Renew

In the main hall, Zhou Qinglin stared at Rongli for a long time, turned his eyes until his eyes were sore, turned his eyes away for a long time, let out a long breath, closed his eyes and said: "It's finally It's been so long, I thought you were her at first glance."

Rong Li pursed her lips and thought for a long time, thinking about how to speak without being too abrupt. She had never seen Dan Xuan since she was born, and Dan Xuan also kept the things in her heart secret. Logically speaking, she should never know that Zhou Qinglin yes.

Zhou Qinglin was unable to speak for a long time, his eyes were closed tightly, his hands were placed on his forehead, his chest heaved and heaved, as if it was difficult to accept.

Shan Dong and Lin Que didn't open their mouths either, they just sat there quietly, their worries hard to hide.

Rong Li stood in front of the door, with his back to the light, his expression was indifferent, as if he didn't care about it.She is thin and lonely, and the appearance of falling in the wind is really distressing, like flying catkins, like clouds, like flying fairies from other worlds.

Hua Su stood still with her arms folded, she didn't tease her, she just glanced at Chang Rongli quietly, thinking about the girl's expression.

Rong Li said suddenly: "I heard that there was a visitor to the house, and that it was an adult surnamed Zhou, so I came here myself. I hope that Lord Zhou and grandparents will forgive me."

Shan Dong saw that she was very reserved, so he beckoned, "Come and sit here."

Rong Li walked over and sat beside him, holding the cuffs tightly with the hand hanging by his side, "It's a pity to say, Mother left when she gave birth to me, and I couldn't see her, so it wasn't because of her I heard Master Zhou's name from my mouth."

Zhou Qinglin opened his eyes, his eyes were red, such a handsome old man seemed to be about to cry, "I once sent someone to send a letter to Qi An, but I don't know if the letter has reached her, and during When I received her letter, everything was fine, but the paper was a little wrinkled, as if it had been soaked in water, and now that I think about it, I don’t know if it was water or tears that fell on it.”

When he was in Rong's mansion, Rong Li left in a hurry. Before he had time to ask the old housekeeper, did Dan Xuan leave any relics behind, or did the mansion still have letters that had not been handed over to her? There is no way to know what has passed, but it has not been discarded and burned.

Rong Li lowered her eyes, and looked at Shandong and Lin Que quietly from the corner of her eye. She didn't dare to say how bad Danxuan's life in Qi'an was, she was afraid that Shandong and Lin Que would be angry. He was so angry that he didn't know what to do.

She thought about it and said: "I have seen some letters in the house that I will not be able to pass on in the future, some were written to my grandparents, and some were written to others. Among them was Mr. Zhou's name, but unfortunately I didn't remember it when I left the house. Bring it on."

"It's reasonable and well-founded." Hua Su said something casually, but he didn't tease him, which was very strange.

Rong Li said again: "It's my father who forbids her to send messages outside, and also doesn't allow her to go out of the house. She is not in good health, perhaps because she is afraid that others will disturb her, and even guests come to the house..."

She paused, and looked at Zhou Qinglin, "I won't allow her to take another look."

Hearing this way, it doesn't sound like caring, but like confinement.

Zhou Qinglin's lips parted, like a stick in his throat.

Lin Que's complexion changed suddenly, and his breath became anxious. He thought that if he spoke more seriously, he would pass out, "Why didn't you mention this before?"

Rong Li whispered: "I'm afraid grandma and grandpa will be angry."

Shan Dong raised his eyebrows coldly, "Rong Changting, how dare he do that?"

Rongli continued: "Mother said in the letter that when she was in the imperial city earlier, she couldn't help herself, and she would not be able to see Mr. Zhou again in the future. She felt sorry, and later she always hoped to see Mr. Zhou again, so she said this in person. Explain the reason why you can't keep the promise."

Zhou Qinglin's eyes were already red. After listening, a line of tears flowed from his eyes, and he stared straight at a certain place, his eyes seemed to be distracted, "She can't help herself..."

The four words "I can't help myself" pierced Lin Que's heart like a spear/spear. She took a breath, and suddenly grabbed Rongli's hand, "When the Shan family fell to that point, you and I Grandpa was already struggling in the imperial city, and at that time, the young man of the Rong family said that he could help the Shan family, so we asked Dan Xuan if he wanted to go with him, Dan Xuan..."

She stuttered and said: "I forgot about Danxuan... She is always sensible, so how could she say no, your grandfather and I agreed to this marriage, and married her to Qi An."

Zhou Qinglin was unable to speak for a while.

Shan Dong was also silent.

Rong Li raised his eyes, his gaze quietly fell on these people present, the hand hanging by his side slowly clenched the corner of the skirt, and said slowly: "There is one more thing, I don't know if I should say it or not."

"Li'er just open your mouth," Lin Que said.

Rong Li thought about it and said: "I heard from the old housekeeper of the Rong Mansion that the Shan family's fall to that point was inseparable from Rong Changting. He deliberately caused the Shan family to lose their goods in order to drag the Shan family into the quagmire. Just to find an excuse, I will... my mother is leaving."

As soon as these words came out, not only Shan Dong and Lin Que, but even Zhou Qinglin were taken aback.

Shan Dong hoarsely said: "Is this true?"

Rong Li shook his head and said in a low voice: "The old butler told me. I don't know how true it is."

Shan Dong tightly squeezed the teacup at hand, the veins on the back of his hand were bulging, he wanted to throw the teacup away, but just as he raised his hand, Lin Que grabbed it.He swayed, he seemed to be dizzy with anger, and he couldn't sit still.

Rong Li lowered his voice, "That's all I know, that's all."

Lin Que held Shan Dong's hand anxiously, and stroked his back with the other hand, fearing that he would suddenly lose control and start a fire at Rong Li, and said to Rong Li, "Go back and rest first." Now, about this matter, me, your grandpa... have to think about it again."

Rong Li nodded, and immediately stood up, "Then I'll go back first."

Seeing her stepping out of the threshold, Zhou Qinglin sighed, "At that time, if I forced her to stay, she wouldn't have to suffer so much in Qi'an."

"The loss of goods back then was really strange. Before the investigation was made, the status of the Shan family in the imperial city had plummeted. Later, it would be even more difficult to thoroughly investigate this matter." Shan Dong said in a hoarse voice: "Now Thinking about it, it's really suspicious, but I never thought that it was Rong Changting who got in the way, when he was young and polite, he always knew people and faces but didn't know his heart."

"The Rong family deserved what they've done to their fate." Lin Que caressed Shan Dong's hand, keeping his eyes on him.

The cold wind outside the house is bleak, and the warm sun shines in front of the hall. The water in the pool is mottled with light and shadow, as if sprinkled with a large amount of gold powder.

Hua Su followed Rongli out of the main hall, "It's finally settled, it's still early, let's go to Panyang Mountain to have a look."

Rong Li paused, knowing that this ghost was not the first time to come to the imperial city, perhaps he could even call out the names of the streets and alleys in this city.But it doesn't mean that you can go if you just walk, she said nervously: "If Panyang Mountain is far away from here, how should I go?"

Hua Su sneered coldly, "No matter how the imperial city has changed in the past thousand years, the mountains are still these mountains, and the waters are also these waters. Is it possible that there are still people who follow the example of Yugong to move mountains and Jingwei to fill the sea?"

Rong Li whispered: "Do you know the way?"

Hua Su nodded, "Naturally."

"But if it's too far away, I still can't go there. If I'm outside the residence all day, I don't know how to explain it when asked." Rongli said.

Hua Su raised his hand, black smoke wrapped around his fingers, like a moving ring, "How difficult is it to go to Panyang Mountain?"

Rong Li blinked, always felt that this ghost was becoming more and more extravagant and wasteful, at first he was not even willing to spend a little more ghost power, but now he is not stingy, spending whatever he wants, as if he is very rich.

Seeing a maid passing by in the distance, she raised her hand to cover her lips and said, "Your energy has only recovered to [-]%, is it really advisable to spend so much?"

"Now there's no need to fight to kill ghosts, it's okay to spend a little bit." Hua Su turned his wrist, and the ghost energy around his fingers dissipated immediately.

Rong Li pursed his lips slightly, his eyelashes trembling, "You are becoming more and more casual when you use ghost power."

"Afraid that my ghost power will be exhausted and I won't be able to protect you?" Hua Su sneered.

Rongli nodded his head very sincerely, "Yes."

In the yard, the three girls were staring at the door eagerly. The moment Rong Li just stepped in, their staring gazes fell over at the same time, almost pounced on them.

Rong Li was stunned for a moment, "What's the matter?"

Xiaofu approached quickly, "Who is the guest here? The girl rushed over in a hurry, but she scared me away."

Bai Liu just stared, didn't speak, only Kong Qing was still calm.

"It's mother's old friend." Rong Li said.

Xiaofu was dumbfounded, "Old lady... an old friend? But how could the girl know him?"

"I don't know him. I heard about it from the housekeeper when I was in Rong's residence, so I wanted to meet him." Rong Li said without changing his face.

Little Fu Nana responded: "What kind of friendship does that man have with Da Furen?"

"Why do you want to know everything?" Rong Li looked at her amusedly.

Xiaofu stopped her voice immediately, she looked like a frightened chick, "I don't ask."

Rongli entered the room, when he closed the door, he saw the three maids were still staring at her, he simply said: "I went into the room to rest for a while, I just listened to something in the main hall, and I felt a little bored."

Hua Su shook his head, and exposed it mercilessly, "I don't know who is upset, I think you are doing well."

Rong Li closed the door, turned around and said, "Why don't you see where that green skin fish demon has gone, it's been a while, and it should be here."

Hua Su took down a silver bell from his hair and threw it into the air, and when the water mirror opened, he could see an ice field again.

There is no one inhabited on the ice field, as if it is some otherworldly place, the sky is covered with dark clouds, and there is no scorching sun.

There is a forest of ice trees all around, and the trees are all white, and the leaves are frozen into pieces of white ice leaves, and the icicles are inserted upside down on them. If you walk under the trees, you have to worry about whether the icicles will suddenly fall. Poked a hole in the head.

The green skin fish demon was walking again, and Xu had already passed through the ice wall blocking the way.

Hua Su frowned, although she never laughed before, she could at least tease her, but now she doesn't even say a word.

Rong Li watched intently, only to see the picture in front of him move violently, it was the green skin fish demon who scratched his hair, and inadvertently grabbed the silver bell to the front.

Originally, he could only see the back of the green-skinned fish monster's head, but now his field of vision has changed, and he can actually see the way ahead.

I saw a crane in the distance slowly approaching. When it bent down, its eyes were red, as if it wanted to bend down and peck.

The green skin fish demon was startled, and suddenly dodged to the side, but was still pecked straight.

The long and pointed beak passed through him, but there was no bleeding.Although he didn't see any blood, he was still a little scared. He hurriedly touched the top of his skull, and after touching it back and forth for a while, he rubbed the back of his hand against his clothes and breathed a sigh of relief.

The blue-skinned fish demon said to himself: "It's been a long time since I came back, I forgot that Dong Heng's magic circle is still here, and I don't know why Dong Heng put such a big fake bird here."

Fake?Rong Li frowned.

This crane is lifelike, very agile, even more real than the ones she drew with painting ghosts.

Looking up at the water mirror, she saw a pinch of red on the top of the crane's head. The feathers were black and white. The crane crown seemed to be the only bright color in the ice field.

This crane... is extremely tall, with half a leg alone, it is far taller than the fish demon.

Cranes know how to eat fish, so there is nothing wrong with the green fish demon being afraid of it.

The blue-skinned fish demon avoided the crane in fear, and walked into the ice forest. The trees in the forest were not too short, but the icicles hanging upside down from the trees seemed to hit his head, so he had to walk in cautiously with his back bent.

Rong Li has never seen such an ice field, although Qi An is also cold, and it will snow, but no matter how cold it is, it will not freeze like this.She whispered: "Is this ice field in the mortal world?"

"No." Hua Su shook his head, "Just like Cangming City, it is also outside the mortal world."

Rong Li was fascinated, "Then even if you want to come to this place, ordinary people can't go."

Hua Su looked at her sideways, "Why, want to go?"

Rong Li shook his head, "It's so cold, I'm afraid I'm going to freeze to death before I step in. I don't even need to go in and take a look. When the bones are cold, it's almost as good as burying it."

"That place just looks cold." The coldness in Hua Su's eyes lessened a bit, and his eyes moved, "It's been like this for thousands of years without melting ice. Its core is like fire, and it's cold on the outside and hot on the inside."

I saw the green-skinned fish demon pass through the ice, and a dry pool of water came into view.

It was really dry, and there was not a drop of water in the pool. Looking inside, the bottom was as dry and black as an abyss, and some frozen white twigs could be vaguely seen protruding from it.

The green-skinned fish demon stood by the pool and looked in. He couldn't see the bottom at a glance, and he knew how deep it was. It didn't seem like a place where people could live.

The surrounding area was desolately quiet, but there was not a single ghost in sight.

The green-skinned fish demon stood by the pool and stared blankly for a while, "When I left, there was obviously still water in this Dongming pool, why did it become like this?"

He whimpered, looked around hastily, took a deep breath, and jumped down from Dongming Lake.

Rong Li stared straight, the water mirror was suddenly pitch black, and he couldn't see anything.

"Will he...will fall to his death?"

Hua Su snorted softly, "Then you look down on a monster too much."

Rong Li watched in fear, and saw the fish monster leaping in, his figure was suddenly swallowed up, the pool was so dark that he couldn't see anything clearly.

There is no light, and I don’t know how that Dongheng Lord can stay there. What is the difference between this person who can’t see his fingers, and lying in a coffin, not to mention that there was water in the deep pool before, so it’s just dark, and it’s still wet Yes, isn't this... soaking corpses?

In her previous life, she knew that she would die, and she once lay in a coffin. It was really dark inside, and not even a little light could seep in.

The green-skinned fish demon jumped to the bottom of the pool and used its demon power to illuminate the surroundings.A cluster of fire danced in his palm, he turned around and walked slowly along the road, the twists and turns underneath looked like a maze.

Rong Li felt more and more that this place was not for living, and Mr. Dongheng knew what kind of spells he practiced, living here was like imprisoning himself, it seemed that he could live a good life.

She didn't know if the demons and ghosts had the words "living life", but she vaguely felt that Mr. Dongheng was too careless.

The blue-skinned fish demon paused in its footsteps, and suddenly called out, but I don't know whose name it was calling.

There was a response from inside: "Who!"

The green skin fish demon followed the sound and hurriedly ran, the eyes suddenly brightened, and he suddenly bumped into an old man who was holding on to a long stick.

"Just looking at it, I can already smell a stench." Hua Su hated it.

The old man slammed his long stick to the ground with a thud, and his expression was stern, "Why are you still coming back!"

Hua Su raised his eyebrows, and jokingly said: "I'm afraid this little fish demon will be kicked out."

The green skin fish demon took two steps back, "Mr. Dongheng hasn't come back yet?"

The old man's face was covered with fish scales, his cheeks had fish fins, his hair hung down his back like algae, and his eyes were so white that they seemed to have no pupils.He sternly said: "How dare you ask, if you hadn't had your help, how could Lord Dongheng have taken Tanyan away!"

The blue-skinned fish demon was scolded and was very puzzled, "But Tanyan belongs to Lord Dongheng, besides... I have never helped Lord Dongheng, I, I have never even seen him, how can I help him? I have been searching for many years, just to find Mr. Dongheng back, and now you are scolding me?"

The old man narrowed his eyes slightly, as if he didn't believe it, "If we can get back the eyes of the pool, we will still be the fish fairy of Dongming Lake."

"Why did Mr. Dongheng leave back then?" the green-skinned fish demon asked hastily.

The old man raised his stick violently, and gave the green skin fish demon a blow to the head.

The water mirror suddenly shattered, and before it could condense into a silver bell, it shattered into powder with a clang sound, until it was completely shattered.

Hua Su's expression darkened, and his red lips moved, "He actually found out this same bell."

Rong Li narrowed his gaze, and said hesitantly: "The reason why Mr. Dongheng left Dongming Lake seems to be a secret."

Hua Su scoffed, "Even the eyes of the pool have been taken away, it seems that they are determined to die of thirst for all these fish fairies."

Rong Li raised her hand, and some shattered crystal powder fell on her hand, "Is your silver bell broken just like that?"

Hua Su didn't take it seriously, "It's just a pair of bells from the same plant, there are many more."

Rong Li glanced at her braid, and he really saw a lot of silver bells hanging on the hairpin.

Seeing that it was still early, she pushed the door and walked out, and when she raised her eyes, she saw Kong Qing standing upright outside the door.

The door creaked.

Kong Qing hurriedly turned her head, her whole body trembling with fright, "Miss, have you rested?"

Rong Li nodded, "It's better."

Kong Qing felt relieved, "I heard a noise in the room, guessed that the girl was talking to that person, so I came to guard the door, so that Xiao Fu and Bai Liu would not hear anything."

Rong Li smiled, this girl is really courageous, if it were Xiao Fu and Bai Liu, she would not be able to guard the door, she might just run away at the door.She nodded slightly, and said softly: "If someone comes looking for you later, they will say that I am unwell and have fallen asleep. Don't let anyone come in."

Although Kong Qing was puzzled, she still nodded, "Don't worry, girl."

Hua Su said in the room: "It sounds like I'm going to do something sneaky."

After Rong Li finished giving his orders, he closed the door and went back to the house, looking at the big ghost who couldn't stop talking.

This ghost's appearance is really cold and beautiful, but he has a chattering mouth. When he is not speaking, he is aloof and indifferent. When he speaks, he is a little bit more mean and arrogant.

Hua Su raised his eyes, but smiled silently.

Rong Li pinched her robe, "Aren't you going to Panyang Mountain?"

Hua Su said, "Go and go, what are you talking about."

Rongli let go of his hand, and said softly, "Then I won't pull you."

Hua Su frowned, with anger in his eyes, "It's better to tighten up, so as not to be thrown away accidentally, and I don't know where to find you."

Rong Li knew that this ghost was insincere, so he squeezed his hand again, "It's not a kite with a string, it's not like it will be thrown away."

After finishing speaking, the ghostly energy flew up beside him, hovering like black crows flocking, and the chill invaded, like being buried deep under the snow.

The thick black smoke rushed towards the face, drowning the sight in an instant, leaving only a piece of blackness in front of the eyes, and nothing else could be seen.

Rong Li clutched the corner of the black silk tightly in his hand, not daring to let go, suddenly felt that his feet were empty, as if he was being lifted into the air.

A hand pressed on her back, the palm was chilly, as if it was Hua Su's hand.

The ghost energy dissipated suddenly, Rongli opened his eyes, and realized that he was already on the barren hill.

Hua Su remained silent, sitting cross-legged on the rock with a cold face, a strong wind swirled beside her, and her black robe and loose braids fluttered.She closed her eyes tightly, pursed her red lips tightly, and it took a long time before she opened her eyes and let out a breath.

Rong Li whispered: "If not, next time it's better to save money, don't waste so much trouble."

How could Hua Su admit that she was tired, her braids were tossed by the wind, and a lock of hair hung down on her forehead, just covering the cinnabar between her brows.She said indifferently: "It's just a bit of ghostly effort, so it's a lot of trouble."
