Chapter 73 A Family Story
Lin Yige saw that Tu Baicao had found out about his mother’s private affairs, and felt that something was wrong, so she mentioned it casually.
When I heard "Taoist in black robe", I knew there was something hidden in it.
But Tu Baicao can shine brightly with a little sunshine, and get carried away with a few words of praise.
Lin Yige could only purse her lips and smile, "As expected of Sixth Senior Brother, he even knows this!"
Hearing the surprise in his junior sister's words, Tu Baicao instantly put the slightest bit of unhappiness behind him and began to boast.
"What's the point! Junior sister, don't you even look at who I am? The Jiuzhou Newspaper Office under me is not a vegetarian! Is there anything in the world of Jiuzhou Continent that I, the Jiuzhou Newspaper Office, don't know? "
Lin Yige nodded repeatedly and praised perfunctorily: "Isn't it true? He is indeed the sixth senior brother. He is really good at it, not like me."
Tu Baicao's smile faltered. When he turned around to see his junior sister, who was looking calm and composed, she was far less enthusiastic than his subordinates who were cheering for her, and she suddenly felt bored.
He turned the jade pen in his hand absentmindedly. After flipping back and forth between his fingers, the jade pen fell into his palm.
The corners of Tu Baicao's lips were slightly raised, revealing a tiger tooth, and he continued to say nothing.
"Wen Mengyue and the black-robed Taoist are definitely related!"
Hearing this, Lin Yige couldn't help but be startled.
No one from the Wen family appeared in the memory of the remnant soul, so she never connected Wen Mengyue with the black-robed old man.
In fact, if you think about it carefully, if Wen Mengyue is related to the black-robed old man, then she has ignored Wen Caiwei, a granddaughter who has been smart since childhood and is favored by the eldest son. She is most likely to become the next head of the Wen family. It makes sense without asking.
Perhaps the fact that Wen Caiwei was not taken away from her body really hindered her.
Lin Yige had a guess in his mind and asked, "Sixth Brother, why did you say this?"
Tu Baicao raised his chin slightly and hummed softly, but said nothing.
After waiting for a long time, I didn't wait for the junior sister to ask further questions. I turned around and saw her looking at me leisurely, smiling and saying nothing.
Tu Baicao coughed slightly in embarrassment and found his way down the steps, "Originally I didn't want to talk about people behind their backs, but since you are a junior sister and you want to know, I, a senior brother, have no choice but to tell you everything you know. It’s over.”
"This goes back to a hundred years ago, when Third Senior Sister and Master Wen became partners. Although Third Senior Sister unkindly took away my two roast rabbit legs, you also know that I am not the kind of petty person. I checked it out at that time."
Tu Baicao took out a jade slip, glanced at it and handed it to Lin Yige.
"This is the general life experience of the "Eight Shus of the Wen family"."
In Wen Mengyue's generation, the Wen family had some yin and yang decline.
Only one Wen family member can practice, but there are eight Wen family girls whose qualifications are above that Wen family member.
Those eight daughters of the Wen family were included in the Wen family's cultivation genealogy according to the order of "Meng Zhongshu Ji, Xian Hui Yayou" and were called the "Eight Shu of the Wen family".
Tu Baicao said succinctly: "Wen Mengyue is the eldest and the most ordinary one among them, but she is also the only one among the eight sisters who has survived to this day."
The longevity of a monk increases with the improvement of his cultivation level.
If the cultivation level is improved too slowly, the monks will die of old age like mortals.
Monks with ordinary qualifications often need to practice diligently and strive to break through the realm before the five declines of heaven and man, and increase their life span by hundreds of years.
On weekdays, he needs to experience treasure hunting in various dangerous ruins to prepare for his next breakthrough to extend his life.
“I am two thousand and sixteen years old this year, and Wen Mengyue is five hundred years older than me. If we cannot break through to the Void Refining Stage, we will not have a few hundred years left in our lifespan.”< br>
As Tu Baicao said, he couldn't help but raise his hand and touch his face. Compared with the six thousand years of life in the Void Refining Period, he is two thousand and sixteen years old, neither old nor young, which is the best age!
The second senior brother is so handsome and handsome, and the fourth senior brother is such a rough and strong man, all beauties are attracted to him, but he is so handsome and unrestrained, why doesn't he have a peach blossom?
Lin Yige took the jade slip and scanned it with his consciousness, revealing a hint of surprise.
"Wen's eight Shu, the three after Wen Mengyue, Zhongyue, Shuyue, and Jiyue, all failed to attack the gods in the Nascent Soul stage and ran out of longevity; the youngest four Shus , even though they have broken through to the stage of becoming gods, they all encountered accidents while going out for training?"
Tu Baicao came back to his senses, sneered slightly, and said, "That's just what Wen said to the outside world. Every time one of the four younger ones dies, Wen Mengyue's own cultivation level will reach a new level. You think... is there such a coincidence in this world?"
Lin Yige wrinkled. He frowned, feeling in his heart that Senior Brother Six was right.
This is indeed a bit too coincidental.
Tu Baicao continued his analysis: "Wen Mengyue had poor qualifications and did not practice hard, but he repeatedly broke through the bottleneck at the last moment, improved his cultivation, and extended his longevity. In comparison, the other seven had outstanding talents and excellent understanding. , who was devoted to the Tao, but died sadly."
"If she hadn't been the only one of Wen's eight sisters to die in the end, it would not have been her turn to be the head of the family."
After saying that, Tu Baicao paused and added another sentence.
"...The above are all my family's words. Just listen to whatever you want, little junior sister."
As the saying goes, catch thieves and stolen goods, and catch cheaters and cheaters.
Without evidence, the guilt cannot be established.
Moreover, the junior sister and Wen Zongyi have some friendship, and the third senior sister also has a relationship with Wen Zongyi. It is not appropriate to come to the door to question him rashly and shout to kill someone.
Lin Yige's mind was on another person, "Who is that black-robed old man?"
"I am only sure that he is from the Huanxi Sect, but the Huanxi Sect is located on the edge of Jiuzhou The disciples of the sect are extremely secretive, so their specific identities have yet to be confirmed.”
“Huanxi Sect?” Lin Yige murmured, “Is it possible that it is a sect that pays attention to the harmony of yin and yang like the Hehuan Sect. ?”
"The Hehuan Sect emphasizes picking yin to replenish yang, and picking yang to replenish yin. The purpose is to prolong life, and the method is based on yin and yang. It is basically decent. But the Huanxi Sect... is a bit evil."
As he spoke, Tu Baicao showed a hint of evil. Disgusted, his brows furrowed into a ball.
“The disciples of the Huanxi Sect practice the Taikoo Heaven Swallowing Technique, which allows them to use other people’s cultivation, vitality, yin and yang energy, etc., for their own use, just like mosquitoes.”
“Taikoo. "The Heaven Swallowing Technique?" Lin Yige repeated, surprised, "Could it be a technique left by the Blood-winged Black Mosquito, a Hongmeng ferocious beast who called himself the Mosquito Taoist in the ancient times?"
The Mosquito Taoist is a Hongmeng ferocious beast? , the skills left behind are truly extraordinary.
But...that can be cultivated by humans?
“It’s the ancient Heaven-Swallowing Technique. It is said that the founder of the Huanxi Sect improved the Ancient Heaven-Swallowing Technique, but I don’t know if it’s true or not. However, the aura of mortals is turbid and is of no use to their practice, so they basically only attack monks.”< br>
Lin Yige was still puzzled, "Since we are practicing the Ancient Heaven-Swallowing Technique, why is it not called the Heaven-Swallowing Sect, but the Huanxi Sect?"
"It may be a metaphor for our down-to-earth attitude. After practicing for thousands of years, meeting them will only end in nothing?”

I accidentally wrote a female villain. -_-||
I got up early in the morning to attend the master’s live class, took a nap at noon, and was not in the mood in the afternoon. The second chapter will be posted later.
