Volume 1: The First Gathering of the Five Spirits XVIII: The Sorrow of the Family

The city was really hard to defend, and the general's line was so empty that he couldn't even see a single guard soldier, so it was estimated that they were all sent to the city to fight.

Old Man Tang walked into the lobby in the row, and saw a large bookcase in the middle, which was full of maps, espionage reports and documents, and a large chair behind the bookcase, with a complete tiger skin on the chair, so he paced over and sat down.

At this time, outside the door of Xingyuan, there were already two people hurrying over, these two were of the same age, and they both looked close to the age of antiquity, but one was wearing a dark purple robe, and his face was uneasy; The other was dressed in a gray and white robe, and his face was full of sadness.

These two people flew from the rear of the Jin army and the mountains near Luojing City, because they knew that there was a person with advanced cultivation who not only made such a big battle outside the city, but also swaggered into the city, so they rushed to find out. And because he knew that his cultivation was really not worth mentioning in front of the other party, he didn't dare to make a mistake, so he fell down in the city, and came all the way to the outside of the Liang generals.

I don't know that the two of them can't get in.

The two of them glanced at each other, then raised their legs and walked towards the inner circle, but it seemed that there was a wall in the inner circle, and the courtyard seemed empty, but the two of them couldn't take half a step, and an invisible force kept blocking the two.

When they looked at each other again, there was already a hint of fear in their eyes.

The old man in the dark purple robe thought about giving a salute in the line, and said loudly: "The younger generation of the Western Jin Dynasty enemy family Qiu Shiyun wants to see the senior. ”

The gray-robed old man simply knelt on the ground, kowtowed to the courtyard and said, "Junior Wenliang Fang Family Fang Jinghe greets seniors. ”

After a while, someone said, "Come in." ”

This Fang Jinghe's Fang family is the cultivation family that sits on the Liang Kingdom, but now the situation of the Fang family can be said to be stormy, seeing that his own Luojing City is about to be lost, a monk with unfathomable cultivation came at this time, this Fang Jinghe felt that this might be his chance to come to the pole, so he was extremely humble, and actually knelt down and went to the hall in the courtyard.

When Qiu Shiyun saw it, he secretly scolded that he was not ashamed, and was about to enter the courtyard, but he was surprised that the courtyard still couldn't enter.

It is estimated that the powerful man inside also wants him to learn from that Jinghe to go in!

This Qiu Shiyun is also an identity in his own family, how could he have suffered such humiliation, but at this time, he could only swallow his anger, knelt down, and climbed in step by step like Fang Jinghe, but he didn't want to be left behind, so he caught up with Fang Jinghe with both hands and feet, and the two almost knelt down and climbed into the hall together.

didn't dare to raise his head, only glanced at it, Qiu Shiyun hurriedly said: "The younger generation of the Western Jin Dynasty Qiu Shiyun has seen the seniors, and it is too late to greet them, and it is not strange to hope that the seniors are coming." ”

Fang Jinghe hurriedly said respectfully: "The junior Wenliang Fang family Fang Jinghe has seen the seniors, but the seniors have orders, and the juniors must obey them." ”

The Qiu family of the Western Jin Dynasty and the Fang family of Wen Liang are two immortal cultivation families living next to each other, while the Jin State and the Liang State belong to two families, the Qiu family is strong and the Fang family is weak.

Previously, the two monks fought for a thing, the Fang family was defeated, and they were unwilling to give up the treasure, so they had to give up Luojing City, so there was a matter of the Jin army trapped in this Luojing City, if the Jin army captured this city, then this Luojing City would be owned by the enemy from now on.

Old man Tang sat behind the bookcase and was carelessly filling a copper cigarette bag with tobacco, ignoring the two of them, and only after taking a puff of green smoke in his cigarette pouch did he say: "The old man came this time for a small matter, and when the matter is done, the old man will leave, but he didn't expect to see this big battle like a sea of corpses and blood outside the city, it was really not in vain!" ”

Qiu Shiyun knew more in his heart than Fang Jinghe next to him, and after hearing these words, his heart tightened, and secretly said that the day when this person arrived should be a few days later, why did he arrive today! It seems that the family's plans are about to fall through.

Thinking of this, this Qiu Shiyun had the courage to say: "Don't dare to ask the name of the senior, the younger clan uncle Qiu Jiuzi is the ...... of the Muyang Sect."

didn't wait for him to finish talking about his uncle's teacher, while listening to the old man above interrupt him: "If you don't dare to ask, then don't ask, I don't bother to know which one of your uncle's master is Mu Yangzong, you still don't know who the old man is, so you will move Mu Yangzong out first, pretending to be annoying!" Do you think that you can scare the old man away with the three words of Mu Yangzong? ”

This series of rebukes immediately made Qiu Shiyun shut up and didn't dare to say anything more.

Fang Jinghe saw that Qiu Shiyun was reprimanded, and his heart was a little settled, so he had the courage to hiss: "I don't know what the seniors are doing here, but where it is useful to the juniors, even if they are broken, the juniors are willing." ”

"Hmph, this is like a sentence, but there is no need for you, someone has already done it, but it doesn't hurt to tell you, lest those careful eyes of Mu Yangzong say that the old man has no rules. There is a jade plate of my Five Spirits Sect in this Luojing City, and now I know why the old man came here. ”

Although Old Man Tang said this softly and gently, the three words of the Five Spirits Sect were like two sledgehammers smashed on the vests of the two people, making the two people lie even lower.

Qiu Shiyun had actually guessed the identity of this old man a long time ago, and at this time, he was just more frightened in his heart.

And the most surprising thing was Fang Jinghe of the Fang family, he never expected that the people of the Five Spirits Sect, who were thousands of miles away, would come here, and there was a piece of the Five Spirits Sect's Jiaxuan jade plate in his Luojing City, and he was also the person in charge of the Fang family, so he didn't know!

In this cultivation world, the Five Spirits Sect is a big sect with the same name as the Muyang Sect, and in the rumors in the cultivation world, the strength of the Five Spirits Sect is faintly above the Muyang Sect.

In fact, the Fang family has also considered serving the Mu Yang Sect, how can they be next to the enemy family, the enemy family has some power in the Mu Yang Sect, and the other family has been eyeing the other family, and they can't wait to swallow the foundation of the Fang family, so they have been obstructing it.

If the Fang family also joined the Mu Yang Sect, at least the two families would have a place to reason, how could it be like now, their own monks were not the opponents of the enemy, and even this Luojing City was in danger, and it was about to fall into the hands of the enemy.

Wrong!

A selection of jade cards!

The enemy has been assassinating in Luojing City recently! It wasn't like going to the general Li Mao, Fang Jinghe had also secretly observed, and it was clear that he was going to attack Li Mao's grandson! He gradually woke up from his surprise, and suddenly turned his head to stare at Qiu Shiyun next to him.

Qiu Shiyun's face was already pale, and beads of sweat the size of beans on his forehead dripped on the masonry ground in front of him.

Fang Jinghe pointed at Qiu Shiyun and trembled for a long time and didn't know what to scold, and finally only said one sentence: "You guys are so calculating!" ”

"Senior" Qiu Shiyun struggled and hissed and said: "The matter of the first selection of the jade plate, the younger generation really doesn't know, not only that, the junior guaranteees, my enemy family also knows nothing about this matter, the enemy family acts, completely obeys the rules of Mu Yangzong, does not dare to cross the thunder pool half a step, and hopes that the seniors will be clear." ”

"Oh?"

Old Man Tang smiled faintly when he heard this, and puffed out another puff of green smoke.

"The old man heard that the lord of this city is called Li Mao, so according to the rules of Mu Yangzong, you have only assassinated this Li Mao under the pretense of several times, are you actually going to assassinate Li Mao's grandson? Li Mao is wearing the jade plate of my Five Spirits Sect, and his grandson is the one who is going to participate in this election. Since you say this, the old man is not afraid of trouble, why don't you take you to Mu Yangzong once, ask the little eye surnamed Gui, and let him give the old man an explanation? The old man wants to see how Mu Yangzong will deal with your enemies when the time comes! ”

The so-called surname of the Muyang Sect is a monk who is in charge of the Muyang Sect, and he is also quite famous in the cultivation world.

After hearing these words, Qiu Shiyun was already kneeling there and trembling, if this was the case, I am afraid that in order to eliminate the anger of the Five Spirit Sect, Mu Yangzong would directly ...... the Fang family

Old Man Tang looked at Qiu Shiyun, who was already trembling with fear, and continued with some disdain: "You enemies, if you want to do something, it is understandable, you want to add some industry to future generations, and the old man can understand. However, it is really funny that you are involved in Mu Yangzong everywhere, but you cause trouble for Mu Yangzong everywhere. Fortunately, the old man did not delay this starry night trip, so he only came a few days earlier, otherwise you would have really succeeded. You enemies are really guts! ”

The old man's words completely defeated Qiu Shiyun, and his heart pounded violently, and he almost fainted.

Fang Jinghe couldn't take care of Qiu Shiyun's embarrassment at this time, and the old man's words were not comfortable in his ears. Although his cultivation is not high, he has also presided over the Fang family for nearly a hundred years, why doesn't he know that in his Liang Kingdom, there is still a jade plate of the Five Spirits Sect among the hereditary general Li family?

Why haven't I seen the Li family have a good election?

If we had known about this, things would not have gotten to this point!

"Speaking of which, this Li family is unlucky,"

The old man noticed the confusion on Fang Jinghe's face, and spoke again, as if he was specifically trying to solve his doubts.

"The Li family has always been not prosperous, from this year upwards, the Li family has missed the first election four times in a row, not that their children are not good, but every year in the year of the first election, the Li family has no children who can participate in the first election, so the first few times the first few times the first election messenger was lazy, and he didn't even come, but he didn't expect this to make the Li family so embarrassed, and the family that my Five Spirits Sect took care of actually made the young people make up their minds."

"I see." Fang Jinghe then understood.

However, these are not what he really cares about, as the current patriarch of the Fang family, it is his right thing to plan for the whole family, first put aside the matter of this Jia Xuan, how to use this sudden Jia Xuan and this powerful monk who fell from the sky to benefit the Fang family, is what he is most worried about now.

The enemy family is powerful in the Muyang Sect, even if he surrenders to the past, I am afraid that he will continue to be oppressed by the enemy family. Moreover, the Five Spirits Sect actually has a jade plate in the Liang State, it seems that the Five Spirits Sect is afraid that it has already planned a long time ago, if the Fang family still serves the Mu Yang Sect, when the time comes, let alone an enemy, it will make the Fang family difficult to parry, and if you offend a powerful sect, the Fang family's life will not pass.

Fang Jinghe quickly turned his mind around, and after weighing the pros and cons, he finally gritted his teeth and made up his mind.

He walked a few steps to the old man's desk, carefully and cautiously took out a roll of bamboo slips, put his hands on the bookcase, and then retreated and bowed.

"Senior, junior Fang Jinghe is the current patriarch of the Fang family, and he is also the incompetence of the younger generation, which has made the Fang family's family ruined, the talents withered, and they have been bullied so far, and they are no longer able to protect the inheritance of their ancestors. The younger generation has the courage to dedicate the treasure of the clan to the seniors, and the Fang family is willing to serve the Five Spirits Sect from now on, no! Serve the seniors, and hope that the seniors will accept and bless! ”

After speaking, this Fang Jinghe kept slamming his head on the ground, and he didn't use spells to protect his body, but only kept smashing the stone slab on the ground with his flesh head, and soon his forehead was blue and red and oozing blood.

Before Old Man Tang could move, Qiu Shiyun on the side suddenly raised his head in shock when he heard this.

His eyes flickered as he looked at Fang Jinghe, who was prostrating, and then stared at the bamboo slip on the old man's case. That bamboo slip is the treasure of the Fang family in Fang Jinghe's mouth, and it is also the thing that the enemy family thinks about day and night, and tries everything possible to seize it, but he didn't expect it to be close in front of him.

Finally, Qiu Shiyun couldn't help but hurriedly open his mouth to stop it.

"Seniors can't! The younger generation knows that the Five Spirits Sect is a great cultivation sect, but the seniors should not forget that my enemy family and the Fang family have not been in harmony for generations, it was the previous two families who fought and the Fang family lost this Luojing City to my enemy. Although the enemy family is insignificant, many people in my clan are in the Muyang Sect, and this place is the boundary of the Muyang Sect, not to the Five Spirits Sect. The younger generation is brave, and the seniors are invited to think twice. ”

After speaking, Qiu Shiyun also slammed his head on the ground.

The old man ignored him, and continued to swallow the clouds and spit out the fog with the cigarette pouch in his mouth, but the bamboo slip fluttered and floated in front of the old man's eyes, and after the old man glanced at it, he flew back to Fang Jinghe.

Qiu Shiyun was overjoyed when he saw it, but Fang Jinghe's face turned pale in an instant.

Unexpectedly, the old man's words rang out again: "I underestimate my Five Spirit Sect, there are countless families who have joined my Five Spirit Sect, do you think that my Five Spirit Sect is to seek to rob other people's inheritance, those families that are accepted?" ”

Fang Jinghe's heart became hot again.

After a pause, the old man in the smoke continued slowly, this time against Qiu Shiyun.

"In the battle between your two monks, the Fang family did lose, but according to the rules, the army of your Jin Kingdom has not been able to capture this Luojing City, at least when the old man entered the city, so this is not your enemy's family, the old man's feet are still the land of the Liang Kingdom, and it is still owned by the Fang family. Your enemy is attached to Mu Yangzong, and the Jin Kingdom is indeed the territory of Mu Yangzong. The Fang family has never been attached to Mu Yangzong, so Liang Guo is not the place where Mu Yangzong belongs, the old man is doing something on the land of Liang State, such as accommodating a Fang family, it seems that he doesn't need to look at Mu Yangzong's face, right? ”

"As for the feud between your enemy family and the Fang family, it is worthless in the eyes of the old man! Think about it, why is there a jade plate of my Five Spirits Sect in Liang Guo, if you don't understand, why are you walking outside for your little family? I even dared to mention the word rule to the old man, well, since you know the rules, the old man asked you, your commander in the army outside the city, came back from the dead after being hit by an arrow, you told the old man, what kind of rule is this? ”

These words first angered Fang Jinghe, and he couldn't help but twist his face and scold angrily: "You husband, how dare you act like this?" It's really deceiving! ”

The old man stood up, paced two steps in the hall, and continued to speak to Qiu Shiyun who was lying on the ground:

"The enemy family will eventually cause trouble because of your actions, but don't worry, the old man won't do anything to you, and stay in the future, if there is really that day, it is not for you to be an enemy who can bear it, but it's too early to say this. Well, now that you are here, on behalf of the enemy, you will be a witness to the old man today. ”

After saying that, Old Man Tang looked at Fang Jinghe, who had a look of hope on his face again.

"The treasures in your clan, the old man keeps them useless, your Fang family should pass them on by yourself. If there is no outstanding one in a generation, there may be one in the future, and there will be no hurry. ”

"You want to serve the Five Spirits Sect, the old man can't do it, and after returning to the sect, you have to tell the elders in charge of the sect to make a decision. But you want to serve the old man, but the old man can call the shots, you listen well, the old man's surname is Tang, he was born in the Jinghai Tang family, although the old man is in the Five Spirits Sect, he can also do some master of the affairs of the clan. This thing is collected, soon, the people of my Tang family will come here to look for you, and you can use this token to negotiate the matter of the two families with the people of my Tang family, so good? ”

After saying that, the old man raised his hand and handed a small jade pendant to Fang Jinghe.

That Fang Jinghe clutched the jade pendant tightly with both hands, and was so excited that he was already in tears, which cultivator didn't know the name of the Jinghai Tang family, and if he could form an alliance with this powerful big family, he could keep his own family safe even if he didn't rely on the Five Spirit Sect, so he said in a trembling voice: "It's all up to the orders of the seniors." ”

The old man surnamed Tang nodded, looked at Qiu Shiyun, who was already completely defeated, and said:

"Let you listen more clearly, and go out to talk to others about today's events, the old man is in the Shuiyun Valley of the Five Spirits Sect, surnamed Tang, there are not many people surnamed Tang in the Five Spirits Sect, your uncle's master may know, even if you don't know, you can inquire." The old man is also a well-known cautious eye in the Five Spirits Sect, and there are not a few people in the Muyang Sect who know my reputation. ”

After pacing two more steps, he continued:

"As for the matter here, the old man doesn't interfere, after all, on the surface, you can't let the careful eyes in Mu Yang Sect be too ugly, whether it's true or not, anyway, what is on the table is the rules, so the old man can't break the rules. After the first election, the old man left immediately, leaving you here to continue tossing. ”

Where did Qiu Shiyun dare to have something to say.

Seeing this scene, the old man surnamed Tang said: "In this case, the main lord is about to arrive, and there is nothing for you to do here, so step down." ”

After the two withdrew, although they had a thousand plans in their hearts, they were speechless for a while, glared at each other, and then turned around and passed away.
