Chapter 857: The Treasure of the Clan
Murong Xi sneered and said, "Hmph, listening to the tone of your voice, you are like an elder, but you are so immature when it comes to doing things." Obviously, I have the token of the valley lord in my hand, but you have repeatedly broken your word. Ji Limo, let's go out, who he is is no longer so important to me. It's a big deal that we go back to the Valley of the Medicine King and find the answer in the tomb of our ancestors. ”
Before Murong Xi's words fell, he pulled Feng Mingye and Ji Limo to prepare to leave. The masked man has been locked up for so long, and finally someone came in to see him, how could he let people out so easily. Hurriedly said to Murong Xi: "Don't go, you can ask if you want to know something." ”
"I asked you and didn't tell me why you have to stand here and suffer." Murong Xi said.
"Forget it, since you have a token, I can tell you that it's okay." The Masked Man said.
Murong Xi raised his eyebrows, and said to Ji Limo with a smile: "Brother, why don't we go in and listen." ”
Ji Limo knew that Murong Xi wanted to sit, so he asked someone to move a chair in and said, "It's the same for sitting outside." ”
The masked man thought for a moment and said, "Actually, you didn't all guess who I was last time, did you?" ”
Murong Xi didn't speak, but kept staring at the masked man.
Seeing that Murong Xi ignored him, the masked man had no choice but to speak again: "I am indeed not a Wuzun, I know that you have long suspected that I am the descendant of Elder Zheng, right?" ”
"No, maybe you're Elder Zheng himself." Murong Xi opened his mouth and said.
I didn't expect Murong Xi to think like this, obviously mentioning the masked man's interest. The Masked Man had thought that if he said that, no one would believe his words. Who knew that Murong Xi directly expressed his doubts, of course, what surprised him a little was that Feng Mingye beside Murong Xi was not too surprised.
"How do you know?" The masked man said in surprise.
Because at the beginning, he misled Ji Limo, making him think that he was actually the descendant of the Elder, but he just liked to pretend to be a ghost. Thinking about it carefully, there was a reason why the masked man did this, after all, he was brought back to Fengtian Sect by Ji Limo.
He wasn't worried that no one would believe him, on the contrary, he was worried that Ji Limo would believe in him and then use himself to get the method of cultivating forbidden arts.
"You just called my master by his name, if you don't really think of yourself as an elder, then you really think of him personally. Moreover, what I see in your eyes is that you really look down on me. Moreover, how can such a treacherous person as you admit that you are an elder in front of Wu Zun? Murong Xi said with a smile.
Although she didn't know about Elder Zheng, her master did. Shi Gong had talked about the Medicine King Valley before, so he naturally mentioned the person of Elder Zheng. When the elders planned to control Shigong, the Great Elder trusted Elder Zheng very much.
It can be seen that in addition to Elder Zheng's ability to refine Gu, the city government is also very deep, otherwise the Great Elder would not have handed over such an important matter to him.
The masked man obviously didn't expect this girl to be able to guess his identity, after all, after he came back from Ji Limo before, he had been pretending to be stupid and stunned, and he had never admitted who he really was. For Murong Xi's tone, he was not angry, on the contrary, he really admired this girl. Back then, they had always wanted to control Yunfeng, but they didn't succeed at first, and he always thought that it was just Yunfeng's luck. It wasn't until that night that after all the people in the Gu were summoned to the back mountain, they all thought they had won. But I didn't expect the praying mantis to catch the cicada and the yellow finch behind, and the sudden appearance of Yunfeng reversed the ending. Yes, Yunfeng won. Yun Feng, who seems to be lucky, has actually always been strategizing, and has already figured out how to deal with them.
Thinking of that night many years ago, he still had palpitations, sighed, and smiled self-deprecatingly, Yunfeng was able to accept this girl as an apprentice, naturally it would not be a simple woman.
"Whatever you want to know, I'll tell you." The masked man sat down on the futon and poured himself a cup of tea by the way.
Although the Masked Man is locked up here, it doesn't look like a prison at all, but more like an elegant courtyard. There is everything in the house, and the masked man is very comfortable to live here. If it weren't for the fact that Elder Zheng was captured by Ji Limo, it would be like an old man in Fengtian Sect.
Murong Xi and Ji Limo glanced at each other, and after Ji Limo nodded, Murong Xi said, "Naturally, I want to know how you escaped from the formation and how you stole the sky." Also, we want to know what you took out of the ancestors' tombs. ”
The masked man, who was also the Elder Zheng, smiled and said, "It was actually really an accident to be able to come out of the formation back then. Didn't you know that one of the corners of the cave had collapsed, and I thought I would be buried alive in it. As a result, it did not occur that the hole was empty underneath. I just remember getting out of the ground quickly, so when I saw a way, I went out as hard as I could. ”
It turned out that the masked man walked all the way underground, thinking that he would be able to come out, but what he didn't expect was that he actually walked into the tomb of the ancestors. In other words, it was the collapse of the cave that allowed him to get the thing in the tomb.
He knew that there was movement in the cave, and the people outside must know it, but if he escaped like this, he thought that Yunfeng would not let him go, and when the time came, he would definitely look around. So, while the outsiders had not yet entered, he quickly ran out of the tomb, killed people who were very similar to himself, and returned to the cave. When he returned again, he found that the formation in the cave had disappeared. He knew that the lack of formation was likely to be related to the sudden collapse of the cave. Of course, when he went out, he filled in the hole. Therefore, no one found out that he had left the cave underground.
It's as simple as that, when he entered the ancestral tomb again, and before leaving, he knelt down and kowtowed to the ancestor three times. He didn't know why he suddenly made such a move, but he knew that he was alive and should be grateful to the people who left the passage. Of course, the ancestors should be thanked the most.
In the past, when they worshiped their ancestors, they only worshipped outside, and they did not enter the tomb to kowtow outside the coffin. So, when he kowtowed and got up, there was a click, and a wooden box bounced up from under the coffin.
Naturally, he didn't dare to delay, after all, he had cheated to death in order to leave. No matter how important the box found in his hand was, he couldn't return it to Yun Feng in person.
After leaving the Medicine King Valley, he casually found a cave on the mountain to live in, and by the way, he checked what was in the wooden box.
But when he opened the wooden box and saw the contents inside, he thought it was incredible. The wooden box not only recorded how people entered the Fengtian Sect, but also left several martial arts secret books.
When he was in the cave, Elder Zheng was not idle, but cultivated one of the martial arts secret books. It was also at that time that he learned the secrets of the Fengtian Sect and the Medicine King Valley.
After about half a year, he found the location of the Fengtian Sect according to the map.
Coincidentally, Ji Limo was not in the teaching at all. After he entered the Fengtian Sect, he did not enter the forbidden land, because although the book wrote how to enter the Fengtian Sect, it did not explain where the forbidden land was. Otherwise, even if Elder Zheng could avoid those black-clothed people, he would not be able to avoid the elders in the forbidden land.
Murong Xi thought in his heart, fortunately, the ancestor was still sensible, and he didn't write down all the secrets of the Fengtian Sect, otherwise, the current Wuzun would probably have to be replaced.
But if you think about it carefully, maybe the ancestors didn't know that there was such a thing as a forbidden land in the Fengtian Sect, right? However, no matter who it was, as long as he was willing to kowtow to him, he told this person all the Mimimi of the Fengtian Sect and the Medicine King Valley. Is it in the hope that this person will fulfill his unfulfilled wish? What wishes would the ancestors have, would they want to take the Fengtian Sect as their own?
Didn't the ancestors have the idea of going back to the tribe and unifying the tribe? Then there is no need for him to get the Fengtian Sect.
Elder Zheng stopped and took a sip of tea when he said this, and Murong Xi finally came back to his senses.
"What's left in the wooden box? Since the ancestors left you a secret book, didn't you explain anything? Murong Xi asked.
"In addition to the cheats and maps, there is only one letter left in the wooden box. Of course, the letter not only wrote down the way to be able to enter the Fengtian Sect safely, but also wrote about the secrets of the ancestors. Elder Zheng thought for a moment and said.
Murong Xi just looked at Elder Zheng and didn't speak, Elder Zheng knew that Murong Xi was waiting for him to continue.
So, he continued: "Because the ancestors in the Medicine King Valley are not ancestors. ”
"Not an ancestor? Who can hide the elders from pretending to be ancestors? Murong Xi asked in shock.
I think that this person who can pretend to be an ancestor should know how to heal, and he is very clever. If the medical skills are not bad, why pretend?
"This person is naturally Lord Wuzun of the Fengtian Sect. Our ancestors and Lord Wuzun actually met a lot at that time, after all, the two were brothers. However, soon there was a disagreement between the two men, one wishing to return to the tribe and the other wishing to live like this forever. Girl, guess who, who wants to live in such a stable life? Elder Zheng asked rhetorically.
"The person who wants to live in peace won't be Wuzun, right?" Murong Xi asked in disbelief.
However, Elder Zheng was sure of her thoughts.
"I didn't expect you to be so powerful, you're right, maybe Fengtian Sect is used to being elusive, so I don't want too many people to know about the relationship, so I don't want to go back to the tribe. It's just that the ancestor naturally refused, because he needed the help of the Fengtian Sect. In the end, the two people thought of a good solution, which was to swap identities between the two people. Maybe you can't imagine that the two of them look alike, and because the two of them often talk together, no one recognizes him as a fake ancestor. Then after the ancestor returned to the Fengtian Sect, no one would recognize him. Elder Zheng said slowly.
"So what Elder Zheng means is that in fact, the ancestor in the ancestral tomb is the Wuzun of the Fengtian Sect?" Murong Xi asked.
"The girl is right, that's exactly what she said. The ancestor in the ancestral tomb was actually the Wuzun of the Fengtian Sect, but the person who wrote this letter was not him. Elder Zheng shook his head and said.
It was just confirmed that it was Wuzun in the tomb, but the funny thing was that the wooden box in the tomb was not left by him. Murong Xi looked at Elder Zheng in a daze, what the hell is going on?
"So the wooden box wasn't left behind by him?" Murong Xi asked.
Elder Zheng shook his head again, and then said, "It is not clear who left this letter, so I am not sure. ”
