"I know what my dear brother said."
Xiong Zhanmo was silent for a moment, as if he had figured something out, and slowly spoke: "At that time, because this matter was too unbelievable, and I didn't want to cause any complications, I hid something. I hope you won't be surprised."
Zhao Yongqi was silent.
What he said was the reason why the Xiong family formed an alliance with the Zhao family. Although the Xiong family was only a ninth-grade clan at that time, with Elder Li Xiuwen as its backer, its development potential should not be underestimated, and it was far from being reduced to an alliance with the Zhao family. situation.
But this bear patriarch.
It's not just a half-request, half-begging alliance.
He didn't even care that he already had a Taoist partner, but he was still willing to marry his daughter Xiong Wushuang to him. These things were extremely ridiculous in the eyes of onlookers. I don't know how many people openly and secretly scolded Xiong Zhanmo for being stupid and ridiculous.
Even inside the Bear family.
There is also considerable opposition.
But Xiong Zhanmo still resisted the pressure and forced a marriage alliance with the Zhao family.
In the eyes of Zhao Yongqi.
Although Xiong Zhanmo seems to be generous and righteous, he is obviously not a stupid person. On the contrary, Xiong Zhanmo is actually very cunning. The reason why he wants to marry and form an alliance with the Zhao family must have reasons unknown to outsiders.
This is also what interests Zhao Yongqi.
"It's true."
Xiong Zhanmo's eyes were deep: "More than forty years ago, before the Zhao family moved to southern Xinjiang, I met a monk named Li who was in the Qi refining period. Because of a thousand-year-old elixir, I had a conflict with that monk named Li. .”
"I never thought that even though that person was only in the Qi training stage, his magic weapons and techniques were extremely good, and I couldn't do anything to him for a while."
He showed a hint of reminiscence.
"Back then, we were chasing each other and broke into an unknown mountain. After entering the mountain, we found that our spiritual consciousness and magic power could not be used. Although we still don't know why, the situation immediately reversed. When a person develops extraordinary martial arts skills, he will chase me and run away."
Xiong Zhanmo smiled bitterly, feeling a little embarrassed. As a foundation-building monk, he was chased and beaten by a Qi-training monk.
There are probably not many in the entire world of immortality.
He continued: "Fortunately, I also studied ordinary Qinggong when I was young, so I was not easily caught up by that person. However, there was no way out of the mountain at that time, so I had no choice but to continue running towards the mountain. In the end... Finally I saw a Taoist temple.”
"There is an old man in the Taoist temple holding a hexagram flag and wearing a Taoist robe."
Xiong Zhanmo's voice became softer and his tone was humble, as if he was afraid that the senior would hear him.
"The situation at that time was extraordinary. The monk surnamed Li and I couldn't use our magic power, and no one could do anything to the other. In fact, we didn't have much intention to fight for a long time. We just wanted to get out of this ghost place first. After meeting our seniors, We started trying to strike up a conversation.”
"That senior is very approachable."
"It's said that meeting is fate, we have to make a prediction for each of us."
"The monk surnamed Li first made a divination. What he asked for was the location of the Shanling Black Stone. His technique is extremely special. He specializes in natal puppets. As long as the puppet advances, he will also advance in his own cultivation. And spiritual materials like the Shanling Black Stone are not suitable for It is very important to him. It is said that it can increase the probability of the puppet being promoted to Jindan or even Nascent Soul."
"The final result of the divination was Weishan Mountain, which was Guyang Peak back then."
Speaking of which.
Xiong Zhanmo glanced at Zhao Yongqi.
Zhao Yongqi himself knew a lot about Li Yuntian and Shanling Moshi.
However, Zhao Yongqi looked as usual.
There was no expression fluctuation.
Xiong Zhanmo continued: "Then, it was my turn to divine. I originally wanted to seek opportunities for my own cultivation, but by some strange combination of circumstances, what I ultimately sought was the future direction of the Xiong family."
"It's a coincidence that the senior made a prediction, then looked at the two of us with a profound look, and finally told me that whoever can get the Shanling Ink Stone on Guyang Peak first will be able to bring it to the Xiong family. A bright way out.”
"Brother Xian also knows what happened next."
Zhao Yongqi nodded slightly.
He continued Xiong Zhanmo's words and said slowly: "Brother Xiong thought that the Shanling Ink Stone on Guyang Peak might be obtained by Li Yuntian, so he wanted him to marry Xiong's family, but Li Yuntian was unwilling. In the end, Brother Xiong knew that Shanling The ink stone was acquired by me, so I entered into a marriage alliance with the Zhao family."
"good."
Xiong Zhanmo said with a smile: "Thanks to that opportunity, since the alliance with the Zhao family, the Xiong family has been in good times. First, they took advantage of the cross-domain waterway, and then they were promoted to the eighth-grade clan. The foundation-building monks in the clan are even more prosperous. There are more than 20 of them... all thanks to my virtuous brother."
"Isn't it because of the support of Elder Li Xiuwen, one of the three golden elixir elders of the Qianzhong Alliance?" Zhao Yongqi asked back.
"My dear brother, I don't know something."
Xiong Zhanmo smiled bitterly: "Before forming an alliance with the Zhao family, Elder Li Xiuwen did not take care of the Xiong family. On the contrary, after our two families got married and formed an alliance, Elder Li Xiuwen occasionally took care of the Xiong family, but he did not help too much. "
"I see."
Zhao Yongqi murmured, thoughtfully.
He had heard from Li Yuntian before that he came to Guyang Peak to look for Shanling Ink Stone under the guidance of a divination priest, but he did not expect that there were so many origins in it, and even Xiong Zhanmo was involved in it back then.
This fortune teller's methods are really clever.
Not only did it guide the location of the Shanling Ink Stone, but even the Zhao family, who had not yet moved to southern Xinjiang, was involved in the conspiracy.
Listen to Xiong Zhanmo's description.
This Taoist is probably a figure who stands at the top of this world, and possesses a magical power similar to measuring the sky, measuring the earth, and calculating human scriptures.
Zhao Yongqi was curious.
In that person's divination, what role did he play? No matter what, that person would not have been able to divine his reincarnation power, otherwise the other party would have come to him personally.
In the three-dimensional world.
There is no way any monk can resist the temptation of reincarnation.
This is the thought.
Zhao Yongqi asked casually: "Brother Xiong, do you know where that senior came from?"
"have no idea."
Xiong Zhanmo shook his head in distress: "Not only do I not know his identity, I can't even remember his appearance. I can only recall the general attire."
Zhao Yongqi had no hope of getting an effective reply.
He just asked casually, so there was no disappointment.
unexpectedly.
Xiong Zhanmo's big copper bell-like eyes suddenly lit up, he slapped his thigh, and shouted in surprise: "Taiyi!"
"Taiyi!"
"That's right."
"It's absolutely true... On the plaque of the Taoist temple, the two ancient characters Taiyi are written."
suddenly.
Xiong Zhanmo slapped the back of his head hard again.
His face was tangled and confused: "It's strange... It's really strange. If I saw the word Taiyi back then, I would never forget it. But I haven't thought of it for so many years, but I just thought about it when I told my brother Xian about these things. Get up."
"Yes... Brother Xian is the destined person that the senior mentioned."
"That's why I remembered it when I was talking to Brother Xian."
