Chapter 013: The Secrets of the Liu Family and the Opportunity to Evolve

Inside the metal door, the group walked forward silently, only the sound of footsteps sounded. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

It is a spiraling corridor, about three meters high and two meters wide, enough for two people to walk side by side, and the top is evenly spaced with luminous panels, emitting a clear milky white cold light, illuminating the entire corridor transparently.

After walking for about ten minutes, a protective door appeared in front of me.

Stationmaster Liu stepped forward and pressed his hand to the center of the door, and a faint light flashed along the edge of his palm.

With a low roar, the heavy protective door slowly opened.

Through this door, a huge underground space appears in front of everyone's eyes. Seeing the scene in this space, Su Ye felt a buzz in his head, and after coming to Lanyang City, his emotions became irrepressibly excited for the first time......

As if being hit in the chest by a heavy hammer, Su Ye's pupils shrank suddenly, and he felt his heart beat for a moment, and then beat wildly, sending hot blood to every corner of his body, making his pale face gradually become ruddy.

It's hard to describe this feeling in more words.

The bracelet on his right wrist vibrated silently at a very high frequency, and a stream of hot energy ran down his arm, reaching the back of his neck like lightning, and then rushing straight to the back of his head, bringing indescribable pain.

"Woo......"

Suffering from the sudden sharp pain, Su Ye felt a splitting headache, his body suddenly became stiff, he snorted, and subconsciously clenched his fists.

"Ono, what's wrong with you! Uncomfortable? Although Su Ye tried his best to restrain himself, Su Lan beside him still noticed his abnormality at the first time, and asked with concern, with a worried look, and his eyes were almost dripping.

"I ...... It's okay......"

Finally relieved, Su Ye relaxed his body, grinned, reached out and rubbed his face, inadvertently wiped a fine bead of sweat oozing from his forehead, and his face was flushed.

And in fact, it was not so easy, the aftermath of the energy impact was still echoing in his mind, and the shadow of his childhood was about to come out in the depths of his consciousness, impacting Su Ye's mind, and at the beginning, he even almost lost control.

I didn't expect this place to be so ......

Su Ye didn't know how to describe his current mood for a while, so he didn't want to!

When I looked up, the scene of underground space jumped into view.

This is a spherical space with a diameter of about 100 meters, except for the bottomless crypt at the bottom, the whole body is covered with strong and heavy alloy plates, and there is not the slightest gap in sight, as if it was cast as a whole. On the alloy plate, there are countless strange runes densely etched, which are exactly the same as the runes seen on Huarong Road before, and they seem to be from the same person's hand.

Su Ye didn't know why he had such thoughts...... At this time, he felt that these runes were somewhat familiar, probably somewhere he had seen them, but he couldn't remember them.

This kind of thought was not there when he first saw the runes on Huarong Dao, but when he arrived at this place, it may have been because of the impact of energy, and when he saw the same runes again, he actually vaguely had a sense of déjà vu, which was a bit absurd. After all, since he could remember, he had lived in that destroyed western town since he was a child, and he had never left, and it was impossible for him to see such a thing, unless...... This sigil is related to his own deliberately forgotten childhood experiences.

"Uh......" Thinking of this, Su Ye's head hurt terribly, so he quickly dispelled this thought.

The huge space is empty, and in the center of the dome is inlaid with a huge multi-faceted spherical crystal, exuding a faint red glow, which makes people can't help but palpitate when they look at it. The diameter of this crystal was nearly ten meters, it was terrifyingly large, and it was filled with thick energy fluctuations, and the aura in it lifted Su Ye's spirits - wasn't this exactly the feeling he felt outside the warehouse!

The position they were in now connected to the protective door behind them, a platform that clinged to the inner wall of the spherical space.

This platform is located at two-thirds of the height of the entire space, and there are eight of the same platforms in the space, all of which are located at the same height, connected by an alloy fenced boardwalk, and circular, forming a monolithic structure large enough to accommodate hundreds of people. Each platform is equipped with a set of lifting facilities to connect the bottom of the space, but the platform with an exit is only the one where Su Ye and the others are.

"Master Su, that's what I'm talking about!" Standing close to the guardrail, Stationmaster Liu turned around, showed a confused look, and said with great solemnity, "Liu wants to ask Gongzi Su for help, and it is in the crypt below......"

"Now tell us what you're talking about!" Su Ye began to lose patience with Liu Bamao's tricks, if it weren't for all kinds of signs that this matter was related to him, he wouldn't let the other party be in the mood to sell here.

"Cough, here's the thing......" Seeing Su Ye's thoughts, Stationmaster Liu no longer hid it, and told the whole story of the matter, "Young Master Su should know that the legendary family guarding Lanzhou is the Mu family...... Liu's family was originally a subsidiary family of the Lanzhou Mu family, and it was ......"

It turned out that Liu Bamao's great-ancestor was a rare evolutionary who awakened on his own after decades of the Great Catastrophe.

Before becoming an Evolver, Stationmaster Liu's great-grandfather was just an ordinary soldier in Lanyang City, responsible for guarding the treasury in the post city.

Once, by chance, he accidentally triggered the mechanism hidden in this storehouse, and discovered the entrance to the underground secret passage, but was blocked by the extremely difficult Huarong Dao. The great-ancestor of the Liu family was just a pawn at the time, but his mind was relatively shrewd, and he realized that this discovery was extraordinary, so he did not make a noise.

Afterwards, the great-ancestor of the Liu family took every opportunity to find a way to crack this extremely difficult Huarong Dao, and it took several years to finally crack it successfully and enter this underground space that ordinary people can't imagine.

At that time, the battle line in the western realm had advanced thousands of kilometers away, and the atmosphere of Lanyang City was relaxed, giving the great ancestor of the Liu family enough time to explore the underground space, and without anyone noticing, he finally got a great opportunity to become an evolutionary.

The details of this process, Stationmaster Liu did not elaborate, only told Su Ye that it was through this opportunity that the great-ancestor of the Liu family was able to awaken the evolutionary bloodline and become an evolutionary.

Shortly thereafter, the fighting on the western front was tense and the military was forced to requisition a large number of reserve troops.

The great-ancestor of the Liu family, who had just awakened to the evolutionary, was also recruited to participate in the front-line combat troops, and shined on the battlefield with the ability of the evolutionary, and was appreciated and reused by the commander of the group army where he was located, that is, the head of the Mu family at that time, and absorbed it into the Mu family through marriage, and ascended to the sky in one step.

Ten years later, the great-ancestor of the Liu family died in the decisive battle of the Federation to win the victory in the Western Territory, leaving behind the widow of the Mu family and his only son, who was less than ten years old, that is, the grandfather of Stationmaster Liu.

An evolutionary like the Liu family's great-ancestor who awakened on his own after decades of the Great Catastrophe was not stable.

As the bloodline inheritor of the great-ancestor of the Liu family, even if the grandfather of the Liu family fused the bloodline of the Mu family and became an evolutionary, his talent was not high, and he was not a direct descendant of the Mu family, so he did not receive the key cultivation of the family's strength, his strength was mediocre, and his status was shaky.

Later, when it came to Stationmaster Liu's father and his own generation, two generations before and after, none of the more than 20 Liu family disciples awakened the evolutionary bloodline, which made the Liu family fall into an extremely difficult situation.

The Mu family, which has been inherited for a hundred years, has more than one affiliated family, and as a subsidiary family, whether there is a strong evolutionary in the family or not, the impact on the strength and status is very different, and the Liu family has no successor, so it will lose its foundation.

In this world, to put it bluntly, it is still the law of the jungle.

Your Liu family's strength is weak, but it occupies the quota of a subsidiary family, as well as the corresponding large amount of resources, which will naturally cause others to covet it. Therefore, several other affiliated families with the inheritance of the Evolutionary were unscrupulous in dealing with the Liu family, doing everything they could to squeeze out the Liu family in order to squeeze out the Liu family's position and the resources they had.

And with the death of two generations of Mu family heads who were kind to the Liu family, the situation of the Liu family has become even worse!

In order to maintain the status of the Liu family as much as possible, the grandfather of the Liu family was willing to be a cow and a horse in the Mu family for more than 20 years, and finally died eight years ago due to overwork, which made the Liu family fall into a situation of exhaustion and completely lost the favor of the contemporary head of the Mu family.

Coupled with the persecution of several other affiliated families, in just two or three years, the Liu family fell from the position of the affiliated family and became a vassal of the Mu family, and since then it has been declining day by day.

There is a difference between the word vassal and vassal, but there is a difference between cloud and mud.

In the eyes of ordinary people, the Liu family is still a wealthy family, but in front of the powerful affiliated families, the Liu family can only be slaughtered.

After losing the status of the affiliated family, several affiliated families of the Liu family who had suspicions in the past came to the door one after another, and used various means to take advantage of it, and soon emptied the Liu family's family funds. Even so, those families were not satisfied, and repeatedly slandered in front of the head of the Mu family, trying every means to completely drive the Liu family out of Lanzhou, and even to exterminate them all.

Over the years, everyone in the Liu family has been in danger.

In this stormy background, in order to protect himself and for the illusory possibility of a comeback, Liu Bamao befriended the secular forces of Lanzhou, married the daughter of a nouveau riche surnamed Jiang, and used the residual influence of the Liu family to make the "father-in-law" become a standing committee member of the Lanzhou Chamber of Commerce, in exchange for a large amount of money from the Jiang family, and he became a stationmaster in Lanyang City......

……

After explaining all the secrets of the Liu family's past, Stationmaster Liu seemed to be drained of his strength all of a sudden, and said to Su Ye with a very lonely expression: "The ugliness of the family should not be publicized...... Saying these is also to hope that Su Gongzi believes in the sincerity of the next, if there is no great help from Su Gongzi, what he wants to do in the next few years will only be a flash in the pan......"

Liu Bamao soothed his emotions for a while, and said with a straight face: "Before the death of my great-grandfather, I left a notebook...... It's just that he was in a hurry and didn't have a chance to explain, so this notebook didn't reach my grandfather, otherwise...... There's no way my Liu family has fallen to this point......"

"It wasn't until five years ago, when I was tidying up my grandfather's study, that I found this notebook in the dark grid, which recorded the details of my great-grandfather's discovery of the underground tunnel and the eventual opportunity to evolve...... Including the method of opening the mechanism, as well as all the details of the method of obtaining the opportunity......" Speaking of this, Liu Bamao's eyes were red, and he was obviously excited.

"The reason why I invited Su Gongzi here is to ask Su Gongzi to help him and help Liu get the opportunity left by the great ancestor of the Liu family for my descendants of the Liu family - to become an evolutionary!"
