The night breeze is full of sleeves, and the girl has her own little secret and refuses to tell anyone.

Although Ji Mingze didn't wait for Ji Furong's answer, how could he not see the careful thinking of his juniors after the vicissitudes of life, and said softly: "That is the case, if he participates in the competition tomorrow to recruit a son-in-law, you remember to show me, let me see this young handsome man who defeated my little Furong." ”

Ji Furong's cheeks turned a little red, but she didn't want to continue to hide her thoughts, and said very bravely and softly, "Okay." ”

The bright moon rises in the east, shining on the earth with the bright galaxy.

Not long after, two figures, one old and one young, had already come to the door of Jijia Wuyuan.

There was a figure standing in front of the door, it was the dignified and dignified third master of the Ji family.

After Ji Daozheng saw the figure of his ancestor, he hurriedly stepped forward and walked a few steps, and greeted Shi Li: "Daozheng has seen the ancestor, there are guests arriving during the day, and I haven't had time to meet the ancestor, please forgive the ancestor." ”

Ji Mingze waved his hand to show that it was okay, and asked, "Is the visitor from the day being the young man surnamed Meng?"

Ji Daozheng nodded and said calmly: "The young man returned injured, I'm afraid he didn't encounter a chance." ”

Ji Furong's heart trembled slightly, and an inexplicable worry overflowed to the corners of her mouth, as long as she opened her lips, she would be able to send out a series of nervous questions.

She knew that she shouldn't have these inappropriate thoughts of children's affection at this moment, but she just couldn't control her thoughts.

Ji Mingze glanced at Ji Furong and asked the question she wanted to ask the most, "Is there a big problem with that young man?"

Ji Daozheng thought for a moment and replied: "As long as he didn't die in the battle at that time, then there would be salvation, as for whether there will be sequelae, it is unknown." ”

Hearing the first half of the sentence, Ji Furong breathed a sigh of relief, but when she heard the second half of the sentence, a heart that had just been put down was lifted again.

Ji Mingze sighed and ordered: "Since that young man was injured in Wuyuan, then it is appropriate for us to visit the door, and it can also show the bearing of the Ji family." Go back and make arrangements, let the next person prepare a small gift, and visit the door. ”

Ji Daozheng nodded.

After gossiping, the three of them began to enter the Jijia Wuyuan.

All the way through the courtyard and corridor, slowly came to the door of the inner courtyard of Jijia Wuyuan.

Ji Mingze looked at the very valuable gate, and couldn't help sighing: "In the past, my Ji family was so noble, even this door that few people cared about was made of overseas precious wood, but today, it can only barely maintain without decline, I don't know if the ancestors are too powerful, or our descendants are too unscrupulous." ”

After sighing, Ji Mingze waved his sleeves, the door opened, and the dark courtyard came into the eyes of the three of them.

In the daytime, there is a faint mist in the courtyard, and at this time it is almost impossible to see the five fingers, and even the bright moonlight can hardly penetrate the layers of mist.

Ji Mingze stood under the eaves behind the door and asked softly, "Do you two know the method of passing through this formation?"

Ji Daozheng was very ashamed and said: "The child is not good, it is difficult to understand the tricks, and he wandered in it many times, but he still failed to understand the true meaning, and he always failed and returned." ”

Ji Mingze looked at Ji Furong, who hadn't spoken for a long time, and asked in a harmonious voice, "Does Little Furong know?"

Ji Furong also shook her head like Ji Daozheng and said, "I haven't been here before, so I don't know the method of passing through the formation here, so I ask my ancestor for guidance." ”

Ji Mingze smiled and said: "In this case, I will tell you the two of you the secret here, it depends on whether you can understand it thoroughly, whoever realizes the true meaning first will be the new head of the Ji family." ”

As soon as these words came out, Ji Furong and Ji Daozheng both pricked up their ears, for fear of missing the slightest detail.

However, Ji Mingze only said a very short sentence.

"The method of passing through the formation here is on the door. ”

"What do you mean? There's nothing on the door?"

At this moment, Ji Furong and Ji Daozheng were both looking at the ancestor of the Ji family in confusion, hoping that he could say something more.

Unfortunately not.

After Ji Mingze finished saying that, he slowly stepped into the darkness, and disappeared in front of the two of them in an instant.

Ji Furong and Ji Daozheng glanced at each other, slowly withdrew from the courtyard, and carefully looked at the gate under the dark light.

After Ji Mingze entered the formation, he walked like Meng Ran, slowly came to the bottom of the rockery, and then climbed the steps.

The furnishings in the pavilion are still the same as before, but the chess piece that Meng Ran fell has long since disappeared.

Ji Mingze sat on the stone bench and looked at the chessboard thoughtfully, and the memories of that year came to mind like a tide.

Once upon a time, Ji Mingze was also a talented young man, after wandering in the garden of enlightenment many times, he found that the arrangement of the iron door nails above the gate of the inner courtyard was a little strange, and after several times of research, he knew the true meaning and came to the pavilion on the rockery.

At that time, Ji Mingze was only twenty-five years old.

When he entered the pavilion, he saw through the secret on the chessboard at a glance, and for the sake of safety, he did not open the mechanism directly, but found a servant with whom he had a good personal relationship.

According to Ji Mingze's guidance, the servant placed the white chess pieces on the chessboard.

With the sound of a machine spring ringing, Ji Mingze watched the entourage fall into the trap.

After the machine closed, the white chess piece placed on the chessboard, under the action of a strange external force, turned into dust and disappeared into the breeze.

Since then, Ji Mingze has had an inexplicable sense of resistance to the chessboard in the pavilion.

But his intuition told him that the real family heirloom of the Ji family was hidden in it.

Later, some changes occurred in the Ji family, the prime of life and the elders in the family were slaughtered, Ji Mingze relied on the family heirloom exercises in his memory, and encountered martial arts barriers one after another.

In order to break through these barriers and revive his family's reputation, Ji Mingze traveled abroad, and finally worshiped under Li Qixian's disciple and became the apprentice grandson of Sword Immortal Li Qinglian.

It's a pity that his qualifications are limited, and he only became a registered disciple of Li Qixian.

That year, Ji Mingze was already past the year of knowing the destiny of heaven.

Later, Li Qixian went to sea to find his father, Ji Mingze and a group of young colleagues practiced in the master's sect, and met a swordsman who came to provoke him.

Ji Mingze, who didn't dare to draw his sword, escaped from the division and ran all the way back to Jiangnan, and since then, he has been hiding in the Ji family.

Time flies, years pass.

More than 20 spring and autumn seasons have passed, and the middle-aged man who did not dare to draw his sword and had mediocre qualifications has become the ancestor of the Ji family in the fairyland.

Until today, Ji Mingze finally learned the true secret of the Ji family's Wuyuan from the mouth of his uncle, and dared to bring the two juniors to the Wuyuan, and dared to come to the rockery again.

As for how the junior uncle Li Baiyi learned the true secret of Ji Jiawuyuan, this is naturally a headless unsolved case, Li Baiyi doesn't say it, and few people in the world dare to take the initiative to ask.

Time reads minute by minute in memory.

Before you know it, the time has passed.

Ji Mingze got up slowly, looked up at the waning moon above his head, and a trace of disappointment rose in his heart.

The two most promising juniors of the Ji family, when they learned the secret of passing through the formation, still couldn't understand the true meaning, which was really disappointing.

Ji Mingze sighed faintly, and was about to make a move when he heard a burst of light footsteps.

Looking at it, the person who came was Ji Furong.

When Ji Furong came to the rockery, Ji Mingze said in a harmonious voice: "According to the previous agreement, you are the new head of the Ji family, and you will need to take care of the affairs of the family in the future. ”

Ji Furong smiled, saluted Ji Mingze, and said respectfully: "Furong will definitely not live up to the expectations of her ancestors, and she will definitely work hard to restore the former glory of my Ji family." ”

Ji Mingze smiled faintly and said, "It's man-made, you just need to be diligent and attentive." ”

Just as the two were talking, there was another figure under the rockery, it was Ji Daozheng who realized the true meaning of the formation after Ji Furong.

Ji Daozheng listened to the conversation between the two clearly, the corners of his eyes twitched slightly, and he walked to the rockery with a sinking face.

Without waiting for the orders of the ancestor of the Ji family, Ji Daozheng had already hugged his fist at Ji Furong and said, "I have seen the head of the family." ”

Ji Furong did not pretend to be the head of the family, and said very respectfully: "The third uncle is too polite, in the future, Furong will rely on your might, I hope the third uncle can fully support me." ”

"It's nature. Ji Daozheng said lightly.

After the two juniors finished greeting, Ji Mingze pointed to the chessboard on the table and said, "Do you two know what this chessboard is?"

Ji Daozheng, who knew that he had no chance to be the head of the family, just kept silent, and looked at his niece out of the corner of his eye.

The corners of Ji Furong's mouth curled slightly, and she said confidently: "I think the white chess pieces on this chessboard are arranged in the same way as the iron door nails on the gate. ”

Ji Mingze nodded and then shook his head again, and said, "What Xiao Furong said is neither right nor right. ”

Ji Daozheng, who was watching the play on the side, had half a smile in his eyes, as if he was waiting to see his niece's joke.

Ji Furong looked at the ancestor of the Ji family and asked softly, "Ancestor, what did I guess wrong?"

Ji Mingze said slowly: "You said that the method of opening the organ here is naturally right, but you will not directly see the heirloom secret left by our ancestors, before that, there will be a test, and the secret of that test is only five words, that is, 'seven in and thirteen out', as for what to say, I don't know now." Which of you two would like to try it?"

Ji Daozheng immediately looked down at the ground, as if the ground was engraved with the Ji family's peerless sword intent, which made him obsessed and unwilling to take care of ordinary things.

When Ji Mingze saw Ji Daozheng's appearance, a wisp of disdain rose in his heart, and he turned to Ji Furong and said: "Then work hard for little Furong to go through, with your ingenuity, you will definitely be able to find the secret left by the ancestor."

Your third uncle and I are waiting for you here, I hope you don't disappoint the two of us, and don't let the old and young of the Ji family down. ”

Ji Furong smiled bitterly in her heart, but a calm smile appeared on her face, and said: "Furong is willing to give it a try, and she will do her best to not disappoint her ancestors." ”

In the following time, there was an extra white chess piece on the chessboard, and Ji Furong disappeared into the pavilion.
