The concubine enters the palace? The princess empties the palace and goes into exile with the baby

"Zizhou, what did you say? The old man's body is missing?" Chen He was shocked and his face looked a little ugly.

Song Zizhou nodded, "Yes, I didn't find his body when I went up."

Song Qing frowned and said, "But we are nearby. If something really came, we would definitely find it. But the key is that we didn't see anything. How could it disappear out of nowhere?"

Song Zizhou said, "If you don't believe me, go up and take a look."

Song Qing didn't go up to see because he knew Song Zizhou would not lie.

But they really couldn't understand. The old man was dead and was just a corpse. Who could take him away?

As for the animals, the tree was so tall that they definitely couldn't climb up. Even if they did, Old Man Xu's body was so heavy that they definitely wouldn't be able to carry it down, and his body would definitely fall down.

If there was any movement, they would definitely hear it.

Song Qian asked, "Is it possible that the old man's body was carried away by a bird?"

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone suddenly realized the reason.

Song Qing said, "Indeed, if it was a bird, they would have carried away his body from the sky and we wouldn't have been able to detect it. But what kind of bird could carry away the body of an adult?"

Song Yao thought about it and realized that even the ferocious beasts in the Classic of Mountains and Seas could appear in this place, so there must be very large birds here, and such birds could definitely carry away a person.

Fortunately, they usually rode in carriages and slept in tents at night. Otherwise, if they were walking, they would easily encounter such birds.

They could even take away Old Man Xu’s body, let alone these living people.

In this world, not only are people's hearts evil, but even the beasts are eyeing people covetously.

It's really hard to survive.

Song Yao said, "In short, everyone should pay attention to safety from now on. If you see anything flying in the sky, you must hide quickly and never expose yourself in the wilderness."

E Yu said, "I thought there were only ferocious animals on the ground, but I didn't expect there were also ferocious animals in the sky."

"The world is in chaos now, and all kinds of animals will come out to eat people," Song Yao said, "so everyone must pay attention to safety in the future."

Song Zizhou didn't say anything because he was blaming himself for leaving Old Man Xu's body on the tree. If it weren't for him, Old Man Xu's body wouldn't have been taken away and would have ended up being mutilated.

He was such a good man, but it was all Song Zizhou's fault that he ended up in such a state.

Song Zizhou clenched his fists. He looked at Song Yao and said with a sullen face, "Ayao, I'll go find the old man's body."

Song Yao was stunned for a moment. She looked at Song Zizhou and frowned, "Brother, this place is so big, no one knows where that thing will take his body. If you go looking for it, it will be like looking for a needle in a haystack. It's better not to look for it. Even if you find it, it will no longer be a complete body. You will feel even more uncomfortable when you see it then."

Song Qing said: "I will go with my elder brother to look for him. His body was taken away, and I am also responsible."

He asked Song Zizhou to put Old Man Xu's body on the tree because he said he was afraid of meeting Zhu Huai again. If he had known about such danger in advance, he would not have let Song Zizhou do this.

This matter is not just Song Zizhou's responsibility, he is also responsible.

Song Yuanbai said, "The old man has helped us so much. He even solved the plague problem. Along the way, all the minor injuries and pains we had were solved by the old man. He is a good man and should not have ended up like this. So, I hope to find him back, even if he is killed and mutilated."

E Yu said, "I also hope to find his body, but the world is so big, no one knows where his body is now. Why don't we build a cenotaph for him?"

Chen He said, "How about this: when we get to Fengzhou, we'll build a tomb for him. Then we can pay our respects to him during festivals."

"That's it," Song Yao said, "and then we'll build him a cenotaph."

E Yu said: "Shall we set off now?"

"Yeah." Song Yao glanced at Song Zizhou, "Brother..."

Song Zizhou didn't say anything else. After all, they were right. The world was so big, and no one knew where Old Man Xu was now.

If you go looking for it, you will not only waste time, but you may not even find it.

"Let's build him a cenotaph when the time comes," Song Zizhou said. "Let's all set off."

Then everyone got on the carriage together.

After everyone got on the carriage, it slowly started moving.

After dark, they chose a flat ground to settle down.

There is a ditch on the left side of the camp, but there is not much water in it. Behind it is a vast wilderness, and the grass is almost as tall as a person.

If they settle down here, the lush, dry weeds can provide them with shelter from the wind.

After the camp was built, E Yu looked at Song Dongdong and Song Fanfan and threatened, "You two bastards, if you dare to run around again, I'll beat you to pieces."

They were in the woods before and almost couldn't come back. When they came back, they were beaten by E Yu again. Even if they were brave, they would definitely not dare to go out and play again.

After Song Yao handed the child to Song He and Feng Yingying, she went to the carriage that Old Man Xu had ridden in.

Although Old Man Xu had been in this carriage before, no one was afraid.

All of Old Man Xu's things were in the carriage.

Song Yao tidied his clothes and then found three books in his bag.

Judging from the names, they should be the three medical books that Old Man Xu mentioned at that time.

Song Yao opened it and took a look. It was easy to understand for her. There was even a prescription on it, but the quantity of medicine was not marked.

Song Yao did not continue her research. She put the book away and sorted out Old Man Xu's belongings.

She called Song Zizhou and took all of Old Man Xu's belongings outside to burn. In the end, only a piece of clothing and the three medical books were left.

Everything else, anything belonging to Old Man Xu, was burned.

When Song Yao saw that all the things belonging to Old Man Xu were burned in the fire, her eyes turned red.

She asked Old Man Xu to follow her. She thought that if he hadn't followed her, he would definitely not have been bitten, and if he hadn't been bitten, he wouldn't have died.

A tear rolled down the corner of her eye. She raised her hand and gently wiped away the tears on her face.

Song Zizhou glanced at her, gritted his teeth, and after a long while, he said, "Ayao, are you okay?"

Song Yao didn't look at him, but just said: "I was thinking, if he hadn't followed us, maybe he wouldn't have died."

"That's not necessarily true." Song Zizhou returned his gaze to the fire in front of him. "He's so old. All the people in the village had left, leaving him alone. Without food, he wouldn't have survived long."

Song Yao listened to Song Zizhou's words and was silent for a long time before she finally came to her senses. She clutched the medical book in her hand and said softly, "Old sir, don't worry. I will definitely keep your medical book safe. When I meet someone destined to be with me in the future, I will give your medical book to him. It can be regarded as a legacy of your will. Old sir, rest in peace."
