Chapter 507 Is Madam planning to wait for a rabbit to run into her trap?
Gu Qingyue rubbed her chin. She had been observing the tower at first, but then she noticed a few important words.
First: The prize for the treasure hunt is located deep in Meigu Mountain, about a two-day journey away. Go out from the north gate of Zhouxin Pagoda Courtyard and enter Meigu Mountain from the foot of the mountain. There is only one direction. As for which way to go after entering the mountain, there are clues, but you have to find them yourself.
Second: The most important rule in the treasure hunt is that there are no rules, life and death are up to fate, and you have to rely on yourself to win the treasure. Whether you can safely return to the Heart of the Continent Tower after obtaining the treasure depends entirely on your strength and luck.
Third: You have three and a half days to reach the Heart of the Continent Tower safely with the treasure before midnight on the day after tomorrow to win.
Fourth: Even if you don't get the treasure, as long as you participate, you can still receive a reward from the King of Nanzhao. As for what the reward will be, it was not mentioned.
Gu Qingyue carefully considered what the man had said. "What do you think? How about we come back the day after tomorrow and seize the treasure on the spot at the foot of the Zhouxin Tower? Wouldn't that be more convenient?"
Upon hearing this, Mu Yun Chu couldn't help but laugh, "Is Madam planning to wait for the rabbit to come to her?"
Gu Qingyue raised an eyebrow. "Is it not allowed?"
"Didn't you hear him say that all participants must go to a place called Jiming Ridge, and have a constable from the government office sign and affix his seal? And only those who have signed and affixed their seals can get the first clue?"
Gu Yuanen leaned closer and whispered.
Gu Qingyue stared blankly at Gu Yuanen. She hadn't been paying attention; she had been lost in thought for a moment.
Where is Jiming Ridge?
"Hey," he reached out and unfolded his fan for Gu Qingyue to see.
Gu Qingyue: !!! Come here, organizer, come out here and I promise I won't beat you up.
When she came in, she saw many people taking fans from a large table. She assumed it was a perk from the organizers for people to cool off, since the weather was indeed hot and humid.
She rolled her eyes at Gu Yuanen and the others who had brought her the fan, dismissing their pretentiousness!
So, actually, there was a map on their fan?
Gu Qingyue felt like she had almost missed out on hundreds of millions!
She immediately leaned over and examined the map carefully, and the others also gathered around.
Qin Fang's villa.
Nian Yuwei sat in the guest room, lost in thought.
She stared silently at a mimosa tree outside the window, her smile bitter.
She didn't know why, but the masked young master brought her here after just a few words.
Will I have a chance to meet him?
Does he still remember the woman named Nian Yuwei from nine years ago?
'Thump, thump------'
Suddenly, there was a knock on the door.
Nian Yuwei turned her head and saw a young boy standing outside her door, raising his hand to knock on the door frame.
"You are... a friend of the masked young master?"
Nian Yuwei had seen this child in the central hall of Shenxian Valley before. He looked young, but his eyes were bright and clear, and he was very spirited. She couldn't help but take a few glances at him last time.
I wonder what he's doing here now.
Xiao Nian nodded.
He stepped into the room, carrying two small porcelain bottles in his hands.
He saw her eyes the moment Nian Yuwei turned around, and she seemed to be sad and upset.
Was she thinking of her lost child? Or was it something else?
Upon hearing Nian Yuwei's question, he walked to the round table and put down the porcelain vases in his hand, one white and one blue.
"The white one is the medicine you requested. It has remarkable effects on internal injuries. This blue bottle... Young Master said you should take it immediately; it will be of great benefit to you."
"Benefits? Eat it now?" Nian Yuwei asked in surprise.
She had no intention of coming to Zhucheng to participate in the Heavenly Sacrifice; she had betrayed the Wizard Temple and the Holy Maiden, though they may not know it yet.
But she didn't want to encounter anyone from the Wizard's Temple here.
But the masked young master said that when they arrived in Zhucheng, he would find a way to heal her injuries and also... expel the Crimson Blood Gu.
She came.
In fact, she knew that the masked young master was definitely lying to her. Apart from the Holy Maiden's antidote, there was no way to cure the Crimson Blood Gu, even if the young master could find a very powerful doctor.
But she still came. She didn't want to admit it, but she had to admit it: deep down, she came here for that person!
The person who made her heart flutter and suffer heartbreak nine years ago.
She wanted to see it one more time!
Looking at the two small porcelain bottles, Nian Yuwei hesitated for only a moment before reaching out her hand.
Xiao Nian poured her a glass of water and placed it on the table.
"The young master said to eat the one from the white bottle first, then the one from the blue bottle."
After speaking, he quietly looked at Nian Yuwei.
Nian Yuwei picked up the cup and swallowed both kinds of medicine in a short while.
The next moment, a strong feeling of nausea welled up in her chest.
Black blood clots spurted directly from his mouth.
Xiao Nian watched without changing her expression as she painfully coughed up several mouthfuls of blood, then poured out another pill from the blue bottle.
"There's one left, and the young master said to eat it immediately."
Despite the pain and nausea in her chest, Nian Yuwei closed her eyes and took the food directly into her mouth.
The next instant, with a 'thud,' he collapsed to the ground, unconscious.
His lips twitched; he had forgotten what his sister had said: it was best to take the second pill while lying in bed.
Well, she's a bad person anyway, and my sister is already being lenient by giving her the antidote for the Crimson Blood Gu!
snort!
It took Xiao Nian a great deal of effort to help Nian Yuwei onto the bed.
Seeing the blood still on her lips and her pale face, he turned and left.
He had just reached the door when, for some reason, he stopped. He suddenly felt a pang of pity for her; she had lost her child and was estranged from her family…
Outside in the courtyard, Feng Shuyan leaned against the veranda and called out, "Is it ready yet?"
Hearing the sound, Xiao Nian snapped out of her daze, "Alright, let's go, Brother Feng!"
Gu Qingyue originally assigned this task to Feng Shuyan and Xiao Nian, but when Feng Shuyan arrived at the courtyard, he didn't want to come in, saying that he was afraid he would feel itchy to hit people if he saw those who were harming the children, so he let Xiao Nian come in alone.
Xiao Nian can manage to deliver the medicine herself.
It wasn't until long after the two had left that Nian Yuwei groggily woke up.
Zhouxin Pagoda Courtyard.
The time finally arrived, and Gu Qingyue and the others were eager to get started and make a big splash.
When the official from the Ministry of Rites gave the order: "Begin the treasure hunt!"
'Whoosh-----'
'Whoosh------'
Before Gu Qingyue could react, several people darted past her, and when she looked again, they had vanished.
Damn it...
Gu Qingyue was almost petrified!
Even rushing to be reincarnated wouldn't be this fast!
"Hehe-----" Seeing Gu Qingyue's stunned expression, Mu Yun Chu chuckled softly.
He came over and took Gu Qingyue's hand. "Let's go, let's hurry."
Gu Qingyue's lips twitched; she was making a big fuss over nothing.
Obtaining treasures brings immense benefits.
Especially with a promise from the King of Nanzhao, money, status, beautiful women and handsome men, even official positions... you might get them all at once. How could you not run fast?
