They all say I practice black holes

Chapter 360 The conspiracy decades ago

Li Rui stared at the things in the brazier, feeling a little anxious.

"Why don't these people say a word?"

After being here for so long, he only knew that he was in the past time, but he didn't know exactly when it was, let alone what these people were gathering here for.

Just when he was secretly cursing, someone finally spoke.

"Uncle, what exactly are we doing here?"

The person who asked the question was a middle-aged man with nine braids on his head. Among all the people, he seemed to be the youngest.

The uncle he spoke of was the old man who led the way.

"I called you here to discuss ways to lead the Zheng family to prosperity."

Li Rui didn't see anyone and sat down on the side, thinking: So it's Zheng's old acquaintance, but why did I come to this place?
After hearing this, the others didn't react much. It seemed like it was a long-standing issue.

The man with a lush beard on his chin said: "Nowadays, the Weng family in Longyuan Continent is rising rapidly, and the Lu family is also developing steadily. Our industry has been compressed a lot."

The leading old man said: "That's why change is needed."

"How to change? Uncle, you also know that the only thing that separates us from other families is lack of strength. Yuan Songwu of the Yuan family has already reached the tenth rank half a year ago. With his talent of life star, he can't pass In less than ten years, no one will be able to defeat us under the Three Walls."

"The Weng family doesn't have any peerless strongmen, but all of them have high fate, and they can't compete with them when they are in a group."

Everyone was talking to each other, and what they said was that their fists were not strong enough. No matter how they changed, they could not make the family strong again.

The leading old man listened to their repeated complaints without saying a word, as if he wanted these guys to get angry.

"Okay, everyone, be quiet. Since the elder brother called us here, he must have some ideas. Let's listen first before we speak."

The bearded one stopped everyone, "Brother, tell me, do you have any new ideas?"

The leading old man smiled and said, "Qu Qian still understands me."

Li Rui thought for a while and remembered the name Zheng Quqian.

After the Zheng family was encircled and suppressed in Juyuanzhou, he took the time to learn about the family's past. Zheng Quqian was a person who died in the last war, so he didn't pay much attention to it, but he was somewhat impressed by the name. .

So judging from the relationship between the characters, the leading old man is Zheng Tongming, the former patriarch of the Zheng family. The one with the braided head is a junior, but to be able to appear on this occasion that obviously belongs to the inner circle, he should be Zheng Tongming's nephew. Zheng Yue, the leader of that generation.

Li Rui somewhat admired his memory. He had only heard about it briefly at first, but now he could remember it.

"So this is before the First War?" he thought silently.

At this time, Zheng Yue calmed down a little.

"Uncle, what do you mean, is there any way to improve the strength of our family?"

"That's right." Zheng Tongming nodded.

"How is this possible? Do you want to use those forbidden techniques? Not to mention that you will be targeted by the Ministry of Security, those techniques themselves are not safe." Someone questioned.

Zheng Tongming smiled: "Just watch, you will understand everything later."

After saying that, he took out something from his body.

Li Rui looked closer, but couldn't see clearly. He could only see a dark mass, which seemed to be blocked by some force like the sound outside the door.

Zheng Tongming threw the unknown black object into the scorched earth of the brazier. Immediately afterwards, the thing began to squirm, merged with the scorched earth, and then gradually swelled.

Ka Ka Ka Ka
A strange sound came from the basin, and then the scorched earth "stood" up from the basin.

Everyone around, except Zheng Tongming, became a little wary. After all, it was before the first war, and they had never seen the scorched earth of the Black Territory.

"What is this!"

"Brother, are you sure there's nothing wrong?"

Some people even held weapons in their hands, and even Li Rui could feel the unclean atmosphere in the brazier.

Zheng Tongming still sat cross-legged on the ground with a smile, unmoved at all.

"It's okay, you don't have to worry."

The mass of scorched earth kept rising upwards, and finally became as tall as a person, transforming into a squirming human face.

When Li Rui saw this thing, he couldn't help but think of the fusion giant monster he had seen with Bai Ling in the outer secret realm.

"You, have you figured it out?"

The black-faced voice was calm and seemed to have a hint of a smile, "Do you want power? If you want it, just tell me."

"Uncle, what the hell is this?!" Zheng Yue knew that this must not be a good thing.

Zheng Tongming said: "This is the source of power, can't you feel it?"

Everyone was silent, not daring to make a sound.

In the end, it was Zheng Quqian who said, "Brother, this thing looks a bit dangerous. Do we want to pray for strength from this thing?"

Hearing this, the face transformed into scorched earth didn't say anything, it was still smiling.

Seeing that it didn't respond, Zheng Tongming said, "Think about it carefully. Our next generation will never succeed. Among those younger generations, only Hong Yu's meridians are strong and suitable for cultivation. What about the others? I don't even need to talk about their character."

Everyone was speechless.

"Will the other big families talk about it when they see us in decline? Even if we talk about it, who will support the situation? Qu Qian, Hongyu is your granddaughter. Do you want her to be the leader by herself in the future? Those side branch children, besides sitting and eating, they also know something. What?"

"This" Zheng Quqian shook his head subconsciously.

He felt a lot of pressure just thinking about supporting a family full of playboys by himself.

Zheng Tongming's eyes swept over each person, and then said firmly: "Now the opportunity has come. This gentleman has brought powerful power from other places. With this power, we can rise again."

"But, uncle, what is the price?"

Mr. Zheng felt that the words of the black face were not credible.

But at this time, that face changed its previous silence, and said in an encouraging tone: "The price, ah. That's not called a price. You will become the masters of this world, and I will bring more benefits to this world. A little change."

"Change? You might as well make it clear." Zheng Yue said.

The black face was about to speak when his pupils suddenly stood up and he turned around, as if he had discovered something extraordinary.

Everyone followed its gaze, but saw nothing.

At this time, there was only one person who could know what the black face was looking at, and that was Li Rui.

Because the guy was looking at exactly where he was.
