son, don't mess around

Chapter 54 The Kite's Master

People who can appear in this wishful building have their own problems!

There are so many martial arts masters outside, dignitaries and dignitaries who want to enter the Ruyi Tower to have a glimpse of the world, but they cannot enter.But the rickety old man in front of him can move unimpeded in this building?
Just an old sweeper?

I'm afraid it's not that simple!
Lin Jiangnian narrowed his eyes, although he didn't know Lin Hengzhong well.But I learned a little bit from the woman in red and the servants in the house.

Although Lin Hengzhong is not a suspicious person, he is definitely not a good person.Thinking about destroying the kingdoms, the king with a different surname is naturally not a good person.

This Ruyi building has devoted all his efforts to collecting the peerless treasures that have been searched from all over the world over the years.Such an important place, how could an ordinary person be allowed to guard the building and sweep the floor here?

Even if the rickety old man in front of him is not a peerless master, he is definitely not a simple person!
Most of them have extraordinary origins!

With a certainty in his heart, Lin Jiangnian's mind gradually cleared up.After thinking for a while, he slowly approached the old man and said, "Senior?"

The old man, who was sweeping the floor with his head down, seemed to have realized something. He glanced back at Lin Jiangnian, and seemed slightly startled: "It's you?"

"it's me!"

Lin Jiangnian nodded with a smile on his face: "Senior, we meet again!"

The old man shook his head slightly: "I can't be called a senior..."

After that, he turned around and wanted to continue sweeping his floor.

"senior!"

Lin Jiangnian called to stop him.

The old man paused: "Is there anything else?"

Lin Jiangnian nodded slightly, looked up and down the old man in front of him, and said, "I want to have a good chat with senior, I wonder if senior can... show me some face?"

The old man sighed: "What is there to talk about with me, a rotten old man?"

Lin Jiangnian said: "Since we can meet here, it is fate!"

"Furthermore, senior must have been here for a long time, and I also have some doubts and would like to ask senior to answer... I don't know senior, would you be willing?"

The old man looked up at Lin Jiangnian, and after a moment of silence, he nodded again: "Since you, a young man, are willing to talk to me, an old man, then that's fine..."

"It's been a long time since no one talked to this old man like me."

As he spoke, the old man swept away the last bit of dust on the ground, put down the broom, and walked to the side of the bookshelf.

Behind the bookshelf over there, near the window, stood an old and dark table.On the table lay a half-open book, a lamp, and a half-jug of wine.

The old man walked slowly to the table and sat down, "Sit down."

Lin Jiangnian was not polite either, he stepped forward and sat down opposite the old man, looking up at him.

The old man stretched out his hand and hammered his waist, and sighed: "I'm getting old, I can't do it!"

He looked like an old man on the verge of death, old and weak, with no signs of a hidden world master at all.

Camouflaged?
But... this disguise is a bit too similar?

Lin Jiangnian remained expressionless, and tentatively asked, "Senior, is this year your Geng?"

The old man sighed: "I can't remember clearly, probably past sixty."

More than 60?
"Senior is getting stronger and stronger, but I can't see it!"

Lin Jiang smiled young, and asked again: "How long did the senior stay in this wishful building?"

"About twenty years ago."

20 years?
Lin Jiangnian's heart skipped a beat.

Can you stay in this wishful building for more than 20 years?
Doesn't it mean that the old man in front of him has been from middle age to old age?

"Senior, haven't you been out in the past 20 years?"

"No."

"Why don't seniors go out?"

"Why do you want to go out?"

"..."

The old man's cloudy eyes were very calm, and he just sighed: "I'm such a bad old man, I don't know where to go if I leave here, so it's better to stay here, clean!"

The more we talked, the more Lin Jiangnian felt that this old man was not simple.He glanced at the half-open book on the table, and could vaguely see some content...

What surprised Lin Jiangnian was that the books were not martial arts secret books, nor were they books on political strategies and strategies. Instead, they were...philosophical thoughts on self-cultivation?

"Senior has stayed in Ruyi Building for more than [-] years, so he must be familiar with it?"

Lin Jiangnian who came back to his senses spoke again.

The old man thought for a while, then nodded slightly: "It's pretty familiar... I don't know what you want to ask?"

"I have nothing to do recently, and I am a little interested in martial arts and poisons in the world, so I want to ask senior..."

Lin Jiangnian looked at him, and tentatively asked: "Can senior know what are the most powerful martial arts and poisons in the world?"

Martial arts is just a cover, Lin Jiangnian's real purpose is to try to get clues about Gu poison from the mouth of the old man in front of him.

The old man was slightly taken aback, and after glancing at Lin Jiangnian, he shook his head lightly: "Who is the most powerful in martial arts in this world? There has been no distinction between high and low in martial arts since ancient times, it's just people who are high and low... If you want to learn martial arts, this is Ruyi There are all kinds of martial arts in the building, it depends on what you like... As for the poison you mentioned..."

The old man sighed softly, and pointed to the book on the shelf next to Lin Jiangnian: "You can look for it!"

Lin Jiangnian turned his head and found a book from the nearby bookshelf, a book about poisons in the world.

Lin Jiangnian saw this book yesterday, and after glancing at the contents of the book, he calmly asked: "This book says that there was a poisonous poison in the Miao border of the subjugated country in the past, and this poison can be called the best in the world? "

"Probably so..."

The old man nodded slightly.

"Senior understand this poison?"

"I don't understand."

"If I want to learn Gu poison, can senior give me some pointers?"

The old man looked at Lin Jiangnian and shook his head slightly: "I can't teach you."

"Why."

"The most difficult thing about poisonous Gu is not to lay it down, but to raise it... Whether or not it can be cultivated is the most critical step for poisonous Gu!"

"The art of raising Gu is almost extinct, and it's not easy to learn it. And this poison is too overbearing, it's against the law of nature..."

Speaking of this, the old man seemed to think of something, and sighed softly: "Anyone who raises Gu will most likely suffer backlash."

"Backlash?"

Lin Jiangnian focused his eyes: "How do you say that?"

The old man squinted his eyes, as if he was thinking about something, and after a while, he said slowly: "In the land of Miaojiang, there used to be a teaching of raising Gu. It is rumored that Gu insects are extremely difficult to cultivate, and they are too rare. Those who raise Gu need their own blood Raise it until it resonates with the Gu worm before it can be considered successful..."

"Therefore, once the Gu worm is damaged, the person who raises the Gu will definitely suffer a backlash. Of course, in addition to this, there is a more mysterious love Gu..."

"Love Gu?"

Hearing the name, Lin Jiangnian asked: "What kind of Gu poison is this?"

"This Gu poison is too mysterious, and there is very little news about it. We only know that it is the treasure of the Miaojiang Gu sect, but it has been lost for nearly a hundred years. This Gu insect is extremely difficult to refine and grow. As for what is the use... ..."

The old man sighed lightly: "There are rumors in the world that people who have been bewitched by love will gradually develop feelings for the person who has been bewitched. In addition, it is rumored that once the worm is bewitched, the relationship between the bewitched person and the bewitched person will be different." Fate is bound together, if something happens to one person, the other person will not be able to survive...so it is called Love Gu."

Speaking of this, the old man shook his head again: "However, the love Gu has been lost for nearly a hundred years, and there is no way to verify whether it is true or not. It's just a rumor..."

"..."

Lin Jiangnian was silent.

He couldn't get the solution to the Gu poison from the old man in front of him, but he also had a general understanding of the Gu poison.

The more you understand, the more shocked you will be!
Gu poison is indeed too terrifying and domineering, damaging to morality!
You said a good girl, what kind of poison is she doing?
Lin Jiang sighed young, then looked up at the old man in front of him again.From the communication just now, he became more and more convinced that the old man in front of him was not simple.

Thinking of this, Lin Jiangnian's heart moved: "By the way, I haven't asked the name of the senior..."

Just as Lin Jiangnian was about to inquire about the origin of this senior's name, and went back to check it carefully, suddenly, footsteps came from behind him.

"Da da……"

In the quiet attic room, gentle steps stepped on the wooden planks of the attic, making a slight sound.

very light.

Like a woman's steps.

Lin Jiangnian subconsciously turned around and saw a familiar figure.

The kite in a purple shirt and long dress slowly appeared in the attic.

"How did you come?"

Lin Jiangnian frowned, his heart suddenly vigilant.

"Your Highness."

Zhiyuan approached slowly, looked at Lin Jiangnian with her cool and beautiful eyes, and spoke softly.

Then he raised his eyes and looked at the old man opposite Lin Jiangnian.

Immediately, she lowered her eyes and said in a slightly respectful tone: "Master."

"master?!"

Lin Jiangnian was startled suddenly.

"..."
