Chapter 209 The Golden Eagle King Seeks Help (3)
If it weren't for Murong Ling'er's order, the Golden Eagle King would not be willing to catch these noisy humans. They are so noisy!
The Golden Eagle King rolled his eyes in disgust and complained, but his claws were tightly grasping Chu Yinyin's clothes. He flew at an extremely fast speed, and the wind whistled past his ears.
Finally, it impatiently put the screaming Chu Yinyin into a cave halfway up the cliff.
Even when her buttocks hit the ground, Chu Yinyin was still shaking and screaming.
When Murong Chen was gently put down, Chu Yinyin was still screaming, which shows how fast the Golden Eagle King can transport people.
Murong Chen couldn't stand the high-pitched screams. He frowned, ran over quickly, and walked to Chu Yinyin. He took a deep breath and shouted into her ear, "It's already landed, stop screaming!"
Chu Yinyin was frightened by Murong Chen's sudden shout in her ear, and her screams stopped abruptly.
She then removed her hands from covering her eyes and looked around. When she saw the thousand-foot cliff in front of her, she felt dizzy. With a "bang", she fell on Murong Chen, causing him to lose his balance and fall on his butt.
"Xiaochen!" Lin Dong, who had just been transported up by the Golden Eagle King, hurried over and helped the man up.
He gently patted the dust off Murong Chen and asked with concern, "Are you hurt?"
Murong Chen shook his head, stood up, looked at Chu Yinyin who was still in a daze, and sighed helplessly.
The golden eagle king spread his huge wings and flapped them vigorously again and again, bringing up gusts of wind. His claws were like iron hooks, grabbing everyone accurately and steadily, and rushed towards the cave entrance on the cliff.
Every takeoff and landing is accompanied by people's exclamations and amazement.
As it transported more and more people to safety, fewer and fewer people remained below, and the once noisy and crowded venue gradually became empty and lonely.
Chu Lingfeng raised his head slightly, looking past the crowd at Murong Ling'er. He opened his lips slightly and spoke in a steady and calm voice, "Miss Murong, I'm afraid these carriages will have to stay here! The terrain here is dangerous, and it's inconvenient to move forward with the carriages. The road ahead is also difficult and it's hard for the carriages to cross."
Upon hearing this, Murong Ling'er took light steps and turned to look at Chu Lingfeng.
Her eyes were clear and bright, revealing a firmness. "Master Chu, I'll leave these people to you for now. Please take good care of Chen'er for me. I'm going to take another route. I'll meet you as soon as possible with these carriages and horses. These carriages are loaded with supplies and luggage. It would be a pity to abandon them. I will definitely find a proper solution."
Chu Lingfeng had never expected that Murong Ling'er had such a different plan. His heart tightened. Hearing that she was going to guard these carriages and horses alone, a feeling of worry surged into his heart like a tide!
He quickly said, "Miss Murong, it might not be appropriate for you to go alone! The road ahead is mysterious and unpredictable, and there may be many unknown dangers lurking in the dark. How about I send a few people to accompany you, so that we can look after each other and support each other and overcome the difficulties together."
His eyes were full of concern and sincerity, and he leaned forward slightly, as if trying his best to persuade her.
"No need, I'm enough!" Murong Ling'er looked resolute and said in a resolute tone, and she refused without hesitation.
She wondered inwardly, if someone was following her, how could she quietly store these things in the space? That would inevitably lead to a lot of suspicion and trouble, and there might be variables.
Murong Ling'er's decisive refusal left Chu Lingfeng speechless for a moment, and he found it difficult to find a suitable reason to convince her.
He had intended to follow her in person and protect her, but her attitude was so resolute, like an unshakable mountain.
He was torn and struggling inside, wanting to secretly send someone to follow behind, but he was afraid that this would anger Murong Ling'er and make her unhappy, which would be counterproductive.
In the end, Chu Lingfeng could only stand there with full of worry, watching Murong Ling'er driving the carriages and horses slowly into the cave with a graceful figure but incomparable determination.
In his eyes, the gradually receding figure seemed to carry endless loneliness and unknown danger, which made his heart tighten.
Murong Ling'er was just pretending. After entering the cave, she used her keen perception to make sure that there was no one watching around.
After all those people successfully climbed up the cliff and walked away along the predetermined path, she gently waved her hands, exerted the magical power of space, and instantly collected the carriage and horses into the space.
Then, she moved as fast as lightning, using her lightness skills to rush towards the Tang family at the fastest speed.
On this side, ever since Murong Ling'er agreed to help them and their clansmen cure their illnesses, the joy on Tang Muyang's face has been like flowers blooming in spring, and he can no longer suppress it.
There was a glimmer of hope in his eyes, as if he saw the beautiful scene of his family being reborn.
He paced back and forth in the clan territory excitedly, constantly thinking about the medicinal herbs that needed to be prepared and the arrangements for various things, and was eagerly looking forward to Murong Ling'er's arrival.
Tang Xiangling approached gracefully, her lotus steps light and graceful. Seeing her father's serious expression, her beautiful face was immediately filled with confusion. She opened her red lips and asked softly, "Dad, what can you do for Miss Murong?"
Tang Muyang's gaze fell on his daughter. Looking at her clear yet ignorant eyes, he couldn't help but feel a surge of emotion in his heart.
This child has a simple mind, like a blank piece of paper that has never been painted. Although this often causes him worries, this simplicity also brings him a special blessing.
In this precarious family predicament, if it weren't for this lucky break, how could the Tang family have hoped for a turnaround that could change their fate? Even if this hope was as shaky as a candle in the wind, it was better than sitting and waiting to die, surrendering without a fight.
He sighed slightly and told the story of how he accidentally discovered that Murong Ling'er was proficient in medicine.
However, in the process of telling the story, he cleverly concealed Huo Shuixian's identity as the orphan of the national defense general.
After all, this matter is of great importance. The fewer people who know about it, the smaller the risk. My daughter is simple-minded and outspoken. If she knows such a secret, it may be leaked inadvertently, which will be a big trouble.
Tang Xiangling listened quietly. At first she was just curious, but as her father spoke, her eyes gradually brightened and the joy in her heart surged like a tide.
After Tang Muyang finished speaking, she was so excited that she could not control herself. She suddenly raised her hand and slapped her forehead hard. The crisp sound echoed in the silent space.
She seemed to want to confirm that she was not in a dream.
Then, like a happy little deer, she almost jumped up and shouted to Tang Muyang: "Dad, this is great, great, you are saved!"
In her heart, her father is like a towering mountain and the pillar of the entire family.
Ever since her father turned forty, she has been living in fear every day. Every morning when she wakes up, the first thing she does is to quietly go to her father's door to check, for fear that she will suddenly lose him one day.
"Keep your voice down and don't make this public."
Seeing his daughter so excited, Tang Muyang quickly stepped forward and gently covered her mouth with his hand, his eyes showing a hint of nervousness and seriousness. "If it doesn't work out, then we won't let the tribe down."
He knew that the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment. Before he was completely sure of the situation, he didn't want to let the whole family fall into false joy.
Tang Xiangling blinked and nodded vigorously. She understood her father's concerns and knew the seriousness of the matter, so she obediently kept her mouth shut, burying her joy and anticipation deep in her heart.
