Luochen understood Chu Wuxian's mood at this time, and when he arrived at this Black Water Palace, the doubts in Luochen's heart became stronger and stronger, and he looked back from time to time to take a look at Chu Wuxian.

Seeing Chu Wuxian looking at the grand palace, he squeezed his red lips and asked, "Brother, do you really want to go in?"

Brother?

Shui Xuanzi stood in front of Chu Wuxian, and when he heard Luochen shouting Brother Chu Wuxian, he couldn't help but sigh secretly in his heart: It's time to come, it's still here. What should happen, on your own, still has to happen.

The corners of Chu Wuxian's mouth twitched, he crossed Shui Xuanzi, walked to Luochen's side, and said, "Since you are here, naturally go in." ”

After that, Luochen didn't say anything more, took Mu Hanyu's hand, and led the way in front, and the group then followed in.

Walking across the pontoon bridge, the guards saw that it was the princess who came, and naturally let them go.

Stepping through the black lacquer gate, zigzags, full of pavilions and pavilions, luxurious and beautiful, Mu Hanyu had lived here a few days ago, Chu Wuxian and Mu Yixuan saw such a magnificent scene for the first time, and their hearts were inevitably a little apprehensive, and they cautiously followed the dust.

Walking a hundred feet away, suddenly a pile of ruins came into view, looking at the situation, it should be a magnificent palace collapsed and formed, at this time, under the illumination of the surrounding lights, silently lying in the dust, and the surrounding magnificent and beautiful palace seems incompatible.

Chu Wuxian was a little surprised, not knowing why there was a ruin in the middle of the many palaces.

According to the direction, this ruin is exactly in the center of the entire palace, if the guess is right, it should be the place where the patriarch handles government affairs and lives, why is it a pile of ruins?

Luochen and Shui Xuanzi were not surprised, and continued to walk towards the middle from a path in the middle of the ruins, and Chu Wuxian didn't ask anything.

More than a dozen zhang away, I vaguely saw that in the middle of the ruins, there was a small flat land, and on the flat ground, several lonely thatched houses were built crookedly here.

Chu Wuxian's brows furrowed tighter and tighter: What kind of place is this?

Chu Wuxian, who was becoming more and more suspicious, walked more and more slowly.

Luochen looked back and saw that Chu Wuxian was at the back, so he beckoned Chu Wuxian and shouted, "Brother, it's here!"

Arrived?

This is where the legendary Blackwater Patriarch lives?

Could it be a thatched house?

The thatched house, although not far away, still does not seem to have a clear outline. What was it like? It was low, it was bloated, and it was a hollow pit, and the house was all in the pit. Outside, there were walls, all made of variegated stone, but they were so crumbling that they were just piles of rubble.

There is no sunlight all year round, it is damp, dark, and mossy all over.

There were more and more questions in Chu Wuxian's heart.

Shui Xuanzi was the closest to Chu Wuxian, seeing the question on Chu Wuxian's face, Shui Xuanzi's own expression became more and more complicated, and he really wanted to tell Chu Wuxian all the causes and consequences of the matter now.

However, it was not the time yet, when Chu Wuxi's demonic nature gradually grew to a certain point, when he could break the assembly, he could tell him all this.

Otherwise, now with red lips and white teeth, empty words, even if he cries and shouts, can he believe that this ruin, as well as the dignified patriarch of the Black Water Clan, Murong Shuang, can live in this dark thatched house for eighteen years?

Murong Shuang should live a very happy life.

Not only should you have abundant materials, but also you should have a good mood.

But......

Shui Xuanzi sighed, shook off Chu Wuxian and the others, walked to the front alone, walked towards a thatched house with a faint light, walked to the door, respectfully, bent over and saluted: "Patriarch, the national teacher Shui Xuanzi took Chu Wuxian and others to ask to see!"

After a long time, the room replied weakly: "Yes, come in!"

The soft voice seems to be the beginning of a serious illness, no, it should be like a terminal illness.

Could it be that the patriarch had a serious illness?

Shui Xuanzi squeaked and pushed open the door, and took the lead in entering the grass house, Luochen beckoned Mu Hanyu and Chu Wuxian to go in together, Han Mei stopped Mu Yixuan, who was about to go in with his feet, and said in a cold voice: "You are here, the house is small, and it can't accommodate so many people." ”

Suoxin looked inside, frowned, the room was already crowded, and it was difficult for him to squeeze in again, so he had to stand outside with Han Mei Mu Yixuan.

As soon as Chu Wuxian stepped into the grass house, a rotten breath rushed towards him, and Chu Wuxian couldn't help but sigh: In this grass house, the conditions of the grass house are not as good as the grass house he lives in Phantom Water Town.

The lights were dim, cramped and low, damp and cold, and there was nothing in the room, not even a simple wooden table and wooden stool!

Only the flickering oil lamp hanging on the wall is the only ornament in this thatched hut.

Shui Xuanzi glanced at Chu Wuxian coldly, and Chu Wuxian saw that there was resentment, hatred, and dissatisfaction in his eyes!

Why is that?

"Who is Traceless?" a delicate voice sounded, and the voice sounded cold, chilling.

Chu Wuxian hurriedly squeezed past Mu Hanyu, walked to the front, and took a look, only to see a middle-aged woman sitting on a simple wooden bed, with a beautiful face, a little wind and frost, and a verdant hairpin was obliquely inserted on the green silk raised high, and a dark red glass hung from the hairpin, trembling with the woman's movement. The black smoke gauze skirt embroidered with the faintly visible golden silk god bird, accompanied by a pale yellow simple belt, looks very dignified and luxurious, graceful and rich.

But the woman's face was pale and bloodless, calm as desolation and coldness, soft and weak up and down, and weak breathing as if she was dying.

It is a delicate flower, after passing the blazing summer, entering the late autumn, drifting in the cold wind!

Chu Wuxian felt sad for a while.

"It's Chu Wuxian down there!"

Chu Wuxian hurriedly bowed down and didn't get up for a long time.

The woman is the patriarch Murong Shuang.

Patriarch Murong Shuang looked Chu Wuxian up and down, raised his slender arm that was weak and dry, and Luochen hurriedly stepped forward, leaning on the side of the queen mother, supporting Murong Shuang's arm with both hands.

"Good, good, born a talent, but also energetic, national teacher, you have worked hard, this person is worthy of a great responsibility, my Black Water Clan is blessed!"

Murong Shuang said so many words at once, and suddenly felt depressed, and he didn't mention it in one breath, and coughed a few times.

Chu Wuxian couldn't help but look at Luochen in disbelief, his eyes were full of questions: Is the patriarch sick? Or is his body weak?

Luochen and Chu Wuxian looked at each other, and couldn't help but have red circles in their eyes, their heads drooped, and they choked up.

Chu Wuxian was even more surprised, his eyes flowed, and he couldn't help but look at Shui Xuanzi: Why is this?

Shui Xuanzi gritted his steel teeth and said viciously: "Chu Wuxian, see it, this is Shangshen Luo's grudge because of ten thousand years of resentment, and he has nowhere to vent, making the patriarch and the old man poor and happy, and the annual cramps and broken bones, and the pain is heartbreaking, this is such a tragic situation! Just a few days ago, the god suddenly had a whim, and sent someone to torture the patriarch......"

Patriarch Murong Shuang waved his hand and signaled Shui Xuanzi to stop talking, and the national teacher Shui Xuanzi's voice was sour, but it also stopped abruptly.

Chu Wuxian was confused when he heard it, Shangshen Luo poured his face, and lived in the Xuanao Divine Palace, how could she do such a vicious thing?

Besides, what is this 10,000-year-old grudge?

Why do you want to torture people like this? How can a weak person endure cramps and broken bones?

What's more, the living conditions are so poor, I don't know how the patriarch Murong Shuang survived.

Patriarch Murong Shuang reluctantly smiled slightly, and said to Shui Xuanzi: "Don't say so much to the child, scare him." ”

After that, he reached out and touched Chu Wuxian's face, Chu Wuxian felt that Murong Shuang's hand was really cold, and there was no trace of temperature.

"Child, as long as I can protect my clan from the misery of life, I Murong Shuang will die without regrets, not to mention these small punishments. ”

Chu Wuxian listened, and his heart was filled with righteous indignation: Who made the Black Water Clan poor and weak, and the patriarch, why was he tortured by this inhuman?

The grief and indignation in his heart were unbearable, and Chu Wuxian actually forgot to ask about his life experience.

A few days ago, Princess Luochen just told Suo Xinhanmei and others to take care of herself, so that she and some clan members lived in the surrounding palaces, and she had never walked into this ruin, let alone see the grass house and the patriarch.

Now that I see it, from the words from the mouths of the patriarch and the national teacher, Mu Hanyu heard that the patriarch and the national teacher are suffering unbearable punishment and pain for the sake of the entire ethnic group.

This made Mu Hanyu's heart ache: the feeling she had never felt before, the depression she had never felt, as if this matter had a great relationship with her, made her feel unbearable.

Shui Xuanzi disdained Mu Hanyu's choked throat, and looked at each other coldly, which deepened the question in Mu Hanyu's heart: She who was far away in Phantom Water Town, and Chu Wuxian, who had just known each other for a short time, did something wrong to make the patriarch and the national teacher suffer such a big punishment? What can she do in the future? What can Chu Wuxian do?

A series of questions made Mu Hanyu's heart even more depressed.

Chu Wuxian knelt down on one knee in front of the bed and said to the patriarch Murong Shuang: "Patriarch rest assured, as long as I Chu Wuxian can do it, it will definitely be my duty!"

The corner of the patriarch Murong Shuang's mouth moved, and he nodded instead, and said to Luochen: "In the future, listen to the words of the national teacher, assist Chu Wuxi, and protect my Black Water Clan together......"

"The Queen Mother can rest assured that the things entrusted to me will definitely be done. My brother and I will definitely protect my Black Water Clan from misery, and the country and the people will be safe. ”

"Brother, he's ......"

As soon as Luochen's words fell, a trace of sparks suddenly popped out of Murong Shuang's dry eyes, and he looked at his daughter Luochen in surprise, and then looked at Chu Wuxian with a puzzled look, and finally fell on Shui Xuanzi.
