After the Immortal Disappeared

Chapter 827: Bailie Past

He Chunhua smiled and said: "You are a lucky general, and dad still needs to rely on you."

"In the past year and a half without me, you have been rising steadily." He Lingchuan smiled back, "You yourself are a blessed person."

He Chunhua's smile faded slightly: "Why are you so afraid? Chuan'er, don't you want to go back?"

go back? "Go back where?"

Is He Chunhua referring to the Panlong ruins? He Lingchuan pondered these two words. Why did He Chunhua say he didn't want to "go back"?

"Let's go, my father needs you." He Chunhua's voice was soft, but he winked at Zhao Qinghe.

Zhao Qinghe waved his hand, and more than forty people stepped forward to surround He Lingchuan.

But Qiu Hu had been paying attention to the movement here, and when he saw it, he rushed into the crowd with his fellow disciples, protecting He Lingchuan in the middle.

The situation on both sides became tense immediately.

Qiu Hu said coldly: "What do you want to do to the special envoy?"

The word "special envoy" is intended to remind He Chunhua that the boy in front of him is not only his eldest son, but also the supervisory envoy sent by Rongshan!

Persecuting He Lingchuan is jeopardizing the relationship between Ronshan and Yuan Kingdom!

The Yuan Kingdom is still borrowing money to fight the war. If Rongshan pulls out all the money, what chance does the former have of winning?

"Chuan'er, Dayuan has been fighting for several years, and the refugees have been displaced." He Chunhua said with a sincere face, "Now there is a chance to end the war. How about you lend a helping hand to my father?"

If you don't go, will you be ashamed of Dayuan? He Lingchuan said slowly: "Okay, but I have a condition."

It would be great if I could go. He Chunhua felt slightly relieved: "You tell me."

"I want to know everything about Lu Xiaoyun."

As soon as the words "Lu Xiaoyun" came out, He Chunhua's cheek muscles jumped twice.

He lost his voice: "You, how did you know..."

The eldest son's words caught him off guard, and the most secret corner of his heart was torn open at once.

"How do you know she is my biological mother and not Mrs. Ying?" He Lingchuan interrupted, "Dad, there is no airtight wall in the world!"

He Chunhua was at a loss for a moment.

The eldest son's temperament changed drastically after he returned. Could it have something to do with this?

He glanced at the Chipa Plateau in the distance, and the warm wind blowing against his face calmed him down.

We have come this far, with an arrow on the string, so why should we stop moving forward?

"Okay." He said quickly, "It's all old news. If you want to hear it, I'll tell you."

After saying that, he turned around and took the lead to sit on the big rock by the water.

Only He Lingchuan followed, and everyone else took a few steps back obediently, giving the father and son space to talk.

He Chunhua put his hands on his knees and looked at his eldest son: "What do you want to know?"

"How do you recognize her?"

He Chunhua took a long breath.

"At that time, Blackwater City was still under the rule of the Andong people. I killed the compradors they supported in the city and fled into the Panlong Desert to avoid the pursuers. As a result, the wild sand season came early that year, and while fending off the pursuers, I almost died. "It killed me." He slowly recalled the past, "When I woke up again, I was lying in the Lu family's house - it was Lu Xiaoyun who dragged me out of the edge of the desert before the wind and sand came."

"In those days, there was the sound of wind and sand outside the house, and no one could get out, so she treated my injuries." He Chunhua pressed his forehead and said, "She was very good. I already knew Hong Chan at that time, but still, still... "

He Lingchuan knew what he meant by what he didn't finish.

At that time, He Chunhua was only fifteen years old. He was just a young man who had just started to fall in love. He was not as mature as he is now.

When young people are ignorant, they are always impulsive and reckless.

"We only got along for a few days before I sneaked back to Blackwater City and gathered people to expel the Anton people." He Chunhua continued, "After regaining Blackwater City, the governor of Jinzhou not only did not award me a reward, but instead threw me into prison. She was in prison for nine months. When I was released, she was in labor."

He sighed deeply: "It's a pity that she didn't pass this test and only left you to me."

The father and son looked at each other in silence.

He Lingchuan had an impulse in his heart and wanted to ask him why he used his son to reward the gods.

But these words must not be asked out of his mouth, and he also knew that this was not his own wish, but the original impulse.

"What's her origin?"

"People from Bailie." Since the eldest son already knew, He Chunhua simply stopped covering up, "She comes from a very ancient cultivating family in the east. Chuan'er, the immortal sect in ancient times, some existed in the form of sects, and some were passed down by aristocratic families. , maintained by blood ties.”

He Lingchuan nodded, he knew this.

He had read relevant records in Panlong World. In an era when spiritual energy was abundant, there were not many people who became immortals in the form of a family. The internal structure of the family was actually more complicated than that of ordinary immortal sects. The status was determined by the level of cultivation first, and then seniority was determined by blood relationship.

Everyone is related, so there is more emphasis on internal relationships and resource allocation.

After going too far, He Lingchuan returned his attention to his eyes: "So my mother comes from a famous family?"

"Yes. The Lu family's territory is named after 'Bailie'. It was very vast in the Immortal Era, but gradually shrunk after natural disasters. This coincided with the decline of the Lu family."

He Lingchuan didn't find it strange. Spiritual energy began to decline in the early Middle Ages, and the original Immortal Sect's life became increasingly difficult.

The inevitable encounter of the Lu family is just a microcosm of the tide of the times.

"Until more than 600 years ago, the Bailie area was also occupied by Bega. The Lu family had to move to a small territory in the east and continue to live today."

He Lingchuan was surprised: "Huh? Occupied by Bega?"

Why is the Northern Demon Kingdom involved again?

"Yes, Shanyu Kingdom, one of the Thirteen Demon Kingdoms, is basically the former Bailie territory." He Chunhua shook his head, "Beijia Kingdom's vast territory was snatched from other countries and Taoist sects earlier."

Shanyu Kingdom? He Lingchuan thought about it, it was basically on the easternmost side of Beijia. "Where did the Bailie people move to?"

"Most of the Bailie people stayed and accepted Beijia's rule; some followed the Lu family to move eastward, and finally settled in Donghuayuan, which is adjacent to the eastern part of Mouguo. Your mother told me that Donghuayuan was the land bought by the Lu family from a certain country a long time ago, but it became the last stronghold of the Bailie people."

He Lingchuan outlined the location on the map in his mind: "In the rear of Mouguo?"

"You can say that." He Chunhua corrected, "Between Donghuayuan and Beijia, in addition to the two small countries that are at war, there is also a huge Mouguo. The Bailie people should be scared by Beijia and don't want to contact it again."

Can't you afford to hide if you can't beat it? The Bailie people hid behind Mouguo.

He Lingchuan even thought of the special features of Mou Country:

It is the country with the most Taoist sects, and perhaps it is more tolerant of the descendants of immortals like Bailie people.

"Lu... Why did my mother come all the way to Black Water City?" Between Donghuayuan and Black Water City, there are Mou Country, two small countries, Beijia and most of Yuan Country, which can be described as more than thousands of mountains and rivers.

He Chunhua sighed: "She escaped."

"The direct line of the Lu family is weak, and the territory is also shrinking rapidly. After several generations of single-line inheritance, there was only one daughter left in your grandfather's generation, Lu Xiaoyun. But when she was twelve years old, her parents died, and the cousins ​​of the branch coveted the property of their old Lu family. Lu Xiaoyun had no one to rely on, so she had to escape."

He Lingchuan frowned: "Nephew?"

"Yes, your mother is the head of the family, and she is of a higher generation. When she was twelve years old, her cousin Lu Zhensheng was already twenty-seven years old, strong and ambitious." He Chunhua said, "She even suspected that your grandfather was killed by Lu Zhensheng. She took the opportunity to escape, otherwise she would have died."

He Lingchuan sneered: "Ha, eating the whole family."

Lu Xiaoyun is a girl, young and weak, unable to protect herself, and no one in the family is in charge of justice, but she still has property under her name. Isn't this the best interpretation of the crime of possessing a treasure?

In the face of money, some relatives will become wolves.

He Lingchuan took out a contract left by Sun Hongye and unfolded it in front of He Chunhua: "Is this contract real and valid?"

He Chunhua glanced at it and said with emotion: "So Sun Hongye found this thing. This is one of Lu Xiaoyun's relics. Qing Kingdom rented Blade Port from Bailie people decades ago for forty years. It has expired now."

He Lingchuan asked casually: "Who does this port belong to now?"

"That's not clear." He Chunhua didn't care about this. "Foreign affairs are too far away from us. But since the Bailie people are declining, it may not be so easy to get this port back. Blade Port is a natural harbor."

Speaking of this, He Chunhua pointed to the distance, "Now it seems that your mother may have a second reason to cross the ocean, that is this. Whoever controls the Dafang Pot has the power of revenge."

Blackwater City is a borderland of a weak country. If there is any attraction to the descendants of immortals, it is probably that it is adjacent to the Panlong Desert?

"So -" He Chunhua mobilized his eldest son again, "Chuan'er, you really should go to Panlong Ruins again."

He appealed to "emotion" in this way, and He Lingchuan himself was a little angry.

This old man really did everything to achieve his goal!

He nodded slowly: "Dad is right, it seems that I should go there for both emotion and reason."

He Chunhua was delighted and was about to answer, but He Lingchuan continued: "Give me something of my mother, so that I can keep it as a souvenir?"

This request was also reasonable. He Chunhua thought about it and took off a jade pendant from his waist: "This is the direct jade pendant of the Lu family, given to Xiaoyun by your grandfather; when you were born, she left it to you."

This is a piece of fine mutton-fat white jade, engraved with the word "Lu", and there is a little red mark in the middle like blood.

The jade pendant was warm to the touch, and He Lingchuan sneered secretly. Why didn't He Chunhua take out the things left by his biological mother to his original body?

Isn't it because of that little selfishness?

He gently stroked the jade pendant and asked, "Is the Lu family still in Donghuayuan?"

"I think so? Your mother said it's a beautiful place with beautiful mountains and rivers." He Chunhua was puzzled, "Why?"

"Nothing." He Lingchuan put away the jade pendant, "By the way, my original name is He Xiao, who gave me this name?"
