Chapter 67 Temporary Combination
Chapter 67 Temporary Combination
"Junior sister wouldn't be that kind of person. Ye Yunqi must have brought his family with him." Lin Xiao said confidently.
When the righteous meet, what is the righteous path?
It's not just a region, it's a belief.
If Ye Yunqi was really a man who abandoned his wife and children, how could he meet his junior sister in the righteous way?
Aniu nodded. He believed what Lin Xiao said.
But Lin Xiao suddenly said, "We always thought that Junior Sister left with Ye Yunqi. What if it wasn't?"
Ah Niu was stunned by the question and said hesitantly: "Why...why not? If not, what else could it be?"
"We just thought that the two of them had been close recently, so we guessed that Junior Sister would evacuate with Ye Yunqi." Lin Xiao shook his head, "What if not? I wonder if this is possible."
Ah Niu was also silent.
If you think about it carefully, this is indeed a possibility.
"Brother, it's over now..." Ah Niu shook his head, throwing away the distracting thoughts from his mind. "It's useless for us to think about it any more."
Lin Xiao nodded, and suddenly heard a voice behind him.
"Senior Brother Lin, Senior Brother Aniu?"
The visitors were Meng Jingyang and Jiang Li.
But now these two seemed to have had a conflict. Jiang Li's eyes were red as if she had just cried, and her already delicate figure looked even more like a willow swaying in the wind.
She was holding a baby in her arms, and her clothes were covered in dust and mud.
Meng Jingyang was almost the same. When he saw Lin Xiao and A Niu, he suppressed his emotions and gave a forced smile.
"It's you." Lin Xiao and Aniu nodded. Aniu thought that these two were traveling quite fast.
However, Lin Xiao noticed the problem between the two.
But Lin Xiao was not the type to meddle in other people’s business, so he didn’t plan to say anything. He just nodded and prepared to leave again.
Jiang Li's slightly hoarse voice suddenly sounded: "Master Lin, Master Niu, are you looking for Sister Qingzi?"
These words stunned the two people who were about to leave.
Aniu stared straight at Jiang Li with his tiger eyes and almost rushed over.
Fortunately, Lin Xiao reached out his hand to stop Ah Niu, frowning slightly: "Huh?"
Jiang Li bowed and said, "My name is Jiang Li, the Jiang in Jiang Qingzi, and I am the younger sister of Sister Qingzi. I can help the two immortals find Sister Qingzi."
Lin Xiao was skeptical and didn't make any comment. He just asked, "What do you want?"
Jiang Li looked at Meng Jingyang, but Meng Jingyang turned his head slightly to avoid Jiang Li's gaze.
Jiang Li sighed inwardly, looked at Lin Xiao again, and said, "I only ask the Immortal to take the three of us away together."
Lin Xiao was silent.
Meng Jingyang snorted coldly: "You can go with them, why take me with you?"
Jiang Li said sadly: "Master..."
"I'm not your master!" Meng Jingyang said, then felt that it was a bit rude to get angry in front of Lin Xiao and Aniu, so he bowed to the two of them.
Not many people know that Miss Qingzi's surname is Jiang.
Jiang Li’s words are somewhat credible.
Since it concerns Miss Qingzi, Lin Xiao has to intervene.
"This is not a place to talk. Let's find an inn, take a rest, and then talk in detail." Lin Xiao made the decision. Meng Jingyang wanted to leave, but couldn't help it.
Although we are no longer brothers, we are still fireflies in the same boat, and I owe you a favor.
When they arrived at the inn, the four adults, with different thoughts in their minds, rested for a while and gathered in one room.
Only the little baby, who had been running all the way, was now a little more stable and sleeping particularly soundly. The child had always been held by Jiang Li. Meng Jingyang occasionally looked at him for a moment, then looked away with a complicated expression.
"You said you could find Miss Qingzi, is that true?" Aniu asked impatiently.
"Of course I wouldn't dare to deceive the two immortals." Jiang Li said affirmatively.
Lin Xiao believed this to some extent. After all, Jiang Li was just an ordinary man. If he lied to him, he would definitely not end up well.
But if we add them to the team, we have to consider their current situations.
Obviously there is a dispute.
So Lin Xiao asked: "What happened to you two?"
Jiang Li's expression darkened. Meng Jingyang sighed and slowly explained the whole story.
It turned out that during the journey, Jiang Li had been consuming blood and energy to activate the jade pendant, so that he became weaker and weaker. Meng Jingyang simply carried Jiang Li on his back.
Later, Jiang Li actually fainted.
Meng Jingyang felt sorry for Jiang Li and did not wake her up. He just used his limited spiritual energy to warm Jiang Li's blood.
After walking for a while, Meng Jingyang was worried that he had gone in the wrong direction, so he gritted his teeth and took out the jade pendant, ready to use the child's qi and blood to check the direction.
However, the jade pendant had no reaction at all. Meng Jingyang felt something was wrong. Now Jiang Li fainted again.
Without Jiang Li's cover, Meng Jingyang carefully checked and finally found that something was wrong with the child.
This is not your child!
Meng Jingyang was shocked and quickly woke up Jiang Li to ask what happened.
Seeing that the truth was exposed, Jiang Li had no choice but to say that he had replaced the child.
Meng Jingyang was furious, and the two quarreled for a while. Finally, Jiang Li cried and said, "We are already here, and Ningcheng is right in front of us. Do you still want to go back and look for it?"
"I will show you the way again. When we get to Ningcheng, the land of righteousness, I will let you decide how to atone for your sins."
Meng Yangyang was silent for a moment, feeling a little chilled.
First of all, it was almost like the pain of losing a child.
Secondly, what reason could Jiang Li have for doing this? It was nothing more than distrust.
But Jiang Li was telling the truth. They were almost reaching Ningcheng, so what else could they do?
So the two of them rushed to Ningcheng and met their two senior brothers.
When Meng Jingyang was talking about the incident, he concealed the matter of the jade pendant and only said that Jiang Li fainted due to overwork, and she checked on the child herself and found that the child had been replaced.
Ah Niu glared at Jiang Li angrily, but Jiang Li was in tears and looked aggrieved and pitiful, making her look more like a victim.
Ah Niu was a simple-minded man. Seeing this, he could not vent his anger and just asked, "Where is the child now?"
Jiang Li shook his head and refused to speak.
Aniu didn't know how to persuade him and looked at Lin Xiao.
Lin Xiao's attitude towards this matter was much more casual, and he calmly advised: "Junior brother, I know you are angry, but now that things have come to this, remember that a day of marriage is a hundred days of grace, so let's work together and make plans when we get to the right place!"
Meng Jingyang bowed and said, "Brother, what you said is exactly what I think."
"In that case, let's form a temporary team and go look for Junior Sister Qingzi together." Lin Xiao didn't say anything definite, just said it was temporary.
Meng Jingyang had no objection, so Jiang Li had no choice but to place his hopes on Jiang Qingzi.
The hand holding the baby slid silently over the jade pendant.
I only hope that Jiang Qingzi will not abandon me for the sake of the jade pendant.
