Volume 1 Open War and Conspiracy Chapter 38 A Past and a Love
Tao, the bookkeeper, was stunned for a moment, then tugged at Master's sleeve and asked uncertainly: "She...is dead?"
Mo Pu turned around and glanced inside the room, and saw that the commander was still sitting on the bed, rubbing his eyebrows. He knew that the commander was very tired from not sleeping for Cang Qingfeng these past few days. Mo Pu was afraid that his loud voice would disturb him, so he simply dismissed the commander.
Shutao sat down on the stone bench under the peach tree, and then told the truth everything that had happened in Cangqing Peak in recent days, and finally said: "In just a few days, Cangqing Peak has lost more than 20,000 elite soldiers.
The commander accidentally killed Huang Ying again, and he must feel bad. Tao'er, please restrain your temper from now on, and don't make the commander angry no matter what happens, do you understand?"
Guan Shutao curled her lips, but could not finish a sentence. She had always found Huang Ying annoying, but now when her master told the story of Huang Ying and He Ying, she felt very uncomfortable for no reason, and she accidentally got wet.
Eye socket.
Because he had misunderstood and slandered Huang Ying, Guan Shutao felt that he was a little sorry for her, so he walked to the urn and squatted down, whispering: "I'm sorry! It was my fault before, I said a lot of slanderous words about you.
, but don’t worry, since the people who are trying to harm you are here for Cang Qing Peak, Brother Haoyue will definitely not sit idly by and ignore it. After Brother Haoyue kills his enemy, I will personally bring his head to pay homage to you.
You can go in peace!"
The afternoon in March was sunny and windy, and the paths and gardens were full of red flowers and green willows, full of spring. Even the breeze that came in the face carried a refreshing fragrance. Guan Shutao smelled the fragrance of the flowers and apologized to Huang Ying in person.
After feeling a little relieved, he stood up and let out a long sigh, then suddenly remembered that Fan Zhi once said that Huang Ying was Ming Yechen, and instinctively pointed the finger at Ming Yechen.
"Master, you always tell me that Ming Yechen is the Lord of Cangqing Peak and ask me to respect him. But such a big thing has happened to Cangqing Peak, and this delicate and noble Lord has never done it until now.
Show up. As long as he is a man of flesh and blood, he should not let his 20,000 elite soldiers become food for monsters. Such a person is not worthy of being the Lord of Cangqing Peak, let alone your love for him."
Guan Shutao had been hating Ming Yechen for a day or two, so she turned around and complained to her master. Unexpectedly, before the master could reply, a little bird rushed towards her, opened its mouth and pecked at the center of her eyebrows. Guan Shutao was caught off guard.
He was so startled by it that he even forgot to fight back with his whip. He just instinctively moved back to avoid it. As soon as he retreated, he ran into the arms of a man.
The ghost Bailing stopped in mid-air and coquettishly said in its milky little voice: "Master, she was the one who made the rude remarks first. It shouldn't be too much for me to eat her soul, right?"
The people beside him didn't say anything, but the colorful ice crystal bird became unhappy and turned around and flew to the peach tree. Tao Pei, the bookkeeper, suddenly remembered that the person he had just spoken rudely to was Ming Yechen, and when he saw that his master had already respectfully left,
He knelt on one knee respectfully, and then he realized that the person holding him was most likely Ming Yechen.
His mind was buzzing, and although Shutao looked slightly sideways, he only dared to take a brief look. After all, the person behind the scenes was not very honorable.
But just this glance gave Guan Shutao a sense of familiarity, so he looked sideways at him again. Unexpectedly, the other person withdrew his arm and strode into the small building. Guan Shutao still wanted to follow him.
Looking to see what was going on, Mo Pu grabbed him and lowered his voice: "Tao'er, don't mess around, he is Lord Ming."
"Master, you haven't seen him, how can you tell that he is Mingzun?" Guan Shutao was not fooling around. She just saw that the man was wearing a silver wolf mask, and she suddenly remembered that when she was a thousand years old, she had an older brother.
He gave himself a silver wolf mask. Guan Shutao urgently wanted to know whether the mysterious man wearing the silver wolf mask was his elder brother whom he had not seen again for three thousand years.
Mo Pu didn't know what she was thinking, so he replied to her: "The commander has repeatedly told Cang Qing Peak that when they see a mysterious man wearing a black robe and a silver wolf mask, they must bow their heads and salute, because he is Cang Qing Peak."
The Lord of Qingfeng.”
"What if you recognize the wrong person?"
"How is that possible? Cang Qing Peak is not accessible to ordinary people without permission."
Seeing his master's confident appearance, Guan Shutao couldn't believe that a group of monsters had destroyed the barrier on Cangqing Peak. It was obvious that the barrier was not indestructible. Instead, he turned around and ran towards the small building while his master was not paying attention.
Mo Pu wanted to stop him loudly, but when he thought that his loud voice might make Ming Zun displeased, he had no choice but to follow in silently.
Guan Shutao hid behind the screen and looked into the inner room. He saw his father and Brother Haoyue standing respectfully in a corner of the room, while the mysterious man wearing a silver wolf mask bit his index finger and reached out to reach between He Ying's eyebrows.
, there was a faint spiritual power on the fingertips sent to He Ying's body. After a while, he pulled back his index finger, and he was lucky enough to slap He Ying from the air. Eight cherry blossom petals emerged from his palm, quietly.
Landing on He Ying's cheek, the petals seemed to be given life and went straight into He Ying's skin.
After a moment, He Ying returned to his original appearance, and the wooden piles and branches lying on the bed began to change. They were a pair of strong and strong arms, and a pair of slender but not slender hands. He Ying slowly opened his eyes.
, but closed it again because it was not used to the light in the room.
Dugu Hao and Guan Xinrong, one out of guilt and the other out of surprise, both hoped that He Ying would get better soon. But after waiting for a long time and not seeing He Ying open his eyes again, Dugu Hao couldn't hold back his anger and wanted to speak.
He asked Ming Zun, but before he could say anything, Ming Zun stood up and said: "He Ying's main soul and seven souls have returned to their places, but because the main soul has been growing in the tomb that has never seen the light of day, it is a bit strange.
He is too adapted to the outside environment, and he will wake up after some time."
When he said this, his unfathomable eyes were looking at the screen where Guan Shutao was hiding. Guan Shutao looked at him unexpectedly, feeling guilty, and fled out of the house.
There was conversation in the room, and it seemed that Ming Yechen was asking about the whole story of the monster incident at Cangqing Peak. Guan Shutao didn't listen any more, and turned around and went back to his boudoir.
In a hurry, she rummaged through the boxes and cabinets, and finally found a wooden box in the secret compartment beside the bed. Although the wooden box was a bit old, it was tightly locked with a small solid gold lock.
Guan Shutao was anxious to find out what was going on. He wished he could just use a knife to split the wooden box open, but he was afraid that he would break the precious mask hidden in the wooden box because he could not control his strength well.
For three thousand years, Guan Shutao has kept it within her reach. But over time, she forgot about the existence of the Silver Wolf Mask, and naturally also forgot where the key to this small box was hidden. So she got messy again.
I rummaged through it all, and my clothes and bedding were thrown all over the floor. I didn't know it, but I thought there was a thief in the house.
When the maid Ye'er saw that the eldest lady had returned, she hurriedly stepped forward to greet her and asked her what she was looking for.
Tao, the bookkeeper, responded without looking back: "Ye'er, have you ever seen a golden key, the one in the small box?"
"No, no, slave and eldest lady, let's look for it together!" Ye'er has served the eldest lady for more than three thousand years and knows that the eldest lady has a bad temper. If she can't find the key, she will definitely smash the table and the tea set to make herself angry.
, so I had to look for him with her in a panic.
The two of them searched for nearly two hours, but found nothing. Until night fell and the evening wind blew, they suddenly heard the sound of bells.
The sound was not as crisp as other bells, as if the small iron beads inside had been replaced by other objects. Ye'er was the first to react, pointing to the small bell hanging on the bed tent and asked: "Miss, do you think it is?"
that?"
Guan Shutao stared at the little bell swinging back and forth, and his memory was suddenly brought back to his childhood.
At that time, Guan Shutao was less than a hundred years old, and her appearance and mind were equivalent to those of a three- or four-year-old baby in the mortal world. One day, she was too lazy to practice kung fu, so she ran to the lake at the foot of the mountain alone and took off her shoes.
, I want to go to the lake to catch fish.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he stepped into the water, a big, fat leech emerged from the water. As soon as the big leech shook its head, Guan Shutao was swallowed by it. It was an elder brother who killed the leech in time and saved her.
come out.
The eldest brother had neither a sword nor a sharp weapon in his hand. Xiao Shutao didn't know what he used to kill the big monster. He only thought that he looked very good-looking in his white clothes with fairy aura.
Because she was stained with mucus from the leech's belly, little Shutao was dirty and sticky, so her elder brother used magic to change her into clean clothes and made an agreement with her not to tell anyone else about their meeting.
, and promised her that as long as she kept her promise, he would visit her once a year in the future.
Saving people is not a shameful thing. Xiao Shutao doesn't understand why her elder brother doesn't want others to know, but she thinks it would be fun to have a secret. In addition, she likes this good-looking elder brother very much and hopes that he can do it in the future.
I often come to see myself, so I nodded and agreed.
After the older and younger two people signed a seal by the lake, the younger Shutao abided by the agreement and did not mention it to anyone. The elder brother was also very trustworthy and would come to Cangqing Peak to see her once a year.
, and every time I come, I will bring a variety of snacks or toys.
But as little Shutao grew up day by day, the number of visits between his elder brother and his elder brother became less and less. The last time he came was the night before Guan Shutao's thousand-year-old coming-of-age ceremony. At that time, the elder brother gave her a pair of
Silver Wolf Mask, and told her: "I'm leaving. If one day, you and I have a chance to meet again, I will definitely help you fulfill your wish."
Guan Shutao cried and begged not to let him go, but he still left resolutely and never looked back. Guan Shutao threw the mask to the ground in anger and raised his foot to crush it, but she couldn't bear it, so she went again
Picked up the mask, put it in a wooden box, locked it and put it in a secret compartment, then removed the bell above the bed tent, replaced the iron beads in the middle with a gold key, and hung it on the bed
Above my head, I try to see the adult gift that my big brother has given me every day in a way that is within my reach.
When she woke up the next day, Guan Shutao's memory was a little blurry. She remembered that there was an elder brother who treated her very well, but she forgot his appearance.
It was on that day that Dugu Hao gave her the headwind whip as a birthday gift. Guan Shutao was so satisfied that she subconsciously overlapped the figures of her eldest brother and brother Haoyue. For fear of losing, she always
Do everything you can to please him.
However, Dugu Hao was always hot and cold towards her, so Guan Shutao became suspicious and her temper became worse and worse. Now, even the maid who serves her is extremely afraid of her.
Recalling this, Guan Shutao suddenly smiled foolishly. She knew that her disordered memory was most likely caused by her elder brother, but she still couldn't suppress her inner desire to see him again.
