Back to Tingyuxuan, Xie Gongbao sat on the roof all day, sometimes contemplative, not knowing what he was thinking? Sometimes he looked south, not knowing what he was looking at? Zhu Ji and Emperor Privet called him, and he just responded casually, and the whole person was depressed and had no spirit. ——Until the sunset slowed down, remembering that yesterday's banquet was also so intoxicating, he suddenly stood up, looked south, and came to the spirit.

He thought that no matter what the patriarch became, he would be his dearest relative after all.

Before interviewing the patriarch, Xie Gongbao felt that he should not listen to the wind or rain.

At the very least, we should meet the patriarch again and listen to her explanation.

Thinking about this section, he jumped off the roof, poured two bowls of rice first, waited until it was dark, said goodbye to Zhu Ji and the imperial virgin, and hurried out by himself, threw himself into the south city and came to Qiao's mansion, and then jumped into the courtyard wall and ran to the right wing. - There are still no soldiers in the right wing, the attic is quite brightly lit, and there are occasional maids entering and leaving.

Xie Gongbao jumped up to the attic in the dark and climbed through the window into the second floor.

However, the room he entered burned incense and lit candles, and it turned out to be an ancestral hall.

The ancestral hall is full of spirit cards, take a closer look, and be stunned on the spot.

It turns out that none of the spiritual tablets enshrined here have names.

However, this ancestral hall is very similar to the ancestral hall of the ancestral temple of the Haoxian clan back then, from the spirit tablets, tables and chairs, incense burners, and even futons are almost identical. Xie Gongbao concluded that these nameless spirit cards corresponded to the patriarchs and immortal masters of his Haoxian clan, and from the layout of the ancestral hall, it can be seen that Nie Xiaoqiao's mind is enough, and it is enough to prove that Nie Xiaoqiao has not forgotten his roots and has not forgotten him.

When he was a child, he had too many memories in the ancestral hall of the Jongmyo Temple.

At this time, it is really intimate to revisit the place as if it were the same.

While they were remembering, two maids pushed the door in.

Xie Gongbao didn't have time to think about it, jumped on the beam of the house, and hid.

I saw the two maids carrying bamboo baskets, and there were words on their lips:

"Madame has returned from the palace, and hastened to change the incense and candles. ”

"You go change it, I'll wipe down the table and chairs. ”

"Move quickly, and give the lady a bath with water." ”

The two maids moved quite quickly, and after two perfunctory strokes, they left. After the two of them were ready to leave, Xie Gongbao jumped down from the beam, and heard someone downstairs shouting the word "madam", he hurriedly pushed open the window and looked down, and sure enough, he saw Nie Xiaoqiao stepping into the door. His nerves tightened, his heart pounded, and then he lay down at the door and listened.

When he heard footsteps going upstairs, he couldn't help but feel ecstasy.

Feeling the sound of footsteps stepping on the door, Xie Gongbao hurriedly flashed to the side.

I heard a creak, the door opened, and it was Nie Xiaoqiao who came in.

Xie Gongbao couldn't hold back his excitement and shouted softly: "Patriarch." ”

Nie Xiaoqiao's body shook for a moment, did not look back, and then calmly closed the door, and said while offering incense: "What patriarch is not the patriarch, I am Mrs. Qiao, I said that I don't want to see you, you dare to come uninvited, and break in at night! ”

Seeing that she still refused to admit it, Xie Gongbao had the courage to step forward and face her:

"You look the same as before, Gong Bao won't be mistaken. ”

Nie Xiaoqiao closed his eyes tightly and didn't look at him, and said lightly: "People are similar, don't you understand this truth?"

"Okay, you said that people are similar, I won't refute you. Xie Gongbaohuan pointed to the ancestral hall and said bitterly: "Then how do you explain this ancestral hall? Except for the spirit tablet that is enshrined and has no name, the others are exactly the same as the ancestral hall of the ancestral temple in our clan." Patriarch, what has happened to you over the years, why don't you recognize Gong Bao? Do you know that Sister Xian'er is still alive, she is still alive, don't you even recognize her?"

Nie Xiaoqiao twisted his head, not knowing whether he was sad or crying?

She walked to the window, turned her back to Xie Gongbao, and said for a while:

"You want to see me too, it's time to go. ”

"Gong Bao is not leaving. Xie Gongbao was excited, and the stubbornness of his childhood resurfaced: "I heard some messages that said...... Say...... , In short, I don't believe it, Gong Bao believes that you must have something unspeakable, otherwise our clan ancestral hall would not appear in a foreign land. Patriarch, tell Gong Bao, why don't you run away? What do you have to hide? As long as you say it, Gong Bao will definitely be able to help you. ”

Nie Xiaoqiao didn't answer, but turned around and walked to the door sadly.

Then he stopped at the door, sighed lightly, and led the door out.

"Patriarch!" Xie Gongbao opened the door and followed.

At this moment, the thin dragon and fat tiger rushed forward from the entrance of the corridor and stopped him. Xie Gongbao couldn't break free, but he didn't dare to be brutal, watching Nie Xiaoqiao go downstairs and walk away, he hurriedly said: "What are you two stopping me from!

The thin dragon and fat tiger looked at each other and smiled bitterly and embarrassedly.

The fat tiger's eyes rolled, and he said to Xie Gongbao: "Some words can't be said nonsense, my Yan Yu clan's immortal roots have been broken early, how can anyone still learn the "Mirror Moon Returning Light Technique", if you let others hear this big word, won't it cause death." ”

Speaking of this, he looked sneakily left and right, lowered his voice and said: "White Dragon Envoy, I advise you to think about it calmly, sometimes you have to find someone, this person hides from you, maybe it is because she is worried about bringing you trouble, or she has someone to protect, who is being coerced, and does not want you to be involved." Hehe, Madame made us not talk to you more, and I only dare to talk about it here, and you will consider the rest slowly after you go back. ”

Xie Gongbao is not stupid, as soon as he heard it, he knew that this was a bit of a distraction.

He thought for a moment and asked, "You mean Qu Chi wants to blackmail the patriarch?"

Fat Tiger kissed his fingers and said noly: "Shh, I didn't say anything, you better go home, when do you think things through and get things done, I promise you can see whoever you want." He spoke in a secretive manner, with a voice in every word, but he was afraid that people would not understand him, so he spoke clearly.

Xie Gongbao hooked his head to meditate and said, "I understand." ”

Fat Tiger smiled with satisfaction, and pointed to the dark place outside the window: "Go back, you can go how you came, don't alarm the government soldiers in my house." ”

Xie Gongbao didn't speak, just looked around at the ancestral hall.

Then, taking a deep breath, he jumped out of the window.

After Xie Gongbao left, the thin dragon closed the window and said:

"Tiger, the patriarch is not allowed to tell him the facts, how can you knowingly commit a crime?"

"The patriarch was only worried about the immortal root being cut off, and she didn't think about what the point of keeping an immortal root if all my clan died. Do you think, Qu Chi locked up my people in Black Tiger Mountain, how many times have we planned to rescue them in the past few years, and which one has it been successful? I feel that the appearance of Gong Bao may be the will of heaven. ”

"Black Tiger Mountain is heavily guarded, and if you do this, it will be tantamount to harming him. ”

"Don't forget what Yongmu said when he found the patriarch last time, he said that Gong Bao Meng Bai Jiwen has already been promoted to mixed yuan, he is well versed in the method of dual cultivation of qi and spirit, and what is a black tiger mountain. Don't worry about it, listen to me, let's not do this for ourselves, to put it bluntly, it's also for the sake of the patriarch, you don't know, she doesn't know how happy she is to find Gong Bao. ”
