Chapter 157
Le Zhengzhi stopped pretending and put his hands behind his back, instantly acting like a master.
"Do you have any doubts?"
"Master, you should know something about Master's wife's life experience, right?"
Bai Zhi's life experience is a secret that cannot be told, but at this moment, Le Zhengzhi feels that he can tell it.
"Your master's wife is a descendant of the Bai family, there is no doubt about that. The Bai family is a human race and a family that once existed in the Dao League. This is also certain. Otherwise, your master's wife's life experience would not be so easy to convince people.
The thing we concealed about your master's wife's background is that her mother came from a place called Peach Blossom Valley.
There, everyone knows how to heal, there is no distinction between Taoists and non-Taoists, and they are all immortal.
The people of Taohua Valley are simple and honest. They are isolated from the outside world and unknown to the public. If it weren't for an accident, Taohua Valley would still be living a carefree life.
The accident happened to none other than Bai Zhi's father, the then young master of the Bai family.
He was injured during the mission and fell off a cliff, mistakenly entering the Peach Blossom Valley barrier, where he was rescued by Baizhi's mother. The two fell in love with each other as they spent time together, got married, and soon had Baizhi.
After all, he was the young master of the family, and Bai Zhi's father could not let go of the burden of the family. Bai Zhi's mother resolutely left Taohua Valley, regardless of the dissuasion of other people in Taohua Valley.
The Bai family treated her and her daughter very well, but people's hearts were treacherous. What's the use of just having the Bai family? Tuoba family..."
Le Zhengzhi clenched his fists and looked fierce until he pounded his fists on the stone table, then he calmed down.
"Did the Tuoba clan kill Master's wife's parents?"
"Parents? Haha, more than that. They used despicable means to eliminate the entire Bai family and threw dirty water all over the Bai family. They also used forbidden techniques to find out the location of Peach Blossom Valley.
The people of Taohua Valley are not good at fighting. How should we deal with it?
They caught whoever they could, and didn't care about the life or death of those they couldn't catch. Peach Blossom Valley was gone just like that.
Now, it is a place filled with miasma, and the living are not allowed to enter. The miasma, like the resentment of the people in Taohua Valley, has never dissipated.
The methods used by the Tuoba clan are the most despicable and shameless I have ever seen.
They used the people of Taohua Valley as bargaining chips and won over several families.
But they don't know that once they leave Peach Blossom Valley, the people there will just be ordinary people who know healing skills. They will grow old and die, and they will grow old even faster.
So, seventeen years have passed, and I heard that everything we knew is gone.
In order to use them, they had to resort to extraordinary means, and many of them had died. Those who survived had been treated inhumanely. Bai Zhi could only assume that they had all died on that day.
"Master Bai Zhi is also half a Peach Blossom Valley person. Wouldn't leaving Peach Blossom Valley have any impact on her?"
"Perhaps it is this half that does not have much impact."
"Then Master, do you know what race the people of Peach Blossom Valley belong to?"
“As everyone knows, it is said that only the gods and flower elves know how to heal. Unfortunately, even Bai Zhi doesn’t know it.
In fact, there may not be only Bai Zhi who survived in Taohua Valley. There was also a high priest and a mother-in-law named Su Mu. According to Bai Zhi's memory, these two people were not simple.
The high priestess is the most skilled healer in Taohua Valley. According to other tribesmen, she once resurrected a dead person in Taohua Valley, so it is rumored that her healing skills can bring the dead back to life.
As for that Sumu granny, she doesn't know how to heal, but she has great magical powers. According to Bai Zhi, if Sumu hadn't been away that day, Tuoba would have gone there without a chance to return."
"High Priest, Grandma Sumu?"
"What did you think of?"
"I'm just a little weird."
"Oh, tell me."
"Where do the ten great generals come from? Is it possible that the God Clan only has these ten gods? Then, could there be a place like Peach Blossom Valley in some corner, where a group of unknown tribesmen live? Why does Mu Xin know about Master's Wife?"
Yue Zhengzhi recalled Bai Zhi's doubts. She had seen Granny Sumu become younger once, and she happened to be very similar to Yun Xiu. Even when she looked at Mu Xin, she felt a sense of familiarity, just like the high priest.
Originally, Le Zhengzhi wondered if it was just a coincidence that they were similar. Because Yun Xiu looked like Granny Sumu, Bai Zhi subconsciously thought that Mu Xin was the high priest, thus creating a sense of familiarity.
When asked by Le Zheng Yuhua, Le Zhengzhi actually had the same idea, and this also explained why she knew that Bai Zhi could perform healing techniques.
No, he began to refute his own thoughts. If Mu Xin was the high priest, how could she become Mu Lao's daughter?
Moreover, Tuoba knew that Bai Zhi was a descendant of the Bai family and the people of Taohua Valley, so it was not impossible for them to conclude that she knew healing skills.
Not spreading Bai Zhi's background was a selfish idea of wanting to keep it all to himself, as he didn't want to dig up the accounts between Bai's family and Taohua Valley anymore. Besides, Bai Zhi was now in Le Zheng's service, so Tuoba family had to take Le Zheng's power into consideration.
But not spreading it doesn't mean that the news won't leak out. Relying on the Mu family's connections and influence, it is not impossible for someone to learn about it by accident.
However, the more he tried to find reasons to explain that Mu Xin and Yun Xiu were not the high priest and Su Mu, the more Le Zhengzhi felt that they were, so he asked Le Zheng Yuhua: "What do you think?"
Le Zheng Yuhua spoke slowly, saying: "According to historical records, the Ten Great Gods suddenly descended upon the earth, and with their own strength and the Nine Li Divine Artifacts, they defeated the demons and pacified the world, and were then called the God Clan.
Although we don't know where they came from, they must have a place. Does that mean that in some corner, there is a place like Peach Blossom Valley, where the tribes of the Ten Great Generals live?
Perhaps, the flower elves have not disappeared, but just don't want to associate with the world. The world is so big that not every corner is clear, and unknown races do exist. "
Le Zheng Yuhua thought of the "ghosts" in the black forest. Aren’t they a group of unknown tribes?
Perhaps the Black Forest became a forbidden area as a way for them to protect themselves from outsiders.
"What you said is very likely."
"Master knows where Peach Blossom Valley is, right?"
"You want to take a look?"
"Perhaps there are some clues we are looking for in Peach Blossom Valley."
Le Zhengzhi thought of the last time he entered Peach Blossom Valley. Now he was not sure whether he could walk safely in the miasma relying on Bai Zhi alone.
He thought of Qing Guo. With her around, he could give it a try. But then he thought of Le Zheng Zuo Si and Le Zheng Yang Yan.
If it hadn't been for the trip to Peach Blossom Valley, nothing would be like this today. He couldn't guarantee that if he went to Peach Blossom Valley again, he would see some other unimaginable truth, and he was afraid that it would change Le Zheng Yuhua's fate again.
"I only went with Bai Zhi once, so I'm not sure if I can still find her. This is a wound to your master's wife after all, so you must get her consent before you go."
"Yuhua understands."
He looked up at the window. It was Mu Xin's room.
"Have you ever thought about asking her directly?"
With the Honglian incident in mind, Le Zheng Yuhua believed that if he spoke up, Mu Xin would be willing to tell him the truth.
The more he felt this way, the more he couldn't speak. Just like Le Zhengzhi said, Peach Blossom Valley was Bai Zhi's wound, and his problems might also be Mu Xin's wound.
If she is really the legendary high priestess of Peach Blossom Valley, then he doesn't need to look for any god. Isn't it enough to just ask her for help?
However, as soon as this thought came to Le Zheng Yuhua, it was as if she saw Mu Xin's wound torn open, bleeding, unable to move her legs or open her mouth.
He could obviously do anything for Sanye, but for some reason, he really didn't want to hurt Mu Xin. Maybe it was just because of the name Mu Xin, so he found this reason.
"I can't ask."
"The Tuoba clan is still here. If it is really related to Peach Blossom Valley, the fewer people who know about it, the better." Le Zhengzhi came over, patted his shoulder and said, "Well, I finally got such a good place. Wouldn't it be a waste if I don't use it? With Miss Mu Xin's barrier, you can be more confident. Go back and rest early, and let Qi Ming and Shui Ling get ready. I will teach you magic tomorrow morning. You are already lagging behind, so don't blame me for being strict."
After saying that, he climbed over the wall.
Le Zheng Yuhua looked at the direction he left, then looked at her hands.
"Now, all I can do is to follow the direction that Le Zheng Yuhua wants to go and become a Taoist first."
