Chapter 21: Master Mystery

Ruoxin followed Bai Ruoyin into the house and found that the furnishings in the room were elegant and chic, and it took a lot of thought to arrange all this at the beginning. After entering the house, Bai Ruoyin asked Ruoxin to wait for a while, and then walked behind the desk, not knowing what to pick up. Ruoxin stood at the door, looking around.

Bai Ruoyin's temperament is quite similar to the master when he lived in the mountains, everything is handled meticulously, not as casual and lazy as her, Bai Ruoyin is very strict in dealing with things, no matter how big or small, and the house is spotless and orderly. Things are like people, and it is not difficult to imagine the owner's temperament when looking at the house to the extent that it is a little cold. Sweeping her eyes one by one, she found that there were several sets of men's clothes on the wooden cabinet next to the bed, Ruoxin's gaze stayed on it for a moment, and then moved away.

Bai Ruoyin, who was behind the desk, bent down and took out a palm-sized wooden box from the drawer of the desk. The wooden box looks very old, the paint on it has long since peeled off, and the wood that exposes the main body also shows an old dark black.

Bai Ruoyin put her hand on the wooden box for a moment, her half-constricted eyes had a contemplative look, but her quiet face still did not change, and after a moment of silence, she raised her head and called to Ruoxin who was standing at the door: "Come here." ”

Walking to the desk, Bai Ruoyin glanced at her, then opened the wooden box and took out something wrapped in an old silk handkerchief from inside. Ruoxin didn't know Bai Ruoyin's purpose, looked at her suspiciously, unfolded the silk handkerchief, and Bai Ruoyin picked up one of the things wrapped in it and handed it to Ruoxin.

A stone?

The black stone without any impurities is particularly conspicuous in the white palm of the white one, and the diamond surface of the stone is smooth, and only one side has obvious traces of fracture.

"What is this?" Ruoxin looked at Bai Ruoyin and asked puzzled as she motioned for what she had taken.

"Soul Stone."

Ruoxin was stunned, "Isn't the Soul Suppression Stone in the hands of King Yingning?" ”

And didn't King Ying Ning admit it himself?

Still is...... Was he lying to her?

"Ying Ruining does have a piece in his hand." Bai Ruoyin looked at the worried Ruoxin and continued: "A hundred years ago, the Soul Suppression Stone was obtained by Zhongyang from Ke Languo, and Zhongyang asked Tianxuan to collect my soul and force it into reincarnation. Because the priest of the Bu clan was destroyed in the flesh, his soul was scattered, and before Tianxuan set up a formation, he first fixed my soul with the soul suppression stone, and the soul suppression stone was divided into two on that day. ”

Ruoxin listened to Bai Ruoyin narrating her unknown things, and there was a slight doubt in her eyes.

Bai Ruoyin knew what she was thinking, and said flatly: "These are also what Zhongyang told me later. ”

Ruoxin raised her lips and smiled, nodded, and expressed her understanding, but she didn't know what Bai Ruoyin's purpose was in showing her this stone. Bai Ruoyin's expression remained unchanged, and he just said calmly: "The Soul Suppression Stone was given to you by Zhongyang. ”

Ruoxin's heart jumped, and the hand that was about to be stretched out paused. She raised her head, looked at Bai Ruoyin in amazement, and was speechless for a while.

It's not that I'm not surprised, the master has taken her in since she was a child, and what she has been doing is to retrieve Bai Ruoyin, who used to be kind to her, it can be said that it is to keep her body, which will contain Bai Ruoyin's soul in the future, and now that Master's goal has been achieved, why are you willing to help her?

She still remembered what the master said to her when he came to Tianxuan to wake up Bai Ruoyin.

The master said that their master-apprentice relationship was broken when she went down the mountain, although she still had a little affection for the master at the beginning, but she still had self-knowledge, and for Bai Ruoxin and her person, there was really no value in the master's heart.

Looking down at the Soul Suppression Stone in Bai Ruoyin's hand, Ruoxin frowned slightly and asked in a low voice, "...... Why? ”

Seeing that Ruoxin hadn't taken the soul stone for a long time, Bai Ruoyin simply put the stone on the table in front of Ruoxin, turned around and walked to the window, her long black hair was gently brushed in front of her, and in the direction of her long hair flying, she saw the open window opposite Qinghu.

His eyes swept over the figure in the window who only stayed for a moment and then left, Bai Ruoyin's expression was gloomy, and he said lightly: "I didn't ask him, if you want to know the reason, you can ask yourself." ”

Handing over the Soul Suppression Stone to Ruoxin is equivalent to making a decision, the elders are still hearing what they said yesterday, and she also knows that to revive the Bu clan and restore her full ability, it is indeed the easiest and most effective way to recover Ruoxin's soul. Huang Fuxian handed over the Soul Suppression Stone to her and asked her to give it to Ruoxin, but she really didn't understand his intentions.

Maybe she should say that since he came back, she couldn't understand everything he had done.

......

Ruoxin pondered for a moment, but still reached out and wrapped the soul suppression stone in the old silk handkerchief and put it into her arms.

Master's current approach is to compensate for everything they have done to her, or for some other purpose, after all, she only wants to save her life now, and the specific reason does not need to be investigated.

Looking up at Bai Ruoyin standing in front of the window, Ruoxin smiled quietly: "Then ask the high priest to thank the master for me." ”

Bai Ruoyin turned around, and the expression in his eyes returned to his previous calmness. As a high priestess, she was able to control her emotions very well and would not let too many miscellaneous things disturb her mind, and it was because of this that she could make herself the purest and strongest high priest in the history of the Bu clan.

She nodded faintly, and then spoke: "Your current body is no different from that of ordinary people, as long as you put the soul suppression stone that has melted the blood of Ke Lanshen close to your body, you can maintain your current state, and you don't need to extradite yang qi anymore." ”

After Ruoxin listened, she was slightly stunned and didn't make a sound, just lowered her eyes slightly, as if she was thinking deeply.

Bai Ruoyin knew that as long as Ruoxin could collect the male yang energy of Yang or Extreme Yin, she would be able to keep her consciousness from dissipating, but it was absolutely impossible for her to have the current effect. Ruoxin's current situation is no different from ordinary people, the yin qi on her body has almost disappeared, there are only a handful of people in the world who have this ability, who is helping Ruoxin behind, she vaguely guessed, but she didn't break it, just said: "The fetus in my womb is the flesh and bone of the Ke Lan God, and it has the ability of the gods, so as long as it attracts a little fetal bone and blood, it can also be integrated with the soul stone." ”

Ruoxin lowered her head and looked at Bai Ruoyin's abdomen, now that it is calculated, the fetus is four months old, looking at Bai Ruoyin's slightly bulging lower abdomen, Ruoxin's heart swelled with subtle and complex emotions.

Her body has always stayed in the appearance of leaving the soul, so although the child's soul is in her belly, her body has never changed, and seeing Bai Ruoyin's slightly convex lower abdomen with her own eyes, she really feels that she is a mother.

Seeing that Ruoxin was silent, Bai Ruoyin said lightly: "Drawing that blood will not hurt the fetus, but it is not a day to take blood, and in three days, I will send someone to send the blood to Yingning Palace." ”

After a slight pause, Bai Ruoyin explained: "Now that there is only half of the Soul Suppression Stone, even if you melt the blood of the Ke Lan Divine Envoy, it may not necessarily keep you safe, so it is better for you to find the other half as soon as possible." ”

"I see." Ruoxin nodded, and smiled at Bai Ruoyin: "However, I don't understand why you want to help me like this?" ”

After Bai Ruoyin glanced at Ruoxin, he slowly walked towards the door and said quietly: "I'm not helping you, I'm just agreeing to one person." ”

......

Walking out of Xiaozhu with Bai Ruoyin one after another, Ruoxin thought of the purpose of her coming here, so she asked, "Are Bai Rong and Rouge okay now?" ”

Bai Ruoyin didn't look back, but replied lightly, "Bai Rong is still in a coma, and Rouge has already left." ”

"Left?" Ruoxin was stunned for a moment and asked, "Where did she go?" ”

"She woke up in Wanchun County, stayed for a few days, and then left."

"She was still wounded at the time." Ruoxin's tone was slightly anxious, and she asked, "Why didn't you keep her?" ”

Bai Ruoyin stopped and looked at her sideways, the expression on his face was calm and calm, and he said indifferently: "She is not from the Bu clan, and life and death have nothing to do with me." ”

Buzzing in her ears, Ruoxin choked, staring at Bai Ruoyin with wide eyes, angry but speechless in her heart.

She knew that Bai Ruoyin was born cold, and everything was done in her heart, but she maintained the standards of the clansmen in her heart, but Bai Ruoyin also had her own memories and should know the relationship between Rouge and her, why could she treat it so indifferently?

Gritting her teeth, Ruoxin said, "What about Bai Rong?" I want to meet him. ”

Bai Ruoyin looked at her and said slowly: "Bai Rong is in the Bu clan hall, his soul condensation is only a little short, and now it is the last moment, and he can't be disturbed at all." If you want to see him, come back in three days, and I will arrange for you to meet him. ”

Ruoxin took a deep breath and pondered for a moment, she knew Bai Rong's situation, and she couldn't be in a hurry, so she nodded and left.

......

Bai Ruoyin sent Ruoxin and the master and servant of the Guan family away, so he followed the previous route to the place where the Bu clan was now settled.

As soon as the Bu clan returned to Beijing, they took over the royal sacrifice again, and there were a lot of things to deal with. Bai Ruoyin spends most of his day discussing some matters in the clan with the elders and assigning their respective tasks. It wasn't until the sun set that she finished handling today's business in the clan that she went to the ancestral hall.

Since returning to Beijing, Bai Rong has been staying in the new ancestral hall of the Bu clan, and after calculating the time, he will indeed come to his senses in the next two or three days. After feeding Bai Rong the medicine that melted his own blood and drinking it, Bai Ruoyin walked to the middle of the altar and sorted out the things to be prepared for the royal family in a month.

The white face lying on the Qinghan stone was still quiet, as if sleeping. After some time, his hand trembled almost imperceptibly, and then, his eyelids moved slightly, and he slowly opened his eyes. In his hazy vision, he saw a white shadow on the altar not far away, Bai Rong closed his eyes weakly and rested for a while, then opened his eyes again, and when the vision gradually became clear, he slowly raised his eyes to stare at the familiar back.

Sensing the subtle changes in Bai Rong's aura behind him, Bai Ruoyin turned around and met a pair of dark and deep eyes.
