Chapter 176: Kindness and Righteousness in the Heart
Along the way, the wind was galloping, and all mortals, monks, and those who saw it immediately turned sideways and gave way. The Wuhou Mansion stopped the war strongly, saving Jiang Feng and the four of them from a bitter battle, but it also made the situation in Wuhou County even more confusing.
On the way, although Wu Xiulin talked with Jiang Feng and the three of them for a few words and knew the names of several people, he didn't mention why he knew that they were from the Cloud Sky Palace.
Jiang Feng and the others could only have doubts for the time being, and go back to Wuhou Mansion with Wu Xiulin first, at least from the current point of view, Wu Xiulin had no ill will towards them, otherwise they would not help each other at the critical moment.
At the same time, even if the three Bi Cong were unwilling, they could only accept the fact that they were incapable of capturing Jiang Feng and the four of them, and turned back to the Yue family to discuss and make a decision, and then reported the speculation to the sect for final judgment.
The fierce iron horse galloped all the way, and after a short time, he had reached a huge city within a city in the center of Wuhou County, Jiang Feng looked up at the magnificent palace building, and knew that his party had entered the first force in Wuhou County.
Here, it is the "Wuhou Mansion"!
Jiang Feng first settled the sleeping Dugu Shengyi under the guidance of Wu Xiulin, and after teaming up with Xia Yeyan to arrange multiple prohibitions and spirit arrays, he went with Youmeng to visit his father, Wuhou "Wu Zhenfang"!
"Father Lao has been waiting for a long time, and the child has taken his friend back, and he will return the talisman!"
In the hall of Wuhou Mansion, Wu Xiulin solemnly returned the soldier talisman to his father Wu Zhenfang, Jiang Feng and the three of them saw this contemporary Wuhou for the first time, and they also humbly greeted each other and thanked them for their grace in relieving the siege, and the two sides were officially acquainted under the introduction of Wu Xiulin.
"The three little Taoist friends don't have to be formal, the one who comes is a guest, please take a seat!"
Wu Zhenfang was kind in his majesty, and Wu Xiulin invited Jiang Feng and the three of them to sit in the guest seat, and after the maid served tea, he carefully looked at Jiang Feng, Summer Night and Dream.
"The old man had heard Lin Er mention it before, saying that on the return trip, he met four like-minded people in the same way, and he was curious about what kind of characters he was.
"Master Hou praised it falsely! Our companion ......"
Wu Zhenfang and Jiang Feng had a few simple conversations and praised them, but they didn't know the details, so they inevitably had some doubts about the current situation of Dugu Shengyi. Summer Night Death and Youmeng have been covered by a black veil at this time, Wu Zhenfang has the grace to rescue them, and he is a senior, so he can only be answered by Jiang Feng, so as not to be rude.
At that moment, Jiang Feng roughly explained the incident to Wu Zhenfang, and briefly explained the current state of Dugu Shengyi, Wu Xiulin added from the side, and Wu Zhenfang was suddenly surprised.
"A few little friends have such ability at this level, and they are worthy of being disciples of the Kyushu Immortal Immortal Sect!"
Wu Zhenfang once again brought up the doubts in the hearts of the three of them, Jiang Feng immediately hugged his fists and asked: "Master Hou, Martial Daoyou, I also have questions in my heart, please answer them, I don't know how Martial Daoyou knew that we are disciples of Yunxiao Palace?"
Wu Xiulin's father and son smiled at each other, Wu Zhenfang clasped his palms together and patted it, and immediately a servant respectfully held a Lingxiu long sword and presented it in front of Jiang Feng.
"Can you recognize this?"
This sentence, Wu Zhenfang said in the Kyushu language, Jiang Feng was even more surprised when he heard this, and then picked up the spirit sword and studied it carefully, and finally pulled out the spirit sword with a slight emotion, so as to confirm the origin of this sword.
"This sword is the unified sword of my Yunxiao Hall disciples, dare to ask where did the Wuhou seniors get it?"
Jiang Feng also replied in Kyushu dialect, shocked and also guessed, no wonder Wu Xiulin deduced that they were disciples of the Cloud Hall after seeing Xia Yeyan's sword before.
At the end, Jiang Feng also took out his matching sword under Wu Zhenfang's expectant gaze and showed it to the Wu family and his son. Who knew that the other party suddenly laughed heartily after carefully comparing the two swords, and the doubts and a trace of uncertainty between his eyebrows immediately disappeared, and his expression was extremely happy, and he did not stop for a long time.
"Congratulations to my father for finally getting his wish!"
"It should be said that the sky has eyes, so that the old man can finally repay Zuen today!"
Wu Xiulin congratulated Wu Zhenfang, his father smiled, and his gaze at Jiang Feng and the three of them became softer and softer, as if the elders were looking at their favorite juniors.
In Jiang Feng's deeper and deeper doubts, Wu Zhenfang eased his excitement a little, and then explained to them: "Don't be surprised, little friend, the old man knows that you have doubts in your heart, don't worry, the old man will tell you one by one!"
Wu Zhenfang returned Jiang Feng's matching sword to him, and picked up another disciple matching sword of the Cloud Palace, stroking it carefully, and there was a reminiscence in his eyes.
"This sword is the relic of the benefactor of the ancestor of my Wuhou Mansion, and it has existed in this mansion for more than 300 years! In the past, the Wuhou Mansion was in great decline, and the ancestor of my Wu clan was besieged and killed by the enemy when he went out, and his life was in danger.
Wu Zhenfang handed the spirit sword into Wu Xiulin's hand, and continued: "At that time, the ancestor was in a hurry to flee for his life, and in desperation, he could only bury his benefactor in the wild and take his matching sword with him. Later, the ancestor escaped, and after the incident subsided, he wanted to find the bones of his benefactor and bury them properly, but he was nowhere to be found. The ancestor felt the righteousness of his benefactor, felt ashamed, and blamed himself in every way, so he could only set up a wordless spiritual seat in the ancestral hall, place this sword in front, and ask my descendants of the Wu clan to worship it every day!"
Wu Zhenfang had already determined the identity of Jiang Feng and the others at this time, so he didn't hide it anymore, and explained the reason and the reason, Jiang Feng couldn't help but feel emotionally for a while.
"I can't imagine such a reason!"
"Now, although time has passed, but the old man has been taught by his father since he was a child, if there was no benefactor to save him, maybe there is no Wuhou Mansion today, his old man told me not to forget the righteousness of the benefactor, I have always remembered it. Now that he has to see his benefactor and the descendants of the same clan, how can the old man not be happy? How can he not be emotional?"
Wu Zhenfang's voice was full of emotion, moving with affection, and he laughed three times after speaking, his mood was very happy, and Jiang Feng and the three of them couldn't help but feel agitated and moved.
Seeing this, Wu Xiulin also smiled at Jiang Feng and said, "Jiang Daoyou, although you met in Pingshui, you were quite close to each other at first sight. I got the news before, I heard the news that the little son of the Yue family and the house slave died at the same time, and guessed that it was very likely that you did it, so I asked my father for a military talisman to go to the rescue, but I didn't expect that this karma was achieved by accident!"
Jiang Feng finally understood the beginning and end of everything today, this Wu Xiulin was also a bold friend, because he couldn't bear to lose their lives and the hands of Suwanggu, he took a lot of trouble to lead his troops to rescue.
"Humph!"
After listening to Wu Xiulin's words, his father Wu Zhenfang also frowned again and said unhappily: "The little son of the Yue family is just an arrogant villain and a waste, and his master Bi Cong has always been the most protective of his shortcomings without asking about the merits, and he is also a ridiculous person. Now you will kill him, and you will be considered to be a blessing to the people, and if he does not die, I do not know that in the future there will be few innocent people who will die at his hands!"
Jiang Feng looked at Wu Zhenfang, but he didn't expect that this majestic old man was also a hot-blooded chivalrous man who was eager for justice and righteousness. Therefore, it is not surprising that he is such a person as Wu Xiulin.
Wuhou Mansion can remember a kindness more than 300 years ago, and still does not forget it, and even wants to repay it to the descendants of his benefactor, which shows the kindness of his clan.
He didn't think that Wu Xiulin's actions were ridiculous or unreasonable, in the cultivation world, most of the monks were sons and daughters of the rivers and lakes, and it was rare for a chivalrous person like Wu Xiulin to be happy and vengeful, but it was not uncommon.
"Virtuous nephew, don't worry, there is no need to worry about this matter, the old man can promise you here, and he will protect you from harm! Even if the Wuhou Mansion has declined now, and many places are not as good as before, but the old man has personally come forward for you, and I don't believe that he dares to mess around with Suwanggu!"
Jiang Feng looked at Wu Zhenfang and was stunned for a few breaths, as if he was shocked by his words, and then hurriedly bowed down with Xia Ye and Yumeng: "...... Thank you Lord Hou for your help, Jiang Mouxing is in my heart, and I will never forget it!"
It was originally a meeting in Pingshui and did not owe each other, even if there was the kindness of the ancestors, but after three hundred years, how many people still regarded it as the same thing?
They didn't have to be like this, the Wuhou Mansion came forward to save Jiang Feng and the four of them today, but they were still willing to settle the incident for Jiang Feng and the others for free, just to repay the favor owed by the ancestors.
As the saying goes, kindness and righteousness are in the heart, but such a kind and righteous person, Jiang Feng has seen a few people, and invisibly, his mental defense against Wu Zhenfang's father and son has all collapsed, and he even feels a little closer in his heart.
"The three little friends don't have to be like this, you are benefactors after the same door, and you are the same generation as the dogs, at first sight, you are the guests and distinguished guests in this Hou Mansion. If you don't mind, you can call the old man a martial senior, you don't need to see it like this, and you can be called 'Hou Ye'. ”
Jiang Feng looked at the kind Wu Zhenfang, and then looked at Wu Xiulin, who was chuckling lightly, and then smiled: "That...... Jiang Feng, thank you senior!"
"Okay, Lin'er! Jiang Xiaoyou, they traveled and practiced, and they came to Wuhou County after a long journey, and they were tired, so take them down to rest!"
Wu Zhenfang gave an order, and Jiang Feng and the three of them immediately hugged their fists and said goodbye, and went to the upper room of Wuhou Mansion to rest under the guidance of Wu Xiulin.
At the moment when the figures of the four disappeared behind the door, the smile on Wu Zhenfang's face suddenly disappeared, as if he had changed someone in an instant. He took out a pendant from the storage ring, it was Wu Xiulin's thing, at this time, this pendant flashed with a violent light, until Jiang Feng's three figures completely disappeared before it slowly calmed down and returned to normal.
"Send this thing back to the ancestral hall, and when the young master comes back, he will come to the secret room to see me!"
Wu Zhenfang glanced at the Cloud Hall Spirit Sword of the Ancestor Benefactor, and in a flat tone, the servant on the side gave orders, and then turned to leave.
......
After a stick of incense, Wu Xiulin returned, learned of his father's order, and was about to go to the secret room, but happened to meet Wu Zhenfang coming out of the secret room.
"Father's ......"
Wu Zhenfang raised his hand to stop Wu Xiulin's question, turned around to confirm that the secret room was safe, and then returned to his room with his son.
"They are indeed from Kyushu, and they are indeed disciples of the Cloud Palace!"
"Does the father mean that he also approves of the child's judgment?"
Wu Zhenfang sat high on the chair, looking at Wu Xiulin's pendant and pondering with low eyebrows, while Wu Xiulin stood respectfully in front of him, waiting for his father's orders.
"Although their cultivation is not high, since they are from the Immortal Gu Immortal Sect, they may really be able to ......."
"Then the father decided to ......"
"No hurry!"
At this moment, outside the Wuhou Mansion, somewhere in the void, an old man with a cane stood out of thin air, and the whole person seemed to be integrated with the void, although Wuhou County was large, although there were many monks, even if there were many sects, no one was aware of his existence, as if he did not exist in the first place.
The old man looked at the Wuhou Mansion below, as if he was perceiving something, for a long time, the corners of his mouth suddenly hooked up an inexplicable weird smile, and finally turned away like a ghost, disappearing without a trace.
"Don't worry! The old man is not in a hurry......
