Chapter 18 Ligu
Hua Xin was even more surprised and asked in disbelief: "It's impossible. Your mother Wu Rou is the main disciple of Master Xuanzhen of Emei. She left with her master back then, so she should have inherited the head. How could it not exist? Then what is the name of the head of Emei now?"
Jiang Lin scratched his head and said, "It seems that his surname is Wu, why is Wu Mei?" After all, Jiang Lin is a little old and has a bad memory, so he has to look at his young master.
Jiang Chen seemed to have not yet walked out of his low mood. When he heard the old servant's uncertainty question, he said affirmatively: "Yes, call me Wu Mei!"
"Wu Mei?" Hua Xin pondered, "Isn't it a change of name?"
"I think so too, and this person looks exactly like my mother, but she personally said that she is not my mother, nor is she Wu Rou, she is Wu Mei, the current head of Emei!"
Jiang Chen even had some resentment in his puzzled memories, but the state of not being happy with things but not being sad with oneself that he had developed through reading for ten years has disappeared. "Since then, I have never looked for it again, but I have always wondered whether she is my mother? Or have she lost her memory and forgotten her former mother?"
Hua Rou couldn't figure it out, and when she heard Jiang Chen's guess again, she said with some uncertainty: "There is a holy medicine in Mount Emei that can make people forget the past, called Emei Divine Water. Just drink a small bottle and make people forget their past and present lives! Maybe, your mother has drunk this water, so she is so heartless?!"
Jiang Chen sighed and said nothing more. Seeing that Jiang Chen was so depressed, Hua Rou said goodbye: "Chen'er, you rest here first. Just follow the arrangements of the Great Elder. I will order someone to send some supper later."
After seeing that there were no outsiders on the scene, Jiang Chen sat next to Jiang Lin and asked indirectly: "Uncle Jiang, how did you find this place?" Although Jiang Chen didn't think Jiang Lin would be a spy or something, he still felt that Jiang Lin was hiding something from him.
Seeing Jiang Chen's expression and the tone of questioning, Jiang Lin knew that his young master had doubts about him, so he decided not to hide it anymore and watched around for a week. Except for his young master's book boy Jiang Wen, there were no outsiders, and he coughed and said, "Young Master, the master is not dead!"
These words rang in Jiang Chen's mind like thunder. Jiang Chen was so shocked that he stood up suddenly, grabbed Jiang Lin's hand excitedly and said, "What did you say, my father is not dead?"
Jiang Lin looked at the excited young master and couldn't help but sigh in his heart. Although his young master seemed to be very plain about everything, there were shadows everywhere in his ordinary heart, including confusion, doubts, loneliness, and sadness! But as a servant, he could only take care of the young master in every life, but in his heart and emotion, he could do nothing, and could only accompany him torture...
Now, the young master finally burst out the shadow of his father. Even if he was caught in pain, Jiang Lin was happy. Hearing the young master's uncertain question, Jiang Lin replied in a serious and affirmative tone: "Yes, young master! In fact, when you come back from the academy, the master is welcomed. He is unwilling to bring your former enemies to you, so he appears under my identity!"
Suddenly, Jiang Chen seemed to remember when he just returned to Qingyang's hometown from the academy, when he saw Jiang Lin and others who were greeting him, he couldn't help but feel like he had been together for a long time. At that time, he just thought that he had only been away from home for too long, but now he thought, why did my father meet him again after a long time?
Jiang Chen suddenly recalled the mysterious commemorative knife and secret book that Jiang Lin gave him that night, and asked subconsciously, "From the time when I went home to something happened, were you pretended to be by my father?"
Jiang Lin nodded and said, "Yes!"
Hearing Jiang Lin's confirmation, Jiang Chen suddenly realized, "So that's it, I'm just saying that my father would not be so careless about giving the family magic weapons and secrets to the servant for custody, even if this servant is so loyal and trustworthy! I believe that Chen'er on the top of Jiuhua Mountain was called by him, so he would like to remind me! Unfortunately..."
After learning the truth, Jiang Chen did not think that his father was not as good as those ambushers, but he has never appeared yet. That shows a problem, follow the clues!
"But why is my father so sure that I will not die if I fall down from such a high cliff or be seriously injured. Even so, I should come to find me to save me as soon as possible. But he actually ignored my life and death. He should have gone to chase the enemy, right?" Jiang Chen didn't dare to think about it anymore, for fear that he would be abandoned again!
Jiang Chen forced himself to suppress the doubts in his heart and said to Jiang Lin, Jiang Wen, Jiang Wu: "You have been rushing to the mountain road for a day. Hurry up and find the elder to find a place to stay and have a rest. We have to hurry to go tomorrow. By the way, Jiang Wen will stay in the magic medicine valley tomorrow and take care of Uncle Mao for me!"
After a while, Hua Rong and a few servants brought a lot of food. Jiang Chen thanked him in advance, "Thank you, Master Shao!" Hua Rong was displeased when she heard this, pretended to be angry, "I have called my mother, Aunt Hua, and I still call her Master Shao?"
Jiang Chen slapped his head and said, "Look at me, I must have broken my head and actually talked nonsense! Please forgive me, Sister Huarong!"
Hua Rong snorted and said, "I'm pretty sensible, I'm forgiven you!"
Jiang Chen smiled and made a letter of greeting from the scholar, "Thank you!"
Hua Rong burst into laughter, and saw Jiang Chen dazed, but she saw Hua Rong reaching out and saying, "Get it?"
Jiang Chen touched it for a long time before taking out a knife from his chest and handed it to Hua Rong and said, "Here, I'll give you a souvenir. It was this knife that saved my life!"
When Hua Rong saw that Jiang Chen gave her an inexpensive knife, she said contemptuously: "Stop pretending to be garlic, you know what I want, don't use a broken knife to fool me!"
Jiang Chen said seriously: "It's not just fooling you. Don't look at this little knife, it's this little knife that blocked the ultimate arrow of a master of Earth Demon for me, so that I can't be killed!"
Hua Rong looked at the knife that seemed to be crushed by a heavy arrow, and suddenly remembered that when she was wiping Jiang Chen's back, she couldn't help but believe it a little, but she said, "Hurry up and return my handkerchief. It's okay if you don't, but you have to do me a favor!"
Seeing that he didn't have to return the handkerchief, Jiang Chen asked in surprise: "What's the matter? As long as you can help, I will never refuse!"
Seeing that her goal was achieved, Hua Rong turned around and walked, saying as she walked, "You remember, you owe me a favor!"
Jiang Chen looked at Hua Rong who was walking farther and farther away, subconsciously took out a handkerchief from his arms, put it next to his nose and sniffed it again and again, and said intoxicatedly: "Hua Rong, Master, I like you!" Unfortunately, Hua Rong was gone long ago, so naturally he couldn't hear Jiang Chen's declaration.
Only Wang Lin, who was serving next to him, could not help but sigh. His young master finally grew up!
The next morning, Jiang Chen took Jiang Lin and Jiang Wu to say goodbye to Huarong, but in the final stage, Huarong emerged and said, "Mom, I want to go out with Jiang Chen and others to find my father outside!"
Hua Hin naturally refused and said, "You girl's house, it's so dangerous to go in and out of the world. Your father will naturally be found by your senior brothers. And I have already sent a letter to your senior brother and asked him to help your father! Now, you should stay in the valley with me to practice martial arts and medicine!"
Hua Rong's eyes rolled and said, "It's okay not to look for my father, but I still want to leave the valley. I have never left the magic medicine valley after growing up so old, and I have never seen the world outside. My brothers have all gone out, and even my senior sister is outside at this time?"
Seeing that Hua Rong was about to make trouble, Jiang Chen could only say: "Aunt Hua, it's better to let Sister Hua Rong go to my house to stay for a while. It's also considered a place to go, but it may be more dangerous!"
When Hua Rong heard this, she hurriedly said, "Yes, this is a good idea. Mom, didn't you say that his family and us are neighbors? I just went to visit each other. If you are worried, I'll send someone to protect me!"
Hua Rong, who was about to continue speaking, suddenly heard the second senior brother's cough, and then had an idea and continued, "Well, I think the second senior brother is good. As the tenth best person, his martial arts are good, so you can rest assured, mother!"
Hua Xin understood that these people wanted to go out to play together, but when they thought that their daughter had never been in the valley since they were born, they felt a little soft-hearted. Then they thought of what she said to Wu Rou when Jiang Chen was full moon, "If you find your lover to give birth to a daughter in the future, you will definitely marry your daughter to Jiang Chen as your daughter-in-law." Although, Jiang Chen's parents have not seen each other for many years, no one seems to remember this joke, but I remember it. Now it is just right to take the opportunity to let the two get along more so that they can get along well in the future!
Thinking of this, Hua Hin finally nodded and agreed. While arranging Mo Feng to follow, he also sent his personal maid Wang Huan, who is also Hua Rong's nanny. Not only is he rich in experience in the martial arts world, but he also regards Hua Rong as his biological daughter! After all, Mo Feng is a boy and Hua Rong is a girl, and sometimes it is inconvenient to take care of him, so Wang Huan is the most suitable!
