Chapter 822: The Man Who Knows Kindness
After solving the matter of the leyline fire dragon, Yan Yin and Su Yanying prepared to return to the northern frontier.
On the way, Yan Yin proposed to go to see Liu Qingyan's mother.
Since Liu Changhe's death and Liu Qingyan's accident, Mrs. Liu has become a loner. Although there are maids in the house to serve, for an old man who has lost his husband and daughter, the loneliness in his heart will become deeper and deeper as he grows older.
Tian Yuan City.
After two years, Tian Yuan City seemed to be in decay a lot.
This kind of decay can be seen everywhere not only in Tianyuan City, but even in the entire southern Xinjiang.
Under the general trend of the stormy army pulling out the Yanyun Mountains, the economy of southern Xinjiang has been greatly affected. It can be said that the economic exchanges between southern Xinjiang and the imperial capital have been severed.
Even in northern Xinjiang, although there is a new golden road connecting southern Xinjiang and northern Xinjiang, this cannot meet the needs of the economic development of a huge southern Xinjiang.
It was also in this situation that the once prosperous southern Xinjiang began to gradually decay. This kind of decay, even the remote Tianyuan City has been affected.
There are far fewer people in the city, and the streets that used to be bustling are somewhat deserted.
When Yan Yin and Su Yanying came to the front of the Liu Mansion, they saw that the gate of the Liu Mansion was closed, and there was only an old woman in front of the mansion who was cleaning the dust.
The more she looked at the old woman, the more familiar Yan Yin felt, and after a closer look, Yan Yin recognized her as Mrs. Liu.
Mrs. Liu seemed to feel something, and couldn't help but look at Yan Yin and Su Yanying.
She hadn't seen Su Yanying, but she knew Yanyin.
"Dingbei Hou, it's you!" Mrs. Liu said with some joy, "Why are you here?" ”
Looking at Su Yanying, Mrs. Liu asked, "Who is this?"
Yan Yin opened his mouth and said, "This is my wife, Su Yanying." ”
After saluting Mrs. Liu, Su Yanying whispered, "Hello Mrs. Liu." ”
Mrs. Liu immediately invited the two into Liu's mansion, and then served tea in person.
Yan Yin observed Mrs. Liu, her hair was already gray, and the wrinkles on her face were deeper. And her clothes are also a little shabby, and they have even been sewn.
"Madam, where are the maids and guards in the house?" Looking at Mrs. Liu, Yan Yin asked.
"I dismissed them. Mrs. Liu said, "Some have left, and some have found another way out." ”
Although Mrs. Liu didn't say it, Yan Yin still knew the reason.
After Liu Changhe's death and Liu Qingyan's accident, Liufu's economic source can be said to have been cut off. In addition, Liufu has done good deeds and grace over the years, so the money in the mansion must not be so abundant.
So Mrs. Liu, who couldn't open the source, could only throttle, and those maids and guards also understood this, so they gradually left.
Just from the fact that Mrs. Liu still had to clean the Liu Mansion herself, wearing sewn clothes, Yan Yin knew that Mrs. Liu had not been doing so well in the past few years.
She is not young anymore, she is already in her sixties. She is not a martial artist, nor is she a cultivator, so I am afraid that there is not much life left.
Thinking of this, Yan Yin couldn't help but feel a little sad.
"Madam, I have come this time to take you to the northern frontier. Qingchen and Lin Qing'er are now my wives, and they have also given birth to children for me. You are the stepmother they recognize, so I want my children to meet you as a grandmother. Yan Yin said sincerely: "I hope Mrs. Liu can agree." ”
"Qingchen and Qing'er, have they both given birth to children for you?" Mrs. Liu said happily, "Wow! I used to look forward to Qingyan's girl marrying a good family, so that I could hug my grandson as soon as possible. It's a pity ......"
Speaking of this, Mrs. Liu sighed lightly and said, "I am very pleased that you have this heart." It's just that this Tianyuan City is my hometown, and I'm already old, so I don't want to run around. Therefore, I still want to stay in this Tianyuan City and spend the rest of my life. ”
"Madam" Su Yanying said, "We understand your feelings. But seeing you guarding this empty Liu Mansion alone, not only do we feel distressed, but I am afraid that Master Liu and Qingyan will also feel distressed. ”
Nodding, Yan Yin said, "You will go to the northern Xinjiang with us to live for a while, if you miss Tianyuan City, Yan Yin can send you back." There is a dragon foal by my side that is extremely fast, and it only takes less than a few days to get from the northern frontier to Tianyuan City. ”
As he was talking, the god of wind and fire outside the Liufu and the White Lady entered the Liufu one after another and came to the hall.
Pointing to the wind god, Su Yanying said to Mrs. Liu, "It is the dragon horse, it is very fast, and it will not take long to travel between the two places." Now that Qingchen and Qing'er are new mothers, you are their stepmother, don't you want to go and see your grandson?"
"This ......" Mrs. Liu muttered for a moment, then nodded and said, "Okay!"
Mrs. Liu simply cleaned up her salute, and then carefully cleaned the Liu Mansion with the help of Su Yanying, and then went to Liu Changhe's tomb to put on a stick of incense, and then went to the north with Yan Yin and Su Yanying.
Because Mrs. Liu is a real ordinary person, three meals a day must be eaten. Therefore, every half-day of the flight, Yan Yinbian would ask Su Yanying to check the nearest town, and then go down to find an inn for Mrs. Liu to eat.
Although this will delay the time a little, it will not delay too much.
On this day, the three of them were settling down in a place called Hookah City, and after finding an inn, they let Mrs. Liu dine.
And Yan Yin and Su Yanying also ate something, and were about to check out and leave, when they suddenly heard a group of people in the inn who seemed to have traveled a long way chirping, "Childe, that fat man is too heavy, let's bury him!." ”
"Yes, that fat man is dead, why do you have to take his coffin to the north?" Another person said, "It was too expensive to spend so much money to buy an ice crystal to help him seal the body." ”
Hearing this, Yan Yin's heart moved, and she unconsciously looked over.
The one who was called Childe was a young man, and this young man gave Yan Yin a very familiar feeling.
It seems that he had seen this person somewhere.
At this time, a woman in the group stood beside the young man and said to everyone, "Childe, he naturally has his own ideas when he does this, over the years, Childe has helped you so much, this time I just asked you to help him, and you complained all the way." Isn't that a bit too much? ”
Seeing this woman, Yan Yin also felt quite familiar, as if she had seen it somewhere.
This made Yan Yin strange, he had never been to this hookah city before, but today he saw two people who he was very familiar with but couldn't remember for a while.
As she spoke, the woman looked at the young man and said, "Jiang Jue, don't take it to heart, I will always support you." ”
Nodding, the young man named Jiang Jue said to the others, "If you don't want to go with me, you can leave on your own." If I go to the northern frontier, I will definitely take that coffin with me!"
Looking at Su Yanying, Su Yanying nodded, and then slowly closed her eyes.
After a while, Su Yanying slowly opened her eyes.
Her expression changed for a moment, Su Yanying sighed secretly, and then said to Yan Yin, "There is a team of carriages outside the inn, and one of the carriages has a coffin on it. The man in the coffin is him!"
Taking a deep breath, Yan Yin couldn't help but clench her fists.
After a long time, he stood up and walked towards the man named Jiang Jue.
Seeing Yan Yin coming, Jiang Jue was puzzled at first, and after carefully observing Yan Yin, he said with a surprised face, "It's you!"
Yan Yin was stunned for a moment, and then said loudly, "You know me?"
The woman also covered her mouth and exclaimed, "Why are you here?"
Seeing that both of them were like this, Yan Yin could conclude that he should have seen these two people, and they knew him.
Yan Yin was about to speak, when Jiang Jue glanced at the people behind him, and then said to the woman, "You take them to dinner first." ”
Nodding, the woman suppressed the surprise on her face, and then led the others upstairs to the inn.
Yan Yin invited this Jiang Jue to their wine table, introduced Su Yanying and Mrs. Liu to him, and then said to this Jiang Jue, "Brother Tai and that woman seem to know me, and I also feel as if I have seen you somewhere, but I didn't think about it for a while, I don't know if Brother Tai can remind me." ”
Because Su Yanying used magic to cover her face, Jiang Jue couldn't see Su Yanying's beautiful rain geese. Just nodding to Su Yanying and Mrs. Liu, Jiang Jue then looked at Yan Yin and said, "Dingbei Hou is busy with affairs, and it's normal not to remember us." Dingbei Hou Ke still remembers a group of people he had met in the Fengyun Mountain Range back then, and the two of us were among them at that time. My name is Jiang Jue, and the woman is named Dong Mei. ”
Hearing Jiang Jue say this, Yan Yin suddenly remembered who they were.
At that time, in order to test him, Qin Shuang asked him to go to the Fengyun Mountain Range to get the Nine Yang Burning Grass. At that time, there were Emperor and his entourage, Xu Qiqi, Ye Qingchen and Mingyue, and Lu Renjia. Later, Lu Renjia was forced away by him, and then only the five of them remained.
When they entered the depths of the Fengyun Mountain Range, they met Linglong and several of them led by Han Daniu.
At that time, Linglong's team included her and Han Daniu, as well as Feng Shao and Long Yunxiang, as well as three other injured people. And among the three people, two of them are Jiang Jue in front of him and Dong Mei, the woman in front of him.
"It turned out to be you. Thinking of who Jiang Jue and Dong Mei were, Yan Yin said to Jiang Jue, "The coffin in the carriage outside the inn, how did you meet the people in it?"
Jiang Jue was not surprised that Yan Yin was able to discover the coffin in the carriage outside the inn and know who the person in it was. Because he knew Yan Yin's strength, he had also heard about him.
"About three months ago, I led this team to the north. But while passing through a place, I met him. At that time, he was seriously injured, and half of his body was already useless. Looking at Yan Yin, Jiang Jue said slowly, "It's a coincidence, because Dingbei Marquis, you once helped me and Dong Mei in the Fengyun Mountain Range, so after leaving the Fengyun Mountain Range, we learned about your deeds in detail, and also learned that you have three sworn brothers." When I saw him at that time, I hadn't thought about it, and when Dong Mei reminded the previous general Feng Yunxiao and the people of the war in southern Xinjiang, I was sure that he was your sworn brother in Dingbei. Unfortunately, his injuries were so severe that although I spent a lot of money to treat him, I couldn't treat him at all. One night more than a month earlier, he had succumbed to his injuries. I think since he is your sworn brother in Dingbeihou, you definitely don't want him to throw his body into the wilderness. So, I decided to take his body with me to the north and hand it over to you. ”
"Thank you!" Yan Yin patted Jiang Jue on the shoulder and said gratefully, "Thank you!"
"Jiang Jue is like this, it's just a reward for gratitude. "When they were in the Fengyun Mountain Range, he and Jiang Jue had another person who was seriously injured, and it was Yan Yin and Ye Qingchen who helped them find medicinal herbs to heal their injuries. It is also because of this that the two of them will be grateful to Yan Yin.
Those who help others, people will also help.
Sighing lightly, Jiang Jue said, "Dingbei Hou, his coffin is on the carriage outside the inn." ”
"Then I don't know what last words he left before he died?" At this time, Su Yanying asked aloud.
Shaking his head, Jiang Jue said, "He didn't say anything, just kept laughing." There was a deep sadness in that smile, which made people feel very sad. ”
The more Jiang Jue said this, the more sad Yan Yin's heart became. And the hatred for Fengyun Xiao is also deeper!
