Chapter 16: Messages
As soon as Cheng Xingyun returned home, he saw Cheng Chen beside the bed, and hurriedly ran over with joy in his heart, threw himself into his arms, and called "Daddy", Cheng Chen stood up and patted Xingyun's shoulder, at this time Cheng Xingyun's size had reached the height of Cheng Chen's shoulder.
Cheng Chen was in a trance, he didn't expect time to pass so quickly, so much time has passed since he came to the Southwest Regions, and now even the children have grown so big, but since he came back once half a year ago, he quickly packed up his mood.
After a brief chat with Cheng Bo first, Cheng Bo has long been accustomed to such a scene, of course, he is still a lot more relieved to see Cheng Chen return safely.
Immediately afterwards, Cheng Chen checked the recent foundation building of Cheng Xingyun, Cheng Xingyun used to be in normal shape, but after this period of foundation building, his body has become thinner, his face has also become a lot thinner, and his complexion has darkened a lot, but his eyes are still as bright as Cheng Chen used to, which seems to be inherited, and now the whole person looks a little resolute. He also used the aura to investigate the foundation building situation in the body of the next Cheng Nebula, and the detection results made Cheng Chen nod, obviously satisfied with his situation.
Cheng Chen patted Cheng Xingyun's head lightly, and then said to Cheng Bo: "The foundation is so good, it's troublesome for Uncle Cheng this time." ”
Cheng Bo waved his hand, he has always regarded Cheng Xingyun as his grandchild, he didn't think there was anything to do this, he just said today's events: "Today we went to see Wanjianmen enrollment, I didn't expect Wanjianmen to come up with such a blockbuster news this time." ”
Cheng Chen was also curious: "I have already heard that it is said that in two years, there will be a chance to enter the Nanshan Lingtan to cultivate, and in the end, there is a possibility of entering the Holy Sword Pavilion?" ”
Cheng Bo nodded and returned: "That's true, what we heard with our own ears, I think there should be some reasons that we don't know, otherwise the probability of this happening should be extremely low." ”
Saying this, Cheng Chen waved his hand at Cheng Xingyun, and then said, "You have been running for a day, you should be tired, go back to the room and rest first." ”
Cheng Xingyun knew that the two elders were going to talk about things, although he was also curious, but obviously his father didn't want him to know, so he had to go back to the back room obediently.
After Cheng Xingyun entered the house and closed the door, the two continued the topic just now.
Cheng Bo said: "The Holy Sword Pavilion is so eager to recruit a group of disciples, maybe there is something wrong in the door that we don't know about. ”
Cheng Chen nodded and returned: "Maybe it's not just the Holy Sword Pavilion, I went out to search for the western region of the Southwest Region this time, and I heard that the most powerful sect there, the Dream Tower, seems to have spread the same news. ”
"What, the same is true of Dream Building, it seems that something big is going to happen in this area." Suddenly hearing that there was such news in the Dream Building, Cheng Bo was surprised and hurriedly asked.
"The news is true, and I went back to Green Bamboo City again, and I heard that the Shadow Gate also mentioned Nanshan Lingtan and Dream Building in the enrollment conditions there." Cheng Chen replied.
When Cheng Bo heard that it was related to Nanshan Lingtan again, he was curious: "Oh, it is also Nanshan Lingtan, do they want to fight for it?" What is the relationship between the Shadow Gate and the Dream Building? ”
Since Cheng Chen often went out to search for the things they needed, he knew enough about these news, after all, Cheng Bo only stayed in Nanxi Village to take care of Cheng Xingyun, and he didn't know much about the recent news.
Cheng Chen thought for a moment and replied, "The Shadow Gate is a subordinate sect of the Dream Building, and usually only the top leaders in the sect can enter the Dream Building to practice. I heard about this in the past this time, and I made a special inquiry under curiosity, it turned out that the Nanshan Lingtan is located at the top of the southernmost Nanshan Mountain in the entire southwest region, in which the spiritual energy is extremely pure, with the effect of washing the body and refining the spiritual energy, which is naturally of infinite benefit to beginner cultivators, after all, the better the foundation, the higher the cultivation level. And Nanshan is too vast, with such a treasure, it is natural that it will not be swallowed by one force alone. The western part of Nanshan is in the sphere of influence of the Dream Tower, and most of the mountain ranges extending from Nanshan are under the influence of the Holy Sword Pavilion. In the past, in order to avoid directly causing sectarian wars, the two most powerful sects in the Southwest Regions were handed over to the subordinate sects closest to their forces to take care of them, so as not to escalate the conflict. It's just that now I didn't expect that the two major sects would now directly pick out the fight now. ”
Hearing that there was such a reason, Cheng Bo also smacked his tongue: "Then it seems that this area is indeed dangerous in the future, how can we stay away from this place?" ”
Cheng Chen thought about it, but shook his head, and then looked at the door of the inner room: "Xingyun, come out and tell me what you think." ”
Cheng Bo was stunned when he heard this, he had long known that Cheng Xingyun was eavesdropping, but he just felt that this matter was indeed related to Xingyun's future, he thought that Cheng Chen deliberately revealed the news, so as to make it clear that he wanted Cheng Xingyun to give up the opportunity to enter the Ten Thousand Swords Gate, but now it seems that this is not the case.
Cheng Xingyun walked out of the room embarrassedly, knowing that he had already been detected by his father and they were eavesdropping, and when he heard that he was asked to go out at this time, he thought that he was also asking him to give up. However, he still had the courage to directly pick out his own thoughts, so he said to the two elders: "Daddy, grandpa, I still want to enter the Ten Thousand Sword Gate to practice, after all, there is such a good opportunity to enter the Nanshan Lingtan, and even have the opportunity to worship the Holy Sword Pavilion in the future, I don't want to give up such an opportunity." Moreover, I heard from my grandfather that there is another Sage in the Holy Sword Pavilion, and I also want to go and see it, and I also want to become a Sage in the future. ”
The more Cheng Xingyun spoke, the more resolute he became, and a resolute look appeared in his eyes.
Cheng Chen was relieved to see his resolute gaze, but he still asked, "Then do you know how much competition you will face in the future?" How much danger? ”
"I know, but the path to power is going to be smooth, and I want to take on the challenge. But Daddy, Grandpa, I'll be careful, and I'll put my own safety first. ”
Listening to Cheng Xingyun's slightly mature words, Cheng Chen was slightly stunned, and then looked at Cheng Bo, his eyes were full of emotion. He didn't expect Cheng Bo to teach Cheng Xingyun so well, it seems that Cheng Bo is the right choice to teach him. After all, Cheng Chen himself is a father for the first time, and his age is still relatively young, so he is obviously inferior to Cheng Bo in terms of training for his juniors.
Cheng Bo saw how Cheng Xingyun suddenly said such mature words, but after thinking about it, wasn't this what he only said during the day, but he didn't expect that in just a few hours, the little guy would use it to learn and put it to use. glanced at Cheng Xingyun funny, and saw that there was a slight nervousness under his resolute look, so he didn't explain, just stroked his beard with one arm, as if he was extremely satisfied, but there was still a hint of amusement in his eyes.
Cheng Chen continued to look at Cheng Xingyun twice, nodded secretly in his heart, and then waved his hand and said, "We know what you mean, you go back to the room first, have a good rest, don't you still have something to go out tomorrow morning?" ”
Cheng Xingyun smiled awkwardly: "Daddy, you know everything, I will start building the foundation after the butterflies are released tomorrow." ”
Cheng Chen said with a smile: "You guys are so loud, I can't hear it, go back and rest, go out tomorrow and have a good time, there shouldn't be so many days to stop in the future." ”
Hearing this meaningful sentence, Cheng Xingyun was a little excited in his heart, and after saying goodnight to the two, he returned to the room briskly.
Cheng Chen and Cheng Bo were still talking outside, and at this time, Cheng Chen's hand waved and his whole body bloomed, and he instantly wrapped the room with aura, not revealing a single thing.
Seeing this, Cheng Bo knew that there was something important, and then he saw Cheng Chen take out an object from his chest, which was the array disk that had been used in the small valley outside Luzhu City: "Do you remember this thing?" I brought it back seven years ago, and I studied it with you at that time, and at that time I only thought it was an ordinary array disk, but over the years, I have found that it is not just a formation disk, and I have not been able to study the power of the kendo contained in it until now. I used to think that it belonged to the Ten Thousand Swords Gate, but judging from the results of such a long period of investigation, this thing should have nothing to do with the Ten Thousand Swords Gate. But I'm really not sure what I'm researching here, so now I want to give him to Nebula. ”
Seeing this, Cheng Bo also took it over and looked at it curiously, and then frowned and said: "It has always been your life-saving thing, you give it to Xingyun, so what will you do in the future!" ”
Cheng Chen stroked his now dull hair, and said helplessly: "I know my body, the backlash has become more and more severe in recent years, and I don't have so much energy to study it in the future." What's more, I have used it many times, although I have not studied this thing deeply, but I am very familiar with its feelings, this thing has excellent hiding and defense functions, I have escaped several times to ask it, and it provides a layer of protection for the nebula, and I am relieved. ”
Cheng Bo saw the loneliness in his expression, and his heart was uncomfortable, so he was silent and changed the topic: "Just now you said that Nanshan Lingtan is located at the top of Nanshan, and the Nanshan Mountain Range is so vast, as far as I know, it extends to the eastern region of the Southwest Region, so why does Haoyue Palace, which is located in the east, have no news about this matter?" ”
Cheng Chen frowned and thought for a while: "Haoyue Palace, I don't know much, I only heard that this palace gate is very mysterious, I didn't hear the news of Haoyue Palace's enrollment when I went out this time, and although they also have some forces in the eastern part of the Nanshan Mountain Range, they don't seem to have been involved in the battles of those big factions, but this has nothing to do with us." When we fled along the eastern border of the Southwest, we never saw the shadow of this sect, and we had no way of knowing where they were. ”
Hearing this, Cheng Bo didn't say it anymore. However, talking about the Nanshan Mountains again, it reminded Cheng Chen of a news that I didn't know whether it was true or not: "The way I went out this time was basically near the mountain range extending from Nanshan, but in some places I heard that the Nanshan Lingtan is too high and deep, and its area is too broad, so there are some energy springs escaping under the heavy accumulation of the Lingtan, and even the springs or streams thousands of miles away may be connected to the Nanshan Lingtan underground." Some people even say that the Nanxi in Nanxi Village is a spring that escapes from the Nanshan Lingtan thousands of miles away, but we have lived here for so many years, although this Nanxi has some spiritual energy compared with the streams in other places, it is really too thin, otherwise some spiritual objects have already formed in this area, how can we still have space to live quietly here. ”
When Cheng Bo heard the news, he was also a little amused, after all, he had been to Nanxi countless times, and he didn't see anything special.
Then the two chatted about what they had seen and heard on the way, and they were ready to start resting, after all, one had just returned from the field today, and the other had also walked back and forth from the town, both physically and mentally exhausted.
