Chapter 768: Jade Lock

und, as if making up his mind... 。His body trembled slightly, a manifestation of the turmoil and apprehension he felt about what was to come, yet he forced himself to remain composed. 。He stared inte..."Xiao Fan, can you do me a favor" Ye Benkong suddenly seemed much older.

"What can I do for you, Grandpa You tell me," Ye Fan said.

Ye Benkong took out a jade shackle from his bosom and gave it to Ye Fan, saying: “This is the half jade shackle that Xiaohua gave me back then. The other half is in Ye Wudao’s hands. When she left that year, she told us that if anyone could find her first and give her the half jade shackle in their hand, she would return to that person’s side…”

Ye Fan was stunned as he took the half jade lock. It felt incredibly smooth to the touch, apparently having been caressed countless times. Ye Fan couldn't tell what material it was made of. As he held it in his hand, a chill spread through his body, seeming to contain an endless amount of coldness. Ye Fan knew this was definitely something priceless.

And on this half of the jade lock, there was carved a single character '空' . It seemed that the old man's half should have been carved with a '道' as well, right Otherwise, how would they tell who belonged to whom

The only thing that Ye Fan couldn't understand was why Ye Benkong gave it to him If the old man also had half a piece, then he should have helped the old man give it to Miao Xiaohua.

Ye Benkong seemed to see through Ye Fan's confusion and smiled, "After that year, Ye Wudao swore he wouldn't leave Lishan Mountain, and I wouldn't leave the Ye family half a step. If Xiaohua didn't come to find us, I'm afraid neither of us would have seen her again. Therefore, I had no choice but to entrust this matter to you. As for who you will give Xiaohua that piece of lock to, that's your business..."

Ye Fan also felt a mixture of emotions at once. Obviously, Ye Benkong trusted him very much and entrusted such a thing to the grandson of his enemy. How could he let down his heartfelt intentions

Grandfather, although I am your grandson, you doing this behind my grandmother's back is a bit disrespectful. So...

Ye Fan received the jade lock solemnly and said to Ye Benkong, "Don't worry, I will definitely find Miao Xiaohua and give her this jade lock!"

Ye Ben nodded slightly, turned his head gently, and closed his eyes.

Is he asleep Ye Fan suddenly had this strange thought. He had seen some people who could sleep even while standing, could it be that Ye Benkong was cultivating such a profound martial art

Ye Fan really didn't want to disturb him, but he had no choice but to speak: "Grandpa Kong... that is, where is Miao Xiaohua now"

"Hong Kong Province…" The voice was faint and ethereal.

"Hong Province Ye Fan was full of doubt. Yanjing and Hong Province were ten thousand eight hundred miles apart. Could it be that Miao Xiaohua ran there thousands of miles away to hide from them all those years ago"

Ye Fan still wanted to ask, but Ye Benkong was motionless, not even breathing.

Ye Fan was startled. Wouldn't this old geezer just die like that

I rushed to his side and felt for a pulse on his wrist. Luckily, there was still breath coming from his nose, it seems he must be in some kind of meditative state like they say in legends. Grandpa Kong is truly an extraordinary person! I wonder what kind of martial arts he practices

Ye Fan quietly exited, gently closing the door behind him. He knew that at this moment, Ye Benkong needed peace and quiet.

The two gray-robed figures were practicing martial arts in the courtyard. They were practicing standing meditation, and Ye Fan watched them with some surprise. These people... how did they seem so out of sync with this era

Those two Taoist priests only nodded to Ye Fan and didn't respond to him. They just focused on practicing their own martial arts.

Oh, these people seem to be thickheaded. How can there still be such out-of-touch individuals in the world

Look here, there is no television, no internet, and no entertainment. How do they survive on a daily basis

Is everything so boring

Ye Fan also learned from ancient people, clasped his hands together, bowed to them, and then strode out of the courtyard.

Stepping out of this legendary ninth courtyard, Ye Fan let out a deep breath and suddenly felt something was off about the surrounding sky. Had he been inside for a long time

Took out my phone to look, dizzy, it was already 5 o'clock!

Thinking about it, I haven't even had lunch yet, but why don't I feel hungry

Could it be that the time within this courtyard is not on the same level as the time outside

He remembered he should have only been in there for an hour or two, how could it now be afternoon Where did those missing hours go

Could it be a time-space tunnel inside Ye Fan couldn't help but chuckle at his own absurd thought.

Huh Why is there no signal on my phone here

Ye Fan looked at his phone strangely. There was no signal inside. He thought gloomily, these people were too strange. They lived in seclusion and had no electricity, but they didn't even have internet. Did they never use cell phones

Unable to figure it out, Ye Fan quickly ran out of the Ye family. At this time, his phone kept ringing non-stop. Ye Fan knew it was the sound of text messages.

Upon taking it out, good heavens, there were dozens of missed calls.

All of these calls are from Murong Xue. This girl, what's she so eager to find me for

Thinking about sleeping with this girl for a night, Ye Fan's mouth curved into a smile. He then dialed Murong Xue's phone, "Disciple, do you miss your master"

Over there, Murong Xue coquettishly said: "I want you to die, where are you Come pick me up."

Since that night, Murong Xue's mind was constantly filled with Ye Fan's shadow. She didn't know why, even though her relationship with Ye Fan wasn't that good, every time she came into contact with him, she would unconsciously reveal an ambiguous expression, just like now, Murong Xue didn't feel that there was anything wrong with her words.

Ye Fan said strangely, "Take you Take you where" Ye Fan thought to himself, "You wouldn't want me to take you to open a room, would you If that's the case, then go ahead..."

Murong suddenly became very angry and said: "Ye Fan, what day is it today"

Ye Fan was even more puzzled, "Today seems to be the first day of the term... and today is World No Smoking Day... By the way, today is also the third birthday of the old man's dog..." Ye Fan shouted excitedly.

On the other end of the phone, Murong Xue couldn't take it anymore. She yelled into the phone, "Enough!"

Everyone in the office stared at her in astonishment. Why was Dr. Murong, who was usually so mild-mannered, so furious today Who could have made her so angry

Feeling the strange gazes around them, Murong Xue also felt a blush creep onto her face. She lowered her voice and said, "My dad is back today and he wants to see you..."

Ye Fan finally realized. That day when he had dinner at Murong Xue's house, Zhu Mei had asked him to have dinner there the next day. As a result, he had forgotten about it. Now that Murong Xue mentioned it, he remembered. Besides, he did have something to do with finding the old dean.

"Wait for me, I'll be there soon." After Ye Fan finished speaking, he hung up the phone.

After thinking for a moment, she dialed another number. "A-cheng Can I borrow your car I'm not far from the Ye family, and I need it urgently."rgarment with her hand, pulling it into a thread. She then rubbed it back and forth in the seam. 。 Ye Fan grabbed Wu Xia's underwear and rubbed it, especially touching the most sensitive part. Wu Xia...
