The hoarse and vicissitudes of life, with endless sorrow, echoed in this empty room.

"......Huh" sighed, and the old woman's eyes revealed endless sorrow, and murmured, "Just like a puppeteer, there are only puppets left, and there are no more informants." ”

Qin Yu looked at it in a daze, he didn't know what to say, such a sigh, although he listened to it with a sadness, but that's all, he couldn't understand the feelings of the old woman.

As if she felt that she had lost her temper, the old woman laughed self-deprecatingly, waved her hand, and added a chair in front of her, which looked very old: "Sit down." ”

Qin Yu was not pretentious, he sat down directly opposite the old woman, and said, "The seniors called the juniors to come, didn't they let the juniors come to listen to the seniors' sighs, right?"

"Huh...... Of course not, Fang Cai is just touching the scene, the reason why I saw you this time is because you took a picture of the Four Waters Compass, if you are not a formation mage, you will not know its true value, and you will not be able to pay such a high price. The old woman said in a word.

Qin Yu nodded, it is true, the Four Water Compass is at most a life-saving tool in the hands of ordinary people, and it is difficult to say whether it is reliable or not.

But in the hands of the array mage, the value is magnified geometrically, as if now in his hands, it is a cold-blooded killing array that can kill super masters.

The old woman looked at Qin Yu and continued: "So, I thought that there was another formation mage in the Imperial City, and I wanted to meet through you, but I didn't expect this person to be you. ”

Even now, the old woman still couldn't help but sigh in her tone when she mentioned this matter, she had lived for such a long time, she had seen one formation mage after another, and she had passed away one after another, and there were fewer and fewer formation mages in the world, and this was the first time she had seen someone in the younger generation who could practice formation.

"I thought that heaven and earth were extinct, and the formation would die, but it seems that after all, it is the path of the heavens and the earth, leaving a trace of the possibility of inheritance for the formation mage. The old woman said.

Qin Yu was surprised, it was very strange that the old woman cared so much about the survival of the formation, and couldn't help but speak: "Could it be that the predecessor is also a formation mage?"

The reason why I asked this is entirely because the previous formation was issued through a puppet, which obviously belonged to the puppet itself before its death, and was not the means of the old woman.

In Qin Yu's expectant gaze, the old woman shook her head and said, "It's an old friend of mine, now in the palace, I can't let go of the obsession in my heart, I grieve for him." ”

Qin Yu's heart was shocked, and he instantly thought of someone, Xia Dong had told him before that Xia Aolong had used his own blood to renew the life of a formation mage, and no one in the entire royal family had such treatment, it seemed that the person in their mouth should be the same person.

This made Qin Yu couldn't help but be a little interested in this formation mage, and the two top figures were willing to work for him, I'm afraid it was not just the identity of the formation mage, right?

After that, what made Qin Yu even more unexpected was that the old woman actually wrote a letter of recommendation directly on the spot, telling him to go and see the formation mage in the palace, which was considered a request from her.

Qin Yu took the envelope and nodded dumbly, he didn't expect the old woman to be able to do this for that array mage, he became more and more interested in that formation mage.

After that, the old woman didn't say a word to the array mage, but stared at Qin Yu, nodding her head as if she were looking at a treasure.

Qin Yu's heart was numb, and he couldn't help but ask, "Senior, are you doing this again?"

He felt that all these old monsters who had lived for hundreds of years were not very normal, and it was really difficult to figure out, and he didn't know what they wanted to do next.

The old woman smiled, stared at him and suddenly asked, "Do you know all kinds of immortal inheritances in this world, why they can be immortal and passed down through the ages?"

Qin Yu was stunned for a moment, he really hadn't thought about this question carefully, he thought about it when he heard it, and said, "Naturally, it has a deep background, strong strength, and good management." ”

"Haha......" the old woman laughed, shook her fingers, and said, "Yes, no, that's just a small part of the reason." ”

Qin Yu was puzzled, he thought that what he said, as long as a family does it, it should be able to survive immortally in the long river of history, but the other party actually said that it was only a small part, which made him really confused.

The old woman was full of wrinkles, and a smile appeared on her face like an old bark, and said: "If you only meet these conditions, at most, you will ensure that the family will not be defeated for a hundred years, and will not disappear for a thousand years, if you want to be immortal, hehe......"

"So what?" At this time, Qin Yu was also interested, and he also wanted to know how those families managed to inherit for thousands of years, and even cross the era without being defeated.

"No inheritance can last forever, nor can it last forever. The old woman said quietly.

Qin Yu nodded, in this world, there is yin and yang, there is prosperity and decline, just like this heavenly cycle, no one can get rid of it.

The old woman glanced at Qin Yu and said earnestly: "So, if you run out of gas, you won't be able to get through it on your own." ”

Qin Yu frowned, thinking about the meaning of this sentence, feeling that he had grasped something in a flash of inspiration, and feeling that he didn't understand anything.

The old woman didn't pay attention to whether Qin Yu understood or not, but stared at him with interest and asked, "Now, do you know why I want to see you?"

Qin Yu closed his eyes, his brows furrowed deeply, forming a Sichuan character, after a few breaths, he suddenly stretched his brows, opened his eyes and looked at the old bark-like face in front of him, and smiled: "What the predecessors mean is that what makes the immortal family immortal is not how powerful they are, nor how terrifying the inheritance is, but what makes them immortal in this world." ”

"Huh...... Children can be taught. The old woman laughed, her eyes narrowed into a slit.

Qin Yu was silent, he already knew the purpose of the old woman, and now he thought that the same purpose was for Qianmen, but Mu Yatou was more ruthless than everyone else.

"Then I don't know how many people like me have been in the Drunken Immortal Building?" Qin Yu asked with interest.

The old woman frowned slightly, as if her memory was too long, and she thought for a while before shaking her head and said, "Not much, but you are the one with the lowest realm." ”

The corners of Qin Yu's mouth were slightly upturned, the old woman was talking about the realm, not the strength, it seems that the Drunken Immortal Building also chose other people in this imperial city.

The reason why immortality is immortal is because these lineages are good at investing, and they have seen some cultivators promise favors and make good connections when they are still relatively weak or in danger.

For these families, it was just a small price, but if even one of them became the overlord in the future, they would be able to maintain peace for a hundred or even a thousand years.

This is the key to their continuous vitality and stamina.

"I don't understand, what did your building fancy about me?" Sweeping away the distracting thoughts in his heart, Qin Yu asked.

The old woman shook her head and said, "I am willing to see you because of the Four Waters Compass, and the reason why I heard Yulou chose you is because of the black card." ”

"Black card?" Qin Yu frowned, he knew very well now that most of the people with black cards didn't seem to be good at it, and it was not for nothing that people talked about the color change of black cards.

The old woman smiled coldly and said: "The world only knows that the people of the black card are evil, but they don't know how many times the black card has saved the drunken immortal building and the danger. ”

Then the old woman told Qin Yu without reservation that anyone who holds a black card in Zuixianlou is the object of investment in Zuixianlou, regardless of the reason, regardless of the realm, because the black card of Zuixianlou is detected and issued by them through special means, and one of the purposes is to screen investment objects.

"Instead of talking about morality, it is better to talk about interests, in real times of crisis, there are not many people who will help you for morality, but people who will do it for the sake of interests can easily pull a large group. The old woman said with a mocking voice.

Qin Yu was silent, although it was very sad, but this was the case, he completely agreed with the old woman's words.

Since it was said, the old woman was more direct later, telling Qin Yu that as long as she felt that she was valuable enough, she could put forward any conditions to Zuixianlou.

Drunken Immortal Lou will evaluate according to personal value and the conditions proposed, if you think it is worthwhile, you will do it at all costs, and what Zuixian Lou wants is just a favor, an illusory promise for the future.

"Aren't you afraid that if I put forward the conditions, then I will be strong and pat my ass and refuse to admit it?" Qin Yu asked.

The old woman smiled slightly, and replied: "What if you were too powerful at that time, so powerful that it would be a disaster for the Drunken Immortal Tower, and it would be just a matter of words for you?"

Qin Yu was stunned for a moment, and suddenly had a feeling of being speechless, indeed, if that was the case, what reason was there to refuse?

In the end, the old woman gave Qin Yu a small exquisite building, which was crystal clear, with a total of eight floors, and it was completely a miniature version of Tingyu Building.

In the small building, there was an indelible aura on Qin Yu's body.

The old woman told Qin Yu that no matter what the circumstances, anyone who held this small building and opened the seal in front of any Tingyu Building and broke it, could ask for help from Tingyulou and make corresponding requests.

In the end, if the request is fulfilled, the cause and effect will be counted on the owner of the small building.

After Qin Yu took over the small building, the old woman left, and before leaving, she specially told Qin Yu again that she must go to the palace to meet the formation mage, this favor is her personal and has nothing to do with Tingyulou.

Looking at the small building in his hand blankly, Qin Yu couldn't help but take out the token of the Thousand Gate Princes again.

"If I lose one day, I'm afraid these things will become worthless in an instant, right?" Qin Yu laughed to himself.

Then he turned his hand and threw everything into the jade jian, he knew very well that the reason why he was favored was completely because of his strength.

If you don't have the strength to sweep the same level, the pride of fighting thousands of miles, and the heart to compete for the best, you will be wiped out from the investment list of these so-called immortal inheritances.

"It's all external to the body, and it's only true if you're strong enough. Qin Yu was not confused by appearances, but directly saw through the essence of affairs, and the next moment, his heart was like water, he passed through the barrier, pushed open the door, and walked towards the exit of the corridor step by step.
