In the past two days, Xue Lan came to see Jiang Liu several times, but Jiang Liu felt that the people in the sect were too talkative, and a girl kept running to him, after all, it would damage his reputation, so he used the excuse that he wanted to rest every time and sent Xue Lan away.

"Senior Brother Jiang, why are you up?"

Xue Lan said with concern.

Jiang Liu stretched his hands and feet, smiled and said:

"Okay, it's almost over, it's not comfortable to lie down too much, I'm about to go to the Internal Affairs Hall to see how Senior Brother Liu's affairs are handled. ”

"I just came from the Internal Affairs Hall, saying that the sect has drawn up a bereavement pension, and the nine elders said that they will let you go to the Liu family on behalf of the sect. ”

Xue Lan said, but there was an unnaturalness in her expression that she wanted to say something, but she didn't know how to say it.

Jiang Liu said: "That's good, then I'll go to the Internal Affairs Hall in a while and leave early tomorrow morning." ”

Xue Lan immediately asked:

"Senior Brother Jiang, shall I go with you?"

Jiang Liu looked at Xue Lan and said with a smile:

"Meng Shi will definitely go too, we two men are free, it's really not convenient to bring my senior sister with you.

Is there anything else going on, Senior Sister?"

How could Xue Lan not hear that Jiang Liu had given an order to expel guests.

"Well, Senior Sister has taken her leave, and Senior Brother Jiang has a good rest. ”

Xue Lan turned around and walked outside the courtyard with an embarrassed face, took two steps and stopped in place, did not look back, and said:

"Senior Brother Jiang, do you blame me in your heart?"

Jiang Liuxin said, it seems that it is his own avoidance of suspicion in the past few days, which has made Xue Lan more worried.

It seems that it is better to talk about things, Jiang Liu said with a hippie smile:

"Senior Sister Xue, you are underestimating me when you say that.

I'm just worried that such a beautiful senior sister will always run towards me, and I won't be able to control it. ”

Xue Lan was relieved that the third senior brother had murderous intent towards Jiang Liu because of himself, which made Xue Lan haunt him all the time.

Xue Lan knew that Jiang Liu's second half of the sentence was a joke, but her face still turned red all of a sudden.

"A dog's mouth can't spit out ivory!"

After Xue Lan finished speaking, he left quickly.

In the afternoon of the same day, Jiang Liu and Meng Shi came to the Internal Affairs Hall.

Jiang Liu saw that Liu Wenmin's bones were already a pile of ashes, packed in a black burial box, wrapped in a black cloth.

The Ninth Elder personally handed another package to Jiang Liu and said:

"Here are fifty quenching stones, fifty Qi Gathering Pills, and a book of swordsmanship.

Liu Wenmin has made meritorious contributions to the disciples of the sect, which is already the highest level of compassionate compensation for the disciples of the sect.

This is the deacon token of the sect, and the sect respects your wishes, and you go to the Liu family on behalf of the sect.

If you still need someone to accompany you, you can also bring it up. ”

"No need, I'll go with Meng Shi. ”

Jiang Liu admits that such pension resources are indeed abundant.

But for the Liu family, no matter how rich it is, how can it be compared to a child of an extraordinarily talented family.

Jiang Liu endured the sadness in his heart, took the package from the hands of the Nine Elders, took Liu Wenmin's ashes, and turned around and left the Internal Affairs Hall.

Early the next morning, as soon as the sky was bright, Jiang Liu and Meng Shi left the sect and set off for Liu's house.

The Great Elder and Luo Li stood on the other side of the lake, watching the river leave their residence.

The Great Elder said to Luo Li:

"You go along, his cultivation is too low after all. ”

Luo Li bowed and said:

"Yes, Master. ”

After saying that, Luo Li quickly disappeared on the shore of the Heavy Sword Lake.

Along the way, Jiangliu and Meng Shi were not as talkative as before, and they were silent a lot, so they chatted about the situation of the Liu family.

Liu Wenmin's house is in Pingluan City, on the border of the Dragon Sword Sect and the Haotian Sword Sect.

The Liu family can also be regarded as a member of the Wang family in Pingluan City, and Liu Wenmin's father, Liu Chengwu, is the current patriarch of the Liu family.

Meng Shi heard Liu Wenmin say that his mother had died long ago, and he had a younger sister at home.

The two didn't talk much, and they concentrated on hurrying, and it only took five hours for the two of them to travel more than a thousand miles.

However, Meng Shi, who didn't know what the considerations were, deliberately stated that during this trip to the Liu family, since the sect designated Jiang Liu to represent the Dragon Sword Sect, he was willing to listen to Jiang Liu's arrangement.

In the evening, the two had already arrived in Pingluan City, asked for directions, and went straight to Liu's house.

When he came to the Liu family, Jiang Liu saw that the Liu family was indeed a compound with high walls, and it had the style of a big family.

Jiang Liu walked to the guards guarding the gate and showed the token of the deacon of the Dragon Sword Sect.

Seeing that it was someone from the Dragon Sword Sect who came, a guard immediately ran into the inner courtyard to report.

After a while, a middle-aged man greeted him in high spirits and said with a smile:

"The two sword immortals of the Dragon Sword Sect have arrived, and Liu Chengxue, the head of the Liu family, has missed the distance, hoping that the two sword immortals will forgive their sins. ”

Jiang Liu saw the appearance of the visitor, and suddenly became angry in his heart, the news of Liu Wenmin's death was as early as three days ago, and the sect had already let people notify the Liu family, and the Liu family did not have a little grief atmosphere, and the person who came actually looked complacent.

"You are the patriarch, where is Brother Liu's father?"

Jiang Liu asked coldly.

"The two sword immortals will go to the inner hall to sit down for a while, and I will ask my brother to come over now. ”

Liu Chengxue smiled and made a gesture of please, and Jiang Liu and the two were inconvenient, so they followed the guards inside.

Seeing this, Liu Chengxue said to the other guard in a majestic tone:

"Go and invite the former patriarch to the inner hall, and say that the sword immortal of the Dragon Sword Sect has arrived. ”

After Liu Chengxue finished speaking, he hurried two steps and accompanied Jiang Liu and Meng Shi into the inner hall.

Jiang Liu sat down and said coldly:

"I don't know what the relationship between Patriarch Liu and Brother Liu is? I heard that Brother Liu's father was still the patriarch a few days ago, how could the Liu family change the patriarch at this moment?"

Liu Chengxue's face froze, and he instantly regained his smile, and replied respectfully:

"I am Liu Wenmin's second uncle. My eldest brother has a son Liu Wenmin, who lost his son in middle age and was disheartened and retreated.

Therefore, two days ago, under the auspices of the three clan elders, the eldest brother gave up the position of patriarch. ”

Although Jiang Liu saw that things were not so simple, he had not seen Liu Wenmin's father yet, and it was difficult to say much about other people's family affairs.

After a while, a middle-aged man with a haggard expression and a slightly old look walked into the inner hall.

"Liu Chengwu paid a visit to the Sword Immortal of the Dragon Sword Sect. ”

After the man and god finished speaking, he made a gesture to worship, and Jiang Liu hurriedly rushed over and held him up.

Jiang Liu knew that Liu Wenmin's father was called Liu Chengwu.

Jiang Liu shook himself deeply with Meng Shi beside him, and said sadly:

"Uncle, I am Jiang Liu, this is Meng Shi, the two of us are Brother Liu's best brothers in the sect, and Brother Liu is here to save me. From now on, I will be your old son. ”

Liu Chengwu looked at Jiang Liu in a daze, and tears couldn't help but flow down.

Seeing this, Jiang Liu said to Liu Chengxue, who was standing aside:

"Patriarch Liu, let's go back with our uncle first, there are some things that need to be explained. Later, we will come to the patriarch again to discuss Brother Liu's funeral. ”

Without waiting for Liu Chengxue to answer, Jiang Liu and Meng Shi helped Liu Chengwu out of the inner hall.

Seeing that the two of them were leaving like this, Liu Chengxue sat on the patriarch's seat with a blank expression.
