Chapter 120: Who's Secretly Manipulating the Overall Situation?
While chatting, someone outside ran in, saying that the head of the house had an invitation.
"Huh? Grandpa knows that Li Gongzi is coming? ”
Feng Xian'er wondered.
Li Xiang got up and said, "When you come to the Feng family, you should naturally visit the Feng seniors, and ask the two girls to lead the way." ”
Soon after, the group came to the courtyard garden of Fengjia.
"Grandpa......"
As soon as she entered the courtyard, Feng Xian'er jumped up and ran to the old man sitting by the small lake drinking tea.
He is the current head of the Feng family: Feng Zhongyang.
"Grandfather ......"
Feng Yunyun also stepped forward to give a salute, and then pointed to Li Xiang and the three of them introduced each other.
"Junior Li Xiang, take the liberty to come to your village to disturb!"
"Hahaha, Xiaoyou is a distinguished guest, please can't come, why bother? Quick, please take a seat! ”
Feng Zhongyang's attitude was extremely enthusiastic, not only got up to return the salute, but also took a few steps forward to greet him.
After sitting down, Feng Zhongyang glanced at White Snake and Xiaoqing, and smiled: "The two of you...... Niangniang can also be regarded as a successful cultivator, congratulations! ”
Xiaoqing was stunned, and then asked with a wary face: "Old man, ...... you What do you mean by that? Have you seen me and my sister before? ”
"Hahaha, I haven't seen it, but I've heard people mention it."
Saying this, Li Xiang was also a little stunned, and couldn't help asking: "Senior, who have you heard mention of them?" ”
Feng Zhongyang said with a solemn face: "Ten years ago, I went to Shangqing Palace with another old friend to pay homage to Wuchen Zhenren, and I heard him mention Xiaoyou and these two ...... Girl. ”
Greetings?
Hearing this word, Li Xiang's heart moved.
This fully shows that the status of Wuchen Zhenren in Feng Zhongyang's mind is quite high, so he will say his respects in a respectful tone, not a visit.
"Senior, how could a dustless real person mention us?"
"Hehe, didn't Xiaoyou save Yunyun and Xian'er back then? The old man never forgot it, and mentioned it at the time, saying that he was going to Qingcheng County to thank Xiaoyou in person, but the real person said that Xiaoyou had already retreated and cultivated......
During the conversation, the real person praised Xiaoyou endlessly, saying that Xiaoyou's future achievements are immeasurable. At the same time, he also mentioned two people who often came to the temple to listen to his preaching...... Girl. ”
"Ha, old Taoist priest...... cough, dustless real people are still quite righteous! ”
Xiaoqing couldn't help but feel proud.
Feng Zhongyang was stunned, and then smiled wryly.
The white snake scolded in a low voice: "Xiaoqing, don't talk nonsense. ”
Li Xiang was not surprised when he saw it, and he was lazy to pay attention to it.
At this time, Feng Xian'er couldn't help but smile and said, "Grandpa, do you guess who burned the courtyard of the fourth son of the Ji family?" ”
"Oh? It won't be ......"
Feng Zhongyang couldn't help but glance at Li Xiang.
Li Xiang couldn't help sighing: "That's right, I destroyed it, that guy sent someone to capture me back then......"
After hearing the reason, Feng Zhongyang couldn't help but put down the teacup heavily, and said angrily: "The Ji family's child is too deceitful, this time, the old man will never let him go easily!" ”
"Senior, I was talking to Yun Yun and Miss Xian'er about this before, in the end, is it Ji Zhixing's personal behavior, or is the Ji family secretly manipulating the overall situation?"
Feng Zhongyang pondered for a while: "At present, the situation is confusing...... However, whether it is Ji Zhixing personally or the Ji family, they have neither the courage nor the ability to dare to provoke our Feng family and the Ren family at the same time, behind the scenes, there is a mysterious black hand ......"
As the head of the family, Feng Zhongyang naturally knew more and more details about the inside story and details, and the whole incident slowly unfolded in front of Li Xiang's eyes like a picture scroll.
It happened three months ago.
In other words, it was before Li Xiang destroyed the Ji family's courtyard.
Late that night, Feng's house was suddenly attacked by a group of mysterious people.
As an ancient inheritance family, it can stand for thousands of years, and the heritage of the Feng family can be seen.
The entire manor is not only arranged with exquisite mechanism formations, but also has disciples on duty around the clock, especially in some important places, which are closely guarded.
But that night was very strange, there were about 20 people on the other side, and they quietly touched the most important core location of the Feng family: Feng Pavilion!
Feng Pavilion is a three-story attic, which stores countless ancient books and genealogies...... as well as some special items.
For example, some handbooks, ritual instruments, and so on left by some high-ranking ancestors. On weekdays, even the disciples of the main lineage of the Feng family are forbidden to enter, and they are only allowed to enter and comprehend when necessary.
The most important thing is that there is a secret room under the Feng Pavilion, which is even more important.
Because the treasure of the Feng family's town house, the "Fengming Sword", is treasured in the secret room, even if it is the head of the family, he cannot enter the secret room as he wants, so as not to lose the treasure.
It stands to reason that people from the outside world didn't know these secrets at all, and as a result, the gang didn't know what was going on, avoided all the organs and the disciples on duty, and ran directly to the Feng Pavilion and launched a strong attack......
"Perhaps, there is a providence in the dark. Back then, it was the head of the Ren family who went to visit Wuchen with the old man.
When the two of us said goodbye, Wuchen Zhenren made a few words without a trace......
After coming back, the old man realized for half a month, and finally faintly realized the meaning of his words, and discussed with the eight elders of the Feng family, and quietly changed some of the arrangements of the Feng Pavilion in order to prevent trouble......
It was precisely because of this that the group failed to break into the Feng Pavilion in the first place.
The old man, the eight elders of the clan, and a group of disciples arrived in time to start a fierce battle with the other party.
There are twenty-four or five people on the other side, and their strength is not bad...... Among them, there are two people in particular, who are obviously not from the Central Plains clan, but what they are doing is...... Western Regions Anomaly ......"
Hearing this, Li Xiang couldn't help frowning: "Western Regions Magic? ”
"Yes, both of them use short staff as weapons, and they have been standing on the edge of the battle circle, one summons evil spirits to fight the enemy out of thin air, and the other casts fire dragon magic, which is very powerful......
At this time, Feng Yunyun couldn't help but say: "The evil spirit summoned by the other party is quite difficult, it shouldn't look like an entity, if it is dispersed, that guy can be summoned again, it is very weird." ”
Li Xiang was thoughtful.
It sounds like the other party's path should be summoners and magicians.
After that, the other party saw that the opportunity had been lost and there was no longer a chance to succeed, so they began to flee in all directions. The old man and the disciples in the clan chased and killed, and finally killed five of the other party and captured six alive......
Unexpectedly, before they could extract a confession, the six people vomited black blood one after another and died. ”
"Did the seniors check the identities of these people?"
Feng Zhongyang said with a heavy face: "I only found out the origin of three people, they were disciples of the sect, but they all left the sect a few years ago and disappeared, and the others ...... So far, the root cause has not been found.
Later, we learned that the Ren family had suffered a similar situation on the same night.
The other party quietly avoided all the mechanisms and went straight to the place where the soldiers were hidden...... Similarly, there are also Inhumans from the Western Regions among them.
Obviously, the other party is coming for the Fengming Sword and Qingluan Sword that our two families treasure.
The reason why they were able to skillfully avoid the mechanism and go straight to the treasure place can only show one problem: both of us have traitors who leaked the family secrets to each other, and they want to take away the treasure......
