Chapter 11 Shangguan Ming
Xiao Luo and Xue Yuan, who had not yet figured out how to arrange it, had a relationship with the Wen family because of this sudden incident.
Wen Ning realized that the two did not disagree with their behavior, but understood it very well, so he guessed that they knew something like himself, and in addition to his own family since he was a child, he met the same "insider" for the first time, especially when he lost a group of friends because of this, Wen Ning was very happy about the existence of the two.
Although they won Wen Ning's favor, Xiao Luo and Xue Yun did not take the opportunity to use this favor to ask, but only sent Wen Ning home safely and told him to be careful in the future, and left the address in the city under Wen Ning's expectations.
Wen Ning returned home, and told his grandfather Wen Xian what happened before without concealment, and on the second day, Xiao Luo and Xue Yu were not unexpectedly invited, and followed Wen Ning into the door of the Wen family, and met Wen Ning's grandfather, Wen Xian, who was nearly three hundred years old and was about to reach the end of the foundation building period's cultivator's longevity.
Xiao Luo and Xue Yuan sat in the living room of the Wen family's house, sat at the table with Wen Xian, and politely had tea.
Wen Xian and Yu Bo, who the two met in Loucheng, felt very different, and the guests were warm and a little guarded.
After Wen Xian exchanged polite words with the two, he thanked the two for their help the night before, and tolerated his grandson Wen Ning's unreasonable and reckless behavior. Wen Xian only said that Wen Ning was still young and ignorant, and did not mention the reason for Wen Ning's behavior, only saying that he was a little ashamed as an elder.
Xiao Luo and Xue Yuan glanced at each other, understanding Wen Xian's cautious temptation, Xue Yuan thought about it, and did not continue to detour around the corner, and said bluntly: "Senior Wen is too worried, Wen Ning is just a moment of righteous indignation, and he is not cautious in parallel things. Having said that, in the face of such injustice, even ordinary people will be upset when they hear it, especially in ...... Xiangcheng is in such an environment. ”
Xiao Luo looked at Wen Xian's still calm smile on his face, thought for a while, and added after Xue Yuan: "Especially, as a person who has received the favor of the Shangguan family." ”
The three words "Shangguan's family" really made the old man who had been calm on the other side of the table couldn't help but have a flash in his eyes.
"Two Little Friends ......"
"Senior Wen. Seeing that Wen Xian still wanted to vaguely bypass the past, Xue Yuan couldn't help but interrupt: "The junior understands your concerns, and also knows that some things are easy to get into trouble once they are known, so you should be cautious." It's just this thing...... It was the clue to that matter so important to me that I didn't want to give up easily. The younger generation knows that he is in the difficult position of a strong man, and you don't believe that we should meet in Pingshui, so ...... The younger generation is willing to make a vow that no matter how much news about you and your family will not be divulged in the future. ”
Xue Yuan's voice was not loud, and his tone was not heavy, but it really made Wen Xian on the other side of the table change his expression a little.
For cultivators, the heart demon oath can be regarded as the heaviest oath, even if no one has the possibility of flying across the transitional tribulation period since the catastrophe of the Great Thousand Realms and Kyushu seven thousand years ago, and even after that, the cultivator's cultivation can not even cross the merger period, the so-called heart demon is still the great enemy of the cultivator's advanced promotion, once the heart demon cause and effect is provoked, every subsequent advancement will have a great life and death calamity, the fall may be extremely high, and it is said that serious cases can even affect the reincarnation after death.
Therefore, the monk will never easily make a demonic oath.
Xue Yun said this, although Wen Xian was inevitably shocked, and he was also very impressed by the courage of this young girl, but after thinking about it carefully, he also felt that it was a good way, and it was a guarantee for his family. Thinking like this, Wen Xian's gaze turned to Xiao Luo on the side.
Xiao Luo frowned fiercely when Xue Xian said the "Heart Demon Oath", glanced at Xue Yuan, sighed secretly in his heart, and then turned to look at Wen Xian and smiled slightly: "Senior Wen, junior is also willing to make a demon oath." ”
Wen Xian is also a cultivator, although his talent is limited and he stopped in the foundation building period and has no chance to impact the golden pill, but his vision is not bad in the past three hundred years. The pair of young men and women in front of them have already achieved such achievements at a young age, not only are they talented, but their origins may not be ordinary, such a person, even in the Kyushu continent where this monk can't even cross the merger period, the achievements in the future must be limitless. Such a person dares to gamble with his future with a demon oath, Wen Xian let go of some apprehension on the one hand, and couldn't help but sigh faintly on the other hand.
According to what this little girl said, what they wanted to know from themselves was just the introduction of another bigger thing, not to mention that what he knew was already a great thing, but only that the two of them were willing to make an oath with their demons without hesitation, which made him a little afraid to guess what the bigger thing was.
The two of them did what they said, and quickly made a demon oath in front of Wen Xian, and the three people present who were also monks could feel a mysterious and mysterious power in the body of Xiao Luo and Xue Yuan, who had made the oath, at the moment when the oath was completed.
After that, Wen Xian didn't prevaricate anymore, and after Xiao Luo personally set up an enchantment that could cover the living room and would not attract the attention of outsiders, he sighed and told what he knew.
Speaking of this, Wen Xian, who was already old, seemed to be covered with a dark shadow in an instant, and he looked a little gloomy.
"Two little friends...... How did you know about the Shangguan family?"
“...... I was lucky enough to meet a friend who also practiced ...... The Qingyun recipe of the Shangguan family. ”
"Are they friends of the same age?" Wen Xian sighed and closed his eyes: "Their family...... Sure enough, it's still ......."
"Senpai?"
“...... Almost two hundred years ago, in this Xiangcheng, our Wen family ...... I was fortunate enough to meet a family surnamed Shangguan who was also a monk. ”
Xue Yun was slightly stunned when he heard Wen Xian say the "Wen family", but Xiao Luo was not too surprised. It is not uncommon to return to their hometown in a low-key manner, just in case they change their names and surnames, even if the traces of their former acquaintances in Xiangcheng should have been almost cleaned up.
"In a discussion that year, I met Shangguan brother of the same age, Shangguan Ming, who had similar interests and temperaments, and gradually became friends. Wen Xian's gaze drifted a little away, with a slight smile of nostalgia on his face, revealing a sense of sadness and guilt: "Brother Shangguan is talented, knowledgeable and intelligent, and has helped me a lot. Later, I accidentally saw that he occasionally made some mistakes and instability in his cultivation, and I found out that ...... He has a spiritual root and a complicated problem. At that time, there had never been any people on the Kyushu Continent who had the problem of spiritual root refuge being able to cultivate smoothly, and I once wanted to persuade him not to gamble with his life...... Now that I think about it, Brother Shangguan was really sincere to me, and he later told me that their Shangguan family was compiling a book of auxiliary methods that could help those with mixed spiritual roots to practice smoothly, and his cultivation back then was the result of experimenting with the auxiliary methods that succeeded most of them. ”
Xue Yun asked softly, "Is that the Qingyun Formula?"
Wen Xian nodded: "Yes, the name Qingyun Jue was there at that time." ”
Xiao Luo sighed: "Being able to write the Qingyun Recipe, the Shangguan family was also a rare peerless genius back then, but ...... "If there is really such a talented ghost, how can the Shangguan family be nameless, and ...... in the future In such a situation?
Wen Xian shook his head and answered Xiao Luo's question: "The Shangguan family does not have a peerless genius...... Qingyun Jue is not the power of one person, it is the result of several generations of the Shangguan family, generation after generation of continuous study and exploration, and I don't know the painstaking efforts of several generations. ”
Xiao Luo and Xue Yun listened, and after being surprised, their hearts were filled with an indescribable sadness and unwillingness.
"Seven thousand years ago, there was a catastrophe on the Kyushu continent, and it is said that before that catastrophe, although the spiritual root was slow to practice, they would not lose their lives due to the fire and demons, and the spiritual root was the biggest obstacle for many people to step into the path of cultivation, and it was only after that catastrophe that there was. After the catastrophe, the monks could no longer continue to advance through the merger period, and after the hopelessness, some of the ancestors of the Shangguan family put their minds on the problem of the spiritual root and began to study the solution. Later, although the Shangguan family declined a little, this matter was passed down from generation to generation and never stopped. It wasn't until Brother Shangguan's generation that he finally saw the hope of being completed, who knows......"
Xue Yun frowned: "...... That Shangguan Ming senior, got to know Yuan Che?"
“...... Yes, just like me, Brother Shangguan also met Sanxiu, Yuan Che, who had just come to Xiangcheng to settle down at that time, during a discussion. Wen Xian's gaze was sharp for a moment, and the palms on the table were clenched tightly: "Yuan Che back then, he really looked funny, sincere, honest and motivated, Brother Shangguan...... Including me, no one was too defensive about him, and it didn't take long for Yuan Che to accidentally find out about Brother Shangguan and know about it...... Clarity. Now that I think about it, Yuan Che's villain, I'm afraid that he had already had dirty thoughts at that time, and I still remember that after that, he actively befriended Shangguan's brother, and went to Shangguan's house more and more frequently to ask for advice...... It's just that at that time, Brother Shangguan still regarded him as a friend and a good brother, and he was sincere and never fortified! I am afraid that at that time, he stole many contents of the Qingyun Recipe little by little silently!"
Wen Xian couldn't help but hammer the table hard, although he didn't use spiritual power, his strength was not small, the tea cups on the table were shattered, and the tea soup flowed all over the table.
But at this time, no one cares about this.
"That Yuan Che is also cautious, his movements are extremely slow, whether it is Brother Shangguan'......s family, or our friends, no one has ever thought about fortification, no one has found anything wrong, and he has been called a brother and a brother for nearly a hundred years! I also worshiped the wine and food, and wished this villain a good income from the retreat! Wait for him to get out of the retreat!" Wen Xian closed his eyes and sighed: "Not long after Yuan Che's retreat, my wife had something to do at her home in Cangzhou, so I asked my husband and wife to take their children over...... When he said goodbye to Brother Shangguan, Brother Shangguan specially took a ...... A copy of the Pure Essence Recipe that has just been completed with me allows me to safely practice for my son, who has spiritual root problems. At that time, Brother Shangguan was still smiling and talking to me...... They were already preparing to spread the Pure Essence Secret to the entire Kyushu, which was not only a merit to help many cultivators in the Kyushu Continent, but also a ...... It can leave a long-term reputation for the painstaking efforts of the Shangguan family for generations in the world, live up to the expectations of generations of ancestors and leave a better 'wealth' for future generations...... At that time, I also felt the selflessness of Brother Shangguan's family, and admired their long-term vision, leaving a good name and merit for future generations rather than tangible property, but who knows......"
Xue Yun lowered his eyes and sighed silently. It was this coincidence at this time that made Wen Xian's family leave Xiangcheng and Chenzhou, and ...... Escaped. But this Shangguan Ming, who treats his friends very sincerely......
At that time, Qingyun Jue was going to be written, but it had not yet been made public, or not many people knew about it, but Shangguan Ming gave Wen Xian a copy of the content of the finished book before it was made public, which was not only because he believed in Wen Xian's character, but also because of the deep friendship between the two. At this time, if Wen Xian is a villain like Yuan Che, he can use the Qingyun Recipe to make some use of it to make many benefits for himself.
But......
Wen Xian did not live up to Shangguan Ming's trust, but the other Yuan Che was not.
In fact, it's ridiculous to think about it, Wen Xian didn't do anything, but in the end he got Dacheng's Qingyun recipe first, Yuan Che secretly and carefully planned a hundred years of kung fu, and what he stole was not the complete content.
Wen Xian's eyes were already a little red at this time: "Three months after arriving in Cangzhou...... Suddenly, I heard that there was a stunning Qingyun recipe from Xiangcheng, Chenzhou, and the creator ...... What is it 'Yuan Che Zhenjun'! I only ...... at that time" As he spoke, Wen Xian was already a little choked, and the whole person looked a little older: "It's me who is cowardly...... I'm sorry Brother Shangguan...... Not only did he not dare to face Yuan Che, who had the Feng family as his backing at that time, but he didn't dare to tell the truth, and even ...... I didn't even dare to go back to Xiangcheng, I didn't dare to ...... Go and find out the news of the Shangguan family......"
“...... Senior ......"
Wen Xian raised his head, and muddy tears slipped from the corners of his eyes: "...... I can't advance anymore, it's the ...... I deserve."
In his life, he had a selfless and honest best friend, but he ...... He is cowardly and selfish, and he is not worthy of this sincerity.
