Chapter 128 Can He Leave Now?
Jiang Bu and An Yi had been searching Nanhui Mountain for a whole day, but still hadn't found any clues or information. They stood on the top of the mountain, overlooking the misty mountains, feeling helpless and frustrated. Jiang Bu felt like he was going crazy, because he knew his elder brother was in the mountain, but he couldn't find him. Maybe his elder brother's location was too hidden, so the other party was unwilling to reveal it to him.
As the secret guard of the palace, An Yi also felt a sense of powerlessness at this moment. Although he had outstanding abilities and experience, he was helpless in the face of such a situation. However, the only thing that comforted him was that although the other party was mysterious, he did not take any hostile actions against them, nor did he launch a sneak attack. This showed that the other party might not be hostile, but as to whether they were friends, further observation and understanding were needed.
During their search, there was always a mysterious force interfering with their direction and judgment. This force seemed to be deliberately leading them away from their target, rather than directly harming them. This was exactly what Xu Nuo ordered: to let his men interfere with their search, but not harm them. Xu Nuo understood that if he wanted to get more information from Jiang Bu, he had to maintain a certain degree of friendliness and trust.
"Third Master, our people have been searching for almost five days. Do you want to go down the mountain and take a rest? The eldest master should not be in too much danger at the moment. It's just a matter of time." An Yi Jue Zhao said guiltily. He really didn't expect that this time would be so difficult. He led his brothers to search the mountain for several days but had no clues, and didn't even find a trace. At this time, he felt that his ability didn't seem to be of much use here, and he didn't help Jiang Bu.
Jiang Bu understood what he meant, but he didn't plan to give up. He knew An Yi had good intentions and was worried that his body couldn't handle it, but he was more concerned about his brother's safety. So, he shook his head and rejected An Yi's suggestion: "Brother An Yi, I'm not tired. Let's wait a little longer, maybe we can find him tomorrow."
An Yi saw that he could not persuade Jiang Bu, so he stopped talking. He knew that Jiang Bu had a deep relationship with the eldest son and would not give up the search easily. Moreover, they were now in someone else's territory and could not act rashly, otherwise it might cause unnecessary trouble.
Jiang Bu looked at the endless mountains in front of him, praying silently in his heart that he could find his elder brother as soon as possible. He knew that the power in the mountains should not be underestimated. If it weren't for his elder brother's disappearance, he would not want to conflict with them. But now, he can only wait and hope for a miracle.
The next morning, the sun rose and the sunlight shone on the mountains, bringing a hint of life to the quiet forest. However, Jiang Bu and others still did not receive any news about the eldest son. After some discussion, Jiang Bu decided to withdraw some of his men first to avoid unnecessary conflicts.
An Yi first ordered some of his men to evacuate, while he and An Shi stayed behind to continue the search. Jiang Bu stayed on the mountain, anxiously waiting for news. He knew that this wait might take a long time, but he believed that as long as he persisted, he would eventually find his elder brother.
The morning sun shone through the window into the room. When Jiang Xing woke up, he found that only the servant was by his side. He thought that Xu Nuo, who had promised to leave today, would show up, but in the end she did not show up. This made Jiang Xing feel a little lost and confused, and he didn't know how to bring up the matter of leaving.
The servant was as silent as usual, and just quietly brought Jiang Xing the medicine he drank every day. Jiang Xing secretly hoped to see Xu Nuo's cold figure again, but he did not get his wish until he finished drinking the medicine. Disappointed, he could not help but feel a wave of drowsiness, so he casually lay on the table and prepared to take a rest.
Only when he fell asleep completely did Xu Nuo tiptoe to the door, gently opened it, and let Doctor Hu in.
"Grandpa Hu, can he walk now due to his injuries?" Xu Nuo looked at Jiang Xing lying on the table with some concern, frowning slightly.
Doctor Hu smiled and stroked his beard: "Girl, do you not trust my medicine? His injuries have almost healed, and there is nothing serious now. As for his excessive blood loss, he will slowly take supplements. His eyes will recover in five or six days, don't worry!"
When Xu Nuo heard this, the stone in her heart finally fell, and she breathed a sigh of relief: "That's good."
Doctor Hu walked to the bedside, glanced at Jiang Xing, then stretched out his finger to touch Jiang Xing's pulse. After a while, he withdrew his hand and said, "This kid has fallen asleep. We can send him out now."
Xu Nuo nodded, she turned around and sat on the chair, quietly looking at Jiang Xing who was lying on the ground, a complex emotion surging in her heart.
Doctor Hu looked at Xu Nuo, a smile flashed in his eyes: "Girl, do you like this boy?"
Xu Nuo's eyes flickered when she heard that. She waved her hand and said, "No, I'm just concerned about his injury. After all, I saved him."
Doctor Hu smiled without saying anything. He knew Xu Nuo was a kind girl. Although she didn't say it, one could tell from her eyes and expression that she cared deeply for Jiang Xing.
Xu Nuo felt a little embarrassed when being looked at by Doctor Hu, so she stood up and called the servants.
"Someone, send this young master away. Remember to be secretive and not reveal the location of the villa. Also, consider the safety of Young Master Jiang." After saying that, he left the room.
