"There are only a few people who know the inside story of this matter now, so don't let it slip." Chen Yulou warned.
According to their original plan, now was not the time to tell the truth, but who made him not only dote on his nephew, but also have strong confidence in him.
In Chen Yulou's view, his nephew is a person who knows the importance of things and will not reveal the truth easily once he knows it.
And more importantly, Chen Ziyan was really afraid that Chen Ziyan would do something shocking because he didn't know the inside story.
Although he is blind, Chen Yulou is a blessing in disguise. He can judge some of the information he wants through his words and deeds. As his nephew, Chen Ziyan is naturally the person he pays attention to all the time.
Through Chen Ziyan's daily words and deeds, as well as the things he did, Chen Yulou had long seen that this nephew's character was very similar to his own when he was young, and he was both the kind of person who was fearless.
Normally, everything is fine when the bottom line is not touched, but once you notice that someone is spying on you, no one can predict what will happen.
So after Chen Yulou thought about it, he decided to tell him the truth directly.
When Chen Ziyan heard this, he nodded subconsciously. He still understood the principle that things come true, and hearing this meaning, he knew that he was just kept in the dark, and he was afraid that Ding Sitian and even the Management Bureau would The same goes for sides.
If that's the case, then why is he unbalanced?
"Uncle, if it's convenient, can you tell me what's going on?" Chen Ziyan continued to ask.
Although he has solved some doubts now, he is even more curious about what is hidden behind the incident.
Now that someone can give me an answer, I naturally can't give up this good opportunity.
Since Chen Yulou decided to tell Chen Ziyan the truth, he naturally would not hide anything at this moment. After hearing his inquiry, he quickly told him the ins and outs of the matter.
The real cause of this matter is with the Management Bureau. As Chen Ziyan knows, the Management Bureau, in addition to dealing with the big trouble of the descendants of ancient gods, is also responsible for maintaining order in the "jianghu".
Resisting and combating harmful forces is a way to maintain order. Chen Yulou does not know some secret information. He only knows that a certain secret organization that the Bureau has been investigating has made breakthrough progress, but the problem is that there is a breakthrough. At the same time, the investigation progress has hit a bottleneck.
Because that secret organization is very good at occupying magpie's nests, except for the headquarters that is unknown where, all the dispatched members are hidden among other forces.
The Management Bureau has successfully penetrated into the outermost reaches of the organization, but it is extremely difficult to go further because the core members of the organization do not meet easily and communicate in an obscure code language, which makes investigators completely unable to understand. According to speculation, the time required to crack the code is measured in years.
After considering various means, the senior management of the administration finally decided to conduct a secretive operation to alert the enemy!
The reason why it is called a secret attempt to alert the enemy is because the Administration will not personally come forward in this matter, but will hire a trustworthy force to do it. This can not only have the effect of alerting the enemy, but also not attract too much attention from the other party.
In view of the importance of this mission, the executor must be selected carefully. After successively screening many Jianghu forces, the Xieling lineage, which had been hidden for many years, finally entered the sight of the administration.
There are many reasons for choosing Xiling to do this, but the most important thing is that Xiling has been dormant for nearly half a century and has only begun to show its prominence in recent years. Today's internal structure is relatively monotonous, and the personnel are all well-established. It is impossible to be Infiltrated by secret organizations.
In addition, the Xieling lineage also had a relationship with their director, so after several discussions, the task fell on Chen Yulou.
After listening to Chen Yulou tell the whole story, Chen Ziyan thought for a while and asked: "Uncle, tell me the truth, what benefits can we get in the end by helping the management authority do such a dangerous thing?"
Who is Chen Yulou? The risks of this matter are obvious. He will not get involved if there is no benefit.
And it can't be a simple benefit, it must be a bargaining chip that Chen Yulou, or even the entire Chen family, cannot refuse.
"As expected of you!" Chen Yulou laughed when he heard this, and then said: "The reward given by the administration is actually not complicated, that is, it will provide me with intelligence and I can use their safe houses overseas at will. .”
Provide information?
Casual use of overseas safehouses?
Chen Ziyan recited these two conditions silently and felt something was wrong from the bottom of his heart.
Because he could hear joy in Chen Yulou's tone, but this bargaining chip seemed to him too cheap, even a little perfunctory.
If the so-called intelligence and safe houses were beyond his capabilities before, now with the support of Shirley Yang, achieving these is no longer a problem for Chen Ziyan.
Therefore, Chen Ziyan didn't understand why, in his uncle's opinion, they were the ones taking advantage of this deal.
After thinking about it from Chen Yulou's perspective, Chen Ziyan found that if he wanted to turn this situation into an extremely beneficial situation for his family, he would have to do something major overseas that would achieve international influence.
And only when it reaches this level will it be necessary to rely on official power.
After all, no matter how capable Wall Street tycoons are, there are still many areas where they are beyond their capabilities, and even bottom lines that cannot be touched.
"Uncle, what are you going to do?" Thinking of this, Chen Ziyan asked directly.
After reviewing the whole story, he has found the key point, which is his uncle Chen Yulou.
After the commission from the Bureau is completed, in order to prevent the secret organization from seeing the flaw, Chen Yulou must be on the wanted list, and will also be hunted down by Bureau personnel who do not know the inside story. Now the reward he is asking for is an overseas safe house. With intelligence support, it is not difficult to see that his uncle wants to go out and cause trouble.
"Haha, do you still remember that thing you got in Zhelong Mountain last time?" Chen Yulou did not answer his question directly, but asked in return.
What did Zhelong Mountain get?
Chen Ziyan was stunned when he was asked. He was silent for a while before he realized what Chen Yulou was talking about.
They had gained a lot in Zhelong Mountain, but what Chen Yulou was talking about was definitely not the gold and silver. The most precious items, such as the Muchen Bead and the Ancient Legalist Mirror, were always with him, so these were not Chen Yulou's. What he wanted to say, after such elimination of answers, it became obvious that what his uncle wanted to say should be the thousand-year-old tree.
"Uncle, are you talking about that tree?"
Although the wood root barely survived the disaster, it was later contaminated by the breath of the corpse cave, and the aura accumulated for thousands of years was invaded and damaged. In addition, there was no need to carry it with him, so Chen Ziyan asked Chen Yulou to take it back to his hometown with him. .
"That's right, it's that tree." Chen Yulou responded with a smile.
"It's really that thing." Chen Ziyan was surprised.
Although he immediately thought of the ten-thousand-year-old tree, he still couldn't imagine how this spiritual plant with its damaged spiritual charm allowed Chen Yulou to do all this.
If Mu Yuan successfully survives the catastrophe, it goes without saying that he has reached another level like the little fairy and can no longer be viewed from the perspective of a spiritual plant.
But the tree they obtained could not survive the disaster safely. Although it escaped their wave of man-made disasters, it was affected by the corpse cave, and most of its aura was damaged. Even the budding spiritual wisdom was wiped out again. All that is left is the medicinal properties accumulated by oneself.
But in terms of utility alone, there are many more outstanding treasures in the world, so although the wood root is precious, it is just that in Chen Ziyan's opinion.
The places he will go to in the future will not be easy, and it is not difficult to find similar treasures of heaven and earth.
"I didn't expect it." Chen Yulou seemed to have guessed Chen Ziyan's reaction and chuckled twice: "Actually, I didn't expect it at first, but when I checked the relevant information later, a record in an ancient book inspired me. , made me realize that this wood root is not hopeless.”
Perhaps because he was afraid that Chen Ziyan would not know the inner connection, Chen Yulou gave the answer directly without waiting for him to ask further questions:
"Although this human-shaped tree suffered a disaster, it was considered a lucky one. It's just that its foundation was damaged. It would take at least a thousand years to recover. This would greatly reduce its value to us, so I wanted to plant it. In our ancestral land, we can barely leave a legacy for future generations."
"But who would have thought that there would be no one to guide the way? When I was looking up planting methods, I unexpectedly saw a method in ancient books to repair damage to the roots of plant elves. This was a real surprise."
"If the damaged aura of the wood root can be repaired, then it can successfully become a real plant spirit. It will not only be as simple as becoming a family heirloom, but it will actually protect the continuity of my Chen family. "
Chen Yulou's excitement was undisguised. He completely forgot about his usual way of chewing words and said a lot at once, especially the last four words "endless", when he roared out.
"Continuously..." Chen Ziyan couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth.
He had to admit that this wave really hit Chen Yulou's fatal weakness.
Ever since Chen Yulou knew that his family had not died out, in addition to thinking about passing on the Xiling lineage, he also spent his whole day thinking about how to pass on the family better.
If Chen Ziyan hadn't shown too much independence, he might have been pulled over to become a heir inheritance machine.
Now that he suddenly discovered that he could repair the wooden root, he could really do anything.
Chen Ziyan believed in the method Chen Yulou said because it was included in his Xiling inheritance, but he did not expect that it was also recorded in his family.
This method of repairing the spiritual charm of plants and trees is a top-notch existence even in his Xiling inheritance. In terms of preciousness, it is not inferior to the method of making the Nine Death Jingling Armor.
only……
Chen Ziyan never even thought about this, because this method... would harm Tianhe!
As we all know, any skill that is given this evaluation must be an extremely cruel method.
And this Xieling inheritance method is the best among them. There are not so many evil ways in the execution process, but there will definitely be the consequence of excessive killing.
Probably because the core of this method is to use form to supplement form and spirit to supplement spirit.
It would be okay if it were an ordinary spiritual plant, but the foundation of the ten thousand-year-old wood root is there. If you want to repair its missing spiritual charm, ordinary animals will definitely not be able to do it. The most suitable choice that Chen Ziyan can think of is the only one known as ' The leader of all spirits' human beings.
"Uncle, do you know the disadvantages of that method?" Chen Ziyan asked in a deep voice after the record of the secret method flashed in his mind.
His only thought at this time was to stop Chen Yulou from continuing.
Although Chen Ziyan acts coldly, he has always been a person who does not offend others unless they offend him. He cannot accept the wanton destruction of innocent people, no matter what the reason is.
Although what Chen Yulou meant was that he wanted to go outside to do this, this was not possible.
On the one hand, it was difficult for Chen Ziyan to accept this kind of unprovoked killing. On the other hand, he knew very well that if Chen Yulou, as the main messenger, really did it, the consequences would be beyond his ability to bear.
Good and evil will have their own destiny. In today's world, this is not as simple as saying.
After all, this is a world where eternal gods exist, and any possibility will arise.
Furthermore, the spirits of plants and trees cultivated through this method are not the kind of spirits that are born and raised at all. Even if they are just like a piece of white paper when they are born, some things will be engraved in their bones and they will definitely become a statue in the end. How could such a bloodthirsty and cruel evil spirit be used to protect the family inheritance?
Don't forget that the family was fine at that time, but was destroyed by this evil spirit.
Moreover, as a person who intends to pursue immortality, Chen Ziyan has no intention of maintaining the inheritance with external objects.
He doesn't even need to compare with the Queen Mother of the West. He only needs to be able to match the life span of the Zhang family, and then he can completely build his family into an impregnable fortress.
If he is lucky and can really get the secret of the ancient god's infinite lifespan, then he will be the patron saint of his family.
"Of course I know the disadvantages you mentioned." Chen Yulou obviously knew what Chen Ziyan was talking about.
"Then you..." Chen Ziyan just wanted to persuade.
But as soon as he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Chen Yulou, who continued: "I understand what you mean, but can't we just think about it from another angle?"
"It's like the so-called excessive killing, which refers to the killing of innocent people, which means killing many innocent people in a short period of time. But if we are doing justice for God, then the sin will become a merit."
"Ah...this." Chen Ziyan was choked, and it took him a moment to figure it out. He couldn't help but said: "But in this case, it will take a long time to shorten the recovery time of at least a thousand years."
He understood what his uncle meant. Although it was a bit suspicious of changing the concept, it was really not impossible.
The only drawback is that it takes a long time to implement, and he seriously doubts whether Chen Yulou can accomplish this in his remaining lifespan. (End of chapter)
