Liang Ji couldn't care less about this weird feeling and just asked, "How is it? What's the result?"
Liang Yi sighed and shook his head, "Grandpa has been in an extremely bad mood recently. He left before he even said a few words."
"How could this happen?" Mrs. Liang Ji didn't believe it. She pulled Fang Jiao, "Didn't you say that my grandfather has always been easy-going and easy to talk to?" This description does not really refer to personality, but can completely rely on resources and benefits. It’s the kind of attitude that doesn’t refuse anyone who comes.
However, Liang Yi's sincerity in reporting "the Liang family's century-old savings" was revealed. This was so different from his original attitude that Liang Ji and his wife questioned whether what Liang Yi said was true or false.
Liang Yi could clearly feel the gazes of Liang Ji and his wife. He was not angry but comforted, "This matter is indeed strange. I only found out after asking about it later. My grandfather's only son was recently punished and was locked up in the Wind Cave for ten years." , so I feel uneasy."
"It's a pity." Fang Wei suddenly murmured, "Originally, I wanted to rely on my family's connections to get Zhao Ning to marry my grandfather's only son, but it just ended."
It was said that they were "promising each other", but in fact everyone understood that they were just sending them as concubines. After all, one was a disciple of the Niguang Sect and the other was not, and the other was just an illegitimate daughter of the Liang family.
But when Fang Jiao mentioned this sentence in this way, it was obviously a hint, so that Mrs. Liang Ji suddenly had an idea and blurted it out.
"Then send Zhao Ning to the Yinfeng Cave to stay with that young master for ten years!"
As soon as these words came out, there was silence in the main hall, and then began to whisper.
Liang Ji was stunned and subconsciously stopped his wife, "No, madam, she is... she still has a chance. You have forgotten the old Taoist priest."
Mrs. Liang Ji threw his hand away and asked, "It has been sixteen years and the old Taoist priest has not come yet. She is just a wild girl who cannot practice. What can she practice behind the old Taoist priest?" I have been here secretly for sixteen years, and gave up as soon as I saw this girl’s condition!”
Liang Ji was startled by what she said, but Mrs. Liang Ji had already gone to beg Fang Ji, "It doesn't matter if Grandpa is in a bad mood, as long as he coaxes the young master well. The young master can't practice in the dark wind cave and is boring, so send Zhao Ning in to coax him." He is happy, and my grandfather will definitely be happy when he finds out, so we can ask him again, ah, do you think this is right? This method will definitely work, right?"
Fang Wei didn't speak. She suddenly looked outside. Several people around her were also looking in that direction unexpectedly.
As a result, Liang Ji and his wife had to look towards the door. The dusk light lengthened the shadow of the girl at the door. She seemed to be standing in the light, but was blurred.
"Zhao Ning?" Fang Wei shouted, then turned away from Mrs. Liang Ji and approached Zhao Ning with a smile, "Zhao Ning, when did you come? Why did you come so quietly? Aunt Wei was shocked."
She pulled Zhao Ning in, but Zhao Ning avoided her hand, only stared at Mrs. Liang Ji, and asked, "Mother, do you know what it means for a person with no cultivation skills to go to Yinfeng Cave to accompany the foundation builder for ten years?" What?"
These words were plain and indifferent, but they sounded extremely cold to the ears of Liang Ji and his wife.
Of course Mrs. Liang Ji knew what it meant, but she didn't care about Zhao Ning at the moment.
She said ruthlessly, "Don't call me mother. You're just a wild girl I brought back. You didn't come out of my belly. You were born in a cultivation family and have no cultivation. You were supposed to make the final contribution to the family. I hope you have a good life, and I ask you to serve the foundation, so that you can climb high!"
Zhao Ning's eyes turned cold after hearing this. She turned her eyes to Liang Ji and asked, "Father, what about you? Do you think so too? Even if I am not her child, I should still be of your blood. Do you want to be so cruel?"
Liang Ji looked at her. There was struggle in his expression, but it was not the struggle between father and daughter, but the hesitation of fear of powerful revenge.
Mrs. Liang Ji stretched out her hand and pinched him, and reminded him sharply, "Do you still want to save Di'er? Do you still want to let Di'er become the genius of Jiuzhou and the master of Yuanshen!"
Liang Ji was probably stimulated by such words. He tentatively said to Zhao Ning, "Zhao Ning, it's okay. When daughters grow up, they all have to get married. It's just a matter between men and women. Even if it's cold in Yinfeng Cave, , with the young master of the Fang family protecting you, nothing will happen to you."
Fang Wei was still beside him and echoed, "Zhao Ning, Aunt Wei knew it, but she felt a little bitter for you. But before, on the ship, Aunt Wei communicated with you. She originally wanted to marry you to Master Fang Heng." Yes, you didn’t refuse. It’s just a change from the Neon Sect to the Dark Wind Cave, there’s not much change, is there?”
When the name Fang Heng came out, the figure that appeared on the ship at that time jumped into Zhao Ning's mind again.
But what if Fang Heng is the god who has been guarding her since childhood, not to mention that there is always doubt between the two identities.
Zhao Ning glanced across the crowd. Everyone either agreed with Fang Jiao's statement or turned a blind eye.
Liang Yi spoke up at the right time, drawing everyone's attention. He said to Zhao Ning, "Zhao Ning, the thing is like this. Didn't you say before that only Naxin Dan can solve Xuandi's obliviousness? These days We searched everywhere, and only the Neon Sect has it. There is really no other way, so you understand how your parents feel and save your brother."
Zhao Ning stared at him, and the coolness in her eyes made Liang Yi feel a slight shiver. Her eyes seemed to see through everything, which made Liang Yi's scalp tighten.
Unexpectedly, Mrs. Liang Ji spoke again at this time, "Zhao Ning, save Xuandi. Xuandi has watched you grow up since he was a child, and he plays and chats with you every day. Do you really want Xuandi to be here?" If you lie in bed for the rest of your life, do you really want Xuandi to be ruined for the rest of his life?"
Of course Zhao Ning didn't want to. Liang Ji and his wife might be alienated from her, but Liang Xuandi was her real brother. If Zhao Ning didn't have such thoughts, she would not have approached Liang Xuandi's room that day and would not have expressed her feelings. Dan.
She stared at Liang Ji and his wife, and suddenly laughed softly, with a cold voice.
"You are forcing me like this, does your brother know?"
Liang Ji and his wife were shocked, but saw Zhao Ning turn around and ran out of the main hall.
"Zhao Ning!" Liang Ji and his wife chased after him.
Liang Yi and others were still sitting firmly. Fang Wei looked at this situation and still murmured, "This little girl is suffering too much."
But it was obviously her who pushed Zhao Ning into this abyss step by step.
"...But it would be a good deal to let this little girl take the place of Master Fang Heng's happiness and ask Grandfather for a place as a registered disciple."
This sentence was not hidden. There were seven or eight elders of the Liang family present, but they did not refute it, and some even laughed because of it.
Liang Ji's lineage has been abolished, and he is still treating him politely just to squeeze out the last bit of value.
However, some people are still a little worried, "That boy Xuandi still has some real temperament. Let the fourth girl ask if it will change the minds of Liang Ji and his wife."
"No... you don't really understand this kid Liang Xuandi." Liang Yi squinted his eyes and leaned on the back of his chair, a shrewd and vicious flash in his eyes, "Liang Xuandi's recovery of Dantian is definitely not something that happened just this time. He at least It has been half a year since he recovered, but he still tolerated it for half a year, and let Liang Ji and his family live in shadow, humiliation and oppression. It was not until the Ansui Island Competition that he became a blockbuster, letting everyone see his cultivation and strength. , which itself shows that he is actually a self-centered person."
"Just wait and see, that little girl Zhao Ning will still be able to catch her without any help."
Zhao Ning pushed open the door of Liang Xuandi's room and sealed the door again. When Liang Ji and his wife came after them, they couldn't push the door open and could only slap on the door in panic.
"Has Naxindan been found?"
Tongtian Lingbao jumped out and conveyed Liang Xuandi's voice.
Zhao Ning entered the room, and her steps suddenly slowed down. Until she reached the bed, Zhao Ning suddenly called out, "Brother."
She looked very sad at the moment.
Liang Xuandi's voice also lowered, and he asked with some caution, "What's wrong? What happened."
"They want me to go to the Yinfeng Cave of the Niguang Sect to serve the young master of the Fang family for ten years..." Zhao Ning murmured, "My parents also agreed."
"What? Are my parents crazy? What are they going to do? Are they going to sell their daughter?!" Liang Xuandi shouted angrily.
It was deafening to hear, but it gave Zhao Ning a rare thing called family love.
Liang Xuandi cursed several times, saying that Liang Ji and his wife had become unreliable, that Liang Ji and his wife must have been deceived by Liang Yi, and that Liang Ji and his wife must have been too impatient to let Zhao Ning do it. Keep it in mind...
After all this, Liang Xuandi slowed down, and seeing that Zhao Ning's expression was still sad, he said again, "It's okay, Zhao Ning, don't be afraid. When you find the Naxin Pill, your brother and I will be able to stand up. Then I will If you argue with them in person, the worst case scenario is that I will take you and your parents away from the Liang family!"
Hearing him mention Naxin Dan, Zhao Ning looked at him and didn't hide anything. She just said, "Naxin Dan is only available in the Niguang Sect's outer exchange pavilion. According to them, they want to exchange me for the young master of the Fang family." , Grandpa is happy so that he can get the Naxin Dan."
As soon as these words came out, Liang Xuandi's voice suddenly disappeared, and his eyes widened.
Tongtian Lingbao's childlike voice came, "The world is in a hot and cold world, the world is in a cold and cold world."
Liang Xuandi's voice squeezed out his voice again, "No, we can't do this. We won't talk about their bastard business of selling their daughter, but just talk about coaxing the grandfather of the Fang family, so what? That guy Liang Yi really keeps his promise." Can you give me the Naxin Dan instead? It’s a joke!”
Liang Xuandi's statement is not wrong, and is even a very rational analysis, but such words have already demonstrated Liang Yi's evaluation to a certain extent.
His focus is on Naxindan.
But for Zhao Ning, it was enough that Liang Xuandi could make a fair judgment on this matter. Such a brother was her brother.
So, Zhao Ning said that again, "Brother, I want to leave."
Once upon a time, when Liang Xuandi heard Zhao Ning's words on the ship, he thought that Zhao Ning wanted to seek his help and take her away from the Liang family. Now, Liang Xuandi still thinks like this.
Leaving the Liang family means that the grace of childbirth is cut off. From then on, you will have no father, no mother, and no home.
After a moment of silence, Liang Xuandi suddenly said, "Zhao Ning, if you don't have the Xinxin Pill, there are other ways!"
Zhao Ning looked at him in surprise and said with great joy, "What else can I do?"
Liang Xuandi's eyes were fixed on Zhao Ning's eyebrows. Suddenly there was no sound from Tongtian Lingbao. Zhao Ning's heart felt slightly cold, but she heard the child's voice of Tongtian Lingbao speaking instead of Liang Xuandi.
"Lend him your Dachun leaf. He can absorb the aspect of sitting and forgetting and seal the power of the ban better than Naxindan."
The coolness seemed to freeze Zhao Ning's heart, and she suddenly stood up from the bed.
"No, Zhao Ning, you misunderstood! Brother didn't mean to take your things away!" Liang Xuandi squeezed out Tongtian Lingbao's emotionless voice, as if he was really afraid that Zhao Ning would misunderstand, and hurriedly explained, "I just I want to use it to restore my power of movement, and then I will take you and your parents away to find the Jindan master, or...or other Daze, and wait until I find a way to break through the sitting and forgetting phase, brother When I recover, I will return the Great Chun Leaf to you."
Liang Xuandi tried to explain his thoughts clearly and expressed that he had fully considered Zhao Ning's situation, "Zhao Ning, I know that this big chun leaf was given to you by the old Taoist priest in order to absorb and seal the large birthmark on your body. Don’t worry, big brother will never let others judge your birthmark. When big brother recovers, you will be able to return to your current appearance."
"Zhao Ning, this should be the most appropriate solution now."
Zhao Ning knew that what he said was actually reasonable. For Zhao Ning, the birthmark didn't matter, and he didn't care about the comments. However, asking her to give a red leaf between her eyebrows seemed to be giving away the treasure that belonged to her in this life.
She weakly took two steps backward.
"Zhao Ning?"
Liang Xuandi called hesitantly, then sighed loudly and said, "If this doesn't work, what should I do... What if, according to what they said..."
He didn't know what he thought, but the Tongtian Lingbao actually flew in front of Zhao Ning and said, "Zhao Ning, you said the name of the person you wanted to serve was Fang Heng? Could it be the man he met on the ship that day? He seemed to have saved If it's him, if it's him...Zhao Ning, will this be God blessing you again? Think about it, you always have the opportunity to go out to clear the sky and go into the mountains to eliminate the miasma. Now you are facing such a situation The situation is actually a reincarnation from a desperate situation, and I don’t think I’m going to torture anyone, so why don’t I have a good talk with him and ask him to give me a Heart-Enhancing Pill?”
God bless? That is the immortal who is always guarding you.
Zhao Ning knew that the god had not left, he was still hiding beside her, otherwise the injury on his wrist would not have healed overnight.
Zhao Ning knew that she might turn danger into disaster in the end, but this experience made her suddenly see clearly about Liang Ji's lineage. Just like at this moment, she stared at Liang Xuandi, slowly closed her eyes, and took a breath , asked as calmly as possible.
"Brother, if you were me, what would you do?"
Liang Xuandi didn't understand the meaning, and the words came out smoothly, "Of course, save the eldest brother first."
In fact, up to this moment, Zhao Ning asked him to put himself in his shoes. He had already put himself in his own shoes. Those words he once said, "Go away, don't touch my sister", "I tell you, as long as I am here, my sister will never "I will give it to a prodigal monk like you", "If he dares to rob you on the spot, my elder brother will gouge out his eyes"... It is deafening and touching, but in fact, what he says is always false. Until this moment, Liang Xuan In fact, Di was just a member of Zhao Ning who was "kidnapped" by family ties.
Zhao Ning will not judge whether Liang Xuandi's ideas and actions are wrong or right. After all, it is natural for everyone to do it for themselves.
She didn't say anything else, just turned and walked towards the door. Liang Xuandi probably realized something. The Tongtian Lingbao Pearl chased Zhao Ning, "Wait, Zhao Ning, did the elder brother say something wrong? I apologize to you, Zhao Ning." , don’t go.”
Zhao Ning had already opened the door directly.
Probably because he was afraid that there was someone standing outside the door who shouldn't know about the Tongtian Lingbao, the bead was retracted in an instant, and the room was quiet again.
Liang Ji and his wife, who were still guarding the door, hadn't left yet. When they saw Zhao Ning opening the door, they bumped Zhao Ning away and rushed to the room to see Liang Xuandi, as if they were afraid that Zhao Ning would kill Liang Xuandi.
Until he saw Liang Xuandi's eyes widened and he glanced desperately in the direction of Zhao Ning.
Liang Ji asked, "What did you say to Di'er? Do you want Di'er to die?"
Mrs. Liang Ji used her sleeves to stroke the non-existent sweat on Liang Xuandi's head. She did not look at Zhao Ning and only comforted her in a low voice, "Don't be afraid Di'er, you will be able to stand up soon, and you will recover soon." . Mom found out where Naxindan is."
"You also agree to let Zhao Ning exchange for the Naxin Pill? After raising the child to this age, it is time to pay for the family and the eldest brother."
Liang Xuandi suddenly realized something, glared at Mrs. Liang Ji, and stared at Zhao Ning again, trying to convey his thoughts at the moment with his eyes.
——Zhao Ning, the eldest brother was wrong. Only then did the eldest brother understand that there is no need for you to pay for the eldest brother, and there is no need for you to take risks for the eldest brother.
But Zhao Ning no longer went to see him.
Her expression seemed to be completely calm, and she fully accepted what she was about to do.
He looked at Liang Ji calmly and asked, "Father, am I your biological flesh and blood?"
Liang Ji was suddenly startled. He didn't know why Zhao Ning was asking like this at this moment, but Mrs. Liang Ji had been tense since the main hall until now.
