Chapter 40
Many years ago, Dongling finally returned to Liusheng Valley to take over as the patriarch after traveling the rivers and lakes for several years.

He fell in love with a woman from his family and had a daughter named Min Rou.

"Why didn't your mother take your surname?" Ji Qingxue asked curiously. The ancients were so pedantic, how could they let their children take another surname so easily.

Dong Ling laughed lightly: "That's because your grandma's surname is Hua. She is Wu Xian in the clan, and she has a high status. The clan rules stipulate that if Wu Xian gives birth to a daughter, the daughter must take the mother's surname and will succeed Wu Xian in the future." s position."

"Oh." Ji Qingxue immediately understood that the Wuling Clan still has so many rules.

"Your mother has been smart and smart since she was a child. She has learned all the skills of your grandma at a young age. She is the youngest Wu Xian in the clan." In advance of this, a proud look appeared on Dong Ling's face, His daughter is the best of the clan.

"Then why..." Ji Qingxue couldn't utter the word "severing ties".

Dong Ling's face changed slightly, with slight anger: "Originally everything was fine, but one day two young people from the Japanese clan broke into our originally peaceful life."

Nangong Xun and Ji Lin.

Dong Ling was trapped in deep memories: "When I saw these two young people for the first time, I knew that they were by no means as simple as they appeared on the surface, especially Nangong Xun. scheming."

"Senior, I'm afraid it's too much for you to criticize my father in front of this junior." Nan Gongyan said lightly, after all, it was his father.

"Too?" Dong Ling sneered for a while, "I'm afraid it's too much. I've read countless people in my life, and I never misjudged him. I'm afraid I know more about Nangong Xun than you, a son."

"What happened later?" Ji Qingxue asked anxiously, what happened in the end that brought things to this point?

"Later, Rou'er fell in love with the young man who broke into the valley. No matter how much your grandma and I persuaded her, she insisted on marrying him."

But Dong Ling understood that it was definitely not accidental that the two of them appeared in Liusheng Valley. Just based on the surname Nangong, he knew that they came here this time to use the power of the Wuling Clan to clear obstacles for them.

"So you fell out with your mother?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Dong Ling couldn't help but smiled wryly: "That's not the case. If he treats Rou'er sincerely, it doesn't matter what else, but he uses her to steal the Pteris vulgaris for him."

"After I found out and stopped her, Rou'er was still desperately protecting that Ji Lin, saying that she did it voluntarily. This silly girl, who grew up in the valley, didn't know that the people outside are evil. I asked her, between the tribe and him How would she choose between them, she resolutely chose to go with him."

Dong Ling's hands kept beating on the table: "Rou'er is stubborn, but she is innocent by nature. I was worried that she would be deceived and used by others. But I didn't expect that she had made up her mind to go, so she knelt on the ground with me. Kowtowed three times, and left with Ji Lin."

Hearing this story, Ji Qingxue sighed in her heart, mother, you abandoned your parents, your clan and your responsibilities for that Ji Lin, but you ended up in this end.

"And the most irritating thing is that when Nangongxun who came with Ji Lin left, he abducted the holy girl of my clan without making a sound!"

Nan Gongyan finally couldn't help it anymore: "What, my mother and concubine are also from the Wuling clan?"

Dong Ling said unhappily: "Now you know how worthless you are. I thought he was just planning to attack my town's treasure, but I never thought that he would kidnap the saint just like that. What a shame!

I regret that I didn't catch up back then, and I ended up with one palm! "

Hearing Dong Ling's words, Nan Gongyan was neither angry nor annoyed, but said flatly: "It's only natural for Nan men to love women, why do we have to stop it?"

"It's fine if I can find my true heart, but those two people clearly came here with a purpose. How can I trust my daughter and the saint of my family to such two people?"

"Did my mother never come back after that?"

Dong Ling nodded. He was also momentarily confused at the time, but he never thought that Hua Minrou would really never return to the Valley of Sound, nor did he think that she and the saint had long since died.

"How did your mother die, tell me in detail." In fact, Dong Ling had already made preparations. Although Ji Lin had repeatedly promised to take good care of Rou'er when he left, Dong Ling knew that the most untrustworthy thing in this world Yes, it is the illusory thing like an oath.

At that time, he had already seen the ambition in Ji Lin's eyes, and he would never be content with the status quo, so Dong Ling could only hope that one day Hua Minrou could figure it out by himself, and then return to Liusheng Valley, but unfortunately she never I can't come back either.

Only then did Ji Qingxue tell the whole story of what happened in the past.

She looked very calm when she was speaking, but Dong Ling was furious when she heard it, and Nan Gongyan's eyes flashed with distress. Although she knew that Ji Qingxue was not doing well in the prime minister's mansion, she never thought about it. It must be such an extremely dark day, no wonder she had to kill Ji Qingling that day, it turned out that there was still this bloody feud.

"Crack"——

Dong Ling crushed the cup on the side, threw it on the ground fiercely, and said through gritted teeth: "Ji Lin, I didn't expect you to cross the river and tear down the bridge so quickly. You like the new and dislike the old, and you dare to treat Rou'er like this. Qingxue, it's really hard for you gone."

Ji Qingxue said slowly: "It's all over, but I will not let anyone who hurt my mother go away,"

"Qingxue, leave this matter to Grandpa." Dong Ling held back his anger, since this Ji Lin dared to seek death, he would definitely fulfill him and kill Rou'er, he would never Let him go, he's just a prime minister of Yan, and he hasn't taken it seriously yet.

"Don't worry, I won't let them live too happily. Mother's death is so unjust, and it would be too easy for them to die. Wouldn't it be too cheap for them?" Ji Qingling said coldly, with murderous intent all over his body, which made Dong Ling feel a little distressed , this child has endured too much.

"Boy, it's your turn. Tell me about the disordered meridians in your body. Your body temperature is different from that of ordinary people. It seems that you have been poisoned. What's going on?"

Nan Gongyan frowned, and said calmly: "The meridians in my body are disordered, and my body temperature is different from ordinary people. It is indeed because I was poisoned, but this poison was brought out from the mother's womb."

It was brought out from the mother's womb, which meant that the saint had already been poisoned when she was pregnant with him, and the poison had already invaded the internal organs, so it affected the Nangongyan in her stomach.

Nan Gongyan said flatly: "I don't think I was hurt by my mother and concubine. My father once said that when my mother and concubine gave birth to me, her body was already at the end of her strength. She resolutely tried her best and gave me life. Concubine mother, I can only be grateful, how can I feel implicated?"

Dong Ling was very satisfied with Nan Gongyan's words. It seems that this kid is really different from his father, at least he is annoying, and his father can tell just by looking at his face. Mutually.

"It's very difficult to eradicate the poison in your body." Dong Ling said solemnly, the time has been too long, the poison has already penetrated into the internal organs, but he has been using internal force to suppress it forcibly, otherwise he would have died long ago.

Of course Nan Gongyan knew that it was not easy to cure his poison, but he had to try no matter what, he never believed in fate, he only believed in himself.

"Apart from ferns, what else do you need?"

"Soul Jade Fruit."

Dong Ling said very seriously: "Who prescribed this medicine for you?"

The person who could tell that Nan Gongyan was poisoned and prescribed these two medicines must have profound medical skills, at least he was on par with him, but he didn't know when there would be a doctor in every country Such a character.

Nan Gongyan raised his finger and pointed to Ji Qingxue beside him: "The person who prescribed this medicine for me is the one behind you."

Dong Ling suddenly looked at Ji Qingxue, his surprise was beyond words: "Qingxue, is it you?"

Ji Qingxue said indifferently: "Actually, I have only read some sporadic records of Soul Jade Fruit and Phoenix-tail Grass in classical medical books. Their medicinal properties are pure and strong, and they are perfect for restraining the cold poison in his body, but I'm not sure if I can find these two herbs, it's just a gamble."

Dong Ling stroked his gray beard and nodded again and again, he didn't expect Qingxue's medical skills to be so high, the more he looked at this granddaughter, the more he was satisfied.

"Then... can you give us the Phoenix tail grass?" Ji Qingxue hesitated, but she still said it. The Phoenix tail grass and Soul Jade Fruit are Nangongyan's only hope. She has already come here, and she doesn't want to let everything All previous efforts were wasted.

"This..." Dong Ling was in a bit of a dilemma. The first patriarch of the year had left an ancestral precept that he would never let Fengweicao leave the Valley of Voices, and ordered the younger generation to protect him, but now he is in a dilemma.

No matter, he has already lost his daughter, and he must not let his granddaughter suffer the same pain again.

"Qingxue, you should take a good rest today. I will take you into the mausoleum tomorrow. Whether you can get the ferns depends on your good luck. I am the patriarch of the Wuling clan. I have my own responsibilities that I need to stick to. I hope you can understand."

Ji Qingxue knew that this was already the biggest concession he could make, she immediately said gratefully: "Thank you senior."

Hearing Ji Qingxue still calling her senior, Dong Ling looked a little lonely. Seeing this, Ji Qingxue was also very uncomfortable, she was not used to it yet, a grandpa appeared suddenly, she had to give her some time.

Dong Ling forced a smile: "It's okay, take your time, old man, I have been waiting for so many years, and I don't care about this day or two. You can rest here today, be safe."

Looking at Dong Ling's leaving back, she seemed a little frail and frustrated, and she also felt uncomfortable for no reason.

Behind him, Nan Gongyan gently put his arm on her shoulder and pulled her into his arms, Ji Qingxue fell into his chest.

"What are you doing?" Ji Qingxue whispered, she always hated people touching her, but this time she didn't resist.

Nan Gongyan put his arms around her waist and said in a low voice, "I don't do anything, I just think you need this right now."

Ji Qingxue insisted, "Nonsense."

Nan Gongyan followed her words and continued: "Well, just treat it as me talking nonsense."

Ji Qingxue leaned back slightly, closed her eyes slightly, um, is this the feeling of being relied on?

It's really...too warm.
