Chapter eight hundred and fifty fifth: cause and effect
After all, the Liu family is just a family. It does not occupy an extremely large area like a large mountain gate. The layout of various buildings is still very compact. Liu Wei led Qingyang through the house and through the courtyard. They walked for several hours before arriving at the back.
A very elegant little courtyard.
The courtyard is very small and does not look like the residence of an important person. But as soon as Qingyang walked in, he was swept by several divine thoughts. One of them even had the aura of a golden elixir monk. It was obvious that the place was heavily guarded and the Liu family was extremely important.
of a place.
As if she was afraid that Qingyang would be careless, Liu Wei, who was next to her, explained: "Because we have to be cautious about certain things, so we ask Master Qingyang's forgiveness. You will know the reason when you go in."
Qingyang guessed that there are only two reasons for this situation. Either this is a forbidden area where the Liu family collects valuable treasures, or something big happened to the Liu family and they have to be so cautious. His relationship with the Liu family is not that good yet, so it is impossible to just
Come and show yourself some valuable treasures, then the most likely possibility is that something big happened to the Liu family.
The last time Keqing Danwang tested the Liu family, he still didn't arrive. In recent days, people from the Liu family rarely appeared in Wantong Pavilion. So what happened?
Just when Qingyang was puzzled, Liu Wei had already led Qingyang into one of the rooms. The layout of the room was very simple. There was a bed at the end. Through the curtain, you could vaguely see the person lying on the bed.
There was an old man sitting next to a set of tables and chairs outside, and a fourth-level Jindan monk was standing by the table with a frown on his face, as if he was thinking about something.
This middle-aged man Qingyang has seen him. Last time he accompanied King Liu Dan to attend the assessment of King Dan, the guest of Wantong Pavilion. He was sitting next to King Liu Dan. He should be an important figure in the Liu family.
Seeing the middle-aged man, Liu Wei quickly stepped forward and said: "Father, Master Qingyang is here."
Qingyang stayed in Wantong Pavilion for several days and got to know some of the main characters of the three families in Wantong Pavilion. When Liu Wei called each other his father, Qingyang knew that the person in front of him should be Liu Linyuan, the eldest son of King Liu Dan.
, is also the next head of the Liu family.
Seeing that the other party was still looking at him up and down, Qingyang cupped his hands and said, "I have met Senior Liu."
Liu Linyuan nodded and was about to speak when an old voice suddenly came from the room and said, "Is Master Qingyang here? Bring him here."
The voice was very familiar, it was King Liu Dan, but there was an oldness and weakness in this voice, which was completely different from the previous King Liu Dan who had convinced the heads of the Guiyang family as soon as he appeared.
Qingyang looked up and saw that the old man on the bed inside happened to be sitting up. He had a white beard and white hair, a medium build, and a slender appearance. Who else could he be if he wasn't King Liu Dan?
However, when he saw King Liu Dan clearly, Qingyang was also shocked. Although he was still the same person, his mental state was completely different. At that time, King Liu Dan was a superior late Jin Dan senior, and now
King Liu Dan is like an ordinary old man in the countryside, with an old face, a depressed spirit, no momentum at all, and the whole person looks extremely weak.
As if feeling Qingyang's doubtful gaze, King Liu Dan smiled and said: "You should be surprised to see me in this situation, right? This is the result of taking Qingyang Alchemist's Liji Bushou Pill. If not, I would
I’m afraid I don’t even have the energy to meet Master Qingyang.”
The senior who was a high-ranking late-stage Jindan before became like this in just a few days, which made Qingyang very puzzled. Could it be that in these short few days, some huge changes happened to the Liu family? Qingyang
Surprised: "Why is this?"
King Liu Dan calmed down for a while and said: "It's a long story at this time. If Master Qingyang is willing to listen, I will ask Wei'er to tell you the ins and outs."
Liu Linyuan seemed to have a different opinion, and said quickly: "Father, this matter is of great importance, so it is better to be more cautious..."
King Liu Dan waved his hand and said: "Alchemist Qingyang is not considered an outsider, not to mention that we still need help from him. It would be better to tell the truth about these matters."
Seeing what his father had said, Liu Linyuan could only nod helplessly, then walked out of the door and warned the guards outside a few times that no one was allowed to get close. Then he closed the protective formation around the room and came again.
Go to King Liu Dan.
At this time, Liu Wei had already organized her language and began to talk about the causes and consequences. Qingyang quickly figured out the whole story. When King Liu Dan was young, he accidentally damaged his foundation and affected his lifespan. Only recently did he realize that his time is running out.
The Liu family was caught off guard.
In order for the two generations to hand over smoothly and not damage the Liu family's interests in Wantong Pavilion, the Liu family concealed the matter from the outside world. However, the paper could not suppress the fire. The Guiyang family still saw some clues, so they
Use various means to test.
King Liu Dan could not be in charge of the affairs of the Danyuan, and the affairs of the Danyuan were naturally delayed. The Guiyang family used this as a breakthrough to seize power in Wantong Pavilion. Whether it was the power of the Danyuan being taken away, or the fact that the Liu family was aware of the true and false of the Liu family, the Guiyang family
The two families will definitely continue their efforts to completely suppress the Liu family.
To solve this situation, we can only use a two-pronged approach. First, find someone to replace King Liu Dan so that the power of the Liu family will not be lost. Second, King Liu Dan can show his face intact to break the rumors. However, King Liu Dan’s appearance is relatively simple and ready-made.
The alchemist is easy to find.
And Qingyang appeared just at this moment. Qingyang had alchemy skills that were no less than those of the Quasi-Alchemy King, and he had just arrived without any background, so he was naturally regarded as a life-saving straw by Liu Wei. The Liu family did not have much hope for Qingyang, that is,
Treating a dead horse as a living horse doctor, because the Liu family can no longer afford to delay, and the Guiyang family will not give them any more time to delay.
With Qingyang, the representative of the Liu family, participating in the Keqing Pill King test, the problem in this regard has been temporarily solved. However, Liu Dan King has not shown up for a long time, and it still cannot dispel the suspicion of the Guiyang family. Fortunately, Liu Dan King has excellent alchemy skills.
, quickly thought of a solution, and managed to get a forbidden elixir that could increase the body's potential. He temporarily concealed his dying state and managed to hold on for eight or nine days without being noticed.
flaw.
After a game, Qingyang, who was not particularly optimistic about the Liu family, actually performed beyond his level and won the final victory. Even the Jade Book Alchemist and the Bitter Bamboo Alchemist in the Golden Elixir Realm were no match for him, and he became the director of the Alchemy Academy of Wantong Pavilion.
He Keqing Danwang, this was beyond everyone's expectations, including the Liu family, it was a complete surprise for them.
But on the other side, because King Liu Dan took the forbidden elixir, the potential in his body was completely exhausted. His already approaching lifespan was even worse, almost to the point where he was almost exhausted. Fortunately, he had Qingyang's pill.
Li Ji Bu Shou Wan prevented the situation from worsening.
