Stealing the Pen: Kirin's Primordial Lotus

After several long nights on the train, Hua Yu and Zhang Qiling finally arrived at their destination - Baimagang in Tubo.

In a lama temple far away on the snowy mountains, the old lama seemed to sense something and called the young lama.

"There will be distinguished guests arriving in the next few days. Go to the village at the foot of the mountain and wait for them."

"What are the names of the two distinguished guests?"

"When you meet them, you will know it naturally."

After saying this, the old lama continued to recite scriptures. The young lama scratched his head, packed up his clothes, listened to the old lama's words, and went down the mountain to wait for the nobleman to arrive.

Hua Yu took Zhang Qiling to travel in Baimagang for a few days.

"Brother, do you know that your mother is also called Baima, and Baima is also known as Medog, which means hidden lotus in Tibetan."

“We are destined to be together.”

"Brother, no matter what happens in the future, I will always be by your side." Hua Yu held Zhang Qiling's hand and said word by word.

While they were resting in the hotel, they met a very interesting person.

"Are you two from other places?"

"I heard that the Lama Temple here is very effective, so I wanted to come and pray for the safety of my family."

Hua Yu looked at the person who suddenly appeared to stop them and made up an excuse. Zhang Qiling, who was standing by, frowned as he looked at the person who suddenly jumped out.

"You are a member of the Zhang family." Zhang Qiling felt the attraction of the blood in his body. The person opposite him had the same blood as him.

"Are you here to find that lake too?" The man opposite suddenly came to his senses.

"No, sir, I told you at the beginning that we are here to find the Lama temple." Hua Yu blocked the tall Zhang Qiling behind her and looked at the man opposite with a smile.

"Didn't you receive the letter?" The man suddenly realized something was wrong.

"This is not a place to talk. Follow me." As he spoke, the man took Hua Yu and Zhang Qiling through the streets and turned to a deserted thatched house.

"Mr. Dong, haven't you noticed over the years that the Zhang family has actually fallen apart? They have all disappeared for many years."

After Uncle Tai learned that Hua Yu and Zhang Qiling were coming to Baimagang, he quickly collected all the detailed information about Baimagang, including the Mr. Dong in front of them.

"Since you have already left the Zhang family, why are you still working for them?" Hua Yu didn't understand the man in front of her. Since he had already changed his name, why was he still carrying out his previous tasks?

"It's not that I can leave just because I say so. After staying there for a long time, obeying orders has become like engraved in my bones and has become an instinct. So, even if I leave them and change my name, I will still instinctively obey the messages they convey." Mr. Dong sighed and looked into the distance.

"They? Delivering news? What news?" Zhang Qiling suddenly realized that the man in front of him didn't seem to know that the Zhang family no longer existed.

"Yes, the news came suddenly fifteen years ago."

"But when the Zhang family was evacuating 20 years ago, they were invaded by its people and suffered countless casualties. Only less than a hundred people were left, and they retreated to Banai Village."

After Zhang Qiling returned to China, he sent people to investigate the former Zhang family. After he left, they abandoned the old Zhang family house in Changbai. Unexpectedly, they were discovered by other people halfway. In the end, only sixty or seventy people were left. They fled to Banai Village under the leadership of the elders.

Of the original sixty or seventy people, only twenty or thirty are left now. Without a leader, the remaining people have gradually integrated into the local village.

The Zhang family has completely disappeared.

"So the information I got at the beginning was..." After listening to Zhang Qiling's words, Mr. Dong realized that since the Zhang family was already busy with their own affairs at the time, why would they suddenly ask him to investigate the lake.

"Now that the Zhang family is gone, the ropes that bind you are broken, and you are free. Just like your name, the road ahead is bright and glorious." Hua Yu spoke to comfort the man who was feeling a little lost and decadent.

"But do you know how to get to the Lama Temple?"

Mr. Dong has been here for so many years and should be very familiar with the terrain here, so Hua Yu asked Mr. Dong directly.

"A few days ago, a young lama came to the lama temple. He is a disciple of Lama Deren, and he should be here to pick you up. You can just go find him, and he will take you to the lama temple." Mr. Dong calmed himself down and pointed them in the direction.

"Mr. Dong, if you encounter anything in the future, you can come to us. After all, we are all family." Hua Yu took Zhang Qiling and left the thatched hut.
