Mr. Xiao Xiao Wuming, when he was young, was as famous as Tao Xingyan and other talented people in the world.
He single-handedly supported the lonely Xiao family and returned to the top of the five families in Pingjiang County.
Even now, he is a highly respected senior and is highly respected in Lin'an City.
Anyone who says that the highly respected Mr. Xiao has degenerated to the point of being evil will probably only be laughed at here.
Wang Sanhua suddenly heard what she said and was about to laugh out loud, but the things she had investigated in the past few days flashed through her mind and she couldn't laugh anymore.
He raised his eyes and saw Jiang Yu's face was calm, and the few thin pages of the book in his hand seemed to be extremely heavy and difficult to put down.
After a while, he asked in a low voice: "These are just your words. How can you achieve it?"
Jiang Yu looked at him for a long time, then turned to him and said, "Daozhang Wang, I think you came home these past two days because someone in your family has the same symptoms."
The boy's still slightly childish face showed a rare seriousness.
"Is this what you surmised as well?"
"You just say yes or no?"
He hesitated, but nodded.
really!
Jiang Yu frowned, feeling very puzzled.
What is it that makes these people try it even if they don't know the consequences?
Wang Sanhua lowered her eyes and looked at the book blankly for a long time, then reached out and closed the book, letting out a long sigh.
"Jian Shi, please stop investigating these matters."
Jiang Yu was stunned and asked anxiously: "Why?"
He avoided Jiang Yu's eyes staring at him and turned to look at the red plum trees in the courtyard.
Although it was extremely cold in the depths of winter, the snow in Lin'an City had melted a day ago, and the city became a little colder for no reason.
The red plum blossoms bloomed beautifully against the cold wind, but Wang Sanhua knew that this flower would not bloom for long.
"I might as well tell you the truth. This matter is most likely not the Xiao family's own problem. Do you know why I rushed back today? It is precisely because the five families will discuss matters in the Xiao Mansion at the end of today. If things are really as we expected , if you continue to investigate, let alone find your elder, I'm afraid you won't be able to protect yourself."
"So, do you still want to check?"
Jiang Yu instantly felt as if his head had been suddenly knocked down with a stick. To say he was awake did not mean he was awake. Only the four words "I can't protect myself" echoed in his heart, deafening.
This 'thing' may already involve the secrets of the five families in Pingjiang County. She can find out some secrets, but that doesn't mean she can continue to find out safely.
Some things may not be correct, but they are related to the vital interests of countless people.
In order to maintain superficial stability, if you sacrifice something, even if you create some unrest, someone will always take action to suppress it.
For the first time, Jiang Yu truly felt the secrets and undercurrents of this world.
It was a rare coincidence that she could enter the Xiao family, not to mention that when Mr. Xiao, Xiao Wuming, was seriously ill, the Xiao family was in chaos and had no time to care about anything else.
Otherwise, based on her and Li Zha's blatant exploration, they should have been captured long ago.
but……
"That's fine."
Jiang Yu stood up, raised his hands to Wang Sanhua and said: "This matter is a matter of your five families in Pingjiang County and has nothing to do with me, Jiang Yu. Since you have already made a decision, I will not intervene in the investigation. . If Jiang Yu is useful in the future, just let me know."
Wang Sanhua was surprised that Jiang Yu was so difficult to deal with before, but now he is so straightforward.
But then I thought about it, Jiang Yu herself came to Xiao Mansion to look for her elder from Shu. Now that the elder is not found, she has found the secret of Xiao Mansion. Now she can put aside the relationship and be clean.
"Jian Jianji Gaoyi." Wang Sanhua's eyebrows relaxed, and he clasped his fists at her and said, "If we have any news about your elder here, we will definitely inform you as soon as possible."
"Thank you."
Jiang Yu stopped talking to him and just said that he still wanted to practice, so he entered the side room.
Wang Sanhua didn't stay long. It was freezing cold. He just looked at Jiang Yu's closed door silently for a while, then turned and walked back.
Two children, Zhenmu and Xunfeng, poked their heads out at the door to see their uncle, who was in a good mood, humming a tune and walking in. Just as they were about to slip away, they were greeted by his fist to the top of their head.
"The two little brats are just eavesdropping, and they will copy the Tao Te Ching for me later!"
The sounds outside became quieter and quieter, and Jiang Yu loosened his grip on the door frame.
The light shined through the clear paper, casting a shadow on her face.
Yin Ban'er, who was staying in the room, came out of the darkness and laughed twice when he saw her appearance.
"Girl Jiang Yu, have you been persuaded to come back?"
"yes."
Jiang Yu turned around with a smile on his face: "I was persuaded to come back by him. It concerns the secrets of the five families in Pingjiang County. How can you tell me about it? Li Zha and I have done some useless work. Now it seems that I only have to find My master will be fine."
Yin Ban'er saw that her smile didn't reach her eyes and laughed out loud.
"Don't coax me into talking nonsense. Do you think I don't know that your master's disappearance is inextricably linked to the Xiao family? If you, a devil like you, won't continue to investigate, I will One doesn’t believe it.”
Jiang Yu rubbed his hands, and then felt his body return to warmth: "I just stopped checking on the five families in Pingjiang County, but I didn't say that I wouldn't check on my master. I said, just use Just look for my master."
It was freezing outside, and I didn't notice it when I ran out just now. Now I came back and stepped on the earth dragon and felt alive.
She held her face and felt a lot warmer. She poured herself another cup of tea and drank it in one gulp. She wiped her mouth and then raised her eyes and asked, "Is the little fox demon awake?"
Yin Ban'er chuckled: "Although I haven't woken up yet, I can already take you out of Youxianlu."
He opened the curtain hanging on the bed, revealing the little child inside.
The child was lying sideways on the bed, with half of his furry tail exposed outside the quilt.
Jiang Yu came closer, sat on the edge of the bed, stretched out his hand to pull the quilt up, and touched his thin shoulder, his eyes showing some pity and intolerance.
"This little demon was seriously injured. I don't know what the thing is that keeps taking away his spiritual energy. His body has been depleted for too long. Even if Youxianlu has the ability to repair his meridians, he will have to sleep for a long time."
Yin Ban'er shook his head, stood aside, and said: "He is still so young, how could these people do it?"
Jiang Yu's eyes were dark and he felt uneasy in his heart.
From childhood to now, the ones she has come into contact with the most are actually demon spirits.
Not only because the silent beast she grew up with was a wind creature, but also because her master was a great demon.
But even if Master once submitted to a famous and upright sect, many people looked down on him, and some even openly belittled him.
The master was powerless to change the current situation. Whenever he mentioned Xingyan Sect, he would only remain silent. He would be stunned for a long time before turning to talk about other things. He only talked about demons and spirits, but they were the same as humans. They had both good and bad qualities and could not be lumped together.
And after most demon hunters get started, they are trained to catch all the evil spirits, good or bad, in one go, and they want to kill them as quickly as possible.
Her abilities came from her master, the founder of the Xingyan Sect, but she was unwilling to obey the Yuling Mansion's words after coming down from the mountain, so she registered herself as a troublesome demon hunter, waiting for their orders and becoming their puppet.
The worst-case scenario is that after I find my master, I will go back to Xianyun Mountain and never come down again.
While Jiang Yu was in a daze, the little tail covered under the quilt moved quietly.
