Chapter 254: Mother and Son Appear—Trouble
Seeing Mu Chenfeng walking away in such a dashing manner, Ling'er pinned her hopes on Bai Yuntian, who seemed to be more kind than Mu Chenfeng, and a pair of bright eyes revealed an extremely expectant gaze, and the people who watched it were so unmoved.
"It's windy here, Miss Ling'er should hurry back, be careful of your headache from the wind." Bai Yuntian looked like a humble gentleman.
"Huh?" This care seems to be in place. Ling'er turned thunderous, pinched his waist with both hands, and saw that he was about to explode.
"Miss, let's go back quickly, Young Master Mu and Young Master Bai have already gone away." Nuo'er pulled Ling'er, who was still angry.
After returning to the dormitory, Ling'er lay down depressedly and directly, these people are not kind, the more they think about it, the more angry they become. Worried about Ao Zhan's comfort, he asked Nuo'er to guard outside, and come over to report to himself as soon as there was news.
Sleeping unconsciously until midnight, there was a noise outside the door, Ling'er sat up from the bed, and saw Nuo'er and Mu Chenfeng walking in from the outside, followed by Bai Yuntian and Ao Zhan.
"Tell me well, what have you been doing for so long," Mu Chenfeng circled around Ao Zhan, with a hint of evil in his eyes and a look of interest.
Ling'er rubbed her worried eyes, and saw Ao Zhan standing in the middle of the house with his hands tied with five flowers, and hurriedly stepped forward and said, "You can't be so rude to Uncle Ao." So saying, he went to him and helped him untie him.
Mu Chenfeng grabbed Ling'er's hands, "No, what did he do behind our backs, if you don't try it, don't think about catching the old witch." ”
Ling'er looked at Mu Chenfeng, and then at Ao Zhan's cold face. After all, he couldn't bear to tie it up like this, and said firmly: "If Uncle Ao doesn't want to say it, then let him be." After saying that, he still untied Ao Zhan's rope and threw it aside.
Ao Zhan didn't expect Ling'er to treat him like this, until his hands were free and he waited distrustfully for a moment before pushing the door out.
Mu Chenfeng was already angry, and then pushed the door out.
"Mu Chenfeng, this is my territory, I said let him go, you are not allowed to mess around." Ling'er was afraid that Mu Chenfeng would chase Ao Zhan again. Shouted through the window.
The night ended unhappily. Ling'er was depressed in her heart, thinking that this time there were a few more people to help her find the old witch, but she didn't expect it to fall apart suddenly, and even Mu Chenfeng was offended by herself.
A few more days passed. During these days, Ling'er was still secretly visiting the palaces of the Bihai Heavenly Palace. Try to find any clues. Although Mu Chenfeng also helped to find it together. But it's not as hippie and smiling as in the past, but fortunately, Baiyuntian is still the same as before.
After more than a month of direct investigation, I saw that almost all the places where the Bihai Heavenly Palace could hide were turned over by Ling'er. Still nothing has been found.
"Miss, I see that the demon woman must still be hiding in the col of the back mountain, Bai Gongzi's guess is right." Nuo'er sat side by side with Ling'er on the rocks to bask in the sun, and the gentle light of the late autumn sun fell on the two girls, and the two of them blushed in the sun.
Ling'er picked up small stones and threw them into the mountain stream in a distraction, and didn't even hear a sound after throwing them for a long time, "I naturally thought about this, but we went there countless times, but there was no flaw at all, even the sound of metal grinding disappeared at night, maybe Bai Gongzi heard it wrong at the beginning." ”
"It would be nice to open up that place and take a look." Nuoer said very unwillingly.
After Nuo'er's reminder, Ling'er stood up suddenly, how stupid was she, such a simple thing, since she had been thinking and meditating for so many days, she had missed the best opportunity in vain.
In the back mountain of Bihai Heavenly Palace, Ling'er found several craftsmen to come and excavate, one shift for every five people, one shift per hour, day and night.
This is not the sound of metal grinding at night, the sound of beating stones can be heard in the entire Bihai Heavenly Palace, and it is loud all the time, and the noisy people are dizzy.
"This girl seems to be iron-hearted and wants to dig three feet into the ground to dig out the old witch, what does Young Master Mu think?"
Mu Chenfeng looked at the bright moon slowly rising in the sky, and smiled slightly on the corner of his mouth, "This is Ling'er's style of doing things, I would rather spend more effort than do anything that I owe to others." ”
"Let's go, let's go over and see, maybe there will be results tonight." Bai Yuntian was also very appreciative, so he pulled Mu Chenfeng to help, and he still couldn't let go of Ling'er in his heart.
Ling'er asked Nuo'er to find a remote place in the col for herself to lay a floor, she was not at ease if she was not here, so far it had reached a depth of about three meters, as expected, it should be found tonight or tomorrow.
"Miss, you can rest first, there are slaves and maids watching here, you can rest assured." Nuo'er covered the cup for Ling'er and persuaded her.
Nuo'er, this girl is so caring, she doesn't worry about Qingxi during the day, she has to take care of everything by herself before letting others send it. I also have to take time out to take care of myself, and I told her a few times in the evening to let her go back to rest, where is she willing to do it, she is still nesting in this mountain nest with herself to blow the cool breeze. Ling'er gratefully shook Nuo'er's cold little hand, "It's cold, you should wear more, be careful if you catch a cold, then Qingxi and I will be miserable, a child without a mother is like a grass." ”
Seeing that the young lady joked that she was like an old mother, Nuo'er was also funny, it seems that she is usually verbose enough, but as long as the three of them can be well, what if she really becomes an old mother?
The two girls snuggled up to each other and leaned against each other, using each other's body temperature to keep warm, and on this late autumn night, even in the mountains, they didn't feel how cold it was.
Suddenly, the sound of rock excavation stopped abruptly, and Ling'er suddenly woke up from her drowsiness, there was a new discovery? When you lift the quilt, you have to go around the rocks.
But isn't that right? If there is a new discovery, then the craftsmen should inform themselves, and at this moment suddenly there is no sound at all. Did you fall asleep? Ling'er guessed wildly, and the steps under her feet didn't know whether to advance or retreat.
"Ao Zhan, what do you want to do, what does that old witch have to do with you, and you cover her up so much?" Mu Chenfeng held a sword in his hand and surrounded Ao Zhan in the middle with Bai Yunfei.
Through the hazy moonlight, you can see the situation of the three of them on the verge of breaking out. Master duel, once the force is exerted, this time it is not necessarily the result of a certain party being caught, it is bound to fight to the death.
Ling'er wanted to persuade something, but her mouth opened and closed several times but she couldn't make a sound.
"Miss Ling'er, I, Ao Zhan, am not the wicked person, and what I have done is worthy of the conscience of heaven and earth, please let me out for Qing'er's sake."
"Uncle Ao's words are wrong, I have never intended to harm your old man, you can leave the Bihai Heavenly Palace with Honggu's body at any time. I will not stand in the way. ”
"I'm going to take one more person with me. She is no less important to me than Honggu, and she asks the girl to fulfill it."
Ling'er was stupid, and after thinking about it for a long time, he really couldn't think of anyone else here who had anything to do with him, did he want to let himself go to Ao Qing's funeral? But it doesn't look like it's asking for your own life, right? So what is it for?
Before Ling'er could figure it out. Mu Chenfeng said, "You want to take the old witch away?" ”
The sword in Ao Zhan's hand landed dangerously. Fu stabilized and said, "Stinky boy." Don't worry about the things you shouldn't be in charge of, last time it was for the sake of your old master of the Patrol Sound Building that he had done a lot of good things, and this time he will not easily lose to you if he recruits the old man again. ”
Ling'er looked at Ao Zhan in surprise. What kind of trouble is this, I was also confused by them, so I simply waved my hand and said, "You all put away your swords and speak, it's not too late to fight after the reason is clear, and this Bihai Heavenly Palace doesn't have my orders, no one wants to escape easily."
Bai Yuntian was convinced when he heard Ling'er say this, so he put away his sword and stood to see how Ao Zhan acted.
Mu Chenfeng also withdrew his sword, and a pair of eyes never left Ao Zhan, this time he was bound to track down.
"Come with me." Ao Zhan lowered his head in despair, turned around and walked towards the cliff.
"You don't play tricks, we will never be fooled." Mu Chenfeng vigilantly stopped Ling'er, who was about to follow.
"Believe it or not, that's all I say." After speaking, I saw Ao Zhan jump into the cliff and throw a chain casually.
Ling'er broke Mu Chenfeng and grabbed his wrist, stepped forward to squat down and pulled the chain, which was obviously left by Ao Zhan for himself, so what did he want to lead himself over to see?
Since he has come to this point, there is no need to think too much, Ling'er is considered to have fought hard, and climbed down the cliff with the chain in his hand.
Mu Chenfeng wanted to stop him again, but Bai Yuntian stretched out his hand to stop him, shaking his head at him and saying no.
The two of them also followed Ling'er slowly down to the bottom of the cliff.
This mountain cliff is more than ten zhang high, but the chain is gone in mid-air, Ling'er pulled the chain, stepped on the mountain stone and looked around, it was dark, and it was difficult for the moonlight to shine here.
"Hurry up, that old thing must have lied to us." Mu Chenfeng stepped on the rocks and persuaded Ling'er uneasily.
"Come in." Ao Zhan's voice was exceptionally loud in the darkness.
Ling'er took advantage of the light of the night pearl and saw that there was indeed a round stone at his feet one meter away, which seemed to be caused by being trampled on by people often, otherwise why would this cliff have such a shape.
One stepped on the stone with great force, and then burrowed into a cave in the middle of the cliff. Mu Chenfeng and Bai Yuntian followed closely behind and entered the cave one after another.
"Dead girl, you still found it, it seems that my wife's life should be extinguished, but you also got rid of those sluts for me, we will report it again, it's worth it."
"You are wrong, you have done a lot of evil yourself, and heaven will not tolerate it, but there is no hatred between me and you." Ling'er looked at the old witch who was meditating on the stone bed, and said with words.
The strong smell of blood in the cave, Mu Chenfeng looked around the stone wall, the craftsmen who originally built the weapons here had all been killed, although the corpses were not seen, but the scattered tools, the burning braziers, and the blood all over the ground had already explained everything.
"These craftsmen were forcibly captured by you when they were young, and they never saw the light of day for the rest of their lives, how did you do it?" Mu Chenfeng pulled out his long sword and pointed at the old witch who was still closing her eyes, his face turned white with anger, and he hated that he hadn't taken her life earlier, otherwise he wouldn't have lost the lives of these innocent craftsmen in vain.
Ling'er heard Mu Chenfeng say this, and only then did she notice everything in the cave, it seems that the old thing killed these craftsmen to take blood for his own drinking when he was demonic, it was really vicious, and if he didn't kill her, he couldn't comfort the souls who died under her hands.
"You spare my mother, she doesn't have a few days to live." Ao Zhan knelt on his knees, old tears were in his eyes.
What kind of ghost is this, the old witch, Ao Zhan, Honggu, Ao Qing, a series of names swirled rapidly in Ling'er's mind, she began to dizzy, and for a while she really couldn't imagine the little entanglement between them, and she was stupid in place.
Mu Chenfeng and Bai Yuntian were also stupid, they thought that there might be some collusion between Ao Zhan and the old witch, and it was also for some improper interests between each other, but the situation in front of them was obviously beyond their imagination.
"Don't fool us with these, old witch, you are afraid that you will not be able to repay the blood debt you owe even if you die ten times, so let's arrest it, this young master may be able to keep a whole corpse for you." Mu Chenfeng saw that he was swinging his sword and was about to go up to seek battle.
"Whether you believe it or not, she is indeed my mother-in-law, when she allowed Honggu to give birth to Qing'er and sent it back to Aozhai, you can see that my relationship with her is extraordinary."
Ling'er thought carefully for a moment, this statement was somewhat credible, according to her understanding of the old witch, she really hadn't seen her so kind to anyone.
"Hahaha, those four sluts never thought that I would have descendants in this world until they died, they thought they could control me, but I wanted to do what I wanted to do. In order to keep Zhan'er, I promised the owner of Ao Zhai at that time not to invade Ao Zhai again, and let him help me raise my children, but he didn't know that Zhan'er was my biological flesh and blood. Later, I asked Honggu to give birth to Qing'er for me, but I didn't expect that since they killed my grandson, I would inevitably go to the underworld to find them to pay for my life. ”
Ling'er was speechless, she didn't expect that there were such unexpected things in the world, and she had never seen such a heart-wrenching plot as a person whose soul pierced the two worlds. Looking at Ao Zhan who was kneeling on the side, I really don't know whether to feel sorry for him or sympathize with him, and Ao Qing, if he hadn't gone, I don't know what he would think about facing such a grandmother.
"My mother is already exhausted, you will allow me, a son, to accompany her for a few more days, I have love and hate for her in this life, but at this point, I only want to be able to send her to old age, I promise not to let her leave here half a step, as for the debt she owes, after she dies, I will definitely find you to apologize, and when the time comes, I will fight and kill, and listen to it."
Ling'er turned her head to look at Mu Chenfeng and Bai Yuntian, but the two of them didn't react for a while. Ling'er sighed and said helplessly: "I believe in you once, and I hope you keep your promise, and we will meet on the cliff in ten days." (To be continued......)
