The reason why Yun Ziya named the villa Yunyin back then meant that there was no other thing, and that he hoped to warn the descendants of the Yun family to stop and hide their edge. This is also to show their position and posture to the Great Xia royal family and those in the court who regard the Yun family as a thorn in the flesh and the wealthy families of the rivers and lakes, and the Yun family has no intention of competing with them in the court or the rivers and lakes.

And Yunyin Villa is indeed worthy of the word "hidden". The villa is adjacent to the north of Yunyin City in the south, and the land of the three states of Daxia in the north, and the Heluan Mountain Range between the two places of Xialiang in the north. The name of He Luan has a long history, and it is rumored that in ancient times, Qingluan, one of the nine chicks of the phoenix, had cultivated in this mountain, and finally became a phoenix, broke through the sky and turned into a rainbow. And if there is a powerful person standing in the clouds and having a bird's-eye view of the territory of Daxia, you will find that this mountain is like a green luan flapping its wings and resisting the wind.

Heluan Mountain is full of forests, mountain cliffs, steep climbing, there was a wandering poet who left countless poems after almost stepping on the entire mountain range for seven years, the most famous of which is "Don't ask the traveler to climb the mountain, the immortal steps on the clouds and is also sorrowful".

This section of the mountain in the Yinxun Prefecture and the north of the South Liang is just east-west, if it is directly over the mountain and crossing, regardless of the fatigue of the carriage and horses, the property consumed by crossing the mountains and mountains, the distance alone is afraid that it will take several months, before the departure is the warm rain Su everything, after arriving may have been frost to dye the red forest. There is a pass thousands of miles southwest of Yunyin City, which is called Tiger Leap. Tiger jumping pass and even the land of Daxia, after leaving the customs is a canyon, which can lead to the south beam. Because of the dangerous terrain, Tiger Leaping Pass became the only treaty port between the two dynasties. The canyon outside the gate has been used and developed by many well-intentioned people, and many border villages and towns have gradually formed here. Because the place is neither within the territory of Great Xia nor under the jurisdiction of Southern Liang, it is a land outside the law. There are few people living here, and most of the residents are notorious bandits and villains in the rivers and lakes of Xia and Liang, who live here in order to avoid the pursuit of the imperial court and the masters of the rivers and lakes. Of course, because of this, the black market trade is developed here, and there are also some black and white forces in the two countries who have changed a plaque to do business here. The reason why the two imperial courts turned a blind eye to the development of this place was also because the power of the place and the scale of the towns formed year by year could become a barrier to restrain the military and political forces on each other's borders. Therefore, as long as there is no such thing as intruding on the lives of the people on the border or slaughtering the caravans of the two countries, the courts of the two countries are also happy to see these forces blocking the iron hooves of the enemy's border army.

The west side of Yunyin Mountain Villa flows through a river, which was originally a mountain stream and descends from the mountain, and was later widened by local residents for generations, and named Luanru River. There is also a local folk myth that says that there was a Buddhist monk in the mountain to participate in meditation and enlightenment, and the mountain stone where he meditated every day was inspired by the monk's Buddhism to give birth to spiritual wisdom, and was moved by the monk's piety and oozed tears from the stone cracks every day, and then the tears turned into mountain springs, and gathered streams, this stone also made a vow, if the monk is not a bodhisattva fruit for a day, it will not only tears a day, and the monk is offered with stone milk. The world does not know whether the Bodhisattva stepped on the lotus and left, but he received the blessing of this mountain milk river for thousands of years. The milk of the mountains passes through the city from north to south, and then merges into the east of Dadu to enter the sea.

And Yunyin Villa also led into the village, digging a lake in the hundred-acre manor. The lake is called Shangxian because of its resemblance to a crescent moon, and the lake divides the villa into two parts: the inner and the outer parts. The Waifu occupies 60% of the land of the entire villa. It is a place for the stewards of the villa, the staff of the palace, the daily deliberation and administration, the cultivation of life, and the banquet and hospitality of the palace. The place surrounded by the two ends of the moon hook of Shangxian Lake and the back mountain is the inner house of the mountain villa. There are pavilions and pavilions with different styles, courtyards and villas, all of which are the residences of the Yun family and the royal family.

At this moment, in a plantain-covered courtyard in the inner mansion of the villa, a woman dressed in a garb yellow brocade dress is standing under the eaves of the main pavilion in the courtyard, looking through the rain curtain and the dim twilight that intersect the heavens and the earth. Although she had deliberately suppressed it, the anxious look wrinkled between her eyebrows seemed to be something that only she had not noticed. The rain hits the plantains, and no one is worried.

Hurried footsteps sounded at the gate of the small courtyard, and a figure in a robe hurriedly walked into the courtyard. This person took off the hat on his head, bowed directly in the rain, and said at the same time: "Miss, I just went to the front yard to ask, but the owner of the village has not come back yet, and he has not sent someone back to report the news first. The woman who spoke was actually a woman of about twenty years old, this maid had her hair in a bun, but her head was pinned with pheasant feathers and silver hairpins, although this woman's face was beautiful, but compared with the woman in the yellow shirt who came from the porch in the rain, it was dwarfed.

The yellow eel woman's name is Yun Tianzhi, and she is the eldest daughter of Yun Jinhe, the owner of Yunyin Mountain Villa. And the person who spoke just now was her personal big girl Ling Qiao. There is an unwritten rule in Yunyin Villa, that is, when all subordinates salute their masters, they do not call them official titles, but only call them the owner, young master, old lady, etc. Therefore, the maid did not call Yun Tianzhi the county lord, but only called the young lady.

Yun Tianzhi entered the wax moon this year, and his birthday is twenty years old. Yun Jinhe can be described as single-minded in his life, he only married a wife, and did not take a concubine. His wife, Jiang, died of illness when Yun Xuelan was not yet one year old, and Yun Jinhe never married. When the moon is full in the clouds, there was a Taoist who entered the Tiger Leaping Pass from the South Liang, wanted to go north, passed by the Yunyin Villa, heard that there was a full moon banquet in the village, and entered the village to have a look. After seeing the baby girl in swaddling clothes, he said a proverb to Yun Jinhe and his wife, saying that this girl's birthday is the twelfth day of the lunar month, and the time of her birth happens to coincide with the birth of the silkworm goddess who is also Christmas that day. When the couple heard this, they hurriedly leaned over and begged the immortal master for guidance. The Taoist priest said that he was a half-land immortal, and although he could occasionally glimpse the heavens, he could not tamper with the life of the world, and could only give the name of loving Tianzhi. With this name can be blinded by the silkworm goddess for twenty-five years, at the age of twenty-five, Yun Tianzhi will encounter a life, if you can spend it, then the second half of your life will be smooth and healthy, no disease, no disaster, no disaster, you can enjoy a long life, and have a good death. But at the age of twenty-five, this catastrophe is nine deaths. After that, the Taoist rode away with the wind. And since then, Yun Tianzhi has got this man-like name. And she has been smart since childhood, at the age of four she was literate and more than 10,000, at the age of eight she was proficient in the six ways of a gentleman and a man who was romantic, and at the age of thirteen she used the pseudonym of "Ying Timid" to write articles and the world's Confucian speculation. Now she is on the way to cultivating martial arts, and she can also vaguely glimpse the door of the martial realm.

Seeing that Yun Tianzhi was walking directly in the rain, the maid hurriedly got up anxiously, and while walking towards the latter, she took off her coat and made a gesture to protect her young lady from the rain. Yun Tianzhi didn't wait for the maid to continue to speak, he waved his hand to stop it, and continued to walk towards the courtyard, while saying, "Father made an appointment with us before leaving, and he will return to the village before today's Shen Shi, although it rains heavily today, and the road is muddy and difficult to walk, but the people who went with my father and Lan'er are all masters above the Zhongwu realm, and they have returned to the Yunyin realm, there is no need to cover it up, you can abandon the horse and return on foot, and you should come back with a few skills." But now it's nearly three o'clock in the hour, and if they enter the Cloud Hidden Realm, the spies should come back to report when they see them. I'll go to the front yard and ask them to send someone out to pick it up. ”

"Miss, my uncle has already sent someone. Ling Qiao said while catching up with Yun Tianzhi, who had already stepped out of the hospital, and did not forget to put the coat on the latter.

"Brother Chen is back?" Yun Tianzhi paused when he heard this, and asked sideways.

"My uncle also came back less than a cup of tea, because he learned that the owner of the village and the young owner had not come back, so he sent someone out to look for it, so he didn't come to Miss. Ling Qiao saw Yun Tianzhi mention the uncle in her mouth, and a trace of brilliance flashed on her face wet with rain.

Yun Tianzhi hummed lightly when he heard this, and didn't seem to notice the strange color in the maid's eyes, and continued to walk forward. The two of them crossed several inky cobblestone paths, and rounded several corridors, to the ferry port of Shangxian Lake, where they got into a small boat that had long been moored there, and the family rowed to the opposite shore.

The two of them came to a side hall where the villa often discussed, and the master and servant entered the hall one after another, and the fire in the hall baked away the cold of the rainy night. In the hall, near the main seat, sat a young man, dressed in a black shirt, the hem of his shirt was still stained with water, obviously coming from the dust and dust, and had not yet changed his clothes. The young man had a fair face, eyes like a bright moon, and his hair was tied with a black band. At this moment, the young man was holding a bowl of ginger tea. Seeing the second daughter who came in, he put down the teacup, got up and greeted him, "Zhi'er, why are you here, it's raining so hard, why don't you know how to hold an umbrella?" At this time, the rest of the people in the room also stood up and saluted Yun Tianzhi.

When Yun Tianzhi saw the young man in front of him, his frowning brows finally stretched slightly. She stared at the young man softly, letting the other party wipe the rain from her long hair and cheeks. "Brother Chen, have you had a smooth journey, have you encountered any dangers?" Yun Tianzhi asked softly. The young man's name is Song Jichen, and he is the child that Yun Jinhe picked up when he went out on a trip. He was only six years old when he was carried back to the villa, and he had not spoken a word since he entered the lodge, and when he saw that everyone was hostile, he would scratch and bite anyone who approached him. Only Yun Tianzhi, who was only five years old at the time, and Mrs. Yun, who was pregnant, could get close to him. When he stayed with the girl, although he still didn't say a word, there was no longer a fierce look in his eyes. Mrs. Yun felt sorry for him as an orphan of her husband's old friend, so she and Yun Jinhe accepted him as a righteous son. Song Jichen has been accompanying Yun Tianzhi to study and practice martial arts, the two childhood sweethearts, cardamom girls and handsome young people love each other tacitly after the first love, Yun Jinhe promised the marriage of the two when his daughter was seventeen years old. Because both of them are their own children, they don't have too much red tape, but when it comes to the wedding, Yun Jinhe will not wronged his children. It's just that the wedding date is set after Song Jichen and the crown, that is, after the Mid-Autumn Festival next year.

Song Jichen held the woman's somewhat cold hand and said: "A month ago, my father-in-law received a secret letter, and the person who wrote the letter claimed that my stepmother did not die of illness, but someone poisoned her, and described the symptoms of my stepmother's lingering illness one by one. At that time, you and I were too young to remember these things, but my father-in-law said that the details described in the letter were exactly the same as my mother's illness. The person who wrote the letter said that the murderer of the stepmother was the person from Nanliang Dauchi, and that there were clues about the murderer in the caravan that had finished doing business in Daxia and returned to Nanliang through Yunyin City. The father-in-law originally wanted to personally lead people to follow the wounded team to Nanliang to investigate. The day before leaving, the villa suddenly received a second secret letter, the person who wrote the letter said that there was a way to cure Lan'er's natural disease, and if it was treated according to this method, Lan'er's stubborn disease could not only be recovered and cured, but also be able to break through the shackles in the future and transcend the shackles of the Xuanwu realm. You know, Lan'er has never been loved by her stepmother since she was a child, and her stepfather has always felt indebted to Lan'er. I love him even more. Although Lan'er has outstanding cultivation talents, his physique is actually not suitable for cultivation. Since he was born, his meridians have given birth to vine silks, although these things can absorb the Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi faster, making the host cultivator extremely fast. But every time Lan'er breaks through a realm, these vines will grow and pierce the meridians, making Lan'er's life worse than death. This is also the reason why, after Lan'er reached the Heavenly Milk Realm at the age of ten, his father-in-law and Mr. Zhongli would never allow him to cultivate further. Over the years, the whole village has also tried its best to search for famous doctors everywhere to treat Lan'er, but it is still fruitless. Although you and I are obsessed with how old Lan'er is, we can be regarded as watching Lan'er grow up. We all know very well that his dedication to martial arts cultivation is not so much that he is obsessed with martial arts training, but that he is unwilling to be born with a pulse disease. Although on the surface, the whole Zhuang knew that his father-in-law forbade him to continue to join forces, but you and I also knew that this kid had been secretly cultivating behind our backs, and not only that, but he also cultivated the liver and intestine fragmentation created by the ancestor of Ziya. Now that my father-in-law learned that someone had a cure for Lan'er's stubborn illness, he was eager to save his son, knowing that something was wrong, but he still arranged for me to track down the whereabouts of the caravan, and he himself took Lan'er and a few mountain villa guards and secret guards to go to the appointment for consultation. At that time, you were at a critical juncture to break through the retreat, so naturally you could not be alarmed. And the two things that my father-in-law and I want to do are also very important, even if the cronies of the villa are rarely known, if you leave a letter note, if it is known by the eyes and ears of other forces in the villa, there will definitely be more trouble. So, my father-in-law asked Lan'er's Deadpool Rin Tan to stay behind to inform you of our outing. At that time, according to the information in the second letter, the father-in-law roughly judged that he would return to the villa today. And I followed the Nanliang caravan all the way out of the Tiger Leaping Pass, through the Killing Immortal Gorge, all the way to the territory of Nanliang Tianmu County, and the caravan suddenly disappeared. We scattered out to search, but after all, there were not many people on this trip, and in the territory of Nanliang, we did not dare to search in a big way, after the search was almost fruitless, I estimated that the return of the father-in-law and their return was in these few days, so half of the men were left to continue to search for the traces of the caravan in Nanliang, and I took people to rush back first. I thought all the way, these two letters were very coincidental and strange. It seems that the person who wrote the letter knew everything about our villa, and I even doubted that the person who wrote the letter could be the same group of people who led me and my stepfather out of the lodge while you were in retreat, and I thought that they would be bad for you and the lodge, and I was relieved to know that you were safe and sound when I came back. But now the father-in-law did not return at the appointed time, for fear that something would happen on the way. ”

After Yun Tianzhi listened to Song Jichen tell the whole story, his brows tightened and he was pondering something without saying a word. Seeing this, Song Jichen hurriedly said "bah", "Zhi'er, look at my stupid mouth, I haven't been able to speak since I was a child, my father-in-law is a master of the Soul Realm, not to mention the territory of Great Xia, even if there are rivers and lakes in the world, there are a few people who can make my father-in-law encounter accidents." These people are all hidden behind the scenes of various dynasties or wealthy lords, how can they easily appear in the world. It must have been because of the recent rain and the difficulty of the mountain road that delayed the trip. I've already sent someone to pick them up along the way, so don't worry. ”

Yun Tianzhi was about to speak, but a villa attendant hurriedly ran in from outside, and he didn't care about giving a salute and said, "Miss, eldest young master, I'm back, I'm back." ”

When Yun Tianzhi heard this, he hurriedly turned around and asked, "Is my father back?"

"It's Rin Tan who came back with the young owner on his back, the young owner was seriously injured and unconscious, and the rest of the villa were"

"What about the rest of the villa, and how about my father-in-law?"

"The five guards who followed the owner out and all the secret guards, as well as the owner, all survived. ”
