Chapter 65: Ma Family’s Thoughts, Hundred-Eyed Spider
Ma Family.
One of the twelve major surnames in Chu State.
According to legend, the ancestor of the Ma family was a great monk who mastered the art of witchcraft and was worshiped as a divination divination by the first king of Chu.
Later, the Ma family followed the royal family's surname Xiong for generations, and became the royal family's confidants for generations.
In addition, the Ma family's ancestor is still alive, and the Ma family is firmly established as one of the twelve major surnames in Chu State.
His fiefdom is on the left side of the royal capital, and together with the Qu family and the Wu family, he defends the royal capital.
The core of the Ma family's fiefdom is Ma's City.
Ma's City covers an area of thousands of miles, and the city walls are tall and towering. They are made of countless first- and second-order spiritual materials, and a large number of formations are drawn.
It is said that the ancestors of the Ma family were interested in the existence of two fourth-order spiritual veins here, so they used great magic to make the two fourth-order spiritual veins intersect in the middle of Ma's city, which is where it is today. In Huilong Pond where the ancestors of the Ma family lived.
The ancestors of the Ma family set up many formations here and spent a lot of spiritual materials and spiritual stones, intending to merge the two fourth-level spiritual veins into one fifth-level spiritual vein.
The fifth-level spiritual vein is extremely rare, and only three families in the entire Chu Kingdom possess it. Naturally, the Ma family cannot compete with the Xiong family, Xiang family, and Zhuang family.
But the fact that it is not natural does not mean that it cannot be cultivated. The Ma family has spent thousands of years and has made considerable progress.
In the inner city of Ma City, the contemporary head of the Ma family, Ma Yunqiao, looked at the women crying in front of him expressionlessly.
He is Zhenren Jindan, the current head of the Ma family.
The head of the family may seem to have unlimited glory, but Ma Yunqiu knows best how heavy the responsibility is for the livelihood of millions of people who are direct descendants of the Ma family and have vassal surnames combined.
Once you make a wrong decision, you don’t know how many people will die in vain.
"I already know the matter, you go back first, I will deal with it myself."
After Mayun Tsao said these words, the crying women bowed down Just quit.
Those women are the mothers of Ma Hepi and Ma He Owl, and are direct descendants of the Ma family.
They already have the strength of the Foundation Establishment Realm, and the children born after merging with the geniuses in the clan have a chance of inheriting the talents and roots of their parents.
Ma Hehui and Mahe Owl are like this. They were born with extraordinary talents. They became foundation builders in their twenties and were undoubtedly included in the training sequence of the core of the family. .
This time, they took more than a hundred people from their branches and servants to the Qianzhong Valley to search for the golden silkworm Gu. They also reported it to the family elders.
Now five families have established their direct lineage, more than twenty families have established their side branches, two Zifus, and hundreds of qi-training servants have all died in Qianzhong Valley, which makes Ma Yunchao have to think. Is there anything involved?
In one day, so many life cards were broken, even the five direct lineages and more than twenty side branches, but how could it be so easy for the Zifu monks to cultivate?
The two Zifus also fell. Could it be that something big happened in Qianzhong Valley?
Ma Yunqiu also knew the temperament of Ma Hehui and others. Although he was a little proud, he was by no means blind.
They will definitely not provoke those they cannot afford to offend. Could it be that someone deliberately set a trap to kill the new generation of the Ma family?
After thinking for a while, Ma Yunzhao said: "Third brother, you take Gu Guard to Qianzhong Valley to investigate the situation."
"Brother, you suspect that this is intentional by other families. Are you targeting our Ma family?" Ma Yunzhen asked.
Ma Yunzhao nodded: "Who knows that my Ma family protects the weak, two Zifus, five direct descendants, and more than 20 side branches died in Qianzhong Valley for no apparent reason. If the Ma family doesn't do anything, it will lose its face. "
"At this time, apart from our Ma family, the only ones who have entered Qianzhong Valley are the Hong family and the Lan family," Ma Yunshe said.
Mayun Tsao shook his head: "Even if it is the Hong family and the Lan family, unless they join forces, no one in my Ma family will survive?"
Mayun Shiruo He nodded thoughtfully: "That's right. Behind the Hong family is the Zhuang family and behind the Lan family is the Xiang family. It's impossible for the Zhuang family and the Xiang family to unite."
Ma Yunchao shook his head again: "That's not true. No way.”
Ma Yunzhi was stunned. If the Hong family and the Lan family united, wouldn't it mean that the Zhuang family and the Xiang family would unite? !
Is the purpose of combining prime ministerial power and military power to be royal power? !
Ma Yunzhi was shocked by his guess. If the Zhuang family and the Xiang family really unite, then the Chu country will not be peaceful.
Mayun Tsao's expression was still very calm: "It may not be the Zhuang family and the Xiang family. Now that the national power of our country is rising and the territory is stable, the Zhuang family and the Xiang family will not be so unwise. After all, Wei Guohe Zheng Guo is nearby.”
“It may be a cooperation between the Red family and the Lan family, or it may be a private alliance between the two children.”
"Maybe it's not the Hong family and the Lan family, but it's not necessarily what monsters and ghosts He Fei and the others encountered."
"It may even be someone from the Wei or Zheng countries who did it. After all, they don't know how to do it." I am worried about the identity of my Ma family."
Ma Yunzhi was confused. He looked at his eldest brother. Since he became the head of the family, his whole personality seemed to have changed. He was completely different from the eldest brother before. .
Mayun Tsao sighed with a tired look: "Third brother, the position of head of the family is not a good thing with unlimited glory."
"It seems that the resources and manpower of the entire family are limitless. The transfer for my brother is inexhaustible, but sitting in this position, I can only feel tired.”
"Every move is under the watchful eye of the whole clan. Brother is always on tenterhooks, walking on thin ice. He is afraid that an uneven bowl of water will cause dissatisfaction among the clan and lead to disagreements within the good clan."
"So, any Brother Wei must be careful and cautious in everything."
"So many members of the family have died, and I don't know how many people are watching Brother Wei's actions. How much trouble will an accident cause?"
Ma Yunzhen felt heartbroken and said quickly: "Brother, don't worry, my brother will share your worries."
Ma Yunzhao nodded. , instructed: "When going to Qianzhong Valley, you must go with a high profile; and when investigating the situation, you must investigate carefully."
"If it is found out that it was done by the Lan family and the Hong family, we should think twice and play it safe; if it is found out that it was not them but an outsider, we will clean up the outsiders in Qianzhong Valley."
"The Ma family's face cannot be lost." Ma Yunsheng nodded repeatedly: "Brother, don't worry, younger brother understands."
"Go do it." Ma Yunzhen He waved his hand.
Watching Ma Yunzhu leave, the fatigue and helplessness on Ma Yunzhao's face suddenly disappeared, leaving only an indifferent expression.
"If I were Yuanying instead of Jindan at this time, how could I be involved in these trivial matters, and how could there be so many disturbances in the clan?"
"Only Yuanying, Shattered Pill, and Chengying!"< br>
Jiang Sheng and Lin Fan still don’t know what happened in Ma’s City.
Qianzhong Valley is more than ten thousand miles away from Ma's City, and there are several feudal towns in the middle.
Therefore, the disturbance in Ma's City will not affect Qianzhong Valley.
Lin Fan and Jiang Sheng did not go directly to the secret realm. Instead, they first threw away the personal clothes, storage bags and other items of the Ma Hepi, Ma He Owl and others within thousands of miles around, and then Back to the old ways.
"The Ma family is good at Gu, let them find those storage bags, clothes and other things." Lin Fan said with a smile.
"In this case, the spiritual stones and magic weapons may have been marked by them, so we still want to keep them?" Jiang Sheng asked.
Lin Fan took it as a matter of course: "Of course I have to keep it. When we leave Qianzhong Valley, wouldn't it be nice if we went directly to Zheng or Wei to sell it?"
"In the future, you and I To form an elixir, a lot of resources are required, and not a single drop of these magical elixirs can be wasted.”
Jiang Sheng couldn't help but laugh and said, "You sound like someone who knows how to live a good life."
Lin Fan snorted disdainfully and continued moving forward with Jiang Sheng.
After walking about five or six hundred miles, Lin Fan pointed to a cave ahead: "Brother Yuan Chen, look, through the cave, you can reach the secret realm."
Jiang Sheng looked at it and sensed it with his spiritual consciousness.
The seemingly ordinary cave entrance is actually full of fine and transparent spider silk. Those spider silks densely cover the cave entrance and surrounding areas.
It looks like an ordinary cave entrance, but once you get close and encounter the spider silk, it will attract the monsters in the cave.
This is a trap and a warning bell. Once any creature accidentally touches the spider silk, it will be sensed by the creatures in the cave.
Jiang Sheng looked at Lin Fan. He didn't believe that Lin Fan didn't know these things. Could it be that this was Lin Fan's deliberate arrangement?
"Brother Yuan Chen found out?" Lin Fan smiled.
Jiang Sheng nodded.
Lin Fan explained: "Brother Yuan Chen doesn't know something. Not only at the entrance of the cave, but also on the ground for miles around, there are these spider threads."
"There is a nest of hundred-eyed spiders in this cave. The Spider Queen has the strength of the Purple Mansion Realm, and it is she who laid these spider threads.”
“I had a fight with her before, but I didn’t kill her. Then I made an agreement with her that if I passed by her. She and her heirs cannot stop her from entering the cave."
"And if she has the possibility of forming a pill in the future, I will also help her."
Jiang Sheng chuckled: " It’s more like your temperament. Use any advantage you can.”
"Let's go and meet the Hundred-Eyed Spider Queen." Lin Fan said, releasing his own spiritual power fluctuations.
Soon, with a subtle rubbing sound, a ten-foot-sized hundred-eyed spider appeared in front of Lin Fan and Jiang Sheng.
This hundred-eyed spider already has the strength of the late Zifu. Now she can no longer advance in strength and can only wait for the opportunity to obtain the possibility of forming pills.
There is no doubt that the Hundred-Eyed Spider placed its treasure on Lin Fan.
Seeing Jiang Sheng following Lin Fan, the Bai-eyed Spider said, "Is this the friend you mentioned?"
Lin Fan nodded: "Yes, Fairy Mu and the others are here?"
The Hundred-Eyed Spider said: "Not yet."
Lin Fan smiled and said: "It seems we are here. It's early. In that case, let's go over first and ask the queen for your convenience."
The Hundred-Eyed Spider took two pieces of white silk from himself and handed them to Lin Fan: "This is my promise to you. "
Lin Fan took the white silk and wrapped it around his wrist: "Please don't worry, Madam, Lin will not agree easily. Once you agree, you will definitely do it."
The Hundred-Eyed Spider turned sideways to make way.
Jiang Sheng followed Lin Fan's example and wrapped the white silk around his wrist, nodded to the hundred-eyed spider, and followed Lin Fan into the dark cave covered with spider silk.
