Chapter 12 Chapter 11 Yuanshizhai, Flesh and Flesh Meet Again

The sound of the water was getting louder, Pan Jun struggled to open his eyes, but saw a woman in front of him was rubbing a towel in the washbasin with her back to him, and a towel was also placed on his forehead.The woman didn't seem to notice that Pan Jun had woken up, but the child who was following the woman turned her head vigilantly, and when she saw Pan Jun opened his eyes, a surprised smile appeared on his face and said, "Sister Duan, brother Pan is awake! " Duan Er'e hurriedly turned her head and saw that Pan Jun woke up with a smile on her face: "Brother Pan Jun, you finally woke up!" After she finished speaking, she walked to Pan Jun's bed and said, Pan Jun only felt his body was sore and his limbs were weak. Supporting his body with his hands, Jinlong reluctantly sat up from the bed. Jinlong rushed to Pan Jun to support him. Pan Jun leaned on the pillow and gently patted Jinlong's head.

"Miss Duan, Yan Yun..." Pan Jun only found out that Duan Er'e shook her head helplessly with a disappointed face and said, "You fainted last night. People went to look for Yanyun, and they haven't come back yet!" Hearing this, Pan Jun propped himself up and was about to get out of bed. Duan Er'e hurriedly stopped him: "Brother Pan, your health hasn't fully recovered yet, so rest and rest. Master Feng and Mr. Xue will come back and let us know as soon as they have news!" Feeling weak, Pan Jun nodded slightly, thinking that he was not familiar with Lanzhou City, and if he went out alone, if he got lost, it would only add trouble to everyone.Duan Er'e brought over a cup of hot tea and handed it to Pan Jun. Pan Jun took a sip of the cup of tea and immediately felt refreshed. things.After drinking a cup of tea, Pan Jun immediately felt much better.He put the tea cup on the table beside him, at this moment, there was a rush of footsteps outside.

Duan Er'e and Pan Jun both raised their heads and looked out, only to see Feng Wanchun, sweating profusely, coming in aggressively from the outside, followed by Liu Jin and a few staff, Feng Wanchun entered the room and saw that Pan Jun had already After waking up, most of the anger on his face disappeared immediately and he said: "Pan Jun, you finally woke up!" Feng Wanchun said, picking up the teapot on the side, and pouring the remaining half pot of tea into the spout. drink up. "Young master, you're awake!" Although Liu Jin was dry-mouthed, he was not as careless as Feng Wanchun.

"Well, Uncle Liu Jin, is there any news about Yan Yun?" Pan Jun was eager to know about Yan Yun. Just as Liu Jin was about to speak, Feng Wanchun put down the teapot and rushed to the front and said, "Don't mention it. Dozens of people have searched the streets and alleys of Lanzhou City since last night, but there is no trace of Yan Yun!" Pan Jun glanced at Liu Jin after Feng Wanchun finished speaking, and nodded when he saw Liu Jin, and said, "The guys who went with us are all from Lanzhou City, so there should be nothing missing, unless Miss Ouyang left the city last night. or else..."

"Impossible!" The voice came from outside the door, and several people followed the prestige and saw Xue Gui walking in slowly from the outside. He came in and cupped his hands to Pan Jun and said, "Just now shopkeeper Liu said that it is absolutely impossible for Miss Ouyang to go out of the city." Possibly, I asked the police station last night, and the city gate was closed at around 7 o'clock! And people from the police station were guarding the city gate this morning, and I have never seen a girl who looks similar to the one described by Master Feng. girl!"

"Mr. Xue, thank you for your hard work! Please sit down!" Pan Jun stood up and motioned for Xue Gui to sit down. "So Miss Ouyang is still in Lanzhou City?" Liu Jin frowned and pondered, "If you haven't left the city and there are no traces on this street, then could it be that Miss Ouyang is staying in an inn or Miss Ouyang is in Lanzhou? Are there any relatives or friends in the city?" Liu Jin's words reminded Pan Jun that he was frowning and thinking about something. "I have already sent someone to look for the inn, but I haven't found anyone similar to Miss Ouyang!" Xue Ping took the tea in Duan Er'e's hand and said, Liu Jin thought to himself, Xue Gui's reputation as the richest businessman in Lanzhou City really deserves his reputation. Thoughtful and impeccable, he turned his head and looked at Pan Jun, seeing that Pan Jun remained silent as if he was thinking about something.

"This is strange!" Feng Wanchun lit a cigarette and leaned on the table, and said after shaking the match in the air twice, "Duan girl, did Yan Yun chase that dead Mongolian insect out? " Duan Er'e nodded. "Since this is the case, how could it suddenly disappear without a trace?" Feng Wanchun was puzzled, glanced at Pan Jun and said, "Pan Jun, what are you thinking?" Pan Jun was taken aback, looked up and saw several people looking at him, and then said quietly: "What Liu Jin said just now reminded me, I was wondering if Yanyun has anyone he knows well in Lanzhou City!"

"This..." Several people frowned when they heard what Pan Jun said. "Even if this girl Yan Yun really has relatives in Lanzhou City, we don't know!" Feng Wanchun thumped the table lightly and said. "Actually, there is another person who may know!" Pan Jun said thoughtfully. "Who?" Feng Wanchun and Liu Jin asked in unison. "Yanying!" Pan Jun's words immediately disappointed the two of them. Since Yanying robbed Duan Er'e and Jinlong last time and released them back, there has been no news about Yanying. Even though he knows Yanying's whereabouts now, he is helping the Japanese now. It must have been difficult to find him.

"Forget it!" Pan Jun sighed helplessly, stood up and cupped his hands, "Mr. Xue, Lanzhou City also asks for your help. If you find Yan Yun's whereabouts, please contact us!" Xue Gui stood up and returned the salute: "Naturally, Master Pan's matter is my Xue Gui's matter. As long as the girl is still in Lanzhou City, I will guarantee that she will be safe! Then I will make arrangements now!" Xue Gui said goodbye, After Pan Jun watched Xue Gui leave, Liu Jin walked up and said, "Young Master, what shall we do next?" "Everyone hasn't rested since last night. Let's have some food and rest, and wait for news from Mr. Xue." After Pan Jun finished speaking, Liu Jin arranged for everyone to rest according to Pan Jun's instructions.

At this time, only Pan Jun, Feng Wanchun, Duan Er'e and Jin Long were left in the room.Feng Wanchun has been holding back his anger, complaining that Yan Yun is too reckless, and now everyone is worried about her.Duan Er'e looked at Feng Wanchun who was restless, then at Pan Jun and said with a smile: "Master Feng, you promised me to teach me how to cook some Northeast dishes when you were in Anyang! Now that everyone is hungry, you can teach me how to cook." Serve the food to everyone!" Feng Wanchun glanced at Duan Er'e, scratched his head and said, "Forget it, I can't sleep now anyway!" After speaking, he took Duan Er'e with his hands behind his back and walked to the kitchen in the second courtyard.

But Pan Jun turned his head and saw that Jinlong was always sitting on the chair looking at the sky outside, he walked slowly to Jinlong and said, "What are you looking at?" Jin Long pointed to a cloud floating in the sky and said, "Brother Pan Jun, do you think that cloud looks like Bawu?" Bawu was the Tibetan mastiff who grew up with Jinlong. Unfortunately, he died under the claws of a Japanese leather monkey in Anyang to save Jinlong. "Miss Bawu?" Ever since Pan Jun knew that this child was his sister Pan Yuanyuan's biological son, he felt more affection for him in his heart. "Yeah!" Jin Long leaned on his small chin and said, "Brother Pan Jun, do you think people will become ghosts after they die?" "Ah?" Pan Jun didn't know what Jinlong was thinking. "When grandpa was alive, he said that if one day he died, Bawu would accompany me. If Bawu died too, they would all become ghosts and accompany me!" Jinlong raised his head when he said this, his eyes filled with Looking longingly at Pan Jun, Pan Jun was an omniscient person in his young heart, and he believed what Pan Jun said. "Well, yes!" Pan Jun touched Jinlong's head, "Your grandfather and Bawu will always be by your side." After listening to Pan Jun's words, Jin Long smiled with satisfaction, continued to look at the cloud in the sky and said to himself: "I knew that cloud must be Bawu. Bawu is not a dog. Brother Yanying gave it to me." No dog can replace it!" "Yan Ying?" Pan Jun was surprised, "He said he wanted to give you a dog?" "En!" Jin Long nodded, "Brother Yanying promised to give me a Tibetan mastiff better than Bau, but there is only one Bau, and he will always be with me!" Pan Jun didn't hear Jin Long's words at all, and he was lost in thought. After a while, Pan Jun bowed down and said to Jin Long: "Jin Long, can you tell me about seeing Brother Yanying in the woods? " Jin Long turned his gaze back to Pan Jun. Lanzhou City was first built in 86 BC. Because gold was dug out during the construction of the city, it was called "Golden City".After that, Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty abolished the prefecture and set up the prefecture, and established the Lanzhou General Manager's Mansion here. The name "Lanzhou" first appeared in the history books.Although the prefecture and county changed their names several times later, the organizational history of Lanzhou was basically fixed and has been passed down to this day.Lanzhou City under the night casts off its typical majesty in the northwest city during the day, revealing a touch of charm and beauty.Pan Jun stood in the third courtyard of the Cordyceps Hall and paced leisurely. He was already deep at the moment. In the evening, Xue Gui sent someone to tell Pan Jun that there was still no whereabouts of Yan Yun, so Feng Wanchun talked with Liu Jin again uneasy. He went to the street to ask about Yan Yun's whereabouts, and Pan Jun had been waiting quietly in the yard since they left. If he guessed right, there should be news tonight. At this moment, a clerk suddenly ran in from the outside, and the clerk ran to Pan Jun and said, "Shaodong...Master, here is a letter for you!" The corner of Pan Jun's mouth slightly curled up, took the letter and said, "Where's the sender?" "It's a beggar. He left the letter at the door and said he would give it to Lord Pan, and then ran away!" the man said briefly. "Okay! You go down!" Pan Jun waved his hand, then walked into the room and opened the letter. There was only one line on the letter: Guanyuan Main Street, Yuanshizhai. "Yuanshi Zhai" has three gold-plated characters hanging on the door, a red door stands in front of Yan Yun, she followed the vibration of the Mongolian death insect to catch up here and stood at the door but hesitated, this "Yuanshi Zhai" It is the secret house of grandfather Ouyang Leihuo in Lanzhou City many years ago. Even the fire-type Ouyang family knows only a few people. They used to rest here in Lanzhou City when they traveled from Xinjiang to Beiping, but it has been abandoned for many years. , is no longer inhabited. But this Mongolian death worm is indeed coming here. Yan Yun stood at the door, wondering whether to go in. At this moment, firecrackers blared from the east. She looked in that direction as if it was the door of Xue's house. Did Brother Pan already Healed Miss Xue's family?She was thinking like this, and suddenly the courtyard door opened slowly after a "squeak". A gust of cold wind blew out from the door, Yan Yun paused, thinking to himself whether it was a blessing or a curse, because the disaster could not be avoided.Thinking of this, he took a step towards the yard. This Yuanshizhai is just a courtyard with two entrances. It is located in the most intricate Guanyuan Main Street in Lanzhou City. For those who are not familiar with it, entering this folk alley area is like entering a maze.And these two entrance courtyards are just located in the center of Guanyuan Main Street, and the first thing that catches the eye when entering from the main entrance is a screen wall. Yan Yun bypassed the shadow wall, and walked cautiously along the brick and stone path to the house in the courtyard. Just as he was about to enter the room, he suddenly found that the originally dark room was lit with candlelight.She immediately froze in place, the candles in the house reflected the shadows of three people on the window, an old man sitting in front of the table, a girl sitting in front of the table leaning on her chin, and the shadow of a boy on the opposite side of the old man's table . The shadow on the window suddenly made Yan Yun feel like a dream. This is what happened that night when they stopped here when they traveled from Xinjiang to Beiping.Thinking of this, Yan Yun took out the dagger from his waist, walked to the door in three steps at a time, kicked the door open, and then took the dagger to look around the room. The room was empty, and the shadows I saw on the window just now turned out to be three lifelike white paper figures in the room. Yan Yun put away the dagger in his hand, walked to the table, and saw a note on the table: You are here! In an instant, Yan Yun felt that his eyes were dark, and the room was completely dark, and the ground under his feet suddenly cracked, and the whole person slid in along the hole under his feet. Falling to the ground, she felt as if her body was falling apart and opened her eyes in a daze. This is an underground secret room, and there is a cage covered with black cloth not far away, and a candle is lit on the table in front of the cage. Wax, sitting opposite the candle was a man, Yan Yun recognized the man at a glance. "You..." Yan Yun stretched out his hand and pointed weakly at the man in front of him. He felt his eyelids getting heavier and heavier, and fell to the ground after shaking twice. Yan Yun felt that her eyes were bright and glaring, she slowly opened her eyes and saw a person lying on the head of her bed, and that person was Pan Jun. "Brother Pan!" Yan Yun whispered. Pan Jun vigilantly got up from the bed and saw Yan Yun awake and said in surprise: "Yan Yun, you finally woke up!" "Brother Pan, where am I?" Yan Yun propped himself up on the pillow behind and looked at the room in front of him. "Cordyceps Hall!" Pan Jun was about to stand up and pour water for Yan Yun, but Yan Yun's eyes lit up as if thinking of something, and strength immediately came to his body, and he struggled and walked down the bed, his legs just As soon as he landed on the ground, his knees felt sore and weak, and he fell forward. Pan Jun supported Yan Yun with quick hands and said, "Yan Yun, what's wrong with you?" Yan Yun bit her lips with tears in her eyes but still refused to speak, Pan Jun hugged Yan Yun and whispered in her ear: "Are you going back to Yuanshizhai?" After hearing Pan Jun's words, Yan Yun suddenly stopped struggling, and looked at Pan Jun with almost pleading eyes.I saw Pan Jun frowned and said: "When I first arrived at Guanyuan Main Street last night, I heard a loud noise from the deep alley, and then the fire inside shot up into the sky and thick smoke billowed, so I walked towards the direction of the fire. Run, who knows that the place where the fire and explosion started is Yuanshizhai, and I found you unconscious at the entrance of the alley!" "Then... where is Yuanshizhai?" Yan Yun said while holding Pan Jun's shoulder tightly. "Destroyed, there is nothing left!" Feng Wanchun who was talking was walking in from the outside. At this moment, he was covered in dust, as if he had just crawled out of the ashes. Not much better than him. "What? Master Feng, you said Yuanshizhai is gone?" Yan Yun couldn't believe his ears. "Well, Liu Jin and I have been staying there since last night. Yuanshizhai was bombed to pieces and a fire was set ablaze. There was nothing left!" Duan Er'e had already served him and Liu Jin while Feng Wanchun was speaking. water. "It's really gone! It's really gone!" Yan Yun sat down on the bed in despair, staring blankly out of the window, tears slowly slipped from the corners of Yan Yun's eyes and landed on the back of her hand. For almost the whole day, Yan Yun sat in front of the table without saying a word, staring at the window in a daze. No one knew what happened the day and night of Yan Yun's disappearance.When Pan Jun found her, he found that her body was covered with cuts and bruises. The wounds looked like she had been bitten by some kind of animal, as if she had been locked in a cage containing wild animals.But this is why Pan Jun still can't figure it out. If someone from the other branch of the fire department wants to kill Yan Yun for revenge, lock her in a cage with wild beasts and torture her to death, it's understandable.But what was unexpected was why Yan Yun was released after the house was destroyed. Could it be that someone rescued her? Pan Jun sat on the bed behind Yan Yun, fiddling with the family heirloom that Xue Gui gave him while thinking.All these things are like a tangled mess, no matter how clever he is, he can't figure it out.I'm afraid all of this can only be answered from Yan Yun's mouth after she has stabilized her mood! It was night, the moon was dim, and the breeze was blowing. In the evening, Feng Wanchun couldn't resist Jinlong taking him and Duan Er'e to visit Lanzhou City.But Pan Jun stayed with Yan Yun in the room all the time, and Yan Yun stared out the window all day long. "Brother Pan!" Yan Yun suddenly whispered after an unknown amount of time, and Pan Jun quickly raised his head, seeing Yan Yun turning his head and looking at him. "Yan Yun, do you feel better?" Pan Jun said softly. "Well, I'm a little hungry!" Yan Yun's words surprised Pan Jun, and he quickly ordered Liu Jin to cook some dishes and serve them up.Then he helped Yan Yun to the dining table and sat down. "Liu Jin, do you have any wine?" Yan Yun asked. "Wine?" Liu Jin glanced at Pan Jun suspiciously, saw Pan Jun nodded and said with a smile, "Yes, wait!" After a while, Liu Jin brought a jar of high-quality Langjiu in his hand and put it on the table, "Miss Ouyang, how about this wine?" Yan Yun slightly curled up the corners of his mouth and smiled: "Thank you, Uncle Liu Jin!" "Okay, then you guys eat first, I'll go to the front and do some business!" After finishing speaking, Liu Jin retreated wisely.I saw Yan Yun open the jar of wine, clasped his arms around his neck and drank it "gudong gudong", Pan Jun stood up quickly, and took the jar from Yan Yun's hand. It kept twitching. Pan Jun put the wine jar on the table and said, "Yan Yun, what's wrong with you? What happened the day you disappeared?" Unexpectedly, Yan Yun hugged Pan Jun, paralyzed in Pan Jun's arms, trembling constantly and said, "Brother Pan, why is this happening? Why is this happening?" Pan Jun's ears turned red, he raised his hand and paused for a moment, then gently stroked Yan Yun's shoulder and said, "Yan Yun, I know something must have happened, can you tell me?" "Brother Pan, we really shouldn't come to Peiping. If that happens, I'm afraid nothing will happen. Grandpa won't die, and Yanying won't leave me." Pan Jun knew that Yanyun and his younger brother Yanying had been with him since he was a child. Ouyang Leihuo depended on each other for life, but in just over a month, Ouyang Leihuo suffered misfortune, and his own brother Yanying also parted ways with him. For a girl in her twenties, she had to bear too much . Yan Yun cried for a while and finally calmed down. He got up from Pan Jun's arms and said, "Brother Pan, do you still remember Qiao Rong?" Qiao Rong, Pan Jun's heart trembled suddenly when he heard Yan Yun mentioning this name, Pan Jun nodded slightly: "It's the person who walked the ditches that you rescued in that town!" Unexpectedly, Yan Yun smiled wryly, shook his head and said, "Brother Pan, Qiao Rong is not just walking around!" When the huge explosion of Yuanshizhai resounded in Lanzhou City, many spectators gathered near Yuanshizhai.At this time, Yuanshizhai's courtyard with two entrances and two exits had already been engulfed in a sea of ​​flames.All kinds of onlookers whispered to each other, asking each other about the owner of this Yuanshizhai, waiting for someone to suddenly rush out of the raging fire, but the final result disappointed them. The fire was on for several hours, but no one came out of it . And no one noticed that a young man carried a woman away from the alley, and no one noticed that there was an old man in his sixties and seventies among the dense crowd, and the old man was hiding in the crowd and gritted his teeth. , the veins popped out and rattled in the hand that was clenched into a fist, and looked at the burned Yuanshizhai with regret. After a while, the old man turned around and left the crowd, walking into the depths of the night.In an unremarkable small courtyard in the north of Lanzhou City, a woman sat quietly in front of the candlelight, holding a bamboo stick in her hand and gently fiddled with the candlelight, with shallow bruises on the corners of her mouth. Suddenly the locked door was opened, and the woman sat on the chair calmly.The old man stood at the door and looked behind him, seeing no one around, then locked the door behind him. "What? Yuanshizhai is gone?" The woman's indifferent tone was tinged with mockery. The old man clenched his fist as if he was irritated and was about to attack, but he finally let go of his fist: "Jin Sumei, no matter what you say, I won't shoot again!" "Haha!" The woman stood up with a hearty smile and said, "I didn't expect that you have learned to endure in the past ten years!" She frowned and made an apologetic expression: "No, it should be said that you have already You have been holding back for many years, right?" "You..." The old man was obviously speechless by Jin Sumei's eloquence. After a while, the old man said angrily: "You are a disaster, if it weren't for you, my Ouyang family would not be in this situation today!" "Haha!" Jin Sumei laughed jokingly: "Really? That should be the evil fruit you planted yourself!" "I really hate myself for not killing you with a single knife. Maybe Yanlei won't..." Ouyang Leihuo clenched his fists and smashed it on the table, wishing to tear Jin Sumei up immediately. into pieces. "Perhaps only Yanlei is the most pitiful!" Jin Sumei's heart trembled slightly at the mention of this name. She looked at the flickering candle in front of her. A man with dark skin, a pair of brown eyes, and a well-defined face. Jin Sumei was deeply fascinated by him the first time he saw him. The man in front of him was wearing a red groom's suit. He was her husband Ouyang Yanlei.The next gentleman of the fire-type insect repellent master in Xinjiang, he smiled and took Jin Sumei's slender hands. Jin Sumei was a little shy, and the rouge on her face showed a different kind of blush.Jin Sumei has lived in Beiping since she was a child. For the man in front of her, she is willing to go to Xinjiang. The wind and sand along the way did not make this infatuated woman shrink back. In the Jin family in Beiping, Jin Sumei usually sees short and ugly dwarves like Jinshun and Jinyin the most, but the appearance of Ouyang Yanlei makes her eyes shine.When she knew that she was going to marry this man, she was so excited that she couldn't sleep for several days. Just as she expected, the two lived happily ever after they got married in Ouyang Mansion in Huoyanshan, Xinjiang. On weekdays, when Ouyang Yanlei went to train the monkeys, Jin Sumei would prepare a sumptuous dinner for him at home.Occasionally, Ouyang Yanlei would take Jin Sumei to train the monkeys. Whenever she saw those monsters with fierce looks, Jin Sumei was always worried that her husband would be injured by those monsters if he made a mistake. Fortunately, her worries were overblown. Although Ouyang Yanlei was born in Ouyang's family and inherited his father Ouyang Leihuo's family tradition, he did not continue his violent temper like a "fire son". Ouyang Leihuo was even better. They welcomed their first child, Ouyang Yanyun, in such a peaceful life.The birth of Yan Yun undoubtedly brought unprecedented joy to this family. Ouyang Yanlei lived in a honeypot every day, and his mouth was always too happy to close.He often said to Jin Sumei: "Sumei, you are the most precious treasure bestowed on me by God. Now that I have Yanyun, even if I die right now, I have no complaints!" Every time Jin Sumei heard this, she would lightly beat Ouyang Yanlei's shoulder and blame him for talking nonsense. But they didn't realize that hidden in this peaceful and happy life was a crisis that could break everything. This incident completely changed everything, and the originally happy family instantly became fragmented. The candle in front of her eyes suddenly flickered twice, pulling Jin Sumei back from that distant memory. Opposite the candle was just a dark wall. This memory that Jin Sumei has been avoiding every day for more than ten years is unexpectedly so. Her eyes were wet unconsciously. "Actually..." Ouyang Leihuo frowned, and slowly loosened his clenched fist, "Actually, Yanlei is not dead!" "What?" Jin Sumei looked at Ouyang Leihuo in amazement, those eyes that were originally frozen were a little bit more expectant at the moment, she was eager to get a definite answer from Ouyang Leihuo, only to see Ouyang Leihuo nodded slightly, "He really Still alive!" At this moment, there was a "crash" sound from outside the window, Ouyang Leihuo pulled out the dagger from his waist vigilantly, and then pushed open the door. As soon as he went out, he saw a black cat jumping from the window to the courtyard next to him with a "meow". Only then did Ouyang Leihuo feel relieved, put away the knife in his hand, took two steps back, closed the door and returned to the house. "Is it true that you just said that Yan Lei is still alive?" Jin Sumei's heart was in a mess at the moment. She thought that her heart had already been weathered after so many years, at least she would no longer feel this way. "What?" Pan Jun grabbed Yan Yun's shoulder in surprise and said, "Yan Yun, you said that Qiao Rong is your father?" Yan Yun nodded slightly: "Yes, if I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I wouldn't believe that Qiao Rong is my father!" "Yan Yun, go ahead!" Pan Jun said seriously. Yan Yun nodded, looking into Pan Jun's eyes, Pan Jun's dark eyes reflected a candle flame, that candle flame was placed on the table not far away, Yan Yun felt that every joint in his body was extremely sore , She looked around in a daze, and found that the surroundings were dark, and in a trance, she seemed to have remembered something and got up from the bed vigilantly. "You're awake!" A voice came from the dark place behind Yan Yun, Yan Yun's body trembled suddenly, such a familiar yet unfamiliar voice made Yan Yun turn his head aside. I saw a man coming out of the darkness beside him, that man turned out to be Qiao Rong, but Yan Yun clearly remembered that Qiao Rong's voice seemed to be much rougher than it is now.She looked Qiao Rong up and down, only to see Qiao Rong smiled slightly, walked up to Yan Yun with a bowl, handed the bowl to Yan Yun and said, "Yan Yun, you finally woke up!" Yan Yun vigilantly pushed the bowl away from Qiao Rong's hand, stared at Qiao Rong with a burning gaze and said, "Who are you?" Qiao Rong smiled slightly, turned around, walked to the front of the table, put the bowl on the table, crossed his legs and said: "Anthelmintics pay attention to the integration of body, mind, and breath. One is indispensable. Insects move, people move; insects move." , people are quiet, so that humans and insects can become one." Qiao Rong's words were exactly what Yan Yun's father said to her when she was young, no matter the voice or the demeanor were the same as her father's, but the appearance of the person in front of her was completely different from her father's.Qiao Rong seemed to see Yan Yun's doubts, smiled slightly, touched his face lightly, and after taking off the human skin mask, a familiar and slightly vicissitudes of face appeared In front of Yan Yun. Yan Yun looked at the person in front of him, tears kept rolling in his eyes.Yan Yun originally thought that he would never see his father again in this life, but he did not expect him to appear here. "Father..." Yan Yun struggled to stand up from the bed and knelt down in front of Ouyang Yanlei's knees and said, "For so many years, my brother and I thought you had..." "You all thought I was dead, didn't you?" Ouyang Yanlei gently stroked Yan Yun's hair and said, "Son, it's been hard for you for so many years." Yan Yun hugged Ouyang Yanlei tightly to stop crying, gently wiped away tears and said, "Father, grandpa is in Beijing..." Just now, Ouyang Yanlei waved his hands lightly and said, "I know all of this, and I've also heard about your brother!" Mentioning the indescribable apology in Yanying and Yanyun's heart, she lowered her head in silence for a while and said, "Father, where have you been all these years?" Ouyang Yanlei stood up with a smile and said, "Son, come with me, I'll let you see something!" "Ah?" Yan Yun looked at Ouyang Yanlei suspiciously, and he took Yan Yun to the big black cloth-covered cage in front of him and said, "Yan Yun, do you know what's inside?" Yan Yunliu frowned slightly and looked at it for a moment, then shook his head lightly. Ouyang Yanlei smiled and gently pulled the rope on the side of the cage. In an instant, the black cloth fell off the cage, and then a huge Mongolian animal died. The worm unexpectedly appeared in front of Yan Yun. The giant worm in front of him was much bigger than what he had seen before. When it saw the light, it let out a muffled growl, and then rushed forward. Fortunately, it was caught The cage is in the way. Yan Yun took two steps back in panic, and looked at Ouyang Yanlei worriedly.Suddenly Yan Yun heard a slight whistling sound in his ears, and that sound came from Ouyang Yanlei.The giant worm's big head shook slightly, and it wriggled and retreated, until it reached the back of the cage.Only then did Ouyang Yanlei gently open the cage, and walked in on his own. He walked up to the giant worm, stretched out his hand and stroked the giant worm's head for a while, and the giant worm became very docile from its violent aura before, all of which made Yan Yun's heart skip a beat.A while later, Ouyang Yanlei came out of the cage, covered the cage with the black cloth again, and turned to see Yan Yun staring at him suspiciously. "Father, are you the one who drives the Mongolian death bug?" Yan Yun couldn't believe what he saw. Ouyang Yanlei nodded affirmatively: "I used it to lead you to our old house of Ouyang's family!" At this time, Yan Yun was like Zhang Er's monk who couldn't figure it out. Until now, she still clearly remembered the desperate battle between the other branch of the fire element and the Ouyang family, but why did her father become the driver of that branch? Insect Master? Ouyang Yanlei seemed to have seen through what Yan Yun was thinking, called her aside and said, "Shortly after your mother left home, Ouyang's family was attacked by another insect repellent from the fire department. I think you should have That's what I remember!" "Yeah!" Yan Yun nodded and said, "At that time, my grandfather asked me to take my younger brother to hide in the secret room, even so, I could still hear the roar of killing outside, and the sound of fighting and screaming lasted for a whole night before it stopped. By the next morning there were corpses all over the yard, and rivers of blood!" "That's right!" Ouyang Yanlei said with a long breath, "The situation was very chaotic at that time, I don't know where your grandfather got the news that those exterminators would attack Ouyang's old house, so we made preparations in advance. But we still underestimated their strength too much. The ferocious Pihou turned out to be so vulnerable at that time. I led a few disciples and rushed to the front. All the disciples who went with me were wiped out. In the end, I took three leather monkeys and chased a wounded Mongolian dead bug to the depths of the desert. Only then did I know that I had been tricked!" "As soon as I arrived in the depths of the desert, I was surrounded by several Mongolian dead insects that had been waiting there. Three monkeys died in front of me in an instant. I knew there was only one way to die, and since your mother left, I have always had Begging for death. Thinking about it, he rushed forward with a long knife in his hand, but before he got close, he was stunned by the electricity released by the Mongolian death insect." Ouyang Yanlei said faintly while recalling. "Then what happened next?" Yan Yun stared at his father with watery eyes. "Later, when I woke up, I saw an old man. He had been wearing a black veil and a black hat. When I woke up, he smiled at me, and he quickly revealed his identity. He is another insect repellent from the fire department named Qiao Rong. I thought he would kill me, but he sneered a few times and told me that his purpose was not to kill me, but to let me inherit Mongolia The exorcism of the death bug!" "At that time, I was very hesitant, because I had heard long ago that the insect repellent technique of another branch of the fire element was very evil. Not only the fire element family, but also other insect repellent masters scoffed at it. But when I said hesitant After explaining the reason, Qiao Rong smiled faintly, and told me an amazing secret with a smile. It was also this secret that finally made me decide to inherit the insect repelling technique of Mongolian dead insects!" Ouyang Yanlei bit her lip fiercely when she said this Said. "Secret?" Yan Yun was surprised by his father's bizarre experience for so many years, "What secret?" "This secret is a conspiracy concocted by the insect repellent family for generations!" Ouyang Yanlei glanced at Yan Yun and said after a pause, "Pan Jun, a gentleman of the wood family who is with you, is the most critical link in this conspiracy !" "Ah?" When Yan Yun heard that Pan Jun was involved in the conspiracy, a lot of worries arose in his heart, "Father, what kind of conspiracy is it?" "Son, don't ask too many questions. This is no longer a matter of one person. I think if it's right, this matter may affect the survival of the people in the world." Ouyang Yanlei said, staring at the candle in front of him. "Then you should tell brother Pan quickly to make him prepare!" Yan Yun said anxiously. "Silly girl, I've seen that you like Pan Jun along the way." Ouyang Yanlei said with a smile, "Your vision is right, Pan Jun is indeed one of the ten thousand characters, and it is precisely because of this that I chose you I'm here to tell you that there are too many schemes in Pan Jun's body, if he makes a wrong move, he will be crushed to pieces!" "Since it's a conspiracy, I'll find a way to keep Brother Pan away from this conspiracy!" Yan Yun said impatiently. “呵呵，不可能的。如果一开始就发觉的话恐怕还可能抽身出来置身事外，可现在你的潘哥哥已经陷入太深，便是想要抽身出去也不可能了！”欧阳烟雷无奈地说道。 “那你答应了乔荣之后的这些年呢？”燕云好奇地追问道。 “嗯，那个秘密改变了我对火系旁支驱虫师的看法，然而随着我和乔荣的接触越来越深，我渐渐发现他与之前我们所听闻的火系旁支驱虫师完全不同，而这蒙古死虫也并不像传言的那般凶残，甚至较之皮猴更容易控制。”欧阳烟雷说到这里燕云不禁扭过头再次看了看那盖着黑布的笼子，即便父亲如此说燕云始终觉得那蒙古死虫更凶悍一些。 “这之后我渐渐发现了很多事情，那乔荣之所以一直戴着黑帽子，脸上遮着一块黑布是因为他的脸早已经被大火烧得面目全非。每每我问及此事的时候，乔荣只是微微摇头，他告诉我这些事情即便是他告诉我恐怕我也不会相信，只能让我自己去弄清楚。在和乔荣一起生活了两年之后他便过世了，在他弥留之际告诉我之所以攻击欧阳家并不是因为别的事情，而是他知道自己大限将至，只能另寻一个继承人。而我是他唯一的人选！”欧阳烟雷说到这里神色有些忧伤，沉默良久长出一口气说道。 “难道火系旁支便只剩下乔荣一个人了吗？”燕云接着问道。 “嗯，是啊。其实火系旁支一直生存在沙漠深处，他们深居简出，极少与外人来往。虽然人丁一直不甚兴旺，但尚有几十人，但七十年前却惨遭屠戮，最后只剩下乔荣一个人生还！” “乔荣过世之后，父亲你为什么没有回到欧阳老宅啊？”燕云不解地说道。 “丫头，其实我回去过，只是你不知道而已。这么多年我虽然身在大漠深处，但是我一直耿耿于怀的一件事就是你母亲的不辞而别！”欧阳烟雷想到金素梅心中忽然出现了一丝暖意，“在你母亲生下燕鹰不久便忽然变得沉默寡言，每次问及此事她总是遮遮掩掩。而燕鹰刚刚周岁那天她便留下一只明鬼失踪了！” “母亲离开之后去了日本，我不久前听燕鹰说了这件事！”燕云谈到母亲心中有些失落，她始终不明白为什么母亲会忽然和日本人联系在一起，那个让她记忆犹新温柔和蔼的母亲和燕鹰口中的金先生完全是两个人。 “嗯！”欧阳烟雷长出一口气说道，“这件事我也听说了，只是她现在已经不知了去向！” “啊？”燕云虽然心中对母亲的作为不认同，但是她始终是燕云的母亲，这一点始终无法改变。 “嗯，至今尚不知下落呢！”欧阳烟雷说道。 燕云琢磨了一会儿说道：“父亲，那么说这火系旁支驱虫师便只有你一个人了！那在雾隐镇的时候……” “哈哈，其实那完全是个巧合。我知道你们离开安阳便先行一步，谁知走到那雾隐镇的时候却发现前一天便有日本人埋伏在那里了！我混进那镇子暗中观察，竟然发现那些日本人全部是青年人，而且他们也会一些杂七杂八的驱虫术，我唯恐他们对你不利便将他们除掉了。后来我想想还是以乔荣的身份陪在你身边，这样一来方便保护你，第二就是还有另外一件是要做！”欧阳烟雷望着燕云说道，“第二件事你已经经历了！” “第二件事？”燕云琢磨着父亲的话，过了一会儿恍然大悟般地说道：“难不成是那火系的密语？” “嗯，火系求救的密语是我留下的！”欧阳烟雷淡淡地说道。 “为什么要留下那种求救的密语？”燕云不解地望着父亲。 “因为潘俊！”欧阳烟雷长叹了一口气，“这件事说来话长，以后你慢慢就知道了！” “嗯！”燕云点了点头。 “好了，燕云，闲话就说到这里今天，把你引到这里还有一件事！”欧阳烟雷说着站起身将燕云扶起来说道。 “什么事？”燕云望着父亲的眼睛问道。 “这件事你不能告诉任何人，包括潘俊！”欧阳烟雷说到这里带着燕云向着密室一侧走去。
