Chapter 308: A Cao's Past (2)
Tian's disciple, this identity surprised Zhaoming, he knew that there must be a relationship between Dao Ancestor and Ah Cao, but he never thought that it would be a master-apprentice relationship.
But the Earth Ape Elder should not deceive himself, and what is even more unbelievable is that although his Flame Recipe was perfected under the guidance of the Golden Queen Mother, it was passed down by Ah Cao, so he actually became the disciple grandson of Hongjun Dao Ancestor.
The disciple and grandson of the Dao Ancestor, this relationship is considered to be Zhaoming, and there is a sense of the world spinning.
Elder Earth Ape continued, "Heavenly disciple naturally attracts everyone's attention. This identity alone is already uncommon for people to treat as usual, not to mention the flame recipe taught by the Dao Ancestor. Even if he was a grass fox from a humble background, Ah Cao was indescribably respected. ”
"Where there are people, there is no intrigue, even if it is a fallen giant. When you are respected by others, you will naturally attract others to calculate. The four surnames of the fox clan all want to bring her under their command, and the tiger clan and the lion clan also want her to become a member of the clan. Don't say that these big clans, even some small clans, are also trying to get close to her. ”
"All kinds of co-optation methods emerge in endlessly, and even flattery. She was originally a grass fox, at the bottom of the fox clan's power, but she was spoiled like a little princess by these people, and her temper was no longer as cowardly as before, and sometimes she did lawless things. ”
"This has been going on for more than a thousand years, and no one has succeeded, and Ah Cao has never joined any of the clans. And with the flame technique taught by the Dao Ancestor, although her cultivation is not a thousand miles a day, she has also improved very quickly, especially for the manipulation of flames, even the Red Fox Clan can't compare. ”
The other clans gradually had the intention of retreating, and no longer wanted to win her over, but the Red Fox Su family wanted her even more. With the Su family's flame talent, if they can obtain the Flame Technique, the strength of the entire family will definitely increase by leaps and bounds. When all kinds of means were useless, the red fox patriarch made a heavy decision. ”
He asked his third son, Su Zhi, to pretend to pursue Ah Cao. Capture Fang's heart to marry her into the Chi family. Once Ah Cao becomes a member of the Chi family, this flame technique will naturally become the practice of the Chi family sooner or later. ”
Speaking of this, there was a lot of regret between the eyebrows of the Earth Ape Elder, and although Zhaoming had not heard it completely, he already vaguely knew what was going on.
"That's where a lot of things began!" Elder Earth Ape sighed. Then he continued: "Su Zhi is the most outstanding rising star of the Red Fox Clan, with extraordinary talent, and he is also a talent, and he can speak well, I don't know how many demon clans on Abbot Island are obsessed with him. ”
"It's also born like this, one thing descends one thing. Su Zhi is suave and has countless friendships, but he has never really planned to marry someone, everyone thinks. He is not going to really fall in love with any woman. ”
"They are all scheming people, and many people have seen the intentions of the Red Fox Patriarch, but no one would have thought of such a result: Ah Cao has not yet fallen in love with Su Zhi, but Su Zhi has fallen in love with Ah Cao first. ”
"Maybe a person has seen too many peony and peony, and suddenly sees a white lotus, he will feel fresh and beautiful. Although Ah Cao has been spoiled as a brutal little princess, her heart has not changed, and she is still a pure child. There is no such means for such people. It is precisely the most powerful means. ”
After getting along for a while, Ah Cao only had a good impression of Su Zhi. Su Zhi couldn't help falling in love with her. Whatever she asks for, she will try to do it. A lot of lawless things were done, and the two played around together and were punished together. After a long time, Ah Cao finally agreed to Su Zhi's marriage proposal. ”
Just a month before getting married, Ah Cao wanted to tease Su Zhi. But he unexpectedly heard the conversation between Su Zhi and his mother, which was about Su Zhi's deception of the Flame Jue. ”
The people around him actually approached him with a purpose, which naturally made Ah Cao heartbroken, and after a big quarrel with Su Zhi, he ran away from Abbot Island alone. ”
"Because she used to do something similar. Disappeared for months, never knowing where to return. So many people just think she is angry, but they don't think that this will disappear forever. It wasn't until a year later that a spy who inquired about the news on the edge of the Flood Desolate Continent said that he had seen Ah Cao on the Flood Desolate Continent, and it wasn't until she actually left Abbot Island this time. ”
"Didn't you think about going to her?" asked Zhaoming, even though he knew that the result was irreparable, but he was unwilling.
Elder Earth Ape shook his head: "Naturally, I was looking for it, General Bai Ze sent more than 10,000 people to the Flood Desolate Continent, but they all returned in vain, and even nearly 3,000 people died because they were discovered by the Wu Clan." ”
"Ah Cao's life is life, and other people's lives are also life, so the sacrifice is too great, General Bai Ze naturally stopped searching. ”
Su Zhi felt guilty in his heart, and left Abbot Island many times to go to the Hongbarren Continent to find Ah Cao. But how dangerous the Flood Desolate Continent was, the Red Fox Patriarch naturally refused to allow it, and blocked him back many times. How could Su Zhi be willing, and he wanted to go out when he found an opportunity. ”
"The Red Fox Patriarch had no choice but to let people make up the news that Ah Cao had died and sent it back to Abbot Island. Su Zhi couldn't accept such a reality, suspecting that his father was making it up, and felt that there was indeed no way to survive when he went to the Flood Desolate Continent. This hesitation in his heart was like a demonic fire, and within a few days he became muddy, like a madman. ”
Hearing this, Zhaoming couldn't help but sigh. When he heard that Su Zhi was trying to deceive Ah Cao, he couldn't help but feel angry in his heart, and even regretted helping Su Zhi recover his sanity just now. can hear this, but sigh that the world makes people, and those who harm others are harmed by themselves.
Su Zhi has been crazy for more than three hundred years, and when he regained his senses, the former young man was gone, and he became silent, and even avoided the people of the Red Fox clan when he saw him. In the end, even the parents and relatives have disappeared since then, like a wasted person. ”
"This tomb is the mound he built for Ah Cao, and the statue is slowly carved out by him day by day. It took more than 1,000 pieces to be carved before and after. ”
"This is Ah Cao's tomb and his own tomb, he locked himself here, and he didn't see anyone except me and General Bai Ze. I see that he has been tormenting himself here for more than a thousand years, and he can't bear it, so I asked you to come over to resolve his demons. ”
The cause and effect were clear, so that Zhaoming didn't know how to respond, and his mind was even blank, unable to comment on the affairs of these two people.
After a long time, he sighed heavily and said, "Senior, do you have any wine?" I want to sit here. ”
Elder Earth Ape took out a few jugs of wine and handed them to him: "In that case, then you will wait here for him to come back, and I will leave first." ”
Zhaoming nodded, and said to Yang Sansan: "Sansan, you go with your senior, and he just arranges a place with you." ”
"Big brother ......" Yang Sansan didn't want to, but he couldn't find a reason to convince Zhaoming.
Zhaoming smiled: "It's okay, you go first, I want to be quiet here." ”
"Let's go!" Elder Earth Ape touched Yang Sansan's head, and as soon as his true anger rolled, he took her away in the air.
Zhaoming looked back, glanced at the tombstone, then at the statue, walked over with wine, and sat down in front of the grave.
took a sip of wine, looked at the tombstone, and had mixed feelings in my heart, as if I had a lot to say to Ah Cao, but in the end, it was blank, and I even forgot about the surrounding qiē, as if sitting in the clouds and fluttering in the wind.
Before you know it, tears gush out, pour down, and drip down your face. When he came back to his senses, he felt extremely bitter in his heart, pressed one hand on the tombstone, and said softly: "Ah Cao, I miss you very much!"
Think of her appearance, think of her reprimand, think of her smile. A thousand words, and only this one sentence can be expressed.
I sat quietly for a long time, and when I felt someone coming, I looked up and saw that it was Su Zhi.
At this time, he had cleaned up, no longer like a beggar before, and he was dressed cleanly, but the loneliness in his eyebrows and eyes was still clearly visible.
Looking at this Red Fox Clan man, Zhaoming suddenly became inexplicably calm. He was a little annoyed with the other party, because the other party had deceived Ah Cao. But he pity the other party, because he hurt himself in the end.
If it were someone else, Zhaoming would definitely want to seek justice for Ah Cao, but Su Zhi had been like a madman for more than a thousand years, and he felt that there was no reason for him to repay anything for Ah Cao.
In the final analysis, as the Elder of the Earth Ape said: Evil fate.
Lowering his figure and walking to Zhaoming, Su Zhi bowed and saluted: "Thank you!"
At this moment, he naturally understood that everything Zhaoming had just done was for his good.
Zhaoming shook his head: "You don't have to thank me, if I had known about you and Ah Cao before, maybe I wouldn't have helped you!"
At the mention of the past, a trace of pain flashed in Su Zhi's eyes, and he shook his head helplessly: "No matter what, I have to thank you after all." ”
Approaching the hut again, he came out with something in his hand, a hairpin, a hair ornament, and a long sword and red jade beads.
"I buried all of Cao's clothes in this mound of clothes, she has a lively nature, and there are few things that can keep her interested for a long time. Except for the heart sound Chiyu that she never left her body, there were only these few things left. ”
"These relics, I think, you have more power than I do to keep them. ”
It turned out to be a relic of Ah Cao, and Zhaoming suddenly felt the thoughts in his heart surge again, and reached out to take all the things. Hairpins and hair ornaments are all extremely ordinary jade, and they are not precious.
The long sword was packed in a wooden box, and when it was pulled out in half, it was found to be rusty. Zhaoming looked at Su Zhi with some doubts, although the long sword itself was only at the level of an immortal weapon, it was a refined magic weapon after all, and it should not be rusty.
Su Zhi explained: "The relationship between Ah Cao and Dao Ancestor, I think Elder Earth Ape has already told you. In the past, Dao Ancestor used a rusty sword in the cultivation world, and she admired Dao Ancestor very much, so she asked people to help her imitate one. This rust is specially refined. ”
Zhaoming nodded, and then took the red jade bead in his hand.
I don't know what the jade bead is, it is full of veins, like sea water, exuding the energy of flames, which is extraordinary.
Just as he was about to ask Su Zhi, Zhaoming was suddenly stunned, and he suddenly found that the jade bead seemed to be engraved with words in his eyes. (To be continued......)
