Treasure identifying Golden Finger

3Faang Cheng felt that there was nothing wrong with what Yuan Yue said, but he wasn't sure what she meant, so he looked at her strangely.    

    

"That's right, so what?"    

    

Faang Cheng asked.    

    

"People who are bewitched are normal at first, but then they gradually lose control of their emotions and behavior, and they become more and more irritable and crazy, and then... their behavior becomes completely out of control, so to speak, and they do anything. So... Zhu Yuehua had already been in a state of agitation before Sister Yuting arrived."    

    

Yuan Yue couldn't help but pause.    

    

"Hey, with Zhu Yuehua's current condition, do you think those people he put under house arrest will be in any danger?"    

    

Yuan Yue finally got to the point.    

    

After hearing his words, Faang Cheng could not help but be slightly taken aback. He immediately stood up and looked at Yuan Yue with a serious expression.    

    

"You mean..."    

    

"Yes, I'm worried. If that Zhu Yuehua really was poisoned, then his current state should be extremely unstable. So those people he kept under house arrest might be in danger at any time."    

    

Yuan Yue nodded at Faang Cheng.    

    

"I mean, should we leave earlier? The earlier we arrive, the less serious this matter will be. At the same time, the people under house arrest will also be safer."    

    

She was analyzing.    

    

When Faang Cheng heard her words, he lowered his head and thought for a moment. Then, he raised his head and walked towards the door as he spoke to Yuan Yue.    

    

"Moon, get ready. We'll leave tonight. I'll go talk to Yu Yang and tell Wen Liang to prepare a carriage. We'll pass by the Witch Gu Branch later and pick up Senior Gu King."    

    

It was obvious that Faang Cheng also realized that this matter could escalate, so he immediately decided to leave for Fringe City ahead of time, afraid that something worse would happen that the Qian siblings would not be able to accept.    

    

"Alright, I understand!"    

    

Yuan Yue nodded and quickly started packing up her and Faang Cheng's belongings.    

    

After leaving the house, Faang Cheng went straight to Qian Yuyang's room. Originally, Qian Yuyang had been unable to fall asleep due to the sudden arrival of his sister today. When he heard Faang Cheng's knock on the door, he immediately opened it.    

    

"What's wrong?"    

    

Seeing how Faang Cheng came to find him so late at night, Qian Yuyang immediately realized what had happened and asked in a hurry.    

    

"We need to leave early!"    

    

Faang Cheng said calmly, and then... He told Qian Yuyang about his discussion with Yuan Yue. Qian Yuyang immediately understood and started to pack his things. He took his sword and a small bag that he had prepared beforehand and was about to follow Faang Cheng.    

    

"You must have prepared everything beforehand!"    

    

Faang Cheng nodded helplessly and brought him to Wen Liang to settle the matter of the carriage.    

    

Wen Liang was also woken up in a daze. When he heard Faang Cheng say that they were going to prepare a carriage and leave immediately, he could not help but feel a little surprised. But he knew better than to ask what it was, and went out at once to the stable at the back door of the house, where he got a carriage, put on the harness, and was soon ready.    

    

"Big Brother Faang, the carriage is ready, but... there's no driver! Otherwise... I'll be the driver and follow you!"    

    

Wen Liang had made up his mind that he would follow his father if it came down to it. After all, he had driven a lot when he was at home, and he had worked in the fields with his father since he was a child.    

    

"No need. Yuyang and I will take turns to drive the carriages. The border city is not far anyway. And this time, it's an urgent matter. We don't have time to sightsee or rest on the way, so we don't need a driver."    

    

Faang Cheng shook his head and patted Wen Liang on the shoulder.    

    

"Alright, let's go back and sleep. We'll be leaving now!"    

    

As Faang Cheng spoke, he saw Yuan Yue walking towards the back door with a small bag in her hand. In any case, she would only be gone for two days at most. There was really no need for her to bring too many things with her.    

    

"She's here!"    

    

Faang Cheng called out to Yuan Yue.    

    

"Alright, let's go. We still have to pick up the old man!"    

    

The old man was indeed the Gu King. They had planned to leave tomorrow morning, and the Gu King should be asleep by now.    

    

The carriage left through the back door of the Fang Residence, driven by Qian Yuyang. He and Faang Cheng had agreed to drive for four hours each, and it was estimated that they would arrive at Fringe City after another round trip. The reason why they were so fast was that they would apply Spirit Power to the horses while driving them, making them run faster.    

    

Witch Parasite Branch.    

    

The gate of the academy was tightly locked, and it was quiet inside. Faang Cheng felt that if he were to knock on the door at this moment, he would probably cause a ruckus among the students and other teachers. Thus, Qian Yuyang decided to sneak into the Witch Gu Branch and call Senior Gu King out. However, he was stopped by Yuan Yue.    

    

"There are hidden guards in the academy. Although they might not be your match, it's still possible for them to find you. So... if you guys start fighting, it will still wake up a lot of people. It would be better to just call for someone to open the door!"    

    

Yuan Yue said.    

    

Hearing that, Qian Yuyang was silent again. [That is true. But... How are they going to wake the Gu King up?]    

    

"I have a way!"    

    

Yuan Yue looked at Faang Cheng and Qian Yuyang with a smile. Then, she took out the sleeping Crimson-mantled Snake from her bag. The little red snake was looking at Yuan Yue with a listless expression. It squinted its eyes and looked at Yuan Yue with an expression of grievance, as if it were asking, "I was sleeping well, why did you wake me up?"    

    

"Xiao Hong, I didn't mean to wake you up, but I have urgent matters to discuss with the Gu King. Go into the Witch Gu Branch and find your previous master, then let him out."    

    

Yuan Yue explained her request like she was communicating with a child.    

    

After hearing what her master said, the little snake immediately became spirited up. It knew that its master had something important for it to do. So after Yuan Yue said these words, the little red snake immediately nodded its triangular head, then turned around and slipped into the Witch Gu Branch, looking for the Gu King's room.    

    

In about the time it took to make half a cup of tea, the door of the Witch Gu Branch was opened, and the Gu King walked out with a little red-backed snake on his left arm.
