Chapter 338: True Identity
Not to mention jumping into the Yellow River, it is to jump into the magma, and this time I can't tell what is going on.
Xu Ning picked up the bucket of cold water from the side, poured it from his head to his feet, and after a few cold shivers all over his body, the object finally returned to normal. He wiped his body carelessly, picked up his clothes and put them on, and ran outside in a panic.
"Brother Ning, wait for me!" The clothes on Xiao Ke's chest were also wet, and he followed closely behind.
"Grandma, don't mess up, hurry back and change your clothes!"
"Where are you going?"
"Make things clear, otherwise Lan Ruyu will have to kill me!" Xu Ning turned around and ran towards the meeting hall at the gate of "Mengyunju".
"No, Sister Lan likes you so much, how can you be willing to give it up? It's possible to kill me! Xiao Ke muttered, turned around and went back to where he lived.
Xu Ning trotted all the way, walked through the bustling streets, and soon came to the place of the council chamber.
I came in a hurry yesterday, and I didn't notice that the sign of "Mengyun Ju Zhongyuan" had been hung outside, but the door didn't look like a strict place at all, a large group of children were running around nearby, and there were even vendors who had already put their stalls on the steps.
The prosperity and liveliness here was exactly what Xu Ning hoped to achieve, but at the moment he didn't have the heart to pay attention to these, and rushed into the hall with an arrow.
There is a world of difference between the inside and the outside.
The noise outside seems to be inaudible here, the floor is cleaned up, and the furniture is neatly arranged. It can be seen that Lan Ruyu is very attentive, even those naughty children. It's not going to be messing around here.
"Ruyu! Such as jade! ”
Xu Ning nervously searched around, and everyone in front of him made a detour to the back of the main hall, flashed through the shadow wall, and found that Lan Ruyu was beating a wooden stake fiercely.
"Bang bang bang!"
The linen wrapped around the stake had all been shattered, and Lan Ruyu seemed to feel incomprehensible, so she pulled out an iron rod from the weapon rack on the side and smashed it on the stake.
"Knock knock!"
If the stake had any feelings, it would have cried and called for mother.
"Ruyu!" Xu Ning glanced at it and really felt sorry for the stake. He stepped forward and stopped her hand. Chop off the iron rod and "Listen to me, things are not what you imagined!" ”
"I don't listen! You're a big pervert! I don't listen! Two big men actually do that kind of thing, disgusting to death! ”
Xu Ning tugged Lan Ruyu's arm. Half of the girl's shoulders were exposed. There is spring in front of you.
"Ahh Super big pervert. You still want to eat both men and women! ”
Lan Ruyu didn't even think about it, and a big-eared thunderbolt pulled out.
"Smack!"
Xu Ning didn't can't dodge, but he forgot to hide. I'm stunned just by looking at it! What the hell is going on today, the two women are showing up in front of themselves, is it peach blossom luck or peach blossom luck!
"Xiao is not a man, he is a woman!"
Xu Ning hurriedly let go and explained loudly.
Lan Ruyu was stunned for a moment, her expression was a little confused at first, and then her face slowly turned red, and her blurred eyes seemed to recall the scene she had just seen.
"Woman? Woman! A girl would do that kind of thing with you...... Wow, shameless! Lan Ruyu ran out like crazy.
"Hey, can't men, can't women? What the hell are you going to do? Xu Ning stood helplessly, and suddenly slapped his head fiercely: "Why do I have to explain this matter, does it have anything to do with Lan Ruyu?!" ”
Originally, even if he was really misbehaving, there was no need to explain it to her!
When Xu Ning was depressed, a gentle cough came from behind him.
"Coffin grandpa!" As soon as Xu Ning turned around, he saw that the old man in the coffin was dressed in a gray cloth robe, his face was covered with dust, and he looked very tired.
"Boy, did you bully Xiaoyu? If it really is, I won't spare you. ”
"Alas, it's hard to put into words! When did you come back?! Xu Ning hurriedly walked over to give a salute.
The old man in the coffin smiled lightly, although his expression was pretending to be relaxed, but he couldn't hide the tiredness on his face, and the shoes under his feet were dusty, and the edges were frayed.
"This is not the place to talk, if you have nothing to do, accompany my old man to the backyard to sit."
"It's okay, anyway, now Xiaoyu and Xiaoke, I can't explain clearly." Xu Ning said helplessly.
An old man and a young man came to the courtyard at the back, and the old man in the coffin washed his face and shook off the dust on his body, looking much more relaxed.
Xu Ning had already made a pot of tea, sat in the flower hall with the old man in the coffin, drank the hot tea in one gulp, and the old man in the coffin let out a comfortable sigh.
"Coffin grandpa, where have you been for so long?"
"There are some things that have to be dealt with, by the way, nothing happened to Meng Yunju, right? I think it's much more lively than the other day. ”
"There are a lot of things that happened, ...... last night" Xu Ning recounted his battle experience in one hundred and fifty ten. The old man in the coffin nodded as he listened, and finally said, "It seems that it is necessary to set up a guard team. ”
"What are you going to do with me yet?"
"Oh, I went to meet some old friends." The coffin old man said nonchalantly.
Xu Ning frowned, he didn't believe it, in fact, there were too many loopholes in this lie, and when he sat down, Xu Ning found that the coffin old man's legs looked a little inconvenient, and he was so close that he could feel that his martial veins were damaged.
He must have experienced a very tragic battle, definitely no less than the battle between himself and the salamander demon beast.
The martial veins were damaged, and they had already descended to the range of the general's realm, and although he could barely support it, he couldn't escape Xu Ning's eyes.
"Grandpa Coffin, if you can't trust me, you don't have to say it."
Xu Ning said coldly, picked up the teacup and took a sip, and was about to get up and leave.
"Alas, you kid, why is your temper so big!" The old man in the coffin grabbed Xu Ning.
"I think we can be regarded as friends of life and death, and we can be honest with each other about anything, it seems that I am self-inflicted."
"Sit down first, if you're not afraid of making trouble for yourself, of course I'll sue you."
Xu Ning frowned and sat down again, his face displeased.
"Okay boy, what do you have to be angry about? Haven't I ever inquired about your details? ”
"If you don't inquire and I don't say it's two different things!"
"Haha, it is worthy of being Xu Aotian's grandson, much more difficult to deal with than that old boy." The coffin old man laughed.
"Oh?!" Xu Ning was stunned for a moment and asked, "Didn't you say that you haven't checked my details?" How do you know that I am from the Xu family! ”
The old man in the coffin patted Xu Ning's head and said, "Hmph, do you think my old man is really old and confused?" The people surnamed Xu in Qingfeng City are almost a little involved with the Xu family, but I didn't expect that your status would be so high. ”
"What kind of identity do I have?" Xu Ning said with a smile.
"Now that I've made it clear, there's no need for me to hide it." The old man in the coffin slowly put away his smile and said, "Anyway, even if I don't say anything about this matter, you will find out sooner or later." So, I will tell you in advance, and it will also help you to act in the future! ”
"I don't understand why." Xu Ning scratched his head, uncomfortable with the sudden frankness.
"Look what this is."
The smile of the old man in the coffin disappeared completely, and he took out a small and narrow wooden box from his arms, only the size of a fan closed, the material was precious Zizhen wood, and the corners and corners were inlaid with gold to avoid bumping. It can be seen that the old man in the coffin attaches great importance to the contents of the coffin.
Xu Ning took the letter suspiciously and weighed it in his hand, it was not very heavy.
"It's ......"
"Open it and take a look!"
Xu Ning hesitated for a moment, and finally picked the mechanism on it, and after the square inch box was opened, it was just a slender and narrow metal strip with no rules at all.
The metal bar looks like it was made of gold, but it is very hard, and it should be made of an alloy such as bronze.
"It's ......"
Xu Ning felt familiar, but he couldn't remember what it was.
The brain suddenly became a pot of porridge, the more I looked at it, the more familiar it became, and the more familiar it was, the more I couldn't remember it, no matter how you look at this shape, it's a piece of scrap iron.
"Huh!"
Suddenly, a white light flashed in his mind, Xu Ning's eyes lit up, and as soon as he stretched out his hand, he summoned a key-shaped metal piece from the otherworldly space!
It's the size of a palm, but it's also very strange and irregular.
Compared with the metal pieces inside the box, there is no similarity, the only thing that makes Xu Ning feel familiar is that they are the same material.
"This, is this the key to the eight directions!" Xu Ning's eyes widened and he said incoherently.
"Specifically, a part of the Key to the Eight Directions." The coffin old man said calmly.
Xu Ning's eyes almost flew out!
The weight of this secret weighs, Xu Ning didn't have to think about it at all, anyway, in the entire Soul Continent, except for the Dongzhou Imperial Family, it was only known to the major families of Qingfeng City.
How could the coffin old man have a part of the "Key to the Eight Directions"?!
When Xu Ning looked at him in surprise, the key part in his hand suddenly merged with the key part in the box!
"This, what the hell is going on?!"
"They are one, and when they meet, they naturally reunite. If the eight parts are combined, it is the key to unlocking the mysterious treasure! ”
"This, this is the key to seal the treasure forged by the Elf King back then?!" Xu Ning raised his head and asked in surprise, "You, who the hell is it!" ”
"The old man's surname is Ouyang, and his name is Zhantian!"
Ouyang Zhantian!
Xu Ning's mind buzzed, he never expected that the old man who lived here as a coffin turned out to be the patriarch of the largest family in Qingfeng City! (To be continued......)
