Teyvat's Otherworldly Adventurer

Chapter 174

The encounter between Barron and Ruan Feng is a very classic plot of the king's adventure.

The expedition team that went deep into the snow-capped mountains was trapped by the wind and snow, and there was still no rescue after the supplies were exhausted.Hunger leads to weakness, and exhaustion leads to madness. In order to survive, a cruel choice is before them-should they eat the flesh and blood of their companions to maintain their own vitality?The more we persevered, the more hope of being rescued.

After going through a difficult test of human nature, most people choose to follow their instincts, except for Barron.

He also wavered, but in the end he couldn't completely abandon the bottom line of being a human being, so he chose not to eat, and fainted from hunger.

In the depths of the snow-capped mountains thousands of meters above sea level, one can imagine the consequences of a person being starved and fainted.

Fortunately, his choice of sticking to the bottom line impressed an expert hermit. In the Jiashen Rebellion, the thieves ranked seventeenth among the 36 thieves, and the comprehension of the six thieves of Ku Xian, the sixth of the Eight Miraculous Skills——Ruan Feng.

Ruan Feng saved Baron with his own blood containing vitality, and taught him the Liuku Immortal Thief, leaving only one warning: don't eat people.

After listening to Barron's narration, everyone constructed an image of a master with a sense of immortality, a game of the world, and a tough and straight figure in their minds.

"Ruan Feng...Master, have you been cultivating alone in the snow-capped mountains for decades?"

Ma Xianhong was a little surprised, and there was a bit of respect unconsciously in his tone.People with strength and principles can always win people's respect.

"yes,"

Barron also had an expression of reverence, and then turned to regret, "But then he left."

"It's a pity, it's a pity!"

Zhang Chulan was heartbroken. It would be great if there was such a senior for consultation. Being able to live in seclusion in the snow-capped mountains alone for decades, should have forgotten all the grievances and entanglements in the world?Plus Barron's relationship...

"Ugh……"

"Since Master Ruan Feng has no clues in a short time, do you have any other candidates?"

Hai Xi looked at Wang Ye, "Among the 36 members of Jiashen, there is more than one from the Wudang faction. In the past few decades, has Senior Zhou Sheng really had no contact with you at all?"

"Who knows, I haven't seen it anyway."

Wang also had an expression of "don't ask me, I don't know anything", "I have only been on Wudang Mountain for a few years?"

"What about Song Mian? Have you heard of this person?"

"No, no, none." Wang Ye shook his head like a rattle, asking three questions.

"Hey, you didn't say it because you were worried that it would hurt the Wudang faction?"

Haixi stared suspiciously at Wang Ye for a while, but the tired slob refused to say anything, and they had nothing to do, "Okay, let's rule out the Wudang faction for now. Except for Wudang, among the 36 people, there are three from Tiangongtang. Ma, you are against Tiangongtang..."

"I don't have any impression." Ma Xianhong shook his head. He is a real person. If he knows it, he knows it. If he doesn't know it, he doesn't know it.

"Okay, next is the Tang Sect, and they also have two. At that time, it was said that it was dealt with internally, and no one was alive or dead."

"Why, you don't believe it?"

"It doesn't matter whether you believe it or not. The important thing is that we have legitimate reasons to try it out." Haixi cast her eyes on Zhang Chulan.

"What does it have to do with me?" Zhang Chulan crossed her arms and looked terrified.

"More than ten years ago, your grandfather, who had been hidden for many years, suddenly appeared and broke into the Tang Sect alone, attracting the then head of the Tang Sect, Yang Lie, to personally pursue and kill him..."

Halfway through the speech, seeing Zhang Chulan pricked up her ears, Hai Xi calmed down, "Do you want to know what happened at that time? If you want to know, go to Tangmen and ask, and find out about Dong Chang and Xu Xin by the way."

"Do you want me dead?"

Zhang Chulan had a toothache expression, "Because my grandfather died, the head of the Tang Sect would not welcome me even if they died together. Wouldn't you let me go like a sheep?"

"Relax,"

Haixi patted him on the shoulder, "You are no longer an uninhabited person. We are a member of the Ten Guys Association. Besides, there is an old master. As long as the Tangmen is not crazy, they will not really do anything to you. At most, you will suffer a little bit, and you are not even willing to pay this price. You still want to find the truth?"

"……All right."

Zhang Chulan had no choice. This matter was directly related to Feng Baobao. He was the one who cared most.

But just when they started planning how to deal with Tang Sect, an unexpected piece of news came.

"This is really nowhere to find!"

Hai Xi hung up the phone, "Let's go north first!"

……

……

Northeast Gaojia.

"Brother, do you really want to tell them? News about your uncle?"

Gao Yong hesitated, "And that..."

"If you don't say anything, how will Er Zhuang be treated?"

Gao Lian was silent for a long time, before blowing out a smoke ring, "A lot of things have happened during this time, and I can see it clearly. Fate sometimes must be there, and there is no time to force it. Isn't the descendant of Fenghou Qimen expelled from Wudang? Er Zhuang is already the closest to success in our family. If she can be cured this time, let her join Xinjian. From now on in our family, don't try again."

"That's the Eight Wonders! Brother!" Gao Yong exclaimed in surprise.

"What about the Eight Miraculous Skills?!"

Gao Lian seemed to be angry too, "Before we got it, we were one of the four families, no worse than Wang, Lu, and Lu. What about now? They are all top ten, but we can only join the company. Do you think that I, the person in charge of the Northeast Region, is very prestigious? It's not impossible! We are almost expelled from the four families because of this book!"

"This, alas..."

Gao Yong sighed, why didn't he know this?But with the Eight Miraculous Skills in hand, who can resist practicing them?
Didn't Wudang also cause the old Taoist priests of Zhou Sheng's generation to almost die out because of Fenghou Qimen?That is to say, Lu Jin is a weird one. Tong Tianlu has been held in his hands for decades, let alone passed on, he has only practiced superficially.No wonder they have such a great reputation, take it!
"By the way, there is one more thing. The police station below reported a message saying that an old man surrendered himself to the police station, saying that he killed a small child when he was a child."

"Isn't this normal?"

Gao Lian put out the cigarette butt, "It was a matter before the founding of the People's Republic of China, and it needs to be commended. Well, you arrange to take care of their family."

"I know all of this. The point is, the police station sent people to look at it. The deceased seemed to be a strange person, and he also left behind a very strange demon sword."

Gao Yong explained, "After someone accidentally touched it, it seemed like it was being controlled, and they slashed at people like crazy. In the end, they were freed by cutting off an arm. Now no one dares to touch the knife. This is a photo."

"A demon sword..."

Gao Lian took the photo and looked at it, his expression immediately became solemn, "Is this, that knife? You go to the scene immediately and bring the knife back, and be careful not to touch it with your body or Qi."

……

……

"Patriarch Gao, please stay safe."

"Master Ma, and all of you, I have neglected you."

After the ceremony, both parties took their seats.

"It's okay, the Gao family has some secrets that they don't want to be known to outsiders, we all understand."

Haixi took over the conversation, "So this time, have you made up your mind?"

"……Yes."

Gao Lian nodded slightly, "Actually, it also has something to do with your identities. If the little girl can be cured, I hope she can join the new section and usher in a new life."

"Add a new cut?"

This was obviously beyond the expectations of Ma Xianhong and Haixi. The two looked at each other, and Haixi asked, "Will the company agree?"

Gao Erzhuang is a temporary worker in the Northeast Region, and her temporary worker is different from others.Among the seven major districts, temporary workers like Wang Zhenqiu were replaced as soon as they were changed. He and the company originally took what they needed.If it's Feng Baobao, the troublesome nature she contains is greater than the benefits she brings to the company, so the company releases people very happily, and even offers it.

But like Chen Duo in South China and Gao Erzhuang in Northeast China, the situation is different.

The danger inherent in Chen Duo is too great. No matter whether he is a temporary worker or not, he must be under the supervision of the company. Being a temporary worker has some opportunities to go out.As for Gao Erzhuang, the company took advantage of it completely. Her performance like a god in the Internet field is one of the company's trump cards.

How could such a person want to leave so easily?
"I'll make them say yes."

Gao Lian doesn't say many words, but every sentence is very powerful.

"Then we have no problem."

"it is good,"

A smile finally appeared on Gao Lian's face, "Then we can talk about what happened to Er Zhuang. As you can imagine, Er Zhuang's injury was indeed caused by a skill. It's called Da Luo Dong Guan."

"One of the Eight Miraculous Skills, Daluo Cave View?"

Hai Xi confirmed with narrowed eyes.

"good."

"That's not Gu Jiting's..."

"I don't know if you guys are clear, the members of Jiashen 36 back then, besides Wugensheng, also had two full-sex members, one was Gu Jiting, and the other was Gao Gen."

"The surname is Gao... Could it be?"

"Exactly, Gao Gen. He has some ties to our Gao family. He was originally a first-rate disciple, and he later joined Quanxing as a disguise. His original purpose was to assassinate Wu Gensheng, the head of Quanxing."

A wry smile appeared on Gao Lian's face, "It's a pity that Wu Gensheng is too scary. Uncle Gao Gen not only didn't make a move when he was watching him closely, but was convinced by him, and finally married Jinlan. The family of his undercover plan knew about it, so at the beginning, when the list was released, other sects and families were outraged. We were the only ones who were almost unmoved and just waited patiently for him to come back and give an explanation.

"It took a long time to wait. Then one day, my uncle came back seriously injured and brought back a cheat book, which was the Daluo Cave View. At that time, the whole world was besieging 36 thieves and robbing the Eight Wonders. We suddenly got one of them, and we didn't dare to say anything about it. We didn't even arrange for our clansmen to practice.

"It wasn't until the turmoil was completely over, and most of the 36 people were killed, that they picked some elites from the clan to start practicing, but they didn't expect..."

Gao Lian's voice began to tremble: "In 70 years, 23 Gao family disciples practiced, one died and the other died, without exception! At the beginning, we only thought that it was difficult to practice, but after sacrificing more than a dozen family elites, we couldn't stop. We have paid so much. If there is nothing to gain, what about those ancestors? So we can only continue... The dignified Gao family was not defeated by foreign enemies, but was destroyed by this practice. The only exception is Er Zhuang, who also failed. Yes, it's my own hands..."

Hearing about the secrets of the Gao family, both of them were silent for a while. After Gao Lian regained his composure, Haixi said, "There are thresholds for the cultivation of the Eight Wonders, and we all know this. From what we have learned so far, Fenghou Qimen is the most dangerous one. If you can't pass it, your spirit will always be trapped in the inner scene, and the outer performance is crazy. This Daluo Cave Temple..."

He organized the wording: "Can you lend us a read? Also, does the practice of Daluo Cave View begin with reading the secret book?"

"That's not going to happen,"

Gao Lian handed out the cheat book that he had prepared a long time ago, "If you only read the cheat book without trying it yourself, there is no danger."

After receiving the cheat book and opening it, Haixi and Ma Xianhong started to read it.

"What a person gains cannot be entirely received from the sky...it is controlled by the sky, and the sky does not give it away..."

According to the description in the secret book, if you want to observe the ages, laugh and sing, you must break the shackles of the sky, and the way to break is to abandon the human body and escape into another world.And this world is called Inner View!

"Abandon the shackles of the body and swim freely in the interior..."

Hai Xi recalled the portrayal of Gu Shiting's few shots in the comics, why could he suddenly disappear under the siege of Shuzimen, and still drive the leader Hutu crazy?
Why did Ruan Feng say that he was free to come and go, and he was not bound to go wherever he wanted?
Why can he possess other aliens many times, and even attack the king?There are so many inheritors of the Eight Wonders, why does he insist on chasing after the king?

Is it hatred, or... fear?
If Gu Shiting becomes a ghost who abandons his physical body and only exists in the inner scene, then he can naturally disappear out of thin air and escape into the inner scene; but as a warlock, Master Hutu will be attacked by him when he enters the inner scene during practice, so he will go crazy; and because everyone in the world has the same inner scene, he can possess others at will, and attack the king.

And the reason why he attaches so much importance to the king is probably because Fenghou Qimen will restrain Daluo Dongguan to some extent, right?
The Daluo Cave View only uses the particularity of the interior space to break the many constraints of the sky on people, so that the Guji Pavilion has the ability to view the ages.

But Fenghou Qimen can "turn me into a king" and become the master of the interior space if he has practiced to the depths!
As a ghost that exists attached to the interior space, how could Gu Shiting allow the real "king" to appear in the interior space?

"It makes sense, everything makes sense..."

Haixi murmured, "So the failures of the Gao family may not be because of qualifications, maybe they were killed by Gu Shiting who was ambushing in the interior scene in advance?"As for the only exception, Gao Erzhuang, it was because of her innate supernatural power that she found a brand new space where she could also place her spirit - the Internet.Is this a place that Gu Jiting can't control?
