Strange talk live room
Chapter 947 Died more than 20 years ago
The cold night wind blew.
The copper ring on the vermilion door shook slightly and made a soft sound.
The pain from the arm wound seemed to be gone.
I stood outside the door, frozen.
How can it be?
How could dad be dead?
I was completely confused and suddenly out of breath.
My whole body was cold from the inside out, as if my heart had been frozen.
"Old man, are you mistaken? He is not dead!" After a while, I shouted to the door.
"I saw it with my own eyes, how could it be false?" the old man said solemnly.
"No! Impossible!" I clenched my fists.
The door opened a gap from the inside out, and more dim light came out.
Behind the crack in the door is an extremely old eye.
That eye looked at me, showing a little surprise, and asked curiously: "Who are you? Why are you looking for a dead person?"
I gritted my teeth and said, "I am Li Xuan's son."
"What?"
The old eye was shocked.
The door was pushed open a little further, and the old man raised the candle in his hand and stared at me hard, with strong disbelief in his eyes.
"Li Xuan died more than 20 years ago, where did his son come from?"
Immediately, his eyes changed and his lips tightened, extremely alert.
"If you want to use this method to trick me into opening the door, even if I am the only one left in the Yunyin Sect, I will not let you thieves get what you want!"
"Old man, you misunderstood!" I hurriedly explained, "I am really Li Xuan's son, and he is not dead!"
At this time, my heart thawed a little.
As he said, if my father died more than twenty years ago, then who am I?
My father has raised me for the past twenty years, and I can be 100% sure that he is not a ghost.
There must be some misunderstanding.
Feeling a little better, I calmed myself down.
"Li Xuan made a big mistake and committed suicide. I saw it with my own eyes!"
"Your boy is full of evil. Although his appearance is somewhat similar to him, no matter how old and dim I am, I will never be deceived by your clumsy tricks!"
The old man's eyes were cold and his voice was cold.
Under the flickering candlelight, a tense old face looked very scary.
"After so many years, our Yunyin Sect has declined, and only these ruins are left. What else do you want?"
"Old man, I really misunderstood!" I couldn't explain it, so I simply took out the white jade token and handed it to the old man.
"Look, this is what my father left for me. He told me to come to Yunyin Sect."
"Xuanyun Order!"
The old man's eyes suddenly opened wide, his slightly gray pupils trembling like an earthquake, his face full of disbelief.
An old hand poked out from the crack in the door, grasped the white jade token tightly, and looked at it carefully under the candlelight.
"It's really Xuan Yun Ling!"
The old man's expression changed again and again, out of control.
I don't know if I want to cry or laugh.
Confirming that the white jade token was genuine, he suddenly raised his head and stared at me closely.
His eyes seemed to see right through me.
"Where did you get the head order of my Yunyin Sect?"
"Come here quickly. If you don't tell the truth, I will risk my life to prevent you from getting down that stone staircase!"
I looked helpless: "Old man, I have already said that it was left to me by my father Li Xuan."
The old man frowned and couldn't believe it: "Li Xuan is dead!"
I thought about it and said, "Do you know Wang Hongzhi? This token was handed over to me by his old man on behalf of my father."
"Wang Hongzhi, the first disciple of Xuan Qing Guan?" The old man's eyes widened, "No, he has been deprived of the qualification to succeed as the leader."
The old man's eyes flickered.
"Li Xuan was not that good with Wang Hongzhi back then. Even if he was not dead, why would he be asked to hand over such an important object?"
"But the headmaster once said before he died that if one day, someone knocks on the door with the Xuanyun Order."
The old man's expression changed, and he struggled for a long time. Finally, his eyes fell on the white jade token, and he looked at it again and again.
"come in."
The heavy door was half-opened, and the old man stood in the flickering candlelight wearing an old gray robe, with suspicion still in his eyes.
"Thank you for your trust, old man!" I smiled gratefully at the old man and raised my legs to cross the high threshold.
The door was closed and the long bolt was fastened.
"Don't be too happy too soon! I won't believe you until you pass the Taoist interrogation." The old man said with a cold face, holding a candle and leading the way.
He was extremely thin, with a thin figure, and his already roomy Taoist robes looked even more empty.
Her back was slightly stooped, and her gray hair was tied into a bun on top of her head, with a dead branch stuck in the middle.
I tremble when I walk.
Crane bones and chicken skin, the remaining light of the dusk scene.
Already very old.
I raised my eyes and looked at the entire Yunyin Sect.
The courtyard is overgrown with weeds and trees are growing randomly.
Because the houses have been unoccupied and maintained for a long time, many walls are broken and tiles are scattered.
Even the beams of some houses collapsed.
There was a damp, musty smell in the air.
One of the three major sects at the time was in such a state of ruin.
Although I have never seen the scenery of Yunyin Sect, this scene also makes me feel desolate.
Looking at the old man's thin back, I wanted to ask something, but I didn't know how to ask.
The old man seemed to be trembling, but his pace was not slow.
He led me through the long corridor, twists and turns, and passed some dilapidated buildings, and finally came to a relatively well-preserved house.
Ask the church.
An ancient plaque with three big characters written on it hangs above the gate.
"Come in."
The old man crossed the threshold first.
Although I was apprehensive, I still entered.
The old man lit two candles on the altar table.
The dim candlelight made the ancient Taoist hall a little clearer.
A yellowed Taoist portrait hangs on the wall behind the altar table.
The old man in the painting, with his immortal demeanor, should be the ancestor, but I don’t know which ancient he is.
The old man respectfully placed the white jade token on the altar table, then took out a stick of incense, lit it, and bowed to the portrait.
"Kneel down!" he said to me sternly.
I obeyed and knelt down in front of the portrait and bowed.
The old man then took out a ceramic jar from the side and placed it in front of me.
When the lid was opened, a strong pungent smell hit my face.
Inside was half a can of slightly viscous black water, black with a greenish tint, which didn't look like a good thing.
The old man casually picked up a wooden block for padding the table and threw it into the black water.
Sizzling——
The black water rolled.
The wooden block was corroded at a speed visible to the naked eye. It melted away completely in just one second and merged with the black water.
"If you want to prove that you are Li Xuan's son, put your hand in the Evolutionary Bone Water!"
Looking at his expression, I knew there was no need to negotiate.
I had to do this to prove that I wasn't lying.
Bone water.
If I put my hand in, wouldn't even the bones melt away?
He just wants to test whether I have the guts to do this, right?
Looking at the pungent black water, I took a deep breath.
Rolling up my sleeves, I slowly reached into the jar.
The smell of black water became more pungent.
When my fingertips touched the water, a strong burning pain spread from my fingers to my entire arm, tearing at my nerves.
It’s not a cover-up!
Black water is really corrosive!
But the old man remained expressionless.
I gritted my teeth, closed my eyes and put all my hands into the black water.
