The night was as cold as water.
Under the silent night sky, the cold moonlight shone on the ground and reflected two long shadows.
"Useless?"
Su Li smiled sweetly and said, "Old man, it has nothing to do with you whether what I do is useless or not. If you just want to say this, I'm sorry that I can't accompany you. "
The old beggar was slightly stunned. He seemed to be surprised that Su Li was still so rude to him after knowing some secrets. But he soon recovered and laughed.
"Little girl, you're right. I, an old beggar, can't control you. You can do whatever you want! Perhaps in the end, this old beggar will lend you a helping hand. "
"Help me?"
Su Li raised her eyebrows and asked with a chuckle, "Can you help me to deal with the old ancestor of the Xiaoshen Palace?"
The old beggar's face immediately turned green. He was almost choked by Su Li. Then he turned around and slipped away!
"Little girl, remember … there are no absolutes in the world. If you can grasp the opportunity, you might be able to … come back from the dead!"
…
"Come back from the dead … come back from the dead?"
Su Li held a handful of warm bath water with one hand and frowned slightly. She murmured a few words and couldn't understand it. Her current situation was just as the old beggar said. It was a complete dead end.
If she wanted to get a chance of survival, she must master a trace of the natural law.
But the natural law was unfathomable. How could she find a trace of the law and master it?
It didn't sound possible at all.
"…"
A slight sigh echoed in the silent bath room.
After Su Li came back, Ling Li could finally calm down to deal with the affairs of the cult that piled up in the past half month. But when he looked through the intelligence sent by the Tianya House every day, he became more and more suspicious.
The Nanjiang Country, which had frequent changes, suddenly became quiet and sent compensation materials and tributes to the frontier barracks?
It seemed that they wanted to stop the war?
"Qinglan, do you know what's going on?"
Ling Li handed the file to Ling Qinglan. Ling Qinglan rolled his eyes and didn't take it. He said, "Even if you care about Su Li, you should at least take a look at the frontier intelligence sent every day. The news is out of date. Look at the latest."
Then, Ling Qinglan took out another file from the table. Ling Li took it and immediately opened it. He glanced at the contents. Suddenly, his face changed slightly and he was shocked.
The monarch of Nanjiang Country was changed?!
"When did this happen?"
Ling Qinglan frowned and shook his head. He said, "I don't know. The strength of the Lu Family is weaker than that of the Wu Family and the Ma Family in Yunjing City. It is impossible for them to defeat the Wei Family."
Ling Li said yes. According to the change of events, the change of the lord of Nanjiang Country should coincide with the time when he went to save his Second Brother.
"I suspect that it was the Joyful Union Sect who did it!"
Ling Qinglan waved the folding fan in his hand and said solemnly, "A few days ago, the brothers lurking in the Lianshi Cult sent back the news that the Lord of the Lianshi Cult suddenly took a group of elites and went deep into the Mystery Forbidden Land. So far, there has been no news. The rest of the people in the Lianshi Cult either left or dispersed.
He's no longer a threat. "
"The Mystery Forbidden Land …"
Ling Li thought for a while. He had heard of that dangerous place. Since the Lianshi Cult went in, they couldn't come out in a short time. There was no need to worry about it. What he should pay attention to now was why the Lianshi Cult ventured into the Mystery Forbidden Land?
"It is impossible for the Hehuan Sect to force the Lianshi Cult to this extent. With the strength of the Hehuan Sect, it is still not enough to bring down the Wei Family …"
Ling Li rubbed his eyebrows with a headache. He didn't pay attention to the intelligence for more than ten days. He didn't expect that the situation in the world had changed beyond recognition.
"Investigate! First, investigate what happened in Tiangu City half a month ago. Send someone to secretly test the details of the Lu Family. At the same time, pay close attention to the movements of the Hehuan Sect. If it is the old Lord Ye who did it, it will not stop here! "
Ling Qinglan was shocked and nodded heavily.
There was no omission in Ling Li's decision. With his order, the huge and tight machine of the Yinmo Cult immediately ran. But the Hehuan Sect seemed to disappear. No matter how Ling Li searched, he couldn't find any clues about the Hehuan Sect.
Ling Li had to give up helplessly. There was no war in the frontier, so he didn't need to be distracted by Ling Ping. He concentrated on dealing with the Dongfang Family.
With Su Li by his side, time passed unconsciously. In a blink of an eye, another year passed.
Mammy Li counted with her fingers. The miss and the son-in-law had been married for more than a year and a half. It had been four years since she rescued Su Li from the wooden house outside the Dasu Town.
Time really passed by quickly!
Mammy Li sighed. Suddenly, she saw Qiu Meng leave the East Courtyard with a worried face, followed by a doctor.
"Madam comes to urge again. It's no wonder. They have been married for so long, but there is no movement in the belly of the miss. If it were me … I would also be worried!"
Mammy Li muttered strangely and went back to the kitchen to prepare snacks. She had been with Su Li for the longest time. Although she didn't learn much about the skills of the miss, the snacks she made were much more delicate than those of other cooks. Madam Dowager and Madam Dowager liked them the most.
…
This year, there was not much change in the Dahan Country. Although the health of the emperor was getting worse year by year, since the Fifth Prince was appointed as the crown prince, the domestic situation was much more stable than in previous years. As for the Tianji Country and the Nanjiang Country, they were naturally calm. The relationship between the three countries entered an unprecedented period of harmony.
The Yinmo Cult took this opportunity to expand its strength. Both the Xuelou Cult and the Tianya House had made great progress. They even completely covered the Nanjiang Country and stepped into the territory of the Tianji Country.
In the True Spirit Realm, which was not connected to the mortal world, the situation in the Inner Realm had changed dramatically over the past year!
First of all, the Ghost Valley, the second force only inferior to the Xiaoshen Palace in the spiritual circle, suddenly announced the closure of the valley. All the disciples who were walking in the outside world also returned to the valley, and there was no sign of going out!
Rumors were everywhere in the spiritual circle. Some people said that the Ghost Valley was suddenly destroyed by a mysterious vengeful person. Some people said that the founder of the Ghost Valley returned to the valley to teach immortals, so that all the disciples were recalled. All kinds of rumors were more exaggerated than the other, and no one believed them.
Soon after, the enthronement ceremony of the Head of the Wanjian Sect overshadowed the Ghost Valley. The name of Head Wen Tingshan spread throughout the spiritual circle by holding a banquet for three days and three nights. At the same time, the wife of the Head, Ning Qing, was pregnant. It could be said to be double happiness.
Su Li asked Fang Yuan to send the congratulatory card, and she had been staying in the Ling Mansion to practice.
Finally, at a certain moment, Su Li opened her eyes, stopped running the Xuangong, and stroked her slender wrist with her fingertips.
"Foundation, there are still four thousand."
With a sigh of relief, Su Li got up, pushed the door open and went out.
The sunshine outside was quite dazzling, which made her squint. The scenery in the courtyard in front of the wing room was as lush as a year ago. The four words "extreme prosperity and then decline" appeared in Su Li's mind. Then she seemed to sense something, and her footsteps suddenly stopped.
Raising her head, she didn't know when there was a figure beside the quiet courtyard wall.
Vicissitudes, loneliness, ragged clothes, disheveled hair and dirty face, like a lonely ghost. The familiar face full of wrinkles, at this moment, exuded a completely different gloomy pneuma.
It was him, Qi Xianqing.
"Master."
Su Li's pupils shrank slightly, and she called softly. Qi Xianqing immediately responded. His figure flashed to the front of Su Li. He stared at Su Li with his turbid old eyes, and said nothing.
At this moment, Mammy Li passed by the door and saw Su Li standing in the courtyard. She immediately smiled and said hello, "Miss, you finally know to come out. Basking in the sun is good for your health."
Su Li was slightly stunned. She glanced at Qi Xianqing, who was still staring at her, and then looked up at Mammy Li outside the courtyard door. From that angle, she should see Qi Xianqing's back.
"Miss, what's wrong with you?"
Mammy Li's voice interrupted her thinking. Su Li came to her sense and shook her head, "Nothing. I am thinking about something. You can go ahead."
"Okay!"
Mammy Li didn't doubt her and disappeared outside the door.
Su Li's sight returned to Qi Xianqing. After a long silence, she suddenly said,
"Ghost Clan?"
Qi Xianqing's eyes fluctuated. It seemed that he had no feet. He floated to the side of Su Li. His voice was hoarse. He was totally different from the gentle and elegant old doctor in those days.
"You know Ghost Clan. Who told you?"
"Tantai Feng."
Su Li simply replied. She was more and more sure that her "cheap master" in front of her had already remembered his identity.
Even if she lied, with his ability, he could soon find it out.
"Haha … It turns out to be him."
Qi Xianqing laughed wildly, and his eyes burst with unforgettable hatred, "He also had a part in destroying my Ghost Clan!"
Su Li was silent.
Qi Xianqing was stunned. He suddenly showed a mocking expression on his face and kept laughing, "I forgot that you are also a Human Clan, hehe …"
Su Li slightly pursed her lips and slightly lowered her chin, "Senior, why do you come here?"
"What did you call me?"
When Qi Xianqing heard Su Li's words, he was immediately angry and asked angrily.
Su Li's expression didn't change. She said in a deep voice, "I just …"
"Just what?"
Qi Xianqing interrupted Su Li and said gloomily, "People of Ghost Clan pay attention to single-mindedness. Since I have recognized you as my disciple, you have to be my disciple for a lifetime. You can't regret it!"
Did Ghost Clan have such a custom?
Su Li was speechless for a while and didn't know what to say. She had expected that if she solved the matter of Ghost Valley, Qi Xianqing would definitely come to her. But she didn't expect that it was Qi Xianqing who had recovered his memory.
"Lass, take this thing!"
Qi Xianqing turned his palm and took out a quaint black ring from nowhere. Su Li took it with doubt and looked at it a little. There was no pattern on the surface of the ring. The texture was a little rough, like a stone surface.
