Many days passed, it was already autumn, and the temperature was getting colder, but the Marquis did not take any action, asked no questions, and was not monitored, as if nothing had happened. After being grounded for a long time, he stayed at home with his beloved concubine Yao Miao, enjoying life with me and me, and never caused any trouble to them.
Qingtian and Que Xiu wandered around the house all day long, full of food and drinks, nothing to do, and completely bored.
"It turns out that having nothing to do can be so torturous. I feel like I'm going moldy!"
"I think you are used to being a servant, so you like to make fun of yourself." Qingtian took the opportunity to ridicule him. The two bickered for a few more words and then got down to business.
"It's not an option to continue like this, we can't afford to waste time!"
Que Xiu nodded and answered, "I really don't understand what kind of medicine the Marquis sells in his gourd. I can't figure it out."
"If you can't guess, don't guess. Let's take the initiative, alert the enemy, and then explore his true intentions."
"Then what if we encounter him head-on again?"
Qingtian thought for a while and said: "He is very powerful. If we attack again, we can attack with all our strength. Maybe we can guess the martial arts from the martial arts."
The night is deep and the sky is a quarter moon. The fragrant osmanthus in the courtyard is refreshing. They carefully crossed the courtyard and came to the bamboo forest at the back. It was quiet and no one was around.
Qingtian stepped forward and was about to untie the barrier. However, a ray of blue light appeared deep in the bamboo forest, gradually expanded, and a moon gate opened on the barrier, and a young man stepped out.
"I, Qu Liang, have been ordered to wait for the two young masters. Please follow me in." The man bowed his hands and saluted, but Que Xiu clenched his fists and was secretly on guard.
Qingtian's eyes signaled him to relax. Three people filed in in groups. The courtyard is not big, and the few lanterns above the eaves are dim and a bit strange.
Entering the main hall, the Marquis sat in the middle with a gloomy expression. He motioned for the two of them to sit aside, and then told Qu Liang: "Call the young master over immediately!"
The Marquis closed his eyes slightly, like a stone Buddha, motionless and speechless. The two of them were sitting on pins and needles, wondering what he was trying to do.
After a moment, Ji Zhe came in, but before he could gain a firm footing, Hou Ye swayed in front of him, raised his hand and slapped him twice, loudly and loudly, causing Ji Zhe to fall to the ground.
"You ignorant little beast, how dare you hide such a big thing from me!"
Ji Zhi held his cheek in his hands and looked very stubborn, uncharacteristically, "I want to hide it from you, and I also want to make them behave like cattle and horses, tormenting them in every possible way, making them miserable!"
The Marquis was furious, and his face was filled with anger and his eyes were as sharp as a knife. "Have you forgotten why you were kicked out of your home, your family ties were cut off, your eyes were disabled, and you were subjected to the curse of 'Heart Burning on the Moon' every day, and life was worse than death?"
After asking questions like a barrage of questions, the Marquis turned from anger to sadness and slumped down on his chair.
"You are talented, but just because you are a concubine, you were ruthlessly abandoned and received such unfair treatment. Don't you hate it? You changed your surname to 'Qu' because you can't forget the grievances and indignation in your heart? Now you are sternly criticizing them with righteous words. I, don’t you feel aggrieved in your heart?”
"Don't forget, my mother passed away due to poverty and depression. All these are thanks to them. I only have hatred in my heart for such a family!"
The Marquis gradually calmed down and pointed with his finger: "You can hate or complain, but it is about the life and death of the family, but you hid it and refused to report it, and you almost missed the important event."
He twisted and turned to look at the two of them, his eyes as hateful as knives, "For these two idiots, I wish I could skin them and fry them. I can't help them." He finished speaking bitterly, and left with a flourish of his sleeves.
Qingtian and Que Xiu were trying to piece together the information and try to figure it out. At this time, the Marquis let out a long sigh and then said: "Actually, I am your uncle Murong Yuo."
Qingtian was shocked, and Que Xiu was shocked. Another uncle appeared out of nowhere, and it was obvious that he had learned his true identity.
"When my brother Yue was in danger, I sent you here because he wanted me to help and help the family survive the disaster."
Qingtian was also doubtful because he had never heard anyone mention that he had an uncle. The Marquis smiled bitterly and continued: "I am half a year older than your father. The old family leader named us two after the word 'League', hoping that we can surpass our predecessors and carry forward the Murong family."
We already know the following story from the previous conversation between father and son, so there is no need to ask any more questions. Qingtian stepped forward and saluted, "Excuse me, uncle, what happened to the Murong family?"
The Marquis waved his hand gently, and the candlelight in the hall suddenly dimmed, and the light blue curtain in the sky slowly opened. There were mountains and green woods above, but the two of them didn't know what they meant.
"This is Songyue Mountain's Jianyun Peak. It was originally the location of Murong Villa. Now everything has disappeared..."
Qingtian was shocked and interjected: "How could the huge Zhuangzi disappear?"
"I sent people to take samples everywhere and found that the magic power was extremely powerful. It should have been sealed by the ancient formation 'Sirius'."
"Then quickly unlock the seal?"
The Marquis shook his head slightly, "It's easier said than done! According to the ancient books of Xuanji Pavilion, the seal of the 'Sirian Wolf Formation' opens a foreign time and space, and cannot be broken from the inside or the outside. Therefore, it is called the Eternal Strange Formation, one of the four great seals. This matter requires Think long term!”
Upon hearing this, Qingtian fell down and sat down, lost his mind, and murmured to himself: "So, more than a hundred members of the Murong family, as well as the famous and decent disciples, as well as the common people watching the fun, have been buried alive and cannot be freed?"
He suddenly jumped up, grabbed Que Xiu's collar and shook it vigorously, "This is all your master's conspiracy. You are helping the evil, and you are unworthy of your ancestors!"
Let him shake, Que Xiu's face remained expressionless, as if everything had nothing to do with him. When Qingtian was exhausted, he pushed away coldly, "Who am I and who are you? What qualifications do you have to accuse me?"
Qingtian lost his mind and didn't know how to answer. He saw Que Xiu walk away with a puff of his sleeves.
The misty rain in autumn lasted for several days, and the beaded curtains under the eaves were like tears. Que Xiu was melancholy and unhappy. In the past few days, he and Qingtian were like magnetic poles repelling each other, and they were never seen again. He didn't know what happened, but he was sure it had something to do with his master. Murong Villa is sealed, where is the master? Could he be in danger?
When his thoughts were wandering, a cough came from behind him, and the Marquis stood under the eaves. His white eyes were dull and lifeless.
Que Xiu was outspoken and asked: "Master Hou, you seem to be blind, why can you move freely?"
The Marquis smiled, but his answer was inappropriate: "As usual, you should call me uncle."
His words touched Que Xiu's pain, and he lowered his head and said nothing.
"I can understand the hatred in your heart, being abandoned in the wilderness, wandering around, and suffering. But no matter how much you hate, you can never forget your roots and origins. This is the foundation of human nature."
Que Xiu was a little surprised, "How do you know so much? Did that guy tell you?"
The Marquis shook his head gently, "There must be many unanswered questions in your heart, but before that, let me see what you are capable of!"
