The next day, Lu Ye and Mulan set out on the road to Lingcheng.
Mulan seemed to have confided her heart to Lu Ye last night, her face tightened along the way, and she seemed a little shy.
Obviously she had just met this guy, and he was still her nominal master, so she shouldn't be so presumptuous.
But last night, we had a brief conversation.
It wasn't until she got off the plane that Mulan held back her words, "Thank you."
Lu Ye was stunned.
Mulan's mouth moved, and finally she said: "The prescription you left for my mother."
When she was leaving, she also saw the prescription that Lu Ye left on the table.
Although she didn't know what effect the prescription had, Mulan had a vague feeling that Lu Ye would not harm her mother.
Lu Ye smiled slightly, "You're welcome, let's go."
Lu Ye said and walked forward.
Mulan was behind her, stomping her feet slightly, and then followed angrily.
As soon as they entered Lingcheng, they felt their eyes were opened.
This city looked similar to all the cities they had visited before.
There are many tall buildings and it looks prosperous.
But the two of them immediately felt something different.
Just people walking on the street.
Some people wear simple clothes or even ancient Hanfu.
Some people hold a bow and arrow in their hands, and some people carry a sword on their back.
These costumes were rare in their previous cities.
If you walk out on the road like this, you will definitely attract everyone's attention.
But here it feels like a sparse and ordinary dress, and everyone is used to it.
This is the unique charm of the city of martial arts.
According to the address given by Mu Xiaolou, the two of them soon arrived at the foot of a mountain.
At the foot of the mountain, there is only a building similar to a leisure resort.
Two people were standing at the door of the building.
But as soon as the two of them got close, they felt that there was something extraordinary inside this building.
I could only hear faint roars coming from the building.
Like an animal roaring.
If you come here in the middle of the night, you will definitely be scared to death by the roar.
Lu Ye knew that this was the Jackdaw Family.
The Jackdaw family is famous for taming animals. It is normal for animals to roar in the family.
The two of them came to the gate, and there was a plaque with four big characters on the door.
Jackdaw family.
Two gatekeepers stopped Lu Ye and Mulan, "Stop, you come to my Jackdaw Family, what do you want?"
Lu Ye and Mulan looked at each other.
Lu Ye handed over the black crescent moon jade pendant that Mu Xiaolou gave him yesterday and said, "We are here to pay homage to the head of the Jackdaw Family. This is a token."
When the two people saw the token, their expressions changed slightly, and one of them whispered to the other: "Go in and report to the head of the family!"
They seemed to recognize this token and knew its importance.
The person who stayed behind immediately said to Lu Ye politely: "You two, please wait a moment. The rules are like this, I'm really sorry."
Lu Ye nodded.
The foundation of the big family is pretty good, and the gatekeepers are not as arrogant and domineering as ordinary families.
At this moment, in a room of the Jackdaw Family.
Two people, one lying on the bed and the other sitting at the head of the bed.
The man lying on the bed looked extremely pale, but between the paleness, waves of black energy could be faintly seen.
His body was originally that of an adult.
But the muscles showed abnormal atrophy.
The whole person shrank to about 1.6 meters, and was as skinny as wood.
This man is Guo Yulin, the head of the Jackdaw Family.
Sitting at the head of the bed was a young woman who still retained her charm.
There was a trace of sadness on her face, as if she had just cried.
But when he turned his face, the sadness gradually disappeared and turned into another complex expression.
She is Guo Yulin's wife, Wu Bili.
"Lao Guo, you must hold on! The grand master is already on his way and will be here soon. As long as the grand master takes action, the poison in your body will definitely be cured."
Wu Bili looked at Guo Yulin again and said with a sigh.
Guo Yulin showed a sad smile and said: "Hey, I know the poison on my body. Even the heads of those aristocratic families are helpless against this poison. Some of them even invited the miracle doctor from the Lu family in Beiluo.
Look, there’s nothing we can do, so I think we’d better forget it.”
Wu Bili said anxiously: "Lao Guo, you must not say that. Didn't the heads of several other aristocratic families ask the grand master to see it?
Aren’t their lives extended?”
Guo Yulin shook his head and said: "Resurrection from the dead is not that simple.
The extension of my life is only for more than three months. After three months, my life will be completely settled."
Wu Bili was startled and said nothing.
Obviously, she also knew that what Guo Yulin said was true.
Guo Yulin seemed to know what Wu Bili was thinking, and suddenly said with a smile: "Bili, you have been with me for so many years, don't worry, I will not treat you and your son badly after my death. I have already written my will."
.”
Wu Bili seemed to have had her thoughts penetrated, and there was a hint of nervousness on her face, but she immediately covered it up.
"Lao Guo, I'll get angry if you say that again! I'm still looking forward to growing old with you! Nothing can happen to you!"
Wu Bili said solemnly.
"I, Guo Yulin, have been acting crazy all my life, but I have a clear conscience. However, there is always one thing that I cannot let go of until my death..." When Guo Yulin said this, he even choked up.
Wu Bili's face turned ugly on the spot. She knew what Guo Yulin was talking about! "Bili, originally I would never tell you to help me in this matter. After all, doing so would not
I am so sorry.
But now, I have no choice..." Guo Yulin saw Wu Bili's face changed drastically and said guiltily.
Wu Bili was about to speak when a voice came from the door asking for instructions.
"Master, there are two people outside the door who want to see you."
The person outside the door is the gatekeeper who came in just now to report the news.
Wu Bili suddenly became angry and shouted towards the door: "What time has it been! I wonder if the door owner needs to rest! No matter who comes, let them go back! People nowadays are becoming less and less discerning, I don't know
Is the sect master feeling unwell now?"
But the man at the door hesitated and said tremblingly: "Madam, the master of the house, my subordinates naturally know that if they are ordinary people, we will naturally persuade them to go back.
But the two people who came this time brought something, and my subordinates dare not make any arbitrary decisions."
Wu Bili became more and more annoyed and shouted: "Is there anything more important than the gatekeeper's rest! I don't think you, the gatekeeper, want to be a gatekeeper anymore, do you?"
There was a thumping sound from the door, as if someone outside the door had knelt down.
Then, the nervous voice of the gatekeeper came in again.
This time, the faces of the sect master and his wife changed drastically! "What they brought was the sect master's Jackdaw Crescent Moon Pendant."
