In the letter left by Tang Yulou, the map that is said to be very important is hidden in the forbidden place of Youke Village, which is also where the burial group of the Baiyan clan is located.

However, after Xia Yanru and the others went last time, the passages in and out were destroyed, and Tang Yulou's letter only said that the map was hidden in the forbidden place, but the specific place was not said, only that Xia Yanru would know when she arrived.

Ji Wenlin was still quite speechless about this, to be honest, the impression of Yu Kezhai on him has always been bad, because Xia Yanru was seriously injured there for the first time, if he had a choice, he actually didn't want Xia Yanru to go to that place again.

It's just that at the moment, Tang Yulou obviously wants Xia Yanru to get the map in person, if there is no conspiracy, then it must be because this map is too important, so he doesn't want to pretend to be someone else's hand.

Although Lichun City is not far away, it will take some time to come and go, but fortunately, there is still some time to make the handover with the fifth child, so Xia Yanru plans to go to Youke Village first during this period.

The letter to Tu Hongxing also had to be sent to him, Xia Yanru looked at the distance on the map, and it was just enough to go to the military headquarters to deliver a letter to Tu Hongxing before going to the village of Youkezhai.

Ji Wenlin wanted to act with Xia Yanru, but because of the two members of the Kyoto Research Institute who were still staying in Spring City, in order to confuse each other's sight, he could only stay in Spring City with full worries.

"Be careful on the road, if there is anything you need to directly order Qi Ju to do, he can be trusted." Ji Wenlin was still a little uneasy, and when he sent Xia Yanru away, he was still nagging and instructing.

Xia Yanru accepted them one by one, she did suffer a big loss last time in Youkezhai, no wonder Ji Wenlin was so nervous, it was herself, in fact, she also had some lingering feelings about the family burial group.

After saying goodbye to Ji Wenlin, Xia Yanru drove away from Spring City with Qi Juan and his two subordinates, and the first target was naturally Tu Hongxing's military headquarters, and the half-day drive quickly arrived at the destination.

On the Chuncheng side, Ji Wenlin had already greeted the military department in advance, so as soon as Xia Yanru arrived here, she met Tu Hongxing smoothly without any hindrance.

"This is the letter that Uncle Lou left for you." Xia Yanru handed over the intact letter, the two of them were in a corner of the training ground at this time, and no one usually passed by here, so it was very convenient to chat privately.

Tu Hongxing took the letter with a complicated expression, first rubbed the envelope with his hand, and only after a long time did he sigh lightly and tear it open and take out the letter inside.

"Wu'er, Zhan Xinjia!

I have always known that I am not a competent father, let alone a good husband, and I am ashamed of your aunt, as well as you and Wanli.

Counting everything I have done, I have never had the luxury of hoping to get your forgiveness, although the choice to die was also forced to do so, but it is undeniable that I did give up your aunt and your brothers and sisters in disguise.

Maybe by the time you read this letter, I have already gone to see your mother, but I don't know if she is willing to deal with me, a bad person who abandoned her.

Before I put pen to paper, I felt that I had a lot to say, but when I put pen to paper, I found that it was difficult to describe a thousand words.

Father, Tu Yan. ”

Tu Hongxing read this letter for more than half an hour, and it wasn't until the final payment appeared that he was stunned to restore the letter according to the creases and put it into the envelope.

Xia Yanru had been sitting quietly next to him without disturbing him, although she had not seen the contents of the letter with her own eyes, but it was not difficult to guess from Tu Hongxing's changing expression that this letter must be full of slow fatherly love.

Unlike the letter to Xia Yanru, Tang Yulou didn't seem to want his son to be involved in these things, so a lot of what he was doing was barely mentioned in the letter.

Tu Hongxing originally thought that this letter would be about explaining the reason why he abandoned his wife and children in the first place, but he didn't mention this matter from beginning to end, so it can be seen that even if he did it again, I am afraid that Tang Yulou would still make the same choice.

"He's always been so self-righteous, and where am I as vulnerable as he thinks?" Tu Hongxing was stunned and still had these grievances.

It is true that through this letter, he can feel Tang Yulou's full of fatherly love, but he is long past the age when he needs father's love, what he needs is to understand the truth behind all his actions.

"Uncle Lou also doesn't want your brothers and sisters to get involved in these things." Xia Yanru couldn't help but comfort.

"But in fact, I've been involved for a long time, haven't I?" Tu Hongxing's tone was not very good, but it was not aimed at Xia Yanru.

"Wrong, you just touched the periphery, you haven't approached the real core yet, even Uncle Lou, it's just just touching the threshold, this matter is far from being as simple as you think." Xia Yanru shook her head, if it weren't for the accidental intervention of the Kyoto Research Institute this time and Tang Yulou's letter, she probably would have always felt that this matter was not complicated.

"Isn't the 'elixir' the core?" Tu Hongxing was taken aback, and the first thing that came to mind was naturally the 'elixir', a mysterious organization that had been running through all events.

"The 'elixir' is just a puppet." Xia Yanru had no intention of talking about this topic in depth, since Tang Yulou's last wish was to keep his children away from this matter, then she also had to try not to continue to bring Tu Hongxing deeper and deeper.

Tu Hongxing raised his eyebrows in surprise, and when he saw Xia Yanru stop after saying this, he instantly understood that the other party was not going to say it in detail, and he was a little helpless, but he had no position to ask the other party to satisfy his curiosity.

"Don't think about it so much, this matter is really complicated, and it's not that I want to hide anything, the main thing is that there are still a lot of things that I haven't figured out." Xia Yanru explained.

"Well, can you tell me the truth of everything when this is over?" Tu Hongxing looked at Xia Yanru expectantly.

"Yes." If I were still here. Xia Yanru answered in her heart in the second half of the sentence, in fact, she didn't have much confidence to figure out the truth of the whole thing, but it was certain that if she knew the truth of everything, and she was still here, she would definitely tell Tu Hongxing about it.

"Actually, the moment he closed his eyes in my arms, I didn't think about whether to forgive him." Tu Hongxing suddenly talked about the day Tang Yulou died, "At that time, my mind was blank, and the only thought was that Wan Li and I really became orphans without a father and a mother." ”

Xia Yanru didn't make a sound to disturb, but quietly listened to the other party's mental journey, she understood very well that at that moment, Tu Hongxing's heart must be very tormented!

"It's also a shame to say, I kept saying that I didn't forgive him, but in fact, when I knew that he was Daddy, my first reaction was that our brother and sister were not orphans, but thinking of the difficulties of Auntie's life, I really couldn't easily forgive him." Tu Hongxing smiled self-deprecatingly.

"It's a pity that before I can figure it out, he also left forever with A-Niang, if I could have loosened my mouth at the beginning, at least I wouldn't have left so many regrets in vain, right? Sister Xia, did you say that before he died, would he not be able to blind his eyes? ”

"No, Uncle Lou must have felt your forgiveness in his heart, and as far as he is concerned, as long as your brothers and sisters live well, he will have no regrets." Xia Yanru thought about it, but still said her thoughts.
