The residence of the Tantai family is truly on the top of the mountains. From a distance, the stalagmites on the mountain are like giant straight lines reaching into the sky. It is located at the intersection of a vast river and a small river. The mountains are lush and lush, and the clouds and mist on the mountains are like fairy air all year round. lingering.
At this moment, Lu Ze stood on the back of the wooden crown crane, looking at the three peaks of Bijia Mountain from a distance, as if the Bijia Mountain stretched across the earth.
There is a huge manor sitting on the peak among them. There are shadows of people inside and outside the manor, and there are also birds looming in the clouds and mist from time to time.
What a famous mountain and river, what a paradise resort.
In terms of viewing alone, even the Taoist fairy mountain in Xia Kingdom is nothing more than this!
When the Wood-Crown Crane approached two kilometers from the top of Beacon Mountain, two loud eagle calls were heard in the sky, and two black shadows on the left and right were getting closer and closer.
Manager Xie was very dedicated and whispered at this moment: "Mr. Lu, he is the great horned eagle of the Tantai family. Generally, only one will appear for visitors. I am afraid these two have been waiting for us for a long time."
The implication is that the Tantai family knows that the coming person is evil and is already prepared.
This made Wu Riguang next to him look a little confused, but he couldn't refute, so he had to apologize and laugh next to him.
[You damn fat man, how come you know so much about my Tantai family! 】
Xie Zhe has been a housekeeper for so many years. Although he looks simple and honest, he has a sharp mind.
As soon as he finished speaking, he noticed Wu Riguang's expression out of the corner of his eye. He knew what the other person was thinking without having to guess, but all the words Song Tianhua said when he came emphasized one thing - Lu Ze takes the lead in everything!
Therefore, after he finished speaking, he just looked at Lu Ze and pretended not to see Wu Riguang.
"Double attention." Lu Ze smiled half-heartedly, but the slight sarcasm in his words made Wu Riguang next to him blush slightly.
"It's just the family's daily patrol, Mr. Lu..." Wu Riguang explained subconsciously.
With his two-meter-tall tall body, he usually looked majestic and majestic wherever he stood, but when he heard Lu Ze's words, he just bent down as humbly as possible to make himself less conspicuous.
The strong wind at the top of the mountain blew the moist mist to his cheeks, and the familiar manor in his field of vision was getting closer and closer, but Wu Riguang felt no joy at home, only confusion about the future.
Not to mention that after returning from victory, he was not even a deserter, he was just a walking dead tool. He could speak even less than Xie Zhe, the manager.
For example, when he saw the two horned eagles that were not planning to slow down at all, the dignified minister of the Tantai family showed anger in his eyes.
Don’t bring this offering with you when you are seeking death!
Wu Riguang quickly bent down towards Lu Ze, turned around and gave a sharp shout.
"This blind thing doesn't even recognize me?!"
The rolling sound was like thunder, startling the two sprinting horned eagles to flap their wings. The young warrior with a cold face on the eagle's back quickly tightened the reins, looked forward in confusion, and then hurriedly lowered his head:
"Wu worships!"
"Is this how you treat distinguished guests when they come to our door? It's really a disgrace to our Tantai family!" Wu Riguang scolded him mercilessly, causing the two warriors to turn blue and white.
"If you don't want to lead the way for Mr. Lu, tell the manor to open the mountain gate and welcome the guests as distinguished guests!"
Wu Riguang's voice became more severe one after another, and his angry look was like a glaring King Kong. The faces of the two people began to turn pale in shock. His men quickly pulled the rope, and the horned eagles turned around to escort them from left to right.
Seeing the change in the expressions of the two men, Wu Riguang knew that there must be a problem in some part of his own party that got the news, otherwise the family leader Tantai Taoxue would not be like this.
The more tense the situation, the faster the reaction speed will be. Under the huge pressure from Lu Ze behind him, Wu Riguang finally showed his quick wit and asked directly without asking for confirmation: "Is the head of the family here?"
There is naturally only one person in charge of the family he is talking about - the head of the Tantai family, Tantai Taoism!
"The head of the family is in the ancestral hall... and has not been out for three days."
Sure enough there is a problem!
Wu Riguang cursed secretly in his heart, and finally stopped being polite.
"Where's Madam?"
"Madam is presiding over external matters." After the young warrior finished speaking, he heard the crunching sound of Wu Riguang's clenched fists, which made him tremble. He thought, when did Wu Riguang become so hostile to Madam?
Wu Riguang really wanted to call her a "prodigal bitch". She was good at everything in Tantai Taoism, but she was such a loser in getting this wife. She came from a small family with the surname Qu. She was good for nothing except that she was pretty, but she got more and more playful.
You can just show off your temper in normal times, but now you know that your son died in Mr. Lu's hands, what can you do?
Now is the time to play tricks!
Do you really want to take advantage of the rest of your family fortune after the death of the great elder?
Or should I tell you in the sky?
Raised by your maid!
Despite the scolding, he still had to fulfill his responsibility as a leader. Wu Riguang had never felt that he had to worry so much in his life.
"Who is helping Madam take care of it?" The wife of the house owner likes to meddle with power, but she is not a person who can do things. She must find two obedient people to make arrangements.
"Master Dongshu."
"I X..." Wu Riguang almost cursed.
None of them are really fuel-efficient lamps.
Tantai Dongshu is not the biological son of the wife of the house owner, but because his biological mother died of illness, he recognized Qu as his mother early on.
When Tantai was hiding, Tantai Dongshu didn't dare to act like a monster. Now that they are out, this kid must be the one to bewitch them.
"You two lead the way!"
After giving another stern warning, Wu Riguang turned around, clasped his fists at Lu Ze, who was looking at him delicately, and said sincerely: "Mr. Lu, please allow Wu to take a step ahead and invite the head of the family out of the ancestral hall."
"Thank you." Lu Ze smiled and nodded.
Obviously he was forced to return because of the situation, but at this moment Wu Riguang was really grateful to Lu Ze, and under such circumstances, he was willing to give himself a chance to save things in advance.
The Tantai family did not treat guests well, and what they lost was not Lu Ze's face, but most likely the Tantai family's... human lives!
[If the former head of the family had not been so kind to Wu, I would have cared about your life and death! ? 】
With a fierce look in his eyes, Wu Riguang jumped deep and stepped on his feet.
Two green-green circular air waves suddenly exploded in the sky.
Double stack in the air!
This is Wu Riguang's signature feature, so when he fell from the sky with great momentum, the guards of Tantai Villa below all looked up with their hands tied, with confusion in their eyes.
"Wu Riguang invites the master of the family to come out of the mountain gate——"
"Please, the master of the house - come out of the mountain gate -"
The rich voice echoed on the top of the mountains, and even spread across the villa through layers of barriers.
Um?
In the ancestral hall deep in the villa, Tantai Taoist, who was kneeling on the ground, lowered his head and listened to an old man with white hair and beard slowly telling something about something, had a look in his eyes, turned back sharply, and knitted his eyebrows.
Wu Riguang?
"There is a woman in the Song family named Yingzi, who is the cousin of Elder Tianhua. She is thirty-seven this year and has never been married. Taoism, you can marry her as your official wife." The white-haired old man also glanced outside the ancestral hall, and then slowly Xu said.
When Tantai Taoist heard this, he pursed his lips tightly, and his cheek muscles trembled for a moment, and then he kowtowed respectfully, "Taoism is useless, the Supreme Elder has troubled himself. What you taught is that when the opportunity passes... it is passed."
His tone was full of emotion, and the "opportunity" he said also had many meanings, but at this moment he was referring to the lady sitting in the villa.
No, from now on, I am no longer Madam.
At this moment, reluctance flashed deep in Tantai Taoxue's eyes, but was quickly replaced by determination.
For the continuation of the family, someone must sacrifice.
The white-haired old man had all the expressions of Tantai Taoism in his eyes, but did not show any special application. There was a nostalgia in his voice that recalled the past and the vicissitudes of the world.
"My destiny is approaching, and I will devote my whole life to the family business. I just don't want to leave with any regrets before I leave."
As he spoke, the old man casually made a move, and the thickest trunk of the peach tree outside the ancestral hall broke silently, with the peach blossoms and leaves shaking off. When it flew into the old man's palm, even the surface of the trunk was broken due to some kind of... The penetration of power produced a slight luster like glue paint, completely transforming into the shape of a cane.
"Let's go, Tao Xue, I will accompany you to see the scenery of this villa... What a pleasant weather it is."
The old man walked out of the ancestral hall for the first time on crutches. When he stepped out, he squinted his eyes and looked up at the sky.
The sun shines through the curling smoke and clouds, like golden threads, and the deep sky is looming blue and white. The mist is like a gauze, making the beautiful scenery even more hazy.
The old man smiled, shook his head, and walked out first.
Behind him, Tantai Taoxue stood up and was stunned on the spot. When he saw the old man stepping out of the ancestral hall, his eyes, which were usually the most profound... turned red.
The family will have no worries for the next hundred years if they have a great elder.
The family has been in the family for three decades, and although the Supreme Old Man does not appear in front of others, he is actually the dragon's spine on the top of this mountain!
After the Great Elder took charge of the work, the Supreme Elder has not left the ancestral hall for twenty years...
Today's walk is a way to relax and teach, but it is more like saying goodbye.
Tantai Taoxue clenched his fists, but finally let go, and followed him out of the family ancestral hall with his head lowered.
…
…
"boom!"
Wu Riguang landed directly on the square in front of the gate with a surging and violent force. His astonishing power really scared the surrounding tribesmen!
Just a few days ago, Zhao Luanyan, the number one worshiper of the Zhao family, came here and made a big noise, but was directly beaten away by the great elder.
Therefore, except for the great elder, the Tantai tribe has never seen anyone dare to be so presumptuous in front of the villa gate.
"I have already reported this to the head of the family. We, the Tantai family, have distinguished guests here. Why don't you line up to welcome them!"
"If there is an accident, you can bear the responsibility!"
Wu Riguang's eyes were as bright as lightning. When he was not with Lu Ze, his 2-meter-long body was upright and filled with a strong aura, which was truly terrifying.
The Tantai military guards were silent and did not dare to speak. At this time, a cold voice came from the villa.
"Wu Zongfeng, the way you are yelling and screaming is really not like the... worshiper of my Tantai family!"
The last two sarcastic words were emphatically spoken, and a figure in a green robe stepped out of the front door and looked at each other coldly.
That young face turned out to be that of Tantai Dongshu, who once appeared in the thatched cottage of the Shijia ancestors and happened to watch the Shijia ancestors disintegrate and die!
When he appeared, the more than thirty Tantai military guards bowed at the same time.
Because since half a month ago, the news that Tantai Zang might have died has spread in private, and Tantai Dongshu, a brilliant man among the three generations of the family, has become the most likely candidate to replace Tantai Zang.
He has the strength of a 10-star war king, and he also recognizes Mrs. Qu as his mother. It can be said that he is impeccable in terms of personal strength and family background.
Moreover, Tantai Zang went to meet the Shijia ancestors as the only representative of the family even after not showing up for a long time. This undoubtedly announced a signal to everyone in the villa - Tantai Dongshu is very likely to become the successor of the family!
So when he appeared now, even though he was young, he possessed extraordinary power.
Wu Riguang looked at that face, anger igniting in his heart, but in his ears came the increasingly closer call of an eagle. He suppressed his anger and tried to make his voice calm.
"Master Dongshu, go back, there are some things you cannot afford."
Tantai Dongshu's eyes were sinister, but in the blink of an eye, he put on a smile, but he said with a smile: "Wu Zongfeng, you really forgot the rules of the villa. Also, can you bear it? It’s not up to you, the priest, to decide whether you can afford it or not!”
These words immediately caused an uproar, and Tantai Dongshu suddenly attacked without mercy.
Wu Riguang's cheek muscles twitched, and it was no longer possible to suppress the anger in his heart.
"Master Dongshu, I'm sorry. Leave the matter here to Wu."
He clasped his fists expressionlessly and stepped out. The huge square seemed to be hit by an earthquake, and he turned into an afterimage and rushed straight towards the mountain gate.
The guards didn't react at all and saw the strong wind passing in front of them.
Tantai Dongshu narrowed his eyes and clenched his fists. He was not afraid. All he felt at this moment was shame and annoyance.
"Elder Jin Yuan."
He remained motionless and spoke a name.
Wu Riguangren was still halfway there when he suddenly felt something bad. He saw an afterimage suddenly shot out from behind the Tantai East Tree, and a twisted ripple arced across the afterimage and landed in front of him!
There was a loud bang!
The wind suddenly stopped.
A burly figure staggered backwards out of the strong wind, looking forward in shock and anger.
"Elder Jin Yuan, you are crazy, how can you help him deal with me!"
"Wu Zongfeng, I think you are crazy. In our Tantai family for thousands of years, when has such a ridiculous thing happened?" A middle-aged man with a slightly graying crew cut stood in front of the mountain gate with his hands behind his hands, a square face and sharp eyebrows. , Don’t be angry and be proud.
Wu Riguang's teeth gritted and he really wanted to rush up and slap this old stubborn man.
You idiots didn't see that scene in the wilderness, how could you know how terrifying that man named Lu was!
"What Elder Jin Yuan said is absolutely true. Wu Zongfeng has been out for a long time, and he is actually preparing to become the master of the villa." Tantai Dongshu added a sentence at the right time, his tone was light, but his thoughts were extremely cruel.
"My father was asking questions at the ancestral hall, and my mother assigned me to handle the affairs of the villa. How could it be that everything was fine and things turned out to be inappropriate in Wu Gongfang's mouth?"
Raised by your maid!
Veins popped out on Wu Riguang's forehead.
If he had known this earlier, he would never have served as the leader.
Elder Zhongjin dug a sinkhole for himself!
What the fuck...
Wu Riguang pulled out his right fist, really ready to give the boy a hard slap, but the momentum suddenly stopped as soon as he started.
On the opposite side, Elder Jin Yuan, who was originally calm and arrogant, his pupils shrank suddenly.
Because of the sudden thought, without any warning at all, a hand was placed on Wu Riguang's shoulder. Without any force, it seemed as if Wu Riguang's whole body's energy was frozen.
The slightly distorted light and shadow transition from virtual to real very quickly.
Lu Ze patted Wu Riguang's broad shoulder, landed lightly on his toes, and then walked forward unhurriedly, with a half-smile on his face.
"Don't fight or kill me. I, Lu Ze, am not unreasonable."
It's obviously a comfort...
But at this moment, all the hairs on Wu Riguang's back exploded. He looked at the passing figure in horror. When he was about to hit Elder Jin Yuan, it strangely stretched into a twisted afterimage, appearing in front of him. Behind Elder Jin Yuan.
Then he climbed up the steps step by step and appeared in front of Tantai Dongshu. He stretched out a palm to support Tantai Dongshu's sneering left face. In the face of the other party's astonished expression, he smiled and said softly:
"roll."
