Dong Shanggui died to prove his ambition and prove his innocence.
Li Shuidao's suspicion of assassinating Ma Tiangang has not been cleared at all!
Not only was the suspicion not cleared, it was even aggravated.
Lan Huaying looked at Li Shui seriously and said: "According to the wishes of the Ma family, we should use the soul search technique on you to make you tell the truth. However, our Lan family did not agree, so we saved your life. "
Li Shuidao said gratefully: "Thank you, senior sister."
Lan Huaying nodded with satisfaction and continued: "After discussion among the four major families of the Law Enforcement Hall, it was decided that you should be released from prison first and continue to serve the sect."
Li Shuidao knelt on his knees and said: "Senior Sister, just give orders, and my subordinates will go through fire and water, even to the death."
Lan Huaying walked up to Li Shuidao, helped him up and said, "It doesn't have to be like this, we can be considered old friends."
"Sit down and have a cup of tea." Lan Huaying said with a smile.
"My subordinates will never dare."
"Sit down if I tell you to!" Lan Huaying said with a serious face.
Li Shuidao sat down cautiously, Lan Huaying made him a cup of tea, and then whispered: "You did a good job on Ma Tiangang."
Li Shuidao asked with some confusion: "Senior Sister, what do you mean?"
Lan Huaying laughed loudly and said: "Hehehehe... I praise you, just know it well. You are a rare smart person."
Li Shuidao said gratefully: "Thank you, Senior Sister, for upholding justice for your subordinates."
Lan Huaying smiled and said: "You are a talent. You can defeat Ma Tiangang who used Ten Thousand Poisons to Pierce the Heart with the "Leng Yue Sword Technique". How can such cultivation and talent be treated with the Soul Searching Technique? So what?" Being able to be locked up in the Poison Abyss for a long time? That would be a loss to the entire sect. Publicly, privately, emotionally and rationally, the Lan family will protect you."
Li Shuidao said again: "Thank you, senior sister. I am very grateful."
Li Shuidao has said how grateful he is countless times today.
Lan Huaying said these words in front of Li Shuidao just to win over people's hearts and to hear him say "I am grateful".
Apparently Li Shuidao's "extreme gratitude" made Lan Huaying very satisfied.
Just at this time.
A ray of light pierced the sky, like a shooting star, arriving in an instant.
The light that escaped was none other than Sea Snake Taoist Li Tianwu.
He thanked Lan Huaying with a face full of surprise: "Miss Lan, thanks to your help, otherwise my water channel may never be able to clear the suspicion and escape the pain of prison."
Lan Huaying smiled and nodded: "Your Li family can be regarded as belonging to our Lan family. This is what I should do. I also admire your family's unity and help."
"It was only through the good offices of the Lan family that my nephew was able to escape from prison. The entire Li family is grateful for their kindness and will never forget it," Li Tianwu said sincerely.
Lan Huaying nodded again with satisfaction and waved his hand and said, "You guys go back."
Li Shuidao and Li Tianwu both said goodbye, and then drove away together.
Shenmu City.
Li Mansion.
Li clan ancestral hall.
A solemn ceremony is being held.
When Li Shuidao stepped into the ancestral hall, a solemn atmosphere hit his face. There are tablets of ancestors in the ancestral hall. Under the candlelight, the statues of gods are solemn and solemn, as if they are watching everyone who comes to worship.
Li Shuidao, who put on a floor-length white dress, knelt in front of his ancestors, clasped his hands together, and expressed his gratitude to his ancestors devoutly.
"Unfilial descendants, Li Shuidao paid homage to my ancestors and thanked my ancestors for their blessings, which allowed me to escape from prison and clear my grievances. Unfilial descendants, I feel deeply grateful and will continue to pass on the blood of the family and work for the family through life and death. Through fire and water.”
Patriarch Li Shuihong, dressed in gorgeous robes, solemnly walked onto the altar. He held moxa leaf water and solemnly sprinkled it.
His voice echoed through the ancestral hall: "Li Shuidao, you are the pride of our Li family. You must always think about the family. May your ancestors bless you, get rid of bad luck, and start over."
The moxa leaf water fell on Li Shuidao's body, slightly moistening his robe. Like the blessings of ancestors...
Li Shuidao escaped from prison, and Lan Huaying called him over immediately, flaunting his role, and asking him to serve the Lan family with meritorious deeds.
Then Li Tianwu took Li Shuidao into the family, and Li Shuidao began to thank his ancestors again. He must be grateful and serve the family.
The ceremony is over...
Li Shuidao gratefully bid farewell to his ancestors and the patriarch Li Shuihong, and left the ancestral hall.
An ordinary house in the Li Mansion is surrounded by dense woods, like a paradise.
This is the residence of his father Li Haoshan.
After Li Shuidao said goodbye to his ancestors, he and his wife Xia Ruoxue came here to reunite with their parents, relatives, brothers and sisters and share a reunion dinner.
The dining table at home is filled with sumptuous food, and the aroma is fragrant. Li Haoshan sat at the head of the family, his eyes full of relief and pride. He looked at Li Shuidao and said gently: "Shui Dao, you have gone through so much and finally came back to us. It's not easy. Come on..."
Li Shuidao held up the wine glass with both hands and said: "It's all because of the sect's clear understanding, the blessing of the ancestors, and the support of my parents that I can persevere and wait until the day when my injustice is overturned!"
Mother Jiang patted Li Shuidao's hand tenderly, with tears in her eyes: "Shui Dao, if you are so honest, you will definitely not kill anyone. We all know that you were wronged."
Xia Ruoxue sat aside gently, smiling and saying nothing.
Li Shuixi and Li Shuidong were also full of joy. The three siblings hugged each other and their laughter echoed in the room. At this moment, family warmth and unity fill the air.
They sat around the dining table, enjoying the food and talking about each other's current affairs. Laughter and joy intertwined together, filling the whole family with a happy atmosphere.
Night falls.
Li Shuidao and Xia Ruoxue flew away together and returned to Tianchifang.
Tianchifang.
Above the stone building, a breeze blew, gently blowing Xia Ruoxue's black silk clothes and Li Shuidao's white Confucian robes.
In more than three months, this was the first time Li Shuidao saw the bright moon in the sky.
It's not easy...
Li Shuidao gently lifted Xia Ruoxue's black hair...
The two of them were speechless, both only looking at each other's eyes.
Against the backdrop of the starry sky, the moonlight shone on them like a soft halo.
The two of them quietly bathed in the moonlight...
Li Shuidao gently stroked Xia Ruoxue's cheek and said softly: "Xue'er, thank you very much this time."
Xia Ruoxue's voice was as sweet as a clear spring: "I didn't do anything."
"It's because you didn't do anything that I was able to leave smoothly." Li Shuidao said softly.
"Can we do it now?"
"It's ready."
…
Their hands were clasped tightly, each other's heartbeats intertwined. They released so much love that it seemed like the whole world was surrounded by their love.
Li Shuidao absorbed the moonlight.
Three months...
This was the first time he absorbed the essence of the moon after three months of not seeing the light of day.
Practice overnight.
Early morning.
Li Shuidao stretched out his muscles and then came to his study.
Xia Ruoxue gently pushed open the study door. She first took out a token from her storage bag. There was a dark skull engraved on the token. The skull's eyes were burning with red will-o'-wisps, exuding a mysterious aura. .
Li Shuidao raised his head, his eyes fell on the token in Xia Ruoxue's hand, and asked curiously: "Could this be it?"
Xia Ruoxue explained with a smile: "This thing is the Zhaoyi Order. Owning it means that Tianchifang has become an affiliated cultivating family of 'Miaoyin Pavilion'. We can recommend Tianchifang's disciples to go to Miaoyin Pavilion to complete tasks and earn merits; At the same time, they can also learn the magical inheritance of Miaoyin Pavilion. Moreover, we can also share the secret door information so that we can find out any information."
Li Shuidao raised his brows slightly and nodded with satisfaction: "Very good... let's not focus on taking on the killer mission. That is extremely stupid behavior. You need to allocate some people to organize the secret hall to collect intelligence. .Intelligence must be collected at any time. Don’t wait until you need it. You must know that intelligence is also a resource, and it is one of the most important resources in practice. You can learn from Ju Mujin how to collect and manage intelligence.”
"Yes, husband." Xia Ruoxue nodded solemnly in agreement.
"This is the account book of the secret treasury." Xia Ruoxue handed a thick stack of account books to Li Shuidao. Li Shuidao took the account book and carefully looked through the income and expenditure at the back. This account book also recorded the contents of the spiritual stone. It can be said that It's highly confidential.
Li Shuidao read through it carefully, and after looking at it for a long time, he nodded with satisfaction: "Very good, these profits are very good. We will hold a meeting tomorrow to inform them to be ready."
Xia Ruoxue nodded, turned and left.
After a while...
Zhu Hongling came to report with the account book in hand.
This account book is the normal income and expenditure of Tianchifang in the past three months, and does not involve the content of mineral laundering.
Li Shuidao looked through it carefully and found some losses, but not much.
Zhu Hongling looked worried, Li Shuidao smiled faintly, and comforted him in a warm voice: "No need to worry, some losses are completely reasonable."
"But if we can't make ends meet for a long time, this market may not be able to continue. Do we need to reduce the monthly payment or reduce the interest expenses?"
"None of these can be reduced." Li Shuidao said with a serious face.
“But if we cannot make ends meet for a long time, the market will be unsustainable.”
"Don't worry... Fangshi has other sources of income. You don't need to worry about this, but you can't make it public." Li Shuidao explained with a smile.
Only then did Zhu Hongling burst into laughter.
"Hong Ling, you have worked hard during this time." Li Shuidao pulled Zhu Hongling to his side and reached out to caress her.
The atmosphere in the study gradually became intimate...
The two began to share each other's daily life details and preferences, and in the end there was only silent communication...
Use the simplest and most direct way to convey support and love to each other. (End of chapter)
