Chapter 112
Although Yan Qing's impression of her mother is vague, she is very deep about Tianling Butterfly, and her eldest brother often tells her that her mother's personality is flamboyant and warm, just like this fiery butterfly, gorgeous and colorful, which is probably the reason why she likes it.
Memories hit her like a tidal wave like a lid lifted, and Yan Qing's eyes couldn't help but redden.
Zhao Chuyun noticed her abnormality, patted her on the shoulder, and asked, "Are you okay?" ”
Yan Qing tilted his head slightly, held back his tears, and took out a cowhide bag from inside, which contained some envelopes.
"This should be the letter between my eldest brother and Xue Qing."
Gu Nan thought strangely and asked, "Miss Yan, why does your eldest brother have a connection with Xue Qing?" ”
Yan Qing said: "Back then, my eldest brother knew the cause of his father's death, and it was through Xue Qing, who connected with him, that he also helped a lot in this matter. ”
"Then it's even more strange, does he know you?" Gu Nan asked again, "Why do you want to help you so much?" ”
"His purpose is to fan the bone jade." Zhao Chuyun took the letter, opened his mouth, and saw that the envelope was indeed the same string of numbers as before, but more and denser, and he couldn't see any information.
"That's right, although Yan Shiyong has coveted the fan bone jade for many years, the clue was broken when it came to me and my eldest brother, and there has been no progress, and the battle over the fan bone jade has stopped, and it can be regarded as silent for many years."
"In order to let the fan bone jade rise again, Xue Qing spared no effort to promote it."
Yan Qing always knew that someone was helping Yanyi, but this person's identity was well hidden, and she didn't think much about it, she just thought that she was an insider, afraid of being implicated, but she didn't want the truth to sink into the sea, so she showed it in this way.
It's just that now that so much is involved, and this matter is related to Xue Qing, the purpose must not be so pure.
"Then why is he doing something?" Gu Nan still didn't understand.
"For the sake of your family," Yan Qing was silent for a moment, then looked at Zhao Chuyun and said, "Xue Qing went to great lengths to attract you, he must have wanted to use you to achieve some kind of purpose." ”
From planning the birth of Fan Guyu, Zhao Chuyun had a clue, and then used the same suicide technique to introduce him step by step, Yan Qing is now more sure of this.
Zhao Chuyun looked at a few letters and gradually became distracted, what do these strings of numbers mean?
"Xue Qing, Wuwei Daoren, Xue Gang ......" Gu Nan frowned and said, "Miss Yan said that the only thing I thought of when I found their common ground was that they were all monks. ”
Yan Qing nodded and said, "Could it be some secret book for cultivating immortals, ancient books or something?" ”
"Ancient Book ......" Zhao Chuyun's mind flashed, his eyes were bright, and he said, "I know, it's the Tao Sutra!" ”
Gu Nan clapped his hands violently: "That's right! The monks believe in the Tao, so they take the Tao Sutra as an introductory learning, and also enshrine it as a guideline, yes! ”
"I'm going to find the Tao Sutra."
Zhao Chuyun waved his hand and said, "Don't worry, Xue Gang's house should be there." ”
After speaking, he pinched it, waved his hand lightly, and a blue-skinned and black-lettered Taoist scripture appeared on the table.
Chapter 29 of the Tao Sutra, the first sentence: I will take the world and do it, I only see it as a last resort; Chapter 45, Sentence 1: Be kind and seducing; Chapter 42, the fifth sentence, the thought of passing on the public, the way to the end of the public; Chapter 41, the third sentence: The husband is the only way, the husband is the way, and the good loan is successful.
"Really!" Gu Nan looked at Zhao Chuyun with great admiration, and said, "My lord, it can be connected, and it makes sense!" ”
"Will want to take the world and do it," Yan Qing also read the Tao Sutra back then, and roughly understood the meaning, he said that he wanted to lead the army to wage war to seize the world, which would not work, but as long as people were persuaded to follow the "Tao", they could make everything get their place, and start and end well.
Looking at the transcribed passage on the paper, she asked with some uncertainty, "The 'Dao' mentioned here shouldn't be the 'Dao' interpreted in the Tao Sutra, right?" ”
Zhao Chuyun shook his head: "This is his 'Dao'." ”
"Oh, it doesn't matter what kind of way he is, he can't succeed anyway," Gu Nan was stunned by what the two said, he shrugged his shoulders and interrupted the two of them, "In addition to the mortal emperor in this world, there is also the immortal emperor, is it that he can take it if he wants to?" It's just a dream. ”
Zhao Chuyun shook his head, his expression was a little heavy, and said, "According to the movements he has made these days, this may not be really whimsical." ”
Wuwei Daoist and Xue Gang obviously believed in his so-called "Dao" very much, and those prisoners who died mysteriously, Zhao Chuyun felt that he had to be more cautious.
"But what does he want?" Gu Nan scratched his head, although he didn't believe Xue Qing, he was absolutely convinced of Zhao Chuyun, "This passage is like an unrealistic empty talk. ”
Zhao Chuyun sighed lowly, no matter what, Xue Qing was a terrible opponent, he couldn't figure out this person's thought path at all, this was indeed a bit tricky for him.
"Jinyu Restaurant?"
Suddenly, I heard Yanqing's voice, and saw that she was checking the hand of the letter, and muttered it.
Jinyu Restaurant! Zhao Chuyun's heart skipped a beat, and he asked, "What Jinyu Restaurant?" ”
Yan Qingwei frowned and said, "This is about some old things about my family, and it says that my great-grandfather once stayed in Jinyu Restaurant. ”
"I'll see!" Zhao Chuyun took the letter, "The restaurant run by my father and mother is called Jinyu Restaurant." ”
Yan Qing's face changed, she folded her fingers and pushed the time, and it was almost at that time that she looked at Zhao Chuyun in shock and said, "In this way, could it be that my great-grandfather worked with your father and mother?" ”
Zhao Chuyun looked at the dense numbers and was a little annoyed, he waved his hand lightly, and saw a group of silver butterflies flying out, waving their wings and jumping and dancing on the book.
After a while, the whole story became clear. Combined with what Zhao Chuyun knew, the fallen pearls could finally be connected.
The writer of the letter was a young student who called himself Zi'an.
Back then, he and Yan Qing's great-ancestor Yan Xingyuan were both members of the Jinyu Restaurant Intelligence Network, and later were coveted by the restaurant owner.
Later, the owner of the restaurant died mysteriously, and the Jinyu Restaurant was seized, so Zi'an went to Jiangnan to join Yanxingyuan.
At that time, Yan Xingyuan's industry in Jiangnan was rising, so he made him a housekeeper of the general government, and later the Yan family made a fortune, but Yan Xingyuan's son fell ill and died young.
Fortunately, he left two sons, namely Yan Shiyong and Yan Zhaoen, and Yan Xingyuan poured all his efforts into his two grandsons.
Over the years, Yan Shiyong and Yan Zhaoen have gradually grown up, but the Yan family's industry has gradually declined, and the old man Yan Xingyuan has also been sick in bed all the year round, and the family is constantly fighting for family wealth.
Yan Shiyong is dedicated to the imperial examination, and has no intention of family internal strife, and Yan Zhaoen is also more than willing to do it. Before taking his last breath, Old Man Yan passed the fan bone jade to Yan Zhaoen, and Yan Zhaoen separated from his ancestral family and started a jewelry shop from scratch.
What happened later Zhao Chuyun heard Yanqing say it, he closed the envelope, put his hand on his chin and thought about it.
"Who!" Zhao Chuyun was about to speak, when he suddenly felt a fluctuation of spiritual power, he waved his hand lightly in front of him, and when he heard the sound of "oops", an old man with a long beard and beautiful hair fell to the ground.
Gu Nan walked over and grabbed him up, and said, "Hey, isn't this the castle god of Kyoto?" What are you doing sneaking around? ”
"Eh, misunderstanding, misunderstanding!" Lord Chenghuang covered his sore ass with one hand, and pulled the collar that was pulled with the other, "Everyone, something is wrong!" ”
Gu Nan let go of his hand and said, "What's the matter, say it quickly!" ”
"Eh," Lord Chenghuang didn't bother to tidy up his collar, and bowed directly to a few people, and said, "These days, the ghosts sent out by Xiaoxian have been missing news one after another, and Xiaoxian originally thought that he was called back by the Netherworld. ”
"But when I returned to the Netherworld, I found that the ghosts in all regions had disappeared."
"How is this possible," Gu Nan waved his hand and said, "The most unfortunate ghosts have third-order immortal products, how could they disappear so inexplicably, have you seriously looked for them?" ”
Lord Chenghuang said "oops": "Lord Xiaogu, this human realm, the heavenly realm, and the ghost realm have all been searched, and there is no clue. ”
Zhao Chuyun frowned, and the ghost almost disappeared inexplicably...... So weird!
"Have you reported to Lord Hades?"
As soon as the city god heard this, the beard that curled up at the corner of his mouth instantly drooped, and said: "It can be said that the Lord Hades is not in the division at all, I heard the inner gate guard say that the lotus brake flowers of the West Heaven Buddha Zen are in full bloom, and the Lord was invited by the flower god to go to enjoy the flowers." ”
“......”
So coincidentally? Zhao Chuyun suddenly remembered that even if the senior brother brushed the face of the Immortal Emperor, he would not ignore the flower god Tao Xianyun.
He was silent and ordered: "Tell all the ghosts in the underworld to go out to find people again, and they will see people alive and corpses when they die!" ”
"Yes, Lord Wang," Lord Chenghuang nodded, then took out a piece of cloth from his arms and handed it to Zhao Chuyun, saying, "Lord Wang, you can take a look at this thing." ”
"Darkiron Silk!" Gu Nan snatched it, the incision on it was very neat, and it was a piece of clothing corner trimming, "This is Lao Fan's, where did you come from?" ”
Lord Chenghuang said: "Xiao Xian picked it up on the road when he came, when Lord Xiao Fan won the first place in the Championship Competition, and won this Xuantie Silk is well known in the underworld, but such a precious thing was left on the side of the road......"
"Are there any signs of a fight at the scene?" Without waiting for him to finish, Gu Nan asked.
Lord Chenghuang thought about it and shook his head.
"Lao Fan left the backyard for only a stick of incense, how did he disappear quietly?" Gu Nan was puzzled.
Yan Qing suddenly said: "Perhaps, what is the reason for them to leave voluntarily?" ”
Lord Chenghuang wiped the sweat from his forehead, opened his mouth, closed it again, and went back and forth a few times, but he didn't say a word.
Zhao Chuyun noticed his abnormality, this old man was afraid that he was hiding something and didn't say anything, he was hesitant for a long time, could he not say something?
He looked at him with a smile and asked, "Lord Chenghuang, you can say whatever you want, and now in an extraordinary time, if you don't report it, you will also be guilty?" ”
