Chu Li didn't know the road, but based on the open space on both sides of the road, he could guess that he was going back to Beijing on the official road this time. As a result, not only did they not encounter bandits along the way, but they didn't even meet anyone who intercepted and killed.

The carriage was bumpy, and Chu Li leaned against the window helplessly, listening to Shen Yu chattering in his ear. Originally, this journey should have been leisurely, but this little princess insisted on sticking to her, and she was called stand-in protection. If it weren't for Chu Li's fact that he was a little soft and not hard, I am afraid that he would have been thrown out to Shen Yu at this moment.

Shen Yu: "Sister Qingli, aren't you hungry?" I don't think you've eaten anything along the way. ”

Chu Li: "I'm not hungry." ”

Shen Yu persevered and asked: "Then are you thirsty, there is a stream in front of us, and we ......"

"Whoa." Chu Li interrupted the slightly strange conversation between the two, "You don't have to come to me to find out for your brother, I don't like conspiracy, let alone conspiracy." ”

Shen Yu knew that there would be a showdown, but when it really came to this time, she panicked again: "I, I'm just ......"

"It's not something you can't say, but since you want to know, let's say it." Chu Li lowered her eyelashes, "My parents have no news since I was born, all I know is that they put me in front of my master's door when I was born, so that I grew up in the rivers and lakes since I was a child." I don't remember their names, but I've only seen them in one scroll of portraits. The woman in the portrait is wearing the phoenix-patterned jade pendant around her waist.

This is also why I know this jade pendant, and why I want to enter the capital with you, because I want to know the truth back then. Why did they suddenly abandon me, and why did that jade pendant fall into the hands of the royal family, and why did they disappear for so many years.

Your imperial brother once said something to me about immortals, but unfortunately I didn't believe it. It is not difficult for a person with strong martial arts to fly on the wall and rise in the air, I think your mother or the emperor should have seen my parents. ”

"You, you're her daughter?" Shen Yu's face was shocked, and then he realized that he had said the wrong thing, and hurriedly remedied, "I mean, that phoenix-patterned jade pendant is from your mother?" ”

Chu Li raised his eyes, and his inquiring gaze swept straight towards Shen Yu: "What do you know?" ”

"Phew—"

"Let's rest here for a while, and then set off in an hour."

The frame stopped suddenly, Chu Li looked at Shen Cuo who opened the curtain and looked at him with cold eyes, and his tone was indifferent: "The fifth prince is really timely." ”

"Please also ask Miss Qingli to stay away for the time being, our brothers and sisters want to say something considerate, I hope Miss Qingli will forgive me." There was a faint smile on Shen Cuo's face, thinking that he had already listened to all the words of Chu Li's conversation with Shen Yu just now.

Chu Li pretended to be annoyed and got out of the carriage and walked to the stream to look at the scenery.

She didn't know how much the brother and sister would believe their words, but as long as they believed it, it would be enough for Chu Li.

On the carriage, Shen Cuo retreated from outsiders, and only after making sure that no one was eavesdropping, did he open his mouth with a solemn face: "She is the descendant of those two people." ”

Shen Yu was a little incredulous: "It's just...... How could it be such a coincidence? ”

"Grandma, do you remember what your mother said back then?" Shen Cuo's tone was heavy, "She said that Feng Gongzi once mentioned to her that she did have a one-year-young daughter, but unfortunately she had no contact over the years. We've seen that person, don't you think, Qingli and that person look very similar? ”

"But I don't know how many people are similar in the world, how can I confirm that Sister Qingli is that person?" Shen Yu was worried, "It's not like we haven't looked for it privately in the past, but it's ......"

"This matter is confidential, and even my father doesn't necessarily know more than we do." Shen Cuo turned Shen Yu's body and looked at her: "If this is true, then Qingli is our half-sister." ”

"What if it's false?"

"Then she must know a thing or two about the events of that year, and even know where the real descendants of that person are." Shen Cuo let go of his hands, "Father knew that we were not his own sons, and now he keeps us just because of the secret of the jade pendant." We can't sit idly by, for the sake of our mother, who died tragically, and for our own lives. ”

Shen Yu nodded: "Then I'll go find Qingli." ”

……

The stream is murmuring, and the fish are feasting. As soon as Chu Lifu approached this place, he felt the strong water aura and wood aura in the air, which were comparable to the immortal cultivation realm.

If there is a difference, there must be a source.

Chu Li slowly closed his eyes, carefully feeling the aura in the air.

"There are two of them."

One is at the bottom of the stream, while the other is at the foot of the hill across the stream. One is water, the other is wood, and the two are fused together, which promotes the majestic water spirit and wood spirit here.

Chu Li was just about to enter the water to find out, but was pulled by Shen Yu, who arrived in a hurry: "Sister Qingli, don't act impulsively, although this stream looks shallow, it can actually be deep." ”

"Really?" Chu Li suddenly reached out and grabbed Shen Yu's waist and flew with her to the middle of the stream.

"Ah......h

Chu Li's feet swept down, and he flew to the foot of the mountain on the other side of the stream in an instant by the tension of the water surface like a dragonfly dotting water, and his clothes were fluttering.

"Are you afraid?" Chu Li's movements were really not gentle, "Since you're scared, why do you always come to me." ”

Shen Yu let go of his arms, leaned against a tree in horror and whispered: "I, I just saw Sister Qingli and wanted to get close to ......"

Chu Li chuckled lightly, noncommittal.

This mountain is evergreen, and Chu Li clearly felt that the source of this wood's spiritual power was next to the tree behind Shen Yu. This tree is not tall, but it has a lot of foliage, which is better than the thick branches of the tree next to it. Chu Li easily twisted a green leaf from the tree, and a touch of green light instantly drilled out of the leaf and went straight into Chu Li's fingertips.

Shen Yu was not a monk, and he couldn't see the changes in Chu Li's fingertips. When Chu Li pulled her away from the tree, she was still in a very confused state.

After seeing the whole state of this tree, Chu Li knew the difference. The branches and leaves are flourishing, but the main trunk is withered, as if all the essence of the body is used to nourish the branches and leaves, which is very abrupt. Chu Li's eyes were empty, his eyes were radiant, and he only put his hand on the trunk of the tree that was almost rotten, and drew a wisp of spiritual power from his body along the meridians of the tree and spread it all over it.

"Found it." Chu Li slammed his palm through the trunk of the tree, and after entering the tree, he used his palm as a fist to take out a spiritual grass that looked like a lingzhi from the hollow trunk.

Suddenly, the prosperity of this tree retreated, and the green leaves of the tree were as if they were swept down by the autumn wind, and they scattered from the tree with a whistling, and countless fluorescent green points of light were also absorbed by the spirit grass in Chu Li's hand. Chu Li pulled Shen Yu to the side, and when the leaves fell, Fang picked up the thing in his hand and observed it carefully.

The aura of this thing is introverted, and Chu Li can't remember what he has in his hand after searching in his mind for a long time.

Shen Yu looked at the spirit grass in Chu Li's hand, and suddenly exclaimed, "This is ...... Shuzhi! ”

Chu Li pretended to know a lot about this thing: "You actually know this thing." ”

Shen Yu's eyes were a little sad: "The "Records of Medicinal Plants" has long recorded Shuzhi, but this thing is often born in the mountains, and I don't want it to appear here. ”
