Chapter 160: The Comer Is Not Good and Suspicious
"Where is the Dementor Rod?" Elder Red asked aloud when he glanced him up and down, and found that he was empty-handed.
"In the room, I put it on the table. Lin Shuihan stretched out his finger, Elder Hong glanced at him, and then walked into the room, and saw that the dementor rod was indeed placed on the table, Elder Hong was slightly stunned, and stepped forward to pick it up, but before she touched it, she suddenly remembered the stinging sensation when she touched the dementor rod before, and she felt palpitations for a while, and took back her outstretched hand.
Lin Shuihan also entered the room with him, and when he saw Elder Hong stopping at the table, he thought she was going to take away the dementor stick, so he asked, "Elder Hong, do you want to take this dementor rod?"
"What's the matter, you're afraid I'll take it away?" Elder Hong turned his head to look at Lin Shuihan, his eyes sharp, he hurriedly shook his head, "No, I just think that this thing is here, you seem to be ...... I don't seem to be at ease. ”
It's really not reassuring. Elder Hong replied secretly in her heart, but on the surface, she did not show any uneasy attitude, she remembered the incident in the cave before, so she cautiously asked tentatively: "I heard that you found Xue Ye in the cave, right?"
As soon as he heard the word 'Xue Ye', Lin Shuihan's heart trembled slightly, he was silent for a moment, paused, and nodded.
"Then Xue Ye's death, do you know?" Elder Hong continued to ask, making Lin Shuihan a little confused, he nodded, "I know, yes, it was Mu Li who told me." Under his snort, the atmosphere gradually became tense......
"Before Xue Ye died, you were with him, right?"
"Hmm. He nodded slightly.
"Then how did you fall into the hands of Youyang Qu, it stands to reason that their target should be Xue Ye, how could they take you away?" Elder Hong frowned slightly, and the question he asked instantly lowered the atmosphere to freezing point.
"This ......" Lin Shuihan was slightly stunned, he didn't know how to answer, the nervousness in his heart had already made him feel pressured, he was so panicked that he couldn't help but ooze fine beads of sweat on his forehead, Elder Hong glanced at him, there was already a smile in the corner of his eyes, and then asked sharply: "Do you know that the man in black who appeared with you is someone from Youyangqu?"
"......" Lin Shuihan was speechless again, his hands couldn't help but be behind his back, tightly entwined together, looking at his helpless appearance, Elder Hong asked again, "The person who held you hostage doesn't seem to have any ill will towards you, and the injuries left on your body are basically not fatal, which is really curious." She said intentionally word by word, making Lin Shuihan's heart tremble.
"Also, at the foot of the Bleak Bone Mountain, who is the mysterious person wearing a mask who appeared with you and Miss Luo?" Elder Hong's last sentence was soft, but it made Lin Shuihan's heart shake suddenly, his eyes suddenly raised, and his gaze unconsciously fell on Elder Hong's expressionless face, Elder Red ...... Is this starting to doubt him?
Goosebumps swelled up in his heart unconsciously, and a sense of fear completely annihilated his whole person, swept away his brain, leaving a blank piece of paper.
"Elder, is this suspicious of me?" After a while, Lin Shuihan asked this sentence stubbornly, and Elder Hong smiled faintly and asked rhetorically, "Isn't it worth doubting?"
"What does this mean?" Lin Shuihan was a little panicked, and Elder Hong stared at him directly, making him even more overwhelmed, "Lin Shuihan, do you know? From the moment you entered the Qilin Gate, all strange things happened to you, I don't believe it, you don't feel anything?"
Elder Hong turned around and sat down at the table, and continued: "From the beginning of the Heart Connecting Stone, to the head of the sect sending you down the mountain to participate in the banquet of the Nan family, and the matter of Yishuang City, I won't know everything about it, don't you really think that you are really talented and blessed with great fortune, right?"
"Heh......" Lin Shuihan lowered his eyebrows and smiled, "Elder thinks, is someone secretly helping me?"
Elder Hong was silent, but her attitude of not speaking had already made Lin Shuihan understand everything, he was flustered for a while, he didn't expect Elder Hong to suspect so much because of Xue Ye's death, indeed, if Asu wasn't there, he might not have escaped from Youyangqu's hands so smoothly.
In any case, he must not say Aso!
Thinking of this, he immediately said to Elder Hong: "Elder Hong, I know that I have always been an exception in the Qilin Gate, and I also know that the matter of Yishuang City is indeed a bit unbelievable, but these things are also unexpected, and I don't know about the things you asked me. Lin Shuihan bowed his head humbly and said.
Elder Hong was moved by his humble and unarrogant attitude, and she didn't know what to say to answer for a while, but the suspicion of him in her heart still did not disappear, she looked blankly at the courtyard, and found that it was getting late, so she got up and said to him: "Okay, take care of the dementor rod, and rest well." With that, she left, and Lin Shuihan looked at her distant figure, and finally breathed a sigh of relief in his heart!
Lin Shuihan now recalled the scene just now, he was still a little scared, he came back in too much hurry, he hadn't thought of these things yet, Elder Hong had reminded him today, he had to quickly find a way to hide Asu's part from the past!
Tonight, it is destined to be sleepless again......
The night is like ink, the moon and the stars are bright, the stars that seem to be within reach, reaching out seems to be able to hold it tightly in ...... hand, but as soon as I let go, I found that I never had it, the sea of stars, I can only look at it silently, that little bit of starlight, dim, and disappear little by little beside the bright moon, dim, and disappear.
Three days later, the people of Yishuang City had arrived at Yangzhou City safely, Li Shiran and they left Nanchu, and went to Jiangling City again, preparing to carry out the order of the head of the house to bring Nankong Qian back to Qilin Gate.
"Dad, I'm leaving. Surrounded by Li Shiran and the three of them, Nankong Qian was reluctant to look back, looking at his father who had a lot of vicissitudes at the moment when he stood at the gate, he gradually felt more guilty in his heart, and he didn't know why he suddenly became so hypocritical.
After hearing his 'um', Nan Kongqian only felt a sour heart, and an uncomfortable mood instantly surged into his eyes, turning into a little bit of crystal, but Nan Fengzhu was still indifferent, standing at the door like a pine, Nan Kongqian didn't know what the peace in his eyes was, and he didn't know why his expressionless face was, but he faintly felt that his father's eyes seemed to be a little different from usual.
It didn't make a difference, he took a deep breath, and then walked past Li Shiran and walked in front of Nan Fengzhu, knelt down on his knees, kowtowed three times in front of him, and said: "Dad, don't worry, I will definitely learn from the teacher when I go to Qilin Gate, and I will definitely not embarrass you, nor will I embarrass our Nan family." ”
Before the words fell, Nan Fengzhu's eyes trembled slightly, and then he turned around and said in a deep voice: "Well, that's good." After that, he seemed to choke up, and said, "Protect the Dusheng mirror." ”
With that, he walked into the house with his feet raised, and the moment Nankong raised his head, the resolute and old back that fluttered in the wind was inadvertently engraved in his heart, and it was eternal in an instant.
Nan Kongqian finally followed Li Shiran and their edgeworth left, Nan Fengzhu just sat down in the room, picked up the teacup, and heard the sound of casting the sword outside, his hand was stagnant, his eyes flashed for a moment empty, paused, he still decided to go out to have a look, so he hurriedly put down the teacup and ran to the courtyard, as soon as he raised his head, he saw the figures of the few edgeships flying away.
After all, it's gone! He sighed heavily in his heart, Qian'er, you finally got your wish and left the Nan family, the city lord's mansion, and Jiangling City! The suppressed emotions collapsed in an instant at this moment, and the strong reluctance and worry swept him away in an instant, he sighed heavily, his eyes were already soaked by the dazzling blue sky, he lowered his head weakly, helpless and melancholy, worried and sad.
Left at this time, returned at that time, although Nankong Qian left, but Luo Muli returned safely to the Silk Pavilion under the escort of Su Qing, as soon as she came back, she immediately went to Weilan Courtyard, wanted to find Mrs. Youyang, but unfortunately Mrs. Youluo was entertaining guests in the Silk Pavilion, she had no choice but to sit in the hall and drink tea, and Su Qing saw that she was safe and sound at home, so she left, and never left a word, and Luo Muli did not say anything to stay.
"Miss, Nankong Qian will go to the Qilin Gate to apprentice today. Luan Su saw Luo Muli drinking tea leisurely on the side, bored, so he told her about it.
"So what, what does it have to do with me?" Luo Muli glanced at her, looking indifferent, Luan Su was a little surprised, "Aren't Miss and him friends? Besides, Jiang Sha Ge and the Nan family have always been good friends, and at this time, Miss should also show something." ”
"What's wrong with friendship?" Luo Muli looked puzzled, "That's a matter between my mother and Nan Fengzhu, that Nan Kongqian just went to Qilin Gate to apprentice, oh what, do we still have to beat gongs and drums to see him off, besides, as soon as he leaves, Nan Fengzhu must feel uncomfortable, at this time, going to Nan's house is to ask himself to sit on a cold bench, there is no need." ”
Luan Su couldn't help but be amused by what she said, and nodded, "That's right, it seems that Madame doesn't care very much about this matter." ”
"Of course, who is my mother, and you can compare to this little head!" Luo Muli pointed at Luan Su's head angrily! Then she looked distracted, speaking of Nankong's departure, she thought of Lin Shuihan again, it was really sudden, and she left like that for no reason! I didn't even have time to say goodbye, so let's have a meal!
