1869 Telling half the truth can also cost someone’s life

News came from Jiangnan, Xiao Yi spoke!

It wasn't torture or using connections, but using a woman to make Xiao Yi speak without his knowledge.

Here, we have to mention Fu Lin's ability. Although Fu Lin did not dig out Nanling Jinfan's past, he gained Nanling Jinfan's initial trust in a short period of time.

Fu Lin learned a lot of useful information from Nanling Jinfan, including Su Rou, who had been locked up by Nanling Jinfan.

Su Rou's entire body was burned. She looked like neither a human nor a ghost. She had almost lost her value. The only thing that could be used was her eyes, the eyes that could captivate the mind.

As soon as Fu Lin found out about Su Rou, he felt that this woman should be used well and would definitely be of great use. Fu Lin sent her to Jiangnan, hoping that the doctors at Jiangnan Medical College would treat Su Rou.

Even if Su Rou cannot be restored to health, at least he must look better. Otherwise, if Su Rou appears in front of others with his whole body rotten, it will only scare people to death, but it will not have the effect of charming their minds.

After the Valley Master took over Su Rou, he treated her wholeheartedly for a period of time. Su Rou's burned and rotten muscles could not be restored, but she was not as ugly as before. After Su Rou recovered and was able to use her eyes to charm her mind, the Valley Master used them on Xiao Yi as soon as possible.

Su Rou had experienced great ups and downs, and her mind was more mature than before. She was more skilled in the soul-stealing technique than before. In addition, the Valley Master had used medicine on Xiao Yi, so Xiao Yi's mind was a little unclear, and Su Rou easily asked about his condition, and he was still unaware of it afterwards.

"Hmph... Because of your stupid thing, I am going to lock my junior brother up at the bottom of the valley for life. I won't be happy unless I get something out of you." The reason why the Valley Master worked so hard was entirely out of personal grudge.

The Ninth Prince's prediction was correct. The Valley Master learned about the feud between his junior brother and Qinjian Villa, and gave Xiao Yi two choices. One was that his junior brother would pay with his life, and Xiao Yi would kill the Valley Master's junior brother. The other was to lock the Valley Master's junior brother at the bottom of the valley, and let him plant, collect and make medicine every day, and use what he learned to atone for his sins.

After careful consideration, Xiao Yi chose the second option, and he volunteered to be the supervisor to oversee the daily work of the Valley Master's junior fellow apprentice.

In fact, Xiao Yi had no hope in life now. His family, career, and relatives were all gone, and his revenge was taken. He had no purpose in the rest of his life, and he didn't know why he was alive. He had no choice but to stay and supervise the Valley Master's junior brother, watching him suffer every day.

Xiao Yi asked to stay, which naturally gave the Valley Master an opportunity. With the help of Su Rou, the Valley Master got the information from Xiao Yi about the matter concerning the Emperor's Sword, which he had almost forgotten.

Emperor's Sword! The secret sword of the Lan family in the previous dynasty. Few people in the world know about this sword. Xiao Yi doesn't know what the Emperor's Sword looks like or what it does. As for where it is now, Xiao Yi doesn't know either. Xiao Yi's father died before he could tell Xiao Yi about the Emperor's Sword, and the Emperor's Sword became a secret forever.

Xiao Yi only knew that the Wanjian Forest in Qinjian Villa was originally built to protect the Emperor's Sword. However, when Qinjian Villa was burned down by fire, the Wanjian Forest also disappeared, and no one knew the whereabouts of the Emperor's Sword.

In addition, Su Rou also found out from Xiao Yi that the reason why he disappeared all these years was not because he hid, but fell into an isolated cliff.

That place was very strange, as if a mountain suddenly cracked open, leaving only a crack in the middle. Only one person could pass through the crack, and inside the crack was where Xiao Yi had stayed for all these years.

There were countless broken iron and swords in that place. Xiao Yi once suspected that it was the Wanjian Forest that disappeared from Qinjian Villa. However, Xiao Yi had no intention of rebuilding Qinjian Villa in this lifetime, so he kept that place in his heart forever and had no intention of letting it see the light of day again.

"It's no surprise that Lan Jingyang and that mysterious aunt are looking for the Emperor's Sword. And the place where Xiao Yi has been hiding all these years is in the Wanjian Forest. So the Emperor's Sword is most likely in the Wanjian Forest." Feng Qingchen said.

The Ninth Prince nodded slightly and asked, "What do they want to do with the Emperor's Sword? What's its use?" This was what the Ninth Prince was concerned about. He knew a lot about the previous dynasty, but he had never heard of the Emperor's Sword.

"No matter what the Emperor's Sword is used for, we just need to know that this sword must not fall into Lan Jingyang's hands. We don't know much about the affairs of the previous dynasty. Since Lan Jingyang has been secretly looking for the Emperor's Sword, it means that this sword is extraordinary. Didn't you say that there were doubts about the incident at Qinjian Villa back then? Maybe at that time Lan Jingyang's aunt went to Qinjian Villa to look for the Emperor's Sword, but just didn't find it." The usefulness of the Emperor's Sword can probably only be known after getting it.

"Lan Jingyang, he won't live for many days. The Emperor's Sword is useless in his hand." The news from Liancheng said that the medicine Feng Qingchen used on Lan Jingyang had begun to take effect, and the doctor in Liancheng would soon discover it.

"If Lan Jingyang is not there, there will be someone else. The battle of Chucheng has been won with the Black Cavalry. We have already discussed the battle plan, so why not leave the rest to Doudou and let Doudou fight independently." Feng Qingchen is very interested in the Sword of the Emperor. This interest is like a puzzle. If they get the Sword of the Emperor, they can further uncover the veil of the gods of the previous dynasty.

The emperors of the four countries were too ruthless back then. No one or anything related to the royal family of the previous dynasty and the Fengli clan escaped their clutches. History books and royal biographies were completely destroyed, as if they wanted to erase all traces of the existence of the previous dynasty. In less than a hundred years, people almost forgot about the previous dynasty.

Chu Cheng, the Ninth Prince naturally didn't take it seriously. He was also very interested in the Emperor's Sword, or in other words, everything closely related to the royal family of the previous dynasty was of interest to the Ninth Prince, but he thought about it more than Feng Qingchen.

"Qingchen, do you still remember the map of Kyushu?" The treasures of the previous dynasty can be found with just a few maps. This doesn't seem like something the royal family would do.

Feng Qingchen seemed to suddenly think of something, and his eyes lit up: "You mean, this Emperor Sword is related to the treasure of the previous dynasty?"

"Not necessarily. I just doubt whether it is possible to obtain the treasure of the previous dynasty with just the map of Kyushu." It is about whether it can be obtained, not whether it can be found.

Just like the Lu family's treasure, it can be found with a map, but that doesn't mean anyone can get it. Even the Lu family knows that maps are easy to be obtained by outsiders, so how could the Lan family not know that?

"If the treasure can be obtained with just the map, then as long as someone finds the map, no matter if they are from the Lan family or not, they can obtain the treasure. This is definitely not what the person who hid the treasure wanted to see." Feng Qingchen's eyes flashed with solemnity, and he looked up at the Ninth Uncle and asked, "When you first got the news of the Jiuzhou map, did you have anything else?"

Feng Qingchen didn't know from whom the Ninth Prince got this information, but he was certain that the other party told the Ninth Prince this information, perhaps hoping to use him or harm him.

Although the other party did not lie to the Ninth Prince, but only telling half the truth would still cost someone's life...
