The teacher and student fell into a strange silence.
They are both stubborn people, and they are all dedicated to the good of each other, so they all have their own persistence.
In the end, it was Bai Lirui who was defeated first.
He leaned back on the chair a little dejectedly, with a bit of hesitation and loss in his eyes.
"Ya'er, I regret a little bit."
He said, and looked at her with a complicated expression.
"Teacher, I feel that the most fortunate thing in my life is to have a teacher like you."
She knelt down and looked up at her teacher.
When she first came into this world, apart from Long Tianyu, only her teacher gave her the warmth like a loving father.
But now, the more she has, the more she cherishes those pure kindnesses.
Therefore, she will definitely respect the teacher's opinion, but she cannot let the teacher take care of everything for herself.
"Oh, you girl, you can fool me with your words. No matter what, in fact, you will know these things sooner or later."
After Bai Lirui sighed, he told a story from the past.
"Ever since I became sensible, I have known that the successive heads of the Gong family are all genius masters of the poison sect. But my father warned me that once there is any change in the fairy city, the first one to be destroyed is the lineage of the Gong family head.
"
This actually made her a little unexpected.
Blinking her big watery eyes, she looked at the teacher in confusion.
The latter shook his head, looking a little unnatural, but still insisted, "The top ten aristocratic families are just names for people on the ground. In fact, in addition to the Gong family and the four royal families, there are also several transcendental forces.
The family. And our lineage is called the Guardian."
In fact, she had some speculations about this matter.
Of the so-called top ten families, there are very few that can truly compete with the Immortal City.
Although the Gong family has been in decline for a period of time, it has Shi Yu and has become the nemesis of the fairy city.
All things are interdependent and mutually reinforcing.
The fairy city has been at peace with the ground for thousands of years, so why is it now showing its ambitions?
Rather, it would be better to say that the things or people that are taboo in the Immortal City are slowly dying out.
The Gong family is considered a share, so where are the others?
Now, she finally knew some secrets.
"No one can tell how old my family is. I only know that the task of each generation is to protect the head of the Gong family. Before, your grandmother suddenly left Weiguo. My father also left with her, but after losing
After hearing the news about your grandmother, we have been keeping our names anonymous and are secretly looking for news about you."
In fact, sometimes, even Bai Lirui laments the coincidence of fate. combine.
At first, he only thought that he had found a good young talent that was rare to see in a century, but he didn't expect that this person was actually the target that he had to monitor.
He suffered a lot in his heart, but in the end, he still couldn't resist his love for her.
I thought I would never mention this matter again in my life.
Unexpectedly, it is still difficult to stop the arrangement of fate.
Hearing this, Lin Mengya also felt that the teacher was joking.
"Guardian, what is that?"
Mentioning this, Bai Lirui suddenly said seriously, "The guardian is one of the guardians of the entire ground force. Originally, our family's duty was to ensure order between the ground and the fairy city. However, my family betrayed
assumed the identity of a guardian."
She had some guesses, but she wasn't sure.
Until the teacher confirmed it personally.
"That's right. The current Baili family is one of the guardians. When my father went to find your grandmother, he personally entrusted the task of guardianship to the previous head of the Baili family. However, he
Betrayed my father and colluded with Xiancheng!"
No wonder the teacher has always been unkind to the Baili family.
It's been a long time because of this reason.
"Then you don't want me to revive the poisonous sect because you're afraid that the Baili family has something about my identity that might be detrimental to me?"
"No. Regarding the mystery of the identity of the head of the Gong family, my father has never told me in detail. The reason why I want to stop you is because if you want to revive the poisonous family, you have to sign an agreement with the Baili family.
Agreement. I'm afraid it will be detrimental to you when the time comes."
"Agreement, what agreement?"
The teacher looked at her, as if she had something to hide.
Lin Mengya was not in a hurry and just looked at the other party calmly.
"The content of the agreement is that the Baili Family will plant a poison in your body that can control your heart in exchange for their protection of your identity. Do you think the Baili Family will still protect you now?
"
To control the heart, to put it bluntly, is to hand over the power of life and death into the hands of the other party.
Maybe the Baili family in the past could be trusted, but now the Baili family almost wants to kill her quickly.
How could she possibly give up her life willingly?
"Then what if, what if I don't obey?"
"In the past, as long as the head of the Gong family became a poison doctor, he had to sign this agreement with the guardian. Otherwise, the Baili family would deal with the head of the Gong family. If the head of the Gong family didn't comply, it would be regarded as rebellion.
The rebellion needs to be eliminated.”
The teacher said these things very painfully.
If their relationship was just that of a guardian and a person under surveillance, then both of them probably wouldn't feel any difficulty.
However, she is the teacher's favorite student, and the teacher is also the person she respects the most.
As a result, it will be difficult for them to treat each other with the most objective attitude.
Lin Mengya knew that the teacher did not want her to be in danger.
But the Baili family must have known these things to set a trap for her.
It's okay if she doesn't go, but if she goes, she will definitely be controlled by others.
After thinking about it, she said softly, "Teacher, why do you think that all the family heads in the past generations will definitely listen to the Baili family?"
The teacher hesitated for a moment and said, "Because the Baili family is the nemesis of the head of the Gong family. My father told me this. He said that the Gong family has no acting head. Whether it is intelligence or poison, they are the best in the world."
But our Baili family has a unique method of restraining the head of the Gong family."
Sure enough.
The heads of the Gong family in the past dynasties actually bear pressures that outsiders cannot imagine.
Not only do you have to face the fertility squeeze of the Fairy City, but even if you have talents that others don't have, you still have to be supervised by others.
However, they never dreamed that those seemingly weak women would use their intelligence to make preparations to escape their fate.
"Then, do the current Baili family know about this?"
"this"
The teacher hesitated.
"My father left in a hurry back then. Although he left everything to the current Baili family, he might not reveal the secret of dealing with the head of the Gong family."
"So, even you don't know?"
After saying this, the teacher sighed.
"I am an unfilial son. At first, my father took a deep breath and wanted to tell me about this matter, but because of Yunzhu's incident, I missed the last time I saw my father. Maybe this is the secret of my life.
There must be a certain number."
After saying that, the teacher was stunned, as if he had thought of something.
Lin Mengya looked at the teacher's stunned look and asked softly, "Teacher? Teacher? What are you thinking of?"
After a while, the teacher's face turned ugly.
"Perhaps, the meeting between me and Yunzhu was not just a romantic encounter on a snowy night."
"Oh? Why do you say that?"
The teacher sorted out what happened at the beginning and tried to explain the doubts.
"When I first met Yunzhu, my father was indeed physically It wasn't good. But when I finally got home, my father had passed away. At that time, I asked my family why they didn't tell me the news that my father was seriously ill. The servants at home said that they did give me the news.
I sent the letter, but for some reason, I didn’t get any news back. Now that I think about it, maybe my father sent me the letter, but I was not the one who received the letter."
They looked at each other and saw a bit of chill in each other's eyes.
What if Yunzhu was arranged to be with the teacher by someone thoughtful?
What if those original letters passed through Yunzhu's hands and ended up in the hands of other people?
If the teacher's father had mistakenly believed in someone when he was dying.
She couldn't help but shudder.
Could it be that there are some things that have been opened in a big net in the past, just waiting for you to throw yourself into it?
"No! You can't even go to Baili's house! If they really find out this secret, wouldn't it be very dangerous for you?"
Now, it's too late to regret.
Bai Lirui only knows that nothing will happen to his little apprentice!
"Teacher, please calm down first."
This is not the first time she has met Baili's family.
The last time they were in the temple, they had already fallen out.
But at that time, the head of the Baili family did not cause any trouble to her.
In that case, if the head of the Baili family knew his secret, he would definitely use it against him.
Absolutely not, let yourself develop until now.
Therefore, it is very possible that the head of the Baili family does not know the specific things.
So, what news did they get from the teacher's father?
"I think they may not know how to deal with me. But if I don't go, I'm afraid they will not only be detrimental to my father, but they will also come up with other ways to deal with me and the Gong family."
She thought and said.
"According to what you and my great-grandfather said, a competition between the poison and medicine sects has not happened for a long time. The Baili family should know the current strength of the poison sect better than I do, so why do they do this? It's more like
Yes, it is completely creating an opportunity and excuse for me to revive the drug sect."
Although Bai Lirui still disagrees, he will think according to her ideas.
"You mean, their target is probably not just you?"
Nodding, she continued, "Think about it, almost all the poisonous sect families are now hiding and recuperating. If someone wants to completely get rid of everyone else in the poisonous sect, what is the most convenient way?"
