as possible to find a clinic to treat your injuries. Both you and I have no spiritual power left, so staying in a place like this is not a solution. Your legs are not convenient for walking, so I can carry you."

Ye Wenyan raised his hand to press his chest, temporarily suppressing his panic, and then said: "After this night, let's set off at dawn! My leg is fine, this minor injury won't delay my walking, not to mention that it's impossible to walk fast in this kind of weather. You are right, we have to reach the nearby town as soon as possible, even if it's not for treatment, we have to meet up with the Fourth Prince and the others. Once they get ashore, they will definitely go to the town. If something happened to the ship, the government officials should also go there to deal with the aftermath."

The more she thought about it, the more she felt suffocated. "I don't know who has plotted against us this time. Was it the boatman who asked for several thousand taels of silver? Or was it the assassin who knew the direction of our journey and had ambushed us in the water? But no matter who it is, the people on the boat can't all be bad. Too many people were implicated in this incident. I expected that someone would tamper with the boat, but I didn't expect them to overturn the entire boat. Master Liyuan, do you think this counts as us indirectly killing people?"

Shi Liyuan didn't say anything, so she asked again, "Does it count?"

He sighed, "What do you want me to say? It doesn't count? It really doesn't make sense. It counts? You will definitely be sad. Ah Yan, I have said before that no matter how a person lives his life, it is all arranged by fate. Just like there are twelve hours in a day, if you exceed these twelve hours, it will be the next day, there is no room for negotiation, and nothing can stop it.

It is the same with humans. If your destiny allows you to eat only 100 meals, then you will never be able to eat 101 meals.”

"You mean, those who died were destined to die? But if we didn't take this boat, they wouldn't die." "If they don't die on the boat, they will die off the boat. When it's time to die, fate will kill them in a thousand ways." He patted her shoulder, "We tried to stop them before they got on the boat, and said everything we should have said, but they insisted on getting on the boat despite all the dissuasion. In order to get on the boat, they even said that we spent three thousand taels of silver and it didn't count as booking the boat. Princess Guiyue said at the time that if anything happened, it would be their fate. So you see, it's really fate. They are determined to die, and we can't stop them."

"That's right." Ye Wenyan nodded and sighed, "I was also irritated by the group of men in black, and I didn't think about the problem through my brain. You are right, everything is destined. I am a spiritual cultivator, how can I not understand this. In fact, I lived a very clear life in my previous life. I don't know why I always think too much in this life."

She tried to stand up. Apart from some pain in her leg, her injury was not serious.

The heavy snow had piled up to the calf's knee. Although it was not enough to seal the cave entrance, who could predict how the weather would change? Maybe a hole would suddenly open up, and the snow would pour in and fill up the valley.

She turned around and called out, "Master Liyuan, why don't we leave now? The sooner we leave, the better. We can't make a fire in this cave and there's nothing to eat. We'll freeze to death if we stay there all night. We might as well hurry on and warm ourselves up."

Shi Liyuan thought about it and nodded, "Okay, whatever you say."

The two left the cave immediately. Their wet clothes were blown by the wind and snow, and the coldness penetrated their bones.

He asked her, "Can you bear it?"

She smiled and said, "I can bear it. Even if I don't have spiritual power, I still have internal power. It's no problem to hold on. Now I just want to get to the town as soon as possible and reunite with everyone. I also have to notify the authorities to rescue people by the river. The sooner we go, the more people can survive."

However, the idea is always good, but it is extremely difficult to walk on this mountain road. The two of them have been using their inner strength to resist the severe cold, and when they encounter a difficult mountain road, they have to use Qinggong to move forward. Gradually, their inner strength is almost exhausted. Without the support of inner strength, the speed will naturally slow down. The wound on Ye Wenyan's leg opened and began to bleed again. She carefully hid it at first so that Shi Liyuan would not see it. Unfortunately, although there was a heavy snowstorm tonight, the moon in the sky was particularly bright, and the snow was white. The strings of red flowers fell into the snow and were soon discovered by him.

Shi Liyuan felt indescribable discomfort in his heart. He took a step forward and lifted the little girl onto his back.

Ye Wenyan wanted to say that he could hold on a little longer, but he stopped her: "If you want to get to the city earlier, don't hold on. Don't think that the cold weather can freeze the wound. In fact, such weather is more likely to make the injury worse, and it will be more troublesome to deal with it. Ah Yan, please save me some worry!"
