Chapter 24 Dilemma(2/3)
Xia Fan, who would have been wandering to the twenty-three islands south of Tianmen, often looked at the sea, and the person who often accompanied him to see the sea was Zhou Xiaoyu.
Times have changed now.
Those who accompanied him to watch the sea became another person.
But where is Zhou Xiaoyu now?
at the same time.
Linwu Villa.
Shortly after Xia Fan and Taozi left, Dong Cailing and others learned about the news.
Follow Xia Fan's instructions.
Neither of them revealed where Xia Fan was going.
Perhaps it was because Xia Fan's presence in the villa was too low that most errand disciples did not take this matter to heart.
But some people are different.
In their eyes, Xia Fan's disappearance was tantamount to a signal.
for example.
Qiu Hao and others doubted whether Xia Fan had "abandoned" Dongcailing.
If it is abandoned.
Why did he still leave Achao and a mysterious woman who came recently by Dong Cailing?
Or, he had to leave if he encountered something important?
The same news fell into the eyes of Wuhua Sect.
Does this mean that Meng Xihua's assassination was successful? Dongcailing was secretly announced to stabilize the situation in the villa?
For a moment.
Linwu Villa is surging undercurrents.
Fortunately, Dong Cailing, who got Xia Fan's explanation in advance, did not get into trouble. At least on the surface, she still handled the affairs of the villa in an orderly manner as before.
What about it in fact?
After Xia Fan left, Dong Cailing was worried every day as if she had lost her backbone.
On the one hand, she was really worried that Xia Fan would never return.
On the other hand, I was worried about Wuhua Sect’s visit.
The more you fear, the more you will be.
Half a month passed in a flash.
This day.
Dong Cailing is handling the villa affairs.
The disciples of the villa suddenly came to report urgently.
A disciple of Wuhua Sect who claimed to be Ding Ran came to pay a visit.
Ding Ran?!
Hearing this name.
Dong Cailing couldn't help but feel stiff all over.
The disciples of the villa don’t know who Ding Ran is, but Dong Cailing knows it very well.
This is the most outstanding young disciple of Wuhua Sect in the present.
The most important thing is that she once met the other party in the inn!
Later, Xia Fan's friend was uniformed and then there was no further information. Three years later, he actually came to him to the door?
It is a blessing or not a disaster, it is a disaster that cannot be avoided.
With this idea.
First time.
Dong Cailing called Achao, Meng Xihua and her to receive Ding Ran personally.
Not seen in three years.
Ding Ran's style remains the same.
Even a plain Taoist robe could not cover up his heroic and vigorous face.
"I have met the owner of Dong Zhuang!"
In front of the vermilion gate.
When Dong Cailing led the people out.
I immediately saw Ding Ran carrying a long sword outside the door, and he showed an inexplicable smile, bowed and greeted Dong Cailing.
"It turns out that he is a high disciple of Wuhua Sect. How dare you ask fellow Daoist Ding, who came to visit Linwu Villa this time, I wonder what is important?"
"Lord Dong Zhuang, I think this is not a place to speak."
Ding Ran said calmly.
"I'm rude, please do it here for fellow Daoist Ding."
Dong Cailing pretended to be calm.
Not long.
Dong Cailing led Ding Ran to a side hall where she usually works.
From entering the village to entering the hall.
From beginning to end.
Ding Ran's eyes were all hovering on Achao and Meng Xihua.
"Fellow Daoist Ding, it's okay to say anything here."
As soon as I sat down.
Dong Cailing went straight to the point, without any intention of beating around the bush with Ding Ran.
"I didn't expect that I haven't seen each other for three years, and the current owner of Dong Zhuang made me have to look at him with admiration."
Clinker Ding Ran said slowly.
"After all people change."
Dong Cailing said indifferently.
"But the owner of Dong Zhuang will have the current changes, thanks to Qingyi Tower, or more accurately, the owner of Qingyi Tower."
Ding Ran looked at Dongcai Ling meaningfully.
"Is this time Fellow Daoist Ding said this to me?"
Dong Cailing frowned and said with a delicate eyebrows.
"Of course not."
Ding Ran shook his head and said calmly.
"I don't know if the owner of Dong Zhuang knows that most of the forces controlled by Qingyi Tower have fallen into the hands of our Wuhua Sect."
"Um?"
Dong Cailing's expression changed slightly as soon as she heard this.
Because Xia Fan seemed to have never mentioned this to her.
"Didn't the husband of the East Manor tell you?"
Ding Ran keenly captured the subtle change in Dong Cailing's face.
"So what if you say it, so what if you don't say it?"
Dong Cailing's voice sank.
"Lord Dong, I dare to ask this girl is..."
Ding Ran avoided answering and deliberately turned his attention to Meng Xihua, who was standing next to Dong Cailing, who was expressionless.
"She is a distant cousin of my mother."
Dong Cailing pretended to be careless.
"Distant cousin? There are so many relatives of the host."
Ding Ran fell again on Dong Cailing and looked at her deeply.
"After all, Linwu Villa is just a small family in the cultivation world of the Asuki Dynasty, and naturally it is not as good as the Wuhua Sect, which was born into a fellow Daoist Ding."
