Chapter 51
The Qin family in Dongwangcheng is a family with a thousand-year history of cultivating the truth, and like other families, there are two branches, I don't know which generation started, the descendants of that generation are the main family, and the concubines have become side branches.
Qin Jianglan and his sister Qin Xiangyu are from the side branch.
In addition to the fact that the family lives in Dongwang City, the side branches are scattered all over the country, and there is a rule in the clan that all the juniors of the Qin family who have reached the age of eight must be sent to the Dongwang family to receive cultivation.
Qin Jianglan and his sister are naturally the same.
"Jiang Lan, what are you doing here?" Qin Xiangyu went to the back mountain to pick the ripe snow fragrance fruit, which is the main medicinal material for making the blood return pill, she just walked to the snow fragrance tree with the basket, and saw Qin Jianglan sitting under the root of the tree, holding something in his arms.
"Isn't this the practice uniform you wear when you want to see the head of the family tomorrow?" Qin Xiangyu took a closer look and found that there was a small hole in the clothes, she looked at her younger brother's expressionless face and hung his head silently, smiled, put the basket aside, took out the clothes, took out the needle and thread and sewed it for him, "It's okay, my sister will sew it for you." ā
Qin Jianglan looked at the clothes in his sister's hand with seriousness, with a calm face that did not belong to his age, he looked at it silently for a long time, and suddenly said, "Let's go back to Yunyao, right?" ā
"What?" Qin Xiangyu was distracted for a moment and didn't hear clearly, so he asked casually.
āā¦ā¦ They want you to pick the snow fruit alone? Qin Jianglan didn't reply to the sentence in front of her, but raised his head, looked at the red fruits on the branches, and asked with a slight frown.
"Hmm...... They will be tested by the head of the house tomorrow, and I am the only one who comes. Qin Xiangyu smiled softly, the movements in her hands were light and sensitive, and the cracked opening was perfectly put together by her clever use of the stripes on her clothes, and she couldn't see the slightest difference.
"Sister, I miss Yun Yao."
Qin Xiangyu's movements slowed down, glanced at his younger brother, and said with a little gloom in his eyes: "Jiang Lan, Yun Yao doesn't have our home anymore." ā
The Qin family's sisters and brothers died when they were young and lived with their grandmother.
Qin Xiangyu was sent to Dongwang City by his uncle as soon as he turned eight years old seven years ago, and Qin Jianglan also turned eight years old two years ago and was also sent to Dongwanglai, and his grandmother passed away a year ago, and the original home has been occupied by his uncle and aunt, and they can't go back.
Qin Jianglan was silent, stood up for a moment, and said while picking the snow fragrant fruit: "Sister, if you endure it again, when I enter the Xuanxin Sect, I will definitely take you away!" ā
He is a thunder system heavenly spirit root, not only a rare heavenly spirit root, but also a rare attribute inside, as long as he enters the mountain gate, the treatment is definitely better than in the Qin family.
Qin Xiangyu made a thread in his clothes, tore off the thread, looked up at his younger brother while holding his clothes, and said with a gentle smile: "Okay." ā
The two sisters and brothers picked all the snow fragrant fruits required by the task, and one basket couldn't fit it, so Qin Jianglan put it in his practice clothes and walked back with his arms.
Since there are only two sisters and brothers in this generation, Qin Xiangyu and Qin Jianglan, he has been bullied a lot by those of his descendants, but the days have passed peacefully, Qin Jianglan has been waiting for the day when Xuanxin Sect will go down the mountain to accept apprentices, he has been looking forward to it for three years, and finally waited.
The night before the Xuanxin Sect accepted disciples, he was called by the Great Elder of the Qin Family, who first poured him a cup of tea, and asked him a few questions in a very cordial and easy-going manner, without the slightest hint of the unsmiling deep appearance of the past.
Qin Jianglan thought that he felt that he was going to be included in the Xuanxin Sect and wanted to ease the relationship with him, so he didn't care.
But while he was chatting with the Great Elder, he fainted.
When he awoke, he found himself lying in an altar-like place, his limbs tied to the stone floor, and he looked at his surroundings, feeling that he should be underground, with torches hanging on the walls, the light on the walls flickering, and the whole cavern smelling of damp and moldy.
Qin Jianglan frowned, wanting to use his aura to break the iron rope that trapped him, but found that he couldn't do it, he was like a mortal at the moment, with no aura.
"Awake?"
Only then did Qin Jianglan notice that the Great Elder was standing aside, looking at him quietly.
"What do you want to do?" Qin Jianglan asked calmly.
"You don't seem scared at all?" Great Elder Xu didn't expect him to be so calm, and raised his eyebrows in a little surprise.
"......" Qin Jianglan remained silent.
"It's useless if you don't speak, today you are destined to disappear from this world, but it doesn't matter, I will live well for you." The Great Elder said slowly, his voice rising significantly, full of anticipation for the future.
Qin Jianglan turned his head to look at him and said, "Take away." ā
"Do you know about the Takeaway?" The Great Elder was really surprised, but he didn't expect this kid to know quite a lot.
"I've seen it in the library." Qin Jianglan didn't hide it, he was talented, had a high understanding, and had a good memory, he could see ten lines at a glance, so he was often seen sitting alone in the library holding a book to read.
The Great Elder didn't expect that he had already read so many books at a young age, and he didn't know whether to feel sorry for him or happy for himself, and said, "It seems that in the future, there will be one less great power in the cultivation realm, and one more me!" ā
There is obviously something wrong with this sentence, there is one less power, but there is one more of him, doesn't he want to be a power in the cultivation realm in the future?
Although Qin Jianglan noticed this difference, he didn't like to ask questions in the first place, so he just lay quietly on the altar, didn't say anything, and didn't even want to ask about the Great Elder's behavior at the moment.
Seeing him so well-behaved, the Great Elder was in a rare mood and was willing to explain to him, so he held up the thing in his hand and said to him, "Do you know, what is this?" ā
Qin Jianglan glanced sideways and found that what he was holding was a black mass that he didn't know what it was, he pursed his lips tightly, didn't speak, just looked at him with calm eyes like ink.
"This thing, I call it a demonic gift, which means that this is a treasure given to me by the demon god!" The Great Elder held it to Qin Jianglan's side, and smiled at him with a malicious smile, "You will be a little painful in a while, but don't worry, I won't kill you, in fact, I should have taken your body first, and then it would be better to place it, but the atlas said that when this thing is put into the dantian in the body, it will make people very painful, so I have to let you suffer it first." ā
Qin Jianglan's face still didn't change, but the bound hand was tightly clenched into a fist, still exposing his nervousness, the great elder saw it, smiled slightly, as if he had seen something moving, his eyes showed extreme satisfaction.
The mass of things hidden in the black demonic qi was suspended in the air on Qin Jianglan's abdomen, he watched this mass of things slowly disappear into his body, and the moment it touched his body, the sharp pain like a pinprick rose spontaneously, starting from the abdomen to spread to the dantian, limbs, bone marrow, and viscera, until it spread all over the body, the whole body trembled uncontrollably, and his eyelids and face twitched slightly uncontrollably, as if someone was holding a sharp knife and cutting off his flesh one by one, making him so painful that it was difficult to breathe.
Qin Jianglan's face turned pale, he gritted his teeth, didn't let himself make a sound, his hands clenched into fists, his limbs struggled to grind out blood marks because of the pain, and the green tendons on his forehead and neck also broke out due to too much force, and beads of sweat the size of beans appeared, looking very painful.
The Great Elder looked at this scene, and couldn't help but secretly rejoice in his heart, fortunately he was not overconfident and didn't want to come by himself, otherwise this experience of life and death would be his turn.
I don't know how long it took, as the thing settled down in Qin Jianglan's dantian, the painful struggle gradually subsided, and he lay there sweaty, his eyes closed lifelessly, his breathing was so weak that his chest didn't seem to rise and fall, and his breath was like a gossamer, as if his heart would stop beating at any time.
"It worked...... IāI succeeded? The Great Elder was so excited that he couldn't help but exclaim excitedly like a five-year-old child, "Great, I've really succeeded!" ā
He saw in the album that the pain caused by this thing when occupying the dantian was very bearable, once he couldn't bear it, he would die instantly when he occupied the dantian, and once he endured it, he would be considered successful.
The Great Elder was shouting in his mouth Qin Jianglan couldn't hear it clearly, he only felt that his consciousness was far away and very light, as if it was floating in the clouds, and a gust of wind could blow him away, he couldn't feel the existence of his body anymore, his eyelids were heavy, and he just wanted to sleep well.
When Qin Jianglan regained consciousness, he was still in a daze, looking at the top of the grotto above with divergent eyes, not understanding how he could appear here.
When his memory returned, he suddenly remembered that he was captured by the Great Elder to prepare to take the house, so he is okay now, does it mean that the Great Elder has given up on taking the house?
Qin Jianglan hurriedly looked sideways at the place where the Great Elder had been standing, but was surprised to find that he had fallen to the ground motionless, as if he had lost his breath.
Although he didn't understand what happened after he fell unconscious, he knew that he had to flee from here quickly, otherwise he wouldn't go back for a few days, and his sister would be worried.
Qin Jianglan tried to mobilize the aura, and found that the disappeared aura was back, he hurriedly broke the iron rope, endured the unhealed pain on his feet, and limped to the Great Elder's side to confirm whether he was really out of breath.
After confirming, Qin Jianglan's eyes suddenly rose with fierceness, knowing that the Qin family couldn't stay any longer, he burned the body of the Great Elder, gave himself medicine, meditated and healed, and didn't prepare to sneak back to the Qin family quietly to explore the situation until nightfall.
returned to Qin's house and came to the place where his sister lived, Qin Jianglan was surprised to find that his sister's things were gone, Qin Jianglan, who didn't know what happened to his sister, turned his head to find Third Brother Qin, who took good care of their sister and brother.
Third Brother Qin is from his own family, only one year older than his sister, he is a good-hearted person and takes good care of Qin Jianglan's sister and brother, so he is the only person he can think of at this time.
Originally, he thought that his sister was kicked out of the Qin family at most, but Qin Jianglan didn't expect the situation to be more serious, he learned from the mouth of the third brother Qin that his sister was actually given by the elders of the Qin family to a certain Yuanying monk as a furnace.
Qin Jianglan was very angry, but Third Brother Qin was soft-spoken, and he couldn't find out more news, so he had to say goodbye to Third Brother Qin, leave the Qin family alone, and then find a way.
The Qin family used their sister and brother as playthings, although he hated those people very much, but he also knew that he was too weak to avenge his sister and himself, so he thought about finding a sect to apprentice first, and then avenge his sister and himself when he had the strength.
As a result, what he didn't expect was that he was actually measured with demonic energy on the spirit measuring stone, and this time it was like a stone being thrown into the sea and rolling up a thousand waves, and he was surrounded by those spiritual cultivators, and they all attacked him, and they shot mercilessly.
If he hadn't been saved by a passing wandering monk, he would have died at the age of thirteen.
The wandering monk was good at divination, and when he saw Qin Jianglan for the first time, he had a feeling that this son must not be fine, so he rescued him and took him back to the inn to settle down.
Later, after learning what had happened from him, the monk took another hexagram for him, and found that his future might affect all living beings.
The monk was puzzled, and calculated for him a few more times, and got the same result, and he also calculated that he could only have such an effect if he stayed at the Taichumen, and the rest of the place showed the appearance of death.
This monk happened to be close friends with the head of the Taichu Sect at that time, and after calculating this result, he decided to send the person himself to explain the situation.
On the way, the monk also calculated his fortune for him, and after the result was calculated, the monk shook his head and sighed and said to him: "You are destined to be alone, and everyone who is close to you will not die well." ā
Although Qin Jianglan didn't want to believe it, this sentence had always pressed on the bottom of his heart, so that in the next hundreds of years, he would still unconsciously get away from others and dare not get too close.
And after the monk brought him to the Taichu Gate to explain the situation with his friends, the head of the sect at that time immediately frowned when he learned that he had demonic energy, and bluntly said that he did not dare to take him in, after all, he was not alone, and he had to consider the sect.
No matter how much the monk persuaded him, he was about to give up on persuading his friend to take Qin Jianglan away, Bai Yao sent a message to the head of the sect, saying that Liangyi Feng was willing to accept him.
So far, Qin Jianglan has stayed in Liangyi Peak until now.
