Chen Mansion is located on the edge of Qingzhufang.
Quiet, lonely!
This is Chen Xiu's only feeling.
He thought of the warning words of the old man on the street when he walked past the door: "The Chen family is like a ghost. Except for family banquets, almost all the family disciples live outside!"
"Young man, you'd better not go in."
It seems like there is a dead world behind the heavy iron door.
Chen Xiu's palm slowly fell on the door without using any force yet.
There was a "creak" sound.
The mottled iron door slowly opened.
What comes into view is a desolate and dilapidated scene.
Dead trees and grass, and crows hovering over the dead trees!
Chen Xiu stepped into it.
In an instant, an inexplicable dark wind howled.
He raised his head slightly and saw that the sky was still sunny and it was mid-morning.
But walking among this huge mansion, it felt extremely lonely.
I walked carefully along the way, the only sound echoing in the space was my own footsteps!
The only building is an ancient ancestral hall!
The door of the ancestral hall was closed, and guarded at the door were two tall guards wearing black armor, with only a pair of eyes exposed.
Their auras were obscured by armor, but their eyes were as dark as ink, empty and lonely, as if they were lifeless.
As he got closer, two cold evil spirits shot up into the sky.
Blue flames lit up in the guards' eyes!
锔——
The long black knife was slightly tilted horizontally.
A flash of brilliance like fire ignited the long knife.
Flame-like patterns are engraved on the blade, and the whole body is as crystal clear as agate, with red light flashing.
The long sword turned into nine feet.
Information emerged in Chen Xiu's heart:
[Tribute: Hongyun Town Evil Sword (Kaifeng)]
[Assessment: Second Grade (Extreme)]
[Comment: The attached fire copper at the edge of the molten metal is forged, and it is also integrated with the black iron that the eminent monk chanted about the seventy-seven forty-nine days! It looks simple, but it contains the fire breath of melting gold and iron, which is good at driving away evil spirits!]
[Gift: Jiuyao Spirit (Part 1)]
【Refining or not?】
The Hongyun Suppressing Evil Sword was completely unsealed through the refinement of Gang Qi!
Chen Xiu roared and rushed out to meet the two figures.
The red blade in his hand flashed with light, and he slashed out with one strike.
The brilliant flame is like the rising sun, pure and strong!
The golden fire broke out in the darkness and coldness, swallowing up the two figures in an instant.
boom!
Violent flames splashed down on the ground.
In the hurricane, the fire gradually dimmed.
The two figures gradually disappeared as the flames dissipated.
"How could it be, there aren't even corpses?"
Chen Xiu's expression suddenly changed, and an idea came to his mind: They are not human beings!
In other words, there is no living person in the huge Chen family!
boom!
Chen Xiu kicked open the door of the ancestral hall!
He suddenly felt a chill, as if he had stepped into a mausoleum that had been built for many years.
At this moment, what appears in front of you are many long tables.
The long table is filled with black-bottomed tablets, densely packed.
The names of each generation of Chen family disciples are written on them, as if pairs of dark pupils are peering into them, making people feel inexplicably chilled and frightened.
Suddenly, his eyes stopped.
The central spiritual tablet is covered with a light white cloth, hiding the font.
Chen Xiu opened it, and the bloody font came into view:
"Chen's clan split, Chen Xiu was possessed by cold, and died at the age of seventeen!"
He thought of what Master Li said back then.
In the eyes of the Chen family, their orders are already destined.
"How is it? Are you surprised?"
A slightly frivolous voice sounded, and Chen Xiu looked back slightly, it was Chen Wu.
At this moment, he still looked like a Confucian scholar in blue shirt, but he had an added murderous intent.
"After July 15th, I discovered that you, who should have died, are still alive." Chen Wuguai smiled: "So I concealed this matter and did not tell those old immortals."
"Now it seems that I made the right bet."
Chen Xiu raised his sword slightly and looked indifferently: "Then what?"
"Are you interested in working with me to destroy the Chen family?" Chen Wu said with a half-smile: "After all, whether it's you or me, the Chen family will never let go."
snort.
Chen Xiu snorted coldly and said calmly: "I have already set up a dragnet outside the Chen Mansion. Why should I cooperate with you?"
"Oh, don't you know?"
Chen Wu sneered, his face full of mockery: "The Chen family of Tianye Mansion only raises fish for others. Only by cooperating with me can you be temporarily safe!!"
What's the meaning?
Chen Xiu frowned slightly and said coldly: "I don't like playing riddles."
Chen Wu walked into the ancestral hall unsteadily, and aimed a sword at the back of the ancestral hall!
Boom!
The ancestral hall collapsed.
What caught Chen Xiu's eyes was a huge cemetery.
The whole place was pitch black, and endless coffins were piled up randomly.
Chen Xiu slowly stepped into it and immediately felt an extreme cold power.
It’s almost the same origin in his body!
Evil, cold!
In an instant, billowing golden light erupted from Chen Xiu's body, and his whole body was like gold, turning into a golden Arhat!
"Buddhist Arhat's golden body, no wonder you can survive."
Chen Wu seemed a little surprised, pointing to the coffins in the field, and slowly said: "Do you feel it? The endless cold evil energy! Like you, everyone buried here is born with cold poison!"
What?
Even Chen Xiu's face changed slightly at this moment.
How come there are so many?
"In ancient secrets, have you ever heard of the so-called scapegoat?"
Chen Wu spoke playfully, with endless coldness in his eyes: "You and I are both scapegoats in the world! There is a secret method in ancient times. At the cost of the sinister poison of the netherworld, we can exchange the ancient gods and demons for supreme talents!"
"Then at the age of seventeen, your life will be returned to the gods and demons."
"Many children of big families want talents, but they don't want cold poison, and they don't want death!"
"What should we do? Then raise fish!"
"They enjoy their talents, we are responsible for bearing the cold poison of the netherworld!"
Chen Xiu only felt absurd and filled with anger.
Your life is life, but mine is not?
What made Chen Xiu even more unhappy was this feeling of powerlessness that he could not control his own destiny!
"See over there?"
Chen Xiu followed Chen Wu's gaze.
In the distance, there is a slightly tall solitary peak.
On the top of the peak, there are four bronze coffins that give people an extremely heavy feeling.
They are all wrapped in thick purple-black chains.
On the lid is a black spiritual tablet that looks like the night sky.
Vaguely visible are "Chen Yi", "Chen Er", "Chen San", and "Chen Si"!
"These are the four elders of the Chen family. For several generations, they have always been in control of the Chen family, and they will always be them!"
Saying that, Chen Wu sneered: "Now, do you know why I am called Chen Wu? Because, to the Chen family, we are just tools, and our names are just code names! The kind that are thrown away after use!!"
Chen Xiu's eyes were quite calm and he said indifferently: "I only care about what benefits I will gain by killing these old immortals!"
"It's very simple."
Chen Wu grinned, his face gloomy: "At least, you can find the guy who will make you a scapegoat!"
"That's not bad."
Chen Xiu slowly raised his head.
On top of the solitary peak, an old man's figure with white eyes towered down!
