Chapter 19: Who's Laying Out?
In the underground space of the Amazon, Dugu Jianming and Fu Xingkong had just walked outside the wooden house, and an old man immediately greeted them. This person is none other than Aoze.
"Second Elder, you're finally back. This must be Mr. Fu, right? Ao Ze walked quickly to Dugu Jianming's side and greeted.
"Come on, come on, I'll introduce you both." Dugu Jianming waved his robe and said, "Mr. Fu, this is the patriarch of our Purple Clan, Ao Ze." ”
"Proud patriarch, it's been a long time!" Fu Xingkong replied lightly, and the breath on his face was unremarkable. It seems that he still has a problem with the patriarch of the Purple Clan in front of him.
Dugu Jianming saw Fu Xingkong's expression in his eyes, and hurriedly interjected to break the embarrassing atmosphere, "Aoze, this is Mr. Fu." ”
"Hehe, I have heard of Mr. Fu's reputation for a long time. To be able to see each other today, it is really better to be famous than to meet, and it is better to meet than to be famous! The joy in Aoze's eyes was palpable. For Fu Xingkong, he was grateful in his heart.
"Don't even stand still, it's not too late to talk when you get inside." Dugu Jianming signaled to Ao Ze, and Ao Ze understood, and said, "Yes, yes, Mr. Fu, please." ”
The three of them entered the room and sat down, and the two waiters dressed as scholars placed the tea sets in front of the three of them in turn, and brought a pot of brewed green tea from the stove and slowly poured half a cup for the three of them. Dugu Jianming signaled the waiter to exit the house, and was not allowed to enter without an order. Then the waiter slowly exited the wooden house.
"Mr. Fu, come, the old man really deserves a toast to you. All words, in this cup of tea. Dugu Jianming picked up the teacup, raised it half-way to his chest, and slowly took a sip of tea at Fu Xingkong.
"Brother Dugu, between you and me, there is no need to say much, and if you talk too much, you will see the outside." Fu Xingkong took a sip of the teacup lightly, and glanced at Ao Ze from the corner of his eye.
Finish drinking.
Ao Ze leaned over to pour tea for Dugu Jianming and Fu Xingkong, and then slowly spoke, "Old Mr. Fu, what is the purpose of coming to the secret place of the Purple Clan this time?" Ao Ze's tone was respectful, obviously for Fu Xingkong, the oriental warrior who had cultivated his son, he sincerely felt a sense of gratitude in his heart. But there still seems to be a trace of doubt in my heart?
"Hehe, Proud Patriarch, Brother Dugu has already told me about the life experience of Xingying. The proud patriarch is ambitious, and the old man admires it! So when I learned the mystery of Xingying's life from Brother Dugu, the purpose of this trip was no longer important! Although Fu Xingkong spoke slowly, there was still a trace of essence in his eyes. There was also a hint of self-mockery in his tone. Obviously, there was an indescribable look in his heart about Ao Ze's original arrangement of the Torture Eagle in the East.
"Oh, that's it!" Ao Ze sighed earnestly, looked at Dugu Jianming, and after seeing Dugu Jianming nodding, he said slowly: "Mr. Fu!" At the beginning, I also had to do it, if Mr. Fu could put yourself in my position and think about it, I believe you would make the same choice! Are you right? Ao Ze looked at Fu Xingkong after speaking, and wanted to find some kind of affirmation from Fu Xingkong's answer. ”
"Yes! Also. Fu Xingkong let out a long sigh, paused, and said, "Now that the words have been clarified, we don't need to be too polite. I wonder how you got the Eagle to go to the East in the first place? ”
"Yes. It's a long story! Ao Ze picked up the teacup, put the cup on the teacup and slowly swayed, and took a sip of tea gently. His eyes were fixed on the outside of the wooden house, as if he was recalling the past more than twenty years ago.
After a long time, he said slowly: "Twenty-five years have passed in the blink of an eye. Time is really fast! Back then, the reason why I arranged 'Lingyun' [now Xingying] in the east was to hone his will and make him grow stronger, so that he could lead the entire Purple Clan in the future and lead the Purple Clan through the crisis and to glory. ”
"Although he has experienced too many ups and downs during this period, it has been an essential training in his growth. He has to get stronger, tougher. Because he is a member of the Purple Clan, because he is the son of my Aoze. Ao Ze said with a ruthless glint in his eyes, it seemed that for the young master who was going to rule the entire Purple Clan in the future, these experiences were a must. And rightfully so.
Dugu Jianming and Fu Xingkong did not interject, but listened lightly.
"I didn't intervene too much in his upbringing. Of course, one of the variables is you, Mr. Fu. So, I really appreciate your training and teaching of dogs. Without you, dogs wouldn't grow so fast. Ao Ze said, picked up the teacup, and respectfully saluted Fu Xingkong.
"Everyone will follow the trajectory of his life to go through his life. The intervention of outsiders maybe, more or less, affect the direction of his life, but the most important thing is himself. What path to take? What kind of life do you live? It's all up to him. So. I'm just playing a role in his life, what kind of life will he choose, past, present, or future? What kind of path to take? It's not something we can influence. ”
"So, I'll take your thanks. However, the road ahead depends on how he goes. ”
After Fu Xingkong finished his meaningful words, Ao Ze nodded. Turned to look at Dugu Jianming, paused, and said, "What Mr. Fu said is reasonable. ”
"You continue," Fu Xingkong took a sip of tea and motioned for Ao Ze to continue.
"Yes." Ozer nodded slightly.
"It was an afternoon twenty-four years ago, when 'Lingyun' was less than half a year old. After a long period of investigation, I finally set my sights on a farming family in H City, which is now Xingying's parents, who have no children and no daughters under their knees. So, after I explained the reason to them, they agreed to my request. And promised not to tell anyone about this, not even 'Ling Yun' himself. ”
"I promised them that when the time came, I would personally go and pick up 'Lingyun' back. After taking the corresponding protective measures, I handed over 'Lingyun' to them and returned to the secret land of the Purple Clan. ”
"I didn't expect that 'Lingyun' would actually meet you. And it has grown so fast and become so powerful. No, now I'm actually coming to my father's lair! I was thinking about how to tell him about it. Ao Ze smiled faintly after speaking, there were too many emotions mixed with his eyes, some surprised, some joy, and some doubts!
"There may be a lot more things you didn't expect!" Dugu Jianming replied lightly after Ao Ze finished speaking, looking outside the wooden house and not speaking.
"Yes. Oh, yes. This kid has given me so many surprises. He is worthy of being my proud son. Ao Ze said to himself with a relieved face. Obviously, I didn't hear another meaning in Dugu Jianming's words. And Fu Xingkong looked at Dugu Jianming, and he was also silent for a while.
And there is a strange thing that completely exceeds the calculations of Dugu Jianming and Fu Xingkong. They vaguely felt that the life experience of the Torture Eagle would not be so simple, but they just couldn't find what the problem was? How is the life experience of Xingying not simple? Even Aozawa himself didn't feel that something was wrong at this time.
However, if Ao Ze carefully recalls the strange incident twenty-four years ago, I believe he will feel a trace of weirdness from it.
Twenty-four years ago, half a year before Aozawa was looking for the farmer who fostered the torture eagle, an extremely strange incident occurred in Qinling, thousands of kilometers away from H City.
That night, dark clouds were gathering and the wind was blowing. The downpour of rain fell straight down from the sky like a column of water, directly smashing into every part of the land in the Qinling Mountains.
The mountain dwellers living around the Qinling Mountains accidentally heard an earth-shattering roar in their sleep, and then woke up from their sleep.
All the residents opened their doors and windows one after another and looked towards the Qinling Mountains, only to see that in the sky above the Qinling Mountains, a seven-colored circle of light pierced directly from the sky to the Qinling Mountains, and disappeared immediately after stabbing above the Qinling Mountains. It was as if the seven-colored aperture of light had penetrated into the Qinling Mountains.
The strange sight made all the residents who saw it speculate that it might be a sign of something big about to happen?
Then this strange incident was gradually forgotten
But what is even more bizarre is that half a year later, on the first night that Aozawa just stepped into H City, the same strange incident happened in the sky above H City, but the movement that night was obviously smaller than that of Qinling half a year ago. (http://.)。 And relatively few people know about it.
Aozer found out about this strange incident at the time, but he didn't take it seriously.
And on the night when Ao Ze arranged his son in the farmhouse in H City, when Ao Ze got into an extended Lincoln car and slowly drove out of the farmhouse compound, an old man in a robe appeared in the dense forest on the side of the farmhouse compound, and the old man in the robe could be vaguely seen in his arms, as if he was holding a child.
After seeing Aoze's car drive away for a considerable distance, the old man in the robe stretched out his hand, and then the entire village was suddenly plunged into darkness.
And it was in this darkness that Aoze's son was dropped. In other words, the son of Ao Ze who was fostered in the farmer's house has been changed into a child in the arms of the old man in the robe, and the child in the arms of the old man in the robe is the later Torture Eagle. And Aoze's son was taken away by the old man in the robe, and so far, I don't know where it is? I don't know, is it life? Or die?
After the bag drop event was completed seamlessly, the robed old man teleported into the dense forest at a speed that was incomprehensible to ordinary people.
Before leaving, the old man in the robe turned his head slightly to look at the light gradually rising in the farmer's house, and said lightly: "Although I can't deduce the mystery of your background?" But what must your presence portend? Everything is predestined in the dark. With that, the robed old man waved his sleeves and disappeared into the darkness
At the moment when the figure of the robed old man crossed the sky, he could vaguely see that his body seemed to be filled with the elegant smell of fairy wind bones.
