Seed of Longevity
Chapter 22
"Madam."
Liu Ruhua, who was majestic and arrogant just now, was slightly staggered. His body like a meat mountain was withered down quickly like a balloon.
Finally returned to normal.
However, Lei Dao keenly noticed that although his mother''s body was still bloated, it seemed to be a circle smaller and pale. It was not a good thing at first sight.
"How are you, mother?"
Leidao and Leiwei hurried forward to ask.
"I''m fine."
Liu Ruhua waved her hand to show that it was OK.
At this time, a doctor came and began to heal the people.
Lei Heng''s injury is the most serious, but fortunately, his life is OK. He just hurt his muscles and bones. I''m afraid it will be difficult to recover in a few months.
Moreover, after this battle, leijiabao has actually suffered heavy losses.
More importantly, the danger has not been completely lifted, and the ghost hand is not dead! The other party lurks in the dark and looks covetously. No one knows when the ghost hand will appear again?
If there are ghost hands, it will always be a threat, just like a sharp blade hanging overhead.
"Mother, you..."
Lei Dao glanced at his mother and stopped talking.
Liu Ruhua glanced at Lei Dao and others. Naturally she knew what they thought, so she nodded and said, "come in, you all. It''s time to tell you something."
With that, Liu Ruhua helped Lei Heng into the inner room.
Soon, little sister, ray Wei and ray Dao all entered the house.
Lei Heng glanced at Lei Dao and said happily, "I didn''t expect that the third brother could solve the flying rat so soon. If you hadn''t led his men back, I''m afraid the loss of Lei family castle would be even more heavy."
"Father, this is what I should do. By the way, father, are you and mother hiding something from us?"
Lei Dao asked directly.
Since he saw his mother''s performance like God of war, he didn''t know where his father and mother were people with secrets.
Mother took a deep breath and said slowly: "We really didn''t tell you something. In fact, your father and I met in the Jianghu when he was just a novice. In an accident, your father saved me, and then we fell in love with each other. However, I have a special identity. I am a disciple of a mysterious sect of Honglian sect, and the sect has high hopes for me, but I fell in love with your father. Finally I had to betray my sect and live in seclusion in Lei family castle until now... "
Mother''s expression showed a trace of sadness.
Presumably, she still cherishes the memory and a trace of guilt for Honglian sect, or some close people in Honglian sect.
"I see..."
It''s very simple, but Lei Dao knows that it may not be easy. How can a sect that can cultivate top disciples of external skills let go of its mother so easily?
I''m afraid there are some complicated secrets.
However, these things have passed, and Lei Dao can only sigh that his cheap father was really charming or bold enough to hook up with his mother''s disciples.
Before, Lei Dao thought his father was "poor", but now he thinks his father is very lucky.
"Mother, are you hurt?"
Lei Dao saw his mother''s face more pale, and didn''t know if he missed it. He always felt that his current posture seemed to shrink again, and the whole "lost" a lot.
Mother shook her head and didn''t speak, but father Lei Heng said softly with a distressed face: "It''s all my fault. Your mother practiced the unique martial arts of the Honglian sect and couldn''t get married before she became a great success. But I became close to your mother at the beginning and gave birth to you, which led to my wife''s failure. Although I came back from practice these years, it was not perfect after all. In fact, I suffered a lot from the war with ghost hands before, and it''s a question whether I can recover in the future."
Lei Dao and others were surprised.
I didn''t expect my mother to break the work.
In other words, mother can no longer maintain the strength of the peak of external skill?
Thinking of this, Lei Dao didn''t hide any more. He took out the fragments of xuantianling directly and explained the reason to his parents.
"You mean, the fragment of Xuantian order on the flying rat was actually used to trade with the ghost hand and let the ghost hand attack our Lei family castle? But now Xuantian order has fallen into your hand. The ghost hand must know that he has an eye on you and our Lei family castle!"
Lei Heng looked dignified, and he was aware of the seriousness of the matter.
The ghost hand is very difficult to entangle. Although it has not reached the peak of external skill, it is not much worse.
This time, although the ghost hand is also injured, it can recover in a month or two at most. Liu Ruhua''s strength will only be lower and lower. If the ghost hand attacks at that time, who can stop the ghost hand?
"Why don''t we move away and move to the mansion! No matter how strong the devil is, he can''t act recklessly in the mansion?"
Levi came up with an idea.
"Fu Cheng?"
The mother shook her head and said, "it''s no use. If a strong man like ghost hand really reaches the peak of external skill, where can he go? He''s bound to get the fragments of Xuantian order, not to mention the city, even the state city."
It''s really troublesome. With the cruel character of ghost hand, he won''t let Lei family castle go even if he gets the fragment of Xuantian order.
"Is it difficult to reach the peak of external skill?"
Lei Dao couldn''t help asking.
This matter is difficult to say and simple to say.
If there is another strong person with the highest external skill, it will naturally save Leijia castle from danger, and even completely kill the ghost hands to solve the crisis of Leijia castle.
But how difficult is it for a person with the highest external skill?
"It''s hard! I''ve practiced martial arts for decades, and I have no hope of reaching the peak of external skill. So is your Uncle Zhang. In fact, even your mother is not a complete peak of external skill. She can reach the peak of external skill in decades by relying on the unique martial arts of zongmen, but there are also shortcomings. She will break it after World War I."
"There is Taoist priest Qingyuan. In fact, my wife and I have already seen that he has also practiced martial arts and is very strong. However, he seems to have not reached the peak of external skills, and he is old and frail. He doesn''t have much strength. Otherwise, how can we rest assured to stay in Leijia castle?"
"However, there''s nothing I can do. I really can''t. let the second come back and take the trained soldiers. Naturally, I can level the whole ghost hand stronghold! The second is very talented. After all these years, he''s close to the peak of external skill. Coupled with the powerful crossbow in the army, those who have the peak of external skill will hate on the spot!"
Lei Heng said gnashing his teeth.
When they heard the speech, they couldn''t help but brighten their eyes.
Yes, Leijia castle is not completely unable to compete with ghost hand mountain stronghold. At least, there is a glimmer of hope. That''s the second Lei Wu!
Today''s Lei Wu is in charge of a single army and has thousands of elite cavalry under his command. How can he be afraid of a mere stronghold?
