Chapter 39: The Visit
Wu Ming didn't kill Liu Hai, nor did he kill the three Pingbu Sect veterans. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
After all, he is not a ruthless person, although these people pose a threat to the safety of the Wu family, but Wu Ming feels that they are not guilty to death, so he doesn't want to do things to the end.
Of course, the reason why they didn't kill them was also because there was still a flat door standing behind them. Wu Ming didn't know if Lao Dao would be able to deal with Pingbu Gate, so he had to leave a little space for himself.
In addition, what Lao Dao had said before in his mind also had an impact on Wu Ming. Lao Tao said: "Man, the most spiritual person in heaven and earth." All sentient beings are immortal seeds. Therefore, as a last resort, Wu Ming was unwilling to make a dead hand.
That night, Wu Ming returned to his residence and rested.
When he woke up the next day, Wu Ming only said one sentence to Wu Qing: "It's okay." ”
So Wu Qing knew that Wu Ming had solved everything, although he didn't know how Wu Ming solved it.
Wu Ming became more and more mysterious in his eyes, and he felt more and more curious, but he couldn't ask. Wu Ming has done so much for the Wu family, he doesn't want to force Wu Ming. He knew that the reason why Wu Ming didn't say it was because the time had not yet come. All he could do was wait.
After talking to his grandfather, Wu Ming went to visit his cousin Wu Zheng again. Wu Zheng already has good intentions, so he doesn't need to stay here anymore.
"Cousin, I'm sorry, I still have some things to do myself, and I can't accompany you. Wu Ming apologized to his cousin.
Wu Zheng didn't speak, but Wu Ming could see that Wu Zheng was holding back his strength and wanted to do something for everyone to see.
Wu Ming didn't have the slightest doubt about Wu Zheng's addiction to getting rid of the Ascending Immortal Grass, it was just a matter of time.
"Cousin, I'm waiting for your great day to celebrate with a feast. After Wu Ming finished speaking, he left the cell and returned to his small courtyard.
He sat cross-legged on the bed and began to practice again.
Although according to Lao Dao, as long as he can pass the test, Lao Dao has a way for him to break through to the innate realm at a very fast speed. But how fast this is, Wu Ming doesn't know, maybe it's a few years. After all, a few years is much faster than those who have spent their entire lives without entering the innate world.
Therefore, before entering the innate state, Wu Ming also tried his best to improve his realm.
After Wu Ming sat down cross-legged, he quickly entered a state of cultivation.
The state of cultivation is a state of meditation. After all, the so-called cultivation is to capture the aura in the surrounding air and inhale it into the body. The aura in the air is already thin, even if you capture it with your heart, it is still difficult to capture, and if your mind can't be calm, then you don't want to capture it.
Now that Wu Ming has been tested twice, his mind has become much stronger, so as long as he wants to, he can instantly enter the state of meditation of cultivation.
Wu Ming began to capture the aura in the air, and now his mind is strong, and the speed of capturing the aura has been greatly accelerated, and it didn't take long for him to capture the first aura.
Wu Ming opened his mouth and inhaled the aura into his body.
Immediately, Wu Ming frowned.
This aura was much thinner than the aura he had absorbed a few months ago. What's going on?
Wu Ming captured a few more streams of aura, and the result was the same as the aura he captured for the first time, which was very thin.
A flash of inspiration flashed in Wu Ming's mind, and he remembered what Miao Cheng Immortal Gu had said to him. When Miaocheng Immortal Gu left the Longmen Immortal Academy, she went to work with Liu Yuan, and what they did was to go to the Spirit Gathering Array built by a big man to absorb the spiritual energy and cultivate.
Could it be that it was because the Spirit Gathering Array had sucked all the spiritual energy away, so the spiritual energy in the air had become so thin?
Wu Ming couldn't help but want to go to the place where the Spirit Gathering Array was.
Aura, a very mysterious thing in heaven and earth, it is difficult to capture it with heart, who has such a great ability to build a formation and suck all the aura?
Wu Ming was curious.
However, immediately, Wu Ming suppressed the curiosity in his heart.
Being called a big man by an innate person, the person who created the Spirit Gathering Array must be extraordinary, and he doesn't want to make a fuss now.
He suppressed his curiosity and continued to cultivate. Although the aura in the air is much thinner, but now that his mind is strong, the speed of capturing the aura is fast, which also makes up for the lack of thin aura, and his cultivation speed is not slower than before, but faster.
......
While Wu Ming was practicing, a fat man appeared at the door of Wu's mansion.
"Is Old Lady Wu here? I'm Liu Quan, the housekeeper of the Liu family, and I'm here to visit the old man!" the fat man said to the guard at the door with a smile.
"Liu Quan, you still dare to come!" the guards didn't say anything to Liu Quan. Recently, the Liu family has smashed a lot of Wu family shops, and most of the people of the Wu family have no good impression of the Liu family.
"Little brother, please excuse me, I made a special trip to apologize to Mrs. Wu...... And this little meaning, buy a few brothers a drink to eat. Liu Fatzi took out a few silver tickets from his arms and stuffed them into the hands of one of the guards.
"Forget it!" The guard pushed away the hand of Liu Fatzi who handed over the silver ticket, and said righteously: "We people from the Wu Mansion are not something that money can buy. Don't worry, we will help you through, but this time, I hope your Liu family will not be double-faced, just after making amends, you will hack our Wu family behind your back!"
After the guard finished speaking, he said hello to a few guards next to him and walked inside.
In the face of the guard's ridicule, Liu Fatzi didn't dare to have the slightest anger, but wanted to smile with his face.
Last time, he came to the Wu family to apologize, but not long after, the Liu family provoked the Wu family again, and the Liu family was at the expense of the Liu family. Now that he has a request for others, even if the Liu family is in charge, he doesn't dare to say anything, let alone the Liu family.
After a while, the guard came back and said to Liu Fatzi, "Come on, follow me." Remember, be careful to talk inside, although our grandfather is kind-hearted, but what you did this time is too inauthentic, our grandfather is probably angry, you must not provoke him!"
"Yes, yes, thank you for the mention. Liu Fatzi bent down and followed behind the guard.
......
After about half an hour, Liu Fatzi came out.
Judging by the smile on his face, he should have done a good job this time.
"Brothers, thank you. Liu Fatzi clenched his fists at a few guards at the door, "If you have time, come to my Liu's restaurant, report my name to Liu Quan, and give you all free orders." After saying that, he walked away with a shy stomach.
A few of the guards muttered in a low voice, "Who is rare for a meal of wine, when we can't afford to eat?"
A few guards, and not much money to spare. It's okay for them to go to the restaurant once in a while to eat, but they can't afford to go often. But at this time, they all forgot this fact, and they looked down on Liu Quan's "please eat" with a lot of deity.
......
Liu Quan left, leaving behind a lot of silver tickets, in addition to making up for the loss of the Wu family's smashed shop this time, it was quite a plus.
In addition, Liu Quan also promised that this kind of thing would never happen again in the future, otherwise the entire Liu family would not have to die!
That's a lot of weight. Although even if the Liu family does such things again, it may not necessarily be a bad death. But at least, being able to issue such a curse shows that the Liu family is still a little sincere.
Old lady Wu has always been soft-hearted. This time he was provoked by the Liu family, he just wanted to get through the crisis, and he didn't want to retaliate. In addition, Liu Quan was kind and willing to please, and he patted his chest to assure, so Mrs. Wu accepted the silver ticket. This matter is over.
Therefore, when Liu Quan went out, he would be so happy.
He didn't expect that the Wu family would let go of the Liu family so easily.
......
Not long after Liu Quan left, another person arrived at the gate of Wu's mansion.
"Little brother, I am Zheng Hong, the head of the Zheng family, and I have come to visit Mrs. Wu, so please excuse me. ”
"Wait a minute. "Although the people of the Zheng family also made small moves against the Wu family, however, that incident did not make much waves, so the attitude of several guards towards the people of the Zheng family was also different from that towards the people of the Liu family.
......
"Little brother, I am the head of the Qian family, Qian Dayou, I specially came to visit Mrs. Wu, please let me know. ”
......
"Little brother, I am Lu Yuan, the head of the Lu family, and I have come to visit Mrs. Wu, so please let me know. ”
......
On this day, a few guards at the gate saw a lot of big people in Qingshui City. They do it over and over again, but they never get tired of it.
From the visits of these big people, they also felt something.
The Wu and Liu families in Qingshui City are dominant, and there are also some small families that do not have ninth-level martial artists. On weekdays, these small families only dare to look at the Wu and Liu families from a distance, after all, getting close to one family is equivalent to offending the other.
And now, these small families have visited one after another, which can only mean one thing: the Liu family was completely suppressed by the Wu family this time, and these small families saw the situation, so they naturally hurried to express their hearts.
Why did the Wu family suppress the Liu family? These guards were puzzled. What happened last night has reached the ears of several small families, but these guards don't know yet.
However, they didn't wonder for long. Later that day, it was spread all over Qingshui City: the two black-clothed men wanted to protect the Wu family and visit the Liu Mansion at night, not only teaching Liu Hai, the head of the Liu family, a hard lesson, but even teaching the immortals in the Pingbu Gate a lesson.
"I see. Several guards were talking as they imagined the scene of the two men in black teaching Bangs and the people who walked in Pingpai, with envious expressions on their faces.
......
"Little brother, I am Song Sixian, the city lord of Qingshui City, and I have come to visit Old Lady Wu, so I will take care of the trouble. An old man in Tsing Yi came to the gate of Wu's mansion and said to a guard at the door.
"Lord of the City?" several of the guards were startled. In their cognition, although the Wu Mansion is powerful, it is under the rule of the city lord after all, but at this time, even the city lord came to pay a visit.
The city lord, that represents the Pingbu Gate, and now even the city lord has come to visit the old lady Wu, could it be that from now on, the Wu family is the heaven of Qingshui City?
They also feel honored. But at the same time, there was also a faint worry: I heard that the two men in black not only taught the people of the Liu family a lesson, but also taught a few immortals in Pingbumen.
Is the lord of the castle here looking for trouble?
Not like that. If you're looking for trouble, how can you come alone?
"Lord of the Castle, please come here. "After a guard went inside to report, he came back and took Song Sixian inside.
The remaining guards began to talk.
"Those two black-clothed people are not from my Wu family, even if Pingbumen wants to find trouble, they can't find our Wu family. ”
"Nonsense, after all, this matter is for my Wu family, and the two black-clothed people can't be found in Pingbumen, so they naturally want to hit our Wu family with the board. ”
"How can this be? The immortals can't be unreasonable. ”
"What, you still want to reason with the immortals?"
......
In Liu's house, Liu Haizheng and his son Liu Dashan sat opposite each other in the study. Liu Xiaoxi rushed back to Pingbu Gate overnight last night, and didn't leave a word before leaving.
"Father, are we going to forget it?" Liu Dashan was quite angry.
"Don't forget it, what do you want?" said bangs unhappily. After yesterday's torture, his spirit was very bad. Moreover, the traces of the flames were still there, his hair and eyebrows were burned, and his face was also charred and swollen, and he looked very embarrassed, and he didn't dare to go out.
"Just now, the spies came to report that today, almost all the families in Qingshui City have gone to visit the Wu family, even the city lord of Qingshui City. In the future, this Qingshui City will become the world of their Wu family. Hey, hey!"
"Our Liu family also sent someone to go!" Liu Hai spoke a little loudly, and he touched the wound on his face, and he couldn't help but gasp in pain, "Dashan, don't mention this matter in the future." Go down. ”
"Yes, father. Although Liu Dashan was not convinced, he did not dare to disobey his father's words.
Liu Dashan went out, and only Liu Hai was left in the room. A strange smile suddenly appeared on his face.
"Count? Of course you can't just forget it! However, now this matter is no longer between my Liu family and the Wu family, but the fighting method between the two people who protect the Wu family and the Pingbu Gate, although these two black-clothed people are powerful, but to fight with the Pingbu Gate, I'm afraid it is still not enough. Now, all I can do is wait, wait for the Pingbu goalkeeper to clean up the two men in black, and then our Liu family can make a move. ”
......
It's getting late.
Old Lady Wu received a lot of people today, and she also felt a little tired, and was about to rest, but suddenly heard a report outside the door: "Master, Ding Xuan, the head of the Ding family, is visiting, do you want to bring him in?"
"Ding Xuan?" Wu Qing didn't have much impression of Ding Xuan, and after thinking about it for a while, he remembered: This Ding Xuan was originally an instructor of the Longmen Immortal Academy, but a seventh-level martial artist. Later, I don't know what happened, the realm has not improved, but the combat power has reached the combat power of an eighth-level martial artist. So Ding Xuan came out of the Longmen Immortal Courtyard and formed a family by himself.
Because Ding Xuan took a lot of care of Wu Ming when he was in the Immortal Courtyard, and also recommended Wu Ming to accept the assessment of Pingbumen when he came to Pingbumen, so when Ding Xuan founded the family, the Wu family also helped a lot.
However, since then, Ding Xuan has never come to visit Wu's house again, so Wu Qing's impression of him has gradually faded.
Today, Ding Xuan saw that the Wu family had suppressed the Liu family, and came to visit again. Wu Qing didn't have a very good impression of him, and felt that the other party was a snob.
Snobbish people are nothing, and how many ordinary people are not snobbish? Wu Qing still asked people to invite Ding Xuan over.
After some greetings, Ding Xuan explained his intentions. The Liu family has been suppressed by the Wu family, and from then on, Qingshui City is the largest of the Wu family. Ding Xuan said that he didn't have much ambition, but he just wanted to be the third largest family after the Wu and Liu families, and hoped that the Wu family could help him.
Then, he expressed his heartfelt feelings, saying that in the future, only the Wu family would be the first to look forward.
Wu Qing was a little unhappy. Ding Xuan helped Wu Ming, but when Ding Xuan formed a family before, the Wu family also helped each other a lot, and the two parties no longer owed each other.
If Ding Xuan often came to visit after that, and the two families had a good relationship, Wu Qing might still consider it. However, since then, Ding Xuan has never come again, obviously afraid that the Liu family will trouble him. Such a snobbish person, the Wu family would not trouble him, but they didn't want to help him.
At the moment, Wu Qing talked about him left and right.
Ding Xuan was a smart man, he understood what Wu Qing meant, and he didn't say much, but was polite again, and left.
......
Wu Ming was immersed in his own cultivation and did not know much about the outside world.
Suddenly, his mind moved and he thought of something.
Last night, he made the three people in Pingbumen deflated, although he didn't treat the other party well, but will the other party hold a grudge and come to retaliate.
Immortals, it shouldn't be such a small belly, Wu Ming thought. However, he was still a little worried. In case, the immortal of this Pingbu Gate is a small-bellied chicken intestine.
At the moment, I told my worries to the old way in my head.
"Is it useful to worry?" said the old way.
"It didn't work. ”
"It's useless, so you're still worried?"
"But ......" Wu Ming was still worried.
"There is nothing to do! Don't think about useless things! The road of cultivation is full of difficulties, and people live for a lifetime, and the same is true! No one knows what will happen tomorrow, and the only thing we can do is to be the best version of ourselves!"
"But...... I want to ask, if the Jindan masters of the Pingbu Gate arrive, can you deal with them?" Wu Ming still wanted Lao Dao to give him a reassurance.
"I haven't seen them again, how do I know?"
Lao Dao said this, Wu Ming didn't want to ask again, and after thinking about it for a while, he didn't come up with any good ideas, so he could only suppress the worries in his heart and re-enter the cultivation state.
As the old Tao says, is it useful to worry about it? Since it is useless, then worrying is doing useless work, and it is better to use the time spent worrying about to cultivate.
The reason is very simple, but it is difficult to do, that is, Wu Ming is now strong, so he can suppress that worry.
