The mountain village is peaceful.
This is the first time that so many people have appeared here.
Some villagers came out to watch the excitement, and some children ran after the team, laughing and joking.
Such a scene is pleasant, so peaceful, and there is no need to worry about disaster at any time.
It is really a good place to cultivate one's moral character.
In autumn, the wheat is about to mature, and the wheat fields are endless and beautiful.
Sitting in the carriage, Ye Lu looked at the wheat fields outside the window, feeling a little curious.
The man with nine lives should have no worries living in such a place, but how did he die in the end?
Nine lives and a long life should not be nonsense, but just like her, this life will always be lost, and I don't know what he has gone through.
The carriage slowly stopped and Ye Lu came to his senses.
Shen Tuyi was looking at her over there.
Wrinkling his eyebrows, Ye Lu shrugged, "We're here, let's go."
Without saying anything, Shen Tuyi stood up and walked out of the carriage.
He was so angry that the villagers at the end of the team who were watching the excitement couldn't help but get out of the way.
Just by looking at him, you can tell that he is definitely not an ordinary person.
Mr.
Ji stood beside the carriage.
When he saw Shen Tuyi, he slightly cupped his hands and said, "Master."
Walking down, Shen Tuyi looked at the dilapidated yard and house behind Mr.
Ji.
Half of the house collapsed, which showed that no one had lived here for a long time.
Later, Ye Lu got out of the carriage, stepped down on the horse stool, and looked at the house.
"Master, Miss Ye, this is the house where the Nine Lives lived."
Although it has collapsed and the yard is full of wormwood, you can still get a glimpse of its former tranquility and tranquility.
Taking a step forward, Ye Lu looked at the yard and couldn't help but frown, "How many years has it been since he died?"
Looking at the house in front of him, he estimated that no one had lived in it for at most ten years, and it couldn't be any longer.
"Based on the years I've been asking about over the past few days, he died at least fifty years ago."
Mr.
Ji glanced at Shen Tuyi and then told Ye Lu the news.
"More than fifty years" turned his head and looked over.
Ye Lu couldn't believe it, so the man with nine lives died at a very young age.
Mr.
Ji nodded, "I found his grave.
There is no way of knowing how many years ago the person in the grave died, but according to the oldest person in the village, he had seen that grave at least fifty years ago.
"It can be seen that fifty years is only the most preliminary guess, and it may take longer.
Taking a deep breath, Ye Lu found it difficult to accept for a while.
Even if this man with nine lives died fifty years ago, it meant that he only lived for more than twenty years and then died.
"But if he died more than fifty years ago, then why does this house look like this?
If it was really fifty years ago, this place would have been razed to the ground."
Ye Lu turned his head and looked at the house.
This didn't make sense.
"So I have asked the villagers.
The young people don't know.
The older ones once said that someone lives here.
But they have never seen who lives here."

Whether it is the Nine-Life Man or the person who once lived here.
The people here are very mysterious.
"That is to say, the people who lived here were his family" It is possible.
"It's possible."
Mr.
Ji nodded.
It would be better if he could find it.
Ye Lu looked up at Shen Tuyi, she was now shocked.
Shen Tuyi had no expression on his face, looked at Ye Lu, and said, "Make sure you didn't check the wrong direction.
The person in the tomb is really the Nine Lives Man."
This was meant for Mr.
Ji.
Mr.
Ji nodded, "I asked many friends to finally check this.
The possibility of being wrong is very small."
He said this, and Shen Tuyi no longer doubted it.
Mr.
Ji has a wide range of friends, and there is really nothing wrong with finding someone.
From this, it can be concluded that the person in the tomb should be the man with nine lives.
Ye Lu frowned, and then said: "Where is the grave?"
If he has really been dead for more than fifty years, then there must be no bones left.
However, if the geographical location was better, perhaps the bones would be better preserved.
If she opened the coffin, she would be able to know exactly when he died.
"It's in this mountain."
Mr.
Ji pointed to the mountain in front of him, with lush trees and a bit of mystery when facing the sun.
"Go and have a look."
Ye Lu turned to look at Shen Tuyi.
Ye Lu wanted to take a look.
"Yeah."
Shen Tuyi nodded slightly, agreeing.
Some people followed them to the mountains, while others stayed and began to organize their accommodation.
The road in the mountain is not easy to walk, because the villagers usually do not go to the mountain.
Even if they want to collect firewood, they go to the north mountain to cut down the trees there, where the trees are easier to sort.
Going up the mountain, Ye Lu was being pulled by Mai Tang.
She was extremely strong now, so it would be no problem to pull her along here.
Shen Tuyi walked behind, glancing at Ye Lu from time to time, and then listened to Mr.
Ji's report in his ear.
"Slow down."
Holding Ye Lu, Mai Tang can walk freely and can open all the branches.
"I'm fine, don't be in a hurry, walk slowly."
The mountain has some slopes, and it is difficult for Ye Lu to walk up step by step.
She was indeed in good health, but now she found that her strength was not enough.
It can also be said that after using her strength for a while, her physical strength began to decline seriously.
Mai Tang seemed to be aware of it, but she didn't say anything.
Free novels bring you joy and joy ---> storyskyline.net
She just pulled her harder to make her relax.
It took about half an hour to reach the top of the mountain.
Ye Lu was panting and sweating on his forehead.
"It seems that I really need to exercise.
I'm really bad now."
Touching the sweat on his forehead, Ye Lu sighed, lamenting his poor physical strength.
Mai Tang looked at her without saying anything in his heart.
Ye Lu had very good physical strength before.
The current situation is inseparable from having two lives taken away.
"When you go down the mountain, you can see the tomb."
Mr.
Ji pointed to the bottom of the mountain, where the tomb is.
"Wait a minute, I'll take a break."
Leaning against the tree trunk, Ye Lu took deep breaths.
Everyone stopped and waited.
After Ye Lu had fully breathed, they started to look towards Ye Lu.
The deer panted again and then began to move down the mountain.
It was easy to go down the mountain, and Ye Lu no longer walked with difficulty.
He held Mai Tang's hand and the two of them kept rushing ahead.
Halfway up the mountain, a grave came into view among the trees.
Ye Lu immediately quickened his pace and ran over with Mai Tang almost at a trot.
The tomb did look quite old.
No one had dug the soil, so it looked squat.
Moreover, there is no tombstone, so it is impossible to know who is in the tomb or whose name it is.
"If this grave were dug up, I don't know what the bones inside would look like."
Mai Tang thought that Ye Lu knew bones, and if he could look at them, he might be able to tell some clues.
Ye Lu looked at the grave, then turned to look around, observing the surrounding environment.
After looking around for a long time, she slowly shook her head and said, "I'm afraid the bones inside have rotted into soil.
We can't store bones in this place."
"Really?"
Mai Tang also looked around.
Feng Shui here is very particular.
"I think the person who buried him deliberately chose this place.
He would only be buried here for five years before everything turned into dirt.
Even if someone opened the tomb, nothing would be found."
Ye Lu bit his lip and buried him.
The person is a master.
"I just don't know if the person who buried him is still alive.
After so many years, the person who buried him must be old and may have been buried long ago."
Mai Tang sighed lightly.
"Not necessarily.
Looking at the trees around here, someone came here specially to prune them about two or three years ago."
Shen Tuyi said calmly, and he hit the nail on the head.
Everyone focused their attention on the surrounding trees.
It was obvious that the branches growing towards the tomb had traces of being cut.

Otherwise, the branches and leaves would have covered the tomb long ago.
"It might be the person who buried him, or it might be his family.
There are always traces to follow."
Ye Lu sighed.
At this moment, he found a little hope.
"So, it's not all without gain."
Mai Tang reassured, this is already a big gain.
"However, he died young after all, and the theory of longevity is really nonsense."
Ye Lu shook his head slightly and sighed.
Shen Tuyi frowned slightly, then reached out and grabbed her wrist.
Seeing this, Mr.
Ji, Mai Tang and the other plainclothes black-armored soldiers walked aside, as if they were looking for something.
"It's too early to draw a conclusion now.
I'll go to the village to inquire later, and go to Zhicheng to check the local household registration.
I'll always find out."
Shen Tuyi certainly has a way to continue the investigation.
He also knows the Lord of Zhicheng, so he thinks If you want to find out a person in this village, even if you don't know his life, you can still find out his name.
"Perhaps, there was a pervert at that time, and maybe he took his life."
This possibility is not impossible.
There are probably many rich, powerful and short-lived people like Ying Yan in this world.
"Maybe."
Shen Tuyi nodded slightly, it was very possible.
"Alas, it seems that we Nine Lives people are still an endangered species, and are always accompanied by danger."
Ye Lu pouted, turning to face Shen Tuyi.
Looking down at her, Shen Tuyi slowly raised his hand and pinched her cheek, "You have me."
Curving his eyebrows, Ye Lu tilted his head slightly and looked at him, "When the Lord of the City says something like this, I feel particularly safe."
Shen Tuyi pursed her thin lips slightly.
Shen Tuyi liked hearing her flattery.
The sun was setting in the west, and everyone began to return.
I just came down the mountain and now I have to go up the mountain.
Yelu didn't like climbing, but he had to walk.
He took dozens of steps, sighing at every step.
Finally, Shen Tuyi couldn't listen any more, so he grabbed her hand with a little force and easily pulled her in front of him.
Then he bent down and hung her on his shoulders.
"Ah, Shen Tuyi."
He shouted, and then Ye Lu fell silent, because this saves energy, and even though he is lying head down, it is better than walking by himself.
Carrying her on his shoulders, Shen Tuyi walked towards the mountain with an expressionless expression.
Ye Lu's weight didn't seem to have any impact on him.
Everyone behind them was speechless at this situation.
Mai Tang shook his head repeatedly, and the two of them seemed to have forgotten about the dignity they had promised.
Back in the village, the residence has been almost tidied up.
Previously, Mr.
Ji and others rented a farmhouse, and now that so many people have come, the farmhouse cannot accommodate them.
Therefore, we rented two neighboring yards and built two temporary residences in the yards.
Although the time was short, it was built well.

There are no windows or doors, and it is guaranteed that there will be no leakage of rain or wind.
Mai Tang followed Mr.
Ji to various villagers' houses to inquire about information.
She believed that she would be able to find out something.
As the sun set, Ye Lu and Shen Tuyi walked to the dilapidated house, stayed for a moment, and then walked directly into the yard full of wormwood.
The wormwood was waist-deep, and since Ye Lu was short, the wormwood almost drowned her.
However, when she walked into the courtyard, she felt an unusual smell, which made her raise her eyebrows.
"No matter how well-built a house is, it will collapse quickly as long as no one lives in it.
But no matter how broken it is, as long as there are people, it can sustain it for a long time."
Therefore, Ye Lu asserted that someone once lived here.
For a long time.
"That's right."
So, there are some things that are very mysterious and related to popularity.
"Besides, I have discovered something."
She looked up at Shen Tuyi, her eyebrows curled up in a smile.
"What did you find?"
Shen Tuyi glanced at the dilapidated house and couldn't see what he would find.
"There was someone I knew well in this house.
He only had this kind of aura."
She closed her eyes and took a deep breath, feeling very confident.
Could it be that "who" is Yingyan who has found this place before?
"Old man Xu."
Ye Lu opened his eyes and said with a smile.
In Shen Tuyi's opinion, "Mr.
Xu" is a decent person.
"He has a problem with one leg and wears plaster all year round.
With the plaster on, the smell lingers.
I can still smell it now, so I guess he must have been here some time ago.
"That kind of plaster has more than just a medicinal smell.
To be more precise, it should be a feeling that only an expert can feel.
If other peers she had met appeared, she would also feel that this was something she could not do before.
Moreover, once she had a feeling, she was sure that her feeling was correct.
"Why did Mr.
Xu come here?"
Could it be that he has something to do with the people in the tomb?
"When I was at Changye Villa, I wanted to run away, but I met him.
He told me that if I hid next to Tiansha Lonely Star, I could escape.
And the facts confirmed that what he said was right.
I was instantly The time is safe.
Qingji is his apprentice.
The tattoo on my back was exactly what he said. , successfully rescued me.
Why did he do this?
I am a casual friend of him, and now, I think it has something to do with my identity as a nine-life person, so he helped me.
"Yes."
Ye Lu looked at him and said word by word.
Free novels bring you joy and joy ---> storyskyline.net
"Then, he is related to the person buried in the tomb."
Although he doesn't know the specific relationship.
"Yeah.
The location chosen for that cemetery is very special.
Ordinary Feng Shui masters wouldn't choose that kind of place.
He was buried there to let him rot as quickly as possible without even leaving his bones.
So, I think that cemetery is also a lot of places.
The old man chose it on purpose."
Ye Lu was very convinced.
What's more, she thought the people in the grave might be old man Xu's relatives.
"However, Mr.
Xu's whereabouts are a mystery, and we don't know where he is now."
To Shen Tuyi, Mr.
Xu was a mysterious person.
"I've already found this place, and I guess he almost knows about it.
If he really wants to show up, he will suddenly appear in the next two or three days.
If he doesn't want to, then he won't come even if I wait here for several years.
But. , now only he knows the secret of the Nine-Ming Man."
But Ye Lu thinks that Na Yizhu also seems to know it.
The way he looked at her was not strange at all, it was completely different from the fake one.
Even the fake Yizhu once spied on her.
It was obvious that she was a very rare person with nine lives.
"It seems that there is no need to investigate now.
Just wait for him to show up."
Shen Tu understood, but what was even more amazing was that Ye Lu was in a different state at this time.
She was different from before.
"Yes."
Nodding, Ye Lu felt that there was no need to bother anymore.
She was now convinced that it was Old Man Xu.
"What do you think is different between you now and before?"
Shen Tuyi said lightly, looking down at her.
"Well, there's no difference."
Looking at himself, Ye Lu felt that he was still the same.
"No, there is a difference.
You don't tell lies anymore."
This lie refers to her amazing deception skills.
Everything she says is clear and reasonable.
It is estimated that people who are really good at it will be fooled by her.
Hearing this, Ye Lu laughed out loud, "Are you swearing?
I was not enlightened at that time, and I only knew the basics of writing.
What else could I say if I didn't tell lies?
In fact, what you said is right, I It feels very much better now than before, although I don't know whether it's good or bad."
She opened her hand to show him, and the lines on her hand were getting lighter and lighter.
Looking at her hands, Shen Tuyi slowly frowned, "How could this happen?"
"My grandfather is like this.
Free novels bring you joy and joy ---> storyskyline.net
He can't see.
Everything depends on his hands and feelings.
But I can use my eyes, so now most of what I rely on is my eyes and feelings, and I can't use my hands.
However, it has still changed.
It's amazing that it's like this.
This is enough to prove that I have the blood of the Ye family."
Every time she clenched her hands and released them, she would feel something strange in her palms.
Grabbing her hand, Shen Tuyi looked at her with deep eyes.
"It's okay, probably everyone in the Ye family is like this."
Ye Lu comforted him, but he actually didn't know what he was doing.
After all, she was still a newbie and had a good career, but she lacked experience.
You may be able to judge others, but you don’t understand yourself at all.
Returning to the rented farmhouse, Shen Tuyi ordered that all those investigating were withdrawn and no longer had to continue the investigation.
He still believed what Ye Lu said.
However, everyone else withdrew, but Mr.
Ji and Mai Tang did not come back.
Upon inquiry, it turned out that these two people were anxious and went directly to Zhicheng.
Mr.
Ji carries Shen Tuyi's token with him.
If he goes to Zhicheng Prefecture to investigate, it will be convenient for him.
"Go ahead and go."
Shen Tuyi said nothing more, and Mr.
Ji was reliable in his work and he trusted him very much.
Ye Lu sat at the table, holding his face with one hand, and said with a smile: "Maitang admires Mr.
Ji very much and respects his mind.
She follows this time, probably because she wants to learn from him."
The person Mai Tang admires , but they all have some skills.
Such as old man Xu and Mr.
Ji.
"Mr.
Ji is originally from Jianghu.
He has friends in every city.
It can be said that he has friends from all over the world."
Speaking of Mr.
Ji, Shen Tuyi also recognized him.
Moreover, he was somewhat envious in his words, envious of his ability to make many friends.
"But now that Mr.
Ji can serve you, the City Lord, this also proves that the City Lord has extraordinary abilities.
Otherwise, how could he be retained?"
Ye Lu could hear it, and what he said was extremely beautiful.
Looking at her, Shen Tuyi pursed his thin lips, obviously feeling better because of her words.
"Well, this smells so good.
I'm hungry."
The smell of food wafted in from outside, and Ye Lu immediately sniffed.
Among these black-armored soldiers, there were people with superb cooking skills, and the cooking was particularly fragrant.
Free novels bring you joy and joy ---> storyskyline.net
"Let's eat."
Seeing her salivating look, Shen Tuyi's thin lips slightly curved, softening his entire face.
When I walked out of the room, it was completely dark.
Several torches were stuck on the fence in the yard, lighting up the entire yard.
The makeshift table was placed in the yard, and the food was already served.
Although it was inconvenient to be outside, the dishes were quite well made, and the plates on which they were served were exquisite.
An exquisite one.
Walking over, Ye Lu inadvertently looked up at the night sky, and then she stopped.
"Red clouds surround the star.
This is the Emperor's Star.
Could it be that the Emperor has come to Zhicheng?"
Looking at the northern sky, Ye Lu said with wide eyes.
"What are you talking about?"
Upon hearing the word emperor, Shen Tuyi's eyebrows wrinkled.
"Emperor Star, look, surrounded by red clouds, this represents the emperor.
Moreover, it is so close to here, so it is obviously Zhicheng.
The True Dragon Emperor is in Zhicheng now."
Ye Lu pointed, asking Shen Tuyi to take a look.
However, apart from the night sky, all Shen Tuyi saw were the complicated stars and no red clouds.
"You can't see that my eyes are really useful.
Maybe the emperor is really in Zhicheng.
Do you want to go and have a look?"
Looking at Shen Tuyi, Ye Lu whispered.
He didn't like the emperor, and the emperor didn't like him, and maybe his sudden appearance would frighten the old emperor.
After pondering for a moment, Shen Tuyi then ordered people to quickly go to Zhicheng to investigate, and it was obvious that he would not go.
"Why has this emperor come to Zhicheng for so many years?
Has he ever left the imperial capital?"
Obviously the palace in the imperial capital is more comfortable, and he ran all the way to Zhicheng for some reason.
"Maybe it's not him."
Shen Tuyi's face was expressionless and his tone was without warmth.
Blinking, Ye Lu suddenly laughed, "If this is true, then it means that a new generation of true dragon emperors has appeared.
And the old dragon should retire."
In other words, the new emperor is about to ascend the throne.
Looking at her, Shen Tuyi raised his eyebrows, "That's a good thing."
Laughing, Ye Lu handed the chopsticks to his hand, "You can think so in your heart, but you can't say it.
Besides, aren't you curious about who Xinlong is?"
She was very curious, and according to her feeling, the probability of the Five Kings Very big.
"Don't you know?"
Shen Tuyi thought she knew.
"When I entered the palace with you, I wasn't very sensitive.
Some things could only be superficial and general, and I couldn't see the deeper ones."
Therefore, it was enough to prove that she couldn't see the real dragon or phoenix at that time.
