Chapter 27 The soul returns to the underground tomb
Jiang Sushang and the others did not have any tools to hold water, and they had no food. What was even more terrifying was that they did not know the direction of Guazhou County.

Hokuriku drew a route on the ground with his fingers. Lanshi's map had taken the wrong route, so the three-day journey turned into more than ten days.

Hokuriku knew the way, and he planned the most suitable way, but the three-day journey relied on camels. If he walked, it would probably take a lot of time.

"Drink enough water and let's hit the road." Hokuriku said.

Jiang Sushang couldn't help but tremble when he heard the word "go on the road". He hoped in his heart that he would never be as acclimatized as before.

After she finished drinking the water, Hokuriku took her hand and headed towards the route he had set.

The desert climate has a large temperature difference between day and night. When winter comes at night, it is twice as hot as midsummer during the day.

Jiang Sushang's stomach was empty and she felt uncomfortable with hunger. Fortunately, she was not acclimatized.She couldn't hold back, she had to get out of the desert.

Her uncles, aunts, father, and brothers all wanted her to be safe. She couldn't let them down, and she couldn't let them give away the white-haired girl to the black-haired girl.

Jiang Sushang fantasized about the delicious food he had at Jiang's house. Thinking this way, his stomach would not feel so uncomfortable.

But being hot, thirsty and hungry made Jiang Sushang very uncomfortable.

Above his head was the scorching sun that made people dizzy, and in the distance was the desert with no end in sight. The psychological defense line built by Jiang Sushang became completely defeated.

Hokuriku looked calm on the surface, but inside he was extremely worried. Did he remember the wrong way or the wrong location? He clearly remembered that there was a water source nearby.

In the blink of an eye, he saw Jiang Sushang's chapped lips, the blood that flowed out had been dried and formed a thin layer of scab, and his heart seemed to be bleeding.

Jiang Sushang grew up being held in the palm of her hand. She could have lived a life of peace and happiness despite suffering such pain, but she blamed herself for coming to such a difficult place to suffer in order to keep him alive.

Jiang Sushang noticed Beilu's hot eyes and knew what he was thinking, so he smiled: "Xiaolang, I'm fine. Look how good I am. I'm not as sick as last time. I can still walk." .”

At the other end, Qianjin Pavilion, underground tomb.

The Poison Fairy Lady takes the medicine she developed, and she will leave with a smile in her sweet dream.

Lan Shi arrived a step late. She cried and begged Lady Poison Fairy not to die. Without her master, she only had Lady Poison Fairy.

Lady Poison Fairy closed her eyes and confessed: "Lan'er, you are the pride of me and the old man. You keep those medicines, poisons, and antidotes. The book I gave you especially is my life's hard work. Keep it going. Lan'er! You must be well and happy."

"Mom, don't leave me." Lan Shi knew in her heart that Lady Poison Fairy was determined to die. She could not save Lady Poison Fairy who treated her like a family member. Lan Shi hugged Lady Poison Fairy and asked her to accompany her mother until the end. Give it some time!

"The Gu worms in the amulet before and the Gu worms this time are both from the Qielan tribe. You promise me, that place is extremely dangerous and you must not go there."

"I promise mom, I won't go, I won't go."

"Never, never go!" Lady Poison Fairy was still worried about Lan Shi before she died.

Slowly, she saw her two children running towards her, calling her with a smile: Mother.

Her husband looked at her with a smile. She thought it was a lie, so she chased him and came to a meadow. She was having fun with her children, her husband was laughing, and the whole family was enjoying themselves.

This is not a dream, it is real.

Lady Poison Fairy passed away with a smile on her face, no longer alive in Lan Shi's arms.

Lan Shi hugged Mrs. Poison Fairy and didn't let go. It wasn't until someone came in that she realized her sadness.Osmanthus looked at Lan Shi and knew who Lan Shi was?
She had delivered meals to Mrs. Poison Fairy before and listened to Mrs. Poison Fairy's talk about her daily life. Mrs. Poison Fairy said that she had a very powerful daughter, but the daughter left with her father.

Osmanthus saw Lan Shi so sad and guessed Lan Shi's identity.

"Hand it over!" Osmanthus said in a short sentence.

Lan Shi was wary of Broken Arm Osmanthus and asked, "What do you want?"

"The Lady Poison Fairy has written a book on medicine and poison, please give it to me."

"So Juhua is not the mastermind, you are."

"Of course I'm not. Juhua has a smart mind, and I can't compare to her in planning. All I want is the book by Lady Poison Fairy. Hand it over and I'll spare your life." Osmanthus holds a sword in her left hand, but it's just her dominant hand. It's the right hand, and I'm not familiar with holding a sword in my left hand.

Lan Shi walked to a shelf with medicine bottles. Osmanthus thought she was going to get a book, so she relaxed her vigilance.

The next moment, Lan Shi threw a bottle of medicine on Guihua. Guihua was caught off guard and fell to the ground. Her body was stiff, like a disabled person, unable to move.

Lan Shi packed all the medicine bottles and carried them on his back, then carried Lady Poison Fairy into the lower tomb.

This tomb is indeed the tomb of the General who conquered the West, but he was not buried here in the burial ground he prepared for himself.What was buried with him was not the gold and silver jewelry that the outside world thought, but the memorial tablets he carved for his comrades who followed him and died on the battlefield.

Lan Shi put Lady Poison Fairy into the small coffin next to the central coffin. There was no general in the large coffin. This was the general's grave. She felt guilty and bowed to the spiritual tablets that filled the room.

"My fellow soldiers, Lan Shi bowed his head immediately." Lan Shi kowtowed three times.

There are many traps here, presumably set up by the General Zhengxi, but when he was a child, his master had brought her in, and she was able to avoid these traps.

Master once said: "If we don't die, we will guard the general's tomb. After we die, we will rest here forever."

She smiled and said to her master: "Then I will also guard these heroic spirits from now on."

After all, she broke her promise. She was going to accompany Jiang Sushang to promote the pediatric cough medicine developed by her mother.

Lan Shi took out his master's jade pendant from his waist and placed it next to Lady Poison Fairy.

This can be regarded as fulfilling the wish of Master and Poison Fairy Lady to die in the same cave!

Osmanthus couldn't move outside, hoping that the other sisters would find her, but when Lan Shi came out, her sisters didn't find her either.

"Do you think there is something inside? In fact, they are just wooden signs. They are the souls of the soldiers who accompanied the general through life and death. There are no so-called gold, silver and jewelry."

"If you want to go in and disturb the rest of the heroes' souls, you will pay a price. The trap inside was set by a country's general. No one can get in alive."

Of course, except for gravekeepers like Master and Master.

The only pity is that the general died of illness in Chang'an City and was buried next to the imperial mausoleum. He could not be buried in his hometown of Guazhou or share the same cave with the dead soldiers.

Osmanthus was stunned for a moment. She remembered that her father was also a soldier of the general and died on the battlefield.

Guihua thought that His Highness had given her three tasks, but she had not completed any of them. How should she explain it?
Lan Shi dropped the antidote and left.
