After the anger, the old beggar's face gradually softened, and then he sat on a broken chair with some weakness, and said slowly: "Gongsun Xu, is the traitor of my Wen family, back then, our Wen family was tragically destroyed, and it was that Gongsun Xu who was killed. ”

As soon as these words came out, Chu Feng and Feng Yuerong were surprised, it turned out that the tragedy of the Wen family back then was actually done by Gongsun Xu.

Then, Chu Feng brought two small stools made of simple wooden stakes from the side, and sat opposite the old beggar with Feng Yuerong.

After sitting down, Feng Yuerong asked, "What the hell is going on, why did Gongsun Xu do this?"

The old beggar's eyes suddenly filled with tears, as if there was an endless sad past, which made the old beggar tremble when he thought about it.

The old beggar sighed heavily, and said slowly: "Back then, our Wen family was also a famous family here, my grandfather was Wen Baiyan, who had reached the realm of the Sword God back then, and later, a person came from other places, and when he came to us, he was seriously injured, and was later rescued by my grandfather, and after that, he stayed in our Wen family and became my grandfather's closed disciple, this person is Gongsun Xu."

Gongsun Xu's talent is very high, among the disciples and descendants of our Wen family, he is also one of the best, my grandfather also values him very much, and Gongsun Xu is very smart and sophisticated, in order to learn my Wen family's holy rank exercises, at the beginning, he has been working hard, and his relationship with my father is also very good, and he is respectful to everyone, but he didn't expect that all this was pretended by him.

After two years, Gongsun Xu has been recognized by my grandfather and everyone, since then, my grandfather began to personally teach him the holy rank exercises of our Wen family, Gongsun Xu also learned very fast, in just ten years, from the realm of the Sword Emperor, broke through to the realm of the Sword Immortal, and his strength has even surpassed my father, among the descendants of our Wen family, he is already one of the best.

Later, when my grandfather was practicing, Gongsun Xu and my father were outside to protect the Fa, that is, at that time, Gongsun Xu saw my grandfather's heart of the emperor, and he was also greedy in his heart, and in order to get my grandfather's heart of the emperor, he began to calculate everyone behind his back. ”

Feng Yuerong suddenly interrupted: "The Heart of the Emperor River, sure enough, it was your grandfather who stole the Heart of the Emperor River, do you know how much disaster your grandfather brought to Cangyun Village after stealing the Heart of the Emperor River, and now the clansmen of Cangyun Village are still living in the curse of the Emperor River." ”

The old beggar was a little dazed and said: "I don't know, when I was young, the heart of Dijiang was in my grandfather's hands, this is our Wen family's thing, how did it become that my grandfather stole it?"

Chu Feng said: "This Heart of the Emperor River was originally a thing of Cangyun Village, after your grandfather arrived in Cangyun Village, it was to steal the Heart of the Emperor River, don't you know this?"

The old beggar shook his head in surprise and said, "I don't know, I never knew that there was such a thing, how could it be, how could it be?"

Feng Yuerong said: "Your grandfather stole the totem divine bird of Cangyun Village for his own selfishness, the heart of Dijiang, which caused the whole clan of Cangyun Village to be cursed, the owner of Cangyun Village, the predecessor of Chu, in order to find the heart of Dijiang, also offended almost the entire Kyushu, and died in a foreign land, and now there is only one descendant left in the Chu family, that is, the person in front of you, Chu Feng, we came to you this time to find the heart of Dijiang and lift the curse of Dijiang in Cangyun Village. ”

The old beggar looked at Chu Feng in front of him in shock, and said with some disbelief: "This, how is this possible, how can it become like this, how can it become like this, the heart of the Emperor River, unexpectedly, it was stolen by my grandfather?"

The old beggar couldn't accept the truth of this matter, and kept shaking his head and muttering to himself.

Chu Feng asked, "Back then, what happened to your family, did Gongsun Xu snatch the heart of the emperor?"

The old beggar looked up at Chu Feng, and after a while, he recovered from his shock and said, "When Gongsun Xu knew that the heart of Dijiang was in my grandfather's hands, he began to curry favor with my grandfather in every possible way, and began to design to frame his fellow disciples.

One day, when my grandfather was practicing, Gongsun Xu sneaked into my aunt's room and stunned my aunt, and then found my father again, and drank a lot of wine with my father, and my father was already unconscious, so he took my father to my aunt's room and let them sleep together. When my mother looked for my father, she was in my aunt's room, and saw that my father and my aunt were sleeping together, without clothes, and I fainted at that time, and my aunt woke up, and was ashamed to see people, and ran out of the house directly.

At that time, my father didn't know how he came to my aunt's room, but he didn't care about investigating, so he hurried out to find my aunt, but that night, Gongsun Xu united with some people outside who had enemies with our Wen family, and suddenly began to assassinate my grandfather and others.

At that time, I was still young, after Gongsun Xu caught me, I abolished my muscles and veins, so that I could not practice in the future, and then my mother in order to protect me, has been entangled with them, and when my father came back, he saw everything in the house, only to know that Gongsun Xu did it, in order to take revenge, he and Gongsun Xu desperately, but they were also killed, before my father died, I used the secret technique of my Wen family, so that I and my mother escaped.

After that, my mother and I went on the run, and five years later, my mother also fell ill and died, and I wandered around, hiding outside for decades, and now I finally dared to return. ”

After learning about what happened to the Wen family, Chu Feng and Feng Yuerong couldn't help but sigh, although Wen Baiyan stole the heart of the Emperor River for his own selfish desires, but the Heavenly Dao cycle, and in the end, the whole family ended up like this, and it can be regarded as getting the due retribution because of what they did before.

Feng Yuerong said angrily: "This Gongsun Xu is really vicious, he actually did such a thing, no wonder there have always been so many people in Yanzhou City who have opposed him, in the future, we must also be careful to guard him." ”

Chu Feng nodded and said, "It seems that we will have to deal with Gongsun Xu in the future, but this Emperor Jiang's heart, I'm afraid it won't be easy to get now." ”

The old beggar suddenly said: "Actually, the heart of the Emperor River you are looking for is not in the hands of Gongsun Xu. ”

"What, it's not in his hands, where is it?" Chu Feng hurriedly asked.

The old beggar said: "The heart of the emperor has always been in my body, and the only thing I have stayed in my body over the years is the heart of the emperor, but it has become an ordinary piece of meat without any spiritual power." ”

Feng Yuerong asked, "What's going on, what about the spiritual power in the heart of Emperor Jiang?"

The old beggar said: "All of them were sucked away by Gongsun Xu, at that time, Gongsun Xu didn't know what he used, and absorbed all the spiritual power of my grandfather and the heart of the emperor, so this heart of the emperor became a useless thing, after Gongsun Xu threw it away, I picked it up and kept it with me." ”

Chu Feng asked urgently, "What about the heart of the Emperor River, you take it out quickly." ”

The old man carefully took out a fist-sized thing like a stone from the rag bag on his body, and handed it to Chu Feng.

Chu Feng hurriedly took it and looked at this Emperor River Heart carefully, the outside was very dry, the color was very dark, similar to some dry bark, there was not the slightest spiritual power inside, even if it was still on the ground, it was easy to regard it as a stone full of dirt.

The old beggar said: "This heart of the Emperor River, it used to be relatively large, and it is two big now, but now after there is no spiritual power, it begins to slowly become smaller, and now it has become like this." ”

Feng Yuerong looked at this Heart of the Emperor River and said, "This Heart of the Emperor River has become like this, is it still useful, even if we go back, can we lift the curse of Cangyun Village?"

Chu Feng was also confused, and said: "I don't know, now that I have found the heart of Dijiang, I can only give it a try, if I can't get rid of it, I can only think of other ways." ”

The old beggar said: "If this heart of the emperor is really stolen by my grandfather from Cangyun Village, then I am willing to atone for my grandfather's sins, anyway, I have now lost my life and have been hiding for so many years, and in the end, if I can atone for the crimes committed by my grandfather back then, even if I die, I have no regrets." ”

Chu Feng looked at Feng Yuerong and wanted to hear her opinion.

Feng Yuerong thought for a moment and said: "I think this is okay, Di Jiang is a divine bird, a psychic divine beast, although he is dead, but after being offended, there will also be a curse, if you want to lift the curse, you can only get Di Jiang's forgiveness." Now, the Wen family is the only one left, although we have found the heart of Dijiang, but we have absorbed all the spiritual power, and now, we can only let him follow us to Cangyun Village, hoping to get Dijiang's forgiveness and lift the curse of Dijiang. ”

Chu Feng agreed: "Okay, then you can follow us." ”

Chu Feng put away the heart of the emperor, carefully put it into the storage bag, and then took the old beggar to the inn, took a brief rest, ate something, and then took the old beggar on the road together.

The old beggar was old and healthy, and he was not a monk, so in order to facilitate his journey, Feng Yuerong bought a carriage and asked him to sit in it, and he and Chu Feng drove in front of him to Cangyun Village.

From here to Cangyun Village, it is about five or six hundred miles to the west, and it will take at least two days to arrive. Along the way, the scenery is more simple and desolate, it is rare to see some lush mountains and forests, more barren mountains and mountains, some rolling mountains, all the way to the end of the sky, some peaks go straight into the sky, majestic momentum, people can't help but be shocked.

Along the way, Chu Feng and Feng Yuerong were in a hurry, while admiring the desolate scenery of the west, the old beggar had been sitting in the carriage honestly, without saying a word, looking preoccupied, only when he was resting, he came out to see, but he was also not interested in anything, and after resting, he returned to the carriage and continued to be in a daze. Come to think of it, it is also because of the matter of the heart of the emperor that the old beggar's heart has not been able to calm down.
