Chapter 451: Mountaintop Hermit

On the top of the smoky and cloud-shrouded Snake Mountain, rows of quaint and majestic buildings stand on it, and the scenery here is pleasant, and the picture of beautiful mountains and rivers makes people feel like they are in an outdoor peach orchard.

As soon as Liu Meng and the two young men stepped into this ancient building, they felt an extremely oppressive feeling suddenly rise from the bottom of their hearts. Liu Meng didn't dare to say anything, he knew that it was the feeling of being targeted by a super master in the ancestral hall. Because every time I come here, I almost always feel this oppressive and uncomfortable feeling. Although in the world under the mountain, with the title of Shadow Swordsman back then, Liu Meng's strength can be ranked among the masters, but here, he is not even a cat or a dog.

Fortunately, this is the ancestral hall of the Liu family, otherwise, he would not dare to come here if he was killed.

Passing through a long corridor of precious rosewood carvings, a group of three people came to a large hall covered with green tiles.

The main hall is open, and about two meters to the inside, a screen made of brocade silk is erected. The screen is of the translucent kind, and standing outside the door, you can vaguely see the blurred shadow inside.

Liu Meng walked to the door of the main hall and did not rush in, but took the two young people behind him to kneel on the futon outside the gate.

"Liu Meng, a descendant of the Liu family, is ordered by Liu Yuanlin, the eighty-ninth patriarch of the Liu family, to ask to see the old ancestor." Liu Meng leaned over and kowtowed on the ground three times. The two young men behind him were also sweating profusely.

After a while, from inside the screen, a middle-aged man with his hair coiled walked out. His steps were gentle, and every step seemed to be measurable. Like the sixth uncle at the archway, he is wearing a wide Hanfu and carrying his hands behind his back, just like a generation of martial arts masters in the movie.

"You're here!" The middle-aged man walked in front of Liu Meng and suddenly paused, and his eyes glanced at the three of them.

This person has an elegant and majestic momentum all over his body, as if he is a master of the world who does not eat the fireworks of the world, giving people a strong visual impact, and even more cowardice from the depths of his heart that he does not dare to compete with him. The two young people behind Liu Meng didn't dare to look up at all, and they didn't even dare to make too loud noises to breathe.

"Big brother" Liu Meng smiled bitterly, he looked up at the half-brother in front of him who was fifteen years older than him, but looked younger than himself.

"Hmm!" The middle-aged man who was called the eldest brother by Liu Meng just responded lightly, then withdrew his gaze, and then said indifferently: "The ancestor probably knows what happened. The ancestor first asked you to kneel here for an hour, to reflect on yourself, and then he will come to see you. ”

"Yes! The descendants of Liu Meng followed the teachings of their ancestors. Liu Meng kowtowed three times to the screen inside the gate again, and then knelt there without saying a word, motionless.

The middle-aged man took two steps back and stood by the gate with his hands behind his back, his eyes staring into the distance without knowing what he was thinking.

An hour passed like this. Except for the two young men who moved their kneeling numb knees from time to time, Liu Meng and the middle-aged man almost kept their movements motionless, as if they had been petrified for thousands of years.

Whewβ€”just then, a breeze blew. The middle-aged man's eyes immediately flashed with a gleam, and he immediately stretched out his hands and leaned over.

At the same time, a faint yellow fire suddenly lit up in the main hall, and then a faint smell of burning spice came from the back room.

Liu Meng subconsciously raised his head, but vaguely saw a figure sitting behind the screen.

"You are Liu Meng, the half-brother of Xing Boy?" A vicissitudes of life and majestic voice suddenly drilled into everyone's ears. If people still can't stop it, they want to bow and worship.

Liu Meng suddenly felt a strange feeling as if he had been stripped naked and thrown on the street, which inexplicably came from the bottom of his heart. He was startled at first, then immediately reacted, bowed his head and said, "Back to the ancestor, I am." ”

The voice behind the screen paused for a few seconds, then sounded again: "Hmm. Lucky boy always mentions you in my ear, and when I see you today, although my qualifications are far inferior to lucky boy, it's not too bad. If you are willing to break away from the world and devote yourself to cultivation for five years, I can make an exception to include you in the ancestral hall and study the authentic ancient martial arts classics of my Liu clan. ”

Liu Meng was overjoyed. He couldn't help but look up and cast a grateful look at the middle-aged man standing at the door with a blank expression. The ancestral hall of the Liu clan is the holy place that every Liu martial artist dreams of.

"Thank you ancestors for your appreciation. The descendant Liu Meng came this time in the hope of imploring the ancestor to send the seniors of the ancestral hall down the mountain to solve the crisis of being slaughtered by the Liu family. Liu Meng bowed his hand and glanced at the two young men behind him at the same time.

The two young men are the sons of Liu Haijun and Liu Weijun. They hurriedly lay on the ground and said with tears in their eyes: "Ask grandpa to make the decision for us, ask grandpa to make the decision for us." ”

"Hey-" A helpless sigh suddenly came from the screen, "I think back then, how heroic my descendants of the Liu family were, the enemies of Jin Ge Iron Horse, killing internal troubles, seizing imperial power, and leveling the world." Which generation is not an iron-clad hero, how did it get to the present, but it is not as good as the generation. You two dolls, still underage, how are they all weak and weak, on weekdays, in addition to indulgence and lust, even the minimum physical fitness has been forgotten. ”

This remark struck the hearts of the two young people. The two young men were red-faced and eager to find a crack in the ground to get into. Both of them are sixteen or seventeen years old, but due to the exceptionally superior family conditions, they are addicted to alcohol and women too early, resulting in their young bodies being hollowed out.

"This forehead back to the ancestors' words, the two of them are just individual phenomena. There are still many promising descendants in our clan. Liu Meng hurriedly said. In fact, he has long seen the physical condition of these two young people, as a modern person, he is naturally used to the problems of those rich second generations, but the ancestors inside are different.

"Humph! Hopefully, as you say. The majestic voice behind the screen sounded again.

"Ancestor. This time, our Liu family was targeted by an evil organization called the Sword of Punishment, and for several days in a row, they actually killed our two main lineage clansmen in a row, and asked the old ancestor to uphold justice for our Liu family. Liu Meng did not forget the purpose of this visit.

"When children fight, don't you want to alarm us old guys? Go down the mountain and tell Liu Yuanlin not to send people to the ancestral hall because of this kind of thing in the future. ”

"But, Ancestor" Liu Meng wanted to say something, but was blocked by the middle-aged man at the door.

"The ancestor said, go down the mountain." The middle-aged man's expression was like a thousand-year-old well, without a trace of waves.

"Yes!" Liu Meng sighed unwillingly, and finally made a gesture in the direction of the main hall, and then left with the two young people stupidly.

"Liu Xing!" After Liu Meng left, the sound of vicissitudes sounded again behind the screen.

"In!" The middle-aged man at the door hurriedly bowed his head and answered.

"Tell me if it's right or wrong for me to do this."
