At the bottom of the back mountain, the road to the forbidden land is a long stone staircase that descends diagonally.

The entrance of the cave is behind a large ancient tree in the middle of a mountain cliff, these places are not only steep, but also very steep, not to mention that this mountain is closed at any time, even if it is not sealed, that kind of place ordinary people dare not go to at all.

Before, when the man was under the cliff, he flew directly to the entrance of the cave with her, and when he went down the stone steps later, Xia Lin also wanted to hug her, but He Peier didn't let her.

She has hands and feet, and her body has more or less ability, so why should she be hugged.

The two of them walked down the stone steps arm in arm, and when the light dimmed later, some small pieces of moonstone would be inlaid on the cave wall to illuminate.

The Xia family's soul treasure moonstone, in addition to helping the Xia family gather spirits to cultivate, can also be used as a radio light in these poorly lit places, which is easy to use.

The way into is a little far, and the space under the stone steps becomes wider, there is no damp environment as imagined, and the stone walls are also very smooth, waking up with the white light of the moonstone, not at all like a dungeon or cellar, more like a dungeon.

There were no guards at the entrance of the cave before, and when I came here, there were people in some key positions, but there were not many people, He Pei'er came to the place where Xia Chen was held, and I saw three people on the whole road.

The cell where Xia Chen was imprisoned, let's say it was a cell, except for a large iron cage, there was no other place to look like a cell, there were beds and tables in it, even teapots and cups, and there were no torture instruments around.

He Pei'er felt that as long as Xia Chen sat on the bed and crossed his feet, he could directly practice retreat, which was really a real retreat, and it was not even a remand.

He Pei'er came over, Xia Chen was originally sitting at the table in a daze, but when he saw someone appear, he also stood up, slowly walked to the big iron door, and bowed his head to her and Xia Lin in the back.

This guy really wants to compromise, but he doesn't know what conditions he has to ask Pei'er.

Xia Lin's brows furrowed, and he lifted a chair and placed it a few steps away from the cage for the woman to sit on.

"You talk to him, I'll go to the front, and I'll come back to pick you up later."

On the way here, Xia Lin had already said that Xia Chen wanted to see her alone, He Pei'er nodded, "You go, after the talks, I'll come out by myself." ”

The two of them, one was sitting and the other was talking to each other with their waists bent, and the corners of Xia Chen's mouth, who was standing in the cage, had a smile on his lips.

The relationship between the sect master and his wife is really true, it's really good.

Xia Lin left quickly, and He Pei'er turned her head to look at the people in the prison with a little feeling.

"Steward Xia, your identity was revealed in order to send me down the mountain. Afterwards, you were locked up in this place, and I couldn't let Xia Lin let you out as the sect master's wife, I feel sorry for you. ”

To tell the truth, He Peier felt a little guilty about him, but his mouth was too tight, he didn't mean to reveal a word, he thought about it selfishly, and he didn't dare to let him out, and he didn't know where to put him, and it was a question of whether to drive him away or stay.

"Madam, it's not your fault that I'm too stubborn, and it's all my own choice."

Xia Chen was very calm, he had already thought about everything when he decided to talk to He Peier, and he had been staying for more than a month, and today he wanted to go out.

"Okay, it's not good for us to talk about the previous things anymore, did you come to me today to say something? Or is there something I can do to help? ”

Xia Linzhi said that he probably wanted to confess some things, and by the way, he would mention some conditions, as long as it was not too much, between the time he helped him before, He Peier would agree.

"Madam is a refreshing person, I don't have any other meaning to disturb you this time, I just want to go out from here and continue to work for the Xia family."

He said it quite easily, but it's a pity that the traitor has been identified, how can the Xia family, who is single-minded, use him.

"Steward Xia, you also know that I am just the sect master's wife, it stands to reason that as long as the sect master is in me, I have no right to interfere in these things in the family, if what you just said is the purpose of you looking for me, it may disappoint you."

Okay, confess, I don't have any information, even if I agree to release you, Xia Lin won't agree.

Xia Chen naturally knew this truth very well in his heart, nodded his head and said, "I know what happened last night, the matter of the Strange Li Clan is not only today, it appeared when the ancestor and their generation, but no one noticed that this matter is not as simple as revenge, it may also involve the death of the second grandfather." ”

"Second Master Zu passed away? How do you know? ”

Things are getting more and more complicated, I originally thought that it was just the old enemy of the Xia family who came to the door, but I didn't expect that the second grandfather was also involved, who is this Xia Chen.

is not the third grandfather, is it the second grandfather who passed away.

"Steward Xia, the second grandfather is the one who bears the holy blood inherited by the Xia family, you opened your mouth immediately, you must make it clear how much you know, otherwise no one in the Xia family will let you go." Xia Chen was still silent, but He Pei'er no longer allowed him to keep silent like a clam shell, the other party had been lurking for nearly a thousand years, and his appearance almost made Xia Yan sleep for a long time, and he didn't know who to point his head at next.

"Madam, I know the seriousness of this matter, and I will make it clear in person, but before that, I want you to promise me to let me participate in this incident, catch that person with my own hands, and avenge the second grandfather."

This is the condition he wants, He Pei'er smiled, "Steward Xia, you are the people of the second grandfather." "Why do people who are not his care so much about his life and death, the second grandfather has disappeared for so long, he has not returned to the Xia family and has not revealed his whereabouts, but he knows that he is dead, and the two are secretly connected, not the relationship between master and servant.

This time, Xia Chen didn't keep his mouth shut anymore, nodded and said, "That's right, I'm from the second grandfather." However, it has been more than 500 years since we last contacted him, and there has been no news of him since then, when he had already tracked down the strange Li clan, and had the idea of informing the Xia family to encircle and suppress him, but unfortunately he has lost contact since then, I guess he has been killed. ”

"This matter is so important, how can you keep it in your heart?" Listening to what he meant, the second grandfather is not a bad person with any selfish intentions, although he doesn't know why he left, but he is secretly doing things for the Xia family, and he has not been kicked out of the house.

"I secretly reminded the sect master at that time, but he didn't pay attention to it, you must know that the second grandfather and the fourth grandfather are brothers of the same lineage."
