Seven character cards for opening rewards

Chapter 588 Preparation
The last two places auctioned by the Wu family were still bought by the Long family, but the price was not low, and it cost a total of [-] fine gold coins.

That night.

According to the traditional custom, the party who sells the quota of ghosts and gods will invite the stewards of the other three families to the house as guests. When Ning Lang heard Wu Wen mention this on the way back, he directly confessed to him that there is no need to call someone to call him at night. Now that Wu Wen has told Ning Lang the secret buried in his heart, he will naturally obey Ning Lang's words now.

After the banquet.

Patriarch Wu Jun returned to the room and called Wu Wen over.

"Where did you go on such an important day?" In the room, Wu Jun stood in front of the window and asked in a low voice.

Wu Wen nodded and said: "I went to Jinghu Lake with that senior."

"He agreed?"

"Yes."

Wu Jun's fingers trembled, and after a while he asked again: "Did he agree to protect you?"

"It's a promise."

"Is it?"

"He said that he would keep me safe when he encountered a danger that he could solve, but he would not risk his life to save me when he encountered a trouble that he could not solve."

Wu Jun nodded and said: "If he doesn't say that, then his words will not be credible."

"The child thinks so too."

Quiet for a while.

Wu Jun turned around and said: "During the auction tonight, the Ye family revealed a piece of news to me... The Bai family only reserved one quota, and the other four quotas were all sold to the Long family. .”

Wu Wen narrowed his eyes and said: "So, this time, the Long family has prepared a total of 11 people to enter the Ghost Tomb?"

"Ah."

Wu Jun nodded and said: "Long Zhan is about the same age as you, but he has also broken through to the realm of transforming gods. His talent is evident. The Patriarch of the Long Family, Long Li, will definitely take ten powerful guest officials of the Long Family to escort him this time, so you enter After the ghost tomb, in addition to being careful of the dangers of the ghost tomb itself, you must also be careful of the people of the Long family, they are numerous and powerful, and if they want to kill, people outside will not know."

But Wu Wen said: "Even if there are eleven of them, it shouldn't be a big deal to that senior, right?"

Wu Jun said: "His strength should be higher than mine, but no one knows the specific strength. As far as I know, apart from Long Li, the Long Family has always hidden a cultivator of the Heavenly Venerable Realm. If he also goes to If not, it’s hard to say.”

Wu Wen thought for a while, then shook his head and said, "I think father still underestimates that senior. His strength may be much higher than what father imagined."

"Why do you think so?"

"Such a person appeared out of nowhere, wouldn't my father wonder where he came from?"

Wu Jun was stunned for a moment, and after a while, he and Wu Wen said in unison: "Outside the territory."

Wu Wen nodded and said: "There are monks like us outside the territory. It's not just a rumor. It's not a secret that there are many remnant souls in the ghost tomb, and there are half-step immortal remnant souls in it, but I read ancient books. I can't find anyone in the Nether Realm who has broken through half a step of immortality, so where did they come from?"

"It can only be outside the territory." Wu Wen asked and answered himself.

Wu Jun did not deny that he actually had this conjecture a long time ago, but it was not confirmed.

"No matter what, you should be careful. You have to remember that you are the only son of Daddy, and Long Li has nine sons in the Long family."

The implication is that Long Zhan can die, but you cannot die.

"Father, don't worry, I will be careful."

Wu Jun nodded and said: "Then you go to prepare, our Wu family still has a place, who you want to take, you can decide for yourself."

"Yes."

Wu Wen walked away.

After the auction ended, the members of the four major families went back to their respective homes and made final preparations.

The fact that the Wu family is going to send Wu Wen to the ghost and god tomb has not yet spread. Everyone thought that this year they just sent three guests to try their luck. So everything in the Wu family is as usual, everyone is busy with their own affairs, and everything seems to be in order. There was one person who was particularly unhappy, and that was Wu Rong, who was banned by Wu Jun.

How could she stay at home with her temperament? Once the auction was over, she wanted to go out several times, but Wu Jun had already greeted the guard at the gate. No matter how domineering Wu Rong was in the Wu family, she had no more power than Wu Jun. , so every time the guard stopped at the gate.

This morning, she wanted to sneak out, but she was discovered by two guards, who stopped her directly in the air: "Miss, the owner of the house has ordered that you will not be allowed to go out for the next month, I hope you don't make it difficult us."

"Just pretend you didn't see it. I'll be back in a while. My father won't know I'm out."

The two guards said bitterly: "This... Miss, we will not obey."

"If you don't get out of the way, don't blame me for beating you."

"Miss, if we let you go, the Patriarch won't let us go either."

Another guard quickly echoed, "Yes, Miss, please don't make things difficult for us."

Wu Rong didn't want to waste words with them, so she clenched her fists tightly, but at this moment, a figure came from below, waved her hands and said, "Go down."

"Yes, second son."

Seeing Wu Wen approaching, the two guards also breathed a sigh of relief.

Wu Rong caught a glimpse of Wu Wen approaching, and said in a strange voice, "Oh, why don't you flatter that person, what are you doing in front of me? You want to stop me too?"

Wu Wen didn't care about his half-sister's words at all, he said: "Although my father gave you a foot restraint order, it only took a month, and it will pass after a little patience. Why do you have to make troubles?" They are servants."

"You said lightly, don't go out for a month, come and try?"

"For the longest time, I didn't leave the house once for three whole years."

Wu Rong was speechless for a moment.

Wu Wen said again: "Father did this for your own good. You should also think about your father. He has done enough for you over the years. This time it is the senior who has a good temper, so replace him with someone with a bad temper. Can you still return home alive?"

Wu Rong immediately changed his face and said, "Are you cursing me to death?"

"Forget it, if you still don't listen, just pretend I didn't say it, but I want to remind you that on the night of the auction, Bai Sheng, the younger brother of the Patriarch of the Bai family, talked to his father about you, and what I heard was different. A lot, but if I'm not mistaken, I should be talking about your marriage. There are three brothers in the Bai family, only Bai Zhizhong has no Taoist partner. I believe you have heard about what kind of guy he is. Can it be as unrestrained as it is now?"

Wu Rong was stunned for a while, but after a while, she said indifferently: "I don't believe that my father will let me marry that bastard Bai Zhizhong."

"It was impossible before, but..."

"But what."

Wu Wen said softly: "However, my father has already promised me to go to the ghost tomb. If I die in the ghost tomb, my father will probably choose to marry the Bai family in order to keep the status of the Wu family. I believe you Not so stupid as to not even think about it."

Say it.

Wu Wen fell back into the courtyard again.

Wu Wen's words just now kept echoing in his ears, like thunderbolts hitting his heart directly.

Wu Rong was messed up in mid-air by herself, and she didn't come back to her senses for a long time.
