Chapter 1454
"Who the hell are you?" Li Xixian frowned as he looked at the old man in front of him.

But the old man in front of him didn't answer his question, just looked at him and smiled.

"You took so much effort to get me out of the 7th floor of the council. Could it be for fun? Or, do you like to just look at me and giggle like this?" Li Xixian said coldly.

"Of course not. I just looked at you and felt a little familiar. To some extent, you are very similar to Li Liankun." The old man smiled, "Of course I'm not talking about appearance, but personality. But it's no wonder, you were brought up by him little by little. You inherited his intelligence, but you also inherited his arrogance."

"You know my grandfather?" Li Xixian was slightly taken aback.

"It doesn't need to be so reserved between us. Actually, you know it too. He is not your grandfather, but your grandfather." The old man smiled slightly. "You even sound like him when you speak."

"My life experience is not a secret." Li Xixian said indifferently, "Not only you, but also many people outside our Li family know about it. Do you think I will believe you based on your few words?" Do you know my grandpa?"

"Of course I knew your grandpa. Even when your grandpa was young, I saw him. There is a tree in the yard of your ancestral house in Li's family. I remember it, it seems to be a ginkgo tree. The tree is very old I don’t know if that tree is still there now?” the old man chuckled lightly.

"Who are you? The ancestral house of the Li family never allowed outsiders to approach it. How did you know there was a ginkgo tree inside?" Li Xixian was slightly startled.

"I not only know the ginkgo tree, but also the statues of the Five Immortals enshrined in the ancestral house." The old man said with a smile. "This may be one of the only two statues of the Five Immortals left in China."

The five immortals are actually the five poisons, namely: scorpions, snakes, centipedes, geckos, and toads.However, some Gu art families have always had the habit of worshiping the five poisons, so they are not called the five poisons, but the five immortals.The Li family is a family of witches and Gu, so there is nothing wrong with respecting the Five Immortals.But the way of voodoo has always been somewhat mysterious, and is considered by the art world to be a very vicious art.So we can only worship in secret.

"You know so many things about the Li family, you shouldn't be an ordinary person. Tell me, who are you?" Li Xixian said in a deep voice.He found more and more that the background of the old man in front of him seemed not simple.

"My name is Wu Nanming. The moon and stars are rare, and the crows fly south." The old man said slowly, "My identity is more complicated. It's hard to explain clearly in one or two sentences."

"But I have enough time." Li Xixian looked at him and said.

Wu Nanming smiled, "Actually, you don't need to ask the bottom line like this. You should also be able to see that I have no hostility towards you."

"There are some people in this world who never show hostility on their faces. This kind of people sometimes smile very brightly, but who knows what they are thinking in their hearts? The education I have received since I was a child is to be absolutely careful of those with A person with a smiling face. Because this kind of person usually wants you to relax completely. And if I really relax, then I am probably the one who is unlucky." Li Xixian said lightly.

"I rescued you from the 7th underground floor of the council, is it to harm you?" The old man laughed.

"Fishing usually requires bait. Fishermen usually prepare bait not to feed the fish, but to eat the fish. I usually don't trust the person who gives me sweets for no reason. It's not that I'm suspicious. But It’s because in this world, there has never been a good thing like a pie in the sky.” Li Xixian raised his eyes and looked at Wu Nanming.

"Okay! You guessed it right. I saved you because I wanted you to do something for me." Wu Nanming nodded, "This is not fishing. It's a fair exchange, both for you and for me. benefit."

"I'm not interested, because I already smell conspiracy. I have no other skills. But fortunately, my sense of smell is relatively sensitive." Li Xixian looked at Wu Nanming and said, "So now you can either let me go or put me away." Send it back. I have no objection."

Wu Nanming looked at Li Xixian, the degree of difficulty of this Li Xixian was beyond his expectation.But he wasn't worried.He knew that Li Xixian would definitely consider his suggestion.So he smiled and said, "Actually, you don't have to reject me in such a hurry. At least listen to me about the conditions, there is no loss at all!"

"You can do whatever you want." Li Xixian said lightly.

"Your abilities and talents should not be wasted in the cold basement of the Yishu Council. I remember that not long ago, you were ambitious to defeat the Wu family. Could it be that you gave up so soon? If that's the case If you don't, you disappoint me so much. You disappoint your grandfather Li Liankun even more. He has great hopes for you." Wu Nanming said with a smile.

"This is about our Li family, what does it have to do with you?" Li Xixian sneered.

"It didn't matter at first. But I just happen to have to deal with the Wu family. And I also know that your current ability is not enough to do this. But with my help, the situation is completely different. Maybe, you will It is the first Li family that has truly trampled on the Wu family in hundreds of years." Wu Nanming said with a sigh.

"Sounds very tempting. But what price will I have to pay?" Li Xixian smiled.

"You don't have to pay anything, I just want you to deal with the Wu family with all your strength." Wu Nanming shook his head and said, "That's all."

"That's all? Why are you helping me?" Li Xixian frowned.

Wu Nanming said calmly, "I'm not here to help you, but to deal with the Wu family. It just so happens that you meet my requirements. Since helping you is also beneficial to me. Then, why not do it!"

"To deal with the Wu family, to deal with the Wu family?" Li Xixian laughed loudly, "This is really the funniest reason I have ever heard. The offer is very good. But I still have to refuse. Because I never want to rely on the strength of others, And I don't trust others. I will use my way to deal with the Wu family, not to ask other people for help. You know that I am a very self-respecting person."

"It depends on how you look at it? Sometimes actual interests are much more important than self-esteem. Otherwise, there wouldn't be so many people in this world who would sell their self-esteem for benefits. What do you think?" Wu Nanming said calmly .

"What do you mean? You might as well say it clearly. I don't like going around in circles." Li Xixian said coldly.

"In this case, I will not be polite. Li Xixian, you should know that your position in the Li family is not stable. Although, you are the heir who was written into the genealogy. But from the perspective of blood, your surname is not even Li, Your surname is Wu. You are just a nephew of the Li family, who was adopted by your uncle. From this point of view, there must be many people who are not convinced that you inherit the entire Li family." Wu Nanming said slowly.

"So what?" Li Xixian said coldly.

"Of course it's not great. But I know, and because of this, you've worked so hard to learn Gu skills. So much so that when you were 13 years old, your Gu skills have already surpassed your grandfather. This is why he put The main reason for you to write in the genealogy to locate the heir. This is not surprising. If I have such a talented grandson, I will also feel very honored.

And you know your own shortcomings.So after you're an adult.You have been looking for the strongest Gu technique.He didn't hesitate to imprison himself on the seventh floor, and finally mastered the cultivation of the Golden Silkworm Gu King by following Mrs. Li's study.Because you want to do something big.I want those who doubt you to be completely convinced by you.Do you know why? "

"You know?" Li Xixian said coldly.

"Because you actually have low self-esteem in your heart. No matter how good you are. But you know, everyone in the Li family looks down on you. Your grandfather Li Liankun has no grandchildren, and he is unwilling to hand over the power of the Li family to other branches. That's why, I adopted you to your uncle. I was afraid that others would know your identity. So I kept declaring that you were an illegitimate child. In this way, your inheritance status is no problem. But you will inevitably be underestimated.

This is really a very irrational society, people like to judge a person by his birth, not by his ability and character.What's even more damning is how it seems that this unreasonable prejudice is still taken for granted.This is very painful for your growth. Wu Nanming sighed, "However, who can be without some tragedy?" "

"Have you said enough?" Li Xixian snapped, "I don't need you to analyze my character."

"I didn't analyze your character in particular. I just want you to recognize yourself. I want you to understand. What do you want in your heart? You want to prove yourself. You have lived most of your life. Think about this matter. And the way to prove yourself is to completely defeat the Wu family and win the final victory in the war of witchcraft. You have put in a lot of hard work, why don’t you finish this matter? As long as you nod your head , I will help you. You have seen my ability, you should know that I have the ability to help you." Wu Nanming looked directly at Li Xixian and said.

Li Xixian's chest rose and fell sharply, but he didn't speak.

"Maybe you want to say. You have to rely on your own ability to defeat the Wu family. But have you ever thought about it? When can you rely on your own ability to defeat the Wu family? You know very well that maybe when you are old, You have no chance. The Wu family is too powerful. Without external help, you can't defeat the Wu family by yourself." Wu Nanming sneered. "This is an opportunity. And the only opportunity. Once you miss this opportunity, then you are, forever hopeless."

Li Xixian stared at Wu Nanming intently, as if trying to see his real intention.

But Wu Nanming looked as usual.He looked at Li Xixian and smiled, "It's like the pomegranate tree in your hometown. There is a very sweet pomegranate on the top of the tree. But, if you can't pick it even if you stand on tiptoe, why don't you use it?" Some other tools too!
For example, usually a ladder comes to pick.For another example, find a bamboo pole and beat the pomegranate down.Isn't this all normal behavior?In a sense, I am your ladder, or that bamboo pole.For repelling the use of tools.And watching the pomegranates not being picked, isn't it too stupid? "

"I never said that I was a smart person. But I did say that I was a very stubborn person." Li Xixian said coldly.

"Let me say one more thing, which may change your view on this matter." Wu Nanming sighed, "The Li family is a big family, with more than 300 people living in one village. Do you know that you After being imprisoned in the 7th floor of the Yishu Council, what was the reaction of the rest of the Li family? They were very happy. Especially your two cousins, they were so happy. Not only did they not stand up for you, they even We should be grateful to the Yishu Council."

"Hmph, two shameless villains!" Li Xixian sneered.

"It's true that they are shameless villains. But there is a saying in this world, that is, a villain can achieve success. It doesn't mean that a villain must be a villain who can achieve success. It is said that a villain is usually easier to succeed. Something happened to you, the head of the Li family Of course, it also fell on the head of one of them. There is also a saying that when a villain succeeds, he is rampant. They are even ready to cross your name from the family tree, which seems a bit too much. "Wu Nanming said with a sigh.

"How dare they!?" Li Xixian said angrily.

"They dare to do anything. And they have already done so. As far as you are concerned, don't you want to go back and get back everything you deserve? And to get everything back, all the Li family members must see that you really You have the ability to lead the Li family. You have to do something to make them recognize you and even worship you. To do this. What could be better than defeating your opponent, the Wu family, in the war of witchcraft!" Wu Nanming smiled.

He could see that Li Xixian was really angry.A person with low self-esteem tends to have stronger self-esteem.Human nature is sometimes so easy to grasp.Wu Nanming knew that Li Xixian would definitely consider his suggestion seriously.So he was not in a hurry, just looked at Li Xixian calmly.

"You really don't have any other conditions?" Li Xixian frowned.

"Except for the other party's Wu family, no." Wu Nanming shook his head.

"You have to understand that even if you really help me deal with the Wu family, I will not sacrifice any interests of the Li family." Li Xixian said in a deep voice.

Wu Nanming smiled, "Do you really think that I have any interests in your Li family? In my opinion, the Wu family has no interests for me. I will not threaten you because of this, I will Is the expression clear enough?"

"The reason? Why do you hate the Wu family so much?" Li Xixian turned to Wu Nanming and said, "I must be clear about this."

Wu Nanming shook his head and said, "You still don't understand. I just want to deal with the Wu family, not that I have to hate the Wu family. I don't hate them, so can I not deal with them? Could it be that you eat braised pork, yes?" Because you hate that pig?"

Li Xixian was silent for a long time, nodded and said, "Okay, I've done it!"
