Baiyun Hidden Sword [Lu Xiaofeng + Sword III]

The further you go in, the bigger the island feels.

Ye Linghan once thought that Feixian Island should be the most suitable for survival among the many islands in the South China Sea, but now when he set foot on this island to see the situation clearly, he realized his naivety.

If it wasn't for being surrounded by the sea, she would even think that she had stepped back through time and space and returned to Qingyan Wanhua Valley in the prosperous Tang Dynasty.

Also surprised was Ye Gucheng, the two of them exchanged a look and decided to go inside.

"Do you know the owner here?"

Ye Gucheng shook his head, "I've never been here before."

"Then the Nanhai Xie family you mentioned just now, is it still your ass?" She had an expression that was not so coincidental.

He shook his head again, "This family has lived in seclusion in the South China Sea for a long time. I have never been here but I have heard of it."

Although the island is big, there are almost no people there. The two of them walked in for half an hour before seeing a few small houses. During this period, they saw nothing but flowers and plants all over the field.

She really didn't think that there is such a paradise in the South China Sea, she just looked around and compared this place with Qingyan Wanhua in her heart.

Outside the house at the end of the flower field, there is a young woman who is drying clothes. She moves quickly and skillfully. From a distance, she seems to blend in with the light pink flower sea, which is quite beautiful.

But when the woman's eyes came into contact with the two of them, she only paused briefly, without even a hint of curiosity on her face.

This attitude was almost the same as that of the man in Tsing Yi he met before. Ye Linghan finally realized that the other party was not contemptuous, but really didn't care about outsiders' footsteps.

She knew that Ye Gucheng was not good at dealing with people proactively, so she tugged at his sleeve to make him back up, "I'll ask."

"...how do you ask?"

"We are looking for someone, let's try to ask someone who is about the same age first?" She tilted her head and recalled the young woman Ye Gucheng once described. go forward.

"Girl, my junior brother and I want to find someone in the South China Sea. The girl has lived in the South China Sea for a long time. Have you ever met him?"

The woman who finished drying her clothes turned her head away when she heard the words, "Our family has never cared about world affairs, you have found the wrong place."

"Miss, maybe someone else has seen it before. I wonder if Miss can show us the way?" Ye Linghan asked and looked around. There should be people living in the houses next to the house. You can see the herbs in the sun.

The woman didn't hesitate, she pointed in the direction, "The patriarch is there."

After that, she lowered her head and went to do her own thing again. Ye Linghan wanted to ask something more, but she had already taken the medicine basket under the eaves and entered the house.

Her expression didn't change a bit from beginning to end.

"Go and see?"

"Of course I have to take a look, don't you think this island is a bit evil?" Ye Linghan stared at the closed door for a long time, and finally could only come to this conclusion.

Ye Gucheng didn't object to her opinion, and if he had to say something, he really felt that it was very evil.

"Let's go."

When passing the two houses along the path in front of the house, no one else was seen. In front of the door of the last house was an old man who was picking herbs, dressed in white.

It's the kind of white clothes that don't even have a style. If you describe it, it probably looks like a piece of white cloth is wrapped around your body, but it doesn't make people feel strange.

"Senior, I came here with my junior brother..."

"Don't make a sound." The old man didn't raise his head, his expression focused.

Ye Linghan couldn't help being curious, and leaned over to look at the grass in front of him, a little puzzled, then pushed Ye Gucheng with his elbow, "What... is this doing?"

The old man in white pursed his lips and slowly reached out to dig the soil from the root of the herb, his movements were extremely careful, as if if he accidentally touched a little bit, it would kill him.

After finally picking it up, Ye Linghan asked again, "Senior, I..."

"Are you looking for someone?"

She was a little surprised that he returned so quickly this time, and nodded immediately, "Yes, it is said that senior has lived in the South China Sea for a long time, so he may meet the person I am looking for."

The old man stroked his beard, but it was still useless to look at her. After a while, he turned to Ye Gucheng who had not spoken, "Are you from Feixian Island?"

"We are indeed from Feixian Island." Ye Linghan was quite surprised.

Unexpectedly, he waved his hand again, "I'm not talking about you, but about him. You lived in Feixian Island for a few days at most."

Even this was all guessed, Ye Linghan couldn't help but glanced at Ye Gucheng, it was clearly written in his eyes - it really is wicked.

In fact, Ye Gucheng didn't know why the other party could recognize his origin at a glance, it was clear that the man in the blue shirt and the woman before him didn't know him at all.

"He has the spirit of Feixian Island, but you don't."

"gas?"

"The qi in every place is different, and ordinary people like you naturally don't understand it."

These words were arrogant and ugly, but there was no pride in the words, as if they were describing the facts as it should be taken for granted.

"Who are you looking for? Little old man, no one has set foot in this place for more than ten years. For the sake of Feixian Island, I will help you."

What he said was because of Feixian Island's face, not Baiyun City Lord's face, obviously he didn't know that the person in front of him was the owner of Feixian Island.

Ye Linghan hesitated for a moment, "I want to find a nun."

"Taoist nun?" The old man didn't stop arranging the herbs in his hands, and continued to lower his head, "If you are looking for a monk, you should go to Wudang Mountain. Why do you come to the South China Sea?"

She wanted to describe it in more detail, but was stopped by Ye Gucheng, "Did a young woman bring a boy here more than ten years ago?"

The old man paused for a moment, as if he was thinking about it, "There is such a thing."

Although Ye Linghan wondered why Ye Gucheng said he was bringing a child, he did not interrupt the conversation between the two of them quite sensibly.

"Where is that woman now?"

Before he could answer, there was a sudden scream from the next room, and Ye Linghan was so frightened that he almost couldn't hold the light sword in his hand.

It took a while for the voice to stop, and the young woman I met earlier also turned around and pushed open the door, pulling out a disheveled middle-aged man.

The middle-aged man was holding a large medicine mortar in his hand, with a joyful expression, "Uncle, I have made that medicine!"

The old man was not that excited, he just nodded, "Got it."

"I will definitely succeed this time! I will become an immortal just around the corner!"

Ye Linghan was quite frightened by this sentence, subconsciously took a step back, and turned to look at Ye Gucheng after he realized it. Although it was not obvious, his brows were full of surprise.

"By the way, who are these two?"

"...We are from Feixian Island."

The man's indifferent expression changed, "From Feixian Island?"

As soon as he finished speaking, he seemed to have remembered something quite funny, and laughed loudly, "So it's from Feixian Island, this is really a distinguished guest, Uncle."

No matter how you look at this family, Ye Linghan felt a little nervous, and tugged at the sleeves of the person next to him, "Do you know Junior Brother?"

Ye Gucheng shook his head, looked back at the old man who was still arranging herbs, "Where is the woman we mentioned just now?"

"I don't know, she only stayed on the island for a few days before leaving."

"That child?"

"Of course she took him away. She said she would take him as a disciple." The old man squinted his eyes and looked him up and down. "What is your relationship with the master of Feixian Island?"

"...I am the owner of Feixian Island."

"Your surname is Ye?"

"Yes."

The atmosphere suddenly became weird after this short conversation. After laughing, the middle-aged man and the old man showed quite subtle expressions after hearing Ye Gucheng's confession.

Ye Linghan didn't know the inside story, and just felt the bad premonition in his heart became more and more obvious based on his intuition.

She wasn't worried about the safety of the two of them. None of the four people on the island she met along the way was skilled, and they were all ordinary people with frivolous steps. But the more they were like this, the stronger the feeling of uneasiness.

"More than ten years ago, a girl brought my grandson here and said that my daughter and son-in-law died in Longmen, that's it."

The old man didn't blink his eyes when he talked about this incident, as if the death of his daughter was nothing to him.

The middle-aged man laughed, "I said that Ah Shuang shouldn't marry that man, it's true."

"...Did she mention where she would go?" Ye Linghan asked again.

"No mention."

"Then which direction did she go when she left...?" After asking, she felt that this was almost a useless question. The place is surrounded by the sea, and after more than ten years, the sea of ​​people is vast. Where can I find it.

"She went to Feixian Island."

Ye Linghan suddenly realized that Ye Gucheng should be the Chunyang disciple he met at that time, and then learned the trick of Jiuxi Miyan.

"...What about the grandson of the senior? Hasn't he been back for so many years?"

"Why are you coming back?"

"...No...Isn't it your grandson?" She was a little puzzled, "...Could it be that there is no contact at all?"

The old man nodded, still taking it for granted, "Of course it never happened."

The moment he finished speaking, the middle-aged man who had been sizing up Ye Gucheng suddenly turned pale and fell to the ground uncontrollably.

Even such a loud noise did not stop the old man from arranging the herbs in his hand, and put the one in his hand before turning his head, "Failed?"

The appearance of the unkempt man rolling on the ground was extremely frightening, his face turned from pale to red, and he kept screaming, as if in extreme pain.

Ye Linghan wanted to see what was going on with him, but was held back by Ye Gucheng, "...dangerous."

"……How is this going?"

The old man in white picked up a piece of white cloth and threw it over, "He failed in refining medicine, and his meridians are disordered."

"...don't save him?"

"Life is a matter of life and death, it cannot be saved."

She was completely shocked by the indifferent tone of this matter, and was about to step forward, but Ye Gucheng didn't let go, "You can't save it."

"No matter how good your kung fu is, it won't save you, let alone your external kung fu."

The person covered by the white cloth gradually stopped struggling, and when he stopped completely, the old man put down the medicine basket again and walked over to lift the cloth, his expression remained unchanged during the whole process, and he was quite indifferent, "No one can make it. "

"……what?"

"It's nothing." He paused, "The person you're looking for isn't here, so take care of yourself."

The old man flexed his fingers and blew, and several people came out of the room behind. They didn't have any special reaction when they saw the corpse on the ground, they just bowed to him, "Patriarch."

"Bury it in the flower field."

"Yes, patriarch."

Ye Linghan, who had witnessed the whole process, couldn't speak a word, the panic in his eyes couldn't be more obvious, his right hand was still being pulled by Ye Gucheng, and now he had no intention of breaking away, and even felt his legs were a little weak.

It's not that she has never been on the battlefield and never seen a dead person, but it was the first time she saw such a cold family member in her life. Even she, an outsider, couldn't bear it. They didn't respond at all, let alone sadness.

... I have never seen such a sick person, and it is still a family of one sick and one sick.

"For Feixian Island's sake, I've said everything I can. If you two have nothing else to do, please leave my Xie family as soon as possible."

"Wait." Ye Gucheng called out to the old man who was about to turn around, "That child, what's his name?"

The old man thought about it for a while, but his tone was still so flat, "Ximen Chuuxue."
