Chapter 1650: Chapter 1588: Stationed at the Miao Village
This tribe is surrounded by mountains on all sides, with towering peaks that seem to touch the sky, truly reaching the heavens. The cliffs are steep, and a river winds through the village, stretching endlessly beyond sight.
As Ah Sang walked into the village, many people greeted her, addressing her as the Saintess, and curiously observing Wufu and his entourage.
Ah Sang arranged for them to stay in a wooden house next to her residence and summoned a few attendants.
"Since youâre entering with me, everyone knows youâre my esteemed guests, and there will be some deference, but itâs best not to stir up trouble. Guards shouldnât provoke the women of the tribe to avoid unnecessary issues," Ah Sang advised.
Wufu saluted and said, "I will make sure they behave."
Ah Sang nodded and then looked at Ah Jiu, saying, "Your healthâlater, I will gather the elders to examine you."
Ah Jiu cupped his hands and said, "Thank you." After a pause, he asked, "Saintess, do you know where our people are currently? Can you lead us to them?"
Ah Sang replied, "You wish to seek them out?"
"More precisely, to support them," Wufu said. "The Love Flower is rare, so sending more people will provide additional strength."
"If you encounter snakes or poisonous creatures on the way and fail to treat them in time, our Miao Village will not bear that responsibility," Ah Sang pondered and said.
"Of course."
"Then prepare yourself and select people. In a while, Iâll have someone lead you there. It takes two or three days to reach the place, so be mentally prepared."
Wufu thanked her smilingly, and after Ah Sang left, he asked Jadeite to tidy up, prepare some hot water, and let Ah Jiu rest. He also summoned Yuan Ye and others to select people to support those who had already arrived.
Ah Jiu said, "Hoo Dieâs Qinggong is excellent; let him and Chi Wu go."
Wufu thought the same, and since both had experience in the Cloud Realm, he called them over and explained the task. Neither had any objections.
"Now that weâre here, you donât need to worry too much. Just rest and recover," Ah Jiu said, squeezing Wufuâs hand.
Wufu nodded. "Donât worry, Iâm just a bit weak, nothing serious, and since weâre here, weâll surely return safely."
Ah Jiu nodded with a smile.
Wufu chatted with him for a while, ate a little to fill his stomach, then took out a pen and paper to reply to Purple Jade.
Madam Zhou is soft-hearted. Although she says thereâs nothing she can do, itâs truly difficult for her to stand by and do nothing, especially when sheâs pregnant. Isnât it said that a motherâs heart is always softer?
So, even if she intervenes, she has to use the right method.
Wufu had already thought along the way; someone like Zhou Xuennian is incorrigible. Even if saved, he wouldnât change, so he might as well stay inside.
If theyâre still alive, then they should be taken care of in prison. As long as they have food and drink, they wonât die, and itâs better than coming out to cause trouble.
Besides, to ensure they have food and drink, Madam Lu and her people must cooperate, going back to Wozi Village to assist.
But whether they will cooperate is doubtful. Itâs hard to see much genuine affection from Madam Lu and her people towards Zhou Xuennian and his son.
If those two can no longer survive, then itâs fate, and no one is to blame.
After finishing the letter, she sealed it, tied it to the courier hawkâs foot, and released it. Wufu watched as the hawk became a small dot in the sky, her gaze deep and solemn.
