Chapter 753 Going to Kunlun Mountain

Tuoba Yu looked exhausted, her red and swollen eyes were full of sorrow, and she had been guarding Wan Henghua's body for a whole night.

The next day, she forced herself to prepare for the burial.

When she was dealing with Sang Yunlei's body, a trace of determination and disgust flashed in her eyes. She threw the body aside without hesitation, thinking to herself: "You, a hateful person, don't deserve a proper resettlement."

Tuoba Yu tried to make her expression look sad. She announced in a hoarse voice that Wan Henghua died of a sudden illness.

The villagers watched her busying around with the funeral, and they all talked about it.

A gray-haired old man stroked his beard and said: "This Tuoba Yu is really filial."

Tuoba Yu heard these compliments, but his heart was mixed.

While sorting out the funeral items, she silently said in her heart: "I have done the last thing I can do for him, but who can know the grievances and hatreds in this?"

Her face was just the right amount of sadness, and no one could see a flaw, but deep in her heart, she was sighing deeply for the complicated emotions of the past.

The funeral process was finally completed, and everything was settled.

That afternoon, the sun was a little dim, and Tuoba Yu stood in the center of the village, her figure seemed a little lonely.

She took a deep breath and said to the villagers in a calm but slightly sad tone: "I'm leaving this place."

She raised her head slightly, and her eyes swept across the familiar faces, "After all, I'm not Wan Henghua's biological daughter."

After hearing this, the villagers nodded in understanding.

An old lady came up, took her hand and asked, "Child, where are you going?"

Tuoba Yu shook her head gently, her eyes were full of confusion, she thought to herself: "This world is so big, but I don't know where my destination is."

Her expression was full of hesitation about the unknown, and she just said, "I don't know either."

After that, she turned around resolutely, put on a simple bag, and began to walk out of the village.

Every step was a farewell to the past. Her back gradually went away in the afterglow of the sunset, and gradually disappeared at the end of the road,

leaving only the villagers looking at the direction she left, sighing.

Tuoba Yu walked in despair, her eyes were empty and blank, her heart was in chaos, and she had no idea where to go.

Fortunately, she still had a little money on her, which made her not too desperate in this vast world.

Night gradually fell, and everything around was shrouded in darkness.

She mechanically walked on the road, and suddenly heard a sound of horse hooves.

She looked up and saw a young man riding a horse. However, the accident happened in an instant, and the young man suddenly fell off the horse.

Tuoba Yu widened her eyes in surprise, and her mouth opened involuntarily. She was panicked, thinking: "What should I do?" She hurriedly ran towards the young man.

When she approached and squatted down to check, she found that the young man had no breath and his body gradually became cold.

Her face turned pale, and she touched the young man's carotid artery with trembling hands to confirm that he was dead.

Her eyes were full of fear and helplessness, and she muttered to herself: "This... How could this happen?"

She looked around in panic, as if she hoped to find someone to help, but there was only endless darkness and silence around.

Tuoba Yu stood up and sighed helplessly. She thought to herself: "I don't know where to go, so how can I have the energy to care about other people's lives."

Her brows were furrowed, and her eyes were full of confusion and fatigue.

She was about to move forward when an idea suddenly flashed through her mind. Her eyes lit up and she said to herself, "Oh, isn't this horse ready?"

She had a conflicted look on her face and began to struggle in her heart: "I need a horse for my trip now, and the owner of this horse is dead. It's not too much for me to take the horse away, right? But isn't it a bad idea to do so..."

She bit her lip and hesitated for a while.

In the end, the instinct for survival and the desire for the future prevailed.

She walked quickly to the side of the horse, reached out and touched the horse's mane, and whispered, "Horse, horse, your owner is gone, just follow me."

There was a hint of guilt in her eyes, but more of an expectation that she could go further with the horse.

Tuoba Yu turned over lightly and rode on the horse, holding the reins tightly with both hands.

When the horse started to move, she was surprised to find that she seemed to be particularly good at riding a horse, and her body could move up and down with the horse's pace freely.

The horse was not shy, and carried her docilely and steadily forward.

Tuoba Yu's face bloomed with a bright smile, and her heart was full of joy. She thought: "God really helps me. I didn't expect that I would have such a talent for riding a horse, and this horse is so human."

She patted the horse's neck excitedly and said loudly: "Horse, let's go together."

Her eyes were sparkling, full of expectations for the future journey. On the horse's back, she seemed to have found new hope and courage, and the confusion and hesitation before were temporarily dispelled by this joy.

In the Taoist temple in Kunlun Mountain, Taoist Qingfeng and Taoist Mingyue sat opposite each other.

There was an ancient tea table in front of them, and the fragrance of tea rose.

Taoist Qingfeng picked up the teacup, took a sip of tea, and slowly said: "Mingyue, do you still remember the incident of Xi Yuxiang?"

Master Mingyue nodded slightly, stroked his beard and said, "Of course I know. Now the world is getting better and better under the leadership of Prime Minister Xi."

Master Qingfeng had admiring eyes. He looked into the distance, as if he could see the prosperous and stable scene at the foot of the mountain. He said, "Prime Minister Xi is indeed a great talent. He cares about the world and the policies he promotes are all beneficial to the people's livelihood. He has made an indelible contribution to the prosperity of the world today."

Master Mingyue also nodded slightly and agreed, "Yes, the people live and work in peace and contentment. I really hope that this peaceful and prosperous era can continue."

The faces of the two Taoists were filled with gratification. They were on this high mountain and felt sincerely happy for the stability of the world.

Master Qingfeng and Master Mingyue were immersed in their feelings for Prime Minister Xi when a little Taoist boy ran over in a hurry.

The little Taoist boy panted and said with a red face: "Master, it's bad! There is a woman who trespassed into the forbidden area at the foot of the mountain. Her attitude is very bad and she even fought with several patrolling Taoist boys."

Taoist Master Qingfeng frowned, a trace of displeasure flashed in his eyes, thinking: "Who is so bold as to trespass into the forbidden area of ​​Kunlun Mountain."

He put down the teacup, stood up, and asked seriously: "Where is the woman now?"

The little Taoist boy hurriedly replied: "She is still in the forbidden area. Several brothers are trying to stop her, but the woman seems to have some skills and they can't stop her anymore."

Taoist Master Mingyue's face also became gloomy. He stroked his beard and said: "How dare she act so wildly? Let's go and see."

As he said that, he and Taoist Master Qingfeng looked at each other. Both of them were angry in their eyes and walked quickly towards the forbidden area.

Along the way, Taoist Qingfeng thought to himself: "Who is this woman? Why did she do such an unreasonable thing?"

Taoist Mingyue was serious, ready to teach this ignorant woman a lesson.

Tuoba Yu rode her horse all the way. She had no clear destination in her mind, just let the horse take her forward.

Unexpectedly, she ran to Kunlun Mountain all of a sudden.

Several little Taoist children saw her and immediately stepped forward to stop her. One of them frowned and said loudly: "This is a forbidden area in Kunlun Mountain. Leave quickly."

Tuoba Yu looked confused. She really didn't know that this was a forbidden area. She replied angrily: "I didn't know that I couldn't come here. Why are you so fierce?"

The two sides quarreled with each other.

Tuoba Yu felt aggrieved and thought: "I was just passing by, not on purpose. Why are these Taoist children unreasonable?"

The Taoist children thought she was unreasonable. They clearly asked her to leave but still entangled here.

Finally, the quarrel became more intense, and both sides got angry and started fighting on impulse.

Tuoba Yu fought back and shouted: "I'm not a bad person, why are you doing this?"

Her eyes were filled with anger and grievance, and the Taoist children were not to be outdone, and the two sides fell into a chaotic fight.

Several little Taoist children retreated to the side with dust on their faces, some covering their injured arms, and some rubbing their legs that were kicked.

Taoist Qingfeng and Taoist Mingyue saw this scene and were full of anger.

Taoist Qingfeng's eyes were wide open, and he asked loudly: "Who are you, you hateful woman? How dare you act wild here!" His voice echoed in the mountains with unquestionable majesty.

Tuoba Yu folded her hands in front of her chest, with a stubborn look on her face, and responded loudly: "I was just passing by here. It was those Taoist children who were particularly rude to me."

There was a light of dissatisfaction in her eyes, and she thought to herself: "It was obviously them who drove me away without knowing the truth and said I was unreasonable."

Master Mingyue frowned, looked at Tuoba Yu carefully, and said: "Even if the Taoist children did something wrong, you shouldn't hurt them."

Although his tone was not as harsh as Master Qingfeng's, it was also full of blame.

Tuoba Yu curled her lips and muttered: "If they had spoken to me nicely, why would I have taken action?" Her face was full of grievances, and she felt that she was wronged.

Taoist Qingfeng and Taoist Mingyue looked grim. Taoist Qingfeng asked sternly: "Tell me, who are you?"

Tuoba Yu frowned and replied nonchalantly: "I don't know."

Taoist Mingyue snorted coldly: "Hmph, don't tease us here."

After that, the two of them flashed and attacked Tuoba Yu.

Tuoba Yu was shocked. While defending, she thought to herself: "How can these two people's kung fu be so powerful? I'm afraid I'm going to suffer a loss today." Her eyes were panicked, but she still gritted her teeth and supported herself.

Taoist Qingfeng's palm wind was fierce, and he shouted: "Tell the truth!"

Tuoba Yu dodged and shouted: "I really don't know who I am. I have lost my memory."

But the two Taoists didn't believe it, and their moves became more and more fierce.

Tuoba Yu gradually couldn't defend himself, and was soon hit, with blood flowing from the corner of his mouth.

She frowned painfully, looked at the two Taoist priests, and said with a heavy breath: "Why don't you believe me."

Taoist Qingfeng was furious: "You little thief, you are still quibbling."

Taoist Mingyue also said: "If you don't tell the truth, don't blame us for being merciless."

Tuoba Yu wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth with her hand, and a trace of stubbornness and helplessness flashed in her eyes.

She looked at the two Taoist priests and said loudly: "I really didn't lie to you, I really don't know who I am and where I come from."

Taoist Priest Qingfeng and Taoist Mingyue looked at each other. They were still a little suspicious, but when they saw Tuobayu's embarrassed and serious look, they were also a little shaken.

Taoist Master Qingfeng frowned and softened his tone slightly, saying, "Then why did you come to Kunlun Mountain? And why did you attack the Taoist boy?"

Tuobayu leaned on the horse, panting heavily, and replied: "I rode the horse and ran around, and I got here unknowingly. The Taoist boys asked me to leave without any explanation. I just made a few excuses, and they took action. That’s why I fought back.”

Taoist Master Mingyue stroked his beard, thought for a moment and then said: "No matter what, you hurt my Taoist boy in Kunlun Mountain, we can't just let it go."

Tuobayu's heart tightened. She bit her lip and thought to herself: "Are they going to continue to make things difficult for me? But now that I am seriously injured, I can't resist at all."

With a look of pain and despair on her face, she said, "Then what do you want?"

Taoist Master Qingfeng muttered: "You go up the mountain with us and recuperate in the Taoist temple. At the same time, let us investigate your origins."

Tuobayu nodded helplessly. She knew that she had no other choice now but to obey their arrangements for the time being.

After Tuobayu agreed to the request to go up the mountain, Taoist Master Qingfeng frowned even more tightly. He squinted his eyes, full of suspicion.

"Why did you agree so simply? Could it be that you have some ulterior motive? Is it because you have some ulterior motive to get closer to Kunlun Mountain?"

Tuobayu said loudly: "You just wanted to keep me, why are you saying such things now? I don't want to be wronged by you."

Her eyes flashed with anger as she continued: "I'm worried about not having enough money to eat. Wouldn't it be better for me if you took me in on the mountain? I just want a place where I can take care of myself. Recuperate, eat well, and there are no more twists and turns than you think."

Tuobayu dragged his tired and injured body and walked straight towards the mountain.

Her back looked a little stubborn on the mountain path.

Taoist priests Qingfeng and Mingyue stood there, watching her retreating figure quietly.

Taoist Master Qingfeng stroked his beard, and his slightly frowning brow gradually relaxed, thinking: "With her current appearance, she really can't make any trouble."

Taoist Master Mingyue also nodded slightly and said: "She was seriously injured, and she wouldn't dare to make a mistake on this mountain. But she still needs to be more careful."

The two Taoist priests were talking in a low voice while walking leisurely behind Tuobayu.

Tuobayu walked in front and muttered: "It's really troublesome, but it's better than wandering outside."

Her eyes scanned the surrounding scenery, and her heart was full of curiosity about the Kunlun Mountains.

The night is as dark as thick ink.

Xi Yu sat quietly at the desk, the candlelight casting flickering light and shadow on his face.

He rubbed his tired forehead and thought of those nightmares again. Those eerie, haunting nightmares left him mentally and physically exhausted.

He prayed silently in his heart: "Don't have any more nightmares today, otherwise I really won't be able to bear it anymore."

His eyes were full of longing for peace, which was a longing from the bottom of his heart to get rid of the torment of nightmares.

However, in the deepest part of his heart, there was another voice. How he wished he could have a dream, a dream in which he could dream of Tuobayu.

He leaned back in the chair, his eyes gradually becoming softer and a little sad.

He whispered in his heart: "Tuobayu, where are you? How much I want to see you in my dream."

His fingers tapped on the table unconsciously, as if this could convey the thoughts in his heart.

He fell into a deep entanglement. On the one hand, he was afraid of the nightmare coming again, but on the other hand, he was full of expectations for the dream about Tuobayu.

These two emotions were constantly intertwined and colliding in his heart, making his heart feel like it was entangled in chaos.

In the simple inn, Zhao Yun, others and Chacha Tu stayed here temporarily. At this time, it was not far from Youzhou.

Along the way, Chachatu was surprisingly honest and showed no signs of wanting to escape.

However, Zhao Yun did not relax at all.

He paced back and forth in the inn room, thinking to himself: "Although this Cha Cha Tu seems to be honest now, he must not be taken lightly."

Zhao Yun ordered his subordinates with a solemn expression: "Strengthen the guard and be sure to keep an eye on the Chacha map. His current tranquility may be just an appearance. Once we relax our vigilance, he may take the opportunity to escape."

The men responded in unison: "Yes, General."

They quickly set up sentries at various key locations in the inn, with pairs of vigilant eyes staring closely at the room where Chacha Tu was.

Chachatu stayed alone in a dark room, surrounded by silence.

In the first few days of the journey, his mind was filled with thoughts of escape.

He paced back and forth in the room, staring at the closed window and the door that seemed difficult to break through, thinking to himself: "I must find a chance to escape."

However, as time passed, he realized that under the close guard of Zhao Yun and others, there was no possibility of his escape.

He sighed helplessly and slumped down on the simple bed, his eyes full of despair. He thought to himself: "Forget it, there is no way to escape."

He lay on the bed, looking at the mottled ceiling, and new thoughts came to his mind.

He murmured to himself: "I just hope that when I see Xi Yu, he can forgive me."

The morning sun was blocked by thick clouds, and the sky seemed a little gloomy. Zhao Yun walked out of the room, looked up at the leaden sky, and frowned.

He felt the dampness in the air, and a heavy rain seemed to be coming. (End of this chapter)
