Chapter 222: Jiang Chen's Purpose
The Meng family.
Meng Guan swallowed a pill, stretched his legs together, closed his eyes and meditated and breathed, the moonlight outside the window shone on his pale face, for a long time, but he saw him open his eyes dejectedly, and sighed.
On that day, the Mei, Chen, and Li families suddenly besieged, and the Meng family did not notice the abnormality in advance, and it was also a dereliction of duty on his part as the patriarch! In order to delay the time to open the formation, he fought against the other three masters alone, although he finally achieved his goal and fled back to his life, but in the end, it was abolished, and his dantian tendons and veins could no longer absorb the aura.
He has been sitting in the position of the head of the Meng family for nearly a hundred years, in the past hundred years, no matter how hard he has worked hard and worked hard, the Meng family is still going downhill inexorably, most of the children in the family are mediocre, and the resources left by the ancestors are about to run out.
But no matter what, he can't let the Meng family perish in his own hands!
Yesterday, because of the disagreement between the matter of saving people and many disciples, he didn't go out again after returning to the courtyard, but he saw the wonderful fierce battle in the air, and at the same time he was shocked in his heart, there was more joy and hope, the Meng family may really be saved!
Meng Jing finally stood up, staggered to the side of the bed, adjusted the small amount of spiritual power in the group, and played a string of spells, only to see the bed suddenly sink downward, revealing a dark hole.
Changxing came out of Meng Duo, the family had arranged a guest house for the three of them, Changxing asked Lin Tianyang and Zhao Yu to go to rest first, Lieyang Dao and Mei and Chen families suffered heavy losses, and they would not make a comeback so soon.
Look at the sky, there are less than two hours, the sky should be bright, Changxing simply left the guest courtyard and walked towards Wisteria Garden, if this encirclement and suppression, there is really the support of Jindan monks behind him, within three days, he will definitely come again, when the time comes, I am afraid that the Meng family will really not be able to hide, Changxing sighed, I hope she just thinks too much.
Although Changxing doesn't have much affection for the Meng family, this doesn't mean that she is willing to see the Meng family suffer, after all, her father is also a child of the Meng family, and she was killed for her in the first place, and if her father is still alive, he must not want to see her family perish. Changxing sighed lowly: All this she did should be regarded as repaying her father for what she did for her.
The wisteria garden is still quiet and old, Changxing applied the dust removal trick, rolled up his sleeves again, wiped it with a rag, and waited for the sky to be white, the wisteria garden finally restored the window brightness and cleanliness, the morning breeze blew on the face, and the wisteria flowers swayed with the wind like wind chimes.
Changxing half-lay on the rattan chair under the wisteria trellis with her eyes closed, thinking in her mind: for a while, when the sky is bright, she plans to go to pay homage to her parents. Before she fell into the Flying Immortal Trench, her mother Li Chuyan was already dead, and the corpse must have been returned to the Meng family for burial, but there were too many things to do this night when she came back, and she didn't bother to ask.
A twelve- or thirteen-year-old girl poked her brain at the gate of the courtyard, as if she wanted to come in but didn't dare to come in.
"Come in. Changxing's tone was soft.
After waiting for a while, the little girl stepped over the threshold and walked in: "The patriarch sent me to invite you over." ”
Meng Guo was dressed very solemnly, sitting in a precarious position, and Changxing saw the salute,
He asked, "I wonder why the patriarch summoned me?"
"You sit down first. Meng Guo seemed to have lost all his spirit overnight, aging and vicissitudes, and his voice was full of exhaustion.
Changxing looked at his complexion and knew that his time was short. She has no good impression of Meng Guo, she is snobbish and patriarchal, but he puts the interests of the family first in everything and has done his best for the family all his life, which is really admirable.
Seeing that Changxing had taken his seat, Meng Jingcai said, "I called you here today because I want to discuss some things with you." ”
"The Meng family has been passed down for nearly 10,000 years, and the ancestors were originally in the area of the Fangzhu Mountains, but then the family fell into the middle of the road, so they had to leave the Fangzhu Mountains with abundant spiritual energy and come to Xiushui Mountain......"
"When the ancestors of the Meng family built a mansion here, they not only set up a large array, but also left a batch of treasures, but after so many years, the treasures have long been exhausted, but there is one thing that only the patriarchs of the past generations know. ”
Meng Guo said, took out a jade box from his sleeve, Changxing saw the material of the jade box, her heart was pounding, she could be sure that what was contained in this jade box should be the fragments of the Shura knife!
"The Meng family has reached a critical juncture of life and death, and today I want to entrust you with one thing. ”
Changxing looked at the jade box that was pushed over by Meng Kuang, his brows furrowed, where is this discussion, it is obviously a hard stopper.
"Don't underestimate this jade box, the things contained in it have huge energy and have the power to destroy the world. Meng Jing gasped in a low voice: "And the ancestors' legacy, the things in it are related to the ascension, but my ability is limited, and I can't understand it at all, you are deeply blessed, maybe you can understand it." ”
This point of Changxing couldn't be more clear, but this fragment is useless to ordinary people, the aura on it is complicated, and ordinary people can't even touch it.
"I want this thing. Meng Changxing picked up the box, didn't open it, and looked at Meng Quan: "If you have any requirements, mention it." ”
"Protect the Meng family. ”
"I can only do my best, if there is really a Jindan monk behind them, there is nothing I can do. ”
Meng Jing frowned: "Your current situation, there should be a high-level monk behind you, why don't you invite ......"
Before Meng Guo finished speaking, Changxing had already interrupted coldly: "No." ”
"Why?"
"I don't want to. Changxing's eyes were firm, and there was no room for anything.
The old and the young were like angry, no one let anyone, staring at each other.
Meng Guo stared at Changxing for a long time, suddenly defeated, and nodded: "Then it's up to you, it's okay not to come forward, but in case the Meng family's defense is breached, can you take some elite disciples with you when you leave?"
"I promise you. Changxing nodded happily and said, "Does the patriarch have anything else to do?" If there is nothing to do, I want to go and worship my father and mother. ”
Meng Jing nodded: "It should be so, your mother's tomb is next to your father's grave......"
"Clothed mound?" Changxing exclaimed, "My mother's body ......"
"At that time, the news of your mother's death was reported by a disciple sent by Qingfeng Zhenren, but no body was delivered, saying that it was missing
Finish. ”
"Gone?" Changxing frowned, from the death of his mother to the time she fell off the cliff, it was only a few breaths before and after, when she fell off the cliff, Gu Chengtian had already arrived, he should have seen his mother's body, but why did it disappear?
People who cultivate the truth do not pay attention to the physical body, once the body falls, the physical body is generally not left, although Changxing does not have to stay, but the mother's body disappears, no matter how you look at it, it is weird.
Changxing wanted to ask again, but someone came, and Meng Shan came back.
Meng Kuang's brows furrowed, and he muttered in his heart: What is she doing when she comes back at this juncture?
Changxing didn't want to see Meng Shan, so he got up to say goodbye, and as soon as he walked out of the door, he heard a voice sound: "Hmm? I just came to Xiao Changxing and I'm leaving? It seems that we came unfortunately!"
Although this voice carried a hint of banter and cynicism, it was very gentle, but when it fell on Changxing's ears, it was like thunder, and the person who came was Jiang Chen!
A pair of beautiful people walked in the distance, the man was handsome, the woman was beautiful, it was Jiang Chen and Meng Shan, the pace seemed to be slow, but it was already at the door of the lobby in an instant.
Meng Kuang's expression was solemn, but after a moment, he was already smiling again, and greeted him, and said: "The seventh prince is coming to the cold house, it is really brilliant!
Jiang Chen smiled and nodded: "It was Shan'er who said that she wanted to come back and see, and I had nothing to do, so I accompanied her." ”
The smile on Meng Kuang's face was even worse, and he hurriedly went inside, Jiang Chen took a step forward, looked back at Changxing who was standing on the side, and said with a smile: "Long time no see!"
Changxing replied lightly: "It's been a long time!"
The last time they met was in the Heavenly Artistic Conception, in order to compete for a piece of Shura Knife Fragment, the two fought, Jiang Chen was forced to resume his cultivation, and was banned and rebounded from the Heavenly Artistic Conception, and Changxing was also seriously injured by Jiang Chen and almost lost his life, since then, Changxing has never seen Jiang Chen again.
However, Changxing knew very well that they were absolute enemies.
Jiang Chen knows the secret of Changxing's Hongmeng vitality, and Changxing also knows the secret of Jiang Chen's fellow Dao Demon practitioners, their goal is the same, they all have to find the Shura Sword fragment, so there are irreconcilable contradictions between them, and they are destined not to be friends.
As for what Jiang Chen said, the reason for accompanying Meng Shan back, Changxing instinctively felt that it was not credible, there was no other reason, Jiang Chen came too coincidentally.
If she didn't have this fragment, she could still believe it with one eye and one eye closed, but as soon as the ancestral fragment of the Meng family appeared on the front foot, Jiang Chen came to the door on the back foot, making her believe that Jiang Chen was really accompanying Meng Shan to 'go back to her parents', then she would rather believe that the sun came out from the west!
Seeing that the patriarch had no intention of avoiding himself, Changxing simply followed.
Meng Shan was shocked from the first time she saw Changxing, she saw Changxing drink tea containing 'snake gall grass', she was very sure that under Meng Changlei's whip, Meng Changxing was really disfigured, but why was her face still as flawless as a baby? Could it be that the disfigurement back then was fake?
When Changxing saw Meng Shan's expression, she knew that she was puzzled, and suddenly raised her head and smiled at Meng Shan: "Aunt Thirteen, this is in my face."
Do you want to see a hole come out?"
Meng Shan's eyes flashed with annoyance, and he subconsciously looked at Changxing Xiuwei, but found that he couldn't see through it at all, and couldn't help but be shocked: Could it be ...... She's already laid the foundation!
"I haven't seen you for a long time, Changxing is getting more and more beautiful, so I can't take my eyes off. Meng Shan suppressed the emotions in his heart and greeted with a smile: "It's just that I can't see through your cultivation." ”
Changxing was too lazy to be hypocritical with Meng Shan, ignored her temptation, and looked at Meng Guo and Jiang Chen at the top of the head.
Meng Guo greeted him for a while, and gradually got to the point: "I don't know if the seventh prince suddenly arrived today, but what did you tell the Meng family to do?"
Jiang Chen smiled slightly, and said to Meng Jing: "I have heard about the Meng family, and I am here to help." ”
