Chapter 407: Give me a happy word
Zhao Shidong's words set off huge waves in the hearts of Liu Boen and others. (For the latest chapter reading, please visit)
As long as you can break through the innate Great Perfection, someone will naturally come to guide you......
What does this mean?
This means that the passage between the ancient martial arts realm and the cultivation realm is not blocked!
But why hasn't anyone in the ancient martial arts world successfully stepped into the cultivation world for so many years?
"The reason for this is actually very simple, since entering the era of the end of the law, the aura of heaven and earth has become thinner and thinner, and there is no corresponding exercise, even if you are a genius, at most you will reach the level of half-step foundation building. Zhao Sidong explained indifferently: "The so-called half-step foundation building refers to the cultivation level half a level higher than the innate Great Perfection, but because of the lack of follow-up exercises, it is impossible to truly build the foundation. Of course, in the eyes of the ancient martial artists, even a half-step foundation building is enough to be called a 'land immortal', although in fact this title is used to refer to the strong people in the cultivation world who have reached the stage of merging the path. ”
Hearing this explanation, Liu Boen's face became extremely complicated.
In the past 30 years, the Liu family in Wangchuan has produced two strong men who have built a foundation in half a step, but unfortunately, the first one has been trapped in this realm for decades, and finally died of depression, and the second one is desperate and finally dies.
The two half-steps to build the foundation, one is Liu Boen's father, and the other is Liu Boen's uncle.
When the two of them were still alive, the Wangchuan Liu family definitely belonged to the most powerful ancient martial arts family in Dongjiang Province, and it can be said that the words of the Liu family's people in Dongjiang Province were sometimes even more effective than government officials.
However, since they fell one after another, the life of the Liu family has gradually not been so good, if it weren't for the previous foundation, maybe they would have fallen to a worse state now.
The reason for this situation is not only the decline in deterrence brought about by the fall of the two half-step foundation builders, but also because the Liu family's exercises are slightly inferior, in the past thirty years, there have only been two innate Great Perfections, and the innate seven-fold to nine-fold martial artists are only worthy of ten.
As for the martial artists below the congenital sevenfold, although they can be regarded as the backbone, they are not the decisive force after all, so the overall strength of the Liu family has decreased significantly, which is an indisputable fact.
Liu Boen clearly remembered that before his father and uncle passed away, they had sighed unwillingly: "If my Liu family's exercises can be completed, why would my generation be so embarrassed!"
To put it bluntly, this is because the exercises practiced by the Liu family are incomplete, and the exercises before the foundation building period are well preserved, but from the beginning of the foundation building period, the exercises have been broken, so his father and uncle can only stop at half a step in building the foundation throughout their lives.
In fact, these ancient martial arts families in Huaxia now, dating back to their ancestors, were actually once members of the cultivation world, but for one reason or another, they gradually formed a much lower-level ancient martial arts world outside the cultivation world - of course, this was not called the ancient martial arts world hundreds of years or thousands of years ago, but called the martial arts world, and the ancient martial arts family was still called the martial arts family at that time.
"Alas, it's a pity that the ancestor of my Liu family died more than a thousand years ago because of the fight against foreign invasions, and most of the elites in the clan were lost, and even the exercises were lost, and in the end, only the remnants of the acquired realm and the innate realm remained......" Liu Boen sighed deeply, feeling helpless about what happened to his family.
But when his eyes fell on Liu Xiaohui, his heart couldn't help but move.
Since it can be related to immortal cultivators, does this mean that they can get some benefits back through Liu Xiaohui? You must know that immortal cultivators and ancient martial artists are two levels of creatures, and if the former takes something out of his hand, it may be a treasure in the eyes of the latter.
So he coughed twice deliberately, and asked without words: "Xiaohui, why didn't your boyfriend come this time?"
Liu Xiaohui was slightly stunned, but she still remembered that when the people of the Liu family mentioned this matter in the past, they always called her sweetheart 'that kid', why did she change her personality today?
However, she was also worthy of the word 'Hui' in her name, but she was slightly stunned, and then figured out the trick here.
Although she is a little angry with her uncle, she also knows that as the head of the family, there are too many things to consider, so this is also a very normal thing, and there is nothing to be angry about.
So she replied lightly: "Because he got a great opportunity and is in retreat and cultivating, he doesn't have time to accompany me." ”
Hearing this, Liu Boen's temples jumped twice involuntarily.
Got a big chance?
What kind of chance is considered a big chance? Is it ......
At the moment when his heartbeat was accelerating, Liu Xiaohui had already given the answer: "He inadvertently took a strange thing today, and as a result, he had to retreat and cultivate...... Call...... Oh yes, it's called Jindan Zhenren. ”
Liu Boen's body shook suddenly, he had heard of the term Jindan Zhenren!
"I didn't expect it, I really didn't expect that there would be a Jindan real person in this era......"
Seeing the excitement and yearning on Liu Boen's face, Zhao Sidong smiled at Liu Xiaohui secretly.
"Uncle, let's tell you the truth, this time I came back firstly to dismiss the relationship with the Ouyang family, and secondly, for this!"
Liu Xiaohui raised her wrist lightly and pointed at Zhao Sidong, "He and my boyfriend are very good friends, and now they can be regarded as the same family, in short, this time I look back at Sichuan, in fact, it is more to bring an opportunity to the Liu family!"
"Opportunity?" Liu Boen took a deep breath, his body tensed slightly and leaned forward, "Xiaohui, what do you mean......"
Liu Xiaohui, who was still a little nervous, was completely relaxed at this moment, and only heard her say calmly: "Uncle, maybe you have already guessed something, now I will explain what I said, as long as I can return the Ouyang family's proposal, everything will be fine...... I think you already have some idea of what to do then, right?"
Liu Boen was excited in his heart, this is not just a number in his heart, his happy expression was overflowing, and he said again and again: "Xiaohui, don't worry, I will deal with your engagement with Ouyang Hui of the Ouyang family in a while, from now on, he has nothing to do with you!"
"Thank you, uncle!" Hearing that she didn't have to worry about the marriage contract anymore, Liu Xiaohui was really relieved this time.
She knew very well that if it weren't for the fact that her boyfriend had befriended the Zhao family brothers who were too magical, maybe things would have been a different situation.
......
The result of the Liu family's trip was not bad, at least the two sides did not fight each other in the end, and after agreeing to the request to pass down the follow-up exercises, the Liu family in Wangchuan almost treated Zhao Sidong as a living ancestor, and was very respectful.
But in the end, Liu Boen brought up another incident.
"Although the Ouyang family is a world friend of our Liu family, but if this incident is not done well, the two families will turn against each other! Although our Liu family is not necessarily afraid of the Ouyang family, what I am worried about is ...... In case the Ouyang family goes crazy and runs to form an alliance with the Yu family and the Kou family, then the Liu family will be in big trouble!"
Zhao Sidong also thought about this situation, so he asked lazily: "How far is the Ouyang family from here?"
"It's not very far, and if you start from here, you can have a twenty-kilometer look. Liu Boen's expression was very reserved, "The Ouyang family also has a similar village, but it was built with the help of our Liu family!"
Zhao Sidong was not interested in learning about the miscellaneous things in the past, so he just waved his hand and snorted: "Since this is the case, then let the Ouyang family completely become a thing of the past today." ”
Just half an hour after he said this, the group had appeared in front of a more modern village, and from afar you could clearly see a large plaque hanging above the main entrance of the village, on which the word 'Ouyang' was written in ancient style.
Outside the main entrance, there are four big men in black uniform samurai suits, but it is clear that their so-called guards are actually more symbolic, because in this day and age, who would come here to find trouble?
Although the status of the Ouyang family in the ancient martial arts world cannot be said to be very high, the interpersonal relationship is still passable, and the most important thing is that there are no enemies - those who were once enemies of the Ouyang family have become dead people.
As for those ordinary people who travel in the mountains and rivers, it is even more impossible, because the Ouyang family's village is located in the deep mountains, and the only few passages and entrances are guarded twenty-four hours a day, and people will not be let in casually. And except for those passages, unless you have wings, you will never be able to fly in.
In fact, when the Ouyang family decided to build the village here, it was not because of the terrain characteristics that it was easy to defend and difficult to attack.
Of course, in modern society, after the emergence of such things as airplanes, the so-called easy to defend and difficult to attack are no longer worthy of the name.
"Are there any other exits here?" Zhao Sidong glanced at it from a distance, and didn't bother to scan it with his divine sense, so he turned his head and asked directly.
Liu Xiaohui, who was in charge of leading the way, thought about it when she heard this, shook her head and said, "I'm not sure about this, because I've only been here once or twice when I was a child, and I haven't completely visited it at all." ”
Wu Yang interjected on the side and asked, "Didn't you say that the Ouyang family's Zhuang Courtyard was repaired with the help of your Liu family, why didn't you leave a secret hand?"
Liu Xiaohui glared at him angrily, "First, when I was repairing this village, I hadn't been born yet, even if I had a secret hand, I couldn't have known." Second, what the Liu family helped to repair was only the main project, and that was because the Liu family happened to have a professional construction team, and the interior decoration was all done by the Ouyang family themselves, so even if there was any secret hand, I was afraid that the family would have been sealed a long time ago...... Also, assuming they secretly build a few emergency evacuation exits on their own, we wouldn't be able to find out. ”
Wuyang laughed twice and didn't speak again, while Zhao Sidong frowned.
"Since the Ouyang family and the Liu family are world friends, why is there such a long difference in the construction time between the two villages? If I'm not mistaken, your Liu family's courtyard is at least a few hundred years old, right?"
For this problem, Liu Xiaohui didn't say why, she only knew that the Ouyang family didn't seem to have a foothold here before, and only moved from elsewhere decades ago, as for the issue of world relations, this is not a problem, because the ancestors of these two families used to be brothers from the same sect.
"I see...... Zhao Sidong nodded slightly, he didn't care about the history of the Liu family and the Ouyang family, so he pouted in the direction of the gate of the Zhuang Courtyard, and said, "Do you want to go directly to the door, or do you want to salute first and then soldier?"
"Fight directly! What else can I say about this kind of family that robs people's daughters, just fight and pull it down!" Wuyang screamed vigorously, looking like that, he seemed to want to fight immediately.
Zhao Sidong raised his hand and gave him a violent slap, and scolded with a smile: "You guy, don't learn to be so violent, don't learn well...... What, even if you really hit the door directly, it won't be your turn to be a three-legged cat, don't forget, the Ouyang family is also one of the four major families in Wangchuan, not to mention the innate realm, there should be more than ten people in the acquired Great Perfection alone, who do you think you can beat?"
Hearing this, Wuyang immediately coaxed, indeed, he is now just an acquired eightfold cultivation, although with his qualifications, the future is absolutely unlimited, but ...... The future is the future, the present is the present, and before he really grows up to a certain height, he is still just an acquired eightfold martial artist, and he is not qualified to mix this kind of thing at all.
Fortunately, Zhao Shidong saw the frustration in his heart on the side, so he smiled and said, "What's the matter, discouraged? Lost confidence?"
"How is that possible!" Wuyang jumped up like a wild cat that had been stepped on by its tail, and shouted: "If I had been born a few years earlier, my strength would definitely be much stronger than now!
I don't know if his voice was too loud, which attracted the attention of the Ouyang family's village, and the four children of the Ouyang family looked over in unison, looking a little vigilant.
Seeing this, Zhao Sidong shouted lightly: "Okay, don't make a fuss, be serious! Don't forget, we are here to smash the scene, don't let people think it's singing!"
Several people put on serious expressions, and soon came to the door of the Ouyang family's village.
"Stop, this is private territory,......" a big man raised his hand to signal that they couldn't go any further, his attitude was not very bad, at most it was a little blunt.
Zhao Sidong and the others didn't speak, but asked Liu Xiaohui to come forward, after all, if you want to achieve the goal of saluting first and then soldiering, it is most appropriate for her to come out first to attract the attention of the Ouyang family.
So Liu Xiaohui stood up without hesitation, "I am a member of the Liu family, and I have something important to ask to see the head of the Ouyang family!"
The four strong men glanced at each other, "People from the Liu family, may I ask who the girl is ......?"
"My name is Liu Xiaohui, if you haven't heard my name, you can ask other people. ”
With such a domineering answer, if Liu Xiaohui's acquaintances were present at this moment, they would definitely be surprised - this Nizi has always been gentle and kind, how could she have such a powerful queen aura?
The four strong men guarding the gate had obviously heard of her name and knew the relationship between her and the Ouyang family, so they said solemnly: "It turned out to be Miss Liu, please wait a moment, I will pass it on." ”
After that, the strong man took out a walkie-talkie from his body and shouted: "The door post calls the headquarters, the door post calls the headquarters!"
"Headquarters received, please speak, headquarters received, door post please speak!" There was a murmur on the walkie-talkie, and then a slightly hoarse voice came out of the walkie-talkie: "Hey, I said what kind of trick are you kid playing, the door guard is too idle, right, **** people are **** to my head......"
The strong man's face darkened slightly, and he quickly interrupted the other party's words: "Someone from the Liu family is visiting, repeat, someone from the Liu family is visiting!"
There was silence on the other end of the intercom for a moment, and then he asked, "Gatekeeper, you know what trouble you will cause by lying about the military situation." ”
The strong man's face flashed with a slight displeasure, and he replied in a deep voice: "The person who visited the Liu family is called Liu Xiaohui......"
Before he could finish speaking, the other end of the walkie-talkie hurriedly interrupted him, "Miss Liu Xiaohui, Miss Liu, please wait a moment, I will report to the head of the family!"
After that, there was no sound on the intercom. Only the rustle of an electric current as it passes through is heard.
Soon, the previous voice came from the walkie-talkie again, but this time it was more serious: "Please pay attention to the door guard, please pay attention to the door guard, stabilize Miss Liu Xiaohui first, and someone will come to receive her later." ”
After turning off the walkie-talkie, the strong man squeezed out a smile and owed to Liu Xiaohui, "Miss Liu, please wait." ”
Liu Xiaohui nodded indifferently and did not say a word.
After a while, the sound of footsteps came from far and near, and soon several people walked out of the gate.
The leader was a man about thirty years old, quite handsome, Yushu was in the wind, with a warm smile on his handsome face, and he said with a smile when he was still ten meters away: "Xiaohui, why are you free to come here today?"
Liu Xiaohui smiled at him and replied reservedly: "It turned out to be Brother Peng, I haven't seen you for a long time, why did you come out to welcome guests today?"
Ouyang Peng smiled, spread his hands helplessly and replied: "It's not that I'm a little unlucky, I accidentally provoked my old man, so I was punished to do the work of knowing the guest, your luck is good, it was the first guest I greeted." ”
Liu Xiaohui covered her mouth and chuckled, "Brother Peng, I haven't seen you for so many years, you are still so naughty." ”
The two talked about the old days at the door, and then walked into the gate of the village under the guidance of Ouyang Peng.
The group chatted while walking, but because Zhao Sidong and the others were very tight-mouthed, Ouyang Peng kept sending them to the place, and he couldn't find out their identities.
However, Ouyang Peng didn't think much about it, after all, this was the territory of the Ouyang family.
The official reception of Liu Xiaohui was an elder of the Ouyang family.
If it weren't for the fact that she was about to get engaged to Ouyang Hui, this treatment would not be even considered, and it would be good to have a deacon come forward to receive her.
“...... Basically, this is our intention, if we don't agree to dissolve this marriage, let's give a happy word!" Zhao Sidong explained his intention in a few words, which immediately made the elder of the Ouyang family angry.
