Chapter 396: The Xuanyuan Family
Li Qianmo floated in the air, looked at the curved Canglong horn in his hand, and said to himself with regret: "I didn't expect that my blowing of the Canglong horn would have such great lethality, and I would have known that I wouldn't have used it." ”
As soon as he said this, he suddenly remembered that he still had a sound killing magic weapon, and immediately took out a small drum from the cornucopia, which turned out to be a Kui Niu drum.
This Kui Niu Drum was entrusted to him by Xuanyuan Yin before his death, so that he could return it to the Xuanyuan family when he had the opportunity, and the implication was that if he wanted to keep it for himself, he could do it.
But Li Qianmo is not that kind of person, he went to another universe by mistake before, and he never had the opportunity to go to the Xuanyuan Clan, which has only dragged on for more than three hundred years, and now that he has returned, he feels that it is time to return Kui Niu Drum.
Thinking of the Xuanyuan family, Li Qianmo was a little curious, the Xuanyuan family has always been grateful to him, but when the Five Elements Sect besieged Huashan, none of them came to support, he didn't care about this matter, he just faintly felt a little strange, it didn't feel logical, it just happened that he was going to return the Kui Niu Drum now, and by the way, see if something happened to the Xuanyuan family.
The Xuanyuan family was originally in Dongsheng Shenzhou, but since Xuanyuan Zhenjun sat down, the strength of the family has become weaker and weaker, and many sects have come to provoke, which has made the originally down-and-out family even more turbulent.
The eighth generation of the head of the family knew that if the family continued like this, the family would surely perish, so he made a decision to move the entire Xuanyuan family to the desolate Beiju Luzhou, where he would recuperate.
In this way, no one really came to trouble the Xuanyuan family anymore, but in this desolate Beiju Luzhou, the aura is thin, and it is not suitable for cultivation at all, and the Xuanyuan family has been half-dead, and occasionally one or two real masters will appear for a while, but it is only a flash in the pan.
In this generation, the Xuanyuan family is unprecedentedly prosperous, and two real masters have appeared at once, one is naturally the head of the family, Xuanyuan Yin, but unfortunately he has passed away, and the other is his brother Xuanyuan Sheng.
Although Li Qianmo has been to the Arctic Ice Field, he has never been to Beiju Luzhou, this is the first time he has come to this land, so he has been to all the five continents of Sumeru.
As soon as you enter the Beiju Luzhou area, you will find that the scenery has changed greatly, whether it is the mountains or grasslands, they are very desolate, and there is little greenery, which is completely different from the mountains and rivers of Dongsheng Shenzhou.
Beiju Luzhou is very large, sparsely populated, and there are naturally few cultivators, but it is not nothing, Li Qianmo inquired about a few small sects of cultivation along the way, and finally found the location of the Xuanyuan clan, and at the same time he also inquired about the major events that have happened in the Xuanyuan clan in the past few hundred years.
Two days later, Li Qianmo came to a loess plateau, the surrounding mountains are undulating, looking at the yellow and yellow patches, it is good to occasionally see a few green plants, in this loess mountains, there is a large number of houses, which are ten miles in size, guarded by a large array, do not need to think about it, this is the territory of the Xuanyuan family.
Li Qianmo came to the edge of the Xuanyuan family's big array, and bowed his hand and said loudly: "Li Qianmo came to visit the Xuanyuan family master, please see him!"
As soon as the words fell, I heard someone reply: "I don't know if Master Li is coming, I miss the distance, please Haihan!" The voice was peaceful, not like the old man's voice, it seems that he is a young person, and he thinks he is the new head of the Xuanyuan family.
After a while, the Xuanyuan family's big array suddenly opened, welcoming out more than 20 people, some old and young, the current one is not very old, middle-aged, wearing a green coat and black robe, with a high bun on his head, after seeing Li Qianmo, he bowed to Li Qianmo with a smile on his face, and said: "Master Li, I really didn't expect you to come, forgive your sins." ”
Li Qianmo returned the salute and said indifferently: "You're polite, are you the current head of the Xuanyuan family?"
"It's down there. The middle-aged man smiled and nodded.
"What do you call the head of the family?" asked Li Qianmo.
The middle-aged man smiled and said, "In Xia Xuanyuan Hao, the late old master is my uncle. ”
"Oh. Li Qianmo nodded and said, "I came here to talk about something, I don't know if I can go in and talk." ”
"Ah!" Xuanyuan Hao clapped his hands when he heard this, and smiled embarrassedly, "Of course you can, of course you can, it's me who is negligent, please come in!"
Li Qianmo followed them into the Xuanyuan family's big array, and after entering, he found that the scenery inside the Xuanyuan family's residence was simply one day and one place compared to the outside. The mountains and rivers are green, the birds are singing and the flowers are fragrant, although it is not as beautiful as the scenery of Xiaoyao Valley, but it also has a unique flavor.
Xuanyuan Hao brought Li Qianmo to the Shangde Treasure Hall with a cadre, and the two sides sat down separately, and everyone looked at the legendary Li Qianmo very curiously, and guessed the purpose of his visit this time.
Before Xuanyuan Hao could speak, the oldest white-haired old man asked, "Master Li, I don't know what you are doing this visit?"
"Who is this?" Li Qianmo looked at the old man with a puzzled face.
Xuanyuan Hao explained with a smile: "This is the father of the family, and he is also the great elder of our Xuanyuan family. ”
"Oh-" Li Qianmo nodded and said, "Actually, I came this time to return one thing." ”
"Oh, what is it?" asked Xuanyuan Hao, raising his eyebrows.
Li Qianmo slowly stretched out his right hand and recited the mantra lightly, and a small and delicate drum immediately appeared above his palm, dripping and spinning.
Seeing this, everyone in the Xuanyuan family exclaimed: "It's Kui Niu Drum!"
Li Qianmo nodded with a faint smile: "It's Kui Niu Drum, I made a special trip to return it to your Xuanyuan family this time." ”
"This ...... This is so grateful!" Xuanyuan Hao was very excited when he heard this, and couldn't help asking, "Master Li, how did this Kui Niu Drum end up in your hand?" After he finished speaking, he immediately realized that something was wrong, and hurriedly explained, "Don't get me wrong, I didn't mean that you stole the Kui Niu Drum, I was just curious." ”
Li Qianmo chuckled and said, "Naturally, I didn't steal it, it was entrusted to me by the head of the Xuanyuan Yin family before he died." ”
"I see, that's really thanks to Master Li for keeping the Kui Niu Drum for us. Xuanyuan Hao was very happy when he heard this, and he stretched out his hand to pick up the cow drum.
Who knew that Li Qianmo retracted his hand back, unwilling to give it to him, Xuanyuan Hao was stunned for a moment, looked at Li Qianmo in amazement, and said, "Master Li, what are you doing?"
Li Qianmo shook his head solemnly and said, "I'm sorry, Kui Niu Drum can't give it to you." ”
"What!" Xuanyuan Hao was dumbfounded when he heard this, and the others present were also surprised, I don't know what kind of medicine is sold in this Li Qianmo's gourd, Xuanyuan Sheng on the side listened to Li Qianmo's words, and immediately became angry, got up and shouted: "Li Qianmo, what do you mean by this, you just said that you want to return the Kui Niu Drum to us, and now you don't give it, do you play with us!"
"Of course not. Li Qianmo said lightly, "I do want to return the Kui Niu Drum to you, but it must be handed over to the designated person." ”
"The designated person?" Xuanyuan Sheng frowned when he heard this, "Who do you mean?"
Li Qianmo glanced at the crowd and asked lightly, "Which one is Xuanyuan Zheng?"
As soon as these words came out, everyone was shocked, and they all focused their eyes on one place, only to see a thin young man sitting there, cultivating as the seventh small entrance of the triple path of the Tao, in the Xuanyuan family, this is a good cultivation.
Li Qianmo got up and walked up to him, smiled and asked, "You are Xuanyuan Zheng?"
The young man stood up and saluted respectfully: "If you go back to Master Li, it is Xuanyuan Zheng below." ”
"You don't have to be so formal. Li Qianmo stopped him from saluting, handed him the Kui Niu Drum, and said, "The head of the Xuanyuan Yin family instructed me on his deathbed, asking me to wait for this Kui Niu Drum to come to the Xuanyuan family and hand it over to you personally, and at the same time pass on his dictation to let you take over the position of the 362nd generation head of the Xuanyuan family." ”
As soon as these words came out, the audience was shocked, and then there was an uproar, and everyone was talking about it, they really didn't expect Xuanyuan Yin to pass on such an edict, and now the matter will be troublesome.
Xuanyuan was holding the Kui Niu Drum, stunned in place, and only after a while did he come to his senses, and hurriedly shook his head and said, "No, it is absolutely impossible to take over as the head of the family." ”
Li Qianmo twisted his eyebrows when he heard this, snatched the Kui Niu Drum, and said coldly: "If you don't be the head of the family, then don't want this Kui Niu Drum." ”
Everyone was shocked again, they didn't expect this Li Qianmo to be so domineering, if he insisted on making Xuanyuan the head of the family, it would definitely turn the Xuanyuan clan upside down.
Xuanyuan was embarrassed: "Master Li, you are the great benefactor of our Xuanyuan family, every time my uncle mentioned you before his death, he was commensurate with your kindness, and he was grateful to you, I beg you to be merciful this time, don't embarrass me." ”
"How can this be embarrassing. Li Qianmo raised his head and said loudly, "I'm just carrying out the last order of the head of the Xuanyuan Yin family, in the family, naturally the ancestors are important, and the orders of the ancestors cannot be violated, if you don't carry it out, it will be unfilial!"
"Ridiculous!" Xuanyuan Sheng suddenly sneered when he heard this, "You said that this is my eldest brother's will, what evidence do you have!"
"I'm the evidence!" Li Qianmo glared and shouted, "I, Li Qianmo, have always been the same in the north and south, even if you want to deceive people, do you think you are qualified enough to let me deceive!"
Xuanyuan Sheng was shocked by Li Qianmo's momentum, sat down on the chair, was speechless, and turned his head to look at his son Xuanyuan Hao.
Xuanyuan Hao seemed to understand what he meant, got up and saluted Li Qianmo, and said with a smile: "Okay, Master Li, since you insist on doing this before you are willing to return the Kui Niu Drum, then do what you want, I will immediately abdicate and make way for Xian, and let Xuanyuan Zheng's cousin be the head of the family." ”
"Okay!" Li Qianmo smiled loudly and said, "Then I will stay here for a while until the succession ceremony is completed." ”
"What!" Xuanyuan Hao changed color when he heard this, slapped the tea case beside him, glared and shouted angrily, "Li Qianmo, don't go too far!"
Li Qianmo laughed jokingly: "The words of the head of the Xuanyuan family make me not understand, where am I going too far, please make it clear." ”
"You ......" Xuanyuan Hao was speechless when he heard this, he was going to verbally promise to pass on the throne, and first deceive Kui Niu Drum before talking, but Li Qianmo saw through his plan at a glance, and then said that he would not leave until the succession ceremony, so as not to let him succeed.
At this moment, there was silence in the Shangdebao Palace, no one made a sound, and the atmosphere was like a ball full of gas, which could explode at any time.
Looking at the Kui Niu Drum in Li Qianmo's hand, Xuanyuan Hao's facial muscles trembled, his fists clenched and expanded, after a long time, he finally breathed a sigh of relief, tried his best to suppress his emotions, and said slowly: "Master Li, I thought about it carefully, you have a great favor with our Xuanyuan family, we have never had time to repay, this Kui Niu Drum is a sacred object of our family, in order to show our gratitude to you, I will give you this Kui Niu Drum." ”
Everyone present exclaimed when they heard this, but they didn't expect that in order to keep his position as the head of the family, Xuanyuan Hao could even give away the family's holy relics, which made the Xuanyuan people present angry, and immediately some people denounced it, and the scene was suddenly chaotic.
Looking at the noisy Xuanyuan people, Li Qianmo suddenly laughed, and everyone laughed at him, and suddenly quieted down and looked at him in astonishment.
After Li Qianmo laughed, he turned his head to face Xuanyuan Hao, gave a thumbs up and praised: "The head of the Xuanyuan Hao family is really not simple, he has such a strong man's determination to break his wrist, Li admires it!"
"Where, where. Xuanyuan Haopi smiled and said, "Compared with Engong, this little bit of ability is not worth mentioning, and this Kui Niu Drum still hopes that Engong will laugh." ”
Li Qianmo shook his head and said proudly: "I can't ask for the Kui Niu Drum, I said, I am here to fulfill the last order of the head of the Xuanyuan Yin family this time, the Kui Niu Drum must be returned, and Xuanyuan Zheng must be the head of the family, these two things are indispensable!"
As soon as these words came out, everyone was stunned, and looked at Li Qianmo in shock, they knew that something big might happen next.
