Chapter 14: The Yan Family
It's just that before that, Chen Zhi still has one more thing to do, that is, to go to the fat man's house to get that piece of spiritual jade, although the quality of that spiritual jade is not high, but for a monk like Chen Zhi in the Qi Induction Period, whether it is used to absorb the spiritual energy contained in it or for other purposes, it should be enough.
As a result, as soon as he arrived at Yu Fatzi's house, this Yu Fatman opened the door and greeted him warmly, Chen Zhi was not polite, just explained his intention a little, and Yu Fatman took out the piece of spiritual jade with both hands, Chen Zhi smiled at this, just patted Yu Fatty's shoulder, and said: "Boss Yu, it's better to go to nightclubs less, if you want to live a few more years." ”
After saying this headless sentence, Chen Zhi turned around and left Yu Fatzi's house, but when Yu Fatzi heard this, he stood in place in a bit of a daze for a while, and after a long time he muttered: "Could it be that Xiao Chen also went to a nightclub yesterday? I let him catch him? No! I have to be careful next time!"
Chen Zhike didn't care what the fat man thought in his heart, after putting this piece of spiritual jade into the treasure bag, he cleaned up the house a little, and picked up the Qingshuang sword that was already a little cracked, and had the intention to throw away this flying sword that was obviously about to be scrapped, but after thinking about it, he still sighed and put it in the treasure bag.
After entering the middle stage of qi induction, Chen Zhi felt more and more energetic, and his demand for food was gradually decreasing, obviously he was almost reaching the realm of Bigu, so Chen Zhi went out this time, and he carried very little cash, because basically he had no need for food.
Alas, if you could fly with Edgeworth, you wouldn't have to ride in a car here.
Chen Zhi thought with some chagrin, but what the Imperial Sword Flying needs is a medium-grade or above-grade flying sword, and his inferior Qingshuang Sword is obviously no longer able to meet this requirement.
However, although Chen Zhi has not been in contact with flying swords for a long time, he also knows that all flying swords are made of iron essence, supplemented by Taiyi essence crystal smelting, in order to become a qualified flying sword, and some more advanced flying swords are mixed with some rare materials such as crystal refining in the sword body to make the flying sword stronger and sharper.
And this iron essence itself is the essence of iron, a ton of steel can only be refined into one catty, and Taiyi essence crystal is even more priceless, this time to be able to buy such a flying sword, in fact, it has been made by Shushan in order to open a ceremony, making an exception.
Thinking of this, Chen Zhi didn't feel that the value of this flying sword that Yu Fat Man bought at the beginning was so expensive.
Chen Zhi naturally didn't know what to do, and just when he was lamenting a low-quality flying sword, in the belly of a mountain in a deserted place in the west, there was also a person who was sighing for a flying sword.
"Tut-tut, this scorching sun sword really deserves to be the treasure of my Yan family's Zhen clan, you can feel the strong fire spirit power contained in it from so far away, old ancestor, is this flying sword mixed with golden crow treasure gold? That's why it has such heat?"
A young man who looked to be in his early twenties, dressed as an urban young man, was followed by dozens of men and women in suits, old and young, but looking at their appearance, it seemed that this young man was the leader.
But all of these people were now standing in front of an old man who looked to be in his eighties, and except for the young man, everyone else stood with their heads bowed and silent, as if they were quite in awe of this old man.
And what is a little strange is that this old man is not dressed like other people, but is wearing a wide cyan robe, which is a little out of place with the people around him, but no one dares to object to this, but they all show cringe, and they don't even dare to look at it.
"Yes, my Yan family is responsible for transporting treasures for the Shushan Sect Ceremony today, the stakes are very high, I have to be cautious, all of you present are the core disciples of my Yan family, and Yan Luo is the best of the seventh generation of disciples of the Yan family, and it is also the future head of my Yan family, I hope you will put the interests of the family first, and assist Luo Er well, as long as this thing is done, my Yan family's status in the cultivation world will soar, and it will not be a problem to lead the eighteen states of Yanyun again. ”
The old man raised his head, and deep wrinkles appeared on his face like ravines, and his thin figure was a little out of place in the robe, and looking like that, the old man seemed to have reached the age of the wind and candle, but as soon as his head was raised, his eyes were swept away, although the eyes of the people present did not make contact with him, they still seemed to feel a tremble, as if they had been struck by lightning, and only the young man named Yan Luo seemed to have no feeling and looked at the old man calmly.
Fortunately, the old man just glanced at everyone present, and then withdrew his gaze, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
"Hey, it's good, it seems that everyone has made some progress, but Luo'er's progress is the most obvious, this mission is very important, I'll just say it bluntly, I just got the news, and the news that our Yan family is going to deliver things this time has been exposed......"
"What?
"How is that possible, Ancestor, are you mistaken?"
"Who? Who leaked the news?"
......
As soon as he heard the words of the ancestor of the Yan family, there was a lot of discussion in the belly of the mountain. Obviously, these core disciples of the Yan family still couldn't believe these words of the ancestor. "Okay, who has any questions to ask one by one, what kind of system is this?" Seeing this, the ancestor of the Yan family said with a cold expression.
As soon as these words came out, the originally noisy mountainside immediately quieted down, but everyone's eyes looked at the young disciple Yan Luo at the same time.
The Yan family ancestor raised his eyelids slightly, and he could already see the expressions of everyone present clearly, and after frowning his eyebrows, he still said to the most outstanding disciple of the younger generation of the Yan family: "Luo'er, you can ask." ”
"Yes, Old Ancestor!" Yan Luo didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly bowed over and said.
You must know that this Yan family's secret room was only opened when the Yan family's successive heads of the family discussed the most secret things in the family, and when this secret room was opened, the spiritual power consumption of seven or eight magic circles outside the secret room was an astronomical amount, and Yan Luo felt a little extravagant about it.
However, this also proves the importance of the next question, so he naturally brought up the spirit of twelve.
"May I ask the old ancestor, whether it is the core disciple of the Yan family who leaked the news, and whether it has been dealt with according to the family law. ”
"Yes, but this man has escaped, but he is seriously injured, and he will not live long. ”
"Then who did the news leak to this time, and how does the other party's strength compare to our Yan family?"
When the old master of the Yan family heard Yan Luo's two or three sentences and asked the key point, he couldn't help but show a hint of appreciation on his face, but after hearing this question, his voice returned slightly low: "It's a pity that it is the Southern Xinjiang Ten Thousand Poison Sect that learned the news that we are going to transport treasures, and the two major sects in Southern Xinjiang that are as famous as the Evil Ghost Valley. ”
As soon as they heard the words of the old master of the Yan family, including that Yan Luo, the faces of everyone present couldn't help but change at the same time. Seeing this, the old master of the Yan family sighed lightly, shook his head a little helplessly, and just wanted to say something, but Yan Luo seemed to have broken free from the shock, stepped forward and arched his hand: "Ancestor, then since this is the case, why can't we let the people of Shushan come to escort this batch of treasures with us, isn't it much better than our Yan family acting alone?"
When the old lord of the Yan family heard Yan Luo's words, the disappointment on his face disappeared slightly, and he nodded and said: "Yes, great-great-grandson, but we can't let the people from Shushan come to escort us together, this involves the agreement between the elders of the Yan family and Shushan, in fact, this escort has been set a hundred years ago, so it can't be changed, we can only escort it ourselves." ”
When Yan Luo heard this, his face also changed slightly, but he smiled bitterly, and still hugged his fist towards the old master of the Yan family and said: "Old ancestor, then Luo'er is really powerless about this matter, and I ask the old ancestor to arrange it himself." ”
After hearing this, a cold glint flashed in the eyes of the old master of the Yan family, and then he began to arrange it quietly.
"Yan Hui, you take twelve disciples to go first, open the way for Luo'er, if you find a suspicious person, you don't need to startle the snake, you can use the flying sword to send a book to report the news. ”
"Yes!"
A big man took a step forward, hugged his fist at the old master of the Yan family, and then bowed down.
"Yan Di, you take ten disciples and two boxes of treasures in the silver chest, exchange them for gold boxes, and then go to Shushan along Route 2. ”
"Yes!"
"Yan Xing, you take ten disciples, take two golden boxes, and go to Shu Mountain along the No. 4 Immortal Road, if you meet people from the Ten Thousand Poison Gate along the way, what should you do, I don't need to tell you, right?
"Yes!"
A big man's face changed slightly, but he still bowed down and took the order.
......
The old master of the Yan family arranged the manpower and their respective tasks for this trip at a very fast speed, until there were only two people left at the bottom, and then he said with a slow face: "Yan Luo! Yan Ling!"
A stunning woman of the same age as Yan Luo stepped forward, and the two of them responded aloud together: "Yes, Ancestor!"
After the old lord of the Yan family swept his gaze, he said: "Yan Luo, your physique is a rare fire spirit sword body in the cultivation world, this is the most coveted physique of sword cultivators, and it is also God's favor for you, this scorching sun sword can exert its power the most if you use it, and this mission is very important, so this sword will be brought by you." ”
"Yes, Ancestor!"
"Yan Ling!"
The stunning woman straightened her chest slightly, "Here, Ancestor!"
"You bring this ice silkworm plate, what you practice is the Jade Condensing Gong, and together with Luo'er, you can just give full play to your respective strengths and cover up the shortcomings in the exercises. ”
After saying this, the ancestor of the Yan family raised his hand and threw a palm-sized jade plate at the woman.
After the stunning woman stretched out her hand to catch it, she looked at the jade plate, only to see that the jade plate was engraved with an inch-long ice silkworm, and the head of the ice silkworm spiraled upward, as if there was a silk to spit out of her mouth.
After a pause, the ancestor of the Yan family continued: "The golden box at the back of the most Lu will naturally be handed over to you, the contents of the contents, I don't need to say that you should also know what the Dao is, right?"
When the two of them heard this, their hearts sank, the old ancestor's voice was not loud, but the cold meaning contained in the words made the two of them feel cold in their hearts at the same time, and they couldn't help but return: "The grandchildren must ensure that this treasure chest is sent to Shushan with their lives!"
Hearing this, the ancestor of the Yan family nodded slightly, then sat down as if he was very tired, waved his hand and said, "You all go out and leave today!"
After a while, only the ancestor of the Yan family was left alone in the entire belly of the mountain, but at this time, the ancestor of the Yan family suddenly said to a mountain wall: "Hmph, I didn't expect you to clean up the mess after the end, I'm really unwilling!"
As soon as the words fell, a mountain wall in the belly of the mountain suddenly flashed with white light, and a person dressed in black appeared, this person's whole body was shrouded in a black mist, and he didn't know if Lu Dao was hiding there at the beginning, or if he had just come in, but there were so many core disciples of the Yan family, but none of them could find his whereabouts.
As soon as this person appeared, a sneering smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and then his lips moved, and he passed on the voice to the ancestor of the Yan family.
