Chapter 111: The Collapsing Li Mochou

However, Pan Jinlian's temperament is completely different from Li Mochou's; one is romantic and dissolute, while the other is dignified and self-respecting. Li Mochou has always been cold to men, and even after falling in love with Lu Zhanyuan, she tried her best to keep a physical distance, a large part of which is probably because of her special constitution.

Li Mochou was already worried that she would be discovered by Gu Hanyuan because of her sensitivity after several physical contacts with him; at this time, being pointed out by him, she was simply ashamed and angry.

Fortunately, she was attracted by the second half of Gu Hanyuan's sentence, knowing that her master was not partial to Little Dragon Maiden and didn't pass the "Jade Maiden Heart Sutra," but out of concern for her, her mood improved a lot.

"Miss Long, if I'm not mistaken, your master shouldn't have required the 'Jade Maiden Heart Sutra' not to be passed on, right?"

After getting Little Dragon Maiden's confirmation, Gu Hanyuan continued.

"So the cultivation of the 'Jade Maiden Heart Sutra' is to maintain a clear-hearted and desireless state and practice with a lover; Miss Li does not meet the conditions, so your master specifically instructed you not to pass the 'Jade Maiden Heart Sutra' to Miss Li."

After listening, Little Dragon Maiden felt that what Gu Hanyuan said was very reasonable, especially with the Ancient Tomb's rule, "Swear not to leave the tomb for a lifetime, if there is a man who doesn't know this sect rule and is willing to die for her, then she can break the oath and go down the mountain."

Thinking of this, Little Dragon Maiden didn't know why she subconsciously looked at Gu Hanyuan.

"I once heard Yang Guo say that there is a tomb chamber in the Ancient Tomb, where the Ancient Tomb Sect people must be buried after they die. If I'm not mistaken, there should be Miss Li's coffin position in the Ancient Tomb, and your master should have told Miss Long to bury Miss Li back in the Ancient Tomb if she dies one day, right?"

Seeing Little Dragon Maiden nod, Li Mochou felt her eyes get hot and was about to shed tears.

As the saying goes, fallen leaves return to their roots; what people fear most is not having a place of their own after death. If possible, Li Mochou would absolutely not want to die in a foreign land.

"You were both brought back to the Ancient Tomb by your master since you were young, and even your names were given by your master. Mochou, Mochou, don't be worried. Miss Li, if you say your master didn't have true feelings for you, I absolutely don't believe it."

Gu Hanyuan's last words completely shattered Li Mochou's hard shell; facing the Ancient Tomb, she knelt down and collapsed in tears.

"Master! Master!"

Li Mochou had two regrets in her life; one was Lu Zhanyuan, and the other was feeling that her master was partial to her junior sister.

Today, hearing Gu Hanyuan analyze from the scattered information that her master had never ignored her.

Li Mochou, who had been raised by her master since she was a child, how could she not have feelings for her master? However, she went into a dead end and didn't even see her master for the last time before she died.

At this moment, she only felt heartbroken.

Living in the world, the most regrettable and sad thing is that the child wants to support but the parent is not waiting; at this time, Li Mochou is in such a mood.

Hong Lingbo was seeing Li Mochou show such a fragile side for the first time, remembering that she was saved by Li Mochou when she was chased by enemies, and she was accepted as a disciple.

She had always thought she was ruthless and had no feelings or weakness, and was often dissatisfied with her behavior.

And although Hong Lingbo inevitably had a ruthless hand under Li Mochou's influence, she was not bad by nature, and was even full of sympathy and love.

At this time, seeing Li Mochou crying so sadly, she couldn't help but kneel beside her and stroke her back, so that Li Mochou wouldn't cry until she was out of breath.

Little Dragon Maiden couldn't bear it and turned her head away.

Although Li Mochou often fought with her, she could see that she still had feelings for Li Mochou by calling her Senior Sister.

Even when she was young, besides Granny Sun, Li Mochou took care of her the most.

At this time, the truth between the master and the two disciples was revealed, as if they had returned to the time when the three of them lived in the Ancient Tomb.

Yang Guo saw Gu Hanyuan make Li Mochou, who was known for her cruelty, cry in just a few words.

Although he would sometimes feel unhappy because Gu Hanyuan was close to Little Dragon Maiden, he only had admiration at this time.

Gu Hanyuan didn't comfort her at this time, because this was the vent Li Mochou needed; if it was interrupted halfway, it would be even more hurtful.

"Junior Sister! Let me return to the Ancient Tomb. I won't fight for the position of Sect Master, and I don't want the 'Jade Maiden Heart Sutra' anymore; let me see Master again."

Li Mochou begged Little Dragon Maiden with a crying voice.

Some people might think that it is impossible for Li Mochou's personality to do such a thing.

But it's the same principle as "Do not persuade others to be kind without experiencing their suffering." If you haven't experienced it yourself, what qualifications do you have to comment on others?

After all, Li Mochou was also simple and kind, but she entrusted her life to the wrong person at the most beautiful age.

After Little Dragon Maiden listened to Gu Hanyuan's words, she naturally wouldn't oppose Li Mochou's request to return to the Ancient Tomb.

She hesitated before not letting Gu Hanyuan enter the Ancient Tomb, and took Li Mochou and Hong Lingbo into the Ancient Tomb.

And Yang Guo stayed outside the Ancient Tomb to chat with Gu Hanyuan.

At this time, a faint sigh came from the shadows, which even Gu Hanyuan didn't notice.

"Big Brother Gu, tell me more about the things in the Jianghu."

Yang Guo is not a dull person; after Little Dragon Maiden and the others brought the dull atmosphere into the Ancient Tomb, he started chatting with Gu Hanyuan with great interest.

"Yang Lianting, I heard you once said that Hero Guo and your father were sworn brothers. But he refused to tell you the true identity of your father, right?"

Gu Hanyuan began to fool Yang Guo into leaving the Ancient Tomb.

"Hmm, Uncle Guo has always refused to tell me who my father is."

Yang Guo's eyes were a bit low; although he respected Guo Jing very much, he had always been brooding about this matter.

"Hero Guo is a hero respected by everyone, and has been famous for nearly twenty years, guarding Xiangyang for many years; it can be said that he is the most important backbone of the Song Guo since Yue Fei."

This is naturally pure boasting; Guo Jing actually has no official position now, just assisting in guarding Xiangyang.

"So Uncle Guo is so powerful."

Yang Guo is, after all, very admiring of Guo Jing.

"So the person who was sworn brothers with Hero Guo must not be a simple character, and twenty years ago, the only person who had influence, was wary of his name, and happened to be surnamed Yang was Yang Zaixing of the Yang family generals. Because Yue Fei was framed for treason, they were beheaded by Zhao Gou together. Your age, Yang Lianting, definitely doesn't match, but you may have a deep kinship with Yang Zaixing. So Hero Guo, on one hand, to protect you, and on the other hand, to avoid being framed by treacherous officials in the imperial court, has always been unwilling to tell you the truth."

(Yang Zaixing's real history: Encountered the Jin army at Xiaoshangqiao, Yang Zaixing fought a great battle with the Jin army, killing more than two thousand Jin soldiers and the Jin general Wanhu Saba Bojin, and one hundred Qianhu. But in the end, because he was outnumbered, he died after being shot by countless arrows.) ===== CHAPTER 113 =====

"Therefore, the person who swore an oath of brotherhood with Guo Daxia certainly cannot be a simple character. And twenty years ago, the only person with influence who also had reason to be wary of his name, and who happened to have the surname Yang, was Yang Zaixing of the Yang Family Generals. Because Yue Fei was slandered for treason, he was beheaded by Zhao Gou along with him. Yang brothers, your age certainly does not match up, but it is possible that you have a deep blood relation to Yang Zaixing. That is why Guo Daxia, on one hand, to protect you, and on the other, to avoid being framed by treacherous officials in the imperial court, has always been unwilling to reveal the truth to you."

(Historical fact of Yang Zaixing: Encountering the Jin army at Xiaoshang Bridge, Yang Zaixing fought a great battle against the Jin forces, killing over two thousand Jin soldiers as well as the Jin general Wanhusaba Bojin and one hundred Qianhu officers. However, ultimately outnumbered, he died after being struck by countless arrows.)
