Chapter 345 Descendants of the Wen Family
When they arrived in Dongwu County, Yongzhou, Chu Feng and Feng Yuerong temporarily found an inn to live in. Tobu County is a relatively large county here, and there are tens of thousands of people in the city, so it is not easy to find Wen Baiyan's descendants.
After staying at the inn, Feng Yuerong took Chu Fengzi around the city, looking at the customs and customs here, and inquiring about the descendants of the Wen family.
The two of them wandered around the city for a day, only to find out that many years ago, the Wen family was a very prestigious family here, but now there is no one left, only a dilapidated courtyard remains.
Chu Feng and Feng Yuerong came to the courtyard of the Wen family according to the location said by the people here. The gate was closed, and there were some weeds growing in front of the door, and the plaque on the door had long been scattered on the ground, broken into several pieces, and it was clear at a glance that no one had been here for many years.
Chu Feng said: "Why is this place so shabby, is it true that there are no people from the Wen family?"
Feng Yuerong came to the door, looked in through the crack in the door, and said, "Let's go, let's go in and have a look." ”
The two doors had already been broken, and the locks on them had already fallen off, Feng Yuerong pushed it gently, and a heavy "squeak" sounded, and the door was pushed open.
After pushing open the gate, it is overgrown with weeds, and there are scattered gravel in the ground, many buildings in the yard are also very dilapidated, some rockery pavilions are also full of dust, and some of the pavilions are not even covered with roofs, as if they were cut from the middle.
Chu Feng came to a pavilion, looked at the traces of the break, and said, "This pavilion seems to have been cut off from the middle by some sharp weapon. ”
After Feng Yuerong looked at the rockery next to her, she said: "This rockery was also cut off from the middle with a sharp weapon, it seems that there should have been an unusually very fierce battle here back then." ”
Chu Feng said: "The people here said before that many years ago, the Wen family underwent a great change, many people died, and overnight, there was not even a single person, it should be the big war back then." ”
Feng Yuerong nodded and said: "It's very likely, but it is said that back then, that Wen Baiyan's cultivation was very high, and it seemed that he had reached the realm of the Sword God, what kind of person would he be, who could kill so many people from the Wen family overnight, could it be another sword god who had an enmity with the Wen family, so who would this person be?"
Chu Feng said: "I really can't imagine that the Wen family will become like this, now that the Wen family is gone, the Wen family may have no descendants, where are we going to find the heart of the emperor?"
Just when Chu Feng was worried, Feng Yuerong suddenly shouted loudly: "Who's outside, come out!"
Feng Yuerong shouted, a figure outside the gate hurriedly ran away, and Chu Feng asked, "Who is outside?"
Feng Yuerong said: "I don't know, let's hurry up and catch up, maybe we can find any clues." ”
"Let's go, hurry up. ”
Chu Feng and Feng Yuerong hurriedly ran out, and after running out, they saw that no one outside was gone.
Chu Feng said: "Who is running so fast?"
Feng Yuerong looked around and said, "It seems to be a beggar, he is very old, and he runs quite fast, but it doesn't matter, I will find him out." ”
Chu Feng asked, "What can you do?"
Feng Yuerong grinned and said, "Let's go, you'll know in a while." ”
Afterwards, Chu Feng followed Feng Yuerong to a street next to him, where there were many beggars, and the environment was also very dirty.
Chu Feng was puzzled: "What are we doing here?"
Feng Yuerong said: "This is a good place to find out the news, they must know where that person ran just now?"
Feng Yuerong walked up to a beggar and said, "I asked you about something. ”
The beggar suddenly saw such a beautiful beauty, and his eyes became fanatical, and he kept staring at Feng Yuerong and said, "What do you want to ask?"
Feng Yuerong asked, "Just now, did you see an old beggar running over from here?"
The beggar's broken bowl stretched out his hand towards Feng Yuerong, and the meaning was already obvious.
Feng Yuerong took out some broken silver, which was still in his broken bowl.
When he saw the silver, the beggar immediately became much more enthusiastic, and said, "I saw it, I just ran from here, and it seems that I was in a hurry, and I almost tripped over." ”
Feng Yuerong then asked, "Where did he go, and who is he?"
The beggar was silent, looked at Feng Yuerong and Chu Feng, and shook the broken bowl in front of the two.
Chu Feng said: "Didn't I already give you silver, why do you still want it?"
The beggar looked like a scoundrel and said, "I have answered your question just now, and now that you have asked me a new question, you will naturally give me another silver." ”
"You're ......"
"Give, say. ”
Feng Yuerong interrupted Chu Feng, and then threw a broken silver into his broken bowl.
When he saw the silver, the beggar quickly put it away, and said, "That man, an old drunkard who is famous here, and I don't know who he is, came to us a few years ago, dressed in tatters, and did not want to eat, but drank every day, and was drunk all day long, and lived in a ruined temple in the west of the city. ”
After hearing the news of that person, Feng Yuerong said, "Let's go, let's go see this old drunkard." ”
Chu Feng and Feng Yuerong followed what the beggar said, and when they came to the ruined temple in the west of the city, they saw an old beggar sitting in the courtyard drinking.
"You're pretty fast. ”
After Feng Yuerong said something loudly, the old beggar was startled when he saw Feng Yuerong and Chu Feng, and hurriedly ran to the house.
Feng Yuerong's figure flashed, and before the old beggar ran into the house, she grabbed his arm and threw him away, directly leaving him on the ground.
"You still want to run, see where you're going?"
Chu Feng also hurriedly came to Feng Yuerong's side, looked at the old beggar on the ground, and said, "That person just now, is that him?"
Feng Yuerong nodded and said, "Yes, it's him." ”
"Say, what did you secretly follow us just now?" Feng Yuerong frightened.
The old beggar got up from the ground, facing Chu Feng and Feng Yuerong, he was not afraid at all, and then directly picked up a kitchen knife next to him and slashed at the two of them. Then he cried out, "I want revenge, I want to kill you." ”
The old beggar suddenly became angry, Chu Feng and Feng Yuerong didn't know why, they didn't know what was going on, looking at the old beggar like this, it seemed that they had a deep hatred with him.
Chu Feng snatched the knife from the old beggar's hand, and then grabbed the old beggar's wrist with the other hand, flipped it out, and directly subdued the old beggar.
"Why are you following us, and now you want to kill us, what kind of enmity do we have against you?"
The old beggar glared at Chu Feng angrily and shouted: "You people, I must kill you, haven't you been looking for me, I didn't want to live anymore when you found out today, today, even if I fight for my life, I won't let you have a good time." ”
The old beggar struggled desperately, but after being controlled by Chu Feng, he couldn't move at all.
Feng Yuerong was a little angry and said: "I said, you are really strange, we have no grievances with you, you not only followed us, but now you want to kill us, what kind of person are you?"
The old beggar laughed sadly twice and said, "You have been looking for me for so many years, don't you just want to kill me, in that case, why bother talking nonsense, just do it." ”
The more the old beggar said, the more Chu Feng and Feng Yuerong didn't understand, Chu Feng let go of the old beggar and said: "What do you mean by this, why do we kill you, we have no grievances with you, what are we doing to kill you, but you, seeing us, is like seeing an enemy." ”
Seeing that Chu Feng and Feng Yuerong didn't mean to kill themselves, the old beggar's mood calmed down a little, and then asked, "You guys, are you really not here to kill me?"
Feng Yuerong smiled bitterly and explained: "We don't know you, why do we want to kill you, we found out that you were secretly following us behind, so we found you and wanted to ask for an understanding." ”
After Feng Yuerong finished speaking, the old beggar finally let down his vigilance and was no longer as angry as he was just now.
"Who the hell are you, and why did you go to that yard?"
Feng Yuerong said: "We were looking for someone, so we went to that courtyard to have a look, so why did you follow us?"
The old beggar did not answer, but asked, "Who are you looking for?"
Chu Fengdao said: "We are looking for the descendants of the Wen family, do you know where the descendants of the Wen family are now?"
Hearing this, the old beggar immediately became vigilant again and asked, "What are you doing looking for the descendants of the Wen family?"
Seeing the change in the expression on the old beggar's face, Feng Yuerong probably guessed something, and said, "You asked in such detail, you should know about the descendants of the Wen family, or are you the descendants of the Wen family?"
As soon as these words came out, the old beggar immediately became nervous, and couldn't help but look at Feng Yuerong, as if something had been discovered.
"Sure enough, I guessed it, what do you and the descendants of the Wen family care about?"
Chu Feng looked at the old beggar who was a little nervous, and said: "Old man, do you know the descendants of the Wen family, we have an urgent matter to find him now, but don't worry, we are not here to harm him, we have something to ask him, after asking, we will leave, and we will definitely not hurt him." ”
The old beggar looked at Chu Feng and Feng Yuerong again, and asked with some vigilance, "You guys, are you really not sent by Gongsun Xu?"
Chu Feng said: "Gongsun Xu, old man, we were not sent by Gongsun Xu, do you know Gongsun Xu?"
At this time, the old beggar's face suddenly became angry, as if there was an endless fire burning in his eyes, and the whole person trembled slightly.
"What's wrong with you, old man?"
Seeing that the old beggar had become so angry, Chu Feng hurriedly asked.
After a while, the old beggar said: "Since you are not sent by Gongsun Xu, then it doesn't hurt for me to tell you, in fact, I am the descendant of the Wen family, and the only descendant." For so many years, Gongsun Xu has been sending people to hunt me down, so all these years, I have been hiding in Tibet, until a few years ago, I finally dared to return here, but I never dared to show my face, just hid in this broken temple, and lived for the rest of my life. ”
After learning that the old beggar in front of them was the descendant of the Wen family, Chu Feng and Feng Yuerong were overjoyed, and they couldn't imagine that the descendants of the Wen family were still in the world, so there was hope for finding the heart of Dijiang and lifting the curse of Dijiang in Cangyun Village.
Feng Yuerong was puzzled: "I heard that Gongsun Xu used to be a closed disciple of your ancestor Wen Baiyan, so you should be the same person, why does Gongsun Xu keep chasing and killing you?"
The old beggar's face became angry again, his fists clenched, he felt that there was endless anger in his body about to erupt, and the whole person was completely changed, Chu Feng and Feng Yuerong couldn't help but feel cold in their hearts when they saw the old beggar like this, I don't know why the old beggar hates Gongsun Xu so much.
