Chapter 5: The Order of Xuantie
In the early morning, Hangda was quiet, and occasionally a few dormitories were too excited to play lol, and a few shouts came out, but they quickly quieted down.
Lu Chen got up quietly, closed the door gently, and stood in the corridor on the second floor, Lu Chen jumped down in a deep leap, his true qi poured into his legs, and at the moment when his feet touched the ground, he rolled forward, landed firmly on the ground, and then left the dormitory building quickly.
Sitting on a relatively hidden stone bench on the shore of Hangda Lake, with a small forest behind him, Lu Chen stared at a string of numbers in his mobile phone, pondered for a long time, and finally took a deep breath and pressed the call button.
"Toot-beep-beep......" The phone rang more than a dozen times and never got through.
Just as Lu Chen was about to hang up, suddenly the phone rang, and a lazy and old voice came.
"Hey, who is it?"
Lu Chen did not speak.
"Hey?" the voice sounded again, slightly confused.
Lu Chen gently exhaled a breath of turbidity, but still did not speak.
"Is it the young master?" the other party was a little unsure.
Lu Chen sighed lightly, his voice a little hoarse: "I'm no longer a young master, Long Bo, I want to trouble you this time." ”
The voice on the other side was extremely excited: "Young master, it's really you! The master hasn't slept yet, I'll tell the master!"
"No need, I want you to help me do something this time. Lu Chen hurriedly stopped the opening.
"The young master commanded. Lombard tried his best to calm his emotions.
"Someone assassinated me yesterday morning, a paramela, the number plate of the family. Lu Chen said slowly.
"What! Assassination, young master, are you okay, who is so bold as to dare to assassinate young master. Lombard was startled and asked anxiously.
"I'm fine, you can help me find out who did it. The bright moonlight shone on Lu Chen's face, and Lu Chen looked up at the crescent moon, a trace of fierceness flashed in his eyes.
"Although the old master once demoted the young master to a sideline, but after all, young master, you are a descendant of the Lu family, I should see who dares to attack the same sect. Lombard's eyes flashed, and his murderous aura was revealed.
Lu Chen pondered for a moment: "Is my mother okay......"
Long Bo sighed lightly: "Since the master demoted you to a sideline, the young master, you have been away from home for eight years, and the lady has not thought about tea and dinner, and her body is getting thinner and thinner. Master, go home, in fact, the master also had a hard time at the beginning. ”
"Enough! Don't mention him to him!" Lu Chen said sharply.
"Alas!" Long Bo sighed: "If the young master knew the truth of the year, you would understand the master." ”
A trace of impatience flashed on Lu Chen's face: "Okay, I'm doing well now, besides, I've broken through to the middle of the yellow level and helped me upgrade my family authority, so be it." ”
After speaking, Lu Chen hung up the phone directly, and sat quietly on the stone bench looking at the moonlight reflected on the lake.
Lombard sighed and walked to a study with his back bowed slightly.
"Knock! knock!" Lumber tapped the door a few times, and the next moment a middle-aged man's voice came from the room.
"Come in. ”
Lombard opened the door and walked gently to his desk.
The study is very large, and the whole study is full of antique atmosphere, elegant but not luxurious.
There was a slightly dim lamp on the desk, and a man in his forties and fifties dressed in Tang costume sat on a quaint Huanghuali chair reading a book. It was Lu Chen's father, Lu Zhen
"Master, the young master called just now. Lombard replied respectfully.
Lu Zhen slowly raised his head and looked at Long Bo: "Oh?
"Yesterday morning, the young master was assassinated at the gate of Colonel Hang, it was a family paramela, so the young master is fine. Lombard said truthfully.
Lu Zhen's eyebrows frowned slightly, then he stretched out again, and said to Long Bo expressionlessly: "Go and find out who it is." ”
"Yes. Lombard bowed in response. He knew that Lu Zhen was already extremely angry at this time, although Lu Zhen didn't show it, but Long Bo, who had followed Lu Zhen for decades, had already felt it deeply.
"In addition, the young master has already broken through the middle stage of the yellow level. Lombard continued.
"Is it accurate?" Lu Zhen was a little puzzled, he knew Lu Chen's qualifications very well, and it was almost impossible to break through to the middle of the yellow level so quickly.
"The news is reliable, the young master had a conflict with Lu Huachang at the school gate, and then Lu Huachang took the initiative to attack the young master and was repelled by the young master with a punch. Lu Huachang is the peak strength of the early stage of the Yellow Rank, and the young master can repel Lu Huachang so easily, which shows that the young master has definitely broken through. Lombard analyzed.
"Elevate his privileges. After Lu Zhen finished speaking, he continued to read, and Long Bo was about to leave, but suddenly Lu Zhen stopped him again.
"This token is given to him. Lu Zhen took out a black-covered token from the drawer and put it on the table, then ignored Long Bo and continued to read the book.
Long Bo looked at the token and was slightly surprised, this is the Xuantie Order, carrying this token is equivalent to the status of the nine elders of the family, which is enough to mobilize all resources and force within the various forces of the family, and even the five patriarch candidates do not have this token.
Long Bo gently picked up the Xuantie Order, bowed and left the study.
The night gradually faded, and there was a hint of fish belly white in the east, Lu Chen sat by the lake all night, recalling the bits and pieces of the past, and he would never forgive Lu Zhen for what happened back then.
It wasn't until someone started running in the morning that Lu Chen returned to the dormitory, gently pushed the door open, and the three roommates were still sleeping like dead pigs, not knowing that Lu Chen didn't return all night last night. I took a shower and climbed on the top bunk and fell asleep.
I don't know how long I slept, and the noisy sound in the bedroom woke Lu Chen up.
"I'll go around and start a group! Hurry up! I'm five in my junior high school! You guys are on."
"Brother, you're too reckless, who are you letting this follow, wait for someone!"
"Brother, next time we wait for someone to start a group, okay!"
......
"I said brothers, can you let me sleep for a while early in the morning!" Lu Chen roared angrily.
The dormitory was suddenly silent for a few seconds.
"Brother, you won't be dazed, it's four o'clock in the afternoon, and it's still early in the morning!" Han Yong said.
"No, you weren't going to steal chickens last night, were you!hey, hey!," Chen Bin said with a smirk.
Lu Chen glanced at his phone, and the time was clearly displayed on the phone: 16:41
Lu Chen was suddenly startled, remembering that he was going to meet downstairs in Shen Jiajing's bedroom at five o'clock, and he instantly woke up. got up in a hurry, washed up casually, picked up a set of clothes and pants, and went straight downstairs to Shen Jiajing's bedroom, leaving Han Yong and the three of them with a confused face.
"Toot-toot-" Suddenly, Lu Chen's mobile phone rang and picked it up casually.
"Young master, I am downstairs in your dormitory, and there is something that needs to be handed over to you by hand. Lombard's voice came from the phone.
"What is it? Lu Chen said as he ran.
"It has to be handed over to you, it's very important. Lombard said solemnly.
Lu Chen rarely heard Long Bo's serious voice, slowly stopped, glanced at the time, it was already 4:52, gritted his teeth, and rushed towards his dormitory building.
Lu Chen violently lifted his breath and ran with all his might, this speed had even surpassed the speed of the 100-meter world champion, and in the surprised eyes of everyone, Lu Chen ran downstairs in the bedroom.
In the past eight years, Long Bo has looked older than before, Lianshan has a few more wrinkles, his body is slightly bowed, dressed in a black Tang suit, holding a cane, and looking at Lu Chen who is rushing towards him kindly.
