Chapter 248: Thank you, thank you
Retracting her palm from the crystal ball, the old woman's body trembled, and there was still a hint of madness in her eyes.
After a while, Gu Feng, who thought that he was against her will, had been executed with his own hands, and slowly calmed down, flicked the sleeves of his robe, and shook the thing out. The whole body is jet black, about one zhang long, the halberd is sharp, there are crescents on both sides, and the cold light is flickering.
The power of the sage is unfathomable and unpredictable. This trick is in the sleeve, it can form its own space in the sleeve, not only can it be the same as the Rong Ring, it can accommodate objects, but also can contain living things, and the width of the space is far from being comparable to the Rong Ring. Of course, for the old woman, it's just a small try, and it's not worth mentioning at will.
This halberd was cast by a mechanical craftsman in the Xuantie building, and it was only a low-grade mortal soldier, but under the anger of the Spirit Fox Ancestor, it exploded with soul power, causing a sensation in the entire secret realm, and was incomprehensible to the treasure, so it attracted fierce competition, resulting in the death of many people.
There is no more coincidence in the world than this.
The old woman picked up the halberd, looked at it in front of her eyes for a while, her heart was a little wider, she smiled slightly, and then withdrew her sleeve.
Although this thing is a mortal thing, it has triggered a series of interesting events, collected it, put it on the shelf, and in your spare time, go to a look, see things, think about people, and remember things, which is also an elegant thing.
The old woman flicked her hand on the crystal ball, the scene changed, and when she saw Chu Tian sitting on the flat stone and waiting, she shot into a trace of vitality, and the vitality was channeled, and her mind was conveyed to the secret realm.
The makeup mirror swirled, the sound of water sounded, Chu Tian was startled, that mental experience, although it can improve his will, it is enough to try once, and he never wants to come back a second time.
This kind of exercise, from the outsider's point of view, does not feel difficult, but for the people in the bureau, it is tantamount to a disaster, after thousands of reincarnations, honing the mind, although it is not impossible, but it is like taking chestnuts in the fire, if the fortune is deep, or can be a taste of the sweetness of chestnuts, but if there is a slight difference in the pool, once it falls in, it will be a walking corpse, and it will never be able to turn over.
In short, the risk is 100 times greater than the chance, and under normal circumstances, no one would do such an unwise move.
Fortunately, the formation of the whirlpool did not produce suction, and then strongly sucked Chu Tian inside, but shot a water arrow upward, and it galloped away, and in the blink of an eye, it was somewhere on the top of the cave.
As if touching some kind of mechanism, the cave shook slightly, and the wall behind it trembled, and it split open, as if pushing open two doors, Chu Tian's face was happy, he got up from the flat stone, and walked briskly to investigate.
The walls parted from it, and a secret passage appeared behind it. In the cave, there are pearls illuminating, but there are no pearls in the secret passage, and it is not clear to see inside. Chu Tian calmly picked out a large pearl from the ring and held it in his hand, it was bright and bright, and the lantern was also like a lantern. Take advantage of the light, be cautious, and walk slowly.
The ground of the secret passage is full of potholes, the route is like a snake, dark and damp, the slightest cold air invades the skin and penetrates the skin, Chu Tian holds a pearl in his hand, dispelling the darkness, twisting and turning, and going deeper.
Seeing this scene in the crystal ball, the old woman smiled and muttered to herself: "Grandma's inheritance is not easy to accept, I hope you can succeed." I didn't want you to get hurt when I performed so well before. ”
A strange laugh sounded, and its sound was like thunder, rolling and spreading, shattering the void, and the soul of the listener was scattered, and the liver and gall were broken.
Killing Gu Feng with his own hands, his mood was a little better, but he was always sentimental and caused the old things.
The dust settled, and the inheritance returned to Chutian. The old woman didn't observe the scene of the secret realm, her face was sad, and she came to her senses in a daze, looking back on the past as if she was in another world, and tracing the root of the changes in her life.
Decades ago, her husband died because of a fight with others, first, he was tired of fighting in the rivers and lakes, and secondly, when Lu Zhong was young, he left his hometown to find a secret place, hide from the enemy, and raise his son.
Walking to the Yinhui City area, because of the secluded valley, quiet forests, and fog everywhere, it is refreshing, so I settled down here.
During the day, he instructed Lu Zhong to practice martial arts. At that time, although he did not have the power of heaven and magic, he was also a good hand in the Gang Realm, and he could not dominate one side and cover the sky with one hand, but it was more than enough to teach his son.
At night, I took Lu Zhong to travel with him, walked on the forest path, went to see the fog that gathered or scattered, blew the cool breeze that stirred his clothes, listened to the frightened birds that left the nest, and bathed in the evenly sprinkled moonlight.
Sometimes, Lu Zhong hunted beasts in the forest, although he didn't care what he said, he secretly followed him, and he was worried about the accident.
Sometimes, Lu Zhong makes appointments with good friends, travels, sits at home, his heart is like frying, meaning fire, living like a year, looking forward to it.
Or the kitchen is busy, skillfully cooking, bringing out hometown food, all kinds of food, looking at Lu Zhong gobbling up, with a happy smile on his face.
Or work in the stream, wash the clothes that Lu Zhong has changed, wash them and take them back to dry, and fold them neatly in the wardrobe one by one, clean and refreshing, for backup. I know very well that when I practice martial arts, I always have to leave a lot of sweat, and if I don't change my clothes frequently, it will be uncomfortable.
In the deep valley and secluded forest, although there is no prosperity and color in the outside world, it is also harmless and disaster-free, and you can see the wild scenery in the forest. The most important thing is that Aiko accompanies and grows up healthily. For a mother, there is nothing more important in the world.
All the happiness stayed before Lu Zhong was seventeen years old.
That year, Lu Zhong was successful in martial arts, and suddenly on a whim, he proposed to go out to travel. The old woman hesitated, because unlike before, this time she had to go to a far place, and she could not follow all the way, if something went wrong, what should she do.
Lu Zhong was unexpectedly resolute, the two argued, and even had a big quarrel, Lu Zhong said a lot. It is necessary to break away from the protection of elders and rely on oneself to achieve things.
The old woman thought about it carefully, and also felt that what she said was reasonable, not to mention that Lu Zhong was very competitive, under her guidance, he had already been promoted to the Yunqi realm, and he should have the ability to protect himself, and after thinking about it again, she finally nodded and agreed.
On the day of parting, she told her son to pack up one by one, and she must bring all the items, and handed over the long stick left by her husband to Lu Zhong to take away.
In addition, he handed over the delicacies cooked by himself to Lu Zhong for storage. In addition to filling and bulging the package, the space for the ring was also stuffed, and it was still waiting to be taken again, Lu Zhong couldn't cry and laughed, and sternly refused.
Unexpectedly, Lu Zhong left, but he never returned. Since a certain day, I have not received any letters in the Yinhui City Station, and I have been doing this for several months, and I realized that something had happened.
According to the content of Lu Zhong's last letter, he located the country where the town was located, left the secluded forest retreat, embarked on a long journey, spent a huge amount of money to buy xenomorph horse beasts, and came to the country within half a month.
Due to the vague positioning, to find Lu Zhong's news, there is no doubt that it is extremely difficult to find a needle in a haystack, and many inquiries are ineffective, so in desperation, he travels all over the country, goes to various intelligence organizations, and issues tasks, and the reward is very huge.
After checking for a long time, there was no result, and when the old woman was desperate, a message suddenly came from a certain organization. Under the organization's arrangement, an appointment was made with the intelligence provider.
The informant is a handsome young man with a decent face, which makes people feel good at it. At least the old woman had a good impression of this person.
"Hello, aunt, my name is Wang Qun. Lu Zhong is my best friend, although he doesn't spend much time together, he gets along well in personality, and he is like a brother. His tragic death is a pain in my heart. Wang Qun's face showed grief and opened his mouth to speak.
The old woman howled miserably, her shoulders shrugged, and she began to cry, although she had expected it, but it was still painful to confirm the news.
"Auntie, please mourn. Wang Qun persuaded on the side.
The old woman raised her hand to wipe away her tears, calmed her emotions, and asked, "Lu Zhonghe, how did he die?" ”
"Auntie, don't worry, listen to me one by one. Wang Qun comforted the old woman and began to talk nonsense. The origin of the treasure and the address were not concealed, and in order to avoid trouble, the special relationship between Lu Zhong and Yin Yan was not exhausted, and the facts were also distorted in Lu Zhong's death.
In his mouth, Lu Zhong died in the basilisk in the dark river in the cave, spewing water arrows from his mouth, hitting Lu Zhong, seriously injured and drowning. said seamlessly, anyway, the basilisk was harmed by the basilisk there, and there were countless corpses at the bottom of the river, so it was impossible to identify whether it was Lu Zhong or not.
After listening to Wang Qun's detailed explanation, the old woman was sad and could not help herself, so she hid her face and cried for a while. It is a pity that she lost her father first, then her son, and her beloved son died in a different place, and she did not even leave a corpse.
"Thank you, thank you. After mourning, the old woman got up and bowed deeply to Wang Qun, and was full of emotion: "The virtuous nephew and my son, but the friends of Pingshui, came to report the news of righteousness and solve the doubts in my heart. ”
"I can't do it. Wang Qun's face was frightened, and he hurriedly stepped forward to dissuade him.
The old woman still bowed firmly. Straightened up, took out the Rong Ring that had been prepared earlier, which contained the prepared reward, handed it to Wang Qun with both hands, and said, "This is the reward that the virtuous nephew deserves, please check it." ”
"Lu Zhong is my brother, report a letter, raise your hands, what kind of remuneration do you want. Wang Qun pretended to be surprised and pushed the old woman's hand away.
"Hey, you can't do this, you don't accept it, how do we take a share. "The intermediaries of the intelligence organization were dissatisfied.
"This..."Wang Qun couldn't answer, and smiled: "I didn't expect this." He immediately frowned and looked at the intermediary: "We are a special case, can't we make an exception once." ”
The intermediary replied expressionlessly: "No, if you breach the contract, both parties will be blacklisted, and we will send a master to seize the due share, and we have to return." ”
"It's so inhumane. Wang Qun complained with a sad face.
The old woman was really grateful, but how could she let Wang Qun suffer such trouble, took his hand, and couldn't help but put Rong Ring in her palm: "People still have to do business, and if they refuse, my aunt will be angry." ”
Wang Qunfang reluctantly accepted, and the intermediary stepped forward to check, the number was correct, and he drew his due share. Wang Qun and the old woman left the organization and talked on the street.
"Auntie, my house is not far from here, so it's better to go and sit down. Wang Qun sent out an invitation.
The old woman shook her head, Lu Zhong died, where did she have the heart to engage in these entertainments, so she politely refused.
The two parted goodbye, and because of the different directions, they staggered by, and at that moment, the old woman did not see the gloomy smile outlined on the corner of Wang Qun's mouth.
