"...What's the use of keeping you!" Su Bai put his hand on his forehead, "You're quite proud... It's embarrassing to throw away such an important thing."

"It wasn't lost, it was stolen." Ying Zhao retorted immediately.

"... Isn't that even more embarrassing?" Su Bai's eyes were filled with the words 'silly white sweet'.

"If you want to guard against thieves, you can't recover." Yingying showed a tired expression: "I also made mistakes because of a moment of sympathy."

"Oh? Tell me about it." Su Bai thought there was a story to listen to, and immediately said with interest: "Tell me about your unhappy things, and make me happy."

"It's a very simple past." Yingying said softly: "In the past, there was a family whose father sought medical treatment for a terminally ill child, and then met me... That father stole my precious mirror and asked for help. I healed his child, but without the precious mirror, I couldn’t completely cure the child’s disease, and I must return the precious mirror to cure him.”

She lowered her eyes and sighed faintly: "It's a pity that the other party didn't believe me, thinking that I would leave if I returned the mirror. He wanted this child to continue the family tradition, saying... as long as he can get married and have children, he will return the mirror." give me."

"And then?" Su Bai asked: "Could it be that this child is attracted to your beauty and wants to be indescribable with you, and then he is not allowed to marry, or..."

"No, he did get married, but he didn't return the mirror." Yingying hugged his knees: "Because... after the child got married and had a child, he found out that his child had the same disease, so he also began to doubt returning the mirror." After me, I will leave now, and will he and his children die because of it... This has been repeated for many generations, and every generation of Cen's males suffer from the same terminal illness, and decades have passed like this, four Five generations."

"Y-stained genetic disease..." Su Bai understood.

"It is indeed a genetic disease. Their fear of death has become more and more serious over time. They were willing to let me move freely, but then they used this instrument to lock me up instead." Reflecting the golden instrument with fingers snapping wrist : "...That's it. As for where the Cen family hid the bronze mirror, I really don't know."

Chapter 43 Qingluan Mirror

"Is it the Qingluan mirror?" Cen Ying thought for a while, and she pointed her finger up: "Indeed, I heard from my grandfather that there used to be a treasure mirror enshrined in the ancestral house, but later the house was burned down due to a fire, resulting in loss .”

"Is it lost?" Su Bai was thoughtful.

It was already the morning of the second day, and Su Bai asked Cen Ying to accompany him in the name of visiting Yanling, and she readily agreed. On the attic by the lake, Su Bai mentioned the treasure mirror. thing.

"Why do you suddenly ask such a question?" Cen Ying asked strangely.

"Because your house..." Su Bai thought for a while, "There is an old woman who can't ascend to the sky."

"...What?" Cen Ying's thinking paused for a few seconds, her face turned pale: "Yes yes yes, is it a female ghost?"

"Harmless." Su Bai deliberately smeared Yingzhao Tiannv, and he said half-truthfully, "Last night, I felt something was wrong, so I went for a walk in the closed courtyard. Only the mirror can leave, otherwise..."

"Then I have to ask Grandpa." Cen Ying hurriedly stood up.

"Don't worry, I said it's harmless." Su Bai thought for a while, "I'm afraid there are people in your family who know about her... If Mr. Cen doesn't know, I don't believe it. If you ask directly, you probably won't be able to find out. Yes, even if a fire burns things down, there should be some wreckage left behind, so the Qingluan mirror was either stolen or hidden."

There are only two possibilities.

And it is unlikely that it was taken away by a foreign thief.

If this is the case, then the difficulty of this task is not worthy of the reward.

The reward of an item card is not enough for Su Bai to find a needle in a haystack.

There is a high probability that this mirror is still in Yanling, or even in Cen's house.

Cen Ying nodded slightly, and she asked, "Then can I meet that...?"

"After you get the mirror, you can return the mirror to her yourself." Su Bai said, "Until you find the mirror, you can't give her a job."

"Well... I can secretly go and talk to the elders." Cen Ying nodded intelligently, showing that she knew the importance.

Whether this counts as taking advantage of Cen Ying's kindness and trust, and whether Ying Zhao will ask Cen's family to heal the disease after getting back the mirror, whether it is considered to do bad things with good intentions, Su Bai did not consider these.

He used to think about it, but not now.

He was originally standing in a position where the two were not helping each other. Since he chose to release Yingying Tiannv, there was no need to consider the feelings of the Cen family. The Cen family's actions were originally very unkind, and sympathizing with them is nothing more than a kind of empathy effect.

A lot of people think this way—as a human being, I would do the same.

Then thinking about it this way, even certain behaviors became reasonable and reasonable, and even the sense of guilt was reduced by more than one level.

So each generation of the Cen family did not fulfill the agreement, and just repeated the mistake.

The truth is such a truth, and Su Bai didn't even bother to tangle with it.

He is very clear that the result of this kind of thing is nothing more than two orientations. Even if he does not take action, in the long future, he will get rid of it sooner or later, or sooner or later a generation will wake up, admit his mistake, and return the mirror on his own initiative.

I just stepped back a little to let the result come sooner.

That's it.

Su Bai looked at the back of Cen Ying leaving, and turned to get up: "So...how long are you going to follow me?"

Yu Mudan looked at him quietly: "Don't worry about me, I just happened to be standing here."

"Did you not listen to a word I said before?" Su Bai asked with a headache.

"Of course not, I remember it very clearly." Yu Mudan's silver hair was tied into a simple style. If she was not dressed as a woman, she would have a bit of a chic temperament. Compared with yesterday, her eyes were much clearer, It seems to have figured out something.

"Since you remember it clearly, then...why should you go..." Su Bai leaned on the railing, folded his hands on his chest, "Let's face it, it's not difficult to find a place to shelter, your hair is already Yinbai, your temperament should also change a lot, no one will recognize you, you can change your title to White-haired Witch, and continue to roam the rivers and lakes."

"I have the prestige of Jianghu." Yu Mudan gently shook her head: "I don't care...and I like the scenery of Yanling very much."

"You don't intend to work in Cen's family to buy a house, do you?" Su Bai squinted: "The house price here is not cheap, and the loan is for decades."

"You are a very mysterious person, cold and warm, ignorant and knowledgeable, reliable and scary..." Yu Mudan said, "I don't see how many secrets you have."

"Curiosity can kill people." Su Bai replied.

"I don't intend to search for anything, but after these days, I can see that you care about Cen Ying very much, maybe you are a little teasing in your words, but you care about her safety." Yu Mudan observed very carefully.

Su Bai's heart turned cold, did the other party want to use Cen Ying as a threat...
