The Doctor’s Three-Time Marriage - #476 - Just waiting for Moyan
When Gu Ling left the cave, he found that the originally clear sky was overcast, the wind had picked up, and a thunderstorm was approaching. New𝟔𝟗Book Bar𝟨𝟫ˢʰᵘˣ.ᶜᵒᵐ
This is not a good thing for people who want to leave Xingluo Island as soon as possible, but the people building boats on the coast are still busy at this moment, and most people have packed their luggage and are just waiting to hit the road.
Gu Ling secretly left the forbidden area without being discovered by the two elders guarding the forbidden area. He came to the City Lord’s Mansion last year to save people, and before that, he was very familiar with the distribution of buildings on the island due to the information provided by Min Rou. He quickly found the place where he had arranged to meet with Feng Ming.
This is the garden of the city lord’s palace. There is a lake as green as a gem. It is not big, but the scenery is extremely beautiful. There is a three-story octagonal pavilion beside the lake. Mo Yan designed it himself and hired someone to build it. The highest floor of the pavilion. It is the place with the best view on Xingluo Island, and it is quite hidden, surrounded by many tall trees.
At this moment, people on the island are in panic. The smartest ones have already run away first. Those who are slow to react and cannot grab the boat are trying their best to escape. Moreover, they are also worried about whether Sheng Yue and the two elders on the other side of the forbidden area will suddenly take action to stop the murder. So on the island People outside the forbidden area are either building ships or hiding and not daring to come out and wander around.
Gu Ling climbed up to the third floor of the Octagonal Pavilion. Feng Ming had lowered the curtains on three sides. Only the curtain facing the forbidden area was half hung, so that he could see the situation in the forbidden area.
Feng Ming was sitting on it. When he saw Gu Ling coming, he immediately stood up and made a gesture to note that only half of the area was safe, and the other half might be seen.
Gu Ling nodded and did not observe the situation on the island. Instead, he sat down and ate the food prepared by Feng Ming.
Feng Ming glanced at the direction of the forbidden area again, then withdrew his gaze and sat down opposite Gu Ling, Has the prince met Sheng Yue? How was it?
See, he wants to cooperate. Gu Ling said.
Does the prince believe him? Feng Ming asked.
Gu Ling shook his head, I don’t believe it. Let’s wait until Mo Yan comes back. Be careful and don’t let anyone in the forbidden area except Sheng Yue discover us.
Feng Ming nodded, Understood. If we kill those two elders, Mo Yan will know that we are here as soon as he comes back. If something goes wrong elsewhere on the island, it won’t be a big problem if everyone is gone. Nothing happens in the forbidden area.
After Gu Ling had almost finished eating, Feng Ming looked at the gloomy weather outside and said, If it rains heavily, it would be safer for Mr. Qiu and the others to go to the island, but then the boat might be discovered.
It’ll be okay. Gu Ling believed that Qiu Cong had lived at sea for many years, and experience was very important.
Where does the prince want to stay at night? Feng Ming asked.
Where is Sheng Yue’s courtyard? Gu Ling asked.
Feng Ming stood up and pointed to a certain location in the city lord’s palace, Over there. Does the prince want to live at Sheng Yue’s place? It’s a good idea. Most people would not think that Sheng Yue would not come out of the forbidden area.
The agreement with Qiu Jing and the others was that they would land on the island in three days, and there would be enough dry food and fresh water on the ship for their use.
Not long after, Gu Ling entered Sheng Yue’s courtyard.
It was deserted here, and there was no one there. Even if there were people walking nearby, they would take a detour, fearing that Sheng Yue would be inside and attack them.
Gu Ling entered Sheng Yue’s room, closed the door, and began to search everywhere in the room.
But after searching, I didn’t find anything valuable. There weren’t many things in Sheng Yue’s house, which was considered simple based on his status on the island.
So, Gu Ling lay down on the bed and took a nap to recharge his batteries.
…
It was already dusk when Gu Ling woke up. It looked like it was going to rain in the afternoon, but then it suddenly cleared up and there was no wind or rain.
Today’s sunset was particularly gorgeous, as if the entire Xingluo Island was covered with a layer of bright red gauze.
Gu Ling stood by the window and looked at the sky outside, sighing inaudibly. He didn’t know whether Su Liang was at home safely or whether he had been arrested by Mo Yan. It was possible. To this day, no matter what kind of situation, he can only face it and try his best to solve the problem.
After a while, Gu Ling left Sheng Yue’s yard and went to the Garden Bajiao Pavilion.
Feng Ming is still there, but he left in the meantime.
Your Majesty, about half of the people on the island have left today. There are still many people who have not left yet. They are waiting for the ship to be built and may leave overnight. Feng Ming had secretly checked all parts of the island a quarter of an hour ago. Checked it out. In this current situation, coupled with the previous events, there are not many people who still choose to stay, but there are very few except in forbidden areas. Leaving Xingluo Island, the world outside is vast, and there may be a future. There is no hope in continuing to follow Mo Yan.
Seeing Gu Ling looking in the direction of the forbidden area, Feng Ming sighed and said, There was a woman who said that her two sons were taken away by Sheng Yue. The family’s boat was built, and the man didn’t plan to take care of the two children anymore. , just wanted to leave. I heard them say from a distance that the child was gone and they should settle down outside and have as many children as they wanted. But the woman refused to leave. They were all dragged into the boat and jumped into the water again, alone. When she came back, the family didn’t care about her anymore. Now she was kneeling outside the forbidden area, crying and begging Sheng Yue to let her son go.
The sky was dark, and from Gu Ling’s position, he could not see or hear the woman crying outside the forbidden door.
Is there anyone looking for my daughter? Gu Ling asked Feng Ming.
Feng Ming sighed again, We found that little girl’s family and they have already left her.
At this time, in the forbidden area, Sheng Yue was eating with two boys, and the little girl fell asleep again.
An elder came in and Sheng Yue asked what was going on. He looked at the two children and motioned to Sheng Yue to talk alone.
Sheng Yue then got up and walked out, but did not go out. He stopped at the exit of the cave.
Mr. Sheng, the father and uncle of those two boys have run away, and mother is crying outside the forbidden area. The elder said.
Sheng Yue looked calm and said, Even if I return my son to her now, mother and son can’t leave. Don’t worry about her. After saying this, he turned around and went back.
When one of the twins saw Sheng Yue coming back, he asked again, Master, can we go home and sleep tonight and come back tomorrow?
Sheng Yue shook his head, No.
The eyes of the two little boys dimmed for a moment, and they held each other’s hands silently, not daring to say another word. After eating, they obediently went to sleep behind the stone screen, where there were bedding.
The mute slave came in, took away the dishes, and brought hot water.
There was no bed for Sheng Yue in the cave, so he sat cross-legged by the pool and closed his eyes to meditate. Facing outside, he could reach the little girl lying on the small bed by raising his hand.
Feng Ming and Gu Ling stayed at the Bajiao Pavilion until midnight, and secretly went to the beach to take a look. There were much fewer people than during the day. There were still people burning lights and building ships, and there were still people carrying luggage waiting to leave.
Based on the current situation, it is expected that after tomorrow, there will be no one on the island except in the forbidden area.
When returning to the city lord’s mansion, Feng Ming asked Gu Ling if he should care about the woman crying outside the forbidden area, It’s cold at night. If this continues, her body won’t be able to bear it.
Do you know him? Gu Ling asked.
Feng Ming nodded, Her name is A Wu, and her real surname seems to be Peng. I have seen her take her two sons to pick mushrooms. We have met her and said hello, so I think we know her.
What did you say her name was? Gu Ling asked again.
After Feng Ming answered again, he saw Gu Ling thinking deeply.
Does the prince know her identity? Feng Ming asked. Most of the women on the island were captured, and some were born on the island, such as Min Rou, but there were only a few. Peng Wu was brought back from outside the island to be his granddaughter-in-law by an elder, but that elder had died in the then capital of Qian Kingdom last year.
Not sure, maybe. Gu Ling said. He had heard that Peng Wei, a veteran of the former Liang Kingdom who had a good relationship with Su Liang, had an eldest granddaughter, Peng Fan’s sister, but she drowned in an accident and her body was unrecognizable when it was found. That was a rumor about seven years ago. Gu Ling had never paid attention to the name of the Miss Peng who died unexpectedly. But the woman named Peng Wu on Xingluo Island had twin sons who were five or six years old. She might be Peng Wei’s deceased granddaughter.
Gu Ling once again thought of the twin boys he saw in the cave during the day. He didn’t pay attention to them at the time, but now that he learned the name Peng Wu, Gu Ling felt that the features of the two children looked a bit like Peng Fan.
Originally, Gu Ling didn’t plan to take action rashly, fearing that people other than Sheng Yue would find out in the forbidden area. He thought that the woman would always go back and die. It was not the time to care about her, and there was no way to get those two people away from Sheng Yue. Bring out a boy.
But since that woman might be Peng Wei’s granddaughter, Gu Ling asked Feng Ming to go there. It’s not because Peng Wei’s granddaughter is more important than other women on the island, but if she comes from a general family, has a strong temperament and can communicate, she won’t cause trouble for them.
As for the people who have left Xingluo Island, Gu Ling will find them to settle matters afterwards, and he will save those who should be saved.
Late at night, the palace of the Lord of Xingluo Island was very quiet, with almost no light.
The door to the forbidden area was locked, and no lantern was hung. Feng Ming approached cautiously and heard hoarse cries.
Feng Ming waited for a while, but saw no movement in the forbidden area, so he quickly stepped forward, pulled Peng Wu up who was sitting on the ground, covered her mouth, and dragged her into the shadows.
It’s me, Feng Ming. Feng Ming said in a low voice.
Peng Wu’s eyes widened in disbelief. They knew each other, and Feng Ming had returned before and became the captain of the Coast Guard, and was imprisoned in a dungeon. He was considered a celebrity on the island.
Peng Wu saw Feng Ming’s face and immediately became quiet.
Feng Ming dragged her away from the forbidden area and ran into the garden, finally stopping at the Octagonal Pavilion.
You’re back again. Is there anyone with you? Peng Wu grabbed Feng Ming’s arm and asked eagerly, Is that Divine Doctor Su here too?
Feng Ming shook his head, No. I have something to ask you, and please answer it truthfully. Did you have a family before you came to the island, right? Where is your home?
Peng Wu has a beautiful appearance, but is very thin and haggard, with red and swollen eyes. When she heard Feng Ming’s question, she pursed her lips and hesitated for a moment. Because after coming to the island, she had never mentioned her life experience to anyone except her real name, and very few people knew her last name. Feng Ming paid special attention to inquire about it. She knew that no one could help her escape. The men on this island were all jackals and tigers, and women were just their possessions. She tried to escape at first, but was caught and beaten badly. Later she had a child and could no longer leave.
But thinking that Feng Ming was considered a traitor on Xingluo Island, Peng Wu still answered his question, My home is in Yaocheng, Liang Kingdom.
Feng Ming then asked, Is your grandfather the old general Peng Wei?
Peng Wu’s eyes widened, How do you know?
I’ll take you to meet someone. Feng Ming said and climbed up the ladder in the center of the pavilion.
Peng Wu hurriedly followed. Due to lack of physical strength, he almost fell down, but he still climbed up.
Gu Ling was on top, but Peng Wu didn’t recognize him and was just shocked by his beauty.
My name is Gu Ling. My wife and your grandfather have been friends for many years. Gu Ling got straight to the point. He heard the conversation between Feng Ming and Peng Wu just now, and Peng Wu’s appearance was quite similar to Peng Fan’s aunt that Gu Ling had met.
Peng Wu was stunned. She fantasizes about leaving this devil’s cave day and night, but all she gets is disappointment day after day, because when the accident happened, she watched with her own eyes as the person who captured her faked her death. Her clothes, everything with identification, were taken away and placed on another person. Over the years, Peng Wu was heartbroken when he thought that her family thought she was dead and would not look for her at all. But sometimes she felt that her family really thought that her death would be a good thing, and not seeing her alive or dead would be even more torture for them.
Your brother’s name is Peng Fan, and your father’s name is Peng Qian. Gu Ling said.
Yes! My father… Peng Wu burst into tears instantly. She remembered that her father had always been in poor health, and she didn’t know if Peng Qian was still alive.
Your grandfather, your parents, and your brother are all still alive. Gu Ling looked calm, Your father’s illness was cured by my wife.
Peng Wu was shocked by the huge surprise and relaxed for a moment. She couldn’t stand and almost fell to the ground. Feng Ming grabbed her and helped her sit down.
Thank you… thank you… please, save my sons! They are only six years old! Peng Wu knelt down to Gu Ling again.
Gu Ling glanced in the direction of the forbidden area and said, I saw your two sons today. They are fine. They are just controlled by Sheng Yue. I cannot bring them out for the time being.
Have you seen them? Are they really okay? Peng Wu cried with joy.
I will try my best to take you away from Xingluo Island and send you home. Before that, you need to take care of yourself and don’t do unnecessary things. Gu Ling looked at Peng Wu and said.
Peng Wu nodded repeatedly, I understand, I can’t save the child, I can only rely on you. I won’t cause trouble! Don’t worry!
Send her back to where she lives. Gu Ling ordered Feng Ming.
Peng Wu insisted on kneeling down and kowtowed to Gu Ling before being led away by Feng Ming.
Feng Ming sent Peng Wu back to her residence on the island, which was an independent house outside the city lord’s palace. Everyone else had run away, and she was the only one left.
That’s the rumored Gu Meiren, right? I’ve heard of him since I was a child. Peng Wu felt a little more relaxed, He and Doctor Su are both great benefactors to our family.
Feng Ming asked Peng Wu to eat something and then go to bed, and then stay here. He could wander near the forbidden area during the day and then come back to avoid arousing suspicion.
I understand what you mean, I will be careful. You should also be more careful! Peng Wu looked grateful.
…
Except when Gu Ling went to see Sheng Yue on the first day on the island, the two did not meet each other for two consecutive days. Sheng Yue always guarded the forbidden area, while Gu Ling wandered around the island and watched as there were fewer and fewer people.
By the third day, the only people left on the island were those in the forbidden area, Peng Wu who refused to leave for the sake of his son, and Gu Ling and his party in the dark.
Qiu Jing and the others went to the island at the planned time and hid the boat in a cave under the cliff that Feng Ming told them. Not many people know this place, and most of them have left. Feng Ming received them and took them to see Gu Ling.
Knowing that Gu Ling found Peng Wei’s granddaughter who died many years ago on the island, and that Peng Wei also had two great-grandchildren in the hands of Sheng Yue, Qiu Jing couldn’t help but sigh, It’s a good thing, but it’s best not to let Mo Yan and Sheng Yue The more we know that their mother and son are related to us. As of now, we are just waiting for Mo Yan to come back.
