"Are you saying that those big aristocratic families have unique methods of cultivating consciousness, but your Chen family doesn't?"
"Yes, this is why I went through so much trouble to hold the ceremony. This was also the old man's wish during his lifetime."
Chenyu sighed and told the whole story.
After Chen Rulong escaped, Li Yi lit the candle again and pressed the Eight Immortals table against the damaged door. He blocked the other side with his body and listened to Chen Yu's words.
It turns out that due to the rapid rise of the Chen family and the rising power of Chen Rulong, the Wang family, which was originally at the intersection of forces, has been constantly having friction with the Chen family in recent years.
Although Chen Rulong's intimidating power was still there, the Wang family, which lacked top-notch combat power in this area, did not have too much entanglement.
But this doesn't mean that the Wang family won't make some small moves.
for example......
"I'll blanch it! It's awesome!" After hearing Chen Yu's words, Li Yi was stunned. He even felt that the head of the Wang family had some ideas.
Anyone who can think of this method can be regarded as a talent even in the former Blue Star.
After Chen Yu briefly introduced the current situation of the Chen family, Li Yi was even more impressed by the head of the Wang family whom he had never met before.
So with the lack of high-end combat power, what method did the head of the Wang family use to deal with the Chen family?
It's very simple to say, so simple that it's hard to believe.
"Corrupt the mind?"
"Yes, the Wang family runs many entertainment venues. It is not an exaggeration to describe it as "all five poisons". And because our Chen family has some forces that are bordering the Wang family, Wang Ren, the current head of the Wang family, After knowing this, I took the initiative to withdraw my sphere of influence. At that time, I thought that the other party was showing weakness, so I agreed to some of the requests made by the other party."
Chenyu sighed.
"What I didn't expect was that it was these seemingly inconspicuous 'small businesses' that caused the originally prosperous Chen family to slowly slip into the abyss."
Hearing this, Li Yi couldn't help but nodded in agreement.
"Yes, sugar-coated bullets are the hardest to resist. What you fear most is not the battlefield, but the gentle countryside!"
Chen Yu also looked enlightened.
"I was confused at that time, thinking that with the help of the old man's reputation, even a thousand-year-old aristocratic family would not dare to touch his edge. How could I have expected that these thousand-year-old aristocratic families are so vicious and would choose such despicable methods! Eh! "
"It's not entirely the fault of others. If you are mentally strong enough, you won't be affected too much. In the final analysis, the root of the problem is still within you. You still need to be strong to strike the iron!"
"What you said is right, but by the time I discovered something was wrong, it was already too late. The Chen family in this area were all turned into waste by the Wang family's methods. They were all possessed of the five poisons, and now they have all come to my Chen family. .”
"And your Chen family doesn't have the foundation of a thousand-year-old family, and naturally there is no way to cultivate consciousness. You can only rely on rituals to support the dead Chen Rulong for a period of time? The idea is quite beautiful, but you haven't thought about it. , aren’t there any external factors that caused this current situation?”
"External factors? You mean..."
Chen Yu was stunned and blurted out a question.
Li Yi looked thoughtful and expressed his inference.
"Haven't you noticed? In addition to the reason why the great families can be passed down for thousands of years, which is what you want to do now, the inheritance and foundation of wisdom are the most fundamental reason for the longevity of these families. The reason is, I guess these aristocratic families should also have gone through an era of sluggishness and lack of strong guardians, but in the end they managed to survive and became stronger, haven't you ever thought about the reason?"
"Besides strength, is there anything else?"
"Huh... If we don't say that those thousand-year-old families are like behemoths that cannot be overthrown, that's it. In fact, after thousands of years of fighting, the families that are still standing must have a set of countermeasures passed down from generation to generation, and there are more than just a few of them. Force, or in other words, being able to conquer the world on horseback does not mean that you can still defend your own world after dismounting. I even think that these powerful families have already started planning since the birth of your ancestor. Everything, especially the Wang family you’re talking about.”
Chen Yu was dumbfounded and suddenly felt enlightened.
He is not a stupid person, and a stupid person cannot become the head of the Chen family of this generation. Coupled with his strong mind and other reasons, he is actually barely qualified as a head of the family.
But if you are fighting against those wealthy and powerful families who are hiding in the dark and will not confront you head-on, but will stumble and play tricks on you secretly.
With Chen Yu's methods and knowledge, he would probably be several blocks ahead of his opponent.
For example, now, as an outsider, Li Yi thinks that the Chen family was designed decades ago, but Chen Yu is still struggling with sugar-coated bullets from his opponents.
It's just that the enemies have reached the eighth floor, and you are still sighing on the second floor.
At this point, how could Chen Yu not be convinced by Li Yi? Originally, he only had a perfunctory respect, but he also unknowingly became sincere.
"Senior, I wonder if you can give me some pointers."
Although he didn't know the specific age of the person opposite him, based on Chen Yu's thinking, just by talking to him, he could figure out that a person of this level would naturally not be a young man with junior qualifications.
Although the other party's voice sounds very young, there must have been some trick used to do it!
Although warriors emphasize the value of force, it is an act that goes against the will of heaven. Therefore, many warriors are good at looking good. It is not unusual to make themselves younger. Chen Yu naturally thinks so.
If Li Yi knew what the other party was thinking at this moment, he would probably give him a big fight and then walk away.
How long has it been and you are still thinking about whether these things are there or not? There is no mud on the wall!
"I think the most important thing you should do at this time is not only to let your ancestors return to their positions as guardians as soon as possible, but also to keep an eye on the next generation of your family. I think, at this time, now that your family has confirmed this There is no threat to this generation. If you are slow, you will think that you can just destroy your ancestors and return them to their throne. As for the quick..."
After listening to what Li Yi said, Chen Yu suddenly felt an unprecedented sense of urgency, which made him no longer want to ask Li Yi for advice.
"Quick! Bring over all the children under the age of ten in the family. Remember, it's everyone! No one is missing! If there is one missing, you all come to see me!"
Seeing that the other party left voluntarily, Li Yi broke off contact and focused his thoughts here again. After all, what would happen to the world over there? He could only provide some ideas for the other party's reference. He could not control the specific actions.
And the reason why he gave advice to the Chen family was not out of good intentions.
In his opinion, none of these wealthy families are good things.
The reason why he chose to help the Chen family was just to temporarily escape from the current situation.
Maybe you would think that Li Yi was out of danger under the mysterious light.
In fact, the danger is far from over. During the past period, in addition to talking to the world on the other side, Li Yi was constantly observing the conditions inside and outside the room under the mysterious light.
He discovered some anomalies that he had to pay attention to.
The first thing is the scene he saw before he closed the door, the Zhike monk with a strong uncanny valley effect.
He believed that it was not an accident that the other party designated him to live in this room.
It might have been just a coincidence at first, but from the moment he saw the other party opening the door to the room facing him, he was sure of one thing.
The other party did this intentionally!
As for the reason, it is most likely the same as the reason why he arranged himself in this room. The specific reason needs to be verified by some facts.
Apart from this, there was another thing that concerned him very much.
That's the mysterious light.
As mentioned before, there is no light source in this room, so where does this mysterious light come from?
In addition, this mysterious light also has a powerful restraint effect on the dark creatures outside the house. To a large extent, it can be said that it is the existence of this light that makes this ordinary house a place to hide from the dark creatures and undead outside at night. A refuge for living things.
Then here comes the problem.
Does this mysterious light only have this function?
Also, is there any direct connection between what I am going through now and the clearance of this great Buddhist temple?
What should I do to successfully pass the level?
