"Do you know my nephew Xiao Keming?"

After the middle-aged man Xiao Yingwen closed the door, he suddenly opened his mouth to ask me, I nodded, and then said: "I recognize, I met when I was in my hometown, and the reason why I was able to worship Lu Zuo's door was also because of his strong recommendation." ”

He nodded and said That's good, Xiao Ming sent me a message last night and asked me to come to you.

Yes?

I was stunned and said he wasn't......

Halfway through my words, I deliberately paused, Xiao Yingwen knew what I was worried about, and said to me: "He is indeed in the secluded mansion now, but before leaving, he came to me and made an agreement, so that he can dream of me." ”

I was silent for a moment, then said, "Why you?" ”

Xiao Yingwen said: "After the Lu Zuo case, both officialdom and public opinion in the rivers and lakes were one-sided, and Xiao Ming felt that many people were no longer credible; As for me, it's because I've been quitting the rivers and lakes all these years, teaching at home, away from the circle of right and wrong, and no one will notice me, so I can rest assured. ”

I said Xiao Keming asked you to find me, so what's the matter?

Xiao Yingwen replied, saying that he hopes you can go to Youfu and pick him up.

Yes?

I was stunned again, a little embarrassed, and said why is this?

To tell the truth, I was really shocked, what is Youfu, that's where people go after they die, Xiao Keming asked me to go to Youfu, didn't I hang up now?

Okay, even if I die, what power do I have to take him out?

Xiao Yingwen seemed to anticipate my surprise, and said in a low voice: "It's not for you to die, but for you to go to the secluded mansion in the flesh and take it out." ”

I said I don't understand why the hell is this, why is it me?

The words were very confusing, but he understood what I meant, and said to me, "Because the exit into Youfu is near Mount Tai, where there is a great god guarded, and no one is allowed to enter, but Xiao Ming said you can—I don't know why, because I'm just a messenger." ”

I stared at the middle-aged man in front of me and fell silent.

I don't know if he can be trusted, after all, I have only just met him, and it is absolutely impossible for me to go to Huangquan with his words for such an important matter.

After a long silence, I said, "I want to call the fifth brother, is that okay?" ”

The middle-aged man nodded and said no problem.

In front of him, I took out my mobile phone and dialed it to the fifth brother, and the phone was quickly connected, and before I could speak, the fifth brother's voice came: "Lu Yan, you should have seen my third brother, right?" ”

I said yes, he was in front of me.

The fifth brother said: "Lu Yan, my third brother and Lu Zuo are lifelong friendships, and they will definitely not harm you; And in the entire Xiao family, my eldest brother is in politics, my second brother is in agriculture, I have been wandering all my life, and my younger sister lives in Maoshan, and he is in charge of our generation. ”

Yes?

The middle-aged man in front of me is actually the head of the Jurong Xiao family?

The fifth brother expressed his attitude in a few words, I didn't ask any more, and after saying goodbye to him, I nodded and said: "Third uncle, I know, you give me the specific address, once I can get out here, I will rush over immediately." ”

Xiao Yingwen took out two things from his arms, a red talisman bag, and a Pixiu jade pendant.

He handed it to me, pointed to the red talisman bag and said: "This is the concealment talisman left by the Fu King Li Daozi, wearing it can hide your breath and identity, even in the secluded mansion, no one can know your identity; This has an important life-saving effect on your trip to the secluded mansion, and you must carry it close to you, not take it away. ”

I nodded, and saw a red lanyard on top of the talisman bag, which I wore around my neck.

I wanted to open the talisman bag, but he said, "The talisman bag can hide aura, so it's best not to open it; In addition, you are now on the cusp of the storm, and there will inevitably be some people following you, and you can use this talisman bag to get rid of other people's qi to explore. I've got a spell here, listen. ”

Xiao Yingwen passed me a mantra, and after I recited it silently twice, I opened my mouth to read it, and sure enough, there was a strange field that enveloped me.

And at this moment, there was a knock on the door, and the voice of the insect came: "Lu Yan, what's wrong with you?" ”

I knew that this was a sign of anxiety after the insect couldn't sense my breath, and I couldn't help but feel warm in my heart, and said to her, "It's okay, don't worry." ”

The insect left, and Xiao Yingwen pointed to the rough and simple Pixiu jade pendant and said: "This thing is a round spirit talisman, which can withstand the bombardment of three natural forces, such as lightning strikes or mountain collapses, and can form a short-term Qi field shield around your body - it is one of the ten treasures of Maoshan Mountain, the thing in charge, Xiao Ming specially left it to me before leaving." ”

Withstand three bombardments?

Isn't this the energy cover you often see in science fiction movies?

That's three lives!

I took it carefully, and said with some trepidation: "It's not good for me to give me such a valuable thing, right?" ”

Xiao Yingwen said that this is all Xiao Ming's explanation, you just take it; Besides, this is going to Youfu, the road is bumpy, I don't know how many tribulations there will be, there are few people in the world who can come back from the dead, you can pick him up, in my heart, there is only gratitude.

I finally couldn't help but ask at this time, saying that Xiao Keming left from the backyard of Maoshan when he went to Youfu, and it stands to reason that there is a passage there, so why let me go on this trip?

Xiao Yingwen's eyelids jumped, and he was silent for a while before he whispered: "Someone has imprisoned the passage!" ”

Imprisoned?

I subconsciously took a breath and said in disbelief: "Who would be so vicious, isn't this to let him die?" ”

Xiao Yingwen shook his head and smiled bitterly, saying that the current Maoshan is no longer the Maoshan of the past, Xiao Ming's position as the head of the sect was taken away, and all the ghosts and ghosts that sank under the water have come out - not to mention this, when will you leave?

I thought about it for a while, and said that I am now involved in the Zhongshan Mausoleum bloody case, and at present, I am the only eyewitness with the worm, and I need to wait for the person from the General Bureau to ask before I can leave.

Xiao Yingwen nodded, and said that he was not in a hurry, you can leave in the near future - this matter is top secret, it is best not to let others know, do you know?

I nodded, remembered something, and said, "Can I bring someone with me?" ”

Xiao Yingwen pointed to the living room outside and said Are you going to take your girlfriend?

Belch......

Third uncle, you are too good at chatting, yes, the worm is my girlfriend, although it is only a female friend now, but I will try to turn her into a real girlfriend as soon as possible!

I nodded, yes.

Xiao Yingwen said that she can be trusted?

I say absolutely credible.

Xiao Yingwen was silent for a while, and then said: "Xiao Ming only mentioned you, and he didn't say that he wouldn't let people be brought, so I naturally have no opinion; But there are two questions, the first is whether the people are willing to go with you, and the other is whether the one who guards the passage is willing to let you take someone there. ”

I said, who is the man guarding the passage?

He shook his head and said I don't know.

I said, then how can I communicate with her, and how can I get there?

Xiao Yingwen still shook his head, saying I am only responsible for passing the word, as for why, I really don't know, if you want to know, you can only go there in person, and everything will have a result.

I said okay, got it.

The secret conversation between the two ended, and at this moment, he suddenly said: "Since you are going to take someone away, then I also have an additional request here." ”

I said, please.

He pointed to the door and said, "I have an apprentice named Jiang Bao, who has been practicing with me all these years; He is a very perceptive child, I can teach him, I have taught everything, he only owes experience and cultivation now, so if you agree, I want him to follow you to the secluded mansion. ”

I was stunned for a moment, and said that you are sure, it is a secluded mansion, and it is very dangerous.

He nodded, and said that a man was born in the world, and if he was afraid of danger, how could he achieve a career?

I said how is his cultivation?

He looked at me and said calmly, "No worse than you." ”

Uh, third uncle, what you said is too hurtful, isn't it?

I thought about it and agreed.

After Xiao Yingwen finished speaking, he walked out of the room with me.

The relationship between him and Director Dai's sister-in-law should not be good, so he didn't stay any longer, and after briefly explaining to Jiang Bao, he said goodbye and left.

Director Dai was busy all night and very tired, and after sending Xiao Yingwen away, he greeted us and went back to his room to sleep.

Xiao Luqi took us out for breakfast, and on the way, I communicated with Xiao Yingwen's apprentice.

As a result, as soon as I chatted, I found out that this child was a stuffy person.

What is a stuffy person?

This is my hometown dialect, which is about a person who is obviously not dumb, but he doesn't like to talk, and he will never say anything except when necessary.

Less than words.

I communicated for a long time, and finally had to give up.

At breakfast, Xiao Luqi and I went to order food and whispered something to me, saying that this child used to have some autism and his brain was not very good.

Yes?

In this way, why would Xiao Yingwen leave such a young man by my side?

We stayed at Xiao Luqi's house for another two days, and the little demon never came back, I was very worried, but the worm didn't seem nervous, and when I was alone with the two of us, I relayed the words that Xiao Yingwen brought with me to her.

After listening, the worm asked me what I meant, and I told her that I would like to go with her if possible.

Worm easily agreed, saying that if the little demon had no opinion.

She told me that going to the Youfu is actually not that complicated, and before the worm pond disappeared, Chi Limei often went to the Youfu through the worm pond to practice.

I was speechless.

On the third day, when the time came to me, Director Dai found me and said that someone wanted to see me.

When I saw that she was solemn, I asked who it was.

Director Dai said three words with a heavy face: "Chen Zhicheng!" ”
