The stove was steaming, blurring his vision, and Lu Mingshu couldn't figure out for a while, what Xie Lianzhen meant by this. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

After saying this, Xie Lianzhen didn't say more, silently shabu-shabu, and drank a little wine.

After being quiet for a long time, he suddenly said, "It seems that there is no place for me here." ”

Lu Mingshu paused: "You want to leave?"

He smiled: "What, you can't bear it, you still want to drive me away before!"

"That's not what I meant. She whispered.

Xie Lianzhen put down the dishes and chopsticks, drank another glass, and then said: "Just like you said, as Lianzhen Xingjun, I always rely on Jiuyao Palace to be different, and I also have my own things to do." ”

“…… I'm sorry. ”

Xie Lianzhen looked at her: "You know that what I want to hear is not an apology." ”

“……”

Xie Lianzhen smiled bitterly: "Hey, you can't say anything nice...... Forget it, get used to it. ”

Lu Mingshu put down the wine glass, took out a small package from the mustard sac and handed it over.

"What's this?" Xie Lianzhen glanced at.

"A parting gift. ”

"Oh, I actually have a gift for me, and I didn't go in vain. Xie Lianzhen happily picked up the package, but saw that there were a few books inside, "Uh......"

"Everything else is false. But I heard Lu Mingshu say, "Although you have the support of the princess, you still have to rely on yourself in the end." Take these exercises back and ponder them, they should be on your way. ”

Xie Lianzhen picked out a knife book and squinted at her: "This book is also my path?"

Amused by his sour tone, Lu Mingshu picked the corner of his mouth: "Isn't that also you?"

"How is that the same?!" Xie Lianzhen was right.

It's a pity that she is not the sect master of the Seven Truths, so she immediately unceremoniously tore his face: "Part of your combat power comes from him, if you don't care about him, what will happen to him, I don't need to say." ”

"......" Xie Lianzhen suddenly deflated and muttered, "I knew that you liked him more than me." ”

Lu Mingshu pulled the corners of his mouth and didn't argue with him.

After pouring a glass of wine, Xie Lianzhen said, "I also have a parting gift." ”

Lu Mingshu picked up the leeks in the bowl.

But he heard him say: "But it's not a thing, but two pieces of news." ”

Lu Mingshu raised his eyebrows.

"Remember Yao Lao, right?"

Nonsense, can you forget?

Xie Lianzhen continued: "Yao Lao, you met a mother-in-law, didn't you?"

Lu Mingshu's movements paused.

"That mother-in-law, I know your ancestor. ”

She put down her chopsticks: "What the hell do you want to say?"

Xie Lianzhen looked at her with a smile, and finally felt that she had regained the initiative: "That mother-in-law has an agreement with you, if you get out of Yao Lao safely, she will tell you about your ancestor." However, immediately after we were sent to the Holy King World, we didn't have time. ”

"So what?"

"Do you think the mother-in-law is dead? No, they were taken away by the princess's men. ”

Lu Mingshu's expression was solemn, and he straightened up: "Say it quickly!" and almost went up to pull him by the collar.

Xie Lianzhen raised her hand: "Okay, okay, I'll say it right away, don't get excited." Seeing Lu Mingshu sitting back, he said, "I came back to see that mother-in-law, and asked in detail about this incident." She said that she did meet your ancestor in Beiming back then, and it was thirty-eight years ago when she counted the time. ”

Thirty-eight years ago, that was the year when Shizu disappeared!

"Shizu disappeared in Beiming?"

"I don't know. Xie Lianzhen said, "Because when she was separated from your ancestor, your ancestor was fine." ”

"That's all the news?"

"Of course not. When I do things, of course, I do everything. Xie Lianzhen praised herself by the way, and took out a map and a booklet from her arms.

Lu Mingshu couldn't wait to take it: "This is ......"

"The map is the known route of your ancestor, and the circle is where she lost her last trace. What was recorded in the booklet was the confession of the mother-in-law, as well as other corroborating evidence that we found. The mother-in-law said, before parting, your ancestor said that she was not worried about the apprentice and was going back to the master's door. ”

The booklet is not thick, only about twenty pages, Lu Mingshu quickly flipped through it, and then went to look at the map.

Shizu's route back then was similar to her. I went to Zhongzhou first, then turned to Beiming, from east to west, and finally lost my trace in Qinglu Prefecture at the western end.

If you want to go back to the sect......

Lu Mingshu's fingers paused.

"Yinshan ......," she said softly.

Xie Lianzhen's eyes sank slightly, and she nodded: "If your ancestor takes a shortcut, it is very likely that you will pass by Yin Mountain." ”

Beiming and Xichuan do not border, from Qinglan Prefecture back to Xichuan, either go around a short section, pass through Zhongzhou by water, or turn over Yin Mountain.

But because Yinshan was the ancient battlefield of the human and barbarian tribes back then, the terrain was treacherous and desolate, fierce beasts were rampant, and there were barbarian infests, and most people would detour through Zhongzhou instead of choosing to climb Yinshan.

However, her master had already come out of her mind back then, and according to her master, she was the top in the entire sect. At that time, Grandmaster Xiang Yu Wei was still there, Jiuyao Palace was not in decline, and the masters of the sect were still famous in Guxia. The so-called art masters are bold, and it is not strange that the ancestor chose to take a shortcut back to Xichuan.

"I have deliberated many times about your ancestor's route, and there are only two possibilities for her disappearance. First, it was swept into an unknown tributary of the Ming River, and second, it was Yinshan. The first possibility is not high, because your ancestor has a detailed map in her hand, and since she plans to go back, it is unlikely that she will go to an unknown area. So ......"

"She probably disappeared in Yinshan. ”

Xie Lianzhen nodded: "This just explains why you can't find any clues." ”

Yes, the entire Jiuyao Palace, including the master, never thought that the master would disappear in Yinshan. When the master entered the trance, he chose to travel to Beiming, but he did not have the intention of following the traces of the master, but the result was ......

"Let's talk about it first, I'm telling you this because I believe you can hold it. That place in Yinshan is unusual, don't think that you are strong and crash into it. ”

Lu Mingshu raised his head: "Your father died in Yinshan, right?"

Xie Lianzhen was silent. Yinshan is also a special place for him, and the tragedy of his birth began in Yinshan. If it weren't for the death of his father in Yin Mountain, his mother wouldn't have had to work so hard, and he wouldn't have to ......

Lu Mingshu nodded: "I know." ”

Xie Lianzhen sighed: "I kind of regret telling you this." ”

"Even if you don't say it, I'll look it up. ”

"But it's not so easy to find out. ”

Lu Mingshu smiled faintly and didn't say much.

"By the way, what's the other message you're talking about?"

He just said two pieces of news, the first one was so shocked, I don't know how amazing the second one will be.

Xie Lianzhen smiled: "The second news is none of your business, but I think it's better to talk about it." (To be continued.) )
