Chapter 140: How to deal with it
Cang Wunian's eyes condensed slightly, and he took a few steps closer. When he landed his gaze on the bed, he was slightly stunned. I saw Gu Wentian lying there very quietly, without any expression on his face, his eyes were empty, if he couldn't feel the fluctuation of his breath, this appearance really looked like he was dead.
"He's ...... What's wrong?" Cang Wunian turned his head sideways and cast an inquiring glance at Hui Gu and Luo Fan, after all, the two of them present had the most excellent medical skills.
Aunt Hui subconsciously glanced at Cang Wunian, but shook her head absentmindedly, her thoughts were not here at all.
Luo Fan's eyes were slightly gloomy, and he said in a low voice: "The soul in his body has been shattered. ”
As soon as Luo Fan's voice fell, several people in the room were slightly stunned, but Cang Wunian frowned after a short period of stunned.
"Master...... This Gu Wentian has become like this, could it be because of the blow of Xiao Chengcheng last night?"
"What? You mean, it was Sister Allure who smashed his soul?" Qiao Sanniang's eyes widened and she exclaimed in disbelief.
"Didn't I tell you that Xiao Chengcheng also appeared in Panxi Town last night? At first, she was half conscious because of the enchanting medicine in her body, but then she suddenly became conscious, and she looked very strange, as if there was a master with very good mana who controlled her body. Gu Wentian would become what he is now, because he received a mana from Xiao Chengcheng into his body. Jun Yixuan explained to Qiao Sanniang in a low voice.
Except for Qiao Sanniang, the rest of the people present have experienced everything that happened in Panxi Town last night. When they heard Luo Fan say that the soul in Gu Wentian's body was shattered, the first reaction in their minds was to draw the abnormal appearance of Allure last night: indifferent, cold, seemingly ruthless but affectionate. But what everyone couldn't understand the most was when her mana became so unfathomable.
Luo Fan stared at Cang Wunian with a complicated expression, and only after a long time did he ask in a low voice, "When you were with Allure a few days ago, did you find anything unusual about her?"
Cang Wunian's eyes condensed slightly, but he shook his head decisively: "Although I haven't been in contact with her for a long time, I can see that she is a woman with a simple mind like a blank sheet of paper. In the past few days, except for the occasional episode of Gu poison in her body, there is indeed nothing unusual about it. ”
"Yes, in order to escape the search of the demons, we fled to a barren mountain a hundred miles away from Danqing Valley, and since then I have lived on that barren mountain with Allure for fifteen years. Allure has never been in contact with the outside world, and is simply ignorant of the world. As for her mana...... I just want her to have the ability to protect herself in the world, so what I taught her before was just the most superficial and basic technique, that is, no matter how strong her immortal root is, it shouldn't progress so quickly. And Allure has been a kind and soft-hearted child since he was a child, even if Gu Wentian did a lot of evil, she would never use such a drastic means to shatter his soul alive. When it comes to painting Allure, and then thinking of the huge contrast between her last night and the way she has always been, Aunt Hui's face is full of disbelief and regret.
According to Luo Fan's guess last night, maybe the painting Allure City and Cang Wunian had some relationship in the previous life, so when Cang Wunian encountered a crisis, it touched the memory of the previous life of the painting Allure. However, although the theory of past lives and present lives exists, they have never seen anyone who can evoke the memories of past lives, and they do not know that if a person awakens the memories of past lives, then the consciousness of which life will be the master of the current physical body from now on. If the indifferent and cold woman last night was indeed the previous life of Painting Allure, then her sharp determination to repay her eyes really made Aunt Hui feel at a loss.
Cang Wunian frowned, recalling everything that happened last night in his mind, but he couldn't remember how when he was about to be attacked by Luo Fan and Jun Yisheng, how the painting allure suddenly appeared in front of him, and how he easily blocked the attack of the two for him.
"You can't kill him. ”
The indifferent and cold voice sounded in my mind again, the familiar sentence "Ah Nian", as well as the plain clothes flying in the night breeze and the unparalleled elegance that seemed to be repulsive but could not be ignored.
"Perhaps...... She was meant to be like that. Cang Wunian muttered subconsciously.
"Well, I'm afraid this issue can't be discussed now. Wu Nian, what are you going to do with Gu Wentian?" Luo Fan shook his head and changed the subject.
"Heh......" A flash of inspiration flashed in Cang Wunian's mind, and he couldn't help but chuckle. There is abruptness, helplessness, and emotion in the laughter. Painting, is that what you intended?
"If Luo Fan's predecessor has no debts to collect from him, I will have someone take him back to Qianji Villa. As long as he lives, he will still be the owner of Thousand Machines Villa. Cang Wunian replied with a smile in his eyes.
Luo Fan was slightly stunned at first, then stretched out the index finger of his right hand and shook it at Cang Wunian, and said with a knowing expression: "Good boy!"
Seeing that these two people looked tacit and not inhumane, the few people on the side were confused, you look at me, I look at you, I don't understand what dumb riddle they are playing.
"Little Prince, Senior Luofan, you ...... What the hell are you talking about?" An Ruyue couldn't help but ask curiously.
Luo Fan smiled when he saw her anxious expression: "Little girl, let me ask you, what is this Thousand Machine Pavilion?"
An Ruyue blinked and explained very seriously: "Qianji Pavilion is not a specific place, it is the largest intelligence organization in the rivers and lakes, divided into a total of thirty-six realms, covering almost every corner of the human world. ”
Luo Fan nodded, and then asked, "What is the Thousand Machine Villa?"
An Ruyue pursed her lips: "Isn't it the chief rudder of the Thousand Machine Pavilion." ”
"Since the establishment of the Thousand Machines Pavilion, the owner of the Thousand Machines Pavilion and the owner of the Thousand Machines Villa are both Gu Wentian. And now Gu Wentian has become a puppet who has no autonomous consciousness and can be at the mercy of others, you say, from now on, will this village owner and pavilion master still be him?" Luo Fan asked with a smile.
An Ruyue frowned, and shook her head blankly: "I don't understand, the owner of the village and the owner of the pavilion are the same thing." ”
When Luo Fan heard this, he shook his head in disapproval and sighed: "Hey, pedantic, pedantic!"
Jun Yisheng said with some hesitation on the side: "What does Master mean is that Gu Wentian still holds the title of the owner of Qianji Mountain Villa, but in fact, the real owner of Qianji Pavilion has become Cang Wunian?"
Luo Fan raised his eyebrows: "Well, the son can be taught." You are a talented child, if you can carefully consider everything before making a judgment, even if he can't soar to immortality one day, he will definitely be able to benefit one party. ”
Hearing Luo Fan's voice, Jun Yisheng hurriedly lowered his head and hugged his fists and said, "Master has taught me that the apprentice is indeed too emotional. ”
"Little Prince, it turns out that you had this idea, but this old man is like this now, why don't you just kill him, wouldn't it be good if you announced that you would take over the Thousand Machine Pavilion completely?" An Ruyue asked inexplicably.
Cang Wunian shook his head: "Do you remember what he said last night before he was knocked unconscious by Hua'er? He said that Qianji Pavilion is not as simple as I see, and I deeply believe this sentence. Such a large organization, so well functioned, that there are many forces that want to uproot it, but no one has ever done so. Gu Wentian has been in charge of the Thousand Machine Pavilion for hundreds of years, and his foundation is solid, if his death is suddenly announced, and I, the so-called righteous son in name, take the throne in his place, not to mention whether it will arouse the suspicion of the force behind the Thousand Machine Pavilion, I am afraid that his sworn henchmen within the Thousand Machine Pavilion alone will not give up. My current strength is not enough to be proud of the world, so I don't want to cause these unnecessary troubles. ”
After listening to Cang Wunian's explanation, everyone suddenly realized. We all know that it is easy to fight the country and it is difficult to defend the country, but after seeking power and usurping the throne, it is even more difficult not to cause internal contradictions. Although Cang Wunian had cultivated his own strength in the Thousand Machines Pavilion over the years, if he thought that with these, he would be able to announce Gu Wentian's death in such a high-profile manner, and take charge of the Thousand Machines Pavilion himself, I am afraid that the power he cultivated would be stifled by Gu Wentian's henchmen and even the forces behind the Thousand Machines Pavilion before they could play a role.
Luo Fan nodded appreciatively, he can bend and stretch, not arrogant or impatient, this is the person who can achieve great things. It's just a pity...... How far can he go without a soul, and how much trust is he worthy of others?
"Then what are you going to do next?" Putting the sorrow and doubt in his heart behind him, Luo Fan asked lightly.
"I'm going to go back to Thousand Machines Villa, but before I can do that, I have to go back to my house to take care of some things. Thinking that Hua Chengcheng was drugged by the people in his own house, Cang Wunian couldn't help but squint, and a touch of anger surged in his heart.
"That'...... What should I do with Allure?" Hearing that Cang Wunian was leaving, Aunt Hui couldn't help but get nervous.
Cang Wunian sighed slowly, remembering that she had left Suiyun Yuan expressionlessly first, presumably her heart must have been extremely disappointed. But disappointment is better than despair, I hope she can think about it and stop obsessing with painting souls.
"Don't worry, I'll be back in three days. Cang Wunian said softly, after thinking about it, he took out a bronze token from his waist and handed it to Aunt Hui, "If there is anything unusual about the painting in the past three days, use mana to urge it, and I will come as soon as possible." ”
Aunt Hui took the token and nodded helplessly.
didn't stay any longer in the Demon Slaying Sect, because the injuries in their bodies were still too serious, Cang Wunian and An Ruyue took Gu Wentian, who was like a puppet, to drive the carriage and quickly returned to the mansion outside the city.
