These players are more cunning than cunning

Chapter 172 The reversal of the truth!
Listening to the voice behind her, Ning Zheng's guess was completely confirmed.

It’s Li Youzhu!

He is indeed the third demon cultivator ancestor in the tomb.

If he hadn't relied on the display of luck to know the result of the reasoning - Pingzu was Li Youzhu, he could have reversed the whole process based on the conclusion.

I'm afraid I can't guess anything at all.

Because he hid too deeply!
Even the other two ancestors and the evil cultivators and monsters on the mountain might not know about his calculations and his private affairs.

Click.

The oil lamp in the Bamboo Bookstore was suddenly lit.

He still had the face of a middle-aged scholar, wearing a washed-out, elegant long gown, with gentle and elegant eyes, and the temperament of a down-and-out talent.

"Child, come in and sit for a while." The middle-aged scholar smiled and slowly walked back to the counter.

Ning Zheng was not shy and walked into the house and sat down.

He looked around and saw that the entire bookstore was still full of books.

It was like the first time I entered this bookstore as a mortal, seeking knowledge for cultivation.

There are no book thieves in this strange manor, and everything is well preserved.

But what he couldn't think of at that time was.

Having just escaped from the evil cultivators and monsters in the villa, he ran to the bookstore run by an old master of the evil cultivators to seek knowledge about cultivation.

Now that I think about it, I was simply walking into a trap!

"Come to think of it, ever since you brought my daughter here for the first time, I felt that you had great potential."

Li Youzhu took out a pot of wine and two white porcelain bowls, skillfully poured wine for himself, and then poured a bowl for Ning Zheng.

"If you hadn't brought my daughter to the bookstore, you would have died a hundred times over as a slave who escaped from the mountains."

Ning Zheng nodded and smiled: "I'm lucky. I came across the only solution."

“Sometimes, luck is also a kind of strength.”

He took a sip of the wine and said, "So, how did you know?"

Ning Zheng looked at the wine bowl, then looked at her luck value.

900 points.

+50
This wine is good.

Ning Zheng's luck has always been good.

"guess."

Ning Zheng picked up the wine glass and took a sip. "You are half awakened, and Ping Zu is also half awakened. This is too coincidental."

"Is that why?" Li Youzhu said with a smile.

Seeing Ning Zheng drinking the wine without any hesitation, Li Youzhu smiled even more deeply.

When traveling in the world, it is a good thing to be vigilant.

But sometimes, excessive vigilance can be a bad thing. Many people cannot see through things and cannot figure things out. Being vigilant all the time can only distance people from each other.

As in the current situation, since you are here, trust is the first element to gain favor.

The young man in front of him was not on guard against him and thought of him as Ning Jiaojiao's father. This free and decisive action made him very fond of him and he looked up to him even more.

Ning Zheng said:

"If you are both half-awakened, that's understandable, but your Earthbound Spirit ranges overlap, so you can interact with each other."

He paused and said, "Ping Zu can come to the bookstore, and you can come to Ping Zu's residence. These two semi-awakened beings don't conflict with each other. They look like the same person."

Li Youzhu smiled faintly and said, "But it's still just speculation. I said I was hiding, ambushing, and winning over the remaining forces of Jiaojiazhai."

Having said that, he seemed to agree with this idea.

"Guessing is enough." Ning Zheng whispered, "I accidentally learned about the history of Jiaojia Village. The demon cultivators broke through too quickly. Maybe there was an insider."

"You, Li Youzhu, the village chief's husband, may be the biggest culprit."

"That's right!" Li Youzhu poured himself another glass of wine and drank it all.

He apparently began to accept this statement.

Just guessing, that's enough.

There's nothing to lose by coming and asking.

So the other party came to ask, and he showed up.

"In that case, I won't hide it from you. Just don't tell my daughter."

He smiled and said, "It's not a big deal."

Soon, Ning Zheng heard his whole story.

It’s actually pretty close to what I guessed.

1. Timeline.

He was indeed the Ancestor of the Bottle. When the entire clan fled here, these earth-bound spirits naturally pulled themselves up early and moved together.

And since you have gone to so much trouble to pull it out, you might as well make the best use of it before plugging it back in.

Just like before, the ancestors of Pingchang City had gone to great lengths to pull them out, and thought that Queen Hongri would not rush to put them back, and asked the ancestors to help attack this villa at the same time.

This ancestor of his was skilled in puppetry, hiding in disguise, and personally accepting the mission of infiltration, which led to the meeting with Jiao Wuyu.

2. As for the battle a month ago?

The Pingzu in the paper house was a puppet he made.

Fighting against oneself is itself a play performed for Jiao Wuyu.

3. As for now, he is resurrected as an ember?
It does reset the memory.

He had just been resurrected today and indeed had lost the memory of his previous experiences.

But when he fully awakened before, he left a hidden hand, cutting off part of his memory and soul and storing it.

The next time I revive and regain my memory, I will be restored.

But the conditions for using this method are very strict.

You have to wake up.

Without awakening, he would not be able to recognize that he was dead, and he would not be able to make a plan for resurrection in the second life. When he was resurrected today, he saw those wicked blacksmiths and sent them away. He had just regained his memory and came to the bookstore to stroll around, and he ran into Ning Zheng who was waiting for him here.

"And now."

He said calmly: "Even if I regain my memories, I will only return to the initial half-awakening."

"To fully awaken again, a new opportunity is needed."

Ning Zheng nodded.

I'm afraid this opportunity still lies with Jiao Wuyu, because his obsession has always been Jiao Wuyu.

And it is more difficult than last time.

But being able to survive is already good enough, and naturally I can't ask for more.

This layout is perfect, perfect. Not only did it save Jiao Wuyu, but he also had a chance to be resurrected again.

"So, you need my help with this opportunity to awaken again?"

Ning Zheng suddenly whispered, "After all, it's hard to plan again by yourself. People don't know you faked your death. If you're not careful, your wife and daughter will be separated."

"Your family may not be able to accept your lies, even if they are well-intentioned. I don't know about her mother, but Ning Jiaojiao probably can't accept such a desperate demonic father."

Ning Zheng also had a vague guess.

Even if she didn't go looking for him, this old ancestor might come looking for Ning Zheng at some point in the future.

Because being a bound earth spirit alone has too many restrictions, many strategies cannot be carried out.

He needs someone to help.

"Actually, I envy the dragon race."

Li Youzhu answered irrelevantly and murmured softly:
"Compared to humans, they are blessed by nature and are born sacred."

"If you escaped from the villa, went through many twists and turns, and survived a near-death experience in the strange villa, you would ask for the cultivation method."

"Like me, when I was young, I practiced, fought, practiced, and robbed, just to survive."

"When I first met her, I couldn't believe there was such a pure and beautiful girl in the world. She was blessed by nature, and her breathing became stronger naturally. She lived a happy life without the need for practice."

"She asked me for directions and I accompanied her for a while. After that, she no longer remembered me. To her, I was just a passer-by, but to me, those few days were unforgettable."

He sighed softly, with memories still in his eyes:

"But being naive and simple has its price. I can't remind her that the gap between her and me is too big."

“But later, I realized I was wrong.”

He smiled. "I am a thoughtful person who believes that I have extraordinary talent and will be no weaker than the dragon clan in the future. However, I died first while the naive girl still lived for a long time. She has countless bodyguards and has lived for thousands of years."

Ning Zheng nodded.

The path of a monk is too cruel!

Sometimes, some people are at the finish line when they are born, while some people work madly and make all the calculations, but still die along the way.

If it weren't for the relocation of the graves, they would never have met each other.

"In fact, our meeting is not accidental."

Li Youzhu said softly: "She escaped from that disaster, and our family also escaped from that disaster."

"In the face of real terror, everyone is equal, and being alive is good enough."

Ning Zheng asked curiously: "Disaster?"

"It's better that you don't know."

Li Youzhu didn't mean to hide it.

But for the weak, not knowing is actually the best thing.

Besides, those are all past history and there is no point in talking about them now.

Li Youzhu sighed and said, "You will know everything later. After I awakened, I gave her the three flowers not only because I loved her, but also because giving it to her was the best choice for both of us."

He looked at the starry sky:

"I can't escape the pursuit. She is the only one who has a chance."

"If she succeeds, it won't be too late for me to succeed too. This is the best solution in my mind."

Ning Zheng nodded, it was indeed a good plan.

If Jiao Wuyu managed to escape successfully, and then he was pulled up again, there would be someone to protect him when he was hunted down by the imperial court.

This requires a double ghost king!

Looking back on his layout, it is not an exaggeration to call him a hero!
There is a way to have the best of both worlds: live up to the path and live up to your lover.

He really calculated and found a way to have the best of both worlds.

This kind of person is so scary.

Now, this evil couple has naturally stood on the opposite side of the court, but they gave birth to a naive daughter, Ning Jiaojiao.

But it may not always be like this. Jiao Wuyu must have been very naive when he was young. People grow up.

But the dead don't.

If Ning Jiao Jiao wants to grow, she must first be resurrected.

But this is a long way off.

Now Jiao Wuyu is probably still on the run, being hunted down madly by Jian Xin of the imperial court.

"So, what do you want to ask here?"

Li Youzhu suddenly laughed and said, "Let me guess, your question is how I gave birth to a daughter."

Ning Zheng was slightly stunned and nodded.

One is a mutilated dragon, and the other is even more weird.

It's outrageous that this couple can give birth to two children.

Moreover, there is one final contradiction.

Since Ning Jiaojiao is the ancestor of the demon cultivators and the daughter of Jiaojiazhai, and both forces are direct descendants, how did she die?

This is all just a show for you. Why don't you protect your daughter?
Ning Jiao Jiao, her death was too strange.
