Chapter 1306 - A Terrifying Discovery (1/2)
“This used to be the palace, your home,” Qi Zhengming said as he guided Huo Yunshen.
Huo Yunshen felt as if someone had p.r.i.c.ked his heart when Qi Zhengming introduced the unfamiliar place as his home.
To Huo Yunshen, his home would always be the Huo family in Peijing, but that place had also become a place of sorrow for him.
Huo Yunshen had been snuck out from the palace when he was a baby. He had no feelings attached to the castle; the only thing that he had was the responsibility he had to carry.
After taking Huo Yunshen on a tour around the palace, Qi Zhengming took him to the royal tomb.
“Yunshen, we found something really terrifying,” Qi Zhenming said.
“What?”
“We discovered that both your father’s and mother’s body are gone. That’s the reason I called you over today.”
“…”
They both stopped in front of Huo Yunshen’s parents’ tombs, but the coffins were gone.
“Were you here when they were buried?”
“No, I was on my way to take you to Zstan. When I came back, the funeral was over, and most of the remaining people had left because the cooling system had started working.”
“Which means you can’t confirm whether they were buried here or not?”
“I can’t.”
“But where would their bodies be? Could it be they were buried in another place?”
No one could answer Huo Yunshen’s question. A lot of people died during the civil war, and the land was filled with dead bodies.
The people who were responsible for identifying the bodies had all pa.s.sed away and no one knew what happened after that.
“Uncle Ming, is there a possibility that they are still alive?”
