Pushing open the door, Jiang Beiran walked in with Shi Fenglan.
Compared with the magnificence outside, this room looks a little plain. Of course, it's just not as fancy as the outside. Jiang Beiran, who has a sharp eye, still saw several treasures at a glance.
'The sleepy dragon sword of the mysterious top grade! ? '
'Xuanlin Furnace of the middle grade Xuanlin! ? Wait, he is burning incense with a mysterious mid-grade medicine stove! ? Is this the rich world? '
'That pillow... can't be wrong, it's made of Liuguang Nuanyu! Gan! I have been looking for this jade for a long time! '
…
In a blink of an eye, Jiang Beiran recognized all the rare treasures in this room, and finally all the exclamations were reduced to one sentence.
'Have no humanity...'
Some treasures that are priceless in Sheng country are used as "furniture" here. You can say it is a waste. Using these things as daily necessities will indeed improve the quality of life.
But it's really too extravagant!
Of course, looking at these treasures was just incidental. Jiang Beiran had been looking at the middle-aged man sitting on the rattan chair since he entered the room.
'Xuan Zun. '
Although Jiang Beiran had already thought that Shi Fenglan's uncle must be very strong, he didn't expect Xuanzun to start directly.
At this time, Shi Hongfang, who was sitting on the rattan chair, said, "Lan'er, you go out first, uncle has something to talk to him alone."
Hearing Shi Hongfang's words, Jiang Beiran and Shi Fenglan were taken aback at the same time.
After being stunned, Shi Fenglan first said: "Uncle~ I won't disturb you, just let me stay here~"
"Hey, go out first." Shi Hongfang said with a smile.
Although the words were soft, Shi Fenglan stopped acting coquettishly and nodded directly: "Okay, uncle, don't bully Xiao Beiran too much."
Shi Fenglan glanced at Jiang Beiran after finishing speaking, and then made a movement of patting his chest, which meant to reassure him.
"Don't worry, my uncle is very good."
After saying this in a low voice, Shi Fenglan withdrew.
With the sound of the wooden door being closed, Shi Hongfang first took a sip from the teacup in hand, then smiled and said, "Jiang Beiran... right?"
"Junior Jiang Beiran met Senior Shi."
"sit down."
Following the direction of Shi Hongfang's gesture, Jiang Beiran bowed his hands in thanks and sat down on the chair.
'Good guy, it is indeed a chair made of Jinyang wood. Just sitting on it feels like the whole body is connected. If you sit on it and practice, your speed will double, at least. '
After looking at Jiang Beiran, Shi Hongfang asked, "What's your relationship with Lan'er?"
"Playmate." Jiang Beiran replied without changing his face.
"Oh?"
Seeing that Jiang Beiran didn't even froze for a moment when he heard this question, Shi Hongfang was quite surprised.
'The character is really good. '
With a compliment in his heart, Shi Hongfang took another sip of tea and asked, "Are you really not interested in those treasures that Lan'er secretly gave you?"
'Sure enough...'
Jiang Beiran always felt that Shi Fenglan was always watched by a pair of eyes, otherwise the system would not have reminded him not to reveal his strength when he first met her.
Later, when Shi Fenglan was always able to steal the famous treasures on the list of rare treasures from her home, this was also confirmed from the side. If there was no one or some way to keep watch over Shi Fenglan secretly, how could it be possible for her to bring these treasures out.
Just as Jiang Beiran was thinking about this, three options suddenly popped up.
[Option 1: "Never moved." Completion reward: Celestial Axis (Earth-level low-grade)]
[Option 2: "Vulgar objects are nothing more than passing clouds." Completion reward: Yueming Magic Book (Xuan-level middle-grade)]
[Option 3: "Senior, look at what you said, no one would be tempted to put this kind of treasure in front of you, I really want it." Completion reward: random basic attribute point +1]
'Um? '
Looking at option three, Jiang Beiran was a little taken aback, because he understood the meaning, why was his tone so weird.
What about chatting
It's not related to that...
Although complaining in his heart, Jiang Beiran still decisively chose three, and said with a smile: "Senior, look at what you said, how can anyone not be tempted by such a treasure in front of them, I want it so much."
[Optional mission completed, reward: charm +1]
'Damn it! Why am I handsome again! ? This still keeps people alive. '
Shi Hongfang was obviously taken aback after hearing this, and he didn't understand why Jiang Beiran was so casual all of a sudden.
'Is my smile not majestic enough? '
But compared with those juniors who are always anxious in front of him, Jiang Beiran's performance...
He didn't dislike it very much, and even found it quite fresh.
"Hahaha, Beiran speaks quickly, without any affectation, so since you are tempted, why don't you?"
"I am timid, I dare not take it."
"Ha ha ha ha."
Facing such a junior who dared to tell the truth, Shi Hongfang smiled inexplicably happily.
After laughing for a long time, Shi Hongfang continued: "Okay, let's get down to business. I believe you should know why I asked Lan'er to bring you here this time."
"Is that senior Profound Sage looking for me?"
"That's right, the ancestor called you by name. To be honest, I'm also curious about what kind of young people can make the ancestor interested. Now I see you..." Shi Hongfang looked Jiang Beiran up and down again: " I understand a little bit."
Without waiting for Jiang Beiran to say a few words of modesty, Shi Hongfang continued: "Before I take you to meet your ancestors, I have something to tell you first."
As he said that, Shi Hongfang changed his sitting position and continued: "Do you know why Lan'er went to your Xiaozong who doesn't lay eggs?"
"The younger generation doesn't know." Jiang Beiran replied directly.
In fact, Jiang Beiran still had some idea of why Shi Fenglan appeared in Guixinzong, but it was too metaphysical to answer.
Showing a look of reminiscence, Shi Hongfang sighed: "On the day Lan'er was born, a vision appeared in the sky, accompanied by a strange and coquettish red light, and an extraterrestrial stone fell from the sky."
"For this reason, my younger sister specially asked Gu Liangren to divination for her. After the calculation, Gu Liangren said that my niece is evil and will cause many disasters. He needs to make a move to let Lan'er stay here Inside, you can barely explain it."
After hearing this, Jiang Beiran was not very interested in this evil entanglement, because he knew that it was probably arranged by heaven.
'But it's too early to set up the way of heaven... I haven't gotten through it yet, so I'm thinking about it? '
Putting these emotions aside, what Jiang Beiran is really interested in is that this Gu Liangren in Shi Hongfang's mouth can be specially invited by the Xuansheng family, and he has no doubts about what he said. It can be seen that this Gu Liangren is The aspect of fortune-telling is definitely already transcendent.
And Jiang Beiran is very short of a guide in divination.
First of all, his [divination] special point is not high, and he doesn't know when he will get it next time, so he is not like other profound arts that can learn everything without a teacher.
Secondly, he consciously knows very little about [divination], but because he cannot find an expert in this area, he can only figure it out by himself.
Now that I finally heard a fortune teller that even the Profound Sage recognized, I had to pay my respects anyway.
While Jiang Beiran was thinking about how to find this Gu Liangren, Shi Hongfang was still describing Shi Fenglan's life experience.
"After hearing that Gu Liangren had a solution, my sister was relieved first, and then immediately asked how long she would stay in this formation? Gu Liangren's answer was as short as twenty years, and as long as forever …”
Naturally, my sister couldn't accept such an ending, so she asked why it was only 20 years. Gu Liangren told her that the secret should not be leaked, and that he would come back to help Lan'er to make another fortune after 20 years, so that it would be accurate Know if there is a solution. '
"Although my younger sister can't accept this result, in order for Lan'er to grow up well, she can only obey Gu Liangren's words. Before he left, Gu Liangren told my sister that the evil spirit on Laner's body is too strong, so ordinary people You must never get close, even for Xuanzong like my sister, Gu Liangren has stipulated the number and time of meetings for her."
"Later, Lan'er has been living here, no... to be precise, she should be locked in the room where Gu Liang set up the magic circle, until her twentieth birthday."
Hearing this, Jiang Beiran felt inexplicably guilty. Although it was the fault of heaven, Shi Fenglan seemed to have been imprisoned for twenty years because of him.
"Gu Liangren has always kept the agreement. Twenty years later, he came to our house on time, and made a calculation for Lan'er. After the calculation, Gu Liangren smiled. The smile was very strange, as if he had seen something. Unbelievable."
"Under the expectant eyes of our whole family, Gu Liangren told us that we should only send Lan'er to the Guixin Sect in Sheng Kingdom. When the time comes, the evil spirit will be relieved. In addition, they still need to wait patiently before the time comes. , don’t interfere too much with Guixinzong’s affairs, otherwise the cause and effect will be broken.”
Hearing this, Jiang Beiran finally understood why Shi Fenglan's mind was like a child's.
He was locked in a small room since he was a child, and he was locked up for twenty years. After being sent to the Guixin Sect, he was worshiped as a "Bodhisattva". Of course, there are only a handful of people who can get in touch.
As for those seemingly mature actions, it is estimated that most of them were taught by Guardian Yu to show her majesty as the hall master.
There is also the reason for the rebellious girl who lacked fatherly love at the beginning. Although Jiang Bei didn't know how her parents lied to her, the number of times they could see Shi Fenglan must have been greatly restricted, and After Shi Fenglan arrived at Guixin Sect, they didn't dare to see her anymore, otherwise what would happen if the cause and effect were broken.
Thinking of all the sufferings Shi Fenglan suffered, Jiang Beiran kept thinking silently in his heart.
'The pot of heaven... the pot of heaven...'
"Huh..." Taking a long breath, Shi Hongfang looked at Jiang Beiran and said, "The reason why I told you this is to let you understand that Lan'er's heart is very simple, but if you dare to lie to her, you know the consequences."
"Juniors don't dare." Jiang Beiran cupped his hands.
"Also..." Shi Hongfang said, looking at Jiang Beiran again, "Feng'er has been to Guixinzong for many years, and although the evil spirit has disappeared, the so-called opportunity has never arrived, and before the opportunity arrives, We don't dare to take her home rashly, but you seem to be a little special... "
[Option 1: "I don't know what's so special about this junior?" Completion reward: Nether Forbidden Record (Earth-level low-grade)]
[Option 2: "Senior Shi, why do you need to guess? Why don't you just ask that Gu Liang?" Completion reward: random basic skill point +1]
Jiang Beiran, who understood the meaning of the options, chose the second option, and replied, "Senior Shi, why do you have to guess? Why don't you just ask that Gu Liang?"
[Optional mission completed, reward: phantom sound +1]
"This..." Shi Hongfang didn't expect Jiang Beiran to give such an answer, but he quickly smiled and said, "That's right."
After finishing speaking, Shi Hongfang stood up, "Okay, I've finished what I want to tell you, now I'll take you to meet your ancestors."
"Yes, thank you senior."
Nodding, Jiang Beiran stood up with Shi Hongfang.
Pushing open the door, Shi Hongfang looked at the anxious Shi Fenglan and said, "Do you want to eavesdrop or not?"
"Uncle!" Shi Fenglan yelled, "What kind of formation does my family set up? It's more commonplace."
"Hahaha, it's uncle's fault, and I'll make up for you next time with an apology."
"Hey, that's okay." Shi Fenglan kept glancing at Jiang Beiran while speaking, not stopping to hint at something.
It's a pity that the look in this look is too high-end, and Jiang Beiran really can't understand it.
"Okay, you go back to your own room to rest, I will take him to see the ancestor."
"Ah~" Shi Fenglan drew a long voice, "Just let me go together, I haven't seen my ancestor for a long time."
"No, the ancestor said that as long as you see him alone, it can only be him."
"All right… "
Pouting her lips aggrieved, Shi Fenglan looked at Jiang Beiran and exhorted: "Xiao Beiran, you must be very respectful when you see your ancestors. Don't be petty, or I won't be able to save you."
"Got it." Jiang Beiran nodded with a smile.
"Hee hee, that's good, just be obedient."
Seeing Shi Fenglan trying to pretend to be an adult, Jiang Beiran suddenly felt distressed, and it was hard to imagine how she was still so optimistic and cheerful in that kind of childhood.
"Go back quickly." Shi Hongfang said again.
"Got it~" Shi Fenglan waved at Jiang Beiran, and said, "Then we'll see you later, remember to be obedient."
"Got it." Jiang Beiran still nodded with a smile.
When Shi Fenglan left, Shi Hongfang shook his head with a smile, then looked at Jiang Beiran and said, "If my brother-in-law sees that Lan'er is so close to you, I really can't guarantee that you can get out of our Shi family alive."
"..."
Seeing Jiang Beiran stunned, Shi Hongfang burst out laughing.
"Just kidding, kidding, let's go."
'Why don't I feel like it's a joke...'
Sighing, Jiang Beiran followed Shi Hongfang's pace.
Passing through the middle hall, Jiang Beiran followed Shi Hongfang to a tower.
'This tower... what name is it? '
Jiang Beiran felt that his eyesight was still very high, but he couldn't see where the top of the tower was when he looked up.
'Is this... breaking through the sky? '
