Tianwei Chapter 243 Alive (1)
You are my cousin? I opened my mouth wide, stunned.
Of course, isn't it? He smiled and asked back, saying: We are all from the Yang family, we have the same blood, how can this be false?
What evidence do you have? I asked.
Evidence? He laughed. If I came to you just to prove who I am, then I would have climbed this mountain in vain.
This was a bit choking, but before I could say anything else, he continued: Grandpa said before I came out that it would be enough to find out your specific situation. No matter what, we are all from the Basuo lineage, and our separation back then was helpless.
What does that mean? I couldn't help but frown. I learned this habit from the Taoist priest.
Huh? He looked at me with some surprise and asked: Didn't Second Grandfather tell you about the family? Oh, right...
He clapped his hands lightly, as if he suddenly realized something: My second grandfather was sent away when he was very young, so it's normal that I didn't tell you about it.
Please explain clearly, what is the second grandfather? Although this is a question, I already have the answer in my heart. Could this person who claims to be my cousin really be another descendant of Ba Suo? Ba Suo... there are two families?
Hey, this little girl looks very strange, and seems unusual. She is your... He did not continue talking about Ba Suo, but focused his attention on Mr. Jiao.
She? I looked back at Mr. Jiao who was held in the arms of the little beauty and said: She is, uh, my daughter.
Daughter? So you have a family. It seems that this one is my sister-in-law. He smiled and looked at the little beauty.
Who is your brother-in-law? Him? The little beauty spat, looking unhappy.
I couldn't help but roll my eyes, as if no one really wants you to be their "brother-in-law", what a bullshit!
But to have such a lovely and somewhat... this girl with such a beautiful sister-in-law is really extraordinary. He continued, completely ignoring the little beauty's fiery eyes.
Don't change the subject. Who are you? Don't say you're my cousin. I don't know you and I don't have a cousin. I was a little angry and my tone was also angry. This guy took advantage of me right away, and he looked around and talked about other things. He didn't look like a good person at all.
Yang Zongxu said that someone claimed to be my relative and looked for me in Yuanling, so I think it must be him.
It seems that you still don't believe it, but there are many ways to make you believe it. The most reliable one should be to ask my aunt whom I seldom see.
Aunt? My mom?
Of course. He smiled and said: Instead of me proving myself, it is better to find someone you are most willing to trust to prove it. And as far as I know, you should have our Yang family's jade pendant that can lead to the underworld.
Yes, there is. I nodded. This is not a secret. Many people know it.
If you have it, it will be easier. Find a time and find your aunt with the jade pendant to ask her whether it is true or not. You should not doubt what she says.
Looking at his extremely confident look, although I felt that this matter was too unrealistic, I also felt that maybe it was reliable?
Could it be that he is really my cousin?
No matter what, the truth must be verified by facts. I took out the jade pendant from my arms, looked at him, and said: Are you sure?
Of course. He came over and put his hand on my shoulder, which made me subconsciously take a step back. This cousin who suddenly appeared from nowhere laughed and said: Don't be so nervous, I just want to go with you. Since we have to distinguish the true from the false, it is natural that both of us must be there at the same time to be credible.
I nodded, then looked at the old Taoist who was standing quietly next to me. After seeing him nod slightly, I put the jade pendant on my forehead and quickly extended my vision.
Following the guidance of my heart, I soon found my mother.
She didn't know where she was. There were shouts and screams all around her, and it seemed chaotic. And it was pitch black all around her, and she couldn't see anything. She just stood quietly in the chaos, without saying a word or moving.
I looked at her, feeling a little excited, but remembering the main purpose of my visit, I quickly calmed down and shouted: Mom...
For most people, it is very easy to shout out this word, but for me, it feels awkward.
She didn't look up at me, but stood sideways facing me and said softly: What are you doing?
I was feeling a little emotional and a little nervous, and said: Someone said he is my cousin, and I want to ask if it is true?
You found him so quickly, it seems that your uncle has trained you well. Mother spoke softly, but it didn't sound like she was talking to me. Was she talking to my cousin?
I didn't hear my cousin's voice, I only heard my mother nod and say after a while: "Then you can stay with him for a while, but you are not allowed to take him back to that home. You all go back, I still have...
At this moment, the darkness around her was suddenly torn apart, and an arm reached out.
The mother shouted: Go!
The voice was somewhat panicked and hurried, and my forehead suddenly felt hot, as if a piece of flesh had been torn off from it. My vision was instantly retracted, and it hit my brain like a huge meteorite. I felt dizzy and my legs went weak and I was about to fall to the ground.
Then, someone held my arm and I heard someone say: "Master, please calm down. I'm just worried that he might get hurt. Something bad happened to my aunt."
What! I was shocked, my mind trembled, and I quickly held him and asked: What's going on?
When I opened my eyes, I saw my cousin supporting me with a frown, while the old Taoist drew an empty talisman with one hand, as if he was going to attack me.
What happened? I asked again: What happened to my mother? What happened?
You should have seen that my aunt was attacked, my cousin said.
Attack... Oh, right, the last thing I saw was an arm tearing through the darkness. The arm was delicate, like a woman's. Whose was it? Why did it attack my mother?
What my aunt did caused dissatisfaction among many people, and Jiuqiu had already stood on the opposite side. Now, there some more strange people. My cousin had a sad look on his face and said: I wanted to persuade my family to help, but they were unwilling to do so, saying that what my aunt did made them too embarrassed. It was only to preserve your lineage that I was asked to find out about your situation to prevent any accidents.
Strange people? Thinking about the scene of my mother being besieged again, my mind was suddenly in a mess.
Are you okay? The little beauty came from behind and touched me with her arm. Jiao Ye raised her head and hissed at my cousin twice, indicating that she didn't like it.
My cousin let me go helplessly and raised his hands: I have no ill intentions, and I believe Tianyou should also understand whether what I said is true or not.
I sighed and waved my hands: What he said is true, he is indeed my cousin.
How come I have never heard of it? The little beauty asked.
I just found out today that grandpa isn’t a single person, he’s just… uh, I can’t really explain it.
Let me explain it in detail. My cousin thought about it, and then said: The story of the second grandfather leaving home started more than 80 years ago. At that time, my great grandfather calculated that there would be a great disaster in the family, and if we were not careful, the family might be cut off. My grandfather was already a child at that time, and he inherited the Eight Ropes, so he naturally could not leave home. The second grandfather was just born and was still in his cradle, but in order to keep the incense going, my great grandfather could only ask someone to take the second grandfather to an unknown village far away. Even the family treasure, the jade pendant that connects to the underworld, was left to him.
Because it was difficult to get rid of that catastrophe, we have never been in touch for decades. I guess even if my second grandfather died, he didn't know that he had a brother. And a few years ago, my aunt had an accident, it can't be said to be an accident, maybe she felt something in her heart, so she found us. Since then, our two families have established contact again. It's just that what she wants to do is more... You know, there are some things that you can't know, let alone let you participate. Maybe it's to protect you, so my aunt didn't tell you about the eight ropes. And we, only now, after pushing the catastrophe away, dare to come to you.
I looked at the old Taoist priest, and after thinking for a while, he said: I don’t know the details, but the Five Elements and the Eight Ropes were closely related a hundred years ago, and then for some reason they gradually lost connection.
Although the old Taoist didn't make his words clear, his meaning was clear, that is, what my cousin said was indeed reasonable. Perhaps it was because the Basuo family suffered a disaster and had no time to take care of other things that they lost contact with the Five Elements.
What kind of disaster was it? I asked.
This is rather complicated to explain, and the sky has one eye and one pair of ears, so you’d better not listen to me .
I said "oh", feeling a little disappointed, but then I thought about my mother and couldn't help sighing.
My cousin seemed to understand my concerns and said: Although you have made great progress in your cultivation, there are too many people in the world who can easily defeat you. If you act rashly, you will only cause trouble and increase casualties. With my aunt's attainments in Taoism, it shouldn't be easy for her to get into trouble. If you really want to help her, practice more and make yourself grow up as soon as possible.
It's easy to say. I sighed, rubbed my forehead which was still a little hot, and then looked at my cousin, and asked awkwardly: Cousin... uh, your name is...
My name has a single character and a secondary character. My grandfather said that a great catastrophe was coming, so he simply removed the generation number to reduce the connection with the family. Therefore, my name does not have the family generation number.
Yang Fu... I repeated it twice, hesitated for a moment, and still asked: You came here just to see how I am?
Yes, that's right. Cousin Yang Fu nodded, he hesitated, then looked at the old Taoist, then at the little beauty, hesitating to speak.
It’s okay, just talk, they are not outsiders. I said.
Yang Fu nodded, and then whispered: When Grandpa used Taoism to find your location, he accidentally calculated that something big might happen nearby. And it will eventually involve Aunt, so you have to be prepared. At least before that happens, improve yourself as much as possible.
Big news? Involving my mother? I was a little surprised. What could possibly happen around here?
That’s right!
Could it be... I couldn't help but look at the old Taoist, remembering that a few days ago he pointed at the picture and said that the location where Jiuqiu put down the imperial platform was in Zhonghuang Mountain, less than 200 miles to the east.
