Capítulo 1791: Chapter 1791: Jia Ren Has Been Found
But those people are all dead, and this person is likely the sa. Even knowing the outco, they still couldn’t help but ask.
An old man in charge at the villa squinted his eyes in recollection and said, “After Teacher Chen arrived, he even taught my grandson to read. Our whole family was quite pleased, and we were even discussing wedding my youngest daughter to him. But unexpectedly, he stayed for less than two months before leaving, saying soone invited him elsewhere to teach.”
Wasn’t he mysteriously killed?
The three were astonished, having searched through so many villas, they finally heard so good news.
“Where did he go to teach?” Jin Luoyin asked urgently.
The old man shook his head and said, “I don’t know, Teacher Chen left very hurriedly and suddenly, before dawn.”
The three exchanged a glance, arriving at a conclusion.
It must be that Teacher Chen discovered sothing, so he fled overnight.
Yet, there’s also a possibility that he was deceived to leave, and then t with foul play.
In any case, if Teacher Chen was clever enough, there could be a possibility that he’s alive.
The three agreed to go back first, focusing on investigating Teacher Chen’s whereabouts.
Jian Shiqing instructed the butler, “You go investigate where he’s originally from and the reason he ca to Tianhai Mountain Villa!”
“Yes, Young Master Jian!”
…
In a treehouse deep in the mountains that resembled a bird’s nest, stood an elderly man whose face could not be clearly seen.
Jin Xuyao stood under the tree, staring at the old man above, and said in a low voice, “So you’ve run up to the tree. Don’t tell all these years when you were gone, you lived in a tree.”
The old man glanced at the forest and pointed to his treehouse saying, “How could I? Have you ever seen a bird’s nest used for years? I’m a migratory bird, planning to migrate south after a few days.”
Having imagined countless tis what kind of person this quirky master was, Jin Xuyao never expected to see him in this form.
He was silent for a mont and said, “You usually migrate like a bird continuously through the mountains and forests?”
“What else?” the old man smiled back with a question, then raised his arm and added, “Look at my clothing, doesn’t it look like wings?”
Jin Xuyao’s mouth twitched, “You’re nad Jia Ren, why not simply na yourself Birdman?”
“Oh, my dad’s surna is Jia, not Bird!”
“…”
The old man jumped down from the tree, nimble and agile.
Standing in front of Jin Xuyao, he looked him up and down, then suddenly asked with a smile, “I didn’t expect anyone in the world could find . How did you find ?”
Jin Xuyao pointed to the opposite cliff where there was a cluster of fiery red flowers, and he said, “The things over there are about to ripen, and this spot is ideal for observation! Aside from you, no dicine gatherer would live in the deep forest for a single herb. I rember you said before, to get a single herb, you could set up a tent next to that herb and live for a year.”
Jia Ren paused for a mont, then burst into laughter.
He said, “Since you’ve found , does it an your senior brother is already dead?”
Jin Xuyao’s face turned somber, his voice carrying so hoarseness, “You knew? You’ve known all along?”
Jia Ren did not deny, softly nodding.
“Yes, I know.”
Looking at Jin Xuyao, he used his dirty sleeve to wipe the moss-covered stone beside him, sat down, and spoke in a low voice, “Fu Jian was my eldest disciple. He initially found because an accident had ruined his face. He heard that advanced disguise techniques could make the fake seem real, so he sought out, hoping for a way to restore his appearance.
