"Have you ever seen Dean Xing Shuangshuang?" Walking through the avenue of "Chaoge City" again, Li Danqing and Luo An'an were used to the hateful-looking pedestrians on both sides.
Luo An'an suddenly asked. Li Danqing shook his head and said, "I don't know, I guess you didn't come in? We also looked at the inn just now, and there was no one else there. Maybe we are the only ones here this time."
We’ve arrived at this damn place.”
Luo An'an nodded and did not delve into the matter. Xing Shuangshuang's behavior when he came in was strange. Even Luo An'an could feel that the other party seemed to be obstructing them from continuing to investigate the matter intentionally or unintentionally. At this moment, the other party was not there, but less
an uncertain factor.
Luo An'an thought of this and raised his head to look at the sky. He didn't know whether this world only had daytime or whether day and night were opposite. The two times he came here were in the night of Sihai City, but here it happened to be daytime. But
Although it is said to be daytime, one cannot feel the bright sunshine of summer at all.
Perhaps due to a different state of mind, Luo An'an, who came here again, was not as surprised as before by the change of scene and the strange pedestrians on the street. Instead, he calmed down and carefully observed some details.
Under the sunshine, everything in the city is still gray and gloomy, as if there is an invisible barrier above the city, blocking the bright sunshine from outside and preventing it from reaching this world.
etc!
Thinking of this, Luo Anan suddenly felt a chill in his heart, as if he remembered something.
She turned her head to look at Li Danqing, and saw that Li Danqing also lowered his head and looked at her.
"Do you think this place is very similar to Fenglai College?" Li Danqing asked first.
Luo An'an, who also realized this, nodded heavily. Just now, she felt strange that this so-called "Chaoge City" gave her a very familiar feeling. When Li Danqing said this, it was completely different from what she was thinking.
Conspiring together.
"That's true." Luo An'an nodded. This weird place is indeed very similar to Fenglai Academy.
"Then how will the dean plan to investigate the secrets of this place?" Luo Anan asked again.
Although she was extremely touched by Li Danqing's willingness to get involved here for her, the matter still seemed to have many difficulties. At least for a while, Luo Anan couldn't figure out where to start.
Li Danqing also frowned when he heard this. He really didn't have a particularly good way for a while and was thinking about it secretly.
"Lan'er!"
"Lan'er! You'll be fine! Just hold on! Master Cheng will definitely come back today! Father will find nectar for you!"
A heartbreaking cry of pain suddenly came from the street corner. Li Danqing and Luo An'an both looked back and saw a living dead man in tattered clothes holding a petite figure in the street.
He was running wildly on the road, and the little skeleton in his arms was looking sluggish. The green will-o'-the-wisps in the sunken eyes were appearing and disappearing, and a skeleton arm hanging feebly outside his clothes also became a little hollow and transparent, and seemed to be extinguished at any time.
generally.
Li Danqing keenly saw that the guy holding the little skeleton was missing a phalange on his left index finger.
"It's Fangzhou County Chronicle!" Li Danqing suddenly woke up and hurried forward with Luo An'an.
"What happened?" Li Danqing asked immediately.
Fangzhou Junzhi, who was running on the street with his daughter in his arms, ran into Li Danqing and Li Danqing who were coming towards him. He was stunned for a moment, and then recognized the two of them. A burning light suddenly bloomed in his eyes despite the will-o'-the-wisps, as if they were
As if grasping the last straw, the drowning man looked at Luo An with excitement and said: "Save my daughter! Save her!"
Luo Anan was at a loss for a moment when faced with Fangzhou County Magistrate's almost hysterical plea. She said: "I...how should I save her?"
"Nectar! You are the Taoist! There must be nectar on your body! Just one drop! Just one drop! You can save my daughter! Please!" Fangzhou County Sheriff said this, and put the dying little skeleton in his arms.
He fell to the ground, and then began to kowtow to Luo Anan and plead.
…
Los Angeles.
In fact, in Luo Anan's eyes, he is not a perfect father.
Before she was ten years old, Luo Cheng had been working in the White Wolf Army, guarding the borders far away, and often only saw her once a year. Her mother understood her father very well, and often told Luo An'an that his father was fighting for millions of people.
Being able to live and work in peace and contentment is a great hero.
But for a child, how can he understand this.
She only knew that other people's children were accompanied by their fathers. During the Lantern Festival, they could sit on their father's shoulders and parade through the streets to watch the lanterns. During the Hunting Festival, they could ride on their father's horses and gallop through the dense forests. During the New Year's Eve, they could still be taken care of by their fathers.
Set off fireworks and firecrackers...
But she has never experienced any of this.
Most of the time, she spends time with her mother, practicing martial arts, spiritual cultivation, and studying.
Luo Anan's mother Ye Ling.
She was a very quiet woman, born into a scholarly family. The city lord where she was at that time coveted the Ye family's property and colluded with thieves to kill the youngest members of her family. Ye Ling fled to Wuyang City alone.
Although she was the only one left in the family and was wandering alone, the tough-minded Ye Ling did not think about how to survive. On the first day she came to Wuyang City, she knelt outside the Shenyu Palace, wanting to defend her family members who died unjustly.
Seek justice.
But at that time, the late emperor was seriously ill, and the court was busy fighting for the throne. The battle between several vassal princes and Ji Qi for the right to inherit the heir was in full swing, and the dog official who killed Ye Ling's parents happened to be the confidant of a powerful vassal king.
Cousin, no one in the court dared to offend him, and naturally he was unwilling to take over this hot potato. Ye Ling knelt outside the Shenyu Palace for three consecutive days, and no one bothered to ask. If he wanted to enter the Shenyu Palace, then
It’s even more a fantasy.
After many days of sleeplessness, coupled with the despair welling up in her heart, this stubborn girl fainted and died outside Shenyu Palace.
When she woke up again, she was already at home in Los Angeles.
The following story is somewhat cliché,
The young man who had just assumed the position of governor and had a bright future, under great pressure, investigated the matter thoroughly and brought the dog official and the culprit to justice. Ye Ling later married the young man.
When Luo Anan was a child, she often asked her mother whether she married her father out of gratitude or love.
But every time at this time, the woman always smiled slightly, touched Luo Anan's head and said.
"Not every story has to have vigorous love and hate. Sometimes you choose a person just because you feel at ease when you are around him, and that's enough."
…
There is no doubt that Ye Ling is telling the truth.
Even though she and Luo Cheng spent less and less time together in the following years, she never complained at all.
Compared with her father, Ye Ling is definitely a perfect mother.
She taught Luo An'an how to read and calligraphy, and hired martial arts instructors for her. During those ten years, Ye Ling filled the gap in Luo An'an's heart without her father's company.
But the good times didn't last long. When Luo An'an was ten years old, Luo An'an and her mother fell seriously ill. The mother and daughter soon became terminally ill. Rumors spread that the two had contracted the plague, and the servants in the house avoided them.
It was not enough, and there was no response for a while to the letters sent to the border. At first, Ye Ling could still support herself and take care of Luo An'an, but later she also fell ill.
When Luocheng galloped tens of thousands of miles all the way back to Wuyang City, what was waiting for him was Ye Ling's cold body and the dying Luo An'an.
He brought Li Mulin's handwriting. At that time, Li Mulin was in full swing in the Wuyang Dynasty. With his handwriting, even the imperial doctors in the palace had to come to treat Luo An'an. But even the doctors in Taixue Pavilion had to come to treat Luo An'an.
Ji Xuanhu, the medical master who is in charge of Baicaotang, is also helpless about Luo An'an's condition. He only thinks that Luo An'an's meridians are atrophied and cannot be cured by medicine and stone. Only the old gods of Bailong Mountain may have a way to save him.
But even if the emperor wanted to see someone like Wei Yangguan, he might not be able to see him, not to mention that he in Luocheng was just an inconspicuous commander under the White Wolf Army.
But he went to Luocheng anyway. He carried Luo An'an on his back and took three horses with him, all the way to the foot of Bailong Mountain under the stars and the moon.
The disciples guarding the gate refused to let him in, so he took Luo Anan to live outside the gate of Bailong Mountain. He would lick his face and talk to every disciple who passed by, asking for their help in introducing him.
In fact, Luo Cheng is not a person who is good at this. His many years of military career have made him accustomed to being straightforward and unsmiling most of the time. But for Luo An'an and for his dead wife, he has a smile on his face.
With a smile that he was not good at, he groveled and begged over and over again to everyone who could give him even a little hope.
That kind of hysteria, that kind of powerlessness but desperately trying to give it all...
It is exactly the same as the Fangzhou County Chronicle in front of me.
…
Luo Anan clenched her fists, looking at the terrifying Fangzhou County Magistrate in front of her, she secretly told herself in her heart.
