Chapter 2936

"Yes, we'll follow Martial Uncle's arrangement!" Everyone bowed.

Yun Mengzi didn't delay. With a wave of her hand, a rainbow covered the four of them. A rainbow flashed under Yun Mengzi's feet, and several people quickly rushed into the sky and disappeared.

As for Jiang Feiyan's request to send a message to the sects in the Country of Xi, hoping that they would send their disciples to fight against the sword cultivators and rescue Li Zongbao and the others from the sword cultivators' attack, the four of them had already forgotten about it. After all, their safety compared to the Sky Patrol City … was too insignificant!

Xiao Hua naturally didn't know about this, he was still sitting cross-legged in the quiet room. Right now, it had already been several days since he started recording the Cloud Traversing Rain Summoning Technique. Without anyone's guidance, Xiao Hua finally recorded the thirty-six green seal characters into his bones one by one according to the instructions in the soul technique Zi Ming gave him!

Although Xiao Hua was unbearably tired, his mental strength was also greatly exhausted!

But the harvest was extremely rich. Not only did Xiao Hua have a deeper understanding of the green seal characters, but the flexibility and flexibility of the soul strands were also much better than before. Xiao Hua was even confident that if he was given another ten days, he would absolutely comprehend the green seal characters given to him by Elder Wu.

However, just as Xiao Hua put away the bone and rested for a few days, a guard called from outside again.

Xiao Hua didn't even think about it. He immediately removed the Capital Star Array and walked out of the quiet room. He knew that today must be the auspicious day for Zi Ming to light the Soul Extinguishing Lamp. He couldn't delay this Lantern Burning Ceremony.

Sure enough, when the dark-skinned guard saw Xiao Hua come out, he immediately bowed and greeted him. Similarly, he spoke fluently in the Three Kingdoms of Cultivation respectfully, "Young Master Xiao, tonight is the Lantern Burning Ceremony of Miss Zi Ming of the Houtu Stockade. This humble one is specially ordered by Elder Wu to invite Young Master."

"Good!"

Xiao Hua nodded. Looking at the sky outside, it was dusk. Presumably, Zi Ming's Lantern Burning Ceremony would be held at midnight.

"This way please!" The guard bowed and extended his hand, inviting Xiao Hua to walk in a direction.

"You lead the way!" Xiao Hua looked at the somewhat gloomy corridor, and asked again, "Where are the other senior brothers of this Xiao?

Shall we go together? "

"Reporting to Young Master!"

The imperial bodyguard followed Xiao Hua's instructions and walked to the front. He bowed slightly and turned his head, "Young Master Li, Young Master Xiao, and the others have already left. In order to show our respect to the distinguished guests, Elder Wu instructed us to invite you one by one!

Young Master, I was the first to arrive. However, because Young Master was in seclusion, I waited for a while. I believe the other guards have already invited Young Master Li and the others over! "

"Hmm ~" Xiao Hua casually nodded. He followed the guard through the layers of shadows. The dusk gradually became heavier, shrouding the many palaces in Houtu Village, giving birth to a heavy feeling. Walking in this heavy atmosphere made Xiao Hua feel like he couldn't bear the burden.

As he was walking, an old maidservant suddenly appeared from the side of a palace door and blocked the guard's path.

The guard was obviously stunned, then immediately bowed. Without waiting for him to speak, that servant girl raised her voice and said, "Xiao Hua, Young Master Xiao, my family's Ji Man has a matter to ask. Young Master Xiao, please follow this humble one!"

"Oh?"

Xiao Hua raises his eyebrows. He looks at the servant girl from head to toe and says coldly, "Is Ji Manda in this Houtu Stronghold?

Or is it Elder Wu? "

"Naturally it's Elder Wu!"

The servant girl's face is slightly angry, "Even if Elder Wu is more honorable than my family's Ji Man, you can't disobey Ji Man's orders!"

"What a joke!"

Xiao Hua doesn't want to see Ji Man at this time. He waves his hand and says, "This Xiao is going to the Dipankara Ceremony under Elder Wu's orders. If Ji Man wants to see this Xiao, please come to the Dipankara Ceremony!"

"Impudent!" The servant girl is furious. She seems to have never seen someone like Xiao Hua who doesn't put Ji Man in his eyes.

"Young Master Xiao …" At this time, a faint voice comes from the palace behind the servant girl.

"Greetings to Ji Man!"

The guard hurriedly bows and greets, his face carrying a trace of embarrassment. It's Ji Man's dignified and irrefutable tone.

"Greetings to Ji Man!"

Xiao Hua also bows and says, "Forgive this junior for being rude, but this should be Zi Ming's Dipankara Ceremony. Lord Ji Man and this junior should appear at the ceremony on time.

Even if Ji Man doesn't want to go, this junior can't delay! "

"The Dipankara Ceremony is my Houtu Village's most important ceremony, and it hasn't been held for many years!

As Ji Man, how can this old one be delayed on such an occasion?

Actually, if this old one isn't here, this Dipankara Ceremony … hehe … "Ji Man says halfway, then changes the topic," However, it's still early to the Dipankara Ceremony. Just like when you went to the Netherworld Eye with Zi Ye, you were able to rescue Elder Ji Lan and find the Netherworld Bamboo in this period of time … can't this old one ask you a few questions? "

Hearing Ji Man mention the Netherworld Eye, it seems to be a threat. Thinking about Zi Ming and the Dipankara Ceremony that is close at hand, Xiao Hua nods and says with a smile, "Since Ji Man wants to go to the ceremony with this junior in a while, this junior also hopes to listen to senior's teachings."

"En, come in!" Ji Man's voice is faint, "The two of you stay here and guard."

"Yes!" That maid fiercely glares at Xiao Hua, and the guard also helplessly stands at the side of the hall door.

Xiao Hua walks into the hall and sees Ji Man standing in the middle of the hall. At this time, Ji Man is dressed in splendid clothes, there are several layers of decorations on her head like a flower crown, and there are many thumb-sized white bones around her neck. Her clothes look very complicated, and there are many layers of strange patterns and tassels all over her body. Xiao Hua can't help but stare blankly at her.

"Young master Xiao …" Ji Man doesn't care about Xiao Hua's gaze, and directly asks, "Which great scholar's disciple are you?"

"Great scholar?" Xiao Hua stares blankly, somewhat baffled, "What's a great scholar?

This junior doesn't understand? "

Ji Man frowns slightly, and says indifferently: "Young master Xiao, since you are familiar with Zi Ming, you must have heard her mention it. This old one has a longing for the path of Confucianism, and this Shaman Stockade also has the legacy of Confucianism. Since there are some changes in your middle dantian, and you even asked this old one for the inheritance of Confucianism, could it be that you are not a disciple of Confucianism?"

Xiao Hua suddenly understands. Although he knows that Ji Man has already left the ancestral hall before he asked Elder Wu to search for the seal on his middle dantian, he also believes that even if Ji Man didn't know the secret of the seal on his middle dantian from Elder Wu, she can also know that he is asking Elder Wu for help regarding his middle dantian.

From these two aspects, it is normal for Ji Man to infer that he is a Confucianism.

However, Xiao Hua naturally has to deny it: "Ji Man misunderstands!

This junior thought that I was more curious about Confucianism, and in my early years in Xi country's Jingbo City, I saw a descendant of Confucianism, especially when I heard that Ji Man has the inheritance of Confucianism, so I asked for it. As for this junior … I am a genuine disciple of Daoism! "

"Xi country's Jingbo City?" Ji Man frowns, "Which great Confucian's descendant is that?"

"Hehe, Lord Ji Man, this is junior's secret, it is not convenient to tell senior!" Xiao Hua flatly refuses.

"Sigh, Young Master Xiao!" Ji Man sighs, "Are you still so guarded against this old woman?"

"Senior, what are you talking about!"

Xiao Hua says with a smile, "You are the influential figure of Houtu Stronghold, second only to one person and above tens of thousands. This junior is only a passer-by of Houtu Stronghold, completely unrelated to senior, there is no need to be guarded against!"

"Sigh, Xiao Hua!"

Ji Man is not satisfied with Xiao Hua's explanation and sighs again, "This old woman knows that this matter is my fault, I almost sent you, Zi Ming and the others into the arms of Houtu Great God!

However, you should also put yourself in this old woman's shoes!

Liu 'er is this old woman's legitimate son, he is the candidate for Elder Wu of Houtu Stronghold, how can this old woman not be anxious about his death?

Back then, when this old woman and Zi Ming's mother were fighting over Ji Man, there were some differences, but Zi Ming's mother was one step ahead and was chosen by Elder Wu, and this old woman was not chosen!

What Ji Man did to this old woman that day, there is no need for this old woman to explain in detail!

In the words of your Dao Sect, the dead are the most important, even if this old woman said it, you would not believe it! "

"Later on, Zi Ming's mother entered the arms of Houtu Great God, Zi Ming was too young to succeed Ji Man, so this old woman once again took over the position of Ji Man!

But at that time, the Soul Falling Lamp had already been bestowed to Zi Ming by Elder Wu, although Liu 'er had the qualifications to be Elder Wu, this qualifications fell behind Zi Ming and Zi Ye!

At that time, Liu 'er was extremely sensible, under this old woman's persuasion, he did not put the position of Elder Wu in his eyes!

But what about Zi Ming?

She took Ji Man's position as her own, she saw Liu 'er as her enemy, even when Zi Ye returned to the arms of Houtu Great God, she did not report this matter, she still let Zi Yan be ranked after Zi Ye who no longer exists! "

"This old woman already knew about this matter, but this old woman did not point it out, this old woman even tried to cover it up for her!

This old woman knew what she was thinking, she wanted to take back the position of Ji Man that belonged to her mother!

In fact, although this old woman coveted Ji Man's position, it was also for the sake of my Houtu Village. That year, if it was not for Zi Ming being too young and unable to take over Ji Man's position, this old woman would definitely have rejected Elder Wu!

This old woman's tolerance time and time again, I did not expect that Zi Ming would repay kindness with enmity, Xiao Hua, if you were in her place, and you heard that your family was killed, and this ending was what you had been worried about all this time, how would you react? "

Facing Ji Man's questioning and confession, Xiao Hua was silent. That day, Ji Man was truly crazy, almost taking the lives of Xiao Hua and the others!

But today, after hearing Ji Man's words, Xiao Hua also understood the hardships of being a mother, as the village's Ji Man.

"That's right, this old woman did scold Zi Ming's mother, but Zi Ming's mother scolded this old woman a hundred times more vicious than that day!" Seeing that Xiao Hua did not answer, Ji Man continued, "And this old woman wanted to kill all of you!

But that was because this old woman did not know the specific reason, she thought that you were the culprits who killed my Liu 'er!

Xiao Hua, think about it, even at that time, Zi Ming did not take out the soul bead, she … she actually suspected this old woman to that extent!

This old woman's heart … is still in pain! "
