Hearing Su Qing’s question, the Prince smiled bitterly.

“Ling’er is poisoned. She needs ten precious herbs to make an antidote. Snow Lotus is one of them. I came to Sky Mountain to find Snow Lotus for her.” Su Qing’s eyes moved slightly. Why did it sound the same as Li’er’s poison?

“Among the ten precious medicinal herbs you mentioned, is there a meat lingzhi, which is Taisui?”

Su Qing looked at the Prince and asked. If he had the meat lingzhi, she would not have to look for it everywhere! Since she had two snow lotuses, she could exchange one for the rest.

“How did Young Lady know?”

The Prince looked at Su Qing strangely. Could it be that she was also concocting the antidote for the poison?

“Do you have any meat lingzhi mushrooms?”

Su Qing didn’t answer his question but asked him a question instead. The Prince nodded.

“I found one. It’s huge. If you want it, I can give you half.”

“Alright, I’ll give you a snow lotus in exchange.”

Su Qing was delighted to hear that the Prince had the Flesh Lingzhi and offered to trade.

The Prince did not expect this. Didn’t she want to kill him? Why did she agree to exchange the snow lotus for Lingzhi?

Thinking that Ling’er could be saved, the Prince struggled to stand up and saluted Su Qing with one hand in front of his chest. This was their highest courtesy.

He suddenly felt that something was wrong. He was in extreme pain just a moment ago, and it was so painful that he could not breathe. How could he not feel any pain after making such a big move?

Could it be that this girl didn’t give him poison? Instead, it was a panacea?

“Thank you for the medicine.”

The Prince understood and said gratefully to Su Qing.

“You’re welcome. Let’s go down the mountain. I need the Flesh Lingzhi Mushroom and want to see what kind of poison your princess has.”

Su Qing’s eyes were cold and solemn. She didn’t expect that there would be such a poison thousands of miles away. If it was the same poison, it meant that the person who poisoned him was nearby.

The poison that harmed Li’er might have been given to that woman by this person. Since the culprit was found, she absolutely would not let it go.

Moreover, after getting along with him, she felt this Prince was not evil. Being the leader of the Hui people was a good thing for the Great Tang.

“Alright, let’s go back to the palace.”

The Prince agreed excitedly. The two guards came to support him. They were all happy for the Prince. If he was not dead, they did not have to sacrifice themselves for their master. No one was willing to die if they could live well!

At this moment, they looked at Su Qing with reverence and gratitude. They respectfully let her walk in front, thinking she was a fairy sent by God.

As for Badan Mu, who wanted to kill Su Qing, the Prince ordered people to bury him in the snow. It was the last friendship between master and servant.

Su Qing chopped down a tree and made two walking sticks for the Prince.

“Thank you, Miss.”

The Prince thanked her gratefully. With these two crutches, he did not need the guards to support him. Everyone was safe. Otherwise, the path down the mountain would be slippery, narrow, and very dangerous.

They went down the mountain with difficulty. Guards were waiting at the foot of the mountain with a carriage. The Big Black Horse had been placed in the system by Su Qing. Now, she released Big Black.

The Prince was shocked to see a black horse appear out of nowhere, but he did not ask anything. There were too many magical things about this girl. Snow lotuses were not something that ordinary people could pick. They needed to climb to the top of the mountain and be lucky enough to pick them.

The Prince sat in the carriage. He had set off in plain clothes this time. There was no royal insignia on the carriage. It looked like an ordinary carriage. The guards rode around the carriage and protected it. They were also wearing the clothes of ordinary tribesmen, but their eyes were different. They were sharp and alert.

Su Qing rode on Da Hei and followed behind them. Da Hei had rested in the system for two days and was energetic. It kept snorting and looked very excited.

The Prince and the guards all looked at Black with curiosity. Why were the horse’s eyes so bright? His fur was glowing, and the muscles on his legs were firm. He walked especially steadily and ran as fast as lightning.

The big black horse seemed to know that they were looking at him. It raised its head and took small steps steadily, looking very proud.

The Tianshan Mountains were massive. They walked for two days and two nights before they arrived at the city where the Prince was. Su Qing saw the city was covered in sand, and the houses were very low. The palace looked magnificent among these low houses. The white buildings stood out from the crowd.

There were some shops on both sides of the road. They sold bags, mutton skewers, tripe buns, and roasted buns. They looked very greedy. When these businessmen saw a car passing by, they greeted it warmly. A girl selling spicy sheep hooves even chased after the carriage boldly and asked,

“Do you want the sheep’s hooves and heads that have just been cooked?”

The guards chased the girl away. Su Qing saw that this Hui girl was gorgeous. Even her tattered clothes could not hide her natural beauty. Her eyes were big and black, and her long eyelashes were like fans. She was lovely.

“No, go away.”

The guards did not allow her to get close to the carriage, but the little girl did not give up and chased after the carriage. Su Qing suddenly noticed a flash of light under the lamb hoof plate the little girl was holding. She instantly became alert and looked at the little girl sharply.

The little girl walked close enough to the carriage and suddenly threw out a bag of sand. Taking advantage of the guard’s dazzled eyes, she threw away the sheep’s hoof and leaped up, holding a sharp scimitar in her hand.

Everything happened too quickly. The guards on the other side of the carriage did not have time to react. The little girl had already lifted the curtain of the carriage and wanted to assassinate the Prince in the carriage. At the critical moment, a sleeve arrow pierced her wrist with a knife. The Prince took the opportunity to kick her away. The guards rushed up and pressed her to the ground.

The assassination attempt was a close shave. Everyone broke out in a cold sweat. The Prince looked at Su Qing gratefully.

“Miss, you saved me again.”

Su Qing didn’t say anything. Her expression was still cold. She looked at the little girl who was still struggling on the ground. Her eyes were strangely red. Was she poisoned?

Su Qing walked over and cut the little girl’s wrists with a knife. A middle-aged woman squeezed out of the crowd and rushed over, crying.

“Don’t kill my daughter. Don’t kill her.”

The guards pressed her to the ground as well. Even though the woman was pressed to the ground, she still cried and begged. The surrounding merchants and pedestrians on the road came over to watch. Some people accused the guards of bullying her.

Su Qing did not care about these people. She took out a pill and stuffed it into the girl’s mouth, forcing the Gu worm out of her cut wrist. When everyone saw the black worm crawling in the girl’s blood, they were all frightened.

What was going on? How could there be worms in the human body?

“She’s been poisoned by the gu. It’s been cured.”

Su Qing bandaged some hemostatic powder on the little girl’s wrist. She looked up and said to Prince in the car.

“Alright.”

The Prince nodded. He was shocked by Su Qing’s medical skills. Previously, he had only taken a pill from her, and the pain in his body had disappeared. He could still walk on his own. Now, she used this terrifying but effective method to cure the gu. Who was this girl?

In the crowd, a man with an aquiline nose and hawk eyes looked at Su Qing maliciously. She had ruined his plan..
