Yuan Ying followed behind with a food box and a book box. She thought that Gu Ling was going to take Sheng Yue to Yuanming Pavilion to find Su Liang, but halfway Gu Ling suddenly grabbed Sheng Yue's arm and turned into an uninhabited house.
courtyard.
It is not accurate to say that there is no one. There is no one on the ground. There are three prisoners in the dungeon: Nangong Lin, Yue Mei and Nian Ruxue.
The underground secret room under Yuanming Pavilion has always been used to lock people temporarily, and it is inconvenient to keep people there for a long time. The only value of these three people now is to test medicines and poisons for Su Liang, Gu Ling and Wen Minglao Bai.
Gu Ling opened the entrance to the dungeon, Sheng Yue's face remained calm, "Is this your sincerity in cooperation?"
Gu Ling looked indifferent and said, "You have come a long way. Let's take a rest first before talking about anything else. This is my sincerity in hospitality."
Sheng Yue sighed slightly and did not resist. He walked into the dungeon obediently and let Gu Ling tie his feet with black iron chains.
The movement caused Nangong Lin, who was curled up in another cell, to slowly sit up and look over. The dungeon was very dark, but it was dark enough for him to recognize Gu Ling at a glance. He grabbed the cold iron railings with both hands and lifted his stiffness.
He also dragged his body over and said in a weak voice, "Disciple... Ling'er... I am pitiful and pitiful for my master. I am so kind to you!"
Gu Ling didn't even look at Nangong Lin. He had tried medicine on him several times recently, which made him realize that life was truly worse than death. He stopped cursing Gu Ling and Su Liang and kept begging him to let him live.
But Gu Ling is very familiar with people like Nangong Lin who have no moral bottom line: if he were to let him go, once he seizes the opportunity, he will definitely fight back crazily and continue to harm others. This kind of person regards other people's lives as nothing, relying on martial arts
Gao Qiang was so greedy for human life that when it was his turn, he was greedy for life and afraid of death to the extreme.
Sheng Yue had already identified the three prisoners who lived in the dungeon before him, and asked, "Why don't you get rid of them and get rid of them all?"
"Test the poison." Gu Ling replied, "You have a special constitution and I need to borrow some of your blood."
Sheng Yue was slightly stunned when he heard the last sentence, "Do you want to cooperate with me, or do you just want to catch me?"
"Let's talk." After Gu Ling finished speaking, he closed the door of the cell and turned around to leave.
"Can you untie the rope on my hand? It's too tight." Sheng Yue asked.
Gu Ling didn't look back, and the sound of footsteps gradually faded away, disappearing where they couldn't see.
The dungeon was very dark, but the underground was no colder than the outside. When Sheng Yue saw Nangong Lin staring directly at him, Sheng Yue did not speak, but waited for Nangong Lin to ask, "Sheng Yue? Is that you?"
They had met once before, and Nangong Lin recognized Sheng Yue's voice.
Sheng Yue didn't answer. In Nangong Lin's opinion, this was acquiescence. He suddenly became excited, "Why were you arrested too? Where is your master Mo Yan? Is he dead?"
"Not dead." Sheng Yue spoke in a low voice, "But if you wait for Mo Yan to rescue you after defeating Gu Ling, you don't have to dream."
When Nangong Lin heard this, he loosened his grip and fell to the ground, crying, "If I had known this, I should have strangled him to death... threw him to death..." This was of course the young Gu Ling he was talking about.
Yue Mei sat in a dark corner, watching everything with cold eyes, her eyes dark and sinister, as if all her hair had fallen off, leaving only a skinny vulture.
Nian Ruxue was asleep when she was woken up by the sound of crying. She discovered that a new person had arrived. She didn't recognize Sheng Yue for a moment and asked, "Who are you?"
Sheng Yue closed his eyes and ignored it.
Nangong Lin answered Nian Ruxue's question, "Sheng Yue, he is Sheng Yue... Mo Yan's most capable subordinate! He was also caught, hahahaha... trash... they are all trash! I shouldn't believe it
you!"
When Nian Ruxue heard this, her expression froze and she murmured, "How could it be..." In her eyes, Sheng Yue's strength could rival Gu Ling's.
Since Gu Ling locked Sheng Yue here, he wasn't afraid of them communicating with each other. And Sheng Yue also knew very well that those three losers couldn't provide any useful information. He didn't know many things as much as he did, so he didn't bother to pay attention to them.
…
When Yuan Ying entered Yuanming Pavilion, Su Liang had already learned about Sheng Yue's arrival from Qi Yan and Nangong Qian. Ji Yuebai also arrived with her children and was telling Su Liang the whole story of his acquaintance with "Cheng Feng".
"Sorry, I'm not vigilant enough." Ji Yuebai sighed.
Su Liang shook his head, "If he didn't harm you, it's nothing. If you don't go with him, he will still come."
Ji Xiaoshu, who was sitting on Ji Yuebai's lap, frowned and complained to Ji Yuebai, "Dad, you are so careless. You bring people of unknown origin with you. Fortunately, Master and Master had a plan, so that bad guy didn't harm you!"
Ji Yuebai quickly admitted her mistake, "Yes, yes, it's all my fault. Thank you, Mistress."
"That's right." Ji Xiaoshu hummed, "Master Wife is so generous, for my sake I won't be angry with you."
Su Liang chuckled lightly, "Yes. For Xiaoshu's sake, I won't care about King Yan's mistakes this time."
"Why hasn't Xiao Gu brought Sheng Yue over yet?" Ji Yuebai looked at the door, "Don't let that person cheat again, Master..."
Ji Yuebai's master was about to get up and go out to check, when he saw Yuan Ying coming in, "It's okay, Xiao Gu locked Sheng Yue in the dungeon."
"Master, please sit down quickly. I'll get you some delicious food!" Ji Xiaoshu slipped off Ji Yuebai's legs and ran upstairs quickly.
"My son has really grown up." Ji Yuebai sighed, and said to Su Liang, "Thank you so much for you and Xiao Gu." It's not that no one takes care of Ji Xiaoshu, but that he is unhappy in Prince Yan's Mansion. He sees that
He seemed naughty, but became depressed after losing his mother. Gu Ling and Su Liang gave Ji Xiaoshu a new home that made him happy.
"You're welcome, Xiaoshu belongs to my family." Su Liang smiled. She and Gu Ling had no sons, and they didn't plan to have any more children for the time being. She liked her two children very much and raised them as her own sons.
Ji Yuebai laughed loudly, "You are right!"
Yuan Ying had already taken out the vegetarian food that Gu Ling had brought back from Huguo Temple, but it was a little cold because of the delay. Su Liang said to take it later and heat it up before eating.
Ji Xiaoshu came down from upstairs, holding a box. Yuan Ye looked at it and said with a smile, "Little Orange!"
They were dried tangerines that Gu Ling learned to make from Mrs. Lin. They were sour, sweet and delicious. Ji Xiaoshu reserved some for Ji Yuebai.
When Ji Xiaoshu fed Ji Yuebai and his master to taste it, Ji Yuebai nodded, "It's really delicious."
"This is handmade by my master!" Ji Xiaoshu was quite proud.
Just when she saw Gu Ling coming in, Ji Yuebai said with a smile, "Xiao Gu, your status in my son's heart surpasses mine."
Gu Ling looked at Ji Xiaoshu, "Really?"
Ji Xiaoshu immediately shook his head, "What's there to argue about? Of course my favorite is my wife!"
After sitting for a while, Ji Yuebai stood up and left without asking Gu Ling what he planned to do with Sheng Yue. He still had his wife and children in Prince Yan's palace.
Ji Yuebai hugged Ji Xiaoshu again, "Are you going home with dad?"
"No, Aunt Yuan and Uncle Ershan are getting married. I have something to do. Remember to go to the wedding banquet tomorrow! See you then!" Ji Xiaoshu waved his hand coolly.
Ji Yuebai rubbed Ji Xiaoshu's head and said, "Okay, I'll see you tomorrow." After saying that, he left with his master.
The children went to the kitchen to see whether Qiuyue and Wen Ran's rice was ready, and Gu Ling and Su Liang went upstairs. Wen Ming was discussing with Lao Bai about Sheng Yue being immune to all poisons, and they all agreed that he should be spared.
Study the blood to see if it has detoxifying effects.
Su Liang listened thoughtfully to Gu Ling's story and Sheng Yue's attitude, "It seems that Pucheng found him and he came after seeing our letter. But even if he was captured without a fight, I don't think we can trust him easily.
"
Gu Ling felt the same, otherwise he wouldn't have thrown Sheng Yue into the dungeon, "Let's see again."
…
The sixth day of the twelfth lunar month is a good time to get married.
Lin Xin, with a spring breeze on his face, led the wedding procession to the gate of Su Mansion.
The door-blocking team went out again, led by Ji Xiaoshu, Zheng'er and Yuanye. This time the children also roped in Gu Ling to help.
The last time Qi Jun married Liandong, the children blocked the door once. This time Qi Jun informed Lin Xin in advance. When Lin Xin learned that Qi Jun passed the customs smoothly, he felt that there was no problem for him. But in fact, Qi Jun concealed an important fact.
Huan: As an insider, Su Liang revealed the answer in advance, so there was no difficulty at all.
This time the topic was "created with love" by Gu Ling for Lin Xi, and he was not given the opportunity to cheat.
Lin Xin was stumped by the second question, "Give me another hint!"
"Uncle Ershan, come on!" Zheng'er encouraged him warmly.
Lin Xian scratched his head anxiously, "Xiao Shu, please be accommodating. Uncle will give you a treasure later!"
"No bribery! You can be lenient. There were originally ten questions, but now you only need to answer five correctly to get in!" Ji Xiaoshu said that this was a task assigned by the master's wife. The original aunt got up late, hadn't dressed up yet, and the time hadn't come yet.
urgent.
Zheng'er still gave Lin Wei a hint, and Lin Wei quickly answered the second question.
Ji Xiaoshu covered Zheng'er's mouth and said, "Senior Brother, please don't rebel."
Zheng'er nodded, but for the third question, he gave another hint.
"Master, arrest senior brother!" Ji Xiaoshu commanded.
Gu Ling gave him a cool look, "I told you, I like Zheng'er better."
Ji Xiaoshu:......
Yuanye climbed to the top of the wall and waved to Lin Wei, "Brother-in-law, brother-in-law!"
Lin Yan's eyes lit up, "Xiaoye, help me!"
Yuan Ye stretched out his hand, "Okay! Brother-in-law, I'll pull you over!"
Lin Xin coughed lightly, "That's no need, go back quickly."
Although it was not easy, Lin Wei still answered the five questions with Zheng'er's help. Yuanye opened the door and hugged Lin Wei, "Brother-in-law! Will my sister and I sleep at your house today?"
Lin Xie quickly coaxed Yuanye, "Xiaoye, you can go another day." Just kidding, you can't let anyone make trouble in the wedding night, especially the naughty Ji Xiaoshu!
Seeing Lin Xi looking over, Ji Xiaoshu quickly raised his hand and said, "Congratulations to Uncle Lin! I wish Uncle Lin and Aunt Yuan a happy marriage and a son soon!"
Lin Wei couldn't help but smile when he saw the cute children sending him blessings, "Thank you!" Then he strode inside like the wind, and patted Gu Ling on the shoulder when he passed by, "Thank you most, Gu Xiaoling!
"
Zheng'er pulled Yuan Ye and ran in front of Lin Wei, "Quick! Uncle Xiaoye, you still want to send Aunt Yuan out!"
Hearing the noise outside, Su Liang covered Yuan Ying with a red hijab, and saw Yuan Ye rushing in, "Sister! Brother-in-law is here!"
Su Liang asked Yuan Ye to carry Yuan Ying on his back, and Yuan Ye lifted her hijab to see how Yuan Ying looked after putting on makeup.
So, Lin Wei stood outside the courtyard gate and heard Zheng'er exclaiming, "Wow! Aunt Yuan is so beautiful today!"
Lin Xian looked inside, but couldn't see anything, and felt anxious.
Soon, Yuanye carried Yuan Ying out steadily and went to the courtyard gate. He said seriously what Su Liang taught him, "Brother-in-law, you have to be nice to my sister, or I will beat you up!"
Lin Yan's attention was all on Yuan Ying, and he nodded without hesitation, "I will, I swear."
Everything went smoothly after that. The Lin family made the wedding a lively event and invited many guests.
When Zheng'er, Ji Xiaoshu and Yuanye were taken over by Gu Ling, they happened to catch up with the newlyweds.
Ji Yuebai was also there, holding her youngest son in her arms. When the youngest son saw Ji Xiaoshu, he clapped his hands happily, "Brother! Brother!"
Ji Xiaoshu ran over, took his brother over, and asked Ji Yuebai, "Dad, please prepare betrothal gifts for me and my brother when you have time."
Ji Yuebai coughed lightly, "Is it too early?"
"We will grow up soon! I also want to marry a wife as good as my wife!" Ji Xiaoshu expressed his ideal.
Ji Yuebai nodded repeatedly, "If you are ambitious, come on, son, I will take care of the betrothal gift on my father."
After the worship service, they entered the bridal chamber. The children went to play in the bridal chamber for a while before being driven away.
According to the rules, Lin Ying has not seen Yuan Ying for three days. He used a scale to lift the red hijab, his eyes were stunning. Yuan Ying's facial features were already bright, and after being modified by Su Liang's skillful hands, they were even more beautiful.
I couldn't help but marvel, "How could I be so lucky to marry such a beautiful fairy!"
Yuan Ying laughed and said, "Wipe the saliva from the corner of your mouth."
Lin Xian subconsciously raised his hand to wipe it, then realized that he was teased, he smiled, quickly drank a glass of wine, took off Yuan Ying's headdress, and then knocked her down.
He abstained from sexual intercourse as soon as he started having sex. God knows how hard it was for him, but finally he was able to enter the bridal chamber again.
It was already afternoon when Gu Ling returned home after drinking the wedding wine with the children.
"Master, what should we do with that bad guy? Do we want to kill him?" Ji Xiaoshu was still thinking about Sheng Yue.
Gu Ling shook his head, "If we don't kill him for now, it will still be useful."
Not long after, when the children were playing in the open space at the entrance of Yuanming Pavilion, they saw Gu Ling taking Sheng Yue to the pavilion on the other side of the lake. They didn't know what they were talking about.
"Senior Brother, that bad guy is missing one hand, how can he pee?" Ji Xiaoshu asked Zheng'er.
Zheng'er coughed lightly and said, "One hand...it's okay too."
"Hmph! He also went by the pseudonym Chengfeng, and it sounds like he is a brother to Uncle Chengyun. How shameless!" Ji Xiaoshu complained.
Zheng'er nodded, "Indeed. Although he is really Uncle Chengyun's biological brother, he is too mean to Uncle Chengyun!"
…
Gu Ling didn't know what the children were talking about. He untied the rope on Sheng Yue's body, but did not untie the chain on his feet because he was not afraid that he would run away.
"When did you go to Xingluo Island? Since Mo Yan knows your mother, why didn't he recognize you?" Gu Ling asked.
"You know, I look like my father." Sheng Yue looked at the children playing on the other side, his eyes fell on Yuan Ye, his expression was indifferent, "Mo Yan has never met my father, because my father is a man who is greedy for life and afraid of death.
, good at hiding.”
"Where's Pucheng?" Gu Ling asked.
"I don't know." Sheng Yue shook his head, "His martial arts has been ruined by you, and it is useless to me. I let him go, and let him go wherever he wants."
"Put your hand here." Gu Ling pointed to the table, and there was a sharp knife and a porcelain bottle in his hand.
Sheng Yue knew what Gu Ling was going to do, so he didn't refuse. He put his only hand on the table and let Gu Ling cut his wrist with a knife and let the blood flow into the porcelain bottle.
When the bottle was almost full, Gu Ling stopped, put down the knife, sprinkled the hemostatic powder on Sheng Yue's wrist, and wrapped the wound with gauze.
Then Gu Ling flew across the lake, entered Yuanming Pavilion, and handed the collected blood to Su Liang. Wen Ming and Lao Bai were also waiting.
Sheng Yue saw Su Liang's figure flash past the second-floor window of Yuanming Pavilion. He narrowed his eyes slightly, lowered his head, and pressed the wound with his free right arm.
Soon, Gu Ling came back again.
"For the sake of my cooperation, can you answer a question for me?" Sheng Yue asked.
"Say." Gu Ling wiped off the blood on the table with a wet cloth.
"You can predict the future, right?" Sheng Yue asked.
Gu Ling shook his head, "No."
Sheng Yue frowned slightly, "You didn't tell the truth."
"It's up to you whether you believe it or not," Gu Ling said.
"How did you come here? My mother said that this is called a parallel world, and she accidentally fell into the gate of time and space." Sheng Yue said, "Is the forbidden area on Xingluo Island the gate of time and space? These
I don’t understand much about this stuff, but I think you must know it.”
Gu Ling asked, "How did your mother die?"
Sheng Yue was stunned for a moment and sighed, "After all, you discovered something was wrong. Indeed, my mother did not die in the forbidden area of Xingluo Island. Otherwise, if she couldn't go back, Mo Yan should have given up her obsession long ago. I
My mother’s death was related to Xingluo Island, but she actually died in the hands of my father.”
Gu Ling's eyes narrowed slightly as Sheng Yue continued, "My mother was discovered by Mo Yan after she gave birth to me. According to my father, before that, my mother had already accepted her fate and never thought about going back.
She was taken to Xingluo Island and learned about the forbidden area. But before Mo Yan could do anything to my mother, his daughter, your mother-in-law, rescued my mother and escaped with her. This is
Why does your wife have the same two jade pendants as my brother? They are tokens of their friendship after sharing adversity."
"Later, my mother reunited with my father and soon became pregnant with Chengyun. But as time went by, my mother could never forget the forbidden area of Xingluo Island. After discovering that there was a way, she wanted to go back to where she was before.
world, and also said that if she could come back, it would mean that the road is open, and she would definitely come to pick us up again, and live a more civilized and beautiful life, a thousand times better than here."
"My father naturally tried his best to dissuade me. As soon as my mother gave birth to Chengyun, she wanted to run away from home and go to Xingluo Island, but my father took her back several times. The last time, they had a fierce quarrel and even quarreled.
I watched with my own eyes as my father pushed my mother down, and her head hit the knife on the ground." Sheng Yue's face remained calm, and his eyes were as calm as a deep pool. "After my mother died, my father was heartbroken.
So he took Chengyun to become a monk. He originally wanted to take me, but I refused. Everyone has his own ambitions. As a son, I don’t want to criticize any of them, and I still don’t understand their so-called love. But Mo Yan said
It's not wrong to destroy my home and kill my mother, isn't it? Maybe, I just want to see what kind of paradise the road that my mother would rather abandon us will lead to.
