C9 He Left Quietly but Never Again

"Mother, do you think you missed any details?"

"No more. Mother has been doing these things all these years. Oh right. Mother had returned to the White Jade Villa after the incident. At that time, all the servants were there except for one person who was not there. I heard from the servants that he disappeared on the night of your grandfather's death. From then on, he disappeared without a trace. "

"Who is it?"

" It was the butler of the White Jade Villa, Shen Changjun. "

"Butler! I wonder if this butler is still in the human realm. Perhaps he should be a key figure. "

"Yes, it is possible. But he has only been in White Jade Villa for more than 20 years. He should know less than me. "

"More than 20 years? If you calculate it, it seems that he became a housekeeper not long after he went there? How could this be?

"He is a very kind and kind person. He is also very good to people. He is also very diligent. Although he has not been there for long, he is very appreciated by your grandfather. Coincidentally, the old housekeeper is also very old, so he let him be the housekeeper.

" Is that so? Then has mother investigated this person? "

"Yes. Mother went to his room and found that his things were all there. So Mother felt that it was because he saw your uncle kill someone that he was killed that night that he was silenced. But after that, Mom went to his hometown. When she talked to his family about him, his family kept quiet about it. It seemed that there were some secrets that they didn't want to talk about. "

"It seems like this matter is getting more and more complicated. If I want to solve this puzzle, then this housekeeper is an important clue. Perhaps he is the person behind the scenes. After the matter is over, he disappeared. There is another possibility, which is just like what mother said, he saw something he shouldn't have seen. So he was either killed or fled. According to the reactions of his family members, perhaps he wasn't dead. Instead, he deliberately hid himself. After so many years, I wonder if he's still alive in this world. Mother, do you know where his hometown is? "

"I know. When I was young, I heard him mention that it's in Ning Xia Pingping Valley. "

"Peace Valley Town, I'll remember it. Mother, you've been suffering all these years. It's time for you to take a good rest. I still have two Twelve Zodiac Pill that I have yet to consume. Two years later, after I consume the remaining two Twelve Zodiac Pill and completely change my constitution, I will be able to master the seventy-two ultimate techniques of Shaolin. At that time, I will investigate my father's death. "

"No, mother will go tomorrow. It just so happens that after I finish investigating you, you should be able to learn some skills. At that time, we will take revenge for your father together. "

"Mother, you don't have to go. You don't know martial arts. You must have suffered a lot over the years. Now that I know, I can't let you suffer any more. Leave everything to me. "

"Mother is fine, Mother. I came to see you this time. Now that I see you, I know that you are excellent and smart, and I am satisfied. Don't worry. No matter what, Mom has been in the martial arts world for 16 years. She's already used to it. "

"Mom, if you insist on going. . . I will go up the mountain now. Master, please allow me to renounce asceticism. When the time comes, I will go with you. "

"Silly child, you can't. Mother just praised you for being smart and now you've become muddle-headed. Child, you must practice martial arts properly and finish eating all of these Twelve Zodiac Pill. Otherwise, all of your painstaking efforts over the years will be in vain. It's good that mother knows that you have such intentions. "

" Your child is really useless. I can't protect you by your side and make you suffer. "

"Don't say that, silly child. You are the continuation of your parents. As long as you are well, we will be content. Be obedient and return to Shaolin Temple in a while. Mother will do as you said tomorrow and go to West Xia to investigate the matter of the housekeeper. "

" Since I can't stop Mother, why don't you stay here for a few more days and let me serve you for a few more days.

"Alright, Mother will stay here for a few more days. Alright. It's getting late. You should hurry back to Shaolin Temple. If you are late, they will look for you everywhere. "

"Alright, I'll go back first. I'll come and see you tomorrow. " He got up and knelt on the ground, kowtowed to Bai Shanshan, then turned around and went back to Shaolin Temple.

After he went back, Liao Yuan casually said a few perfunctory words and told them that he might need to stay there and take care of this patient during this period of time. He also got permission from the abbot. The next day, Liao Yuan went down the mountain to find his mother. When he was with his mother, he would serve tea and pour water for her every day. Bai Shanshan carefully served him and these few days, she was also very happy. After all, she had waited for this day for too long.

Beautiful times always passed so quickly. In the blink of an eye, three days had passed. These three days were Bai Shanshan's happiest days in these sixteen years. She really hoped that time would stop at this moment. She really hoped that she and her son could continue to live like this, but there were still some paths that needed to be taken. Thus, despite her reluctance, she decided to leave once again to investigate the truth. Originally, Liao Yuan thought that he could persuade Bai Shanshan to live a good life here these few days. But he did not expect that she insisted on leaving. Helpless, he could only say goodbye to her reluctantly.

"Yunxuan, Mom knows that you feel sorry for Mom, but there are some paths that we can't escape from. We can only walk forward with our chests puffed up. Don't worry about Mom.

" Mom, you have to be careful. If you feel that something is wrong, come back immediately. Don't let yourself be in danger. "

"Hehe, Mom knows. Mom has been in the martial arts world for so long. If she didn't know this, perhaps she would have been gone a long time ago. "

"Alright, mother. Take care of yourself along the way. After two years, I will come down the mountain to find mother. "

"Yes, that's right. Mom showed you a purse these few days. Take it with you as a memento. Let Mom bring it for you. " After saying that, she tied it to Liao Yuan's belt. " After tying it, he stared at Liao Yuan for a long time, but in the end, he still left with tears in his eyes.

From then on, Bai Shanshan stepped onto the path she should take. She did not know what would happen in the future. If what Liao Yuan said was true, then there must be a big conspiracy in this whole matter. What she had investigated previously was completely a mistake. Now, she had to readjust the direction of the investigation. But this time, the danger was much greater than before. She didn't know if she could wait until her son finished learning and left the mountain in two years' time. Therefore, she would always remember what happened in the past few days.

Liao Yuan watched his mother leave and slowly shed tears. He couldn't bear to let Bai Shanshan leave. He had just reunited with his mother, and these were the happiest days of his life. However, he knew that just like what his mother had said, there were some paths that they had to take. He watched his mother's figure gradually disappear before he wiped away his tears and returned to Shaolin Temple.

Night fell and everyone fell asleep. As usual, Liao Yuan came to Shaolin's forbidden area, although he had left Shaolin for the past few days. However, he did not stop here to practice martial arts. Every night, he would sneak back to Shaolin Temple. After that, he would crawl into the cave. Now, the cave had been expanded by a lot. Under the guidance of the old monk, Liao Yuan practiced even harder. After he finished practicing, he sat under the tower and rested. He couldn't help but take out the purse and hold it in his hand. At this moment, he suddenly realized that there seemed to be something in the purse.
