After the sunny day, the rain falls
The weather has been bad these past few days. The dark clouds are low, the humidity is hazy, and the light rain is as smooth as butter, covering everything outside with a gray gauze. Yue Guanchao and the others have been repairing in the Liquan Commercial Building for several days, and finally have a peaceful life. , without the potential threat of the Nuo Cult, I even slept soundly.
"I heard that the river boat has sailed to the Fujiang River, and the river is now spraying anti-venom powder. In a few days, the powder will be washed away by the water flow, and the threat here will be completely gone. Now, the only thing that is not certain is that the Witch God When will the survivors come to us? The past few days have passed, and the survivors of the Wu Kingdom have probably gotten the news. There is no movement at this time, but it makes me feel a little panicked."
Song Siyuan and the others looked outside the yard, their words full of worry.
"Don't worry, these remnants of the Wu Kingdom will definitely not be able to bear it and not find us. After the Nuo God Religion was destroyed, their plan to occupy Sichuan and Shu has been considered bankrupt. If they can bear it, then they will be my grandfather."
Before Yue Guanchao finished speaking, a shopkeeper came in from outside the yard to send a message. Sensing the danger, several people asked the shopkeeper to stay outside and let the man enter the room.
As soon as he came in, this person took off his black cloak and turned out to be a young girl.
Yue Guanchao observed carefully, he saw that this young girl looked quite like Sichuan, with delicate eyebrows and lively eyes. She was dressed in a minority dress, with two pigtails tied behind her head and a few hairpins. Her beautiful face was slightly... Publicity, a feeling of arrogance.
Yue Guanchao had an ominous premonition in his heart. This person was probably the saint who escaped.
"You still dare to show up? Are you afraid that we will report you to the official and tie you to the gallows!"
Yue Guanchao's eyes became alert and he clenched the dagger in his hand. As long as this woman dared to use force against anyone present, he would immediately respond.
The woman looked at Yue Guanchao with a slight smile in her eyebrows: "Don't worry, the Nuo God Sect has been wiped out by you. I can't stir up any big waves. It's just that someone asked me to pass on a message to you."
"who?"
"Lan Qingping!"
This name is like a stone that stirs up a thousand waves. Everyone knows that Lan Qingping is Lan Ruling's biological mother, and she has been dead for nearly ten years.
Now, I heard someone mention this name again. Everyone looked at each other with suspicion in their eyes.
"It's not possible. My mother has been dead for more than ten years, and I saw her losing her temper with my own eyes. If you dare to mention her again, I will prevent you from leaving this door."
For a moment, Lan Ruling's eyes filled with anger.
"Did you see her die with your own eyes? If she just lost her breath, our Gu clan has many ways to make people look indistinguishable from corpses. Did you throw her corpse into the fire and burn it back then?"
No one could answer the question asked by the Nuo Holy Lady. Lan Ruling gradually suppressed her anger and said hesitantly: "Back then, my mother-in-law left her last words and asked us to put her in a hanging coffin in the cave to seal the entrance. , I watched her body being sealed into the cave with my own eyes, how could she still be alive?"
"I don't believe it, do you have any evidence?"
Lan Ruling's eyes were more confused than shocked. If her mother Lan Qingping was really not dead, why did she have to fake her death?
"You want evidence, I'll give you evidence."
After saying that, the saint took out a black and white photo and handed it to Lan Ruling. She was eager to know the result and quickly took the photo and brought it to her eyes.
The person in the photo is a noble lady wearing the costumes of the Witch Kingdom. Her appearance is almost the same as that of Lan Qingping when she was young. However, as she gets older, there are inevitably wrinkles at the corners of her eyes. With the traces of time, she has a little more grace. The glamorous temperament has been much restrained.
This photo, regardless of whether it can be faked, just because Lan Qingping is wearing the clothes of the Witch Kingdom in the photo, already shows that her identity is extraordinary. Lan Ruling understands that most of what the saint in front of her says is true. Not only was her mother-in-law, Lan Qingping, not dead, she was even an important figure among the survivors of the Wu Kingdom. If not, this photo would not have been left behind.
"But if my mother-in-law is not dead, why did she contact me now?"
Although Lan Ruling was raised by an old Taoist priest with a master-disciple relationship over the years, she has always lacked the affection of her parents, making her depressed. Now, not only is she not happy to know that her mother-in-law is not dead, but her depression is even more intensified.
"If she also comes from Yinping Witchland, why on earth has she stayed in Huayuan County for more than ten years?"
This question came at the right time. The saint looked at Ren Peacock: "Back then, after Jiang Qingyu escaped from the Yinping Witchland, we had been sending people to search for her child. We were not relieved until we found her in Huayuan County. .”
"Since you found me at that time, why didn't you capture me?"
Ren Peacock had doubts in her mind, and she had to ask clearly.
The saint turned her back and explained slowly: "At that time, there was indeed a plan. However, the Jiang family had just come to power, and the chaos in the Witch Country had just been settled. There were undercurrents of forces behind it. If this child was taken back, someone would definitely borrow it. Get started."
She paused, turned around and said, "Since everything has been lost, the Witch Kingdom simply hid her whereabouts, and then sent Lan Qingping to disguise herself as a distressed witch doctor near Huayuan County, and settled down in Fenghuang Village. On the one hand, she wants to protect the child, and on the other hand, she also wants to monitor the child to ensure that the child is always under our control."
"It was also at that time that she met a foreigner and gave birth to Lan Ruling with the foreigner. It was not until she grew up successfully that Lan Qingping was recalled by her own people. In order to cover up others' eyes, she committed suicide by pretending to be in love and faked her death before she could escape. Return to the clan!”
What the Holy Lady of Nuo said was true. After listening to it, everyone couldn't help but have more questions in their hearts. Ren Peacock teased: "It's more surveillance than protection."
The saint's eyes widened when she said this, and she said strangely: "If you say that, I can't help it. You have at least half of the Jiang family's blood in your body. The Jiang family will never take action against you even if they are in power. Not to mention blood ties, you have the key to the power of the Witch God hidden in your body, and we will definitely not touch you."
Song Siyuan listened to the words of the three people fighting in the ring and interjected: "Who are you? Why don't you introduce me."
"Don't worry, sister, I originally planned to reveal my identity."
After saying that, the Nuo Gu saint coughed a few times: "My name is Wu Xuanyu, and my mother's name is Jiang Qingping. She is Jiang Qingyu's biological sister. In terms of blood relationship, we have the same mother and half father, so I still want to call you." elder sister."
After saying that, Wu Xuanyu looked at Lan Ruling.
When Yue Guanchao heard this, he no longer knew what to say. He drank some water and coughed a few times to cover up his shock.
"I'm fighting with you all because my family is trying to get me."
Yue Erpao's words are indeed true. Wu Xuanyu nodded: "Indeed, I am here today to take you back to Wu Kingdom."
Some people died, but not completely...
