Chapter 155 Preparations for Her Return

Xiaoman has been thinking about what Tu Danlin said all day long.

Wrapped in white fox fur, she leaned against the window and looked at the distant mountains motionlessly.

Upon closer inspection, the scenery of this Chiyan Valley is quite different from other places. The white snow and pine waves, the misty mountains, the lava red river, and the sulfur fountain, the cold and hot complement each other, which is very magical.

The maids brought the washed grapes to the house, Tu Danlin took them with his own hands, put them next to Xiao Man, peeled them one by one and put them in the small jade bowl.

Xiaoman looked at the bowl of green and crystal-clear grapes, his eyes moved, and he asked Tu Danlin, "The reason why you treat me so well is because you think I'm that Zhihua Yuanjun, right?"

Tu Danlin continued to peel the grapes, the juice flowed down his pale knuckles like a drop of tear.

"You are so proficient at peeling grapes, did you peel them for her a long time ago?" Xiao Man tilted his head to observe Tu Danlin's expression.

"Eat quickly." Tu Danlin pushed the small jade bowl in front of Xiao Man, got up and took a square towel, and wiped off the juice on his fingers.

"I have never figured out why you must put your body in the secret room of the Beirong Palace. Now I seem to have figured it out."

Tu Danlin sat back beside Xiao Man in surprise, looked into her eyes seriously, and asked, "What did you figure out?"

"You didn't predict that someone would resurrect you, but you predicted that I would be born in the royal family of Beirong, right?" Xiao Man raised his hand, tore off the white cloth from Tu Danlin's eyes, and looked straight into his white eyes , trying to see his emotions clearly.

Tu Danlin didn't expect her to do this, and immediately avoided her eyes.

"The Beibei royal family will give birth to countless children from generation to generation, and your lifespan is not enough to wait for each child to be born, and you can't use grapes and rice cakes to test whether they are me. So you thought of a way to kill two birds with one stone , find the perfect way to preserve the corpse, and leave a detailed explanation of the revival formation beside me, and when I appear, I will take the initiative to find you and resurrect you."

Tu Danlin sighed softly, and nodded: "All of these guesses are correct, but they are not complete. Think again."

Xiaoman thought for a while, and then said: "After solving the preservation of the corpse and the manual of spells, the next step is to solve the problem of how to preserve your soul after your death. So you took in an apprentice and taught him some witchcraft technique, and ordered him to seal up your soul after your death, and left it in the secret room of Beirong Palace."

"That's right, what else?"

"With a reliable apprentice, the next step is to find a way to guide me to find you. The dead souls in that glazed bead are not yours, but a group of enslaved guides. Except for this one discovered by me, no one on the mainland of Kyushu You must have cast countless glass beads. Once the glass beads are broken, the dead soul will guide the holder to the secret room. Not everyone can enter the secret room. You have designed a mechanism, only with my Only blood can open it. But I don’t understand, why would I use blood to open the mechanism if you are sure?”

Even if there are no pupils in Tu Danlin's eyes, he can still see the color of approval in his eyes: "Remember what I told you, when I first met Zhihua, she was going to extradite my soul, but she didn't do that. Do. At that time, I was seriously injured. If I don’t heal in time, even if she doesn’t kill me, I will die. So Zhihua cut the palm of my hand with the soul knife, dripped her blood into my mouth, and cast a spell to seal it my injuries."

"Later, I found out that she used her own blood to draw talismans and to set up formations. I asked her why, and she said that she was a god conceived by the aura between Huaijiang Mountain and Yaoshui. When she saw the sable that was dying, she fed it with her own blood. Unexpectedly, the sable recovered quickly after drinking the divine blood. Since then, she knew that her blood was miraculous, and she also cultivated it at that time. got into the bad habit of using blood as law."

Xiao Man realized something, curled her lips and said, "It's indeed a bad habit." She finally understood the reason why she was so slippery with cutting her hand with a knife.

Taking advantage of Xiao Man's inattention, Tu Danlin took Xiao Man's hand with one hand and gently held it in his hand, and smoothed her palm with the other hand.

"Look, as expected, this bad habit is deep down and cannot be changed." His cold fingertips touched the scar on Xiaoman's palm, the cool and numb touch made Xiaoman completely forget to pull back his hand.

"That's all I can guess." Xiao Man asked.

"It's almost there, you guessed it right." Tu Danlin took out a small bottle of ointment from nowhere, unscrewed the cap, dabbed a little on the scar on Xiaoman's palm, "I specially prepared this ointment Yes, it can remove the scars on your hands. Don’t cut your hands with a knife casually in the future.”

"Well," Xiaoman nodded obediently, "Is there anything else I haven't guessed?"

Tu Danlin gently blew on her palm, and then continued: "Although everything was prepared at that time, I was still worried about changes in the royal family of Beirong, so I told my apprentices to assist and monitor the Shuofeng clan from generation to generation. I was also worried that other countries would attack Beirong, so I married a daughter of the Tudan family to the most valiant man in Kyushu, that is, the little prince of the Nanyi Helian family."

"Oh my god, you did it on purpose to make the whole Beirong Helian family suffer from a genetic disease!" Xiao Man couldn't believe his ears.

"At that time, only the men of the Nanyi Helian royal family could compete with the Beirong Tudan family in combat power, so the heirs born from the combination of these two bloodlines can have the strongest combat power. When I am away, protect the northern Rong royal family, protect you who is about to be born." Tu Danlin held Xiaoman's hand like holding a clear spring, and was careful not to let it flow away, "And because this disease has one advantage, it will stop Helian's rebellion. thoughts——if people have a limited lifespan, they will definitely avoid risks and use time as much as possible to realize their own value.”

"But in that case, the heirs of the Helian clan will have to endure illness for the rest of their lives, which is too cruel." Xiaoman's tone was a little angry because of disapproval.

Tu Danlin lowered his head, covered his eyes with long eyelashes, and said with a soft sigh: "You are right, it is indeed cruel to do so, but it was my last choice at the time. I finally knew that you would be born here, So I want to do my best to protect you, at least until I come back to life, you will be able to live comfortably in a powerful royal family."

His simple explanation was full of powerlessness, and Xiaoman realized that everything he did was unwavering, and his anger disappeared, and he said to him: "But you would never have imagined that I was not born in Beirong, but followed my mother. He was exiled to Dapei, where he was fostered by the Dapeilei clan."

"It's because I didn't plan well enough to protect you. Is it hard to live in Dapei?" Tu Danlin's tone was distressed and regretful, and his gentleness seemed to melt the wind and snow outside the window.

Xiaoman shook his head: "Fortunately, because Lei Yuxiu is always with me."

Tu Danlin's hands tightened, hurting Xiaoman's fingers.

Xiaoman withdrew his hand reflexively, took a deep breath, "It hurts."

Tu Danlin quickly apologized and said, "I'm sorry, I didn't mean it."

"Anyway, thank you for everything you have done for me." Xiaoman said seriously, "But no matter what relationship I have with Zhihua, I am Chang Xiaoman now. So you must understand one thing, you All the beauty and obsessions in memory are only her, not me. Please don't take me as Zhihua, okay?"

Hearing what she said, Tu Danlin didn't make any rebuttal, but just smiled calmly: "I know you are Chang Xiaoman, and I won't treat you as her."

Xiaoman didn't expect that he would accept the complaint that he was not Zhihua so easily, and gradually felt at ease.

"Xiao Man, are you really in love with that man named Lei Yuxiu?" Tu Danlin asked suddenly.

Xiaoman replied honestly: "Yeah."

Tu Danlin sighed, raised his hand to touch Xiaoman's bangs: "Even if he doesn't love you, don't you care?"

"What?" Xiao Man asked in surprise.

Tu Danlin stood up and stretched out his hand in front of her: "Come with me, I will tell you who the person he loves is actually."
