Xia Yubing slowly took off the silver mask, first stunned, then heartbroken.

"Zhier!"

This face is really similar to her elder brother, but the scars on the face have been cut into the flesh so deeply in the past 20 years. The wounds must have been deep at that time. What a nightmare for a five-year-old.

Xia Yubing gently caressed Xia Zhi's face with his fingers. The uneven scars were like ravines, which were the grievances experienced by members of the Xia family.

"Auntie!" Xia Zhi was like a child, leaning in Xia Yubing's arms, crying heartily.

This cry has accumulated for 20 years.

"Cry, cry well, for your parents and grandparents to be buried." Xia Yubing patted Xia Zhi's back and said softly.

"I'll go to Chu one day later to see if I can make some more effective medicine for removing scars. Auntie will find a way to let you face everyone in an open and aboveboard manner," Xia Yubing said.

Xia Zhi's injury was serious, the sword had hit his bone, and after 20 years without treatment, it must be difficult to recover.

"Even with these scars, you are still an indomitable son of my Xia family. Revenge depends on courage and ability, not just skin." Xia Yubing persuaded.

"I know." Xia Zhi stopped crying and wiped away his tears.

He knows this truth, but he just can't ignore his face. When he was a child, others would make a fuss and avoid him when they saw him. Later, he found someone to make a silver mask and put it on. No longer look at him with that kind of strange eyes, especially when he is flying high in the sky with an eagle, he is called the Eagle King, which makes him proud.

But when his silver face is removed, he can't help feeling inferior. A person who can't show his face normally in front of the world will always live in darkness.He didn't have the courage to wander around and despise the crowd like his master Skull.

Especially during the days when he met Lin Xiner and trapped Lin Xiner in Qixing Mountain, he was even more afraid of being seen by Lin Xiner. The reaction is to run away.

"Take the medicine quickly."

After a lot of recognition, Xia Yubing finally remembered to let Xia Zhi take medicine.

Xia Zhi took the medicine and put on the mask, and his energy improved a lot.

"I'll go find something to eat." Xia Zhi stood up.

"Can you survive the arrow wound?" Xia Yubing asked.

Xia Zhi looked down at the two holes poked in his waist and thigh. The two arrows had been pulled out halfway, but fortunately they did not hurt the vitals.

"It's okay, I can still hold on, but you, aunt..." Xia Zhi looked at Xia Yubing's pale lips, very worried.

He knew that there was poison in Xia Yubing's body, but there was nothing he could do about the poison, even if it was a simple poison. He was injured and physically weak, so he didn't have the energy to help her force the poison.

"I can persist, we are all destined." Xia Yubing said.

As long as she doesn't die at the hands of Ximen's family, she still has a chance.

Xia Zhi dug some wild roots and stems that could be roasted and eaten in the mountains to fill his stomach, and then the two of them rested for a few hours, and set off on the road again before dawn.

After bumping all the way to Yuting Pass, Yuting Pass was the place where the Xia family was allotted back then, and the Xia family was robbed and killed on another road.

"I never thought I'd be at Yuting Pass now." Xia Zhi sighed.

If he walked the same path that he had walked before, he could still pay homage to the Xia family.

Xia Yubing looked at the snow-capped mountains in the distance and said, "Let's rush to the foot of the snow-capped mountains as soon as possible."

Xia Zhi rode his horse and ran to the snow mountain with Xia Yubing.

It was winter, and the snow-capped mountains became even colder, and the two of them shivered uncontrollably.

Xia Yubing took out a small firework from his body, lit it, a cluster of red flames shot straight into the sky, scattered a red flower and fell.

"I hope they have good eyesight and can see." Xia Yubing said.

Fortunately, she carried Wu Mohai's signal with her. Although Wu Mohai was severely injured, the dark lines he had left in various places before were still there, and they could be used at this time.

Xia Yubing knew that Wu Mohai had come to Yutingguan to investigate the Xia family's traces as an emissary of the magic sound, and had also placed his people here, hoping to use these people to help her escape back to Yuehua Kingdom.

Sure enough, not long after, someone came with the red fireworks, dressed as nomads at the foot of the snow mountain.

"This is your master's token." Xia Yubing showed a token of the magic voice messenger to the visitor.

"That's right, it belongs to the Lord." The leader looked carefully and nodded.

"You two come with us." The man returned the token to Xia Yubing, and then led the way forward.

Xia Zhice followed immediately, his eyes following the leader.

"We'll be safe if someone takes care of us, and we can adapt to the situation in the future." Xia Yubing instructed Xia Zhi softly.

She knew that it was a very long line to go through the Hu country, bypass the Northern Border Alliance, and then return to the Yuehua country through the Western Regions.However, the situation in the Qingyuan Dynasty was very tight, and because of Wu Mozheng's incident, the atmosphere between Yuehua Kingdom and Yuehua Kingdom became tense. It would be quite difficult for her to return through the Qingyuan Dynasty, and it would be safer to take a long way.

As for the poison on her body, since it can be forced out by Ximenhen, and it can be delayed for so long, it means that it is not a serious poison, and she is not afraid, there is no antidote, and it will be done after her internal injuries are healed.

Xia Zhi nodded silently as a response.

In the capital, a few days passed, and it became much calmer. Ximen Jinglie had already been buried. After the previous funeral, there were many people in the city who doubted the authenticity of this funeral. But how can outsiders tell clearly about the official family affairs ?

Ximenhen started to prepare for his enthronement. These days, the ministers also saw a different second prince. All the affairs in the palace were handled in an orderly manner. He was able to meet the envoys from various countries with ease, without losing the demeanor of the Qingyuan Dynasty. Several envoys who tried to take advantage of Ximen Jinglie's death to make things difficult were obedient.

Those envoys thought that the old emperor's two sons were more useless than the other, but they didn't expect that the second prince who was in danger was extremely difficult to deal with. Not only did they not take the opportunity to get half a penny for their country, but they were also bitten by Ximenhen. A sum of money was raised, especially for the newly defeated Northern Xinjiang Alliance vassal state, Ximen Hen took out the disastrous defeat of the war, and had a relationship with Shuiyue Palace, and was severely blackmailed.

These envoys all had big heads, worrying about how to go back and explain to their king.And the entourage of Wu Mozheng who was detained was even more afraid. The posture of the Qingyuan Dynasty was that if they were not careful, they would lead the army to attack the Yuehua Kingdom.

It is actually impossible to go straight to Yuehua Nation. Ximenhen also knows his own national strength. He has just established his dynasty for decades, and there have been civil strife one after another. A subordinate state is still necessary.
