Chapter 830: Not a Brother
The old steward felt a chill in his heart when he heard Wu Yunzhao's smiling threat.
He didn't expect that this Miss Sun not only did not regard herself as a martial artist, but also spoke completely ruthlessly.
He glanced at Wu Changqing bitterly, and after seeing a trace of helplessness in the eyes of the eldest young master of their family, he said in his heart: "Yes, this is a master that my father can't suppress." Secretly sighed.
The steward is also a servant.
The young lady who is out is also the Lord.
What else can he do, hurry up and do what he is told.
He arched his hand, confessed his guilt, and ordered the slave to accompany the eldest young master's family and hurriedly enter.
Wu Changqing said at this time: "Happy? ”
Wu Yunzhao pursed his lips, playfully hugged his arms, shook the long sword, let the sword spike turn in a circle, and said, "Dad, what if I say that I am not happy?" ”
Lin Yin couldn't help laughing.
Wu Changqing said helplessly: "What else do you want to do, give me a preparation!" ”
Wu Yunzhao grinned, revealing a mouthful of bright teeth.
Based on years of experience, Wu Changqing realized that his daughter had begun to change her mind again, and she didn't know who was unlucky this time!
He knew that he couldn't stop it, so he didn't stop it, but said: "Pay attention to some measure!" ”
Wu Yunzhao blinked, indicating that everything was under control!
Lin Yin still couldn't help laughing.
She has no objection to her daughter standing up for her husband and suppressing the arrogance of Wujiazhuang. As adults, they can only swallow their anger and resentment.
After a while, Wu Changgeng came to the door accompanied by the housekeeper.
His face was not very good, I don't know if it was because he had not recovered from his previous injury or because he was forced by Wu Yunzhao's words.
He called "big brother" and "sister-in-law" lightly and politely.
Wu Changqing and Lin Yin nodded in response, equally faint.
Wu Yunzhao had to call "second uncle" according to her seniority, but she didn't want to open her mouth, looked at Wu Changgeng, raised her chin, and said hello.
Wu Changgeng didn't take her seriously, ignored her, led the three of them in, and went to see the old lady of the Wu family first, that is, Wu Changqing's grandfather.
When the old housekeeper saw the second young master, the head of the dignified family was helpless by Wu Yunzhao, and he was doubting what was going on in the secret realm. Wu Changgeng was obviously caught, and he didn't dare to make a mistake.
I haven't seen her for a few years, and the old lady of the martial arts family is no longer in good spirits.
His hair was gray and thin, his face was wrinkled, his hands were full, and he was skinny. The robe hung empty on his body.
It feels like it's almost in the ground.
Seeing the dignity of this grandfather, Wu Changqing's family of three completely understood why Wu Changgeng lowered his face and asked them for help.
This master is completely useless, and only the name of building a foundation remains.
The highest combat power in Wujiazhuang turned out to be Wu Changgeng.
Wu Changgeng has already been cleaned up, that is to say, if foreign aid is not invited, Wujiazhuang is destined to be finished and slaughtered.
The old lady and Wu Changqing's family have little friendship. He also disdains to pretend in front of juniors.
Knowing that Wu Changqing's cultivation had entered the country, he simply praised it, but he didn't praise it too much, I don't know if he didn't care or was saving face for Wu Changgeng.
Lin Yin is a seventh-level Qi refining cultivator.
The old lady can't look down on it.
Wu Yunzhao was out of the house, but he was not exempted from too much attention, and he was used to hiding his cultivation, and only showed his cultivation at the fourth or fifth level of qi refining.
The old lady even more disdainful.
In addition, the housekeeper has already told the story of what happened at the door just now.
The old lady has no good impression of this rude, arrogant and untamed granddaughter.
If it weren't for the current enemy, he would definitely give Wu Yunzhao a good lesson in family law.
He didn't have much to say to the two women.
According to his reaction, Wu Yunzhao knew that Wu Changgeng did not talk to the old man about her.
The people of Wujiazhuang were panicked.
One more foundation building monk means more powerful combat power, which helps to calm people's hearts.
Wu Changgeng had better beat the gong and drum to tell the whole family to be reasonable.
Taking a step back, even if he had the intention to catch the enemy off guard and keep it secret for the time being, when it came to the battle, Wu Yunzhao would still expose his foundation cultivation. Wu Changgeng can't hide it from anyone, and he can't hide it from the old lady!
Wu Yunzhao couldn't understand why Wu Changgeng would do this.
The old lady bluntly said that someone came to provoke her, but she didn't know anything about the Shangguan family and was not a former enemy.
He analyzed that the Shangguan family of the fallen eagle stream was deliberately looking for an excuse in order to logically annex the martial family.
As far as we know, Wu Changqing also feels that this analysis is reasonable.
He didn't believe that anyone would make such a big battle for a woman in Fengyue Field, and he would do something to destroy the door.
Wu Changqing asked, "How is Zhuangzhong's combat power?" ”
The old lady asked Wu Changgeng to say.
Wu Changgeng said: "The most powerful one is, of course, the grandfather in the foundation building period. The eldest brother is back, counting you and me, there are five monks at the ninth level of qi refining, seven monks at the eighth level, three monks at the seventh level, and the five or six layers together are about a dozen. ”
Wu Changqing frowned when he heard this, and couldn't help but turn his eyes on the old lady, and suddenly felt that his future was worrying.
After thinking about it, Wu Changqing asked, "How is the injury?" ”
Wu Changgeng was asked about the sore spot, and he was dissatisfied, but he couldn't lie at this time, and said with a sigh of relief: "Okay, it's okay, it's no problem to get started." ”
Wu Changqing regretted coming to this trip.
After thinking about it again, Wu Changqing said, "Why don't you hide?" The heart said: "Just this idea, the remnants of the defeated army are actually waiting for people to come to the door, I really don't know how thick the sky is!" ”
Wu Changgeng was silent.
The old lady said: "How can my dignified martial artist be afraid of a few despicable villains? He picked up the conversation.
Wu Changqing couldn't say anything, and he remained silent at the moment.
After staying for a long time, Wu Yunzhao really realized that the old man had true love for Wu Changgeng!
Helpless, all of a sudden, the five of them were silent.
The room is quiet, and the pins can be heard.
Like every "good" junior in front of a group of elders, Wu Yunzhao lowered his eyebrows and gently stroked the back of his right hand with the fingers of his left hand.
After a while, the old lady broke the silence with a voice: "You are tired from the journey, go and rest first." "Beckoned the housekeeper to take Wu Changqing's family to the guest room.
Since Wu Changqing's family moved out of Wujiazhuang, the place where Wu Changqing originally lived has been given to Wu Changgeng's son, Wu Mingming, to live.
Wu Changgeng couldn't understand what he was thinking.
The old butler led the way while talking about the current situation in the samurai village.
At the corner of a hallway, they ran into Wu Mingming.
Since Wu Mingliang was born, he has only seen Wu Changqing's family on his grandfather's birthday a few years ago, and time has passed, and he has long forgotten what Wu Changqing is like.
The old butler introduced their identities in a timely manner.
Wu Mingliang called the uncle, the aunt, and the cousin.
Wu Mingliang was born a month earlier than Wu Yunzhao. The two are the same age, both fifteen years old.
Wu Mingliang is at the age of throbbing, seeing Wu Yunzhao such a stunning beauty, a great beauty that is rare to see in a hundred years, how can there be a reason not to be distracted?
Wu Changqing's family was also cold to him, and continued to walk in the direction of the guest room.
Looking at their distant backs, especially the backs of the red-clothed ones, Wu Mingliang was very disappointed, and said in his heart: "Why is it a cousin, not a cousin?" ”
Even so, he involuntarily followed.
After the old butler withdrew from the guest room, as soon as he turned around, he bumped into Wu Mingming.
He saw at a glance that Wu Mingliang was fascinated by beauty, and said in his heart: "It's my cousin, otherwise, I don't know how much chaos I will have to make." ”
At the same time, he was also a little annoyed.
The disaster of annihilation is coming, as the son of the head of the family, Wu Mingliang actually thinks about beauty and doesn't think about how to protect Wujiazhuang, he doesn't know what to do.
He reminded: "Young Master, your uncle's family has been traveling for a long time, so you have to recuperate well and prepare for tonight's battle. ”
Wu Mingliang said: "Yes, yes, you should recuperate." He looked past the old butler and at the closed door.
The old housekeeper was too lazy to take care of it, and hurried back to take care of the affairs of the village. There are no more than three generations of wealth, and there is some truth.
In the guest room, Wu Yunzhao saw Wu Mingliang wandering in front of the door through the crack in the window, and said to Wu Changqing: "Dad, there is a prodigal son outside, do you want to beat him?" ”
Wu Changqing said: "Come on, say it as if you care." ”
Lin Yin couldn't help laughing again.
Since his daughter is getting older and older, Wu Changqing has become less and less majestic as a father, and he has always been made weak and helpless. It's really fun for the father and daughter to get along!
Wu Yunzhao stuck out his tongue, walked to Wu Changqing and sat down, and said with a smile: "Dad, I want to ask you something?" ”
Wu Changqing nodded.
Wu Yunzhao said: "Dad, you and Wu Changgeng are both born to the same father, why does the old man like Wu Changgeng and not you?" If he had been better than you before, forget it. At this point, the whole family is counting on you to stand up to you alone, and the old man still doesn't treat you well, isn't it strange? Just now speaking, the old man protected Wu Changgeng everywhere, and he did it. ”
Wu Changqing said: "Let's put each flower into its own eyes." ”
Wu Yunzhao asked again: "Didn't the old man ever like you?" ”
Wu Changqing said: "That's not true. At the beginning, your grandfather had no spiritual roots, so he could only be a mortal and couldn't cultivate, which disappointed the old man. Later, I was born, I measured the spiritual root, I can cultivate, and I walk the path of immortals, and the old man feels that there are successors, and he is very happy, and he is also good to me. ”
Wu Yunzhao said: "After Wu Changgeng was born. ”
Wu Changqing said: "He has better qualifications than me, he is a three-spirit root, and he is naturally more favored." ”
Wu Yunzhao thought for a while and said, "Dad, don't you think that the old man's love for you is different from that for Wu Changgeng?" ”
Wu Changqing said: "Let's say goodbye to relatives." Wu Changgeng has been cultivating with the old man, and he still has a master-apprentice relationship. ”
Wu Yunzhao said: "That's not what it means. Dad, I said it bluntly, don't you think that the old man spoils Wu Changgeng too much, a little bit of right and wrong, not like grandpa spoiling his grandson? ”
As soon as these words came out, Wu Changqing and Lin Yin both looked at Wu Yunzhao.
Wu Changqing asked, "Yun Zhao, what do you mean?" There was tension in his voice.
Wu Yunzhao smiled and said, "Oh, Dad, it seems that you don't have no suspicions." ”
Wu Changqing and Lin Yin looked at each other, shook their heads and smiled bitterly.
Wu Yunzhao smelled the smell of earth-shattering gossip, his eyes lit up, he tugged on Wu Changqing's sleeve, and shook it, that means, say it quickly, say it quickly.
Lin Yin finally couldn't help it, laughed out loud, patted her daughter's shoulder, pointed to the door, and reminded her that there was still a son of Wu Changgeng at the door.
Wu Yunzhao patted his chest, and the meaning was wrapped around me, stood up, and pushed the door out.
Wu Mingliang was looking at it, and when he heard the sound of pushing the door, he was startled, as if he had done something wrong, and he turned his head to run, but he heard a sweet voice and said, "Cousin! ”
He paused for a moment, and looked back to see his cousin looking at him with a smile.
He felt that his heart had been punched, and he trembled, and the deer slammed into it, looking at Wu Yunzhao's pretty face, and he didn't know how to deal with it.
Wu Yunzhao chuckled in a low voice.
Wu Mingliang was embarrassed, his face was red, his ears were red, he was at a loss, his eyes were fluttering, and he didn't dare to look at it in a bright light.
Wu Yunzhao stepped forward, his beautiful eyes flowed, and he said to Wu Mingming: "Cousin, my father and mother are on the road, day and night, and the water and rice have not entered, can you let someone send some food over." ”
Wu Mingliang nodded heavily and said, "Yes, yes, I'll go, I'll go." His voice was trembling and hoarse, and it was clear that he was nervous.
Wu Yunzhao said: "Cousin Xie! ”
Wu Mingliang turned around and ran to make arrangements.
Wu Yunzhao "swished" back to the house, pulled his father, and begged: "Dad, time is pressing, talk quickly!" ”
Wu Changqing sighed.
Wu Yunzhao is coquettish.
Wu Changqing asked Lin Yin for help.
Lin Yin tilted his head to the side.
Wu Yunzhao said: "Dad, if you don't say it, if someone really comes to destroy the door tonight, I won't help." Anyway, the life and death of the people in Wujiazhuang have nothing to do with me. ”
Wu Changqing smiled: "Okay, you are really my daughter, threatening your father." ”
Wu Yunzhao hurriedly said: "Dad, let's talk about it quickly." After a while, Wu Mingliang should come back to be the door god. ”
Wu Changqing didn't have a choice, succumbed, and lowered his voice a little bit: "Before Wu Changgeng was born, your grandfather had a sudden illness, and he passed before he could be treated. ”
Wu Yunzhao grasped the key point and said solemnly: "He is a posthumous son!" ”
Wu Changqing nodded, and said, "At that time, I was not very old, and I was taken care of by my nursing mother. Once, I listened to the nurse and several other mothers-in-law talk about Wu Changgeng's mother, that is, my second mother. They said, look at my second mother's belly, the month is not right. I didn't understand anything at the time, I forgot about it, and I went back to playing. ”
Lin Yin also showed an expression of great interest like his daughter at this time, looking at Wu Changqing, his eyes were full of urging him to continue.
Wu Changqing continued: "Later, Wu Changgeng was born. We grew up until we were seventeen or eighteen. You think, I'm the eldest son and grandson, the most favored in the family, and I'm getting less and less favored day by day, and my heart is definitely not a taste, right? Under the same roof, I don't think I'm worse than Wu Changgeng, and I haven't done anything out of the ordinary, so why can't I be treated by the old man. Somehow, I remembered the conversation between the nurse and the mother-in-law. ”
Wu Yunzhao felt that the truth was coming, and said excitedly: "Dad, how did you think of it?" ”
Wu Changqing said: "After this stubble, I also thought that after my father passed away, the old man was also sick for a while, and my second mother often went to the old man's place to serve." At that time, it was like this, your grandmother was long gone, your grandfather was suddenly gone, and she was still a concubine before she had time to turn Erniang into the main room. In order to have a good life in the martial arts family, she naturally has to talk to the old man, and everyone understands the normal feelings of people. Speaking of this, he smiled slightly and said meaningfully: "But then I calculated, the difference between my father's death and her serving the old man is only ten days." ”
Wu Yunzhao said: "It's very subtle! ”
Wu Changqing said: "But I was just suspicious at the time. After all, the old man had just broken through the foundation building not long ago, and he was 100 years old. ”
Wu Yunzhao asked, "How did you suspect it later?" ”
Wu Changqing showed a slightly embarrassed look, glanced at Lin Yin unconsciously, and coughed lightly; "Yun Zhao, you are a single spirit root, a rare material for thousands of years, and you can cultivate quickly, and those of us with poor qualifications are incomparable. You can build a foundation at the age of twelve. When we were twelve years old, it would be good to be able to enter the first or second layer of Qi refining. The year you were born, your father and I refined qi at the seventh level. Think about it, since your father and I entered the ninth layer of qi refining, it has been so many years before I reached the peak of the ninth layer of qi refining, and if you calculate forward, what age was I when I reached the seventh layer of qi refining? ”
Wu Yunzhao said: "Thirty or forty years old? ”
Wu Changqing shook his head and said, "More than that." At that time, I was at home, pampered, unlike when I was running around later, I had a lot of experience and determination. Speaking of which, I have been able to achieve my current cultivation thanks to my hard work in recent years. ”
Wu Yunzhao guessed again: "Dad, you won't be me at the age of fifty or sixty." ”
Wu Changqing deliberately sold Guanzi, and said: "The old man's qualifications are not good, and when he built the foundation, his hair was gray." That is, he did lay the foundation, and no one said anything. ”
Wu Yunzhao was slightly surprised: "Seventy or eighty? ”
Wu Changqing said: "Just in his early seventies. Looking at his daughter's sly gaze, he raised his hand and gently knocked on the door of his daughter's head, and continued: "After having you, I realized that for monks, being older is not that they can't give birth to children. I had just become a father at the time, so I was naturally cautious and investigated a lot of related matters. I also know that there is another reason why your mother and I have stayed up for so many years to wait for you, a girl, because your mother is also a monk. It is more difficult for monks to have children with monks. ”
Wu Yunzhao grasped the key point again and asked, "What about monks and mortal women?" ”
Wu Changqing smiled: "It's really smart." I can have children at the seventh level of qi refining, and it's not impossible for the old man in the foundation building period, right? ”
The inside story has been clarified, Wu Changqing didn't say more, picked up the tea and drank it slowly.
Lin Yin looked at her daughter and asked, "Yun Zhao, how can you see that something is wrong?" ”
Wu Yunzhao said: "I feel that Wu Changgeng's breath is closer to the old man, and my father's breath is farther than the old man." Normally, my father and Wu Changgeng are both grandchildren, so this should not be the case. ”
Wu Yunzhao is a foundation builder, and she has a keen sense in all aspects, no wonder she can find something unusual at once.
After the gossip was finished, Wu Mingliang also brought the meal.
Wu Yunzhao thanked her.
Wu Mingliang couldn't watch the family eat, and left in a daze.
Wu Changqing and Lin Yin were funny.
It's getting darker.
Midnight is getting closer.
The atmosphere in the samurai village is getting more and more tense.
No one knows the situation of the Shangguan family in Luoyingjian, and it is impossible to know what the strength of the enemy is today.
Everyone, including Wu Changqing's family of three, was ready for battle.
The crescent moon hides in the sky.
At some point, heavy clouds obscured the sky.
Starlight is gone.
The night became surprisingly dark.
The wind also came at the right time, blowing the human hair.
Wu Yunzhao said: "The moon is dark and the wind is high, and it is an excellent killing night." Shangguan's family doesn't know how to pick the hour well! ”
Others were in no mood to talk.
Every word, every sentence fell into the ears of the samurai people.
To their ears, Wu Yunzhao's words were full of ridicule and schadenfreude, showing the coldness of this Miss Sun.
They looked at her.
Wu Yunzhao didn't care and ignored each other.
Wu Mingliang felt that he should mention something, mention his cousin, walked to Wu Yunzhao's side, and persuaded: "Cousin, everyone is nervous, wait for the matter, just kidding." ”
Wu Yunzhao received Wu Changqing's glare and nodded.
Wu Mingliang was delighted. Cousin listens to him!
Wu Changgeng looked coldly at his son, who was close to Wu Yunzhao, gritted his teeth, and scolded secretly: "Don't Xiao Zi!" "Turn your head and order, add a few more lights.
Perhaps affected by his mood, he felt that it was surprisingly dark tonight.
Waiting makes life like a year.
No one spoke.
The quiet environment is depressing, dull, and gradually irritable, and I want to scream and vomit the evil breath in my chest.
But no one dares to break the silence of the moment, carefully.
Midnight is late.
The people of the samurai village are all soldiers.
Strangely, the people of the Shangguan family did not appear as scheduled.
Everyone was suspicious.
Wu Changgeng said: "Are they joking with us? ”
Wu Changqing frowned and groaned, but did not answer.
The old lady of the martial arts family looked around and said in a deep voice: "Maybe it's a ploy, it's deliberately late, so don't relax." ”
Wu Changgeng ordered to go down.
After a cup of tea, the people of the Shangguan family still did not appear.
This is a sure no-show.
Wu Changgeng secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but still maintained a rigorous expression, and asked again: "Grandpa, in my opinion, no one will come." ”
The old lady of the martial family raised his hand and told him not to speak.
Wu Changgeng saw that the old lady's wrinkled face became even more wrinkled, obviously thinking about something, but he didn't figure it out, and he was very entangled.
Wu Changgeng looked at Wu Changqing again.
Unexpectedly, he found that Wu Changqing's face was not good, and he looked panicked.
He wondered, could it be that they had found something? How could he not have noticed anything himself?
Thinking of Wu Yunzhao's extraordinary, Wu Changqing looked at Wu Yunzhao again.
However, this niece of his is not like his grandfather, nor like his eldest brother, as if nothing happened, with a smile on the corner of her mouth.
He knew that Wu Yunzhao's cultivation should be the highest. Since she is so calm, then maybe there is no situation.
He comforted himself in this way, but for some reason, he could not reassure himself.
After a while, he lost the heart to see how others were doing, and he also thought about it.
The old lady of the martial family finally spoke, and it was Wu Changqing who asked.
He said, "Changqing, is something wrong?" ”
Wu Changqing nodded.
The old lady of the martial family was sure that her feeling was right, and looked up at the sky.
Wu Changqing followed.
Wu Changgeng also looked at the sky later.
This action was contagious, and the people of Wujiazhuang all looked at the pitch-black sky.
It was like ink, and there was nothing but darkness.
But everyone had the idea that it was like a black invisible beast that was looking down on them condescendingly, waiting for an opportunity to act.
The old lady of the martial family suddenly said: "Protect your heart!" The voice spread throughout the samurai.
Everybody has to do it.
The next moment, the coercion of the foundation building monk spread.
