Chapter 254: Seek and Seek

When Lu Jin returned to the house, Shui Linglong looked like she was stupid, her eyes staring straight ahead and motionless.

"Sister, sister, what's wrong with you, don't scare me." Lu Jin squatted next to her and hugged her.

Shui Linglong was useless, her face was expressionless, and even the tears in her eyes seemed to freeze, and everything had nothing to do with her.

Lu Jin was frightened, and shook the water lightly: "Sister, look at me, I am your good sister Lu Jin!"

Shui Linglong finally responded, reaching out a hand to caress Lu Jin's hair.

That's all, no more superfluous actions.

Even so, Lu Jin was also pleased, she knew that Shui Linglong just didn't want to talk, and she wasn't really stupid.

Lu Jin sat with Shui Linglong for a while, got up and closed the courtyard door and the house door with a bolt to prevent outsiders from coming in. found a quilt to cover Shui Linglong's body, and the two snuggled up to each other in the quilt, no one spoke, thinking silently about their hearts.

Unconsciously, the candle flame on the table became misty and trance, Lu Jin's eyelids were heavy and she no longer had the strength to open, she yawned, and fell asleep with her head resting on Shui Linglong's arm.

When I woke up, it was pitch black all around, and I couldn't see my fingers.

Lu Jin felt that the wall behind him seemed to have changed, and reached out to touch the soft one, and only woke up from his sleep completely after being shocked.

She slept on the soft bed at some point.

The faint moonlight came in through the window, and I could vaguely see the other side of the bed, and Shui Linglong was also sleeping soundly.

She guessed that Shui Linglong must have carried her over and slept on the bed.

Lu Jin turned over and hugged Shui Linglong's arm, as if leaning on her mother's arms, and fell asleep again.

When Lu Jin woke up again, the sky was already bright, and the water beside him was gone.

Lu Jin got up and saw that the water outside the screen was freshening up.

"When I woke up, I got hot water, and quickly washed up and ate." Shui Linglong heard the movement and said softly.

Lu Jin packed up the bed and walked out of the screen, Shui Linglong looked like usual, regaining her calmness and calmness.

After the two washed up and ate breakfast, Shui Linglong took Lu Jin's hand and said, "Let's go, accompany my sister to take a walk outside."

"Okay!" Lu Jin rushed out with Shui Linglong.

The two of them lived in the outer courtyard of the Yunqi Palace, and if they wanted to come to the lively street, they had to pass through a clearing where the disciples of the outer courtyard practiced.

The two walked normally, and met Shui Linglong's master, Pei Qing, who had a blue nose and swollen face.

Shui Linglong hesitated for a moment, and then walked over with a calm expression, and saluted respectfully as usual: "Hello master!"

Pei Qing panicked like a snake and scorpion, "Okay, okay, you have a good rest, and I'll take care of the rest."

After that, Pei Qing walked away in a hurry, as if he was afraid of Shui Linglong.

Lu Jin couldn't help but snicker, "Sister, it's still your father."

"He's not my father." Shui Linglong responded coldly and walked away alone.

"Sister, wait for me." Lu Jin chased after her and grabbed her arm, smirked a few times, and didn't dare to talk nonsense anymore.

Lu Jin followed Shui Linglong on the street at will, and inadvertently turned into a narrow alley. Lu Jin was curious and did not ask questions.

Passing by a mansion, Shui Linglong said: "This is the old mansion of Grandpa Wan Yanxi, it turns out that they all live here, and the court shocked Yang Qianhui and they were implicated and sealed here, I don't know when they will be able to resume their original liveliness."

Shui Linglong looked at the courtyard gate in a daze: "I seem to understand, why Wan Yanxi is good with him."

"What did my sister say?" Lu Jin wondered, didn't understand the meaning of what she just said.

Seeing that Shui Linglong ignored her, Lu Jin also looked over, the door was sealed, and it was obvious that it was uninhabitable at present.

———————

Just a few months ago, in the same location, at the same time, there was the same person who saw the gate with the seal and felt different doubts.

Gu Shengchao left Lu Jin in the Dawu Dynasty, crossed the desert, and came in the dust

In front of the house, the first thing I saw was the seal at the door.

It's just that the seal at that time has just been applied, and it is clean and new.

He sensed the seriousness of the situation, and immediately rushed to the restaurant run by Yang Qianhui, which was also sealed.

Rushing to Baixianzhuang non-stop, the ruins of the wall looked like a fire had just burned down.

Gu Shengchao was dumbfounded, he had no relatives in Cloud City, so he could only find an inn to live in first, and only then did he learn from his man's mouth that the palace had just undergone a great change, and the capital was subject to a curfew at night, and he was not allowed to move around at will.

The inn rested for one night, and on the second day, Gu Shengchao continued to search in the capital, and even went to Yunqi Palace to inquire about Shui Linglong, but was told that he was not there and had to return in a huff.

On the way back to the inn, I passed by the Yang family noodle restaurant in the past, and saw that the signboard on it was still the same, and I was hungry and walked in.

"What does the guest officer need?" The guy came forward to greet him warmly.

The two of them looked at each other and blurted out in surprise.

"Brother Gu!"

"Brother Ran!"

Being able to see Ran Dengjia here, Gu Shengchao was also overjoyed.

"Brother Ran, you don't run a restaurant, why did you come back here?" Gu Shengchao was anxious to know what was going on.

Ran Dengjia beckoned him to sit down: "Brother Gu is not in a hurry, sit down and eat a bowl of noodles first."

Hearing the movement, a woman walked out of it with a big belly.

"What is this?" Seeing Jiang Wan's huge changes, Gu Shengchao almost didn't recognize it.

Ran Dengjia said happily: "Sister Wan and I are already married, and we were going to invite Brother Gu to a banquet, but the distance is far away and the information is inconvenient, so I have to give up."

Seeing the affectionate eyes when the two of them looked at each other, the happy look was enviable.

"Sister-in-law, sit down, don't get tired." Gu Shengchao hurriedly got up.

"It's out of the way, I'm not that squeamish." Jiang Wan said with a smile.

After a while, Ran Dengjia brought steaming noodles.

During the meal, Ran Dengjia told about the recent changes.

The new emperor ascended the throne and prepared to conquer the king of Zhennan, Yang Qianhui's restaurant was the first to be seized, and Fang Ju, Wan Yanxi and Ma Guanshan fled with her overnight.

Jiang Wan was pregnant and couldn't withstand the fatigue of the boat, so the two stayed.

Fortunately, they were just ordinary guys in the restaurant, and the government didn't bother them.

It's just that Wan Yanxi's grandfather's old house was also seized, so he had to find another way out.

Fortunately, the Yang family's noodle restaurant has never been rented, so Ran Dengjia continued to run the noodle restaurant business to maintain the livelihood of the two.

Ran Dengjia finally said, "Cloud City has not been peaceful recently, why did Brother Gu come here at this time, it is better to leave earlier."

Gu Shengchao sighed with emotion: "I can't help myself, someone can't find Baixianzhuang, and specially asked me to come and look for it, who knows that it has already been burned down, and it is all broken walls, where to find it."

Ran Dengjia saw that there was no one else in the store, and said in a low voice, "A few people came to eat noodles yesterday, and I happened to hear some clues."

"What is it, Brother Ran?" Gu Shengchao was in a hurry, almost choking on a mouthful of noodles, and kept coughing.
