Baili Fengzhi's personal guards?
Under the afterglow, Lin Yue drove the carriage towards the courtyard gate, a look of surprise appeared on his face, and thoughts kept flashing through his mind.
You have never looked for me before, but you happen to be waiting for me at the gate of the hospital today?
What was discovered? Still doubting something?
At this moment, Lin Yue's thoughts were surging, and he soon calmed down.
"Master Chu?"
Lin Yue sat on the carriage, holding the reins with both hands, and stopped the carriage in front of the courtyard gate. At the same time, he looked at the leader of this group of guards in surprise: "My lord, are you waiting for me?"
The other party turned out to be Lieutenant General Chu whom he had met several times before.
"Yes." Vice General Chu nodded slightly, and at the same time looked at the carriage behind Lin Yue.
Lin Yue immediately jumped out of the carriage, bowed his hands and said: "Excuse me, sir, I'm here in person. The grass people are scared, but please wait for a moment and allow the grass people to take Zhuo Jing back to the house, take medicine and rest. Today, Zhuo Jing is traveling with the grass people, which is a bit too much." I am tired and my physical condition is not good at this time, please forgive me."
Vice General Chu glanced at the carriage and said calmly: "Go, there is no need to rush, I will wait for you here."
"Thank you, sir."
Lin Yue cupped his hands gratefully, and first opened the locks on the courtyard door and house door. Then he returned to the carriage, opened the curtain, and gently took 'Su Ziqiu' out of the carriage.
Vice General Chu looked at the two of them quietly from the side, and suddenly said: "Your wife's condition is much more serious than before. She has a fever again?"
Based on his perception, he naturally discovered that not only was the woman's breath getting weaker and weaker, but she was also feeling hot all over. It seemed that she had a high fever.
Lin Yue sighed, "Yes, Zhuojing has a hard life, he was born weak, and he has been severely injured and has not recovered. I'm afraid...I'm afraid that his time is running out."
Having said this, he looked at Su Ziqiu in his arms, with deep sadness in his eyes and a bitter smile: "Zhuo Jing has to go out of the city with the grassroots today. In addition to visiting her ancestors in autumn, she also wants to choose a place she likes. The scenery will be used as a burial place in the future. The common people feel soft-hearted for a moment, but they don’t want to... alas..."
Vice Admiral Chu was silent for a moment and said, "Bring your wife in quickly, there's no need to rush."
Although he sympathized with the young couple who had suffered an unreasonable disaster, he knew that there were some things that he couldn't do, so he could only stand by and watch.
Besides, this woman is so weak and has a high fever that she may not be able to survive tonight.
Even a Taoist practitioner who is usually good at alchemy would have a hard time curing her, let alone a martial arts practitioner who is only good at killing enemies.
"Thank you, sir."
Lin Yue thanked him, then carried Su Ziqiu into the yard and returned to the house.
He casually placed the most important package on the most conspicuous table, put Su Ziqiu on the bed, fetched a basin of water, wiped her hot body with a wet cloth, and then placed a wet cloth on her forehead. .
He has to do all the acting, at least he thinks that his current performance is no different from that of a real husband.
The Lieutenant General Chu outside the door was indeed kind-hearted. As a strong martial artist, he was willing to wait at the door for a humble citizen like him to give his young couple enough time.
I'm afraid, I was also moved by compassion, and even if I couldn't help, I still wanted to give him more time to accompany him.
only……
Lieutenant General Chu probably couldn't have imagined that the real Su Ziqiu... had died as early as that day.
She has never tried even the simplest life of a couple for a day.
Lin Yue, on the other hand, could only hide all the blood and tears in his heart, and endured his life under the same roof with the person he hated the most.
A full hundred days.
Fortunately... these days are coming to an end.
"Thank you, sir. Please wait."
After Lin Yue locked the door of the house and the courtyard, he raised his hands to Deputy General Chu and said, "I wonder what your orders are to the common people?"
Vice Admiral Chu shook his head slightly and said, "It's nothing important. I just came to tell you on the order of the commander."
He paused and said: "Within this month, if Mr. Xialie is not found again, the commander is going to take heavy action against Taoist Master Tu. Sir, let me tell you, if you still want to see that old Taoist again." , today is the last chance.”
"Today?" Lin Yue asked doubtfully, "Why today?"
"You don't need to ask any more questions about this matter."
Vice General Chu shook his head and asked, "Are you willing to see that old man again?"
Maybe it's a test? It would be best not to go, but... Lin Yue pondered for a moment and said, "Then let's meet again."
…
In front of the cell door in the deepest part of the prison.
With a clang, the prison door made of cold iron slowly opened, revealing a somewhat dark prison inside.
Baili Fengzhi, still wearing a red shirt and a silver mask, stood quietly aside, glanced at Lin Yue with his slightly narrow red phoenix eyes, and said softly: "Go in."
As she spoke, she walked into the cell with her long legs.
Lin Yue followed and walked into it.
In the quiet and cold prison, Taoist Master Tu was still sitting silently at the table, but he looked a little more embarrassed than last time, and his silver hair was a little messy.
Seeing Lin Yue come in at this time, Taoist Master Tu just glanced at him indifferently, frowned slightly and said, "Why is it like this again?"
"Taoist Master Tu."
Baili Fengzhi stood lazily with his arms folded, and said casually: "This Lin Yue was once regarded by you as the successor, and you just asked him to come and see you for the last time."
"The last time?" Taoist Tu glanced at Baili Fengzhi, "Is the commander planning to use severe punishment?"
Baili Fengzhi's phoenix eyes under the silver mask were full of indifference, and he just said in a low voice: "Taoist Tu has been silent, and I have nothing to do. Maybe I will strike a little harder, even if Taoist Tu is unfortunately defeated because of this." , I can’t blame anyone, so please bear with me.”
Tu Daochang sighed, shook his head and said: "The old Taoist said that I don't know, I just don't know. Commander Baili is really stubborn... Yes, female generals are women after all, and women are indeed stubborn."
Baili Fengzhi didn't care whether Taoist Tu's words were mocking or had other meanings. Instead, he looked at Lin Yue and said, "Lin Yue, just say what you want to say. I heard that you are leaving the city today." Go, your wife is dying?"
"Yes, Lord Commander."
Lin Yue cupped his hands and sighed: "The clumsy bramble has not been strong for a long time. I wanted to go out and have a look. Cao Min was soft-hearted and agreed. Unexpectedly, the autumn wind on the mountain was very strong. After she climbed up and trekked with Cao Min, she was blown by the autumn wind and started to stir up on the way back. She has a fever, her bones are probably..."
He sighed and did not continue. He just saluted and said, "When Cao Min has finished talking to this old Taoist, if your Excellency has no other instructions, please allow Cao Min to go home and accompany Zhuo Jing through the last part of the journey."
Taoist Tu glanced at Lin Yue without revealing any trace, but there was a hint of thinking in his eyes.
"It doesn't matter, you can go back at any time." Baili Fengzhi said calmly.
"Thank you, sir."
Lin Yue handed over his hand again, then turned to look at Lao Tao, frowning slightly and said: "Lao Tao Tu, I don't want to see you again in this life. Whether you live or die has nothing to do with me, but considering the love we have had over the past year, I still coming."
He paused and said: "I came here today just to persuade you not to hold on. I know that you must have killed Xia Lie, and besides you, no one else is suspected of this. You might as well go and have fun." You can admit it freely and avoid punishment, so you can finally settle down happily, right?"
Baili Fengzhi's brows furrowed slightly when he heard this, and he turned his head slightly as he couldn't bear to listen.
Lin Yue is here again. He doesn't know anything, so he forcefully infers that this veteran killed Xia Lie. Does he really think he is very smart?
"hehe……"
Tu Laodao just sneered, "You came to see Lao Tao just to talk about this? It's really filthy. It's better to go home and be with your wife. She is about to die. Do you still have the heart to come to see Lao Tao? I'm afraid it's not to please. Is this Baili Commander?"
"I don't know what's wrong!"
Lin Yue couldn't help but said angrily: "Isn't it you who caused Ziqiu to be like this? I know you hate her, but I'm afraid she won't be able to hold on for two days, and you are still so sarcastic?"
Tu Laodao responded with a cold face.
There was silence in the prison for a while.
Lin Yue took several deep breaths before calming down.
Then, he said in a cold voice: "Perhaps this is the last time you and I will meet. I told you last time that I will have nothing to do with you from now on. I don't need you to treat me as your descendant anymore. No matter what happens in the future, you will I can only stay in the dark dungeon, and you can no longer interfere in my life, do you understand?"
Tu Laodao was silent for a while and said calmly: "There is so much nonsense. What else can you do to interfere in the life of an ordinary person? Consider your own abilities."
Lin Yue glanced at Tu Laodao one last time, then bowed his hand to Baili Fengzhi, then turned around and left the prison indifferently.
He had made it very clear just now.
With the wisdom of an old drunkard, he must be able to understand what he is saying.
Baili Fengzhi didn't say anything, just glanced at Tu Laodao, turned around and walked out of the prison.
With a clang, the cold and solid prison door closed again.
In the darkness, Tu Laodao sat silently in the prison, thinking about what Lin Yue had just said, and murmured in his heart: "Yue'er, what on earth do you mean... The fake Su Ziqiu is going to die in the next two days, is she?" Xia Lie? What on earth are you going to do, and you went out of your way to warn me not to take action..."
At this moment, he suddenly felt regret in his heart, and slowly lowered his head, with tears faintly filling his old eyes.
"Lu'er, daddy is sorry for you...but daddy has sworn that he will never use Shenxiao Taoism again in this life...I wanted to be an ordinary person in this life, and also wanted Yueer to stay away from disputes and live such a plain life. That’s fine, but…”
He sat with his head bowed in the cold prison, like a waning and powerless old man, with the contradictory frustration and longing of a self-imprisoned person stuck in his throat.
"Yue'er... nothing can happen to you..."
…
In the dark and long corridor of the prison.
"Lin Yue."
Baili Fengzhi's cold and plain voice suddenly came from behind him. Lin Yue turned around and saw Baili Fengzhi walking over with Deputy General Chu.
He immediately raised his hands and said, "Do you have any other instructions, sir?"
Baili Fengzhi looked at him and said softly: "It's nothing, I just feel that... what you said to the old Taoist just now seems to be too much?"
After saying so much, she really started to doubt me again, very good... Lin Yue's heart moved.
Immediately he sighed and said: "Yes, although Tu Laodao ordered Na Xialie to kill Zhuojing, he has been really kind to me in the past year. Gratitudes are hard to resolve, and the common people talk too much."
Baili Fengzhi didn't say anything, but suddenly asked: "If your guess is wrong and your wife's death was not caused by him, what would you do?"
"Not him?" Lin Yue was slightly startled and said, "Have you found the murderer?"
"It's just a speculation." Baili Fengzhi said calmly.
"So that's it." Lin Yue suddenly realized, and continued: "But the common people think that the murderer must be the old man. I just want to kill him. Maybe the old man will admit it?"
Baili Fengzhi frowned and said indifferently: "You can leave. Remember, you are not allowed to leave Qingdu this month."
Lin Yue was startled for a moment, but he still held up his hands and said, "Yes, the common people will resign."
When Lin Yue's back disappeared at the end of the dark corridor of the prison, Lieutenant General Chu suddenly said: "Sir, didn't you say before that there is no suspicion about Lin Yue, and there is no need to send people to investigate and track him when he leaves the city, why did you just... …”
"Today is the Double Ninth Festival. Of those people on the list who are suspected of going out for an autumn outing in the city, the people I sent to track them found nothing."
Baili Fengzhi said calmly: "This small Qingdu is obviously closely related to Xia Lie's disappearance, but there is not even a single conclusive clue to be found. Don't you think it's strange?"
"That's true." Lieutenant General Chu said doubtfully, "But Lin Yue..."
"It's just my spiritual awareness."
Baili Fengzhi slightly narrowed his red phoenix eyes, looked at the road Lin Yue left, and said slowly: "He and Tu Laodao haven't seen each other for a while, but they talked a lot when they met today. He is still very It feels a little strange to think that it was the old Taoist who killed Xia Lie."
"Your Majesty, martial arts and spiritual knowledge can make no mistakes." Vice General Chu frowned slightly and said, "Maybe Lin Yue is hiding some secrets, but I don't think his feelings for his wife are fake."
"Send someone to keep an eye on him." Baili Fengzhi ordered.
"No need to investigate?" Vice General Chu asked doubtfully.
"no need."
Baili Fengzhi said softly: "Counting the time, there is not much time left until Xia Lie reaches adulthood."
…
That night.
Lin Yue sat quietly in the courtyard, expressionlessly thinking about the details of the next plan.
If he failed, he would most likely die.
However, regardless of success or failure, Tu Laodao will not be implicated.
He was only worried that Tu Laodao would not be able to help but take action, because he knew that the prison could not trap Tu Laodao.
What trapped the old man was his own oath.
"clang!"
At this moment, a loud sound like the knocking of a bell suddenly exploded in Lin Yue's mind!
In an instant, everything in front of him seemed to have stopped in an instant.
Everything was silent, only the high-pitched and majestic bells echoed in my mind.
"clang!"
Another high-pitched bell echoed, and then an ethereal voice quietly sounded, speaking softly in his mind.
"Did you know? The awakening of innate supernatural powers is not entirely an unknown god-given ability. It is closely related to a person's soul, bloodline, roots, talents, etc., such as Xia Lie, whose source of blood is vitality. Therefore, once his innate magical power is awakened, it must be related to the restoration of life."
Immediately, the voice gradually disappeared without a trace.
"Is Xialie's innate magical power related to life recovery?"
Lin Yue silently digested this second-level secret, a smile appeared on his lips, and he felt more confident about the next plan.
…
Sunrise and moonset.
Time flows endlessly.
This night, the tenth day of September, is destined to be an extraordinary night.
"Boom--!"
In the night sky above Qingdu, a huge roar suddenly exploded.
Accompanied by the rolling thunder, a series of horn-like electric lights suddenly appeared on the sky, wandering in the night sky, disturbing the darkness of the sky, and thousands of neon lights streaked across the sky, like a long It leads to the horizon like a bridge, and countless golden and jade-like light slurries are quietly scattered.
Such a magnificent scene spread across the sky.
I don't know how many people looked up at the night sky at this moment, watching this scene in shock and speechlessness.
"Accompanied by thunder, the rainbow bridge fills the sky, and even more light slurry scatters around the world... I once saw a description of this scene in a Taoist book..."
"...It's the Xia Hong family!"
"It's Xia Hong's bloodline awakening vision!"
"Such a grand scene must be more than just the ordinary powerful children of the Xia Hong family!"
At this moment, voices full of shock and excitement rang out from everywhere in Qingdu City.
"Here you are! Are you really in Qingdu?"
Baili Fengzhi stood on the railing on the highest star-gazing tower of the City Lord's Mansion, squinting his eyes to search for the source of the strange sight.
Suddenly, her beautiful eyes turned cold: "It's at Lin Yue's home!"
