Chapter 832: Promise
Murong Water Village has been rebuilt and rebuilt, and the scale is now larger and more generous than before. In order to prevent a recurrence of what happened last time, a guard tower was set up in all four directions within a radius of 50 meters around the water village.
The watchtower is about two meters above the water level, and the scale is not small, the size of a single room. There is a sentry in each watchtower, and these people change shifts three times a day, closely monitoring the entire surface of Dianshan Lake 24 hours a day to ensure the absolute safety of Murong Water Village.
Murong Jue's boat swayed leisurely, drifting for several hours, and finally slowly approached the center of Dianshan Lake. When looking at those guard towers, Murong snorted disdainfully and said, "Those three old guys, are they old, do they really think that if they make such a thing, there won't be another thing that happened last time?" It's naΓ―ve. β
Murong Ziye was in a solemn mood, to be honest, he really didn't want to meet those three old men as a junior. Especially Murong Gao, who killed Murong Ziye's uncle Murong Mountain puppet, the entire Murong family knew about it.
For Murong Gao, how resentful Murong Ziye was, how much he wanted to kill Murong Gao, and wanted to avenge his uncle. It's a pity that he doesn't have that strength now, and he even has to pretend to be a good junior in front of Murong Gao.
Seeing the water village getting closer and closer, Murong Ziye's heart felt like he was being pierced by a knife, and he felt faintly painful.
"Midnight, what are you thinking?" Murong Jue seemed to notice that there was something wrong with Murong Ziye, so he asked.
Murong Ziye retracted his gaffe expression, smiled reluctantly, and said, "I didn't think about anything, but I just felt a little unaccustomed." β
"Hehe, Murong Water Village is the place where the descendants of the Murong family have lived in the past generations, to be honest, I am not used to it here." Murong Jue laughed softly, his eyes stared forward, and although he said that he was not used to it, his expression could not help but reveal a sense of nostalgia.
"Uncle, you left the family at the age of 15, right?" Murong Ziye suddenly asked about Murong Jue's past.
Murong Jue nodded and said: "When I was 13 years old, I was a damned person, and I survived for two years, and at the age of 15, I realized the fourth level of "Giant Spirit Divine Skill" by chance, and in the same year, I realized the fifth level of "Giant Spirit Divine Skill", and then I left the family. β
"At the age of 15, I realized the fifth realm of "Giant Spirit Divine Skill", and my uncle's comprehension is really unmatched!" Murong Ziye sighed with emotion.
You must know that for so many years, in the entire Murong family, how many people have been wandering in the third level of "Giant Spirit Divine Skill" all their lives? Those who can break through the fourth level, in the past fifty years, except for Murong Jue, no one has been able to reach such a state before the age of twenty.
Therefore, I have to say that Murong Jue does have a natural talent.
But Murong Jue is not an arrogant person, his heart is like water, and he can carry all things. It is precisely because of this that his strength will improve step by step and reach the peak of excellence.
Listening to Murong Ziye's admiration and envy, Murong Jue smiled faintly and said, "The realm I can reach, you can do the same, didn't I say it, your talent is not below me." You're like a piece of jade, but it's not carefully carved. And once it is carved, it will be a blockbuster. β
Murong Ziye nodded slightly, this is not the first time he has heard Uncle Murong Jue say this, he does not doubt his talent, and he also believes in Uncle Murong Jue's words, the only thing that he has no confidence in is that suddenly, the elder he once respected extremely has now become an enemy, and the psychological pressure is much greater than the actual pressure.
"I'm willing to teach you, not for the sake of the mountain puppet, but I don't want to bury your piece of jade. In the final analysis, I also have a family mission in my body, and the years are not forgiving, and the years have flickered, and I have spent a lot of years. Speaking of this, he sighed and said: "The Qian family has three masters from generation to generation, and the Wang family has been unique from generation to generation, but our Murong family is not as good as one generation after another, and after the 'Shanzi generation', there are almost no masters." Teaching you, in fact, can be regarded as compensation for some of my mission to the family! β
With that, he sighed softly, and there was infinite gloom in his voice. Listening to Murong Ziye's ears, he felt extremely heavy.
In the meantime, the ship has passed the guard tower and is approaching the water village.
The people in the watchtower, seeing the faces of the two people on the boat, were smoothly released, and at the same time, they also notified the three elders in the water village.
Before they got close to the water village, the three elders had already greeted each other. The faces of the three of them were not good-looking, because they had never liked Murong Jue very much, and the reason why they accepted him and recognized him later was just a last resort. The current Murong family really needs a powerful helper.
"Pounds!"
There was a dull sound of the boat scraping against a stake, and then a man from the water village jumped on board, held the boat in place with a rope, and then lowered the ladder from the boat.
Murong Ziye had been stunned on the boat, and when he saw the three major elders, especially the second elder Murong Gao, he couldn't help but tighten his fists, and boundless anger instantly rose in his heart.
Murong Jue knew his intentions early, immediately pulled him, and shouted softly: "You know the rules, don't mess around, if you ruin my hard work, I won't care about you in the future." β
When Murong Ziye heard this, he was shocked, and he secretly bit his lip unwillingly, and only nodded reluctantly when his lips were broken and bleeding.
At that time, the three elders greeted him.
"Who is my Dao, it turns out that it is you Murong Jue, why are you here this time?" The second elder was the one who was most unaccustomed to Murong Jue among the three elders, and he couldn't help but squeeze as soon as they met.
"Aren't you three welcome when I come here?" Murong Jue smiled faintly, the pipe in his hand lit a fire at some point, and he smoked without a mouthful, and the clouds were shrouded.
As the breeze rose, all the smoke from the pipes flew towards the three elders. They have never smoked, but they couldn't help frowning.
"Murong Jue, although we admit that you are from the Murong clan, but the important land of Shuizhai is a place where Murong descendants can come, if there is nothing to do, you should leave quickly." Great Elder Murong Gaoyan broke the stiff situation in time and said a word coldly.
"The three of you are too snobbish, can it be said that those who are not descendants can't enter the water village? According to this, the third elder Murong Gaobei used to be a member of the clan, and because of his extremely high strength, he became an elder. If you really want to talk about the distinction between the concubines and the concubines, then the three elders shouldn't stay here, right? Murong retorted.
ββ¦β¦ You! Murong Gaobei was dumbfounded, he originally wanted to ridicule Murong Jue for a few words, but before he could speak, he was already ridiculed by Murong Jue.
"Am I not right?" Murong Jue looked at Murong Gaobei coldly.
Great Elder Murong Gao Yan glanced at Murong Jue and Murong Ziye indifferently, and said, "Forget it, don't mention this matter again." To get back to the point, Murong Jue, what do you want to do when you come to Shuizhai this time? β
Murong Jue said: "The three of you are old, and you can't be used for a long time, the divine beast has run out for more than a month, if I don't find it back, I'm afraid you will never be able to find it." β
When the three elders heard this, they wanted to have a seizure, but when they heard the second half of the sentence, their curiosity instantly overshadowed their anger. Great Elder Murong Gaoyan asked word by word, "Have you recovered the Divine Beast?" β
"Can't I lie to you?" Murong Jue smiled coldly.
"Where's the Fox?"
"It's on the boat, I hope you will take it and treat it well, don't let something like this happen again, if it happens again, hmph, I won't help you again."
The three elders couldn't wait, and suddenly jumped onto the boat together, and lifted a curtain. Sure enough, a huge beast was lying in the cabin, the beast looked like a lion and tiger, and there was a kind of intimidating ferocity in the silence. The whole body is strangely blue, and the hair flutters upside down, floating like a flame, lifelike.
This beast is nothing else, it is a fox.
The Great Elder couldn't help but be overjoyed: "Sure enough, it's really it." β
Although the second elder was very dissatisfied with Murong Jue, he couldn't help but smile when he saw that there was really a fox lying in the cabin.
The third elder nodded and said, "Okay, the return of the fox to Shuizhai is an auspicious sign, which indicates that my Murong clan will definitely annex the world and dominate the whole world." β
"Hehe, the three elders are not in a hurry to do their dreams, there is one thing I want to make clear to you first." Murong Jue suddenly interjected from behind and said in a big way.
"What?"
"To be able to recover the fox, it all depends on the merits of midnight, he sacrificed with blood, so that the fox recognized the lord, from now on, I am afraid that he will have to succeed to the position of the patriarch."
"Hmph, how can a hairy boy take on this important responsibility?" Second Elder Murong Gao only glanced at Murong Ziye, and when he saw that his golden hedgehog head was both immature and unorthodox, he snorted disdainfully.
"There is no hair on the mouth, I can't do things well, I'm too young in midnight, and I'm afraid I won't be able to do it if I succeed as the patriarch." The third elder, Murong Gaobei, was also not optimistic about this.
The Great Elder also said: "For thousands of years, who can be the elder of the clan, who is not a person with a prestige? Although Murong Ziye is the son of Shan Zheng and can be regarded as a descendant, his prestige is not as good as his father's, and his martial arts are not as good as his uncle's, how can he succeed as the patriarch? β
"This is not a problem, since the Great Elder said that his martial arts are inferior to his uncle, if he can match or even surpass, then what should he say?" Murong Jue smoked a cigarette leisurely, as if the resistance of the three elders to this was something he had already expected. And he was calm and confident, and seemed to have a special certainty that he could do it.
"Huh? Can he compare to his uncle Murong Shanzheng? Counting it, you Murong Jue can also be regarded as his uncle and grandfather, right? Can you say such a big thing? Murong Gaobei interjected at the right time.
Second Elder Murong Gao also said, "Just by him, he can surpass the Murong Mountain puppet?" It's weird. β
The Great Elder also thought the same, smiled faintly, and said, "Murong Jue, with your status in the family, in fact, I should also give you some face, so let's set a deadline." Within the agreed period, if Murong Ziye can surpass his uncle, then we will agree that he will be the patriarch, and if he can't surpass his uncle, then you will not mention this topic again, and in any case, you must not interfere again. β
Murong Jue was calm and calm, and smiled slightly: "No problem, it won't take long, three months is enough." β
"Okay, three months is three months. We'll see you in three months' time! β
