Chapter 2543 delaying time
The cave where Yelu Changfeng lives is at the highest point. As the patriarch, his cave has nothing special except for its higher location. The decorations inside are exactly the same as those where others live. Please search () to see the most comprehensive! The fastest updated one
When Ye Qing and Yelu Ying came in, two elders were also sitting here. Seeing Ye Qing and Yelu Ying coming, they immediately stood up and welcomed Ye Qing and Yelu Ying in.
There were ten people in the cave, and Yelu Changfeng was among them. As for the other six, they had already had dinner and went out to patrol.
The breakfast was greasy, with mutton and goat milk. Ye Qing was fine, but Yelu Ying was obviously not used to these things and didn't eat much in a meal.
Yelu Ying took a few bites casually, put down the bowl, and suddenly asked, "Grandpa Changfeng, why do you eat such greasy things here early in the morning?"
"Greasy?" Yelu Changfeng looked at the mutton on the table in front of him and said strangely: "Isn't this how you eat? Otherwise, what else can you eat?"
Yelu Ying said: "When you get up in the morning, make some light porridge, etc., which can also nourish the stomach."
"Yinger, you may not know that it is not easy to eat porridge in this desert." The tall elder waved his hand and said, "This place is close to the Mongolian area, and its living habits are somewhat similar to those in the Mongolian area, mainly meat. We raise a lot of livestock ourselves, which is our staple food. As for the porridge or rice noodles you mentioned, these things do not grow in the desert. If we want to eat these things, we must transport them from outside, which is not very convenient. Therefore, on our side, rice and flour are actually rarely eaten, and we only eat some during the holidays. Meat is the staple food."
"So that's it!" Yelu Ying suddenly realized, looked at the meat in the bowl, and couldn't help but sigh, "I've made you suffer over the years!"
Everyone in the Yelu family looked at each other, and Yelu Changfeng waved his hand and said, "We are all used to these things. There is no saying that we will suffer or not. In fact, if you let us use rice and flour as our staple food now, we can't accept it."
Ye Qing sat next to him, and everyone was talking. He did not get involved, but was quietly looking at everyone's expressions. He was still looking for who betrayed the Yelu family. However, he still did not show any information during the whole process.
After breakfast, the two elders of the tall and short distance took a few people out to patrol. Yelu Changfeng took Ye Qing and Yelu Ying around the oasis, and also introduced the environment near the oasis to them.
This oasis covers a large area and is formed around the Aragu Mountain, like a small city. If it weren't for the harsh living environment here and the legend of devils on the Aragu Mountain, I'm afraid there would have been many people living here long ago.
Nowadays, only the Yelu family guarding the tombs live here on this oasis. This is just right. Only they live here, so it is more convenient to keep the tomb. If there are more people living there, it is not so easy to keep the tomb, and no one knows what unexpected situations will happen.
Yelu Changfeng took Ye Qing and Yelu Ying around the places where the tomb guard clan lived, and finally came to the martial arts training ground where the tomb guard clan practiced.
It is said that it is a martial arts training ground, but it is actually a flat ground. There are many stone piers around the flat ground, blocking the flat ground. When Ye Qing and Yelu Ying came over, there were six people practicing on the martial arts training ground. They were practicing the martial arts inherited by the Yelu family, but it can be seen that the strength of these six people is very average, which is just stronger than Yelu Ying.
To be honest, judging from the skills of the Yelu family, Yelu Changfeng was able to become a top master, which made Yeqing very curious. The martial arts of the Yelu family were actually very ordinary. Chen Tianjun had personally studied the skills of the Yelu family and concluded that it is basically impossible to cultivate a top master with the skills of the Yelu family. And Yelu Changfeng was able to become a top master, which made people wonder, how did Yelu Changfeng become a top master?
From beginning to end, Ye Qing was a little wary of Yelu Changfeng. Such a top master was able to live in the desert for so long, which was really unbelievable. So, Ye Qing was wondering whether Yelu Changfeng became the top master because he betrayed the Yelu family and obtained other skills?
Although he doubted Yelu Changfeng in his heart, Ye Qing did not show any of it, but was secretly alert in his heart. Although practicing the second level of innate skills last night, the meridians in his body gradually recovered and his strength also recovered a little. However, Ye Qing's current situation is still quite different from that of the top masters. If he angers the traitor at this time, it would be obviously unwise to do it.
After taking Yelu Ying around the martial arts training ground, Yelu Changfeng took Yelu Ying to see the surrounding scenery. This situation made Yeqing even more suspicious of Yelu Changfeng. They had been here for so long, and Yelu Changfeng had never taken them to the Yelu family's ancestral tomb. What exactly did he want to do? Didn't he know that Yelu Ying came here to open the Yelu family's ancestral tomb?
The whole morning ended with the viewing, and then Ye Qing and Yelu Ying were taken back for lunch. During lunch, Ye Qing did not see the two elders tall and short. It seemed that they should be patrolling.
During lunch, Ye Qing made a gesture to Yelu Ying quietly. Yelu Ying understood what Ye Qing meant. He asked Yelu Changfeng directly after lunch: "Grandpa Changfeng, we have changed the environment here. When can you take us to the ancestral tomb to worship our ancestors? Tonight is the full moon night. I want to try it to see if we can open the ancestral tomb. Do you think you can arrange it for us?"
Hearing this, a strange color flashed in Yelu Changfeng's eyes, and Ye Qing happened to see it. Ye Qing remained silent, as if he had seen nothing, but he became much more alert to Yelu Changfeng.
Everyone in the room also looked at Yelu Changfeng. When they heard Yelu Ying's words, the people in the tomb guard clan seemed to be a little silent, not knowing what was going on. This situation made Yeqing even more worried. It would be fine if Yelu Changfeng had a strange expression, but everyone else had such expressions. What does this mean? Could it be that all the people in the tomb guard clan betrayed the Yelu family? If that is true, things will be troublesome!
After a moment of silence, the atmosphere in the room solidified to the extreme for a moment. Ye Qing quietly grabbed the chair behind him with his hands. He was ready. If these people did anything extreme, he would throw the chair out immediately and block it first.
"Hahaha..." Suddenly, Yelu Changfeng laughed loudly, breaking the silence of death. He looked at Yelu Ying and said, "I am so happy that you came here this time. I have forgotten this time. If you didn't remind me, I would have delayed the main business. That's right, you finally came here, of course you should go to the ancestral tomb to worship first. Lao Qi, take people to the ancestral tomb to clean up and prepare for the ancestral worship ceremony!"
The seventh son was stunned for a moment, opened his mouth and wanted to speak, but in the end he didn't speak and left with a few people.
Yelu Changfeng walked to Yelu Ying and said, "Yinger, worshiping ancestors is a very complicated matter. According to the family rules, we have to go through some rituals first. You also know that we are royal families. Normally, this ritual takes at least three days. However, we are in a hurry now, and everything is simple. However, some necessary rituals cannot be saved."
"Yinger understands." Yelu Ying nodded quickly. As the eldest daughter of the Yelu family, she was familiar with many rules of the Yelu family. The Yelu family, who once served as a royal family, did have many complicated rules in these things such as worshiping ancestors, and she had no doubt about this.
Ye Qing's thoughts were different from Yelu Ying. Although Yelu Changfeng agreed to let Yelu Ying worship his ancestors just now, he sent the seventh and others out first. Although he was talking about preparing a ceremony to worship his ancestors, their expressions had already betrayed them. The way these people just wanted to speak but stopped made Ye Qing clearly feel that there must be something strange here. Ye Qing couldn't help but wonder, Ye Lu Changfeng was deliberately sending these people out, what tricks were they trying to do?
While Ye Qing was thinking, Yelu Changfeng had already taken Yelu Ying and others out and started those necessary rituals. Ye Qing was not from the Yelu family, so naturally he didn't need to mix these rituals. However, he couldn't go far. There were too few people here. If he left, the Yelu family would definitely be able to show him. Before the people on his side came, Ye Qing really didn't dare to expose the matter, otherwise they would be in trouble. Ye Qing himself was invulnerable to the sword and gun, but Yelu Ying might not be safe.
The ceremony was held on the other side of the martial arts training ground. Ye Qing stood beside him, watching the Yelu family performing this complex ritual, and at the same time, he was quietly observing the situation around him.
After about half an hour, Lao Qi and his men rushed back. They still had a worried expression on their faces, and they didn't know what happened.
Yelu Ying knelt in the middle of the martial arts training ground and was conducting a family ceremony. Yelu Changfeng had quietly walked to Lao Qi and said something to Lao Qi and the others.
Ye Qing stood far away and could only see them talking, but he couldn't hear what they were saying. Ye Qing didn't dare to walk over, so it was too obvious. He took a deep breath, circulated the only power in his body, slowly gathered around the dantian along the meridians that had just appeared last night, and at the same time, he silently used the innate qi to allow the true qi to flow in the direction of the innate qi. At the same time, Ye Qing held his breath and listened carefully to the past.
The innate function makes the six consciousnesses particularly sensitive. Although there are gongs and drums on the martial arts training ground, Ye Qing calmed down and abandoned all distracting thoughts, and could accurately capture the conversation between Yelu Changfeng and Lao Qi and others.
