Chapter 751 Returning to Daqian, old friends reunited
Zhang Yanping wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, looked at A Liang, and asked softly: "A Liang, how long have you been with me?"
A Liang immediately replied: "Master, I am your companion boy. I have been yours since I was three months old and was brought to Zhang's house. In total, it has been nearly fifteen years.
!”
At this time, A Liang recalled every detail of the young master's daily life. The two of them were called master and servant. In fact, they were as close as brothers.
Thinking about it this way, he no longer cared so much about the young master getting the little bloody gourd.
As the young master's companion, if there are any good things, you should give them to the young master first. Isn't this a matter of course?!
Just when A Liang smiled and was about to say something, his expression suddenly froze. He looked down mechanically and saw that his young master's hand had penetrated his heart.
Feeling numb all over his body, he looked at Zhang Yanping. There was no anger in his eyes, only confusion.
As A Liang fell, Zhang Yanping also swayed slightly and fell to his knees.
His expression was dull, and he allowed the soil and blood on the ground to dye his snow-white clothes black and red.
It took a long time before he recovered from his daze and said in a hoarse voice: "Father, are you here?"
Zhang Qinghai walked out from behind the tree and frowned at the scene in front of him. The death of a servant would naturally not catch his eye, but his son's current state made him quite worried.
"What happened?"
Zhang Qinghai asked in a deep voice, he needed to find out what happened.
Zhang Yanping stood up slowly and did not answer the question. Instead, he bowed to Zhang Qinghai and said, "Father, I have never asked you for help in my life. I have something to ask you to do today. Please agree to it."
Zhang Qinghai said nothing and looked at his son quietly.
Zhang Yanping stood up and said seriously: "Please accept A Liang as your adopted son. From now on, I hope he will be my brother! A real brother!!"
Zhang Qinghai was silent. As someone who cares deeply about superiority and inferiority, normally it would be absolutely impossible for him to agree to such a request, but now...
"If this is your request!"
Zhang Yanping nodded firmly to Zhang Qinghai, then leaned over and picked up A Liang's body, muttering to himself: "A Liang, you died because of me. From now on, you are my brother and your parents."
, I will raise it!”
The relationship of more than ten years was certainly not fake, and Zhang Yanping didn’t want to kill A Liang.
However, after getting the bloody gourd, understanding its inheritance, and seeing the majestic back of the supreme being, Zhang Yanping understood that the fewer people who knew about this matter, the better!
Otherwise, the Zhang family, Shuiyun Pavilion, Bibo Island, and even the entire Immortal Island Alliance may be involved and suffer disaster.
Of course it is possible for Ah Liang to keep this secret his whole life, but he must have a grudge in his heart. What if the secret is leaked?!
People's hearts will change!
Zhang Yanping didn't want to gamble.
Call him selfish or hypocritical, at least at the moment when he killed A Liang, the boy from the Zhang family was not just thinking about himself!
Broken Island.
Duoduo hid behind a rock, and the cold seawater flowed over her calves, making her shiver with cold, but she held her breath and did not dare to make any movement.
Perhaps because of her blindness, the sensitivity of her other senses is much higher than that of ordinary people, which allows her to move freely in the dark night when she can't see her fingers.
Therefore, every time late at night, she would come to Qianjiaotan to look for valuable things to make a living.
Thousand Reef Beach is by no means a good place for her. There is a kind of weak sea beast called giant red crab living here.
Of course, being weak is relative. Even the giant red crab that can be dealt with just after entering the blood exchange realm is quite fatal to Duoduo.
After a long time, Duoduo breathed a sigh of relief as she watched the half-meter-long giant crab leave.
She has picked up a lot of shells containing spiritual energy today, and she also unexpectedly got a pearl the size of her thumb, which is a rare and fruitful harvest.
Now we just need to get back safely.
Duoduo has already started fantasizing in her little mind. After going back and selling the harvest this time, she can buy a new apron for Aunt Marin, a new pair of shoes for Uncle Gu Cao, and a few taels of rice wine for the drunkard grandpa...
Just when Duoduo was about to bloom with joy, suddenly, a sound of water waves came from behind.
She subconsciously concentrated, and everything around her suddenly came into her mind...
A few dozen meters away from behind, there was a vague shadow staring at her, and Duoduo could even feel the glare on her back.
Giant red crab?!
Discovered?!
These two thoughts appeared in Duoduo's mind at the same time. She was so excited that the hairs on her body stood up and she ran away.
Although she can walk on flat ground in the Thousand Reefs Beach if she concentrates, this state consumes too much energy and cannot be maintained for long.
It seemed like a long time passed, but in fact it was only a dozen breaths. Duoduo was already exhausted, and the movement behind her was getting closer and closer.
Just when she was already despairing and the memory of this short life flashed back in her mind...
Suddenly, a breath as hot and warm as the sun broke into her perception.
The next moment, she had no time to brake and crashed into it.
The giant red crab looked at the prey wrapped in blood-colored light. He hesitated at first, but then, an even greater desire surged out.
Its eyes turned red, and it seemed to have completely lost its mind, and it rushed towards the prey in a strange state.
"Poof!~"
A line of blood swept across, and the giant red crab instantly became stiff and sluggish. All the colors on its body quickly drained away, leaving only pale color.
When the breeze blows, it turns into countless fine powders and falls into the sea water.
Of course, Duoduo couldn't see all this. At this time, she was holding a small bloody gourd in both hands and fell into a state of sleep.
…………
Tianyuan Prefecture.
Lando sensed the situation in Xihai and looked back slightly, with a smile on his lips.
It is precisely because the people of the West Sea are oppressed that they understand the value of strength, have a stronger desire to become stronger, and understand what struggle is!
It can be said that it is quite suitable for the growth of the Blood Road.
Now that the three boys and girls have obtained the bloody gourd, Lando doesn't know what their future will be like.
Maybe they will soar to the sky with this, or maybe they will be greeted by a sad fall.
But, no problem!
Time will eventually put the correct answer in front of Lando, until then, he just needs to wait patiently!
After entering Tianyuan State, Lando randomly threw two small blood-colored gourds based on his whim, and this time without any restrictions.
Humans, demons, immortals, demons, ghosts...
No matter who you are, as long as you get it, you can use it.
When he set foot on the land of Daqian Empire again, he felt a little emotional.
After more than a hundred years apart, looking back, are we still the same old friends?
For Immortals, even in the Qi-training state where Qi has just been introduced into the body, one can be free from illness and live to the limit of one hundred and fifty years of life.
The foundation can last for 300 years, and the golden elixir can last for 800 years!
It can be said that as one's cultivation improves, one's lifespan can be naturally extended.
But for martial arts, the initial physical training state will not only extend your life, but will also shorten your life due to the overdraft and consumption of the body.
After reaching the blood exchange realm, you will continue to make up for yourself through blood exchanges again and again. However, even a strong person who has nine blood exchanges will only have an average lifespan of one hundred and fifty.
Of course, some magical powers also have the effect of increasing life span, but those are all extra.
Only by reaching the Yin Yuan realm, beginning to rely on the vitality of heaven and earth to nourish oneself, and reborn, can the original shackles be broken.
Therefore, after Lando left for more than a hundred years, he may not have many old friends he knew back then.
Entering Chenjia Village, he followed the familiar smell and was stunned when he raised his eyes.
This turned out to be the small courtyard where he once lived in the clan.
Gently opening the door, I saw an extremely old but energetic old man, tending flowers and grass with a kind face.
After Lando stood quietly for a moment, he called softly: "Third Grandpa!"
Third Grandpa's body trembled, he turned around slowly, and checked with cloudy eyes for a long time before realizing that this was not his imagination.
He pursed his lips for a moment and murmured: "Long'er?"
After a hundred years of separation, my grandson's appearance has not changed at all, as if he left yesterday and returned today.
Lando showed a bright smile and said, "Grandpa Third, I'm back."
The corners of Third Grandpa's eyes were a little moist, and he said happily: "It'll be good to come back! It'll be good to come back!"
When Lando left, the third grandfather was already sixty or seventy years old, and logically speaking, he would not survive today.
However, Lando left behind a lot of elixirs for longevity and health, and because of his relationship, the village chief took extra care of the third grandfather. He no longer had to go hunting in the mountains, so he could enjoy his old age in peace.
Lando's arrival did not alarm the other Chen family members, and the grandfather and grandson had a long chat as before.
Lando briefly told the story of his journey to Dayong, then his worship at the Immortal Sect, and his subsequent travels.
Third Grandpa also talked about some changes in the Chen family over the past hundred years.
The village chief passed away forty years ago, and now the head of the Chen family is the village chief's eldest son.
Baixiang and Lily, Lando's two maids, married two outstanding members of the clan with the help of the village chief shortly after Lando left, and they lived a happy life.
The third grandfather was also invited back to the clan at that time to serve as a physical training instructor for the younger generation of the Chen family, as well as teach some hunting skills.
After chatting for a whole day and night, the two of them stopped talking.
Third Grandpa smiled sadly and said: "Long'er, I know that you are born extraordinary and are destined to fly to the nine heavens. There is nothing to worry about at home. Just go when you need to. Don't stop. You should pursue the pursuit of your destiny." Make your own path!"
Lando was silent for a long time, then smiled and said, "Don't worry, Third Grandpa, I know."
Then, he took out an exquisite blood-colored small gourd and said, "Third Grandpa, please pass this small gourd on to the younger generations of the Chen family who like it."
Third Grandpa didn't ask any further questions, he simply nodded in agreement and put away the small bloody gourd.
Next, Lando did not stay longer, nor did he have any thoughts of interacting with other Chen family members. After bidding farewell to the third grandfather, he left the Chen family.
He has marked the third grandfather with the power of the Styx Blood Sea, so that after the latter dies, he can be led into the Styx Blood Sea and start a new life in another way.
Now the old man still has more than ten years of good life, so there is no need to worry.
The next step is to achieve "harmonious and friendly" exchanges with the martial arts families of the Daqian Empire.
Thinking of this, Lando recalled his good friend from back then...Gao Zhiyuan.
I don’t know what is happening to the latter now.
Thinking of this, Lando headed towards Baling.
The Gao family is almost the de facto ruler in Baling. Even the officials sent by the empire have to look up to the Gao family.
In the courtyard of the Gao family, Gao Zhiyuan was reading the letter in his hand. More than a hundred years of training had transformed the passionate young man into the majestic middle-aged man he is now.
After looking at it carefully for a moment, Gao Zhiyuan was about to pick up the ginseng tea next to him to moisten his throat. As a result, when he raised his eyes, he caught a glimpse of a figure sitting on the guest seat in the study.
This made his eyes suddenly shrink.
You must know that this is the ancestral land of the Gao family. Not only are there many powerful people, but they also have countless supernatural powers and forbidden methods. Even if a martial arts expert in the enlightenment realm wants to break in silently, it is absolutely impossible.
Then this person in front of me...
Almost subconsciously, his martial arts magical powers were about to burst out.
But the next moment, a faint blood-colored light enveloped the entire study, and his movements were completely suppressed in an instant.
While he was in shock, he heard a vaguely familiar voice and chuckled: "After a hundred years of separation, you don't need to welcome me so warmly, right?"
Only then did Gao Zhiyuan see the appearance of the visitor clearly. He was a handsome young man wearing a bloody brocade robe.
Just looking at the patterns on his robes made him, a strong man in the Yin Yuan Realm, feel dizzy.
A hundred years apart?!
Gao Zhiyuan's brain was working rapidly, matching the young man in front of him with his old friends from a hundred years ago, but naturally he found nothing.
But the vague feeling of familiarity made him feel that he might really know the person in front of him.
Suddenly, a flash of lightning flashed through his mind, and an incredible thought came to him. He quickly dug out a jade pendant from his storage bag.
This jade pendant, which had not shown any magic in more than a hundred years and had always been used by him as a way to commemorate his old friends, now shone with wisps of light, echoing the young man in front of him.
Lando nodded slightly at first, then smiled apologetically: "I'm sorry, Brother Gao, I lied to you before. Cheng Kun is just a pseudonym I used to disguise my identity. My real name is... Chen Rulong."
Gao Zhiyuan was stunned for a long time before he said with a wry smile: "Brother Cheng... Chen, you deceived me so hard. When you were beaten to death by the Wang family, did you also fake your death to escape?"
Lando smiled and nodded.
In fact, many people guessed that Lando faked his death and left.
Logically speaking, if we really want to conduct an in-depth investigation, we will hold Lando's introducers, Gao Jiawu and Gao Zhiyuan, accountable.
However, as the two of them are members of the Gao family, they naturally do not worry about this.
The Wang family also acquiesced to this result because they did not want to continue to be a laughing stock due to this incident.
So Lando's 'death' went smoothly that year.
Gao Zhiyuan shook his head slightly, but he didn't mind.
He asked: "So, Brother Chen, why did you come back this time?!"
Lando smiled and said: "First of all, I'm looking for you to reminisce about old times, and secondly..."
