Chapter 476
When Gu Ling left the cave, she found that the originally clear sky was covered with overcast clouds, the wind picked up, and a thunderstorm was approaching.

This is not a good thing for those who want to leave Xingluo Island as soon as possible, but the shipbuilders on the coast are still busy at the moment, and most of them have packed their luggage and are just waiting to go on the road.

Gu Ling secretly left the forbidden area, but was not discovered by the two elders guarding the forbidden area.He came to the City Lord's Mansion last year to save people, and before that, because of the information provided by Min Rou, he was very familiar with the distribution of buildings on the island, and he quickly found the place where he made an appointment to meet Feng Ming.

This is the garden of the City Lord's Mansion. There is a lake that is as green as a jewel. It is not big, but the scenery is extremely beautiful. There is a three-storey octagonal pavilion by the lake. It was designed by Moyan himself and built by someone. The highest floor of the pavilion, It is the place with the best view on Xingluo Island, and it is quite hidden, surrounded by many tall trees.

At this moment, the people on the island are in a state of panic, the smartest ones have already run away first, and the slow-moving ones who can't grab the boat are trying to escape, and they also worry about whether Sheng Yue and the two elders in the forbidden area will suddenly take action to stop the murder, so the people on the island People outside the forbidden area are either building ships, or they are hiding and dare not come out and walk around.

Gu Ling climbed to the third floor of the Octagonal Pavilion, and the curtains on three sides were lowered by Feng Ming, only the curtain facing the forbidden area was half hung up, and the situation of the forbidden area could be seen.

Feng Ming sat on it, when he saw Gu Ling coming, he immediately got up and made a gesture, he needs to pay attention, only half of the area is safe, and the other half may be seen.

Gu Ling nodded, did not observe the situation on the island, but sat down and ate the food prepared by Feng Ming.

Feng Ming glanced at the direction of the forbidden area again, then looked away, and sat down opposite Gu Ling, "Has the lord met Sheng Yue? How is it?"

"See you, he wants to cooperate." Gu Ling said.

"My lord believes him?" Feng Ming asked.

Gu Ling shook her head, "I don't believe it. Wait until Mo Yan comes back. Be careful, don't let anyone in the forbidden area find us except Sheng Yue."

Feng Ming nodded, "Understood. If those two elders are killed, Mo Yan will know we're here as soon as he comes back." It's not a big problem if there is an accident in other places on the island and everyone is gone, and there is nothing wrong with the forbidden area.

After Gu Ling had finished eating, Feng Ming looked at the cloudy weather outside, "If it rains heavily, it will be safer for Mr. Qiu and the others to go to the island, but the boat may be discovered by then."

"It'll be fine." Gu Ling believed that Qiu Cong, who had lived at sea for many years, was very experienced.

"Where does the prince want to live at night?" Feng Ming asked.

"Where is Sheng Yue's courtyard?" Gu Ling asked.

Feng Ming got up and pointed to a certain location in the city lord's mansion, "Over there. Does the prince want to live in Sheng Yue? It's a good idea, most people would not think that Sheng Yue would not come out of the forbidden area."

It was agreed with Qiu Jing and the others that they would land on the island three days later, and there would be enough dry food and fresh water on board for them.

Not long after, Gu Ling entered Sheng Yue's courtyard.

The place is empty, there is no one, even if there are people passing by, they will make a detour, fearing that Sheng Yue will be inside and make trouble for them.

Gu Ling entered Sheng Yue's room, closed the door, and began to search everywhere in the room.

But after searching again, I didn't find anything of value.There are not many things in Sheng Yue's room, considering his status on the island, it can be called simple.

So, Gu Ling lay down on the bed and took a nap, recharging her energy.

……

When Gu Ling woke up, it was already evening.The weather that seemed to be raining in the afternoon suddenly cleared up again without wind and rain.

Today's sunset is extraordinarily gorgeous, as if covering the entire Xingluo Island with a bright red veil.

Gu Ling stood by the window looking at the sky outside, and sighed inaudibly.He didn't know whether Su Liang was at home safely or had already been captured by Mo Yan, it was possible.Today, no matter what the situation is, he can only face it and try his best to solve the trouble.

After a while, Gu Ling left Sheng Yue's courtyard and went to the octagonal pavilion in the garden.

Feng Ming is still there, but he has left in the middle.

"My lord, about half of the people on the island have left today, and there are still many people who haven't left right now. They are waiting for the ship to be built, and they may leave overnight." Feng Ming secretly searched all over the island fifteen minutes ago. Probe it again.With the current situation, coupled with the previous events, there are not many people who still choose to stay, but there are very few people except the forbidden area.Leaving Xingluo Island, the outside world is vast, and there may be a future, and there is no hope for continuing to follow Moyan.

Seeing Gu Ling looking in the direction of the forbidden area, Feng Ming sighed and said, "There was a woman who said that her two sons were taken away by Sheng Yue. The family's boat was built, and the man didn't plan to care about the two children anymore." , just wanted to leave, and I heard them say from a distance that the child is gone, and they have as many children as they want to settle down outside. But the woman refused to leave, and they were all dragged into the boat and jumped into the water again, alone When she came back, the family didn't care about her anymore, now she knelt outside the gate of the forbidden place, begging Sheng Yue to let her son go."

It was getting dark, and from Gu Ling's position, the woman crying outside the gate of the forbidden place could not be seen, nor could she hear her voice.

"Is there anyone looking for a daughter?" Gu Ling asked Feng Ming.

Feng Ming sighed again, "We have found out about that little girl's family, and they have left her behind."

At this time, in the forbidden area, Sheng Yue was eating with the two boys, and the little girl fell asleep again.

An elder came in, Sheng Yue asked what was the matter, he looked at the two children, and signaled Sheng Yue to talk alone.

Sheng Yue got up and walked out, but he didn't go out, and stopped when he reached the cave exit.

"Mr. Sheng, the father and uncle of those two boys have run away, and mother is crying outside the forbidden area." The elder said.

Sheng Yue's expression was calm, "Even if I return my son to her now, the three of them, mother and son, will not be able to leave. Leave her alone." After saying that, he turned and went back.

Seeing Sheng Yue coming back, one of the twins asked again, "Master, can we go home and sleep tonight, and come back tomorrow?"

Sheng Yue shook his head, "No."

The eyes of the two little boys dimmed instantly, and they silently held each other's hands, not daring to speak any more.After eating, they obediently went to sleep behind the stone screen, where bedding was spread.

The dumb slave came in and took away the dishes, and brought hot water.

There was no Sheng Yue's bed in the cave, so he sat cross-legged by the pool with his eyes closed and rested, facing the outside, and he could touch the little girl lying on the small bed by raising his hand.

When Feng Ming and Gu Ling stayed in the Bajiao Pavilion until they were close to the house, they went to the seaside to have a look secretly. Compared with the daytime, there were much fewer people. There were still people lighting up the lamps and building boats, and some people were waiting to leave with their luggage on their backs.

Based on the current situation, it is estimated that after tomorrow, there will be no people on the island except the forbidden area.

When returning to the City Lord's Mansion, Feng Ming asked Gu Ling if he wanted to take care of the woman who was crying outside the gate of the forbidden area, "It's cold at night, if this continues, she won't be able to bear it physically."

"You know him?" Gu Ling asked back.

Feng Ming nodded, "Her name is Ah Wu, and it seems that her surname is Peng. I've seen her take her two sons to pick mushrooms. I met her and greeted her, so I know her."

"What did you say her name was?" Gu Ling asked again.

After Feng Ming answered again, he saw that Gu Ling was thinking.

"Does the lord know her identity?" Feng Ming asked.Most of the girls on the island were captured, and some were born on the island, such as Min Rou, but there are only a few of them.Peng Wu was brought back from outside the island to be his grandson-in-law by an elder, but that elder had died last year in the then capital of Qian Kingdom.

"Not sure, maybe it is." Gu Ling said.He once heard that Peng Wei, a veteran of the original Liang country who had a good relationship with Su Liang, had an eldest granddaughter, who was also Peng Fan's sister, but she drowned in an accident, and the body was unrecognizable when found.That was a rumor about seven years ago, and Gu Ling hadn't paid attention to the name of the Miss Peng who died unexpectedly.But the woman named Peng Wu on Xingluo Island has twin sons who are five or six years old, and they may be Peng Wei's dead granddaughter.

Gu Ling thought again of the twin boys she saw in the cave during the day, and she didn't pay attention at that time, but now that she learned the name Peng Wu, Gu Ling felt that the eyebrows and eyes of the two children looked a bit like Peng Fan.

Originally, Gu Ling didn't plan to act hastily, she was afraid of scaring the snake and being discovered by people outside Sheng Yue in the forbidden area. She thought that the woman would always go back and would not die. A boy was brought out.

But since that woman might be Peng Wei's granddaughter, Gu Ling asked Feng Ming to go there.It's not because Peng Wei's granddaughter is more important than other women on the island, it's just that if this girl is born in the general family, has a strong temper and can communicate, she won't cause trouble for them.

As for the people who have left on Xingluo Island, Gu Ling will ask them to settle the matter afterwards, and the people who should be saved will also be saved.

In the middle of the night, the city lord's mansion of Xingluo Island was very quiet, with almost no light.

The door of the forbidden area was locked tightly, and no lanterns were hung. Feng Ming approached cautiously, and heard a hoarse cry.

Feng Ming waited for a while, but saw no movement in the forbidden area, so he quickly stepped forward, picked up Peng Wu who was sitting on the ground, covered her mouth, and dragged her into the shadows.

"It's me, Feng Ming." Feng Ming said in a low voice.

Peng Wu's eyes widened in disbelief. They knew each other before, and Feng Ming returned before and became the captain of the Coast Guard, and was imprisoned in a dungeon. He is considered a "celebrity" on the island.

Seeing Feng Ming's face, Peng Wu immediately calmed down.

Feng Ming dragged her to run away from the forbidden area, all the way into the garden, and finally stopped at the Bajiao Pavilion.

"You're back again, is there someone with you?" Peng Wu grabbed Feng Ming's arm and asked eagerly, "Is that genius doctor Su also here?"

Feng Ming shook his head, "No. I have something to ask you, please answer truthfully. Before you came to the island, did you have a family? Where is your home?"

Peng Wu had a beautiful appearance, but was very thin and haggard, with red and swollen eyes.When she heard Feng Ming's question, she pursed her lips and hesitated for a moment.Because after coming to the island, except for the real name, she never mentioned her life experience to anyone, and very few people knew her last name, Feng Ming paid special attention to inquire about it.She knew that no one could help her escape, men on this island were wolves and tigers, and women were only men's property.She tried to escape at first, but was caught and beaten badly, and later she had a child and couldn't leave.

But thinking that Feng Ming was identified as a traitor from Xingluo Island, Peng Wu still answered his question, "My home is in Yao City, Liang Country."

Feng Ming then asked, "Is your grandfather old general Peng Wei?"

Peng Wu's eyes widened, "How do you know?"

"I'll take you to meet someone." Feng Ming said as he climbed up the ladder in the middle of the pavilion.

Peng Wu hurriedly followed, because he was exhausted and almost fell, but he still climbed up.

Gu Ling was on it, but Peng Wu didn't know him, he was just shocked by his beauty.

"My name is Gu Ling. My wife and your grandfather are close friends." Gu Ling cut to the chase.He had heard the conversation between Feng Ming and Peng Wu just now, and Peng Wu's appearance was quite similar to Peng Fan's aunt that Gu Ling had seen.

Peng Wu was stunned.She fantasizes day and night to be able to leave this devil's lair, but all she gets is day after day of disappointment, because when the accident happened that year, she watched with her own eyes that the person who captured her faked her death.Her clothes, everything that identified her, were taken away and put on someone else.These years, Peng Wu's heart aches when he thinks that her family thinks she is dead and won't look for her at all.But sometimes she felt that her family really thought it was a good thing for her to die, and it was even more torture for them not to see her dead.

"Your brother's name is Peng Fan, and your father's name is Peng Qian." Gu Ling said.

"Yes! My father..." Peng Wu burst into tears instantly.Her father was always in poor health in her memory, and she didn't know if Peng Qian was still alive.

"Your grandfather, your parents, and your younger brother are all still alive." Gu Ling looked calm, "Your father's illness was cured by my wife."

Shocked by the huge surprise, Peng Wu relaxed for a moment, couldn't stand up, almost fell to the ground, but was pulled by Feng Ming, who helped her to sit down.

"Thank you... Thank you all... Please, save my sons! They are only six years old!" Peng Wu wanted to kneel down to Gu Ling again.

Gu Ling glanced at the direction of the forbidden area, "I saw your two sons today, they are fine, but they are controlled by Sheng Yue, I can't bring them out for the time being."

"Did you see them? Are they really okay?" Peng Wu cried with joy.

"I will try my best to take you away from Xingluo Island and send you home. Before that, you need to take care of yourself and don't do unnecessary things." Gu Ling looked at Peng Wu and said.

Peng Wu nodded again and again, "I understand, I can't save the child, I can only rely on you, I won't cause trouble! Don't worry!"

"Send her back to where she lives." Gu Ling ordered Feng Ming.

Peng Wu insisted on kowtowing to Gu Ling before being led away by Feng Ming.

Feng Ming sent Peng Wu back to her residence on the island, which was an independent house outside the city lord's mansion. Everyone else ran away, and she was the only one left.

"That's the rumored Gu Meiren, right? I heard about him when I was a child." Peng Wu felt a little relieved, "Both he and Miracle Doctor Su are great benefactors of our family."

Feng Ming asked Peng Wu to eat something before going to bed, and then he would stay here. During the day, he could "wander" around the forbidden area before returning to avoid arousing suspicion.

"I understand what you mean, I will be careful. You should also be more careful!" Peng Wu looked grateful.

……

Except that Gu Ling went to see Sheng Yue on the first day on the island, the two of them didn't meet each other for two consecutive days. Sheng Yue always guarded the forbidden area, and Gu Ling wandered around the island, seeing that there were fewer and fewer people.

On the third day, there were really only people in the forbidden area left on the island, Peng Wu who refused to leave because of his son, and Gu Ling and his party in the dark.

Qiu Jing and the others went to the island at the planned time, and hid the boat in a cave under the cliff that Feng Ming told them.Not many people know about this place, and most of them have already left.Feng Ming received them and brought them to see Gu Ling.

Knowing that Gu Ling found Peng Wei's granddaughter who died many years ago on the island, and that Peng Wei still has two great grandchildren in Sheng Yue's hands, Qiu Jing couldn't help sighing, "It's a good thing, but it's best not to let Mo Yan and Sheng Yue fall in love. The more we know that their mother and son have something to do with us. Up to now, we only have to wait for Mo Yan to come back."
