They returned home after separating from Ye Zhen, Cangshan is both a mountain name and a place name, Cangshan Town is named after Cangshan, although the town is not big, it has a history of two or three hundred years, it is an old town.
Because of its remote location, when the countries were in turmoil, Cangshan Town was not ravaged by the war, and it was a paradise.
The Cao family is very famous in the town, and after Cao You's great-grandfather Cao Kun moved to the town, the Cao family gradually gained a certain reputation in the town.
It is said that Cao Kun used to be a warrior in the rivers and lakes, with a family history, and a good martial arts, it is by relying on this ability, Cao Kun became the most famous hunter in Cangshan, because he has great ability and dares to enter the deep mountains, so the harvest of hunting is also very precious, and it can be sold at a good price, so the Cao family gradually prospered.
The family is rich, but Cao Kun is not the kind of person who is outside the staff when he has money, he is still a hunter, a simple housekeeper, and kind to others, he not only has a prestige but also a good name in Cangshan, and he is a rare good person.
Cao Kun has only one wife, not many children, three daughters and one man, his son Cao Xian is the grandfather of Cao You's brothers, the Cao family is a single lineage, and there are only two men in Cao You's generation, but when Cao You and Cao Gong were very young, their parents suddenly got sick and died one after another, and the Cao family was defeated all of a sudden.
With the help of relatives, Cao You and Cao Gong brothers grew up one after another, fortunately, when their parents died, Cao You was ten years old, and the family martial arts had a good foundation.
The Cao family has an ancestral house in the town, and Cao You and Cao Gong both like to live close to the mountains and forests, and they usually don't live there, but live in three huts at the foot of Cangshan Mountain, living a life similar to seclusion.
The two brothers are not married, and it is strange to say that since they became adults, there are really a lot of people who propose relatives to them and say matchmaking, but the two brothers just don't fancy a girl, according to their age, ordinary people have already crawled all over the ground with children.
This is the third day after separating from Ye Zhen, in the early morning, Cao You and Cao Gong were doing morning classes in the courtyard in front of the hut, of course, not reading, but practicing, first meditating and refining qi, and then practicing swordsmanship.
Cao You likes to use knives, and Cao Gong loves to use the huge mountain axe, the Cao family's wind-breaking knife method, wide opening and closing, fierce and fierce, Cao Gong is ingenious, and the knife method is turned into an axe method, which is also extremely good.
This is their daily compulsory homework, because the two of them have recently taken a piece of shaped He Shou Wu, so that the cultivation is a great advance, the true qi is strong, now the knife method, the axe method, the power is more amazing, the knife light and axe shadow is like lightning, the breath of the two is surging, it can affect a hundred zhang square, a huge courtyard is full of air swirling, light and shadow flickering, from time to time there is the sound of swords and axes striking each other, it is even more deafening, like thunder.
The two brothers fought with all their strength, because they were familiar with each other, and they were not afraid of accidental injury, so they fought more intensely, a long knife was like lightning, a giant axe was like thunder, all of them had the power of a thousand jun, strong and sharp, when the fight was fierce, the two of them roared at the same time, and the momentum was even higher, fortunately this place is far away from the villages and towns, otherwise it will definitely be terrifying, and the birds and beasts on the mountain are frightened enough, and it is a mess for a while.
The Cao brothers fought with knives and axes, but they didn't know when a figure would reach the sky above their heads, and the distance was only a few feet, the person was dressed in white, with a tall and thin figure, looking white and elegant, revealing a dusty atmosphere, the clothes fluttered in the wind, and the whole person was like a white cloud floating in the void.
The man in white stared at the competition of the Cao family brothers, his eyes were clear and deep, and there was a faint little essence flickering in the depths of his pupils, like a sword like electric light, a little flicker, it revealed an incomparable sharpness, but at this moment, there was a bit of joy in these eyes, although his expression was flat but also with a faint smile, it seemed that he admired the brothers very much.
He watched it for a long time, until the Cao family brothers ended the competition, Cao You, Cao Gong didn't find anyone above his head at all, after a fight, both of them were a little panting, but their spirits were better, and their momentum was not reduced, Cao Gong calmed down a little, and immediately said, "Big brother, what do you think?"
Cao You put away the long knife and said with a smile, "Yes, you have made great progress!"
Cao Gong said: "This is all thanks to the eldest brother." ”
Cao You shook his head and said, "I should thank Brother Ye." ”
Cao Gong said, "Yes, I should thank Brother Ye." ”
The man in white above heard their conversation, obviously a little strange, and muttered, "Brother Ye?"
The Cao family brothers didn't hear his voice, and Cao Gong continued, "Big brother, it's been three days, why hasn't Brother Ye come back yet?"
Cao Gong was also very worried, his brows furrowed slightly, but he said, "Brother Ye is very capable, there should be no accident, let's wait patiently." ”
Cao Gong nodded and said, "I'm just a little worried, after all, the environment of the Immortal Pit is sinister...... In case ......"
Cao You didn't have this thought, but he also believed in Ye Zhen's ability, so he said, "Brother Ye will be fine, it's better like this, let's wait for two more days, if Brother Ye hasn't come yet, we will go to the immortal pit to find him, what do you think?"
Cao Gong said, "That's okay, let's wait, I hope Brother Ye can come soon." ”
When the two were talking, the man in white listened quietly, and when they finished speaking, the man in white suddenly said, "Who are you talking about Brother Ye?"
The voice of the man in white was not high, but the sudden movement fell from the sky, which definitely surprised the Cao family brothers, and the two of them changed color together, and Cao Gong also shouted, "Who is talking!?"
And Cao You followed the sound and looked up, and saw the white cloud-like figure, his face changed again, and the look of horror was revealed, when did he see someone floating in the air when he was so big, and it was so relaxed and chic, it would be strange if he was not shocked!
Cao Gong also saw the man in white in the air, and shouted again, "You...... You...... Is it a human or a ghost?" his face was even uglier than his brother's, and his voice trembled unconsciously.
The man in white smiled slightly, and said in a harmonious voice, "How can there be ghosts in the blue sky and white sun! Of course I am a human." He smiled and his tone was very friendly, and as he spoke, he came to Cao You and Cao Gong.
The white clouds fell down, and the Cao family brothers didn't see how this person came down, although the other party didn't seem to have any malicious intentions, but when they encountered such a strange situation, they still made the necessary reaction, one stood with a horizontal knife, and the other held a giant axe, waiting for the battle, not daring to slack off in the slightest.
The man in white turned a blind eye to the long knife and giant axe in their hands, just looking at the two of them, smiling, like an elder looking at two naughty children, juniors.
Cao You, although Cao Gong didn't feel that the other party had any special breath and strong momentum, but just one falling from the sky was enough to make them cautious, although the brothers were holding weapons, but they had no confidence, seeing that the person had been looking at the two of them, they were even more uncomfortable, and finally Cao You mustered up his courage and said in a deep voice, "Who are you?
The man in white smiled and said, "You will know who I am later, as for why I came here, it is because you are here, I am here for you." ”
The Cao family brothers were not surprised, their faces changed again, and seeing their expressions like this, the man in white said, "You don't have to be frightened, I have no malicious intent." As he spoke, he kept looking at Cao You, Cao Gong, and suddenly sighed, "It's really like, it's so similar." ”
Cao You, Cao Gong listened to it, and he was stunned, what is too similar? What is this person's intention?
The man in white knew that they were puzzled, so he said, "Let me ask you, Cao Kunke, your great-grandfather?"
Cao You, Cao Gong was stunned again when he heard his great-grandfather's name, and then said in unison, "Exactly." Then Cao You came to his senses and asked, "How do you know my great-grandfather's name?"
The man in white sighed, "I naturally have his name, if it weren't for him, I wouldn't have come here." ”
The Cao brothers were even more shocked when they heard this, their great-grandfather had passed away for decades, and they had never seen each other at all, but now some people said that they actually had something to do with their great-grandfather, how could this not shock and puzzle them.
The man in white understood the mood of the Cao family brothers very well, so he said, "There are some things that you may find unbelievable and incredible when you hear them at the moment, but what I said next is true, there is not a word of falsehood, you listen well." ”
The Cao brothers glanced at each other, and then Cao You said, "Okay, please speak." ”
Seeing that they were quite calm, the man in white was quite pleased, so he said, "My surname is Shen, my name is Shen Mufeng, and Cao Kun, that is, your great-grandfather used to be the same family, and he is my senior brother." ”
The brothers of the Cao family were immediately moved when they heard this, and they couldn't help but exclaim, these words really made them unbelievable, their great-grandfather's fellow disciple! How could this be possible, this man who claimed to be Shen Mufeng, he was only about thirty years old when he looked at it horizontally and vertically, how could he be his great-grandfather's junior brother at such an age, and besides, they had never heard of what sect his great-grandfather had joined, this person was simply talking nonsense.
Cao You couldn't help but shout, "You ......" He was going to say that you farted, but when he thought of the appearance of this person, he couldn't help it, so he changed it to "You talk nonsense!"
Cao You was more steady, and when he heard his brother's disrespectful words, he shouted, "Shut up and listen to him." ”
Cao Gong hurriedly said, "Big brother, you also believe this, this person is a ......"
Hearing that he was still talking nonsense, Cao You said angrily, "Listen to me, you don't have to say a word!"
Cao Gong saw that the eldest brother's anger was revealed, so he didn't dare to continue, but said in his heart, "The eldest brother is really, whatever others say can be taken seriously." ”
Shen Mufeng, the man in white, looked at the two brothers with a smile, he didn't seem to care about Cao Gong's words, and when Cao You finished reprimanding his younger brother, he smiled and said, "My brother is my brother, I am more sensible than my younger brother, not bad." After that, he added, "My words sound a little unbelievable, but it's a pity that your great-grandfather, my senior brother Cao Kun, didn't tell his descendants some things because he kept his oath, otherwise I wouldn't have to bother to talk so much." ”
After he said it for a long time, the Cao family brothers still didn't quite understand, their faces were dazed, and Shen Mufeng smiled and said, "Long story short, I'm going to pick you up this time." ”
This time Cao You, Cao Gong understood, and exclaimed in unison, "Where are you going?"
Shen Mufeng's smile retracted, and he said slowly, "Go to a place where your great-grandfather wanted to go but couldn't." ”
Cao You, Cao Gong was inexplicable, Cao You arched his hand and said, "This ...... Senior, what you mean our brother doesn't quite understand, may I ask who you are?"
Shen Mufeng sighed slightly, "There are some things that I can't say too clearly at the moment, you will know it when you go to that place." ”
Cao You, Cao Gong is a brother, and when he heard this, he shook his head and said, "This is not good, we will not go with you." ”
Shen Mufeng's face remained unchanged, and he nodded slightly, "This matter is indeed a bit strange, and the suddenness of my arrival will naturally make you suspicious, but you are lucky, no matter what, I will not let Cao Kun's descendants miss this immortal fate." When Cao Kun was mentioned again, his eyes faintly revealed a trace of bitterness, and then his gaze suddenly flourished, and he who was originally approachable had a drastic change, and an indescribable powerful aura suddenly emanated from him, instantly enveloping the Cao family brothers, and before the two brothers could react, Shen Mufeng emitted a dazzling strong light, dazzling, blue and white, reflecting hundreds of zhang in all directions.
Within the strong light, there were several shouts from Cao You and Cao Gong, but there were only shouts, and soon they were silent.
As soon as the strong light was released, the brilliance suddenly condensed, turned into a blue and white beam, rose from the ground, went straight to the nine heavens, flew straight hundreds of zhang in an instant, disappeared in a flash, disappeared between the blue sky and white clouds, and Cao You, Cao Gong also disappeared with this flying light, and it was so strange that they were taken away by this person who claimed to be Shen Mufeng.
