Chinese Nan Zhao looked in the direction pointed by the fat ginseng, and sure enough, when she saw Lu Donglai hesitating outside the courtyard gate, she got up and walked towards him.

"Little Taoist!" For a while, Lu Dong came to call her Little Lingnu, and she called him Little Taoist, and they didn't let each other go.

The medicine cloth on Lu Donglai's body has almost been withdrawn, only the hands on his hands have not been withdrawn, hearing her voice, this guy is another poor posture just passing by, and said with his back behind his back

"Little spirit girl, what's the matter?"

"I should have asked you that, right?" She looked at the other person's cheek, feeling that this guy wanted to come in just now, but he didn't dare to come in.

"Nothing to do!" He replied firmly. Nan Zhao asked

"Where is my home?"

"Him?" The little Taoist priest emphasized with a look of surprise

"How do you know where he is?"

"You don't know?" She said puzzled

"Hasn't he gone with you to the barracks to guard the prison monument these days?"

"He hasn't been to Poor Dao in days!" After the other party finished speaking, he raised his eyebrows and said curiously

"He told you he went to the barracks with me?" Nan Zhao shook her head, she only knew that Shen Ru went out every day, she naturally thought that he had gone to the barracks to guard the monument!

Lu Donglai suddenly had absolutely nothing wrong, his eyebrows tightened, and he asked her in a different tone

"Didn't you say that Wen Ye's Black Flame Staff was here with you last time? Where? "Nan Zhao only knows that since the last time she fought with the Dao God, the Black Flame Staff has always been stored in the box in the room, and the Guogong Mansion is a treasure land, and she has always been very relieved.

She took Lu Dong into the room and took out the box, but it was empty. The Black Flame Staff isn't in there!

"It's only your Shen Gongzi who took it!" Lu Dong came to remind her. She defended him

"Maybe you didn't think it was safe to put it here, so you changed places, right?" Lu Donglai didn't know what he was thinking, he should have refuted her before, but this time he echoed her

"Perhaps!" He didn't stay long, and after he left, Nan Zhao was a little uneasy, and always felt that something bad had happened, so she sat on a round stool in the room and asked Fat Ginseng

"Do you know when he took the Black Flame Staff?" Fat Ginseng immediately shook his head and replied

"Am I going to die? Let your father-in-law know that I spy on him, and you are not allowed to stew me in soup? Nan Zhao didn't ask anything else, the only thing she could do at the moment was to wait for Shen Rugu to come back and ask in person, she didn't wait for anyone at dinner, she didn't have much appetite, and almost all the meals on the table were eaten by fat ginseng.

The time has passed, but in the courtyard of the building outside the house, the cicadas and insects in summer are not stopping. The candles on the desk had been dyed twice, but she still didn't see Shen Ru come back, she became more and more uneasy, and immediately carried the night light and walked towards the courtyard where Lu Donglai lived next door.

On weekdays, there are two maids here to serve, and at this hour, he was basically sent away, so when he entered the courtyard, it was very quiet.

Fat Ginseng said after her

"The Taoist is not here, little spirit girl!" It was indeed not there, Nan Zhao immediately turned around and walked towards the courtyard where Zhou Yang lived, but saw Xunlong and the others standing outside with torches, as if they were going out.

It's so late, where are you going? She walked over quickly, just in time to meet Zhou Yang hurrying out.

"What's going on?" She asked nervously. Zhou Yang replied

"It's my grandfather that there is something going on, Brother Jiu rushed over to deal with it, your body hasn't healed yet, go back and rest earlier, right?" She is not sleepy today, and when she heard this, she asked with some concern

"If he hasn't come back yet, does Brother Nine know where he went?" When the other party heard this, his eyes seemed to dodge, and he quickly returned to his usual answer

"If you have been going out early and returning late late, maybe you have been delayed by something today, he is acting safely, there should be no danger, you don't have to worry!" With that, he stepped on his horse and emphasized

"Brother Jiu has to go, you should go back quickly!" Nan Zhao obediently stepped aside and watched them go out from here.

Lu Donglai was also gone, and her intuition told her that Brother Jiu had something to hide, and as soon as they walked on the front foot, she went to the stable to lead her horse out of the back foot and chased it out through the back door.

There was no one on the street in the middle of the night, and Zhou Yang and his party had more than a dozen horses, holding torches, and could not follow. Nan Zhao was afraid of being discovered, so she followed from a distance, and halfway through the follow, she found that the place they were going to was Fairy Mountain.

Along the way, Zhou Yang almost didn't stop, heading straight towards Fairy Mountain. Nan Zhao went up with Lu Donglai once last time, and the horses were able to go up the mountain, and when they arrived at the fairy cave on the mountain, it was already the second half of the night, and they saw from a distance that Wang Fuwei's torch illuminated the originally gloomy cave.

Zhou Yang entered the cave, and then walked out, and a person wearing a night suit came over a few steps to report

"Lord Wang, Shen Gongzi has been holding the Black Flame Staff since then, and he has disappeared!" As soon as Nan Zhao heard the words 'Shen Gongzi', his whole heart sanctured.

"Who is it?" Xunlong was alert and found that there was movement not far away, drew his sword and came this way, Nan Zhao didn't light a torch, and followed them all the way to the mountain of light, so the other party didn't see who she was for a while; Xunlong knew that this mountain was very evil, and he didn't even need to see who she was, so he flew and slashed at her.

"Hunt for the dragon! Stop it! Zhou Yang stopped behind him, and then someone raised the torch and illuminated Nan Zhao's face hidden in the darkness.

Zhou Yang walked over, and the black robe on his body stained the depth of the night. She didn't see surprise on his face, and listened to him

"Someone followed me in the morning, and Brother Jiu guessed that it should be you!" He sighed, but he didn't know how to say the rest of the words.

Nan Zhao approached him and asked

"Brother Jiu, is that person in a night suit your spy?" Zhou Yang didn't hide it from her, and answered knowingly

"Tianji Mansion was cultivated by my grandfather for Brother Jiu many years ago, and everyone in it is very good at tracking and listening to spy reports. His name is Yunhe, and he is the first probe of Tianji Mansion! Nan Zhao's eyes fell on Yunhe's body, this person looked ordinary, if he didn't wear this night clothes, walking on the street, it would not attract attention, and he was thin and windless, just like Lu Donglai, he was a light achievement.

This is the basic skill as a detective, not necessarily able to fight, but must be able to track, in case of danger can escape, in order to bring the letter back safely.

She had never seen anyone from Tianji Mansion before, and she could probably guess that Brother Jiu had such a centaur in his hands.

"What did you just say happened to Shen Gongzi?" She asked Yunhe directly. Yunhe was only loyal to the king of Tai'an, and when others except Zhou Yang asked him, he was left with silence.

Zhou Yang knew that she had come here with her, and he couldn't hide it, so he handed Yun He a gesture to allow him to speak!

"In the past few days, his subordinates were ordered to follow Shen Ruguo, the first few were walking around the city, and there was nothing special, until today, he went out of the city, on this fairy mountain, his subordinates followed him all the way to this fairy cave, and saw him enter the cave with his own eyes, but he did not come out for several hours, and his subordinates had a strange intuition, so they entered to check and found that there was no one in the cave for a long time!" Yunhe has been following Nan Zhao for a long time, so he naturally knows what kind of status she has in her own prince, and her attitude is very respectful.

Nan Zhao listened carefully, and his face was very solemn. Why did Shen Ru bring the Black Flame Staff to this cave where the statue of Wen Ye was enshrined?

How could it disappear into thin air?

"Nanzhao ......" Zhou Yang called her. She looked back and saw that he had a look of reluctance on his face, as if she was afraid that she would be upset.

"Brother Jiu, what do you want to say?" Although he took the initiative to ask, he was afraid to hear the next words in his heart.

But Zhou Yang had to say, he told her

"Shen Rugu may have been ...... all along. Lie to you! She didn't understand why her ninth brother, who had been steady and quiet since she had been talking little, wanted to say such a joke to her, she wanted to explain something for Shen Ruso, but the other party didn't want her to keep her in the dark and tell him directly

"Last time, you said that you injured your head in the battle with the Dao God, so you can't remember many things, so you don't know that it was actually Shen Ru who colluded with the Dao God that night, in order to trick you into opening the sarcophagus and taking out Wen Ye's Black Flame Staff!" She immediately shook her head in denial

"Nope! No way! Brother Jiu, you weren't there, how do you know? ”

"It was the poor road that told the prince!" Lu Donglai came out from the other side and told her. She frowned, looked over, a little angry,

"Lu Donglai, why did you come out to make trouble again?"

"Troublemaker? What Poor Dao said is the truth, did you think you really knocked Poor Dao unconscious that night? Just by your hand? Lu Donglai came over and told everyone in detail about everything that happened that night.

"The little spirit girl received a sword in her left hand at that time, she tore off a piece of cloth, wrapped it a few times, and then took the black flame staff she stole from the sarcophagus to the east of Fairy Mountain, the birch forest, there is a grassland in front of that side, the grass is deep above the knee, the grass is shallow above the ankle, the Taoist god is wearing a long black cloak, and his face is led in the hat cloth, you are late, he wants you to hand over the things you stole from the sarcophagus, at that time he did not say that it was Wen Ye's black flame, which was broken by your own mouth." Nan Zhao had completely forgotten what had happened at that time, but when she heard Lu Donglai explain everything so clearly about the clothes worn by the Dao God, she felt that these were all true.

Lu Dong looked at her with a tangled expression, and walked closer to her, he took off the Qiankun sword on his back and handed it to her.

She didn't know what she meant, but the other party told her

"The Qiankun Sword is not only a sword, it is also a spiritual object, you carried it on your back that night, everything that happened, it has experienced, since you can't remember it, then let it tell you what happened later that night." Nan Zhao didn't know whether to believe it or not, and subconsciously looked at Zhou Yang's side.

"There are some things that you can not believe from what others say, but since you have experienced it yourself, how can it be wrong?" She no longer hesitated, took a deep breath, closed her eyes, and covered the hand with the spirit flower on the Qiankun Sword.

In an instant, some images rushed into her mind, filling in the blank memories she had lost that night. She asked Shen Ru

"Did they cast any curse on you?"

"You shouldn't have ......"

"I know that staff is important, but no matter how important it is, it is not as important as yours!" Feng Shu took Shen Rugu to exchange with her, she deliberately threw the fake Black Flame Staff into the distance, rushed over and hugged Shen Rugu.

The Dao God, who should have been angry because of her reversal, said it a long time ago

"I want to thank you for being there, if it weren't for his full cooperation, how could you help us open the sarcophagus that only you can open, and bring the Black Flame Staff back to the light of day?" She turned her head and asked

"So, what did he mean by that?" He didn't answer. She asked unwillingly over and over again

"None of what he said is true, is he?" In the end, she could not continue to deceive herself in his silence, and asked the question that had been in her heart all along.

"They all said that you and Wen Ye were husband and wife in their previous lives?" He said it wasn't what she thought it would, as long as she believed him again and did what he said.

So how do you do that?

"Give them the Staff of Black Flame!"

"Why?"

"The Black Flame Staff was originally hers!"

"You originally belonged to her......" She almost lost control of her emotions, her palm slipped from the Qiankun sword, and her body sat on the ground.

Zhou Yang immediately stepped forward to support her, and when he saw her holding her head, he said uncomfortably

"How so? How could it be ......"

"You saw it all?" Lu Donglai, who saw all her pain in his eyes, held a sword, and compared to Zhou Yang's concern, his calm appearance was very consistent with the coldness of his born Taoist.

Nan Zhao sat on the ground and did not respond for a long time. Those memories came back, and brought back all the heartbreak of that night.

She seemed to have two dreams at once, one was a nightmare and the other was a sweet dream. In the end, the nightmare came true, but the dream was gone!

Lu Donglai said to her again at this time

"Last time you entered the fairy cave in front with me, I guess you still remember, you should go in and have a look tonight!" She got up slowly and walked towards the entrance of the fairy cave, Zhou Yang was afraid that she would fall during this period, so she followed closely.

However, she was not as weak as she had been some time ago, and she walked into the cave, where other royal guards were waiting for her with torches.

There is not much change from the last time I came, the small cave is full of sacrifices offered by believers, if there must be any change, it must be the fairy statue of Wen Ye!

Nan Zhao walked under the fairy statue, raised his head up, and his gaze fell directly on the right hand of the stone statue, the last time they came, the right hand was empty, and she and Lu Donglai deduced that the one in this hand should be the Black Flame Staff.

But tonight, the statue is no longer with an empty right hand, it is holding a staff, and the stone statue itself is exactly what the Black Flame Staff looks like.

This is not really Wen Ye, but a statue representing her, just like the gods and Buddhas offered in those temples, and what is presented on the body is the appearance of the stone statue god at the moment.

At that time, Wen Ye was sealed, and her Black Flame Staff was also sealed separately in the sarcophagus, so the right hand of the stone statue was empty at that time.

And now...... She closed her eyes, she didn't want to look at this statue of Wen Ye anymore, she only felt a cramping pain in her chest!

"Nanzhao ......" Brother Jiu's worried voice was behind her, she didn't want to cry in front of them, she turned around and came out of the fairy cave at a loss.

Standing outside were the royal guards she was familiar with, looking for dragons, tigers, and phoenixes...... They all know the story of her and Shen Ru, and they see that she was born and died for him, so when they look at her at this moment, they are full of sympathy.

But these sympathetic gazes stung her and made her feel suffocated, and she ran quickly to the place where Fang had tied her horse, and Zhou Yang was afraid that she would not be able to think about it, so she chased after her.

"Nan Zhao ......" she turned over on her horse, looked back at him with empty eyes, and whispered

"Brother Jiu, I'm fine." Brother Jiu, I'm fine...... These five words, but listening to Zhou Yang's mood is even heavier.

He knew too well Nan Zhao's feelings for Shen Rugu, at this time, the more he showed that it was okay, the easier it was to have an accident, and when he saw her riding down the mountain, he immediately chased after her.

Knowing that she needed time to accept this, he did not want to bother, and sent the royal guard back, and he followed alone on horseback.

At first, Nanzhao rode wildly, the night wind blew her light white skirt and long hair, and later, she seemed to be tired of running, slowed down, and rode aimlessly forward.

In the distance is the thousand-year-old city of Yunzhou City, Chi Chengying, long, magnificent and powerful, and near is before dawn, under the dark red sky, they are riding horses, walking like this one after the other.

Suddenly, Nan Zhao stopped and got off the horse, and Zhou Yang also stopped a few meters away from her.

She stood motionless for a long time with her back to him, her eyes on the road they were taking, and the horses not far away were holding on to the grass by the roadside.

Zhou Yang also got off the horse and walked to her, not knowing what she was looking at, so he didn't ask anything.

"That day, our group entered Yunzhou City from this official road......" she said stupidly, her eyes still attached to the road she stepped on.

"I still remember, in the carriage, I held his hand...... His hands were always cold, and he couldn't cover them no matter how he covered them, and I wanted to hear him tell stories about our past lives, but he didn't look at me...... I had heard rumors about my previous life early on, but I only remember that on the Yin Man Road, he hugged me, in order to block the tearing of the hundred ghosts, and he said to me, Xiao Zhao, I will never let go again...... "The two encounters on the Yin Man Road, they have lived and died, she thinks, there is nothing in this world that can be more true than what he said when he faced the soul flying away!"

She said unwillingly

"After I was injured, he stayed by my bedside every day, even the soup he drank, he boiled it with his own hands, fed me one bite at a time, I was afraid of the cold, he made charcoal for me, I was tired, he held me and waited for me to sleep, even had nightmares, he held my hand tightly, told me not to be afraid, said that he was by my side......" These, are they all lying to her?

She refused to believe it, and shook her head vigorously,

"He also said to me that day, Xiao Zhao and Ru will be together forever, no matter life or death, Brother Jiu ......" She turned her head to look at Zhou Yang for help,

But why...... Why is it true when a person deceives people? Zhou Yang's eyes were dim, and he replied with empathy

"Lies are the most touching in the world—"

"Lies are the most moving...... her eyes were distracted, and she couldn't remember how many times she had cried for Shen Rugu in the past, but this time, she was as cold as if she was dead.

The sadness and sadness were all squeezed into her body, and she was overwhelmed.

"Nanzhao, you cry when you're sad, okay?" All the way, Zhou Yang was waiting for her to cry, he wanted her to cry after accepting Shen Rugu's deception and betrayal, and then let himself go.

But she didn't cry, except for saying those words, she was in a daze. This reminded him of the last time she came back from the Yin Man Road, she hurt her soul and went crazy, which was a little close to this moment.

Hearing his words, Nan Zhao turned around and asked him

"Brother Jiu, why am I crying? He's not dead! "She bites the words 'he's not dead' very clearly.

Zhou Yang frowned tightly and said no more. He took her back to the Gongfu, and she still didn't shed a single tear along the way, and when she went back, she lay down on the bed and fell asleep.

I'm afraid that she deliberately pretended to make him feel at ease, and after he relaxed his vigilance, he did stupid things, Zhou Yang didn't sleep after returning home, and kept staying in the outer compartment, asking the maid from time to time if she was awake.

She slept deeply, had no nightmares, and slept until the evening before she opened her eyes. The moment she opened her eyes, she saw a person sitting behind the screen, and she subconsciously called out a name.

"As before......" Zhou Yang heard clearly in the outer room, who she was shouting. He put down the book in his hand and let out a long sigh, knowing that what he was thinking was right, and the calm she had shown the night before was just her instinctive protective reaction after so many tribulations.

In fact, she hadn't really accepted the fact that Shen Rugu had left with the Black Flame Staff, she was still looking forward to it in her heart, and when she slept and opened her eyes, everything was a nightmare.

Zhou Yang knew that it was cruel, but in order to let her quickly recognize the facts, he got up and whispered to the inside

"I'm Brother Jiu!" Nan Zhao was still stunned with a sleepy face, and the scenes of the night before came to her mind, and she kept telling her one thing.

Shen Ru left, taking the staff of his wife Wen Ye in his previous life, and left her without even saying goodbye.

Every morning in the future, she will never see him standing by the bed waiting for her to wake up, and she can no longer hug him into her arms, holding his cold hand in the palm of her hand to warm it.

Finally, two lines of tears slowly slipped from the corners of her eyes, she closed her eyes, her heart was empty, and the cold wind kept pouring in from the outside, and she couldn't stop it.

In order to make herself feel better, she stood up, walked to the shelf where the sword was placed, and took down the sword to ward off evil spirits on it

"Nanzhao, what are you going to do?" She held the sword in her hand and whispered to him

"Brother Jiu, he gave me this sword, since everyone is gone, what are you doing with this sword?" After saying that, she threw the sword out of the window with all her might, and then remembered something, so she walked quickly to the dresser, opened it and took out all the contents inside, and said excitedly

"These ...... These are also his things, I don't want them anymore, I can also do without them......" waved his hand, and all the bits and pieces of ornaments were thrown into the garden outside the window, and disappeared.

After throwing it away, she felt that it was not enough, there must be something else, she walked around the room in a panic, looking up at her so depressed, seeing that she opened the wardrobe, there was a white robe that Shen Ru had changed and washed, which was washed and stacked in it by the maid, she picked it up rudely, like throwing something just now, and was about to throw it out of the window, but after all, she was reluctant to hold the robe and kneel and cry bitterly

"He's gone...... He's really gone...... I don't have a home again...... I don't have a home to go back to......" Zhou Yang really couldn't bear to see her in such pain, he walked over helplessly, knelt on the ground, reached out and dragged the robe she held in his arms out, and comforted

"Nan Zhao, give this to Brother Jiu, he is gone, but you still have Brother Jiu, and in the future, Brother Jiu's home will be your home!" Cat flutter Chinese
