Chapter 413: Asha's Altar of Corruption
"By the way, Third Young Master, Hu Tiefu said, he still has a very precious gift for you. "Li Wuxin took two steps, patted his head, looked back at Lu Yuan, and said hesitantly, "Third young master, look?"
"No need. Lu Yuan waved his hand, as if he didn't want to say more.
"Yes!"
Li Wuxin saw that Lu Yuan's face was not good, and he was also panicked, and he didn't dare to say a word more, so he got in the car and left.
Lu Yuan knew very well in his heart, this Hu Tiefu is a big family in Jincheng, please yourself, it is nothing more than wanting to make friends with the Lu family, although Lu Yuan does not despise this kind of behavior, but firstly, he is not the kind of person who likes to eat, drink and have fun to make friends for the sake of profit, and secondly, now he has a messy mind, and he is not in that mood.
"Young master, although Leon is dead, it is not like he is at a dead end. Seeing Lu Yuan like this, Zhang Jiu also frowned tightly, and obviously he was also cautious when he said this.
It seems that it was said to the point where it had to be said.
"Then how can I find Cai Wei?" Lu Yuan said with a wry smile, he didn't know anything about Cai Wei, the world was so big, how easy was it to find someone he didn't know at all?
"No, young master, it's not to find Cai Wei, but to ......" Speaking of this, Zhang Jiu couldn't help but feel a little more emotion in his tone, "Alas, young master, it seems that fate is pushing you into the devil's path step by step." β
"What do you mean?"
"Young master, in fact, there is another way for you to find Penglai Immortal Island, that is, we go to the Valley Continent, and you return to the Demon Clan. Zhang Jiu said.
"Return to the demons?"
"The base camp of the demon clan is in the land of Yaxia on the continent of the valley, where the sun can't shine, there are hundreds of millions of years of black water swamps, dark forests, and black flame mountains, the center of the land of Yaxia, legend has it that there is a fallen altar, if you can resist the devouring of the altar, you can degenerate into the purest demon spirit in the world, with the power of the demon spirit, you can break through the obstacles between the immortals, not to mention Penglai Immortal Island, even if it is the purple cloud hall, the ethereal heavenly pool, and even the place where the legendary top gods live in the Seven Star Lingtai Mountain, you can come and go freelyγ β
"Could it be that the immortals in the legends and stories are all real?" Lu Yuan was stunned, but after seeing the Lingmiao Immortal Mother, Lu Yuan also had to believe that there were really immortals in the world.
"Whether it's true or not, no one knows. Zhang Jiu said, "And the reason why you wanted to join the demon clan back then was actually to control the demon clan to stay in the shadow land of Yaxia, and on the other hand, it was also because you wanted to find the Fallen God Altar, degenerate into a demon spirit, and find the legendary fairy world, because that was the only way to find the fairy world in the mortal world." β
"Ah......" Lu Yuan was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help but show a little shame, "If that's the case, then didn't I deceive the thirteen Gu Jue who voluntarily committed suicide in order to let me join the demon clan, after all, they committed suicide back then in order to keep the demon clan in the land of Yaxia from coming out of the scourge." β
"No, Young Master, you didn't deceive them, in fact, looking for the Fallen Altar is also the will of the thirteen Gu Jue, this is a plan that the fourteen of you have unanimously discussed!" Zhang Jiu said.
"You mean, back then, let me find the Fallen God Altar, and then degenerate into a demon spirit, and then go to find the fairy world, which is also the idea of the Thirteen Ancient Uniques?"
"That's right. β
"Why?" Lu Yuan didn't understand, why did the Thirteen Gu Jue do this?
"Young master, have you ever experienced some such thoughts, for example, your life always seems to be manipulated by others, and the world always seems to be constrained by some principles, which makes you feel that no matter how hard you try, it seems that you will always fail to reach your ideals, as if no matter how fast human beings make things, they will never be faster than the speed of light, no matter what, this world always feels like there is a limit. Zhang Jiu said.
"This?" Isn't this the way I and Zhou Yun know each other? It's always divided and combined, and every reunion will be split by unexpected things, as if there is an invisible force controlling all this, and there will never be an end.
"Young Master, at that time, you and the Thirteen Gu Jue also felt this, you are both the most powerful people in the world, and your cultivation has reached its peak, so you have seen places in this world that ordinary people can't see, and it has also made you touch the ceiling of this world, making you more eager to understand this world, and want to see if there are stronger realms and more authoritative laws in this world. And to investigate this, we must use the altar of degeneration, and only by degenerating into a demon spirit can we have the power to find the answer. β
"Because this is a top-secret plan, you and the Thirteen Ancient Absolute have never mentioned it to anyone, and you also know that even if you mention it to anyone, no one will believe it, after all, the Fallen Altar is located in the center of the Demon Race, if you want to go to the Fallen Altar, you must join the Demon Race, as long as you join the Demon Race, you will definitely suffer from everyone's hatred, so when you go to the Demon Race with the head of the Thirteen Ancient Uniques, everyone thinks that you have defected to the Demon Clan, but no one knows how much pressure and secrets you were under at that time. β
"But, did I succeed?" Lu Yuan said in a daze, in fact, when he said this, he already had the answer in his heart.
Yes, if you succeed, can this be the result?
"Young Master, you didn't completely succeed, but you did reach the altar of degeneration, and you also started degeneration, but, just like when you ascended to the heavens, you didn't completely degenerate, you only partially degenerated, because there is a trace of pure and extreme goodness in your body, so you can't be completely degenerated, and naturally you can't become a demon spirit. Zhang Jiu continued, "But you have already degenerated a part, so your strength has also been greatly improved, and it is enough for you to step into the border of the immortal realm, so you can reach Penglai Immortal Island." β
"I see. Lu Yuan muttered, "Do I really want to find the land of Yaxia in the Valley Continent and degenerate into a demon spirit?"
So, what kind of life will it be?
"Young master, let's eat first, this matter needs to be considered in the long run. Zhang Jiu pointed to a restaurant next to him and said.
The business of this restaurant is very hot, there are several long queues at the door, and some people are holding mobile phones to take photos with the store, just like an Internet celebrity store on the Internet.
Lu Yuan nodded, and Zhang Jiu was just about to go in.
"Oh, I'm sorry everyone, we have something to do today, and now it's closing, I'm really sorry everyone, for the inconvenience caused to everyone, please forgive us, I'm already eating, we won't charge the meal, I'm sorry everyone. β
The owner and lady of the restaurant walked out, looking apologetic.
"Uncle Zhao, Aunt Xiuhua?"
As soon as Lu Yuan saw the two of them, his eyes showed a look of surprise that was difficult to see.
Seeing that Zhao Jisheng and Aunt Xiuhua's life is much better than before, Lu Yuan is also very relieved, and he also heard from Tianci that Tianci gave Aunt Xiuhua a set of faΓ§ade rooms, it seems that this restaurant is it.
"Xiao Lu, you are really Xiao Lu! Xiao Lu, you are fine, great, great!" Aunt Xiuhua took Lu Yuan's hand, her eyes filled with tears.
"Xiao Yun, didn't I come with you?"
Lu Yuan was stunned.
Then he smiled, "No, Zhou Yun is on the island and didn't come with us." β
"It's great, it's wonderful. Xiao Yun, this child, has suffered for the first half of her life, and now she is really blessed to meet Xiao Lu like you, she must be very happy in the second half of her life!" Aunt Xiuhua folded her palms together excitedly and looked up at the sky, "Wang Lian, you are in the sky, you should be relieved now!"
Zhang Jiu looked at Lu Yuan, and felt sad for a while, but he didn't say anything.
Of course, he could see why Lu Yuan lied, just to not make Aunt Xiuhua sad!
After all, if Aunt Xiuhua knew that Zhou Yun had disappeared and was taken to suffer, I am afraid that in the future, her mood would not be at peace.
"By the way, Xiao Lu, then, when will you and Xiao Yun get married, Aunt Xiuhua wants to eat your candy early." Aunt Xiuhua had a smile on her face at this time, obviously in a good mood.
"You old woman, Xiao Lu and Xiao Yun are not in a hurry, what are you anxious about. Zhao Jisheng said, but his face was obviously happy.
"I, we're married. Lu Yuan squeezed out a smile with difficulty, "I'm sorry, Aunt Xiuhua, Uncle Zhao, because I was too busy and too far away, I didn't invite you." β
Yes, he and Zhou Yun are already married!
Although at the last moment, he was destroyed by the Lingmiao Fairy Mother, but in Lu Yuan's heart, he had already given Zhou Yun a name!
It's just that when he said this, he thought of being alone and hesitating, but Zhou Yun didn't know what kind of scene at this time, that kind of sadness, I don't know how deep.
"Oh, what's the matter! We're all countrymen, and we're embarrassed to go. Aunt Xiuhua rubbed her hands excitedly, obviously hearing Lu Yuan say that she had been married, she was even more excited.
"By the way, Xiao Lu, are you going to eat?"
"Yes, but Aunt Xiuhua, if you have something to do, let's get busy first. Lu Yuan said, "Let's find another place." β
"It's okay, it's okay, let's go, Xiao Lu, since I met you, how can I make you hungry, go, Aunt Xiuhua will take you to eat! Eat delicious!" Aunt Xiuhua was happy at this time, and her face was also excited, and she grabbed Lu Yuan's hand tightly, as if Lu Yuan would fly away.
On the way, Lu Yuan finally knew what happened from Aunt Xiuhua's mouth.
It turned out that after Zhao Jisheng and Aunt Xiuhua opened a restaurant with a god-given faΓ§ade, because the two of them had good cooking skills and were purebred Sichuan-style farm dishes, they soon became famous, and they also became a well-known restaurant in Jincheng.
Especially the kind of rural earthen stove meals, which are very authentic.
Because of this, it is not uncommon for some wealthy people to invite them to cook a few dishes when they have a party.
This time, someone invited them to come to the door to cook, so it was closed.
"Xiao Lu, I know that you are a rich man, and you have eaten all kinds of delicacies from the mountains and seas, but this time, you go with Aunt Xiuhua, and I will cook you a few dishes that I am good at, and I guarantee that you have never eaten them. Aunt Xiuhua said.
"Hmm. Lu Yuan nodded.
It didn't take long for it to arrive.
A very luxurious manor, it seems that the owner is also very rich.
"Let's go through the side door. "Aunt Xiuhua and Zhao Jisheng came to help, and there is a special side door.
There was also a janitor at the side door, but Aunt Xiuhua said that Lu Yuan and Zhang Jiu were here to help, and the janitor didn't say anything, so she let them in.
When Aunt Xiuhua and Zhao Jisheng arrived in the kitchen, they immediately started to make four dishes and one soup for Lu Yuan and Zhang Jiu, and then began to prepare dishes for the party.
Half an hour later.
"Hey, are you all right, the guests are going to serve the food, why is it so slow, don't you want to be paid?" Someone came to urge, pointing to the dishes made on the board next to him, "These prepared dishes, serve them immediately!"
"Okay, okay. Aunt Xiuhua and Zhao Jisheng agreed, but both of them were very busy at this time, and they were really busy with other cooking in their hands, so they were a little anxious for a while.
"Aunt Xiuhua, let's come. β
Lu Yuan said and got up.
"Xiao Lu, how can I trouble you......"
"It's not troublesome, Aunt Xiuhua, if you hadn't cooked for us with Uncle Zhao just now, we wouldn't have delayed so much time, and it is only natural for me to help you, Zhang Jiu, with the board, let's go over and serve the food." β
"Very good, young master. Zhang Jiu agreed, and he had already started to pick it up, and together with Lu Yuan, he came to the living room on the other side.
In this living room, there are almost twenty tables of people, all gathered together, and it is very lively.
Lu Yuan and Zhang Jiu, the two of them split into two ways, and began to serve the food one table at a time.
"You're you again?!"
When Lu Yuan was assigned to one of the tables, a woman tugged at his sleeve.
"Zheng Jie?"
Lu Yuan was also stunned, why did he meet Zheng Jie again.
"Hehe, it turns out that you are serving food here as a runner?" Zheng Jie looked at Lu Yuan's gaze, always contemptuous, "But a part-time worker, in order to take a look at the white lion, he spent more than 500 yuan, just to follow the trend and pretend to be forced?" But you are too unlucky, there is no good thing anywhere, I think if you didn't go to the zoo today, the white lion probably wouldn't have died, it's all you, the sling, who was born with a bad fate, and killed the white lion!"
Zheng Jie's words, of course, are angry words.
But she was really angry, after all, she went to the zoo today to see the white lion and pray for good luck.
It turned out that there was such a thing, I didn't see anything, I didn't get anything.
In addition, he looked down on Lu Yuan in the first place, so he sprinkled his anger on Lu Yuan.
It's just that the speaker has no intention, but the listener has the intention.
Lu Yuan was already sad because of Leon's death, but in fact, he even always felt that he killed Leon in his heart, after all, if Tianxuan didn't die, Leon wouldn't die.
And Tianxuan died for himself!
It can be said that it was he who killed Leon, and this sentence is true!
At this time, from Zheng Jie's mouth again, Lu Yuan felt an uncontrollable self-blame, and couldn't help but be shocked.
The plate in my hand suddenly didn't hold it steady, boom!
All fell on Zheng Jie's body.
"Lu Yuan, you!"
Zheng Jie's face turned black in an instant, and her face turned purple with anger, "Do you know how much money I spent to qualify for this party! I just spent 500,000 yuan to attend this party just to make some more connections here! You make my clothes like this, how can I still socialize with people! You waste, do you know how much money, how many opportunities, and how many connections you have made me lose! How can you afford to pay for it!"
"Quiet, everyone. β
At this moment, a person was on the stage and suddenly spoke.
This man was in his forties, stout, and wore an Armani polo shirt with copper yuan printed on his upper body, showing a kind of wealthy and powerful momentum.
"Thank you for coming to my Hu Tiefu party today. Actually, I held a party this time to catch up with a big man, but it's a pity that the big man can't come because of something, otherwise everyone can admire his demeanor together. And I also prepared a very, very precious gift for the big man, but unfortunately, he still did not come, in this case, then today I will give this gift to all of you here! Everyone has a share! I promise, this is a gift you have never seen in your life, and it is also the most precious gift you have ever received!"
As he spoke, Hu Tiefu snapped and applauded twice.
At the door, the sound of wheels was heard.
A flatbed truck, pushed in by eight strong men.
The flatbed truck was huge, the size of a truck, and it was covered with a large cloth that was bulging underneath, and I don't know what it was.
Everyone's curiosity was all raised, and at this time, everyone's eyes were focused on the cloth.
Call!
The cloth was uncovered.
What is underneath is revealed.
Suddenly, everyone let out a burst of exclamations, and Lu Yuan couldn't help but be stunned.
A huge white lion is being tied to a flatbed truck.
The lion lay on its side decadently, as if it was dead, but its belly was still slightly lying together.
