In the vermilion forbidden city, Feng Jianxue was hurrying through the buildings, avoiding the patrolling team from time to time, and then leaving a mark for Heshia to pay attention to.

He knew the approximate location of Excalibur, but the guards on the way were a nuisance.

Oh no, the sound over there has stopped, is the battle over so soon? Feng Jianxue felt the pressure slowly coming up.

At this time, another team of guards patrolled by, and they were flanked by several suspended reconnaissance self-discipline units, scanning back and forth.

Seeing such a configuration, Feng Jianxue couldn't help but shrink her head, standing in the corner for the time being, not daring to act rashly, and at the same time trying to converge the heat source on the surface of the body to reduce the body temperature on the surface to avoid being detected.

Fortunately, many things in the city are relatively old, and if there is a new scanning detector in the Federation, it can be easily detected even through the wall. And just when Feng Jianxue was in trouble and was stuck here for the time being, Heshia on the other side also encountered some problems.

"You're the second miss, aren't you, aren't you, aren't you......"

In front of her, a short old man looked excited, his hands raised high, as if to shout something for joy.

She followed the mark left by Feng Jianxue before, but just as she passed by a remote pavilion, a dark shadow suddenly jumped out and blocked in front of her.

"I don't know who the second lady you are talking about, but it could be my mother." Heshia was slightly relieved to see that no one else was around, thinking about how to appease the person in front of her first.

"Mother? Could it be that the second miss gave birth to a child outside, how could this be, such a beautiful second miss would actually give birth to a man with a child? No! It's just, simply, simply unacceptable, why? Why so, why won't you come if you're still alive? He clutched his head in pain.

"She must have been persecuted, right, someone must have deceived her, she has such a good personality, she is too easy to be deceived, she knew it earlier, she knew it earlier, I should have stopped her at that time......"

"I'm a little embarrassed, but this is not the place to talk, is there any quiet and uninhabited place?" Heshia was in a hurry.

"Oh, yes, yes, it's not very safe here, you come with me." With that, the old man led Heshia into the pavilion next to him, and then carefully closed the door.

The pavilion was very quiet, and he seemed to live alone, and there was a painting hanging on the wall facing the main entrance, which showed the scene of a phoenix bird taking off.

"That's better." He sat Hehia in the hall and brought a refreshing pot of tea.

"I don't have anything hot here, only herbal tea for you to drink."

"Well, it's fine, I don't like anything that's too hot either." The girl shook her head, then looked around and saw that there were no electrical appliances in sight.

After a moment's sitting, the old man scrutinized himself in front of Heshea, nodding his head from time to time, and then shaking his head again.

"Do you see something?" The girl asked in a whisper.

"Are you the daughter of the second lady?" Asked from the other side.

"I guess so, but my mother never mentioned the city, and I only learned about it not long ago, and then came here."

"Did she say her name?"

"She said at home that her surname was Gu and her name was Yongtian."

"That's her, she said before that she doesn't like the word grace very much, it's too luxurious and distant."

"My name is Ge Lianfeng, and I am your mother's distant uncle and uncle, and the old people in this city are basically related to each other, so there is nothing to say." This will gradually calm him down.

"Are you here to help your mother retrieve the sword?" He continued.

"No, in fact, my mother has passed away, and she has never mentioned it to me before." Heshia shook her head in frustration.

"What, she, she's dead?" The one on the other side is unbelievable.

"How did you die?" The other side asked through gritted teeth.

"I died of illness, and my father found a lot of doctors and tried many methods, but it still didn't work." Heshia sighed.

The old man on the other side fell silent, his teeth clucking.

"If it weren't for Qianlou's argument with your mother...... he said for a half-sentence, then stopped and shook his head.

"Well, no one can tell whether those things are right or wrong...... If you don't mention it, what about you, what about you now? ”

"I'm living alone now, but I'm fine." She was afraid that if she couldn't say it well, the old man opposite was forced to stay.

"Hehe, are you afraid that I will keep you? That's not true, I have a different point of view from your uncle, and even if I was one of your mother's supporters, I wouldn't do such a boring thing. ”

"It's good that you're out there, and it's good if you don't come back." He sighed.

"Can you tell us what really happened back then? What I've always learned is a few words, not a complete one. ”

"What happened back then, it is estimated that it will take several days to finish speaking, I will only tell you a rough outline."

"That's the 'sword protector' represented by your mother, who decided to give up the city and let everyone live in other cities in the jade skirt, so that they don't have to struggle to the death in this barren and bitter cold place.

"But your uncle didn't think so, or the older generation at that time was opposed, thinking that this was simply a betrayal, a betrayal of the oath of thousands of years, when the 'god generals' protected the door, thousands of miles away from the stars, many dead and wounded, and finally settled down in this jade skirt, but now it is scattered? So what are they. ”

"The people gathered here are all descendants of those who fled back then, once they disperse, they will never be able to gather again in the future, we can still make our own decisions here, but when we go to other cities, we have no power, and the bottom of the people will be slaughtered sooner or later, and then quietly."

"In this regard, the 'sword protector' is also deeply guilty, but the helpless thing is that the classic secret techniques of the year have gradually been lost, and there is no point in persisting anymore, and even the 'sword protectors' are unwilling to let future generations inherit this responsibility." He shook his head and said that he was also one of the 'sword protectors' back then.

"And then, how did Mother leave?" Heshia continued to ask.

"This is more complicated, at that time, the T2-level AI 'mirage' in the city was about to reach the time of melting, so the older generation of people in power took out the treasures in the city and traded with a certain force in the outside world, and sent a piece of T2-level AI in the black market, and in this transaction, there were people in the older generation who regretted and opposed, and there was an internal conflict, and your mother was also involved."

"During this period, your mother was injured by Qianlou and imprisoned in prison, and then it was the agent of the office who transported the AI mastermind who saw that the situation was wrong and wanted to take things away, but we stopped him, and then he took your mother as a hostage threat."

"Because your mother is the next generation of the 'sword protector' in the city, and she is also the most talented successor in a hundred years, she is expected by many old people, so I was hesitant to hand over the AI mastermind at that time."

"But in the end, this matter did not work out for various reasons, and the two sides continued to fight, and then we saw your mother lying in a pool of blood with a gunshot shot in the chest, and her body was also burned in flames." He shook his head.

"In this way, your mother should not have died at that time, it was just a disguise, I will say how the other side is willing to shoot such a beautiful person."

Although he didn't die, he probably left a secret wound in the conflict, and when he became pregnant, he didn't dare to give birth to two children at the same time, so he froze one first, Heshea contacted the past, slowly understood what happened back then, and sighed in his heart.

Her estrangement from her sister stems from this dislocation, and many tragedies could have been avoided if they had grown up together.

Time passed slowly, and Heshia sat in this quiet and almost dark hall for a long time, when suddenly Feng Jianxue's voice came from the earphones again.

"Where is it, I'm going to arrive at the ancestral hall where the sword is placed."

In the darkness, the faint sound stood out.

The old man's expression on the other side changed, but he seemed to remember something, smiled bitterly, and continued to sit down.

"That divine sword, don't mention it, in fact, there is nothing to grab, and the forces that traded with us back then didn't take a fancy to it."

"If you want to take it, go and take it, but I will sit idly by at best, and it is impossible to assist you."

"Actually, I don't care about Excalibur or anything." Heshia shook her head and stood up, looking around.

"But you guys, do you really not want to leave here?"

Her long gray hair gradually turned black, and a faint pale blue glow appeared in her eyes, like the flowers of Tilan blooming in the dark world.

The aura that slowly exuded from this girl's body, the blue magic light sand floating on her side, and the Qingying ancient sword that slowly condensed in front of her gave the old man in front of him an unprecedented shock and impact.

"I, I...... Could it be that in my lifetime, I have seen the secret technique of Qingluan, which has been lost for thousands of years? ”
