Jiutian Xuanhuozhi has been acquired, and there is no need for the two of them to stay any longer.
Qing'er said goodbye immediately: "I have recorded the kindness you showed me to the Yu family today. If you have any difficulties in the future, you can come to Qingyun Castle to see me once, and I will repay your kindness today."
Yu Qiandai hurriedly clasped his fists respectfully, with a smile on his old face. He gave Jiutian Xuanhuozhi as a gift, wasn't he just waiting for these words?
"Okay, we still have things to do. It's inconvenient to stay for a long time today. Let's take our leave." Qing'er said.
After getting Jiutian Xuanhuozhi, I was in a hurry to go back and prepare new medicine for Qian Lingxue.
Thinking that Qian Lingxue could get better, Qing'er felt indescribably excited.
However, just as the two were about to leave, Liu Yuan, who had been silent all this time, suddenly said: "Stay here, you two!"
Qing'er paused and turned around: "Is there anything else?"
Seeing Liu Yuan's hesitant expression, Long Wenmu became slightly alert.
Liu Yuan had a smile on his face and hesitated for a moment, "Haha, there is indeed something... I wonder if you two are interested in monsters?"
Long Wenmu's eye sockets shrank slightly.
"Monster? What monster?" Qing'er asked.
She came here today just for Jiutian Xuanhuozhi. She didn't know why Liu Yuan suddenly mentioned the monsters. What does it have to do with them?
I saw Liu Yuan twitching the corners of his mouth slightly, as if hesitating, and finally said: "You two, sit down first, this matter is a long story."
Although Qing'er was a little impatient, the other party sent Jiutian Xuanhuozhi to him. She couldn't refute the other party's face, so she could only sit down quietly.
"Actually, this incident happened a few days ago." Liu Yuandao, "I came to the Yu family today just for this matter. I believe you two will also be interested in it."
Qing'er listened quietly, while Long Wenmu lowered his eyelids and looked like he was listening attentively.
"I wonder if the girl knows about a place called Wushan on the southern border?"
"Wu Shan? I've never heard of it." Qing'er answered truthfully.
"In fact, a while ago, there was news in Wushan that there were monster beasts. Girls should also know that monsters are everywhere on the mainland, and the presence of monster beasts is not a big deal. However, my son Liu Changfeng led the
People go to fight against monsters, but they never come back." When Liu Yuan said this, his voice became obviously sad.
Qing'er just laughed it off: "The monster is ferocious. What's the big fuss if someone dies while fighting the monster? I can only say that your son is not strong enough."
Qing'er's character is inherently straightforward, and there is no subtlety in what she says.
Liu Yuan sighed deeply: "Hey, the girl is right. If he was eaten by an ordinary monster, it would be nothing. The key is that according to the servants who escaped back to my Liu family, my unsatisfactory son is
He died in the mouth of the great dragon demon."
Qing'er suddenly opened her eyes in disbelief: "What? Are you talking about the great dragon demon?"
As a person from Qingyun Castle, dealing with monsters is a common thing. If it were an ordinary monster, Qing'er wouldn't be surprised, but Liu Yuan actually said it was a dragon-type monster!
Dragon species are an extremely rare species among monsters and beasts. Even people from Qingyun Castle would find it difficult to encounter dragon species, let alone at the level of a great demon.
"Are you serious?" Qing'er asked seriously.
If this is true, then she must take this matter seriously. After this news is sent back to Qingyun Castle, someone will definitely go hunting.
A piece of the source stone of a great dragon demon is enough to make a strong man. The source stone of a great dragon demon is definitely the top among the great demon source stones, and its weight is second only to the origin stone of the earth demon.
This kind of news would be enough to make any force jealous. "The girl is from Qingyun Castle. How can I dare to talk nonsense in front of the girl." Liu Yuan said sincerely, "But other than that, the people who escaped back will be jealous."
Someone told me some other news. According to my servant, although my son died at the mouth of a monster, he was actually assassinated for some reason!"
Long Wenmu felt a thump in his heart and realized something was wrong.
No, Liu Yuan's tone was clearly wrong.
Why did you deliberately tell Qing'er about the great dragon demon? If you told the people of Qingyun Castle, wouldn't it be equivalent to giving away the dragon source stone? Why did you deliberately mention this in front of them?
?
Something was throbbing in his heart.
"He was assassinated? Who assassinated your son?" Qing'er also followed his words and asked.
Liu Yuan's expression gradually became serious as he said word by word: "The person who harmed my son is a person from Baishuang City. His name is Long Wenmu!"
…
Somewhere in Old Kangcheng, among the inns.
Qian Lingxue sat quietly on the bed, looking out the window at the gloomy sky.
It was clear that the sun was shining brightly before, but in the blink of an eye, the sky was covered with a layer of clouds.
The sky was dark, and even the house was a little dark, like a prelude to a heavy rain.
The room was filled with the aroma of medicine, and Yelan was pounding medicinal materials into powder.
"Miss Yelan learned her alchemy skills from Mr. Long?" Qian Lingxue took the initiative to chat.
Ye Lan concentrated on pounding the medicinal materials with a stone mortar without raising his head, and just gave a slight hum.
"In your opinion, what kind of person is Mr. Long?" Qian Lingxue asked again.
Since meeting that man, a lot of things have happened to me. I don't know why, but I always have the urge to see through that man.
"The young master is the best person in the world." Yelan said.
Qian Lingxue smiled. She was also a woman. When she heard this, how could she not understand what Ye Lan was thinking.
Yelan also stopped what he was doing and looked out the window.
The air was a bit dull, the clouds in the sky were getting thicker and thicker, and many vendors on the streets below began to carry their things back home.
"It looks like it's going to rain." Ye Lan whispered.
"Well, there are unforeseen circumstances in the sky, and the weather has changed." Qian Lingxue said.
"A heavy rain is coming. Will the young master and the others come back?" Ye Lan asked.
Qian Lingxue also looked out the window worriedly: "If everything goes well, they should be back. I hope nothing goes wrong during their trip."
As he spoke, he gently placed a hand over his heart.
I don’t know what’s going on, but from the very beginning, I felt an inexplicable feeling of anxiety in my heart, as if something was about to happen.
As a demon master, feeling like this is never a good sign.
There was a flash of lightning in the sky, and a rumble of thunder made the porcelain in the room rustle.
A storm is rising and a thunderstorm is coming. This is not a good sign. I hope... nothing will happen to them...
…
Outside the Yu Mansion, it was also illuminated by the lightning, and the sound of thunder in the sky replaced the thunder in Long Wenmu's heart.
"You just said...what's that person's name?" Qing'er didn't quite believe her ears.
"The real murderer of my son's name is Long Wenmu." Liu Yuan repeated it again.
Long Wenmu was shocked. What he was most worried about had indeed happened.
After the trip to Wushan, it turned out that some of the servants of the Liu family survived, and they even accurately brought the news back to the Liu family.
The little bit of luck in his heart was shattered at this moment.
The other party even knew his name.
Qing'er was surprised and looked at Long Wenmu with her peripheral vision.
What's going on? How come the person who killed that guy's son has the same name as this man?
In this way, when he was asked to come to the Yu Mansion together, he resisted. Now thinking about it, Qing'er seemed to have realized something.
"Miss Qing'er, please take a look. According to my servant's memories, I have asked someone to draw a portrait." Liu Yuan said, taking out a painting from his arms. On it was a man who looked at least eight years like Long Wenmu.
Very similar.
Seeing this painting, Qing'er already knew that her guess was probably right.
Long Wenmu drank tea with his head lowered, his eyes raised upwards, scanning over the painting, and he put down the tea cup lightly.
"This painting does look like me." He said with a smile, "Speaking of which, my surname is also Long. Doesn't Master Liu think this person is me?"
Liu Yuan had been avoiding Long Wenmu before, but he didn't look at him until now.
"Young Master Long is joking. I think this is a coincidence. The thief I am looking for is a small figure in Baishuang City. How could he be a hero of Qingyun Castle like Mr. Long?"
Long Wenmu didn't comment, grabbed the cake and put it in his mouth.
"That thief dared to harm my son. I originally planned to send people to Baishuang City to capture the thief after discussing with Brother Yu today, and then go and kill the monsters in Wushan Mountain." Liu Yuan waved his sleeves, some
said angrily.
Long Wenmu remained calm: "What will happen if you catch this person?"
"Hmph, if I catch this man, I will definitely tear him apart and skin him, and use his blood to sacrifice my son's spirit in heaven. Not only this man, but anyone who knows this man in Baishuang City, I will not let him go." Liu Yuan
roared.
Yu Qiandai looked a little bad next to him. As the head of a family, he could smell something unusual based on his intuition.
"Brother Liu, you are excited." He comforted.
Liu Yuan took a deep breath, sat down on the chair, picked up the tea cup and took a sip: "This thief has a grudge against me for killing my son, how can I not be excited when talking about him. Miss Qing'er, in fact, I will
Let me tell you two, I also want to lend your hands to go to Wushan Mountain with me to kill the monsters."
Qing'er had been worried before, but she came to her senses after hearing the sound.
She was also worried in her heart.
She was almost certain that the person Liu Yuan was talking about who killed her son was the person next to her.
Not only is the name Long Wenmu exactly the same, but the portrait is also the same as him. It can't be a coincidence.
It turns out that this guy has shouldered such a blood debt, no wonder he refused to come to Yu Mansion before.
Qing'er also complained, since this guy knew this was the case, why didn't he just say it outright before?
When the other party told this matter face to face, they were already in a dilemma.
Of course, Qing'er is not a fool. Although she realizes it in her heart, she will definitely not admit it verbally.
Moreover, Liu Yuan seems to have not connected the two.
"You want the two of us to go to Wushan with you?" she asked, pretending to be calm.
Liu Yuan smiled: "That's right. Brother Yu and I are both high-grade great demon masters, and our two families also have some demon masters. Together, these combat powers are enough to deal with the great demons. But this time, after all, we have to
We are dealing with dragon species. If two heroes from Qingyun Castle join us, we will be even more sure. Miss Qing'er is not too busy to refuse. If this is successful, I only need the blood of monsters to pay tribute to the soul of my son.
But, as for the Monster Origin Stone, it belongs to both of you."
