Chapter 5 The Old Ancestor Returns

On the ninth day of the second lunar month, in a wilderness outside Dongning City, the sky was gloomy.

"Yo." A melodious bird song sounded, and I saw a huge bird bathed in thunder swooping down from the clouds, but two figures sitting cross-legged on the bird's back.

"boom!"

When the bird approached the ground, the thunder on its huge wings charged in all directions, causing the entire wilderness to tremble, and the electric snakes swept away, and then dissipated.

At this time, two figures fell from the back of the bird.

One is a middle-aged woman, and the other is an old woman on crutches.

"Junior Sister Huang, I've already arrived. I'm in my hometown. You can go back." The old woman on crutches said with a smile.

"Sister Meng." There were faint tears in the middle-aged woman's eyes. Her 'Sister Meng' was not so old before. This time, she was seriously injured and showed her old state, but she could still vaguely see from her appearance that the old woman was young when she was young. Also beautiful.

"I'm afraid we won't see each other again this time." The old woman sighed and smiled, "But I'm pretty good, at least I can go back to my hometown before I die, and spend the last few years of my life in my hometown. Those wars Dead, but it has really become a pile of loess."

"Sister Meng, if you need any help from me, just write a letter. I, Huang Xiangning, will do my best." The middle-aged woman said solemnly.

"If I ask you, I will speak." The old woman smiled, "Okay, go back quickly."

The middle-aged woman looked at the old woman carefully, and finally jumped onto the bird's back. Soon the bird shook its wings, and thunder filled the sky.

call.

Carrying thunder and lightning, the bird quickly flew into the sky and disappeared into the sky.

The old woman watched her companion leave, and then turned to look at Dongning City, with a smile on her face: "It's time to go home, if the leaves can return to their roots, God treats me well!"

"Boom."

The crutches in the old woman's hand tapped the ground lightly, and ripples of void swayed where they hit, and bursts filled the four directions, covering the surrounding area of ​​100 meters.

She was holding a cane and was enveloped in ripples, and walked towards Dongning City, every step was several dozen feet. Even though they passed by some pedestrian caravans on the official road, those people didn't seem to see the 'old lady', and they still laughed and chatted.

After a moment, she came to the entrance of the city gate.

"Dongning City."

The old woman leaned on crutches and looked at the majestic city in front of her.

This is her hometown! Where you lived when you were young.

The old woman smiled and continued to move forward. A large number of people at the gate of the city, including the guards at the gate, did not see the old woman. As if the old woman did not exist in this world, she entered the city, walked on the street, and came to the ancestral house of the Meng family.

Enter the ancestral home.

There are many clansmen patrolling the ancestral house, but they also can't see the old woman.

"Gugugu." In one of the small courtyards of the ancestral house, the fat old man was drinking suffocating wine.

"Pingping, are you stealing alcohol?" A voice sounded in the small courtyard.

The fat old man was so frightened that he even looked around and couldn't help but say, "Third sister, is that you? Third sister?"

In the yard, an old woman with a cane appeared out of thin air, looking at him with a smile.

"Three sisters."

The fat old man's eyes were red, he was the only younger brother of 'Meng Xiangu'. Although other elders in the family also called 'third sister', it was because the family was too large. After all, in a family with a history of thousands of years, many family members were separated by several floors. The fat old man's name is 'Meng Yanping', the contemporary patriarch of the Meng family. He is nearly twenty years younger than Xiangu Meng, so when she was a child, Xiangu Meng took him, and he was both a sister and a mother.

In his heart, his third sister has always been so young, so beautiful, so omnipotent, but now she is so much older.

"Why are you crying, I'm not living well?" the old woman laughed.

"Third sister, is your injury really incurable?" the fat old man asked.

"As long as you don't fight hard, you can still live for seven or eight years." The old woman said indifferently, "People have life, old age, sickness and death, and gods and demons also have a lifespan limit, so what's so sad. The next few years will be enough for me to properly settle my Meng. Home, the news of my serious injury comes back, what’s going on in Dongning Mansion?”

"The Yun family and my Meng family broke off the engagement, which is the engagement of the little guy Meng Chuan." The fat old man said, "As for the rest, the four major gods and demon families are only doing small moves, and they don't dare to really anger my Meng family."

"Well, when the marriage contract was made, Yun Wanhai also wanted to borrow the power of my Meng family. Now that I am seriously injured, it is normal for him to cancel the marriage contract of the junior."

The old woman ordered, "By the way, Pingping..."

"Third sister, I'm in my 90s, and I'm still the head of the Meng family. Can you call me by my name?" the fat old man couldn't help asking.

"Oh, well, I'll give you face." The old woman smiled and said, "Meng Pingping, go, call all the elders of the clan to the Great Fire Hall, I want to see you."

"What Meng Pingping, my name is Meng Yanping." The fat old man muttered, but he hurriedly called the clan elders.

The elder sister became the mother and the elder sister, and brought him up.

Protect him, let him get to where he is today.

Hearing his elder sister call him 'Pingping', the patriarch Meng Yanping also felt that walking was more vigorous.

******

The ancestral home of the Meng family, the Great Fire Hall.

Only the most important things in the family will come here. Today, the surrounding area of ​​the Raging Fire Hall is heavily guarded.

in the hall.

Meng Xiangu stood there leaning on a cane, looking up at the plaque in the hall - the word 'fire'.

The patriarch and all the elders stood respectfully, and no one dared to say a word.

On age...

Meng Xiangu is 112 years old this year, the eldest in the family. In terms of strength, Meng Xiangu became a god at the age of thirty-five. She has sheltered the Meng family for nearly 80 years. The Meng family has also prospered for 80 years, and her prestige in the Meng family is beyond doubt. She gave an order, fearing that many clansmen would not hesitate to die.

After reading the word 'fire' on the plaque for a long time, Meng Xiangu turned around and glanced at the elders present. All the elders bowed a little nervously.

"My Meng family's younger generation, is there any talent that is expected to become a god and demon?" Meng Xiangu asked. Although the Meng family has been rooted in Dongning for thousands of years, there have only been two gods and demons. One is The other ancestor of Yu Shan five hundred years ago was Xiang Xiangu. During their time, the Meng family reached its peak. What Meng Xiangu is most looking forward to is...

Can cultivate the third god and demon in family history.

Originally, she could patiently and slowly find a younger generation suitable for cultivation, but now the time is too tight, so she can only choose the short one.

"Da Jiang's talent is quite high. He learned the secret skills of the sword at the age of nineteen, and the sword posture at the age of thirty. Now at the age of forty-seven... there is also a glimmer of hope in becoming a god and demon." The bald and thin old man said.

"Dajiang?"

Meng Xiangu looked at Meng Dajiang who was standing aside.

"Aunt." The fat Meng Dajiang saluted.

"Have you ever condensed pills?" Meng Xiangu asked.

Meng Dajiang shook his head.

Meng Xiangu frowned, she was forty-seven years old, and she hadn't even done it yet. The hope of becoming a god is really slim.

"What about the younger generation?" Meng Xiangu asked.

"Junior, three are still successful." The patriarch Meng Yanping continued, "Meng Zhu, this boy is twenty-three this year, has no leakage, and is doing military service at Qinyang Pass. He learned secret skills at the age of nineteen. There is also 'Meng Wenying' This girl, she is 16 years old this year, and she has achieved top swordsmanship at the age of 12. There is also Da Jiang's son, 'Meng Chuan', who is 15 years old this year, and he is 13 years old. Small, but they haven't realized the secret skills."

Meng Xiangu was silent.

Meng Zhu, who only realized the secret skills at the age of nineteen, is really too late for becoming a god and demon! Because I don't know what year it is since I realized the "potential", and it's even farther away if I want to become a god.

Meng Wenying and Meng Chuan, one is sixteen years old and the other is fifteen years old. Time is very tight, and the key is not even mastery of secret skills.

She wanted to choose among the short people, but she really couldn't.

"You all go back." Meng Xiangu said in a cold voice, "In the next few years, the younger generation of the entire family will increase their training. This is the top priority of the family, and other things are not important. Before I die, I will Seeing a seedling that is expected to become a god and demon."

Obviously, I didn't see the outstanding ones, so I could only cast a wide net, hoping that the eighty-nine-, eleven- or twelve-year-old juniors would emerge as geniuses.

"Yes." The patriarch and all the elders responded in unison.

"This matter is related to the rise and fall of the family, and there is no room for neglect. If there are people who are rich in their own pockets, they will be dealt with directly by the family." After speaking, Meng Xiangu walked out with a cane.
