Chapter 169 Patriarch
When Fan Jiannan and the grandparents of the Wu family parted, the smiling girl in white stuffed Feng Yuan with two things, saying it was a souvenir.

One thing was the drum that the girl used to beat in her hand, and the other thing startled Feng Yuan. It was a very hideous and terrifying wooden mask.After the grandparent and grandson left, Feng Yuan couldn't help asking Fan Jiannan, "What is this?"

"These are Nuo masks and Nuo drums, which should be related to some witchcraft rituals." Fan Jiannan looked at them and said, "She really treats you as a tourist. You can hang them on the wall when you go back, and the town house will drive away evil spirits. Haha, I see, You are not a grandmaster, so you can't meet the head of the Wu family. She feels that she owes you something, so she gave you these two things as compensation."

Feng Yuan shook his head and said helplessly, "The people of the Wu family are really strange. Even a little girl seems mysterious, but her drums are so beautiful."

Fan Jiannan looked down the mountain and said, "Go back, we should inform Long Bold of the news. I don't think it will be long before I see the head of the Wu family."

His premonition was very accurate. Two days later, Wu Chouchou came to them and took them to meet someone.

Wu Chouchou took them to a villa outside the town.This is a big villa, the blue tiles are shining like emeralds in the setting sun, and the long white stone steps are as beautiful as white jade, passing through the high walls.They quietly stepped across the soft grass and disappeared into the depths of the flower forest, walked through the colorful garden, and walked to the back.Under the cherry trees in the garden, there are mandarin ducks floating in the pool.This place looks very luxurious.

The Wu family is a strange family. The wealth accumulated by the witches of the past generations is enough to make them luxurious like rich people.But they still do all kinds of hard work.

There is an intoxicating fragrance in the wind, as if someone is playing a flute in the distance, and the world is full of peace and tranquility.The head of the Wu family stood on the stone steps in front of the door, watching Fan Jiannan quietly.And this person is wearing the same exorcism mask on his face.No matter what kind of mask it was, it was always a pleasure for the real master of the Wu family to come out to greet them in person.

The willow mask with the dark side is hideous, and the wide and pitch-black cloak, but the voice of this patriarch is surprisingly gentle and sweet, even indistinguishable between men and women, "Hi, I am the patriarch of the Wu family, Wu Changqing. I will see you in this way. But it will always be troublesome to show people with my true colors. Apart from being the head of the Wu family, after all, I still have a normal life, please forgive me." He gestured very gracefully, "Please."

"Normal life?" Fan Jiannan frowned slightly.

"Yes. I have a job, a wife and children. I like football and play mahjong. This is a normal life, I think you should understand." Wu Changqing said with a smile. "The modern way of life made the Wushu people make a choice. The Wushu practitioners are the same. We strive to find a balance between modern life and tradition. Fortunately, there are not too many contradictions between the two. So I still I can buy vegetables and cook for my wife and children, and I can chat with you as the patriarch here in the afternoon."

Fan Jiannan smiled, he suddenly felt that the mask on his face was not important.If a person wants to open up and speak freely, masks can help.In any case, this masked head of the Wu family is more real than Lin Ruogu and others.

Wu Changqing didn't ask any more questions, just turned sideways and said, "Please, please come in."

Long Boldly walked in front, Fan Jiannan followed behind, then stopped suddenly, stared at Qiu Shuiqing, and said, "The patriarch didn't even ask why we came here?"

Wu Changqing shook his head. ——Since you are the masters of Wushu people, you are friends of the Wu family, so I don't need to ask, since you don't need to ask, you don't need to open your mouth.

He has never been a talkative person.

After Long Boldly entered the room and sat down, he refused to shut up, and said, "Even if the patriarch doesn't ask, I still want to talk."

If he insisted on speaking, Wu Changqing would listen.

Long boldly said, "We came here to find someone, but the reason for looking for someone was to seek medical treatment. I wonder if the patriarch understands that strange disease?"

Wu Changqing finally spoke, "What is the disease?"

Long boldly said: "I don't know. The patient's various functions are completely normal, but he is unconscious. I checked carefully, not only the heart rate and pulse are completely normal, but also the five qi in the body are very peaceful, just like pure sleep. But I know it's not a deep sleep. As far as I know, unless it's witchcraft, it's hard to explain."

Wu Changqing suddenly turned to stare at him, and said, "So you think I owe you an explanation? I can tell you one thing, the people of the Wu family will never abuse witchcraft. Because of witchcraft, the people of the Wu family have suffered too much." .And for nearly a hundred years, generations of witches have lived peacefully. We will never give up this peaceful way of life for any reason. Using witchcraft on ordinary people means breaking this peace."

Fan Jiannan frowned and said, "It is impossible for any ancient family to maintain unity of opinion forever. Can the patriarch guarantee that your opinion represents the entire Wu family?"

Wu Changqing waved his hand slightly, and said sarcastically, "I understand what you mean, but people from our Wu family are not Wushu people. We speak with the same voice, my voice."

Fan Jiannan knew that he was metaphorizing the internal struggle of the Wushu people, so he had to smile wryly, "Then let's talk in another way. Can the patriarch guess anything about the symptoms that Dr. Long just mentioned?"

Wu Changqing was silent for a while and said, "Yes. There is a very primitive witchcraft, combined with some kind of drug guidance, that can cause this symptom. This kind of magic is very vividly called Duohun, but there are very few people with this kind of magic. use."

"Oh, there is such a witchcraft, but why are so few people using it?" Long boldly asked in surprise.

Wu Changqing said indifferently, "If you want to harm someone, the Wu family has many secret techniques, and there are also Gu techniques that can make people die unconsciously. No one will use the technique of seizing souls, because this technique is very special and needs to be used. Drugs are also very rare. There are not many people who have mastered this kind of witchcraft, and the only effect of this kind of witchcraft is to make people unconscious, but it can't cause real harm."

"That's right. I checked carefully. All the functions of the patient's body are completely normal. There is no damage to the surface, internal organs, or even the brain. This is what makes this patient so strange." Long boldly frowned.

"If you want to harm someone, just a random witchcraft can cause serious consequences. Why use such a thankless secret method." Wu Changqing sneered.

Fan Jiannan's eyes moved, "Will someone try to blackmail someone with this? I happen to know that this patient's father is a very special person. If he doesn't do harm to anyone, and only uses it as a means of blackmail once, it will make sense. "

"Coercion? That's even easier. You can use poison, voodoo, or even spells to achieve your goal. It just so happens that these are what our Wu family is good at." Wu Changqing shook his head and said, "The magic of seizing soul is more powerful. It is complicated, not only requires special drugs, but also requires the cooperation of the subject. In order to enter a state similar to Western hypnosis. The subject is not a fool, and will obediently cooperate with the wizard to perform the spell. Therefore, using this technique to harm people , is impossible."

"Need the cooperation of the subject?" Long Boldly said dumbfounded.

"That's right, and to reach the level you mentioned, this subject will never be an ordinary person. He should also be a performer." Wu Changqing asserted, "A performer's control over the mind is far superior to that of ordinary people. So we must To achieve the deep sleep state you mentioned, this person must be a magician."

Long boldly sighed, "Let me explain one thing first. We are not here to ask for responsibility, but to ask for help. Even if this person was victimized by witchcraft, I believe that this matter has nothing to do with the Wu family. So I don't I care about how this person is sick, I only care about how to treat it. My original intention is to ask the patriarch for the treatment method."

Wu Changqing sat there, his tone still gentle and calm, "Ten witch secrets? Do you think I will hand them over to you?"

Fan Jiannan looked at Long Bold and then at Wu Changqing, smiled wryly and sighed, "I guess not."

Long boldly said patiently, "I know that these things are related to the secret arts of the witch family, and you will definitely not give them to me. But it is not impossible, or you can find a witch family who is good at this kind of secret art and let him follow Let's save people together. In this way, we can save people and keep witchcraft from spreading. Isn't that great?"

Wu Changqing stood up, the exorcism mask on his black robe looked very strange. "Your suggestion is indeed very good, but I'm afraid you will be disappointed. Not only will I not be able to give you ten witches and secrets, I will also not let any child of the Wu family go with you."

Long Bold lowered his face and said, "It's just to save people. Since ancient times, the family of witch doctors, you witchcraft people don't have to do such a great job, right?" Fan Jiannan also looked at Wu Changqing with some puzzlement.

Wu Changqing said indifferently, "It's not that I've done a great job, but that I can't do anything."

"Powerless?" Fan Jiannan frowned slightly, "Could it be that you, the head of the Wu family, have lost your influence over the clan?"

Wu Changqing shook his head, "That's not what I mean, I mean the ten-witch secret technique, and no one in the current Wu family has mastered this kind of secret technique."

Long boldly objected immediately, "Impossible, at least I know Wu Huaisha."

Fan Jiannan patted Long boldly on the shoulder suddenly, and said with a wry smile, "Maybe what he said is not wrong, have you forgotten that Wu Huaisha has been missing for more than ten years. And even if he is still alive, he is no longer a member of the Wu family." because he has left the family."

Long boldly changed his face and said, "You mean that with the disappearance of Wu Huaisha, the ten witch secrets of the Wu family have been lost."

Wu Changqing was silent, no one knew the expression on his face behind the mask.But his attitude was already tacit.
