Chapter 34: The Heart of a Wolf and the Lungs of a Dog
"Qin Jinfeng, that animal, I quietly called him here to entrust him with the secret of the 'trapped beast cage', because I have great trust in him. And this animal reported to me the changes in the Qin family in the past four years, saying that Zhengxing's grandson Mo'er has been stagnant in cultivation, and there is no successor to the patriarch, so he needs to reconsider the ownership of the patriarch's position, and hopes that I will come forward and let Qin Yide take over the patriarch's position. ”
"Qin Yide's kid has a few catties and taels, I know very well, how can he compare to Zhengxing's talent. In addition, Zhengxing is still in charge of the position of patriarch, and let me come forward to replace the patriarch, such a request is unreasonable, and I naturally cannot agree. ”
"However, Qin Jinfeng's animal would make such a request, and I could understand it at the time. After all, back then, Qin Jinfeng was old and Zhengxing was young, and in terms of the eldest and youngest, the position of the head of the Qin family should have been sat by Qin Jinfeng. At that time, Mo'er's cultivation was stagnant, and the patriarch would inevitably gradually decline after a year. Such a change naturally gave Qin Jinfeng's animal hope. ”
So, I rejected the animal's request and reprimanded him. However, considering that what the animal said at that time was not completely unreasonable, he made a promise that if the patriarch line declined in the future, I would support the elder line and let the grandson of the beast take over the position of the head of the Qin family. ”
"After explaining all this, I immediately went into retreat. It's also my fault that I was so anxious to break through that I didn't notice the strangeness of the animal. ”
"Until one day, in the middle of my retreat, the animal suddenly appeared. Pretending to have come to visit me, he took advantage of my unpreparedness to severely wound me, piercing my limbs and imprisoning me here with chains that had been made of a hundred cracks and thousands of refinements. ”
"When the beast was leaving, he threatened to wait until he killed the patriarch and his family, and then he would carry the head of Zhengxing's grandson to visit me. ”
"I'm so angry, I'm so hateful! I have no eyes, and I actually entrust the secret affairs of the Qin family to such a thief, I am really ashamed of the ancestors of the Qin family......
The mournful shouts continued to echo in the hall, and Elder Taishang's face suddenly flushed, and a mouthful of blood spurted out, obviously his heart was extremely agitated.
"Elder Taishang, don't get excited, you are the mainstay of the Qin family, you must not have anything to do!" Deacon Ding's eyes were red, and he continued to exhort.
"The mainstay? I look like this now, my limbs are all gone, my strength has been greatly reduced, I mistakenly believe in thieves, what qualifications do I have to say that I am the mainstay of the Qin family?" Elder Taishang laughed sadly, tears of remorse slid from the corners of his eyes.
Not far away, looking at this crazy old man, a trace of sadness flashed in Qin Mo's eyes, the reason why he speculated that Elder Taishang was probably imprisoned here was because of an incident in his previous life.
In the previous life, not only was the town burned and destroyed in the dark flames, but even a corner of Wanren Mountain was also burned, and a strange ruin was also exposed. Later, someone searched in the ruins, and in this ruin, the remains of some demon beasts were found, and at the same time, there was a human corpse, whose limbs were pierced, and the death was extremely miserable, and it was suspected that an elder of the Qin family.
Such rumors were heard by Qin Mo from time to time, so he had some impressions, but he was wandering around at that time, and he couldn't verify them.
A few days ago, when sorting out the manuscripts of the ancestors, which talked about another hidden place of the family - the "trapped beast cage", the first generation of patriarch Qin Qishuo left a reminder that the "trapped beast cage" is of great importance, and each generation of the descendants of the Qin family is best passed on by word of mouth, and only one person knows.
Back then, when Qin Qishuo was seriously injured and died, he told the secret of the "trapped beast cage" to the great elder of the Qin family at that time.
From this, it can be inferred that the secret of the "trapped beast cage" must be in the hands of the previous Great Elder, that is, the Supreme Elder.
And the location of the "Trapped Beast Cage" was the area of the corner of Wanren Mountain that had been destroyed in his previous life, Qin Mo was shocked and had a speculation, could it be that the corpse in his previous life was actually the Supreme Elder who had never heard from him?
In fact, just as Qin Mo had guessed before, however, he didn't expect that the process of Elder Taishang being imprisoned here would be so tortuous and shocking.
While he was pondering, Qin Mo suddenly heard an angry shout, only to see Elder Taishang with an angry face, pointing at Deacon Ding, and shouting: "Deacon Ding, the location of the 'trapped beast cage' has always been known only to the elders of the clan, how did you come here?
"No, no, Elder Taishang, did you misunderstand?"
Deacon Ding hurriedly shook his head, denied it again and again, and suddenly remembered Qin Mo, and quickly turned his head, "Young Master Mo, come and help explain." ”
"Young Master Mo, could it be Mo'er......?"
Supreme Elder Huo Ran raised his head and looked at the black-haired young man not far away, his lips trembling and squirming, trying to recognize Qin Mo's appearance.
Stepping forward, Qin Mo said softly: "Elder Taishang, a few days ago, during the 'Qi Penetration' ceremony, I accidentally found the manuscript of the ancestor in the family cemetery. So, at night with Deacon Ding, I wanted to come here to have a look, but I didn't think of it......"
As he spoke, he took out a page of the structural diagram from the manuscript and handed it over.
"It's ...... , it turned out to be the autograph of the ancestors. ”
Holding this page of manuscript, Elder Taishang's hands trembled, and he finally burst into tears, "Mo'er, I'm sorry for you, I'm sorry for your grandfather, I'm a sinner of the Qin family!"
"Elder Taishang, you don't have to worry, just get you out. If Qin Jinfeng's crime is announced to the public, the Qin family will definitely attack him in groups and eradicate the animal in one fell swoop. ”
Deacon Ding gritted his teeth and said, grabbed a chain violently, moved his palm like a knife, and slashed down.
With a bang, the chain shook, but it was not damaged at all, but Deacon Ding's palm cracked, and blood flowed out.
Elder Taishang sighed and said, "Deacon Ding, don't waste your efforts, this chain is forged by a hundred cracks and thousands of steels, and it can only be cut off unless it is a spirit level mid-level weapon." Besides, even if you cut the chains and get me out, it won't help. ”
"You also said just now, that livestock layout has been in place for many years, and sixty percent of the Qin family's high-level leaders have fallen to him, and he has also received the full support of the Huo family. If I still have the strength, after I get out, I may be able to turn the situation around. But now, my strength is at most at the level of a martial artist, so even if the crimes of that beast are made public, what can I do?"
Closing his eyes, Elder Taishang's face was gloomy, revealing a look of despair: "In the final analysis, in the Ancient Continent, force is everything, and only the strong have the right to speak." ”
Deacon Ding's eyes were bloodshot and red, and he clutched the chains so hard that he wanted to tear them off, and blood kept flowing from his fingers.
Sonor!
Qin Mo took out the four-foot Qingfeng from the treasure bag, the sword was like a Hong, and the cold air was pressing. With a wave of succession, four sword lights swept up, and the four chains broke in response.
Whoa...... , The chains made of hundreds of cracks and thousands of steels have been scattered all over the place, and Elder Taishang and Deacon Ding are all stunned, and they have not yet reacted to what happened.
"This sword, could it be the ancestor's sword!?" Elder Taishang couldn't help but exclaim, incredulous.
Deacon Ding also showed an incredible expression, staring at the four-foot Qingfeng, identifying the authenticity of the source of this long sword.
All the children of the Qin family were too familiar with the appearance of the sword in Qin Mo's hand. Because the statue of the ancestor Qin Qishuo, located on the Qinjia Square, has been a hundred years old, and he remembers the ancestor's four-foot sword clearly.
This four-foot green blade, the sword is like a rainbow, like a bend of autumn water, exuding a cold air. It can cut through the chains of a hundred cracks and thousands of steels, and it must be a spirit-level mid-level treasure.
Such a sword, even if Qin Mo denied that it was the ancestor's sword, Elder Taishang and Deacon Ding would not believe it.
"The sword of the Patriarch, together with his manuscript. Qin Mo said.
"Thanks to my ancestors, I was able to regain my freedom. It's a pity that my strength has been greatly damaged, and it doesn't help the Qin family's current situation, Mo'er, I hope you don't blame me. ”
Elder Taishang shook his head and sighed, endured the severe pain, and pulled away the chains worn on his limbs, but there was no joy in his expression.
Originally, being able to get out of captivity was something that Elder Taishang dreamed of, but now, this old man was becoming more and more lost.
In the past, Elder Taishang was a master of burning the town, and the head of the Qin family, but at this moment, he was reduced to this point, and such a gap was indeed unbearable for him.
"Elder Taishang, you don't have to worry, now that Qin Jinfeng's bastard is powerful, you first look for a place to cultivate, wait until you recover your strength, and then settle accounts with that beast. Deacon Ding persuaded repeatedly.
"It's not easy to regain my strength, I'm old, and it's almost impossible to recover to the peak of cultivation. Elder Taishang smiled bitterly, he knew that Deacon Ding was comforting himself.
"Not necessarily. ”
Under the surprised gaze of the two old men, Qin Mo took out a box, boxy, and didn't know what was inside.
Syllable!
The box opened, and a strange fragrance gushed out, instantly filling the entire hall, and Elder Taishang took a sip, and immediately felt that his qi and blood were much smoother.
"This, this is ......"
