Fengzi, who liked to grow gardenias since she was a child, disappeared with her gardenia field when the fire disappeared.

No one saw her after that.

Her life experience, origin, background, and final whereabouts have become unsolvable mysteries.

"Yin Chun, you said that Fengzi, who is it?" Xie Hengyan lay back on the bed, still seriously said, "Before Tang...that, Rong Shilian said, the planting notes were left by Fang Yan, but Now if you look at the gardenia field, it doesn’t seem to be the case anymore.”

Yin Chun was leaning beside the pillow, probably after a long time, Fang turned his head and asked Xie Hengyan: "... Is Fang Yan a man or a woman?"

Xie Hengyan shook his head, and said: "It's hard to say, anyway, I just think that he has multiple identities, he comes and goes without a trace, and he can't tell the difference at all."

Yin Chun paused, then suddenly called him: "Xie Hengyan."

Xie Hengyan: "What?"

"Now, I have an idea..." Yin Zhu hesitated, "but it's ridiculous."

Xie Hengyan said: "...I also have a ridiculous idea."

The two looked at each other, and Xie Hengyan knew in her heart that they probably wanted to go together.Even so, Yin Chun did not directly explain this idea, and Xie Hengyan did not open his mouth to ask more questions. After a while, he raised his hand, held it in Yin Chun's wrist, and said in a low voice: "Yin Chun, I always feel... ...I have to go home after this matter is dealt with."

"Go home?" Yin Chun said in a dazed voice, "What home are you going back to?"

Xie Hengyan said: "Tongjing Island."

Yin Chun quickly turned his backhand and clasped Xie Hengyan's shoulder, still stiffly said: "What are you doing there?"

"Hey... don't get excited!" Xie Hengyan hurriedly said, "I only said to go back and have a look, but I didn't say that I won't come back!"

Yin Chun said again: "What do you want to see?!"

"I just want... to go back and see Xie Cong. Since the previous farewell at sea, I seem to... have never seen him again, not even in my dreams." Xie Hengyan slowed down his voice and said with a little reassurance. , "No matter what, he is also my father. You said that in this world...is there any reason for a son to deny his father?"

Yin Chu shouted, "Don't go!"

Xie Hengyan: "Why?"

Yin Chung said angrily, "You take him as an old man, may I ask when did he treat you like a son—before Xie Cong treated you like that, why don't you ignore the past and go back to find him?"

"Oh, you...don't say that, Xie Cong..." Xie Hengyan said halfway, but when he saw Yin Zhu's eyes this time, he couldn't continue - he knew that Yin Chu was afraid, Afraid of losing him because of it.

But why did Xie Hengyan think otherwise?The final truth is always right in front of our eyes, but it is covered with a layer of mist for no reason, so that people outside can never see it clearly, so we can only be kept in the dark, and we can never get out.

"I just heard that the two of us have been away for a whole year, and today's Tongjing Island is not what it used to be. It has long been reduced to an uninhabited desert island." Xie Hengyan said, "I can't let it go... It's me there anyway. hometown, so I want to go back and check to see if those rumors are true or not."

"...That's good." Yin Chun took his hands and said firmly, "Let me go with you, and I will be where you are from now on."

Xie Hengyan thought for a while, but changed the subject, and said to Yin Chun: "Let's not talk about this first... Yin Chun, I have another item here, you have to look at it."

Yin Chun asked, "What object?"

Xie Hengyan stood up straight, glanced left and right, and after confirming that no one was listening outside the door, behind the window, Fang slowly reached into his sleeve and brought out a yellowed book nearly half a finger wide.

"Just now, Mr. Qu asked me to go to a place. All the books in the entire Feishi Village are stored there, including the records of the marriages and marriages between the various families in the past few decades." Xie Hengyan said, "... guess what? What did I see?"

Yin Zhu's focus was not here: "What did he ask you to do there?"

"Don't ask this first, come here quickly and have a look at this thing - before I left, I slipped it into my sleeve specially... I almost didn't let him notice it." Xie Hengyan said, turning over the slightly damaged paper. Kai——Yin Chu approached and saw a line of small characters densely packed in between. It was obvious that he had been thinking about it for a long time, and most of the handwriting was almost blurred, but he could barely recognize the names of some people.

"You rummaged through these things in the village, are you sure no one noticed?" Yin Chun was surprised, "What's written here?... It's not clear at all."

"Hey, you, why don't you pay attention to the key points?"

Xie Hengyan let out a long sigh, and while turning the pages of the printing cup, he said to him very clearly: "What I want to tell you is that a long time ago, their Feishi Village had an in-law relationship with a certain family surnamed Mu. You Come here, look at this man..."

Yin Chun shifted his eyes in response, but saw that Xie Hengyan's index finger was pointing at a very strange but familiar name - Xie Kaiyun.

This person was one of the well-known traveling doctors who traveled between villages and towns in the south for a long time decades ago.Later, due to a coincidence, she married the daughter of the Qu family as his wife, and the two families have been friends for many years because of this - but there is no detailed record in the book about whether there is any contact after that.

"Mu Kaiyun, the people with the surname Mu behind him live near the water. They have been doctors for generations. They are used to traveling around the world, helping the world and saving people for a hundred years." He read aloud, "His family background has a long history, and most of them belong to famous families, and they often have contacts with princes and nobles in the court."

"...Why did it fall in the end?" Yin Chun asked.

"I didn't say that." Xie Hengyan turned the booklet over and over several times, finally shook his head, and said to Yin, "Perhaps when the record was made, the Mu family hadn't yet declined... As for why it disappeared later... If there is no trace, no definite information can be obtained at all, so it is unknown.”

Yin Chun said again: "Did you say where you settled down?"

"I didn't say anything, maybe it's from a family of traveling doctors and doesn't have a fixed residence." Xie Hengyan said, "I looked back to see if there was anything else...Maybe there is an unexpected discovery?"

While he was speaking, Gu Zi reached out his hand and pointed towards the last page of the book—but the moment his knuckles lifted the page, a puff of white and greenish thick smoke dispersed , rushed out from the bottom of the book, and was about to rush towards Xie Hengyan's face in an instant!

"Be careful!" Yin Zhu suddenly raised his voice.At the next moment, with one hand, he exerted force suddenly, and while blocking Xie Hengyan, he closed the book and threw it flying through the air!

——Accompanied by a long and clear sound, the opened paper flapped on the thin carved window in the house, and a snow-white smoke burst out instantly, spreading overwhelmingly within a short time, almost occupying the The whole narrow and cramped bedroom.

"The smoke is poisonous! Don't breathe!" Yin Zhu whispered, "Grab my hand... come here!"

"Print pour!"

Xie Hengyan suddenly became panicked. The lights in the room were already dim, but now a large cloud of gray-white smoke rushed towards his face, which added an extra layer of haze to the blurred vision.

Xie Hengyan could hardly see the things around him. In the chaos, he only heard Yin Chun talking all the time. The two stood still. Xie Hengyan desperately grabbed Yin Chun's wrist. He was so nervous that his whole body became stiff for a moment, and even his breathing seemed to slow down a bit. shoot.

After a while, several faint and invisible beams of light suddenly ignited from the center of the room, and three or five pieces of snow-white talisman papers around them fluttered in the wind—Xie Hengyan subconsciously buried his face in Yin Chun's arms. It is a barrier propped up by Yin Chu using spells. As long as they stay within the effective range of the spells, they can be completely isolated from the outer layer of smoke.

"Yin Chun..." Xie Hengyan tremblingly said, "Why did this happen all of a sudden?"

"Shh." She gestured to him to silence him.

The two turned their heads at the same time, and saw that at this moment, outside the wooden window that was hazy with smoke, a star and a half of dazzling fire suddenly ignited, and in this dark and heavy night, it was instantly surrounded by a sea of ​​sparkling stars.

——When they finally came to their senses, they realized that it was not Xinghai, but a group of villagers gathered in Feishi Village. At that time, everyone was holding a bunch of torches, and they were facing the direction of Xie Hengyan and Yin Chun's bedroom. , glaring at him completely calmly.

Yin Chu took a step forward and opened the inner wooden window half a slit - the first face that came into view was Qu Jian's old, grizzled, and even facial features covered with countless fine lines and folds .

Qu Jian didn't say a word, and the villagers holding torches behind him also remained silent, but their expressions were inexplicably strange and indifferent, with strong repulsion and resistance that could not be expressed.

"Mr. Qu, Mr. Qu!" Xie Hengyan said in a daze, "Why do you..."

However, he didn't finish his sentence, because all of them focused their attention on Yin Chuan's unusually familiar face in front of the window.

"Not long after today's evening, I suddenly returned to Yangcheng... a message came." Qu Jian's eyes did not move, he fixed his gaze on Yin Chu's face, and said almost word by word, "Qu Xianlong Doctor Qu, who was originally from Feishi Village, saved countless lives in his life. Now he is nearly ninety years old, and he should return to his hometown to take care of his old age. Do you know who is the murderer behind the scenes?"

Xie Hengyan didn't speak, neither did Yin Chun.Finally, with trembling hands, Qu Jian reached into his arms, took out a piece of thin paper with countless wrinkles, and slowly spread it out in front of everyone.

Afterwards, there was that one-stroke-by-stroke, painted with sharp and indifferent facial features, and the reward wanted order with the final amount increasing repeatedly.

"Young man." Qu Jian suddenly turned his eyes away, and turned to look at Xie Hengyan beside him with a tense expression.His eyes were cloudy, and the complex emotions in them were even more obscure:

"Just now, those words I told you...how much have you really listened to?"
