"Father." The young man in yellow robe calmed down, then turned around and bowed respectfully to the old man, bowed his head and stepped aside.
"You two, please don't be offended by what I said just now." After the old man in yellow robe dismissed the young man, he said very politely to Liu Ming and the others, but there was a trace of undetectable wariness in his eyes.
"Your Excellency must be fellow Taoist Ouyang Kui, right? It's me and I who have taken the liberty to come here. How offensive it is." Liu Ming glanced at the old man in yellow robes, his eyes flickering. This old man turned out to be a monk in the fake alchemy stage.
However, looking at his decrepit appearance, it is obvious that there is no hope of condensing the true elixir in this life.
"I am Ouyang Kui. Since the two Taoist friends are here specially to visit, please come to the village and have a seat." Seeing Liu Ming speaking so politely, the old man in yellow robes slightly became wary in his eyes, and turned sideways and made a gesture.
The action of inviting someone, with a flash of blue light on the door, also became a bit bigger.
"Since fellow Taoist said this, you and I are welcome." Liu Ming nodded with a smile, and immediately flew over with a magic spell.
Shachuer naturally moved and followed him.
As soon as they entered the green light, Liu Ming and the two felt their eyes suddenly light up.
There was still some kind of valley behind the light curtain, but instead, a dense forest appeared in front of them.
Not far away, a small courtyard built of purple wood is located among the green forests.
The crisp sound of birds chirping and chirping of insects comes from all around from time to time. The entire courtyard is surrounded by lush greenery on both sides, giving it a leisurely and profound feeling. It is indeed a good place for seclusion.
Liu Ming looked as if nothing had happened, but his huge spiritual consciousness had already emitted, instantly covering the entire forest.
I searched it several times with my spiritual consciousness, but found nothing strange.
In addition to the old man in yellow robe and the young man in yellow robe, there are still a few people in the courtyard, but their cultivation level is very low, they are only in the spiritual disciple stage.
In addition, there were no traces of any powerful prohibition formations arranged here, which made him feel relieved.
At this moment, a gust of fragrant wind hit his nostrils from behind, but it was Shachuer who came closer.
"You two, please go to the living room and have some spiritual tea." The old man on one side said to the two of them, and he and the young man in yellow robes led the two of them to the courtyard. After entering the courtyard, they walked straight into the front door.
In the lobby.
At this time, the young man in yellow robe did not follow, but stood at the door with a solemn expression.
There were no servants in the lobby. After asking the two of them to sit down, the old man went to the back hall to make two cups of spiritual tea and handed them to Liu Ming and Liu Ming.
Liu Ming smiled and thanked him, then took the cup and placed it beside him.
"The two Taoist friends came to such a remote place to see me. They must have a reason to come. I don't know why? Seeing that they are so young and have cultivation in the crystallization stage. They must be core disciples of the family, I guess.
I have been living in seclusion here for decades. Is there anything else in the family that I can use?" The old man in yellow robe sat down and said with a solemn expression.
"Fellow Taoist Ouyang may have misunderstood. I am Liu Ming, a disciple of the Taiqing Sect. This is Miss Sha Chu'er, who is from the Southern Wasteland." Liu Ming was startled when he heard this, and then chuckled.
"Disciples of the Taiqing Sect, Nanhuang... Aren't you two disciples of the Ouyang family? I think only people from the Ouyang family know about this place, right? I wonder how you two know this place?" After listening to what Liu Ming said, the old man in yellow robe said,
He also became shocked.
"Although Liu is not a child of the Ouyang family, this Miss Sha has some connections with the Ouyang family. It took a while for the two of us to find the whereabouts of fellow Taoist." Liu Ming said with a chuckle and cupped his hands.
.
"Oh? It's good that you two are not from the Ouyang family." Hearing this, the old man in yellow robe let out a breath. It seemed that his whole body immediately relaxed a little.
When the young man standing outside the door heard the conversation between Liu Ming and the old man in yellow robe, his face relaxed, and then he quietly turned around and left.
"Since they are not from the Ouyang family, why did these two Taoist friends come to see me, a reclusive old man?" The old man in yellow robe asked again with interest.
"Fellow Taoist Ouyang, do you know the name Ouyang Ming, right? According to the information the two of us have learned, Taoist Taoist was very close to this person in the past?" Liu Ming finally revealed the purpose of his visit.
"Ouyang Ming, are you two here just to inquire about this matter?" The old man in yellow robe stiffened his hands when he heard this, and his face suddenly turned black. After a long while, he replied coldly.
"Not bad." Liu Ming frowned and said slowly.
"In this case, I have nothing to say to you. Please leave here immediately." The old man in yellow robe suddenly stood up, his face no longer showing any expression.
"Oh, it seems that fellow Taoists are very taboo about this name. However, fellow Taoists, don't worry. It's not too late to listen to Miss Sha's explanation before saying goodbye." Liu Ming smiled calmly.
said.
"Listen to her explanation?" After hearing this, the old man in yellow robes' anger subsided slightly, and a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes.
"Junior Shachuer. Ouyang Ming is my father. I hope that senior can tell this junior about my father's whereabouts." At this time, Shachuer stood up again and said to the old man opposite him with a bow.
"What? You are Ouyang Ming's daughter, how come I have never heard of him before?" The old man in yellow robe was startled, and immediately stared at Sha Chuer, his expression suddenly becoming solemn.
"This junior was born not long after my father left." Shachuer said softly.
"Well, if you say so, you do look somewhat similar to Ouyang Ming, but you don't think you can make me really believe that you are Ouyang Ming's blood with just a few empty words, right?" The old man
After his face changed gloomily and uncertainly for a while, he suddenly exhaled a long breath and said, and at the same time, he exuded a faint spiritual pressure.
Liu Ming, who was on the side, could clearly sense that the mana in the old man's body had been mobilized at this moment. It was obvious that if he disagreed, the other party would take action.
But Liu Ming just smiled slightly and still sat on the chair without moving.
But when Shachuer heard this, he immediately took out a purple token from his body, handed it over, and said very seriously:
"Since I'm here to visit, I can't just talk nonsense. This is a token that my father left for my mother when he left. I can confirm it."
The yellow-robed old man's expression moved slightly, his sleeves flicked, and he immediately rolled the token into his hand, then lowered his head to identify it carefully.
"Yes, this is indeed Ouyang Ming's identity token, but just a dead object is not enough. I have to cast a spell to confirm your bloodline again." After a while, the old man in yellow robe threw the token back.
After looking at Shachuer up and down for a few more times, he said with a somewhat relaxed expression.
"No problem, as long as you can trust the identity of the junior, the senior can just cast the spell." Shachuer agreed without hesitation.
"Very good! I have here a drop of blood essence that Ouyang Ming left back then, so the identification process will be very fast. Then please ask Miss Sha to squeeze out some blood essence on it." Ouyang Kui nodded when he heard this, and immediately singled out.
Turning his hand over, a prismatic array disk suddenly appeared in his hand, with groove-like light silver spiritual patterns faintly visible on the surface.
After hearing the words, Shachuer immediately took a few steps forward, raised her bright arm, opened her mouth, and a crystal wind blade flashed past her wrist, opening an inch-long wound, and a wisp of blood flowed down from it.
It sank into the formation disk and quickly flowed into those pale silver grooves.
"That's enough"
Seeing this, Ouyang Kui nodded with satisfaction, immediately threw the formation disk in front of him, flicked his fingers together, and shot out more than a dozen spells in one breath.
Suddenly, the sporadic array disks began to buzz, and the silver grooves flashed with blood-red light at the same time.
The old man then moved his sleeves and threw a white porcelain bottle into the sky above the array plate, holding a finger slightly empty.
With a "bang" sound, the porcelain bottle burst open, and a drop of black-red blood essence dripped down, but it did not enter the array plate and disappeared.
Then, under the urging of the old man, the array disk began to rotate in mid-air, and blood-red runes emerged from it from time to time, and then turned into dots of bloody light and dissipated.
"receive"
The old man shouted in agreement, grabbed the air with one hand, and the formation plate immediately stopped in the air with a trembling, and then fell into his palm in a flash.
Ouyang Kui lowered his head and carefully examined the flashing bloody spirit patterns on the array plate for a moment, then raised his head and glanced at Shachu'er. Finally, a complicated look appeared on his face, and then he sighed and said:
"It seems true. Miss Sha is really the daughter of my clan brother."
"Senior, I finally believe it. Miss Sha has been living in the Southern Wilderness before. She came to Chen Kingdom recently because she wanted to find the whereabouts of Senior Ouyang Ming. If senior knows, please feel free to teach me." Liu Mingze calmly interjected.
road.
"Whereabouts? Those people in the Ouyang family have been trying to find the whereabouts of Ouyang Ming, but unfortunately they have been searching for so many years and still found nothing?" The old man in yellow robe suddenly sneered and said with a hint of sarcasm.
Liu Ming couldn't help but be startled. Did the other party also know the whereabouts of Ouyang Ming?
When Shachuer heard this, his heart sank.
"Ouyang Ming has been kind to me in the past. Since you are his daughter and you have found your way here, it is natural for me to tell you some things that happened back then." After taking another deep breath, the old man in yellow robe said
He said this with a hint of bitterness.
"I hope senior can teach me!" Shachu'er bit her lips slightly, gently grasped the corners of her skirt with her two jade hands, and said a little nervously.
"Speaking of it, although the Ouyang family is one family, it is also divided into many branches. Our lineage was originally an external branch of the family and was not valued by the family. It was also because of what Ouyang Ming showed.
It is only because of his extraordinary cultivation talent that this lineage has improved. Even back then, it was because of Ouyang Ming that I was able to advance to the crystallization stage later." The old man in yellow robe said as he walked slowly over.
He stood outside the window, looking at the scenery outside the window, and murmured in a daze. ()
