Volume 3: A Dream of the Divine Capital Chapter 15 (93): The Broken House
After lunch, Lin Qing and Yi Lianyi chatted under the melon shed, chatting about the topics of girls. Zhao An was embarrassed to be there, so he casually made an excuse and left.
After leaving the courtyard, Zhao An and Xiao Yezi wandered aimlessly in Banyan Village. At this moment, the sun is scorching, and it is the time for lunch break, so there are not many pedestrians on the road. This also made Zhao An clean!
If you want to say the most striking place in Banyan Village, it is the ancient banyan tree with a history of 400 years. After spending a little time, Zhao An came to the ancient banyan tree with the little leaves.
The canopy of the ancient banyan tree stretches out in all directions, shielding it from the scorching sun, making it a great place to cool off. When Zhao An arrived, there was a white-haired old man resting under the ancient banyan tree with his eyes closed.
Zhao An took the little leaf to the shade of the tree, found a vacant place and sat down.
Next to the ancient banyan tree is the ruins of a house, dilapidated, covered with moss, which should have been abandoned for a long time.
Since there is nothing to see because of the fertile fields all around, this dilapidated mansion has attracted Zhao An's attention.
"What, boy, are you curious about this house?" said an old voice.
Zhao An turned his head and saw that it was the white-haired old man who woke up. Zhao An nodded and asked, "I am indeed a little interested." This dilapidated house is far away from the rest of the yard, very secluded, and I think there are some stories. ”
The white-haired old man laughed a few times, got up and sat down next to Zhao An, pointed to the dilapidated courtyard and said, "Since you are interested, it doesn't hurt for the old man to tell you about it."
The owner of the house here is called Zhai Huafei, and the official worships the prime minister of this dynasty. After resigning and returning to his hometown, Zhai Huafei lived here with his wife Yin. ”
"Uncle, I have doubts below. Since Zhai Hua is not an official and worships the prime minister, his descendants should also be in his shadow, and the mansion here will not be abandoned, right?" Zhao An interrupted.
"Don't worry, boy, I haven't finished talking yet, old man! Here's the thing, during Zhai Huafei's tenure, he got a strange book. In order to carefully study the strange book, Zhai Huafei resigned and returned to his hometown.
Later, it was rumored that Zhai Huafei broke through the Innate Triple Heaven with his strange book and became the Innate Great Grandmaster. This rumor naturally attracted a lot of interested people, and you should think of it next.
The Zhai family was exterminated by mysterious people, and no one was spared from top to bottom. The yard was abandoned. ”
As soon as the words fell, when Zhao An was still immersed in it, the old man smiled again: "The husband is not guilty, but he is guilty." You say yes, boy!
Although you don't seem to have the strength to do it and don't practice martial arts, in fact, the exercises you cultivate are not inferior to the Zhenzong exercises of the Ten Sects. ”
When these words came into his ears, Zhao An's heart trembled, but he immediately calmed down, and while glancing at Xiao Yezi, he smiled calmly: "My uncle said he laughed." I did practice some martial arts, but they were all big deals. ”
Before the white-haired old man could speak, Xiao Yezi grabbed Zhao An with his left hand, and then his body exploded backwards and spit out a red line of fire at the old man.
Facing the extremely hot crimson line of fire, the white-haired old man's face changed slightly, but he immediately returned to normal. The old man waved his sleeves and punched out, the air around him was tight, and the blue fist light poured out, and the line of fire spit out by the small leaf was drowned in it.
"Hmph!" Xiao Yezi snorted coldly, his right arm ignited a raging red golden flame, and with a punch, the red golden flame on his arm turned into nine flame snakes and suddenly attacked.
Martial Arts ~ Red Gold Flame - Flame Snake Nine Bursts.
The flame snake collided with the blue fist light, triggering gusts of wind that rolled up the dirt on the ground. The collision was not carried out in an instant, and both dissipated, leaving only a large crater with a radius of about three meters in place.
The old man slapped the dust off his body, got up and said, "The old man specializes in cultivating the method of breaking and scattering, and he can break the martial arts strength of ordinary innate grandmasters with a single punch at will.
I didn't expect it to be able to completely break your martial arts. Little girl, your martial arts are good!"
The collision of the innate grandmaster is bound to destroy hundreds of meters around, but the strength of this white-haired old man is quite mysterious, and if he does not destroy it, he will only dissipate the opponent's strength. And depending on the situation, this old man didn't even use his martial arts, and he didn't go all out at all.
Thinking of this, Zhao An breathed a sigh of relief and asked, "The senior didn't do anything ruthlessly just now, so he shouldn't want to take his life." What do you want to do?"
The white-haired old man didn't answer Zhao An's question, but instead asked, "Is there a force of ice and fire in your body that binds your strength?"
Hearing this, Zhao An's face changed greatly. What is the origin of this old man, he actually saw that his strength was locked by the power of ice and fire.
Seeing Zhao An's uncertain face, the white-haired old man smiled and said, "Boy, you don't need to panic, the old man has no ill will towards you." Old man's name is Lin Qu, you should know who I am, right?"
After thinking for a while, Zhao An asked uncertainly, "Could the senior be Miss Lin's grandfather?"
"That's right, I'm Lin Qing's grandfather. Boy, looking at the power of ice and fire in your body, you should have used a unique method to dissipate the power of ice and fire!"
"The senior's eyes are like torches, and he has indeed consumed this power of ice and fire, is there anything wrong with this?" Zhao An wondered.
Lin Qu put his hands behind his back and said with a smile: "There's nothing wrong with it, but the speed of recovering cultivation is slow and it wastes this pure power of ice and fire."
The old man can give you a secret method to quickly absorb the power of ice and fire, you just need to do the old man a favor. How about it, don't think about it?"
Although this old man Lin Qu has no malicious intentions, he can't easily agree to him. There is no such thing as a free lunch.
However, the secret method of quickly absorbing the power of ice and fire is really tempting. Zhao An thought for a while, and asked, "Why don't you tell me what you want to help first, and let me think about it." ”
Lin Qu smiled: "You kid is quite cautious! Don't worry, it's not a difficult thing." After you recover your cultivation with the secret method, I will let you compete with my granddaughter Lin Qing, as long as you defeat her. How?"
"If that's all there is to it, you can say yes below. Zhao An said.
"Very good, tonight's third watch, you wait for me here. After speaking, the blue light around Lin Qu's body flashed, and he disappeared in place in the blink of an eye.

At sunset.
The northern city of the divine capital, the woods outside the Su He set.
In the woods, Hua Xi covered her mouth and nose with the sleeves of her raincoat, and quietly watched her subordinates inspect the two corpses on the ground. Although the corpse was unrecognizable, it could still be seen from the clothes that it was the two Xiuyuzong disciples killed by Song Lei.
After a cup of tea, the Xiuyu Sect disciple who was inspecting the corpse came over and said, "Young Sect Master, the subordinates are incompetent, only found out that the time of death of the two junior disciples was probably yesterday evening, and I don't know anything else." Please atone for your sins. ”
Hearing the advice of her subordinates, Hua Xiyu frowned and asked, "Have you checked carefully?
"Young Sect Master, my subordinates have carefully checked it with the Exploration Secret Method, and there are no clues. It's as if this person is very proficient in the secret method of exploring the sect, and has wiped out everything that can be checked. ”
After listening to the spy's words, Hua Xiyu felt a headache, rubbed her forehead lightly, and waved her hand: "Go down!"
After the subordinates retreated, a slight burning sensation came from Hua Xiyu's wrist, and the green jade bracelet on the wrist turned red at this time.
Hua Xiyu lightly touched the green jade bracelet, and a white light flew out and haunted her forehead. After a while, Hua Xiyu's face showed joy.
The white light just now was the news from the other side of the Jingjiang River, and a spy found Gao Yang's whereabouts in Rongshu Village near the river. The specific location is in front of the dilapidated house next to the ancient banyan tree in the village, but the details are unknown.
"After disposing of the body, we immediately took a boat to the other side. By the way, remember to inform Elder Shen to go directly to Banyan Village. After Hua Xiyu finished speaking, he used his skills and left the woods.
At the same time, a certain mountain forest outside the village of Banyan Tree.
In the mountains and forests, Song Lei sat in front of an overgrown dirt bag with his eyes closed, as if waiting for something.
