Hearing these words, old doctor Wu's spirit eased at a speed visible to the naked eye.

He put down a cup of tea, his eyes were full of satisfaction: "Is there anything I can do?" He waved to Su Ziyi, motioning for someone to sit next to him, and Su Ziyi also sat down kindly, looking at him gratefully.

"Thank you."

The old doctor Wu shook his head, indicating that this matter is not worth mentioning. He turned his head slightly and lowered his voice because of the close distance between the two: "Don't tell me this nonsense. Your talent in alchemy is better than mine. It's much better, so compared to these empty words, I hope you can be down-to-earth and diligent, and don't waste your talent."

"After all, maybe I will need your help in the future." Speaking of this, old doctor Wu sighed with a full face.

"Don't worry about these things." Su Ziyi didn't refuse Old Doctor Wu's overt and secret words, but only vaguely agreed: "Although you and I have not established a master-student relationship, the guidance you have given me these days , is already better than half of my master. Therefore, as long as I can help you in the future, and it will not violate the laws and morals of heaven, I am obliged." He picked the bottom line here, and it depends on whether old doctor Wu is willing .

But this has exceeded Old Doctor Wu's expectations. After all, he is not only interested in Su Ziyi himself, but also in the energy behind Su Ziyi.

As a result, hearing Su Ziyi's words, the string in his heart that was tense due to the recent incidents was completely relaxed, and the smile on his face became sincere: "That's enough." After finishing speaking, he He stroked his palms and praised: "I really didn't misunderstand you, kid." He patted Su Ziyi's shoulder as he spoke, "With strength, talent, and affection, it's no wonder you can find such a master."

Master?

Even if Su Ziyi wanted to ignore it again, he couldn't ignore it now. He really didn't understand why old doctor Wu mentioned his master again and again, and he seemed to attach great importance to it.This made him feel weird. After all, he did not have such a master. If it was Dr. Li who enlightened him on alchemy, the other party only had the second level of Qi refining. How could he be worthy of the eighth level of Qi refining? so important?

So, behind his back, something must have happened that he didn't know about.

Although I am very curious about the master that old doctor Wu said, but old doctor Wu is willing to help me like this, he must have taken advantage of that person's influence, maybe Xiang Fu has been so polite to me until now because of this unwarranted reason master.Therefore, Su Ziyi directly suppressed the doubts in his heart, after all, it was not his fault, and he took advantage of it.

So, he only smiled implicitly at Old Doctor Wu.

Now that today's goal has been achieved, Su Ziyi doesn't plan to stay any longer.And old doctor Wu is quite satisfied with what he got today, so when he left, he was also happy, and he talked to Su Ziyi in a relaxed voice, and when they had a party here in a few days, he would call people to come look for him.

Su Ziyi nodded yes, thanked him again and again and left.

When Su Ziyi's figure disappeared from the crowd and could no longer be seen, the old doctor Wu suppressed the smile on his face, turned back to the living room expressionlessly, and as soon as he stepped into the living room, he saw a man with a natural attitude Sitting upright and drinking tea.And this person was someone both Su Ziyi and Old Doctor Wu knew - Xiang Zuo, Chief Steward Xiang.

"Are you satisfied?" In the past, Old Doctor Wu's attitude towards Xiang Zuo was not bad, but now he is tired of seeing it no matter what, so he just snorted coldly, sat down, and said in a somewhat eccentric tone: "Su Ziyi That kid's cultivation level is higher than yours and mine, do you really think you are hiding behind and people don't know?"

"Old Doctor Wu——" He was hurt when we first met, and Xiang Zuo was also depressed, but he knew about Old Doctor Wu's depression, so he didn't care too much about it. He just put down the teacup and spoke softly. Persuading: "I know that you have been angered for a while, and you feel uncomfortable. But we are still Xiangfu people after all, it's better not to do things - those things that are against the master's family are better..."

"Oh!"

As soon as Xiang Zuo finished speaking, Old Doctor Wu directly spilled the teacup in front of him on the ground, shattering the tiles and tea all over the floor, his chest heaved and heaved due to the intense breath, obviously he was so angry by these words up.Seeing this, Xiang Zuo also knew that he had said something wrong, and immediately wanted to go back a few seconds ago and slap that self a few times.

But Old Doctor Wu is angry, and so is he!

It's just that he is more involuntary than Old Doctor Wu.

In this state of mind, even though Xiang Zuo knew that he had done something wrong, he still didn't apologize, but just looked at Old Doctor Wu.When the emotion in Old Doctor Wu's eyes receded a bit, but he was still staring at him holding his breath, he said slowly and helplessly: "You and I have known each other for so long, we should be familiar with each other's personalities." In a word, old doctor Wu replied with a cold snort, but the next moment he was froze in place by Xiang Zuo's next sentence.

"But what can we do?"

This sentence instantly dispelled all the anger in old doctor Wu's heart, and the bitterness flooded into his heart, causing him to fall down on the seat next to him, and he was silent with Xiang Zuo. He said, "How are they doing in Nanyu?"

When Old Doctor Wu opened his mouth, Xiang Zuo knew that Old Doctor Wu had figured it out, and he was relieved, but there was no clue in his tone: "It's the same as before, and the young master is the same." After finishing speaking, he Added another sentence: "However, the master wants you to live here with peace of mind, and he and the third elder can take care of things over there."

"Heh." Old Doctor Wu sneered, and then he looked like he was ten years old, with his back bent a lot: "Forget it, forget it, I don't care about this matter, let them go." He stood He got up and was about to go to the backyard, but when he was leaving, he stopped: "But no matter what, I hope the young master will not get involved in it, after all, he is just a child." step forward.

His last words moved Xiang Zuo instantly, he stood up "kuang", his voice excited: "Is this why you came to Su Xiaoge?"

"Don't you know all of this?" Hearing Xiang Zuo finally asked, old doctor Wu simply didn't hide it, stopped and turned to look at him: "We've been at Xiang's house for so long , we don’t say we know [-]% of the things in it, but we probably know it well. Now that the head of the family and the elders make such a decision, it is tantamount to seeking skin from a tiger. Who knows if it will be his turn next time? ?”

"After all, the Cao family has never been a good one."

"But now the third elder has established a relationship with the Zhou family." Xiang Zuo said anxiously: "With the Zhou family here, what is the Cao family..." Before he finished speaking, he knew that he was given by the old doctor Wu. Interrupted, I saw old doctor Wu reprimanded with a look of resentment: "The Zhou family, the Zhou family, the Zhou family is indeed a super family, but have you seen how many of their subordinate families have become big families? !"

"The Zhou family has polished themselves like a weapon that has no desires and no desires, and they also demand the same requirements from the subordinate families below. They will not favor the subordinate families in terms of resources. At most, they will bless the subordinate families when they are in trouble. The other party. But when the other party loses value, they will also abandon the other party mercilessly."

"And now, what about Xiangfu?!" Bei ※ Ming ※ You ※ Fish

"The talents of the younger generation are withered, and it is all supported by the three elders and the group of elders here. Even if they have a relationship with the Zhou family now, when all the elders are gone, the group of Nanyu and the others will really be able to support them." Can the Xiang family meet the expectations of the Zhou family?" Old Doctor Wu's eyes gradually turned cold: "The elders are not long before their deadline, and when they go, Xiang's house will be like fish on a chopping board."

"That's why the Patriarch and the others hope to use the means of the Cao family to break through and continue to maintain the continuation of Xiangfu."

"It's just that their methods have always been insidious, like raising Gu." Speaking of this, Old Doctor Wu actually laughed twice: "For so many years, those aristocratic families that were overthrown overnight have been perfected. We explained the pros and cons—but for the Xiang family, what can we do?"

"No matter which one you choose, the ending will be the same, only the length of time will be different."

"So don't think about the matter of the third elder's relationship with the Zhou family. How could the head of the family and the other elders not have thought about this kind of thing? It's just that they really have no choice." He raised his head A pair of cloudy eyeballs looked over, but the vision inside shot coldly to the left as if it were real.

"Then Brother Su..." Xiang Zuo nana said.

"He—" Hearing this, the expression on Old Doctor Wu's face softened a little, and he sighed: "I don't intend to involve people, I just hope to borrow what I have to help him now." Let him remember the friendship between the old man and me, and let him and his master help Nanyu and Xiaoyu for my sake."

"Although I'm not really from Xiangfu, I still hope that Xiangfu can continue to stay..."

"Old Doctor Wu..." Xiang Zuo whispered, his eyes already lost in thought.

……

Withdrawing his consciousness, Su Ziyi reappeared on the street with people coming and going, hiding in the sea of ​​people like an ordinary person.

Su Ziyi's face was heavy, he never thought that he would overhear such news.Before, he only thought that old doctor Wu had a strange heart, and he also noticed that Xiang Zuo was clearly coming but couldn't avoid it, so he returned after leaving and took a Xixiu Pill to be safe.

It's just that he didn't expect that the weirdness of those two people was because of such a thing!

He recalled the things he saw in the water marsh again, and after thinking about it carefully, he realized that these devious ways of the family's house were so wrong.In his view, no matter if it is a family or a government, as cultivators, they are natural enemies. Even if they want to form an alliance to fight, they should not kill the alliance as frequently as the family.

It's like they're crazy.

But today, when he heard what Xiang Zuo said to Old Doctor Wu, Su Ziyi keenly noticed a fact—whether it was Xiang Jia, or Cao Minlan's words when he yelled at Zhou Qian in the black lake, contained One thing—that is to protect themselves and let their family continue to survive—that's why they choose or do such sinister things.

This made Su Ziyi suspicious, what kind of crisis made them do such a thing?

As an aristocratic family, their starting point is much higher than most practitioners.Whether it's mental skills or spells, the things handed down from the family are very precious, much better than their casual cultivators who can only rely on opportunities to rush forward; the same is true in terms of resources, they have a long history , There are many forces, and they have already had a fixed and huge resource supply for them.

But why are they still so anxious?

Su Ziyi heard that old doctor Wu mentioned that the younger generation of the Xiang family was short of talents, so he went to negotiate with the Cao family.

As for negotiating with the Cao family and improving the strength of his descendants, the only thing Su Ziyi could think of was that weird blood sacrifice ceremony.According to Zhou Qianyi, the Patriarch of the Qian family seemed to rely on that blood group to be promoted to the completion of foundation establishment. If this is the case, it would indeed allow the younger generation of the Xiang family to be promoted quickly.

It's no wonder that Patriarch Xiang made such a choice.

Just, the most fundamental reason?

The Xiang family is definitely not an exception. Before the Xiang family, there must have been more families who made such a choice, even the Cao family, which is a big family, couldn't help themselves.Even with so many resources, it is inevitable that talent will wither. Is it because of talent?Or because of Linggen?Or is it because of external reasons?

In an instant, several thoughts popped into his mind.

For further verification, Su Ziyi went directly to the largest book store in Qixia Town, and bought back all the history books of Qingze Continent in the book store.It includes practitioners' and ordinary people's, but as long as it is about the history of Qingze Continent, Su Ziyi will pack it all up, not letting go of a single one.After asking the people in the book shop to deliver the things to his home, he plunged into the study room, flipping through the books and counting the data he wanted to know.

And his statistics were directly counted to the morning of the third day.

During this day and two nights, although Bian Qing and Su Yulang thought it was very strange, but when they saw his serious and busy face, they didn't bother him. They just brought water and food over and let him continue to count.

When Su Ziyi finally calculated a result based on the rough data, his whole face was exhausted.He looked at the densely written white paper covering the entire desk, and his face was slumped.His eyes were blank, he stretched out his hand and put it in front of his eyes, grasping it tightly with his five fingers, as if he wanted to grab something. After a long while, he put his hand down, and looked out of the window——

——The end of the Dharma is approaching, and the world will be in chaos.
