Chapter 265: Drawing the Scroll
The forbidden star's gaze crossed the tall middle-aged man and landed on the painting on the wall, with a surprised expression, this is an ordinary sketch painting, the painting paper is slightly yellow, looking a little old, and the light or heavy marks on it are still shocking.
The most surprising thing about the forbidden star was not the old scroll, but the characters on it.
At the beginning, the forbidden star thought that he had seen it wrong, he blinked vigorously, and then he was shocked and speechless, his lips opened extremely much, and the whole qi machine was still unstable.
The woman next to her was surprised by the performance of the forbidden star, after all, this is a young man who does not change his color when Mount Tai collapses in front of him, and a cultivator who dares to challenge Dancheng with the cross-border realm, such a character is actually dumbfounded by a painting scroll.
Bai Lu's doubts overflowed in her heart, and she also looked at the painting.
This is a scholar, although it is difficult to distinguish the age, but from his posture, it can be seen that this is a middle-aged man, the thin figure seems ordinary, but after looking at it for a long time, there is a force that catches people's hearts, Bai Lu wants to pat the forbidden star on the shoulder to show comfort.
But before his hand fell, he was shaken aside by the strong energy, and the forbidden star didn't realize his rudeness, because this was all his subconscious action, not from his heart.
His eyes looked at the painting, his breathing became heavier and heavier, his qi surged, and his whole person was like a sharp sword about to be unsheathed, wanting to fight the heavens.
The middle-aged man spoke at this time, his tone was slightly lonely, he said: "I have kept this painting scroll for a full seventeen years, every time I take out this painting, I seem to see the person in the painting, it seems that the two of us are still young, together the wine as a song, singing about the sun, but the years are really ruthless, go away, this farewell is no news." ”
After speaking, the middle-aged man turned around and looked at the forbidden star less than two zhang away in front of him, although he knew that the white-haired young man in front of him had a spell that could be used to fight Dancheng, but he was not afraid.
He looked the forbidden star up and down, his eyes soft, as if an elder was looking at the junior, it was a look of joy and appreciation, and he nodded as he watched.
When Emperor Bai, the head of the Bai family, looked at the forbidden star, the forbidden star stared at the man in front of him.
He was now desperate to know everything, and the sketch figure in this scroll was his father, Banfan, and the scroll appeared here.
Forbidden Star didn't know what kind of relationship the man in front of him had with his father, and he couldn't speak for a while.
He has seen a lot of cruel forbidden stars in this Xiuzhen world, and he has done a lot of himself for such a set of almost rhetoric and temptations, and it is not always so easy to communicate when he goes out, so the silence at this moment may be the best way for him to deal with it.
He was waiting for the White Emperor's hole cards, thinking about his purpose.
Except for his family and brothers, he doesn't believe that there is a good thing for no reason, and likewise, he doesn't believe that there are such good things in this world.
"Hey, I haven't seen my friend in the painting for a long time, I don't know if you recognize him?"
The forbidden star didn't shake his head, didn't speak, his body tensed, and he used a collapse momentum that was both offensive and defensive.
Emperor Bai laughed, and seemed to admire: "It is worthy of his son, this courage and bearing alone are really not much compared to your father back then, I didn't expect Bai to be lucky enough to see his son again today, right?"
Forbidden Star finally couldn't keep calm again, he tried his best to suppress the excitement in his throat and said slowly: "I don't know what you said, the only thing that is certain is that I know the people in the picture, I don't know how Patriarch Bai knows?"
He didn't want to expose himself so quickly, if the initiative was taken by the other party, he would be led away, and it was not wise to rush out of the tray without knowing whether it was an enemy or a friend.
"Oh?" the White Emperor raised his voice and patted the forbidden star on the shoulder, the latter wanted to dodge, but as soon as he moved, he was still slapped squarely.
It's definitely not an ordinary half-step Dancheng!
This is not a demonstration, this is a confession.
The White Emperor showed his true cultivation, this was telling the forbidden star that he could rest assured, after all, if the enemy could be so bold?
Regardless of whether it was true or false, the forbidden star finally relaxed, and he said, "Dare to ask Patriarch Bai, how do you know the person in the painting?"
"It was an era of stormy meetings, the heroes rose together, it was a troubled time, but also an era of great competition, it was very easy to know friends and enemies, this scholar was a peerless Tianjiao, if it weren't for him, my White Emperor would not have gone to the position of the head of the Bai family, so far, I don't know his real name. ”
After a pause, the White Emperor's body turned, stretched out his hand, and the painting scroll appeared in his hand, he glanced at the forbidden star while comparing the person in the painting, he sighed and said: "You and him are really similar, are you sure it's not his son?"
The forbidden star was silent and did not answer, because the answer itself was superfluous at the moment.
Although his face is a little different from that of the forbidden fan, it is still five or six points similar, and this kind of bond between the bloodlines does not mean that you can break free if you want to.
"Whether you admit it or not, I know your identity, you are definitely his son, even if there are similar people, but this breath, the pride in the bones has never fallen at all, you are his son, I naturally will not embarrass you, and I don't need it. ”
"Then what are you looking for me for?" asked the Forbidden Star, confused.
Rolling up the scroll, the White Emperor looked at it reluctantly several times, and handed him to the Forbidden Star, "Seventeen years ago, he said that in ten years, a young man will come here, and this person will save the entire Chaoyang City, and he will hand over this scroll at that time." ”
The forbidden star stretched out his hand to take it, his eyes extremely serious.
"Since you are an old man, how can you keep standing here when you come here? As the words fell, the White Emperor began to walk towards the wall.
One step later, the thick-looking wall suddenly sparkled, and the figure of the White Emperor disappeared.
"Let's go, why are you stunned, speaking of which, according to seniority, you should call me sister, I'm older than you!" Bai Lu joked next to him, not caring about the Forbidden Star's emotions at the moment, this is their advantage as a woman.
It seems to be a joke, but it is actually a reminder that it is a high-level set of almost, killing three birds with one stone, why not!
The forbidden star didn't speak, nodded, and followed closely behind the White Emperor.
A warm streamer flickered, and the two of them came to a fairyland.
The white mist rises and the earth, the mountains are verdant, the meandering water flows, the pavilions and pavilions, and there is a forest not far away, which is lush and green, and it is full of vitality.
There are also a few cranes in the air, chirping and hissing, circling endlessly.
The trail is paved with ordinary spars, therefore, the aura here is more than one and a half points richer than the outside, and the end is a quiet fairyland, which is beautiful and breathtaking!
The White Emperor fluttered and flew to the pavilion in the center of the lake, the white robe of the moon flew away, the posture was extremely chic, the forbidden star followed, the dragonfly dotted the water, and a few vertical leaps crossed the distance of nearly fifty zhang, and landed on the edge of the pavilion.
As for Bai Lu, he rode a crane and floated down in the pavilion, and after sitting down,
Emperor Bai looked at the sparkling lake beside him, his expression was intoxicated, and with a wave of his big sleeves, a tea set immediately appeared on the stone table, which was antique and was actually made of rare spiritual wood.
The lines are beautiful and the veins are clear, so even people who don't know the goods can feel the rhyme.
The White Emperor smiled, "Do you know why Chaoyang City is the center?"
"The Currency Center, the Humanities Center, and the Cultivation Center!" said the Forbidden Star with a smile, staring at the White Emperor with a cold expression on his face.
Feeling the tentative meaning of the people next to him, Bai Di laughed, "You said the first two points very correctly, but the last point of the cultivation center, what do you understand?"
Without the slightest pause, the forbidden star pointed to the water flow below: "The Bai clan has such a big spirit, he actually grabbed the undercurrent of Hengxi and the clan, and it was just not inquired by the outside world, but he was able to achieve harmony and unity with the small world inside, and the Bai family really had a big business." ”
"As for the cultivation path mentioned earlier, there are classics that record that your five major families control the flow of water, and the upper, middle and lower Hengxi are divided by you, and Chaoyang City is close to here, and the closest is only one of them, and the most important thing is that Chaoyang City is full of underground spiritual veins, this is the reason!"
The White Emperor nodded, stretched out a finger of his right hand, and the water flow under the pavilion suddenly stopped, and then a water dragon rose and roared fiercely.
His fingers straightened and hooked, only to see the water dragon break away from the flowing water and shoot at the stone pavilion.
The White Emperor picked up the Lingmu teapot in his hand, and with a bang, the water dragon was extremely compressed in the air, and finally turned into a water dragon and was packed in the teapot.
The Lingmu teapot can not only improve the quality of the tea, but also change the spirituality of the tea, the teapot itself is hard and extremely resistant to high temperatures.
After that, the White Emperor quickly lived to make tea, and a set of actions went smoothly without the slightest sense of disobedience.
The forbidden star looked at it, and the dryness of the whole person began to slowly become dull, and a strong breath of life flowed in the pavilion.
He didn't bother, after all, this was a tea ceremony, not tea drinking at all.
The dividing line between elegance and vulgarity is very low, and the most important thing is that the patriarch of the Bai family does it himself, and the specifications and treatment in this are not ordinary.
About half a pillar of incense, the White Emperor took a deep breath, and the tea was ready.
An extremely rich aura was poured out by the White Emperor, and a small stream of water poured into the teacup, the sound was crisp, and the fragrance was far away.
"Please!"
The forbidden star was also polite and picked up a glass.
He didn't have the slightest politeness, as if he hadn't learned aristocratic etiquette, and drank the tea in his cup as a whole.
The White Emperor laughed: "Haha, interesting, how is it, this tea is not bad?"
Forbidden Star nodded, smashed his mouth, and then sighed: "It's a pity, I haven't tasted anything good......
Bai Lu next to him covered his mouth and smiled, and quipped: "Childe is really an interesting person, do you know what kind ......of tea this is?"
Both father and daughter were smiling, and Forbidden Star knew that there was no mockery.
He put down his teacup, the smile on his face fading.
He stared at the White Emperor, and asked in a calm voice: "Patriarch Bai asked the junior to come here, is it just to drink tea? ”
"Haha, young people are impatient, this tea is called Jianhao. ”
"That's what I'm here for. ”
