Chapter 10: Uninvited Guests

The second uncle sat in the dim front hall and was silent for a while, and said softly: "Xiaorui, when you recuperate for half a month, we will go out." ”

"Where?" I sat down across from my second uncle and asked.

"Taibai Mountain." The second uncle said.

"Taibai Mountain?" I shook my head: "I haven't heard of it, where is it?" ”

"Qinling." The second uncle's face was a little uncertain, which made me look a little weak.

"What are you doing there?" I paused, but still asked.

"Ten Secret Realms, how many places have we been?" The second uncle asked rhetorically.

I fiddled with my fingers and calculated: "Taiji Halo, Jinsu Mountain, Tianshan Medicine Garden, Nanpan Shrine, everywhere." ”

"Well, according to Gu Yusheng's statement during this trip to Nanpan Divine Palace, as well as the statement of Xiu'er's predecessors today, among the ten secret realms, there are actually one or even several places that no longer exist." The second uncle said: "When Senior Xiu'er was upstairs with you, I took out the iron box and showed it to Senior Qingyue - Oh yes, I have one thing to tell you, Senior Qingyue opened the iron box and studied it together when he stayed in Qingyue Temple with Senior Xiu'er, so Senior Qingyue also knew a lot about the Ten Secret Realms. According to the clues given to me by Qingyue's predecessors, among the ten secret realms now, except for the four places we have visited, two have definitely disappeared or been destroyed. ”

"Where?" I asked.

"One is what Xiu'er's predecessors said, a submerged dragon vein not far from Miao Village in the southwest." The second uncle frowned: "The other place is the legendary Huashan Cloud Sea Floating City. ”

"I haven't heard of it...... I smiled bitterly, but suddenly remembered something: "By the way, second uncle, that Gu Yusheng, said that he once visited the Ten Secret Realms hundreds of years ago, and he should know these things!" ”

"He should know more than Xiu'er's predecessors and Qingyue's predecessors!" The second uncle smiled slyly: "So, this is also what I am worried about." ”

"What are you worried about?" I'm a little confused.

"Senior Qingyue helped me get down the pulse again and provided me with a place, which is Taibai Mountain." The second uncle sighed lightly: "What I'm worried about is that Gu Yusheng, who is the patriarch of the Nanpan faction, also provided this clue to the seventh master. Although he said in front of us that the Seventh Master's poison was incurable, but in private, he might tell the Seventh Master some solutions. ”

"Then, what is in this Taibai Mountain?" I asked, "Is there anything else that can detoxify or cure the genetic defects of our Gu family?" ”

"It can only be said that there is hope." The second uncle spread his hands: "Qingyue seniors said that in Taibai Mountain, there is a hidden underground palace, which is where an ancient tribe lived thousands of years ago, this tribe lived in the deep mountains, and the living environment was extremely harsh, but they found a rare herb, Qingyue senior said that he forgot what his original name was, he called' Guyuan Grass', is a kind of herbal medicine with similar properties to the medicine used in Gu Yusheng's body, which may not be able to detoxify, or improve the genetics of our Gu family, but it can make our body slow down aging, but it can resist the genes or toxins in the body, Qingyue's predecessors even suspected that the Nanpan tribe, which was the same age as that tribe, went north in a big way at that time, wiped out many tribes, and became the fuse that was later annihilated by Chiyou, and the reason was to get that kind of 'Guyuan Cao'. ”

"But who can say that this herb is still there?!" I raised the biggest doubts.

"Just because of this, you are in the Ten Secret Realms." The second uncle took a deep breath: "Actually, no one dares to judge, but this is the only way, you can only try to find it, unless you ......"

The second uncle glanced at me when he said this, and didn't say any more.

"Unless what?" I asked.

"Unless, find your father's prescription." The second uncle said lightly.

I suddenly felt that there was some playful tone in the second uncle's words, which made me feel that at this time, our uncle and nephew had begun to doubt each other!

My suspicion of the second uncle stems from those who have been following us from the beginning and can find our whereabouts at any time, from Chai Lao Wu and them, Xu Zeming and them, and even to the Oriental people, the time point when they appear each time coincides with the time when the second uncle participates in the action or knows our whereabouts. The most serious thing is that Hanjia and the iron box, these two things, were almost fished into his arms by the second uncle without his contribution......

The second uncle's suspicion of me should be after learning that my father left a prescription. He slowly began to think that I might have obtained the prescription, or had some agreement with the seventh master in private, although he was silent on the surface, but judging from the attitude of the second uncle towards me in several actions, I even felt that there were several times when the second uncle left quietly, wanting to put me in danger, and even worse, wanting to harm me personally......

I'm not sure the reason for these conjectures is that I don't know what the purpose of the second uncle is in doing this. Perhaps, as we search for prescriptions and spiritual herbs deepen, the second uncle's inner world will be slowly revealed.

My second uncle and I fell into an embarrassing and suffocating horror. I grew up so big and never thought that one day, there would be such a scene between me and my second uncle!

"Sleep!" The second uncle stood up and walked upstairs: "After you recuperate for half a month, we will quietly go to Taibai Mountain, don't mention it to anyone." ”

Well, it's as if those people were following us because of my leaks!

I answered and went upstairs to sleep.

For the next week or so, I basically spent two points and one line in the antique shop and Xiaoxiao's house, but Xiaoxiao was still lukewarm to me, and I couldn't guess what this girl who had been with me for seven years was thinking.

Seeing that the time has come to the end of October, entering the late autumn season, the Northeast even floated a few snowflakes on a certain night.

On the first day of November, I went to the hospital for a follow-up check-up, and my injuries recovered well and I was able to take off my protective gear. I returned to the antique shop easily, and as soon as I entered the door, I was stunned: He Yunchang was sitting on the sofa in the front hall, and the second uncle was sitting opposite, and there were several black-clothed people standing behind the two, which should be Xu Zeming's subordinates.

I frowned, I didn't know why Xu Zeming suddenly sent someone over......

"Sit down." When He Yunchang saw me coming back, he waved his hand to the two black-clothed men standing at the door, motioned for me to let me in, and pointed to the opposite side.

I glanced at the second uncle, and saw that the second uncle did not have an anxious look on his face, so I walked over and sat beside him.

"How's the review?" The second uncle's tone was also the same.

"Good, the protective gear has been removed." I whispered.

"Well, that's good." The second uncle smiled and stopped talking.

There were seven or eight people in the entire front hall, and none of them spoke, and I didn't know what was going on, so I paused, and looked at He Yunchang with a wry smile: "Senior, how did you come out of Nanpan Divine Palace?" ”

"Just like you." He Yunchang's face, which had always been iron, had no expression, and it looked like a dead man.

This reminds me of Xiu'er's predecessors's words, this He Yunchang is really poisoned, and the bones of his body have undergone abnormal changes, which are not the same as normal people. It's no wonder that Xiao Lingzhi's predecessors don't look down on him, if I were a woman, I would rather not marry than marry such a man who looks like a hell ghost!

"Oh......" I nodded and looked at the second uncle, who shook his head at me, indicating that he didn't know what He Yunchang meant.

It seems that He Yunchang hasn't spoken much since he called, but he just put the second uncle and me under house arrest here.

After being silent for a few minutes, He Yunchang picked up a phone, and after listening to the people over there, he just hung up the phone with a "hmm", then leaned on the back of the sofa, looked at me and the second uncle, and asked in a deep voice: "Where are the seventh master and the cloth bag monk?" ”

"Kunming." The second uncle said: "After coming out of the Nanpan Shrine, the two of them stayed in Kunming because of their serious injuries. But I haven't been in touch since that day and I don't know where I am. ”

"Well, I also know that in Kunming." He Yunchang's long face looked like a robot: "But we went to the hospital to check, they left a week ago, and now there is no news." ”

"Then we can't help it." The second uncle smiled bitterly: "You all have the contact information we have, we don't have it, you also have it, if you can't find it, we won't have a way." ”

"Well, understood, no hurry." He Yunchang seemed to want to sneer, but he grinned hard, but he didn't laugh at all, and his stiff face made an extremely weird expression, which made me feel furious when I saw it.

"What are you looking for them?" The second uncle simply asked directly.

"Hehe......" He Yunchang couldn't laugh on his face, so he could only replace it with a voice: "Don't you understand in your hearts?" ”

I was stunned, looked at the second uncle, and saw that the second uncle was still smiling bitterly, and then I remembered that in addition to Han Jia, what Xu Zeming valued most was the Tai Chi halo, but this Tai Chi halo was broken by our thoughts, according to the time, now the Tai Chi halo has been issued, and it is not Xu Zeming who is used, but the crow in the cave next to it......

If this is the case, Xu Zeming probably wants to kill us immediately!

"Mr. Xu, has you been transferred to the central ministry, right?" The second uncle asked coldly.

"That's right." He Yunchang nodded: "Mr. Xu was widowed a few years ago, and now he is not yet forty years old, and recently there is an elder's daughter, who is very close to Mr. Xu, Tai Chi dizzy, really powerful." ”

Oh? I didn't pay attention to the news in the last month or so, I didn't expect that in such a short time, Xu Zeming would be transferred to the central ministries and commissions, is it Tai Chi dizzy? By the way, as the Seventh Master said before, Tai Chi Halo will still be affected at the beginning of the effect, but the effect will soon disappear and be completely displayed on the body of the big crow.

Also, if it wasn't for this, why did He Yunchang come?
