CHAPTER XXV

Dongfang Yu's mother, Luo, is a gentle woman, and Dongfang Yu's appearance is inherited from her.

"How old is the girl?" She asked with a smile.

Li Yan came back to his senses and replied softly, "Eighteen." ”

"Who else is in the house?"

She didn't want to be found by her senior sister and brothers, so she hid her from Yunwu Mountain, and only told them that she had a master, but she had already gone immortal.

After finishing speaking, she silently apologized to her master and everyone in her heart.

Luo's eyes looked at her, a little more pity, "I only have two sons, and I don't have a daughter." From now on, you will make this your home, and we will be your family. ”

The corners of Liyan's eyes twitched, even if it was for Dongfang Yu's sake, there was no need to be in such a hurry. They had just met, and all ten fingers of what they said could be found. Moreover, she has big things to do, and she doesn't want to bother them.

Judging by the way she looked, even if she told them she was going to kill someone, they wouldn't let her go. Perhaps, she said so, there was a real chance that they would imprison her here. So, don't tell them.

Liyan settled down and said softly, "Thank you, madam." ”

Dongfang Yuxiao's teeth on the other side of Liyan were exposed, and Liyan also wanted to smile, but she tried many times and didn't succeed, so she gave up.

"I'll find someone to take you down and freshen up."

"Thank you, ma'am."

Luo Shi waved his hand and said, "Don't call me Mrs. anymore, just call me Aunt Yao." ”

Liyan didn't have the habit of casually recognizing relatives, she just looked at it and smiled, and didn't change her words.

Seeing this, Luo didn't say anything to Liyan.

"Ruby, take the girl down."

The green-clothed maid beside her blessed her body, and Lianbu moved lightly to Liyan's face, and made a gesture of invitation to her.

Liyan got up and left with her.

As soon as he left, Luo's called Dongfang Yu in front of him, "Yu'er, do you really feel better?" Is it really because of her? ”

"Mother, it's true. If you don't believe me, why don't you let Dr. Kim take a look, I really feel better. ”

"Then how she appeared, you and I can tell you in detail."

"Cuicui found her in the river while she was playing by the river." Dongfang Yu said excitedly: "However, although she was floating in the river, her clothes were not wet by the water at all. Later, Cuicui tried to pull her ashore, only to get her clothes wet. ”

Luo Shi twisted his eyebrows, this person's origin is unknown, his identity is a mystery, and what she said is not very credible, after listening to Dongfang Yu's words, she felt that she was even more strange. However, she can make Yu'er no longer uncomfortable.

"Mother, let's keep her, okay?"

Luo looked at Dongfang Yu lovingly, "Okay, let's keep her." ”

Hongyu brought a goose-yellow gauze dress to Liyan, who smiled and rejected her. She's grown so big that she's never worn a gauze skirt.

Fortunately, Hongyu didn't force her to wear that dress, Liyan washed her face, and she took her out again.

It wasn't the same way they came, and Liyan knew that they weren't going back to Luo's yard.

Sure enough, she was taken to a courtyard called Song'an.

"Girl, wait a moment."

Liyan stood in front of the door, feeling the curious eyes of the sweeping maid. Suddenly felt very aggrieved, Dongfang Yu's family has a big business, and he cares about his brother, mother, grandmother, and friends like Luo Minghe, although he is not in good health, his family is willing to spend a lot of money for him to hire the best doctor. Other than that, he didn't have to worry about other things at all.

Like her, she has to find a way to get rid of Chaoyue, who threatens her senior brother's life, and she has to be careful not to let Uh, Chaoyue find out her identity. The way of this world is indeed not fair. There is a huge gap between people. Thinking of this, her heart throbbed again.

Originally, she also had a healthy body, but now she was going to lose the only thing better than him. What a terrible word.

"Girl, please come in."

It wasn't Hongyu who came out, it was another maid dressed in yellow.

Liyan felt very troubled, they used so many maids, it must be very troublesome to remember the appearance and name of each maid.

After entering the house with her, Liyan met Dongfang Yu's grandmother, the old lady of Dongfang. Judging from her age, she should be about the same age as her master, with gray hair and good spirit, but she definitely doesn't have the spirit of her master. The wrinkles at the corners of the eyes are clearly visible, each telling the passage of time.

Beside her, there were two girls with fallen horse buns, and judging by their dress, they should be the young ladies of the house. This kind of big family is a big family living together, and it may be Dongfang Yu's cousin.

The old man didn't let her sit down, so she had to stand.

"Your name is Liyan."

"Yes." Liyan said softly.

The old man looked at her carefully with shrewd eyes. Then, he waved her away.

Liyan wanted to scold people and let her come over, just to ask what she already knew, why is this, is it because she has nothing to do?

Then, she was brought back to Luo by Ruby.

Only Rock's and rice are in. In this way, she didn't have to see Dongfang Yu's father before the meal, and she was relieved.

"Dr. Jin is checking Yu'er's pulse, and he will have dinner later."

She was stunned, she wanted to ask this question.

"Let's eat first."

Li Yan watched Luo's move the chopsticks, and then she picked up the bowl and looked at the small bowl of rice in her hand and the dishes on the table. Liyan suddenly missed the pancakes, although she didn't think it was very delicious, but at least the thing was full.

When Liyan ate the third bowl of rice, Luo's brows couldn't help jumping.

"It's good to eat from the girl."

She didn't know how to take what she said. She usually eats a lot more than that. simply didn't speak, just buried his head in hard work.

After eating, Dr. Jin also finished checking Dongfang Yu's pulse.

Liyan also got his wish and met Dongfang Yu's father, Dongfang Zhen, the head of the majestic Dongfang family.

Dr. Jin, who was for Dongfang and the doctor, was also there, and the old doctor with white hair and kind eyebrows was kind.

Before he sat down, he trotted to her side, "Little girl, stretch out your hand, I'll show you." ”

Li Yan hesitated for a moment, and slowly stretched out his right hand, and the person had to bow his head under the eaves.

After taking the pulse of Liyan, Dr. Kim's hand brushing his beard stopped.

"Well, your vein seems to be really strange." His expression became serious, and he changed several postures in a row, and his face became more and more solemn.

"You're so badly wounded, and you're still alive. Unbelievable, unbelievable. ”

He looked up at Liyan and shook his head slightly, "I'm ashamed, I'm ashamed, the old man has been practicing medicine for many years, and I've never seen a heart pulse damaged and his eyes can move as freely as you." Old man, I can't help you. However, the old man can refine some pills for you, which will make you feel better. ”

Liyan didn't expect a solution from him, so he wasn't disappointed, but why did everyone like to give her the pill, as if she was about to die. Despite this, Liyan still thanked him seriously.

Dr. Kim shook his head and sighed as he left the living room.

Now, only Liyan and Dongfang Zhen are left here, as well as the master hidden in the shadows.

"The heart pulse is damaged. How you were hurt. ”

"I don't know. More than half a month ago, I woke up like this. "What she said wasn't a lie, and she really didn't know much about the memory of her injuries.

Dongfang Zhen didn't dwell too much on this question, and instead asked, "What are you going to do in the capital?" ”

Liyan's heart moved slightly, Dongfang Yu seemed to have told him about it, but did he tell him that she was going to the capital to kill people, which was really not visible from Dongfang Zhen's expression.

Liyan decided to take a risk, even if she tore her face, it was a big deal that she would find another chance to escape.

"Find someone."

"Who's looking for?"

"Parents. When my teacher died, he told me that my parents were in the capital, and asked me to look for them. ”

"Do you have a certificate?"

Liyan frowned, what does this mean, is it to help her? However, his master did not give her anything to prove her identity. Her eyes are the best proof of that, just not now.

“…… No. ”

Dongfang Zhen raised his eyebrows, "No evidence and no certificate, how do you find it?" ”

"I don't know. However, not every family in the capital has lost their children, and they can always be found. Said sincerely.

Dongfang Zhen stared at Liyan, and Liyan calmly faced his scrutiny, anyway, what she said was not wrong. At the beginning, her purpose in entering Beijing was indeed to find her parents.

"I know a few friends in the capital, and I'll ask them to help keep an eye on it."

"Thank you."

"Doctor Jin refining medicine, it still takes time, you can stay here for a few days."

I see, I want to keep her. If they knew, it was actually because of the Ice Spirit Bead that Dongfang Yu would feel comfortable, would they kill people to take the pearl? It's better not to be tempted, she can accept that she died in Chaoyue's hands, but it would be too unjust to die in such a place. However, then again, what is Dongfang Yu's illness?

"Thank you very much."

Dongfang Zhen nodded to her, and asked people to take her down.

After leaving, the person who was hidden in the shadows appeared in front of Dongfang Zhen. It was a bald old man, and he sat down in the place where Liyan had sat before.

"Uncle Xu, is she the person we are looking for?" Dongfang said in a deep voice.

The old man opened his mouth, as if preparing a word, "It's hard to say, someone has placed a seal on this little girl. And, as the old golden head said, people like her who have been so badly injured have either been buried in the ground or are lying in bed unable to move. The person behind this little girl is very powerful. Regardless of whether she is the person we are looking for or not, don't offend anyone, and send someone to take good care of her. ”

"Yes."

Liyan was taken to the guest room, and in addition to Hongyu, an older woman was also there.

"The little woman's surname is Chen, and she works beside Madame. Everyone called me Mama Chen, and Mrs. specially asked me to serve the girl. The woman introduced herself to Liyan.

"Thank you, madam, and thank you Mama Chen."

Mama Chen introduced herself, and asked Liyan what she likes to eat, whether she has taboos, and what incense she likes.

Listening to what she said to eat, Liyan suddenly missed the white porridge on the mountain, as well as her sixth senior sister, "I want to drink white porridge, don't smoke incense." ”

“…… Yes, the old slave will go and get it. ”

Liyan sighed in his heart, there are really a lot of rules in this big family.

"The second son took the medicine and rested, he asked the slave to tell you that he will come to see you tomorrow, so that you "paused, Hongyu said: "Don't be afraid. She didn't see where this girl seemed to be scared, but Childe Jean said that she couldn't help but say it.

Liyan nodded and said, "Well, I see." ”

Then, the two looked at each other without saying a word.

Li Yan couldn't help but ask, "Isn't the red jade girl going to rest?" ”

"When the maid rests, the slave and maid go to rest." Ruby said softly.

Liyan wanted to say that there was water in the room, and she also knew where the clean room was, and she could do it herself. However, thinking of the complicated rules of the big family, she still didn't let her go, only let her go and get her a book, and let her do her own thing.

Hongyu handed the book to Liyan and left the house, thinking that she really listened to her own words and went to do something else, so she wanted to release Yuancheng.

As a result, she took out the wooden box, and Hongyu came back with a needle and thread.

In front of the words, she started embroidering.

Liyan didn't know what to say, she asked her to do her own thing, and she really couldn't blame her.

Seeing that Liyan had been looking at herself, Hongyu asked tentatively, "What does the girl think of the embroidery?" ”

Liyan has never learned embroidery, but she has seen a lot of finished products, and the red jade embroidery is quite good. So, she gave a pertinent evaluation, "Not bad." ”

"Do you want to embroider one?"

Liyan suddenly remembered the days when she and the fourth senior brother were playing with embroidery needles, and they were pricked by the needle, which hurt a lot. So, she decisively refused.

Next, the two of them read separately, and Hongyu did embroidery, and everyone did not interfere with each other.

Until Mama Chen came in with a little maid and a food box.

When I saw the food box, I thought that this bowl of white porridge can't be too simple. Sure enough, in addition to the rice, there are also a lot of lotus seeds, corn, and black rice. In addition to the white porridge, there is also a stack of lily cakes in the food box.

Mama Chen was on the side, looking at her eagerly.

Liyan had to taste the white porridge, not in vain added so many things, the rice grains were boiled very badly, melted in the mouth, and her lips and teeth were fragrant, but she just wanted to eat a bowl of white porridge on the mountain.

"It's delicious."

Mama Chen smiled and wrote it down.

A bowl of white porridge went down, and Liyan felt that his whole body was comfortable.

So, she decided to rest.

After repeatedly declining Ruby's request to take a bath, she finally took a comfortable bath.

The clothes that Luo's sent people to prepare for her were only gauze skirts, and Liyan still wore her own clothes.

After Liyan finished taking a shower, Hongyu came in and prepared to wipe her hair.

She took the cloth towel and looked at Liyan's hair, which had dried through, a little overwhelmed.

"I'm fine, you go and rest."

After Hongyu left, the room was finally left alone.

After she cast a spell and laid down the barrier, she released Yuan Cheng.

Yuan Cheng was locked in a box by her, and he didn't know anything about what was happening in the outside world, and he was a little overjoyed to see that Liyan was still alive.

"It's great that you're alive." Yuan Cheng touched a handful of non-existent tears, "You are still alive, why didn't you tell me earlier, I have been worried about you for a long time." ”

"Shut up." Liyan whispered.

Yuan Cheng covered his mouth and looked at Liyan like a frightened little beast.

"Look at my face."

Yuan Cheng stared at Liyan's face for a long time, scratched his head, and said, "This ...... With my ability, I would never have been able to do this. Thinking of that possibility, Yuan Cheng was so excited that he jumped up.

"Is that the person showing up? Was he the one who saved you? ”

“…… No. ”

Yuan Cheng's excitement was extinguished by a basin of cold water from Liyan.

"So, how did you escape. Didn't you go and kill him? ”

Liyan glanced at him, "I went, I missed." ”

Yuan Cheng was a little surprised, he was still alive if he missed, so thinking about it, the person named Chaoyue should not be a bad person. He can even let go of the person who wants to kill him, he should be a good person.

Looking at the expression on his face, Liyan had already guessed his thoughts. Liyan didn't want to say anything anymore, and when the man took away his memories, he probably took away his concepts of good and evil as well.

"We are now in the house of a person named Dongfang Yu, they have a lot of family, and some of them know how to spell. Finding you is just a matter of time. Liyan warned him: "If you are caught by their family, you tell them that you want to find your family, so you will stay with me." ”

Yuan Cheng nodded and said, "I remember, don't worry, I won't cause trouble for you." ”

Liyan thought about it carefully, and there was no other problem, so he let him go back.

Subsequently, she removed the barrier as well.

Listening to the sound of the tiles on the roof, she was slandered, and she didn't look for someone to spy on her, which had a great impact on her.

Then, Liyan remembered the sign that Chaoyue gave her. In the dark, she rubbed her hand for a long time.

She knew that she was doing murder and selling intelligence, and it was said that it was very expensive, and Chaoyue actually said that with this token, she could ask them for help. Chaoyue is a national teacher, why is there a connection with them. Or is it that they were cultivated by Chaoyue and used to eradicate dissidents. Does Emperor Cheng know about this, maybe she can use this as the cornerstone of bringing down Chaoyue.

is asleep, and Liyan is still frowning.

*

Beijing, Taiping Town.

After Taiping Town, walk for about half a day, and you will arrive at the capital.

In the SF Inn, Cheng An kept walking around the room with his hands behind his back.

Ji Ran looked at the paper in his hand again and again, and finally, he couldn't help but make a noise to stop.

"Third Senior Brother, if you go for a year or ten years, Ah Yan will not appear out of thin air. It's better to sit down and think with me about where Ah Yan will go. ”

Cheng An let out a long sigh, and sure enough, he sat next to Ji Ran, "How do I know this." ”

"Since we can't find Ah Yan, let's find her family first. After all, we're about to get to the capital. Ji Ran said.

"Ah Yan can't find it, is it easy for her family to find it?" Cheng An's voice was full of exhaustion.

Ji Ran knew that it was not easy to find, but they couldn't always do nothing. Waiting for Ah Yan to come to them, since Ah Yan chose to leave, he would definitely not let them find it.

"Why did Ah Yan leave?" Ji Ran muttered.

Cheng An also fell into deep thought, yes, there is something that everyone can't deal with together, she must deal with it alone.

A few people, you look at me, I look at you, and I can't think of a reason, so I want to go to Beijing early tomorrow morning, hoping to get good news there.

However, when they woke up the next day, they received a message from He Qing. Let them quickly go to Yangxin County, next door to Taiping Town.

Looking at the familiar handwriting on the paper, as well as the unique auspicious cloud logo of the Cloud Sect, this will definitely not be imitated by outsiders. He Qing didn't write down the reason why they went there.

"Mo Fei, Ah Yan has found it."

With this guess, they took breakfast and set out on their way.

They went to Yangxin County with great expectations, but they did not get the desired results.

It turned out that there was a recent case of a girl losing her soul in Yangxin County. He Qing felt that this matter might be the same as what they had encountered in the Cold Water Pavilion, but it was done by the same group of people, so he asked them to come and check it out.

When Cheng An and the others arrived in Yangxin County, they learned that the girl's soul had been recovered by the apprentice of the national teacher. As expected, they didn't catch anyone either.

Ji Ran went to the best tavern in the county to inquire, and sure enough, someone came to them with a wine gourd to buy pear blossom white, as for whether there was a mark on his gourd, he didn't remember it. And here, no one has ever seen the woman in red.

"It should be him." Ji Ran said.

Because this was the task given to them by He Qing, several people temporarily gave up looking for Liyan and patiently investigated.
