Chapter 194 Wei Yan is sad, Wei Xiuwen’s choice (please subscribe)
"Ya'er, while Senior Wei goes to look for Shang Ming, you and I should leave quickly. Don't wait here for too long." Seeing that Wei Tu had left and was nowhere to be found, Tao Jie immediately said to his sister "Tao Ya".
Whether it is Shang Ming or Wei Tu, in his eyes, they are both untrustworthy outsiders.
Now, Wei Tu is leaving.
It was a good time for them to escape.
"Second brother, we can't escape now." Tao Ya heard Tao Jie's slightly childish words and smiled bitterly: "Second brother, do you really think that Senior Wei is a good person and didn't leave any tracking methods on us? Just leave rashly?”
“I noticed it just now. When Senior Wei left, he went straight in one direction. This means that Senior Wei already knew about Shang Ming’s whereabouts..."
“Even when Shang Ming abandoned us and left, Senior Wei had already reached a cooperation with Shang Ming. If I hadn’t told the truth just now and persuaded Senior Wei.”
“Senior Wei left directly…”
“I’m afraid we will have to face Shang Ming directly.”
Tao Ya analyzed it carefully.
When Tao Jie was talking to Wei Tu, she roughly judged Wei Tu's character through a few words in Wei Tu's speech - a shrewd person who was not easy to get along with.
Therefore, when Tao Jie lied and Wei Tu did not take any punitive measures, she immediately sensed the crisis.
She guessed it: it wasn't that Wei Tu didn't punish the two of them, but that Wei Tu didn't want them to "dirty his hands". Throw them directly to Shang Ming. It would be more appropriate for Shang Ming, the enemy, to concoct the two of them.
So, when Wei Tu was about to leave, she quickly told the truth and tried to persuade Wei Tu to stay.
—Wei Tu doesn’t want to get his hands dirty, which means that Wei Tu values his own identity more.
Monks who value status are most likely not tribulation cultivators, and they are better suited to negotiate with them.
"Ya'er, what you have thought of, my second brother has also thought of. It's just that you know people, know faces, but don't know hearts." Tao Jie shook his head and said, "What if Senior Wei and Shang Ming have the same idea, how will you deal with me?" ?”
"Otherwise, you should leave first and go to Hanshan to report the news. I will stay where I am and wait for Senior Wei to come."
Tao Jie proposed a feasible strategy.
"Second brother, you should leave first. As a woman, I can't bear much suffering in Senior Wei's place." After hearing Tao Jie's words, Tao Ya's mind was stirred and she had the intention of leaving. She just thought about her family ties, so she humbly allowed this escape. Chance.
“Ya’er, you go first!”
Tao Jie frowned and scolded sternly.
However, just when the Tao brothers and sisters were humble, Wei Tu, who had left a quarter of an hour ago, turned back.
Tao Jie and Tao Ya were dumbfounded when they saw this scene. They looked at each other and no longer dared to escape.
Just because, at this moment, Wei Tu's waist was hung with a storage bag stained with Shang Ming's blood.
And Wei Tu still looked relaxed.
It seems that killing Shang Ming, a fellow monk, took no effort.
"A foundation-building monk who can come back from the front line of the battlefield should not be underestimated. He is not a kind person." Tao Jie was secretly shocked.
With the combat power Wei Tu has shown at this moment, the Tao family of Hanshan, unless the Jin Dan Patriarch personally comes forward, no one else can do anything to Wei Tu.
This also means that he has fewer bargaining chips to negotiate with Wei Tu.
“Wei has discussed it with fellow Shang Taoists and confirmed that what they said is true.”
“Two fellow Taoists, you can go.”
Wei Tu raised his hand and waved, and the eagle that was hovering in the air cawed several times and landed on Wei Tu's shoulders from high altitude. Its slightly scarlet eagle eyes looked down at the Tao Jie brothers and sisters.
The majestic demonic energy almost condensed into substance, overwhelming the Tao Jie brothers and sisters.
With less than half a breath, Tao Jie, who had been seriously injured before, was sweating profusely and his face turned pale.
Tao Ya on the side was also soaked in cold sweat, revealing her convex jade body.
When Wei Tu saw this scene, there was a trace of satisfaction in his eyes. He flicked his sleeves and robes to dissipate the evil spirit of the cracking sky sculpture. He knocked on the head of the cracking sky sculpture and casually reprimanded: "You evil beast, how could you do this? rude."
Just now, the colorful phantom moth who stayed at the same place had already passed on to him the information about the conversation between Tao Jie and his sister after he left.
Hence, Wei Tu took advantage of the cracked hollow sculpture to punish the Tao Jie brothers and sisters.
—He wears his true appearance, so he should not be "rude and rude" and must pay attention to his identity.
If you were acting in disguise, you wouldn't be so polite.
“Thank you for your help, senior.” Tao Jie secretly complained, but on the surface, he had to express his gratitude to Wei Tu.
“Thank you for your help, senior.” Tao Ya agreed while busy drying her clothes with magic power.
“Two fellow Taoists, you can go.”
Weitu put the cracked hollow sculpture back into the spirit beast bag, glanced at Tao Jie and his sister, and gave a reminder.
“This junior is weak in strength, so I am willing to follow Senior Wei for the time being, and I hope Senior Wei will not take offense.”
Tao Jie said very wisely.
In front of Shang Ming, their brother and sister still had a glimmer of hope of escape.
But in front of Wei Tu, it was almost a dead end.
Even if Wei Tu doesn't take action, it will be difficult for them to deal with a mid-level second-level peak cracking sky eagle alone.
…
Five days later.
Wei Tu brought his brother and sister Tao Jie to Cuiping Valley.
After a brief chat with the Mei family cultivators, Wei Tu went to the depths of Cuiping Valley to meet the Wei Yan siblings who were hiding in the dark.
When they met again after ten years of separation, the Wei Yan siblings could not conceal their excitement. The two of them hugged Wei Tu, their biological father, tightly, one arm at a time, and cried bitterly for a while.
Ten years ago, the time of separation.
They thought that parting was their chance to see Wei Tu for the last time.
From then on, life and death were separated forever, and it was difficult to see each other again.
"Dad is in Cicada Cliff and is in danger. How can my daughter go and bother him over such a trivial matter?"
After crying bitterly, Wei Yan explained to Wei Tu why she did not mention the Mei family's move from Xiayaling in her letter.
The grace of procreation, the grace of teaching, the grace of immortal guidance.
Their siblings owe Wei Tu their father a debt of gratitude that they will never be able to repay in their lifetime. How could it be that... because of some "private matter", Wei Tu was distracted on the battlefield.
Hearing this, Wei Tu nodded, feeling very relieved.
Emotions are mutual.
If the Wei Yan siblings only know how to take things and don't consider him, no matter how much time passes, he will become tired of the family relationship between father and son, no matter how much he is his biological father.
The father and son chatted for a while.
Wei Tu talked about some of his experiences during the years of guarding Cicada Cliff, as well as his apprenticeship with Che Zhenjun and joining the Sanxian Alliance.
Later, Wei Tu mentioned brother and sister Tao Jie.
“The current situation in Zheng State is dangerous. Although the Righteous Alliance has the upper hand now, this does not mean that the power of the Demonic Path has weakened. In recent years, the intensity of the Demonic Path’s invasion of the Zheng State has weakened. The main reason is that it has digested the gains from the annexation of Jingguo.”
"My father plans to make a deal with the Tao family in Hanshan in exchange for a place to smuggle to Kang State..."
Wei Tu said slowly with a solemn look on his face.
“What does dad mean?” Wei Yan guessed Wei Tu’s thoughts, but was not sure.
“Just as you thought.”
Wei Tu nodded slightly and said: "I joined the Sanxian Alliance not long ago, and the guarding mission has just ended... Nowadays, it is not suitable to sneak to Kang State, and you two brothers and sisters have been hiding in Cuiping Valley and the Mei family are not the same. A good thing…”
Without the second-level spiritual land of "Xiaya Ridge", the Wei Yan siblings' current cultivation speed is as fast as a turtle crawling.
Basically, it’s a waste of life. certainly.
Wei Tu can help the Mei family regain their clan land.
It's just that Wei Tu is an outsider, so helping the Mei family will inevitably be unfair.
Secondly, even if Wei Tu helps.
But after Wei Tu leaves the Mei family, the Mei family without the "foundation-building ancestor" will be remembered sooner or later.
Wei Tu can help for a while, but not forever.
“It’s just that there will inevitably be dangers in smuggling to Kang State. The two of you must think clearly.”
"Besides, Xiuwen..." Wei Tu looked at Wei Xiuwen, considered his words for a while, and said in a deep voice: "You are now the only foundation-building master of the Mei family. You must think clearly that you have to break up with the Mei family. , or... stay at Mei’s house.”
Smuggled to Kang State, everything is unpredictable.
Let sister and brother Wei Yan leave first.
On the one hand, he can have no worries in Zheng.
The two of them, Wei Yan and his brother, can also help him set up an outpost and lay down a foundation in Kang.
To prevent him from going to Kang State, the road ahead is uncertain and the place he is unfamiliar with is unknown.
Thirdly, if the Wei Yan siblings succeed in sneaking into Kang State, they will have more security when they go to Kang State in the future.
With the descendants of Jiji around, the Hanshan Tao family and "Nie Wenjing" would inevitably have to be more scrupulous if they wanted to take advantage of others.
After all, if the Foundation Establishment monks are determined to take revenge, even the Jindan family will not be able to bear it.
The voice fell.
Neither Wei Yan nor Wei Xiuwen answered immediately.
"Dad, I'm leaving now." Wei Xiuwen saw that Wei Yan had something to ask Wei Tu, and at this moment he also wanted to think about his future, so he bowed his hands and withdrew.
Shaoqing.
In the living room of the Dongfu, only Wei Tu and Wei Yan, father and daughter, were left.
"Dad, I have asked you several times just now... about Brother Fu Linfu, but you have avoided talking about it. Is there another reason for this?" Wei Yan asked with a slightly trembling voice.
More than ten years ago, Fu Lin sent her a second letter, saying that he would see her again within three years, or he would send her a third letter.
But more than ten years have passed.
To this day, there is still no news from Fu Lin.
Wei Yan is worried that... Fu Lin has died in the demonic realm.
"Yan'er, this matter..." Wei Tu sighed softly when he heard this. He walked to Wei Yan and tucked a strand of hair from Wei Yan's forehead behind her ear.
“When my father ambushed the demon cultivator, I accidentally learned the news about Fu Lin from a demon cultivator.”
“Afterwards, it was verified by many parties.”
“The Fu Lin you knew is dead.”
Wei Tu raised his head, looked into the distance, and said in a solemn voice.
People will change.
Fu Lin and Wei Yan are different. Although they are childhood sweethearts, Fu Lin's experience is more bumpy. After working hard in the demon world for so long, his emotional changes will be more abundant than those of Wei Yan... As time goes by, new feelings well up in Fu Lin's heart. The emotions will gradually overwhelm the old emotions from a hundred years ago.
This old emotion will slowly evolve into a memory that is dusty in the heart. A beautiful memory, but one worth shelving.
Wei Yan cried after hearing this.
After she called "Dad", she buried her head deeply in Wei Tu's chest and sobbed gently for several hours without saying a word.
Until Wei Tu’s wet clothes turned cold.
Wei Yan just raised her head from Wei Tu's arms. Her red eyes no longer shed tears, but she had a look of sadness on her face.
“Dad, my daughter is fine.”
“My daughter is willing to go to Kang State.”
Wei Yan is decisive.
Previously, when Wei Tu asked questions, she did not reply immediately because she was worried about Fu Lin's life and death, worried that Fu Lin's life would be in danger in the demon world.
Now, the old feelings are gone.
She had no one in Zheng who cared about her except Wei Tu and Wei Xiuwen.
See the decisive look on Wei Yan's face.
Wei Tu secretly appreciated that love and hate are never a shortcoming of a monk. As long as he can distinguish the priorities between practice and emotion, he is a qualified monk.
"Yan'er, Fu Lin didn't betray you. It's just that the relationship between you is not suitable, and you don't need to hate him for this." After Wei Yan calmed down, Wei Tu explained.
Back then, Fu Lin had expressed his feelings to Wei Yan, but because of the Xinghua incident, Wei Yan had the idea of never marrying, so she declined Fu Lin.
From this point of view alone.
It is reasonable for Fu Lin to go to Fairy Leng of Hehuan Sect.
Although privately, good and evil monks are not at odds with each other, but compared to Wei Yan, a righteous monk, it is obvious that Leng Xianzi, a demonic monk, is more suitable for Fu Lin.
Beauty, talent, potential, etc.,
Leng Xianzi is far better than the mediocre Wei Yan.
"Dad, my daughter understands." Wei Yan said softly, and the sad look on her face faded a little.
After finishing speaking, the father and daughter did not speak again.
Wei Yan moved forward, walked to Wei Tu's side, and sat down next to Wei Tu. She tilted her head slightly to the left, resting her head on Wei Tu's right shoulder, and looked at the quiet room in the cave.
Just like the ordinary father and daughter a hundred years ago.
Emotions between men and women may change, but Wei Tu's biological father's love and care for her has never changed.
…
A few days later.
Wei Xiuwen gave Wei Tu an answer about the illegal immigration.
"More than thirty years ago, when I was building the foundation, I once said that I would like to stay with the Mei family and protect...the Mei family..."
“Today, all the ancestors who established the foundation of the Mei family in Xiaya died on the frontline battlefield. If the child abandons the Mei family and leaves regardless of everything, I am afraid that the child will not be able to feel at ease..."
Wei Xiuwen knelt on the ground and bowed deeply to Wei Tu who was sitting in front of the hall.
“The child has been brought up by his father!”
“In this life, it is difficult to repay.”
Wei Xiu knelt down and cried.
If possible, of course he would like to sneak to Kang State with his sister Wei Yan, and no longer live this kind of life of hiding here and there.
But unfortunately,
There are a group of Mei family members behind him.
At that time, he was greedy for the wealth of the Mei family, so he used tricks to marry Mei Zhen, and with the help of the resources of the Mei family, he was a big step ahead of the monks in his hometown.
But now, the backlash is also coming.
He is too deeply tied to the Mei family, and it is too difficult to repay all these favors one by one.
Between unfilial piety and unrighteousness.
Wei Xiuwen could only choose "unfilial piety".
Because his father, Wei Tu, could still live a good life in the world of immortality without him, but at this time, the Mei family could not live without him.
