The skylight came in through the old casement windows, and the iron bars left vertical and elongated shadows on the ground, and the light from the corners scattered on Zhong Yuncong's bunk, He was in a daze, and when he opened his eyes, he saw countless dust particles that were about to move, sinking and floating in the beam of light.

Such a situation inexplicably made people feel warm and comfortable, and Zhong Yun thought he had returned home from a trance.

"Aren't you up yet? You have already missed the morning training." Su Xian's voice sounded low, but it woke him up from the dream, and he got up suddenly: "No wonder the sun is out...why didn't you call me?!"

Su Xian sat on the opposite bed, with his long legs crossed casually, one hand resting on his knee to support one cheekbone, and he looked at him leisurely: "I see you tossed and turned in the middle of the night before closing your eyes and falling asleep I kept talking in my sleep, and I didn't calm down until early in the morning, because I was afraid that you would not be energetic the next day, so I didn't call you."

Zhong Yuncong was startled, and then laughed: "Thank you... But if I am beaten by Instructor Huo later, you have to intercede for me."

Su Xian shook his head: "If I intercede for you, you may be punished more severely."

"..." What he said made sense, but Zhong Yuncong was speechless.

He jumped out of bed neatly, stretched his waist, stretched his sore muscles, and then put on his coat: "Then I'm going to wash up!"

Su Xian nodded, and after watching him walk out of the dormitory door, he turned to look at the motionless little girl: "Tell me, what happened to his father?"

Yingying opened her eyes and stared at him with a smile: "Did you guess it?"

Zhong Yuncong did get information about his father from Yingying. Logically speaking, no matter if it was good news or bad news, he should share it with him as soon as possible. He is not a calm temperament at all.But from last night until now, he didn't intend to mention it to him. Su Xian knew that the situation might not be that simple.

"Since you know what you know, why don't you ask him?" Yingying asked knowingly, but Su Xian was not in the mood to play riddles with her, and leaned back lazily: "It's the same for asking you."

There was a little anger on the girl's face, but the other party didn't take her displeasure into consideration at all. Yingying tilted her head and observed him for a moment, her face that was tense a second ago burst into bloom, smiling like a flower: "You don't care about Daozu!" , I am Yurou, if you ask me to say it, then I have no choice but to say it."

Su Xian glanced at the half-closed door: "Then hurry up."

No matter whether Zhong Yuncong didn't want to or didn't dare to tell him, since he didn't tell him, he wouldn't force him either.

The same goes for another way.

"It seems that you don't want him to know, well, I'll make a long story short." Yingying smiled sweetly, her tone suddenly sank, "Zhong Yuncong's father is not a good guy, he is related to our 'Shadow', He has a very close relationship with that woman named Zhu Ci."

She paused as she spoke, and deliberately emphasized certain words: "They are all in the same group."

After she finished speaking, she laughed loudly, with obvious viciousness in her laughter: "Now you know why he didn't dare to tell you?"

Su Xian's face was indifferent, and he didn't respond to her provocation, but turned his head away, and said lightly: "I see, you can shut up now."

Yingying took a deep look at him, the look was meaningful, Su Xian turned a blind eye to it, but the bottom of her heart was full of waves.

She still has the most important thing to say--Zhong's father's identity is complicated, so what about Zhong himself?

In fact, Su Xian already had a premonition that there were traces of Zhong Yuncong's connection with the "isolated island" from the very beginning, and he was not surprised to hear this news.

As for Zhong's background and origin, he didn't take it to heart. On the contrary, he was worried that he would dig into a dead end.

In fact, there is indeed such a sign—if it weren't for this, he wouldn't be so preoccupied that he couldn't sleep all night.

He was restless, panicked, and confused, Su Xian could tell, but he didn't know how to comfort him.

When Zhong Yuncong came back, Su Xian was pacing back and forth in the room, he was a little surprised, thinking something was wrong: "What's wrong?"

"I've been working all night, I'm not feeling strong, so get up and walk around."

He looked as usual, with a slight smile on his lips, which made Zhong Yuncong feel relieved. He walked over and patted Su Xian on the shoulder lightly: "Do you want to wash your face or something? The prisoner, I will help you." on."

Su Xian glanced at the peaceful-looking little girl, still hesitating, Zhong Yun pulled out the dagger from his waist, and pressed it against Yingying's neck: "Is it at ease now?"

Su Xian couldn't help laughing: "Okay, then I will trouble you."

He stretched his stiff neck, and staying up all night is not without sequelae, he really needs to wash his face with cold water to wake up.

Zhong Yuncong felt helpless: "There's no need to be so polite between us, right?"

Su Xian glanced at the silent Yingying, coughed lightly, then said "um", and then left, not knowing what that meant.

After Zhong Yuncong finished muttering, Su Xian had already gone out. He switched the dagger from another hand, Yingying opened his eyes, and smiled at him: "Why, are you afraid of me?"

"I'm afraid, I'm terribly afraid." Zhong Yuncong smiled lazily, "I caught you with great difficulty, so you can't be a moth."

The little girl rolled her eyes, showing a bit of playfulness and childishness at her age: "Speaking of which, you don't seem to be very concerned about your father's whereabouts."

Zhong Yuncong's smile faded away, and his voice was flat: "I don't need to bother you about this matter."

He was not in a relaxed mood. Of course he wanted to find Lao Zhong as soon as possible. Before, he was simply worried about his safety, but now he was somewhat contradictory—he had many questions he wanted to ask his father.

But the problem now is that Zhu Ci is dead, the clues are broken again, and he has returned to the situation where he has no way to start.

how should I do it?

Zhong Yun has no clue, but he knows that if he stays in the training camp all the time, he will definitely never find it.

Find a way to get out of the training camp temporarily.

It's just that he thought about it, but he couldn't come up with any suitable solution. It seemed that there was only one way left—abandon the next training, and wholeheartedly track down the whereabouts of Lao Zhong.

He didn't want to give up halfway, but he had no other choice.

Even though he had made up his mind, Zhong Yuncong still had a headache. It was impossible to hide the fact of leaving the training camp from Su Xian. If he asked, what kind of explanation should he give him?

He is emotionally unwilling to believe that Lao Zhong is a bad person, but his rationality tells him that it is not impossible.

There are many such examples, Jiang Qiyan and Ren Yan are both, they may be good brothers and fathers, but they really cannot be included in the scope of good people.

This kind of thought made Zhong Yuncong feel very guilty, but it still couldn't offset his fear. Even though everything was still uncertain, the shadow lay in his heart, which was enough to make him feel scared.

It is precisely because of this that he doesn't want Su Xian to know—if Lao Zhong is innocent, he doesn't want him to know that he once maliciously speculated about his father; It is impossible to face Su Xian.

Zhong Yuncong was in a state of confusion, and suddenly heard Yingying's voice: "Brother Yun, Su Xian said that my biological father is dead, do you believe it?"

Zhong Yuncong was being annoyed, and he didn't think Su Xian would lie, so his tone became a little impatient: "He didn't even deny that this is your biological father's identity, why bother to lie about it? Don't think too much about it. gone."

The girl chuckled: "Did I think too much? It seems that you really haven't thought much about this problem."

Zhong Yuncong only felt a splitting headache: "I don't even have time to think about my own father, how can I have time to think about other people's father?"

"Of course you want to." Yingying's face turned serious, "Because that person may also have something to do with you."

Zhong Yun subconsciously jumped out from the sentence "What does it have to do with me", but after meeting the other party's half-smiling eyes, he suddenly stopped talking.

In fact, he and Su Xian had discussed this issue a long time ago.

Yingying's mother is an ordinary person, and as a product of the "Tree of Life", her supernatural powers are probably inherited from her father.

Her ability is space teleportation.

In this way, it means that her father is likely to have the same ability.

As for the Administrative Bureau, there was indeed a sheriff with spatial abilities.

But according to Su Xian, the sheriff, who was suspected to be Yingying's biological father, had passed away for many years.

Originally, he firmly believed in this statement, but at this moment, he was quietly shaken.

He did not forget how he got into the "isolated island".

If that person is really dead, who sent himself in?

His suspicious eyes fell on Yingying, who seemed to have expected it, and smiled slightly: "Don't look at me, if I had that ability, I would have gone out a long time ago, why bother to do so much?"

That sounds... makes sense.

Zhong Yun was silent.

With the facts in front of him, he admitted that he was moved by Yingying and leaned towards the possibility that her biological father was still alive.

But he still didn't believe that Su Xian would lie to him in this matter. In this case, there are only two options left - either Zong Zhengzheng lied to Su Xian, or the magistrate faked his death back then, and the method was superb. Fooled everyone.

"Believe it?" Yingying watched his words and expressions, and saw a series of reactions in his eyes. Zhong Yun never said a word, but from his expression, he acquiesced.

"I'm really more and more interested in you."

Yingying added with a smile, Zhong Yuncong has a creepy feeling, being targeted by someone like her is definitely not a good thing.

Unexpectedly, the little girl intensified and continued to scare her: "I'm afraid that in this 'isolated island', not one or two people are interested in you."

Zhong Yun's face sank like water, and he looked at her for a moment, then suddenly picked up the previous cloth strip, and covered her eyes again.

"Zhong Yuncong! I told you I wouldn't run away! Don't cover my eyes!"

He ignored her protest, and kept his eyes on the direction of the door. Not long after, Su Xian walked in refreshed with drops of water on his face.

He took a glance and was blocked by his eyes again, raising half of his brows: "What? She's making trouble again?"

Yingying snorted coldly: "I didn't!"

Zhong Yuncong also shook his head, Su Xian was worried, and came over to check Yingying's condition, then turned sideways but was turned away unexpectedly.

Immediately afterwards, the corner of her lips was tapped lightly.

Su Xian looked at someone who was smiling as if nothing had happened, and finally understood why the little girl was blindfolded.

"You're leaving, right?" Zhong Yuncong waved to him, "Goodbye!"

Su Xian sighed, and suddenly pulled the person over. Zhong Yuncong's heartbeat was beating, and when he thought he was going to do something inappropriate again, he clung to his ear.

Only they could hear Su Xian's voice clearly.

"You stay here with peace of mind. I'll help you find out about your father's whereabouts."
