Chapter 235 Dongyang Palace



Chapter 235 Dongyang Palace

Now, there is no time to be distracted, epidemic control is the top priority.

Zhou Chang shook Wen Qingyan's face away from his sight, and heard Yun Hezi say on the other side: "Brother, go back first. I have guests here. I will send them to you later when I have some free time."

The dark green Taoist remained motionless. Even through the veil, one could sense that he was still there. He did not even lift his eyelids. “Junior brother, if you have this skill, the people have already been found.”

Yun Hezi had obviously anticipated his senior brother's attitude, and his smile remained on his face. But when he looked around, he found that one of the two Taoist boys beside him had gone to entertain Zhou Chang's entourage, and the other had just been assigned to prepare vegetarian meals, so there was no one available.

In addition, since Zhou Chang was a prince, he could not ignore him and could only smile: "Brother, please wait a moment. We are short of manpower at this moment and no one is available. Wait a moment..."

At this moment, the Taoist boy brought a large plate full of four kinds of pastries.

"Hmph..." Taoist Dark Green snorted coldly when he saw this, "If there are people to entertain these playboys, don't you have people to lend to me? Junior brother, these playboys..."

When the wind blew, the veil was lifted up, and Zhou Chang was seen at a glance, his eyes shining.

Zhou Chang shuddered all over, as if a cold spring of ice was pouring down from his head.

Senior brother?

Could this person be Yun Huazi?

Yun Hezi was afraid that Taoist Dark Green would say something extreme: "Brother, please don't be upset. Please go back first. I will send the person you want later."

"Forget it. It's already past noon and I forgot something important..." The dark green Taoist said as he brushed off his clothes. The white lotus bud on his front seemed to sway with the dark green water. "I'm leaving first. You should keep it in mind."

"Yes..." Yun Hezi bowed, with a tone of coaxing a child in his voice.

The dark green Taoist's back, that long robe is actually a single piece of clothing, fluttering in the cold wind, flying away like a willow leaf.

Zhou Chang suddenly realized, this Taoist priest actually didn't feel cold?

Zhong Yu stood up and ran to the door, asking Yun Hezi, "Master, was that Taoist Master Yun Huazi?"

"That's right, but..." Yun Hezi did not hide it.

"Hey, Taoist priest, why didn't you say so earlier?" Zhou Chang didn't want to hear what came after the "but" anymore, so he rushed out. Just then, Shou Hou and Gao Yuan came out of the next room and hurriedly said, "Mr. Zhong, wait a minute, we'll go first. Gao Yuan, Hou Zi, follow me."

When she said the second half of the sentence, she was several steps away.

Shouhou and Gao Yuan followed immediately.

Yun Hezi couldn't stop him from behind: "Your Highness Prince Yi, wait a minute..."

"Didn't the Taoist priest say that your senior brother wouldn't easily see people?" Zhou Chang kept walking and threw out a sentence without caring whether the other party could hear it clearly.

"Your Highness Prince Yi, please stay. Senior brother will not see you..." Yun Hezi was about to chase out, but was stopped by Zhong Yu again.

"Host, His Royal Highness Prince Yi is not doing this for personal gain, he is doing this purely for the country and the people. You should help persuade him." Zhong Yu held the man tightly.

Zhou Chang chased after him with all her might, but she could only see the figure in front of her getting farther and farther away. She was already out of breath and could only count on Gao Yuan: "Gao Yuan, catch up with the Taoist priest in front."

"Yes." Gao Yuan said nothing and ran over Zhou Chang.

The skinny monkey supported Zhou Chang who had stopped breathing, and also panted: "Your Majesty, is that the person we are looking for?"

Without waiting for an answer, when Zhou Chang raised his head, Yun Huazi's figure had disappeared. He could only barely see Gao Yuan's back, which was getting farther and farther away.

"Let's go, let's try to keep up." Zhou Chang didn't actually run very far, but he was already grimacing with exhaustion.

"Your Highness, why don't you take a rest? Mr. Zhong and the host will catch up soon. Just wait for them." Although the skinny monkey was fat, he had always been stronger than Prince Yi Fengming. His breath had recovered while he was speaking.

Zhou Chang, on the other hand, had his chest still rising and falling violently, but he wanted to make a concerted effort: "No, let's go. Mr. Zhong can't keep up with us at this pace."

"Okay, Your Highness, please slow down." The skinny monkey didn't say much. He supported Zhou Chang and quickened his pace.

On the Xishan mountain road, five people, front and back, were divided into three teams and headed eastward.

Zhou Chang had long lost sight of the figure in the dark green Taoist robe, and then he also lost sight of Gao Yuan. When he turned around again, he had already left Zhong Yu and Yun Hezi behind.

In the end, I had to ask the Taoist priests of Chaotian Temple along the way before I could climb up the mountain on the east side of Chaotian Temple.

Zhou Chang was willing but not physically able, so he had to slow down. Finally, with the help of the skinny monkey, he was able to climb the seemingly endless stairs one step at a time.

"Ah, Your Majesty, Brother Gao is back..." The skinny man carried Zhou Chang and took most of her weight on himself.

Zhou Chang didn't have the energy to speak any more, so he raised his heavy head and looked over.

Gao Yuan was walking down the stairs towards her, his steps relaxed and without a trace of fatigue.

Behind him, the top of the eastern peak was faintly visible, with a low and dilapidated pavilion on top.

"It seems there are still quite a few people ahead." The skinny monkey said as he gave Zhou Chang a push, sweating all over his forehead. "Your Highness, we are almost there. Should we stop and take a rest? We have climbed two mountains today."

Zhou Chang shook his head and vaguely heard some chattering coming from the top of the mountain, the sound of at least dozens of people talking.

Gao Yuan came closer in two or three steps and bowed to report: "Your Majesty, the Taoist went into the backyard of the upper hall. I couldn't just force my way in, so I waited outside for a while, but he didn't come out. However, there are many local people here seeking medical treatment and medicine, and the medicine is still being boiled in the backyard, so he must not be able to escape."

"Okay..." Zhou Chang didn't have the strength to speak, even if he could save a word. His legs were out of control and he insisted on taking steps to climb up.

Walking up the stone steps step by step, I saw the palace in front of me with a plaque with the words "Dongyang Palace" inscribed on it.

The Dongyang Palace is far inferior to the main palace of Chaotian Temple on the main peak of West Mountain, but the front of the palace is filled with people who come to seek medical treatment and medicine.

Zhou Chang straightened his back and took a deep breath when he heard the people queuing in the hall whispering, "Where's the Taoist priest? Why hasn't he come yet? Didn't he just go in?"

"Gao Yuan, let's go in." Zhou Chang took two breaths and didn't want to wait any longer.

Gao Yuan stepped forward, pushed aside the crowd and led the way.

With the help of the skinny monkey, Zhou Chang went straight to the front of the palace gate, where a wave of heat hit him in the face.

There was a charcoal fire in the hall and many people were crowded inside. It was warm like spring, a far cry from the ice and snow outside.

Zhou Chang stepped into the hall, and was greeted by a statue of a deity. Its paint had peeled off over the years, and its appearance could not be discerned. However, the altar was filled with incense, candles, and other offerings.

She didn't know who the statue was, and she didn't bother to take a closer look.

In the hall, the sounds of groaning of the sick and coughing and wheezing came one after another.

"Where are the people?" Zhou Chang asked anxiously.

Gao Yuan pointed back and said, "My Lord, here, follow me."
