The woman's eyes were confused, with a look of sorrow, "You are here for that jade pendant, too. Ten years ago, the Cen Yin sect gathered the elders and disciples of the sect to attack my city of mist. There were countless casualties in my city of mist, but Cen Yin was also killed." The sect uprooted me. My poor husband was knocked off the cliff by the elders of the Cen Yin sect. When he was dying, he pushed open the stone gate of the city lord's mausoleum and hid me inside."

She sat down on the stool slumped and said quietly: "I blame myself for trusting her too much." The woman turned to look at Su Qiuyue, her eyes full of hatred, and her scarred face looked even more terrifying because of its distortion.

"Have you ever tasted the feeling of being betrayed by the person you are closest to? My biological sister lied to my husband to reveal the secret of the jade pendant, and colluded with the Cen Yin faction to attack the hometown where she was born and raised. Now she is even more powerful and has unlimited glory. And I, trapped in this dark place, would be worse off than dead. Haha, how ridiculous!"

Su Qiuyue's mind was spinning rapidly. Several keywords appeared in her mind. Her husband died ten years ago. Could it be...

"Who are you, Gu Chaoxuan?"

"Gu Chaoxuan? Are you talking about Xuan'er? How is he? Is he okay? Has he endured hardships outside?" The woman asked eagerly with tears in her eyes.

"He is very good. He misses his father and mother very much. He even sneaked out of the City of Mist to find his mother."

"My Xuan'er, I can't help you, I'm trapped here, I can't help myself!" The woman covered her face and cried bitterly.

"Ma'am, I can get you out of here."

The woman raised her scarred face with a look of hope: "Can you really take me out?"

"That's natural, as long as you tell me the clues about the peach blossom jade pendant." Su Qiuyue said.

The woman nodded and said: "That jade pendant was lost in the fight with the Cen Yin faction. I suspect that someone from the Cen Yin faction secretly snatched it away."

"Madam, do you know the origin of the Peach Blossom Jade Pendant?"

"This jade pendant was brought here by our people when they moved here. My ancestors from Mist City are descendants of the royal family of the Liang Kingdom. Our ancestor's grandma is the eldest princess of Daliang. She brought the peach blossom jade pendant here.

After the grandma of the ancestor died, the Peach Blossom Jade Pendant was buried with her in the City Lord's Mausoleum. Who would have thought that the Cen Yin Sect knew that our clan had this jade pendant, so they sent their disciples to sneak into the City Lord's Mausoleum and steal the jade pendant. Later, our elders discovered it and took it back. Jade pendant. However, those thieves did not give up and used all their strength to attack our city, and the jade pendant was lost in that battle. "

"Then do you know what secret is hidden in that jade pendant?"

The woman shook her head: "I don't know, my husband is the previous city lord. There are no secrets between the two of us. He has never told me about this jade pendant. We are also very puzzled. There are so many treasures in our city of fog. Why? But the Cen Yin faction wanted that piece of jade pendant, and they even went out of their way to do it."

Su Qiuyue saw that the woman was sincere and didn't look like she was lying, so she comforted her: "The loss of the jade pendant will only bring benefits to the city of fog, but no harm. Let's go out first."

"Okay," the woman said, moving a ladder. The ladder looked very crude, as if it would fall apart as soon as she stepped on it. The woman pressed a hidden mechanism on the mountain wall and heard a click. A large hole was exposed in the rock formation above the pool. The woman put the ladder at the entrance of the hole and was about to climb up when Ye and Qin Yan jumped down.

When Yoruichi saw the woman with a face full of scars, his eyes were sharp and he grabbed the woman's throat with his hands. The woman was caught off guard and looked horrified. Su Qiuyue quickly grabbed Ye's arm and said, "Xiaoye, she is not a bad person, let her go." Only then did Ye let go of her hand, and the woman coughed violently.

"Aunt Su, what's going on?"

"This lady is the wife of the former city lord, and Gu Chaoxuan is her son." Su Qiuyue explained.

"I see, isn't Gu Chaoxuan's mother missing? Why is she here?"

"It's a long story..." Su Qiuyue told everything she knew.

Qin Yan and Ye also sighed secretly after hearing this.

Qin Yan asked curiously: "Mrs. Gu, what do you do for a living after living here for so many years?" Mrs. Gu said: "There are fish in this pool. When I am hungry, I eat fish or pick some wild fruits and leaves to satisfy my hunger. Later, I planted some edible vegetables and plants by the waterhole, and I survived these years without freezing or starving to death."

Su Qiuyue said with admiration: "Mrs. Gu is really amazing. If I had been trapped in these ten years, I would have gone crazy."

Mrs. Gu smiled miserably and said: "If it wasn't for seeing my Xuan'er, if I wasn't trying to avenge my dead husband and my dead people, how could I have survived until now? Fortunately, I didn't suffer this in vain, and I can finally go out. .”

Su Qiuyue sighed and said, "Let's go up first and then talk." After saying that, she climbed up the ladder first, but this ladder was really old. As soon as Su Qiuyue climbed into the air, who knew that the wood broke? Yue stepped on the air and fell down. Fortunately, Ye Yan was quick and quick, and he hugged Su Qiu Yue. He used Qing Gong to take Su Qiu Yue to the tomb above. Qin Yan also flew up with Mrs. Gu.

As soon as she arrived at the tomb, Mrs. Gu saw Gu Chaoxuan lying on the ground, who looked exactly like her husband. She hugged Gu Chaoxuan and burst into tears. Su Qiuyue felt very sad when she saw this scene.

While crying, Gu Chaoxuan slowly opened his eyes. When he saw the scarred woman in front of him, he took a few steps back in fright: "Who are you?" "Xuan'er, I am your mother!"

"You're talking nonsense, why is my mother here?"

Mrs. Gu wanted to step forward to say something more, but Su Qiuyue said first: "Gu Chaoxuan, this is probably really your biological mother." After hearing what Su Qiuyue said, Gu Chaoxuan relaxed and looked at it carefully. The woman in front of me.

"Xuan'er, I am Liang Xiaoyun, my husband is Gu Kaipeng, and you are our child!" Gu Chaoxuan looked at the person in front of him steadily, with confusion in his eyes. Seeing that Gu Chaoxuan still didn't believe it, Liang Xiaoyun said gently: "Xuan'er, you have three moles on your back and a scar on your arm. They were caused by you being playful and accidentally falling when you were a child. Your favorite thing was to eat your mother when you were a child. I made celery and egg dumplings and shredded chicken with scallion oil. When I was a kid, I couldn’t get enough of the spicy food..." Liang Xiaoyun kept talking, her eyes turning red.

The more Gu Chaoxuan listened, the more relaxed he felt. When he heard the woman in front of him say that she would definitely give back the child she had given to her brother-in-law in this life, Gu Chaoxuan couldn't hold it any longer. He threw himself into Liang Xiaoyun's arms and burst into tears. .

"Mom, do you know that I have been waiting for you to come back every day. They all said that you were missing and that you were dead. I didn't believe it. I looked for you everywhere. Mom, I didn't even know that you were in the tomb of the city lord. ah."

This situation made the listeners sad and the listeners shed tears. Although Su Qiuyue was not a soft-hearted person, she still couldn't help but shed two tears when she saw the scene where mother and son recognized each other.
