That facial paralysis always wants to hug
Chapter 74
Bai Che followed the old patriarch, walked straight into the depths of the forest, and walked to a row of small bamboo buildings with twists and turns.
There were several guards outside the bamboo building. When they saw Bai Che approaching, they all had complicated expressions. What Bai Che could tell was surprise, and a little... fear?
Several guards greeted them, then stood back.
The old patriarch led Bai Che inside, and explained: "This is the book library of our clan. All the spell secret books, genealogy, family memorabilia, etc. of the clan are all here. This is also the place where the clan chief specializes. In the practice place, because the spells practiced by the patriarch are very secret, people cannot easily disturb them. These guards should not only protect the secret books in the clan, but also protect the safety of the patriarch."
Bai Che nodded and asked, "Then will these guards go in and peek at the cheats?"
The old patriarch smiled and said confidently: "Absolutely not."
"Why?" Bai Che asked curiously.
The old patriarch said: "The guards guarding such an important place must of course be absolutely trustworthy. If the guards guard themselves and steal, the punishment will be very severe. Their family members are all in the clan. Do you want it? Who dares to go in and peep?"
The old patriarch might have something on his mind, so he blurted out the words without noticing what was wrong.
Bai Che said "Yes", with a calm expression on his face, but he felt desolate in his heart.
The old patriarch's words were subtle, but wasn't the meaning obvious?With the families of these people as hostages, no one dares to be disobedient.
"Then can they communicate with the patriarch?" Bai Che asked again.
"Basically not." The old patriarch seemed to have come to his senses, glanced at Bai Che, and answered cautiously, "It depends on the situation."
Bai Che didn't ask any more questions, this place is so remote, according to what Chu Yao said, he has lived here for the past 20 years.Listening to what the old patriarch said now, these guards can't communicate with him, so what kind of life is he living?
No wonder, he is not good at communicating with people at all, how could he be good at communicating with people?
Bai Che held a deep breath in his heart, and it took him a while to suppress it.Fortunately, Qiao Lingnan didn't follow, maybe when he saw the situation, he turned against the old patriarch directly.
Thinking of Qiao Lingnan, Bai Che felt better.Fortunately, he met him.
The old patriarch opened a room on the top floor, which was filled with rows of bookshelves, and the bookshelves were also full of books.
Bai Che asked, "Is this the place where I practice spells?"
"No." The old patriarch shook his head, and flipped through a book on the second row of bookshelves on the left. The row of bookshelves against the wall suddenly parted to the two sides, revealing a small door.
Bai Che wrote down the operations of the old patriarch, and looked at the small door in surprise: "There is even a secret room?"
"It seems that you really don't remember anything." The old patriarch seemed to be sighing.
In fact, when Bai Che saw that door, he remembered something. After all, this was the place he had stayed for 20 years, and he was very familiar with it.
However, the unintentional words of the old patriarch revealed that he had never really believed him.Bai Che was secretly vigilant and acted more carefully.
Behind the small door is a secret room, a real secret room, only with a window on the top.Bai Che was depressed again, this person is too much!
There are also books in the secret room, but not as many as outside. The strangest thing is that there is a TV on the wall.
Bai Che suddenly remembered many things. When he first arrived in Hecheng, many places seemed familiar to him.At that time, Qiao Lingnan asked him if he had been to Hecheng.Bai Che knew very well that he had never been there before, but he just felt familiar.Bai Che suddenly understood that the reason why he felt familiar was because he saw it on TV.
Bai Che gritted his teeth in secret, but asked the old patriarch as if nothing had happened: "Why is there still a TV here?"
"Aren't you afraid that you will be bored?" The old patriarch said "see how kind I am to you".
Bai Che took a deep breath, and instantly understood many things.Judging from the environment outside the bamboo building and the situation in this secret room, this place should indeed be the place where the patriarchs of all generations practiced.Perhaps, the clan motto of the Nanzhi clan is really like this. The heir of the patriarch cannot meet outsiders, and must practice spells hard here.
But the problem is that he is not from the Nanjie tribe at all, so he could have spared all these hardships!
The old patriarch should have bought the TV specially for Bai Che, not because he was really afraid that Bai Che would be bored.He just wanted to control Bai Che while letting him know about the colorful world outside.He would not be unwilling to wait until the day when his spell was practiced and the old patriarch asked him to go out to do something.
However, he didn't let Bai Che get in touch with people outside, then there would be obstacles for Bai Che to communicate with people.In this way, even if Bai Che went out, he still had to rely on him to live.
This person's heart is really too vicious.If Qiao Lingnan hadn't taught him how to analyze people's hearts, Bai Che would never have thought of this.
Bai Che pretended to look around the room while calming down his anger, now is not the time yet!There are some truths that have not yet been discovered, and as much information as possible must be obtained in order to hit it with a single blow.
The old patriarch also seemed quite nervous, and kept paying attention to Bai Che's expression.
Bai Che had a paralyzed face, except for a little more expression in front of Qiao Lingnan, no one would be able to tell what he was thinking at ordinary times.At this time, there is no need to deliberately conceal it, the old patriarch can't tell anything about his normal expression.
Bai Che turned around and said regretfully: "Forget it, I can't remember anything, let's hurry up and read the cheats on magic cultivation."
The old patriarch was relieved when he heard this, Bai Che's behavior showed that he didn't think of anything.The reason why he was reluctant to bring Bai Che here was because Bai Che was too familiar with this place, and he was afraid that he would remember something.
Now that Bai Che can't remember, it would be great.
Bai Che caught a glimpse of the old patriarch's unconsciously tensed fingers relaxing, and knew in his heart that there was nothing wrong with their guess.The old patriarch is the mastermind behind the scenes. He brought him here alone just now, and he has already made plans. If he remembered something, he might have already done it.
"Here." The old patriarch found the cultivation secret book of the Zongtian Curse in the most secret corner, and beckoned Bai Che to come over and read it, "Can you try it?"
Holding the cheat book, Bai Che went through it from beginning to end, and he already knew it in his heart.
He closed the cheat book and said, "I seem to have a feeling, but how do I remember, I don't seem to have practiced this spell yet?"
The old patriarch nodded subconsciously, but he shook his head immediately and wanted to say something, but he heard the guard knocking on the door outside, knocking urgently, as if something happened.
The old patriarch had no choice but to put this matter aside, and the two came out of the secret room, only to see a guard full of anxiety, seeing the two of them immediately said: "Patriarch, Miss Chuyao and that patriarch Wei are fighting."
"What?" The old patriarch was surprised, "Why are there fights?"
Bai Che was also very surprised, Chu Yao was young, but he was definitely sophisticated in doing things, much better than him in dealing with people.Although Wei Xiao was suspected of having ulterior motives, after all, they had been together for a few days before.Moreover, Wei Xiao has been acting weird so far, but there is no actual evidence to prove that he has done anything evil.Therefore, according to Chu Yao's character, even if he was a little dissatisfied with Wei Xiao, he probably wouldn't go to the point of making a direct move.
As the patriarch of the clan, Wei Xiao is a guest on someone else's territory, so it is unlikely that he will take the initiative to take action.Moreover, Wei Xiao also has an extremely forbearing character. He was provoked by Qiao Lingnan before, but he can still pretend to be an ordinary person, and he always likes to flaunt himself as a gentleman, so he will not easily attack Chu Yao.
So, what happened between the two?
The old patriarch also knew that they would not come here if it was not an urgent matter.However, the guards didn't know exactly what happened. They just said that the situation was very serious: "The patriarch Wei was seriously injured. The people he brought were very dissatisfied, and they were clamoring for an explanation. The situation was a little out of control."
The old patriarch frowned and took a look at Bai Che.
Bai Che said, "Why don't we go and have a look first? After all, Wei Xiao is the patriarch of a clan. If there is something wrong with him, let alone a clan, the Northern Wu clan will never let us go."
The old patriarch naturally understood, so the two hurriedly locked the door and hurried back.
When Bai Che went downstairs, he suddenly saw a small green feathered bird on the tree next to it. It was Yanyan, and he hurriedly gave it a wink.
The old patriarch rushed back to the main square with Bai Che, and saw dozens of people confronting each other. The scene was very chaotic.
Chu Yao's face was ugly, and he managed to keep everyone from fighting.Wei Xiao was lying on the side, looking quite weak, Qiao Lingnan was guarding Wei Xiao beside him.
"Patriarch, you are here." Seeing the old patriarch coming, the people of the Nanjie clan breathed a sigh of relief.
"What's going on?" The old patriarch frowned and asked, his uncontainable hostility made everyone around him shudder.
"Chu Yao!" Seeing that everyone was silent, the old patriarch directly called Chu Yao's name, "What's going on?"
Chu Yao trembled and opened his mouth, but no words came out. The old patriarch became even more angry.
Bai Che persuaded in a low voice beside him: "Patriarch, should you take a look at Mr. Wei's injuries first? The responsibility can be pursued later, but Mr. Wei cannot die."
The old patriarch also felt that what Bai Che said was reasonable, so he went to check Wei Xiao's injuries, and Bai Che followed.He originally thought that the messenger might be exaggerating. After all, although Chu Yao is smart, his spells are not very powerful.Therefore, even if she fights Wei Xiao, she will not be Wei Xiao's opponent.Even if Wei Xiao lets her go, she can't hurt Wei Xiao too hard.
However, when he took a closer look, he realized that Wei Xiao was really seriously injured, and it was definitely not a fake.No wonder, those people are anxious red-eyed.
Bai Che whispered: "This...doesn't mean it's hopeless?"
His voice was very low, but there are many people in the Beiwu tribe who are very hard of hearing. When they heard this, they immediately became anxious and started to make trouble again.
The old patriarch was one head and two big, and before he had time to think about it, he said loudly: "Don't worry! Your patriarch will be fine!"
There were several guards outside the bamboo building. When they saw Bai Che approaching, they all had complicated expressions. What Bai Che could tell was surprise, and a little... fear?
Several guards greeted them, then stood back.
The old patriarch led Bai Che inside, and explained: "This is the book library of our clan. All the spell secret books, genealogy, family memorabilia, etc. of the clan are all here.
