"In fact, people born and raised in Wuxi all know that the spread of witchcraft and Gu is the foundation for the survival of all the tribes in Wuxi. The witchcraft passed down from generation to generation, not only the secret methods emerge in endlessly, these various strange and weird Gu techniques can There are countless people! To survive and multiply here in Wuxi, people of all races who practice Gu are also emerging in endlessly. Otherwise, how would they survive? If a magic is practiced by people, there will naturally be many inheritances. The Gu technique you just saw , and it’s not surprising that even some unheard-of famous Gus are seen and heard by the world.”
Seeing that he was an older man and a senior farmer, no one intervened. He looks tall and majestic, but speaks slowly and leisurely, making people feel that he is worthy of an old man from a famous family.
At this time, Wan'er, who was standing beside her, had just been brought in. After being discovered to have been poisoned, she actually didn't have any further attacks. She didn't know when she got the poison. The man in black wanted to blow the bamboo flute to activate the poison in her body, but Liu Jixing stopped him abruptly.
It was obvious that she was so frightened that she seemed to have lost her soul. She was comforted by the disciples of the Tian family who were well versed in the art of witchcraft. She was sitting on a bench nearby. There was endless fear in her beautiful eyes. The unrecognizable Sister Cui was actually by her side. Even though she was already dead, she still managed to hold on and not fall down.
Anyone who knows her well knows that although she is no longer as charming as a girl, she was still as lovely as a beautiful woman. But looking at this miserable situation now, there is no trace of the original appearance, and they can't help but feel that the master of the Tian family is really cruel and ruthless.
Seeing Tian Hongcun's eyes shift away at this time, seeing Cihe looking at Wan'er quietly, Wan'er felt even more frightened, and looking at Tian Haocun's eyes with fear as if she had seen a ghost. The red lines emerging from the blood vessels on her face were still appearing and disappearing, but they were not as scary as they were at the beginning.
Therefore, Tian Hongcun seemed to be pondering, and then said thoughtfully: "In this life, I have seen someone who was infected by the blood poison, and she looked similar to this girl. However, at that time, the person suffered from the blood poison, but It didn’t take long to get through a meal!”
Tian Hongcun couldn't help but sigh softly, Tian Hongcun seemed to remember something, it was a kind of thinking about reminiscing about the past. After a while, he turned his eyes to the beams in the hall, as if he could feel something there. But everyone can feel that there is a trace of fear in his eyes, which is real fear.
"Well, it's too tragic! It's too tragic! Even now, decades later, when I recall the situation at that time, I can only say that I still feel chilled all over!" Tian Hongcun's voice seemed to be hoarse, a pair of muddy His eyes slowly scanned the people in the hall, as if he wanted to see who didn't believe what he said.
It was obvious that he was not disappointed. Everyone was frightened by his expression and the feeling of speaking. He seemed to be somewhat satisfied. Looking at the unfamiliar faces of Liu Jixing, although they didn't look nervous, they still looked a bit solemn, and I couldn't help but take a breath. He closed his eyes slightly for a while, then suddenly opened his triangular eyelids again.
"Yinw went to Sizhou City with the elders of his family from Qianzhou, because the family held a gathering in Sizhou City, which was the famous triennial competition among the Wuxi Zhudong tribes. Recalling the events of that year The grand competition was such a grand event, I still feel that it was an eye-opener for me!”
As if lost in memories, he murmured: "The great competition, which has been rare for several years, has also been suspended due to wars, but it has always been a major event for the Five Streams tribes. Basically, talents from all tribes have emerged here. , everyone will usually go all out for themselves and their clansmen. I don’t want something unexpected to happen in that year’s competition!” Tian Hongcun paused for a moment. He might be a little old, thinking about what happened back then, or in other words, he was brewing something. Some wording.
"The Tian family has always been the leader of the Five Streams tribes. Over the past hundred years, there have been dozens of great competitions. The Tian family has generally occupied a relatively large share of the conferences convened and held. That year's great competition was under the reign of the last head of the Tian family. Because of the holding of that competition, the Tian family has suffered heavy losses for decades!" Tian Haocun was a little sad, and his words were a little desolate.
Suddenly everyone stared at him closely, for fear of missing something. Liu Jixing on the side seemed to be listening with interest, but he was a little disapproving in his heart. Since the end of the Tang Dynasty, according to my own understanding and investigation, the most famous families in Wuxi are the recently rising Fu family, Peng family and Yang family. As for the Xiang family, the Ran family, and some other families, they are all relatively old family forces.
It should be said that the Shu realm has never been praised because the road to Shu is difficult. Even when the Wuxi disciples moved there, they felt a little forced and helpless. Everyone has always considered Chuxi to be the foundation of all barbarians, just like the Peng family that rose to prominence after Peng Yao and occupied most of the territory in Chuxi. Although they still respect the Tian family, most of the local Tian family's children have become followers of the Peng family.
The Fu family also took advantage of the chaos and rose to prominence after the vassal town suppressed the Tian family, and once surpassed the momentum of the Peng family. During the chaos in Ma Chu, Fu Yantong led his army to plunder almost all the wealth of the Ma Chu family. His strong financial resources made him the most powerful family representative in Wuxi for a time. Although Fu Yantong was once powerful, he knew that his foundation was unstable, and his family did not have a descendant like Peng Shihao, so he once took refuge in the Central Plains feudal town and Zhou Xingfeng.
The Yang family can be divided into two families. One is the Dong Man Yang family that has existed since ancient times, and the other is the Tuman Yang family formed by a mixture of Han and barbarians. The Dong barbarian Yang family has almost become history and is no longer worth mentioning. However, the Yang family, represented by Yang Zaisi, is still the pride and legend of Wuxi.
During this period, the Tian family did not have top-notch talents, and no one could compare with these people. Therefore, not only has the Tian family's momentum in Wuxi been greatly reduced, but it can also be said that without bold talents, the Tian family may gradually become history. Liu Jixing has studied these major families and feels that although the Tian family will not fall immediately, at least it is now a buffer for Wuxi.
Seeing a servant offering Tian Haocun a cup of tea, he took it and took a sip before putting it down. A pair of eyes seemed to be more lively, and he continued: "The competition that year produced two famous people, and both of them were later called wizards!"
It seemed that he remembered that his eyes were reverie at that time, and he murmured: "One is said to be from the sect of the old man, the witch god. I remember that people called him Tang Zhi, the Thousand Spiders and Hundreds of Poison Hands! The other unknown young man came from Chu. There is a tribe from a remote small cave in the west, named Zheng Tuo, who later became the famous King of Hundred Poisons in the world!"
