"Why did Hua Mian say that in the first place?" Jiang Lianhuan asked Hua Rongyue.

"We should just make him sober up." Hua Rongyue said, "He is a stupid person, and there are some things he wants to say more clearly."

"It's quite strange that a person of Fu Jiang's status would actually listen to what Hua Mian said." Jiang Lianhuan said.

"Because Hua Mian later told him that it's not impossible if you want to get rid of Hua Chuan's control." Hua Rongyue said calmly.

"He said that Huachuan was originally a place composed of lunatics. If one day there are not so many lunatics in the world, Fujiang will naturally be able to get rid of control."

After Jiang Lianhuan listened to Hua Rongyue's words, he remained silent for a long time.

The two of them were chatting while enjoying the cold wind. Jiang Lianhuan stood up and said, "Forget it, it's getting late. I should go back."

"What are you going back for? Isn't there nothing wrong?" Hua Rongyue said doubtfully, "But now even I have returned to Liumen and received a false position as a mascot. Otherwise, you can go back too. Anyway, everyone

Everyone knows you are still alive."

"Forget it." Jiang Lianhuan shook his head, "The Shiba Pavilion still needs me. Wu Ming doesn't know how long he can live. The Shiba Pavilion can't live without me. Some time ago, they even sent me a flower boat.

There's a gift...I haven't gone back to look at it yet. I'll decide what to do after I've taken care of all these things."

Hua Rongyue watched Jiang Lianhuan leave and silently took a bite of the cake in his hand.

The gift Jiang Lianhuan was talking about was "Li Cai". Jiang Lianhuan once asked Hua Mian to kill this person, but when Hua Rongyue was counting the people that night, he tied her up and threw her to Jiang Lianhuan.

Hua Rongyue was curious about why Jiang Lianhuan was so obsessed with Li Cai, so she asked him once as Hua Mian. Jiang Lianhuan could lie to Hua Rongyue, but he would never lie to Hua Mian.

He hesitated for a while and then said, "That was a story from a long time ago."

"Once Li Cai wanted to get a perfect Gu King, so she adopted a child.

"This child also has a friend. He is a child of a noble family. It is not easy for this child who is regarded as the King of Gu to make a friend, but Li Cai is happy to see it happen."

"Because she wants this kid to kill the kid from that aristocratic family. She thinks that the kid who kills her friend has a greater chance of becoming a Gu King."

"The children of the aristocratic family were unaware at first and had a lot of fun playing with him. But after a while, the children of the aristocratic family with keen minds realized the true thoughts of the child. At that time, he did not say anything immediately, he just wanted to see

Will that kid do anything?"

"...then what?" Hua Mian asked.

"When that kid took action, the kid from the aristocratic family killed him one step ahead of him." Jiang Lianhuan said.

Hua Mian was silent for a while after listening.

"That's it..."

Jiang Lianhuan said calmly, "What's strange is that after killing my friend, I suddenly found that my eyes turned red."

"I was very angry at the time, but it wasn't him I was angry with."

Hua Mian asked curiously, "Then...who are you angry about?"

"I'm angry at myself."

"Obviously I have known about this for a long time. I have always known that he had evil intentions, and I was sensible enough to kill him..."

"But I'm still crazy because of him."

Jiang Lianhuan put on the mask without eyes after saying, "Goodbye Mr. Hua Mian, we will talk to you later when we have a chance."

Hua Rongyue watched Jiang Lianhuan leave, followed by people from Shibating.

This group of people are more like shadows in the night than the flower boats. Once they enter the night, they disappear without a trace.

…

"What...are you going to do next?" asked.

"I don't know." Lu Liusheng felt that he had nothing to do since Huang Jiao died.

What he often does now is lie on his back in bed in a daze, not knowing what to do or what he is thinking.

He has been like this since he came back from the flower boat that night.

If Hua Rongyue is a bad person, he feels that he still has someone he can hate. But if Hua Rongyue is not, then...who else can he hate?

Lu Liusheng didn't know clearly, but he vaguely had one option in his mind - himself.

As soon as he lay down now, he felt as if he was being swallowed by countless shadows, and there were countless hands in the darkness trying to pull him down.

"You have to find something to do. You can't continue to be so decadent." He dragged Lu Liusheng to stand up.

"Leave me alone, I just want to be alone for a while."

Looking at Lu Liushang, he sighed and suddenly said: "Some time ago, someone gave me a commission... He didn't want to give it to me at first, but asked me to hand it over to the most astute person in the world.

, of the best-informed man.”

Lu Liusheng still had his back turned.

But I saw that his ears perked up unconsciously.

The corner of his mouth twitched, and he wanted to laugh but suppressed it.

"By the way, what he asked me to do is something that most people can't do because it's really dangerous. He wanted me to explore the original source of the poisonous insects in the world..."

"Exploring the original source of the Gu?" Lu Liusheng suddenly climbed up from the bed.

As if he suddenly came to life again, he asked, "Who is the person who gave you this commission?"

"It's flower noodles." He said, "He also gave me a big price. This money is enough for us to travel outside for three years. Do you want to go?"

Lu Liusheng was not interested in money or anything like that, but when he heard the words "source of poisonous insects", he suddenly seemed to have found some meaning.

"Then you...then what did you ask me to do?" Lu Liusheng was still arrogant, "I'm not smart and I'm not well-informed..."

"Oh, stop talking nonsense, hurry up and pack your things, time is urgent, we will set off immediately." He said, "I have promised in advance that this journey is very dangerous, and you may die on the way if you are not careful.

"

Lu Liusheng murmured in a low voice, "Isn't it just death? Who cares about this..." When he was halfway through cleaning up, he suddenly raised his head and asked, "By the way, you kid doesn't usually look like you know anything about the mountain."

Tiger, a person who prefers traveling to the mountains, why are you so active today?"

"Because this is also considered my housework." He said.

"Um?!"

Stretching out his hand, a butterfly landed on it, "Aren't you curious about why our sect is always so well-informed? In fact, my ancestor was born in Miao territory, which is the base camp of all kinds of Gu insects."

"I heard some news recently, so I wanted to go back and take a look."

When Lu Liusheng heard the news, he was so shocked that he couldn't recover for a long time.

He looked at the butterfly on his fingertips. Although he had always known that butterflies were used to convey messages, he had never thought of going to such a place.

"I have told you my biggest secret." He said, "So for the next three years, my life will be in your hands. You have to protect me so that I can survive."

Lu Liusheng looked at it, a little confused. When he met, this guy had always been the worst in martial arts and the most life-saving among his peers. He had never seen him so serious about seeking death.

He thought for a moment and nodded.

Think of it as atonement.

Lu Liusheng thought.

Instead of letting his time be wasted in confession, it would be better to go out and do something vigorously. If he can really accomplish something, at least he can feel better in his heart.

…

"This action is wrong." Hua Rongyue pointed out Li Jingyi's sword-drawing action.

She now spends all day in Baicaotang, and the handsome young man who originally wanted to retire was caught by her and continued to squat in the flower boat as a flower noodle.

Hua Rongyue is now either petting the cat or basking in the sun every day. Her life is so leisurely that it is incredible, as if she has returned to her previous life.

It rained at this time, and the rainwater fell along the eaves.

"Stop practicing Jingyi, it's raining." Hua Rongyue shouted outside.

She has recently been thinking about giving Li Jingyi a good training to familiarize her with the affairs of Huachuan, so that the people in Huachuan can slowly accept the young master.

Xiao Han was still cracking melon seeds. A few days had passed since Hua Rongyue came back from the flower boat. A Zhe also came back. The lady opposite seemed to know nothing and still welcomed him with a smile.

Maybe it's because A Zhe didn't see Xiao Han in the flower boat last time, so he hasn't bothered Xiao Han recently. In the past, he would have secretly stared at Xiao Han like a curious baby, as if he was the best in the world.

Like a spy.

"Oh, that boy is here to see you again." Xiao Han raised his head and glanced at the door, with a look of disgust on his face.

Hua Rongyue looked up and saw Yi Guzhou standing at the door.

Yi Guzhou looked thin and frail, and his body was very frail. If he didn't say it, no one would be able to recognize what he did, but the look he looked at Hua Rongyue was very cold.

"Brother Hua..." When Li Jingyi saw Yi Guzhou, she looked at Hua Rongyue worriedly. Hua Rongyue was not anxious at all and smiled at her, "It's okay. I'll take it easy with this young hero."

Let’s talk slowly.”

She followed Yi Guzhou to the backyard.

I don’t know why, but since Yi Guzhou returned to Tianyi Tower, he inexplicably likes to come to Baicaotang, almost every two days.

"You..." He looked at Hua Rongyue with a look of disgust on his face, "Why are you still here? Is this place interesting?"
