Chapter 188: The First Taste of the Treasure
Liuxi Town is a small mountain town far from the city, because of its remote location, many ancient buildings from the Qing Dynasty and the Republic of China have been fortunately preserved. In recent years, the whole country has vigorously developed tourism resources, and this remote town with ancient and simple customs hidden outside the world has only been shown in front of people.
Mrs. Chen lived here when she was a child, and the Chen family is a big surname here, and almost half of the people in the town have the surname Chen. The Chen family is also very cohesive, there is a special Chen family ancestral hall here to worship the ancestral tablet, no matter how far the children of the family go out to seek development and busy career, they will always send people back every year to participate in the worship of the ancestors.
In ancient times, a famous feng shui master surveyed, once pointed out that the hill behind the village is an excellent burial feng shui treasure land, so the people who died in the Chen family are willing to come back for burial. And the descendants of the Chen family are indeed prosperous, and almost all walks of life have developed well, so they also trust this to be a place with aura, and they come back with devotion every year.
This year, as the new daughter-in-law, Night Shadow also has to come back to "meet" her ancestors. The capital is too far away from here, and everyone has their own things to do, so this year's worship is represented by Night Shadow and Chen Kun, who have full authority to handle the affairs of coming to their hometown.
I contacted the people in my hometown before leaving, and when Chen Kun and Yeying left the exit passage of the airport, the person who picked up the plane had already arrived. Two big guys were already walking up to each other with a smile on their faces.
"Hello sister-in-law, hehe, Brother Kun, you are so blessed, find such a beautiful beauty to be your sister-in-law!"
The black guy smiled brightly. A mouthful of white teeth is exposed.
"Wife, this black charcoal is called Wen Jie, and the fat man is called Xiao Tao. These two boys have a good relationship with me, and if you have something to do, you can call them casually, and you don't need to be polite to them. Chen Kun smiled when he saw that it was them.
It can be seen that these two people have not dealt with Chen Kun once or twice, and Night Shadow also relaxed and responded happily.
Wen Jie took Chen Kun's suitcase and hooked his shoulders with Chen Kun: "Brother Kun." As soon as I heard that you were coming, I made the decision to arrange to stay at my house, and our brothers could get together. You got married in too much of a hurry, and we didn't make it happen. I got some delicious things to prepare for you as a gift, and the family has already started to get them, so I went back just in time for the meal. ”
"Nonsense, am I still worried about food and accommodation with you two here?" Chen Kun scolded with a smile.
Once you arrive at your destination. Nightshadow was still stunned by the patches of ancient buildings. Wen Jie introduced. In order to create a high-quality tourist attraction, the government did not change the style of this town, but specially sent people to manage, restore and repair, and try to maintain the original flavor of the town.
If it weren't for the people on the street wearing modern clothes and the occasional modern home appliance in the street shops, Night Shadow would have felt like a trip back in time.
Wenjie's family opened an "inn", and business was very prosperous. The tourism industry in the town is developing too well. Accommodation is also in short supply. Therefore, Chen Kun and Night Shadow had to say hello in advance before coming back, so they had to pick up the airport.
Settle down at Wenjie's house. After a hearty lunch, Night Shadow and Chen Kun prepared to go to the streets.
According to the rules, under the arrangement of the old patriarch in the evening, the children of the Chen family will have a dinner together to explain what they will do the next day, which is also an opportunity for everyone to communicate and contact their feelings. Early the next morning, everyone went to the ancestral hall to worship, and then concentrated on going to the ancestral cemetery to burn paper and incense, and the dinner was finished at noon. Later, it is up to each family to make their own arrangements.
Wen Jie wisely avoided it, leaving time for the newlyweds. Chen Kun held the hand of the night shadow, and the two of them walked leisurely and leisurely through the ancient streets, enjoying the unique scenery and tasting the food on the street.
But looking at it like this, Nightshadow noticed something strange.
"Husband, is there any sect here?"
"I haven't heard of it," Chen Kun replied curiously, "But I haven't been here a few times, what have you found?"
"Have you noticed, there are so many different breaths from ordinary people. "Night Shadow's habit is to be dual-minded, cultivating spiritual power anytime and anywhere, transforming the spiritual essence of the consciousness space, so he is more sensitive than ordinary monks.
"Strange, what are these people here for? Chen Kun was also curious.
"It's easy, ask someone. Night Shadow pursed her lips and smiled, and Chen Kun instantly understood what Night Shadow meant.
Night Shadow's special "questioning", Chen Kun has already seen it, under the absolute control of spiritual power, the subject of the implementation explained the questions asked without resistance, and the result was a big truth that was not concealed at all.
This is also one of the goals pursued by Chen Kun, who used to pay more attention to combat effectiveness. There are many opportunities to interrogate prisoners in his work, and if there is such a method, there is no need to extract confessions, and the work is naturally much easier.
The two followed a unique aura and found the man at a hostel where they were staying outside.
Seeing that there was no one left and right, Chen Kun was about to let the night shadow stay outside the house to be on guard, but the night shadow instantly disappeared from his figure, flashed in Chen Kun's surprised eyes, and entered the hostel, and not long after, he came out and showed his figure again.
"Husband, someone is rumoring that there is a treasure here in your hometown, and many people who practice martial arts have come to hunt for the treasure after hearing about it. ”
Chen Kun's attention was obviously not on this matter, "Wife, you, how can you be as invisible as a game?"
"I don't know, anyway, I can use most of the game's skills in reality, and I don't think there's any harm. ”
"It's amazing, it seems that it makes sense for you to let me practice more realistic exercises in the game. Chen Kun thought for a moment, "At least in terms of spiritual power, I am much stronger." As for what kind of treasure, I think what they are talking about is the feng shui burial treasure we are talking about? Or when the worship is over tomorrow, we will quietly follow and have a look?"
"Okay, then let's go buy some daily necessities and store them for preparation. ”
Night Shadow has a space to store items Chen Kun knows, such a convenient utensils similar to storage rings exist, Chen Kun didn't feel anything to be surprised about. Every time he set off to do something, his wife would buy a lot of food, drink and daily necessities to put in for emergencies, and he had long been used to it. It wasn't until he went in when the living conditions of the space were ripe and saw such a vast world that he was really shocked.
There are really a lot of people who have dinner at night, except for those who have returned from afar, it is the Chen family who has some faces in the local area. Just sit casually, and there are more than a dozen tables. The old patriarch and Mrs. Chen are about the same age, no matter what status they have, they have to listen to him to arrange things at this time, and after the babbling instructions, everyone disperses to prepare.
It's just that Chen Kun and Night Shadow didn't expect that the two juniors were finally left behind by the old patriarch.
In the old patriarch's small courtyard, the rest of the people left, leaving only the three of them. A small stove of charcoal lit a faint flame, cooking a pot of tea hot, warming the cold winter night and narrowing the distance between the three.
After a cup of tea, the old patriarch finally spoke.
"Chen Kun, at my age, I can't guarantee that I won't be able to go one day. Some secrets always have to be entrusted to someone who is capable and at ease. Among all the children of the Chen family, I have repeatedly observed that the only one who is most optimistic is you. When you come back this time, I will discuss with you to get things done, and I can't wait for this matter anymore. ”
Night Shadow and Chen Kun were very curious about what the old patriarch was going to do, so they listened quietly.
"Recently, there have been more and more people going to the mountains, and they are not ordinary tourists. As for what they're going to do, I know very well. However, I'm a bad old man, and they don't bother to delay my efforts to embarrass me when they come and go every day. Have you two ever heard of a treasure in this mountain?"
"Treasure?" Night Shadow and Chen Kun were shocked, they didn't expect the old patriarch to know such news.
"There is indeed a treasure, but it is not the money they think, but there is a miraculous spring in the ground of this mountain. Ordinary people can drink it to strengthen their bodies, and those who practice martial arts should be more effective when they use it. If you look at the people of our old Chen family, all of them are in good health, rarely get sick, and the elderly also live a long life, which is the effect of taking this spring water every year. ”
Now Night Shadow and Chen Kun are not calm, they didn't expect the old patriarch to have such an inside story here.
"But I'm afraid I won't be able to hold on anymore," the old patriarch glanced at the two of them, "This is the New Year, and those who are looking for it have not stopped, and they have been getting closer and closer to the land of that spring." Therefore, the purpose of me coming to you is to let you go and have a look, think of a way, and take this thing into the hands of our Chen family. ”
How to preserve a spring water? Chen Kun and Night Shadow glanced at each other, and they both felt tricky.
"You two will follow me when it's over tomorrow, and remember, don't let anyone know. Under the old patriarch's drooping eyes, a strange light flashed. (To be continued.) )
