Chapter 568: Opportunity
“Xu Chang..Ge..?”
With the warm light emitted by the jumping bonfire, looking at the picturesque young man in brocade robes in front of her, Feng Ziming's delicate eyes widened slightly, holding the token in her small hands, but soon her expression gradually revealed a hint of tangle.
After a long time, Feng Ziming looked at Xu Yuan, but hesitated to speak.
Xu Yuan glanced at her and said softly:
“If something happens, just say it’s okay.”
"that."
Feng Ziming took a deep breath, as if she had made some determination, and asked quietly but quickly:
“Who is Xu Xu Changge?”
ˆ “.”
The air suddenly became quiet, leaving only the crackling sound of the bonfire burning around.
Xu Yuanfeng's Qingyun expression gradually became stiff.
Speaking of bigger things,
Does the Feng family's propaganda campaign want the subordinates to not recognize the emperor?
Here you are, please save me.
Feng Ziming quickly replied respectfully, with a slightly immature voice hesitant: "In fact, I rarely go back to the Clan Hall."
Xu Yuan touched his chin:
“So. Did you provoke him?”
Xu Yuan waved his hand casually and asked softly:
In the middle of the sentence, Bai Muxi saw a flash of surprise in the eyes of the handsome young man in front of her, but she was still a little puzzled. She immediately changed her words and said:
"Ha, it seems like you don't understand. Let me explain it this way. My young master is the eldest son of Feng Qian, the previous head of the Feng family, and the nephew of Feng Jiuxuan, the current head of the Feng family. You should be able to understand it now, right? ?”
With a calm expression, Xu Yuan turned his attention to Bai Muxi who was standing aside.
After looking at each other for a moment, Bai Muxi, who was warned once by her eyes, forced down the smile on her lips and said calmly:
“The eldest son of the prime minister’s office”
Xu Yuan raised his eyebrows: "What do you mean?"
This matter can be big or small.
But it is understandable.
As far as the eye can see, Bai Muxi is also looking at her pure and beautiful face, but the slightly raised corners of her lips seem to be a bit unstretched.
Speaking of this, Feng Ziming slightly clenched her fists:
“But I only stayed in the clan hall for about two months before I was kicked out, so I’m not very clear about things in the clan.”
Thinking in his mind, Xu Yuan caught another inconsistency in this girl's words and asked with a chuckle:
Feng Ziming tentatively raised her eyes to look at Xu Yuan, and explained in a low voice: "I have been practicing with my grandfather in Wanyan Village since I was a child. Well, Wanyan Village is a small village next to Pingxin Cliff in the northernmost section of Xifeng Mountain Range. Basically isolated from the world, my grandfather sent me to the clan hall just before he died of illness, but "
“This...I’m not very clear about this.”
When birthrights exceed worldly constraints, there are very few people who can stick to their true nature and be humble and treat others.
"Think about it. Although you are very good, if you have a conflict with Feng Xianru, there should be no place for you in Qifeng Hall. It is human nature to be strong. As long as that guy shows a trace of disgust towards you, Tang My peers and even the teachers who teach me would probably say nasty things to me, or even punch me.”
Feng Ziming lowered his head in silence.
But people always have double standards, so Xu Yuan's first impression of the collateral genius was not very good.
Xu Yuanrao said to himself with great interest:
“Now, don’t the clan members tell you about the relationship between the Feng family’s branches and the Di’an Prime Minister’s Mansion?”
He seemed to be such a person before Xu Yuan.
The cohesion of a large family is formed subtly through education. After a newborn is born, the family's lesson plans and publicity trends will cultivate them in the direction of loyalty to the emperor and patriotism.
"oh?"
It's a fool's fault to pretend to be cool.
Thoughts flashed through his mind, Xu Yuantan took the identity token handed back by Feng Ziming’s hands and asked softly:
It seems that the pot is not with the Feng family branch.
Through the words in this girl's mouth, Xu Yuan had a psychological portrait of the surly and arrogant young genius named Feng Xianru.
“You just said that you were entrusted by Feng Xianru to take the initiative to apply to serve as a guard here. Why are you suddenly being kicked out now?”
To put it in a smaller way,
This is an oversight on the part of the top management of the Feng family clan, which caused some ideological problems in the clan's propaganda outlet.
But think about it, there are always black scale guards stationed near the Xifeng Mountains, so the Feng family should not dare to do such stupid things blatantly.
Feng Ziming lowered her head, but finally protested softly: "I actually don't know why he hates me."
Feng Jiuxuan has no surviving heirs. As the eldest son of the previous head of the family, Xu Changge is undoubtedly the first heir to the head of the Feng family. However, the girl named Feng Fangming in front of him actually does not know his eldest brother's name.
The pretense is interrupted, and the continued pretense is meaningless.
Xu Yuan shook his head and did not continue to test.
When she finished speaking, a flash of panic flashed in Feng Ziming's eyes.
Although her mind was still a little confused, she had heard of both names.
“.” Feng Ziming lowered her head and said nothing, seeming to acquiesce.
Hurryly, he wanted to get up from the ground and salute, but Xu Yuan interrupted his spellcasting.
“Fang Ming, can you take me to the cave?”
The moment she heard these words, Feng Ziming's short and delicate body trembled obviously, as if she was afraid.
Xu Yuan caught this and sighed:
“He won’t let you bring outsiders over?”
"Um"
Feng Ziming looked at the eldest son in front of her with panic eyes: "Feng Xianru said... If I dare to bring others over, he will kill me."
“Oh? This boy really dares to kill people indiscriminately?”
“He beat people to death in clan competitions.”
ˆ “.”
The girl in front of her seemed to be extremely afraid of the Phoenix Immortal Confucian, and she was cowering.
After thinking for a moment, Xu Yuan slowly leaned down, squatted in front of her, and said softly:
"Well, how about you help me lead the way this time, and if he asks you about it later, tell me my name. If he refuses to obey and dares to trouble you, I will teach him a lesson for you, how about it?"
ˆ “.”
Feng Ziming’s eyes flickered.
This big brother doesn’t seem to be joking.
Feng Ziming pursed her thin lips and asked in a low voice:
“Sir, why do you want to help someone like me?”
“I’m not helping you, this is a deal.”
Xu Yuan bent his eyes and looked soft: "You take me to find that cave, and I will solve the trouble for you. It's fair."
“That’s not fair.”
Feng Ziming tugged at the corner of her clothes: "It's just a simple task for me to lead the way, but you, sir, want to offend Feng Xianru."
"all the same."
Xu Yuan smiled and interrupted the girl's words with frivolous words:
"Just like he can bully you at will because he doesn't like it, I can also kill him at will because I don't like him."
He said,
Xu Yuan slowly stood up straight, holding the dancing and swaying firelight behind him, and slowly stretched out his hand towards the girl in front of him:
“So, do you want to trade with me?”
ˆ “.”
The girl slowly raised her eyes and looked at him.
With the light of the bonfire behind him, the man's face was hidden in the shadows, with only the dark light reflected in his eyes.
Subconsciously,
Walking on the way to the Feng Family Ancestral Temple, Bai Muxi looked at the back of the "young man" leading the way and suddenly asked coldly.
The wind in the forest blew through her hair. Xu Yuan glanced at her and replied casually:
“It’s natural that Ran Qingmo should take care of the people he picked up personally.”
Da Bingtuozi seems to be a fool.
I used to pick up things, now I pick up people.
Not only can you pick up opportunities everywhere, but you can always connect with some very lucky people.
When chatting before, Ran Qingmo mentioned that before she killed Qin Mo, when she was rushing towards Jingjiang Mansion, she met Qin Mo by chance in the vast forest, and even formed a small good relationship with him.
It’s not like him, a bad guy, who goes around making enemies with people.
Bai Muxi failed to understand what Xu Yuan meant and asked in confusion:
“Is there something special about her?”
While talking, the four of them kept walking through the mist in the mountains and forests.
Xu Yuan thought for a while and asked:
“Can you tell her gender?”
“Can’t you tell that this is some kind of special physique?” Bai Muxi responded quickly.
Xu Yuan nodded and said with a smile:
“Yin Yang Xuan Ti, have you heard of it?”
"No."
“A physique that is very suitable for making a cauldron. The Yin-Yang Mysterious Pattern Body is innate with the two Dao Aggregates. If you use it as a cauldron, there is a chance that you will be able to comprehend one of Taiyin | Dao Aggregate and Xuanyang Dao Aggregate.”
“Sir, do you want to take him in?”
“Haha, I don’t think so, Yin and Yang Tao Yun don’t fit well with me.”
Xu Yuan shook his head and said with a smile: "And compared to using it as a cauldron, the benefits of cultivating the owner of the Yin-Yang Xuanwen body are actually greater."
“This must be difficult, otherwise why would this physique be used as a cauldron?”
“Of course it’s difficult, otherwise the Yin Yang Xuan Pattern Body wouldn’t be used as a cauldron.”
Xu Yuan did not deny it, and his tone was a bit sad:
“It’s okay not to practice. Once the Yin-Yang Mysterious Pattern Body embarks on the path of practice, the day when the Yin-Yang Dao Yun awakens will most likely be the time of her death.”
Bai Muxi pondered for a moment and asked:
“Sir, are you going to help her?”
“Help? How to help?”
Xu Yuan asked in a funny tone: "You should know very well whether outsiders can interfere with Dao Yun. Ran Qingmo created this opportunity for me, so I just made a good relationship casually."
As he spoke, Xu Yuan looked at the girl’s back in front of him and said in a faint tone:
"If this girl can survive, then she will pick a peach and bring it to her army. If she cannot survive, it will be her life."
Dad really taught Xu Yuan a lot with his words and deeds.
Broadcast seeds without fertilizing.
The price paid for careful cultivation is too high, and it is not sure whether it will grow crookedly due to excessive fertilization.
So just sow the seeds, and the people who grow up will naturally come into your field of vision, and then you can use your own power to pick peaches.
Thoughts flashed through Xu Yuan's lips, and a smile suddenly appeared on his lips:
“Let’s not talk about this girl for now.
“Mu Xi, what do you think of Feng Xianru?”
ˆ “.”
Bai Muxi's eyes changed slightly. After absorbing the new information, his thoughts surged rapidly for a moment, and he softly replied:
“Sir, are you saying that Fengxianru has also seen through this girl’s hidden secrets, so he wants to use her as a cauldron to understand Tao Yun?”
As he spoke, a flash of doubt flashed in Xiaobai’s eyes:
"If this is the case, then the reason why the boy forced this girl out of Qifeng Hall makes sense. If the Black Scale Guards find out, Feng Fangming will most likely be sent to Di'an City."
"Then why is it near the Feng family's ancestral temple?" Xu Yuan asked abruptly: "Wouldn't it be better to send it to other deep mountains and old forests? It just happens to be in the area of this ancestral temple."
Bai Muxi frowned:
"Easy to keep an eye on? Judging from the way the girl looks forward and backward, Feng Xianru seems to come here often, looking at the girl while taking the treasures."
Xu Yuan thought for a moment and shook his head:
“Not sure. With such an incident, there is a high probability that we will have to deal with this side genius during this trip. Then we can just ask him directly.”
After saying this, Lin Hai fell into silence.
About two quarters of an hour later, the girl who was leading the way quickly stopped in front of a stone wall, looked back at Xu Yuan, and whispered timidly:
“Sir, we are here.”
Settled down and looked around.
This is a place at the bottom of a cliff, surrounded by forests on three sides and a steep wall on one side. There is no cave at all.
After scanning for a moment with his spiritual vision again, Xu Yuancai noticed that there were faint formation fluctuations on the cliff in front of him.
Such a mysterious illusion formation.
It’s a good thing that boy was lucky enough to find this place in this vast forest.
With a slight sigh in his heart, Xu Yuan walked directly towards the cliff. At this time, Feng Ziming beside him hurriedly said:
"Sir, wait a minute, you will get hurt if you go in like this. You need blood to enter this cave."
As she spoke, she opened her coat and pulled out a short blade, and was about to cut it on her white little hand. Judging from the scars on her palm, it was obvious that she often did this.
But this time, before she could finish her words, a buzzing sound suddenly spread out towards the mist in the mountains and forests with Xu Yuan as the center.
When everything fell silent, the mountain wall in front of us had disappeared, replaced by the entrance to a deep cave.
Xu Yuan casually pressed the blade in the girl's hand, and asked softly in her stunned eyes:
“Feng Xianru entered here and has been using your blood?”
“Ah no.”
After a brief moment of daze, the girl shook her head like a rattle and stumbled: "He usually uses his own blood. He only taught me a few times, but why... Master, why can you start the formation without using blood?"
“Because my mother is Feng Qian’er.”
The collateral line requires blood as proof to open the formation, but the direct line only needs to connect its own source energy to the formation to open it directly.
"oh"
Feng Ziming responded softly and lowered her eyes to wonder what she was thinking.
Inside the cave is a meticulously repaired straight corridor, three feet long, three feet wide and one high, extending to the end of the field of vision. There are numerous formations hidden in it that scatter dangerous light.
As soon as they stepped into the corridor, the four people were immediately greeted by the numerous bright lanterns hanging upside down directly above the corridor. They moved towards the depths of the corridor. The swaying firelights in the lamps were of different colors. There were nine lights in total, but now there were only four inside. The lamp is lit.
Feng Ziming said softly while leading the way:
“Each bright light here will create an illusion. Only by breaking through that illusion can you light up the light and move forward. I have been here for half a year and have lit up four.”
ˆ “.”
Xu Yuan’s eyes were very calm regarding the corridor designed like a copy.
A country cannot be left without an owner for a day. In order to prevent the direct bloodline from being accidentally cut off, the ancestors of the Feng family set up nine tests in the ancestral hall. If the collateral branches light up nine lanterns, they have the right to inherit the direct line.
However, Feng Ziming's words slightly attracted Xu Yuan's attention.
After walking a long distance, Xu Yuan suddenly asked softly:
“Didn’t Feng Xianru himself come to break into the Nine Mysterious Lantern Array?”
Feng Ziming thought for a while and answered truthfully:
“No, he waits for me at the entrance every time.”
ˆ “.”
Hearing this answer, Xu Yuan's expression instantly became strange.
But I haven’t had time to speak yet,
Almost at the same time,
Except for Feng Ziming, the iron-clad rookie, Xu Yuan and the other three looked towards the entrance of the corridor almost at the same time.
And there,
Slowly walked in a young man in white with a handsome face.
