Chapter 8: The Secret of Yanshan (2)
Yue Yang's facial muscles twitched violently, and the moment the familiar voice sounded in his ears, he almost expected his miserable end soon, and at this time he felt full of regret in his heart, if he threw away these snake meats, why would there be so much trouble.
However, there is no regret medicine to sell in this world, I saw an old man with a crane hair and a childish face, dressed in a dark green robe, who quickly came outside the house, and pushed the door in without even knocking on the door.
He was naturally the owner of the giant python, Elder Lu, and at this moment, he saw Yue Yang's demeanor in his eyes, and couldn't help frowning, and said, "Boy, what kind of expression do you have? Did the old man poison your own father or your own mother? I am so unwelcome!"
Yue Yang was stunned, he was shocked in his heart, didn't the other party come to Xingshi to ask for guilt?
Suppressing the doubts and uneasiness in his heart, Yue Yang stood up and walked towards Elder Lu calmly, and asked tentatively, "Elder, is there something wrong with visiting late at night?"
Elder Lu glanced at Yue Yang angrily and said, "Can't you come if you're okay?"
"Senior, where are you talking about, your arrival has simply made the humble house shine, and I can't ask for it if I change my demeanor in the silence!"
"Don't slap me on the back, just the expression you just had, I don't know and think I'm your father-killing enemy, I think you're wishing I didn't show up!"
"Elder, there is no such thing!"
Elder Lu suddenly felt that Yue Yang was a little abnormal, and asked, "By the way, you shouldn't have some ulterior secrets, right?"
"No way!" Yue Yang shook his head desperately.
"Forgive me, I don't dare to hide from the old man!"
Elder Lu snorted coldly, rubbed his hands and walked towards the iron pot, his cloudy old eyes staring at the iron pot were shining: "Stinky boy, don't think that I don't know your mind, I must be afraid that I will compete with you for the delicious food in this pot, hum, it's really a little family!"
If this really made Elder Lu see the contents of the pot, then it would be fine!
I saw that Yue Yang, who hadn't had time to settle down in a hurry, immediately took an arrow step, stopped in front of Lu Chang, and said with a smile: "Elder, they are all things that can't be seen on the table, they are not as delicious as the Yanshan Sect's elixir, they are very rude, if you spoil your appetite, it will not be good." ”
"Go aside!"
Elder Lu seemed to be very interested in the delicious food in the pot, so he didn't give up easily, snorted coldly, and ignored Yue Yang's persuasion and came directly to the iron pot.
And when he saw what was in the pot, he saw that the corners of Elder Lu's eyes twitched violently, and an old face sank in an instant, and his face was so black that it was almost as black as the bottom of the pot.
The atmosphere in the room was suddenly shrouded in an extremely tense atmosphere, and Yue Yang didn't dare to take a breath, only Dabai on the side was unaware, still intoxicated with the food.
"Snake soup?" Elder Lu's cheeks twitched violently.
Yue Yang nodded, bowing his head deeply, not daring to look at Elder Lu.
Elder Lu stared at the food in the pot with his eyes, and after a long time, he looked away and sighed: "I think you know everything, no wonder, now that the Yanshan faction is boiling, no one knows, my old face is about to be lost, you have repeatedly blocked it before, presumably because you are afraid that I will touch the scene, but the old man blames you." ”
Yue Yang was stunned for a moment, and immediately understood, the old man did not realize that he had something to do with the disappearance of the colorful python from beginning to end, and the old man did not come here today to ask the teacher for the crime, he was completely scared of himself.
Thinking of this, Yue Yang's heart was settled, but looking at the old man's appearance, he didn't know what to do, so he smiled after half a sound: "Or, eat more." ”
However, as soon as he finished speaking, he regretted it, and longed to give his crow's mouth a hard slap.
Sure enough, I saw that Elder Lu's facial muscles, who were about to ease his senses, twitched fiercely, and he looked very painful.
He covered half of his face and struggled to spit out four words: "No, toothache." Seeing Yueyang's heart, it was inexplicable.
Is it really a toothache? Yue Yang didn't know what to say.
After a moment of silence, I don't know if it was to bypass the topic, or if I felt something, the old man stared at the tombs not far from the house, and took the lead in breaking the silence, sighing: "In fact, compared to the revitalization of this faction, the head of this faction has always shouldered a more arduous and important mission!"
"More important than the revitalization of the Yanshan faction?" Yue Yang was taken aback.
"Yes, compared to this matter, let alone the revitalization of the Yanshan faction, even if the Yanshan faction is destroyed, it is nothing!"
The old man's gaze was still on the cemetery, and the seemingly bland words made Yue Yang suspect that there was something wrong with his hearing.
The matter of the colorful giant python seemed to have been forgotten, and Yue Yangqi said: "Elder, you're not joking, are you? What kind of mission is worth paying such a heavy price for the Yanshan faction, if the Yanshan faction is destroyed, what is the point of talking about anything else?"
The old man didn't seem to hear his words at all, stared at the tomb group and sighed to himself: "They are also dutiful, it is normal for them to fail to complete the mission, and if they want to come to the task assigned by the Crane Dragon Patriarch, how can they be easily completed!"
"Helong Zhenren?" Yue Yang exclaimed, his heart full of shock.
He stayed in Yanshan for three years, how could he not know the crane dragon in the old man's mouth, it was definitely a god-like figure, seven thousand years ago, he single-handedly created the behemoth of the Yanshan faction, and his disciples were all over every corner of the Longyuan Continent, and he was a generation of heroes recognized by the cultivation world.
The fact that the ancestors of the Yanshan Sect had such an unknown and important mission had already shocked Yue Yang, and listening to the old man, such a mission was actually given by such a legendary figure, which made Yue Yang even more shocked and unable to speak for a while.
As if awakened by Yue Yang's words, Elder Lu turned his head to look at Yue Yang, his eyes flickered, and he said thoughtfully: "Do you know?
Yue Yang didn't say anything, he knew that the old man still had a following.
Elder Lu said: "Soon after the Crane Dragon Patriarch entrusted the mission, he completely lost his trace, and it was also since then that my Yanshan faction ushered in an unprecedented decline, but these are not important, and then talk about the things that the real person explained, who dares not to obey......! Fortunately, after seven thousand years, the Yanshan Sect is finally expected to complete the mission entrusted by the real person, and the long-cherished wish that the successive heads of the sect has failed to fulfill is finally about to come true!" Speaking of this, I don't know if it was because the old man was too excited, and his body trembled violently.
Yue Yang frowned, and he couldn't help but ask, "I don't know what the mission entrusted by the Crane Dragon Patriarch to the heads of the Yanshan Sect is it?"
This was the issue he had always been most concerned about, but it was a pity that Elder Lu had not been able to mention it just now.
If it is true as the old man said, this will be a shocking secret. At this moment, Yue Yang was very curious about the last legacy entrusted by the real person, what kind of mission was worthy of such attention from the ancestors of the Yanshan Sect at any cost?
However, Yue Yang was disappointed in the end, and the old man was tight-lipped and had no intention of telling each other at all.
He couldn't help but guess that this might involve the core secrets of the Yanshan faction, and even if he asked again, he couldn't ask anything.
At this time, he couldn't help but feel a little secretly annoyed in his heart, it was obvious that Elder Lu had provoked the topic first, but he didn't tell himself the key point, didn't he deliberately arouse his curiosity.
Outside the house, under the boundless moonlight, but see a cemetery isolated in the mountains and ravines, covered with years of scratches on the tombstones, revealing a faint sense of sadness, the whole cemetery solemn and solemn There is a heavy sadness in the flow.
"Is it worth it? It takes so many people to complete an ethereal and unattainable thing in their lifetimes, and the price will be so heavy!" staring at the cemetery for a moment, Yue Yang couldn't help but sigh.
Through these tomb owners, Yue Yang thought of himself who fought with the demon fetus, whether that battle was necessary back then, in fact, think about it, what does the righteousness of the common people have to do with him, why should he end up with a betrayal of his homeland and a complete waste of cultivation, he respects everyone who lies in these tombs, their spirit is worthy of respect, but he does not recognize their persistence, just like the veto of his past.
"Of course it's worth it!"
Yue Yang was taken aback, but saw Elder Lu say angrily: "What an honor it is to be fortunate enough to complete the mission entrusted by the Crane Dragon Patriarch, take the contemporary head of the sect as an example, to be able to personally take over the trust of the real person, how exciting the feeling of being a real person has a long way to go! You see that my Yanshan Sect has been inherited by countless people to this day, but in the past seven thousand years, how many people have been able to have such an opportunity, you stinky boy dare to accuse the ancestors!"
Yue Yang didn't expect Elder Lu to be so excited, but then his face darkened, and one of the people in the old man's words brought back a memory in his heart, and this person was the current head of the Yanshan Sect.
Many people only know that he has a good popularity, and they know that he has a good relationship with several elders in the sect, but few people know that he has an unknown intersection with the current head of the Yanshan faction.
In the past, the unexpected appearance of the space-time furnace made Yue Yang get rid of the mortal battle, but that did not mean that Yue Yang had completely bid farewell to death, on the contrary, he was seriously injured at that time, if he left it alone, he would have died at any time, if it wasn't for a kind elder who passed by and brought him back to the Yanshan faction, so that he could be treated by the head in time, I am afraid that he would have already become a delicacy in the belly of the beast.
"He has paid so much for me, and I have nothing to reciprocate, I have been wondering, is it worth it for him to do that, as the head of a generation, he is in a high position, he is worthy of a heavy responsibility by the entire sect, and he is ruthless with me, why do I need to do so much!" The corners of Yue Yang's mouth were bitter.
