Chapter 3 Let Me Go
Mu Cangshan, like everyone in the Mu family, didn't expect that this gray-clothed man not only had a treasure talisman, but also a vajra talisman. This vajra spirit rune is to inject a golden defense spell into the spirit rune, and when released, it can form a layer of metallic body protection aura outside the body, which is to make up for the lack of defense of metallic monks who specialize in strong attacks, and it can be regarded as rare in the spirit rune, at least, it is rare to see in those small families of cultivating immortals.
This method of storing a spell with a spirit rune has an advantage, that is, it can be instantaneous, that is, the spell in the spirit rune can be activated in an instant as long as it is activated with spiritual power, instead of controlling the spiritual power to travel a certain line in the body like the monk when he releases the spell, and accumulating enough power to send it out.
Of course, this kind of spirit rune also has a flaw, that is, the stored spiritual power is limited, and when the spiritual power is exhausted, the magic power will disappear, which is a one-time consumable.
Just when everyone was stunned, they saw that the gray-clothed man also pinched a law decision with both hands, and there were words in his mouth. Although the spiky vines were still stabbing wildly, they were all blocked by the white light around him, and they couldn't hurt him in the slightest.
I saw that the silver long sword that fell at the foot of Mu Cang Mountain suddenly rose from the ground on its own and shot towards the door of Mu Cang Mountain.
Mu Cangshan is also experienced, although under the consternation, he also noticed the enemy's sneak attack, and his body jumped backwards violently.
The speed of the long sword was so fast, how could it be dodged with a leap, turning into a spirit and chasing Mu Cangshan, and at the same time it was divided into three, attacking the upper, middle and lower three roads.
Mu Cangshan's body was flying into the air at this moment, the long sword had already reached his body, and he couldn't borrow his strength in the air, he struggled to twist his body, dodging two handles, and the third long sword "poof" sounded, hitting the left shoulder.
Everyone in the Mu family who was watching the battle let out an exclamation - "Ah"
Mu Qing also woke up violently from his previous preoccupation at this moment, and there was a palpitation in his heart: Grandpa lost, this gray-clothed man is really powerful!
Mu Cangshan fell to the ground without blood, and a mouthful of blood spurted out of his mouth, obviously this long sword entered the body, not only hurting his shoulder, but also hurting his viscera meridians. At this time, the vines that erupted from the ground had completely disappeared without the support of Mu Cangshan's spiritual power, and the wooden sword slowly loomed, quietly inserted on the ground.
Everyone in the Mu family was hindered by the rules of this immortal family's fighting competition, although they saw Mu Cangshan fall to the ground, before they said to admit defeat, no one dared to step forward.
Mu Qing didn't understand those rules, so she squeezed out of the crowd and ran towards Mu Cangshan, shouting: "Grandpa, grandpa, are you okay?" β
The gray-clothed man walked forward slowly, walked in front of Mu Cangshan, and the white light on his body slowly disappeared. He snorted coldly, and with a decisive move, the three long swords gathered in his hand, and turned into one in his hand, and the tip of the sword pointed at Mu Cangshan, and said, "Old man Mu, how does my Silver Snake Phantom Sword taste?"
Mu Cangshan's face was blue, and he stared at the gray-clothed man angrily: "You, you are not from the Diao family, who are you? Why don't you dare to show your face?"
The man in gray laughed and said, "It doesn't matter who I am, the important thing is that I won." β
Mu Cangshan said: "Your cultivation of the golden system is so profound, the Diao family can invite you here, it seems that you are determined to win! However, you can only win me with the Vajra Fu, and you can have a few spirit runes like the Vajra Fu!"
Mu Cangshan's words seem to be revenge for his defeat, but in fact, he is also a temptation, if this person still has such a spiritual rune, I am afraid that the Mu family will be in great trouble today.
The man in gray also grasped this point instantly, and sneered: "Old man Mu, you don't have to test me, I can win you a game, I won't make another move today, according to the previous bet, you hand over the proton, and we will compare next time." β
Mu Cangshan secretly settled in his heart, and he didn't say anything more, only snorted.
At this moment, everyone in the Mu family saw that the two had stopped, and the other two old men had already arrived in front of Mu Cangshan, and Mu Qing also ran to hold Mu Cangshan, and said eagerly: "Grandpa, are you okay?"
Mu Cangshan looked at Mu Qing, let out a sigh and said, "Good grandson, grandpa is fine, he can't die!"
Mu Qing went to cover the wound on Mu Cangshan's shoulder, and said: "This person's exercises just now seem to be able to restrain our Mu family's exercises, and grandpa shouldn't disperse his spiritual power to release that kind of large-scale technique, so that he will be more powerful." β
Mu Cangshan had actually transferred the spiritual power in his body, sealed the wound, and the blood was no longer gushing out, seeing that Mu Qing cared so much about himself, he was relieved, but when he heard Mu Qing say this, he couldn't help frowning, stared at Mu Qing for a moment, and then said: "What Sun Er said is right, it was grandpa who was careless." β
At this moment, the old man in the cloud seemed to be about to turn around and leave, and when he heard what Mu Qing said, he couldn't help but stop again, looked down with interest, and said to himself: "This little doll understands better than that stupid person." Hmph!"
He snorted, and with a wave of his sleeves, a white mist was rolled up, and his figure slowly disappeared......
......
Everyone in the Lingmu Valley naturally didn't know that there were still people watching the battle above their heads, and at this moment, Mu Cangshan had slowly stood up, pulling Mu Qing with one hand, and making a move towards the wooden sword on the ground with the other, and the wooden sword flew back into his sleeve......
Diao Man, who was watching the battle from the sidelines, suddenly spoke: "Old man Mu, for three days, I will stay at the mouth of the valley, and I will come to mention someone in three days, I don't think you will miss the appointment." With that, he let out a wild laugh and retreated out of the valley with the horse.
The silver sword in the gray-clothed man's hand shone brightly, turned into a spirit rune, stuffed it into his waist, and followed.
......
It's night.
Seventy or eighty men and women of the Mu family gathered in a big room, and three people sat in the middle, it was Mu Cangshan, the head of the Mu family, and his fourth brother Mu Canghai and sixth brother Mu Cangqiong.
For a long time, no one spoke, and the atmosphere was solemn to the extreme.
Everyone knows in their hearts that this clan meeting is to discuss which junior to send to be a proton. This Diao family said very well, saying that the proton would be returned in a year, but after all, it was ill-intentioned, and no one dared to guarantee that there would be a chance of survival.
Or the sixth Mu Cangqiong was anxious, and spoke first: "Big brother, do you really want to send a child to be a proton?"
Mu Cangshan's skin was already pale, and he was injured today and vomited blood, but at this moment, his face was as white as paper, and he said in a deep voice: "In order to have a year, this proton must still be sent." β
Mu Canghai, the fourth elder on the side, also sighed and said, "It would be nice if the third brother was here, he is better than our talents, and it is estimated that his cultivation has far surpassed us now." β
Mu Cangqiong said: "Fourth, you are talking nonsense, the third brother has been away from the clan for a hundred years, and there is no news!
Mu Canghai sighed again, ignoring Mu Cangqiong, but said: "Big brother, who is this sent to be a proton, and you still want your family master to have an idea." β
Mu Cangshan looked solemnly, looked at those sons and nephews, and saw that everyone was bowing their heads and saying nothing, as the head of the family, he naturally understood the thoughts of these sons and nephews, and no one wanted to send their children into the tiger's mouth.
Mu Canghai waited for a long time, and when he saw that the eldest brother didn't speak, he said: "Big brother, I think we should choose a child with the worst qualifications, which is the most beneficial to our Mu family, in case...... That won't have much impact on the Mu family's inheritance in the future. β
Mu Cangshan's expression tightened, he looked at Mu Canghai, and before he could speak, he only heard Mu Cangqiong say: "I said the fourth, even if you don't like Qing'er, you have to think about the eldest brother, the eldest brother is the one who is the grandson, you have the most grandchildren on your knees, I think you should choose your family!"
Mu Canghai smiled awkwardly and said, "Big brother, sixth brother, whose grandsons are all members of the Mu family, and they are all the bloodlines of the Mu family, I am thinking about the overall situation." I didn't say let Qing'er go, although Qing'er will be fifteen years old soon, and there is no possibility of enlightenment, but, but I didn't say let Qing'er go. β
Mu Cangqiong suddenly became anxious, slapped the chair and stood up, and said: "Fourth, you have been clever since you were a child, what kind of tricks are you playing in front of your children and grandchildren when you are old!"
Mu Canghai was also a little annoyed, stood up, and said: "Sixth, I think you are getting older and more ignorant, do you know what the overall situation is, do you know the trade-offs!"
"That's it!"
Mu Cangshan finally spoke, and said in a deep voice: "I see this, we have sixteen grandchildren under our knees, and we will draw lots." β
Mu Canghai was stunned for a moment and said, "Big brother, you ......"
As he spoke, he looked at the daughters-in-law in the hall.
I saw a middle-aged woman slowly get up, bow slightly, and say: "Dad, there is only one Dongzi in my family, and he is only nine years old, if I catch him, then I ...... I ......," she said, and two lines of tears flowed down her face.
Immediately after that, several more women got up and spoke:
"Patriarch, my family Min'er has been weak since she was a child, and I'm afraid it will be difficult to come back this time......"
"Uncle, although my family has two sons, but they have been timid since they were children, and they have never even been to the back mountain, if they are allowed to go, the concubine is worried that they will be scared stupid in a few days, and they will become waste......rs if they can be sent back."
Mu Qing was sitting in the back row next to his mother at the moment, he naturally knew in his heart that what the fourth grandfather was referring to before, and saw these aunts crying one by one, and peeked at himself from time to time, which meant that he was the most suitable person, he couldn't help but laugh miserably in his heart, and at the same time gave birth to a strong sense of sadness:
HeyβI'm an unenlightened waste, but now I'm a sweetheart. Ridiculous, ridiculous.
Mu Qing looked at his father beside him, and saw him sitting with a dignified face, while the mother beside him looked indifferent, looking at these concubines crying with a smile.
Suddenly, the arm was grabbed suddenly, it turned out to be Ling'er, only to hear Ling'er whisper: "Brother Qing, why are these aunts crying?
Mu Qing looked at Ling'er's immature face and said, "Now our family needs to send a child to complete a very, very important task, but this task is very dangerous, and everyone is reluctant to go, so these aunts will cry, and this child is called Proton." β
Ling'er nodded, and said, "Brother Qing, I'm not afraid of danger, can I do it?"
Mu Qing was suddenly stunned, looking at Ling'er's clear eyes, a thought suddenly flashed in her heart: What if Ling'er was caught by lots? Do you want a five-and-a-half-year-old girl like her to take this risk? What should she do if he is wronged? What should she do if she cries? What should I do if she is hungry? What should I do if she is beaten?
This is my little sister!
Didn't I say I wanted to protect her? Wasn't I her best green brother?
As soon as this thought rose, Mu Qing immediately thought that since he was already a waste person to the family, he would be sent away to live a mortal life in a year, and it would definitely be a mediocre life, why not ......
At this moment, Ling Hulan also noticed that her son's expression was a little wrong, and her heart flashed, and she immediately guessed a few points, and was about to reach out to pull Mu Qing, but it was still a step too late!
Mu Qing had already stood up suddenly, and said loudly: "Grandpa, let me go!"
