Chapter 31: The Family Feast

The red sun was sinking, and the fiery breath slowly dissipated in the wilderness. The cold moonlight sprinkled on the open space in front of the Huangchen camp, and a layer of blue cencen's glow was plated on Fang Ran's shoulder.

Fang Ran sat cross-legged on the ground, his closed eyes opened, and the divine brilliance flashed in his eyes, and then all of them converged.

Tang Qianqian and Ou Ye stood a few feet behind him, and farther away were Ying Ruoyan and Zhong Mingtai, and behind them were the Huangchen guards in a neat array.

They looked at Fang Ran who was sitting cross-legged, and the expressions on their faces were different.

The guards of the Wasteland, with a kind of fanaticism and adoration in their eyes, also have indescribable pride and pride.

Zhong Mingtai's eyelids drooped, little by little he gathered strength to deal with the next battle that could come at any time.

Ying Ruoyan was thoughtful, and the gaze that fell on Fang Ran had a certain softness and relief.

Tang Qianqian seemed to be a little bored, and dismantled and pretended the Heavenly Thunder in his hand, and the corners of his eyes slid from Fang Ran's body for a while.

And among all the people present, Ou Ye, who had the highest cultivation except for Fang Ran, looked at Fang Ran's solemn gaze, as if he wanted to see Fang Ran from the inside out.

The sword that killed the Marquis of Canglu, coupled with the huge amount of calculation and analysis that was carried out by urging the Heavenly Machine Roulette in order to release this sword, completely consumed the spiritual power that Fang Ran had stored these days.

The Seven Peerless Princes, the intelligence obtained from any source shows that he is an even more tricky enemy than the Marquis of Canglu. This enemy was like a sharp sword hanging above Fang Ran's head, so that Fang Ran could no longer care about hiding, and after killing the Marquis of Canglu, he immediately sat cross-legged on the ground and began to vomit and recover.

He deliberately controlled the speed of the vomit, but whether it was the Heavenly Machine Roulette or the River Tracing Classic, when he vomited spiritual power, the movement caused was still not small.

Bang la, bla blah......

The spiritual power on the wilderness surged towards Fang Ran like waves, and then Fang Ran swallowed up these spiritual powers like a bottomless abyss in this sea of spiritual power.

A thin layer of blue light enveloped Ou Ye, and also wrapped everyone in the wilderness, isolating this piece was like sweet food to the other party, but it was enough to tear apart their spiritual power.

"Hehe, old, old...... In this lifeless wilderness of silence, it seems that there are about to make new waves. Ou Ye laughed to himself.

How could he not see that the inheritance that Fang Ran had already far exceeded the limits of the Abyssal Silence Realm.

Having a relationship with Huang Chen, or more directly, with Fang Ran, what it means is that it is likely that it is no longer just a dispute over the pros and cons of this corner of the Abyssal Field, but it is likely to involve some kind of larger force, which is more dangerous.

But chance is always accompanied by danger.

As soon as he thought of this, Ou Ye's sword-like gaze gradually softened.

Fang Ran felt the change in the scrutinizing gaze behind him, and smiled slightly.

A transaction is a transaction after all, but from this moment on, Fang Ran knew that the relationship between Huangchen and the Tang family could no longer be a cold exchange of interests, but could develop into a closer alliance.

And friends, it's always not too much.

"Hiss......"

White Snake ...... The huge body, now called a tabula rasa, rises from the ground. The tip of its tail scratched the ground, and then rubbed it as if to give it a smile.

It was almost as big as Fang Ran with only one fang, and it seemed to rub affectionately, on Fang Ran's side, it was no less than a hill crashing over.

"Don't, don't...... What's in it for you to kill me?" Fang Ran pushed the big head away with difficulty, turned around and said to everyone with a look of disbelief...... It seems to have receded. ”

"Retreated?" Shadow looked up in surprise and asked, "This doesn't suit his style......

Ou Ye nodded in agreement and said, "Indeed, in the past few years, the Seven Absolute Sons have made a move, and they will definitely not stop until they reach their goal." But ......"

"But what?" Fang Ran asked.

"If the sword you killed the Marquis of Canglu fell in his eyes, it was possible for him to have scruples. ”

Fang Ran frowned: "If he had watched the whole process, he should have been able to see that after my sword, my strength was empty, and it was a good time to take advantage of the void." Just retreat...... It's a little weird!"

"Ha, no matter what, anyway, at least I can sleep peacefully today!" Tang Qianqian patted Fang Ran on the shoulder, pretending to comfort Fang Ran.

"But don't take it lightly, since he has seen the battle situation himself, then our hole cards must have been more or less discovered by him. This time, the Seven Absolute Sons didn't make a move, so the next time he made a move, he would definitely be sure that he would kill with one blow. ”

"Yes, my subordinates will tell my brothers who watch the night to be more vigilant. Zhong Mingtai hugged his fists.

Stretching his waist, Fang Ran ordered: "Since it's okay, everyone should go back to the camp." After a day of fighting, a day of mental tension, let's have a good rest. ”

Everyone dispersed, and Ying Ruoyan took a few steps forward, accompanying the attendants.

On weekdays, in this case, she will also disperse and arrange other affairs.

But today is different.

Tang Qianqian and Ou Ye, as the heads and stewards of the Tang family, played a vital role in the battle against the Marquis of Canglu and helped a lot. Be reasonable and reasonable, and never slack off.

"Not long after the Huangchen accident, the entertainment should not be as good as the Tang family, and the Tang Young Master Ou seniors please take care of it more. At this moment, Ying Ruoyan showed his ability to take care of people and things as a manager.

Even if she had fought with Ou Ye before, shouting and shouting when she met was far more than ordinary greetings, but at this time, she was neither humble nor arrogant, completely ignoring her previous suspicions, which made people feel like a spring breeze.

"Where, where. Ou Ye also said politely, looking at him as an ordinary old man with kind eyebrows.

When the group reached the tent, there was already wine and food on the long table. The wine and food are simple, but they are delicious enough for Fang Ran after the bumpy road and the big battle.

For Fang Ran, who can directly absorb the spiritual power of heaven and earth, ordinary three meals a day is no longer so necessary. Abundant spiritual power is the best nourishment for muscles and bones.

But for a living person, hot food and warm wine can always give people spiritual comfort.

Especially like now, everyone sat around a table, talking, laughing, feasting, drinking and talking, giving Fang Ran a feeling that he was finally able to go home after a hard day.

Satisfied, he swallowed a large mouthful of food, drank another bowl of turbid wine, and leaned back in his chair without any image.

This kind of commonplace seems to be a long-lost feeling for Tang Qianqian and Ou Ye.

Seeing that Fang Ran had a bowl of wine and straightened up, Ou Ye also drank the wine at hand, and said casually: "I heard that the cook of Huangchen is also a must, but I didn't expect that the old man and I can also have a feast and see this day." ”

"Ha, if you want to eat in the future, you can come and eat. Fang Ran smiled and said generously.

Tang Qianqian gulped down the rice: "Well, it's Uncle Biou, what you made is delicious!"

"Hmph, if there is no cook in the mountain, why let the old man cook for me myself?" Ou Ye blew his beard and glared, looking at Tang Qianqian's eyes, but with a smile, he turned to Fang Ran again and asked, "Master Fang, the blue-eyed lion and tiger beast that attacked the camp earlier is useful to my Tang family, I don't know ......."

"That was killed by Senior Ou, and it should have belonged to the Tang family. I have already asked people to prepare the carriage and horses, and I will help transport them back to the Tang family when the time comes. ”

"Haha, then thank you to Mr. Fang. Blue-eyed ligers are rare and even more difficult to hunt. The old man was able to kill him smoothly, but it was also thanks to the help of the guards in the camp that the animal retreated. The Tang family has several powerful mechanisms, and it is just the right time to use the parts of this kind of fierce beast that has become a climate. ”

Fang Ran nodded: "I have already seen the benefits of the Tang family's organs. The three cars of the greedy wolf of the Seven Killing Army did help a lot, otherwise, it would take more energy to deal with the group of blood puppets of the Marquis of Canglu. ”

"Even if you don't have these three machine cars, presumably Huang Chen won't be afraid of those blood puppets......, right? The old man has seen it. I didn't expect to see such an exquisite method of battle in this wilderness. Ou Ye stroked his beard, his gaze became distant, and he wondered if he was recalling the majesty of his youth.

"It's just a fluke, it's nothing bad. Fang Ran said modestly, and then continued, "However, the method of joint battle, after all, is a taboo in the field of Yuanmo, and when it comes to using it, you still have to be cautious." The matter of Tianleimen is not over yet, I don't want to let the trouble escalate again, and now I will provoke the four parts of wind, rain, thunder and lightning, and then be hunted down and killed by them together. ”

"Heavenly Thunder Gate?" Ou Ye asked suspiciously, "I have heard a little about the events of the other day. Tianlei Gate, this trouble is not a big deal, but it is not easy to deal with. ”

Fang Ran's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly asked, "Senior Ou knows about the situation in the Heavenly Thunder Gate?"

Ou Ye nodded slightly: "After all, I have lived for half a lifetime, and these things, in bits and pieces, I will still know more." Tianlei Gate is the thunder part of the four parts of wind, rain, thunder and lightning in the field of Yuanmo Star, you already know this. Tianleimen is known for its ruthlessness, and when it comes out with one blow, it is caught off guard. ”

"Definitely. When the Japanese attack came, Huangchen really didn't see the slightest warning. was knocked on the door, so he barely reacted, and hurriedly responded to the battle......" Fang Ran mobilized his memory and recalled the situation at that time.

"I heard that on that day, it was the deputy commander of the Tianlei Sect who was in charge personally? hehe, if you change any of the fields in the Yuanmo Field, I'm afraid you won't be able to do better. ”

"Regarding the leader of the Heavenly Thunder Gate, do you know anything else?"

"I know, how don't you know? When I was young, I was almost killed by him, and at that time, Lei Guan was only the head of the Heavenly Thunder Sect. How could I not know about a friendship that almost killed me?"

Fang Ran was surprised: "There are still such old things?"

Ou Ye said: "Yes, I was young and vigorous at the beginning, and I had a lot of dissatisfaction in my heart, and that battle was a fluke, and I finally picked up a small life." At that time, Lei Guan was already a figure who was about to stand at the peak of the three-step martial arts, and after all these years, he didn't expect him to have advanced to four steps. The immortals are separated by each other, I'm afraid that if there is another fight, the old man will have no chance of winning. ”

"Four Steps to Promotion...... Is it difficult?" Fang Ran wondered.

"For us criminals, it's absolutely ......impossible," Ou Ye looked at Fang Ran, added two more words, and changed his words, "It's almost impossible." Cultivation exercises are all over the place, and the Taoist canons of cultivation are treasures that can't be exchanged for a thousand gold!"

Dao Classics? Fang Ran remembered the Dao Dao Classics analyzed by the ancient scrolls of the River Tracer, judging from the name, could it be that this thin booklet of Qi Drawing and Storing Spirits is a method that can shed off the mortal shell and go straight to the four steps? No wonder it can be so domineering to exhale spiritual power.

Fang Ran remained silent, just silently continued to listen to Ou Ye's speech.

"The thunder guide of the Heavenly Thunder Gate is such a Taoist classic. In the Realm of Abyssal Silence, the spiritual power is violent, and ordinary criminals, even if they really have a Dao canon, it is impossible to cultivate. However, the Heavenly Thunder Gate is the guard who guards the sinners, doing things for the Lord of Yuanmo, accumulating credit, and being able to exchange this credit for the opportunity to leave Yuanmo Star and go to a more suitable place for cultivation to break through the realm. If you break through the realm and come back, you will be able to completely dominate one side. ”

"Lei Guan has saved enough credit, so he left Yuanmo and was able to break through the realm?"

"Not bad. Over the years, Tianleimen has made a lot of contributions. Lei Guan is the deputy commander, and Lei Tong, the great commander of the Heavenly Thunder Gate, is his elder brother, and his cultivation is also higher, and he has gone out twice with merit, once breaking four steps, and once reaching the middle realm of four steps. Your sister Fang Qingyu was caught by them, and she must have wanted to exchange it for credit, but I don't know who it was this time to break the realm. However, I estimate that Lei Guan still has to break through the four steps, after all, the four steps to the upper realm, where is it so easy to reach? Three steps to four steps, even if there is a Taoist canon of cultivation, whether or not you can take this step depends on personal accumulation and chance. Lei Guan Lei Tong, I am afraid that it is also relying on the legacy of his ancestors, and he has invested in the accumulation of Tianlei Gate for so many years, so that he can advance to the fourth step. In the future, the small realm will break through the realm and die for a lifetime, and the big realm will break through the realm for a hundred and not one in a hundred. It's only confined to a broken place like Yuanmo, and you want to break through the four-step upper realm? hehe, wishful thinking!"

Fang Ran showed a clear expression.

For the situation of the beginning of the four trails upward, he really didn't know too many details. What Ou Ye said was not much different from what Fang Ran estimated. Inside the Tianlei Gate, there is a four-step middle realm and a four-step initial realm.

It's just that I don't know what kind of combat power the four-step realm has.

After Fang Ran told Ou Ye about his doubts, Ou Ye thought for a moment and replied to him, "You just need to remember the four words that Xianfan is different. One step, two steps, three steps, are still just mortals. Is Wu extremely strong? But it is nothing more than greater strength, faster speed, better endurance, and rough skin and thick flesh that are more difficult to hurt. Four Steps...... It is possible to manipulate spiritual power, rather than simply exhaling spiritual power. Let's put it this way, one, two, three steps, that is, to hit people with stones, to hit people with slingshots, and at the beginning of four steps, the stones are thrown out, you can make the stones turn by themselves, chase people and smash them, the stones can catch fire, they can turn into ice cubes, they can be stained with lightning, and of course it hurts more to hit people. ”

"Simple and straightforward. Fang Ran nodded.

Ou Ye looked at Fang Ran, leaned closer and whispered to him, "I know that your path of cultivation is different from ours, and it is a Dharma Dao canon that can go further. But don't take it lightly. I can see that you haven't taken that step yet, and you haven't really reached that realm, because you don't know how terrible that realm is. ”

"I understand that. But three months later...... No, two and a half months later, the Patrol Boat arrived, and my sister was going to be taken away. At that point, the hope of saving her back will be even more slim. ”

"Then do you know where the Heavenly Thunder Gate is, and where the Star Patrol Kunzhou will fall?"

"After checking these days, I have a general direction, but no matter how specific the details are, we still need to explore. ”

Ou Ye glanced at Fang Ran deeply, the latter's eyes were firm, and even a little stubborn, as if he had decided on something and something, he would definitely not change his mind easily.

"Hey...... That's fine. I'll go back tomorrow to get the tools, dismantle the blue-eyed liger, and get you a set of armor. The attack of the four-step middle realm, as long as you don't hard-connect head-on, the aftermath should still be able to withstand it. Damn, I can't stand a stubborn young man like you the most. ”

Fang Ran got up and saluted Ou Ye solemnly: "Thank you, Senior Ou." ”
