While waiting for Lan Zhi to reply, Yu Hua took another look. Although she couldn't see clearly from a distance, she could barely remember her figure.

After Lan Zhi answered a few words politely, the carriage made a detour and headed towards the side door not far away.

The side door is a small stone door, engraved with patterns resembling fireworks, which are also the family crest of Xie's family. After entering the side door, there is a small path paved with cobblestones. The trees on both sides are also blooming in this winter, and Yu Hua has sharp eyes. It can be found that the stones under these trees are all wood spirit stones. It is because of the nourishment of these wood spirit stones that these green plants have always maintained their vitality.

Regardless of whether it is in the mortal world or in the practice world, this is the work of a big family.

"I'll take a few of you to the guest room first." Xie Guan said, and personally led them to a gazebo. A copper bell with a red string was hung in the middle of the hexagonal gazebo. After three rings, the Some birds circled down from the top of the mountain, turning into a size that can carry people.

"It's too tiring to walk up the stairs, let's take this." Xie Guan said as he motioned for them to go up.

Yu Hua stretched out her hand to touch the smooth and supple feathers of the bird. The bird tilted its head to look at her and blinked, then rubbed its head against her palm very kindly.

"It's strange, it's not usually so clingy." The maid waiting in the gazebo said doubtfully.

Afraid of arousing unnecessary suspicion, Yu Hua also immediately withdrew her hand. Fortunately, Xie Guan's attention was attracted by the Lan Zhi pressing her face, and he didn't notice the movement here.

The few people rode the birds all the way up the mountainside, Xie Guan specially arranged for them the room with the widest view, and said proudly: "The scenery here is the best, not only can you see the whole Ningcheng, but you can also see Most of the city lord's mansion looks like a girl, you don't have to be polite to live here, just treat it as your own home."

"Thank you, young master. If you hadn't helped me this time, the three of us would have slept on the street." Lan Zhi said politely, with a look of crying.

"Hey, no need to thank you. It's inconvenient for you two weak women to bring a child with you. It's good to have a place to stay. There's also the fireworks display tonight, which is also one of the best viewing spots. You guys are hungry, if you want something to eat, ring the copper bell in front of the door, and someone will bring it to you." Xie Guan was still talking with joy on his face, a servant had already arrived at the door, and the servant gave a low cough , reminded in a low voice, "Young master, the master is still waiting for you."

Only then did Xie Guan stop talking, and looked at the servant with dissatisfaction, then sighed in a low voice, "You two, I still need to accompany my father to meet guests, so I will excuse you first."

As he said he was about to leave, Yu Hua immediately gave Lan Zhi a wink, Lan Zhi bit her lower lip slightly, and looked at her with a stiff expression.

Yu Hua's eyes widened, expressing with her eyes: You are using my face, what are you afraid of.

After struggling again and again, seeing that Xie Guan was about to go out, Lan Zhi gritted her teeth and shouted, "Young Master, wait a moment." She said and ran to Xie Guan in two steps, her tongue and teeth were fighting, and she took out a small baby from her arms. purse.

In Xie Guan's eyes, that face that was flushed red because of embarrassment looked like a girl's shyness, which was especially touching, and he couldn't help but feel very good.

"Well, this young master has done us a great favor, and I have nothing to repay. This is my beautiful purse, please take it and wear it." Lan Zhi lowered her head, how to say this sentence is so awkward, I can't wait to take a bite Bite your own tongue off.

"I'm definitely willing to accept this girl's wishes." Xie Guan was overjoyed, feeling that he had something to say, and was about to say a few more words, but the servant next to him reminded him twice, so he was reluctant gone.

After he left, Lan Zhipeng closed the door with a bang, and let out a long breath. She had never given a purse to anyone in her life, and now she was so embarrassed that she wanted to find a crack in the ground. Thinking of her embarrassment here, she made a plan The man was watching the play nearby, so he couldn't help but raised his head and gave her a hard look.

"Don't be so fierce, you came up with this plan at first." Yu Hua looked at her with a smile, and took a sip of hot tea without haste.

Lan Zhi knew that she couldn't take advantage of Yu Hua verbally, so she turned her head to look at Yu Chen and said deliberately, "You are not usually so affectionate with me, why are you sitting so close to her now?"

"I'm Xueling, I don't need to look, I need to smell." Yuchen said slowly, following Yuhua's example.

Hearing this, Lanzhi's face darkened, feeling bored, she walked to the side and sat down.

The City Lord's Mansion's family has a big business, and they definitely don't know the way. They just gave Xie Guan a tracking charm in his purse. As long as he took it with him and was not found, they could find a place to sneak past.

Yu Hua went to the terrace and looked out, as Xie Guan said, she could have a panoramic view of the whole Ningcheng, such a grandeur, did not show the Xie family's ambition.

She fumbled for the jade tablet hidden in her sleeve lightly, closing her eyes and thinking.

Xie Guan is just a key, since the Xie family will brazenly meet with the Viper Sect sub-helm, presumably they have a lot to do with each other, and they are tantamount to being on the enemy's territory.

In the end, it fell into the puddle of water.

Yu Hua sighed softly.

The sigh fell into Lan Zhi's ears. She took a sip of water and looked at Yu Hua, "Don't sigh anymore, I dragged you in for this trip, and I will take responsibility."

"Oh, I didn't expect you to be able to say good things that I love to hear." Yu Hua leisurely turned her head and looked at her with a sad yet relieved expression.

"Don't make such an expression on my face." Lan Zhi felt veins popping out of her head, and the teacup in her hands would be crushed with a little effort.

Yu Hua shrugged, walked back and sat cross-legged opposite her.

Now Lan Zhi has become much more talkative, and Yu Hua couldn't help but think that when she saw her outside Yaoguang Cave, she looked at her face with her chin in her hand, and asked the question that she had been puzzled for a long time. Mouth: "What is the relationship between you and the person who was with you in Xuefeng Mountain?"

Lan Zhi's hand holding the teacup paused for a moment, his face was visibly absent-minded for a moment, his drooping eyes seemed to contain the cold wind and snow.

Originally thinking that she would not answer this question, Yu Hua was about to give up when she heard her voice.

"That's my master. Ever since I was tricked into Viper's Gate, Master has been taking care of me. He taught me a lot. Originally, he wanted to find a way to get rid of the medicine seeds and find a place to hide, but he didn't expect The devilish energy planted in his body will suddenly get out of control, it shouldn't be like this." Her tone became lower and lower, with a choked tone.

"Are most of the people in Viper's Gate ignorant?" Seeing her sad, Yu Hua changed the subject.

"It's not all." Lan Zhi stabilized his emotions, but his tone was still a little unsteady, "15 years ago, there was a famine, and the fairy sect didn't care about it. Corrupt officials swallowed most of the disaster relief food issued by the royal family. Although the Emperor Thunderbolt killed one batch after another, there were still tens of thousands of refugees who had to leave their homes in order to seek a way of life. The affected refugees had many children in their families, so it was impossible to take care of each of them. In that year, Most of the children who were abandoned and sold were taken in by Viper Sect."

Yu Hua frowned slightly. She was only one year old 15 years ago, so she didn't know so much. Occasionally, she heard her mother mention it, but she took it to heart, but she didn't want to have such a tragic situation.

"But why does the fairy gate not care?" Yu Hua asked.
