Chapter Seventy-Four: Love Prison (1)
Chapter Seventy-Four: Love Prison (1)
"Yu ...... Uncle Yu? Chu Mo had mixed feelings in her heart, looking at that familiar face, she couldn't help but have red eyes, and hurriedly leaned over to help the old housekeeper who had taken good care of her since she was a child, "You also followed your father to Lingcheng?" ”
The old man was still kneeling on the ground, his wrinkled face was full of loving smiles, and his cloudy eyes were surging with a little light, as if a long-drowned man suddenly saw hope.
Chu Mo didn't understand why such a feeling was surging in his heart for a while, so he heard the old man mutter, "You are finally here...... so I had to help him again, and said with a slight annoyance, "Uncle Yu, if you don't get up again...... Mo'er will kneel down for you." ”
Only then did Chu Yu realize his gaffe, and hurriedly stood up beside him and said respectfully, "Yes...... The old slave lost his temper......"
"Father honors him ......"
"The head of the house is waiting for you in the hall!" Chu Yu arched his hand and made a gesture of "please" in the palace. The disciples behind him instantly divided into two columns, stood opposite each other, bowed slightly, and gave way to the main way. This is already a relatively grand welcome.
"Thank you, Steward Chu!" The five teenagers bowed to the old man in unison as a sign of gratitude. Then, he walked towards the house.
However, Chu Mo stopped in place, half-raising his head and looking at the sky.
The clouds in the sky were rolling, slightly gloomy, and it looked like black clouds were crushing the city. The wind lifted her long jet-black hair, and the light veil on her skirt, which set off her whole person like a fairy. She stood there, like a smart picture that she never got tired of seeing, and her body was filled with an inexplicable sense of sadness.
Her back was straight, and her expression was sluggish, revealing a slight timidity.
"Miss......" Chu Yu reminded softly, pulling back Chu Mo's thoughts, "Let's go in......"
Chu Mo then walked away.
"Something...... It's time to end ......" the old man sighed as he looked at the rolling sky.
Lingcheng Chu Mansion, hall.
The simple and solemn facilities, the simple and elegant furnishings, and the disciples of the Chu family who have traveled along the way frequently salute. Before Chu Mo and the others entered the hall, they saw a middle-aged man dressed in a dark blue Chu clan uniform pacing out of the hall hurriedly.
The man was thin and tall, with a slender and fair face, with a warm smile, it was Chu Yu.
It's a personal welcome!
Yun Lingxiu and the others immediately stopped and bowed their hands to express their respect and gratitude to this famous predecessor in the vast continent.
Chu Yu smiled gently, his eyes swept over the teenagers in front of him one by one, and said with a smile, "Since ancient times, heroes have been teenagers!" Welcome to the Humble House! ”
"Thank you, Senior Chu!"
Chu Yu's gaze finally stayed on the beautiful girl's face, and various complex emotions such as concern, guilt, and relief flashed in his eyes, and finally only converged into one sentence, "Mo'er...... Grew up. ”
Chu Mo lowered her eyes and looked at her toes without saying a word.
Chu Yu sighed, waved his hand inward, made a "welcome" gesture, and took the lead in the hall.
There are two rows of hospitality tables and chairs in the hall, and tea has been placed on them. Yun Lingxiu and the others sat down in turn, and some disciples offered snacks. After greeting for a while, Yun Lingxiu raised the previous question, "Senior Chu, we have entered the Spirit City this time because of the guidance of the Ember Beads. The formation of this seal is in the Spirit City. However, as soon as they entered the city, the Ember Bead would lose all their senses, and they would not be able to guide the specific location of the formation. Therefore, the juniors came to harass the seniors and ask for the reason. I would like to ask my seniors to relieve us of our difficulties and help us to seal them. ”
"This ......," Chu Yu pondered for a moment and said sincerely, "After you are all big clans, you must know that there will be enchantments in the territory of each clan for protection. ”
Seeing that the teenagers all nodded in agreement, Chu Yu continued, "Lingcheng is no exception. There is a Lingkun Array in this city for protection, and the Lingkun Array has the ability to interfere with the tracking of magic weapons. Presumably, it is precisely because of this that the Ember Bead cannot guide the exact position of the formation. ”
"Can Senior Chu open the enchantment?" Nan Rongpu Chu immediately said, "As long as you find the location of this formation, the seal will only be for a moment, and it will not affect the safety of the city!" ”
"It's true." Chu Yu's face was solemn, and his words were sincere and calm, "The enchantment of the Spirit City is in the reinforcement period, and it must not be opened rashly, otherwise the spiritual power will surge, and once it gets out of control, the consequences will be unimaginable!" ”
"Reinforcement?" Chu Mo frowned, "The reinforcement period of the Chu family's enchantment is at the end of the year, and now it's only early autumn, why is Lingcheng so different?" ”
"Mo'er ......" Even in the face of his daughter's questioning, Chu Yu is still gentle and moderate. He looked at Chu Mo with concern, the love and gentleness in his eyes almost overflowed his eyes, and then pressed back to the bottom of his heart, and only explained softly, "You grew up in Lido since you were a child, and you don't know about Lingcheng. After all, Lingcheng is located in a remote place, which is a bit special. ”
"How special?" Chu Mo suddenly raised his head and looked at his father, who had not seen him for more than a year, and his tone suddenly sharpened. But suddenly, the girl's beautiful eyes were suddenly filled with tears, just like the grievances and incomprehension that suddenly surged up in her heart.
Chu Mo suddenly lost control of his emotions, everyone looked at each other, and the atmosphere became stalemate.
"Mo'er......" Chu Yu was about to say something, when a disciple hurriedly came from outside the hall, interrupting the sudden dispute between the father and daughter, who had not seen each other for a long time. Yun Lingxiu inexplicably felt that the middle-aged man who was on the main seat with a gentle and calm face seemed to be relieved.
Chu Mo still looked at her father with tears in her eyes, like a child with a temper, stubbornly and stubbornly wanting an answer.
Yun Lingxiu looked at her, his heart ached, and some scenes from not long ago suddenly appeared in front of him.
"I don't have a childhood...... "The girl's always indifferent face was furrowed, and her expression was stunned for a moment.
"I have to succeed...... Those who participated in the trial. "Halfway up the east mountain of Nameless Island, the place of the Heavenly Trial, the young girl turned her head to look into the distance, half of her face hidden in the night, and she couldn't see it really. At that time, her voice was light and psychedelic, and the exit dissipated in the wind, but Yun Lingxiu remembered it clearly.
"Because," she said, "that's ...... It's time to leave the house. ”
Because then you can leave the house.
Yun Lingxiu looked at Chu Mo's side face, she seemed even sadder than then. He pressed his chest, which felt slightly suffocated.
And I, still looking at her side face as I did then, seemed to ...... It's even more distressing than then......
Yun Lingxiu looked at Chu Mo, and then at Chu Yu, who was on top of the main seat.
The disciple had already bowed to everyone in the hall, and then walked straight to Chu Yu's side and whispered something in his ear.
Chu Yu's face suddenly changed greatly, and he politely greeted several teenagers, and instructed Steward Chu to arrange a place for him, and then went outside.
Chu Mo still maintained a posture of raising his head, looking at his father's back, stubbornly refusing to retreat. Chu Yu walked towards the layout step by step, the tears in her eyes were heavier, and her expression gradually dimmed, just like the loss in her heart.
"Senior Chu!"
At this moment, Yun Lingxiu stood up and stopped the seniors who were hurrying out more abruptly, and there was a slight rudeness in his words, "Did something happen?" Now that the younger generation is already in the spiritual city, can they do their part? ”
These words are already out of line and rude. Yun Yuan looked at Yun Lingxiu and frowned puzzled.
The rest of the crowd was even more embarrassed.
Only Chu Mo's eyes widened, and there was a hint of emotion in his slightly unbelievable eyes.
