In the spacious attic, Zuo Xu and Chen Jian looked solemn, their eyes flashing with sharp light, staring straight at Zuo Shi, who was about to reveal the secret of the turtle shell.
Zuo Xu was the head of the Zuo family. At this time, he couldn't hide his excitement. His ten fingers couldn't help but bend and straighten again and again, and even the corners of his mouth began to twist unconsciously.
Zuo Shi, she is the hope of the future of the Zuo family. Her strength will determine whether the Zuo family can gain a firm foothold in the future and even rise in the business alliance.
The glory of a family almost entirely depends on their future successors, and their strength will have a completely different impact on the family's situation. If Zuo Shi is strong, then the prospects of the Zuo family will be bright. On the contrary, if Zuo Shi is weak, then the Zuo family will probably fall into silence.
In history, the rise and fall of many families are closely related to their core figures. A family always needs a strong leader to maintain their status.
It is precisely because of this that Nangong Shang arranged for Yin Kui and Jiu Shan to protect Nangong Ce early on and prevent him from having any accidents while growing up. His operation was not only for Nangong Ce's safety, but also took into account the family's future.
At this time, Chen Fan stood calmly and watched all this. He was carefully observing Zuo Xu's reaction, looking for subtle changes in his face. He learned through observation that Zuo Xu truly regarded Zuo's poems as the most precious treasure of the Zuo family. At the same time, Chen Fan realized how important a future strongman who was about to emerge was to the older generation in the family.
…
The strange and exotic cyan symbol jumped out of the ancient turtle shell like a drama queen. The figure flickered in and out, like a dream, and finally walked towards her - Zuo Shi. He disappeared immediately, as if he had never appeared, hiding directly in her body.
Zuo Shi immediately closed her eyes. Her face was extremely beautiful, carved like a dragon's national treasure, with rare beauty. At this moment, her face was shrouded in a mysterious cyan light, making people afraid to look directly at it.
Tiny light spots are like vital blue fireflies, shining with elegant brilliance. They dance, circle and grow on Zuo Shi's face, as if whispering to her, conveying their inner thoughts to her in the most original way. .
Zuo Shi's body, which looked like a fairy descending from the earth, trembled slightly at this moment. She was slender, and the cyan light held in her palm became dazzling at this moment, like a bright star burning in the short night.
Zuo Xu's pupils shrank, and he couldn't help being shocked when he saw the situation in front of him. He stood up suddenly and subconsciously rushed towards Zuo Shi, eager to protect her and deeply afraid that she would encounter any unforeseen danger.
Stop
That was what Chen Fan said. He walked up to Zuo Xu one step ahead and held his shoulders tightly. "Don't be anxious, Grandpa Zuo. All this is expected." He forcefully guided Zuo Xu to look at him. .
Zuo Xu was stunned. He looked at Chen Fan in surprise and quickly asked, "Are you sure Zuo Shi is fine?"
Chen Fan nodded and responded with firm eyes, "Yes, I'm sure. Those cyan light spots are actually the memory messages in the turtle shell. If I guessed correctly, I'm afraid they are from the legendary 'Xuanwu Tiangang' Cultivation method. So Mr. Zuo, you don’t need to worry too much, this is just the inheritance of memory."
The secret method of 'madness' that Chen Fan obtained from the blood pattern before was too similar to the current scene. At that time, countless memory points flew out of the blood pattern ring, directly integrated into his mind, becoming part of his memory, and deeply imprinted in his heart; now seeing Zuo Shi's state, he was even more convinced that this was a previous experience. , there is evidence for this response.
"You brat, don't talk nonsense. This issue is very important. You can't be careless at all!" Faced with Chen Fan's speculation, Chen Jian warned him with a serious expression.
Chen Jian has no bottom in his heart. He is afraid of Chen Fan's blind command. If Zuo Shi's situation worsens as a result, it may destroy the harmonious relationship that the two families of Chen and Zuo have maintained for a long time, and may even intensify the conflict and turn them into enemies. , the contradictions and rifts are difficult to repair.
Ever since Zuo Shi reached the top of the Chixiao Ranking, the Zuo family's status has soared, and they have the strength to fight against the Nangong family. For the Shi family, having such a powerful ally, the Zuo family, is extremely precious: on their journey against the two major forces of the Nangong family and even the Yan family, the Zuo family will be a sharp sword.
Chen Jian had no intention of touching this fragile balance, and he had no intention of becoming hostile to the Zuo family.
"Don't worry, Zuo Shi is definitely fine, you all can rest assured." Chen Fan had no doubts and comforted Zuo Xu in such a calm tone: "Congratulations, Master Zuo, Zuo Shi will definitely gain a lot this time, you have already You can laugh happily.”
Chen Fan's words made Zuo Xu feel relaxed, and he smiled slightly: "If it turns out like you said this time, then I owe you a favor."
As soon as Zuo Xu finished speaking, Zuo Shi suddenly opened his eyes and chuckled, "Grandpa, I'm afraid you really owe him a favor."
Zuo Shi couldn't help but smile. Her eyes were full of surprise, "Those cyan light spots are the cultivation information of 'Xuanwu Tiangang'. Now I understand all the cultivation methods of 'Xuanwu Tiangang' in my mind."
What level of martial arts is "Xuanwu Tianangang"? Zuo Xu couldn't control his excitement and asked hurriedly.
Zuo Shi shook his head slightly: "I don't know either. All I have mastered is the cultivation method of 'Xuanwu Tiangang'. I really can't be sure which level of martial arts it belongs to."
Chen Fan smiled slightly, "The text on the turtle shell is very old, and it is probably the martial arts practiced by the original ancient warriors. At that time, the classification of martial arts was completely different from what we have now, and there was not such a detailed level." Then his smart eyes Flashing with strange waves, he continued in a relaxed tone: "Although the martial arts of that period were different from ours now, they were definitely much more mysterious than today. Zuo Shi was really lucky this time."
"Hahaha!" Zuo Xu's laughter echoed in the air. He slapped Chen Fan on the shoulder with great emotion and praised him, "You young man, you are becoming more and more likable! With you like this Smart young people are in the Shi family, and I think the future of the Shi family will be limitless."
Chen Jian's eyes flashed and he glanced at Zuo Shi. He seemed to be thinking about something, but a brighter smile appeared on his face.
Suddenly, the sound of "ka ka ka" sounded, and Zuo Shi waved his hand gently, and the turtle shell suddenly cracked and turned into pieces of uniquely shaped turtle shells.
Those tortoise shells became as thin as cicada wings, shining with mysterious green spots, like a Zen state transformed from the depths of the ocean. Some are shaped like dragon heads, and some are shaped like dragon tails, as if they are ancient costume shoulder pads, bringing endless reverie to people.
In the center of a pile of tortoise shells, there are three more green elixirs the size of walnuts. The shape of the elixirs is strangely like a small stone sculpture with a dragon head and a turtle body, full of vitality and mystery of treasure.
A refreshing aroma of herbal medicine drifted out from the three pills. The aroma was rich and attractive. When the four people smelled this fragrance, they all felt their spirits shaken.
"These three are the 'Dragon Turtle Pill' used in conjunction with the practice of 'Xuanwu Tiangang'. This pair of turtle shells is the 'Dragon Turtle Shell'. It is said that the defensive power created by it is extremely powerful." Zuo Shi stretched out his hand and took the "Dragon Turtle Pill" "Pan" was held in the palm of his hand, he put it into his pocket unceremoniously, and said confidently: "I need these Dragon Turtle Pills to practice Xuanwu Tiangang, and I happen to have three of them on hand now, which can help me practice Xuanwu Tiangang to a higher level. realm."
Seeing this scene, Zuo Xu smiled even more and clapped his hands frequently. His excitement was beyond words.
But Chen Jian felt a little depressed in his heart. Watching Zuo Shi take away all the Dragon Turtle Pills, his lips moved, and finally he couldn't help but murmured in a low voice: "This kid Chen Fan also had a share..."
"Just take the dragon tortoise shell." Zuo Shi said softly. She kicked the dragon tortoise shell on the ground, frowned cutely, and chuckled: "I don't want to wear this suit, it will be too heavy. Who loves it? Whoever wants it can keep it."
"Very good." Chen Jian nodded sharply, his eyes sparkling, and he hurriedly gave Chen Fan a look, indicating that he should quickly pick up the "dragon turtle shell".
"I'm afraid this is not feasible, right? After all, they have a complete set." Zuo Xu chewed his teeth, his face full of heartache. Although he was very fond of Chen Fan, he was reluctant to let go of that "dragon turtle armor".
Chen Fan stood quietly, shook his head and said with a smile: "I don't need this. Our Chen family's martial arts focus on defense, and I don't need to carry such a heavy tortoise shell."
"You!" Chen Jian was so angry that he stamped his feet, "You don't know what to do!" He was angry. If you don't need it, you can give it to anyone. What a fool! He cursed in his mind.
"Young man, I admire you so much!" Zuo Xu grinned and winked at Chen Jian, "It's not that I'm unwilling to give it, it's Chen Fan who refused it himself. In this way, you can't blame me." After that, , he quickly picked up the tortoise shells, and the smile on his face obviously deepened.
"Grandpa, if you put on this 'dragon turtle armor', I can imagine that you will look like a super old turtle. Can you give it a try?" Zuo Shi smiled, full of mischief.
"That's right, Brother Zuo, if you put it on, it should fit very well." Chen Jian gloated, blinking proudly.
"How dare you talk nonsense! You nonsense little bastard!" Zuo Xu's face turned green. He pointed at Zuo Shi and glared at Zuo Shi. "If you continue to talk nonsense, do you think I will go to Yunwu again?" The mountains will pick you up, let’s see if you can endure Chi Xiao’s boring days!”
"Grandpa, I don't dare anymore." Zuo Shi smiled and stuck out his tongue, turned around and ran away with a smile.
"Ahem, Brother Chen, it's almost time for us to go home." Zuo Xu's eyes narrowed into a line, he looked at Chen Jian with a smile, and then whispered in his ear: "Don't worry, the Zuo family will send people to keep an eye on you." The situation in Mengmeng Ansen. Once we discover Mendel’s traces, we will notify you immediately, and you will do the same. If you have any clues, you must communicate with each other as soon as possible. "
"Of course," Chen Jian shook his head and sighed, "I really didn't expect that little character Mendel to be able to pull off the trick and steal the precious dead wood map. And now, a second map has appeared in the Treasure Pavilion. If someone can merge these two maps, it will be easy to open the 'Heaven Gate'. What a pity..."
Hearing the name "Mendel", Chen Fan frowned, pondered for a moment, and asked tentatively: "The one named Kalu, is he a fifth-grade mortal alchemist?"
"Oh, so you also know about Mendel?" A trace of curiosity flashed in Zuo Xu's eyes.
"Is he important?" Chen Fan did not directly answer Zuo Xu's question, but instead asked a question.
"He himself is not very important. But the treasure map on him that can guide us to find the 'Tianmen' is extremely important!" Zuo Xu's voice was full of importance.
"Actually, Mendel has been killed by me. As for his treasure map, it happens to be with me." Chen Fan said indifferently.
"What?!" Zuo Xu, Chen Jian, and Zuo Shi were all shocked by Chen Fan's words. Their eyes widened and they screamed in surprise.
