Chapter 98 A Secret

"What did Sister see?"

"…Answer." Feng Yan said softly.

About the tree demon, about Wei Xingzhen...

Feng Yan had an intuition that she was very close to this answer.

...

When the three of them left the tomb and saw the sunlight again, Xiaoqi briefly covered his eyes with his hands.

Birds singing came from the trees near me, and the brilliant light shone from the gaps between the branches and leaves. Everything was peaceful near noon.

Xiaoqi tightly grasped Feng Yan's sleeves, and everything he saw underground was so scary that he could realize it.

"A Yan will take care of the next thing by herself." Mrs. Feng said softly, "It's just that there is one you have to remember..."

Feng Yan looked back at her aunt and waited seriously for her next sentence.

"Don't let your Majesty wait too long."

"I understand." Feng Yan said softly, "I will seize the opportunity."

Mrs. Feng nodded, "Then, my aunt is in Liufu Garden, waiting for your good news..." She turned her head and whispered, "Chenxiang--"

"Auntie, wait!" Feng Yan said suddenly.

"There's something else?"

Feng Yan nodded, and she lowered her head and took out a tip from her sleeve, "There is something I want to use to ask you again..."

Her fingers quickly untied the knot on the tip of the treasure. Before the uncensored jade was taken out, Mrs. Feng had already guessed what was in the tip of the treasure, and only Xiaoqi stared at it curiously.

Feng Yan whispered, "Why did you--"

"A Yan just put it away." Before Feng Yan took out the uncensored jade, the old lady Feng had already reached out and held the back of her hand, "No need to take it out."

"What kind of unpolished jade?" Xiaoqi asked, "Can I take a look?"

The old man smiled and said, "When you get married, you will have one."

Feng Yan looked at the old man's expression and the peaceful aura on her body, and slowly put the tip into her sleeve.

"Yu, 'pre'," the old man whispered, "When it plays its role, it will not be too late for A Yan to come to me again."

"...Okay." Feng Yan replied in a low voice.

Xiaoqi near him looked at his sister's sleeve and sighed softly.

——She was just curious, why didn’t her aunt let her see it?

The maid called Chenxiang slowly stepped forward and nodded to Feng Yan and Xiaoqi.

The old man whispered, "Take them out."

"yes."

"Does my aunt still stay on the mountain?" Xiaoqi asked, "How long will you stay this time?"

"When the matter is settled, go back." The old man replied with a smile.

Mrs. Feng stood there and looked at the backs of Feng Yan and Xiaoqi leaving. Xiaoqi turned his head several times along the way, and every time she saw her aunt raising her hand and waved her, as if she was saying "Don't look back."

The stone path at the foot leads straight ahead, and at the end of the road there is a white jade stele, which looks like the same material as the stone tablets in the underground tombs.

Xiaoqi saw four gold-plated characters on it from a distance, and when he approached, he saw clearly that it said "River and Mountains lead to grinding".

After passing the stone tablet, I will look back and see the words "Changling" with a vigorous font.

It turns out that the tombs belonging to the daughters of the Feng family also have a name - Changling, which is also quite nice.

"Sister, what does 'rifting rivers and mountains' mean?"

"Well, this is from the historical books that records the enthronement of the heroes of Emperor Shengyuan when he was awarded a meritorious official - 'Make the river like a belt, the Daishan Mountain is as sharp as a sharp mountain, and the country is as peaceful as a country, and loves the Miao people'.

"It's literally meaning, 'until the Luo River is as thin as a belt, and the Daizong Mountain is as small as a whetstone', we use this to describe a person's determination to never change even after turmoil."

Xiao Qi Ruo had some enlightenment - it turned out to be another saying that "the mountains have no edges, and the heaven and the earth are united."

Chenxiang took Xiaoqi and Feng Yan to the west gate of Liufu Garden. After watching them step out of the threshold of the gate, she immediately turned back.

Standing outside the door, Xiaoqi turned around again and glanced at the quiet manor behind him for the last time.

Among these mountains, there is a star that belongs to her and a temporarily vacant cemetery - this feeling is very wonderful, as if a road has been paved in the dark, but she still doesn't know what the road ahead is waiting for her.

"Xiao Qi... feels sad?" Feng Yan said softly.

"A little bit." Xiaoqi frowned, then let out a light breath, "I suddenly thought that there will be one day in the future, my sister and I will return here again - at that time we will be all white-haired old ladies, just like aunts."

Feng Yan smiled, "Probably."

"I don't like that cemetery," Xiaoqi whispered, "If I could choose, I would still like to bury it on the mountain and any big tree underground. I will return this body to the land, so that the flowers and plants growing in me will bloom more vigorously - how great it is!"

Speaking of this, Xiaoqi suddenly thought of something, "Ah...but there are also bad things."

"Um?"

"That wouldn't be able to live with Sister," Xiaoqi took Feng Yan's arm, "If you buried alone outside, you'd still be a little lonely, haha."

Feng Yan looked at the road ahead, "I don't like that tomb either."

Xiaoqi raised his head.

"So, before I die," Feng Yan's voice was low, "I won't let myself leave anything behind."

Xiaoqi was stunned, "Sister, you - you think farther than me!"

Feng Yan laughed, and she stretched out her little finger to her sister, "This idea is my secret. Xiaoqi should not tell anyone else, okay?"

"Hahaha," Feng Xiaoqi also smiled and stretched out his little finger, and tightly clasped with Feng Yan, "I can't say anything!"

...

"Tianshi-!!" Xiaoqi's voice echoed in the valley, "We are here!!!"

"Where are you people?!!"

There were overlapping echoes in the valley, repeatedly asking "where are people" and "where are people".

Suddenly, a burst of disturbance came from the bushes above the head, and many gravels fell down against the mountain flowers. Feng Yan and Xiao Qi raised their heads and saw Wei Xingzhen and Du Huanfeng falling from the sky.

The two of them landed one after another, then stood up and patted the dust on their bodies. Their clothes were all a little embarrassed by the branches growing when they fell.

"You..." Xiaoqi blinked, "Where did this come from?"

"I took Lord Wei to the top of the mountain to see the scenery for a while," Du Xuanfeng pulled off the spider web covering his forehead, "I didn't pay attention to the time, and it was delayed."

Wei Xingzhen walked to Feng Yan a few steps, "Is it over?"

"Yeah." Feng Yan nodded.

Du Huanfeng also looked over, "Then Mrs. Feng must have told you the whole story."

"Um."

"When will I do it?" Du Xuanfeng asked.

"Wait." Feng Yan replied.

"Wait?" Du Xuanfeng didn't understand, "How long does it take? Why should I wait?"
