Chapter 159 The Mystery of the Treasure
Xiao Wanyue did not disturb Lin Jingya from thinking. She was really curious about what kind of magic in this world could be used to brand others. Apart from gods and ghosts, she really couldn't think of anything else.
Xiao Zheng didn't expect his daughter to ask this question. He knew that this was all an accident. He continued to investigate until his wife found out. Only then did she tell him the whole story.
Xiao Lingqing's expression didn't show much emotion, but he was still a little curious. Even he didn't know what was going on.
Xiao Lingchen didn't know what the adults were talking about. What did the adults' affairs have to do with a child like him? He thought it was too boring and went to play by himself.
Several people came to the pavilion and sat opposite each other. Xiao Wanyue looked at Lin Jingya eagerly and said, "Mom, have you thought of anything?"
Seeing his daughter so curious and his wife lost in memories, Xiao Zheng couldn't help but say, "Yue'er, let Daddy tell you about this."
Xiao Wanyue thought: Her father also knew about this, but she was the only one who didn't know. Moreover, she felt that He Jingming also knew about it. Then she looked at her elder brother, who might not know about it either, as he looked confused.
Xiao Wanyue looked at her father and waited for him to answer her questions.
Xiao Zheng did not speak directly but looked at his wife beside him and asked, "Madam, did I say it?"
Lin Jingya had come back to her senses a long time ago, but she just didn't know how to start. Besides, she had already told her husband about this matter, and it would be the same no matter who said it.
"Go ahead." Lin Jingya said.
The people present listened attentively.
Xiao Zheng: "The story has to start from the emperor of the previous dynasty. In fact, it happened only fifty or sixty years later. The emperor at that time was incompetent, and the prince was still young and was ostracized by the princes and dukes.
The heir's position was unstable, and the country was plagued by internal and external troubles. With treacherous ministers in power, the country was naturally on the verge of collapse. The people were pitiful, with people suffering everywhere and exchanging their own children for food. The rich people at that time hid their wealth in various ways.
Your mother's grandfather was the richest man at that time. He was extremely wealthy, so rich that he could be said to be rich enough to rival a country and owned half of the wealth of the previous dynasty.
He had so much money that he could live a good life no matter where he was, but he had a patriotic heart. When he saw the ruined country and the incompetent emperor, he saw no hope, so he hid all his treasures, saying that they were money for people with lofty ideals to revive the country.
Unfortunately, those ambitious people heard the news from somewhere and used threats and bribes to coerce him. In the end, he and his family lived in seclusion in the mountains and never cared about worldly affairs again.
After his death, his children began to enter the government and business circles. Later, I met your mother, and finally, you two were born."
"It is precisely because of this connection that your mother has been the focus of attention of the remnants of the previous dynasty since she was a child. They all know that the daughters of the richest men have the ability to unlock the treasures of the underground palace. However, not everyone has this ability. Instead, the person must be a soul from another world and possess the power of another world.
And only the daughters of your grandfather's family could have such blood, your mother does not have this blood.
When you were born, a strange phenomenon appeared in the sky. The sky was full of colorful clouds and the sun was shining brightly. A few days after you were born, a Taoist priest came to our house and said: You are a good omen sent from heaven, and you have the appearance of a phoenix nirvana. This is actually a very good thing, but the Taoist priest also said that the phoenix nirvana, for its soul to return to its homeland, needs to go through a catastrophe, and only by going through a catastrophe can its destiny be changed.
Your mother and I didn't believe it either, but we'd rather believe it. So we strengthened the guards at the palace and selected many people with strong martial arts skills to protect you. Unfortunately, because of this, those people from the previous dynasty knew that you might have something special.
They wanted to capture you, but were unable to do anything due to the layers of guards in the palace. Finally, one day they had the chance. When your mother was about to give birth, they wanted to capture you and your brother to threaten us to tell them the location of the treasure and how to break it.
Fortunately, your uncle Zhou Ze and others were there at the time and prevented these people with evil ambitions from succeeding.
But when you were also abducted by a human trafficker, we knew that your disaster was coming. Your mother and I asked Zhou Ze to protect you. However, the human traffickers were too rampant, and you suffered a lot.
In fact, we have been keeping an eye on you all these years. We knew everything about you except what you looked like. But four years ago, you suddenly disappeared and we have not heard from you since then."
Xiao Zheng's expression naturally became a little depressed after he finished speaking, and everyone present had a look of heartache on their faces.
Xiao Wanyue didn't expect that her childhood was so miserable, and she became even more curious about this treasure.
"Mom, Dad, all of this is over, and our family is reunited. We have no regrets. But I'm still very curious. Does this treasure really exist? Could it be just a random fabrication?"
Lin Jingya: "What are you thinking, Yue'er? Is it true or not? I, your mother, don't know. This is true, and only the women in our Lin family know this secret. Since you want to know so much, then your mother won't hide it anymore. The treasure is on a mountain, and you know this mountain. You came back from here two years ago."
Xiao Wanyue: ………
He Jingming: ………
I never expected that this treasure was actually in Qingluan Mountain.
Xiao Wanyue: "Why is mother in Qingluan Mountain? Isn't this my adoptive father's territory?"
My godfather didn’t find out after all these years?
This was something she didn't ask, and the others were also very curious and waiting for Lin Jingya's next words.
Lin Jingya looked at the few people before saying, "In fact, we are all disciples of Tianji's disciples. Tianji is over a hundred years old and he also knows my grandfather. The two of them are rare confidants. Naturally, he supports what my grandfather wants to do. Moreover, it was Tianji's idea to hide the treasure. The key to open the door to the treasure requires the blood of the Lin family, which was also designed by Tianji. It can be said that Tianji knows everything.
Qingluan Mountain is the place that Elder Tianji asked my uncle to guard. Now I have told you all this, and the remnants of the previous dynasty have been completely eliminated. You can go and look for treasures if you want, but you must pay attention to safety.
There are countless dangers in Qingluan Mountain, especially underground, so you must be careful."
Lin Jingya also knew that her daughter might go, after all, her current identity is the queen of Da Chu.
Xiao Wanyue was shocked. Her parents knew that she was a spirit from another world, yet they were still so kind to her. She couldn't help but tear up and asked, "Dad, Mom, you both know that I'm from another world, why are you still so kind to me?"
Xiao Zheng: "Yue'er's soul from another world is originally from this world. In fact, you and your original soul are one person. Elder Tianji has already made it clear to us. And don't you feel that you don't feel disgusted with this world at all? You originally belonged to this world. You just went home."
Xiao Wanyue couldn't hold back any longer and threw herself into Lin Jingya's arms. He Jingming on the side looked at Xiao Wanyue with heartache, while Xiao Lingqing looked at a loss. He wondered if he had heard it wrong. His sister was from another world, that is, not from this world, and she was carrying a treasure. This was simply a fantasy.
After a while, Xiao Wanyue recovered and said, "Mom and Dad, I want to go see this place. I don't know why, but my heart tells me that there is something I want here. I must go. I don't want to leave any regrets. I will pay attention to my safety."
As she spoke, she took out some fruits from the space. Her action of taking things out of thin air was a little scary. It was the first time they saw Xiao Wanyue take something out.
