The Miracle Doctor's Two-Faced Toddler
Chapter 480 - 480 Resentful Xiaobao (2)480 Resentful Xiaobao (2)
They had more or less heard about Gu Elder’s test. One would use Gu techniques in a passageway filled with poisonous Gu. The further one went, the more powerful the poisonous Gu was. Ordinary people could walk thirty to forty feet. Seventy feet was really not something that ordinary people could walk. They naturally did not believe in the saying of the Gu God’s blessing because they knew what was going on better than anyone.
Yu Wan held the holy artifact of Nanzhao in her hand. The little fellows had interacted with Yu Wan for a long time and were most likely tainted by the aura of the holy artifact. The Gu Masters could not sense this aura, but it was impossible for Gu worms not to sense it. It would be strange if they dared to approach the three of them.
Since they had the identity of Gu Elder, the plan could be changed. Originally, they planned to wait for the Queen Manor to snatch the snow toad first before stealing it from them. Although this was a method, there was a lot of uncertainty. If the Queen Manor hid the thing tightly and they could not find it, or if the snow toad had already recognized them as its master before they arrived, their efforts would be in vain.
Old Cui went to Old Madam’s courtyard to guard the unconscious Yan Jiuchao. Yu Wan, Jiang Hai, and Ah Wei sat in the old man’s room and discussed the next big plan.
Yu Wan looked at the old man and said, “Grandma, with the Gu Elder jade token, can we also enter Gu Mountain?”
The old man nodded. “It’s not that simple. Gu Mountain is a forbidden area of Nanzhao. Like Gu Hall, non-Gu Masters are not allowed to approach.”
Yu Wan seemed to have an epiphany. “Grandma, you mean only Ah Wei and the others can go?”
This would not do. Not to mention that she could not bear to let the little fellows take the risk, she was also worried about throwing Ah Wei into the mountains alone. They were not the only ones who had designs on the snow toad. There was also the Queen Manor. If they encountered the people from the Queen Manor, Ah Wei would be in danger. If she had to bet Ah Wei’s life, she would rather go to the Queen Manor to steal it.
The old man thought for a while. “Unless… we have a way to hide it.” This meant that he was going to pretend to be a Gu Master.
Everyone looked at Ah Wei in unison. Ah Wei suddenly had an ominous feeling.
The old man said, “Pack up. I’ll come back later with a few more jade tokens.”
Ah Wei, who was mercilessly enslaved on the first day of reunion: “…”
After the conversation ended, Qing Yan led Ah Wei to look for different Gu Master guilds while Yu Wan returned to the Old Madam’s courtyard.
The three little fellows were not around, so Old Madam brought them to the pavilion to learn how to play leaf cards. Old Madam felt that the triplets were really good. From now on, they can play cards without any problems!
Yu Wan went to Yan Jiuchao and her room. Old Cui had fallen asleep on the table. Yu Wan came to the bed and realized that Yan Jiuchao, who should have been lying on the bed, had gone somewhere.
Yu Wan woke Old Cui up. “Where’s Yan Jiuchao?”
Old Cui rubbed his eyes and looked confused. “Wasn’t he lying there?”
“See for yourself,” Yu Wan said.
Old Cui looked over and was dumbfounded. “Eh? He was there just now. I didn’t nap for long…”
Yu Wan narrowed her eyes at him. “Do you remember how long you slept?”
Old Cui said guiltily, “Ahem, that’s true. But he’s already an adult. He won’t get lost. Ask the maidservants in the courtyard. Someone should see him!”
Yu Wan asked a maidservant who was trimming flowers in the courtyard, “Have you seen Young Master?”
The maidservant bowed and said, “Young Madam, I saw him. Young Master just went out. He said that he’s taking a stroll alone and didn’t let us follow.”
Yu Wan nodded and asked her, “In which direction?”
“Over there.” The maidservant pointed to the back door of the East Manor.
Yu Wan went to the back door.
Yan Jiuchao did not deliberately avoid anyone. He just wanted to come out and take a walk after sleeping for a long time. Unexpectedly, he slipped out of the manor while strolling. Therefore, they were indeed father and son. Even their ability to stroll was surprisingly the same.
The only difference was that Yan Jiuchao remembered the way home, but he was not in a hurry to go back now. He shuttled through the alleys. At first, there were deep mansions all around. After walking for a while and entering the business district, he saw rows of shops and busy streets.
Yan Jiuchao stopped in his tracks when he heard the commotion. He suddenly heard someone shouting for candied hawthorn and walked over.
The candied hawthorn in Nanzhao was not inserted on a wooden stick, but placed on a tray. There were more types than in the Great Zhou. Other than rock sugar hawthorn, there were also rock sugar oranges, rock sugar dates, rock sugar grapes, rock sugar yams…
“Young Master, my candied hawthorn is the cleanest and most delicious! Look at this bunch…” The vendor picked up a rock sugar grape with a smile.
Yan Jiuchao said in disdain, “It’s too ugly. I don’t want it!”
The vendor : “…”
Yan Jiuchao chose seriously. He rarely bought things himself, but as long as he bought them, he would choose them carefully. He was picking when a wide carriage stopped opposite the street. His back was facing the carriage, so he didn’t notice anything, but he suddenly heard a familiar voice. “Father, wait for me here. I’ll go see if the rouge I ordered for Mother is ready.”
It was the Little Commandery Princess of the Crown Princess Manor.
Father, she said. Yan Jiuchao’s hand that was holding a stick of rock sugar dates suddenly paused.
The vendor asked, “Young Master, do you want to buy this bunch? Ten copper coins!”
The Little Commandery Princess jumped off the carriage and went to the rouge shop. Yan Jiuchao threw down the rock sugar date in his hand and turned to walk towards the carriage.
The vendor was dumbfounded. “Hey! Young Master, you don’t want it anymore?”
Yan Jiuchao’s entire body was filled with a huge killing intent. He stepped on the sedan chair and boarded the carriage without any care.
“Who are you?” The coachman was stunned by this sudden scene. Before he could stop him, Yan Jiuchao had already lifted the curtain.
Yan Jiuchao looked at the Prince Consort in the carriage, and the Prince Consort also looked at him.
