The old man spurted out a few mouthfuls of blood, but his chest and lungs were much more comfortable, and he hurriedly stretched out a palm to stop him: "Qi'er must not be rude, Senior Ma is for the good of his father!"

The three people in the audience immediately breathed a sigh of relief, saw that the old man's expression was much more relaxed, and hurriedly bowed down to thank Cheng Ling.

Cheng Ling said indifferently: "Okay, your fire poison has been removed by me, and it will take a little time for the remaining meridians to recover, as long as it takes some time, it can be recovered." ”

Zhou Zhiyuan was full of joy, hearing him say this, and was afraid that his father's injury would recur, so he invited: "Seniors might as well stay in my Zhou family for a few days, if you have any instructions, please make it clear, Zhiyuan will do his best." ”

Cheng Ling smiled, of course he wouldn't cure all the old men so easily, leaving some heads and tails, and he could order his family to do things for himself. Seeing that Zhou Zhiyuan said very sincerely, he agreed.

The old man was overjoyed, and hurriedly ordered: "Fu Bo, take the seniors to the guest room to have a good rest, and be entertained." ”

Fu Bo agreed, and left with Cheng Ling.

The girl came to the edge of the bed and asked, "Daddy, how are you feeling?"

The old man waved his hand, looked at Zhou Zhiyuan and said, "Zhiyuan, what is the origin of this senior, you can tell me in detail." ”

Zhou Zhiyuan told the process of getting to know Cheng Ling in detail, and after finishing speaking, he closed his mouth and looked at the old man without saying a word.

The old man pondered for a while, and speculated: "According to what you said, this senior Ma should not be a southern monk, but the first time to come to Xiangcheng, if he is really a Dan Dao Grandmaster above the seventh grade, maybe it is a new hope for the rise of my Zhou family!"

"I just don't know what kind of character he is looking for, and it is inconvenient for him to show up to release the task, but to borrow the hand of my Zhou family?"

Zhou Zhiyuan asked: "Dad, do you mean that this senior deliberately concealed his identity and wanted to borrow our hands to help him find out the news?"

"Yes, Zhiyuan, my father has just gone, and it is not easy to act for the time being, so you go and ask your father what news you want to find. Remember, you must be respectful to your predecessors, as far as I can guess, his cultivation is still above his father!"

"What?" the girl was shocked and asked, "Daddy, you said that his cultivation is still above you, is it a monk of the Tribulation Period?"

The old man waved his hand and said, "Qi'er, there are countless people with extremely high talents in this world, and how many young and handsome people are above their fathers. But you, you must learn more from your brother, be humble and cautious, hey, it's all for your father to spoil you. ”

The girl stuck out her tongue, put her arms around the old man's neck, and said coquettishly: "Daddy, isn't Qi'er very filial to you." ”

The old man shook his head with a wry smile, there was nothing he could do about his daughter, he turned his eyes and thought of his son and said, "Zhiyuan, you go first, just accompany Qi'er here!"

Zhou Zhiyuan agreed, and then withdrew. Leaving the old man's room, he walked towards the guest room where Cheng Ling was.

When he came to the outside of the guest room, he stood aside respectfully and shouted, "Senior, Zhou Zhiyuan asks to see!"

"Come in!" Cheng Ling said indifferently, and with a bend of his right hand, the door opened with a "squeak".

Zhou Zhiyuan entered the guest room, bowed respectfully, and said, "Thank you seniors for saving my father." ”

Cheng Ling said indifferently: "It's okay, in another day, Ling Zun's injuries will be able to recover, but if you want to recover to your heyday, I'm afraid you need other means." ”

Zhou Zhiyuan said: "Please also ask the seniors to work hard, my Zhou family is grateful to Dade." ”

Cheng Ling swept it

He glanced at it and asked, "What kind of family is your Zhou family, and how many children do you have?"

Zhou Zhiyuan pondered for a moment, and finally gritted his teeth and said: "Our Zhou family is a native of the south, and it was also prosperous for a time tens of thousands of years ago. But later, the family fell into the middle of the road, and was gradually squeezed out by the Ouyang family and major forces, and it was no longer the grand occasion of the past. The children of the family are withering more and more, and now, there are less than a few thousand people left. ”

"Oh, the Ouyang family, but the Ouyang family, one of the nine major forces in the Canglan Continent?"

"That's not it, how can we look up to the Ouyang family, one of the nine major forces, they are still further south, what I am talking about is just a branch of the Ouyang family. ”

"Well, what's going on with Ling Zun's injury?"

"The injury suffered by my father is related to the Ouyang family. Our Zhou family has been a talisman family since tens of thousands of years ago, and the talisman inheritance is not to say that it is in the south, even in the entire Canglan Continent. ”

"There are many mountains and jungles in the southern region, and there are naturally many demon beasts, so they have unique conditions. The Ouyang family is coveting our talisman inheritance, which is difficult in every way, unfortunately we are inferior to each other in terms of overall strength, several conflicts, and finally were seriously injured by the people of the Ouyang family. ”

Cheng Ling suddenly realized that the Ouyang family had the least contact with the seven forces in the south, on the one hand, it was also the farthest away from the Famous Sword Academy, and on the other hand, it was heard that the Ouyang family was also good at making talismans. The rest of the Cheng family and the Liu family each have their own means of making a living, and they have a greater conflict with the Famous Sword Academy.

He recalled the situation in his mind, Zhou Zhiyuan stood aside, his lips squirmed, and finally he couldn't bear it, and asked, "Senior, I don't know who you need us to look for?"

Cheng Ling retracted his thoughts, glanced at him, and said indifferently: "It's too early to say this, let's talk about it after your father recovers." ”

Zhou Zhiyuan was confused, looking at Cheng Ling's expression in the mission hall at that time, he seemed to be anxious to know the whereabouts of his friend, why was he not in a hurry at this time.

He didn't know that after the treatment of the injury, Cheng Ling had completely understood. The real power of the Zhou family is completely in the hands of the old man, Zhang Zhiyuan is only a young master at best, and he is not deeply involved in the world, and he does not have much real power.

Zhou Zhiyuan saw that Cheng Ling was not interested, and he didn't seem to want to talk deeply, so he knew the opportunity to leave.

The next day, the old man's injuries were really much better, and his cultivation had recovered a little, and he could walk on the ground normally, so he called Zhou Zhiyuan over and asked Cheng Ling in detail about his attitude.

Zhou Zhiyuan reported what Cheng Ling said yesterday, and finally said: "Father, Zhiyuan is puzzled, that senior has been refusing to tell who he is looking for, and I don't know how to repay him. ”

The old man sighed in his heart and said, "It's not that he doesn't want to say, but he is waiting for his father to go and ask." ”

Zhou Zhiyuan's mind flashed and asked, "Dad's consciousness is that he is waiting for the price to sell?"

"Yes, now that my father's injuries are mostly healed, it's time to talk to him. ”

"Yes, the child will go with his father!"

The old man's face was full of relief, Zhou Zhiyuan was extremely talented, and he was able to reach the late stage of distraction at a young age, which was much stronger than himself. It's just that his temperament is too pure, and he has been under the protection of the family's wings, and he has too little contact with the cultivation world.

Following his son's guidance, he soon came to the outside of Cheng Ling's guest room. He didn't get in easily, but

Standing outside the door, he said respectfully: "Zhou Changtian asks to see Senior Ma." ”

"Squeak", the door opened, Cheng Ling stood in front of the door and said, "The head of the Zhou family is here, please come in quickly." ”

Zhou Changtian's face was a little pale, Cheng Ling still knew etiquette very well, how to say that he was also the head of the Zhou family, although the other party's cultivation was higher than his own, and it was a kind of respect to open the door to greet him in person.

He paced into the guest room, chose a chair and sat down, and said, "The senior has a pleasant stay in my Zhou family, if you have any requirements, please tell the maid and tell the old man directly." ”

Cheng Ling sat down on the main seat and said indifferently: "Master Zhou, I'm afraid I'm not just here to ask about the living conditions below, if you have anything to say, it doesn't hurt to say anything." ”

Zhou Changtian smiled bitterly, this young man was too shrewd, and he was even aggressive when he spoke. It's just that the other party's cultivation is much higher than his own, and he is kind to himself, so he doesn't dare to attack easily, so he can only say helplessly: "The seniors laughed, the old man's injuries were more than the seniors' hands, and I came to thank you today!"

Cheng Ling said with a smile: "There is no need to say thank you, I said before that it is not in vain to treat your injuries, and there are some things that the head of the Zhou family is invited to do." ”

Zhou Changtian stubbornly asked, "I don't know what it is, please ask my seniors to command." ”

"It's very simple, I want to find a few people, Jian Wuya, the master of the Sword Academy of the Famous Sword Academy, the core disciple of the Sword Academy of the Sword Academy, I don't know if the master of the Zhou family is willing to help?"

Zhou Changtian was shocked in his heart, he knew that what Cheng Ling entrusted must be extraordinary, but he didn't expect that it would be a disciple looking for the Famous Sword Academy. Since more than ten years ago, the Famous Sword Academy was attacked by several major forces, and it fell apart within a few days, leaving only a few disciples scattered in the Canglan Continent.

Now that the other party has asked himself to look for the traces of these people, could it be that he is the remnant of the Famous Sword Academy? In this way, isn't he standing on the opposite side of the seven major forces in the south and the big forces of the Canglan Continent?

For a moment, he didn't know how to answer.

Cheng Ling said indifferently: "Master Zhou, with your shrewdness, you must also know my relationship with the Famous Sword Academy, the Ming people don't say secret words, if you help me achieve this matter, I will let you completely resume your cultivation, and maybe you can go further." If you don't want to, then leave immediately. ”

"But your Zhou family must keep this matter a secret, if I learn that something is wrong, the entire Zhou family will be wiped out in an instant!"

The tone was cold, and the words he said made Zhou Changtian and Zhou Zhiyuan couldn't help but shiver.

Zhou Changtian pondered for a long time, and said helplessly: "Senior, you should know that the southern region has always been the territory of the Ouyang family, and if the Zhou family takes the initiative to find out the news of the disciples of the Famous Sword Academy, it is no less than swatting flies on the head of a tiger." ”

"Presumably, Zhiyuan, this kid has already told all the things about the old man's injury, just a branch of the Ouyang family makes it difficult for my Zhou family to deal with, not to mention the Ouyang family, one of the nine major forces, this is really difficult for us. ”

Cheng Ling chuckled, stood up, and paced back and forth in the room. Zhou Changtian and Zhou Zhiyuan also stood up busily, and their eyes didn't dare to take their eyes off him.

Cheng Ling thought for a long time before saying, "I know the scruples of the Zhou family master, let's put it another way, or you can accept it like this." If your Zhou family can help me find the whereabouts of the disciples of the Famous Sword Academy, maybe in the near future, I will be able to restore my former glory!"

Zhou Changtian froze, a trace of blood ignited in his chest, and asked: "What does the senior mean, do you want to support my Zhou family to become the top force in the south?"
