Because of the potential danger of the Azure Dragon Jiao, several people went searching in pairs. It was agreed that if the search failed that day, they would return to their scheduled gathering place to rendezvous, and try not to act rashly alone.
Yu Wan and others searched various peaks for several days, but never saw a single pond of lotus.
According to the records in "The Chronicles of All Things", this water lotus seed is the lotus heart in the lotus pod.
The lotus heart grows on the lotus pod of the white lotus. This white lotus is very strange. It blooms on one side and bears fruit on the other. The buds, flowers and lotus pods coexist. The jade lotus root grows together in the river mud. It does not grow in stages, but grows simultaneously.
Therefore, the target is quite clear. If there is one, they have traveled most of the east. Shouldn't there be no trace of Bailian?
Another day passed, and still nothing was found, so I had to return to the gathering place to rest.
In the dead of night...
"Junior Sister Yu, please come and keep vigil until midnight tonight." Ling Jun said.
"Yeah, sure." Yu Wan replied.
After saying that, Ling Jun sat on the other side and meditated with his eyes closed. The other people were also diligent people and never delayed their practice.
Although they have set up a defensive barrier, they still have to be careful in a secret environment. Yu night had to stay vigil and couldn't practice, so she came to the fire and sat down. She took a thin piece of wood and put it into the fire to make it burn brighter.
"Junior Sister Yu, I...can I sit next to you?"
While she was tinkering with the fire, a male voice sounded in front of her.
Yu Wan looked up and saw that the person coming was Ling Yang. He was looking at her with a somewhat embarrassed expression, waiting for her reply.
When Yu Wan saw that it was Ling Yang, she didn't object and nodded towards him.
Ling Yang got Yu Wan's permission and sat down opposite her fire.
"I...can I take the liberty to ask junior sister a question?" Ling Yang found a rare opportunity to ask the doubts in his heart.
Yu Wan didn't know what Ling Yang wanted to ask, so she looked at him and nodded: "Yeah, sure."
"Junior Sister looks very much like an old friend of mine. I would like to ask, who else is in Junior Sister Yu's family?"
When Yu Wan heard this, she couldn't help but frown. Why, two people who are like strangers just chatted all day long, and you came up to check your household registration? Brat! Can you chat?
Seeing Yu Wan's displeased expression, Ling Yang also felt that the start of the chat was too straightforward and offensive, so he quickly explained:
"Don't get me wrong, here's the thing. From the first time I met my junior sister in Lin'an City, I thought she looked like an elder like me. She has been missing for many years, and there is no news whether she is alive or dead. So Years passed and the family no longer had any hope.
But that elder has taken good care of me since I was a child. Although I am young, she left a deep impression on me. Therefore, when I saw you, junior sister, I thought of that elder. You two are so tall. Like it. Therefore, I abruptly asked Junior Sister Yu about her family situation. I just wanted to know who Junior Sister Yu’s mother was? Is he that elder of mine? "
After Yu Wan heard this, she was a little shocked, but her face didn't show it. No wonder she saw this brat look at her with evasive eyes before, which made her feel narcissistic.
Yes!
Ling? ! The surname is Ling!
Isn’t my aunt’s surname Ling?
Missing? Is it as simple as just missing? If it’s really A Niang, then why did A Niang’s Dantian become crippled and why did she lose her memory?
Haha, the evil sexton in the big family...
However, Yu Wan could take this opportunity to find out some things about the elder Ling Yang mentioned. Regardless of whether that elder was his aunt or not, if unfortunately he was right, he could at least know that his aunt was actually What happened?
"Oh? Why did your elder disappear?" Yu Wan did not answer Ling Yang's question, but asked him instead.
"Hey... As a junior, I shouldn't discuss the affairs of my elders, but as for the disappearance of my second aunt, I was still young at the time. I only remember that they said that when she came back from burning incense in the temple to pay her vows, she encountered bandits, and then disappeared. There was no trace of her. After years of torture, there was no news. The people in the tribe had given up hope and only thought she... Although they sent many people to search and even wiped out several bandit groups on nearby hills, there was still no trace of the second aunt. ."
After listening to Ling Yang's story, Yu Wan thought to herself, could it be that Ling Yang's second aunt was not framed by someone from the Ling family? Just unlucky enough to meet a bandit?
As if thinking of something, Yu Wan asked doubtfully:
"You all have the cultivation level, so does your second aunt have the cultivation level? If she has the cultivation level, it shouldn't be a problem to deal with the bandits, right?"
Ling Yang shook his head and said:
"Second aunt has no cultivation level. If she had cultivation level, she would have joined the sect when the sect accepted disciples long before we were born."
When Yu Wan heard this, it seemed that the second aunt Ling Yang was talking about was not A Niang!
Aniang obviously had some cultivation experience. Although her aptitude for the Three Spiritual Roots was not good, she was still able to cultivate, but her Dantian was destroyed by someone.
Thinking of this, Yu Wan still asked casually:
"What's your second aunt's name?"
"My second aunt's name is Ling Niang." Ling Yang replied.
Yu Wan looked shocked!
Ling Niang? !
Did she hear it correctly? !
Yu Wan stood up, came to Ling Yang's side, lifted up his collar, stared at him with serious eyes, confirmed again and asked:
"What's your second aunt's name?"
Ling Yang was startled by how excited Yu Wan was, and immediately replied obediently: "Ling...Ling Niang."
After getting the exact answer, Yu Wan let go of Ling Yang's collar.
Ling Niang! Haha, this is not only my grandma’s name, it’s also the only thing I remember!
There are so many logical coincidences in the world. It seems that my mother-in-law is really a member of the Ling family.
But according to Ling Yang’s opinion, A Niang didn’t have the cultivation skills to be the first to deal with the robbers.
If calculated based on his age, he is now about fourteen years old. At least A Niang has not cultivated for more than ten years, or even longer!
And A-Niang is only in her mid-twenties, which means that A-Niang was damaged in her pubic area when she was very young!
Ah! This idea is vicious enough! My grandma's path to immortality has been ruined since she was a child. What a hatred and resentment! Who did this cruel method? Is Grandma's qualifications superior, or is she even a poor spiritual root qualification? She doesn't have the strength and ability to threaten others at all, so why must she destroy Grandma's Dantian?
Thinking of these unanswerable questions, Yu Wan said coolly:
"How is your second aunt's life in your Ling family? Why are you so sure that your second aunt has no cultivation level?"
Seeing Yu Wan's excited and nervous attitude just now, Ling Yang felt vaguely in his heart that Yu Wan's mother was his second aunt?
Thinking of this, his face lit up with joy, but when he was about to ask Yu Wan for the truth, he hesitated a little when he heard Yu Wan's questions, not knowing how to answer...
After all, the second aunt's life was not very good. The second aunt's mother was one of the many concubines of her grandfather. The second aunt was the child of a concubine who was not favored. The Ling family has a great business. After my aunt passed away, naturally no one cared about the birth of a child by an unpopular concubine. She was often treated harshly and even bullied by servants.
Although he was also the son of a concubine, his biological mother was a favored one, which made his life with Ling Zhen much easier.
But Ling Yang remembered his second aunt well. That was when he was five years old. Once, Ling Xuan led a group of direct descendants to bully him. They tied him to a tree and played with throwing stones. He was hit by stones all the time. It hurt, and the group of direct children laughed at him and threw stones at him wantonly.
Ling Yang knew that Ling Xuan did this just to avenge his mother and vent his anger on him. Fortunately, the second aunt passed by the courtyard and drank them away, so she untied herself in order not to worry her mother. , the second aunt even brought him to her place specially to remove the swelling on his forehead so that his mother would not feel distressed.
Since then, Ling Yang often went to Ling Niang and listened to her read stories from the storybook. He also learned how to read from the second aunt, which was much more interesting than the old master's lectures...
"Hey... I've come to my senses now. Why are you in a daze? What are you asking me?"
Yu Wan, who had to respond for a long time, waved his hand in front of Ling Yang's eyes, pulling Ling Yang back from his thoughts.
