"Aunt Xue Bin said she wanted to go to the South of Caiyun because the person she likes is there." Xiaobai said, "She has said it several times, South of the Caiyun, what kind of place is that?"
"The good name of Yunnan." Su Bai said: "I am also in Yunnan. Hey, Bai Moxuan, this can't be just a simple coincidence."
Bai Moxuan closed his eyes, and he needed to review the cause and effect in detail: "What happened before has nothing to do with Xue Bin. Ye Changqing said that when he met Xue Bin, she was already dead, and only her soul remained.
, so he had selfish motives to arrest her soul. This was just an accident, so the matter can start from the encounter between Xue Bin and Grandpa Su Bai."
Bai Chang's expression changed slightly. Listening to the story of the man she loved deeply and another woman was simply torture. However, in order to find the man who faked his death, she had to endure the torture in her heart. Bai Ling held her mother's hand and said,
Silently providing support, Bai Chang felt relieved that he still had two strong backings, his daughter and grandson.
"Judging from the time, Aunt Xue Bin and Grandpa Su Bai should have met earlier than grandma." Bai Moxuan said: "Qingqiu Classical History records the time when Aunt Xue Bin ran away, which was three years before grandma got married."
Bai Chang breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. If time had been arranged, at least he would not have stepped on both sides. Bai Moxuan glanced at Bai Chang's expression and said: "In the past three years, there are two things worth paying attention to.
In an incident, Aunt Xuebin stole the fox relic. According to Yiyu, she claimed to be trying to save the man she loved, so we have to look at it separately again."
Su Bai's expression was solemn: "Whether she voluntarily stole the fox relic for love, or was instigated by others, this directly determines my grandfather's character, doesn't it?"
Bai Moxuan said coldly: "That's right."
"I'll go ahead and forget it. Anyway, he has no character in my heart," Suber said helplessly: "You can continue to analyze."
"The second thing is that Xue Bin ran away for love, but unfortunately died suddenly." Bai Moxuan said: "Although we are nine-tailed foxes and have a long lifespan, not everyone lives a long life. There are many factors that can lead to death. Moreover, she was in a state of panic.
At that time, something in her eyes made me very concerned. Her death is definitely worthy of further investigation. Since Xiaobai said that Aunt Xuebin said she wanted to go to Caiyunnan, we can go there and have a look."
Bai Moxuan said: "Three years later, Grandpa Su Bai appeared in the imperial capital, met and married my grandmother, but suddenly disappeared. When he came back, there was only a corpse. Later, Su Bai discovered that grandpa's coffin was empty.
Therefore, we make a bold guess that grandpa faked his death. The reason why he faked his death is unknown, but he did abandon his wife and daughter."
"Now, the aroma of corpse-scented konjac has been found in Aunt Xuebin's room, and in the recent Khitan treasure incident, the woman who pretended to be Cha Qianmo had also taken the corpse-scented konjac powder." Bai Moxuan said.
: "What concerns us is whether there is any connection between these two things. Secondly, my family is also in Yunnan, and Xue Bin also went to Yunnan. Are these two things connected?"
The more Subai listened, the more ominous he felt. Thinking more deeply about Bai Moxuan's words, didn't he suspect that his grandfather was the mastermind behind the robbery of the Khitan treasure? He stood up: "This is easy to say, let's go and do it ourselves."
Don't we have the contact information of Sixth Brother, Cha Qianmo and the others there? Grandma, do you want to come with us?"
Bai Chang closed his eyes and said, "Of course."
Xiaobai pulled Bai Moxuan's finger: "Shuai Patriarch, where are you going? Can I come with you?"
"No." Bai Moxuan said: "But you have more important things to do. Aunt Xuexiang and Aunt Xuefan will teach you a lot of knowledge about Qingqiu and help you practice systematically. You said you would
Become the clan leader, right?"
Xiaobai blinked and said, "Well, if you let me do it, I will do it."
Subai burst out laughing: "Hey, Xiaobai, you are too naive. Do you know how many years it will take for this old patriarch to abdicate?"
Xiao Bai immediately hugged Bai Moxuan's neck. This question was too mature. He didn't know how to answer, so he subconsciously asked Bai Moxuan for help. Bai Moxuan groaned: "How quickly I abdicate depends on you, little guy.
You have so much ability, so stay here well, don’t run around, and listen to your two aunts, you know?"
"Roger, handsome patriarch!" Xiaobai is actually a child, but he just believes in Bai Moxuan's words. He likes the smell of Bai Moxuan very much. He always wants to get close to this patriarch, he smells like his father.
The decision was made, Bai Chang left immediately, and Bai Ling chased him out: "Mom, let's go home for a meal tonight."
"No, I want to go up the mountain to see the Taoist priest." Bai Chang said, "I don't know what's going on. I want to tell him these things."
Bai Ling fully understood that since her mother knew that she was Ruoniang in her previous life, and that the Taoist Master was the King of Hell who opened the door to her in his previous life, her mother's attitude had undergone some subtle changes. Although she was as obsessed with finding her father as always, there was already a trace of emotion in her heart.
After hesitating, Bai Ling was delighted that her mother had changed so much and urged, "In that case, go up to the mountain early. It's getting dark now."
Standing outside the small courtyard, Bai Chang hesitated a little. Just as he was about to turn around and leave, the door was opened: "Why don't you come in now? How long are you going to stand there?"
Bai Chang was so strong that he couldn't help but retorted: "Since you knew I was coming, why didn't you open the door?"
"I was thinking that you must be very hesitant to see me, that's why you haven't knocked on the door." Taoist priest Xuanxu said with a smile: "It's my fault, I like to guess your thoughts too much."
Bai Chang stared at the Taoist priest's face and thought of what the King of Hell said. He and this man had been destined for many lives, but they had missed each other. He felt sad. This is how fate tricks people. The Taoist priest stepped aside and said, "Go in."
Bar."
Seeing two cups of hot tea placed on the simple table, Bai Chang felt warm in his heart: "The tea is ready."
"Since you haven't left, of course I have to express that this is the tea I picked myself." The Taoist asked Bai Chang to sit down: "It's getting late, why did you come here at this time?"
Bai Chang took a sip of tea and explained everything in detail. He didn't mention a word about the past lives of the two of them. The focus was still on the betrayed person. After listening, the Taoist priest was like a sculpture, and his body didn't sway at all. Bai Chang
Chang felt a little regretful: "Are you angry?"
"How long are you going to be persistent?" The Taoist Master's empty sleeves swayed: "I have a bad feeling."
Bai Chang said: "After learning about the time when Xue Bin left Qingqiu, I rekindled hope in my heart. At least he didn't have two boats. Maybe he had unspeakable difficulties."
The Taoist priest's face was frozen there. The tea in the cup cooled extremely quickly. After a few sips, it stopped steaming, just like his own heart. For a long time, neither of them said a word. Bai Chang sipped it tightly.
He licked his lips and stood up slowly: "I'm really crazy. I came here and said so many things to you."
The Taoist priest sighed: "You are beginning to struggle in your heart whether to continue looking for him, but what you learned today fills you with expectations and solidifies your original plan. You will still continue to look for him."
"I'm sorry..." Bai Chang said, "I have thought about giving up, really."
"Stop talking." The Taoist priest waved his hand: "It's getting late, you should go down the mountain quickly.
The Taoist priest turned around resolutely and looked at his thin back. Tears welled up in Bai Chang's eyes: "I am such a stubborn person. I may have hope, or I may be doomed, but you have to believe me, you are me too.
The most important person in my life, I will remember all your efforts in my heart. I am stubborn, but I also have a conscience. Wait for me. I will come to you again after I come back from Yunnan. It is getting late, so you should go to bed early.
I’m leaving first.”
After Bai Chang left, the Taoist Master turned around, picked up the teacup on the table, and said with a wry smile: "You must think I deserve it."
"I dare not think so." In the corner, a white-faced man suddenly appeared, it was the current King of Hell in the Netherworld!
The Taoist Master said: "You had known that I, like Wu Xian, remember my original identity, but I have been watching calmly. What is your purpose?"
"Even if you, like Wu Xian, have used methods to remember your original identity, you are fundamentally different from him. You have no ambitions. You are just trying to protect your feelings." The white-faced man hesitated. This reason seemed to be
Not enough to convince this man who was once the King of Hell.
Sure enough, the Taoist priest said: "Things are not that simple. Is there trouble in the Netherworld?"
"This..." The King of Hell said, "I'm afraid only the young man named Su Bai can help us. Taoist priest, the palace servant already knows about your previous life with him..."
"Are you trying to win over me?" the Taoist Master said: "For so many lives, you people in the Netherworld have been watching me closely, lest I would go too far. I have been careful not to conflict with you in my life. I am not Wu Xian.
, I have no big desire, I just want to protect her."
"We all know this." The King of Hell said, "That's why I told Su Bai and Bai Chang the truth to give you a boost. Unfortunately, one step was missing, and Bai Chang regained his confidence."
"She has such a temper." The Taoist priest said: "I thank you for your efforts, but the result is not very good. She still has to find her husband, and there is no usable information in the Netherworld, right?"
"That person is very mysterious. There is no record of him in the Netherworld." The King of Hell said.
"Just tell the truth, what's the problem in the Netherworld?" the Taoist priest said: "Your majestic King of Hell actually came to find the previous King of Hell who has been reincarnated for who knows how many lives."
"Um..." The King of Hell asked, "I wonder if the Taoist Master still remembers the ingredients of the medicine he took back then?"
"Are you referring to the medicine invented by Wu Xian to counteract Meng Po Decoction?" The Taoist priest shook his head: "I only know that it contains Bianhua flower. With all due respect, if you want to restore this medicine, it is basically impossible."
"It's a pity that Wu Xian is dead." The King of Hell was infinitely annoyed: "Things have developed beyond our imagination. If you make one wrong step, things will get out of control. Apart from you and Wu Xian, there seems to be someone who has used this medicine.
.”
The Taoist Master's heart was moved, and an idea came to mind, but there was no evidence, so he did not dare to assert it. He just said: "Can't this person be found in the Netherworld?"
