Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Rong Zhan’s simple words put Gu Qingxue at ease, She felt relieved. Then, she felt a strong sense of fatigue sweep over her, making her eyelids feel extremely heavy.
Rong Zhan had been nervously observing Gu Qingxue’s condition. Seeing that she was about to fall asleep, he felt even more anxious. He gently stroked Gu Qingxue’s long hair and advised her gently, “You must be tired from the dream. Go to sleep first.”
There was still a long way to go from here to the maple forest. Even if Gu Qingxue forced herself to stay awake, she could not increase their speed. Since that was the case, they might as well speed up and leave this troublesome place.
Gu Qingxue’s anxious heart calmed down a lot. She looked up at the man whom she could rely on. In the end, she closed her eyes and fell into a deep sleep.
Watching Gu Qingxue fall asleep, Rong Zhan’s eyes were filled with sympathy. He lowered his head and kissed her forehead gently.
Gu Qingxue closed her eyes and fell asleep. The horse carriage hurried to the maple forest.
Time flew by, and the first rays of the morning sun appeared. In the maple forest in the suburbs, a carriage slowly entered the forest.
Gu Lin curiously lifted the curtain after the carriage entered the maple forest. He stuck his head out and saw that the maple trees in the forest were dazzling red. He could not help but be curious. “Grandmaster, why are the maple leaves here red?”
Winter quietly pa.s.sed, and now it was already the beginning of spring.
However, whether it was winter or spring, this should not be the season for maple leaves to turn red.
Gu Lin was not the only one who was curious. The rest of the children also looked at Master Wen Jiang curiously.
The smile on Grandmaster Wen Jiangs lips deepened as he slowly said, “That’s because there are Gu Worms everywhere in Southern Border. Maybe there are more Gu Worms here, and the poison on the Gu Worms makes the maple leaves here red all year round. In fact, this maple forest is a special scenery in the Southern Border. I brought you here today to broaden your horizons.’
When the children heard this, they looked around with more curiosity and excitement.
Lingbao quickly opened the curtains and looked at the sky. He couldn’t help but yawn. “Grandmaster, when can we see Uncle Fairy and mother?”
The remaining children were also most concerned about the spiritual treasure. They also looked at Master Wen Jiang, waiting for his answer.
Master Wen Jiang saw the antic.i.p.ation in his children’s eyes and the smile on his lips deepened. He reached out and gently patted Dumby’s head. “Counting the days, it should be soon.”
Dumby smiled happily and said excitedly, “When we see Uncle Fairy and
Mother, we can go back. At that time, with Uncle Fairy and Mother backing us up, I guarantee that the crown prince won’t dare to send people to a.s.sa.s.sinate us. ‘
“The crown prince is a bad person. Father will definitely not let him off easily.” Rong Han could not help but yawn as he spoke. It was not difficult to see how tired he was from his expression.
Looking at the sky outside the window that was just beginning to brighten, Master Wen Jiang softened his voice and advised them, “It’s still early. It’ll take us more than half a day to get through the forest. You guys go to sleep first. When we get out of the forest, we should reach a small town. We’ll stay in the town for a few days and see if we can contact Qingxue and the others.. ‘
