Chapter 77
The originally clarified ideas fell into a whirlpool of doubt.
If Yongnian County did not exist, what would his first life be, and why would the Zeng family in Anyang, starting from the two brothers, be exactly as he remembered them for two consecutive generations.
What exactly went wrong in this.
"Since Weiwen and Weiwu are the distant ancestors of the Zeng family, it is only right that their lives must be recorded in the family annals!"
"Do you know the name of the father of these brothers?"
Li Yan was not disturbed by the sudden accident.
After thinking for a moment, he quickly asked a question that pointed to the key point.
"The younger generation is the direct descendant of the Zeng family, so how can we forget the life of our distant ancestor."
Zeng Yuanqing smiled bitterly.
Although I don't know what kind of medicine this person is selling in his gourd, the rise and fall of the Zeng family now all depends on this person's thoughts.
How could he dare to conceal anything and tell all the contents recorded in the family history?
The Zeng family was born in Guangping County, Anyang Prefecture, and his father was a well-known local doctor.
It's a pity that unexpected events happened. Zeng Weiwen lost his father when he was eleven and his mother when he was twelve. His father's period of filial piety had not yet been completed and he had to start observing filial piety for his mother again.
Both of their parents died, and the Zeng family was in a state of decline. The two brothers had no money to study, so they had no choice but to borrow poems and books from their former classmates, cut through walls and steal them, copy them overnight, and then send them back.
It was in such a difficult environment that Zeng Weiwen worked hard and became a scholar in the next year after the filial piety period ended, and his family's situation began to improve.
It seems that the hard work of the two brothers moved God. From then on, Zeng's literary fortune was out of control. The two brothers won the imperial examinations one after another, and the younger brother Weiwu even won the title of Toad Palace.
After becoming prosperous, the two brothers spent a lot of money to repair the tombs of their parents, and carved a stone tablet to write their biography. The tablet is still erected in Guangping County today.
While Zeng Yuanqing was speaking, he carefully observed the Grand Master's expression.
I saw that when the two distant ancestors lost their parents when they were young, the expression of the old man who had always looked normal suddenly changed a lot.
When they talked about the two brothers setting up a monument and writing a biography for their deceased parents, the pressure on their bodies became even more chillingly low.
"Then what is the name of your distant ancestor's biological father?"
Li Yan snorted coldly and asked again.
He still has some memories of Guangping County, which is less than fifteen miles north of Yongnian County.
In his first life, he was famous far and wide, but many powerful squires from Guangping County paid a lot of money to treat him. I had never heard of any doctor named Zeng in Guangping County.
"The originator of Atractylodes used to be taboo, and he was also from Guangping County, Anyang Prefecture."
Zeng Yuanqing replied anxiously.
Li Yan made some insinuations again, asking about the properties he bought for his second son.
According to what Zeng Yuanqing said, it is still the ancestral property of the Zeng family. However, how could Zeng Weiwen, who had just been admitted as a scholar at that time, afford a courtyard with three entrances and three exits in Fucheng? It clearly cannot withstand scrutiny.
Zeng Yuanqing also hesitated and couldn't explain why.
"Fifteen miles south of Guangping County, at the foot of Zhelong Mountain, do you know where the boundary is?"
Li Yan continued to ask.
"Senior should be talking about Luoxia Ze, but there don't seem to be many peaks near Luoxia Ze."
Zeng Yuanqing frowned and recalled uncertainly.
Li Yan made the other party contradict himself with several questions in a row, and the loopholes in them made the Taoist disciples feel strange.
He didn't say anything, but he made up his mind to go to Zeng Baishu's grave no matter what, to see what kind of person this Xibei man was who had been responsible for the Zeng family's incense for more than a hundred years.
"You guys should go to sleep, we have to go on the road tomorrow morning."
Li Yan could not resolve the doubts in his mind and gave the order to expel the guests with some impatience.
Seeing Zeng Yuanqing looking at the corpses of several masked men with some embarrassment, he knowingly knocked them down with a flick of his sleeves, but the masked men still showed no reaction at all.
"Their hearts were shattered by Pindao's internal force. You can just leave them in the courtyard without worry. If you are kind-hearted, you can dig out the soil for their graves."
He said that he would use his internal power to break his heart, but it was just a pretense used by Li Yan to deceive people.
Li Yanjin is only twenty-eight years old. Even if he started practicing martial arts from his mother's womb, he still would not be able to become a Grandmaster of Waigang. As for being an innate Grandmaster, it is even more nonsense.
The fact that he was able to kill several people quietly was due to the monk's small use of his true energy.
The spiritual platform is clear and thoughts arise spontaneously. Monks practice both life and life. Every thought can kill people without being visible.
In his previous life, Li Yan was an innate strong man who was unique in a century. He was very familiar with how warriors moved their true energy, but he only separated out a trace of true energy that contained thoughts and mixed it into the bodies of a few people.
If they quietly change the path of their true energy, they will go crazy and die within a short time.
A warrior who cultivates his life but not his nature will live as long as a fool in heaven and earth.
Taoist disciples like Li Yan who knew some martial arts could easily kill them.
…
There was nothing to say all night, and I came out of the state of trance the next day.
When he opened his eyes, Zeng Yuanqing had already buried the bones of those people, made hot tea, and used dry food.
It was cloudless outside, and a gentle spring rain last night stopped early in the middle of the night.
Considering that both father and daughter were ordinary people with no martial arts skills, Li Yan simply lent them the ordinary horse he was riding on, and he simply used light skills to travel.
The ordinary horses trained by the veterinary hospital are very understanding of human nature. Even though Zeng Yuanqing was not very good at riding, he just tried to pull the bridle, and the horse followed the man's wishes and moved away.
Li Yan, on the other hand, was using his body skills to stand far behind, looking cool and freehand.
In the past, he defeated the three sects. As the instigator, he included many of the martial arts secrets of the three sects of Shuo Kingdom.
After achieving Xiantian, he went all over the world without any rivals, borrowed the secret techniques from various sects, and finally combined the strengths of hundreds of schools to create his own unique technique.
What is being used now is Jishitianya, who is known as the number one in Qinggong. He can cover a few feet with one step and easily catch up with the pace of a galloping horse.
This also made Zeng Yuanqing even more convinced of his identity as an innate grand master.
Before noon, a city with moss-covered rocks appeared in the eyes of the three of them.
After passing the city gate, the flow of people on the streets gradually increased.
Zeng Yuanqing also had to dismount his horse and led his daughter and horse through the crowd with difficulty.
It happened to be noon, and the vendors selling fresh food were walking on the streets, shouting and shouting.
But Zeng Yuanqing was worried about the people at home, so he didn't even think about stopping for a moment, and walked straight to the door of the mansion where there were seven entrances and seven exits.
On the lintel, the word Zeng Fu is engraved vigorously in gold lacquer.
Seeing the concierge at the door who was about to welcome him happily, Zeng Yuanqing finally breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that the eunuch's henchmen had not yet been able to extend their minions to Anyang.
Zeng Yuanqing took a deep breath, changed his smile, and was about to introduce Zeng Mansion to Li Yan behind him.
When I turned around, I found that there was no one behind me.
