【940】The Past, Tempering!

"Huh?"

"You...... It turns out that you are the grandson of the Venerable Pingyou? ”

As soon as my words fell, everyone couldn't help but be dumbfounded, and the eyes that looked at me were filled with awe. Immediately, I saw the old patriarch nodding with a sudden realization on his face: "Then it's no wonder!" ”

"I'll just say, I should have thought a long time ago, apart from the 'Pingyou Venerable', who could cultivate such an excellent grandson!"

"Uh-"

The words of the old patriarch made me speechless, and the grandson of the old king next door should be naturally powerful?

"That's right!"

Shaking his head, I didn't bother to explain anything to them, since everyone had met frankly now, I naturally had nothing to worry about, so I asked, "You should be from Longhu Mountain, right?" How did you come to the Nine Hells of Purgatory? ”

"Alas! It's hard to put it into words......"

With a long sigh, the old patriarch had obviously guessed that I would have such a question, and he didn't intend to hide it, so he told me everything about it.

As expected, they were indeed from Longhu Mountain, and I had never doubted this.

Whether it is the head token engraved with the word "Dragon and Tiger" before, or Zhang Kaiyang's bloodline, it has already proved everything to me, and it is just a further confirmation at this time.

And the reason why they appeared in the Nine Shades Purgatory was because of a rebellion in Longhu Mountain fifty years ago, to be exact, it should be the "Heavenly Master's Mansion" on the treasure island!

According to the old patriarch, their vein is actually the "true root" of Longhu Mountain, otherwise the token of the head of Longhu Mountain would not have been kept in his hands.

Sixty years ago, the Jiang dynasty collapsed violently, and when it defeated the treasure island, it not only coerced many business and political dignitaries, but also brought a large number of Taoist elites to the treasure island!

As the leader of the Dao Sect at that time, Longhu Mountain was the focus of their attention!

At that time, the army of the national government pressed the border, and Longhushan was directly divided into two factions, one faction insisted on staying in the Taoist ancestral court, and the other faction wanted to follow the Jiang family to the treasure island.

And the branch where the old patriarch is located originally belonged to the former, and he didn't want to leave the Taoist ancestral court. However, a large number of relatives at that time had already been taken to the treasure island in advance, and they finally chose to compromise, also went to the treasure island, and established the "Heavenly Master's Mansion" at that time.

At that time, the old patriarch was actually only a half-old child, but his father was the "Heavenly Master" at that time. They originally thought that as long as they compromised and went to the treasure island, everything would slowly get better, so what should they do.

Unexpectedly, the group of people who went to the treasure island also rebelled not long after the establishment of the "Heavenly Master's Mansion". At that time, the Jiang family was still daydreaming of a "counteroffensive", and even asked them to sneak back to the mainland to carry out a secret assassination.

The old patriarch and others were naturally unwilling, so they clashed with the people of the "national government", so that in the end, the two sides fought.

Although the "Heavenly Master's Mansion" at that time was full of talents, the people's hearts were not aligned, and they were finally broken by the people of the "National Mansion". In that purge, I don't know how many descendants of Longhu Mountain all died in the hands of the "national government".

The losses are particularly heavy, that is, the people of the old patriarch's lineage, because they are the "roots" of Longhu Mountain, in order to completely control the "Heavenly Master's Mansion", the government at that time can be described as a master, crazy pursuit and killing, even if some of them fled directly overseas, but in the end they still could not escape their pursuit.

Seeing that the situation was not good, the "Zhang Tianshi" at that time, that is, the father of the old patriarch, could only hand over his head token to the old patriarch and asked him to go to the Daomen of the mainland for help.

It's a pity that when the old patriarch secretly fled back to the mainland, it happened to coincide with the ten years of turmoil in the mainland. As soon as he landed on the shore, he was arrested on the spot by the Religious Affairs Bureau, which had also just been established, and was ready to be escorted back to the imperial capital for trial.

Just when he was in despair, he met the two brothers and sisters of the Maoshan Sect at that time, one of them was my grandfather, and the other was Xia Wuren.

At that time, Xia Wuren had not turned against my grandfather, and with the help of their brothers and sisters, the old patriarch escaped. I was about to follow my grandfather and Xia Wuren to Maoshan Sect for help, but they were chased and killed by the masters of the national government!

In the end, he fled to the territory of the "Tianchi Palace" in Changbai Mountain, and finally with the help of the Tianchi Palace, he finally escaped the pursuit. At this time, the old patriarch had already learned about his father's death from the mouth of Tianchi Palace, and he was disheartened, so he never left Tianchi Palace.

Later, my grandfather and Xia Wuren rescued some people one after another, and they were also sent to Tianchi Palace, until the outbreak of the "Dark Turmoil" more than 20 years ago, Tianchi Palace was finally imprisoned in order to suppress purgatory, and the old patriarch and his party were also trapped here, and finally developed into the current tribe......

"My God......"

After listening to the old patriarch's story, I was shocked, I never expected that there would be such a tortuous story here.

They actually had a chance to get out of here, because according to him, my grandfather had been here more than once. Even not long ago, Ling Feng and the old palace master of Tianchi Palace and others also found them, but the old patriarch insisted on refusing to leave, because he had already agreed with my grandfather that he would build this place into a springboard for counterattacking the "Nine Shadows Purgatory" in the future in his lifetime!

Unless the "Nine Hells of Purgatory" is completely pacified, they will never leave this place.

But just because they don't want to leave doesn't mean I don't want to leave either! At this time, I can't wait to leave here, I have disappeared for so long, and I don't know what happened to Xia Xiaoyi and them outside, whether they have left the "Penglai" fairy island safe and sound!

And if they had gone away safely, and had not seen me for so long, they would have been extremely anxious.

Since Lingfeng, the old palace master and the others all had a way to leave this place, there was a way to return to the great world here, so I couldn't wait to ask the old patriarch again how to leave this place.

The old patriarch said frankly that there is indeed a way to return to the world here, but this road is full of dangers! So he didn't tell me, but asked me to stay here for a while, and when I could completely resist the rules of this place, he would naturally tell me the way back.

Although I was very anxious about this, I did not object to it.

Speaking of which, my grandfather was kind to him, and I also saved them just now, so I think he shouldn't hurt me, and since he insists on refusing to tell me now, it means that the way back is really dangerous.

In that case, then I might as well stay here for a while, to be honest, I'm actually quite interested in the rules of the Heavenly Dao in this place as well!

Sooner or later, we will definitely have a battle with the "Nine Shades of Purgatory", and this day is getting closer and closer! Now that I have finally come here, taking this opportunity to sharpen myself and adapt to the rules of the Heavenly Dao here will obviously be of great benefit to me in the future.

In the next few days, I began to practice frantically, but the result was very fruitless. Because I always felt that there was a force in the underworld that was suppressing me, especially when the "Tai Chi Dao Diagram" stopped working, my cultivation plummeted, and at one point even fell below the realm of "refining gods and transforming voids"!

No wonder Zhang Kaiyang and others didn't believe that I came from the world across the border, indeed, if there was no protection of the "Tai Chi Dao Diagram", my current cultivation would indeed be not much better than him.

In this way, this Zhang Kaiyang can be regarded as a talent, if he hadn't been suppressed by the rules of heaven and earth here, and put aside the world, he would probably have already broken through the realm of "refining gods and transforming voids"!

After a long day of penance, I had to change my strategy, and on this day, I found the old patriarch and planned to leave the tribe and go to the nearby primeval forest.

And the reason why I want to go to the primeval forest is naturally not for sightseeing, but because there are countless powerful beasts hidden in that place, and in many places, even the old patriarch and others have not really set foot in them!

So I'm going to go to that place to sharpen myself and see if I can further improve myself in the life-and-death struggle with the alien beasts.

At first, the old patriarch actually refused, but in the end, he couldn't resist me and reluctantly nodded. However, he also has a request, that is, he must bring Zhang Kaiyang, saying that Zhang Kaiyang has followed them to hunt in the periphery of the primeval forest since he was a child, and he is very familiar with the surrounding places.

And I don't understand what the old patriarch means, he clearly wants me to take Zhang Kaiyang to go in and sharpen myself. And I just didn't need someone to lead the way for me, so I didn't guess him, so I readily agreed.

To be honest, I'm actually quite optimistic about Zhang Kaiyang, compared to some of his peers in the world, his mind is actually quite mature. This, from the fact that he calculated me at the beginning, took the risk to take away the Fire Spirit Grass, and even captured me back to the tribe in the end, all showed his extraordinary mind.

"Great!"

Soon, the old patriarch ordered someone to call Zhang Kaiyang, and when he heard that I was going to enter the primeval forest to practice, and he would take him with him. Zhang Kaiyang couldn't help but look happy, nodded quickly, and went down to prepare.

Early in the morning of the second day, Zhang Kaiyang and I left the tribe directly, and along the way, this kid was like a chatter, constantly asking me about the things in the "big world" outside.

In fact, it's no wonder that this kid was born here since he was a child, and he doesn't know how wonderful the outside world is. When he heard me talk to the old patriarch about some things in the outside world, he could only imagine it in his mind.

However, seeing that he was so yearning for the outside world, I couldn't help but have an idea in my heart, that is, when I left, if the conditions allowed, why not take him out with me?
