Chapter 81: Food is the sky
readx;
The sky gradually darkened, in front of a courtyard. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
A young man half-knelt in front of Lihong and said, "Disciple Minghong, see Elder Lihong"
"Get up," Lihong stretched out his hand to help him up. This courtyard is the temporary foothold of the Shafeng clan in the ancient city of Xuan, although it is not as gorgeous and magnificent as the four great families, but it is also unique. The pavilions and pavilions are scattered and orderly, and the rockery and the secluded spring are contrasting, giving people a refreshing feeling.
"After such a long journey, everyone is a little tired, let's go down and rest. Minghong, you arrange a room for them. Three days later, the five-pulse competition officially began, I hope you can win glory for our clan" Lihong's voice was loud, encouraging everyone's morale.
"We will not disappoint the elders," the crowd said in unison. Many of the Wind Shaping Clan's disciples were excited, and a wave of confidence gradually spread.
"Senior brothers, please come with me," Ming Hong smiled gently. Gu Nan and the others only discovered at this time that this Ming Hong was not simple, and he turned out to be a master who had cultivated the Sea of Life!
After everyone left, Gu Ling and Lihong walked into a room. In the center of the room, a fist-sized pearl of the night glowed brightly, making the room feel like daytime. Lihong poured two cups of tea, and a faint fragrance quickly spread.
Lihong waved his hand and said, "Sit down and drink two glasses with me."
"The disciples of the clan are so angry, of course you are interested in drinking tea. It's a pity that none of the disciples of my Gu clan's lineage are doing their jobs, if only they could have one-tenth of the progress of your lineage" Gu Ling sighed lightly, but he didn't mean to refuse to leave Hong, but instead sat down opposite him.
Gu Ling took a sip of tea and said, "The Gu clan's vein has long since declined, if it weren't for your secret help over the years, I'm afraid that the Ao clan's vein would have wiped out our vein long ago."
"They have already begun to make a move, and some time ago they even secretly sent an enshriner, wanting to steal the flower that is about to ripen," Li Hong said coldly.
"Have they ever succeeded?" Gu Ling's expression suddenly became nervous. The involvement of the other side flower is too great, which is the fundamental reason why the five veins can develop so rapidly, and there is absolutely no room for loss!
....
"Two, you can live here temporarily" Ming Hong said to Gu Nan and the two: "If you have any needs, you can come to me at any time"
"Thank you, senior brother," Gu Nan and the two saluted to show their gratitude.
"I'm going to get busy first," Ming Hong turned and left.
Ming Hong left, the little fat man looked at whether there was anyone outside, then directly closed the door, and asked Gu Nan mysteriously: "Gu Nan, which Gu Ling is not a member of your Gu clan? Isn't it only your Gu clan who dares to take Gu as his surname?"
Gu Nan shook his head and said, "I can't tell you clearly, although the ancestors of my clan took Gu as their surname, but everyone in this world can change their own surname, who can say clearly?"
Xuangu City, another area, is one of the four great families, in a room where the Ao family is stationed. The decoration of this room is extremely gorgeous, the tables, chairs, and bookcases are made of aged cedar wood, and even the lamp oil in the lamp is refined from the flesh and blood of a powerful demon beast, which has the effect of refreshing the mind.
The identity of the owner of this room is not trivial, because he is the current patriarch of the Ao family, Ao Shichen, and he is one of the most powerful existences in this Xuan Ancient City. He didn't look old, he didn't look like he was about thirty years old, and there was an invisible coercion around his body slowly emanating.
Ao Shichen stood in front of a bookcase with his hands behind his back, and said in a deep voice: "This time the Wind Shaping Clan is leading the team with Lihong?"
"Yes, my lord. Na Lihong's cultivation is becoming more and more powerful, and there is a young man beside him who has comprehended the vision of the sea of life, and his strength is infinitely close to that of the gods, the people of the Wind Shaping Clan seem to call him Yuexiang "A black-robed man half-knelt on the ground and said.
"Since you haven't achieved the gods yet, you're always just an ant," Ao Shichen's eyes flashed with a hint of murderous intent. The black-robed man who was kneeling on the ground only felt cold to the bone, and a sea of corpses and blood appeared in his mind, and even bursts of screams and wails came from his ears!
"Okay, you go down first" Ao Shichen waved his hand, and the invisible murderous aura finally dissipated.
The black-robed man hurriedly got up and left. When he walked out of the room, he found that his robe was soaked with cold sweat.
"The flower on the other side, how can it be a divine object that can increase people's nirvana rebirth. Such divine objects, including the Purple Sun Secret Realm, should be in the hands of my Ao family, and only I can give full play to their effects perfectly," Ao Shichen raised his head and roared.
Time passes, the full moon sets in the west, and the early sun dawns.
"What's wrong?" Gu Nan rubbed his eyes. The little fat man woke him up mysteriously.
The little fat man said: "The competition that Elder Lihong said is about to begin, I think it is necessary for us to take a look at the strength of the other four great families, the so-called knowing oneself and knowing the other can win a hundred battles, isn't it?"
"That seems to be the case, but should we talk to Elder Lihong?" Gu Nan agreed, but felt that something was wrong. After all, they have never been here, and they are not familiar with the place, what if they encounter an accident? In the end, Gu Nan still said that he was not a little fat man, and the two quietly slipped out of the courtyard.
In another room in the courtyard, Li Hong smiled and said, "These two little guys are really not worry-free."
"Send two people to follow them secretly, and don't reveal their traces until they have to," Lihong commanded. Gu Nan and they are not only the participants in this competition, but at the same time, Li Hong also knows that the little fat man is known as a rising star in the Three Thousand Dao Sect, and they must not have an accident, otherwise who will withstand the wrath of the Supreme Great Sect?
"Obey, Elder Lihong," Ming Hong said respectfully.
The little fat man thought that his plan was seamless, and after leaving the hospital, he took Gu Nan straight to the most prosperous street in the city. It's a pity that they didn't know their every move, and they couldn't escape Elder Lihong's eyes.
"Little fat man, I know that you are not serious, how can you be here to collect the information of the disciples of the four great families" Gu Nan said speechlessly. When he said this, the little fat man had already dragged him to a dining hall in the bustling area of Xuangu City and sat down.
The name of the food que is as follows: Food is the sky, and it is a pavilion with extremely high-end decoration. The tables and chairs in the hall are made of the finest wood, and a beaded curtain with pearls hangs to separate the dining tables. In the center of the hall are several incense burners carved with dragon and phoenix textures. I don't know what spices were put into the incense burner, and the wisps of light smoke that rose made them feel extremely comfortable, making people have a great appetite and want to eat a big meal.
At such an early age, there were already many people in the pavilion. The little fat man hurriedly pulled Gu Nan to a window position and sat down, and greeted Xiao Er. Xiao Er immediately walked over, and Gu Nan carefully sensed and found that this junior Er in his twenties turned out to be a cultivator who sealed the secret realm. Gu Nan was shocked, the cultivator of the Sealed Treasure Realm was still just a runaway here?
"Childe, what do you command?"
"Let's get some of your famous dishes here," said the little fat man. He said it very domineeringly, as if he had often done the same thing before, but Gu Nan felt like he was a nouveau riche who entered the inn for the first time!
"Childe, please wait a moment, I'll go and prepare" Xiao Er's eyes lit up. He didn't expect that the two teenagers in front of him who looked no more than ten years old turned out to be the owner of the money.
Gu Nan may not be as rich as the sons of some families, but there is still no shortage of money for a few meals. After all, there are a mountain of source stones in the mustard seed magic weapon that Lihong gave them. After Xiao Er left, the little fat man finally answered Gu Nan's question.
"Do you remember where we heard about the Gu Immortal Relic Mansion last time?" the little fat man said in his ear.
Gu Nan's eyes suddenly lit up, and he whispered: "Are you saying that there will be the information we want in this restaurant?"
The little fat man nodded, and Shique's work efficiency was extremely high. Soon Xiao Er brought the dishes up, and the dishes were all made of high-quality precious jade jade on jade plates, which were extremely luxurious!
The two began to eat heavily, keeping an eye out for what the diners were talking to. But soon they were speechless, and what everyone was talking about was none other than which Snow Fairy was!
The little fat man finally revealed his true nature, and most of the dishes on the table went into his stomach. Gu Nan eats very little, because he is always paying attention to what the people around him are talking about. Since you promised others to win the competition, you naturally have to do your best. Gathering information about your opponents will be of great help to them.
Gu Nan's position was next to the window, and at the same time close to the stairs, so they could see the many cultivators going up and down the stairs, and of course, anyone could see them. But those whose eyes swept away from them stopped paying attention. After all, they were just two teenagers in the Sealed Realm, and they might have great potential, but they couldn't get into their eyes yet. Because there is never a shortage of geniuses in this world, and there is no shortage of geniuses who have fallen.
Time passed slowly, and Gu Nan finally noticed a table of people. The people at this table are all tens of years old. Gu Nan glanced in which direction he looked silently, and the little fat man suddenly understood. The ears and eyes of the two were keen, and even through several tables, they could still clearly hear the conversation of the old men.
One of them said, "The five-vein competition once in twenty years is about to begin, who do you think will win the first prize this time?"
"It's hard to say, Sealing, Cave Heaven, Sea of Life, Nirvana, every secret realm has great potential to be tapped, no family dares to say that it is foolproof," another old man sighed lightly.
"What do you think, old man?" someone asked, which of the oldest of the several people was the oldest. The cultivation of the old man is also extremely terrifying, and he is the deepest existence among the several people.
Su Lao smiled and said: "Since you can afford me, let me tell you my guess."
"I won't talk about the secret realm of Nirvana, I believe everyone has a number in their hearts"
"Which disciple of the Wind Shaping Clan has comprehended the vision of the Sea of Destiny, and is the one with the most hope of becoming a god. I'm afraid that no one in the Nirvana Secret Realm will be able to compete with him."
Su Lao nodded and said: "If you are in the secret realm of the Sea of Life, I think the arrogance of the Ao family is the most promising, although he has only recently stepped into the Sea of Life realm, but with the strength of his previous Dongtian arrogant at the same level, I believe it will definitely shine." And according to rumors, this arrogant Wuxin realized enlightenment in a short period of time after stepping into the sea of life."
"What? Ao Wuxin has realized the secret realm of the Sea of Life? Could it be that he has already comprehended the vision of the Sea of Life?" someone exclaimed.
"I don't know the specific news, the Ao family has sealed this news tightly, and no one knows what he has comprehended," Su Lao sighed lightly.
Gu Nan and the others listened quietly to their conversation, although their expressions did not change, but their hearts had already set off a monstrous wave. Which arrogant and heartless comprehension is so terrifying, and he has already realized the Tao not long after stepping into the secret realm of the Sea of Life! This kind of comprehension is not at all worse than the disciples of the Great Sect!
"Which other two secret realms?" the old man no longer talked about the secret realm of the Sea of Life.
"It's hard to say about these two secret realms. However, I did get a secret message" Su Lao took a sip of tea and said: "The Ao family has invited a disciple of the Great Sect to help!"
"Disciple of the Great Sect, Zixiao Sect, or Yaoguang Holy Land?" an old man asked.
"I don't know" Su Lao shook his head, and glanced at Gu Nan and them with great meaning. I saw that Gu Nan's brows were furrowed, as if they were thinking about something, and they didn't know that they had been discovered by others.
This news was so shocking that even Gu Nan and they finally couldn't calm down, and the two of them secretly said, "Are you going to face up to the disciples of the Great Sect so soon?"
"It seems that the Ao family has made a bloody investment this time, and wants to make the other major families lose face, and even establish the dominance of their Ao family from now on," the old man sighed lightly. The Ao family has developed too rapidly over the years, and its strength has become stronger and more arrogant. If the Ao family established their dominant position, their situation of dispersion would become more and more difficult.
