"I went to Wenger's study. Well, now I turned around again and went to the atrium of Wenger's courtyard. ”

She followed Changtian's instructions and turned around in the house. Now that this appearance is Baozhu's, she puts on an arrogant and indifferent appearance, and others will naturally stay away.

It's just that when she walked around the outside of a bamboo bush, someone stood in front of her, and said with a smile: "Sister Baozhu, why did you come? "Look closely, who is the little guy in Tsing Yi who is not?

Mo said that Changtian wanted to pinch him, and even Ning Xiaoxian's eyes jumped. But this guy said affectionately: "I found a good place in the house today, and I don't know ...... people in charge" said as he leaned over his paws, trying to hold her little hand.

Ning Xiaoxian shook his body to avoid this pull, covered his mouth and smiled at him: "What are you anxious about? "I walked into the bamboo forest first.

Although her face is still the appearance of a jewel, a pair of wonderful eyes can be described as a wave of eyes, looking forward to conveying affection, especially the glance when she turned around, which made this man god-endowed with his soul, and followed him without hesitation.

And then...... There is no then. He also thought that the "Treasure Jewel" was going to be a good thing with him here, and he was about to pounce on it, but the other party's smiling face suddenly retracted, and a palm slashed over. Before he could react, he received a slap knife in the back of his neck and was directly knocked unconscious.

Phew, I've wanted to do this for a long time! Ning Xiaoxian clapped his hands, and then he felt relieved.

Dealing with this trouble, she then walked smoothly to the small courtyard of Lord Wen, and found the rockery in the corner of the courtyard according to Changtian's instructions.

She tapped the rockery three times with the handle of the fanged knife, and then listened to Changtian's words: "The small pavilion placed in the upper left corner of the rockery, yes, it's it, rotate to the left and then pull it out." "The opening of this mechanism is so complicated, is it to prevent children from accidentally opening the secret passage while playing in the courtyard?

She did as she was told. I only heard a very small sound of "clang", and when I turned around, I saw that a hole had been cracked in the ground. The entrance to the cave is usually covered with an iron plate, first covered with a layer of sand, and then planted with a layer of turf, which looks very deceptive.

She dived in gently, and after a few breaths, the hole closed automatically. Fortunately, she didn't have claustrophobia, otherwise she wouldn't have been scared to death walking alone in this cave where she couldn't see her fingers? Thanks to the fact that she is a woman, she is thin and small, if she changes to a six-foot man to walk through this passage, she is afraid that she will have a blue nose and swollen face?

Changtian said: "Wen Liangyu was also surprised when he saw this cave entrance just now, and the surnamed Fan told him that this was an escape secret path cultivated by the former mansion master. The little half-demon laughed at himself, and he usually came here to see his father too rarely. Otherwise, how could it not be discovered?"

"How far have they come?" she asked secretly, only to find out in such a quiet environment. Even the smallest sounds can be heard clearly.

"Twenty feet. Rest assured. There's a stream of water ahead, and they can't hear you. ”

She had only walked a few feet when she heard the sound of gurgling water. There is actually an underground river hidden under the city lord's mansion, and judging by the sound of the water, the amount of water in this river is not small! The first city lord was really good at it, and he was able to accurately build the city lord's mansion directly above the underground river!

She was thinking wildly, but her steps didn't stop. Changtian reminded her: "Slow down your breathing, turn the corner and you'll be there." ”

She crept over. I didn't forget to keep my breath to the lightest. Guiding the way to cultivate into the realm of Dacheng, the human body can form an internal breath, and hold her breath in the water for an hour, she is still several steps away from this realm, but it is easy to make her heartbeat and breathing almost none.

The front suddenly opened up, and it seemed that this passage was connected to a naturally formed karst cave, with a size of about 100 square meters, which was about the same size as a three-bedroom apartment in Huaxia. The ground seems to have been specially polished and smooth, and there are two square stone platforms in the center of the cave. Torches are lit on the walls of the cave to illuminate the cave clearly. What Ning Xiaoxian thought about was that the flames on this wall occasionally danced, and the air here must be flowing. Otherwise, people would have suffocated in it a long time ago.

A small part of this cave is immersed in water, under the light of the fire, there are many shadows under the water, and it seems that there is a cave leading to the distance, no wonder the previous city lords used this place as an escape and emergency passage.

She poked her head out and saw all kinds of people in the cave.

First of all, it is naturally Fan Zhenren and Wen Liangyu. After coming in, Fan Zhenren's eyes were slightly closed, standing by the wall, and Wen Liangyu was placed on the ground, he sat up leaning on the stone platform, his eyes staring at the person in front of him for a moment, and he seemed to be reluctant to blink.

The man in front of him was dressed in a dark robe, and his figure was well-proportioned and long. Although her back was to Ning Xiaoxian, if she couldn't guess who this person was from Wen Liangyu's expression, then she didn't have to come out and mix.

Lord of Rock City, Arsene Wenger.

Alas, she really felt sorry for Wen Liangyu.

Wen Liangyu looked at him steadily, and the emotion in his eyes didn't know whether it was confusion, pain, anger, or sadness. Wenger did not speak, and looked at his son quietly.

After a long time, Wen Liangyu closed his eyes and squeezed out a sentence from his throat: "Why?" These words are not as dry as imagined, but a little confused.

Why did you poison him? Why did you plot to harm him? Why did you want to take his life when you were the dearest father? Why...... He had many, many whys in his mind, but the answer was still important?

Wenger did not say a word, took out the golden basin from the stone wall, took out half a basin of water in the underground river, took out a pot of hot water from the storage ring and poured it into it, mixed it into warm water, took out a packet of medicinal powder from his bosom and sprinkled it, and finally took out a snow-white silk scarf, and stirred it gently in the basin.

After all the medicinal powder had melted, he twisted the silk scarf and wiped Wen Liangyu's face. He does this qiē calmly and meticulously.

Wen Liangyu didn't dodge. He stared at his father tightly, his eyes gradually moistened, and what Ning Xiaoxian saw in his eyes was admiration.

Wenger sighed and said with a smile: "When you were very young, I also helped you wipe your face like this." I haven't done this since I moved to Iwashi. After saying this, the tears in Wen Liangyu's eyes finally rolled down.

Wenger carefully wiped his face, the water was filled with powder, and wherever he rubbed it, the effect of the Flann gradually faded. When he put the silk scarf back into the water, Wen Liangyu's true face was finally revealed!

His appearance is really similar to what Changtian described, with a pointed mouth and pointed ears, a round nose, a pale white fur on his face, and a slender beard. In fact, from Ning Xiaoxian's point of view, not only is it not hideous, but it is cute. She said to herself, "Is this a fox?" No, the ears seem to be slightly rounder than the fox, and the mouth is not so pointed. By the way, what kind of species is his mother?!

Naturally, she didn't make a sound, and even her heartbeat and breathing were well hidden. The two sober people in the cave had seen Wen Liangyu's true face, and of course they would not be surprised. In fact, there were still four prisoners sitting by the wall, but I don't know what means Fan Zhenren used on them, all of them had straight eyes and dilated eyes, otherwise how could they not react when they saw Wen Liangyu's true face?

"Is that hairpin really my mother's?" Wen Liangyu asked in a low voice. This question is like a bone choking in the throat, not vomiting or unhappy.

Wenger nodded his head and said, "Not bad." Indeed, it was a gift from her. ”

"And she...... Is she still alive?"

"I don't know. Ning Xiaoxian couldn't see Wenger's expression, but he could hear his voice slowly softening, as if he had sunk into a beautiful past, "Twenty-four years ago, I passed by the border of Raozhou, missed the lodging on the way, and stayed in a deserted temple overnight. That night was the first and only time I saw your mother. I already had a family at that time, and I knew in my heart that most of the women who suddenly appeared in the wilderness were youkai, but she was so beautiful that I didn't care about it. ”

"When I woke up the next morning, she was gone, leaving only this hairpin on her pillow. Later, I inquired in many ways, but I didn't know her identity and whereabouts. Four years later, you, who had just been born, suddenly appeared in my room. Madame was shocked, but I guessed that you must be my son, and I tried to keep you despite all the opinions. ”

Wen Liangyu was speechless for a long time, and only after a while did he say, "Father, why do you treat me like this?"

Wenger reached out and stroked the fur on the top of his head: "Yu'er, I also have a problem. ”

"This world is so difficult, and it is not easy for mortals to live. In my early years, I was displaced, and I had to raise your two children, but my wife couldn't survive and died of weakness. Later, by chance, I took Xiao Zhuyan Dan, and my appearance, complexion and body shape were able to maintain my prime. But, alas, you know, this elixir is very damaging to the body. I hurt the fundamentals, and no matter how much I make up after becoming the lord of the city, it will be in vain. Today, I have collapsed my bones and blood, and I have no way to return to the sky, and no matter how much I ask the Qingxu Sect for elixir, it is in vain. ”

Wen Liangyu was moved: "Didn't you say that there are at least five years to live?"

Wenger smiled bitterly: "That's to appease you." Your Uncle Fan knows that in seven days at most, I will die in Huangquan!"

Wen Liangyu couldn't help but turn to Fan Zhenren, and when he saw him nodding with a heavy face, his heart was confused for a while.

This Wen City Lord's complexion has always looked very good, but he is about to die? Ning Xiaoxian's eyes flashed. Changtian knew that she had doubts in her heart, and opened her mouth to answer: "The immortal elixir is not a panacea. The so-called miracle medicine for reviving the dead is itself based on the vitality of the person taking the medicine. If this surnamed Wen is really as he said, it has reached the point of collapse of bones and blood, then the vitality has been extinguished. ”

He knew that such an explanation was too profound, so he gave an example: "Since the Later Earth has been incarnated into the Six Realms, the lifespan of the living beings in the world has been determined. Do you know why an old man who has no illness or disaster still dies in the end? The so-called 'death without illness' is actually the way in which the life of the dead ends, and the vitality is extinguished, and it has no choice but to perish, and this is the way for heaven and earth to balance all things. Wenger had too much loss in his early years, and it was difficult to return, even the immortal pill was powerless. (To be continued......)
