Chapter 257 Your Ancestor
"Dongxi Village, I probably won't be going back tonight. Tell your uncle when you get back." After Jiang Yunxi said that, he untied the rope that tied the horse and pulled the horse out.
"Dongxi Village is quite far away. Have you been there? How about I go with you? It would be great if you have a companion. I'll send someone back to inform the emperor's uncle." Zhan Luochen felt that it was a bit dangerous for her to go alone.
Jiang Yunxi looked at him with a smile, "You still know Dongxi Village."
Zhan Luochen said proudly, "Of course. I know all the villages near the capital. This inn I opened is to serve those people. Although the fees are not high, they are happy to eat and stay here."
"At that time, I was wondering which business genius opened this inn, but I didn't expect it was you." Jiang Yunxi was also surprised that it was him.
"Hahaha, do you think I'm smart?"
"A little, but not much."
The smile on Zhan Luochen's face disappeared. "Wait for me, I'll make arrangements and go to Dongxi Village with you later. Otherwise, the emperor's uncle will definitely blame me when I return."
Jiang Yunxi: “…”
Zhan Luochen made arrangements quickly and chose a horse.
"If you really want to go with me, Dongxi Village is quite far away and might be dangerous." Jiang Yunxi reminded him that it didn't matter to her whether he went or not.
What kind of danger could there be in a village? If there is any danger, she can handle it.
"Even if I didn't have you, you would protect me anyway." Zhan Luochen looked fearless.
Jiang Yunxi looked up at the sky speechlessly, "Then why are you going with me?"
Zhan Luochen said confidently: "I'll accompany you."
Jiang Yunxi: “…”
Thank you so much!
The two men led the horses out from the backyard of the inn.
"Wait here for me. Someone followed me before. I'll go see who it is." After saying that, Jiang Yunxi threw the reins to Zhan Luochen and quickly walked to the door of the inn.
In the lobby of the inn, a woman in red was sticking her head out to look around.
Jiang Yunxi walked towards her, "Are you looking for me?"
Qian Heng turned around quickly and was startled when she saw Jiang Yunxi behind her, "Why are you here?"
"Why are you following me?" Jiang Yunxi looked at her with a smile. In fact, when she was setting up a fortune-telling stall on the street, she found that someone was hiding in the dark and observing her. Later, she found that someone was following her and He.
She guessed it was her.
"Who said I followed you? I was just passing by." Qian Heng denied it.
"Then you stay here, I'm leaving." Jiang Yunxi said and turned away.
Qianheng opened her mouth and quickly followed, "Where are you going?"
Jiang Yunxi said without even turning her head: "It has nothing to do with you."
"Do you know why I followed you? You must know where the big devil's body parts are, and I want to know." Qian Heng caught up with her and said in a low voice. She had thought about it all night last night.
Her death, the death of her people.
All this was caused by the big devil.
"I won't tell you where that place is until you have the ability to dismember the big devil." Jiang Yunxi didn't expect that she came here to secretly stare at her because of this.
It can be seen that she really hates the big devil.
"You really know where it is!" Qian Heng breathed a sigh of relief. She wanted to get an answer from Meng Po. She would definitely ask her to exchange it for the Heavenly Dao Pearl, but she would not make this deal.
That's why she chose to come to Jiang Yunxi.
"I do know, but I won't tell you now." Jiang Yunxi said lightly. She herself hasn't figured it out yet. When she has the chance, she will go to the secret room again to explore.
"I will find a way to dismember the big devil." Qian Heng said firmly. She must find a way to completely destroy the big devil and avenge her people.
"I'll tell you when you find a solution. You can go back now." Jiang Yunxi walked quickly towards Zhan Luochen.
"Where are you going?" Qianheng still followed her.
Jiang Yunxi walked towards his bay horse and mounted it with a swift movement. "I'm going to check the feng shui of a commoner's house."
Qianheng's eyes lit up, "I'll go too."
Jiang Yunxi looked down at her with a condescending smile, "It's up to you, but there's no horse."
Qian Heng flew up and sat on the horse next to her, saying proudly, "Isn't this already there?"
"Who are you?" Before Zhan Luochen had the chance to ask Jiang Yunxi who the woman in red was, she ignored him and got on his horse. What happened today? Everyone wanted his horse.
"Your ancestor." Qian Heng raised her eyebrows and looked at him.
"What's wrong with you? Not only did you steal the horse, but you also cursed me." Zhan Luochen was furious. He had never seen such a shameless woman. She was only about twenty years old, but she wanted to be his ancestor.
Jiang Yunxi's mouth twitched slightly. The other party had lived for thousands of years and was buried in this land. Perhaps there really were descendants of her on this continent. "Zhan Xiaoliu, go ride another horse."
"Who is she?" Zhan Luochen looked crazy.
"Maybe he really is your ancestor." Jiang Yunxi teased.
Zhan Luochen was stunned at first, then he loudly retorted, "My ancestor died a long time ago. Could it be that she is a ghost? That's not right. How can I see ghosts in broad daylight? I can't see ghosts at night either."
Jiang Yunxi whipped his horsewhip and walked away.
Qianheng followed, pulling the reins.
Zhan Luochen glared and quickly ran back to the stable to pick a new horse to catch up.
On the official road.
The three horses galloped quickly, stopping and looking at the map along the way before they found Dongxi Village. It was very remote, with a winding mountain road. In the valley, there was a large natural cave at the entrance of the village.
After entering the cave, there is a wide stream. The place is really as its name suggests, Dongxi Village.
Qian Heng looked around as she walked. This was her first time out of the capital. Whether it was the roads or the mountains, everything was unfamiliar. She felt an indescribable discomfort in her heart.
What exactly happened thousands of years ago?
Everything has changed. What if her tribesmen sacrificed their lives in exchange for her waking up? Can she find their faith?
Thousands of years have passed, and I don't know if she is still alive.
"Look, it's just ahead." Zhan Luochen pointed to the scattered houses in the distance. He didn't expect that there was a village in such a remote place. It was really too troublesome to go out.
Jiang Yunxi rode her horse quickly forward, and when she arrived at the first household, she got off the horse.
Zhan Luochen and Qianheng dismounted.
"Uncle, we want to ask you where He Yun's home is?" Jiang Yunxi stepped forward to ask when he saw someone coming out of the yard.
The middle-aged man looked at her, then at Qianheng, and smiled, "Go straight along this road. When you reach the fork in the road, turn right. Continue to the end and you will see a relatively new house. That's it."
"Thank you." Jiang Yunxi said.
"You're welcome. Are you all going to the Yuan family? This Yuan family is really weird. Three men died in less than half a year." The middle-aged man shook his head and said regretfully.
"We are going to the Yuan family to check the feng shui. Let's go." Jiang Yunxi said and left with the horse.
When Qianheng left, she glanced coldly at the middle-aged man. His eyes made her very uncomfortable.
