Chapter 173 News from home
Under the banner of Oriental Fairy Boy, in the corridor near the Balongling Orchard, Guo Lingli and Yin Jing were about to leave for the Fruit Inspection Hall when a figure blocked their way.
Le Xiaoyao was dressed in a green shirt, with a handsome face and a cunning light in his eyes. He bowed to the two of them and said meaningfully, "We will work together under Dongfang Xiantong in the future. Let's get to know each other. My name is Le Xiaoyao."
Silver Mirror looked Le Xiaoyao up and down, a hint of a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he turned to Guo Lingli and whispered: "Sister Mei, look, he has an eagle."
Le Xiaoyao frowned slightly when he heard this, but soon he smiled in relief, as if he didn't care about Yin Jing's ridicule. He smiled and said, "It seems that you two have seen the photo stone."
Guo Lingli smiled back, but there was a bit of scrutiny in her eyes: "You played that photo stone in public, who wouldn't know about it?"
Le Xiaoyao was silent for a moment, as if thinking about something. He sighed and said, "I know you are with Leng Xing. Thank him for me." After that, he turned and left.
Guo Lingli looked at his receding back and asked, "How do you think he knew that the photo stone was given to him by Leng Xing?"
Yin Jing raised an eyebrow and said, "What do you mean Leng Xing gave it to him? It was obviously me who gave it to him."
Guo Lingli suddenly realized. She remembered the scene when Le Xiaoyao was knocked down by the six-winged divine eagle during the previous battle with Leng Xing.
She nodded and said, "No wonder he said thank you to Leng Xing. After all, it was Leng Xing who fought against him, and someone else recorded him being knocked down. If Leng Xing hadn't shown mercy, he would have died. Plus, he was given the photo stone, which gave him a perfect excuse to come back. He should really thank Leng Xing and his friends."
The two walked forward while talking, but inadvertently discovered that Le Xiaoyao was standing in a hidden place, talking in a low voice with a fat monk.
Upon seeing this, Yin Jing quickly took out a breath-suppressing talisman from his bosom, gently patted it on the two of them, and then pulled Guo Lingli quietly closer.
The monk was wearing a cassock and had a kind face, but his eyes revealed a bit of sharpness.
When he saw Le Xiaoyao, he laughed and asked, "Is your master okay?"
Le Xiaoyao quickly smiled and saluted, "Long time no see, Master Buddha!"
The monk laughed and teased: "If you don't strive for progress, even if you make it to the third level, you won't be afraid that your master will peel off your skin."
Le Xiaoyao said with a playful smile: "Master is not interested in my skin, but he told me not to forget the Buddha's instructions."
The monk called Buddha nodded and said, "The Guo Lingli beside you is fake, not her."
Le Xiaoyao's handsome face froze, and he put away his playful smile. He asked doubtfully, "She has been with me for four years. How could she be fake?"
"She doesn't have the aura of the Dragon Bone Treasure Map. She must not be the real Guo Lingli."
Le Xiaoyao frowned and pondered, "Could it be that the people from Zhoushan got there first?"
The monk sighed and said, "We didn't get any benefits from Zhoushan. After Master Lingyuan escaped from Guojiazhuang five years ago, he was imprisoned in Hantan for alerting the enemy. He has recently completed his sentence and I'm afraid he will appear in Guojiazhuang again. If you have a chance, go and see if there is a dragon bone treasure map on the youngest child?"
Le Xiaoyao replied respectfully: "Yes! I will follow the orders of the old Buddha."
The monk then instructed, "By the way, Guo Lingli has become the person everyone is looking for. You should hurry up and find a way to find her."
Le Xiaoyao nodded in agreement, but was thinking about his own plan in his mind.
He thought of the fake Guo Lingli who had been following him all the time, and perhaps he could use her as bait to lure out the real Guo Lingli.
The big monk seemed to see through his thoughts, smiled slightly, turned around and disappeared into the night.
His figure was so light that it seemed as if a gust of wind could blow it away.
Le Xiaoyao stood there, watching the monk leave, but his heart was filled with indescribable emotions: the person he had protected for four years was actually a fake. He felt a little sarcastic about himself.
Guo Lingli and Yin Jing hid in the dark. After the monk left, Guo Lingli frowned and asked softly, "That monk looks like the legendary Maitreya Buddha. His characteristics are too obvious. I just don't know why he is looking for me?"
Yin Jing said seriously, "No matter what these people want from you, we must be careful. The monk's magic power is not bad, at least above the twenty-third heaven. We can't take it lightly."
Seven years passed like a flash. For the first time in these long years, Guo Lingli heard the familiar yet unfamiliar news about her family. There was a hint of complexity in her eyes.
She whispered, "Do you know, Silver Mirror? I left home when I was seven years old. I have always been homesick in my heart, but fate has prevented me from returning.
Now, I finally know the recent situation of my family. It seems that something happened in my family five years ago, which is related to the spiritual affinity of Zhoushan. A few years ago, the snake demon in Zhoushan almost took my father's life. This matter is definitely not simple.
Now, their target has fallen on their younger sister Meili again, still for the treasure map.
I have to go back. I want to personally check on the safety of my family and check if there is the treasure map they mentioned at home. "
Yin Jing stood beside her and gently opened the folding fan in her hand. The flowers, birds, fish and insects on the fan swayed gently in the breeze.
He pondered for a moment, a glimmer of wisdom flashed in his eyes, and then he smiled and said to Guo Lingli: "Don't worry, Sister Mei. Le Xiaoyao has already sought the position of guardian, and he will definitely return to Guojiazhuang.
He still owes us a favor, so we can follow him back quietly, which can ensure our safety and secretly observe the situation there.
I believe that Oriental Fairchild will allow us to do this."
Guo Lingli sighed, frowned, and a conflicted look appeared on his face.
"Yin Jing, you are right. I also understand that only by going back with Le Xiaoyao can the risk be minimized. However, I always have a bad feeling in my heart that this trip back will bring greater danger to my family. This conflicting feeling makes me unable to calm down."
Yin Jing gently patted Guo Lingli's shoulder and comforted her, "I understand your contradiction. In fact, the closer you are to home, the more timid you are. You have to know that there are always many crossroads in life. Once you choose a different path, you can never go back to the past.
You have been away from home for seven years and have already embarked on your own path, while your family members are also on their own paths.
We cannot predict the future, but we can choose how to face the present.
I believe that as long as we act carefully, we can resolve the crisis."
A gleam of determination flashed in Guo Lingli's eyes. When there was no news, she could still hold back. But now that she heard the news from home and the unknown dangers, she felt a strong desire to return home.
