Chapter 228: Disappearing into thin air
The maid sent hot water for the toiletries, and when the two of them cleaned up, they brought a sumptuous breakfast, and they didn't talk much, Ji Ruhuan wanted to find some opportunity to talk to the maid, but she couldn't find it.
Of course, Ji Ruhuan can't do nothing, if he doesn't do anything, it will definitely arouse suspicion, if people find out the only way for them to pass on the news, then they will really be trapped in this valley all the time.
So after breakfast, Ji Ruhuan began to clamoring to see the patriarch of the Wu clan.
Of course, the response was the same as before, that they should live in this valley in peace, and that the patriarch would come to see her at that time.
After making a fuss, they felt that it was almost over, so the two of them went to the valley again, and before they knew it, they went to the creek again.
Afraid that someone would be suspicious, Ji Ruhuan simply took off her shoes and socks to play in the water by the stream, and grabbed fish and shrimp, although she had no internal strength, but the devil's hellish training in the past two years has also made her much stronger than ordinary people, but she caught a lot of fish and shrimp and planned to add food to noon.
Looking at Ruhuan, who was busy in the stream, a gentle smile appeared on Dugu Chiyan's face.
He also wanted to go into the water with him and play with her, but Ruhuan said that he was still very weak and didn't let him go down.
Listening to Ruhuan's cheerful laughter that echoed in the valley from time to time because he caught the fish and shrimp, if he wasn't trapped in this valley, Dugu Chiyan felt that such a day was actually quite good.
I didn't think so until the afternoon, Ji Ruhuan, who was too idle, suddenly remembered to teach him to practice the five poultry operas for some reason.
There are so many boxing and swordsmanship, although there is no internal strength, it does not prevent him from being able to practice, but this little girl insisted that he was weak at the beginning of his serious illness, and he was not suitable for practicing anything else.
Of course, there is nothing wrong with practicing the five fowl plays, but that action, he made it by a slender and tall man, it is really a bit ...... It's unsightly.
Seeing that the woman on the side was so happy with a smile, Dugu Chiyan sighed and began to practice the next move.
The maid guards who were staring at this side not far away couldn't help but hook the corners of their mouths, and at the same time sighed in their hearts, their holy maidens are really like the fairies, and their eyes are not bad, but it's a pity that they don't fit the hearts of the elders.
And at this time, outside the valley, Jin Ling, who had just woken up, was still sighing to the old man of Tianji, "I thought that you Penglai Island was just a few people on the island, but I didn't expect that you all had disciples in Dongwu? β
The old man of Tianji sighed, "I haven't used this outside power for many years, but I didn't expect to ...... for that kid now."
Jin Ling frowned slightly, and said dissatisfied, "What, you still planned to see death and not be saved?"
The old man of Tianji hurriedly answered, "How come, that's my apprentice, besides, even if there is no kid, then there is no Xiaoliu to save." β
Jin Ling raised her eyebrows, "Why are you so reluctant to listen to your tone?"
The old man of Tianji sighed, "You should know that Penglai Island is a coveted existence, and it has finally fallen silent over the years, so that the world can only be regarded as a legend, and now it is suddenly born, I am afraid that it will make waves again." β
Jin Ling also fell silent, she had been in the Jianghu Inn for many years, and those who openly and secretly inquired about the whereabouts of Penglai Island, of course she knew what their purpose was.
At this time, Chunxiao hurriedly came in from outside and hurriedly said, "Master, the village of the Wu clan suddenly disappeared, and the people of the Wu clan have disappeared. β
The old man of Tianji frowned slightly, and said to Jin Ling, who was sitting on the edge of the bed, "You have a good rest, I'll go and have a look." β
Jin Ling had already sat on the edge of the bed with her feet raised and said, "I'll go with you." β
The old man of Tianji knew that he was afraid that he would not be able to resist the golden bell, and it was not easy to stop him, so he only asked people to prepare a comfortable carriage.
By the time they arrived at the village where the Wu clan was located, the disciples recruited by the old man had already surrounded the village.
When the leader saw the old man of Tianji coming, Shi Li said, "Your Lord, all the places in the village have been investigated, but there is no one. β
Jin Ling was helped out of the carriage by the little maid that the old man Tianji had just found for her, and said, "Let's go, go in and have a look." β
The group went directly to the location of the secret room, Xiaohua Dongxue and others had already led people to chisel open the stone wall, and the stone wall was still the secret room, but unfortunately there was nothing in the secret room, even the meditation platform was gone.
Xiaohua walked around the hall anxiously, eager to turn this secret room upside down, but unfortunately, this secret room was empty, and no trace could be found.
On the side, Chunxiao said, "It's the same in other places, including the nearby villages related to the Wu Clan, it's the same, there's nothing. β
The old man of Tianji looked at the golden bell on the side, "You are originally a member of the Wu Clan, do you know that the Wu Clan has other places to settle down besides here?"
Jin Ling bit her lip and replied, "I was sent to Master with my sister since I was a child, and when we come back, the Wu people will be scattered in these nearby villages, but I have heard the older generation talk about it, and I just regarded it as a legend, and I didn't take it to heart." β
The old man of Tianji walked out with the golden bell in his hand, and asked, "Tell me, what kind of legend is it." β
Jin Ling responded, "Legend has it that the Wu people did not originally live here, but lived in a hidden mountain, blessed by the mountain god, outsiders could not enter, and the Wu people generally did not come out, and they have been living a life of isolation and no quarrel with the world. β
"And the saints of the witch clan are all dedicated to the mountain gods, and each generation of mountain gods and saints gives birth to the next generation of witch saints with the purest blood. β
"It's just that there is a generation of saints who secretly went out of the mountain, fell in love with the man outside the mountain, and gave birth to a son, which completely angered the mountain god, so the Wu people were driven here, and then settled in this area. β
Chunxiao only shook his head when he heard this, "No, since it is a mountain god, it should be immortal, right?" Every generation of saints is dedicated to the mountain gods to give birth to the next generation of saints, this is simply, completely devoid of ethics, this is also ridiculous." β
The old man of Tianji's eyes narrowed slightly, this demeanor was somewhat similar to Dugu Chiyan, and he said, "Maybe the so-called mountain god is not a mountain god, but a force or family that we don't know?"
On the side, Jin Ling frowned and said, "That being the case, why did the Wu clan patriarch find you in the first place and let your sister marry you, saying that you can give birth to a saint with the purest blood?"
The old man of Tianji replied, "I think they are looking for me, it should be because of my pure yang bloodline, this pure yang bloodline, what may be related to the so-called mountain god in their mouths." β
Jin Ling turned his head to look at the old man of Tianji, "What is the situation now? This so-called mountain god suddenly forgave the Wu clan and extended a helping hand? But why was Zishu also taken captive with him?"
