Chapter XXVI Causes

Qi Chu closed his eyes and said slowly: "I was also extremely shocked when I saw this note a month ago, but if the little junior sister is still alive, then why don't you come out to see me?"

Xu Jinyu asked, "Who is the person who sent the note?"

Qi Chu said: "I don't know, Lan Ting said that he was cooking in the kitchen, and this note floated in front of his eyes." Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info”

Xu Jinyu said: "The martial arts of the person who sent the note must be very high, and there are not many people in the world who can go freely under your eyes." ”

Qi Chu said: "Back then, the little junior sister died in my hands, and I watched her die. So, I thought it was someone else's prank, but later Lan Ting received the blue and white jade hairpin that the little sister wore back then. ”

"How is this possible? Isn't the blue and white jade hairpin already lost?"

"That's what the little sister said back then, but when it reappeared, I really couldn't help but believe that she was still alive. Qi Chu said

Xu Jinyu understood that it was always good to have hope in Qi Chu's heart, so that he would not have to suffer so much.

"So, you married Shu Lingxue. But how could a woman like Shu Lingxue marry you so easily?"

Qi Chu whispered in her ear, and Xu Jinyu scolded with a smile: "You scoundrel!"

Qi Chu said: "At that time, I was also forced to be helpless, I thought that if I married her, the person who delivered the letter would send the news again." But on the night of the wedding, Shu Lingxue fled. He showed Xu Jinyu the note left by Shu Lingxue.

Xu Jinyu said: "It seems that this Shu Lingxue is specially here to treat you." So this time I came to Yangzhou to find Shu Lingxue?" was slightly disappointed in his heart, he didn't come to Yangzhou for ten years, and this time he came for other women.

Qi Chu said: "It's not all. "The last time I treated Lan Ting's injury, Qi Chu told about Sheling. This time, he told her about the disappearance of Yang Xing's young son.

Xu Jinyu said: "During the day, the village girl in Daming Temple also said that the child was missing, and these three disappearances are really similar." ”

Qi Chu said: "I'm afraid it was the same person." ”

Xu Jinyu said: "But what clues are there?"

Qi Chu pondered: "After Shu Lingxue left on the night of the wedding, Lan Ting and I followed the traces left by her on the road, but the traces disappeared outside the nameless town. ”

Xu Jinyu said: "So you entered the nameless town"

Qi Chu then carefully recounted what happened in the town.

Xu Jinyu said: "I guess Xu San Old Ghost and Sheling are not in the same group, otherwise how could they split into two to kill you." ”

Qi Chu said: "It makes sense. So who will be the person who sent the note?"

Xu Jinyu said: "It's hard to say. ”

Qi Chu said: "I came to Yangzhou this time to open the coffin for an autopsy to see if the little junior sister is really alive." ”

Xu Jinyu didn't speak when she heard it, and she didn't know what her mood was, because of her own mistakes, she indirectly killed her little sister. If the little junior sister was still alive, there would be no more guilt in her heart. But if the little junior sister is really alive, Qi Chu will be with her in order to compensate her. The little hope he had left was gone. Maybe people are selfish, at this moment Xu Jinyu doesn't want the little junior sister to come back to life, even if he can't be with Qi Chu now, but as long as he looks at him from afar.

At this time, Qi Chu thought to himself: If the coffin is opened tomorrow and the body is found, then it proves that the little junior sister is still alive, but why didn't she come to see her? How did the person who sent the news know that the little junior sister was still alive? If the corpse is still there, what is the ultimate purpose of this person's painstaking efforts to make up a lie?

Only tomorrow will know, and he slowly walked towards Lan Ting's room.

The world was silent, and Xu Jinyu said quietly: "Qi Chu, Qi Chu, I'd rather never see you than hear the news you brought today, how should I stay up tonight?"

Lan Ting lay comfortably on the bed, and Qi Chu pushed the door in.

"Childe, have you eaten?"

"Nope. Qi Chu smiled

"Then I'll do it for you, do you still want to eat noodles?" he jumped out of bed and rushed out in a hurry, in his heart he couldn't let Childe go hungry.

Qi Chu pulled Lan Ting back, "I won't eat tonight." ”

Lan Ting looked at Qi Chu, and always felt that he had lost weight after not seeing his son for two days, "People are iron rice and steel, and if you don't eat a meal, you will be hungry and panic." Eat something anyway. ”

Qi Chu sat down, "You have done a lot of work with me in the past few days, and you have suffered a lot of dangers. ”

"Childe, don't be so polite, this is what I should do. After all, with such a high salary, the service must be in place. He smiled, a little embarrassed. He really doesn't know anything other than doing chores and cooking. I didn't expect Childe to care so much about himself, and he was very happy in his heart.

Qi Chu said: "In the future, you will do less of these things." ”

"Ah, Childe, did I do anything wrong, if I don't do well, you can tell me. Lan Ting was terrified, "I feel uncomfortable when you say that. ”

"Get on your knees"

Lan Ting knelt on the ground with an ordinary sound, there were tears in his eyes, not because he was wronged, but because he hated what he did badly, which made Childe angry. In his heart, in addition to his father, the son is the most important. He himself is in third place.

Qi Chu said: "You kowtow three times to the north. ”

The north-facing window in the house was open, Lan Ting didn't dare to disobey, and knocked three times heavily, he felt sad so he worked hard, and his forehead was red. I blamed myself in my heart: I must have done something wrong to make my son angry. Thinking of last night's Shering saying about the son's acceptance of apprentices, his nose was sour for no reason. He was two years younger than Yang Yixiao, and tears flowed down his face.

"Look at what you've become, how old you are and crying. Qi Chu was slightly angry, the child kneeling in front of him would be the future heir of Linglang Pavilion. So, from this moment on, he was more demanding.

Lan Ting wiped his tears with his sleeve and listened to Qi Chu say, "From today onwards, you are not allowed to cry again, you know?"

"Hmm," he replied heavily

"Kowtow to me three more times. Qi Chu showed a kind gaze again, he liked Lan Ting, and he liked it in his heart.

Lan Ting didn't know why, but what Childe asked him to do, even if he died, he would do it. After kowtowing, he suddenly felt a little weak, but he insisted on kneeling on the ground.

Qi Chu said, "Do you want to hear about my past?"

Maybe it's because I have to know if the little sister is still alive tomorrow, so I can't sleep tonight. He always wanted to find someone to talk to, except for Xu Jinyu, he only trusted Lan Ting.

"Think" Lan Ting used to know the legends of Childe from other people's mouths, and now Childe wants to tell it to himself, of course he is happy.

Qi Chu didn't let him stand up, and turned his head to look at the north, as if he had returned to the past.

"I worship under the door of Linglang Pavilion, and the master's name is Xu Daofo, who is known as the god of gods. When he was thirty years old, he was already invincible in the rivers and lakes, and he could be said to be the first in the world. In the winter of that year, Master picked me up. Master said that I was an orphan and was abandoned in the mountains and forests. It was so cold that winter that he was afraid that I would freeze to death, so he saved me. Master had four apprentices, and I was the third. The senior brother is your father, and later known as Yan Han of Zhanyunfei. ”

Lan Ting heard his father's name, and he was even more focused. Thinking that Childe turned out to be an orphan, he thought of his own life experience. It turns out that he is quite happy, at least he has a father.

"My senior sister is Xu Jinyu, the owner of today's Splendid Workshop, and the little junior sister's name is Su Qianli. Master said that the fate of the four of us is very similar because we are all orphans. It seemed that from that moment on, the lives of the four of us were connected. Your father is a few years older than me and takes very good care of me. When I was young, I was naughty and picked up eggs, and he always carried it for me when I got into trouble. Therefore, he is often punished by the master. He is a righteous man and always sticks a knife in his friend's ribs. When he said this, his eyes couldn't help but light up, as if he thought of something. There are too many passionate and exciting stories between him and Yan Han, and I am afraid that I can't finish them in three days and three nights.

Lan Ting asked curiously, "Is it true that those people in the inn two days ago said that my father quietly escaped from the emperor's million-strong army?"

Qi Chu said: "It's true, speaking of which, the current emperor is the same age as your father." Legend has it that he was made crown prince at the age of six and ascended to the throne at the age of ten. Don't underestimate this ten-year-old child, he deserves to be called a young genius, with great ambitions and supreme power. In the year when he ascended the throne, two of the three ministers who took care of his life were killed by him, and the remaining one could only be obedient. ”

Qi Chu spoke lightly, but Lan Ting listened to it with enthusiasm, he heard about the emperor's past for the first time, and thought in his heart: A ten-year-old child can play with three treacherous and cunning ministers between applause, his city is deep, and his wisdom is high, I am afraid that no one in the world can compare.

Lan Ting asked, "This emperor is so powerful, why did he arrest my father?"

Qi Chu said: "Maybe for a person like him, money and power can no longer satisfy his desires." Only peerless martial arts can make him tempted. Back then, your father was very famous, and there were many legends in the rivers and lakes, and the eight changes of the dragon god were exquisite. The Emperor must have changed his mind about the Dragon God Eight. That year was supposed to be the second year after he became in power, no one would have thought that as the king of a country, he would use a million army to arrest your father. ”

"Is the Phantom Sea Storm also an illusion-like song?" Lan Ting asked

"Illusion is mostly to create illusions, and the Illusory Sea Storm is to make people hallucinate through the rhythm of music, if the power of the two is comparable, but the Illusory Sea Storm is really a song, so anyone can learn it. ”

Lan Ting asked, "Can Childe teach me?" Xin Dao: This song can help Daddy get out of the golden cicada from the army, I must learn it.

Qi Chu smiled: "If you really want to learn, of course I can teach you." But don't you want to learn more powerful martial arts?"

"Is there anything more powerful?" Lan Ting really couldn't imagine that Childe was willing to teach him martial arts.

Qi Chu said with a smile: "You just kowtowed to the north to worship the ancestor, and you kowtowed to me three times and became my apprentice." "When Yang Yixiao apprenticed to his master, he didn't salute his ancestor, because Qi Chu just accepted him as an apprentice. But today, he wants to pass on Linglang Pavilion to Lan Ting.

"I became Childe's apprentice?" Lan Ting dared to believe it?

"Childe, you're not kidding, are you?"

"What's the matter?" Qi Chu said with a smile

"Uh...... No repentance, no repentance. Lan Ting kowtowed more than a dozen times in a row.

"What are you doing?" Qi Chu asked with a smile

"I'm so happy, I can't express it, I can only kowtow, hehe. ”

Qi Chu helped Lan Ting up, "Sit down, your injuries are not all healed, don't be tired." ”

Lan Ting obediently sat next to Qi Chu, poured a cup of tea, and said, "Master drink tea." ”

Qi Chu took it with a smile: "You are really good at sycophancy." He was happy in his heart, from now on, he would not only pass on the merits of the Elephant Emperor to Lan Ting, but also give this child the best things in the world.

"It's all taught well by the master, hehe. Lanting scratched her head

"It's not big, it's not small, it's looking for a fight. Qi Chu flicked Lan Ting's forehead lightly, how could he bear to hit him.

Lan Ting smiled: "Is Master going to pass on my martial arts next?" Qi Chu's martial arts he had seen, he once had a dream, it would be great if he could have such a high level of martial arts! Now that the dream has become a reality, Lan Ting kept telling himself to work hard.

Qi Chu said: "Martial arts practice is not an overnight thing, before that, I will tell you a story." ”

"Well, I like to listen to stories the most. Lan Ting laughed
