A caravan with the Song family's flag slowly drove into a dock.
The vehicle carrying the goods drove to other parts of the fort, but Lu Li and Song Yingxing came to luxurious houses one after another.
At the gate.
The two got off the carriage, and Song Yingxing said apologetically: "I still have to report the journey to my elders at home, so I have no choice but to let Brother Lu go with the servants to settle him down. I will come to apologize tomorrow."
Lu Li smiled and said, "It doesn't matter, Mr. Song, just go ahead. I've been traveling for days and I'm a little tired. I can just rest for a while."
"Then just wait."
Song Yingxing nodded, and then said to the servant who came to greet him at the door: "This Mr. Lu is my distinguished guest. You can lead him to the butler and let the butler settle him well."
"Yes, master."
The servant nodded respectfully, then came to Lu Li and said with the same respect: "Mr. Lu, please follow me."
"Then Lu will take the first step."
Lu Li cupped his hands towards Song Yingxing and left with his servant.
After watching Lu Li leave, Song Yingxing withdrew his gaze and turned around to head towards another part of his home.
Somewhere in the backyard.
This is a maple forest, with fiery red maple leaves falling in the wind and flying into a small lake nearby.
Song Yingxing walked along the gravel path, passed through the maple forest, and came to the lake. He saluted in the direction of the small lake and said, "Grandpa, my grandson wants to see you."
The lake is empty, except for the quiet lake water, there is not a single person in sight.
But at this time, he seemed to be responding to Song Yingxing's words.
I saw a large amount of fog gathering on the lake, and a vague figure loomed in the fog. Soon the fog dissipated, revealing a figure wearing green clothes.
This is a young-looking man, barely a few years older than Song Yingxing, in his early twenties, with a gentle appearance. Against the background of a green shirt, he looks like a gentle older brother.
But he was such a big brother. When Song Yingxing saw him, he knelt down and kowtowed: "I have met my grandfather."
This young man turned out to be the grandfather he called.
?In fact, this is not surprising.
As the monks¡¯ cultivation becomes more advanced, their life expectancy becomes longer and longer, and it is not too difficult for the monks to maintain a youthful appearance.
Like Lu Li himself.
He has five qi and can live for a thousand years. If he is willing, he can live for a thousand years with his current appearance.
Therefore, judging the age of a monk based on his appearance is the stupidest way.
But the other way around.
A monk's appearance also reveals the other person's mentality to a certain extent. Others can choose different strategies to interact with him based on this.
"Get up."
The ancestor of the Song family gently touched his hand, lifted Song Yingxing up, and then said softly: "Xing'er, you came to find me, but what happened?"
He has been cultivating quietly in the Maple Forest Lake and does not show up on weekdays. Unless there is something important in the clan, he usually will not come to bother him.
Now that Song Yingxing has arrived, something may have happened.
"There is indeed one thing that needs my grandfather to decide."
Song Yingxing nodded, and then told his grandfather about his encounter with Lu Li on the road, the information he gleaned from him, and his own guesses.
¡°My grandson¡¯s cultivation is shallow and I can¡¯t tell the details of that person. Besides, I don¡¯t know if the other person went to Xihai County for the sake of the sect, so I don¡¯t dare to hide it. I will tell my grandfather when I get back.¡±
After saying the last sentence, he stopped talking and waited for his grandfather's response.
After hearing what his grandson said, the ancestor of the Song family fell into silence.
For a long time.
He then asked: "You said this man named Lu Li was entrusted by a friend in Tianshui County to come to Xihai County to look for old friends from his hometown?"
Song Yingxing glanced at his grandfather with a complex expression, and then nodded: "Yes, Brother Lu also said at that time that his friend was in Changshu County, Tianshui County, at the foot of a maple mountain."
In fact, it was precisely because of the mention of Maple Mountain that he doubted whether it had any connection with Red Maple Valley.
"Changshu CountyFengshan"
The ancestor of the Song family recited these two place names, and then couldn't help but shed a tear.
"Senior Brother Wu, I didn't expect that Senior Brother is still there, still holding on to Fengshan, and now that he is in jail, he is still thinking about the sect."
Listening to his grandson's narration, he finally confirmed that the friend Lu Li mentioned should be the senior brother in his memory.
But it is precisely because of confirmation that I feel so sad and ashamed.
"Grandpa?"
Song Yingxing couldn't help but feel a little confused when she looked at her grandfather who suddenly burst into tears.
"Where is that Lu Li?"
The ancestor of the Song family did not respond to his grandson's confusion and asked directly.
"My grandson has placed him in the Dongyuan guest room."
Song Yingxing had just finished speaking, but he saw that his grandfather had disappeared.
Song Zhai, Dongyuan.
In a small courtyard with a bamboo forest and a pond, Lu Li sat on a stone bench by the pond, picked up a cup of tea on the table, blew it, and took a sip.
¡®Song Yingxing should go to see his grandfather now, but I don¡¯t know if his grandfather can recognize Wu Yang¡¯s identity based on the information I revealed. ¡¯
Wu Yang shoulders the responsibility of guarding the Corpse Demon King. This task is very important, and the news is naturally hidden.
So even among the disciples of Red Maple Valley, not everyone knows about this.
"But it doesn't matter even if you don't know clearly. As long as you confirm the identity of the other party's Red Maple Valley disciple, and if your character is good, you can inform the other party about Wu Yang's news.
As long as you fulfill your promise, everything else doesn't matter.
Just thinking about it.
Lu Li was startled for a moment, and then he saw a burst of mist rising from the pond in front of him, and then a green figure appeared.
"Are you Lu Li? Did my senior brother Wu ask you to come?"
The figure just appeared and he couldn't wait to ask.
" Then he seemed to realize that he was being rude. He calmed down, suppressed his impatience, and saluted Lu Li: "Song Yuqing from Red Maple Valley, I have met fellow Daoist Lu."
After hearing Song Yuqing's inquiry, Lu Li was basically sure that the other party was indeed a disciple of Red Maple Valley, and he seemed to know about Wu Yang.
Seeing the other party salute at this time, he also stood up and replied: "Donghai Lu Li, I have met fellow Taoist Song. Lu's visit this time was indeed entrusted by fellow Taoist Wu Yang to check the current situation of Red Maple Valley and deliver a message. "
Seeing that Lu Li said Wu Yang's name so easily, Song Yuqing also let go of his doubts, and then asked: "Fellow Daoist Song, what news did Senior Brother Wu ask you to deliver?"
Lu Li thought for a moment, and then said: "The Maple Mountain seal formation is broken, and there is no one guarding the formation. The Corpse Demon King is about to escape from the trap in a year. Fellow Daoist Wu asked me to find the people in Red Maple Valley and inform them about this."
When Song Yuqing heard this, even though he had been prepared, he still couldn't help but tremble slightly.
