Ring

Chapter 40

So the two immediately packed up their things and checked out of the room after breakfast.Wei Shenzhi's car was in the garage of the Wei family's main residence, so he definitely couldn't pick it up now, so the two took a taxi again.Wei Shenzhi first asked the driver to drive to the suburbs outside the city.The surrounding scenery became more and more desolate, Wei Shenzhi directed the driver to turn left and turn right, and finally stopped at a deserted path.This path is paved with bluestone slabs and is less than one meter wide.The surface of the bluestone slab has been worn out with pits and hollows, and there are traces of erosion by rainwater and wind and sand, as if it has existed for hundreds of years.And the trail itself leads into dense woods, with no end in sight at first glance.

Wei Shenzhi and Edgar removed the salute from the trunk of the car.Those big boxes looked extremely heavy, so the taxi driver went down to help, but Wei Shenzhi refused.He put it away and saluted, paid the car, thanked the driver, and the driver got in the car and left.When he left, he looked back at this place again.This piece of forest is lush and lush, compared with the stretches of standard villas a few kilometers away, the chemical factories further away, and the polluted barren land, it doesn't seem to exist in the same world. ... No, not only factories and villas, but even the surrounding countryside are incompatible with this forest.And that small road is even more quaint, as if it has been forgotten by the vicissitudes of time, it will always maintain an ancient and full of vitality.

With that in mind, he slowly drove out of the land, and soon the familiar road came into view.He suddenly thought of turning back to find the way he came here, but he could only see the green forest, but he couldn't find the beautiful path no matter what.

The pulleys of the suitcase rolled over the path, making an abrupt sound.And the birds in the breath of the forest were startled by this.Edgar followed Wei Shenzhi all the way, and slowly walked into a wide grassland, where unknown wild flowers bloomed, and there were some little rabbits.These fluffy little creatures are not afraid of people at all, but cling close to Wei Shenzhi's feet, licking his leather shoes from time to time, as if to express their friendship.Wei Shenzhi smiled dotingly, hugged one or two, and raised his eyebrows at the surprised Edgar.

"These rabbits are raised by my grandmother. They are very spirited and not afraid of people at all... But, don't step on them. Grandma will get angry if you step on them."

Edgar looked down at the little things circling around him. To be honest, he hadn't received this kind of treatment—American rabbits just run away when they see people.However, fortunately, he was a stranger, and as a blood race, he had the fearful aura of small animals. All the little rabbits only dared to keep a certain distance from him, but none of them ran forward.

The two continued to walk forward, and after a while, the trees gradually disappeared, replaced by many tall bamboos, and in the center of the bamboo forest was a quaint mansion.This mansion is not like an ordinary Chinese ancient mansion. It is carved with flowers, birds, insects, fish, landscape figures, and supplemented by back scenes through windows. Every corner is decorated and carved beautifully and perfectly; this mansion It makes people feel peaceful and serene, as if just looking at it, the soul can be baptized and live forever in this paradise-like land.

Wei Shenzhi raised his head and looked at the moderately large plaque in the center. The word "Si Yun" was written in the traditional Chinese characters of "Si Yun" in cursive script.According to legend, in ancient times, Taoist Si Yun flew away from the ice cliff, so the word "Si Yun" has been handed down, which means that he is in charge of Baiyun and ascended to immortality.And his grandmother Wei Siyun did not insult these two words.Among the several generations of celestial masters in the Wei family, she was already extremely outstanding, but unfortunately, her ability could no longer be displayed at an untimely time.And Wei Siyun didn't feel depressed or resentful because of this.She performed the maze of nine palaces and drew a formation around the ancient house of the Wei family, isolating a piece of land from the outside world, and all the creatures in the formation are also nourished by her mana and aura, so the trees are lush and lush, and birds and animals can listen to it. human language.

Since then, no matter how time flies by outside, no matter how vicissitudes of life have changed outside, the Wei family's ancestral house is still quiet and peaceful for several miles, and it still maintains its appearance in the 33rd year of the Republic of China.The only difference is that the person who was in charge of the Wei family back then was a young and beautiful girl, but the person who is still here today is a gray-haired old man.

Wei Siyun heard the noise, and slowly walked out of the house.She was still wearing the costumes of the Republic of China period, a dark blue cheongsam dotted with white plum blossoms, and a pair of ordinary silk head cloth shoes on her feet.Her long snow-white hair swayed gently in the wind like falling snow, and the sharp sword in her hand reflected the cold sky.She looked no more than 50 years old, and there were already some wrinkles around the corners of her eyes and forehead.However, those slender eyes and willow-leaf-like eyebrows are the same as back then, making people think of her youthful appearance, how magnificent she must be.

"grandmother."

Wei Shenzhi put down his salute, took a few steps forward, and actually knelt down on one knee, respectfully kneeling in front of her.Looking at his beloved grandson, Wei Siyun's sharp eyebrows finally softened.She leaned down to help Wei Shenzhi up, stroking his cheek with some old hands, "Shenzhi, you are back."

"Grandma, I'm sorry for worrying you all this time..."

"What nonsense are you talking about, kid." She rubbed his shoulders and looked at his face carefully, "Well...compared to last time, he seems to be a little thinner...Did you not eat well? Or did you eat? Are you not used to things from foreigners?"

……

Edgar looked at the grandparents and grandson asking for their health, and stood aside politely without disturbing.When the grandfather and grandson finally separated, Wei Siyun's gaze shifted to him, and suddenly he returned to the coldness before.Edgar narrowed his eyes, because he noticed that her aura had changed suddenly—just now she was a kind and peaceful elder, but in a blink of an eye, she turned into a sharp sword shining with cold light, just like she was holding a sword in her hand. same weapons.A heavy and icy oppression rushed towards his face, and an ordinary person would have been so frightened that his legs would go limp.At this moment, those slender eyes flickered with icy scrutiny, as if she wanted to pull out one's thoughts and place them in broad daylight, and even the most trivial thoughts could not escape her eyes.

Bathed in this coercion, Edgar still smiled and said nothing.He didn't straighten his back like facing a big enemy, but walked a few meters in front of her as if nothing had happened, bowed and saluted her: "Ms. Wei, hello."

Wei Shenzhi stood aside, gave Edgar a comforting look, but did not speak.

"Edgar Bathory Flanders." She said coldly, "we finally meet again."

"Yes, ma'am. You are younger and more beautiful than I thought."

"Hmph, he is indeed a foreigner, and he speaks so glibly." Wei Siyun's words were still very cold, "Do you remember our agreement?"

"Naturally remember."

"Okay, tell me," she suddenly pointed to Wei Shenzhi who was standing beside him, "His name?"

"Wei Shenzhi."

Although it has not reached the point where the words are correct, but it is already very similar, but Wei Siyun's complexion is even worse.After finally finding a reason to settle accounts with this kid openly and beat him severely, I didn't expect that he actually learned it.Although it was just a trivial matter, it could prove his sincerity towards Wei Shenzhi.

...But, this kid's smile is too hideous!It really makes people not get beaten, and they don't understand their hatred!

Wei Siyun suddenly swung his sword.A cold edge flashed past, and suddenly countless bright yellow papers floated down from the sky, like countless Dao talismans floating in the air.She pushed Wei Shenzhi away, pulled the sword flower, and shouted at the same time: "Burn!"

In an instant, the flames rushed, and all the talisman papers ignited spontaneously without fire.Wei Siyun swung his long sword again, and the burning talisman papers were already blown up by the hurricane, forming a coiling dragon in the air, and following her instructions, they rushed directly towards Edgar!

"grandmother!"

Wei Siyun turned a deaf ear to his call.And Edgar did not sit still.Although most of the power has been sealed, the speed of the flame is not very fast, so it is no problem to avoid it.He dodged the flames with swaying footsteps, but the fire dragon couldn't make a single blow, but it could sense the target's position, and turned around to rush towards Edgar.Hiding around is really not a solution.

Thinking of this, he folded his hands in an inverted cross in front of his chest, lowered his eyebrows and recited a few incantations silently.Seeing that the fire dragon was about to hit him in the chest, Edgar suddenly changed his gesture, and a translucent barrier like black crystal spread from the intersection of his fingers!The fire dragon hit the black crystal barrier, and the ground trembled slightly.

Wei Siyun didn't make another move, but watched the flames and the black magic barrier strangle each other with cold eyes.The power of the flame is not very strong, but it has an endless strength, like a mountain topple the sea, as if the big and small circles are circulating, and there is a posture of endless life.As for Edgar, who has been sealed away for the vast majority, he is already weak, and being able to use black magic is already at the end of his strength, and this flame is even more likely to consume his strength!

——It really doesn’t work, I can only use that...

Just as he was thinking this way, he suddenly felt a loosening in front of him, followed by the sound of a spell breaking through the air.He raised his head in astonishment, only to see that Wei Shenzhi had picked up the last talisman.The red light flickered between the talisman papers, and the bright red talisman suddenly came out of the talisman paper. A strange array pattern emerged from under his feet and turned slowly. Exhausted the power of the fire dragon!

Wei Shenzhi solved his predicament, pulled him back, and looked at Wei Siyun helplessly: "Grandma, this will kill people!"

Wei Siyun didn't blame him for obstructing him, she looked at Wei Shenzhi with approving eyes mixed with astonishment.To be honest, she really didn't expect Wei Shenzhi to exert the power of that spell to such an extent - after all, he has almost never been exposed to Taoism - this is simply more genius than himself back then...

Thinking of the successors in the Wei family line, Wei Siyun felt mixed feelings.She should have been happy, because finally there is such a talented child who can inherit the inheritance of her ancestors, but her father once told her that after the No. 13 generation of the Wei family, that is, the generation of Wei Shenzhi and Wei Jingjing, if The descendants of the Wei family continue to learn the Tao of Yin and Yang, regardless of gender, they are destined to die.If there are brothers and sisters among the same generation who have learned Taoism, then there will not be more than one descendant of compatriots who have not learned Taoism.Wei Shenzhi has decided to spend his whole life with a Western monster and of course there will be no heirs, while Wei Jingjing...

Even if the Wei family can pass on Wei Shenzhi, the No. 13 generation, what use is it?Jingjing and her heirs can no longer study.If you don't want to end your offspring...

But now is not the time to think about it.Wei Siyun took a few steps forward, sheathed his sharp long sword, and stared at Edgar with lightning-like eyes: "What did you want to summon just now?"
