Chapter 3: The Remnants of the Ancestors

Hold on to it, lose it, fill it with a cup, hurt it to yourself, ask for it, it will destroy it, be proud and overwhelmed, destroy its way, retreat after success, and the way of heaven is also.

------------ "The Book of the Emperor of Man - Guaranteeing the Defect"

In the Jingluo Mansion, Chu Hu, who had just returned, was told a piece of news by his staff that made him angry.

"What did you say?" said Chu Hu angrily at the staff who were reporting to him.

Just now, the staff reported to him the news that Gongzi Xiu secretly went to that cave, and there was something there, Chu Hu knew best.

"Maybe Gongzi is just curious, and he won't do anything out of the ordinary. The staff added.

"I hope so. Chu Hu comforted himself, but he didn't believe in his son anymore.

------------

In a cave on the outskirts.

"Sister Qian, there's a fun place here. Li Xingmeng greeted Qian behind.

"Little Meng'er, don't mess around, come back quickly. Qian reminded.

At this moment, a young man with a pale face came out of it, and a trace of excitement and nervousness could be faintly seen in his expression. Seeing Qian and Xiao Meng'er, the young man waved his hand to show friendship and left.

"Isn't that the son of the Chu family, how could he come out of there?" Qian was curious, but still left this place with a naughty little dream.

------------

"I've seen big brother. Seeing Chu Xiu coming back, Chu Lian saluted him.

However, Chu Xiu just hummed and ignored Chu Lian, and went straight into the room where he usually ate, Chu Lian was used to this, and the relationship between the eldest brother and himself was not very good.

When it was time to eat, Chu Xiu lowered his head as if he was thinking about something, even if Chu Hu called his name, he didn't hear it, Chu Lian thought to himself: What's wrong with the eldest brother today, such a rude in front of his father.

Although Chu Hu didn't say anything, his frowning brows already indicated his mood at the moment.

"Li'er, sit next to me, our father and daughter haven't talked for a long time. While eating, Chu Hu suddenly said such a thing.

Chu Lian once wondered if he had heard it wrong, since he was a child, his father never cared about him, and sat next to Chu Hu, Chu Hu greeted Chu Lian coldly, and all kinds of parents were short.

After eating, Chu Lian returned to her castle, she felt that everything was incredible today, the eldest brother was suddenly silent, and the indifferent father suddenly cared about herself.

After the thing was done, Xingkong was weak and wanted to get out of bed, but Chu Lian grabbed him and threatened: "Miss Ben hasn't rested yet, you dare to rest, I will pick your skin." ”

The helpless starry sky fought with Chu Lian again.

------------

Late at night, Chu Xiu wiped the long sword in his hand, his eyes were cold, and he muttered: "I'm sorry, father, for the sake of the Chu family, the child can only do this." ”

Immediately, Chu Xiu put on his night clothes and took a dozen or so dead soldiers to Chu Hu's bedroom.

Chu Xiu easily entered Chu Hu's bedroom, and when he saw that he was so relaxed, he smiled secretly in his heart: It didn't take any effort to get here.

Chu Xiu stabbed the bed frantically, it seemed that he would not give up until he stabbed the person on the bed to death, and only after more than ten stabs did Chu Xiu light the oil lamp, but what made him dumbfounded was that the bed was empty, only many quilts were stabbed to shreds by himself.

Not good, Chu Xiu thought in his heart.

Sure enough, I saw a lot of footsteps coming from outside the room, Chu Xiu trembled and looked back, his father Chu Hu had already surrounded this place with more than a hundred soldiers.

Chu Xiu was so frightened that his legs weakened, and the long sword in his hand was unstable, and he fell to the ground with a "dang".

"Father, the child knows his mistakes, please forgive him. Chu Xiu bowed to Chu Hu three times and knocked nine times, and his head was already red when he hit the floor.

Chu Hu sighed, helped Chu Xiu up and said, "Xiu'er, you are my only flesh and blood after all, how can I bear to harm you, I think it was you who were tempted by those old things." ”

Chu Xiu didn't understand why his father said that he was his only flesh and blood, didn't he have a sister, but it didn't matter anymore, the important thing was that he still had a chance.

Seeing that Chu Hu turned around and wanted to dismiss the soldiers, Chu Xiu took the opportunity to pull out the dagger inserted in his waist and poke it at Chu Hu's back, but no matter how hard Chu Xiu tried, the dagger just couldn't poke in, although Chu Hu's clothes were punctured, there was actually a layer of gold silk inner armor inside.

Chu Xiu's mouth opened wide and he was at a loss, but Chu Hu couldn't bear it anymore, and stabbed a sword into Chu Xiu's heart and killed him.

After killing Chu Xiu, Chu Hu hugged his corpse and cried bitterly.

------------

The next morning, Chu Lian was told by the housekeeper to go to the study of the envoy.

I heard that the eldest brother assassinated his father last night and was killed by his father, and this morning, his father suddenly summoned him to the study, thinking that it was related to the eldest brother, Chu Lian thought in his heart.

When he entered Chu Hu's study, he saw that Chu Hu seemed to be a few years older overnight, frowning so that people didn't dare to approach.

"The daughter has seen her father. Chu Lian saluted Chu Hu.

Looking at Chu Lian, who was walking in a different posture than usual, Chu Hu asked casually, "Are you getting along with that kid called Starry Sky?"

"Daughter......" Chu Lian didn't know how to explain, could it be that he really wanted to taste the taste of the forbidden fruit.

Fortunately, Chu Hu didn't ask too much about this matter, but said with relief: "Li'er, I will agree to whoever you want to be your husband, as long as you like it." ”

"Ah...... Father...... The daughter understood. Chu Lian was speechless.

Then Chu Hu asked Chu Lian to sit next to him, but he didn't ask, but looked at the book quietly, and seeing that Chu Hu didn't speak for a long time, Chu Lian couldn't help but ask: "Is it for the eldest brother that my father summoned his daughter today?"

"Don't talk about him, Li'er, are you willing to manage Yingchuan County?" Chu Hu suddenly said such a sentence, so that Chu Lian didn't know how to answer well.

"Father, daughter doesn't understand what you mean. Chu Lian said cautiously.

"Father is old, your eldest brother has done stupid things again, Yingchuan must have a master after all. Chu Hu put down the book in his hand, stood up and said.

------------

On the outskirts of the castle, Dao Sheng was using the starry sky to do Dao Ji experiments, Xiao Meng'er was watching curiously from the side, and Qian was also observing carefully.

"Teacher, it's over, it's so itchy. "Starry Sky is very uncomfortable lying on the table.

"Don't gag, you kid, when the experiment is over, your strength will be stronger, and it's good for you. Daosheng said with a smile.

At this time, Chu Lian also came, and when she saw this scene, she was also curious and asked, "Senior, what is this for?"

"Develop development capabilities for this kid. Daosheng replied casually.

Originally, Chu Lian wanted to wait for the experiment to end before telling everyone the good news that he might become the next Yingchuan Economic Envoy, but seeing that the experiment had not ended for a long time, Chu Lian couldn't help but say happily: "Just now, my father wanted me to be the next Yingchuan Economic Envoy, and I want to invite everyone to a banquet tonight." ”

However, Dao Sheng asked, "Can the envoy tell you why Gongzi Xiu died?"

Chu Lian didn't understand why Dao Sheng asked such a question, and replied truthfully: "None." ”

Dao Sheng shook his head, sighed lightly and stopped talking, Chu Lian wanted to ask, but Dao Sheng didn't pay attention to it anymore, Chu Lian was helpless, and pulled the starry sky to do indescribable things, just tasted the taste, it is inevitable that he will not know how to control himself.

Qian on the side saw Chu Lian leave before asking, "Why did the teacher sigh just now?"

Dao Sheng opened his mouth and said, "Qian, do you know the story of the king's precursor?"

Qian shook her head awkwardly and said, "The disciple is ignorant and doesn't know. ”

Dao Sheng explained: "If Chu Jingluo really wants Chu Lian to inherit the family, why should he keep his mouth shut about the matter of Gongzi's retirement, it is just to drive the king forward and let Chu Lian be a pawn to pave the way for others." ”

"Ah...... This, why didn't the teacher tell Chu Lian just now. Qian was surprised.

"We are guests, Chu Jingluo is the master, it is ashamed to bother him to receive us, how can we take care of other people's family affairs. Daosheng reminded.

------------

"It's really strange, that big brother named Chu Xiu has been like a different person since he came out of that cave. Playing in the manor, Xiao Meng'er unintentionally said her doubts.

Chu Lian, who had just come out of the castle, heard this and asked curiously, "Little Meng'er, what cave?"

"Ahh

------------

Thinking of the inexplicable death of the eldest brother, the Taoist seniors also sighed lightly, his father suddenly cared about himself, Chu Lian always felt that something was wrong, when he heard that the eldest brother had been to a strange cave with a spoof, Chu Lian decided to go inside to find out and solve the doubts in his head.

The cave was gloomy and bottomless, and from time to time a gust of wind blew and made Chu Lian tremble.

"Anyone?" asked Chu Lian tentatively.

Seeing that there was no reply, Chu Lian Chu Lian walked forward with some fear, and at this time, many strange sounds came from afar.

"Chu Xiu, are you back, why hasn't the power of imprisonment in our bodies disappeared, didn't you kill your father, do you want to break your oath. Suddenly, an angry voice came, startling Chu Lian.

"It's a girl, not Chu Xiu. Another ghost said.

"I can feel the closeness of blood from this girl, who seems to be our junior. The other ghost said suspiciously.

Looking at these floating soul bodies, Chu Lian asked suspiciously, "Who are you?"

"I am your ancestor. One of the ghosts said as a matter of course, because he was telling the truth.

"Can you talk well. Chu Lian thought that the other party was scolding herself, so she was a little angry.

------------

Today's Chu family is particularly lively, Miss Chu Lian of the Chu family wants to marry the starry sky, and the starry sky enters the Chu family. Yingchuan officials, large and small, and wealthy businessmen all came to congratulate.

Chu Hule looked at the two married people with care, and helped Chu Lian, who was bowing and bowing,

All the guests were drunk and helped each other back to their homes.

In Chu Hu's bedroom, Chu Hu, who was sleeping soundly, felt a pain in his body, and suddenly opened his eyes only to see his daughter Chu Lian's hands full of blood, and a dagger pierced his abdomen.

"Mercy, you!" Chu Hu couldn't believe it.

"Father, why, why would you rather inherit the family to a few nephews than give your own daughter, do you look down on Lian'er so much?" Chu said pitifully, at this time she also understood that the words in the study at the beginning were just a trick to her.

"Li'er, listen to me. Chu Hu pleaded.

"You want to stall, right, those of your staff are coming in. Chu Lian sneered.

"You!" Seeing the failure of the plan to delay time, Chu Hu was first afraid, and then laughed madly: "Haha, slut, do you think that if I die, the head of the Chu family will be yours, and Yingchuan County will be yours, you are a slut like your mother." ”

"Smack. Chu Lian slapped Chu Hu fiercely, and said angrily: "What did you say?"

Blood flowed from the corners of Chu Hu's mouth, his hair was loose, and he said madly: "You are a sinful seed, you are not my biological daughter at all, you are born from your mother's slut and someone else's cheating, just because you still want to inherit my family? It's just a dream! I have already written a will in advance to inherit everything from the Chu family to my good nephews." ”

At this time, the housekeeper came over with his baggage, took out a piece of paper and said, "Is this the will you are talking about?"

"How could you!" Chu Hu was shocked and angry.

The butler then opened the baggage, revealing the heads of several young men.

"Those good nephews of yours are dead, and Miss Chu Lian is indeed your biological daughter, Lang Qiuchuan did not take the last step with his wife back then, and the two were just close friends. The housekeeper slowly told the truth of the year.

Chu Hu was speechless in shock, thinking that Chu Lian was not his biological daughter, so he snubbed it in every possible way and used it as a chess piece, but now, the reality told him that what he had been targeting was actually his own daughter, which made him unacceptable no matter what.

At this time, a few wanton laughter were heard not far away, and several ghosts floated in.

"Chu Hu, you can't die well!"

"Chu Hu, our Chu family does not have you, an unscrupulous descendant who has forgotten his ancestors. ”

"Chu Hu, we are kind enough to help you and make you stronger, we originally wanted you to worship us well after you strengthen the Chu family, but you imprisoned our remnants for your own selfishness, you wolf-hearted and dog-lunged people. ”

Chu Hu saw that the remnant soul of the ancestor who was imprisoned in the cave of the back mountain was released, not only was he not afraid, but he smiled hideously: "Shut up, do you still think that this is the period of the human emperor, you old things who have entered the earth, since you are dead, you should honestly dedicate everything to your children and grandchildren, otherwise why should your descendants worship you, just because of that ridiculous bloodline?" haha!"

Chu Lian didn't bother to listen to Chu Hu say some angry things here, and directly pulled out his sword and stabbed him to death.

------------

In the castle, Dao Sheng said to the hesitant starry sky: "Boy, have you thought about it, if you are willing to stay here, we will leave first." ”

"Teacher, don't worry about him, just let him and Miss Chu stay in Sauvignon Blanc here. Qian said on the side.

At this time, several guards of the Chu family rode over and said to the starry sky: "Xingxianggong, the envoy of Jinglu asked you to go to Jingluo Mansion." ”

"Which one is the master?" the starry sky wondered.

"Yingchuan's new envoy is Lord Chu Lian. The guard replied truthfully.

Looking at Dao Sheng and the others who were gradually moving away, Xingkong finally sighed and said: "You go back, I'm leaving, please pass a word to Chu Lian for me, although I really like her, but I prefer a free and easy life rather than being trapped in a castle as a little white face." ”

Then the starry sky wanted to follow Daosheng and the others, and the guard saw that the starry sky refused to go with him, so he said sharply: "Xingxianggong, offended, the master of the scripture said, you must see people when you live, and you must see corpses when you die, whether you are alive or dead, you can only be adults, and adults will never allow others to share." ”

The starry sky was outnumbered and gradually fell into the downwind, and at this time, a beautiful shadow stopped the guards, it was Qian.

"Great, Sister Qian, I knew you wouldn't leave me alone. Starry Sky pulled Qian's arm and was grateful.

"If it weren't for the teacher saying that I still lacked experimental materials on the road, I wouldn't have come back. Qian pushed away Starry Sky's hand and said in disgust.

Several guards were not Qian's opponents, and were knocked to the ground by Qian, and then, Xingkong and Qian followed Dao Sheng and Li Xingmeng, who were still waiting in the distance, and everyone left Yingchuan County in a carriage.
