Chapter 827: Something to prolong life

"A hundred years ago, the Fengming Empire was the strongest empire that no country can match now, but it is a pity that the Fengming Empire worships metaphysics and believes in religion, and the religions in the Fengming Empire at that time can be said to be full of flowers, and in the end, because of the civil war between these religions, they fell apart. Legend has it that in the early days of the founding of the People's Republic of China, the Feng clan of the Fengming Empire and the national teacher surnamed Si, who had made great contributions in the unification war, jointly built a treasure trove, which was full of rare things.

"After the collapse of the Fengming Empire due to religious division, the ancestors of the Shen family waited for the opportunity to seize the main power, and other nobles also divided the land and established themselves as kings. In the end, the Si family finally couldn't hold on anymore and was forced to hand over Prince Feng, and after that, the Feng Ming Kingdom passed on the legend of the Fengming Empire's treasure house, and according to the legend, the key to the treasure house was in the Longxi Kingdom. ”

Shen Run had never heard of this, because he had never heard of it, and it felt like Yan Ying was telling a story. He remembered that he had been vaguely feeling that Chenguang was looking for something all these years, and that Chenguang suddenly went to Long Xiguo at that time, although she said that it was because she wanted to prevent Long Xiguo from attacking Fengming Kingdom in the future, so she wanted to strike first, but in combination with the environment at the time, this reason was a bit abrupt anyway, and it seemed more reasonable to integrate Yan Ying's explanation into the environment at that time.

"How do you know about such a thing?" Shen Run asked lightly, his feelings are not good, and outsiders can't see what he is thinking at this time.

"It's not that I grew up with her, and I naturally know what she knows."

"You're saying that she's looking for the treasure trove of the Fengming Empire, and it's not because of the wealth in the treasury, but because there's something in the treasury that can protect her life?" Shen Run's mind was confused, he thought for a moment, and asked in conclusion.

Yan Ying nodded: "That's what she said, there may be something in there that can prolong her life, after all, it was built by her ancestors." ”

Shen Run frowned: "Is there really something in there that can prolong life?" ”

"Probably, she has been looking for it for so many years, and she must be eighty percent sure. She's the eldest princess of the Si family, and she knows these things better than me, although I can't imagine what it is that can prolong life. Yan Ying laughed amusedly, poured a glass of wine, and took a sip.

Shen Run fell silent, as if thinking about something.

Yan Ying glanced at him, curled the corners of her lips, and whispered, "Is there really such a thing?" After a pause, he smiled lightly and said, "Actually, she is the one who is the most inconsistent, saying that she has already seen through life and death and doesn't care at all, but in fact she is secretly desperately looking for a means to prolong her life, she is really a woman who loves to deceive." ”

Shen Run's heart seemed to be twisted by an invisible hand, which was very sour. When she didn't care, as if she was saying that it didn't matter if she died immediately in such pain, in fact, she wanted to live, she wanted to live......

Shen Run took a deep breath before exhaling the dullness that was stuck in his chest, he glanced at Yan Ying, and asked in a deep voice:

"You're looking for something like her, right?"

Yan Ying's face did not change, and she didn't answer him, just glanced at him lightly, drank all the wine in the cup, and then picked up the wine pot and left with a smile.

Shen Run didn't catch up and asked again.

Shen Run didn't fully believe Yan Ying's words, but he didn't disbelieve it either, if there was really something that could help Chenguang relieve her pain and prolong her life, it would be great if she could restore her health. Although he couldn't imagine what could heal her so magically, he was still excited to have this hope.

At the breakfast table, he secretly looked at her several times, and he wanted to ask her, but he couldn't.

First of all, Yan Ying may not be telling the truth, maybe it is a trap, and if she asks rashly, she may be ridiculed by Chenguang; Secondly, Chenguang had never told him about the Fengming Empire's treasury, and if she didn't want him to know that he asked, it would definitely cause her unhappiness, and it would indeed be very unpleasant for people to ask about things that she didn't want to be known.

He thought that since Yan Ying said that Long Xiguo was also involved in this legend, he should investigate it internally before making a plan.

"Why do you keep peeking at me?" Chenguang asked suspiciously, holding the rice bowl.

Shen Run was startled by her sudden opening, and hurriedly replied, "It's nothing." ”

"I don't believe it!" Chenguang, a sensitive girl, clearly sensed that he was hiding something from her, put the porridge bowl on the table, stared at him with big eyes, and asked, "What do you want to say?" ”

Sometimes she's so sharp that people feel terrible.

"It's nothing." Shen Run said in a perfunctory tone, paused, and saw that she was still staring at him persistently, so he had to say, "I'm wondering, have you lost weight again recently, you should eat more." ”

Chenguang was stunned for a moment, looked down at his slender waist, and pinched it with both hands: "It's not thin, it's still the same as before." ”

"It's just that you're thin, eat faster, eat more." Shen Run said, picked up the porridge bowl she still had half a bowl left, filled it up for her, and specially added a few more pieces of fish, "You can't be picky anymore, eating more is good for your health." ”

Chenguang saw him add fish and meat into her bowl piece by piece, and his face was almost green.

……

After breakfast, Chang Xi came over to see Chenguang, and Shen Run didn't say anything when he saw Chenguang, so he didn't avoid it. Chang Xi glanced at Shen Run, didn't say anything, and reported the results of last night's interrogation to Chenguang one by one.

"That is, nothing has been tried?" Chenguang held his cheeks, squinted his eyes, and asked lazily.

"The people who followed Zi Yan to the island were all Zi Yan's subordinates, and they were never allowed to contact each other. And Zi Yan, her superior is Lord Ye, and she only knows that the person is called 'Lord Ye', and she doesn't know anything about the origin or name. Zi Yan was bought by this Lord Ye from Ren Yazi, Zi Yan said that the 'master' in her mouth was Lord Ye's superior, and she didn't dare to guarantee whether this 'master' was the owner of the Witch Doctor Hall. She had never seen the 'master' in any case, for he wore a mask and never spoke, except that he was a man, and that he was very young. ”

Even if Zi Yan doesn't say Chenguang, she knows that Zi Yan has a spring heart on her face when she mentions "master", and she will definitely not be full of spring heart for a woman or an old man.

"This time, Princess Leyang and the county lord of Qingping were not tied by Ziyan, they were given to her to guard after Lord Ye was tied up, and the letter from the Yingwu Palace, in other words, she didn't know anything except the identities of Princess Leyang, her task was just to guard."
