Chapter 170 Don't Look Down on Me
He then pulled Zhou Hanzhang aside, signaling her to stay there while he went out to investigate.
Zhou Hanzhang knew that there was no way to reason with Shi Jian at this point, so he stepped back a little.
After they left, the man turned around.
When Zhou Hanzhang took a look, hey, it really was an acquaintance.
That was his senior brother from Tianan Academy, one of the four oddballs, Shen Moli.
Shen Moli looked at He Shi, who had emerged from behind the rock, and felt that he looked somewhat familiar. After a while, he finally recognized him, "You are... the servant boy next to Junior Brother Zhou?"
She recognized him the moment he turned around, but she didn't know why he had come to this rocky mountain.
Upon seeing that it was Shen Moli, Zhou Hanzhang no longer bothered to hide and directly carried Xiao Cuiyan out of the rock.
"Senior Brother Shen."
Shen Moli watched Zhou Hanzhang emerge from behind the rock, a knowing look on his face.
He said, "How could someone who has always been by your side leave their master and act on their own?"
"What are you doing on this rocky mountain, Junior Brother Zhou?"
"I'm here to find someone."
Where is Senior Brother Shen?
“I’m also looking for someone. I received a letter saying that my master has taken on a junior disciple here, but my master is helping my junior brother to look for someone in Shishan. I was afraid that something might happen to my master, so I came to Shishan without delay after receiving the letter.”
Have you seen anyone else on this rocky mountain?
"We've seen two of the men in black who were fighting with our senior brother just now."
Also, is the master that Senior Brother Shen mentioned Liu Niang?
Shen Moli looked at Zhou Hanzhang, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he smiled.
"You wouldn't happen to be my master's new apprentice, would you? I rushed all the way from the capital without a moment's delay and didn't even contact Xiangxiang and the others."
As soon as I arrived in Cuiyan Town, I went straight up the mountain without even asking who my master's new apprentice was. I never expected it to be you.
That makes sense, you really are the kind of disciple Master likes. If I had known you were here, I wouldn't have come. Xiangxiang didn't even explain things clearly to me.
"By the way, did you come to see His Majesty and your father? Did you find them?"
Zhou Hanzhang was surprised that this person could guess from these clues that he came to Shishan to find the emperor and Zhou Huaide. But then again, perhaps Xiangxiang had already told him in the letter.
Seeing her expression, Shen Moli knew what she was thinking. "Xiangxiang didn't tell me that you were looking for someone. She only told me that my junior brother was going up the mountain to find someone, and then Master made the trip for you because the rocky mountain was dangerous."
I saw you, and then I saw those two people,”
He glanced at the two dead men in black.
"Considering the current situation in the capital, I suspect that you came here because His Majesty and your father came to Cuiyan Town and disappeared here."
Looking at Shen Moli, who had guessed the reason from these clues, Zhou Hanzhang couldn't help but give him a thumbs up.
She, on the other hand, never imagined that the senior brother her master had mentioned in the capital was actually Shen Moli.
Zhou Hanzhang didn't hesitate at all, and greeted Shen Moli with a cupped-hand salute, "Greetings, Senior Brother."
Hearing "Senior Brother" made Shen Moli feel much happier.
“I did go up Stone Mountain to find His Majesty and my father, but I have already found them. Gu Qingfeng came to Cuiyan Town with General Gu. General Gu is guarding Cuiyan Town now. Gu Qingfeng came up Stone Mountain with me, but he sent His Majesty and my father out first. He Shi and I stayed behind to continue looking for our master.”
Zhou Hanzhang explained the current situation to Shen Moli in one breath.
"Have you seen any trace of your master along the way?"
"No, I only saw several groups of men in black like that. It seems they came for His Majesty."
Zhou Hanzhang pondered for a while, "If they know that His Majesty has left Shishan, they will probably leave soon. The most urgent thing now is to find Master."
Before Master came into Shishan, he asked Xiangxiang to tell us to wait for her there for three days. If she didn't come out, he would send you another message. I was afraid that Master had met with misfortune in Shishan, so I brought a map with me.
"I never expected that before I could find my master, I would find His Majesty and my father first."
"Now that we have found His Majesty and your father, that's a good thing. It means that we can now focus on finding our master."
"Since you've encountered several groups of men in black, have you managed to get any information about your master from them?"
Shen Moli shook his head. "They are very stubborn. Even after taking my medicine, they still refuse to talk. They must be assassins sent by Yunmeng Kingdom."
"but,"
Shen Moli took something out of his pocket. "Look at this."
"Isn't this Master's hairband?"
Zhou Hanzhang noticed that although the headband was dark in color, it shimmered slightly in the sunlight, making it look understated yet luxurious.
In her memory, she had only ever seen this material and this color scheme on Liu Niang's head.
Without a doubt, it must be hers.
"That's right. Master only wears headbands made of this material. I picked it from the tree in front of us. I suppose she used it to guide us."
Zhou Hanzhang handed the ribbon back to Shen Moli, "Then let's hurry up and go. It seems that Master must have left us more than just this hairband. Let's keep going forward, and maybe we can find other traces."
Although Shen Moli has lived in Medicine King Valley all these years, he hasn't spent much time with Liu Niang since he grew up.
But in his heart, Liu Niang existed just like his mother.
At this moment, he was more anxious than anyone else.
Just as Zhou Hanzhang said she was leaving, the little Cuiyan in her arms let out a "woof".
Let me see that hairband!
"You want to see this hairband?"
Zhou Hanzhang looked at the hairband that had been handed to Shen Moli and hesitated, "This is not something you can play with. It belongs to my master."
"Awoo!"
I know, I don't play.
I'll just smell it.
Bring it over here so I can smell it, and I'll find someone for you.
"You have this function?"
"Awoo!"
of course.
Don't look down on me.
Little Emerald Flame tilted its head back.
Shen Moli then noticed the little snow wolf's eyes, "A two-eyed snow wolf?"
"Senior brother, are you referring to its eyeballs?"
"This kind of snow wolf is one in ten thousand, literally one in ten thousand. You might not find even one two-eyed snow wolf among ten thousand purebred snow wolves. How did you get this little thing?"
Shen Moli excitedly squatted down, approaching Xiao Cuiyan and wanting to reach out and hug her.
Little Cuiyan was startled when she saw his bright eyes. She immediately bared her teeth at him and then quickly jumped back into Zhou Hanzhang's arms.
Looking at the person in front of it, it felt a chill run down its spine for some reason.
After it jumped back onto Zhou Hanzhang, it buried its head in Zhou Hanzhang's arms.
"...Junior brother, what's this?"
I haven't done anything to it yet, is it really necessary?
Shen Moli silently complained.
"I'm not sure either. Maybe it's just shy because it's new to you?"
