She clearly had resentment in her heart, but her physiology had a subconscious reaction. She hated herself like this, but she was powerless to change. Regardless of whether she was well or not, as long as she did not escape, she could only rely on Su Xiaoling to survive.
It was a cruel truth.
Su Xiaolu and the others passed through countless mountains, but they still did not find them.
This was the terror of the foreign land.
Zhou Heng’s expression was terrifyingly dark. His suppressed emotions were more of pain.
In this journey, only his secret guards, Su Xiaolu, Su Kuo, and Little Niu were with him. They thought that they would be able to find them in two days at most, but they did not expect there to be so many strange things in this foreign land. After crossing a mountain, there was still another mountain.
In the foreign land, there were many dangers, and they encountered many poisonous insects.
spiritual energy and internal energy were suppressed.
Little Niu was divining, and Zhou Heng didn’t even dare to blink.
After Little Niu was done, Zhou Heng asked in a hoarse voice, “Master Niu, how far is it?”
Little Niu said with a calm expression, “We’re at the 16th level now. If nothing goes wrong, we’ll arrive in five days.”
“Is she all right?”
Zhou Heng swallowed. This was what he was most worried about. This was because the previous reading had shown that Su Xiaoling was injured and in danger. During those two days, Little Niu had to do the reading again every two hours.
Fortunately, everything was fine after that.
“She’s okay, the Crown Prince doesn’t have to be anxious. Now, we only need to slowly cross the nineteen mountains to find them. They’re not in danger.”
Through the divination, Little Niu had already obtained answers. In such a foreign land where spells couldn’t be used, people had to be more patient.
The hexagram now showed that it was calm. Compared to the previous few days, it was much better.
Su Xiaoling was very smart and did not move around randomly. She just needed to continue waiting.
In this foreign land, if one could not tell the direction, they might walk further and further away. This would make it even more difficult to find them. It was very likely that they would never be able to find them again.
Everyone rested and ate something.
Zhou Heng looked a little haggard. He couldn’t eat or sleep.
Fortunately, they were getting closer.
After a few anxious days, Su Xiaolu and the others discovered some traces.
Su Kuo said in surprise, “Sister, they’re not far.”
Su Xiaolu nodded and heaved a sigh of relief.
If they found traces, they would be able to see them soon.
Everyone walked faster.
Following the trail, Su Xiaolu and the others found the small cliff cave. Zhou Heng had already shouted, “Xiaoling, Xiaoling, are you there?”
When Su Xiaoling heard the shout, she stood up happily.
However, Wei Ling suddenly said nervously and sharply, “Tell them not to come in.”
Wei Ling covered her face nervously. In the past twenty days, she had lost her dignity and caused her endless pain. Now, she was even more afraid of being seen.
Su Xiaoling glanced at Wei Ling and snorted coldly. She turned around and left.
“It’s me.”
When Su Xiaoling came out of the small cliff cave, Zhou Heng had already run to her side and hugged her tightly.
Su Xiaolu also came over to take Su Xiaoling’s pulse.
Su Xiaoling smiled gently and said, “I’m fine. Some light injuries have already healed.”
Her injuries were almost healed, but Wei Ling’s was the most serious.
After Su Xiaoling let go of Zhou Heng, she said, “Mother is still inside. She’s seriously injured and can’t walk anymore.”
Zhou Heng’s expression was calm as he ordered calmly, “Go and carry her out.”
Su Xiaoling frowned slightly.
Soon, Wei Ling’s scream came from the small cliff cave.
“Get lost. Don’t touch me. I’m the empress!” “Rebellious, rebellious. I want to kill all of you!” “Heng’er, how can you treat Mother like this— Wei Ling broke down again.
But when she was carried out, no one paid much attention to her.
Su Xiaolu did not go forward to treat her.
Su Kuo and Little Niu were also only paying attention to Su Xiaoling and Su Xiaolu.
Everyone rested for a while and decided to leave the mountain.
Wei Ling vented for a long time and realized that no one was paying attention to her. She gritted her teeth, her eyes filled with hatred, but in the end, her hatred calmed down and her heart felt empty.
Because no one was paying attention to her.
The divine doctor, Su Xiaolu, had no intention of treating her.
Her son, Zhou Heng, only got the secret guards to make a simple wooden frame to carry her.
Being looked down on made Wei Ling feel even worse.
After only two days, Wei Ling couldn’t take it anymore. She said to Zhou Heng, “Heng’er, everything I did was for you. Even if I let the world down, I’ve never let you down. Back then, when you and Zhi’er were together, I chose you.” Zhou Heng looked over coldly and said calmly, “Mother, what do you want?”
Wei Ling was stunned. She hoped that Zhou Heng would remember this, but he actually asked her what she wanted.
wel Ling’s neart was DroKen. sne couldn’t move now. Witn tne amnne aoctor DY her side, what could she do?
Since Wei Ling didn’t say anything, Zhou Heng stopped looking at her.
Wei Ling looked at Zhou Heng and Su Xiaoling’s identical methods and hated them to the core. She knew that if she didn’t speak, it was impossible for Zhou Heng to ask. Even if he knew, he would still pretend to be deaf and mute.
Wei Ling said with difficulty, “Heng’er, Xiaoling, Mother is seriously injured.
Let divine doctor Su take a look at Mother.”
Wei Ling thought that Zhou Heng and Su Xiaoling would disagree.
But in the next moment, Su Xiaoling had already said to Su Xiaolu, “Xiaolu, the empress asks you to treat her.”
Zhou Heng also said, “Xiaolu, please treat my mother.”
Wei Ling looked at Su Xiaolu and clenched her fists nervously.
Su Xiaolu’s expression was cold. Her eyebrows moved slightly as she looked at Wei Ling and said calmly, “It’s not fated. I won’t treat it.”
In just four words, she rejected the question.
Wei Ling was speechless. After a while, she was furious. She shouted at Zhou Heng, “Heng’er, I’m your mother. How can you just watch as she treats your mother like this?”
Zhou Heng looked at Wei Ling coldly. Ignoring the fact that there were people present, he had already said coldly, “So, what does Mother want me to do? Kill her? Mother wanted me to ask her to treat you. I did. Is it because the outcome wasn’t as Mother wished that Mother wants to kill her? Just like what you did to Ah Zhi back then?”
“If possible, I don’t want to be your child. I wish you had never given birth to me. I wish I had died in that scheme long ago.”
Zhou Heng looked at Wei Ling coldly.
Wei Ling looked at Zhou Heng in shock, as if she couldn’t believe that Zhou Heng would say such cold words.
Wei Ling’s heart was very empty. She couldn’t feel any mother-son relationship.
The two children she had given birth to had become enemies with her.
She seemed to have suffered a blow and did not say another word.
Wei Ling didn’t say anything else until they went out. She just often stared into the distance in a daze, thinking about something..
