Blue, Red and White Dark Abyss Cauldron
Chapter 170 Riddle
The makeup artist stared at Xuan Youzhu with her dark eyes and asked, "You are proficient in the art of asking spirits. Can you let me see your spirit?" Her voice was very hoarse, as if her throat was made of wood stems or grass stalks.
Xuan Youzhu hurriedly shook his hands and said, "Although I know a little about this technique, I have never used it, and I have never seen what my spirit body looks like. I dare not use such a vicious technique."
The makeup artist shook his head and sighed, very disappointed.
Zhang Qianyuan then asked: "Then what's the secret about where you came from? Are you afraid of disgracing your ancestors?" Everyone thought that what he said was too much, but because of his aura, no one dared to say anything.
Tieyong kept eating and drinking and ignored Zhang Qianyuan.
You Ganzhan drank one cup after another without eating a single bite of food. He occasionally glanced at Zhang Qianyuan with a look of resentment.
If Zhang Qianyuan was targeting Xuanying, he would not say a word even if he was beaten or scolded, but he had always been targeting the cowardly, honest and useless Xuan Youzhu, which made him more and more angry. He could not help but say, "Why don't I say it for him. He, Xuan Youzhu, is from Lixuan Island, and I, Xuanying, am also from Lixuan Island under Nanwu Star. You are right, we have indeed disgraced our ancestors. But none of this has anything to do with you, Zhang!"
Xuan Ying seldom spoke such a long speech at once, and his words at this moment surprised Xuan Youzhu, Jin Li'er and Chang Lun.
Since arriving in Cangmu Country, Xuan Ying only mentioned that he was from Lixuan Island to two people, one was the deceased Pang Shisan, and the other was Sisi. He basically didn't tell anyone that he was from Lixuan Island. First, few people knew about it, so it would be useless to tell anyone. Second, his parents and ancestors often warned him that his ancestor Xuan Nanwu chose to move to Lixuan Island to seek refuge, so it was best not to mention it to outsiders.
However, what was even more surprising was that he said that both of them were from Lixuan Island.
It was OK that I had never heard of Tong Hun, Zhuang Ren, You Gan Zhan, and Huang Wu Bao Guan. However, Jin Li Er and the four older people, Zhang Qian Yuan, Chang Lun, Gong Shu Kang, and Sun Zi Cao, had heard of them. They wondered what these two wanted to do by traveling thousands of miles to Jin Yang City.
Zhang Qianyuan said, "They are indeed from the Xuannanwu lineage of the Xuan Sect. That's great. No wonder they are so young and are close to reaching the Dragon Subduing Realm." He turned to Jin Lier and said, "These two should have nothing to do with the Golden Sword Sect. My lady can rest assured." He stopped talking, drank a glass of wine, and picked up the dish in front of him and took a bite.
Zhang Qianyuan didn't seem to take Xuanying's rudeness to him to heart.
Jin Lier asked curiously, "Xuan Nanwu, could it be that he was the number one martial artist from more than four hundred years ago?"
Gong Shukang said: "It is said that Xuannan's martial power has reached the seventh level of moving mountains. He is indeed very powerful, but it is not certain that he is the best in martial arts. That is just their Xuan Sect bragging."
Chang Lun said: "Of course, it can't be compared with Yi Ren's immortal martial arts, but in the dozens of times after his death, Xuan Nanwu was the number one martial artist at the time, and he deserved it." He wanted to take Xuan Ying as his martial arts disciple, so he kept saying good things about him.
Gong Shukang wanted to refute, but after thinking about it carefully, he realized that there were indeed no other masters with Force levels above the seventh level at that time, so he had to shut up.
The makeup man chuckled and said, "With the seventh level of the Force, can you fight three or five Lao Cha?" Lao Cha is the nickname of the Golden Knife and Black Sword.
Zhang Qianyuan stopped questioning Xuan Youzhu, and Jin Lier started to persuade him to drink again.
Suddenly, an attendant came in and reported to Jin Lier that "that person" had arrived in Jinyang City. Everyone was very curious and didn't know who "that person" he was talking about.
Seeing everyone's curious expressions, Jin Li'er smiled and said, "Why don't we play a guessing game? Whoever guesses this person's identity will be rewarded with 100 gold coins and three glasses of wine. How do you think?"
Zhang Qianyuan and Chang Lun were more mature and prudent. They thought that the young lady was still young and had a childish mentality, so they smiled and twirled their beards without answering.
You Ganzhan, Huang Wubaoguan, Tonghun, Xuan Youzhu and others cheered loudly. The others did not object, thinking that it would be harmless to play with the young master.
Huang Wu Baoguan said: "Since the young master asked everyone to guess the riddle, there must be a riddle. Otherwise, how can the millions of people in Jinyang City guess it?"
Jin Lier smiled and said, "Of course. If I asked everyone to guess the riddle without giving them any clues, you would definitely scold me behind my back for being stingy and using a hundred gold coins to fool people."
Huang Wu Baoguan bowed and said, "I dare not, please give us a piece of paper and a pen each, and we will write the answer on the paper, and then reveal it at the end to see who guessed the most accurately."
Jin Li'er ordered her attendants to bring paper and pen, and gave each of the ten people at the banquet a copy. Xuanying did not take it, nor did he intend to guess. He suddenly felt that it was extremely boring to be in Yunying Palace. These people were not only suspicious of each other, but also somewhat pretentious. It was not a place that he liked.
Jin Lier thought for a while and said, "Here is the riddle. This person 'came from the north and also from the south; he has a humble status, but does shocking things; he is worshipped by hundreds of thousands, but condemned by tens of millions.' Everyone, guess. There is a time limit of one moment, and see who can guess the most accurately." After saying that, she looked at everyone with a smile.
Zhang Qianyuan, Chang Lun and others who didn't want to guess were also aroused by curiosity and secretly thought about the answer. The others were all thinking about it.
Xuanying didn't want to guess this boring riddle, so he poured a glass of wine and drank it by himself. He glanced at Xuan Youzhu and saw that he had gone from being a lowly slave to a guest in Jin Lier's room. It was really unpredictable.
I have always looked down on him, not only because of his cowardly character, but also because he escaped from Lixuan Island without caring about the lives of his parents and sister. Although I was able to survive because of his forced dragging me away, I don't have the slightest gratitude towards him. Instead, I feel that because he brought me away from Lixuan Island, I have become a villain who forgets his principles and only cares about survival, just like him.
A few months ago, Xuan Youzhu was captured as a slave, and Xuan Ying was not sad at all, but rather happy, thinking that such a villain should be punished painfully. Later, when the slaves of Jiaoshan rebelled, he saw Xuan Youzhu again and found that he was tortured to the point of being unrecognizable, and he felt a sense of revenge.
Xuanying thought of the words "slave" and "rebellion", and suddenly a light bulb went off in his head. He thought to himself, isn't the riddle Jin Li'er gave "lowly status, amazing behavior; hundreds of thousands of people worship, tens of millions of people call for his death" referring to me? As for "from the north, also from the south", what does it mean? Yes, Yu Aqi, Gao Yijue and others are from Anfeng City or Yancheng, which is north of Jinyang City, and they must have been captured in Bicheng, and are now coming from the south of Jinyang City.
