Encounter Taotie by chance at the beginning and practice longevity skills

Luoluo Village.

Lei Ze looked at the three tombstones and fell into deep thought.

One of them was the one he had just set up, that of Zhao Wuya.

The other two are Zhao Wuya's father, Zhao Qingshan, and Zhao Wuya's mother, Song Chenwan.

The sun shone on the quiet village, but it didn't bring any warmth.

"Ah sneeze... The weather here is getting colder and colder. It's almost winter."

An old man with gray hair walked over slowly, leaning on a cane and talking. The old man's face was engraved with the traces of time, but his eyes were clear.

The old man looked at Lei Ze and the others and said with a smile:

"Hey, it's new. Besides the old man and me, there are people who will come to see Mr. and Mrs. Zhao."

"Hey, why is there an extra tombstone?" The old man took a closer look and found that there was an extra tombstone behind the original tombstone. The old man looked at it and murmured:

"Zhao Wuya's tomb, Zhao Wuya, Zhao Wuya, seems to be a boy who was spotted by an immortal more than 10 years ago. He must be the eldest son of Zhao and his wife. He is dead anyway."

Lei Ze turned around, smiled at the old man, and replied in a gentle voice:

"Old man, Zhao Wuya was killed before and asked me to help take care of Zhao Qingshan's family. But the old couple have passed away. When did they leave."

The old man sighed and replied: "Hey, that was still a tragic past."

The old man found a stone from the side, sat down slowly, and then paused, as if reminiscing.

After a while, the old man continued: "Before, Zhao Wuya was taken away by a well-dressed man. The man gave Qingshan 50 taels of gold. Seeing that his son had good bones, he wanted to take him to cultivate immortality. "

"Qingshan was quite happy and agreed immediately."

"Since their eldest son left, Qingshan and Chenwan have been doting on their youngest daughter Zhao Qianyu. With these 50 taels of gold, the family can eat and drink without having to work so hard."

"This made me envious at the time."

When the old man said this, he sighed and swallowed. Lei Ze and the other three didn't interrupt, and just waited.

The old man continued: "As the days pass by, by the time Qianyu turns 16, she will have become a tall and graceful girl."

"It's time to talk about marriage. Qingshan thinks that Li Ming, the owner of the village, is good, and he intends to bring them together."

"Li Ming is a diligent and honest young man, and Qingshan and Chenwan are also very optimistic about him. Li Ming and Qianyu have been together for a few days and they think they are okay. Everyone thinks they will get married."

There was a trace of regret in the old man's eyes and he continued:

"But as fate would have it, just a few days before they were to get engaged, a convoy of nobles passed by our village. There was a noble lady in the convoy who fell in love with Qianyu and said she was beautiful and wanted to take her away to be her Personal maid.”

Lei Ze frowned slightly when he heard this: "Has Qianyu been taken away?"

The old man nodded, and the expression on his face became a little gloomy: "Yes, he was taken away by force. The noble lady was very domineering. She gave Qingshan some money and wanted to take Qianyu away. Qingshan is willing, come on The first theory, and then he was injured by the two guards around the noble lady."

"Li Ming was so angry that he picked up a hoe and wanted to avenge his father-in-law, but he was beaten on the spot until he vomited blood."

"After that, Li Ming refused to accept it and went to the city to find Mr. Qingtian, but in the end there seemed to be no news."

"After this incident, Qingshan's health became worse and worse. He died not long after, and Chen Wan also followed Qingshan."

"Oh, Lao Zhao and I are the only two who have a good relationship. We always come to this monument to talk about it."

The old man's voice was full of sentimentality. Listening to this story, Xianmeng's eyes showed deep sympathy. She looked at the old man and said:

"Old man, do you remember which family the noble lady and her motorcade belong to?"

The old man said: "It should be from the Ximen family. Qianyu should have been taken away at the age of 17 at that time, and he should be 19 now. Hey, a young girl, what a good age..."

"I know you were entrusted by that boy Wuya, but you still have to judge the situation. How can you three fight against that big family?"

After saying that, the old man stood up, patted the dust on his butt, and walked away on his crutches.

The general watched the old man go and asked loudly: "Old man, what is your name?"

But the old man didn't seem to hear him, and just continued walking slowly until his figure disappeared on the small road in the village.

Xianmeng looked at Lei Ze and said, "Brother Xianren, are we going to see Zhao Qianyu?"

Lei Ze said: "Let's go, there's no danger anyway. Besides, I promised Zhao Wuya before I died. Let's go and have a look tomorrow."

The general looked happy: "Okay, let's go into the city."

At the same time, Ximen’s family in Chihei City.

Ximen Xiaofan looked at his subordinates who had just come in to report with a proud expression.

"Well done, this matter has not been leaked to anyone. The court has been tightening investigations recently, and I don't want to ruin my future career as an official in the imperial city because of this discovery."

The subordinate replied respectfully: "Don't worry, sir, no one knows except you, me and the girl named Zhao Qianyu."

Ximen Xiaofan asked: "How do you deal with that Zhao Qianyu?"

The subordinate said: "Don't worry, sir, she has been sent to prison and will be beheaded tomorrow together with that one and Long Yingnan. I gave her a bottle of poison before she went to prison. Her throat is already broken. I'm speechless."

Ximen Xiaofan waved to his subordinates and said, "Ma Tonggai, come here, I will reward you with a treasure."

Ma Tonggai walked forward happily, but what was waiting for him was a ruthless dagger that pierced his chest.

"Why...why?" Blood flowed from Ma Tonggai's mouth and he looked straight at Ximen Xiaofan.

Ximen Xiaofan sneered: "Thank you, let the truth be completely buried with your death."
