However, she later sent people to look for him, but there was no news. So, it is very likely that he was eaten by wild beasts at that time. There is also a very small possibility that he was rescued by some traveling strong men, otherwise, there would be no way that there would be no news.
However, she also knew that the possibility of this happening was only one in ten thousand, extremely small, but at this moment, she could only make up a lie to tell them.
“Rescued by an old Taoist?” Su Xi looked at Feng Jiu in amazement: “Then, what happened next?”
Feng Jiu looked up at her and said, "We arrived just in time, but the old Taoist said that the two children had a connection with him and wanted to take them as his disciples. I didn't agree at first, but the old Taoist said that if he hadn't rescued them, the two children would have died, so he had to take them away. He only said that when the two children had learned something, he would let them return home."
At this moment, Fengjiu felt that she couldn't find a single flaw in the lie she had made up. If she didn't know what was going on, she might have believed it!
At that moment, she would never have thought that the white lie she had woven for them was actually very close to the truth. Even when she saw the two children again in the future, she still found it unbelievable...
"So that's how it is..." Su Xi murmured in response, revealing a relieved smile: "As long as they are okay, as long as they are still alive..."
My mood had been going through great ups and downs, and I had been anxious these days. Now that I relaxed, I fainted.
"Su Xi, Su Xi!" Feng Sanyuan called out worriedly.
"Grandpa, don't worry. Grandma's body just can't bear the fatigue. Let her have a good rest and she will recover." Feng Jiu said softly, calling out: "Leng Shuang, take Grandpa and Grandma to rest."
"Yes." Leng Shuang responded and came in to help support Su Xi.
Feng Sanyuan looked at Feng Jiu, sighed softly, and said, "Grandpa will ask you something later."
Hearing this, Feng Jiu's eyes flickered slightly and she nodded: "Okay."
After they left, Fengjiu sat down and couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief. The joy and excitement of seeing her grandfather and the others return safely were diluted when she thought of Xiao Fengye and Yangyang. She felt a little uncomfortable and helpless.
"It was you who saved my grandfather and the others?" Fengjiu looked at Murong Yixuan and asked.
Hearing this, Murong Yixuan, who was drinking tea, smiled slightly and looked up at her: "How do you know?" Just now, Grandpa Feng and the others had not had the time to tell her, and judging from their looks, they should not have received the news he sent some time ago.
"The palace that was on fire was the one you had been to before. Now you are here again, and my grandfather and his friends have returned safely. If it wasn't you who saved them, could it be someone else?"
"It was just a coincidence." Murong Yixuan looked at her in a dazzling red dress and said, "At that time, I just wanted to go back and take a look, but I didn't expect to run into this. However, my ability is limited, so I can only save them secretly."
Fengjiu stood up and walked in front of him: "No matter what, I have to thank you for saving them." She bowed to him and said: "Thank you very much. If you need my help in the future, I will not refuse as long as I can do it."
