Chapter Fifty-Eight: The Eastern Capital, the Ancestral Mansion
Luoyang, the thousand-year-old capital.
At the beginning of the Xia Dynasty, more than ten dynasties successively made the capital in Luoyang, and the first female emperor of China also chose to settle in this imperial capital.
The moment he stepped on this ancient city, Wu Liang couldn't help but burst into tears.
"Father, the child is back!"
Wu Liang murmured softly, the person he was most sorry for in this life was not Tong Bingyao, but his old father.
Henan Yin, the eastern capital, is the real master of Luoyang, but because of the Tong family's refusal to marry, he is regarded as the laughing stock of the whole world, and even the Son of Heaven joked in the court, "Self-cultivation Qi family rules the country and equalizes the world, Henan Yin is not even able to govern the family, is he still capable of managing the eastern capital?" ”
The old father, who had been strong all his life, was angry and angry, and he died in just a few days, leaving Wu Liang heartbroken and broken.
On the day of his father's departure, Wu Liang, the former gentleman, turned into a bloody Shura feared by everyone in the monastic world, Shao Yin Tong's family, the Phantom Sect of the Great Sect of Cultivation, and thousands of lives were buried for his father.
But what's the use of all this, so far, the Wu family of Luoyang has broken off the inheritance in the secular world, and only the bloody hand Shura who is famous in the cultivation world remains.
"Tong Bingyao! I don't regret it, I don't regret it! My father died because of you, and it is only natural for the deity to kill you, so why regret it! ”
Wu Liang roared in a low voice, his eyes were blood-red, and his body exuded a terrifying evil aura.
Huang Laosan, who was following behind Wu Liang, couldn't help but shudder, his eyes were full of fear when he looked at Wu Liang, and he resisted fear and said in a trembling voice: "Master Wu, take care of your body." ”
Wu Liang's eyes flashed away, he closed his eyes to calm the killing intent in his heart, and said lightly after a long time: "You go to talk to the Wu family, just say that I want to buy his qi tonic grass, and I will go alone." ”
"Master, why don't I accompany you?" Huang Laosan's voice was apprehensive, Wu Liang had been a little abnormal since yesterday.
He was a little worried, Luoyang is not Longxi, not to mention the major families in Nanhe, the major families in Luoyang alone should not be underestimated.
Wu Liang waved his hand, walked straight forward without replying.
Thousands of years have passed, even if Luoyang is well preserved, it has undergone earth-shaking changes from back then, walking on the familiar and unfamiliar ancient road, Wu Liang's restless heart slowly calmed down.
With the vague impression in his memory, Wu Liang walked forward slowly, maybe it was time for him to go back and take a look.
This is the place where he was born and raised, this is his homeland, and his father is buried in this place of glory and shame.
The Wu family in the eastern capital, although it is not as good as the family gatekeeper, but the Wu family has been an official for generations, guarding Luoyang for nearly a hundred years, and it is also a wealthy clan in the eastern capital.
However, in just a few days, the head of the family died of illness, and the young head of the family became the devil that everyone feared, and the huge Wu family disappeared overnight, which is really sad.
Wu Liang laughed self-deprecatingly, and did not stop until he reached the door of a large mansion.
Standing in front of the quaint and heavy vermilion gate, this moment seemed to turn back time, and there was a noise in front of the door.
Wu Liang's eyes were blurred, and he vaguely heard someone shouting: "Wu Shao, why did you go out to see Miss Tong again?" Be careful, Lord Yin knows that he will hit your board! ”
"Young master, tomorrow is your wedding day, it's better not to go to Tong's house recently, the old man will definitely be angry if he knows it."
"Young Master......"
"It's out of the water! Wu Mansion is out of the water, save people! ”
……
The voice is getting farther and farther away, and Wu Liang, who is far away, can't catch up, when he opens his eyes, the vermilion gate is still the same, but the door plaque is no longer the "Wu Mansion" of the year.
"This is not the Wu Mansion, not my home, the fire that cut off the inheritance of the Wu family back then, and also cut off my thoughts." Wu Liang muttered, the fire was put by him himself, and the Wu Mansion had already disappeared with the fire that shook the entire Luoyang.
Shaking his head, Wu Liang looked confused, turned around and left, now it is no longer the Tang Dynasty, everything is already wrong.
"Hey, boy, what are you doing?"
The closed vermilion gate was suddenly pushed open, and an old man with a hunched waist and a face full of vicissitudes suddenly called Wu Liang.
Wu Liang glanced back at him, his brows suddenly furrowed, and he said lightly: "Passing." ”
The old man didn't care about Wu Liang's coldness, coughed a few times, and said with a smile: "The young man's surname is Wu, right?" ”
Wu Liang's eyes narrowed, and his voice gradually became colder, "How do you know Lu Dao?" ”
"Hehe, don't be so nervous, young man. The Wu family in Luoyang has been inherited for nearly 1,000 years, and in recent decades, people have come to the Wu family from time to time to recognize their ancestors and return to their ancestors. This house is the ancestral home of the Wu family, and the first thing every Wu family member does when they come to Luoyang is to come here to find their roots......
Before the old man finished speaking, Wu Liang's eyes suddenly appeared, and he said angrily: "What is the Wu family in Luoyang!" How dare you lie to me! How could this be the ancestral home of the Wu family! ”
The old man was not angry, and said with a smile: "You don't believe it? Who is a little older in the whole Luoyang does not know, the Wu family has been based here for thousands of years, and every generation will come to repair the ancestral house, and this house is indeed the Wu family. Even the national clean-up industry a few decades ago admitted that the house belonged to the Wu family. ”
Wu Liang's brain rumbled, inherited for thousands of years, the Wu family in Luoyang, how could it be!
That day was the fire he set with his own hands, and it was he who buried the entire Wu family's ancestral business with his own hands, how could there still be a Wu family?
Is there such a coincidence? It happens to be at the original site of Wu Mansion, the main family name is Wu, and it has been inherited for thousands of years, what is this for?
"Zhidetang Wu family?" Wu Liang's expression gradually softened, and he asked a question that he was concerned about.
The old man's face moved, he glanced at Wu Liang again, nodded and smiled: "It's Zhide Hall, it seems that the young man is really from the Wu clan, do you want to come in and worship your ancestors?" ”
Wu Liang's eyes moved slightly, ancestor, who is whose ancestor is not certain.
However, the old man invited, and Wu Liang also wanted to figure out some things, so he didn't refuse, and walked directly to the mansion with the old man.
Although the ancestral house of the Wu family is no longer inhabited, it is very clean and there is no sign of decay.
The towering trees in the courtyard seemed to tell the long years of the Wu family, and Wu Liang didn't say a word since he came in, as if he had been here countless times, and walked straight to the mansion in the center.
The trembling old man didn't seem to be surprised, and followed Wu Liang forward with a smile, and in an instant, the two of them reversed the host and guest, and the one who led the way became Wu Liang.
It wasn't until he walked to the door of the ancestral hall with the three big characters "Zhide Hall" hanging on the door plaque that Wu Liang turned around and said, "Why did the Wu family's ancestral house abandon it?" ”
"Hehe, don't young people nowadays like high-rise buildings? A few old immortals of the Wu family are also afraid that those little bastards will spoil the ancestral house, not a few years ago, a villa area was built in the new city, and the Wu family moved there to live, and no one came to this house when they worshiped their ancestors. ”
The old man knew everything, as if Wu Liang was not a stranger he had only met once.
"And who are you?" Wu Liang was not in a hurry to enter the ancestral hall, but asked with interest about the origin of the old man.
This Wu house is not really poor and white, Wu Liang doesn't need to look at the antique calligraphy and paintings in the Lu Dao house, Nanmu furniture is worth a lot of money, if it is not for the close relationship with the Wu family, who can rest assured that an outsider will guard the ancestral house of the Wu family.
The old man squinted and smiled, and he didn't know where he took out a cigarette gun, and took a few sips before coughing: "Old man, he can be regarded as half of the Wu family, but the generation is older than the old immortal of the Wu family, and those old immortals have to shout uncle when they see the old man." ”
"The son-in-law of the Wu family?" Wu Liang showed a hint of banter on his face, and said with a light smile: "The Wu family will rest assured that the ancestral house will be handed over to outsiders, and the son-in-law's thing will not be reliable." ”
"Ahem, ahem!"
The old man coughed dryly a few times, and glared at Wu Liang angrily, "If you see it, you can see it, what kind of Tai Chi is playing with the old man." The Wu family is a martial arts family, the old man is stronger than them, and his reputation is greater than theirs, and helping them guard the door can be regarded as worthy of those old immortals. ”
Saying that, the old man also asked with interest: "Little guy, what kind of strength do you have?" The old man thought he had unparalleled discernment, but he didn't see it. ”
Wu Liang smiled lightly and did not answer, and stepped straight into the Zhide Hall, and said secretly in his heart: It seems that the strength of the Wu family is not good, an old man of the third order of the innate can sweep the Wu family, and the reputation of this thousand-year-old family is also ruined.
Of course, if the Wu family hears Wu Liang's heartfelt words, I'm afraid they will scold, you really think that you can't succeed in congenital cabbage.
In the entire Longxi area, there was not even one innate before Wu Liang appeared, and even if there were two innate first-order now, it was not the opponent of this old ghost. The Wu family can have innate third-order powerhouses, and even the people of the Shenwu Department dare not be presumptuous in Luoyang, which shows the strength of the Wu family.
But these have nothing to do with Wu Liang, entering the ancestral hall and looking at the dense tablets on the table, Wu Liang's head was dizzy.
"First test the spiritual position of Wu Derong" and "The spiritual position of the ancestor Murong of the Wu family"
……
Looking at it line by line, Wu Liang did not stop at the tablets in modern times, and swept his gaze to the slightly dim tablet in the middle row.
"The Divine Throne of Ancestor Wu De"
As soon as he saw this name, Wu Liang immediately cried and laughed, and muttered: "It turned out to be you little bastard, and I thought that the Wu family really had descendants." ”
Wu De, Wu Dashao's scholar back then, his ancestors and grandchildren were all domestic slaves of the Wu family for four generations.
One Wu Liang and one Wu De, the master and servant complement each other. In the past, when Wu Dashao burned the Wu Mansion, although he was red-eyed at that time, he did not treat the kid who had been with him for many years, and the wealth of the entire Wu family was given to that guy except for the one that was burned.
He originally thought that Wu De must have gone incognito to find a place that no one knew to be a rich man, but who knew that this guy actually returned to Luoyang to rebuild the Wu family.
Wu Liang was also relieved to understand this, he was really afraid that the Wu family was impersonated by someone in the past and borrowed his Wu family's name to do something bad.
Now that it's Wu De, it's no different from the Wu family, and when he left at that time, this guy was willing to risk his life to return to Luoyang, which can be regarded as worthy of himself.
"Little guy, in the future, the Luoyang Wu family will officially be your family, young master, I am a member of the Wu family of Tianshen Mountain, and from now on, the ancestor of the Luoyang Wu family will be you."
After Wu Liang finished speaking, he slashed at the tablet next to Wu De that said Wu Liang, and the old man who had just entered the door was suddenly startled, and hurriedly shouted, "Stop!" ”
