Lin Jin's sudden words let the two of them know that it was not a fuel-efficient lamp, and they had some confidence in their hearts. The old man in black had no intention of deceiving Lin Jin, and said helplessly: "You are right, we are indeed
You can't leave Qi Lou, you can't leave half a step away..."
Lin Jin moved two chairs for the two of them to sit on. The two of them sat directly on the chairs without any restraint.
"Actually, I'm very curious about your identities." Lin Jin said after sitting down, "I smell two completely different smells from you."
"Oh? You can smell this?" The old man in black laughed, patted the handle of the chair with his right hand, and said, "Then can you guess our identities from these two smells?"
Lin Jin looked at the old man in black, his nose shrank, and he said: "You have a metallic smell that remains even though you try your best to eliminate it. If my guess is correct, your major should be refining weapons.
aspect."
Although the old man in black did not speak, Lin Jin caught the admiration flashing in his eyes and turned to look at the old man in white.
"What? I also smell of that guy's weapon refining?" The old man in white sniffed his left and right sleeves with his nose, shaking his head like a rattle, and said with certainty, "No, absolutely not. Don't put it there.
I got involved with that guy."
Shaking his head slightly, Lin Jin smiled mysteriously and made a gesture of twisting his hands and putting them in his mouth. Seeing that the old man in white still looked confused, Lin Jin could only say: "You don't smell of weapon refining, on the contrary.
It smells like a lot of herbs, so if nothing else, you should be a monk in alchemy."
"I think the two of you should be brothers or something like that. Maybe it's because you two are highly skilled in alchemy and weapon refining. So you two casual cultivators were recruited into the Qi Tower by the original elder in charge?"
"Oh? I am an alchemist? He and I are brothers and sisters... Haha..."
The old man in white laughed heartily, but at the end of his laughter, there was a hint of sadness. It seemed that the word "alchemy" made him think of something he didn't want to think about.
The old man in black next to him sighed, patted the old man in white on the shoulder, and said: "Your guess is very accurate. One of him and I entered the Tao by refining weapons, and the other entered the Tao by refining elixirs. However, you have two things.
Wrong guess..."
"Oh? Which two points?"
"First of all, he and I are not casual cultivators. And there is a huge family support behind us. To be precise, neither he nor I are from Dongyue."
The explanation of the old man in black made Lin Jin's heart move. Both of them have the support of a huge family. Speaking of family, Lin Jin immediately thought of his two friends Yuzhe and Yufeng. There is also a possible future.
Shen Tubao is causing trouble for himself!
These three people led to the two major families of Dongyue, the Yu family and the Shentu family, among the ten major families in Tianshu continent. If these two were not Dongyue families, there would be eight remaining families...
"That's the first point, and another point...that guy and I were not recruited as strange people." The old man in white snorted coldly, seeming to recall something that made him very embarrassed.
Lin Jin's heart moved. Since both of them had the support of big families, it was naturally impossible for them to join the Star-Zhaing Tower just for the sake of being a mere stranger.
Although Zhaixing Tower is indeed a powerful sect, it is far from enough for two people with big backgrounds to lower their status and come here.
It seems...
"It doesn't really matter if I tell you, then Elder Zhu placed you between our rooms. Apparently he doesn't care at all about you knowing about us."
Immediately, a story about freedom being imprisoned because of a bet unfolded in front of Lin Jin.
It turns out that the old man in black is named Nangong Jing, and he is the elder of the Nangong family in Nanze, one of the ten major families in Tianshu continent!
The Nangong family has always been good at refining weapons in Tianshu Continent. In the glorious era of Tianshu Continent, Nangong Qi, the first-generation weapon emperor, was a member of the Nangong family.
The other old man in white has a similar background to Nangong Jing. His name is Qin Feng, and he is the elder of the Qin family in Nanze, one of the top ten families in Tianshu continent!
Similar to the Nangong family, the ancestor of the Qin family was Qin Yu, the Dan Emperor who dominated the alchemy world during the glorious period of Tianshu Continent!
One family masters weapons and the other masters elixirs. At that time and even now, many monks in Nanze say that Nanze is divided into two families, and the Yunnan Palace refines magical weapons, while the Qin family of Yeshi makes mysterious elixirs.
These three sentences are the manifestation of a peerless status in the hearts of many people!
The two elders of these two behemoth families knew each other, and they had a deep friendship. They often exchanged tips on weapon refining and elixir refining together.
Seeing that the friendship between the two was so deep, the senior officials of the two families did not stop the two from communicating for fear of the danger of the family secrets being leaked.
Therefore, two people together are equivalent to a complete person with two abilities: weapon refining and elixir refining.
And because the two people met to visit Dongyue hundreds of years ago, they were targeted by Elder Feng Zhan, the confidant of the owner of the Star Building Building. He coveted the two skills they possessed, so he made a bet with them in Dongyue.
There was a big gamble on a mountain called Qingshan in the east of Yue.
What Feng Zhan showed turned out to be the cultivation notes carefully compiled by successive owners of Zhaixing Tower. Such a precious thing naturally made the two of them think it was worth a gamble.
The fact is indeed the case. What kind of existence are the owners of the Star-Zhaing Tower in the past? If they can bring the set of cultivation notes compiled by the two people back to the family for their disciples to practice, it can directly make up for the difficulties of the disciples who use pills and tools to enter the Tao.
For the shortcomings of going up and down!
Such thoughts kept the two in a radical state during their gamble with Feng Zhan, and Feng Zhan had no intention of winning the two of them openly. Under his secret arrangement, the two finally lost to Feng Zhan.
.
The most direct consequence of this huge gamble was that the blood contract signed between the two and Feng Zhan was in Feng Zhan's hands!
The blood contract looks like an ordinary piece of parchment at first glance, but the unusual aspect is that the blood contract is imprinted with the soul of the person who made the contract, which means that the person holding the blood contract can end the contract at any time.
The soul of man!
For a cultivator, if the soul is destroyed, the consequences can be imagined. Under such circumstances, the chance of death is even one in ten thousand.
Therefore, the lives of the two people are basically in Feng Zhan's hands, and Feng Zhan's request for the two people from now on is to unconditionally record the two families' insights on weapon refining and alchemy into a book and give it to him
.
As the powerful elders of two families, the two of them would naturally not do such a thing. It would not only endanger the interests of the family, but also bring their reputations into disrepute!
Although he knew that Feng Zhan was tampering secretly, the blood contract was already in his hands after all, and the two of them were really in a dilemma at that time.
In the end, the two of them still didn't agree to Feng Zhan's request, and they were forced by Feng Zhan to the Star Reaching Tower.
At that time, when the Qi Tower was just built, Feng Zhan asked him to write what he wanted on the sixth floor. As long as the requirements were not met, they would stay in the Qi Tower for the rest of their lives. It was also stipulated that the two of them could not
Leave the Qi Tower even half a step, otherwise you will die!
The two of them did not ask for help from their families during this period, not only because of the issue of face, but also because if Feng Zhan was angered and directly used the blood contract to kill the two of them, even if the two families came to investigate, there would be no evidence.
,what to do?
Therefore, due to this stalemate, the two spent hundreds of years in these two rooms.
"Feng Zhan..." Lin Jin murmured.
"What? Do you know him?" Nangong Jing looked curious and turned to look at Qin Feng next to him, as if asking: Is Feng Zhan's reputation so great?
Qin Feng rubbed the tip of his beard, shook his head and said, "It's hard to say..."
"I have only met him once at the exchange meeting between the other two giant sects in Dongyue, so I know him." Lin Jin was struggling with one thing at this time. The two people in front of him were simply two twins in front of him.
A shining treasure!
"Have the blood contract between you two always been placed on Feng Zhan?" Lin Jin had to determine the location of the blood contract so that he could make a decision.
"Of course not, he can't be in Qilou all the time." Qin Feng casually picked up a cup of tea on the table and took a sip, "The blood contract between the two of us has always been secretly changed with the replacement of Qilou elders.
Instead, the blood contract should be with Elder Zhu now."
"Then this will be easy to handle!" Lin Jin suddenly laughed.
Just as the two looked at each other doubtfully and were about to speak, Lin Jin said: "I will negotiate a deal with you.")
