At this moment, Ah Bing suddenly walked into the courtyard, he glanced at Gu Chen, and Er Niu, who was sprayed with wine, and couldn't help but wrinkle his forehead;

Swish!

Erniu's body trembled, shook the wine on his body dry, and said, "It's nothing, we are discussing the identity of the ancestor of Gu Chen." ”

Syllable!

Gu Chen pushed Erniu away and said, "Brother Bing, is there something wrong?"

"Oh, the king wants to invite the two of you to dinner together, and now they are ready. ”

"Hmm, don't you leave time for Lingling and their mother and daughter to recognize each other?"

Ah Bing smiled, "Family affection will never be estranged, the two of them get along very well now, let's all work together, besides, the king may have something to ask you." ”

Gu Chen nodded knowingly, "Okay, then let's go together." Then he and Ah Bing and Erniu left here.

Although Lingling's mother is in charge of Winterfell, and even has 100,000 Winterfall troops under her command, she is also the most powerful person in the entire cultivation world, but she does not pay attention to pomp and circumstance.

Although the big ice palace is hers, the place where she lives is only a small courtyard, and the banquet is held in her room, which has a warm feeling.

Although the Northern Cold Prefecture looks like a desolate ice field, the banquet is rich and abnormal, not to mention anything else, just all kinds of demon beast meat, the quality is not comparable to the outside world, chewy, taste, it is extremely beautiful.

"Lingling, come, these are ice beads, although they taste a little cold, but they are very warm and replenishing, and they are good for your body, taste them. ”

At this time, Mu Lingling's mother smiled brightly, and kept picking up pieces of things that Gu Chen didn't know the name of, and put them on her plate, and Mu Lingling's face was also full of happiness.

Suddenly, Mu Lingling's mother looked at Gu Chen and said, "Gu Chen, right?"

Gu Chen hurriedly stopped his movements, "My lord." ”

Mu Lingling's mother waved her hand, "What an adult is not a big person, you are not an outsider, my real name is Xue Qingfei, you can call me Aunt Xue." ”

"Aunt Xue. ”

Xue Qingfei nodded with a smile and said, "Lingling told me that you came from Qingfeng Mansion, and the journey took nearly a year, and I know that you must have encountered a lot of things this year, so I really thank you." ”

Gu Chen hurriedly shook his hand, "Aunt Xue, what you said is serious, there is a continuous relationship between me and Lingling, and helping her is not only what I promised Master Mu, but also what I should do." ”

Hearing Gu Chen mention Master Mu, the smile on Xue Qingfei's face paused slightly, and then said, "I'm actually really curious, what kind of forces did Zhengtian provoke? In my impression, he should be a very calm person, how did he get like this now? and even let you bring Lingling to me." ”

Gu Chen took a long breath and said, "Aunt Xue, in fact, it's not that Lord Mu has provoked any forces, but that the current Qingfeng Mansion is about to become unsafe. ”

"What do you mean?"

Gu Chen didn't hide it, and roughly said that the underworld passage appeared in Qingfeng Mansion, and now it has spread, no one is sure when there will be a powerful force to make up his mind, for the sake of safety, Mu Zhengtian asked him to bring Lingling here.

After listening to Gu Chen's general narration, Xue Qingfei's face did not have much turmoil, but she just sighed, "It turned out to be the passage of the underworld, it seems that Qingfeng Mansion can no longer be peaceful, maybe when the passage will be opened, at that time, not only Qingfeng Mansion, but also the entire Fangzhou will become a battlefield." ”

Gu Chen nodded approvingly, "Aunt Xue is right, Lord Mu thought of this in advance, so he asked me to send Lingling here, no matter what happens to Fang Zhou, anyway, you are definitely safe here." ”

Gu Chen's last sentence faintly had the meaning of patting a sycophant, Xue Qingfei couldn't help but laugh and said, "The fact is also true, it's not Aunt Xue and I blow it, the underworld may be quite deterrent outside the Northern Cold Prefecture, but in our Northern Cold Prefecture, even if it is really against them, it is not necessarily who will kill the deer." ”

Gu Chen originally planned to just shoot a silent little fart just now, but he didn't expect Xue Qingfei to climb up the pole, and he really dared to say it.

Fighting against the underworld?

That's right, Gu Chen admits that Winterfell's strength is very strong, but how can it be an opponent of the Underworld army?

Just when Gu Chen didn't know how to answer, Ah Bing spoke aside.

"Actually, what the king said is true. ”

"In the records of our Winterfell City, we have fought with the underworld army no less than five times, the most recent one was more than a hundred years ago, when we dispatched 30,000 Winterfall troops and 100 natural cultivators, and in three months, we wiped out all 70,000 underworld troops, and even finally hit the depths of the Beiming Sea, directly destroying the last remaining underworld passage. ”

Gu Chen looked at Ah Bing in a daze, and was a little stunned for a while.

If Xue Qingfei said just now, Gu Chen suspected that it was bragging, but now, he was convinced, because he knew that Ah Bing would not lie.

Could it be that the strength of the underworld is just exaggerated?

Or is Winterfell's combat power far stronger than he knows?

30,000 Lindong Army plus 100 Natural Cultivators, and actually wiped out 70,000 Underworld Army? Gu Chen didn't feel like it was real.

Suddenly, Xue Qingfei laughed self-deprecatingly, "Actually, it's not that simple, the decisive battle with the underworld more than a hundred years ago has consumed very little of our elite strength in Winterfell, and speaking of which, we can't win." ”

It turned out to be an elite force.

Gu Chen suddenly realized, so it makes sense, the elite strength must not be compared with the strength of the ordinary army, one to ten is possible.

"That's right. Xue Qingfei directly skipped this topic and said, "What does Zhengtian think? Since you have sent all the Lingling, why don't you send Wan'er and Chun'er together? Could it be that they have already had their own families, isn't it convenient?"

Wan'er?

Gu Chen couldn't help but be stunned, if there was no such name, he would have subconsciously spoken, Chun'er was already married, and he and Wu Ci went to Fangzhou City, which was also a relatively safe place, but when the name Wan'er appeared, he didn't know how to speak for a while.

Because he vaguely remembered that if he remembered correctly, Lingling's eldest sister was called Mu Wan'er, but she had already been killed by the Xuanyin Sect.

Doesn't Xue Qingfei know?

Seeing that Gu Chen was suddenly stunned, Xue Qingfei couldn't help but wrinkle her forehead; "What's wrong Gu Chen?"

"Huh? Gu Chen came back to his senses violently.

Xue Qingfei was suspicious, she looked at Mu Lingling beside her, "Lingling?"

"Huh?" Lingling looked as if he didn't know what was going on, and his eyes were a little hidden.

Seeing this, Gu Chen said, "Ao, Aunt Xue, in fact, this is the case, Chun'er is already married, but they are not in Qingfeng Mansion now, they have moved to Fangzhou City, Fangzhou City, which can be regarded as a relatively safe place." ”

Xue Qingfei nodded, "What about Wan'er?"

"That...... Miss Wan'er had already left Fangzhou. ”

Xue Qingfei looked suspicious: "Leaving Fangzhou?"

"That's right, that's the case, Aunt Xue should still remember Xiongba, right?"

Xue Qingfei thought for a moment and nodded, "Remember, Xiong Ba, sick ghost, Ruolan girl, the three of them have always been Ziyang's right-hand men, what's the matter?

"Wan'er and Xiong Ba are gone. ”

"What?" Xue Qingfei looked incredulous.

Gu Chen affirmed, "That's true, because Xiong Ba has always been Wan'er's master, but more than ten years ago, Lord Ziyang passed away due to a recurrence of an old injury, Xiong Ba left the Dragon Envoy, and Miss Wan'er followed him to practice." ”

After listening to Gu Chen's words, Xue Qingfei nodded slowly for a while, "So that's the case, it's really a thing or a person, when I left Qingfeng Mansion...... Unexpectedly, the departure of the departed, the departure of the departed, is really sighing. ”

Mu Lingling lowered his head to eat, but secretly looked at Gu Chen, his eyes were full of gratitude.

Because she didn't dare to imagine, if there was no Gu Chen, how would she explain the whereabouts of her eldest sister Wan'er, to tell the truth?

If Xue Qingfei hears the news, will she be able to bear it?

......

There was talk and laughter at the banquet, Gu Chen and the others seemed to be a family that rarely got together, and by the time the banquet dispersed, it was already late at night.

Gu Chen stayed alone in a courtyard, and Er Niu took a pass token given by Xue Qingfei to measure the scale of Winterfell in a boring manner.

The sparse moonlight poured out, Gu Chen stood quietly in the courtyard, at this time, he couldn't help but think of Dongfang Yue.

Mu Lingling was reunited with his mother, and he, the only relative now Dongfang Yue, was missing, a small boat, which had just had a harbor to dock, but became rootless duckweed again.

Suddenly, a footstep sounded, and a tall shadow appeared on the ground, Gu Chen turned around, it was Ah Bing.

Looking at each other, Ah Bing said, "The king wants to know what's wrong with Wan'er, since you can't speak in front of her, now say it, she can hear it." ”

In the end, it was discovered.

Gu Chen knew that the reaction at that time was too sudden, and it was almost impossible to hide it from Xue Qingfei, but now it seems that this is indeed the case.

Gu Chen glanced up at the hazy moon, was silent for a while, and said, "Actually, Miss Wan'er was killed many years ago. ”

Speaking of this, Gu Chen slowly closed his eyes, as if he had made some kind of decision, he opened his eyes violently, and said, "It was the Fang family who did it, and it was the Fang family who pretended to be the hand of the Xuanyin Sect against Wan'er, but the current Fang family has been bulldozed by Lord Mu, and there is not a single living mouth left, which can be regarded as revenge." ”

At this time, in the quiet room, the candle flame was beating, Mu Lingling was lying on the bed, looking at Xue Qingfei, whose eyes suddenly turned red for some reason, and said, "Mother, Ling'er is by your side now, why are you still crying?"

Xue Qingfei shook her head vigorously, "Mother didn't cry, mother is happy, it's so happy to see you, okay baby, you can rest quickly." ”

After saying this, Xue Qingfei hurriedly left the room, and after coming out, tears could no longer be controlled, she heard everything Gu Chen said, Mu Wan'er did not leave with Xiong Ba at all, but died, and it was ...... who was killed by the Fang family.
