Chapter 668 Successor, Assassination

Wen Yan looked at the old man's body, sighed, and fumbled in his bag. He was going to light some incense, but when he saw a pack of cigarettes, he took out three cigarettes, lit them for the old man, and inserted them in front of him.

He didn't know the old man, but he had heard of many warriors like him before.

The sixth stage of the martial arts road is still being developed. Many fifth-stage warriors have died on this road, more than those who died in battle.

If he were the other person, when his life was about to end, if he didn't come to see and confirm this kind of thing, he would die with his eyes wide open.

If it were someone else, it would be hard to believe, but if it was him, Wen Yan, the other party would at least believe half of it.

The old man didn't mention any names in his last sentence. It was probably because there were still descendants alive and he didn't want to offend them to death.

But if he came to Wen Yan for nothing and didn't want Wen Yan to bear a grudge, he would definitely have to give information, and that information had actually been made clear.

If the old man can believe it, it is impossible to be anonymous. This person must have a sufficient identity, the source must be reliable, and his own character must be guaranteed that he will not lie about such things.

Secondly, there are many people who can say that they have high authority in front of Wen Yan, and there are actually many people in the Three Mountains and Five Peaks.

But those who meet the conditions of high authority and belonging to the Three Mountains and Five Peaks are all named.

For example, in Fuyu Mountain, apart from Wen Yan, there are only two people who meet this condition.

Qin Kun and the fourth uncle.

Even the great uncle of the great master actually does not meet the requirement of high authority. The great uncle of the great master basically does not participate in the tasks of the Lieyang Department. Although he has a high status, his real authority is definitely not as high as Wen Yan.

And those who meet all these conditions are actually no different from directly reporting the name of the Tianshi Mansion.

Wen Yan sighed. He really didn't expect that when the old Tianshi got into trouble, the first people to jump up were actually people from the Tianshi Mansion.

Thinking about it carefully, it was not too surprising.

When the old Heavenly Master was around, even Zhang Qihui, who was a direct descendant of the Zhang family, only dared to engage in Taoist soldiers outside and did not dare to say that he was a member of the Zhang family.

Others naturally kept a low profile and did what they should do.

But if the old Heavenly Master was not around, how tempting would the title of the contemporary Heavenly Master be.

The highest honor of the Heavenly Master's Mansion, in the era of spiritual energy revival, fame, wealth, power, etc., no matter which one you want, this title can satisfy you.

What's more, the Heavenly Master's Mansion did not decide on the next Heavenly Master in advance.

If there were people with hope, it would be reasonable to compete with each other.

But if someone was found to stop him, the other party must know some secrets, knowing that the old Heavenly Master was not dead yet, but was already dying...

This is completely different.

Thinking of this, Wen Yan was shocked.

It's bad, the old Heavenly Master is not just killing the fish after catching it, but also choosing the next Heavenly Master for the Heavenly Master's Mansion.

If the Tianshi Mansion wanted to select the next Tianshi before the spiritual energy was revived, it would naturally follow the normal procedures and select people with both moral integrity and talent. If there is a difference in talent, it must be a person with moral integrity who can protect the ancestral foundation and inheritance.

But what is the era now?

It is nice to say that if you don't advance, you will retreat.

The emergencies and difficulties that the successor will encounter may not be encountered once every few decades, and may not even appear for decades.

The current successor may encounter emergencies, difficulties and crises every year.

At that time, if a crisis cannot be overcome, the consequence may be that the Tianshi Mansion will suffer a heavy blow at the worst. If it is more serious, the beautiful rivers and mountains around the Tianshi Mansion will face a major crisis.

And all those who hope to succeed, no matter how much experience they have had before, can actually be regarded as being protected under the wings.

In the simplest case, a monster commits a crime, and the people of the Tianshi Mansion who are on duty in the Lieyang Department will go directly to arrest it.

Then there is a great possibility that the alien on the opposite side will directly tie up the monster and send it out.

At the very least, they pretended to be confused and played Tai Chi. Anyway, no matter what happened, they would not kill people directly.

These aliens dared to scold the field hawks of the Lieyang Department, but I have never heard of aliens scolding the hawks of the Tianshi Mansion, and I have never seen anyone dare to scold the old Tianshi.

But if the old Tianshi died, the gap between the younger generation would be too big, and when encountering many things, their attitudes would be completely different.

Now, the people in the Tianshi Mansion are pushed to the limit, their biggest trump cards are pulled out, and they are forced to grow up when facing a sudden crisis, and they are forced to show their true nature, or make changes.

Some people who have the hope of succession want to fight.

Some people, who don't want to fight, will also be involved in the fight.

There are also some people who can see the long-term and understand that they must fight.

At this time, the person who can suppress others and finally get the recognition of the fellow Taoists of the Three Mountains and Five Peaks, and be the protagonist at the succession ceremony, must have no shortcomings in means, mind, and ability.

But similarly, if someone suddenly encounters a major change, and has no problems for the previous thirty or forty years, but cannot strengthen his heart at this moment, then he is just eliminated.

Wen Yan's thoughts turned, and he suddenly realized this at this time. Before, he really didn't think about what talents would emerge from the Tianshi Mansion. At most, there would be internal competition.

It seems that the old Tianshi is much clearer than him. At this time, whether it is a big deal or limited to the Tianshi Mansion, there is no room for a tender transfer of power.

If you don't make up your mind now, with the current environment and expectations for the future, it will definitely cause a disaster in the future that will push the Tianshi Mansion into the abyss.

The old Tianshi is really ruthless and thinks long-term.

Wen Yan felt that something he could think of would definitely be something others could think of.

The guy who is the first to be a bird at this moment is indeed stupid and bad.

Wen Yan thought about it and took a photo of the old man and asked the black box to match his identity.

The matching result came out soon. Wen Yan looked at his resume and sighed in a complicated expression.

This old man was a meritorious minister, and even his two sons were all dead, leaving only one grandson.

According to the records, if this old man hadn't had shed too much blood when he was young, he might have really hoped to break out of the sixth stage of martial arts.

He raised his head, looked at the old man's body that was dead but could not fall, took out his cell phone and said to the black box.

"Transmitted to Feng Yao, today I met this old man and had a great conversation. The old man's deadline has come, and his final wish has been fulfilled. He ended with a smile and sent a car to collect the body and sent him... to Decheng Funeral Home. At the same time, Notify the family."

Wen Yan didn't say that he was stopped, but just met by chance. As for the people from the Tianshi Mansion, the old Tianshi took care of him and he was too lazy to take care of him.

On the other side, Feng Yao was shocked when he received the message. Why did this old man suddenly die there?

He was about to call Wen Yan, and looked at the information, and after thinking about it for a while, he realized something was wrong.

After thinking about it, I thought about the fact that many things were wrong in Nanwu County today, so he didn't call out the phone and just handled it according to Wenyan. What's the matter? Let's talk about it later.

At the same time, in Decheng, Gauss from the hospice department left after get off work and went to have a meal.

The local people from the Lieyang tribe are basically ineffective and have combat effectiveness. They were seconded a few months ago and have not returned yet.

There are generally two cases here.

Ordinary cases can be solved without the participation of field combatants from the Lieyang Department.

Or it is a case that the field combatants of the Lieyang Department cannot handle at all.

Gao Si is not here, and Wen Yan is not here, and today, Pei Tugou is still on a business trip in the next county.

It was also very coincidental that the family members, including the silly son, went out to play with Xiao Wu.

The house looked empty.

In the western river in the south, there was a freight river boat passing by, and the big grass carp followed the water snake and wandered behind, with two people staring at each other.

"There are people on the boat who have blood and resentment. They must be the kind of bad guy mentioned in the case. What should I do?" The water snake muttered.

"You can't drown in the water anyway!" The big grass carp stared at her eyes and blocked the simplest path.

"If you don't do this, we might not be able to beat it. You have tried these days. Some people are very strong after falling into the water."

"Anyway, you can't drown in the water! Our water hasn't drowned anyone in a year. If you dare to drown him, I'll kill you first!" The big grass carp stared at her eyes and said harshly.

Seeing the big grass carp like this, the water snake immediately admitted its conscience and gave up this idea. The big grass carp was really brave.

"Or what if you want someone to borrow a phone number?"

"right."

The two demons swam around the shore and finally went to find Lao Turtle to borrow his cell phone.

On the other side, in the newly opened bath center, Chen Tao, who was still scrubbing his bathing service, was called from the lounge and gave a guest a bath. As soon as he started, he knew that the guest was from the north. And he is a warrior who takes the hard line.

After the bath center was opened, Chen Tao felt that his apprentice was Apiao, so he had to take another living person, and he didn't have to be too talented.

Just as I was so idle that I started working again, I came here to scrub and touch people's bones.

While rubbing the shower, Chen Tao routinely promoted a package, touching the bones while scrubbing the shower, while thinking about the details of the person in front of him.

It should be that practicing boxing hurts oneself, the muscles on one's body and the way of exerting force, and it is better to fight with others. It's okay when the hair droops. At this moment, wipe the other person's forehead first and immediately notice the fierce aura between the person's eyebrows. Cover.

When the shower was over, Chen Tao understood in his heart that this man came to Decheng to kill people, and he should have not succeeded yet and was about to go.

Chen Tao thought about it and took out his phone and sent a message.

He lived here very comfortably and opened a bath center. Although he couldn't make money here, he didn't lose much. After adding the new business of squeezing, he still couldn't make money or lose money. He was very Satisfied.

If there was a strange warrior who might be the fourth stage and ran to Decheng to kill people, he could see it, and he would not say it yet. Wen Yan would definitely be unhappy if he knew it.

This little thing must be taken care of.

In the community in the north of Decheng, a van from a moving company drove in, right in front of the villa area.

After coming in, I saw a shadow, which was close to Wen Yan's house quickly following the shadow of the garden.

The shadow arrived at Wen Yan's yard, looked at the open door, and paused slightly.

I entered it all the way, as if I had been here early, and walked along the road to the basement.

When I arrived at the basement, I looked at the basement that there was a downward passage, so I paused and continued to walk down.

All the way to the underground beehive, and to Huo Yong's cell, a figure slowly stood up in the shadow.

The man looked at the door of the cell with a confused look on his face.

The door of the cell was not locked at all, but was just a false cover. He gritted his teeth, stretched out his hand, and pulled it gently, and the door was indeed opened.

The inside of the cell was empty. The person who came looked left and right, but he didn't see the surveillance camera, so he stepped into it.

As he entered it, a wisp of flame ignited silently. The flame turned into a long whip, wrapping around him, binding his body.

The flame transformed in front of him, and finally, Huo Yong appeared, pinching his neck with one hand and lifting him up.

"Don't... Lord Huo Yong, the villain is ordered to take advantage of this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to come and put out Lord Huo Yong and leave!"

"Who told you to come?" Huo Yong frowned. He didn't like the aura on the person in front of him very much. He always reminded him of the dead corners. As he spoke, his hands began to exert force.

"What happened outside? Where is Wen Yan?"

"Wen Yan has been taken away. I only know that someone will definitely stop Wen Yan from coming back, and maybe he can be killed."

"Huh?" Huo Yong frowned, his face even worse.

The person who was pinched up quickly continued to say, seeing Huo Yong's expression was not good-looking.

"Don't worry, Lord Huo Yong, the person who took action is an old man who is about to die. After the opponent takes action, he will definitely die. Instant beauty is the warrior's life-threatening skill. Wen Yan must be dead."

Hearing this, Huo Yong exerted his strength in his hand. He only threw him aside after the other party fainted. It was too unlucky to kill someone here.

He was caught by Wen Yan's direct fight and win. If he could beat Wen Yan, he would of course go out openly.

After staying here for a while, he has become a little used to it.

Especially when I heard that Xing Tian family had settled down nearby, they didn't continue to look for trouble except for looking for someone to fight.

At this moment, he felt even more uncomfortable when he saw a guy who was very uncomfortable with his breath and said these things.

If you are rescued by this kind of person and rescued by this method, it is better to stay here.

Huo Yong looked at the man who was fainted and closed the prison door directly.

He was waiting here.

More than ten minutes later, outside the hospital in the north of Decheng.

Several people have appeared here, including warriors and professionals, but there are no Apiao and no monsters.

Only people can enter Decheng more easily.

Seeing the direction of the inpatient department, there were many people coming and going, so they each entered the building of the inpatient department.

The old master leaned against the hospital bed, took a little drip, ate some steamed buns, and then took a miniature version of Zhuanggu Pill.

In more than a day, his condition has recovered a lot, at least he should not be able to die.

After a few months of recovery, it is possible to return to normal.

Suddenly, the door of the ward was opened silently.

The old master did not look up. At the moment when the strong wind came, his body moved slightly, moving away from the vital points.

The blade slashed along the area up to three centimeters in front of his neck, and the edge even stinged his skin.

If the attack fails, the visitor is shocked. He is just a thin old man. How could he avoid it?

The moment his eyes turned, the old master raised his head and looked at him.

"Shhh, quiet."

The old master muttered softly, and the visitor's pupils immediately spread.

The strength on his body had not dissipated, but the man had already sat honestly on the ground, leaning there motionless.

The whole person seemed to be stupid and shrank into a ball. The whole process was still deliberately keeping his hands and feet lightly without causing any movement.
