It's just that Mr. Yan's life is not easy. Since then, it can be said that he has plummeted, and his parents' life has hit him, so that he can barely live to the age of 20, but he can't do it.
After repeated exams, repeated failures, and weak health, in the end, he could only be supported by his wife who opened a cloth shop after marriage.
Originally, it was not impossible to live a hard life, but later, Mr. Yan, who did not know how to do it, became addicted to gambling.
One gamble lasted for two years, and it got deeper and deeper. As a result, I lost all the shops in my family, and I even lost my wife to others!
His wife is also a strong personality, so she jumped into the well in a fit of humiliation.
However, even so, this Mr. Yan did not wake up, but intensified his efforts. In the end, he was beaten to death in the mass grave because he lost too much and couldn't make it!
"This...Are you sure this Mr. Yan is the same person who wrote this book?"
Hearing Ning Cheng's description, Xia Yin expressed a little stunned, but Ning Cheng was not surprised, he just said with a smile: "I haven't finished yet, here is the turning point. By the way, Mr. Yan was thrown into the mass grave, everyone else thought he was dead."
Originally, such an inferior bastard would die if he died, and no one would care, and it would be polite not to even spit at him.
"However, no one expected that this person would come back intact three days later!"
"came back?"
Seeing Xia Yin's somewhat surprised expression, Ning Cheng nodded: "But he came back, but his temperament has changed greatly, and he is still shouting some nonsense that others can't understand all day long."
Well, Xia Yin probably knows what the situation is. This Mr. Yan didn't really become Mr. Yan until he 'died' once.
This seems to be the case.
"After Mr. Yan came back, others thought he was crazy, and even wanted to report to the officials to arrest him. Fortunately, Mr. Yan was crazy for a few days and suddenly recovered. At least he didn't shout anything that others couldn't understand at all."
"Then another half month later, he suddenly said he wanted to write a book! He also announced that the reason why he would come back from the dead and change his temperament was not because he lost his mind, but because he was instructed by an immortal when he was about to die! "
"..."
Xia Yin felt that his expression at this time must be very exciting, but Mr. Yan's performance seemed to be more than that.
"Mr. Yan said that the immortal took him to the immortal world, which made his spirit sublime. He is grateful to the immortal for saving his life and re-creating, so he wants to record the world where immortals live and the stories circulating there."
Talking about Ning Cheng's expression here is also a bit strange, Xia Yin sneered and couldn't help asking: "Then what does the so-called fairyland in his mouth look like?"
"Xianjie, Mr. Yan really mentioned it in the book."
Ning Cheng pondered for a while, and really recalled a passage.
"He said that the immortal world is the residence of immortals. It is vast and boundless, with hundreds of tall buildings everywhere. It is made of crystal and bright like stars."
"There are iron horses that have no hooves and no legs, but can travel hundreds of miles a day, big birds that have no feathers and no hair, but can soar for nine days, and steel fish that have no scales and no fins, but can chop wind and waves!"
"If immortals do not use spiritual methods, they can communicate freely across thousands of miles apart, without moving their mouths, and there will be Divine Comedy and immortal music incessantly.
"All year round, fruits and vegetables are available as soon as you want, and you can take them as you want. Six in all directions, four seas and five lakes, you can leave at sunrise and arrive at sunset!"
"..."
Xia Yin's face was full of confusion when Ning Cheng said it, because if he hadn't seen her with his own eyes, he would have almost believed her.
She stretched out her hand to support her forehead, and said a little speechlessly: "So Mr. Yan's book will be a big sale after that?"
"It's not that easy."
Hearing that, Ning Cheng shook his head decisively. He said that although Mr. Yan seemed to be saying the same thing, few people believed it and thought that this guy was really crazy.
Fortunately, Mr. Yan was not discouraged, and he didn't know where he got the money again, but he actually finished his first book in a decent manner!
It's just something written by a poor scholar, and even if he madly pays money to himself, few people are willing to read it.In addition, he is notorious himself, so he is afraid of getting his eyes dirty by paying money, let alone buying it.
"Then I have to sigh that Mr. Yan's luck is really good. Just when everyone was waiting to see his jokes, some of the books he printed were somehow given to the little princess who is the most beloved by the saint today. Seeing it, what's even more outrageous is that the little princess has become a fan of Mr. Yan's books!"
"It is said that at that time, she directly brought the impoverished Mr. Yan into the palace, and the two talked at night, and then the next day she decided to help Mr. Yan publish a book."
"This……"
Xia Yin said that Mr. Yan is also a protagonist?After all, this is the development route of the protagonist.
Ning Cheng didn't know what she was thinking, and finally concluded: "In short, after meeting the rich and powerful little princess, Mr. Yan finally managed to get out with the help of this noble person. Besides, he is indeed a strange person. So the status is getting higher and higher, and the book is selling more and more popular."
"I heard before that he is highly appreciated by the saints of today, and even if he wants to marry the little princess to him, it can be regarded as a good harvest in career and love."
"..."
Chapter 38 Chapter 38
Xia Yin and Ning Cheng didn't go too deep on the topic of Mr. Yan Ruyuyan, mainly because Ning Cheng didn't investigate it specifically, so most of the information they knew was just some anecdotes that I heard occasionally.
There must be true and false, exaggerated and concealed facts.
Then, although Xia Yin was very interested in this Mr. Yan, it was only to the degree of interest, so now he just listened to the picture, and then immediately forgot about it.
Of course, if there is a chance in the future, Xia Yin doesn't mind meeting this Mr. Yan Da.
But that's obviously not now.
After briefly talking about Yan Ruyu and giving Ning Cheng time to help collect the various books he has published today, the topic of the two of them naturally shifted to a more important place, that is, the group of people just now.
Although Xia Yin really wanted to know immediately why Senior Brother happened to be here, whether it was inevitable or coincidental, but she obviously wouldn't be stupid enough to ask directly, the intention would be too obvious and too suspicious.
Fortunately, there was no need to ask more, Ning Cheng said everything.
I don't know if it's because of 'life-saving grace', but he has [-] points of trust in Xia Yin. Not only did he tell the information that his father was kidnapped, but he even explained in detail that the other party's purpose was the so-called devil egg.
Then, seeing Xia Yin at a loss, she took the initiative to explain to her what the devil egg is and what it does.
"Resurrection?"
Listening to Ning Cheng's explanation of the demon eggs, Xia Yin's eyes flashed quietly, while Ning Cheng chuckled: "Reviving the dead should be fake, at least it is impossible to resurrect people who have been dead for a long time, after all, that is Even immortals are difficult to do, let alone just a demon egg."
Xia Yin nodded slightly but agreed with him quite a bit.
Reviving the dead is not really impossible in the practice world, but it generally has very strict requirements.
The first is that there is no problem with the body or death for too long, and then the soul cannot be dispersed or missing. In this case, it is necessary to encounter a big chance or take some panacea before there may be such a first-line chance of resurrection.
But just keeping the soul alive is already as difficult as reaching the sky.
Humans are not immortals, and they will die eventually, and once the soul is freed from the shackles of the body, it is like smoke in the wind, and a slightly larger movement can be blown away.
After all, that kind of immortal soul only exists in legends or novels. The reality is that the soul will soon dissipate after death, even for powerful practitioners.
Unless you practise the secret exercises about the soul, but that kind of exercises are very rare, even the power itself is far less powerful than believed.
Xia Yin once occasionally found a book in the Tibetan Sutra Pavilion of Taishang Jiange, but when he looked at it, he found that it was meaningless at all.
Because cultivating that thing is not only troublesome, but at most it is to let the soul leave the body for a moment, and if you don't return as soon as possible, you will really die, which can be described as very boring.
In short, it is very troublesome to bring a person back to life, and it is impossible to bring a person back to life after a long-dead death, at least not for human beings.
Therefore, the effect of the demon eggs is obviously exaggerated.
"It's hard to say whether it can be brought back to life, but it shouldn't be a problem if you want to repair some serious injuries, right? It may also be true that you can increase your skills and lifespan."
Xia Yin pinched his smooth chin, thoughtfully.
She was still thinking about how to deal with the injuries on her body, but the devil eggs suddenly appeared this day, and this thing has only one-tenth of the rumored effect, and it has unimaginable benefits for her now.
I just don't know if it's true, and if there is such a thing, how can I get it?
She wanted to immediately ask her brother for information, but Xia Yin, who was scratching the devil eggs like a cat's tail this day, was itching to her heart. After weighing it, she finally asked first: "Your father mentioned something about the devil eggs with you. thing?"
In the end, the balance in my heart was still in favor of the demon eggs, mainly because my senior brother was already here, so I didn't rush to ask.
So if this day's devil eggs are real, then Xia Yin will get it no matter what!
Ning Cheng didn't know that the girl in front of her had already made her mind on the devil's egg, so he shook his head decisively without thinking about it: "Never mentioned it."
"If you think about it again, since that group of mysterious people has already taken action to kidnap your father, it means that they have definitely investigated it, and it doesn't seem to be groundless."
Xia Yin induced it without a trace, but Ning Cheng thought about it for a while but shook his head. He still couldn't think of anything related to it, and of course he didn't completely reject it.
Although the Ning family is a well-known big family in Liuxiancheng, it is not that their ancestors are rich. Outsiders may not believe it. In fact, all this huge wealth was gathered by Master Ning in the past few decades.
This is not unrelated to the fact that Master Ning is a natural businessman, but the more reason is because of Ning Cheng.
Because of Ning Cheng's relationship, Master Ning has a close relationship with his division, and can also use this as a springboard to contact and even cooperate with other sects.
Some people may ask what connection a practitioner has with a mundane businessman?In fact there is.
Because there are only a few ascetic practitioners who practice all day long and do not care about the world. Since living in this world is bound to be contaminated by the mundane, even practitioners are no exception at all.
After all, they are not real immortals, and since they are human beings, they naturally have various emotions and six desires, and naturally they cannot escape this rolling red dust.
Therefore, the connection between the spiritual world and the mundane is actually far deeper than imagined.
Master Ning seized the opportunity very well, and then cooperated with his excellent business acumen and plan to gather wealth that no one else dared to imagine in a short period of time.
During this process, Master Ning naturally came into contact with many things in the world of practice, so Ning Cheng was not sure whether his father really had the so-called devil eggs in his hands, but Master Ning never asked him in front of him. At this point he was absolutely certain.
Xia Yin was not disappointed by this, and then slowly said after being silent for a while: "From the current point of view, if there is such a thing, then there is a high probability that it has not fallen into the hands of those mysterious people, and then your father directly brings it to The probability is not high, so could he hide this thing somewhere?"
"It is indeed possible."
Ning Cheng nodded, if the devil eggs really existed, then it would be best to keep them in his own hands, at least it could be used as a bargaining chip to negotiate with the other side, so as not to be completely passive.
The question now is how to find it.
"so……"
Xia Yin raised his head and asked expectantly, "Do you know where your family's treasure house is?"
After going around for a long time, she finally revealed her true purpose.
Chapter 39 Chapter 39
Regardless of whether the Demon Egg exists or not, it is necessary to restore a certain strength before this, otherwise there is no confidence to snatch it.
And Master Ning's treasure trove is one of the main purposes for Xia Yin to follow Ning Cheng home. Of course, if the devil eggs were in Master Ning's treasure trove, it would be the best.
"Treasure Vault?"
Ning Cheng didn't doubt Xia Yin's purpose, he thought about it carefully and nodded hesitantly, "I do know a few things, but most of them are only used to hide some mundane objects. If there is such a spirit as a demon egg..."
Master Ning, the treasure of the Ning family, naturally wouldn't hide it from Ning Cheng's son, but he was cultivating in the teacher's school all day long, and he rarely went home and didn't say that he was not too interested in this aspect.
And the few treasure rooms that I know are mostly used to store some antiques of calligraphy and painting, or ledgers, etc. There must be some used to store spiritual things, but Ning Cheng is not very clear.
But this is not a problem, because he quickly called Uncle Wang over.
