Chapter 13 The Mysterious Ancestor
Palace Master Mu chuckled: "As long as the body is not dead, the power of the soul will be endless, and it should be endless. If the elixir condensed by the power of the soul is taken out, I am afraid that it will not hurt the body of the fox fairy. Bar?"
"Hmph, you've become smarter." Lili glanced at Palace Master Mu, "Indeed, this fox fairy has high spiritual power, and my spiritual power is already more than enough to raise so many little guys. It’s a panacea, it’s so troublesome, and now I can’t even fit in Ruishan’s residence.”
Chu Xiaoye 囧: Can you be a little more reliable, is it true that the panacea is the same as defecation?
And didn't he just say he would die!Can you communicate in good faith!Give you a bad review!
It's really worrying.
"Since there are so many panacea, give me one!" Chu Xiaoye flattered, her expression changed very naturally, like a movie king.
"It's okay to give it to you, but..." Lili touched her chin, her eyes flashed, and her fox tail quickly shook a few times.
"What do you want to exchange?" Chu Xiaoye asked very well.
"Well, it was pretty good for you to help me kill the scum who murdered someone and blamed me. Unfortunately, I am not such a generous person. I can give you the panacea." Lili drank He sipped his tea, and then said, "But, you need to get the tears of the stone statue first, anyway, that old antique said you should also look for this."
"Why don't you just say, give me the elixir after I undo the God-binding curse." Chu Xiaoye looked resentfully.
"Well, after that old antique soul entered my body, he often talked to me. It was so noisy. I asked him why he was willing to leave. He said that after asking me to help you get the tear of the stone statue, his last The spirit will dissipate."
Lili spoke very slowly, staring at the steaming teacup on the table, her fox tail also drooped, wondering what she was thinking.
"Does the fox fairy have any clues about the tears of the stone statue?" Palace Master Mu asked.
"Yes, but it's more troublesome. I can't get it alone, so I came to you." Lili put down the teacup and stood up, straightening her snow-white robe. The tears of the statue are in the Yongfu Desert, I will come to you in a few days, and go with you to the desert to find the tears of the stone statue."
Then he took a lot of small spirit fires and prepared to leave.
"Wait a minute!" Chu Xiaoye hurriedly called to him, "I have one last question!"
"What?" The fox fairy was puzzled.
"Can I touch your tail! It looks very soft!" Chu Xiaoye looked expectant.
Palace Master Mu: "..."
Lili: "..."
Of course, in the end Lili was still very approachable, she groaned and stretched her tail over under the gaze of Palace Master Mu whose spiritual power was far superior to her own.
Chu Xiaoye kneaded and kneaded, and rubbed her cheeks. It felt really suitable for making a scarf. It must be super warm.
The fox fairy Lili went back to Ruishan's residence, sent the little spirit fires out to guard the hundred-turning spirit fire formation, and sat quietly in the room alone.
The room is not big, but it’s a bit empty for living alone. The decoration is simple and plain. There is a small round table in the center of the room, and a spirit fire lamp is on, and the room is full of dim light. behind.
"Old ghost, come out." After a long time, Lili finally spoke.
"Huh?" A calm male voice, with a bit of vicissitudes, lingered in Lili's ears, only he could hear it.
"Have you seen your little cat?"
"Hmm. It's as interesting as expected." The male voice was somewhat relieved.
Lili fell silent again.
"What are you thinking?" The male voice rarely asked.
"You got the tear of the stone statue, do you really want to leave?" Lili hesitated.
"It has guarded me for a long time, it's time to leave, the obsession is too deep, the only one suffering is itself."
Lili didn't speak. After a while, the male voice said again: "What's the matter? Don't want me to go?"
Unexpectedly, Lili didn't jump to refute.
"If I tell you not to go...will you stay?"
The male voice was silent for a while, as if he didn't expect this awkward fox fairy to be so straightforward.
"...It's getting late, let's rest first." The male voice spoke again, but did not answer Lili's words.
Lili suppressed the emotions in her heart and lay down quietly.
But it was dawn when he opened his eyes.
300 years is really too long.
Lili didn't lie, if she helped Chu's kitten obtain the tears of the stone statue...
Maybe he really will die.
Flash forward to the end of March, the vernal equinox, among the butterflies dreaming of flowers, the peach blossoms are in full bloom.
Jiuhuafeng's follow-up matters have also been dealt with, and everyone feels a little slack after the war. Chu Xiaoye is also happy and quiet, except for eating and sleeping every day, which is called rejuvenating energy.
That day, Riyuehen checked Chu Xiaoye's chest injury, Du Hongde's palm was quite heavy, and a little shocked his heart, but it will be fine if he cultivates for a while.
When Chu Xiaoye was in better health, everyone went back to Heping City first. The murder of the fox fairy had been solved, and Chu Xiaoye, who was supposed to be an imperial envoy, had to go to the Yamen again.
The Liu Taishou was not too surprised when he learned about the events of Jiuhuafeng that day, and he was still at ease when he saw the young master of the second year of junior high school.
Chu Xiaoye knew in her heart that this person had some affair with Du Hongde in secret, but because there was no evidence, Du Hongde was dead, and the four disciples who knew about it did not have the soul-absorbing evil door heart scripture and continued to practice, just like ordinary people who have lost their martial arts .
Under Chu Xiaoye's supervision, Liu Taishou also dealt with those people fairly, and comforted the dead in the sky.
What everyone didn't expect was that before the interrogation of the four major disciples, Taishou Liu took the initiative to say that he would resign and return to his hometown after the matter was over, and would no longer interfere with the affairs of the court. It was still too early to return home, and everyone was a little puzzled to just let go.
"Then what's going on with Prefect Liu? It's really strange." Chu Xiaoye said, chewing on her cabbage.
Palace Master Mu has been busy with him for quite a few days on this matter, and everyone in Starscar Palace is having some free time, sitting in a restaurant in Heping City for lunch.
"Look at Prefect Liu Lingpo, what's the problem?" Mu Yuntian asked as he helped him pick up some food.
"Hmm..." Chu Xiaoye swallowed a mouthful of food, "At first I saw him, I thought this person was quite clear, and he didn't seem to have a ghost in his heart, but later I also found out that he did have something to do with Du Hongde, the matter of the file room It is also true that he told Du Hongde that he knew about the fire in the yamen, but he has a clear conscience so far, if this is the case, then why did he resign?"
"Heh, grievances are reciprocated, human relationships are exchanged, things in this world are not so easy to understand." But the bicep protector rarely opened his mouth.
"Then what do you think?" Chu Xiaoye asked him.
"Since he has a clear conscience, it must be because he thinks what he did is right. Besides, he didn't really do anything harmful, so why bother holding on to it." Biceps opened his mouth and bit the chicken leg.
Palace Master Mu really looked thoughtful.
"What's wrong with you?" Seeing him lost in thought, Chu Xiaoye turned to look at him.
"It's nothing, maybe Liu Taishou is just forced to do things for some people, so there's no need to delve into it. When you recover from your injuries, we'll go find the stone statue's tears earlier." Mu Yuntian stretched out his hand to brush Chu Xiaoye's forehead hair habitually.
Chu Xiaoye thought he was talking about Du Hongde, but after thinking about it, she no longer struggled.
"Speaking of the tears of the stone statue, I have some news from my subordinates." Yuehen said.
"Hmm... tears of stone statues, tears of stone statues, how can you tell anything from just these four words, there are so many stone statues in the world, which one is it, and where did the tears come from..." Chu Xiaoye said to himself.
"Revelation Tianjun replied?" Palace Master Mu raised his eyebrows. A few days ago, he heard news from Fox Immortal, so he sent someone to send another letter to ask Tianjun Zixiao for details.
"Well, Tianjun said that the stone statue is like a stone dragon." Yuehen reached out and took out Tianjun's reply letter from his sleeve and handed it to Mu Yuntian. What did you say?"
Palace Master Mu took it and glanced at it. The letter was indeed only a few words, which shows that Lord Tian Tian didn't know the details.
Chu Xiaoye bit her chopsticks and stretched her head to look, and asked Mu Yuntian: "That unreliable fox fairy also said that he has some news, the fox fairy has a close relationship with that general, why is this stone dragon with him? Does it matter... By the way, who is this Chu Haolan?"
Chu Xiaoye was distressed, he didn't have any memories of the original Chu family's second young master in his mind, and he really didn't know anything except that Chu Haolan was the ancestor of the Chu family.
Both Yuehen and Xingyang looked at Chu Xiaoye speechlessly: How could they ask others about their ancestors...
"300 years ago, the Jinnuo Kingdom was just a small city-state, which is now the Jinnuo King City. The Li family, the owner of the Jinnuo City, wanted to establish themselves as kings, so they sent troops to conquer other countries. At that time, Chu Haolan was already Luo Wen. Chu Haolan is a well-known young prophet in all countries in the mainland, and the rumors of the eye of the soul also started from Chu Haolan. According to historical records, Chu Haolan predicted that it would be unstoppable for the lord of Jin Nuo to become king and emperor, so he voluntarily joined Jin Nuo Li Under his command, he will become his capable general."
Palace Master Mu spoke eloquently, while Chu Xiaoye was also biting her chopsticks and listening intently.
"Then he died on the battlefield?" Did the plot progress a little fast?
Chu Xiaoye was puzzled, if he was a prophet, how could he have died so inexplicably, and he seemed to be very young when he died.
Yue Hen glanced at his palace lord, saw that he didn't stop him, so he said: "The reason why Chu Haolan is called a god general is because it is rumored that he is invincible in all battles, but in the end Chu Haolan was the one who won all battles." In the dead Yongfu Desert, that is, the Yongfu Kingdom that was conquered 30 years ago, the current Yongfu City. In the past 300 years, the Jinnuo royal family never wanted to conquer the Yongfu Kingdom. It is taboo to come here, there have always been rumors that the country that the god general Chu Haolan failed to take down must have its own reason for standing."
"Yongfu country is full of deserts? What's the point of conquering a desert?" Chu Xiaoye was even more puzzled, feeling that the affairs of Jinnuo country were like a thick fog, and it was impossible to see clearly.
Besides, I have heard before that the Jinnuo royal family sacrificed tens of millions of soldiers in order to gnaw on this hard bone. What's the point of spending such a high price to win a desert where no birds shit.
"Who knows what's going on in Jinnuo's mind." Xingyang didn't take it seriously, but the fool was straightforward.
"Furthermore, the cause of Chu Haolan's death should not be that simple. I have also read many unofficial histories, and they all say that Chu Haolan was killed by the Jinnuoli royal family..." The biceps protector chewed on the pig's trotters. La la authentic.
"Shut up." Palace Master Mu said lightly, and glanced at Xingyang, the bicep protector almost lost his grip on the pig's trotters, "I know it's wild history, so you can't believe it, so you still talk nonsense?"
Chu Xiaoye was at a loss, so she stopped asking questions and concentrated on eating with her head down.
Anyway, what happened in the past 300 years has nothing to do with him, just get the tears of the stone statue safely and save his life.
Chu Xiaoye thought very beautifully and purely.
Seeing that the young master was a little unhappy, the understanding and cheerful girl Yue Hen took the initiative to say: "Today is the annual vernal equinox festival in Heping City. There are many markets and lanterns on the street, which are very beautiful. Young master You've been busy these days, do you want to go out for a walk?"
"Well, it will be very interesting." Palace Master Mu rarely agreed.
Chu Xiaoye's appetite suddenly improved, and after taking a few mouthfuls of food, she jumped up and pulled Mu Yuntian outside: "Let's go, where to play!"
Palace Master Mu saw that he looked like a child, and when he heard that he was going out to play, his eyes lit up, and he couldn't help laughing: "The Spring Equinox Festival is only for viewing flowers during the day, and the main event is at night. After being tired for so many days, go back and rest first Rest, and we will go out when the sun goes down."
"Okay!" Chu Xiaohua's interest remained undiminished, and she was very supportive.
