Chapter Seventy-Three: The Missing Brother

Leng Chitong frowned, let go of the woman's hand, and didn't pay much attention to it.

"No...... I'm sorry, but I blamed me for not paying attention when I was walking. ”

The woman was stunned for a moment, then immediately realized that she had lost some of her temper and quickly apologized.

However, Leng Chitong only pretended that he hadn't heard anything, and continued to eat silently.

This guy is too crazy to ignore me so much!

The woman was still a nymphomaniac just now, but at this moment, she was already secretly dissatisfied with Leng Chitong's cold arrogance in her heart.

Squeak looked up and down at the strange person who suddenly appeared in front of him, and easily saw the strangeness.

"I said, what is the purpose of approaching him, a big sister who is dressed as a man?"

The squeaky fingers kept curling his long hair, and he looked up at the "man" standing in front of him with some curiosity.

As soon as he said this, Leng Chitong and the others immediately raised their heads and became vigilant.

The woman looked at her in surprise, and then a professional smirk appeared, and she pretended to be calm, "This little girl misunderstood, I didn't have any purpose, it was just an accident." ”

Knowing that her true gender had been revealed, after a few seconds, she lowered her voice and said mysteriously, "As for me, I disguised myself as a man just for convenience. ”

"You're really a woman, your eyesight is accurate enough!" Qiu Rong'er looked at the squeaks beside her in surprise.

"Petite, fine skin and tender flesh are just that, how can it not even have an Adam's apple? There is still a faint smell of rouge gouache on his body......"

Squeak and tell the details of what he had just observed.

"It doesn't seem strange that she's a girl who is away from home and hides her daughter's body......" Jiao Niang looked at this girl who looked weak and couldn't help herself, and muttered softly.

"You're afraid you deliberately pretended to twist your foot a little bit, right? Under normal circumstances, if you accidentally almost fell, you should be relieved to see that he helped you steady in time just now......"

Squeak said solemnly as he got up and walked over to the woman and looked at her with a perceptive look.

Squeak continued to speak: "However, I noticed that your expression just now was a little subtle, first looking at him stunned for a while, and then there was some disappointment in your eyes...... So, you're trying to pretend to be on purpose! Say, Who are you, what is the purpose of approaching us! ”

Squeak suddenly raised his voice and asked in a crisp voice.

The girl's body couldn't help but tremble slightly, she didn't know that she had inadvertently revealed so many flaws just now, she was dumbfounded all of a sudden, and suddenly she didn't know what to quibble.

"Bang Bang!"

After listening to these few sentences of detailed analysis of Qiu Rong'er, she once again threw herself to the ground with admiration for her squeaky and thin thoughts, and inadvertently applauded.

If I leave now, the clues related to my brother that I finally met will be broken, but if I reveal my identity casually, I don't know the origin of this group of people...... Will there be anything wrong then?

Just as the woman was hesitating about what words to prepare, the maid saw her revealing and quietly appeared beside her.

"Each ...... Ladies and gentlemen, our young lady is also playful for a while, and there is really no special purpose! ”

The maid tried to help her young lady out of the siege.

Suddenly, the woman became serious, and put one hand on her maid's mouth, "You don't have to help me fight sloppiness, when you get to this step of the field, you don't need to hide more!" ”

"But ......"

The maid was still a little uneasy and still wanted to dissuade her, but looking at her extremely determined eyes, she returned the book and lowered her head.

After thinking for a long time, the woman was finally ready to tell everything about herself.

This woman is none other than Hua Shimo, the owner of Hua's Villa, the pearl of Hua Shimo, Hua Yuzhu, who is now in the prime of her life.

She has a brother named Hua Yuxuan, who has just turned twenty years old this year, and was originally born to be a good seedling of cultivation, and has always been deeply valued by Hua Shimo, and has almost pinned her life's hopes on him.

It's a pity that when Hua Yuxuan was fifteen years old, he had a serious illness inexplicably, and although his life was saved, he fell ill with frailty.

Since then, he has been depressed and depressed, only feeling that he is really uncompetitive and has failed his father's painstaking cultivation.

Over the years, Hua Yuxuan has been immersed in reading all kinds of medical books and classics, just hoping to find some ways to cure his weak body.

Just last year, he saw a special herb called Thousand Petal Ice Lotus in a book of "Medicinal Herbs".

According to the book, this unique ice mist of the thousand-petal ice lotus has the most powerful effect on repairing the damaged physique.

Therefore, in this year, Hua Yuxuan really spent all kinds of mental and material resources in private, just to be able to find this magical plant.

Just three months ago, Hua Yuxuan came to Hua Yuzhu excitedly, saying that he had found out that the place in Hongshan was the most suitable for the growth conditions of Purple Snow Lotus, and he wanted to go to Hongshan in private, wanting to try his luck to find this thing.

The reason why he wants to do this is because this thousand-petal ice lotus has a special feature, as long as it leaves the place where it grows, it will immediately wither, so if you want to use this thing to repair your weak body, you have to go yourself.

However, you must know that Hongshan is the boundary of Leng's Villa, and Leng Yueming has always been Hua Shimo's rival, as early as more than ten years ago, Hua Shimo has always had an unwritten rule that anyone who is in Hua's Villa is not allowed to step into the boundary of Hongzhou for half a step.

Under such circumstances, Hua Yuxuan naturally did not dare to ask his father for the protection of the guards.

In the end, after saying goodbye to his sister Hua Yuzhu, he completely ignored her strong opposition to this matter, and quietly left Hua's Villa without hesitation.

Hua Yuzhu has been sleeping hard since Hua Yuxuan left Hua's Villa, for fear that something will happen to him when he is alone.

Especially in recent days, she has lost the news of Hua Yuxuan.

Hua Yuzhu counted the days with her fingers, and only felt that he should have come back a long time ago.

After all, Xiangzhou is close to the south of Hongzhou, and the two places are not too far away, however, he has not seen anyone for a long time.

Therefore, Hua Yuzhu still couldn't bear it, and after some planning, she finally pulled on her personal maid Xiaoxue, and the two of them secretly sneaked out of Hua's Villa disguised as men.

And just when Hua Yuzhu was worried that she hadn't found any news about Hua Yuxuan, she happened to catch up with the scene of Leng Chitong swinging in the ring.

However, the jade pendant that was used as a bet by Leng Chitong was like Hua Yuxuan's portable jade pendant "Heart Lock Jade".

On the day of Hua Yuxuan's seventeenth birthday, his mother went to the temple and spent a lot of money to get it, saying that he had found something to enlighten the monk and opened the light, which could bless the frail Hua Yuxuan I to be safe.

Hua Yuzhu remembers very well that once for this piece of heart-protecting jade, her father and mother had a lot of disputes.

Because Hua Shimo has never believed in ghosts and gods, and has never worshiped gods and Buddhas, he always feels that his wife is too superstitious, and he is afraid that she will teach Hua Yuxuan badly.

Now, in the face of such an important clue that was finally found, how could Hua Yuzhu be willing to let it go!

"Oh...... Could it be that you just deliberately pretended to be a stumbling person, and then planned to steal the jade pendant while there was chaos, so that you could see if the jade belonged to your brother? ”

After listening to Hua Yuzhu explain the truth of the matter, Squeak finally figured out her intention just now.

Hua Yuzhu nodded, but when facing the people in front of her, she obviously still maintained a trace of concern.

"You don't need to be afraid of us at all, this jade pendant was picked up by him, if we did something unsightly for this jade, how dare we take this thing out in public? Isn't that too ostentatious...... It's better to find a pawnshop directly! ”

Squeak saw the vigilance in Hua Yuzhu's eyes, and after finishing speaking, she winked at her innocently.

Obviously, Squeak's analysis was indeed reasonable, Hua Yuzhu couldn't help but exhale lightly, and then looked at Leng Chitong curiously, and said a little anxiously: "This Heart Lock Jade is really just what you picked up?" Can you show me? ”

Leng Chitong listened to Hua Yuzhu's narration, and suddenly recalled the blackened skeleton that he had met by chance in the Hongshan Otherworld that day.

At this time, Leng Chitong's heart knew that if what Hua Yuzhu said was true, then the truth was that Hua Yuxuan had already died in Hongshan, in the mouth of the purple-blooded bat beast.

Facing Hua Yuzhu's expectant eyes, he was suddenly a little stunned, and he felt a trace of compassion, and he couldn't bear to tell her the truth of the matter.

"Hmm...... On that day, several of us were forced to leave from Leng's Villa, and when we came down the mountain, we stumbled upon this jade pendant, so we picked it up, but we didn't see anyone. ”

Leng Chitong tried her best to pretend to be casual, and as she spoke, she took out the "Heart Lock Jade" from Hua Yuzhu's mouth and handed it to her.

Hua Yuzhu was delighted, she didn't expect the arrogant young man in front of her to be so easy to speak, and he took this thing out so easily, and hurriedly took it in front of her eyes to take a closer look.

"Not bad, not bad! This is my brother's heart lock! The missing corner in the lower left part was accidentally knocked off when I was joking with my brother before......"

When Hua Yuzhu discovered the inconspicuous flaw on the "Heart Lock Jade", she instantly blossomed, and excitedly pulled the maid next to her and screamed.

"I don't know if you can take me to the place where you picked up this thing, maybe my brother is near there right now!"

Hua Yuzhu pulled up the sleeves of Leng Chitong's shirt a little out of shape, looking very eager, wishing that she was already in Hongshan now.

Leng Chitong was silent for a few seconds before he slowly spoke, "I think, your brother wasn't there, because we didn't see anyone when we went down the mountain at that time, so you don't need to run this trip in vain." ”

After hearing this, Hua Yuzhu suddenly turned into a defeated rooster, completely lost the spirit of Fang Cai, and only cared about holding the jade pendant in her hand, as if she was worried about something.

"Since you can't find your brother's whereabouts, why don't you go back to Hua's Villa for the time being? What if your brother goes back? ”

Qiu Rong'er looked at Hua Yuzhu, who was a little depressed, and couldn't help but feel a little pitiful for her.

At this time, Squeak stared at Leng Chitong silently, and he could clearly see that there was something in his heart that was hiding from everyone.
