Chapter 460: Wen Family Ancestor
Knowing that Yang Chengzhi was the descendant of the Zhou Zuo family, the old man surnamed Wen was shocked and at the same time reacquainted himself with this inscrutable young man.
The old man surnamed Wen has to see rich businessmen, dignitaries and nobles all over China many times a year, and he has also seen many children of the second generation of rich people and the second generation of officials.
Those people are all in the style of the first and second in front of their elders, so you can imagine what kind of style they have when they go outside.
And this Yang Chengzhi, in addition to being angry with those who slander traditional Chinese medicine, treats everyone with a kind and smiling face, and has never seen him oppress ordinary people with his identity.
In those days, some media dug up some of Yang Chengzhi's daily trivial matters in Yangjiagou, saying that this young man had changed a poor and backward mountain village in just one year and became a well-off village that everyone envied.
It is said that during the Chinese New Year last year alone, Yang Chengzhi distributed more than 40 million Chinese coins in red envelopes to the village names, and the village took out more than 30 million yuan for the Chinese New Year, which is something that only Meng Wei can do in Chinese history.
After being shocked, Wen Angelica smiled and said to his father and Yang Chengzhi: "Dad, Chengzhi, let's go into the house, grandpa is in a hurry."
The old man surnamed Wen nodded, no longer asked Yang Chengzhi anything, and took Yang Chengzhi towards the row of houses near the cliff, where there was an old lady of the Wen family who was eager to see the descendants of the Yang family.
The old man surnamed Wen took Yang Chengzhi into a room near the left, and when he entered the house, Yang Chengzhi looked at the room, which was about fifty square meters in size. There is a door near the east wall, which is obviously the same as the northern dwellings, with a room.
The decoration of the house is simple, near the north wall there is a table of eight immortals that is at least hundreds of years old, two Taishi chairs are placed on both sides, and the picture scrolls hanging on the wall are not like other people's pine cranes prolonging the year or tigers descending the mountain, but on this wall is the picture scroll of Shennong tasting a hundred herbs, which makes people know at a glance that this family is a family of traditional Chinese medicine.
The other walls, which were whitened by soft fluorescent lamps, were unadorned, and two rows of wooden chairs were placed by the windows of the room, where it appeared that some of the Wen family's family meetings were held.
After entering the house, the old man surnamed Wen stood respectfully on the ground and called softly: "Grandpa, Yang Chengzhi, a descendant of the Yang family, is here."
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw the door of the inner room open, and an old man with a bent waist slowly walked out from inside, and saw that this person had white hair, some gray faces were full of old age spots, and a coarse cloth clothes were worn on his body, showing the ordinary of the old man. Thinking about it, this is the only remaining fruit of the Wen family that the old man surnamed Wen said, the ancestor of the Wen family.
Seeing the appearance of the old man, Yang Chengzhi's heart tightened, he could feel from the old man's breath that the old man's cultivation had indeed reached the peak of the late stage of dark energy, but judging from the old man's face and staggering steps, the old man was still in his last years and had no time to live.
Seeing the old man come out, the old man surnamed Wen stepped forward quickly, stretched out his hand to support the old ancestor who was aging in various parts of his body, "Grandpa, slow down."
The old man smiled faintly, his body stiffened suddenly, and a powerful aura emanated from the old man's body, and the old man, who originally seemed to be in his last years, suddenly turned into a sharp blade and stood there upright.
"I'm old, but I'm not old enough to need help," the old man said proudly.
The old man surnamed Wen smiled, looked back at Yang Chengzhi and said: "Grandpa, this is Yang Chengzhi, the descendant of the Yang family, I heard that my grandfather was alive and came to visit, and said that there was an elixir in my hand that could make my grandfather break through."
After listening to the old man surnamed Wen, Yang Chengzhi stepped forward, walked to the old man, knelt down on his knees in front of the old man, and respectfully kowtowed three times, "Ancestor, Yang Chengzhi, the descendant of the Yang family, has asked the ancestor for peace."
Seeing Yang Chengzhi kowtow to his grandfather, the old man surnamed Wen and his son Wen Angelica blushed, he didn't kowtow to the old man like this after living for a long time, but this junior who met for the first time gave the old man this big gift, which really made the two embarrassed.
When the ancestor of the Wen family saw Yang Chengzhi perform this great gift, his eyes shrank, and at his age, only he knew how many ups and downs he had experienced.
Yang Chengzhi's etiquette was the kind of etiquette that people in their time had when they met the eldest in the family, and they hadn't seen this kind of etiquette for at least decades, but they couldn't imagine that a child in his twenties still remembered this kind of etiquette.
Thinking about the scene of people coming and going when he was friends with the Yang family, the old man's eyes were full of remembrance, and his eyes also revealed his love for Yang Chengzhi, so he hurriedly bent down to help Yang Chengzhi up.
"Child, originally I will never see Uncle Yang's descendants again in my life, but I didn't expect that God had eyes and left your bloodline for the Yang family, and the child didn't know which of the Yang family escaped."
Standing up, Yang Chengzhi looked at the old man, "Ancestor, it was my great-grandfather who escaped the catastrophe called Yang Jizu." After escaping, my grandfather went back to his hometown in Pingcheng to learn to cook, so our Yang family has been making a living from cooking all these years. ”
The old man raised his hand and touched Yang Chengzhi's head a few times, "I've suffered you all these years, why don't you go to the Wen family in Shaanxi Province."
didn't wait for Yang Chengzhi to answer. The old man surnamed Wen hurriedly said: "Grandpa, I heard Cheng Zhi say that the Yang family is afraid of causing trouble to our Wen family, so they have not been looking for a family that is good friends with the Yang family, and Cheng Zhi and they only know that the Yang family and our Wen family are world friends, and he doesn't know where our Wen family is."
The old man nodded, pulled Yang Chengzhi to the table of eight immortals placed in the room, and let Yang Chengzhi sit on one side, and he sat on the Taishi chair on the other side.
When the old man surnamed Wen and Wen Angelica saw this scene, their eyes showed a kind of shock, since they could remember, they had never seen anyone who could sit on the Taishi chair on the other side of the old man, that is, one of the five members of the Standing Committee of Huaxia came to Wenjiazhuang a few years ago, and he only sat on a chair that was moved.
Seeing that the old man and Yang Chengzhi sat down, the old man surnamed Wen and Wen Angelica also found a place to sit down, and they sat there waiting for the old man and Yang Chengzhi to finish talking and have dinner together.
"Child, I heard that you have met Uncle Ge," the old man said lightly.
Yang Chengzhi heard the old man say this name, and his heart was happy, it seems that this Wen family is really named after traditional Chinese medicine, and the puzzle in the old man's mouth is really the old man surnamed Wen who came back with him, and he has only told him about the things he has seen Ge Dao ancestor.
Yang Chengzhi nodded, "Old Ancestor, now Old Ancestor Ge is in Pingcheng Red Stone Cliff Taixuanguan."
"Uncle Ge's current cultivation is at least in the middle of the day after tomorrow."
"The last time I saw Ge Dao Ancestor, I heard Ge Dao Ancestor say that it was the peak of the middle of the day after tomorrow, and now maybe Ge Old Ancestor is already at the level of the late stage of the day after tomorrow, Ancestor, I see that you are always stuck at the peak of the late stage of dark energy."
The old man's eyes darkened when he heard Yang Chengzhi's words, "It's been more than 20 years, and I've failed to break through several times, and there won't be much time left if I don't break through."
Yang Chengzhi smiled faintly, "Ancestor, I have some pills here, which may help you break through to the acquired level."
Hearing Yang Chengzhi say this, the old man's eyes lit up for a moment, but then he dimmed, and said with a wry smile: "I heard that you have a strong bone pill in your hand, and the strong bone pill is not much help for breaking through to the acquired level, not to mention that I am so old."
Wen Yizhi, who was sitting not far from them, hurriedly said: "Grandpa, what Cheng Zhi said is not the Bone Strengthening Pill, at that time Cheng Zhi also said that this kind of pill is not of much use to your old age, Cheng Zhi has other pills."
Listening to his grandson's words, the old man turned his head to look at Yang Chengzhi, "Child, what other pills do you have, won't you still be able to refine Ziyun Pill?"
Hearing the old man's question, Yang Chengzhi showed surprise, he didn't expect the old man to also know about Ziyun Dan, but then calmed down, the ancestor of the Wen family may be a martial artist at the level of Tongming, and there are so many rare medicinal materials planted in this place, and it is very possible to leave some ancient books introducing pills.
Thinking of this, Yang Chengzhi nodded, "Ancestor, I do have Ziyun Dan in my hand, the year before last I occasionally encountered a Chaoyin Zizhu in Shennongjia, so I have the main medicine for refining Ziyun Dan at hand."
When the old man heard Yang Chengzhi say that it was really Ziyun Pill, his eyes suddenly brightened, and when he said Ziyun Pill, he just guessed where Yang Chengzhi might get this precious pill, but he didn't expect that this child was the Ziyun Pill he refined.
The ancient books at home also record that Ziyun Dan is a pill suitable for breakthrough and acquired level, and the main thing for refining Ziyun Dan is that it is a medicinal material against the sky, but the leaves of Chaoyin Zizhu are rare things that cannot be seen in the world.
But I didn't expect this child to encounter this kind of strange thing in Shennongjia, this character is simply too rebellious, he lived for more than one hundred and fifty years, and Shennongjia has been to dozens of times, but except for some rare herbs that can be seen in the market, there is no big harvest.
"Child, how many leaves are there in the Chaoyin purple bamboo you encountered, and have you picked them all," the old man hurriedly asked.
"Twenty-four pieces, I picked them all, there was no Ziyun Dan pill before, so I used these leaves to feed the family and the animals in the courtyard, and after getting the Ziyun Dan recipe from Ge Dao Ancestor, there were not many leaves left of the Chaoyin Zizhu Bamboo, I tried to refine a few furnaces of pills, and I was lucky enough to refine a few grains."
The old man listened to Yang Chengzhi say that the Chaoyin purple bamboo leaves were prepared into a decoction for the family and the animals in the yard to eat, the old man looked at Yang Chengzhi with a painful face, and said in his heart: This loser boy, such a precious thing is wasted like this.
However, the old man was also curious about what level this human and animal could reach after taking the medicinal liquid prepared by the Chaoyin purple bamboo leaves, but Yang Chengzhi didn't say that he was not easy to ask.
"You have successfully refined it yourself, how many Ziyun Pills have been refined", the old man simply wanted to put aside Yang Chengzhi's head to see what kind of brain this guy had, how could even this kind of pill be successfully refined.
He knew the difficulty of refining pills, and if he wanted to refine pills, the first thing was to have the qualifications to refine pills, and he also had a good pill furnace.
He also tried to refine a few furnaces of pills a few years ago, and a lot of rare medicinal materials were wasted, but he didn't succeed once, and after a few times, he was also disheartened and unwilling to waste those medicinal materials anymore.
"Old Ancestor, I have successfully refined a total of twenty-eight Purple Yun Pills, except for the sixteen pills used by my family, and now I still have twelve pills on hand, which is enough for you to break through," Yang Chengzhi said with a smile.
Hearing that Yang Chengzhi had refined a total of twenty-eight Purple Yun Pills, the old man looked at Yang Chengzhi blankly, if this was spread out, it would not set off a shocking wave in the cultivation world.
"Child, it's best not to mention the matter of refining the Ziyun Pill to anyone, you also know that this pill has a great effect on breaking through the dark energy level to the acquired level, and letting people with a heart know it will cause you unnecessary trouble."
Seeing the prudence of what the old man said, Yang Chengzhi nodded, "Ancestor, these twelve Purple Yun Pills, I will give you six pills, and then give you six bottles of Bone Strengthening Pill, which will be given to those juniors who have the talent for martial arts in the future."
The old man hurriedly waved his hand, "Child, there are too many, you only have six pills left, just give me two," Yang Chengzhi made half of his move, which made the ancestor of the Wen family unable to accept it at once.
He knew the scarcity of Chaoyin Zizhu, and this Ziyun Pill was one less with one grain, and he was really embarrassed to accept it if he asked this junior who had just met to give half of it at once.
Yang Chengzhi smiled, "Ancestor is so decided, I also like a lot of medicinal herbs here from you, if you don't want to go, just send me some herb seeds and seedlings."
Wen Yizhi over there also nodded and said, "Grandpa, Cheng Zhi also said just now that when we leave, write down the effects of those herbs whose names we don't know."
"That's okay, kid, my old man is not welcome, I have all these things, what do you need, as long as Wenjiazhuang has it, you can bring it up."
In the old man's opinion, the Wen family was able to get so many Ziyun Pills and Bone Strengthening Pills, taking advantage of Yang Chengzhi's boss, and many of the medicinal materials in Wenjiazhuang didn't know what their effects were, since Yang Chengzhi needed it, he should change his favors.
Seeing that the old man agreed, Yang Chengzhi took the backpack, took out seven jade bottles from it and put them on the table of the Eight Immortals, and pushed them to the old man, "Old Ancestor, you put away these pills, I will stay here for a few days after your old breakthrough, and after your old breakthrough, I will go back to Pingcheng."
"Child, the old man knows what you think, without Ziyun Pill, I will definitely be able to break through to the acquired level, and go to the forest outside where you have nothing to do, there are a lot of rare herbs, but remember not to go to a place with a sign warning."
Yang Chengzhi nodded, "I made a note of the ancestor, does the ancestor have an alchemy furnace at home now, when it's okay, I'll refine a batch of bone strengthening pills for you by the way."
"Yes, yes, the ancestors of the Wen family were not born in alchemy, but they left us a Xuan-level alchemy furnace, which has been stored in the cave at the back, you write out the medicinal materials you need, and I will let them prepare them when the time comes."
Hearing that Yang Chengzhi was going to refine the pill for the Wen family, the old man was overjoyed, this is a great thing, and now the decline of Huaxia Guwu is due to the deterioration of the environment.
On the other hand, it is also because there are too few pills that can increase cultivation, and in the short life of a human being of more than a hundred years, it is good to be able to cultivate to the level of dark energy, and hot weapons are now prevalent at home, so ordinary people are not willing to spend effort to learn ancient martial arts.
