Chapter 89
Chapter 89
The Guifang tribe lived scattered in the deep forest on the south of the Lingnan border, and Yu Ran led the way, and it took several days to reach the territory of the Guifang tribe.
Immediately someone came up to greet them, speaking a language that Xie Tangru could not understand.Yu Ran nodded, and looked sideways at Xie Tangru: "I'll take you to see... him first."
When mentioning Xie Tangru's grandfather in the clan area, Yu Ran's tone was rather fearful.
It seems that the movements of the entire Guifang clan cannot escape the influence of the Patriarch of the Jin family.
Xie Tangru nodded noncommittally.
The two circled around again and came to a wooden house behind the forest.Yu Ran stepped forward and knocked on the door three times, and after a while, knocked twice.
The door opened.
A hoarse voice came from inside: "Come in."
Standard Central Plains Mandarin.
Xie Tangru knew who he was speaking to.He took a step forward and passed Yu Ran just in time, "I'm not qualified to go in, so I'll go first."
Before she finished speaking, Yu Ran quickly disappeared into the dense forest, only the silver headdress reflected a bit of piercing light.
Xie Tangru opened the door and went in, looking around the room without any trace, the first person who entered was a man who was stroking the feathers of a pigeon.He wore clothes from the Central Plains that were completely different from Yu Ran and the others, with a crown and jade, like the most upright and elegant nobleman of the Central Plains.Looking at his appearance, he is still a young man of the right age, but there are faint lines on his corners, showing the fact that he is not young.
Xie Tangru was startled, he already understood the identity of this person in his heart.
——Yu Ran's grandfather mentioned many times, and Xie Tangruo has a blood relationship with Xie Tang.
The last patriarch of the Jin family, a nominal relative he has never met.
It's just that he didn't expect that he didn't look like an old man who was dying, but he looked very young instead.Xie Tang slandered, if you put the other party and his father together, you really don't know who is the son-in-law and who is the father-in-law.
As the thought flashed by, the man's strength tightened suddenly, the pigeon hissed in pain, and then died.His expression was indifferent, and he couldn't see that he was still fondling the pigeon tenderly just a moment ago.
After wiping his fingers, the man noticed that Xie Tangru seemed to be pointing at the stool in front of the round table, "Do it."
Xie Tangru sat down unceremoniously, and cut straight to the point, "I don't know why your old man invited me all the way?"
A trace of nostalgia flashed across his brows, he smiled, and said Wen Ya: "You and Lian Yu are not very similar, but you are very similar to Ah Chu."
Xie Tangru was stunned for a moment to realize that the "Achu" he was referring to was the young master of the Guifang clan.His mother's biological "father".
"You don't have to be so wary of me." He didn't care about Xie Tangru's guarded attitude, "I'm a loner, I just want to talk to someone."
"I can promise that when you return to Beijing, I will hand over the [-] troops from Lingnan to you." He made himself a cup of tea, and he behaved like a family of Fengya from the Central Plains. He was gentle and calm, and he could barely see "" in Yu Ran's mouth. "Madman", "You are willing to come to Lingnan, isn't it just to solve this hidden danger for Shang Qingyao?"
Xie Tangru's body was like a tight bow, every move unconsciously revealed a bit of defense against the person in front of her.After pondering for a moment, he asked cautiously, "I heard from Yu Ran that you asked her to bring Jianshuang back. Why?"
"Jian Shuang?" He raised his eyebrows, his expression was inadvertently similar to that of Xie Tangru, and he suddenly realized: "You mean the girl your mother took away back then."
"It's nothing, I'm just curious about what kind of child your mother is raising. You don't want to come back to Lingnan. I, a widowed old man, always want to find a suitable child to take care of me. It just so happens that the Guifang clan wants an heir. That girl was raised by your mother, it's just right."
As for the fight between Yu Ran and Yu Sheng, it was nothing more than a low-level trick for him to adjust his mood in his spare time.
He gave hope to the Guifang clan to fight for power, but he planned to crush it in the end.
Xie Tangru vaguely guessed his thoughts from these two words, and quickly pursed the corners of his mouth.
"But you suddenly changed your mind."
"Since you are reluctant to let that girl come back, I, as an elder, of course don't want to force others to do things to me." He picked up the teacup with a smile, his tone calm and gentle.
This absurd and illogical statement, if it is said from someone else's mouth, it is impossible for people to believe half a word.But when it comes to this unpredictable lunatic in front of him, it makes people feel that it is not completely impossible.
Xie Tangru lowered his head: "Thank you very much, Ge □□shirt. Then... I wonder if you know my mother's whereabouts?"
The smile on his lips faded away, and Xie Tangru's image was reflected in Xie Tangru's image.
"Didn't we already know that your mother has been dead for many years." His tone was flat, his expression seemed to be hooked into some long-term memory, "Lian Yu's character is not like me, nor like Ah Chu. Only This matter is very similar to Ah Chu."
The same infatuation does not change.
"You should still remember that your father was seriously injured when he was young, but it didn't take long for him to heal."
"My mother..." Xie Tangru flashed something in his mind, and almost subconsciously blurted out, "Longevity Gu!"
The longevity Gu that the Guifang clan relies on to continue their lives.
Her mother dug out the longevity Gu and planted it in Wei Guogong's body, so that Wei Guogong, who was dying at the time, was able to recover from his injuries.
Seeing that Xie Tangru wanted to understand, he nodded, "Lian Yu is different from others in the Guifang clan. She experienced a lot of twists and turns during her birth, so she was able to continue her life by relying on the longevity Gu. After giving out the longevity Gu, her body quickly deteriorated. "
Death has become a matter of course.
Xie Tang was drooping, the back of his hand was tense, and there was a touch of bloodless white on his fingertips.
"Yu Ran mentioned to me that after using the longevity Gu to save the life of a dying person, the person who was planted with the Gu will not live long." But his father's health is still very good, so after Yu Sheng's death, After the incident, Xie Tangru didn't think about longevity Gu either.
"Longevity Gu is the secret of the Guifang Clan, and Yu Ran only knows superficially." He sneered, "Although Lian Yu doesn't like the methods of the Guifang Clan, he knows more than Yu Ran, a little girl who only knows a few things. The activity of longevity Gu is suppressed, and the absorption of vitality from the host will be slowed down, not to mention that Lian Yu has provided it with his own blood and vitality for so long, so it will not be a problem for your father to live to be a hundred years old."
He stared at Xie Tangru, Zhu moved: "In terms of feelings, not only Lian Yu is like Ah Chu, but you are also very similar to him."
He always needs to be more patient with all people and things related to Yu Chu.
Xie Tangru's smile remained unchanged, but he somewhat disapproved of his words, "Your Excellency seems to know me very well when you say that."
An understatement, a veiled temptation.
He did not deny this sentence, but continued following Xie Tangru's words, as if the god had crossed the long river of ancient time, and the vicissitudes were far away: "I did know you a long time ago."
Xie Tangru's expression suddenly turned cold. The weight of this sentence is not ordinary, and his attitude also made Xie Tang unpredictable. He tried jokingly: "I have never met Your Excellency before. Is it possible that Your Excellency said so?" Did you see me in a dream?"
"Dreams?" He shook his head, "Those were never dreams, but the past lives that actually happened between you and Shang Qingyao."
