Volume 2 Rivers, Lakes and Seas Chapter 83 Fang Huzhang Sect Secret Narrative
We sat around the round table, two by two without words, the atmosphere was delicate, the senior sister was angry, the eyes were terrifying, even if there was no mistake, none of us dared to look at her directly, and Wang Yun couldn't stay idle, and after sitting for a while, he ran to watch the old blacksmith strike iron, and he didn't have the consciousness of making a mistake at all, so angry that the senior sister's eyelids jumped.
After about an hour, Master and Uncle Yun finally returned, and behind them, there were two people behind.
As soon as Wang Yun saw them in the blacksmith shop, he hurried back as he had seen them, and said to me that there was a troublesome person outside, and that he felt bad and wanted to hide, and then he ran into the house and closed the door and hid.
Then I heard the old blacksmith greet in a thick voice: "Yo, Elder Xiahou, rare guest!" This is ...... Jiang Zhangjiao, right? ”
"Jiang Yu, polite," a rather calm and indifferent voice, "dare to ask Your Excellency, have we ever met?" It seems familiar. ”
"Hahaha, I've been here for decades, Jiang Zhangjiao often shows up, it's normal to see a few glances occasionally, I'm a strange-looking person, it's easy to leave an impression." The old blacksmith had a big grin.
"Ah...... Yes, yes, that...... Don't bother anymore. "This Jiang Sect Leader is a very easy-going person, and he doesn't have the frame to teach a real person at all.
And Master and Uncle Yun were embarrassed the whole time, and their eyes exchanged with each other from time to time, and they were a little at a loss.
It seems that they have not succeeded in getting rid of this nosy Elder of the Legion......
After greeting each other, the four of them walked through the blacksmith shop to the atrium.
This Jiang Yu Zhangjiao is really like his voice, both in appearance and dress, he is extremely simple and easy-going, and the elegant wind is blowing in his face, and he doesn't know that he thinks it is a certain master of Confucius, with long hair, holding a bun, and decorated with hostas, looking at the age should be about the same as the master, estimated to be about sixty years old.
And that Elder Xiahou Shen is more outstanding, not to mention the gorgeous dress, a horse face is particularly eye-catching, sharp edges and corners, especially the eyes are very lively, dripping and turning, as soon as they come in, they will look at us all over, as if there are many thoughts in it.
We stood up, and Master introduced them to both of us one by one, and we saluted as a sign of respect.
Jiang Zhangjiao also bowed his hand at us, while Elder Xiahou Shen just stood with his arms folded and glared at us.
Although it is natural for the younger generation to salute the elders, Elder Xiahou Shen's behavior is very unpleasant.
Jiang Zhangjiao came to us, his eyes quickly locked on Nian'er in my arms, pointed at her and asked, "It's this fox demon who needs to be consulted?" ”
I nodded, and Master explained Nian'er's condition on the side, but he didn't say anything about why Nian'er was so so.
On the contrary, it was Elder Xiahou Shen who answered: "The master has his own way of regulating his breath, so why bother Jiang Zhangjiao to make a trip himself?" I thought it was some kind of incurable disease, so I might as well take a look at it first, so as not to worry about Jiang Zhangjiao's labor. ”
After saying that, he wanted to stretch out his hand, but the master wanted to stop it, but Jiang Zhangjiao raised his hand first and said: "Alas, Elder Xiahou is exalted, I am a doctor, I strictly follow the way of medicine, it is common sense to cure diseases and save people, I don't know much about the disease of monsters, and I am quite interested, Elder Xiahou will fulfill Jiang." ”
He said this kindly, but there was a feeling of rejection thousands of miles away, Elder Xiahou Shen's hand was blocked halfway, his face suddenly collapsed, and he shrank back with some embarrassment.
Jiang Zhangjiao, as the Fang Hu Palm Sect, has a transcendent status, and as a guest, he must treat each other with courtesy, so Elder Xiahou Shen does not say much.
However, what surprised us even more was that according to what Uncle Yun said, Elder Xiahou Shen was the most unsightly
got a monster, but now his attitude is really unpredictable, could it be because Jiang Zhangjiao was present?
Jiang Zhangjiao continued: "Practicing medicine and avoiding miscellaneous matters, let's go to the east wing. ”
After that, he dragged me to the east wing, I remember that Wang Yun was hiding in that wing!
As soon as I heard Jiang Zhangjiao say this, I was immediately shocked into a cold sweat, because I didn't know whether the troublesome person Wang Yun was talking about was this Jiang Zhangjiao or Elder Xiahou Shen.
However, Jiang Zhangjiao pulled me very resolutely, and I was not allowed to hesitate at all, Master and Uncle Yun wanted to follow, Jiang Zhangjiao glanced back, felt his gaze, and the two of them stopped in unison.
Then I heard Elder Xiahou Shen ask Master in the back: "Sun Tan, when I came, I saw a child in the courtyard, why didn't I see anyone?" ”
"Huh? I guess I'm going to play somewhere......" Master said.
Jiang Zhangjiao dragged me into the room, turned around and closed the door, and then put a talisman on the door.
Watching his movements, I suddenly felt a pang of anxiety in my heart, and I didn't know what this big guy wanted to do.
He turned, frowned, looked into a corner of the room, looked at it for a few seconds, then turned back and very politely sat me down.
I was nervous and a little restless.
And Jiang Zhangjiao turned his hand and said, "Put the fox demon on the table." ”
I didn't dare to ask more, Jiang Zhangjiao's attitude was very friendly and elegant from beginning to end, like a spring breeze, just right, it made people very comfortable, and I couldn't have a little doubt, so I obediently put Nian'er on the table.
Jiang Zhangjiao sat opposite me, stretched out three fingers and put them on the side of Nian'er's neck.
He probed with a serious face, and suddenly asked, "Are you his reincarnation?" ”
My eyebrows jumped suddenly, and Jiang Zhangjiao immediately came up with an answer, saying, "I once heard that Sun Tian combined with a fox demon and gave birth to a mixed-race fox demon, but this one? ”
Looking at Jiang Zhangjiao's serious gaze, I didn't know how to answer, after all, I didn't have much trust in him after all, and I didn't want to tell the information about Nian'er and Uncle Sun.
But I'm worried that he thinks I'm not honest enough, and if I don't want to find out to Nian'er, it will be self-defeating.
Seeing the doubts in my heart, Jiang Zhangjiao retracted his gaze and said, "I am friends of life and death with your master Luo Tianheng, and I also have a few relationships with Sun Tian, you don't have to worry, I am not interested in the fox demon or Sun Tian." ”
Then he looked at the talisman attached to the door and said, "The reason why I am like this is because the wall has ears, your identity is special, and I don't want others to know about what I am going to talk about with you, so I hope you can trust me too." ”
I frowned, feeling that Jiang Zhangjiao was so alert that it didn't seem like a bluff, and suddenly I felt as if we were being watched by others, and my heart panicked.
If it is really as Jiang Zhangjiao said, then he will definitely stand on the same front with us, and if he pulls me in alone, I can also feel that he has a sense of distrust for other people and even the master, and where does this distrust come from?
And now in this room, there are not only the two of us, Wang Yun must also be there, he estimated that he used some means to hide himself, so that Jiang Zhangjiao could not find him.
I hesitated for a moment, thinking about whether to confess Wang Yun, but when I thought that he had a comradeship with Uncle Sun in his previous life, I felt that he should also be trustworthy, and he was a participant and an insider in many things, so I nodded and said, "That's right, Nian'er is the daughter of Uncle Sun and Yang Xian." ”
When Jiang Zhangjiao was talking to me, he had already grasped Nian'er's situation, slowly let go of his hand, and said, "I have already received the news of Yang Xian's death, and please mourn, things are wrong, and I lament a lot." But do you know Yang Xian's identity? ”
Jiang Zhangjiao has no deep relationship with Master Sun and Yang Xian, and if he shows sadness, he is a little hypocritical.
I nodded, "She's from the Qingqiu Fox Clan." ”
Jiang Zhangjiao nodded and said: "The Tianqiu Fox Clan is the descendant of the Qingqiu Fox Clan, and it is also the only candidate for the patriarch of the past dynasties, among which the Tushan Clan is the most orthodox, I recently heard the news that the Qingqiu Fox Clan is gathering people from all over the Tianhu Clan, there may be something big to happen, I guess it may have to face the change of patriarch, the Qingqiu Fox Clan is headed by the mother, and the patriarch must be a woman." It stands to reason that Yang Xian, as a descendant of the Tu Shan clan, is the best candidate for the patriarch, whether she is expelled or not, she will be summoned back at such a critical juncture, and now that she has died in a foreign land, her bloodline inheritance will fall on this daughter, and this daughter has not been expelled......"
Jiang Zhangjiao said, looking at Nian'er meaningfully.
"Jiang Zhangjiao, what do you mean ......" Although he said a lot, the meaning was unclear, and I don't know what he wanted to express in the end.
"The change of patriarch, there will be a change of power, we have been at peace with the Qingqiu Fox Clan for more than fifty years, once the patriarch on the throne is a warlike person, I am worried about ......" Jiang Zhangjiao was halfway through his words, but fell silent.
"You mean, you want Nian'er to sit in the position of the patriarch of the Qingqiu Fox Clan and ensure that the Qingqiu Fox Clan keeps peace with us?" I asked.
He nodded with great certainty, but after a second thought, he said, "But she is still young, and I am also worried that she will be used by others to become a puppet, and her current situation may have to make a choice between humans and demons." ”
Jiang Zhangjiao said a judgment similar to that of his godfather Lu Tong, and unfortunately, Nian'er had already made a choice.
I took out the paper that Nian'er had chosen before and handed it to Jiang Zhangjiao, he understood at a glance, sighed deeply, and said, "It seems that I can only go with the flow." ”
At first, I thought that Nian'er's decision was only related to her and my future, but I didn't expect that it would be related to the future of the entire Qingqiu Fox Clan.
He is a person who cares about the world, the so-called benevolence of the doctor, he doesn't want Qingqiu Fox to have a conflict with us, because once there is a conflict, it will be a disaster, so when he saw Nian'er, he had already given birth to the idea of intervening, but Nian'er's choice instantly broke all his good expectations.
So I casually asked, "So you came here to discuss this matter with your ancestor?" ”
As soon as he heard me mention it, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he said: "This matter is only one of them, there is one more thing, but it worries me the most, since the words have come to this, I think it is better to talk to you, Sun Tian and Luo Tianheng are like brothers, if you have different intentions, he will not hesitate to annihilate your divine consciousness, and turn against the guest." So for now, I've only trusted you. ”
Jiang Zhangjiao's cultivation is extremely high, and he has already seen through the situation in my body in a short period of time, so he will say this.
I saw that his face was solemn, and I thought that it was not a trivial matter, so I straightened up and said, "Please speak." ”
"I understand your ancestor's cultivation, the loss caused by the simple out-of-body thoughts, you can recover after a few days of rest, and it will not let him retreat to recuperate, I heard that after he retreated, I felt that it was wrong, and I came to Yingzhou to investigate, and after a few days, I felt that the atmosphere of your master was a little wrong, and I came and went, and I have been watched!"
What the!
