All hearts do not die

Chapter 123

Master Tai, Master Tai said after performing the Buddhist ceremony: "The poor nun is called Yuan Xu, Master Yuan Hui is practicing with her hair, and she is dedicated to worshiping the Buddha and never sees guests. If the benefactor wants to untie the marriage lottery, the poor nun may explain a little bit."

Luo Fan respectfully handed over the bamboo stick: "I just heard from my little master that there is no such person as Mrs. Yuanhui in the nunnery."

Master Yuanxu's eyes turned slightly and he immediately turned serious: "It's only been a few days since I entered the nunnery, and I haven't confessed everything. The young master can get the lottery, and the marriage is fixed. If we can survive the catastrophe in front of us, we can spend the rest of our lives hand in hand with the one we are destined to love." , blessings are infinite."

Luo Fan smiled knowingly, and thought, no wonder people like to ask for fortune-telling, regardless of whether it is accurate or not, just listening to the commentary on the lottery makes me very happy!People in the Buddhist sect are indeed very sincere, unlike Meng Yueniang at Yuelao Peak, who looked at the palmistry and explained it in a vague way, so she was suspicious.Luo Fan clasped his hands together, thanked Mrs. Yuan Xu, and walked out happily holding Shu Yi's arm, seeing the little nun dumbfounded.

Baiji: "I saw that little nun spoke with confidence, as if she wasn't sure whether there was Master Yuanhui in the nunnery."

Shu Yi: "There's something strange about it, you'll find out when you go to Si Cheng's house to find out what's true."

When Si Chengque heard that Mr. Bingluo Wuyou came to visit, he was surprised at first, then his brows were brimming with joy, and when he heard that Mr. Bingshu was walking with him, he twitched the corner of his mouth and snorted.He straightened his clothes and combed his long hair, then Shi Shiran rushed to the living room to meet the guests.

People raised their hands to greet people before they came to him, and the accompanying attendants somehow felt that their young master was happier than welcoming the bride.Si Chengqueyan laughed at Yan Yan: "It's like three autumns since we don't see each other, Wuyou misses me too? I'm really flattered to meet you at the door in person!"

Shu Yi opened the folding fan with a "swipe". The weather at the end of October was already cool, but he was able to add some wind to the coolness, and the temperature suddenly dropped a lot.

Embarrassed, Luo Fan avoids Si Chengque's hand from Yaoyao, salutes slightly unnaturally, and replies: "Take the liberty to visit and don't disturb Brother Hongyan."

Si Chengque: "How could that be? I'm glad you can come and stay for a long time!"

"..." Luo Fan coughed dryly, "To be honest, I am here this time to visit brother Hong Yan, and to visit the head of Sicheng on important matters."

Si Chengque was a little surprised, and said bluntly: "My father has never seen any guests since he retreated. I'm afraid that Wuyou will return with no success this time."

Luo Fanxin insisted: "This move is indeed a bit abrupt. It's not intentional to make things difficult for others. It's really a matter of great importance. It would be great if we could have a few words with the head of Sicheng outside the door."

Si Chengque was a little embarrassed, he sighed almost imperceptibly, and said, "Wuyou, of course I can take you there, but my father's temperament has not been very good since he went to retreat, and even if I go, he always gets angry , then I'm afraid..."

Luo Fanxin: "Brother Hong Yan, you don't have to worry about this, I have my own measure."

Si Chengque smiled: "Okay."

Si Chengyun retreated on an island in the middle of an artificial lake, and the scenery was pretty good.A few people stepped on the water and skimmed to the island. Just outside the gate, they heard the sound of cups falling from inside the room.Luo Fan thought that something strange was about to step forward, but Si Chengque stopped him, and then the door slowly opened, and an attendant walked out and immediately closed it.

This attendant was dressed in a green shirt like a jade carving, and his eyes were resolute and resolute like engraved carvings. He was not an ordinary attendant at a glance.Before Si Chengque could ask a question, "Jade Carving" saluted first, and said: "Young master, the sect leader has said, if you have something to do, you can just send the messenger bird to pass the message, you don't have to come here in person."

Si Chengque: "A distinguished guest came to visit my father today, please Shaoyun pass it on for me."

Shaoyun: "The master's recent practice is at a critical moment, no one will be seen, and the distinguished guests will forgive me."

It wasn't the first time Si Chengque had heard this reason. Although he was dissatisfied, he couldn't show it, and looked at Luo Fanxin silently.Luo Fanxin has already realized that this servant named Shaoyun has an unusual status in Si Cheng's family. He is not dressed in ordinary door uniforms or servant clothes. Even Si Chengque's attitude towards him is very polite. The head of Sicheng trusts him very much.

Luo Fanxin: "It's about Jiang's and Yan's massacre. More than 100 lives were lost in the two families. Is the head of Sicheng still ignoring it?"

Shaoyun: "The affairs of the sect have already been handed over to the young master. The young master is resourceful, so there is no need for the master to bother."

But Luo Fanxin asked Shaoyun inexplicably, "I don't know what your Excellency's job is?"

Shaoyun neither humble nor overbearing said: "Don't dare to be a distinguished guest and say 'Your Excellency', Shaoyun is just a servant, sweeping the floor, doing laundry, and cooking."

Luo Fanxin suddenly laughed: "Aren't you wronged?"

Shaoyun looked at him: "Your words are wrong, why do you feel wronged by doing things for the master?"

Si Chengque was also puzzled. Shaoyun had followed his father for many years, and his father not only cared for him, but was even more affectionate than his own son. He taught him all his skills. Even though he was overqualified and useless in doing these trivial things, it didn't matter. I am wronged.

Luo Fan said in his heart, "Since you are the personal servant of the head of the city, you must never have to do such things as cooking and sweeping the floor, let alone do the laundry for women, right? Now you have to do it yourself, how do you feel?"

Si Chengque was shocked, and saw a trace of unnatural expression on Shaoyun's face, and then he calmed down again.

He responded swiftly: "Your honored guest is joking, except for the head of the house, Shaoyun is the only person here, and there are no women's clothes."

Luo Fanxin: "Really? I just saw that the colorful clothes hanging on the clothesline belong to you?"

Shaoyun didn't change his face: "The thing hanging on it is a tablecloth, it should be the honored guest's misreading."

Luo Fanxin continued: "Sect Master Sicheng is practicing at a critical moment, I don't know why there was a sound of cups falling in the room just now, you should go in and have a look, masters can change in a blink of an eye, in case the master of Sicheng is on the verge of failure , how can you tell me to wait?"

Shaoyun still stood still: "The sect leader's skills are outstanding, how can he defeat them so easily, honorable guests don't have to worry."

Luo Fan smiled heartily: "That's true, but it's still more important to be careful. The genius doctor who is alone has warned that it is advisable to eat light food and avoid spicy food when practicing in retreat. I saw a lot of peppercorns planted outside the hospital. Madam likes the taste of peppercorns?"

Shaoyun's expression changed slightly, and he immediately replied: "The person in the room is the head of the sect, how could it be Madam?!"

Luo Fan curled his lips in his heart: "I just asked Madam if she likes the smell of peppercorns. When did you say that the person in the room is Madam?"

As soon as this remark came out, everyone's expressions were different, and Si Chengque's face was even more perplexed, and his gaze towards Luo Fanxin was flickering.

Luo Fanxin just lied a few words based on his own speculation, thinking that even if he said something wrong, it doesn't matter much, as long as he can follow the vine to learn more about the truth, but the more the vine is pulled, the more flaws he has, the more he heals. It's not easy to be sure.Seeing Si Chengque's panicked eyes, Luo Fan couldn't bear it, but he had to say: "Brother Hong Yan doesn't know, when I came here, I passed by Hualian Nunnery, and there is no such person as Mrs. Yuanhui in the nunnery."

Si Chengque remained motionless, but the hand holding the flute was clenched tighter and tighter, and the color of his lips gradually dimmed, almost pale.

Shaoyun suddenly stepped into the door and slammed the latch with a bang.Si Chengque couldn't wait any longer, so he flew onto the wall with a single step, waving the brocade flute back and forth a few times in his hand, under the pressure of layers of purple light, the barrier in the courtyard finally collapsed.Si Chengque fluttered into the courtyard, Luo Fanxin and the others did not want to wait, and followed him into the courtyard.

That Shaoyun stretched his arms to block the room like an arhat, but he was holding a broom in his hand like a supreme steel sword, quite majestic.

Si Chengque said angrily, "Get out of the way!"

Shaoyun said firmly: "The young master must not offend the head!"

Si Chengque's eyes were bloodshot: "How long do you want to keep it from me?!"

The confrontation between the two was tense, and at this moment a voice suddenly came from the door: "Let Queer in."

It was the voice of a kind woman.

Shaoyun made way sideways, and the door opened, and a woman was sitting inside, with an orchid-like demeanor, who looked exceptionally young—it turned out to be the mother of Si Chengque, Mrs. Si Cheng, the mistress of the Phantom Gate.

Mrs. Si Cheng had tears in her eyes, but her conversation was very calm and calm. She didn't have the excitement of an ordinary woman who hasn't seen her son for a long time. She said calmly: "I haven't seen you for a few years. Que'er's demeanor is better than before. He already has a master." His majesty will definitely do better than your father in the future."

Si Chengque didn't know what to say anymore, if Luo Fanxin and others insisted on coming to see the head today, he didn't know how many years he would have to wait honestly to understand the truth.He knelt down on his knees, took his mother's hands and placed them on his forehead, without saying a word.

Mrs. Si Cheng helped him up, and sighed, "Que'er, I have been hiding it from you for so long, but I still can't hide it from you. In fact, your father died of serious injuries after declaring that he was retreating."

Si Chengque suddenly raised his head, his eyes filled with disbelief.

"This matter has to start with the Battle of Beiyou a few years ago." Mrs. Si Cheng burst into tears, wiped away just one drop, and explained the whole story in detail.

Not long after the Battle of Beiyou, the head of the Jiang family who was originally attached to the Huo family in Jishui accidentally learned that Huo Yuan wanted to get Yulong Zhansheng, and that he secretly colluded with the demon girl Ji Mingye to help him travel in the central land area. To provide convenience and provide news to the Man Yao clan.This matter was so important, Jiangmen didn't want to join forces, so he quietly came to the Phantom Gate to inform Si Chengyun about it, and gradually left Huo's family to join the Phantom Gate.But the Huo family is powerful and has many vassals. Without conclusive evidence, there is no way to expose him to the Yimeng family.

Not long after that, Si Chengyun encountered an ambush while going out. A leader with strong martial arts led dozens of men in black to besiege him, and a woman beat drums and bells from the side. The sound was not powerful but extremely disturbing. Because of this, Si Chengyun fell down and was killed by the man in black.
