Chapter 117

Hearing this, Chu Mo hadn't reacted yet, but Gu Linglin couldn't help but ask: "Dad, what is the matter, how is it still related to my sister's safety" Although Gu Linglin is still young and does not understand the world, she can also detect a trace of something wrong from Gu Wujian's expression and speech, which she has never seen on the latter's face. So he didn't dare to play anymore, and his delicate little face turned to a look of concern.

"This matter has to start with the grievances between our Yongcheng and Jicheng" Gu Wujian sorted out his thoughts for a while, and then said, "In the Cangyuan Ancient Forest, Chu Mo Xiaoyou has also seen Qin Zheng in Jicheng, so he must be able to guess some of the grievances between our Yongcheng and Jicheng."

Chu Mo bowed slightly, noncommittal.

"Actually, the grievances between our two cities are far more serious than what you can see," Gu Wujian said, "This kind of grievance is actually left over from the ancestors of our Gu family and the Qin family, and this matter can be traced back to before the founding of our Dongling Dynasty. ”

"Before the establishment of the Dongling Dynasty, this vast area was originally a chaotic land due to various factors such as geography, and our Gu family and Qin family were originally small forces on this land adjacent to each other. At that time, our two families were actually fighting again and again for one reason or another, and they were incompatible. Over the years, the two sides have been constantly clashing, and it can be said that there have been countless casualties, and the hatred has reached the point of irreconcilability. However, at this time, the situation gradually changed with the continuous development of the outside world."

Gu Wujian looked solemn, and a look of reverence suddenly appeared on his rigid face, "At that time, the ancestor of our Dongling Dynasty, the Dongling King, was born, with the supreme cultivation that overwhelmed the world, with the powerful force that swept everything, he began to sweep the Quartet, and after continuous hard work, soon after, a group of powerful cultivators gathered under his command to occupy Guyuan City, which is now the royal city Lingdu City, and began to claim the throne, forming the basic scale of a nascent dynasty. ”

"After that, the ancestor of the Dongling King, with the invincible power that had been rapidly accumulated, began to send his subordinates to begin to integrate the forces of the left and near, forcibly incorporated into his army, and began to formulate a new order, and our Gu family and Qin family were in the ranks of the incorporating at that time. Because of this, the grievances between the two of us have been suppressed for the time being. ”

"But after all, it has lasted for several generations of entanglements, how can the two sides really turn hostility into peace and harmony, it's just based on the majesty of King Dongling, and this contradiction is hidden deep in the bottom of my heart."

Then, King Dongling led his subordinates to start the southern and northern wars, and soon laid the foundation of eternal indestructibility, and the Dongling Dynasty was officially established. Then, the dynasty began to divide the meritorious ministers, and the ancestors of our Gu and Qin families were also regarded as brilliant under the command of the king of Dongling, and finally each got a city and was the lord of a city of moderation. Although the two cities of Yong and Ji were only small cities in the Dongling Dynasty, they were thousands of miles long, and they were all under the control of our two families, which could be regarded as a success. ”

"However, because of this, the old contradictions between our two families have not been resolved, and new contradictions continue to arise."

"Although our Gu and Qin families each dominate a city, it should be regarded as entering the water and not violating the river, but the location of the two cities of Yong and Ji is adjacent to each other, it is inevitable that there will be many contradictions in interests, although this contradiction is still under the suppression and control of the royal family, but because the dynasty implements the policy of ruling by inaction, this suppression is very limited, generally speaking, as long as the two sides are not too unscrupulous, violating the bottom limit of the royal family, generally speaking, the royal family is also turning a blind eye to our struggle, and even for some healthy competition, and will secretly encourage. In this way, under the premise that our two families already have a lot of grievances, through the accumulation of dozens or hundreds of years, the hatred between our two families has not dissipated because of this, but has intensified, and in recent decades, our two families have had countless disputes, and I don't know how many people have died. ”

Speaking of this, Gu Wujian couldn't help but sigh slightly. In this regard, he also felt deeply helpless.

Chu Mo was also embarrassed in his heart, although he had also heard Gu Linglin and Gu Qingwu talk about some of these entanglements, but he didn't expect that the accumulation of hatred between the two families would be so deep and almost irreconcilable. If it weren't for the strong suppression of the Dongling royal family, I am afraid that it would be an endless situation now, rather than simply dying some people.

The struggle of the family is so cruel, especially a force like the Gu and Qin families, which has long been involved in personal grievances that have already transcended the ordinary, and under the fight between the two powers, it is often accompanied by white bones. He already had a deep understanding of this when he was in Shunde City.

However, in this regard, Chu Mo, as an outsider, is not good at expressing his opinion on it, and this kind of thing itself cannot be said who is right and who is wrong.

I saw that the expression on his face did not change in the slightest, but he just maintained a posture of sitting upright, waiting for Gu Wujian to follow safely.

Gu Wujian said so much, it was just a foreshadowing, and he hadn't mentioned it yet

After a slight silence, Gu Wujian continued: "Over the years, both sides have suffered casualties, and it is not possible to talk about who loses and who wins, and in the end, the fight is just to fight for a breath, but things have developed to this generation, and the situation has gradually changed."

As he spoke, Gu Wujian looked at Gu Qingwu with a solemn face on the side and Gu Linglin, who had an innocent and lovely face, but a rare heaviness on his delicate little face at this time, and couldn't help but sigh: "Qin Nanlin gave birth to a good son."

Hearing this, Chu Mo was slightly stunned at first, as if he felt that Gu Wujian's words were a little out of touch with what he had said before, but when he chewed it carefully, he was very clear, and he seemed to have a faint understanding.

However, he still didn't interject, waiting for Gu Wujian to continue.

Gu Wujian said: "Qin Nanlin has two sons, Qin Zheng, you have already seen them. That kid is just a gentleman, not to mention dead, even if he is alive, it will have no impact on the situation of our two families. But Qin Nanlin also has an eldest son named Qin Ren, who is an amazing figure. Of course, Qin Ren is much inferior to Chu Mo's little friend," slightly complimented Chu Mo, and then continued, "But this Qin Ren can also be regarded as a genius, not only is he extremely talented in cultivation, but he is also good at dancing with long sleeves, and his wrists are also quite extraordinary, compared to him, they can't compare to light dancers." ”

Hearing this, a wry smile couldn't help but appear on Gu Qingwuyu's face, and her clear eyes like water couldn't help but stare at Chu Mo, which actually emitted a little strange light.

Gu Qingwu has a beautiful appearance, he is an extremely beautiful person, at this time, his eyebrows are slightly frowned, and his beautiful eyes seem to contain thousands of styles, which makes people can't help but shake their hearts, even Chu Mo is slightly stunned.

Coughing slightly unnaturally, he interjected for the first time, "But I don't know what this has to do with Miss Qingwu's life and death, no matter how powerful Qin Ren is, he doesn't dare to attack Miss Qingwu, this is different from ordinary battles, Miss Qingwu is the daughter of the city lord, her status is noble and sensitive, if Qin Ren really does this, the consequence will be to directly make the contradictions and hatred between the two families completely intensify and even explode, which should be not tolerated by the Dongling royal family" But it was to avoid the embarrassment of looking at Gu Qingwu. It's not that he can't understand Gu Qingwu's mind, but now that he is very sensitive to spirit, he is aware of the complex emotions contained in the latter's eyes.

Under that strange light, there is always an unattainable coldness brewing in it, turning back and forth, making people feel longed for but unreachable.

Gu Wujian said: "Obviously, Qin Ren naturally doesn't dare to make any moves, but under some special circumstances, it is difficult to guarantee that he will not make a secret move." As long as he does things neatly and neatly, without the slightest handle, even if I am sure in my heart, I can't do anything with him, if he really retaliates desperately, it will be our fault, and in the end, it will inevitably be true, and the entire Yongcheng will be on the cusp. ”

Chu Mo said: "But there are obviously not many opportunities like this. ”

Gu Wujian said: "Not much does not mean that there is none, for example, if Qingwu and them were killed in the Cangyuan Ancient Forest, he could completely blame everything on those ferocious and tyrannical demon beasts, and choose himself completely." Just like Qin Zheng and Qiu Snake's behavior, if it weren't for Chu Mo's little friend who came to your rescue that time, it might have been the little girls who died."

Chu Mo groaned: "It seems that now Qin Ren has found such an opportunity again"

Gu Wujian nodded, and said with a heavy expression: "Chu Mo Xiaoyou, have you ever heard of the Wanxu Mountain Range of our Dongling Dynasty" A pair of eyes suddenly looked directly at Chu Mo, and there seemed to be a fine light flashing there in his eyes.

Chu Mo was slightly surprised by Gu Wujian's sudden move, but he didn't say much, his demeanor was still calm, and he just shook his head slightly.

Gu Wujian stared at Chu Mo for a while, and saw that the latter's expression was as usual, and there was no abnormality, so he withdrew his gaze and said: "The Wanxu Mountain Range is the forbidden land of my Dongling Dynasty, it stands to reason that Chu Mo Xiaoyou is a person from other dynasties, I can't tell you about this matter, but this matter is related to the safety of the little girl and many young people in the house, so I can't take care of violating the ban, and ask Xiaoyou to promise me, don't leak the conversation between you and me about the Wanxu Mountain Range" with a solemn expression, looking at Chu Mo with burning eyes.

Chu Mo said with his head in his jaw: "Don't worry, what the city lord said today, the kid won't tell the fifth person" But he couldn't help but be a little curious in his heart.

Gu Wujian said with a smile: "I can trust Xiaoyou" The attitude of acting made Chu Mo can't help but admire, Gu Wujian can not be in charge of a city is not a fluke, whether it is determination and courage, it is not comparable to ordinary people.

Gu Wujian then said: "The Wanxu Mountain Range is an abandoned place left over from the Ancient War" His eyes were shining, and there seemed to be a scorching flame burning in the depths of his dark eyes.

Chu Mo was also shocked when he heard this. As his experience became richer and richer, he also had a preliminary understanding of the ancient battle ten thousand years ago, although he still didn't know what happened ten thousand years ago, but he knew that the people who participated in the battle that year were the most pinnacle existence between heaven and earth.

At that time, I don't know how many incredible strong people fell, and the fierceness of the battle could really be called the darkest moment between heaven and earth.

However, after thousands of ups and downs, everything back then has become a thing of the past, and for the current cultivators, the place where those peak powerhouses once fought is an endless treasure trove of crises and opportunities, such as the well-known primeval battlefield, although one step at a time, it is extremely dangerous, but every time it is opened, there are always countless powerhouses rushing into it one after another. Without him, just because in addition to the danger, there are endless opportunities.

You must know that although there were many powerful people in the ancient times, many of them left a lot of opportunities for later people in order to ensure the continuation of their lineage before the fall, just like the Nine Sections of the Ancient Treasure of the Nine Sections of the True Man and the Mixed Spirit Secret Realm of the Old Man, as long as you have enough luck and chance, even if it is just an ordinary person, you can find the key to the sky at any time. Not to mention the treasures and divine weapons left behind by those strong men. Although the souls of the strong are extinguished, many rare treasures have immortal essences, and if you get one at random, it will be of immeasurable value if you put it outside, and no one will not be tempted.

The Wanxu Mountain Range turned out to be an abandoned place left over from the Ancient War, so it was no wonder that Gu Wujian was so solemn. In today's world, as long as it is related to the word primeval, as long as it spreads, it will inevitably cause a bloody storm.

Gu Wujian continued: "The Wanxu Mountain Range is an area controlled by the Dongling Royal Family, and it is rumored that it is also the place where the ancestor of the Dongling King made his fortune, and it was there that the ancestor of the Dongling King rose back then. However, after thousands of years of development, the Wanxu Mountain Range is basically of little value except for leaving many dangerous places that are more dangerous than the Cangyuan Ancient Forest for people to experience. ”

Chu Mo said: "I'm afraid it's more than that" but suddenly he was blessed, and a bold guess suddenly popped up, and he couldn't help but be a little excited.

Gu Wujian glanced at Chu Mo with some surprise, and he didn't look sloppy, and said to himself: "Yes, it's not enough." Although the remnants of the ancient world in the Wanxu Mountains have basically been swept away by the Dongling royal family, after the first battle of that year, the crust of the Wanxu Mountains has undergone drastic changes, and combined with all kinds of strange changes, many strange places have been formed by chance. Those strange places have a function of breeding strange things, and that kind of strange things we call them Qingyuan Pearls. ”

Gu Wujian didn't hide it, he knew that even if he didn't say anything, Chu Mo himself would be able to slowly understand that if it really came to that time, it would make Chu Mo think that he was deliberately deceiving and lacked sincerity, and if he had the intention to be passive and slack off at that time, then Gu Qingwu and the others would be in danger.

"Sure enough, it's the Qingyuan Pearl," Chu Mo was secretly happy when he heard this. This is really a nowhere to find the iron shoes, it takes no effort to get it, Chu Mo originally thought about how to ask Gu Wujian about the Qingyuan Pearl, but he didn't expect Gu Wujian to take the initiative to tell him. And looking at the meaning of the latter, the thing he asked Chu Mo to do seems to be related to the Wanxu Mountain Range and the Qingyuan Pearl, which really wants to fall asleep and someone takes the initiative to send a pillow, so lucky.

Holding back the ecstasy in his heart, Chu Mo asked quietly: "I don't know what this Qingyuan Pearl is" He still doesn't know what this thing is

Gu Wujian explained: "The Qing Source Bead is a very strange treasure, and each Source Bead contains an incredible energy. It is a kind of power that is completely different from the Yuan Force, which can be absorbed into the human body, and every time an ordinary person absorbs a Qingyuan Bead into the body, an essential change will occur in the body, just like the transformation at the beginning of cultivation, but this change is many times stronger than the so-called transformation. However, it is said that this power is so violent and violent that it is difficult for ordinary people to bear it, and if it is forcibly absorbed, it will not only be useless to the body, but on the contrary, it may even be blown up at any time. Generally speaking, only some people with special physiques who can absorb this kind of power may be body refiners with strong bodies. ”

"It is said," Chu Mo said, "Don't you know"

"To be honest, I really don't know," Gu Wujian smiled bitterly and said, "Our Yongcheng can only be regarded as an ordinary city in the Dongling Dynasty, and we have not been able to touch this level in the past. ”

"It is also my hard work in the past few years that I have been given such an opportunity to enter the Wanxu Mountains this year. According to the usual practice, every few years, the Dongling royal family will recruit some young talents from the henchmen city to enter it, one is to collect the Qingyuan Pearl, and the other is to have the intention of tempering. As for the collected Qingyuan Pearls, ninety percent will be handed over to the royal family, and the remaining one percent will be rewarded to the participating cities as rewards. ”

"I originally thought that I had grasped this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, this time the Wanxu Mountain Range and his party would not only be able to get some Qingyuan Pearls, but if they performed well, they would even be favored by the royal family and absorbed into them for training, but who would have thought that Qin Nanlin's son Qin Ren didn't know when he would catch the Dingbei Palace, and he also won such an opportunity for him Jicheng."

Chu Mo said: "So you are worried that Miss Qingwu will be conspired by Qin Ren when she enters the Wanxu Mountain Range, and you want me to mix in the team of Yongcheng to help Miss." ”

"That's right," Gu Wujian nodded, "Although Qin Ren is young, his strength has already reached the realm of a human vortex, and among the younger generation of my Yongcheng, no one can compete with him from the light dance." Our two families have a deep grudge, if they meet Qin Ren in the Wanxu Mountain Range, they will definitely be targeted by him, plus he has his back to the Dingbei Palace, if he secretly bewitches a few words, Qingwu they will definitely be more auspicious. Therefore, I hope that Chu Mo Xiaoyou can help with this, with Chu Mo Xiaoyou's cultivation, let alone Qin Ren, even if he encounters someone from Dingbei Wangfu, he has the strength to retreat. Of course, I won't let Xiaoyou do in vain, as long as Xiaoyou can help with this, I will have a good reward for Xiaoyou's request."

"Brother Chu Mo, you can help your father and sister" Before Chu Mo could answer, Gu Linglin on the side had already grabbed Chu Mo's arm and pleaded softly.

Although Gu Linglin is still young, through Gu Wujian's clear and clear analysis, she also learned some of the stakes, thinking that her dearest sister was about to go on an adventure in the dangerous Wanxu Mountain Range, her heart twitched and scared, afraid that she would never see her sister again in the future. At this time, she is also a little bit of a master of the six gods, and the only thing she can think of is Brother Chu Mo, who is sitting next to her, who is powerful and also very good to herself.

"Brother Chu Mo, Linglin please" Gu Linglin's delicate and beautiful little face had a look of expectation, and her clear eyes like jewels sparkled, and I felt pity.

Chu Mo stroked Gu Linglin's little head with pity, turned to Gu Wujian, didn't talk nonsense, went straight to the point, and said his request frankly: "City Lord Gu, I want Qingyuan Zhu"

Gu Wujian was neither surprised nor hesitated, and nodded without hesitation: "Yes" It simply made Chu Mo a little confused.

Gu Wujian smiled, and continued: "The harvest you got on this trip, in addition to the ninety percent that you have to hand over to the royal family, half of the remaining Qingyuan Beads can be yours, if you have the ability to absorb it, what you get in the Wanxu Mountain Range can even be directly absorbed." For this, the royal family also acquiesced"

In fact, in Gu Wujian's opinion, it was reasonable for Chu Mo to make such a request, since he had told Chu Mo about the Qingyuan Pearl, he had already made such preparations. After all, this is what he asks Chu Mo for, and he must make the greatest sincerity, otherwise Chu Mo will not like it in his heart, and Gu Qingwu and the others will be in danger.

Although Qingyuan Zhu is important, it is far inferior to the lives of Gu Qingwu and others. Although Gu Wujian is the lord of a city, he is also a father at the same time.

Besides, Gu Wujian also has his own plans in his heart. He promised to give Chu Mo half of the amount, but he didn't specify how much, in fact, he left room for himself. This half of it is not possible to escape Chu Mo's own efforts, not to mention for anything else, Chu Mo has to work hard just for his own benefit. And with Chu Mo's strength, if he can help Gu Qingwu wholeheartedly, the harvest of this trip must be very considerable, even if half is divided in the end, the remaining half is definitely beyond the limit that Gu Qingwu himself can collect. In the end, Gu Wujian still earned it.

Of course, he didn't have to worry that Chu Mo would run away alone with Qingyuanzhu regardless of Xinyi. After all, the Wanxu Mountain Range is the forbidden land of the Dongling Dynasty, and the guards are beyond imagination, although Chu Mo's strength is good, it is impossible to leave alone without the relationship of the Gu family, and in the end, it is just a cocoon to bind himself, a moth to the fire, and kill himself, so that he can die faster.

"Okay, then it's decided" Chu Mo nodded, and didn't bargain. Although the task given to him by Fairy Yunyi was to collect ten Qingyuan Beads, Chu Mo was confident that he could get more, and if he knocked the number to death with Gu Wujian at this time, he would suffer a loss. If you have a cheap advantage, you are a pure bastard, Chu Mo is not the kind of bad person.

Seeing Chu Mo nodded, Gu Wujian's father and daughter were all secretly relieved, with his joining and help, not to mention how much benefit they could get in the end, at least they were a little more sure about the security issue.
