People were always greedy.
The so-called Five Poisonous Hearts of Buddhism: Greed, Anger, Stupidity, Hesitation, and Doubt.
In ancient books, it was often mentioned that lust was the leader of all evils, but this' lust 'did not refer to sex, but to indulge and indulge without restraint, which was also' greed. '
That is, the source of all evils, greed was the leader of all evils.
Greed, in fact, was the root of all troubles.
Could it be that Jiang Fengyan really took the Udumbara Flower because he refused to accept the decision of the ancestor?
People often said —
Even if you have money, you need to be alive to spend it.
But this Udumbara Flower was a rare treasure that could not be bought with money.
And the most important point was …
This flower was easy to take, and one only needed to open their mouth and swallow the flower, and it would immediately take effect.
In the face of such a strong temptation, even someone with a firm heart like Jiang Yuankui could not help but feel greedy, let alone Jiang Fengyan, a young man who was still wet behind the ears.
Therefore, Jiang Fengyan decided to gamble with his little life.
As long as he cooked the rice, the ancestor should not do anything to him because he was the eldest son of the direct line of descent.
No matter what, Jiang Fengyan was still a pure-blooded Jiang clansman.
Even if he took the Udumbara Flower, it would just flow to his family's field.
It had to be said that Jiang Fengyan was indeed very bold.
But he neglected the most important question, and that was —
How far could he run?
When he was caught, would he be able to successfully swallow this Udumbara Flower?
Jiang Fengyan overestimated his speed and greatly underestimated the pursuit he would face.
In fact, the moment Jiang Fengyan ran away, Chen Xi had already noticed something was wrong.
The reason why he did not immediately take action was actually because he wanted to see if they could solve this problem on their own for the sake of the old man.
After all, he was just a guest who came to visit. How could a guest go to the kitchen to serve dishes by himself?
Based on this consideration, Chen Xi did not stop Jiang Fengyan.
However, the Jiang Clan members present seemed to have been struck dumb by this sudden turn of events.
After a long while, a few people came back to their senses first, and then directly set off to chase.
The speed of running was naturally not as fast as the speed of flying.
But …
Jiang Fengyan never thought of running away.
He only wanted to use this opportunity to stall for time so that he could successfully swallow the entire Udumbara Flower.
Therefore, as soon as those people rose into the air, Jiang Fengyan had already stuffed the Udumbara Flower into his mouth.
"Sigh."
Seeing that it was too late to stop him, Chen Xi could only sigh silently and prepare to do it himself.
However.
Just as Chen Xi was about to attack …
The old man's voice suddenly exploded from the clouds, causing the entire Heron Island to tremble.
"Evil creature!"
"How dare you!!!"
That voice was so loud that it sounded like the furious roar of a deity.
Immediately afterward, a huge amount of True Essence gushed out from the pavilion in the middle of the lake.
The ferocity of its momentum was as if the heavens and earth were collapsing, and the mountains were collapsing and the earth was cracking!
An incomparably surging Zhen Yuan poured out from the pavilion in the middle of the lake. The lake water that was affected by the Zhen Yuan suddenly sprayed up into the sky like a fountain.
In that instant.
Raging waves filled the sky, and the mountains and rivers trembled!
The entire Heron Island was trembling in the old man's anger.
Seeing this, Jiang Yuankui was so scared that his liver and gallbladder were almost torn apart. He could only look up to the sky and shout in panic, "This child is not sensible. Ancestor, please show mercy and spare his life!!!"
Unfortunately …
Jiang Yuankui's words were still too late.
A water column suddenly rose from the lake and then shot toward Jiang Fengyan at an unimaginable speed.
At that moment.
Time seemed to have stopped.
Jiang Fengyan even maintained the posture of wanting to swallow the Udumbara Flower as he ran.
"Boom!"
However, the huge wave arrived first. Like a flash flood, it instantly swallowed Jiang Fengyan whole.
When the huge wave dissipated, the rocks, weeds, trees, and slopes where Jiang Fengyan was standing were all buried by the huge wave.
As a result, the area within a few hundred meters had become a ruined scene after the flash flood.
There was nothing left.
Only broken trees, broken branches, and yellow soil were left on the ground.
After seeing such a scene, Jiang Yuankui couldn't help but feel sad.
After rushing to the place where Jiang Fengyan was before, he completely disregarded his image and used his hands to search the soil.
"Fengyan?!"
"Fengyan?!"
"Where are you?"
"Father is here to save you! Where are you? "
"Answer me!!!"
The so-called father and son were connected by heart. At this moment, it was deeply reflected.
Even if Jiang Fengyan had committed a heinous crime, Jiang Yuankui couldn't bear to see him suffer any harm.
But how powerful was the ancestor's power?
With just one move, everything in front of him was wiped out.
Including Jiang Fengyan.
When he thought that his son might have been killed by the ancestor himself and died without a complete corpse, Jiang Yuankui couldn't help but lie in the soil and cry bitterly.
But at this moment …
The old man's voice sounded again.
"Pass my order. Jiang Fengyan has committed a crime of disobedience. He is punished to meditate in the dry pool for sixty years. During this period, without my permission, he is not allowed to take a step out of the dry pool!"
The dry pool was the place where the Jiang Clan punished sinners. There were all kinds of torturing formations set up in it.
But the ancestor asked Jiang Fengyan to stay in there for sixty years, which was sixty years …
This could already be considered the harshest punishment.
But when Jiang Yuankui heard this sentence, it was as if he had heard great news. He quickly knelt on the ground and kowtowed while shouting, "Thank you ancestor for not killing me!"
"Thank you ancestor for not killing me!"
"Thank you ancestor for not killing me …"
… …
After the old man made his move, this farce finally came to an end.
As for the Udumbara Flower that countless people yearned for day and night, under the old man's protection, it flew into Chen Xi's hands, unharmed.
The flower finally fell into the hands of the fated person.
"Thank you."
After reaching out to take the Udumbara Flower, Chen Xi turned around and looked at the pavilion in the middle of the lake with interest.
The old man really hid it well.
Just from this, Chen Xi was enough to judge that —
The old man's strength at his peak was definitely not inferior to Bai Hong's!
As expected of an old man who had lived for more than a thousand years. He really did not make a move, but when he did, it was indeed shocking.
Chen Xi had always thought that after the old man lost his physical body, he had completely become the Jiang Clan's mascot.
Now it seemed that he had underestimated the heroes of the world.
The old man must have mastered some secret technique that even he did not know about. That was why he could continue to cast spells without a physical body.
To be honest, Chen Xi was now more and more interested in this old man.
He hid too many secrets, and Chen Xi could not understand his motives at all.
There was no such thing as a free lunch in this world.
So here came the question …
From the beginning, the old man had been especially attentive to him. Now, he did not hesitate to seriously injure his descendants to give him the Udumbara Flower …
