Adoption brings disaster

The most satisfying thing about wandering the world is to take revenge. After I dealt with the three guys who killed Qianxi, I felt very happy in my heart, and even walked a lot more lightly.

I took Liushui and the other two people and walked happily for a long way, listening to the wailing of the three people, only to discover a very serious problem, which was how to break the formation.

I looked at Liu Shui and asked unsurely, "You can break this formation, right?"

Liu Shui, who was originally in so much pain over Qianxi's death that his eyes were glazed over, looked away after hearing this. He didn't dare look at me and just said awkwardly, "Probably, probably, maybe. After all, it's been so many years, I've forgotten everything."

Liu Shui's words made my eyes go dark. I threw up my hands in frustration and complained, "Oh no, what should we do now? You insisted on being a good person. Now not only is Qianxi gone, but the three of us can't get out either. We're all going to die here. And you're happy now."

This matter was all Liushui's responsibility. Seeing me sarcastically mocking him, he didn't dare to argue. He just stood there very awkwardly, with his head lowered pitifully.

If Liushui hadn't been trying to stop him, I wouldn't have really killed those three people, but at least he wouldn't have been slandered for saving people, and in the end Qianxi fell into the deep valley, and now he's in such a tragic state that we don't even know if his body can be found.

I was furious when I thought of Qianxi's miserable state, and when I was angry, I wanted to give Liushui a good scolding. Just when I was about to open my mouth to criticize Liushui, the woman who had been following us said softly, "Principal, I can break this formation, but it will take some time."

Hearing this, I was delighted and quickly said, "My dear classmate, you have studied and practiced diligently for so many years, and now your skills have reached such a high level that you can even break this formation. You are really great."

"Principal, don't you remember my name?" The woman asked suspiciously when she saw that I always called her classmate.

Over the years, I have been busy with various things, and Li Er has always been in charge of these miscellaneous affairs of the school. I really don't know much about the affairs of the school.

But I really remember the child's name. How could I not remember a girl named Goudan?

If his master wasn't the Death Detective, I would have laughed out loud in front of everyone in the village when I heard this name.

But I couldn't laugh about this before, and I certainly couldn't talk about it now. I could only say awkwardly, "I really can't remember your name, but I know you're the apprentice of the Death Constable."

After hearing the first half of the sentence, the woman's eyes dimmed, but after hearing the second half, she became full of energy.

She also said happily: "Your Highness has a good memory. I am the apprentice of the Death Detective. At first everyone called me Goudan, but the master thought it was not nice, so he changed my name. Now I am called Qingyu."

"Qingyu is a nice name. I didn't expect that your master is not only good at investigating cases, but also has such a high talent in naming." I held it awkwardly.

Qingyu was naturally very happy to see that I thought this name was good. Although I didn't know why she was so happy, it didn't stop her from humming a tune while she took out a lot of things from her bag and placed them neatly on the ground.

Soon, there were ten wooden mice on the ground, a compass and some other things.

I was extremely curious about these things. Looking at the exquisitely crafted mice, I asked, "I've really opened my eyes today. I didn't expect these mechanisms could actually break the formation?"

Qingyu listened and smiled gently. He said nothing, but fiddled with the mice and arranged them in a row. Then he said, "This thing is not for breaking the formation. I don't know what's going on in this place. There are so many traps. If you are not careful, you will fall into them. This thing is used to dispel the traps to prevent the principal from getting hurt. That would be terrible."

This place is where Shuikushan teaches its disciples, so there are naturally many traps. However, this is the secret of Shuikushan, and I can't tell Qingyu. I can only ask, "How do you arrange it?"

"That's it." When Qingyu heard my question, his true energy also flowed. As Qingyu's true energy flowed, it was actually connected with the wooden mouse.

As Qingyu waved his fingers, Mu Haozi also ran forward quickly, and most of the places he passed by were cleaned up by Mu Haozi's true energy.

Wherever the rats pass, many traps are destroyed. Even those that are not destroyed are exposed to everyone's eyes, greatly improving safety.

This wood rat was extremely fast, even faster than Qianxi in setting traps. We followed the wood rat all the way forward and soon arrived at the location Qianxi said.

But today, because of the three junior sisters, we were delayed a little. Although we were fast, we still missed the time.

"I don't know how to calculate the time and direction. Now we can't get out at all." Liu Shui said in despair.

"Why can't you get out? Let me break this formation." Qingyu was about to show off in front of me, and now hearing Liushui's desperate expression, he was naturally full of confidence.

Liu Shui slumped on the ground helplessly and said, "You don't understand this formation. It's extremely large, with rings interlocking with each other. If the time and position don't match, it's a dead end, impossible to break."

Qingyu knew the whole story and was already unhappy with Liushui. After hearing Liushui's discouraging words, Qingyu became even more dissatisfied and said sarcastically, "You are incompetent, so you naturally can't break this formation. The principal doesn't have incompetent people like you under his command. Just wait and see how I break it."

Qingyu's confident look also gave me confidence, and I couldn't help but admire him: "I didn't expect that you have been following your master in the martial arts world for all these years, and you haven't fallen behind in your studies. You are even a master of formations."

"I know nothing about formations." Qingyu was a little embarrassed and said quickly, "But my master taught me a set of qi-reading techniques that can break all formations in the world, but it takes a little longer."

"There is such a miraculous skill in the world." I said in surprise.

"It's not really some kind of magical technique. The principle is very simple. Humans cultivate the energy of heaven, and the earth circulates the energy of the earth. Humans have meridians, and the earth also has them. We just need to find the meridians of the formation and cut them off, and the formation will naturally break."

This is easy to say, but not easy to do, not to mention that this energy is invisible and intangible.

Even the meridians are different in every formation, so finding them and severing them once you've found them are both challenges. Therefore, not everyone can master this unique technique that can break formations anywhere in the world.

The black carp entered the formation, lay on the ground to listen, then sniffed the trees, then looked left and right with a compass, confirmed the direction, and led us left and right in the formation.

I walked for a long time, but there was no sign of breaking through the formation. Not long after entering the formation, I made a mark. I have seen this mark three times, but I still can't find the way I came.

When we arrived at the marked location for the fourth time, it was already dark. Liu Shui said in despair, "We can't get out. This formation is trying to trap us to death."

I don't understand what Liu Shui meant when he said that the formation was trying to trap us to death, but I know that we need a backbone now. The backbone must not panic and must stabilize the situation, so that we can have a chance to get out.

"Qingyu has always been steady and confident. If she says she can break it, I believe she can." I said confidently, "Qingyu, take your time. Don't worry. I see a lot of food in this forest. At worst, we can find a place to rest, eat something, and continue tomorrow."

Seeing that I trusted her so much, Qingyu looked at me excitedly and said fiercely: "I must break this formation tonight. Principal, you can rest here. I will come to find you after I break this formation."

"You think I'm too old to walk?" I said jokingly, "Let me tell you, my martial arts skills are not inferior to yours. If you can walk, I can walk too, and even faster and more steadily than you."

My joke calmed the flustered Qingyu down, and he said playfully, "Of course I can't compare to the principal. The principal's martial arts skills are unmatched not only in our New Agricultural School, but also in the Escort Agency and the Poor Doctor's Clinic."

Of course no one can defeat me. Among the people from these few places, who dares to really fight with me?

I'm afraid that before he even started to do anything, he would be beaten by a group of people so badly that he wouldn't even recognize his own mother.

But there's no need to say this, I still enjoy being complimented.

After the herring finished her search, she began to search even more carefully. In order not to disturb her, we kept silent and just followed her quietly. When our stomachs growled and the moon was at its highest point, the herring danced with joy and said, "I found it."

We were naturally happy to hear this, and then we saw the black carp take out a claw from the bag and dug a big hole in no time.

Looking at the pit in front of me, I had only one thought in my mind: how else can this thing be used?

Just when I was surprised, Qingyu took out two more rats, disassembled them and assembled them into a big rat. Qingyu threw the big rat into the pit, and soon the big rat exploded in the pit.

Qingyu's face was filled with pride. He pulled us towards the periphery and said, "Principal, we have to hurry. This formation is very mysterious. I haven't really broken it, I just made it inoperable for a short period of time. We have to get out quickly, otherwise we will be trapped in the formation again."

After hearing this, Liushui and I rushed out with all our might. We were already very fast, and now we were determined enough to get out of the formation in a short time.

After leaving the formation, Qingyu asked, "A few classmates and I have set up a new agricultural school in a nearby village. The principal would like to visit and give us some guidance."

"Is there anyone else around here?" I asked.

"There are still seven or eight students, and the principal has something to arrange for us to do." Qingyu is smart and knows Qianxi's situation, so he said naturally.

"There are two urgent matters I need your attention," I said seriously. "One is to find someone to go to the inn at the dock and get our belongings. The second is that a friend of mine fell into a ravine in the woods. The water is fast flowing down there, and we don't know where he was washed away. Could you please find someone to ask? His leg was caught in a trap the other day, and he's wearing the same clothes as me, so it'll be easy to identify him."

"When the teacher is in trouble, the disciples should do the hard work. Principal, please don't complain. We have been so grateful to you for all these years, and this is what we should do." Qingyu said, "Principal, why don't you go to the academy and wait for news? If you have any news, please share it with us."

I was anxious, but I also knew that Qingyu was right, so I nodded and followed Qingyu to school.

When I arrived at the school, Qingyu served me a delicious bowl of egg noodles. Although I was sad, I couldn't stand the fatigue and fell into a deep sleep.

Early the next morning, Qingyu came to report that the person had been found, but he was seriously injured and might not be able to be sent to the school, so I had to go see him.

"Qianxi is still alive." I asked in shock.

After receiving a positive answer, I was ecstatic. I threw on my clothes hastily and flew out, saying, "Tell Liu Shui, I'll be leaving first."

Qingyu caught up and pointed to a small path, saying, "His Highness Liushui has already gone there. Principal, take this way. There's a shortcut."

The place where Qianxi was rescued was not far from the school. I went all out and took a shortcut, and I saw Qianxi in less than half an hour.

I looked at Qianxi, who was covered in wounds and wrapped up like a dumpling, and my nose felt sore that I almost cried, but I kept a straight face and scolded him, "Are you really that capable? You dared to rescue her? How come you didn't fall to your death?"

"Principal." Qingyu whispered behind him.

"What's wrong?" I asked doubtfully. "He doesn't even want to live anymore, so why can't I just scold him?"

"Brother Qianxi is seriously injured. I'm afraid he won't be able to hold on for a few more days." Qingyu kept his head down while speaking, not daring to look at me.

I rolled my eyes at Qingyu and said angrily, "I can't believe that in this vast world, no one can save a person who has fallen. Go find some famous doctors, and then have the escort agency use my jade token to invite the Imperial Hospital. Why are you so desperate for a mere fall?"

"Principal, the valley below is full of rubble. Brother Qianxi fell and injured his internal organs." Qingyu said in a voice as soft as a mosquito. "There is only one person in this world who can save Brother Qianxi's life, but that person hates people from the Central Plains with all his might."

This sounded so familiar. I couldn't figure out who it was, so I asked, "Who?"

Qingyu replied, "The Miaojiang Gu King."

After hearing this, I got angry and scolded Qianxi on the bed: "You are so arrogant and proud, but now you have fallen like this and you want me to beg my father and grandmother to save you. I tell you, I will deal with you after you get better. If I don't beat you to tears by then, I will bet I haven't eaten."

After saying that, I went out and met Liushui who came in a hurry. When Liushui saw me coming out, he pulled me and asked about Qianxi's situation.

I didn't want to pay attention to him at this moment, nor did I answer him. I just said with a cold face, "I will go to Miaojiang to ask the Gu King for help first. You bring Qianxi here slowly. There is a life-extending pill in the bag. If Qianxi is dying, you can give him one to keep him alive."

After saying that, I took the green fish and rushed towards Miaojiang. No more mentioning.

Predict what will happen in the future, and listen to the next decomposition.
