Chapter 167: The Root Cause (3 more)
Lu Chen, who was meditating and breathing, was gradually getting better, and suddenly a weak voice broke the quiet atmosphere.
Lu Chen opened and closed his eyes slightly, and looked in the direction where the voice came from, only to see that Liu Shangyuan, who had been asleep all afternoon, had woken up faintly. At this time, he was struggling to sit up from the bed, clutching his chest in great pain, and looking at the uninvited guests in the room with a pale face.
"Your body is still very weak, and you don't want to die, so lie down immediately. ”
Lu Chen's voice warned in a low voice, and there was an irresistible majesty in his words.
Liu Shangyuan was originally a mortal, how could he have ever seen a spot of light appear on the surface of a human body, which is similar to the rumored immortals. He was already at a loss for what to do by Lu Chen in the room, and when he heard such a slightly serious voice, he subconsciously lay back.
Liu Shangyuan, who was leaning sideways, pondered for a moment, and coughed lightly: "Yes, it was you who saved me?"
"Hey, it's someone who has read a book, and he just understands things. Lu Chen secretly praised and said indifferently: "That's right." You almost died. ”
The scholars seem to be very wooden and honest, Liu Shangyuan heard this, so he wanted to sit up and salute, Lu Chen immediately stopped when he saw this: "Lie back, you are not allowed to get up without my order." ”
"Well, Engong, Xiaosheng thanked Engong for saving his life. Liu Shangyuan, who was half-leaning on the edge of the bed, really couldn't get up, so he could only thank him a little sincerely, and then lay back down.
After thinking about it for a while, Liu Shangyuan was quite surprised: the kid in front of him didn't look very old, and he could make a halo on the surface of his body, which was amazing. After thinking for a while, he asked, "Engong is an immortal?"
Since Liu Shangyuan had woken up, Lu Chen didn't have the heart to heal his injuries again, so he nodded, but instead of admitting it positively, he asked Liu Shangyuan: "How did you get injured?"
Asked the reason, Liu Shangyuan smiled bitterly: "Engong doesn't know, it is the head snake of this county who opened the mountain to help Ma Yi, and he fell in love with my family's old house and property, and always looked for an opportunity to kill me." Alas, the people of Liu Mansion are not prosperous, as long as I die, my grandfather and grandmother will not live long, and then he can collude with the dog official and take away my land. Liu...... Alas, Liu is a scholar, and he has no strength but to find theories, who would have thought that he would be so angry that he vomited blood......" Liu Shangyuan said slowly, extremely miserable.
Lu Chen was not affected by him at all, and saw him smile coldly and said, "Are you so easy to deceive me?"
"Why did the immortal say this?" Liu Shangyuan was taken aback.
Lu Chen sneered, took out the Blood Bodhi, threw it on the bed, and said in a deep voice: "This is a thing used by cultivators, called Blood Bodhi, your Liu family is an ordinary man, but there are such treasures, how do you explain it." ”
"This ......" Looking at the blood Bodhi with the blood-colored brilliance turning, Liu Shangyuan was silent for a while.
Observing the words, Lu Chen found that Liu Shangyuan was not surprised when he saw Blood Bodhi, obviously he knew much more about this object than the maid Fluttershy.
The candle flame lit by the bean was beating strangely, and Liu Shangyuan's heart was beating faster and faster. Seeing this, Lu Chen's eyes turned cold, and he said in a low voice: "Since I can recognize the Blood Bodhi, I will naturally find the magic circle in Liu's Mansion, let's say, what's going on?"
Liu Shangyuan's inner defense line completely collapsed, laughed miserably, and said truthfully: "Alas~, in fact, my Liu family's ancestors are also immortals. ”
"Oh?" Lu Chen's eyes lit up, and he immediately thought of the characters on the portrait in the front hall, and he already understood: "That's right." ”
Without interrupting Liu Shangyuan, the latter paused and said: "The ancestor cultivated to a high level, but the descendants of my Liu family did not have this blessing, so all along, the ancestors migrated here, and used the supreme mana to lay a foundation for the descendants of the Liu family, which can make us worry about food and clothing." Later, the ancestor disappeared, and the Liu family has always come over like this and become mortals, but the old house of the Liu family is the brainchild of the ancestors, and our Liu family has settled here for several generations and dare not leave. It is precisely because the Liu family still has the treasures left by their ancestors in the Liu Mansion. ”
This explanation makes some sense. Lu Chen thought to himself and asked, "What's going on with the Kaishan Gang?"
Liu Shangyuan said again: "The Kaishan Gang, hmph, it's just a group of robbers, they covet the Liu family's property, but the Liu family has a large array to protect the house, and they can't break in at all." But then I heard that they colluded with the two immortal temples on the mountain, the two immortal temples are the cultivators here, and the two masters in the temple are extremely powerful. That's why I've been secretly assassinating my Liu family recently. Alas~ If it weren't for my Liu family's house protection array, I'm afraid the lives of the hundreds of people in the Liu family would have been lost......"
Liu Shangyuan stated that Lu Chen had been locking with his divine sense, and when he learned that he was not lying, his expression eased.
Thinking about Liu Shangyuan's words, it is reasonable, there is a rule in the cultivation realm: all cultivators or sects can fight in the cultivation realm, but it is never allowed to use mana to oppress mortals, this regulation is supervised by all sects in the Dongzhou cultivation realm. Those who disobey will be pursued by the rest of the sects. This is also the reason why the two immortals dare not act rashly.
However, there are always loopholes to exploit. If the Ming can't come, he will use the crooked path of the evil sect and take the route of mortals to achieve his goal, I am afraid that the Kaishan Gang is just a vassal of the two immortal views. The two should each take what they need: open the mountain to help seek wealth, and the two immortals naturally covet the big array of protecting the house.
"Yes. Lu Chen heard the end, and nodded with satisfaction, the old man of Qijing has been forcing Lu Chen to ask about Blood Bodhi in Qijing space. But Lu Chen knew that he couldn't be in a hurry about this matter, otherwise he would ask directly, and the hearts of people he had won so hard here would be gone. Besides, I don't know what strength the two immortals have and what masters they have. I need to heal my wounds, and I can't show my feet yet.
Lu Chen didn't ask, just said, "Understood, Liu Shangyuan." ”
"Yes, what does the immortal command. ”
Lu Chen said calmly: "I have already diagnosed and treated you, although the origin of your illness is due to qi depression, but the root cause is because of blood Bodhi, which is something used by (5) cultivators. You can't bear it, you don't need to use it later, just meditate and recuperate, and use ginseng and other substances to slowly tonify at intervals. Also, the fewer people who know, the better. As for the two immortal views, you don't have to worry, if someone dares to come, this immortal will naturally take action to clear them. Also, about the Liu Mansion Mansion Guard, you can tell me after you and the old lady and the old man have considered it. I can help you. Of course, if you don't want to, I don't have to force it, but disaster is a blessing, and you have to carry it all by yourself. After all, I can't stay here forever, and you know?"
Lu Chen's acting skills are clever, and he looks old-fashioned, which makes Liu Shangyuan stunned, and he is grateful to his father-in-law.
Lu Chen thought for a while, and said in his heart: Just by making a move, I'm afraid that Xingzang will be exposed soon, so it's best to ask for a helper. Well, that Meng Hao is not bad, if you practice some words, you should be able to use Dao talismans. ”
Thinking of this, Lu Chen said again: "You can tell the old man and the old lady about my identity, and the rest of the people don't need to be said." There is another person you call me tomorrow, and I have a lot of use. ”
Liu Shangyuan hurriedly nodded and said, "Shangxian just orders." ”
Lu Chen smiled slightly and said, "Meng Hao, this person is not bad, he is loyal enough to the Liu Mansion, I want to see him tomorrow." ”
