Summoning everyone in the valley, in fact, it was the twenty-one loose cultivators who were rescued by the two of them from Yuanzhou at the beginning, plus Shangguan Miao, who joined later, and the children who newly entered the valley were not considered legitimate people in the valley of Ming Province before the "ceremony" explained by Xiao Luo was held.

Gather everyone to solemnly announce that the founding patriarch of Ming Shenggu is called "Xiao Ding", Xiao Luo and Xue Yuan are his disciples, and this matter is considered the second generation of Ming Shenggu, and it is going very smoothly. There are few people in the valley now, Xiao Luo and Xue Yuan, as the owners of the valley, still have the absolute right to speak despite being approachable, and the existence of a first-generation ancestor who has been immortal for many years does not affect the situation and future of Ming Province Valley.

It is worth mentioning that Xiao Ding is not the only first-generation member of the Ming Province Valley, there is also a nominal first-generation elder of the Ming Province Valley, Xue Yu.

This was brought up by Xiao Luo.

The reason he used was not Xue Yu's identity as Xue Yu's father, but ......

"The master is arched into such a position, if he is lonely, and there is no one around him who quarrels, he will be lonely. ”

So, Xue Yu fell silent.

As a result, the first generation of members of the Ming Provincial Valley became Xiao Ding, the patriarch of the main creation school of the old valley, and Xue Yu, the first elder.

Xiao Luo picked a place to build an ancestral hall and offered Xiao Ding, Xue Yu, and Li Jinglan, who existed here as Xue Yu's wife.

Although this is a matter of great significance, it is easy to do.

What stumped Xiao Luo was another.

Sort out the books and classics left by Xiao Ding, the secret scrolls of exercises, and some things he collected when he traveled to Kyushu, and build a scripture pavilion in the valley of Ming Province.

The books left by Xiao Ding are of many types, and when they were placed in the valley where their master and apprentice lived in seclusion, they were stored very casually, and often even Xiao Ding himself could not find them quickly, which was also ridiculed by Xue Yu many times.

But whether it is Xiao Ding or Xiao Luo, neither of them has ever had the idea of sorting out and classifying.

Going to Xiao Ding's bookstore to find books is a piece of luck, and relying on it is a fate.

So now......

I don't have that patience, and I'm not good at it, so Xiao Luo has a headache.

However, Xiao Luo quickly found a valid reason not to take care of the Scripture Pavilion himself.

First, although these books were passed on to him by his master Xiao Ding, in fact, he himself has not read much, so he can't be called an understanding. The second is ...... He also had to work with Xue Yuan to study the marrow washing formation, which was more important and no one could replace.

So he naturally sent this task down.

In the valley of Ming Province, those who often help deal with chores are Yao Lan, who was born in Miaozhou and is most familiar with the surroundings, and the other is Wen Ning, who is the most familiar with Xiao Luo and Xue Yuan.

But this thing is arranged......

Yao Lan didn't even bother to tease Shangguan Miao, and hurriedly went out of the valley to "a remote and hidden place that others may not be able to find" to find more cultivation seedlings, leaving only Wen Ning with a sad face holding the several storage bags that Xiao Luo handed over to him.

Shangguan Miao thought for a moment, and tried to help in Wen Ning's earnest gaze with a straight face, but ......

Just when Wen Ning was at a loss, Shangguan Miao couldn't help but want to escape, and there were guests in the valley of Ming Province.

One of them, which is also very rare, is someone Shangguan Miao knows.

Lu Yan.

Lu Yan was the first stop that Xue Yun and Xiao Luo went to when they investigated Xue Yu's past, and the friends they met in Chenzhou Loucheng also learned the truth about Qingyun Jue from Lu Yan at one time.

It is really surprising that Lu Yan will come to Miaozhou and find the Ming Province Valley, and what is even more surprising is ......

He didn't come on his own.

He came with the sisters of the Li family, Li Yanran and Li Yanning.

More than half a year ago, Li Yanning received the news and quickly left Yuanzhou and fled to Chenzhou for temporary refuge, and by chance met Lu Yan, who was walking outside the building. At that time, Li Yanning, who was still injured and had not recovered, was rescued by Lu Yan, who was passing by, and walked together for a distance, and accidentally discovered that they had the same friends with each other.

Xiao Luo, Xue Yuan.

Li Yanning was thoughtful, and after escaping to Chenzhou, she was also extremely cautious, even if she found out that Lu Yan was a friend she met in Chenzhou that Xue Yuan and Xiao Luo had mentioned once, she still did not completely let down her guard, and secretly tried a few times. Lu Yan was frank, even if he found out that he was guarded, he didn't care, he was a little more dedicated than when he didn't know that Li Yanning was related to Xiao Luo and Xue Yuan, and found a proper place for Li Yanning to settle down in Chenzhou.

Lu Yan's kindness was very direct, and Li Yanning, who was relieved after a few temptations, was grateful for his care on the one hand, and on the other hand, she was somewhat ashamed of her previous defense against him, and her attitude towards Lu Yan gradually improved.

It is inconvenient for Li Yanning to come forward to investigate the news and contact others, and almost all of Li Yanning's sources in the past six months are Lu Yan, who has done her best to help her collect news.

Even Li Yanran, who found Chenzhou, threw off her tail to avoid other Rao's eyes under Lu Yan's contact and help, and got together with her sister Li Yanning.

When Li Yanran and Li Yanning met, Li Yanning's injuries were mostly healed, and the two sisters summed up and decided to find a way to go south to find Xue Yuan. It's just that he originally planned to say goodbye to Lu Yan, but he didn't want Lu Yan to be silent for a while, so he decided to go with the two sisters.

The three of them set out from Chenzhou, went west through Mianzhou and went south, and then through Qingzhou, and entered the territory of Miaozhou. Even Li Yanran had to admit that with Lu Yan's companions, the two sisters saved a lot of trouble along the way.

Li Yanning doesn't have to, she used to stay in Cangzhou Li's house and didn't go out much, that is, Li Yanran occasionally went out and followed the guards to take care of it, and then after this period of time, she learned a lot of things, such a long-distance journey and a low-key way to hide her whereabouts, the two sisters are not good at it.

So when she first started on the road, Li Yanran, who was not very accustomed to Lu Yan, also silently stopped doing anything.

welcomed the three of them into the valley, and everyone was very happy, especially Xue Yuan, who rarely saw the Li family sisters again.

After entering the Ming Province Valley, everyone said something simple, and Li Yanran listened to Xue Yuan's original intention and ambition to establish the Ming Province Valley......

With a "snap", Li Yanran, who was too anxious to get up, knocked down the chair behind her.

But Li Yanran, whose eyes were shining, didn't care, but looked at Xue Yan directly: "Yuan!"

Even if he is a Gu master now, he has exceeded a lot, and he still instinctively shuddered after Li Yanran screamed: "Ah...... I...... I'm here. ”

"You, Ming Province Valley, can you accept me and Yan Ning?"

"Yan ...... Yanran?"

"I don't plan to go back to Li's house again. Li Yanran said bluntly: "You understand Yanning's situation even more. ”

"Sister ......"

"Good. When Li Yanning couldn't help but pull her sleeve, Li Yanran turned her hand and rubbed her sister's head, and her tone was more than twice as gentle: "The only concern that Sister Ah cares about in the Li family is you, you are not here, and there is no need for Sister Ah to stay." ”

"Sister......" Li Yanning's eyes were slightly red.

Lu Yan looked at it, reached out and added hot tea to the teacup in front of Li Yanning, and put a handkerchief on the table.

Li Yanran glanced at Lu Yan's movements, her gentle and warm expression suddenly became hideous, and she gritted her teeth and glared at Lu Yan viciously.

"The Li family can't protect my sister, so I will protect it myself in the future...... It's not going to be coveted!"

When she said these words sonorously, Li Yanran's eyes stayed on Lu Yan, who was smiling slightly and was not affected, for a while longer.

Xue Yun and Xiao Luo glanced at each other, their expressions a little complicated.

Li Yanran, who didn't pay much attention to Xue Yun and Xiao Luo, didn't notice it, and Lu Yan didn't pay attention either, but Li Yanning saw it, and couldn't help asking, "...... Sister Xue Yuan, what's wrong?"

Hearing Li Yanning ask, Li Yanran didn't glare at Lu Yan anymore, and turned her head to look at Xue Yan: "Something to do?"

Xue Yun looked at Xiao Luo, and Li Yanran followed her gaze and also looked at Xiao Luo.

As the main person who rescued Li Yanning from Zhongzhou, Xiao Luo, who knows more, does have more say than Xue Yuan.

"Have you ever thought that the Li family may not have contributed to Li Yanning's matter?"

Li Yanran had a look on her face that you were joking: "...... Huh?"

It was Li Yanning, who was silent for a moment and hesitated to speak: "Brother Xiao is thinking that the Feng family guest who helped us, Tian Buku's senior, is related to the Li family?"

Xue Yun couldn't help but sigh.

Li Yanning's intelligence and sensitivity are truly amazing.

Li Yanran looked at Li Yanning, then at Xiao Luo and Xue Yuan, and suddenly sat back in the chair and hugged her chest and pouted, not very convinced: "That person is related to the Li family? How do you know? No...... At that time, he didn't want to reveal anything other than swearing a demonic oath? I have never heard of anyone in the Li family who has anything to do with the surname Tian. ”

"It's just a conjecture, and there is no empirical evidence. I just think it's a coincidence, and I suspect that there may not be so many coincidences in the world. ”

Li Yanran blinked and looked at Xiao Luo: "What coincidence?"

Xiao Luo didn't exit directly, but looked at Lu Yan on the side: "Brother Lu may also know about this." ”

“...... Huh?"

No, Li Yanran, even Lu Yan himself was stunned for a moment.

"Chenzhou Loucheng, nineteen years ago, there was something special in Dongcheng Villa. ”

Being Xiao Luo like this, Lu Yan frowned slightly and thought about it, and then his eyes lit up and he thought of something.

Li Yanran grinded her teeth and looked at Lu Yan: "What did you think of?"

Although his cultivation is already poor, since Xiao Luo still calls him "Brother Lu" on an equal footing, Lu Yan is still called in the same way as before: "What Brother Xiao refers to is the death of two loose cultivators who made a little noise nineteen years ago in the Dongcheng Annex. At that time, it was the people of the Feng family who harmed people's lives, and the Li family ...... It seems that someone tried to stop the rescue, but unfortunately failed to save people from the Feng family. At that time, the two casual cultivators, one male and one female, were Taoist couples, the male cultivator's surname was Mo, and the female cultivator's surname was Tian. ”

Although they are only here, even Li Yanran who is here has already understood, after all, they specially mentioned Tian Buku, who is a guest of the Feng family, but they should cooperate with them to rescue Li Yanning.

Tian is not bitter, a female cultivator surnamed Tian.

Li Yanran was a little surprised: "Are you Tian Bubitter related to the female cultivator who died at the hands of the Feng family......? Is that such a coincidence?"

"If that's the case, it's not incomprehensible that Tian Buhard is helping. Nineteen years ago, the people in the Li family in Loucheng tried to save people, although they were unsuccessful, but they wanted to talk about it, so they had the help this time. ”

Li Yanran also understood the meaning of Xiao Luo's words before. If Tian Bubitter's favor is really to repay the Li family's favor.

Nineteen years ago in Chenzhou Loucheng, it was obviously impossible for Li Yanran or Li Yanning herself, and even Li Yanning's parents had not set foot in Chenzhou when they were alive.

If Tian Bubitter wants to repay the Li family's favor, the object must be other people in the Li family.

To count it that way......

"Sister. Li Yanning, who pondered for a moment, looked at Li Yanran: "I have read the records of the deeds before, if I remember correctly, I went to Chenzhou Loucheng to collect medicinal materials nineteen years ago...... It's the second uncle. ”

Li Yanning's second uncle, Xue Yun has also seen it.

The most recent was when Xue Yan rushed from Naozhou to Cangzhou to meet Li Yanran, who appeared when she was in the city fighting with the monks who were talking about Li Yanning's "death", restraining Li Yanran's actions, sealing her spiritual power, and making her the one who was punished by the Hui clan.

The second uncle of the Li family, Li Qingzhou.

“...... Second Uncle ......" Li Yanran muttered, her face quite complicated.

"Yanran ......"

“...... You are also speculating, and there is no evidence. This thing...... I remember it, and I'll find out when I have the chance. If so...... Second Uncle's ......" Li Yanran gritted her teeth, took a deep breath and calmed down for a moment before continuing: "I will remember." ”

Xue Yun understood Li Yanran's tangled reaction at the moment.

She still clearly remembered that at that time in Moling City, Cangzhou, she was restrained by Li Qingzhou, the second uncle of the Li family, and her unfair behavior for Yan Ning was wrong, and when she was wrong to those monks who persecuted Yan Ning to talk about it "after death", Li Yanran's eyes were red.

At that time, she was so unwilling, so unfair, and so hateful.

"But ......" Li Yanran's words changed: "This does not affect my plan and Yanning to devote myself to your Ming Province Valley." ”

Xue Yun looked at Li Yanran and knew that she wasn't done yet, so he didn't bother and let her continue.

"My idea is the simplest. I have lived with you before, I don't have any great ambitions, I don't have any compassion, I just want the people I care about to be good. Not only peace, but I also want them not to be wronged, not to be treated slowly, not to be misunderstood, not to be slandered. I love the future you talk about, and I want everyone to know the 'truth'. I'm not afraid of your jokes, I just want to see those people, knowing that I was being used by that brute Yuan Che, knowing that I was being deceived by the Feng family, knowing that I was stupidly being made by the lack of refinement, and knowing that I was the executioner who persecuted the innocent at all...... Will they be ashamed, will they regret it, will they be ashamed of themselves! I just want to see what kind of face they still have, and how upright and selfless they are when they look up in front of me! I just want to see it! I want to see it with my own eyes!"
