【Chapter 169】Father and Son Meet
【Chapter 169】Father and Son Meet
In the eyes of Xiaoliu and the other two, Suzaku is just a fat chicken. Since the chicken had run into their yard on its own, they would feel guilty about its trip if they didn't catch it.
In a daze, Suzaku felt three malicious gazes. It opened its eyes lazily and saw three Qi Refining cultivators rushing towards it. With a start, it immediately woke up.
It opened its mouth and was about to spit out fire to burn the three people to ashes, but suddenly, the words Ye Yixin said before entering the room echoed in its mind, and it quickly closed its mouth.
Flapping its wings, it flew to a table not far away.
“This chicken can actually fly.”
“Chickens can fly.”
"No, have you ever seen a chicken that flies like a bird?"
"It shouldn't be strange for a chicken that evolved into a monster to fly like a bird, right?"
"This chicken is so fat, let's catch it and make chicken stewed with mushrooms." Zhuque has indeed gained a lot of weight in the past two years.
"You don't have to buy mushrooms to stew chicken with mushrooms, it's better to just make roast chicken."
"The beggar's chicken that the master taught me to make before was delicious."
"Then make beggar's chicken."
Ever since Ye Xian went out two years ago, the three of them have been using fasting pills to satisfy their hunger. Now seeing a fat chicken delivered to their doorstep, the three of them were drooling greedily.
The reason why they didn't think about anyone's contracted beast was mainly because of Suzaku's current appearance.
Zhuque opened his eyes wide: Do you three want to listen to what you are saying?
The three of them surrounded Suzaku from three directions.
The Vermillion Bird "whooshed" through the net woven by the three people with spiritual energy and flew to a spiritual fruit tree in the yard.
"Spiritual energy is useless against it, use magic weapons."
The three of them exchanged glances. Xiaoliu and another man named Luo Ming were responsible for knocking Zhuque down from the spiritual fruit tree, while Runan took out a net-like magic weapon and waited for an opportunity to act.
The Vermillion Bird flew down from the spiritual fruit tree and landed precisely on Xiaoliu's head. It stomped hard on Xiaoliu's head twice, and before Xiaoliu could reach out to catch it, it flew to another person's head.
Runan, who was holding a net-like magic weapon, was a step slower and the net covered Xiaoliu's head.
“Runan!!!” Xiaoliu glared at the person who caught him.
"It was your own fault for not hiding. You can't blame me." Runan picked up the net-like magic weapon covering Xiaoliu's head as if nothing had happened.
Luo Ming howled, "Ah, my hair!"
"You two attract its attention and get closer to each other. This way the target range will be smaller and I will definitely be able to catch it." Runan suggested.
"Okay, I'll do as you say."
Xiaoliu and Luoming had no objection.
The three had a great plan, but they didn't know that the "chicken" in their plan could understand what they said. The result was that after a while, all three of them had the same messy hair.
The Vermilion Bird was like a victorious rooster, standing on the top of the wall, looking up at the three people with disdain, and almost crowing "cock-a-doodle-doo".
"I feel like it can understand what we say."
“I feel the same way.”
The three of them looked at each other and stopped talking verbally, instead communicating through eye contact.
Zhuque felt that he could easily defeat the three of them with his own strength, so he didn't take them seriously at all. The result of underestimating the enemy was that it was first tormented by the three people, and finally caught in the net in Runan's hand.
"Finally caught you."
Runan happily put away the net, lifted it up, and stared at the Vermilion Bird in the net.
Perhaps he didn't expect that he would be caught in the net, and Suzaku had a confused expression on his face at this moment. All I see is: Who am I? Where am I?
Xiaoliu said happily: "I'll go boil a kettle of water."
Luo Ming also said: "I'll go get the knife and basin ready."
Runan put the net-shaped magic weapon and the Vermillion Bird on the ground and said, "I'll go clean the lotus leaves."
The three of them went about their business.
Just as Zhuque was about to destroy the net-like magic weapon with one claw, he sensed that the formation in Ye Yixin's room was closed.
It quietly retracted its claws, intending to act pitifully.
In fact, it is quite miserable.
Being chased by three starving ghosts, unable to spit fire, unable to speak, and unable to hurt the three people, it was so frustrated that it almost died, and several hairs on its body fell off.
When Ye Yixin came out of the room, she saw that the originally clean and tidy yard had become messy. Xiaoliu and the other two were busy in the small kitchen, and Suzaku was nowhere to be seen.
Suddenly, she had a bad feeling.
After taking a few steps towards the small kitchen, she immediately saw Suzaku trapped in a magic net in the corner.
The other party was looking at her with grievance.
Ye Yixin's eyelids couldn't help but twitch.
She shouted towards the small kitchen, "Xiao Liu, Runan, Luo Ming, the three of you come out."
Hearing the sound, three people hurried out of the small kitchen and called out in unison, "Miss."
Ye Yixin pointed at Suzaku and asked, "What do you want to do with it?"
Xiaoliu was quick to answer, "Make it beggar's chicken."
Staring at the three of them, Ye Yixin said unhappily, "You three actually dared to do something I wouldn't even dare to think about!"
Runan asked cautiously, "Miss, does this chicken have any origin?"
"It is Brother Nangong's contracted beast."
"Ah!" The three of them widened their eyes in surprise, and their hearts trembled.
"We thought the chicken had slipped in through the store door when we weren't paying attention. No, we didn't expect it to be Master Nangong's contracted beast."
After speaking nervously, Runan hurried forward to release Suzaku.
While helping Suzaku comb his feathers, he said, "Um... Brother Ji, I'm sorry! We didn't know you were Young Master Nangong's contracted beast. You have a big heart, so don't bother with the three of us."
Suzaku: God damn Brother Chicken!
Zhuque looked at Ye Yixin with resentment, as if saying, I have been called "Big Brother Ji", shouldn't you give me some compensation?
Will Ye Yixin compensate Zhuque?
The answer is definitely no.
Every wrong has its perpetrator and every debt has its creditor. Zhuque should seek compensation from the person who treated Zhuque as a dish.
Ye Yixin will not be a sucker.
"I have to go out for something." After saying this to Zhuque, Ye Yixin told Xiaoliu and the other two, "It has been living here recently. You three can take care of it when you are free."
Zhuque chirped twice, then jumped to Ye Yixin's feet, indicating that he wanted to go out with Ye Yixin.
"If you follow me, I'm afraid someone will catch you and make you into a dish again." Ye Yixin didn't want to take a chicken out.
Suzaku: It hurts.
As soon as Ye Yixin left, Xiaoliu and the other two, who had originally wanted to treat Suzaku as a piece of cake, immediately turned into lackeys.
"Brother Ji, are you thirsty?" Xiaoliu poured a cup of tea for Zhuque.
"Brother Ji, are you hungry?" Runan took out a small bowl of spiritual rice.
"Brother Ji, are you tired?" Luo Ming put a basin of warm water.
Surrounded by three people, all Zhuque could think of was the words "Big Brother Chicken". It closed its eyes and pretended to be faint.
At this moment, Zhuque was thinking, if only Xuanwu were here. The three people in front of him would definitely want to stew a pot of turtle soup when they see Xuanwu. This way, the three of them would no longer focus on it.
Xuanwu: I treated you as a brother, but you kicked me into the ditch.
What Suzaku thinks and wishes is destined not to come true.
From then on, Suzaku would hear Xiaoliu and the other two enthusiastically calling it "Big Brother Chicken" every day! It rejects it in its heart, but it cannot refute it. It regrets making the three rules with Ye Yixin every day.
Time flies, and three months have passed in the blink of an eye.
After staying in the world in the painting for more than 20 years, Ye Yishen not only became a third-level talisman master, but also broke through to the peak of the golden elixir realm.
Ye Chenyuan's cultivation level advanced from the early stage of the Spirit Transformation to the late stage of the Spirit Transformation. If he hadn't lacked resources for cultivation, his cultivation could have been further improved.
After leaving the world in the painting, the grandfather and grandson returned to the stone chamber.
Ye Yisheng, who received the inheritance of talisman art, drew a rune in the air to unlock the seal. He stretched out his hand and pushed the rune forward, and the rune fell on the stone door.
The next moment, the stone gate slowly rose up.
Ye Chenyuan walked in first.
Ye Yisheng followed closely behind.
After taking only a few steps, Ye Chenyuan stopped where he was. Ye Yisheng didn't expect him to stop suddenly and almost bumped into his back.
"Grandfather?" Ye Yishen called out in confusion.
Ye Chenyuan didn't answer, but just moved to the side so that Ye Yisheng could see the scene in front.
After just one glance, Ye Yisheng called out in surprise: "Yun Cheng."
There was no trace of joy on Ye Yuncheng's face. He just looked at Ye Yishen and Ye Chenyuan vigilantly and cautiously without saying a word.
Ye Yisheng: “???”
What's going on?
Second brother has lost his memory?
Or is the body possessed by a wandering ghost?
Just when Ye Yi was confused, a lazy voice suddenly sounded: "Boy, there are indeed two people in front of you, you are not trapped in an illusion."
Ye Chenyuan and Ye Yishen's eyes simultaneously shifted towards the source of the sound, which was a turtle the size of a palm.
Ye Yisheng, who had already seen the Vermillion Bird and the White Tiger, sensed a similar aura to those of the two beasts on the turtle. He recognized the turtle's identity at once.
Xuanwu, one of the four spirits of heaven and earth.
"Brother?" Ye Yuncheng called tentatively.
Not long ago, he and Xuanwu encountered a phantom python. He accidentally fell into the illusion of the Huantian Python, mistaking it for Ye Yishen, and almost sent himself into the Huantian Python's mouth.
Ye Yisheng said "hmm" and introduced the people around him: "This is the grandfather I mentioned to you in a telepathic message before."
"Grandfather, he is my second brother Ye Yuncheng."
Ye Yuncheng and Ye Chenyuan stared at each other, neither of them called out to the other.
Ye Yuncheng: This guy looks a bit like my eldest brother.
Ye Chenyuan: If you look closely, Ye Yuncheng actually looks somewhat like Qingyue.
"Ahem~" Ye Yishen coughed twice, interrupting the "affectionate" gaze between the two.
Ye Chenyuan took out a long-prepared Qiankun bag from his space ring: "It's our first meeting. This is a gift from your grandfather."
Ye Yuncheng subconsciously glanced at Ye Yishen, and only after seeing Ye Yishen nod did he take the Qiankun bag.
When he looked inside with his spiritual consciousness, his heart started beating wildly.
Oh my god, so many spirit stones.
There could be more grandfathers as generous as this one, so that he wouldn’t have to worry about resources for cultivation.
"Thank you, Grandfather."
Ye Chenyuan had no idea what Ye Yuncheng was thinking, and waved his hand cheerfully: "We are family, you are welcome."
Ye Yisheng: "Second brother, when did you come here? Have you seen father?"
"Brother, do you mean that father is here too?" Ye Yuncheng was really shocked by the news in Ye Yisheng's words.
Ye Yisheng immediately explained the reason why they came here.
Xuanwu suddenly said: "I roughly know where your father is."
Ye Yuncheng: "What are you planning?"
Xuanwu: "I just hope you can find someone quickly so that we can get out earlier."
"I think you have bad intentions." Ye Yuncheng snorted coldly.
Xuanwu: “…” Now that this kid has found a backer, he’s not afraid of it anymore?
Ye Chenyuan glanced at Ye Yisheng.
Although he didn't say anything, Ye Yisheng understood his eyes strangely. He was asking Ye Yisheng if he had any jade pendant that could cover his blood vessels. If so, they can use the blood test to find Ye Xian.
Ye Yisheng shook his head slightly at him.
"Second brother, what did you experience after you came in?" Ye Yisheng was actually asking in disguise how Ye Yuncheng knew Xuanwu.
Ye Yuncheng briefly recounted his experience, emphasizing that Xuanwu had beaten him for several days and nights for no reason.
After estimating the strength of both sides, Xuanwu felt that he could not gain any advantage against three people alone.
Then he said, "Boy, if you are not convinced, I will let you fight back."
It retracted its head into its shell, looking as if it was ready to be beaten by Ye Yuncheng.
If possible, Ye Yuncheng really wanted to fight back. But he had experienced before how hard the turtle shell was. If he attacks Xuanwu, he will be the one getting hurt, which is not cost-effective at all.
"Didn't you say you knew where my father was? Why don't you lead the way?"
Xuanwu: “…” I knew you wouldn’t take action!
With its short legs, it walked in one direction.
At this time, Ye Yishen and Ye Chenyuan realized that they were standing at the entrance of a passage that led to all directions, and the stone door behind them was the stone wall of one of the passages.
After a while, the three followed Xuanwu and stopped in front of a slightly damp stone wall.
"The person you are looking for should be inside." Xuanwu pointed to the stone wall.
The stone wall in front of me is just a stone wall, with no door or passage.
Instead of attacking the stone wall rashly, Ye Chenyuan took out a magic sword. After inputting spiritual energy into the sword, he tried to insert the sword into the stone wall.
The stone wall was very hard, and Ye Chenyuan needed to continuously input spiritual energy into the spirit sword.
Half a quarter of an hour later, he measured the thickness of the stone wall and used his magic sword to draw the shape of a door on the wall.
Afterwards, the grandfather, grandson, and grandson took turns cutting along the scratches.
It took the three of them an hour to successfully carve out a door.
As soon as the door opened, Xuanwu, who had been waiting for a long time, turned into a shadow and rushed in.
The grandfather and his two grandchildren followed closely behind.
But soon Ye Chenyuan and Ye Yishen stopped one after another, and turned to look behind them.
They saw a man walking out through the door they had dug out.
"Father." Ye Yishen called hurriedly.
Ye Xian suddenly stopped, turned around and looked at the person who called him in disbelief.
"Yisheng!"
"Finally I found your father." Ye Yishen said happily.
Ye Xian glanced at Ye Yishen, then shifted his gaze to Ye Chenyuan's face. Just by looking at the face that looked somewhat like Ye Yisheng, he guessed who the other person was.
Ye Chenyuan's eyes were fixed on Ye Xian, the joy in his eyes almost overflowing.
However, the warm scene of the father and son meeting was broken by a voice full of disappointment the next moment.
