With a sigh, Lin Mengya got up from Long Tianhao's arms and continued to pack the baby's things silently.
Long Tianhao didn't comfort her anymore. He just stayed by her side quietly and helped her from time to time.
Everyone was in low spirits after Ning 'er's departure.
Especially Lin Muzhi. He finally reunited with his grandson, but they only stayed together for a few days.
He used to be a general, but now he became a child slave.
Ning 'er even lived and ate with him these days, which made Lin Mengya jealous.
She and her brother didn't have such treatment. Ning 'er was really lucky.
But the time of separation still came. Standing at the door, Lin Mengya took care of the things that Shangguan Hui and Ning 'er would need on the way.
The carriage was covered with soft woolen cushions. Ning 'er had a lot of food and necessities.
She spoiled him after all. She didn't want him to be wronged at such a young age.
"Well, it's enough. If we keep packing, I'm afraid this carriage won't be enough. "
Hongyu was the oldest. She gently stopped Lin Mengya and was very worried.
Shangguan Hui got on the carriage with the baby's cradle. They looked at each other and communicated tacitly at this moment.
"Let's go."
Shangguan Hui pulled the door down and the carriage immediately left.
Everyone's gaze was focused on the carriage until it gradually disappeared from their line of sight.
At this moment, everyone's faces, in addition to desolation, were naturally solemn and resolute.
"Master, as you expected, he was targeted as soon as he left the city."
In the study, Long Tianhao, the only one who didn't go out to see them off, was kneeling in front of his most powerful spy.
Lin Mengya also came in and heard the news from the spy.
She frowned slightly. Long Tianhao guessed it right.
"Do you know who leaked the news?"
The person who was targeted was the knight-errant chosen by the teacher.
Because the king and Xiaoyu deliberately covered it up, "they" were still in the palace.
In order to cover Shangguan Hui, the knight-errant chose to set off in the palace.
Even if it was just a bait, it was indeed very realistic.
Not only was everything strictly confidential, even the route of the chivalrous man was not known by many.
However, the thing on his body was not a baby, but a realistic doll.
Moreover, she didn't want to take anyone's life because of this.
If someone came to rob them on the way, the hero would still prioritize escaping.
Under the condition of ensuring his own safety, he could drag on for as long as he could.
Moreover, Lin Mengya and Long Tianhao had arranged many escape routes for him in order to thank him.
It was estimated that before Shangguan Hui arrived in the capital, those people would not know that the baby in his arms was a fake.
But what he didn't expect was that that person was really targeted.
Even under such a strict defense, the news was still leaked. It seemed that there was definitely a traitor behind all this!
How dare he plot against her child? His crime is unforgivable!
"I don't know for now, but I believe there will be a result soon. This time, there aren't many people who know about it, so we'll be able to find out very quickly. "
Long Tianhao's face was gloomy. Like Lin Mengya, he also had to catch this person with his own hands.
In fact, Lin Mengya already had her own judgment in her heart, but there was no concrete evidence.
This time, she didn't know how many things would be involved in Ning 'er's departure, but the only thing she knew was that no matter what, she had to get rid of the root of the problem this time.
The atmosphere suddenly became quiet.
Everyone was cooped up in their own rooms, packing their belongings.
It seemed that Ning 'er's departure also took away all their relaxation and vitality.
Hong Yu was taking care of Xiong Lin in the room. The night before, he had woken up from his coma.
He didn't think much about his physical condition, and he naturally trusted this well-known sister of the Lin family unconditionally.
Lin Mengya told him not to think too much, so he wouldn't think too much.
But when Lin Mengya told him that the destination this time was his hometown, this strong man couldn't help but be a little excited.
"Look at you, you're such a grown-up, why are you still like a child?"
Hong Yu pressed him on the bed, took the medicine and clean cotton cloth, and bandaged his wound.
Xiong Lin scratched his head and said with some embarrassment.
"Hey, but after I left, how are the old and young people in the tribe now?"
She knew that this guy always couldn't let go of those people in his heart. Hong Yu comforted him in a soft voice.
"They're all safe, don't worry. Miss Shangguan took out a lot of antidotes, and everyone is no longer crazy. But … don't blame them. Sometimes, they don't have a choice. "
Hong Yu sighed and wanted to say something, but stopped on second thought.
Xiong Lin naturally knew that she was talking about the Chief Elder and the others.
He clenched and loosened his fists. After repeating this for a while, he responded in a low voice.
"I know, after all, they are all my tribesmen."
Lin Mengya stood at the door, not knowing whether she should go in or leave.
Hong Yu's eyes were sharp, and she saw her at once. She immediately got up and walked over gratefully.
"Master, why are you here?"
She glanced at Xiong Lin on the bed, and then looked at the beautiful Hong Yu in front of her.
Even she had to admit that these two fellows were really a perfect match.
No wonder after Shangguan Hui came back, she always nagged in her ears about how great Xiong Lin's kindness was.
She thought that she was afraid that if she disagreed, she would beat this pair of lovebirds.
Alas, did she really look so much like the Queen Mother of the West?
"I'm here to check on his injury. What's wrong? Did I disturb you two? It doesn't matter, I'll come back later. "
Lin Mengya was about to leave, and Hong Yu was so shy that her face turned red. She rolled her eyes and didn't know where to put her eyes.
But she still grabbed Lin Mengya's arm and looked at her pleadingly.
"Well, I won't leave. Alas, a grown girl can't be kept at home. When a good day comes, I'll settle the matter between you two. Brother Xiong Lin, my Hongyu is gentle and virtuous, with a generous dowry. After marrying you, she will definitely be diligent and thrifty, virtuous and virtuous. You can't let her down. "
Xiong Lin was a little excited, and his dark face turned red.
He nodded hurriedly, and Lin Mengya couldn't bear to tease him anymore. She coughed and temporarily ended this topic.
At this time, Hong Yu was so shy that she couldn't even lift her head.
Look, she was just being straightforward. Why were these two people like Starbeck, who couldn't stand any teasing?
Lin Mengya turned around and sat in front of Xiong Lin.
"Brother Xiong Lin, I have something to ask you."
Her attitude was dignified and serious. Xiong Lin also sat up straight, and the blush on his face gradually calmed down.
"Miss, please speak your mind. As long as Xiong Lin knows something, I will tell you everything I know."
Lin Mengya nodded and thought for a while.
"I want to know the origins of the entire Spirit Bear Tribe, or rather, about your ancestors. Also, the relationship between you and the Xin Family, when did it start, and the reason for it."
This matter made Xiong Lin silent for a long time, thinking about it.
After letting out a breath, he answered.
"The ancestors of our Spirit Bear tribe didn't leave any record. However, I have heard from my father that the entire Lieyun Kingdom is actually of the same origin and ancestry. But people now don't know it. "
Lin Mengya had also received confirmation from the books in the palace.
Just like the people in this world called themselves the descendants of Yan and Huang.
The ancestors of the whole Lieyun could be traced back to the era of the King of Venomous Worms and the Witch Empress.
Although it was called a myth, Lin Mengya felt that these myths might not be made up by later generations.
At least the King of Venomous Worms and the Witch Empress should be kings in ancient times.
If the whole Lieyun was passed down from that unverifiable dynasty, she would believe it.
"But —" Xiong Lin changed the topic, "My father once learned from the former High Priest of the Xin Family that the ancestors of the Xin Family were the Witch Empress's maternal family. So they could guard the Pool of Venomous Worms. "
The Witch Empress' maternal family? This was a strange story.
Lin Mengya thought for a while and continued.
"According to the ancient books, the King of Venomous Worms was the descendant of the Divine Clan in heaven, and the Witch Empress was the princess of a country on earth. So you mean, if this rumor is true, the Xin Family should be the royal family of that country? "
Xiong Lin nodded. If it were not for the fact that the High Priest was one of the few moderates in the Xin family, his father would not have found out about this secret.
Lin Mengya sorted out the information that she had received.
She found that everything seemed to point to the two mysterious figures, the King of Venomous Worms and the Witch Empress.
After saying goodbye to Xiong Lin, Lin Mengya went to find her teacher, who was studying the Parasitic Venomous Worms.
The five people from the Spirit Bear had become her teacher's new research subjects. Moreover, they admired their teacher's superb medical and poison skills to the point of prostrating themselves before him. Now, they had already become their teacher's loyal fans.
But Baili Rui's temper was still as strange as before. He often treated the five people as strong laborers, and ordered them to come and go as he pleased.
Seeing that his student was deep in thought, he immediately sent a few people out of the study and took the initiative to stand at the door to greet her.
"What do you know? Why do you look so serious?"
Lin Mengya looked at her teacher, frowned and shook her head.
"Teacher, I always feel that the legacy of Gu Wei and the relic of the Immortal City are not as mysterious as the rumors say."
Baili Rui did not understand what she meant. It was not his fault. Sometimes, even he, as a teacher, could not understand the thoughts in his student's mind.
