As the siblings were talking, a guard came over to report. Xiao Zeyu sat up straight and said with a dignified expression,
“Pa.s.s it over.”
Soon, the guard brought the artist of Tartan into the yurt. The artist held a portrait in his hand. After entering, he bowed and raised the portrait above his head with both hands.
After witnessing Su Qing and Xiao Zeyu’s G.o.dly bravery, the citizens and soldiers of Tartan revered Xiao Zeyu and Su Qing as G.o.ds. They worshipped the strong, and Su Qing and Xiao Zeyu were the strongest among the strong.
Xiao Zeyu ordered the guards to bring the portrait over. When he saw the woman in the portrait, Xiao Zeyu’s eyes became sharp, and he immediately decided to return to Mo City.
Xiao Ying was disheartened by Yeluchun and followed her brother back to Mo City. Just as she left, Yeluchun, who had been unconscious for many days, woke up.
His mother, Consort Li, saw that her son had woken up. She excitedly came over and held his hand.
“Who are you? What about me?”
Yelu Chun clutched his head and felt a sharp pain in his head. It was as if all his memories had been erased. He didn’t even recognize his mother.
“… Don’t you recognize Mother?”
Consort Li’s tears instantly flowed down. Her son was her life, and his actions made Consort Li’s heart ache.
“Mother?”
“Don’t disturb me. My head hurts.” Yeluchun closed his eyes.
The old Emperor did not want to see his son. Although he knew that he was poisoned, he was still furious at his actions. His anger had not subsided yet. Although the old Emperor did not go to see Yeluchun when he heard the news that his son had woken up, his heart was relieved.
There were cruel children but not cruel parents. In the end, they still missed their son.
“Emperor, after w.a.n.gye woke up, he couldn’t remember anything. He shouted that he had a headache.”
A guard ran over to report, and the old Emperor hurriedly ordered a doctor to go and check. He paced back and forth anxiously in the palace.
Tartan’s most famous imperial physicians all rushed to Yeluchun’s palace, but when they saw his condition, they were puzzled.
His Highness was stabbed in the chest; how could he have a headache?
Yeluchun hit his head against the wall in pain. A woman appeared in front of him and looked at him worriedly. Yeluchun felt that his headache had lessened. He reached out to hug the woman, but she turned around and left.
“Don’t go, don’t go!”
Yeluchun shouted at the woman, but the more he shouted, the faster the woman walked. In the end, she disappeared.
“What happened to my son?”
Consort Li saw her son’s hands grabbing at the air and shouting. She anxiously urged the imperial physician to treat Yeluchun.
If only Su Qing hadn’t left. She would be able to cure her son.
At this moment, Su Qing, whom Consort Li was talking about, had already reached the peak of Heaven Mountain. Those Hui clansmen were left halfway up the mountain by her, and even her shadow could not catch up.
Su Qing found the Tianshan Snow Lotus according to the location given by the system. The top of the mountain was covered in white snow, with few people. The place that humans had not polluted was like a fairyland. Other than a few small animal footprints on the snow, there were no human footprints, proving that the snow lotus had not been plucked.
Su Qmg searched for traces of snow lotuses in the snow. The sunlight shone on the snow, and Su Qing found the Tianshan Snow Lotus in the snow on the side of the mountain. It was crystal clear and spotless. It was the most beautiful and pure flower in the world.
A total of two snow lotuses bloomed in the snow like two lotuses. Tianshan snow lotuses could only be encountered by chance and not sought after. Only with fate could one wait until it bloomed. Su Qing plucked one of them and stored it in the system. She could use one to make medicine for Li’er.
Now that they had the snow lotus, they still lacked a Tai Sui, also known as the meat Ganoderma. Tai Sui was even more challenging to find than the Tianshan snow lotus. The ancient people were superst.i.tious and said it was what was said to be on the Tai Sui’s head.
After finding Xuelian, Su Qing immediately went down the mountain to look for Tai Sui. On the way down, she saw a few people who had returned. They were all shouting anxiously by a cliff.
Su Qing didn’t want to meddle in other people’s business and walked straight down the mountain. When these people saw Su Qing running over, they stopped her and started talking. Afraid that Su Qing wouldn’t understand, they pointed down the cliff.
Su Qing understood what they were saying. The tallest and most handsome man was their Prince. When he was climbing the mountain, he slipped and fell.
These people were his subordinates. Two of his subordinates wanted to go down to save the Prince, but they fell to their deaths. When these people saw the shoes Su Qing was wearing, they wanted to buy them from her so that they could wear them to save the Prince.
Su Qing watched as they chattered on and on, and she wanted to go over and take a look. The other party was a prince. The people of the Northern Borderline loved to fight and invade. Although they had yet to invade the Great Tang, they would still hara.s.s the border from time to time. If she saved him, she would be his savior and could guarantee a few years of peace.
This cliff was very steep for these Hui people. It was very slippery due to the snow and ice all year round. There was almost no place to stand on it. However, it was very easy for Su Qing. She wore special equipment and had the war G.o.d ability to walk on this cliff without any danger.
From where she was standing, she could see the situation below. A man was lying on a protruding rock with his head down. He was motionless, and it was impossible to tell if he was dead or alive.
There were also two people lying on the rocks further down. They should be the two subordinates they had mentioned who wanted to rescue him. These two people were not as lucky as their Prince. There was blood beside their heads. It was obvious that their heads had fallen first. They were going to die. After Su Qing saw this, she had an idea. She could save the Prince, but she also needed the help of the people above.
“You guys find a rock and tie this rope tightly. Wait for me to pull the rope from below, and you guys can pull it up.”
Su Qing spoke back to them. These people were very excited and did not expect her to understand their language. They begged and bowed to her, begging her to save the Prince.
After Su Qing had them tie the rope, she pulled it and slid it down. She slid very fast, and in the blink of an eye, she was halfway down. The people on top were shocked.
When Su Qing landed on the rock, she realized it wasn’t huge. There wasn’t much s.p.a.ce for a person to lie on it. Looking at the scratches on his clothes, he must have hit a protruding rock when he fell and slowed down. In the end, he landed on this rock. This Prince was lucky.
Su Qing turned him over and checked his pulse. If he was already dead, there was no need to put in so much effort to get him up.
Fortunately, the Prince’s pulse was strong. He was unconscious because he had been knocked unconscious, but his ribs and legs were all broken. He definitely could not climb up.
Su Qing tied the Prince with a rope. She did not tie it directly to his waist but tied it to his legs, just like how those people tied him up in the air. This way, he would not hit his head when pulled up.
However, Prince was unconscious and could not pull the rope alone. Su Qing tied both of his hands to the rope. The people on top of the rope were lying on the cliff and watching. They were waiting for her signal.
While Su Qing was rescuing the Prince, Xiao Zeyu was rushing back to Mo City with Xiao Ymg. Along the way, his expression was grave, afraid that something irreparable would happen if he returned too late..
