In the evening, I heard that the banquet had dispersed.
I heard that the banquet was supposed to last all day and night, but I heard that they had changed their minds and ended it early.
While the servants were cleaning the garden, Wen Renjie, who had been greeting guests all day, disappeared for a moment. When he reappeared, he had changed into white clothes and came to Lin Ji and the others.
"You three, come with me." After Wen Renjie finished speaking, he turned around and led the way without waiting for Lin Ji and the others to agree.
Under the leadership of Wen Renjie, a group of people came to Wen Renjie's back house.
At the same time, Lin Ji keenly discovered that whether they were Wenren's family members or servants coming and going in the back house, they were either wearing white clothes or wearing white silk scarves on their arms.
This is showing 'filial piety'.
"I heard that the master of the house is an old lady." Lin Ji asked with some concern.
"No." Before Lin Ji could finish speaking, Wen Renjie shook his head and slowed down.
He turned his head and his eyes fell on Fang Qing first, and then looked at Lin Ji.
"I think she can't remember anything at this time. Senior Lin, do you want to hear the cause and effect of the matter?"
Lin Ji was confused, and when he heard Wen Renjie say that Fang Qing couldn't remember, he immediately understood that the weirdness was indeed related to Fang Qing.
"Appreciate further details."
Wen Renjie nodded, continued to lead the way, and said softly: "We heard that his family is from the Central Plains, and he was originally a famous family in the Nine Provinces of the Central Plains. However, he was on the wrong side of the incident a thousand years ago, so he became lonely."
"Thousands of years ago?" Lin Ji suddenly understood, "Da Qin?"
"Yes." Wen Renjie said helplessly, "Back then, our ancestors felt that it would be as difficult as climbing to the sky if the Qin family wanted to achieve anything, so they always opposed the Qin family. Later, when the Qin family became successful, Wen Renjie wanted to avoid the Qin family's revenge, so they simply We left the hinterland of the Central Plains and headed north to Yunzhou."
"Yunzhou? So why did you go to the far north again? Was it because the Qin family didn't want to let you go?"
Wen Renjie shook his head.
"This Jingchuan City was built by the I Wen family. However, thousands of years have passed and I Wen family has never taken credit, so many people have forgotten it."
“The Far North today was also part of Yunzhou back then.”
"Is there such a thing?" Lin Ji was a little surprised. "The Far North is also Yunzhou? But it is clear that today's Yunzhou is completely different from the Far North. They are almost completely different."
In the far north is the Holy Fire Cult, a barbarian tribe.
Although Yunzhou is adjacent to the Far North, it is ultimately a place for people from the Central Plains.
Although there are worlds apart between the two places, it is difficult to find any common ground.
Wen Renjie smiled.
"Senior Lin has been to Tianjing City, right?"
"Of course I've been there."
"Why is Tianjing Tianjing?"
"Because the northern dragon veins converge, and the northern dragon veins go straight down from Yunzhou and end at Longshou Mountain, Tianjing City was formed based on the gathering of dragon energy."
After listening to Lin Ji's narration, Wen Renjie sighed: "Today's Northern Dragon Vein is just a broken dragon vein. Three hundred years ago, someone had a thought and cut off the tail of the Northern Dragon Vein."
"What?!" Lin Jitong suddenly shrank.
Cut off the tail of the dragon vein?
This is easy to say, but in Lin Ji's opinion, what kind of cause and effect does this have? …
Wen Renjie continued: "Since then, the distinction between Extreme North and Yunzhou has really emerged."
"Yunzhou not only has the northern dragon vein, but it also belongs to the Kyushu of the Central Plains. The dragon vein has its tail cut off, and Yunzhou also has the fate of the nine states, so it is not affected too much."
"But it's different in the Far North. Only the dragon's tail veins are left, which naturally greatly reduces the luck of the Far North. As a result, the barbarians in the Far North can no longer be self-sufficient. As a result, the weather in the Far North is getting worse and worse. It’s almost impossible for people to survive.”
Hearing this, Lin Ji suddenly realized.
"So the bad conditions in the Far North are all due to the severed dragon vein?"
This made sense right away.
With a state's luck cut off, no wonder the far north has become so desolate.
"So who is so bold and dares to take action against Dragon Vein?"
"Qiuru-kun."
"Leader of the Holy Fire Cult." Lin Ji had heard this name from Lu Nanting and Qin Jinsong.
Wen Renjie nodded and stopped outside the gate of an inner courtyard.
The door in front of him was ajar, but Wen Renjie didn't go any further.
He turned to look at Lin Ji and said: "Although the Holy Fire Sect was extremely powerful in the far north at that time, it still had to face harassment from the Qin Dynasty from time to time. Although the barbarians had been plundering south for thousands of years, they had always come and gone before. Return. And after the Qin family succeeds, it will be difficult for the barbarians to gain anything from going south. The Suppression of the North Army is not a wasted reputation."
"The totems that the barbarians believe in are just a joke. The Holy Fire Cult may not have a good reputation in the Central Plains, but in the North, the Manchus believe in the Holy Fire Cult more than their own totems."
"And the Holy Fire Sect is indeed worthy of this trust. Qiu Rujun did not hesitate to pay a huge price for this. He shook the Northern Dragon Vein with the Taoist Realm and separated the Extreme North and Yunzhou into two parts."
"She originally wanted to turn the severed dragon tail into a complete dragon vein. From then on, the extreme north can be self-sufficient and no longer need to have anything to do with Kyushu. However, this incident alarmed the powerful monks of Kyushu."
Hearing this, Lin Ji already understood the general idea.
"The Northern Dragon Vein is related to Tianjing City's luck, and Tianjing City's luck is related to almost all high-level monks in Kyushu. Qiu Rujun's actions are tantamount to snatching food from the tiger's mouth."
Wen Renjie nodded slightly.
"So, when Qiu Rujun cut off her dragon veins and her vitality was severely damaged, several Taoist monks from the Central Plains went north and forced her to die in the extreme north. And she had to turn the avenue into a holy fire and spread it across the world. time, so that he can be resurrected in the future."
Having said this, Wen Renjie sighed and opened the door to the inner courtyard in front of him.
Lin Ji looked inside and saw an old woman sitting quietly on a recliner in the courtyard, swaying back and forth.
"Auntie, they are here." Wen Renjie bowed, then turned and left, closing the door.
Lin Ji and the others walked into the inner courtyard.
On the recliner, Wenren's ancestor Wenren Ting slowly opened her eyes.
Although she already looks old, her youthful beauty can be seen in her eyebrows.
However, Lin Ji's face soon showed a bit of surprise.
"Senior, may I ask if you will live longer this year?" Lin Ji asked rather abruptly.
Wen Renting responded with a smile: "He must be three or four hundred years old, I can't remember the details."
Lin Ji smiled bitterly.
"Lin used the power of his soul to investigate, but found that you have no cultivation level and are just a mortal."
"So be it."
Seeing the other party nodding, Lin Ji sighed.
He has already guessed the purpose of this trip.
"It's really unexpected."
Lin Ji turned to look at Fang Qing. Seeing that Fang Qing still looked confused, he turned to look at Beishang.
"Do you feel anything?"
"Feeling?" Beishang thought for a while and said, "I feel like this old lady is a little familiar."
Lin Ji chuckled.
"Oh, of course you are familiar with it."
