"You, you actually know about the Space-Time Mirror, the Space Stone, and the Love Flower. What exactly are you after?"
Seeing his terrified face, and looking at her as if she were a snake or scorpion, Xiushui frowned.
"I have a hunch that the person controlling you has been looking for these things. What's more, he seems to be plotting something?"
Xu Hanshan also knew that his emotions were fluctuating too much. After a moment's thought, he apologized.
"I'm sorry, it's just that hearing these names makes me uncomfortable. In fact, if our families hadn't come into contact with these things back then, I'm afraid we wouldn't have ended up like this.
As you speculated, the person who controls us has indeed been inquiring about the whereabouts of these things.
Back then, these things were kept in rotation among our several families."
Finally, the origins of these things were known, and these ancient families seemed to know something about it. Xiushui became very interested in this insider.
She was not in a hurry to find Shi Qingshan and the other man who were controlled by the drug, but slowed down and asked in detail.
According to Xu Hanshan, by chance, the six families accidentally saved a pair of injured beautiful couple.
It just so happened that among these families there were people who were knowledgeable in medicine and people who sold medicinal herbs.
There were also people who were proficient in the art of medicine and some wealthy people. They came together and by coincidence, they saved the lives of the two men.
However, after all, he was seriously injured. Even if he was rescued, he was still seriously injured and his life span would be shortened.
The couple were also grateful people. Seeing that they were a group of people going out to do business and make money, they took out some very valuable things and asked them to sell them outside.
"It's said that what they brought out was truly astonishing. A simple flying bird could both protect and attack people. Furthermore, it was the kind that even one or two top-tier experts couldn't stop.
What’s even more amazing is that once the bird recognizes its owner with a drop of blood, it will call out to its master, “No. XX is at your service.”
Xiushui was stunned. It sounded like this couple had traveled from modern times.
No, that's not right. People who traveled from modern times cannot own such a powerful robot nanny bird.
"If each family owned just two of those nanny birds, they would earn enough money for the whole family to spend for a lifetime.
And these major families also used this money to quickly become the new generation of noble families. In other words, they are the founders of the major families.
"How could such a magical couple give the Space-Time Mirror, the Space Stone, and the Love Flower to your families for safekeeping?"
“We don’t know exactly what happened afterwards.
But there are also many rumors.
Some say that the couple was not only injured, but also lost their own child, whom they had never had the chance to see. They have been searching for their child and trying to avoid being hunted by their enemies.
In the end, the two people seemed to be instructed by an expert, who said that using these three things would allow them to see their child. However, the child would have to go through some strange twists and turns.
Xiushui: Could it be that I am that child?
Could it be that my parents are aliens!
This thought came to her mind almost instantly, but it was also at this moment that she suddenly remembered that she had only had her grandmother since she was a child.
As for parents?
Grandma initially said that her parents died in a car accident when she was very young.
Every time she mentioned them, her grandmother would look at her with a sad face. Gradually, she became sensible and stopped asking questions.
Now that I think about it, there actually didn't seem to be much sadness in Grandma's eyes... Rather than sadness...
Rather, it was grandma's intentional display of hurt in front of her in order to prevent her from asking any more questions!
This little old lady has deceived herself again.
Thinking of this, Xiushui felt depressed.
She thought she understood the old lady, but who knew she was still hiding something.
When Yingying comes back, he must go back and ask the old lady about his own life experience.
"Anyway, there are many legends about the couple who saved our ancestors. Some say they were from a higher world, while others say their enemies were more powerful than they were.
Some even said that their enemies were hiding and searching for something, while others said that they were not actually dead but were waiting for something or someone to appear.
There are even rumors that they are rich enough to rival a nation, and if they want to become king, it will be a matter of seconds. But no one knows the details.”
Xiushui listened numbly. She was anxious and wanted to know her true life experience.
When they arrived at the underground pleasure palace, Yan Li, who was left behind, ran out with a pale face.
"Sister, it's bad. Of the Shi family father and son you asked us to lock up, only one grandson is still unconscious. The other old man disappeared without a trace after waking up.
We searched the entire basement, but we couldn't find the old man."
This was the first time Sister Xiu confessed what she had done, but who knew she would fail like this.
She was so upset that she couldn't face Sister Xiushui.
Xiushui was also stunned for a moment.
"The old man is missing. The drug I gave them would keep them unconscious until at least tomorrow morning, and yet he's already woken up?"
She was still very confident in the medicine she prepared. You know, it was thanks to these medicines that she was able to advance to the next level.
"I also heard you say that this medicine will last a long time, so I didn't send too many people to control it."
She was careless. This also gave her a warning. She should not be complacent in the future. Otherwise, mistakes would only take a moment.
Seeing her like this, Xiushui tried to comfort her.
"Sister Yanli, you've helped me a lot. I think the old man must have had some kind of fortuitous encounter, and his body has developed resistance to the drug. Otherwise, he wouldn't have woken up so quickly. You can't predict a case like this."
When he entered the place where Guan Wenchanglin was staying, he found that person still sound asleep. This showed that his medicine was really effective.
As for Xu Qingshan?
I can only speculate that maybe they really are resistant to the medication. After all, some people are not resistant to anesthesia, and some even have allergic reactions.
This old man was actually able to escape underground among so many people. I guess there must be other exits in this secret palace.
This piece of information was also confirmed by Xu Hanshan.
"It's a good thing the old man escaped. At least, he hates me even more now and wants to kill me even more. Hatred is the motivation to keep following me."
Xiushui wasn't too anxious to catch Xu Qingshan. More importantly, her main purpose for this trip was to fish.
Xu Qingshan should be able to help her catch more fish. There are also several major families that are related to those things and her own life experience.
Um, when does Hawk Eagle come back?
Just as I was thinking about it, I heard a gurgling sound at the entrance of the secret passage.
