Volume II: Dragon Teng Xijing Chapter 261: Decision
Lu Yao stayed in the room for a whole day and didn't go out, except for eating with everyone during meals, he stayed in the room to cultivate, he had a strange feeling here, he always felt that cultivating here always had a kind of effect of getting twice the result with half the effort, so he cherished every minute and every second here.
The ancestral temple of the Murong family was crowded with people at this time, Murong Hu sat in the middle of a bench in the middle, and there were two old men who were slightly younger than him on the left and right, and the three of them sat there looking like triplets, both in appearance and expression, they were very similar, but the difference was that the other two old men looked to have fewer wrinkles on their faces than Murong Hu.
The three elders sat there, and the other twenty or so juniors were standing around the three, and in front of the three of them was an open space, and in the open space was a small waist-high square table, on which was placed a black cloth package.
Everyone's eyes were basically fixed on the black cloth package, the discussion had not yet begun, the three elders whispered something to each other, and the younger generations rarely saw each other on weekdays, and they only saw each other chatting about some common senses, practice experiences, and so on.
After Murong Hu and the other two old men whispered for a while, they looked up at the juniors standing in front of him, counted, and the people had already arrived, so he stood up and said: "Calling everyone together today is a very important matter, and I have to discuss with you about the matter, I have already spoken to your second and third uncles once, originally they disagreed, but now that things have taken a new turn, I want to bring everyone together and discuss it in person." ”
After speaking, Murong Hu looked at the two old men beside him, and then looked at the expressions of the juniors of the Murong family in front of him, and then told everyone about some details of the conversation between himself and Lu Yao and Lu Yao's requirements, especially the fact that Lu Yao had cured Murong Wen's illness, Murong Hu spoke very carefully, as long as he could think of it, he said it all.
"Wen'er's illness is really cured?" Someone asked in surprise.
"Even if he really cures Wen'er, but our family's martial arts secrets must not be shown to him, in case he has ulterior motives, won't we fall into the net?" There are also people who don't care about the fact that Murong Wen's illness has been cured, and said strongly.
"Second uncle, what is the opinion of the third uncle?" Someone also asked the other two old men.
"That is, let's listen to the opinions of the second and third uncles first. Everyone makes a decision again. Murong Xinyuan stood up at this time and said.
Murong Hu didn't have anything to say, and the old man sitting on his left also stood up and said, "You have heard what your uncle said, and I will also say my opinion." ”
"Originally, I wouldn't agree at all, but the eldest brother told me some things just now, I think it's really necessary for everyone to discuss it here, if it's an ordinary thing, we three old people will be in charge, but this matter is related to the life of our entire Murong family man, we are already on the verge of death, but you are still young, we can't make decisions for you." After the old man finished speaking, he glanced at Murong Hu, and then at the old man sitting on Murong Hu's right hand, and asked, "What do you say, third child?" ”
"The second brother is right." Another old man chimed in.
"Second uncle, you have always been the most opposed to the Murong family's martial arts traditions, not to mention that our martial arts cheats are borrowed by others, what is wrong with you today, how can you believe the words of a young man who has never heard of it?" The young man who strongly objected just now said excitedly.
"Qianyuan, I know what you mean by this, you have been haunted by the fact that your sister was expelled from the house because of stealing the martial arts of the Murong family, how can the second uncle not understand what you mean, but this time things are different from the past, this matter is not a matter of clan rules and ancestral training, but a big matter related to the success or failure of our Murong lineage, I hope everyone here can consider it rationally." The second uncle looked at the emotional young man Murong Qianyuan and said.
"Second uncle, I ......"
"Okay, I know you don't mean to complain, you are a sensible child, the second uncle has watched you grow up for so many years and knows what you mean, so the three of us old men here today do not make their own decisions, just discuss and decide on this matter." The second uncle interrupted Murong Qianyuan's words and said earnestly.
In this way, Murong Qianyuan is not good at saying anything, but he has always been more opposed to this matter, just like when he learned that his sister secretly learned the martial arts of the Murong family, he was the first to stand up and expose it, and he was also the first to support the punishment of his sister by the elders.
Over the years, he has never regretted this matter, although he is very sad to see his sister now married away from home and live a poor life, he still does not regret it, he still has a clear distinction between family affection and the importance of the overall situation, he has been quietly helping his sister's life in private over the years, and he does not let his sister know.
"Let's do it, everyone think about it, there must be a result in today's matter, and after ten minutes, everyone agrees to vote by a show of hands, and the three of us old men also participate in the vote, everyone is equal at this time, and everyone counts one vote." Murong Hu watched everyone keep talking, some for and some against, if it was allowed to go on like this, no matter how much time it was, there would be no result, so he stood up and said.
……
……
Lu Yao was racing against time to cultivate, and the fact was the same as his guess, the effect of cultivating here was indeed wonderful, if his harvest from cultivating in Twin Towers City for a month could only be compared to his cultivation in Xijing City for a week, then his cultivation in this house of the Murong family for one day could be compared to the cultivation harvest of a week in Xijing City, which was simply a very wonderful thing.
But it's wonderful, Lu Yao doesn't have so much leisure to study these at this time, after today, tomorrow as soon as the last two flavors of medicinal materials that are nailed in the mouth of the thief Zhu Lao Jiu in his body arrive, he will leave here, and he really has no suitable reason to stay here, so he has to seize the time now.
There is also a very strange situation in the cultivation here, that is, when Lu Yao was in Xijing City before, he used the wooden attribute things he bought from the antique street to conduct experiments, and every time without exception ended in failure, but here there is a miracle happening, he tried three times, and one of them succeeded.
Whenever he released his golden fire attribute immortal qi to wrap the wood products, according to past experience, the wood products would inevitably become a pile of flying ashes, but here, the small wood products could exude a strong wood attribute aura, although it was still unable to compete with his own golden fire attributes, but at least it would not become a pile of fly ashes at the beginning.
Lu Yao guessed that this place was probably because it was located in Panlong Mountain, the mountain jungle was dense, and the wood attribute aura was already strong, and the Shenlong Wood of the Murong family exuded the strongest wood attribute aura, which was obvious when he saw the white cloth package for the first time, but he was really unconscious at that time, and he had never seen the Shenlong Wood later.
Lu Yao is full of curiosity about Shenlongmu now, but he can't worry about other people's treasures, otherwise he will become a thief like the thief Zhu Lao Jiu.
……
……
"Father, are you really going to make a deal with him?" The discussion in the ancestral temple was over, everyone left, and continued to chat, Murong Xinyuan followed his father and walked towards home.
"Didn't you make it clear just now, there is no free lunch in the world, not to mention that he cured Wen'er's illness, we haven't had time to thank others, if we get the benefits of others in vain, if it is passed on, what face will our Murong family have to go out and walk the rivers and lakes in the future." Murong Hu glanced at his son strangely and said.
"But using Shenlong Wood to trade, isn't it too precious, we have some other treasures at home, just take out one is enough to make people blush, if it really doesn't work, let him go to the Treasure Pavilion to choose one, it's better than using Shenlong Wood to trade!" Murong Xinyuan still said unrelentingly.
"Xin Yuan, when will you understand, things are dead, people are alive, how many years has Shenlong Mu been in our Murong family, no one has ever known how to use it, but how many disasters he has brought to our Murong family over the years, wouldn't it be the best choice if this thing can be traded out in a form of maximizing benefits." Murong Hu said earnestly: "Not to mention that this Divine Dragon Wood has been lost and regained, there is already the credit of Lu Yao, and you can also see that Wen'er's current situation, I think his current martial arts talent is enough to compare any of you, isn't this the credit of Lu Yao?" ”
"Besides, if you think about it, such a young boy has unpredictable abilities, if our Murong family can get in touch with the master behind him, wouldn't it be more than one stone?" Murong Hu continued.
After listening to his father's words, Murong Xinyuan also thought about it in the direction that Murong Hu said, and felt that this was indeed the case, so he lost no time in patting his ass and said: "It's still the father who is far-sighted and takes precautions, and the child has been taught." ”
"In the future, whether the Murong family will be handed over to you to take care of or handed over to Qianyuan to take care of, I don't know yet, you have to learn more, watch more and talk less on weekdays, the most important thing is to have a good relationship with your brothers, I will go to Murong Lang later, see when the two medicinal materials will arrive, and then prepare for tomorrow by the way, if you can handle the relationship with Lu Yao, you may have more chances to win in the future." After Murong Hu finished speaking to Murong Xinyuan, he didn't leave with his head down.
Murong Xinyuan stood in place for a while, and then turned around and left, going to do what his father had explained.
