Chapter 1432: Smoke Rises (Part 253)

ng, and something like disfigurement should never happen again."Feng Ling Xi's words made Feng Yu Xi cry even harder."Your Highness, how can I bear to see my mother in this state."There's always a way...Siyu's light kung fu has improved again.

The old man stroked his beard, smiling as he watched the two people chasing each other, his eyes full of approval.

At this age to have such light kung fu skills, he is indeed a martial arts prodigy.

Tao Su looked at Feng Lingxi and bowed to her, "Little Wind, our village is just nearby. If you don't mind, why not come to the village for a meal before leaving"

"Well, I actually have a few things I'd like to ask you."

Feng Lingxi retracted her gaze. Truly, comparing people is a killer of one's spirit. If she had such light skills, she would laugh herself to death even in her dreams.

Si Yu Si Qi, have gone to visit.

Feng Siyu and Feng Siqi heard their grandfather's call, and they ran back in a hurry, both sweating profusely.

"Grandpa, shall we go to the bandits' lair"

Don't talk nonsense.

Feng Lingxi chided, "This is so rude."

Tao Su watched Feng Siqi stick out her tongue, that mischievous look made him smile, "It's alright, what was said is true anyway, let's go."

"Si Yu Si Qi, gone."

The old man led his siblings first, the Scarred Man leading the way. This was supposed to be a robbery, but now he was acting familiar, like a close relative. Feng Lingxi and Tao Su walked behind, watching them and feeling a strange sensation they couldn't quite explain.

"Xiao Feng, do you and your master live with the children"

“Well, we were planning to go down the mountain, and as it turns out, we ran into you.”

Feng Lingxi said lightly, "It's fate, I suppose." They hadn't seen each other yesterday after they went back, yet today they happened to meet like this.

“They normally don't go out; it’s just that there are many people in this village, and they need food. So they thought about trying their luck to make some money.” Tao Su’s tone was very light, looking ahead, “I brought them here over a year ago, and we have been living by the food grown in the mountains. We dare not go around randomly for fear of being caught by the government. We can only live quietly inside."

"You're so trusting."

Feng Lingxi glanced at Tao Su, "I said I would help you, and you believed me."

Tao Su smiled, his gaze falling on Feng Ling Xi's body. "You are a woman with stories, and you have a kind of ability that makes people easily believe you. I don't know why, but when you say you will help us, I believe it."

"Then, thank you." Feng Lingxi looked ahead. "I just love to meddle, so..."

If she had been able to be like other women back then, would Duke City not have ended up this way

But if she had a choice, she would still choose to be herself. She wouldn't want to change for men and become so weak and helpless.

"Have you heard of Lu's family"

Feng Lingxi changed the subject, looking at Tao Su's suspicious eyes and said faintly, "The Lu family from Xigu Kingdom."

Of course, everyone in Xi Guoku knows about the Lu family. As for the current empress's natal family, who wouldn't know But even with such a prominent family, we never see any of them.

"You can't see him Why I heard that the Lu family are charitable, and both Mr. and Mrs. Lu are very good people."

"That's precisely the problem. Because of that, it's even harder for us common folk to see them. Besides, they love to travel everywhere. The three young masters of the Lu family have never stayed in Xigu Country for more than a month. The head of the Lu family is afraid of his wife, and when Madam Lu goes out, who dares to get close"

Tao Su's words left Feng Lingxi puzzled. When Madam Lu told her initially, it didn't seem this difficult.

"Alright, I'll try to figure something out and ask the Lu family for help."

Tao Su's footsteps came to a halt, and he looked at Feng Lingxi in astonishment. His eyes were uncertain. "Xiao Feng, is everything you said true"

"Can you be fooled by this" Feng Lingxi took a deep breath, "As long as you haven't lied to me, I will help you and the refugees in the village get justice."

Tao Su hurriedly raised his hand and swore to the heavens, "I, Tao Su, swear to heaven that I have not deceived Xiao Feng in any way."

"Let's go."

Tao Su brought Feng Lingxi to follow their steps. Feng Lingxi was thinking, what kind of way should she use to contact the people from the Lu family Besides the jade pendant given to her by Mrs. Lu, she had nothing else on her body that could connect with the Lu family.

After much deliberation, Feng Lingxi decided to have Tao Su deliver a letter to the Lu family. Whether or not someone from the Lu family would come depended entirely on them.

The village of Tao Su is located in a ravine not far from the mountain. It's not very big, with only a dozen or so households. They built their own houses, which offer shelter from wind and rain. For them, that's already incredibly precious.

Feng Lingxi's arrival brought a surge of excitement to the village. Everyone gathered, curious about the beautiful woman the chieftain had brought back, along with her twin children. Feng Siyu and Feng Siqi, being young, quickly made friends with the other children in the village and joined their play.

“Have someone deliver this to the Lu residence and ask them to pass it to either Master or Mistress Lu. They will come looking for me.”

Feng Lingxi wrote a letter to Tao Su, in which she mentioned that Yao Wan Ying's daughter requested an audience.

Although Tao Su was curious why she wasn't willing to reveal her name, she thought that since the other person was willing to help them, it wasn't appropriate to ask too much. Anyway, when the other person was ready, they would naturally tell them.

Chang Ming, you deliver this letter to the Lu residence. I'll go down the mountain and return as quickly as possible. We should be back in three days.

The man named Changming was about the same age as Tao Su, with a tall and sturdy build. He was a martial arts practitioner and often went down the mountain. He was also familiar with the terrain of the capital city.

"If the Lu family wants to see you, should I bring them"

Wind Ling shook her head, "If they want to see me, you come back. I'll go with Tao Su at that time. They coming here would easily expose our location and attract unwanted attention."

Chang Ming bowed his hands to the wind, "Understood."

"Xiaofeng, are you on good terms with the Lu family"

This single line, if it could attract the attention of the Lu family and make them want to see her, it would suggest that Xiao Feng's identity is not simple. After all, the status of the Lu family in Xi Gu Guo is undeniable. If she could truly meet the head of the family, then the people here might be saved.

"We had a brief encounter, and I met the eldest son of the Lu family."

"Xiaofeng, is Lujia's eldest son the father of Siyu and Siqi"

When Tao Su asked this, Feng Lingxi was choked with coughs. Tao Su hurriedly apologized, "I'm sorry, I just asked casually and didn't mean anything by it."

"Her husband abandoned them."

"Master."

Feng Lingxi saw her master and spoke, her expression slightly embarrassed. In ancient times, being abandoned by one's husband meant becoming a discarded wife, which would cause people to look at her differently.

Tao Su was slightly surprised, but she quickly regained her composure and soothed, "Well, your ex-husband must be truly unlucky. Xiaofeng is such a good person, he didn't appreciate her, but in the future, she will definitely find someone who cherishes her."

Feng Lingxi hummed softly, her expression dimmed considerably. Tao Su noticed this and changed the subject, looking at the old man, "Senior, you are Xiaofeng's master, may I ask how to address you"

"They all call me Yuánxiū."

"Yuanxiu"

Tao Su jumped to his feet in astonishment, excitedly asking, "May I ask if senior is the renowned Yuanxiu Divine Physician"avor.If you think "Wind Ling Xi Du Gu Cheng" is good, please copy and paste the following URL to share with your QQ, WeChat or Weibo friends, thank you for your support!(This book's website: www.rzlib...
