Chapter 137: Wagers and Inheritance
A good night's sleep.
The next day, not long after Ye Pianran woke up, the room ban was touched.
She got up from the bed, looked at her mother, who was still sleeping inside, smiled, tucked the corners of the quilt for her mother, and walked out of the door after performing a dust cleaning technique.
It was none other than Ye Citian who was waiting in the courtyard.
"You're just in time."
"I can't hide anything from you." Ye Citian smiled and shook his head, "It seems that you already knew that I would come." ”
"Not so." Ye Pianran shrugged, "You asked me to come back, you have to pull Ye Yunzhen, you didn't come back for dinner." ”
"I was about to tell you about it. Actually, it shouldn't have been said by me, but yesterday ......" said, Ye Citian sighed, a little helpless.
"In order to prevent a similar situation from happening again, I decided to tell you everything I knew. But before I say that, can I ask first, how is Mrs. Ren's condition? ”
Last night, after the situation in the front hall was almost dealt with, Ye Citian personally went to the Ye family's treasure house to select a few medicines that could help restore the soul and send them here.
This kind of treasure is not without him himself, but it is similar to the Heart Nourishing Pill and Rejuvenation Jade Liquid in Ye Pianran's hand, the effect is too strong, and it is absolutely unbearable for ordinary people, so he didn't take it out.
At that time, when he saw that the house was strong and forbidden, he did not disturb him, put his things at the door and left.
But I didn't want to see it this morning, and the pile of things hadn't moved at all, so I asked this question.
Following his gaze, Ye Pianran looked at the several jade boxes piled up at the door, but he was not polite, he took a casual look at it and put it away, nodding.
"Mother is fine."
"That's good." Ye Citian breathed a sigh of relief, "In that case, then let's take a step to speak, that matter is not only related to you, but also to Yun Zhen." ”
Ye Pianran naturally didn't have any opinions, "Lead the way." ”
……
The three of them sat down at a stone table under an old locust tree, the lush canopy of which shaded the sunlight and cast a shadow.
Ye Citian sat in the middle of the two daughters, cleared his throat, and said.
"The reason for calling you back this time is the battle two years ago, that is, the one in the ranking battle of your new disciples."
"I guess the one I lost to her." Ye Yunzhen answered in a flat tone, "What's wrong?" ”
I haven't seen him for two years, although Ye Yunzhen has not yet built a foundation, his breath is much more condensed than before, and at a glance, he knows that he is laying a solid foundation and preparing for the foundation.
Not only that, but the pride in her body has dissipated a lot for some reason, and the whole person now seems to be quite a little bit of a state of having gone through thousands of sails and washing away the lead, which is not a little more calm than before.
To build a foundation in this state, if you want to come to the Sanpin Dao platform, it must be nine out of ten.
Ye Pianran glanced at Ye Yunzhen and refocused his gaze on Ye Citian.
"Here's the problem, you lost to Pianran." Ye Citian said, "You know, long before you tested the spiritual root, there was a bet about you within the family. ”
Hearing this, the two girls glanced at each other, and they were full of doubts.
"I don't know." Ye Yunzhen shook his head.
There are two surprises in this news for Ye Pianran, one is the bet itself, and the other is that Ye Yunzhen, as the daughter of the well-known head of the family, the real eldest lady of the Ye family, actually doesn't know anything about it.
In this way, this so-called bet should not be so simple, or rather, it should touch some gray area.
Her eyes flickered, but she didn't speak.
Ye Citian was not surprised by their answer, after all, there were very few people in the entire Ye family who knew about this bet, but every one of them was the core of the family.
"That's the case, you should also know that our Ye family's ancestors were born from the Divine Dao Monarch, and that was about three thousand years ago, and our Ye family also had a place in the Eastern Regions."
"The Ye family has developed rapidly under the protection of the ancestor, and after the death of the ancestor, he left his own lifelong inheritance for the family to protect the foundation of our clan and prosper forever."
About the history of the Ye family, is a compulsory course for every child of the Ye family, after the test of the spiritual root at the age of five, there is a ceremony to enter the ancestral hall and worship the ancestors, according to the elders, it is to thank the ancestors for their strong bloodlines, and bless the children of the Ye family with immortal fate.
Of course, if there is no spiritual root, there will naturally be no such link.
After a pause, Ye Citian continued, "What I want to tell you is that the ancestor inheritance is indeed a thing, and that bet is also related to this. ”
"I seem to have some impression of this." Ye Yunzhen frowned slightly, as if he was recalling a long time ago, "The ancestor inheritance can only be opened once every hundred years, and there can be no more than three people at a time, so the selection control is extremely strict, and the successive heads of the family are also selected from the people who accept the inheritance." ”
Ye Citian nodded, "Exactly." The current head of the family has been in office for less than 100 years, and he has been married for less than 30 years, and he is the most talented and the highest cultivation among the three people who received the inheritance last time, so he was elected as the head of the family without any suspense. At the same time, he is also the first head of the Ye family to cultivate as a Yuan Infant in the past thousand years. ”
"It is precisely because of the particularity of the current head of the family that his two direct bloodlines, that is, the two of you, have received great attention from the family. However, because the head of the family and Mrs. Zhao were married first, the head of the family later disappeared for no reason and brought back Mrs. Ren......"
Speaking of this, he glanced at Ye Pianran, and after finding that the other party had a calm face, he said.
"The Zhao family is very dissatisfied with this matter, but the Zhao family is one less powerful than our Ye family, so they don't dare to say anything. But the Zhao family is not a small family after all, we always have to give an explanation, after the elders discussed, one was to decide to conceal Pianran's identity, and the other was to set this bet. ”
"The content of the bet is that after the two of you grow up, you will fight head-to-head, and the losing side will lose the qualification to obtain the ancestral inheritance."
"That means I'm already disqualified, right?" Ye Yunzhen nodded, there was not the slightest sadness or remorse on his face, "I am willing to gamble and lose, I have nothing to say." ”
Ye Pianran, who had been silent for a long time, spoke, "It shouldn't be that simple." ”
"Just as Pian Ran said." Ye Citian smiled bitterly, "According to the original bet, the matter has already had a result until the battle you fought two years ago." However, the Zhao family was not satisfied and demanded that the bet be invalidated and Yunzhen's inheritance qualification be retained. ”
Ye Yunzhen frowned and said unhappily, "I have never heard of this kind of thing, you don't need to worry, I will make it clear to the Zhao family." If you lose, you lose, and there is no reason to regret it. ”
"You're thinking too simply, Yun Zhen." Ye Citian shook his head and said in a deep voice, "As early as not long after the matter passed, the Zhao family's side suddenly put pressure on our clan, although the strength of the Zhao family is not as good as ours, it should not be underestimated, and besides, it is not cost-effective to lose a partner because of this kind of thing." ”
"So, the Ye family still agreed, right?" Ye Pianran's voice was faint.
"Yes. That's why I've called you two back this time. Ye Citian said, "The request of the Zhao family is that the bet remains the same, but the original bet is invalidated, and they will send a disciple to fight against you, and the outcome of this game will be regarded as the final result." ”
