Chapter 42: An Unexpected Appointment

Murong Yan and Wu Wei are both people who are not good at chatting, and the silence of the two of them along the way is a little embarrassing. Halfway through the car, Wu Wei originally wanted to find a topic to break the embarrassing atmosphere, but he was just about to speak, but Murong Yan spoke first: "I heard that others say that you are a human being, is it true or false?" ”

Wu Wei swallowed back the words that had just been brewed in his mouth, and then replied: "It's true, I was bitten by a female fish, and then I became a human fish." ”

Murong Yan seemed to be very interested in the human lug, and he then asked, "What is the difference between a human lure and a normal person?" Do you not need to eat and need to suck blood like a zombie to stay alive? ”

Wu Wei replied to him: "No, in fact, I am usually no different from normal people, I will be hungry and need to eat, I will not suck blood like a zombie, I don't know about other people." However, if the emotions are out of control or in a fighting state, the human will grow long fangs, and its eyes will turn blood-red, and its speed and strength will be several times faster than ordinary people. But normal people are afraid of the sun, and I have become not afraid of the sun for some reason. ”

Murong Yan said, "Isn't that good! If all people become humans, aren't humans even stronger? ”

Wu Wei shook his head and said: "The human demon is a kind of existence dominated by a curse, maybe I am more special so it looks more normal, while the other human beings are like puppets controlled by the more powerful human beings, and they have no autonomous power, they have become beasts at the mercy of others, and they can no longer be called human." ”

After hearing this, Murong Yan pursed his lips and said, "That's not good, what's the point of living without freedom and humanity?" ”

Wu Wei nodded in agreement.

Murong Yan then asked him, "Why are you also a human, but you are special?" ”

Wu Wei said: "I don't know, maybe the one who transformed me is more special, so I am also more special." ”

Then, Murong Yan asked Wu Wei about the last time they surrounded and suppressed Lu Dao, and now that this matter has spread, there is nothing to hide. Wu Wei briefly told Murong Yan about the battle with the Lu Dao forces, and Murong Yan said with some regret after hearing this: "It's a pity to miss such a wonderful battle, if there is such an opportunity next time, remember to call me." ”

Wu Wei didn't expect Murong Wei to say this, he reminded Murong Wei and said: "Lu Dao is not so easy to deal with, we killed several top masters in the last battle, although you are very strong, but you may not have the ability to fight against Lu Dao." ”

After hearing this, Murong Yan smiled and said, "If there is a chance, the two of us can have a fight, and you will know if I have the ability to deal with Lu Dao." ”

Wu Wei didn't know what extraordinary skills this Murong Wei had, but listening to the meaning of his words, he seemed to be very confident in his combat effectiveness. Regardless of whether this Murong Wei was young and frivolous, or really had some ability, Wu Wei did not continue to refute him, after all, there were too many hidden people he had seen recently, and Wu Wei did not dare to underestimate anyone now.

After talking about the matter of Renlu, Wu Wei originally wanted to ask about the matter between the Wolf Gang and the Blue Sky Group. But thinking of Liu Yue's instructions to him, Wu Wei felt that it was better to have more than one thing, and he didn't want to get involved in any battle between human forces now, and asking too many questions would cause misunderstanding.

The time when Wu Wei came out of the Qinglu was around three o'clock in the afternoon, although Murong Yan drove very fast along the way, it was already evening when he arrived at his destination.

After Murong Qingtian, the old gang leader of the Tou Wolf Gang, passed the position of the gang leader to his son Murong Lingxiao, he washed his hands and was in a semi-secluded state, so he did not live with the gang, but lived alone on the mountain behind the headquarters of the Tou Wolf Gang.

Murong Yan parked the car at the foot of the mountain, and then walked with Wu Wei for almost a kilometer of the mountain road before finally coming to the door of a secluded courtyard halfway up the mountain.

The gate of the courtyard was open, and Wu Wei followed him in, and after walking in, he saw several neat flower beds on the right side of the courtyard, planted with all kinds of colorful flowers. On the left side of the yard is a vegetable patch with several different vegetables, which are also neatly maintained. There is a chicken shed next to the vegetable patch, and several chickens are pacing leisurely near the chicken shed. There is an osmanthus tree and two pomegranate trees planted near the door, and a big black-backed wolf dog is tethered under the tree, like a warm farm yard.

Hearing that someone had entered the yard, the big wolf dog stood up vigilantly and barked twice, but when the big wolf dog saw that it was Murong Yan, he immediately changed from vigilance to wagging his tail to flatter. Murong Yan stepped forward and touched the head of the big wolf dog, and an old voice suddenly came from the room and asked, "Is the fox here?" ”

Murong Yan replied to the house, "It's me, grandpa!" ”

Wu Wei asked suspiciously, "The old gang leader of the Wolf Gang is your grandfather?" ”

Murong Yan replied naturally, "Yes, what's so strange about this? ”

At this time, the house asked again, "Is Mr. Xiao Wu invited?" ”

Murong Yan replied, "Please, Mr. Wu is by my side!" ”

The old voice said, "Then don't you hurry up and invite the guests in!" ”

As he spoke, Murong Yan pushed open the door and led Wu Wei into the house.

Walking into the room is a simple hall, there is a table of eight immortals in the middle of the hall, and the bedrooms on the left and right sides, and it should be the kitchen when you walk through the hall, because Wu Wei has already smelled the smell of vegetables coming from inside.

After Wu Wei and the others entered the door, an old man also walked out of the kitchen inside. I saw that the old man was tall and thin, wearing a gray shirt, his gray hair was not deliberately taken care of, although his face was full of wrinkles, he still looked energetic and capable, and he didn't even have a beard.

After seeing Wu Wei, the old man showed a kind smile, just like an ordinary neighbor grandfather, just looking at his appearance, he couldn't imagine that he was once a decisive and fearsome leader of a gang.

"Are you Mr. Wu Weixiao? Hello, my name is Murong Qingtian! I saw Murong Qingtian walking over with a smile on his face, and stretched out his right hand to Wu Wei while introducing himself. Wu Wei hurriedly walked up to Murong Qingtian in a panic, held the other party's right hand with both hands, and then bent down respectfully and said, "Hello Old Man Murong!" The younger generation is Wu Wei, you can just call me Xiao Wu! ”

Murong Qingtian nodded at Wu Wei with a smile, and then said, "Okay, okay, don't be restrained, come, sit down first!" ”

After beckoning Wu Wei to sit down, Murong Qingtian also sat opposite him, and then instructed Murong Qingtian: "Li'er, you go to the kitchen and bring out the dishes, there is a jar of wine in the kitchen cabinet, and bring it too." ”

Wu Wei said embarrassedly: "I'll also go and help serve the food!" ”

He just wanted to get up, but was stopped by Murong Qingtian, he waved his hand and said, "There is no reason to let the guests do it, you just sit with peace of mind." I estimated the time, and by the time you got there, it should be almost dark, so before you came, I made a few side dishes, and you can just have a drink or two with me in a moment! ”

Wu Wei said very respectfully: "I'm really sorry, I still trouble you to cook yourself." ”

Murong Qingtian said with a smile: "It's not troublesome at all, I usually cook and eat by myself, and I grow my own vegetables, so I can eat with absolute confidence!" ”

Before Wu Wei came, he thought that Murong Qingtian, as the old leader of the Wolf Gang, was such a serious and terrible old man, but he didn't expect to find out after meeting that the other party was so amiable, and even Wu Wu saw a trace of his grandfather's shadow in him.

After the wine and food were served, Murong Yan did not stay to eat, but said hello and went down the mountain and left. Before leaving, Murong Yan said to Wu Wei that if he wanted to go down the mountain at night, he could call him on his mobile phone, and left his mobile phone number to Wu Wei. However, Murong Qingtian said: "Xiao Wu will stay tonight, and you will come to pick him up early tomorrow morning!" ”

Wu Wei originally wanted to refuse, but Murong Qingtian insisted on asking him to stay for one night, and in the end, Wu Wu had no choice but to agree. He first called Lan Muxue, so as not to make her worry about himself, and then sat down to eat and drink with Murong Qingtian with peace of mind.

After Murong Yan left, there were only two people left, Wu Wei and Murong Qingtian, and the sky was completely dark, only the living room was brightly lit, and the old and the young were pushing the cup and changing the lamp under the lamp.

After two glasses of white wine, Murong Qingtian didn't talk about anything important except for chatting with Wu Wei about some inconsequential topics about his life experience. When the third glass of wine was almost finished, Wu Wei finally couldn't help but ask, "Old man, you must have called me here not just to drink and chat with you, right?" Listening to Murong Yan, you want to talk to me about Shangxian Village, I'm curious what you know about Shangxian Village? ”

Murong Qingtian smiled and said, "The first purpose I invited you to come is indeed to get to know you, Mr. Xiao Wu's name has been very loud recently, even I, an old man who has returned to the mountains and forests, have heard about your deeds!" At a young age, he became Lan Mingyu's guest, and because of all kinds of strange experiences, he became a special human being, and after becoming a human being, not only did he not help the abuse, but instead led a group of human masters to take the old nest of the Lu Dao forces in one fell swoop, and he was really a hero out of a teenager! ”

Wu Wei was a little embarrassed after being praised by Murong Qingtian: "You have won the award, in fact, I myself am confused, not as powerful as you said." ”

"It's you who are too modest!" Murong Qingtian praised, but after saying this, he straightened his face, and then said: "The second purpose of your invitation is what you just asked, about Shangxian Village. To tell you the truth, I sent someone to Shangxian Village a few days ago, and found that the village was empty, and there was a problem with the eye of the String Moon Array. I know that you also went to Shangxian Village some time ago, and I would like to ask, did you find any clues when you went to Shangxian Village, and why did Shangxian Village become the way it is now? ”

Wu Wei asked in surprise, "Do you know the String Moon Array?" ”

Murong Qingtian nodded: "Not only do I know about the String Moon Array, but our family also has some relationship with the String Moon Array!" ”

After Murong Qingtian finished speaking, Wu Wei was even more surprised: "You are not from Shangxian Village, how did you know about the String Moon Array, can you please explain it in detail?" Wu Wei knew that the villagers of Shangxian Village were all surnamed Qin, and Wu Wei had never seen any other surnames in the village except for him and his grandfather, so he judged that Murong Qingtian should not be from Shangxian Village.

Murong Qingtian also replied truthfully: "It is true that our clan is not from Shangxian Village, but we have also lived near Shangxian Village, this is the secret of our clan, and it should not be told to outsiders. But you're different, because you and your grandfather both have a relationship with Shangxian Village, so it doesn't hurt to tell you. ”

Speaking of this, Murong Qingtian did not continue, but paused, and then asked, "Before telling you the secret about our clan and the String Moon Array, you have to answer my question truthfully, what happened to Shangxian Village, what went wrong with the String Moon Array?" ”

Wu Wei thought for a moment and replied, "Regarding the String Moon Array, I didn't find the Formation Eye last time I went, so I don't know what the problem you are talking about. I only know that fifty years ago, in order to fight against the Ancestral Lu, a human being once took a small piece of spirit stone from the Five Elements Stone Talisman in the Eye of the Array. ”

Murong Qingtian asked, "Could it be that what you are talking about are the five spirit runes?" They were taken off on the array eye? ”

Wu Wei nodded and said, "Yes!" ”

Murong Qingtian said thoughtfully: "Fifty years ago...... Shouldn't it be a problem now? ”

Wu Wei looked at Murong Qingtian's puzzled look, and continued: "As for why Shangxian Village became like this, it is mainly related to the seal of Guanyin Mountain, the loosening of the seal on Guanyin Mountain to suppress drought has led to the exposure of evil qi, and the villagers have also been infected with a special plague because of this. ”

Wu Wei simply talked about the affairs of Shangxian Village, including the matter of the seal of Guanyin Mountain, but did not tell the hiding places of the villagers. Murong Qingtian frowned after hearing this, and was silent for a long time before he spoke: "I see, I have only heard the older generation talk about the seal on the Guanyin Mountain and the legend of the Drought Fish, but I didn't expect the Drought Fish to really exist!" ”

Wu Wei said: "To be honest, I haven't seen the existence of the Drought Fish, but I can be sure that the things sealed on the Guanyin Mountain are definitely the source of the existence of the Dry Dao!" ”

Murong Qingtian nodded and said, "Anyway, if that seal is loosened, it will indeed be a great hidden danger to human beings. Moreover, I think that the recent problems of the String Moon Array must have something to do with the seal. ”

Wu asked suspiciously, "Now can you tell me, how did you know about the String Moon Array?" Also, what is the origin of your family and the String Moon Array? ”

Murong Qingtian took a sip of wine and said slowly, "I can tell you my family's secrets, but you have to promise not to tell them!" ”

After Wu Wei swore that he would not tell the secret, Murong Qingtian told Wu Wu the secret of their family.
