While the master and apprentice were arguing, the hardworking little green boy diligently ran back and forth twice and dragged the two unconscious children out of the cave.

As soon as she saw the 6-year-old child, Luo Yiyi pointed at him and blurted out: "Little fat boy!"

Qi Gui was surprised: "Master knows him?"

Then, Luo Yiyi briefly told him what happened in Cihuai Town that night.

Qi Gui understood: "So he should be the youngest son of the Yu family, Yu Han's younger brother?"

Luo Yiyi ran over to check on Yu Sheng's condition, then looked at the 9-year-old child next to her and found that both of them were pale and their lips had lost their color. It was obvious that the situation was not good.

"Gui Gui, come and take a look, what's wrong with them? Are they going to die?"

Qi Gui already knew the identity of the 9-year-old boy. He must be the young master of the Wen family, Wen Haoran, whom everyone was looking for. Unexpectedly, he was hidden in this small cave.

Where did the person who hid them here go? If it weren't for Yinyu's call for help and they followed him, the two children would definitely have died here.

Qi Gui walked over and squatted to check the condition of the two children.

"Don't worry, Master. They are just weak due to excessive hunger. They have no other injuries."

Qi Gui took out two fasting pills from his storage bag, used two fingers to pinch the children's mouths open, stuffed the fasting pills into their mouths, closed their mouths, and then tilted his head back.

The Bigu Pill slowly melted in their mouths and flowed down their throats into their stomachs. After waiting for a while, the two children's faces became visibly ruddy.

Before they woke up, Qi Gui told Luo Yiyi their identities and waited for her decision.

"Master, the Wen family's affairs are very complicated. If I were to intervene, I don't know what the consequences would be. Just to say that Doctor Yu's cultivation is higher than mine, not to mention the unfathomable Shen Die."

Luo Yiyi was puzzled: "But Shen Die is Wen Haoran's mother, she wouldn't hurt her own child, right?"

"But what if she has a reason or difficulty in doing this?"

Luo Yiyi didn't understand. In all the TV dramas and novels she had watched, the mothers were great and willing to give everything for their children. Even if they were mean to their children on the surface, they were actually doing it for the good of the children.

If a mother doesn't love her child, she would doubt whether her mother really wants her to go back? After all, she already has a younger brother. For a disabled person like her who has a soul, maybe it would be better for her to never appear in front of her again?

So, even for her own sake, she would not believe that Shen Die would really kill her child.

"Gui Gui, give them to Xia Zixuan."

"Yes, Master."

Just when Qi Gui thought that Luo Yiyi was not going to intervene, her next words shattered this delusion.

"Then we'll go find Shen Die. I want to find out why she hurt her husband and child. Is there any reason why she did that?"

Qi Gui was puzzled: "Is Shen Die's answer important to Master?"

Luo Yiyi nodded vigorously: "It's very important!"

Looking at her determined big eyes, Qi Gui hesitated for only a second before agreeing.

"Disciple, obey the order!"

----

On the other side, Xia Zixuan and the other two had just returned to the inn from Bai's house when Qi Gui, holding a child in each hand, kicked open the door of the inn in broad daylight.

Hearing the noise, the seven people in the room subconsciously stood in an arc-shaped defensive formation, and when they drew their swords together, they almost hit the person in front of them.

Xia Zixuan did not draw his sword. Someone who could make such a big noise would obviously not pose a threat, and that was indeed the case.

Seeing Qi Gui standing at the door, all the disciples were stunned. They didn't expect that this mysterious person, who was suspected to be related to a series of strange events, would come to them on his own initiative.

Only Xia Zixuan immediately noticed the two children under his arms, and a vague premonition arose in his heart.

He tried to shout: "Qi Gui?"

Qi Gui raised his eyebrows and did not respond to the nonsense. Instead, he raised his arms to signal them.

"Young Master Wen and Young Master Yu, will you accept it?"

Several people looked at each other, and Xia Zixuan and Li Lin took a step forward at the same time, taking the two children into their arms.

Xia Zixuan held Wen Haoran in front of Su Qiaoqiao and said, "Qiaoqiao, look and see if this is Wen Haoran?"

Su Qiaoqiao looked at him carefully and answered hesitantly, "I'm not sure. When I saw him, he was only 5 years old. Children grow up fast and change a lot. I was only 7 years old at that time. I almost forgot."

Xia Zixuan had no choice but to carry the child to the bed, then asked Qi Gui about how he found the child.

After Qi Gui finished his brief description, his vigilance was reduced a lot, and he became more certain about the child's identity.

"Friend Qi, you..."

Xia Zixuan didn't know how to continue after he started. He had too many questions, such as why did he claim to be Bai Feifei's sister? Was he related to the Wolongzhai bandits? Did he know and participate in the Wen family's affairs?

But what he wanted to ask most was who were the people pretending to be Bai Feifei and Su Qiaoqiao?

Before he could finish his thoughts, Su Qiaoqiao asked the question that concerned her most.

"Qi Gui, are you a disciple of Tianyan Sect?"

Completely different from the tense atmosphere of their previous encounters, Qi Gui at this moment gave people the impression of being gentle and elegant. Coupled with his handsome face, Su Qiaoqiao's questioning tone was forced to turn into a gentle question.

Qi Gui took out the nameplate representing his identity as a disciple of Tianyan Sect from his storage bag: "It's genuine. This is my disciple nameplate."

Every disciple of Tianyan Sect has a nameplate representing his or her identity, regardless of whether they are inner sect, outer sect or direct disciple. The only difference is the circle of patterns on it.

On the palm-sized nameplate, the disciple's name is engraved with his own blood, assisted by a special formation, and finally the disciple's spiritual power is input into the formation, and a unique nameplate is made.

Normally the nameplate is gray, but in the disciple's hand, the name part will turn bright red. When the disciple dies, the words on the nameplate will immediately disappear and the nameplate will shatter.

This kind of nameplate made of one's own blood and spiritual power would never be used by someone else. And the person who could use it by someone else must be a powerful person, and would not bother to pretend to be an ordinary disciple.

Therefore, when they saw the red words on Qi Gui's nameplate light up, everyone in Taiyi Sect believed his identity and put aside their various suspicions about him.

This was not because of the Tianyan Sect, but because of the name of Tianlu Venerable. Almost no one would doubt that there would be any problems with the disciple accepted by Tianlu Venerable. Even though Qi Gui was considered his disciple's grandson, he was nominally of the same generation as the eight peak masters.

If they really counted according to seniority, they, the disciples, would have to call Qi Gui "Uncle Master", but this was too embarrassing, so they took the initiative to ignore it.

After confirming that the other party was one of his own, Li Lin was more excited than anyone else. He strode in front of Qi Gui, wanting to grab him by the collar and interrogate him.

"Fellow Daoist Qi, why are you teasing me?"
