"What?" Xiao Que'er didn't hear Qingyingyi's murmur, "What did you just say? Missing children?" How could she not know that there were still missing children in the city.

Yingyi picked up the bone arrows, clutched a few of them in his hand, and walked towards Xiao Que'er, explaining, "No one in the capital had reported the missing child. The prince only learned about it by chance and asked us to investigate for several days, but there was no clue or evidence, and no trace of the missing child, so the matter was left unresolved."

"Why didn't I know about this? And why didn't anyone report it? Parents should be the most anxious when their children are missing. What parent in this world doesn't just ignore their child?"

Ying Yi scoffed, "Didn't we see it today? Have you forgotten why we came here?"

Xiao Que'er choked and rolled her eyes at Ying Yi: "You are the one who talks too much. Now that we are here, we must go up and take a look." Whether it was for the Sixth Prince or for the missing children.

"Well, of course I have to go up. I don't know who is playing tricks here." As he said that, Yingyi tightened the rope on his body and pressed Jinyou closer to the ground.

Yingyi was a rough man, and he hit Xiao Que'er without holding back, which made Xiao Que'er's forehead twitch.

"Hey! Be gentle, don't hurt the prince!"

"No, the prince has fainted and can't feel the pain for the time being." Ying Yi tightened the rope again until their chests were pressed against their backs without a single gap.

"you!"

"Shh, someone is coming."

Xiao Que'er immediately fell silent, holding the whip and looking towards the deep forest vigilantly.

Soon, a group of people wearing cloaks came out from the depths of Mang Mountain.

The leader wore a green robe, and the people behind him wore purple robes.

They covered their faces and wore hoods, so that their true appearance could not be seen.

Moreover, this group of people walked without making any sound. If it weren't for the rustling sound of their cloaks rubbing against the grass, there would be no trace of their movement.

Yingyi took the lead and stood in front of Xiaoqueer. Without saying a word, he pulled out his long sword and held it horizontally in front of him.

The moonlight reflected on the long sword, revealing Yingyi's murderous face.

Just as Ying Yi was about to move, a group of cloaked men suddenly stopped two feet away from the two of them.

The leading man in green robes spoke first: "We have no ill intentions. The leader admires your martial arts and would like to invite you two into the cave for a chat."

"Hmph! A cave? Only some reptiles who don't want to see the light would live in a place like this, right?"

Xiao Que'er thought that her words would anger the cloaked men, but she didn't expect that these people seemed to have no emotions and were not moved at all.

Even the man in green robe continued to make invitations.

"You two young friends are so skilled in martial arts at such a young age. Our sect needs talents like you. The leader has been keeping an eye on you for a long time. Seeing that you two have made it through the trials unscathed, I have sent me here to take you into the cave. I beg you to give me a little favor... But the leader's patience is limited, so please don't be ungrateful!"

At the end of his words, the green-robed man's voice suddenly became sinister, and the threat in his tone had become real, as if he was ready to fight if they disagreed.

Xiao Que'er and the other man looked at each other. Being a brave man, they would not suffer a loss in front of them, so they agreed to the invitation of the man in green robe without hesitation.

"Well, since the leader has invited us, we will certainly not refuse him. We will go with you to meet the leader later. I just wonder if you can reveal something so that we can prepare."

"The chief is a very good man, easygoing. You don't have to worry, just follow me."

The two looked at each other, understood each other tacitly, and could only improvise.

After such a test, the man in green robe was able to keep everything intact and no useful information was discovered.

The two had no choice but to follow the green-robed man to the cave he mentioned to meet the so-called leader.

"Since the two young friends have decided to go to the cave, you must follow the leader's rules."

"What rules?"

"Little girl, don't be so impatient. It's very rude to interrupt others when they are talking~"

The man in green robe raised his hand, and then Xiao Queer let out a scream.

"what!"

"Que'er! How are you?"

Xiao Que'er gritted her teeth to prevent herself from screaming. She shook her head, unable to utter a word.

It hurt, her whole body hurt, as if millions of ants were gnawing at her bones.

I don’t know what the man in green robe did, but he just raised his hand and made people suffer excruciating pain.

"What did you do to her?" Ying Yi supported Que'er and looked at the man in green robe as if he was looking at a dead person.

Ying Yi could see clearly that in terms of martial arts, the man in green robe did not show any signs of martial arts on his body, but his miraculous movements made Ying Yi dare not act rashly.

If it were just him and Xiao Que'er, they might have a chance of survival if they fought hard, but he was carrying the unconscious prince with him, so he was a little cautious.

"I didn't do anything to her. You were poisoned the moment you entered Mangshan, and I simply made the poison take effect sooner.

Oh, I forgot to tell you, only the leader can cure the poison in this mountain, so you should just follow me into the cave. Resistance... will only backfire!"

At this time, Xiao Que'er was in so much pain that she was about to lose consciousness, and she leaned on Ying Yi to avoid falling down.

But her face became paler and paler, beads of sweat the size of beans appeared on her forehead one after another, and her teeth bit her lips hard, causing a trace of blood to flow out.

Ying Yi had no reason to refuse, nor could he refuse. Xiao Que'er was not his subordinate, but a comrade who was closer than a subordinate. He could not bear to watch Xiao Que'er die of poisoning.

"Okay, I'll go with you! But you have to guarantee her life! If she loses her life along the way, I guarantee that none of you will survive!"

The man in green robe smiled, neither nodding nor shaking his head.

But Yingyi felt that Xiaoque'er's breathing had become smoother.

This demon! He really has a way!

"Okay, put it on and take the two of them into the mountains."

Then the two of them were covered from head to toe in an airtight cloak, and nothing could be seen.

I don’t know what material this cloak is made of. The moment it covered my head, I seemed to lose all perception of the outside world.

There was a faint smell of herbs in his nostrils, and Ying Yi suddenly realized that his martial arts seemed to be suppressed.

At this moment, he was afraid that if the man in green robe suddenly attacked him, he would not be able to fight back.

Thinking of this, Ying Yi was secretly shocked. He wondered who the leader was and how he could have so many strange and exotic things. He was afraid that he had bad intentions!

The journey was neither long nor short, but for the two people whose five senses were blocked, it seemed like a thousand years had passed.

At some point, the man in green robe stopped.

"Chief, the people are here!" It was the voice of the man in green robe.

"Let them out." It was a strange voice.

Then the cloak was lifted from the outside, and a strong light pierced Yingyi. Yingyi closed his eyes and took a deep breath, then gradually opened his eyes and looked up at the leader.

When I saw this, I was shocked.

It turns out that this person looks exactly like someone I know!
