Peerless Protégé [Rebirth]

"It can be seen from the influx of other people in the mountain town that this plan has been planned 50 years ago. Up to now, they have exposed themselves again and again, which shows that the plan has almost been completed."

Luo Jiening looked at Zhong Zhili's side face, and said: "Xuantianlou's current strength is not as good as Wuchenxuan's, so we're back. Now, the strength of the two factions will be balanced."

Zhong Zhili said: "Not only that, I'm afraid we won't be able to defeat it, even the sword manual map can be generously given to us."

Luo Jiening said: "Perhaps after realizing the imbalance, Li Zhan and Ren Huaiyu came back, but they were not included in Wuchenxuan. In this way, the balance became unstable again." He paused, and then said, "Nan Wang's death, perhaps it is really hard to speculate."

Zhong Zhili looked at him and said, "If they find out, I'll remember it too, maybe they'll jump the wall in a hurry."

"No, wait," Luo Jiening said with a frown, "You may mess up their plans if you expose them too early, and you don't know what will happen then."

The conversation between the two came to an abrupt end here.The next day, the two asked another waiter in the inn for questioning, but they still couldn't ask anything substantive. The two immediately decided to go back to Fu Ling Bay, and the most urgent task was to unravel the sentence left by Nan Wang.

When grandpa was wearing a flowery skirt, my sister's father was hiding in the grass.

In the evening, Luo Jiening leaned against the window lattice and sighed: "I want to break my head, and I don't know what he wants to express."

Zhong Zhili shook his head slowly and said, "This grandfather, if it wasn't what we saw, could it be Nan Wang's grandfather when he was studying in Biyun Mansion?"

Luo Jiening supported his head and said wearily: "I heard that older doctors have more experience, but I haven't seen many people who can be called grandpas in Biyun Mansion."

"Let's all retire." Zhong Zhili thought for a while and said, "Could it be senior or something?"

Luo Jiening said leisurely: "If you want to talk about seniors, there are too many. Do you want to ask Zhang Wanyi one by one? Besides, even if you find grandpa, can you explain what the flowery skirt means?"

Zhong Zhili retorted: "If it is written bluntly, wouldn't everyone already know where it is, so why call it a code?"

Luo Jiening laughed and said, "Well, you're right."

Seeing his expression, Zhong Zhili immediately fell silent and lowered his head in thought.Luo Jiening turned his head and looked out the window.At dusk, there is a large area of ​​sunset glow in the west, reflecting a bright red sky.At this moment, there were not many people on the street, and a few hawkers who closed the stalls walked past here and there.The two rows of trees on the street cast mottled shadows on the ground, and they are connected together, creating a somewhat uneven beauty.

Luo Jiening looked comfortably at the golden light to the west gradually disappearing behind the mountain, and heaved a long sigh of relief, but he always felt that something was missing.

"Tell me, does the floral skirt refer to something?"

Suddenly Zhong Zhili's voice came from next to his ear, Luo Jiening's heart was suddenly filled with something, his whole body was warm and soft, he turned his head, and gave Zhong Zhili a nice smile.

Zhong Zhili raised his eyes and saw that this person was bathed in the twilight, his whole body was glittering with golden light, he was very pretty, and his heart skipped another beat.Seeing this person staring blankly at him, Luo Jiening knew that the temptation had succeeded, and said with a smile, "What are you looking at?"

Zhong Zhili walked to the window lattice, looked out, and said, "What's there to see outside?"

Luo Jiening followed his gaze, and suddenly seemed to have discovered something, quickly grabbed his arm, and said, "What kind of grandfather are you talking about?"

Zhong Zhili looked puzzled, and said, "What grandpa?"

Luo Jiening asked anxiously: "What does grandpa mean?"

Zhong Zhili didn't realize what he meant at all, and asked with a blank face: "What?"

Luo Jiening jumped down from the window sill all of a sudden, leaned behind him and said, "Look at the shadow of that tree."

As soon as Zhong Zhili pointed him out, he immediately understood what he meant, and asked, "The flowery skirt you mentioned, do you mean the shadow of the tree?"

Luo Jiening nodded and said, "That's right, doesn't it look like it?"

Zhong Zhili looked at the mottled tree shadows on the street again, his heart gradually became clear, and he said, "Somewhat similar."

Luo Jiening said again: "There are many trees in the middle of Biyun Mansion, if it is really the shadow of a tree, then Grandpa can't really be a living person, he probably can't move."

Zhong Zhili asked: "You mean, would the people from Biyun Mansion bury the dead in the center of the sect?"

Luo Jiening shook his head and said: "No, no, if the dead are buried, how could Nan Wang know? Could it be some kind of house?"

After finishing speaking, Luo Jiening immediately took out the map of Fu Ling Bay that he had drawn before, and the two of them looked down at the map.Zhong Zhili said: "If there is a shadow of a tree, then it must not be a shadow facing south."

He pointed to the pharmacy in the southwest and said: "Although the person in charge of the pharmacy is old, he has not yet reached the level of grandpa. The northwest is the residence of their disciples, and the north is the ancestral hall. Could it be here?"

Luo Jiening hesitated and said: "We haven't been in their ancestral halls, but our ancestral halls usually have portraits of previous headmen hanging there. Does this count as grandpa?"

Zhong Zhili said: "If their ancestral hall has provided portraits, when will the shadow of the tree shine over there?"

"If it's the tree in the east, it's probably before noon; if it's the tree in the west, it's afternoon." Luo Jiening paused, and said, "Let's see what happens next."

My sister's father is hiding in the grass.

"Sister's father, let's talk about him as Tieguan Li for the time being. What does it mean that he is hiding in the grass?"

Zhong Zhili thought for a while, and said, "What if we also use shadows to explain it?"

Luo Jiening said: "Is there any shadow in the grass? An iron rod?"

Zhong Zhili asked, "Could it be something like a stick?"

The two were quiet, and then Luo Jiening asked, "Are there two big pillars in front of the ancestral hall?"

The two looked at each other for a long time, neither of them said anything.

The next day, the two headed to Fuling Bay.

As soon as the two arrived, they immediately went to the ancestral hall.Before Zhang Wanyi had time to entertain the two, Luo Jiening had already arrived at the entrance of the ancestral hall first.The ancestral hall was extremely simple, with two large pillars in front supporting the vestibule, the two gates were open, and a stone statue was built inside.

Luo Jiening turned to look at Zhong Zhili, and asked, "Could it be this stone statue?"

Zhong Zhili nodded, then turned to the back and saw that evergreen shrubs were planted around the ancestral hall, and two rows of trees were planted on both sides of a road leading to the ancestral hall.

It was early morning and the sun was in the east.Luo Jiening simply climbed up the tree and said, "Let's wait a while, maybe we can see it."

Zhong Zhili stood under the tree and replied, "Yes."

One of them was on the tree and the other was under the tree, waiting for the sun to slowly move from east to southeast.Luo Jiening spoke first: "Zhong Xiao, do you remember why you came to me at that time?"

Zhong Zhili didn't need to ask to know exactly when he asked, so he was silent for a while, and said, "I don't remember."

Luo Jiening grinned and said, "At that time, you made me so mad."

Zhong Zhili didn't respond to him, Luo Jiening continued: "I also specially asked Zhou Dan to take care of you, and I'm glad you were injured and couldn't come, otherwise, wouldn't even you be buried together. Who knows, I As soon as you think about it, you're here."

Zhong Zhili looked at the green hills in the distance, but remained silent.Luo Jiening waited for a while, but before he got an answer, he said to himself again: "Why are you so stupid, knowing that you are going to die, you still want to come here?"

Seeing that Zhong Zhili still had no intention of speaking, Luo Jiening simply jumped down, stood opposite him, looked at his expressionless face, squatted down, faced him face to face, and asked, "Why don't you speak?" ah?"

Zhong Zhili lowered his head, not intending to speak at all.Luo Jiening was baffled in his heart, thinking that he might have brought back bad memories and made him sad, so he immediately changed his tone and said with a smile: "Fortunately, if you hadn't died then, we wouldn't be able to meet now. "

It's better not to say this.

Zhong Zhili only raised his eyes and glanced at him, then turned his face away, not even wanting to look at him anymore.Luo Jiening felt a little aggrieved, leaned in front of him, and said, "Zhong Xiao Zhong Xiao, why are you ignoring me?"

Zhong Zhili stood up with a bang, and said, "It's almost there."

Luo Jiening looked towards the ancestral hall, and the shadow of the tree had really arrived in front of the stone statue, and the mottled shadow was faintly indistinct on the stone statue, it really looked like he was wearing a flowery skirt.Luo Jiening still wanted to talk to Zhong Zhili, but when he turned around, no one was there.

Luo Jiening was still puzzled in his heart, and took a few steps back, only to see that Zhong Zhili had already reached the west side of the ancestral hall.Luo Jiening hurriedly followed, looked at the grass, and really saw the shadow cast by the pillar on the west side in front of the ancestral hall into the grass.

Luo Jiening pulled Zhong Zhili's sleeve excitedly, and said, "This is it!"

Zhong Zhili nodded, pushed aside the bushes, and walked in.

Luo Jiening carefully gestured at the position, and the shadow on the top of the bamboo was almost in the middle of the bushes. Without thinking, he pulled Zhong Zhili over.

Zhong Zhili looked at him strangely, and asked, "Why?"

Luo Jiening smiled and said, "Your clothes will get dirty, I'll do it."

After all, before Zhong Zhili could reply, he had already walked into the bushes.
