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 she heard "Taoist in Black Robe", she felt that Sixth Senior Brother might have some hidden agenda when investigating this matter.
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: "That's right. As expected of Sixth Senior Brother, he really has a way. He can't do it like me."
Tu Baicao's smile faltered. He turned around and saw that his junior sister looked calm and composed. She was far less enthusiastic than his subordinates who were cheering for her. He 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 has something to do with that black-robed Taoist!"
Hearing this, Lin Yige couldn't help but be startled.
In the remnant soul's memory, no one from the Wen family appeared, 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 turned a blind eye to Wen Caiwei, the biological granddaughter who has been smart since childhood, loved by the eldest son, and is most likely to become the next head of the Wen family. It makes sense.
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 Senior Brother, why did you say this?"
Tu Baicao raised his chin slightly and hummed, but said nothing.
After waiting for a long time, he didn't wait for the junior sister to ask further questions. He turned around and saw her looking at him 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 want to know, as a junior sister, I, as a senior brother, have no choice but to tell you everything."
"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 'Wen's Eight Shu'."
In Wen Mengyue's generation, Wen's yin was strong and yang was weak.
There is only one Wen family member who 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 in 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 among them and the most ordinary in qualifications, but he is also the only one among the eight 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 can't break through to the Void Refining Stage, we won't have a few hundred years left in our lifespan."
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 who talks and laughs like a rough guy, and the fourth senior brother who is a rough and strong man are all attracted by beauties, 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.
"The eight Shus of the Wen family, and the three Shus after Wen Mengyue, Zhongyue, Shuyue, and Jiyue, all failed to achieve the Great Perfection of Nascent Soul stage and died after running out of longevity; the youngest four Shus, although they broke through to the stage of becoming gods, Period, but they all encountered unexpected events while going out for training?"
Tu Baicao came back to his senses, sneered slightly, and said: "That's just Wen's statement to the outside world. In fact, every time one of the four younger ones among the Eight Shus dies, Wen Mengyue's own cultivation level breaks through a small realm. .You said...is there such a coincidence in this world?"
Lin Yige frowned, feeling in her heart that Senior Brother Six was right.
This is indeed too much of a coincidence.
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. , He who devoted himself to the Tao fell sadly."
"If Wen's eighth sister hadn't died in the end and she was the only one left, Wen wouldn't have had 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. Junior sister, you can just listen to them."
As the saying goes, if you catch a thief, you will catch the stolen goods; if you catch an adulterer, you will catch a cheater.
Without evidence, the guilt cannot be established.
Moreover, the junior sister and Wen Zongyi have some kind of friendship, and the third senior sister also has some relationship with Wen Zongyi. It is really not appropriate to come to the door rashly to question and shout to kill someone.
Lin Yige's mind was on another person, "Who is that old man in black robe?"
"I am only sure that he is from the Huanxi Sect, but the Huanxi Sect is located on the border of Kyushu, and the disciples of the sect are extremely secretive, so the specific identity has yet to be confirmed."
"The Huanxi Sect?" Lin Yige murmured, "Is it a sect that emphasizes 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 disgust and his brows knitted together.
"Disciples of the Huanxi Sect practice the Ancient 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."
"The Ancient Heaven-Swallowing Technique?" Lin Yige repeated, surprised, "Could it be the technique left behind by the blood-winged black mosquito, the Hongmeng ferocious beast who claimed to be the Mosquito Taoist in the ancient times?"
The Mosquito Taoist is a Hongmeng ferocious beast, and the skills he 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. I don't know whether it is true or not. However, the aura of mortals is turbid and is not beneficial to their practice, so they basically only attack monks."
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?"
"Perhaps it is an insinuation that we have been practicing down-to-earth practice for thousands of years, but when we meet them, we can only end up in vain?"
