Chapter 708: No Root (3)
The appearance of my father's name disrupted my plans a little.
I soon left the base camp of the Yuan clan in Runan, and also left the Taiqing Palace in Luyi.
On a national highway outside the county seat of Luyi, there are no cars and no people.
The cold wind was blowing, and I only felt that there were countless dangerous breaths, which were gradually coming down on my head.
It's like ordinary people being stared at by countless hungry and ferocious beasts.
This place is outside Luyi County.
I don't know if there is a specific location outside the city on the wreath couplet, and the limit of what I can get out of Luyi is that.
The danger that was about to fall upon me was approaching, and my eyes were fixed on the darkness before me.
After a while, a figure came out of the darkness.
As the figure got closer, his face becoming clearer.
My pupils shrank, and my face froze slightly.
Not my father, Chen Daoling......
It's Yuan Zhengfa, the old patriarch of the Runan Yuan clan!
His body flickered in the darkness like a ghost, but at this moment, a big truck with high beams suddenly came, and the dazzling headlights illuminated Yuan Zhengfa's body transparently, he was not a ghost, his body was a real entity.
"Drip ———"
The big truck seemed to be about to hit Yuan Zhengfa, and pressed the horn frantically.
But Yuan Zhengfa didn't seem to hear it, and continued to walk leisurely.
Just as they were about to collide, Yuan Zhengfa's figure disappeared from the front of the big truck, and in the blink of an eye, he came to me.
The big truck roared past us, and we didn't have to think about it to know that the driver in the car was afraid that he was in a cold sweat.
Chen Qi...... Little friends ......"
Yuan Zhengfa spoke up.
"Old Patriarch, are you still alive?"
I asked, frowning.
"As Xiaoyou can see, I'm still alive......" Yuan Zhengfa said, and in his words, he seemed to have a lot of energy.
It's a lot better than any time I've seen him before.
"Death?"
I asked.
"Sort of, hehe." Yuan Zhengfa chuckled, and then, he said meaninglessly: "I want to last be a scholar and do something big at the end." ”
"What's the big deal?"
I asked, frowning.
"Let my Runan Yuan clan have no worries for a hundred years, no matter whether I am still there or not, no matter whether my Runan Yuan clan will continue to appear as a four-grade cultivator, I will not be bullied by any outsiders, and my Runan Yuan clan is still one of the strongest scholars."
Yuan Zhengfa said in a deep voice.
"It seems that the old patriarch has planned a lot, and he has also calculated me."
I said out loud.
I'm a little curious about what he's saying at the moment, but what I want to know more is something about what I've been exposed to.
Yuan Zhengfa looked at me calmly with his eyes and said, "It's a little sorry for Chen Xiaoyou, but in fact, the people who know that I am not dead, except for you at this moment, there is no one in this world, including the current patriarch of my clan, Yuan Jing." ”
"Why didn't you tell him?" I asked.
Yuan Zhengfa replied to me: "Tell him, that sadness and hatred, if you want to pretend, it is not so thorough, this world corporal clan, I don't know how many masters, and I don't know how many smart people are almost demons, I don't know how many, my fraud will not work." ”
What exactly is this Yuan Zhengfa going to do?
Listening to his tone, it seems that he wants to deal with the rest of the scholars?
"The old patriarch should have explained to me about the renewal of life that day, right?"
I then didn't go into the details of why he faked his death, but asked me directly about my confusion.
"Don't worry, I'll tell you why I cheated to death."
Yuan Zhengfa spoke.
"Yes."
Hearing this, I said.
Step by step, now that I have met Yuan Zhengfa, I think I can get answers to the things I should know.
Yuan Zhengfa then asked me rhetorically: "Do you know what other scholar clan has a four-grade cultivator in the scholar clan today?" ”
I shook my head.
"No, not one."
Yuan Zhengfa said: "On the bright side, the corporal clan in the world, only I, the Runan Yuan clan, have a four-grade cultivator. ”
My pupils are ...... What?
This was a bit unexpected to me, during this time, I knew the horror of the four-rank cultivators, but I really couldn't imagine that there were no four-rank cultivators in the world.
No matter how rare the number of four products is, it won't be like this, right?
Soon, Yuan Zhengfa solved my doubts again.
"Everything in this world has the influence of both sides, I want to come to Xiaoyou to break through now, it is a deep experience, the four-grade cultivator is a deterrent, but it will also become the target of the public, such as my Runan Yuan family, the tree is a big wind......"
Yuan Zhengfa said slowly: "Therefore, this Tianxia Corporal Clan is not a cultivator without four grades, but every scholar clan has hidden the four rank cultivators!" ”
I suddenly remembered what Mr. Yao had told me before.
Among the scholars, after anyone's realm reaches the sixth grade, it is a secret.
Then, I told the story.
Yuan Zhengfa nodded and said, "Yes, keep the strength of any cultivator after the six grades secret, this is one thing that the scholar clan will do now, and the important reason for this matter must be traced back to a hundred years ago......"
Then, Yuan Zhengfa slowly said what happened back then.
"A hundred years ago, there was such a scholar clan, there was a top four-grade cultivator, this scholar clan is unprecedentedly powerful, not only occupies a lot of qi sources, the clan is full of talents, and the people of the Shi clan in the world are all in awe."
"And the birth of a four-grade cultivator, not only needs excellent talent, but also needs the right time and place, and other influences, sometimes, there may not be a four-grade cultivator for hundreds of years, which also causes, in a certain period of time in the history of the scholars, perhaps, all the scholars are in the vacancy period of the four-grade cultivators......"
"And a hundred years ago, it was this vacant period, except for the unprecedentedly powerful scholar clan who appeared a top fourth-grade cultivator, there was no fourth-grade cultivator in any other scholar clan."
"At that time, the scholar clan could be said to be in the limelight, mastering almost fifty percent of the world's resources, but under this limelight, it must have been coveted and misplaced by most of the scholars!"
"It didn't take long for almost eighty percent of the Shi clan in the world to secretly gather together and secretly deal with this Shi clan with a four-grade cultivator, they used all the dirty means, and they used all the tricks of the three indiscriminate!"
"One punch is hard to defeat four hands, under the siege of many scholars, the four-rank cultivator of this powerful scholar clan finally fell, and this unprecedentedly powerful scholar clan had no choice but to spit out most of the resources in his hands."
When I said this, I clearly saw that a trace of fierce light flashed in Yuan Zhengfa's eyes! The murderous light of hatred and hatred!
At this moment, a thought popped up in my mind......
Then, I said, "So because of this lesson from the past, no scholar clan will expose the fourth-grade cultivators in his clan?" ”
"That's right! Between intimidating others and preventing them from being targeted by the public, almost all the nobles chose the latter. ”
Yuan Zhengfa gradually returned to normal, and he said in a deep voice: "The bloody rain and bloody wind of a hundred years ago...... That powerful scholar clan not only died a top-level fourth-rank, but also the fifth-grade and sixth-rank of the clan, as well as more than half of the clansmen, also died, and it can be said that overnight, from the clouds, fell to the bottom! ”
"After that, there is no scholar clan, and if you dare to gamble, if you become the target of the public, you will be conspired by the major scholar clans again, and the price will be too great."
I nodded, but I asked curiously, "In that case, why are you revealing your strength?" ”
"I can't help it......"
Yuan Zhengfa said a little helplessly: "The world of the scholar clan is treacherous, and powerful, with mysterious secret arts, I don't know how many, after I stepped into the fourth grade, I don't know how many scholars, using powerful secret arts, to explore my strength." ”
"Even, some clan patriarchs, at the cost of losing their lifespan, came to probe my details, in this case, my strength realm, I can't hide too much, and in the end, I can only announce the news that I have stepped into the fourth grade."
And when Yuan Zhengfa said this, the thought that appeared on our side became clearer and clearer.
I then asked, "Why is that?" There are so many corporal clans in the world, why are they targeting you? Why is it aimed at the Runan Yuan clan? ”
Yuan Zhengfa smiled.
Then, he said in a deep voice: "Because the unprecedentedly powerful warrior clan a hundred years ago is my Runan Yuan clan!" That top fourth-grade cultivator is the patriarch of my Runan Yuan clan! ”
When my thoughts were confirmed, my facial muscles tightened unconsciously!
At this moment, the dead body lying in the "Yuan Zhengfa" mourning hall was the top four-grade cultivator of the Yuan clan in Runan a hundred years ago!
