Chapter 549: The Truth That Is Right at Hand

It had been two months since Nan Yuchen left the Lingxu Palace, and Fu Ruolan had locked herself in the Qing Cultivation Room every day to study medical books.

Today, it is the end of the three-month training day, and the people who have gone down the mountain to experience the training have returned to the Lingxu Palace one after another.

The Lingxu Palace, which had been quiet for three months, was lively again.

Yi Lingling and Wen Mingxu returned to the Green Dragon Hall together, and the two of them looked very warm talking and laughing.

"I don't know how Ruolan has been doing in the past three months."

"The little junior sister is so clever, naturally she won't be bullied, but the senior brother is blindly worried!"

Yi Lingling heard Wen Mingxu's first words say greeting Fu Ruolan, and he pursed his lips a little unhappy, but he didn't show it.

Fu Ruolan heard the sound outside, and knew that Wen Mingxu and Yi Lingling were back, so she put down the medical book and went out to greet her.

"Senior sister, welcome back." Fu Ruolan knew that Yi Lingling liked Wen Mingxu, and in order to avoid misunderstanding, she called Yi Lingling first.

Sure enough, seeing Fu Ruolan so knowledgeable, the haze in Yi Lingling's heart was swept away, and a bright smile appeared on her face: "Little junior sister, have you missed me these days?" ”

"That's nature." Fu Ruolan saw Yi Lingling laughing, and she breathed a sigh of relief in her heart.

"In the past three months, my senior brother and I have traveled to a lot of places, and I also brought gifts to my little junior sister, I will take you to see it!"

Fu Ruolan nodded: "Thank you, senior sister." ”

Wen Mingxu shook his head a little helplessly, and sure enough, they were still two little girls who didn't grow up: "Then I'll leave first, and I'll come to see you another day." ”

After Wen Mingxu left the Blue Dragon Palace, Yi Lingling pulled Fu Ruolan to see the treasure she had found, and told her what she had seen and heard in the past three months, and Fu Ruolan had been listening with a gentle smile.

When Yi Lingling was tired of speaking, Fu Ruolan pretended to ask inadvertently: "It's been half a year since I came to Lingxu Palace, why don't there be three elders in Lingxu Palace?" Where did he go? ”

Hearing this, Yi Lingling's face changed slightly, and he looked around solemnly to make sure that no one else answered: "Little Senior Sister, you can just tell me this, but you must not mention it outside, especially in front of the Great Elder." ”

"Why?" Fu Ruolan was puzzled.

"Actually, I don't know very well, but a year before I came to the Spirit Void Palace, there were no three elders. I heard that the three elders betrayed the Spirit Void Palace and fled to the Heavenly Star. However, I don't know exactly who these three elders are. ”

"It's just that I heard that the Great Elder seems to have an ambiguous relationship with the Third Elder, and every year during the winter solstice, the Great Elder will stay in his secret room for seven days, because the winter solstice happens to be the birthday of the Third Elder."

"Don't ask the master about this, if the master knows that I told you these words, I will be miserable! The master will definitely punish me! Yi Lingling thought that Fu Ruolan was just curious, and she didn't think much about telling her about these things.

After all, in her opinion, she and Fu Ruolan can be regarded as sisters in the same sect, and there is nothing to hide about these things.

Fu Ruolan probably calculated, there are still ten days left to be the winter solstice.

Yi Lingling pulled Fu Ruolan and said for a long time, the time was not early, she was already tired after a long journey, and she went back to rest not long after.

Fu Ruolan returned to the courtyard, and Jingyun was standing at the door waiting for her: "Miss, you are finally back, dinner is ready." ”

"Why did you run out on your own again? Didn't I say you, you just stay in the room and wait for me! ”

"Miss, don't worry, I'll be fine." Jingyun gently patted Fu Ruolan's hand to express comfort.

Since the last time Jingyun was tricked by Mu Yao into going to Houshan and almost died, Fu Ruolan didn't allow Jingyun to go around anymore.

She looked at Jingyun's eyes wrapped in white cloth, and couldn't help but feel a sour feeling in her heart, and her heart ached.

It was because of her negligence that Jingyun was caught by Jing Ying'er on the happiest day of her life and made her what she is now.

After dinner, Fu Ruolan remembered what Yi Lingling said today, maybe she could find an opportunity to sneak into the Great Elder's secret room in ten days, and everything would fall into place at that time.

Bai Yilan's death must have something else hidden.

"Jingyun, in ten days, I may have to go out to deal with some things, at most half a month, at least seven days, you are waiting for me here."

"Miss, where are you going? Take me with you! Jingyun nervously grabbed Fu Ruolan's sleeve.

Fu Ruolan sighed: "Obedient, it's not a big deal, I'll be fine, you wait for me obediently, when I come back, maybe we can leave the Spirit Void Palace." ”

Jingyun knew that she was going to follow the young lady like she was now, and she was afraid that she could only drag her back.

So Jingyun pulled the corners of her mouth and showed a smile: "Then Miss be careful, I will definitely wait for you." ”

Fu Ruolan looked at Jingyun's wry smile, felt very uncomfortable, held Jingyun's hand and said, "Don't worry, I will definitely find a way to cure your eyes!" ”

In the next ten days, Fu Ruolan always went out early and returned late, preparing many things, including some self-defense medicines.

According to the observation of the past few days, Fu Ruolan roughly figured out the daily whereabouts of the Great Elder and the specific location of the secret room.

The night before the winter solstice, the Great Elder entered the secret room in the middle of the night, and Fu Ruolan followed cautiously and was not discovered.

There is a narrow and dark alley in the secret room, and at the end of the alley is a wooden door, the door is not locked, and a small crack is opened, and you can just see the inside when you stand outside the door.

Fu Ruolan cautiously approached the crack in the door and looked inside the secret room, only to see the Great Elder standing in front of a tablet with his hands in his hands, and the three sticks of incense seemed to have just been lit.

There is a portrait directly above the tablet, on which is a woman, but unfortunately the light in the secret room is dim, and Fu Ruolan is standing far away, so she can't see the woman's face in the portrait clearly.

Half an hour later, the Great Elder seemed to suddenly remember something and hurriedly left through the secret door of the secret room.

Fu Ruolan's heart suddenly beat violently, and the sound could be heard in the quiet secret room, now is a perfect opportunity, do you want to go in?

The truth is right in front of you.

After hesitating for a moment, Fu Ruolan still mustered up the courage to push open the door of the secret room and walked to the portrait in twos and threes.

The moment she saw the portrait, Fu Ruolan was stunned, the woman in the portrait had a face that was extremely similar to herself!

There is a small white text in the lower right corner of the portrait, and if she guesses correctly, this person should be her mother.

"How so? Could it be that what Mu Yao said is true? Fu Ruolan muttered.

Isn't Bai Yilan a country doctor, how can it have anything to do with the Lingxu Palace?

Fu Ruolan couldn't recover from the huge shock, and didn't notice the person quietly approaching behind her.

Suddenly, Fu Ruolan felt a sharp pain in her neck, her eyes went black, and she lost consciousness.
