That night, darkness enveloped the entire Tongling city.
An ordinary guest room in the inn.
The window opened with a "squeak" sound.
It was as if a gust of wind was blowing.
A person used an invisibility charm and was quietly coming out of the inn. Not long after, the person arrived outside the Gongsun family's mansion.
"Master Dog, there are only a few old servants left in the entire mansion." Sword Spirit said after checking.
Xie Jiuniang climbed over the wall and entered.
After walking around, I discovered it, which is quite interesting.
The entire mansion occupies a large area and is not covered by formations. It is almost like an ordinary person's mansion. This means that it is not afraid of outsiders' inspection. Perhaps the Gongsun family wanted to let people go and investigate directly.
This is what you are telling the investigators.
People really left.
When Xie Jiuniang walked around the house, she used a jade hidden charm and an invisibility charm so that ordinary people could not find her whereabouts.
After walking around, we came to the main courtyard of the mansion.
Usually the main courtyard is where direct descendants live. Entering the main room, avoiding the eyes and ears of others, took out the Time Treasure Leaf.
Entering the golden elixir stage.
The time for prediction and retrospection has become longer.
The foreseeable duration is two and a half days, which is insignificant compared to going back in time, because the longest time back can be up to two years.
It has not been a year since the Gongsun family disappeared.
Spiritual energy is input into Xiao Fei Ye, starting time retrieval.
[The bedroom was quiet and unchanged for a month. An old servant came to clean it, month by month again. Less than half a year passed, and the bedroom remained unchanged. Suddenly one day, a person came, it was Wen Zhongdao Lord. Wai,...]
Time travel interrupted.
Xie Jiuniang walked out of the Galaxy of Time with a condensed look on her face.
After going to several places, the result was the same. Wen Zhongdaojun prevented others from using the method of going back in time to find out the whereabouts of the Gongsun family, but he used magic to erase it.
Sword Spirit said regretfully: "Master Wen Zhongdao is too cautious."
"Check again!"
Tongling City is so big, Xie Jiuniang didn't believe Wen Zhongdao Lord, and every trace of it was erased from every space.
If you can't find it in the Gongsun family's mansion, isn't there another courtyard? There is also the Gongsun family's property. If it really doesn't work, you can go to the four city gates to check.
She didn't believe that when the Gongsun family left, they didn't leave through the city gate.
Than a matter of patience.
Xie Jiuniang is never in short supply.
So, she searched one place after another. After three days, she actually found out the clues and chased a group of Gongsun's children to a deep valley outside the city.
There is a hidden formation below the deep valley.
"The people from the Gongsun family are hiding outside the city, right?" Sword Spirit was very surprised.
If this is the case, many people would never think of it.
Xie Jiuniang didn't think it would be so simple for the Gongsun family to hide from the world, "Even if some people stay outside the city, it can't be all of them. Lord Wen Zhongdao has great foresight and will not keep the clan together."
Xie Jiuniang, who knew the battle strategy well, and with the help of Sword Spirit, quietly sneaked into the deep valley, perfectly avoiding the traps outside the valley and three hidden stakes.
Stepped into the valley.
After Sword Spirit's investigation, "Master guessed right, there are only a thousand people here, the one with the highest cultivation level is Jin Dan, and the youngest child is still in his infancy."
"And there are children?"
"Yes, there are children, of all ages, old and young, like a hidden family."
"We'll wait and see for a few days."
Xie Jiuniang walked inside again. I found that there was another cave in the deep valley, a paradise, and many houses built, like a big village.
Find a location that is convenient for viewing, and then hide in the turtle shell, so that it will be harder for outsiders to spot her. As the owner of the turtle shell, she could check outside at any time.
Three days in a row.
Most of the people in the valley work at sunrise and rest at sundown. Digging wells to drink, plowing fields to eat.
One person and one sword discovered that this was indeed a secluded place of the Gongsun family.
But there are only a few powerful people here, and most of them are ordinary people who are in the Qi training stage. Maybe they will be like this all their lives.
These thousands of people, the more you look at them, the more they look like they have been abandoned?
What surprised Xie Jiuniang the most.
In an independent courtyard at the end, she saw Gongsun Xue, who lived a simple life and had a mother-in-law who took care of him. Gongsun Xue was lying on a recliner, looking numb, thin, with gray hair, like an old woman.
No more high-spiritedness than before.
Xie Jiuniang was surprised but not surprised.
It is inevitable that Gongsun Xue will be abandoned by his family.
What is surprising is that Gongsun Xue will live here alone, and he is a direct blood relative. According to the nature of this family, it is useful as long as people are alive, like passing on the family line.
Divine consciousness quietly swept over Gongsun Xue's body.
Now Gongsun Xue is just a mortal, and cannot detect the late stage of Xie Jiuniang's golden elixir.
After checking, Xie Jiuniang understood, "This is another cruel person. She doesn't want to be reduced to a reproductive tool. She actually hurts herself, making it difficult to get pregnant again."
At this moment, the resentment towards Gongsun Xue in the past and present life was truly dissipated.
In this life, Gongsun Xue’s path to immortality will be cut off.
Day by day, I can only wait quietly for the day of death.
For a former genius, there is no heavier punishment than this.
Sword Spirit asked: "Are you going to take action on these little shrimps?"
"There's no point in taking action. It will only scare the grass and scare the snake." Xie Jiuniang quietly approached the small courtyard where Gongsun Xue lived, and then landed on the roof.
This location is very remote and few people move around.
Usually there is only one mother-in-law.
The golden elixir monks in the valley are in retreat. Those who have been patrolling these days are practicing Qi and building two or three foundations.
And when it gets dark, everything is silent.
Xie Jiuniang opened up a tile on the roof and sprinkled gunpowder into the house, knocking Gongsun Xue inside unconscious. The woman who was serving him was an ordinary person and passed out.
Fly into the house through the window.
Close the window again.
Here again, time travel begins.
[Gongsun Xue’s daily life remained unchanged for several days. The days that go on are the same as before, the walking dead, lifeless.
Three more months.
A man came to visit Gongsun Xue and left behind him the necessities of life.
Continue checking for a while.
Someone built this small courtyard and sent Gongsun Xue over. Among the people who appeared was Gongsun Yu.
Gong Sunyu looked at her with pity, and his words of persuasion seemed to hurt her heart, "Sister, how can you give up on yourself, how can you refuse the marriage arranged by the family?"
"Brother-in-law is a bit ugly, but his qualifications are pretty good. You are from the Gongsun family and have become a disabled person. You should take on the responsibility of passing on the family lineage. I didn't expect you to be so decisive. You would rather hurt yourself. You really I’m so disappointed in my parents!”
"If you agree, you will not be expelled from the clan."
"That's enough!" Gongsun Xue raised his eyes, his bloodshot eyes filled with deep resentment.
...]
When Xie Jiuniang saw this, she sighed: "It's so miserable!"
