Chapter 34: The Stranger
When everyone saw her suddenly change their expressions, and when they were suspicious, Tao Muqing shook his head at the wheelchair boy.
"Shu Yang, she is not Tao Ya'e. ”
"What are you calling him?" Zhu Rongguang looked at her in surprise.
Shi Shuyang was stunned for a moment, tore off the human skin mask, and said excitedly: "You really heard us talking!"
"What!" Zhu Kewen and Zhu Kefu exclaimed in unison, and then glanced at each other quite weakly.
Aunt Mei frowned and asked, "Why are you two so surprised?"
Zhu Kefu laughed and said: "We think that although a person is unconscious, his consciousness is awake and he can listen to the outside world, and he suddenly feels magical." ”
"Really?" Aunt Mei didn't believe it.
Tao Muqing paid attention to his humble expression, and when the master was about to open his mouth to ask, he preemptively said: "Well, although I fell into a coma after that night, my consciousness was awake, so I heard it clearly, but after you treated me and suffered a backlash, I was even unconscious." ”
After that, Tao Muqing glanced around, the young girl with a weak heart didn't need to ask Zhu Kewen and Zhu Kefu, the old man was always the owner of the village, and the woman who accompanied the owner of the old village was naturally Miss Chang, and she naturally recognized her as Aunt Mei when she heard her voice.
Tao Muqing propped himself up next to the wooden beam next to the bed, and saluted and thanked: "Mu Qing has thanked the owner of Chang Lao Zhuang and Miss Chang here, thank you for saving Shuyang!"
Chang Lao Zhuang and Chang Ling nodded slightly.
"Master. Tao Muqing looked at Zhu Rongguang and said apologetically: "I'm sorry master, I lied to you, I didn't mean to deceive you, I just ......"
"It's just what!" Zhu Rongguang stood with his hands in his hands, his face full of displeasure.
Tao Muqing was stunned for a moment, and when he saw that his master was angry, he was so sad that he apologized and said, "No matter what the reason, Mu Qing is ashamed of your kindness to me, master." ”
"Hey......" Aunt Mei tugged at Zhu Rongguang's sleeve, stepped forward and said comfortingly: "You don't have to be sad, he is joking, not really angry with you." ”
Tao Muqing raised his head when he heard this, saw that the corners of his mouth were slightly raised, cried with joy, and choked up: "The apprentice is really grateful to the master, if it weren't for you, master, I'm afraid I would never see Shuyang again in my life." ”
Saying that, Tao Muqing truthfully explained what happened to her and Shi Shuyang, and also truthfully explained how she was imprisoned in Chunhualou and what happened inside, and it was only at this time that she knew what kind of place Chunhualou was.
"When I woke up, I was already in Luoyun Villa, and I was in a coma for three days and three nights before I woke up, and the owners of Chang Lao Zhuang treated me very well, and they also searched for you everywhere for me, but to no avail!
Shi Shuyang blamed himself and resented himself for not being able to protect her, Tao Muqing comforted: "It's all my fault, if it weren't for me, how could you lose the ability to walk, and Blood Spirit Island wouldn't be what it is now." ”
"I don't want you to have it all......"
When he was about to comfort himself, Tao Muqing knew what he wanted to say, snatched the words and smiled: "Don't worry, I won't feel sorry for myself, I will be intoxicated by the pain, Shu Yang, after this series of things, I have grown up." ”
After a pause, she smiled and comforted him in turn: "So, you don't have to worry about it, okay?"
But the more he saw her laughing, Shi Shuyang's heart became more uncomfortable, and he was still choked up on the surface, thinking of her previous words, he changed the topic and said: "You say that she is not Tao Ya'e, but her ability to urge jade to recite is exactly the same as mine." ”
Tao Muqing affirmed: "It's not her, I just feel a little familiar between my eyebrows." ”
"I thought it was my own delusion, but who is she not?" Shi Shuyang really couldn't think of anyone else who could do this besides her now.
"Good sister~" Zhu Kewen's eyes shone brightly, and his mouth was as sweet as honey: "Good sister, I have a plan, but good sister has to promise me one thing." ”
Tao Muqing saw his big round eyes sparkling closer, and couldn't help but deliberately tease him: "But if Brother Kewen wants me to agree to be your future daughter-in-law, this is a bit embarrassing sister." ”
Zhu Kefu looked at him with a deserving face, Zhu Kewen smiled awkwardly, scratched his head and said, "It's not this, it's not this, you promise me first." ”
Zhu Rongguang and Aunt Mei rarely saw him in an embarrassing situation, with an aggrieved look on his face, and immediately looked at them with interest.
Tao Muqing chuckled lightly and nodded, "Okay, I promise you, then you can say it." ”
When Zhu Kewen and Zhu Kefu heard that the boulder in their hearts finally fell, they suddenly felt much more relaxed, and Zhu Kewen said happily: "If the word is decided, then the matter will be handed over to me!"
As if he was afraid that he would go back on his word, he hooked Tao Muqing's tail finger by himself, and then carved the thumb seal to make a deal, watching him leave the house like fleeing after a series of actions, Tao Muqing couldn't help laughing.
This kid must have done something wrong, Zhu Rongguang and Aunt Mei shook their heads in their hearts, full of helplessness.
The old farmer suddenly said seriously: "Miss Tao, I want to confirm this matter with you. ”
"The old farmer, please speak. Tao Muqing bowed slightly, and listened to him say: "Are you sure that the person who destroyed the island is Song Tianyu, the king of Yu?"
"He said it himself, and Uncle Feng," Tao Muqing paused, and corrected: "General Feng and other officers and soldiers also call him so." ”
After pondering for a moment, the old owner said, "Since Miss Tao trusts the old man and tells her life story one by one, the old man doesn't want to deceive you. ”
"Father......" Chang Ling said anxiously, Chang Lao raised his hand to stop her, and continued: "My real name is not Chang Tianheng, and she is not called Chang Ling, but she is indeed the only daughter of the old man and the only relative. ”
Under the shock of everyone, the owner of Chang Lao Zhuang recalled in a deep voice with hatred in his eyes: "This matter is tasked back to twenty years ago, Luofu, Chenfu, and Zhoufu, as the three founding mansions, were loved and supported by the people. But overnight, when the Luofu, Chen, and Zhou mansions were secretly accumulating troops and wanted to usurp power and seize the throne, I noticed that something was wrong, and I knew that the first emperor was on guard against the three founding mansions that won the hearts of the people, and believed in traitors to prevent future troubles. Even if I have fled as fast as I can, I will not be able to escape the pursuit of the first emperor, except for me and the hundreds of lives of the little girl's mansion to be killed on the spot!"
The owner of Chang Lao Zhuang held back his hatred and said bluntly: "I am the black-faced Zhou Guogong Zhou Jingqiu twenty years ago, and the little girl Zhou Chanxin!"
"Zhou Guogong!" Zhu Rongguang watched his father and daughter tear off the human skin mask and reveal their original faces, and exclaimed: "It's really you! Old man Zhou! Brother Zhou, he ......."
"Your brother Zhou, in order to cover us, brutally beheaded him on the spot, and his head is in a different place!" Chang Lao Zhuang said bitterly: "I didn't want to have any more intersections with people in the past, for fear of affecting you, but the things in the dark are so mysterious!"
"I want to have a drink with Brother Zhou and talk about great achievements back then, so comfortable!" Zhu Rongguang couldn't help crying, his hand on his shoulder trembled, and he said excitedly: "It's good to be alive! It's good to be alive!"
The owner wiped away his tears and continued: "Twenty years ago, my little girl and I fled all the way, and finally hid in a cave halfway up the mountain, although I escaped from the pursuit, but I was seriously injured and in danger, but God favored me, let me meet a group of strangers who sheltered from the rain, they saved me, they seemed to be looking for something and had to stay in the cave, and I also became attached to them, it was he who taught me the method of refining jade, and they have the Chang Tianheng and the jade refiner I am today!"
When Tao Muqing heard it, he saw his words pause, and slowly came to the middle between himself and Shi Shuyang, stunned.
The old farmer folded the hands of the two of them up and down, trembling and choking excitedly: "Those strangers are your father and elder!"
"My father?" Tao Muqing and Shi Shuyang were stunned in unison, and it was hard to believe what he said for a while.
Chang Lao Zhuang nodded solemnly and said: "You are quite similar to your father's charm, the same ability to urge jade to recite literature, the same surname Tao, and when he was associated with your father in the cave, he also mentioned your stubbornness, but his words were disgusted, but the corners of his mouth were full of pride, Tao Muqing's name, the Tao family except you, no one else looked at it." ”
"It's really Daddy'......" Tao Muqing was a little stunned, and said uncertainly: "But isn't there a taboo on Blood Spirit Island! Why would they leave the island?"
Shi Shuyang was also shocked.
The owner of Chang Lao Zhuang said earnestly: "Child, there are some things that you have to confirm yourself. ”
