Two hundred and fifteen letters in the inn

Hiding in the dense artemisia grass, Wu Zheng, who felt that he was already safe, did not have the heart to return to the mountain city again. He didn't believe that Duanmu Yuntian and Xiang Fei would give up and continue to stay outside Linshan City after the defeat. Perhaps it will be after the news of his ouster comes back that the two are likely to leave.

So, taking advantage of the darkness, he continued to travel some distance north, and then turned southwest. By the time Wu Zheng stepped on the official road again, the sky had already brightened, and it was one or two hundred miles away from Linshan City.

There is no need to worry about the east end of Xichu catching up, and when passing by a post station, he wrote a letter to Wu Gang. The content is extremely simple, but he said that he was very safe, and he had other important things to deal with at present, and he couldn't return to the mountain city for the time being. instructed Wu Gang to be careful of the attacks of martial arts people, and take care of Grandpa Luo Xudong and others at home.

As for whether Wu Gang and Zhen Yu'er had seen the Daoist people and Yun Lan of the Heavenly Dao Gate, Wu Zheng did not ask again. Even if he asked, Wu Gang had no way to inform himself.

Wu Zheng only briefly mentioned the matter of being deposed by the imperial court and deposing the Yin of Linshan Mansion, just to let Wu Gang know in his heart. Nothing else was discussed.

In the end, I didn't forget to advise: If you encounter difficulties, find a way to find a way to solve it with Lord Ning, the governor of the Eight Mansions.

Four days later, Wu Zheng had already come to the boundary of Cangzhou Mansion.

Sure enough, the Yun family of the four major families of martial arts was very easy to inquire, and casually asked a passer-by, and found out that the Yun family was in Canghe County, Cangzhou Prefecture, and it was the most powerful family in the county.

came to Canghe County to find the Yun family, but couldn't think of a suitable excuse to get in and inquire about the deaf and dumb news. just walked around the huge wall of the Yun family's mansion, and casually inquired about a few passers-by, but got an answer that surprised Wu Zheng.

"Deaf and dumb, he was expelled from the Yun family thirty years ago, why did the little brother still come here to inquire?"

Thirty years ago, wasn't this the time when Huatoutuo in the Western Regions was injured by a deaf and dumb beating, and Wu Gan took the opportunity to enter?

As for why the deaf and dumb people were expelled from the family, Wu Zheng didn't hear about it.

Anyway, finding the deaf and dumb is not Wu Zheng's top priority, since the two of them have left Woyun Temple, they will definitely walk in the rivers and lakes, and sooner or later they will get news of them. Therefore, Wu Zheng did not pause and went straight to the next stop, Hejian Mansion.

I knew in my heart that it was not an overnight thing to find the lair of the Dark God Organization, or to inquire about Wu Jizong's foreign family, as well as Wu Jizong's experience after returning when he was a teenager, Wu Zheng thought to himself, it was better to find the bones of his father Wu Lipeng first.

According to the address of Wu Youren's confession in Linshan Mansion: at the foot of Qijiaji South Mountain, forty miles west of Jingpo County, Hejian Prefecture, on the evening of the twelfth day after leaving Linshan Mansion, Wu Zheng came to Qijiaji.

It's a medium-sized town, not bustling, and because it's the middle of winter, it seems to be a little sluggish.

The town is long from north to south and narrow from east to west, and it has been walked back and forth, only the northeast corner and the southwest corner of the crossroads in the center of the town, which happen to be diagonally opposite the two inns. Wu Zheng casually chose the northeast corner, and lived in the inn with the words "Kelai'an" in front of the door.

The inn was opened by a middle-aged couple who were not more than forty years old, and according to their age, if the couple had been running this inn here, they might have remembered what happened more than nine years ago. Therefore, Wu Zheng chatted with the husband and wife after dinner.

When Wu Zheng asked them how long they had been running the inn, the middle-aged man said that he had just taken over for more than half a year, less than seven months. And the two of them are not Qi family Jiren, but Fu family Jiren thirty miles east from here. Disappointed, Wu Zheng was about to turn around and leave, but he heard the shopkeeper ask:

"Listening to the accent, the guest officer is not a local?"

"Yes, it's from Linshanfu. ”

"Linshan Mansion, do you know that there is a Yi County under Linshan Mansion?"

"Of course, I'm from Yi County. ”

Hearing this, Wu Zheng's heart moved, and he couldn't help but stand up again.

"So the guest officer's surname is Wu?"

Wu Zheng was even more surprised, and hurriedly said:

"The surname is Wu Mingzheng. ”

Seeing that the shopkeeper heard his name report, he turned his face and glanced at his wife, and then his wife took out a small envelope from under the counter and handed it to Wu Zheng.

Before receiving it, Wu Zheng had already seen the handwriting on it. It's just that the word "Wu Zheng" is simply written, and the handwriting looks like Wu Gan's handwriting.

Without opening the envelope in a hurry, Wu Zheng first inquired about the husband and wife:

"Who and when did this stay?"

"When we just took over the inn half a year ago, an old man who was close to the sixtieth birthday did not leave his name, but only said that if there was a young descendant named Wu Zheng from Yi County, Linshan Prefecture in the future, I would transfer this letter to him. ”

is approaching the sixtieth year, and Wu Gan is indeed close to the sixtieth year.

"Thank you, auntie, uncle. ”

After Wu Zheng said politely, he returned to the room with the thin envelope in his hand before opening it. It is true that Wu Gan's handwriting is true, but the tone is more like Wu Jizong. There is no stage, and the first sentence is:

"I know that there will always be a **** who will find here, but I don't know when it will be. Still, I hope you will see this letter. ”

Obviously, after Wu Jizong was rescued by Wu Gan from the dark hole under the Water Snake Bay, the two rushed here as soon as possible, so Wu Jizong dictated that Wu Gan wrote this letter for himself.

"Although you are not a descendant of the Wu family, it cannot be denied that you grew up drinking the water of the Wu family. There is no hatred between us, no matter how you say it, you are not Wu Lipeng's biological flesh and blood after all. What's more, Wu Lipeng's death was just an accident. And it was he who caused trouble first and wanted to spoil our big thing, which forced us to take action. ”

For Wu Jizong's instigation, Wu Zheng will not be fooled at all. Wu Lipeng is indeed not his biological father, but since he was a child, both his father Wu Lipeng and his grandmother have regarded themselves as their own, and even more closer. Therefore, in the years since he learned about his life, Wu Zheng has never regarded Wu Lipeng as his adoptive father in his heart.

"Maybe you will feel uncomfortable watching this, if you know that the cause of your mother's death is related to Wu Lipeng, do you still think that your adoptive father Wu Lipeng is better than your biological father Xiao Ying?"

This, Wu Zheng couldn't sit still anymore.

How did Wu Jizong know the cause of his mother's death, and also said that his father Wu Lipeng was related to the cause of his mother's death. Although the meaning of this sentence is not equivalent to that his father Wu Lipeng is the main cause of his mother's death, it also makes Wu Zheng feel frightened.

"If you can let go of the hatred in your heart for us because of Wu Lipeng's death, and let go of all the unpleasantness in the past, we are willing to make appropriate compensation for the incident that sank you in the pond last time. Whether it's wealth or power, it can basically satisfy you.

If I'm not mistaken, if you can come to Qi Jiaji and see this letter, you must have been dismissed by the imperial court. So, we do have a lot of room to work together. (To be continued.) )
