Chapter Twenty-Nine: Old Lady Tang
Ye Feng imagined the battle between these two supreme masters in his mind, and couldn't help but be a little fascinated, and followed behind the old woman with his head down, silent.
At this time, they were already far away from the place where Donghai Yu and Nanshan Chess fought just now, and the pedestrians on the road gradually increased.
The old woman turned around and walked into a secluded alley, Ye Feng didn't think much about it, and followed in.
The old woman suddenly stopped, turned around suddenly, and reached out like lightning and grabbed Ye Feng's wrist. Ye Feng was caught off guard, and was caught in a daze.
But this old woman didn't seem to have any ill will towards Ye Feng, but put three fingers on his veins, as if she was diagnosing his pulse.
After being silent for a long time, the old woman shook her head and said, "You really have a strange poison in your body, but you have not died of poison, it seems that your physique is really different from ordinary people." ”
Ye Feng couldn't help but wonder in his heart, the old woman in front of him was actually proficient in medical skills?
And she said "sure enough", had she heard of it before?
Ye Feng replied with a little snort: "The younger generation is really lucky, and the only daughter of the divine doctor Cheng Sansi has been carefully conditioned by Miss Cheng, who is the only one, and this is the ......."
The old woman shook her head and interrupted him, saying, "If it weren't for your own physique being different from ordinary people, the poison of the legendary golden toad would be so powerful, you would have died of anger as early as the time of poisoning." In addition, you later used martial arts in vain, causing poisonous blood to travel all over the body, not to mention a Cheng girl, even if the gods came, they couldn't save you. ”
When she said this, she sighed softly and said, "Could it be that there is really providence in the dark?"
Ye Feng was horrified in his heart, this old woman not only knew that he had been poisoned by the Golden Toad, but also knew that he had used martial arts in vain to cause the poison. In addition, she knows the unknown martial arts secrets of Donghai Fishing and Nanshan Chess, who is she?
Before he could open his mouth to ask, he felt that the fingers of the old woman above the veins suddenly came with a strong force, and the whole arm was in severe pain, and the whole body was weak, and he almost fell to the ground on his knees.
He looked up in shock, but saw the old woman looking at him with a cold face, and asked sharply, "What are you doing when you suddenly ran from the capital to Lanzhou City?"
Ye Feng was hesitating to tell the old woman all the truth, when he felt that the force from his wrist suddenly intensified, and the bones of his arm seemed to be shattered inch by inch, only to tears in his eyes, and he almost couldn't help but exhale in pain.
At the moment, he didn't dare to hide it, and told how he found the dragon pattern that flickered on his body, how he learned that the pattern was related to the Elder Scrolls from the master of Shaolin, and how the master sent a letter to let them find the ancient city of Loulan, so he went to Lanzhou to find Fu Shuangling, the descendant of Fu Jiezi.
He didn't know whether this old woman was friend or foe, so he only spoke in general terms, but the old woman in front of him didn't seem surprised by this, and she didn't have a surprised expression at all, but kept staring into his eyes, as if to judge whether he was lying or not.
It wasn't until he finished telling the story that the old woman relaxed some of her fingers that were holding his veins and nodded: "You really didn't lie, you are an honest person." ”
Ye Feng was shocked and uncertain for a while, originally he thought that this old woman was a good intention to relieve himself, but he didn't expect to use this method to force himself to ask, could it be that she had the same bad intentions towards herself as the East China Sea fisherman?
Judging from what she just now, I'm afraid that her martial arts will never be much worse than that of the East China Sea fishermen, and she is also a top master, she has simply become a fish on the chopping board, and she can only be at her mercy, this is why she left the tiger's mouth and fell into the wolf's den again!
But judging from her reaction just now, it seems that she already knows what she said, so why bother asking herself?
The old woman looked at Ye Feng silently at this time, as if she was thinking about something, and as if she was facing one in her heart
A big choice.
After a moment, she suddenly sank her face and asked Ye Feng, "If one day, you find that everything around you is a false lie, what will you do?"
Ye Feng was stunned for a moment, this sentence was a clueless question, so strange.
What is "everything around you"? What is "false lies"? Is one's own background, relatives, friends, and all the things that have grown up in the past 20 years considered "everything"?
This question was so vast that Ye Feng couldn't understand it at all, and he didn't know how to answer it for a while.
The old woman looked at his expression, and seemed to feel that her question was a little inappropriate, so she changed the question and asked: "If one day, you find that your life is related to the rise and fall of the whole world and the stability of the people, how will you choose?"
Ye Feng understood this question, since he was a child, he had read a lot of Confucian classics, and he had also heard about the glorious deeds of many heroes, and he had always revered these spirits of sacrificing themselves for the country and the nation in his heart.
So he raised his head and said, "Sacrifice yourself for righteousness!"
The old woman's face softened slightly, and she asked, "What if you need to sacrifice the lives of all your relatives and friends?"
Ye Feng was stunned for a moment, and the faces of his father, master, brothers, and friends flashed in front of him, and finally the faces of Tang Rou and Cheng Nianzhen. A vivid face flashed, and he suddenly hesitated.
The old woman looked at him and suddenly felt a little disappointed, shook her head and said, "Sure enough, you are still too emotional." ”
Ye Feng didn't know whether her words were good or bad, and looked at her a little timidly.
The old woman looked at Ye Feng's eyes, and suddenly looked up at the sky for a long time and sighed: "Perhaps, all this is the will of heaven!"
She let go of her hand, turned to Ye Feng and said, "Let's go, let's go back to the inn first!" After speaking, she strode ahead.
Ye Feng rubbed his wrist, which was almost red and swollen by her, while following quickly, since it was back to the inn, it seemed that this old woman at least had no ill will towards her now.
He couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief in his heart.
Looking at the back of the old woman in front of him, he spontaneously felt a sense of fear in his heart, which made him full of doubts, but he still didn't dare to ask about the identity of this old woman.
Ye Feng cowered and followed behind the old woman and returned to the inn where they lived.
As soon as he entered the lobby of the inn, he saw that it was full of people standing inside.
Of course, these people have two righteous brothers Xie Zhenliang and Zhang Fatzi, the loyal Helian Tie, two girls Tang Rou and Cheng Nianzhen leading the clever and cute little Sanji around them, and there are two other people he also knows, they are Tang Da and Tang Yu, who I haven't seen for a long time!
He was about to go up and say hello to them, but suddenly found that their expressions were strange. The two of them, along with Tang Rou on the side, stood with their hands down with serious faces, looking at the old woman walking in front of Ye Feng with awe-inspiring eyes, did they know her?
At this time, the old woman walked straight up to them, and they all bowed deeply and respectfully, and called, "Grandma!"
Ye Feng almost sat on the ground in shock, and the other people in the inn lobby also looked at each other in surprise, only Xiao Sanji's face was as usual, looking at the old woman curiously, maybe he didn't know her identity at all.
Tang Da, Tang Yu and Tang Rou's grandmother?
Isn't that the head of the Tang Sect in Shuzhong today, the most mysterious and powerful woman in the world, Mrs. Tang!
No wonder she knows Nanshan Qi and Donghai Yu, and she also knows so many unknown secrets about them, the Tang Sect in Shuzhong is all over the world, and it is certainly not unusual to know these secrets in the martial arts.
No wonder her martial arts skills are so high, I'm afraid compared to the two old monsters of Nanshan Qi and Donghai Yu
is not inferior, since the disappearance of her husband Tang Taigong, she has been known as the number one master of the Tang Sect in Shuzhong.
It's no wonder that when she came out of the Qinglong Dart Bureau, Tang Rou hurried so surprised when she saw the secret code of the Tang Gate, presumably to see this old lady Tang.
It's no wonder that this old woman would know so much about him Ye Feng, presumably Tang Da and Tang Rou had already reported it to her.
If it weren't for seeing Tang Da and them respectfully worship, Ye Feng would never have imagined that this old woman who had gone this way with him and was feared was the famous and mysterious Old Lady Tang in the rivers and lakes!
He stood in place in a daze, and he didn't dare to come out.
Old Madam Tang didn't speak, didn't even glance at Tang Da and them, she walked straight through the lobby of the inn and walked to the room upstairs.
Tang Da, Tang Yu and Tang Rou followed her with their heads down, and they rushed up without saying a word.
When they all walked into the room, the people in the lobby breathed a sigh of relief, and Xie Zhenliang and Zhang Fatzi were busy coming to Ye Feng's side and asking what was going on.
Ye Feng smiled bitterly, he is all in the clouds now, where can he understand?
Entering the room, Mrs. Tang sat down on the chair in the room, and Tang Da and the others stood on either side with their heads bowed.
Mrs. Tang coughed and asked, "Did the kid survive well?"
Tang Da hurriedly replied: "It's very smooth, Lasang, who betrayed the child, is dead, and those lamas have retired after we revealed our identities, but ......"
He hesitated for a moment and then said: "The old lama who is the leader is very good at his tantric mudra kung fu, if he really wants to make a move, his grandson may not be able to win the battle with himself, I don't know why they will obediently retreat?"
Mrs. Tang said: "He didn't want to take risks, he wanted to wait for the old monster from the East China Sea to come, and then snatch that little kid when he was sure of victory." ”
Tang Da's face changed: "The East China Sea fishing is coming?"
Old Mrs. Tang sneered: "But his wishful thinking has failed, and the old man has also invited the old guy from Nanshan Qi, it is estimated that most of the two of them will lose at this time, and I am afraid that I will no longer have time to take care of this little child's affairs." ”
Tang Da was secretly shocked when he heard this, he actually needed to alarm top masters like Nanshan Qi and Donghai Yu, what is the identity of this little Sanji, and how can it be so important?
Old Mrs. Tang continued: "Fortunately, I invited Nanshan Chess, otherwise Ye Feng would have been taken away by Donghai Yu today as a hostage in exchange for this child." ”
Tang Da and Tang Rou's faces changed, Tang Da was worried about Ye Feng's safety, and Tang Rou was because she asked Ye Feng to wait by the river today, how could it fall into the hands of Donghai Yu? Could it be that Donghai Yu had been eyeing him early in the morning?
Mrs. Tang glanced at Tang Rou, as if she understood what she was thinking, and said: "This stupid boy coincidentally met the East China Sea fishing by the river, and stupidly took the initiative to run up to talk, only then was the old monster found out his identity, and temporarily wanted to exchange him for the child, but it was not for him." ”
Tang Rou nodded, her hanging heart finally relaxed, she knew that Tang Da especially valued Ye Feng, so she let herself protect Ye Feng's safety, if it was because of her own mistakes that caused Ye Feng to be in danger, she really didn't know how to explain to Tang Da.
Old Mrs. Tang smiled: "If it weren't for the old body to let Nanshan Qi secretly follow the old monster of Donghai Yu and intercept him at the right time, I'm afraid that Ye Feng, an unlucky bastard, would have to suffer a little bit." ”
Tang Da raised his head, looked at the old lady cautiously, and asked softly, "Grandma, you have already seen Ye Feng, have you talked to him?"
Mrs. Tang's face suddenly sank, and she turned her head to look at him with stern eyes, so frightened that he quickly lowered his head, and he didn't dare to come out.
