Xu Guangling woke up from a deep sleep that night and rubbed his eyebrows. He had not closed his eyes for three days, and he fell asleep unconsciously just sitting on the chair.
It was already the Bailu solar term, and it was about to enter the depths of winter. The air was slightly cold, and the door was blown open by the slightly cold wind at some point. When Xu Guangling walked to the door and was about to close it, he suddenly intuitively told him that something was missing in this room.
With a clever glance, Xu Guangling suddenly saw that the painting on the wall disappeared!
sky.
It was handed down from ancestors. Everyone in the Xu family knew the name of the owner of the painting, but it disappeared without him noticing. If this matter spreads out, and it comes at a time when the Xu family is in great danger, everyone in the family will
You will lose confidence. If the faith in your heart is gone, how can you still fight against the other three.
Xu Guangling was worried not only about the painting, but also about the secret room behind the painting, where the incense was passed down and the place where the will of the Xu family condensed. If there were any setbacks, the position of the patriarch might not be guaranteed.
Immediately opening the secret room, Xu Guangling was so anxious that he didn't even light the candle. After the darkness, there was a dim secret room ahead.
There is a man in black standing there!
The man in black is holding a spiritual tablet in his hand, and he is gently wiping it.
Who is this person!?
Xu Guangling's head was already in a mess. An outsider could evade the Xu family's three-step, one-post, five-step, one-post guard, and still enter the study room quietly. What was even more frightening was that he seemed to know the Xu family's secret rooms very well!
This kind of person is beyond the scope of Xu Guangling's cognition, and there seems to be no such number one person in the world.
"Xu Guangling, how far can the Xu family develop to your satisfaction? Can you take charge of Ximu City? Or Mu Bingcheng? Or lead mortals and establish a kingdom? I can satisfy you." The man in black said calmly.
Xu Guangling's heart was suddenly hammered by these words. With the current strength of the Xu family, even the status of Ximu City was no longer guaranteed. He had already begun to arrange for outstanding members of the clan to escape from Ximu City, leaving Qingshan without fear of running out of firewood.
For such a miraculous person, Xu Guangling's mind immediately surged with several unimaginable words "Shangxian", and only a Shangxian could say such words.
Xu Guangling struggled to move his throat. He first bowed respectfully and said, "Senior, please put the tomb of a member of my Xu family back." After saying this, Xu Guangling's back was soaked with sweat and his heart was pounding.
The man in black raised his head, and the coldness gradually hit Xu Guangling's heart. He suddenly felt like he had fallen into an ice cellar, his whole body was shaking, and his teeth were chattering.
"Senior!" Xu Guangling gritted his teeth and said again.
The man in black did not speak. He withdrew his gaze, gently put the memorial tablet back, and took one last look before saying, "You haven't answered what I just said."
With the keen foresight of the patriarch, Xu Guangling immediately knew that this was a good fortune, and it was a good fortune that could bring the Xu family back to life. Although it was unclear what the relationship between this immortal and the ancestor was, Xu Guangling used his own mortal knowledge to
He had experience, and he could see the domineering meaning in those eyes. It seemed that as long as he said a few words, the immortal would do it for him.
But Xu Guangling is not a person who is eager for quick success. He thought for a moment, then gritted his teeth and said: "Junior, I kindly ask senior to drive out the other three families of Ximu City from this city!"
A gleam flashed in Wang Yuan's eyes, which made Xu Guangling's heart tremble as he looked straight at him. His little calculation was revealed by Wang Yuan.
To become the leader of a clan, one must be ruthless. When Xu Guangling said to drive out Ximu City, this is the art of language, but in fact he meant to directly obliterate it.
And he did not choose those unrealistic ideas about establishing a country. For the Xu family, without the immortals sitting in charge, it would soon be destroyed.
"Okay, I should comply with you." Wang Yuan agreed on the spot, but the subject changed: "But you must also agree to my request."
"Yes." Xu Guangling nodded and replied. He didn't know that there was something in him that the senior took notice of.
Wang Yuan looked at all the spiritual tablets in the secret room and said softly: "The children of the Xu family must protect these spiritual tablets as the first priority. If there is anything wrong with these spiritual tablets, I will knock you back to your current status."
Although the words were spoken very softly, Xu Guangling was shocked by the vague and domineering aura. Protecting the spiritual position is very important, and it is something that every tribesman must defend with their lives. Immediately, Xu Guangling knelt down,
Bowed three times to Wang Yuan.
Wang Yuan received these three obeisances, which is what he deserves. It can also be said that he can be regarded as Xu Guangling's elder.
When Xu Guangling raised his head, Wang Yuan had already left the secret room, and he silently accepted the painting.
…
The next day, Xu Guangling's study room was knocked by a servant. Xu Guangling didn't sleep all night. Now he is a little scared when he thinks about it. He is afraid of what he will do if he is tricked by others.
But when the door was opened and the servant reported a shocking thing that happened in Ximu City last night, Xu Guangling actually sat on the ground with a silly smile.
Overnight, the other three major families in Ximu City were wiped out, and no one was left. Even the dogs and cats in captivity disappeared together and disappeared from the world.
Xu Guangling, the head of the Xu family, led his clan members to immediately take over the business and territory managed by the other three families. For a time, there was a major blood change in Ximu City, and the weakest Xu family actually took over Ximu City.
Various rumors spread. Some said that a female member of the Xu family was favored by the Immortal and wiped out three major families in one night. Others said that it was the Xu family's trump card and they used the hidden Immortal.
Bloodbath three major families.
When Wang Yuan left, he caught a disciple of the Immortal Worshiping Sect in the Jiuyi Cauldron. This disciple's cultivation had reached the Perfect Formation of Dan, and his name was Yan Si.
He sent Yan Si to hide in the Xu family and protect the Xu family for generations. Wang Yuan also gave Yan Si a blessing, allowing him to safely break through the Nascent Soul stage.
On the other side, in Mu Bing City, "Yiju" opened. Under the banner of craftsmanship passed down for hundreds of years, it attracted many people to come and taste its signature dishes.
These "Ice Wind Spreading Wings" were made by Wang Yuan with a wave of his hand, and they were enough to cope with him until he found the monk who wanted to sit in "Yiju". After all, Wang Yuan wanted peace, and he did not want to use his cultivation to force some
The monks come.
On the opening day, the diners applauded one after another, and word of mouth spread quickly, including some monks who had hidden their cultivation and turned into mortals.
They immediately tasted the greatness of "Ice Wind Spreading Wings", and the entrance turned into bursts of spiritual power. Some monks were very scheming and knew that this was a rare opportunity. They immediately took up their pens and left the words "Yiju",
Then some monks began to follow the trend, and the monks' handwriting was all over the restaurant.
Other restaurants in Mu Bing City were a little restless, and secretly sent their men to look for bad luck, but they disappeared inexplicably.
Finally, the other restaurants also knew that this newly rising "Yiju" was not to be trifled with.
At night, the restaurant was still full of guests, chatting and laughing.
At this time, there was a middle-aged man and a young girl standing outside "Yiyiju". The man was wearing Chinese clothes, with an auspicious waistband, a resolute face, and a faint smile on his lips. The girl beside him was holding his middle-aged man tightly.
The young man's arms looked at "Yiju" with bright eyes, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.
"Father, let's sit here for a while. You see there are so many people inside, it must be delicious." The girl shook the middle-aged man's arm and said coquettishly.
The middle-aged man coughed a few times and said in a low voice: "Little girl, didn't daddy say that you don't want to call me father-in-law when you are outside? If the people hear it, it will cause unnecessary trouble. Do you understand?"
The girl stuck out her little tongue, her delicate appearance was extremely endearing, and she quickly took the middle-aged man's arm and walked into "Yiju".
The area of "Yiju" has doubled, so even if the diners are famous, there are still empty seats.
The waiter stepped forward and helped the middle-aged man and the girl find a seat by the window. The waiter quickly recommended the restaurant's famous dishes to them, including the signature dishes.
The girl was getting more and more surprised. She nodded and asked for whatever the waiter said, with an expression like "I want to taste it all."
The middle-aged man just shook his head with a wry smile, and instead of interrupting the girl, he observed the restaurant.
After the waiter left, the girl saw her father looking out in a daze, and asked curiously: "Dad, what are you looking at?"
"Haha, among you brothers and sisters, you must be the smartest. Daddy will tell you something today that even your mother and queen don't know about."
When the girl heard the words, her eyes immediately widened and she clasped her chin with her hands and listened carefully.
"Dad walked out of Mu Bingcheng back then, climbed up step by step, had his own brothers, made many friends, and began to fight for the world. This fight lasted for thirty-five years. Now that I think about it, I returned to Mu Bingcheng.
Only then did Bingcheng realize that this place is the deepest in my father’s memory.”
The girl's mouth opened slightly, it turned out that her father's hometown was Mu Bingcheng.
"Yiyiju" served the food very quickly. After a while, large and small plates were brought out. The girl was overjoyed. While picking up the food for her father, she tasted it herself, praising how delicious it was from time to time.
The middle-aged man smiled slightly, picked up the wine bottle and was about to pour a glass of wine, but the girl snatched it away: "Dad, the queen mother said you are not allowed to drink."
"Just have a drink. How about a drink? Let dad relieve his boredom." The middle-aged man still looked like a once-in-a-lifetime master and said to the girl with a smile.
The girl smiled slyly and agreed to her father's request. The middle-aged man filled a glass for himself, took a careful sip, admired it, and then drank it.
Outside, a bright moon hung among the stars, shining with moving light.
The middle-aged man's face turned red as soon as he drank a glass of wine. He suddenly raised his head and looked at the night, and said softly: "The dew is white tonight, and the moon is bright in my hometown."
The girl didn't know what kind of homesickness her father contained in these two sentences. Only when she sat in her hometown and looked up at the bright moon did she clearly understand how important her hometown was to the wanderer.
