I turned to look at him, and then looked at the man on the bed: "Is this yours-father?"

"Yes."

“…”

Although I had realized this fact from the first sight, it seemed a bit difficult to accept. I really felt that Chabixing was like a monkey jumping out of a stone, not afraid of the sky or the earth, nor any bondage. Unexpectedly, he had a father here.

His father...

I took another step forward carefully and looked at the pale face under the faint candlelight. Judging from Chabixing's age, his father should be in his fifties and sixties. He seemed to be older under the candlelight because he had many wrinkles, but he was tall and had a little hooked nose, which looked very beautiful, and his eye sockets were very deep, unlike others. Although he had his eyes closed, I could also imagine that if he opened his eyes, he would be a very handsome old man.

I looked at him for a while before I looked up at Chabixing: "So you have-"

Before he finished speaking, he felt that it was inappropriate and did not continue. Instead, Chabixing curled his lips and smiled, and said softly: "Does the eldest lady think I was bursting out of the crack of the stone? I shouldn't have parents?"

He told me the truth, so I can't continue.

Pei Yuanhao stood aside, probably because of his identity. He was not willing to get close to such an injury, but at this time he also asked: "How did your father get injured?"

Chabixing's face suddenly sank, and he said, "He was held hostage by those people and was injured."

"Those people? Who?"

“…”

Chabixing didn't say anything, but looked at me, and I immediately felt sorry for it: "My fifth uncle?"

He nodded and said, "There are some other people who are probably sent from the capital."

Pei Yuanxiu...

It turns out that he didn't give up so easily.

I looked up at Chabixing and asked, "You said Nan Zhenyi asked you to come here to find the person who was responsible for building the library, then-"

He nodded: "Yes, the person who was responsible for building the library was his father."

My breathing became heavier again.

Chabixing's father was actually the one who was responsible for building the library. Of course, this was nothing. Everything was standing there, so naturally it was only after someone had built it. But what we always wondered about was the huge mechanism in the library.

Chabixing's father must have known this.

But he is unconscious now.

I looked down at the pale face. Like Mo Tieyi, who was seriously injured in Tiejia Village outside, I was all the people who knew the truth I wanted to know the most, but when I arrived, I was already unconscious. It seemed that God had to set too many obstacles on my way forward to prevent me from reaching so smoothly.

I was silent for a while, and then said to Chabixing: "What the hell is going on? How much do you know, tell me all."

Chabixing nodded calmly, and then said, "Miss, Master, let's go out first. He needs to rest and don't know when he will wake up."

The last sentence made me feel a little heavier. I looked back and then followed him to lift the curtain.

The aroma of medicine that spreads in the room outside is much lighter. Chabixing still poured us two glasses of water and gave it to us, then sat down and said calmly: "My father crossed the sea to the Central Plains a long time ago. He mentioned that he should have followed some merchants and entered Shu with them after arriving on the shore, and then he never left here again."

I looked up at him: "His home—, he didn't want to go back?"

"No."

"Why?"

"Because he met his mother here, and later gave birth to me, settled down and started a career, he would not leave."

“…”

I couldn't help but look at Chabixing. Although his appearance was a bit strange than that of the Central Plains, compared with his father, there were still some shadows of the Central Plains people's appearance. I asked, "Your mother--"

"It's the people here."

Judging from his appearance, I didn't want to mention it too much, so I couldn't ask in depth. After all, what I care more about is the library.

I asked, "When did you know about the library that your father was responsible for creating this?"

"Actually, it was only when I heard from the master brother this time that I realized."

"Oh? You don't even know?"

"I don't know," he shook his head, his slightly raised eyebrows first showed a bit of joking loneliness, and said, "My father likes everything about Nishichuan and prefers to do what he likes to do in this place. After he sent me to the academy, he has been here. I have grown up and only come back to see him once a year. He told me that there were very few things in the past. If the master brother hadn't known that the library might be in danger of collapse and asked me to come and find the person who was responsible for building the library, I probably wouldn't have known now. It turned out that the library was built by my father."

I thought for a moment and said, "What's the matter, you said, he likes to do what he likes to do in this place?"

“Wrought iron.”

“…”

After hearing these two words, I already understood in my heart that Chabixing’s father should be the “old thing” in the mouths of those people, that is, Tie Yushan’s master.

I still wanted to continue asking questions in my heart, but when I looked at Pei Yuanhao beside me, I felt a little hesitant.

I haven't forgotten what he wanted to do when he came here.

So I said, "Then what happened to those people coerce Lingzun?"

Chabixing said: "The people found this place for some reason, found their father, and wanted to coerce him to hand over the secret of wrought iron. They also took the opportunity to capture Tieyushan."

"Tieyushan was also captured by them?"

"good."

I was shocked. No wonder he was not here when I went to Tiejia Money House before. It seems that those people should have followed Tieyushan here and found Chabixing's father. This pair of masters and apprentices are masters who can forge green mines. Moreover, after hearing Chabixing's origin of his father, perhaps, he also knew some secrets about the Flang machine cannons. If they fell into the hands of those people, they naturally had no good results.

Chabixing also gritted his teeth at this time and said, "They used their father's life to threaten Tieyushan, and also used their life to threaten their father."

My heart was twitching: "What about later?"

"I'm here, but because the other party has a lot of people, I can only save my father."

"Where is Tieyu Mountain?"

"I originally wanted to find a way to save him, so I sent my father here first, but not long after, Senior Brother Liu came."

He said, looking up at me: "Miss, Senior Brother Liu seems to be very worried."

“…”

As soon as I heard Qinghan appear, my heart beats, but my throat is inexplicably quarrel and I can't speak. Pei Yuanhao next to me said at this time: "He is because there are some big things yet. You continue to say, what happened after he comes?"

Chabixing looked at me, then said, "Senior Brother Liu seemed to know what happened here and came. He met those people as soon as he came. However, the other party seemed to have prepared for it. He was about to kill people to silence the victim at the beginning, so when we wanted to leave, they used gunpowder to collapse half of the mountain, and the rocks collapsed, blocking the road."

“…”

"In a panic, we were blocked inside, and Senior Brother Liu and the others rushed out."

This was just a word, but when I listened, thinking about the situation at that time, I couldn't help but feel frightened. Half of the mountain collapsed, and when we were digging the road, we almost had an accident several times and someone was injured. What's more, how dangerous it was at that time was unimaginable. Even Chabixing was trapped in it, Qinghan - he actually went out!

Thinking of this, I couldn't help but feel a little angry again.

What to do with such a fight? Is it really necessary to fight to the death before it is over?

After saying these words, Chabixing looked up at me again and said, "Since the eldest lady and the emperor have come in, then Senior Brother Liu and the others - it should be nothing serious, right?"

I couldn't help but gritted my teeth before saying, "I haven't seen him either."

"What?" He was a little surprised: "Why?"

"When I came, he had left."

"Leaving? Where have you gone?"

"I don't know either...if I knew, that would be great."

"Then, where are Tie Yushan and the others?"

"It's gone, and only a seriously injured Mo Tieyi was lying outside. She didn't wake up. She wanted to ask him nothing. So we stepped up the time to dig through the road and rushed in." As I said that, I looked around again, and then said, "Why aren't you rushing out?"

Chabixing said: "My father was seriously injured, so I have to take care of him first. Moreover, the situation outside is unclear, so you can't act rashly."

I nodded.

Chabixing thought for a while and said, "By the way, Miss, actually, at that time, just as we got rid of those people, Tie Yushan seemed to have discussed something with Senior Brother Liu."

I hurriedly looked up at him: "What?"

He said: "Because my father was injured and unconscious, I kept taking care of him, so I didn't pay much attention to the things around me. But I also saw that Tieyushan seemed to have told Senior Brother Liu something privately, so when the mountain collapsed, they rushed out and left this place."

“…”

What else did Tie Yushan and Qinghan discuss in private?

What exactly is it?

Could this be the reason why Qinghan asked me to reply to the ring?

My brows couldn't help but frown, because at this time, I recalled the scenes when I went to the Tiejia Money House, and I seemed to feel something.

Tieyu Mountain...light cold...

That ring...

Could it be said-?!
