She also wanted her family to be reunited . However, after so many years, she didn’t dare to have this thought .
Feng Jiu just said that her father always held her mother’s things when he missed her . So, after all these years, he had never remarried? His memory was obviously sealed, how could he remember all these?
With that look in her eyes, sitting quietly with a blank and despondent gaze, Shangguan Wanrong had no reaction even though the pheasant on the fire was slightly burnt .
Seeing this, Feng Jiu took the branch in her hand and asked her, “Martial Uncle Shangguan, you haven’t answered me yet . Will my mother come home with me?”
At this, Shangguan Wanrong came to her senses . She lifted her sleeve to wipe her tears away and adjusted her mind, suppressing the turmoil and excitement in her heart forcefully and gazed at her . “She will . She will go back with you, but not now . ”
Feng Jiu looked at her fixedly . Their eyes met . That layer of unpierced barrier seemed to have disappeared in front of them . They guessed each other’s identity but did not acknowledge their relationships .
After a long time, Feng Jiu restrained her gaze . “I know . ” This matter should have been related to the Master Third Sun . What on earth did this man want to do?
Seeing that she held her eyes back with an unsmiling face, Shangguan Wanrong said hurriedly, “She will go back . When she has dealt with her affairs, she will go back, I promise . ”
“Mm hmm . I believe you . ” She looked up with a smile and nodded .
After a while, the roast pheasant was done . After adding a little seasoning, she handed one to her . “Have a taste . ”
“Thank you . ” Shangguan Wanrong took it, whispered her thanks, tore off a piece and began to eat .
While eating roast pheasant, they chatted . Maybe it was because they opened their mouths . Although they didn’t break through the barrier and acknowledge the relationship, their feelings and mood were a little different .
After eating the roast pheasant, they continued to move forward . This time, Shangguan Wanrong took the initiative to talk . “Among the three herbs my master asked me to collect, one of them is the Stone Iron Azalea . This kind of spirit herb grows in the crevices of the stone walls and can only be seen in the mountain walls’ precipices . When I go halfway up the mountain to have a look, you can stay and wait . ”
“Stone Iron Azalea? This is a very rare spirit herb . There must be a guardian beast by the spirit herb’s side . Located halfway up the mountain, most of the guardian beasts are poisonous snakes . ” Feng Jiu spoke with a frown . “Since you’re gathering the Stone Iron Azalea, I’ll go down and pick it! I can recognize this spirit herb . ”
“That won’t do . It’s too dangerous . It’ll just head down, don’t worry! It’s not my first time picking herbs . It’s going to be alright . ” She refused directly . When she reached the top, she took a thick rope from the space and tied it to her body .
“I came prepared . Everything was complete and I had taken the antidote beforehand . ”
Feng Jiu had no choice but to come forward and take the rope in her hand and tie it firmly to her . “Then, be careful . I’ll wait for you above . One side of the rope will be tied to the big tree here . ”
As she spoke, she tied the other end of the rope to a nearby tree . “Call me if you need anything or pull on the rope . ”
Shangguan Wanrong had a gentle smile on her face . “I know . Don’t worry . Wait for me here, you also have to be careful with the surroundings, in case there are ferocious beasts . ”
With that, she took some pills from the space and handed them to her . “You can keep these for self defence . ”
