Chapter 332: 'Drowning Man'
"What is the strength of the Pan family?" asked Li Muchen.
"Dragon City first. Chen Wenxue said, "After Uncle Lang failed, the Pan family was also the most profitable family. Since then, in Jiangdong, except for a few families such as the Jinling Zhu family and the Zhang family, no one should be able to stabilize the Pan family. ”
"How is it compared with Xu Tongbi in Gusu?" Li Muchen asked again.
"Pretty much. Chen Wenxue thought for a while and said, "Xu Tong is more famous, after all, Gusu is the second largest city in Jiangdong, much stronger than Longcheng." But in addition to Xu Tong, there are other bigwigs in Gusu, but Longcheng is the dominant family of the Pan family. The Pan family is deeply rooted in Longcheng and has a close relationship with the Zhang family in Jinling. Coupled with the relationship between our Chen family and the Pan family, it can be said that their actual strength is not weaker than that of the Gusu Xu family, or even stronger. ”
"In addition, Maoshan is on the edge of Dragon City, and it has a lot of power, and the Pan family has a deep relationship with Maoshan. It is said that the ancestors of the Pan family once practiced in Maoshan, and many Taoist priests in Maoshan are their descendants. Chen Wenxue added.
Li Muchen nodded, knowing a little in his heart.
Anyway, it's not in a hurry to help Lang Yuwen take revenge, it's not easy to deal with the eight wealthy families in Jiangdong, you can't kill them one by one and destroy them all. That is not in line with the principle of cultivators following the trend and following fate, I am afraid it is not what Lang Yuwen wants.
Of course, if they die, Li Muchen doesn't mind helping them end their brilliant careers in advance.
While we were chatting, there was a knock on the door outside.
Luo Peiyao went to open the door.
The moment the door opened, Luo Peiyao was stunned.
Remember https://m in a second.
Chen Dingbang stood outside the door and looked at Luo Peiyao fixedly. His eyes revealed the softness that few people could see as the head of the Chen family, with a hint of pity, a hint of melancholy, and a hint of dodging guilt.
The two of them just stood silently, looking at each other with complicated eyes.
"Don't you invite me in and sit?" Chen Dingbang was the first to speak.
Luo Peiyao looked behind Chen Dingbang, there were no bodyguards. She hesitated for a moment, and finally stepped aside and let Chen Dingbang enter the house, and then closed the door.
Chen Wenxue looked up and saw Chen Dingbang, and stood up in surprise: "Dad, why are you here?"
Chen Dingbang ignored him, but looked at Li Muchen and shouted: "Li Gongzi!"
He called him a child, but his tone was not respectful, nor was he angry, but calm. The calm tone, coupled with a bit of sharp eyes, shows the unique calm of a generation of heroes.
Li Muchen admired Chen Dingbang's tranquility a little, and it was not easy to come alone at this time and maintain this tranquility.
"Master Chen!"
Li Muchen nodded slightly and responded, neither nervous because of Chen Dingbang's sudden arrival, nor arrogant enough to ignore it.
He was very calm, as if he had expected Chen Dingbang to come, or the person who came had nothing to do with him at all, just a passer-by.
This calm attitude of neither humility nor arrogance made Chen Dingbang look up to him.
"Not bad. Chen Dingbang said a word, and did not talk to Li Muchen again, nor did he look at him again.
As the head of the Chen family and the top rich man in Shenzhou, Chen Dingbang will not show anything just because he looks down on the other party, nor will he ask others for anything because of the purpose of his coming today.
He sat down on the sofa and said to Luo Peiyao with a smile, "Don't you pour me a cup of tea? ”
When Luo Peiyao heard the words "Biluochun", she was stunned for a moment before she said: "I haven't soaked Biluochun for a long time, and I only have ordinary green tea from tea farmers bought in the vegetable market at home, and there are several packs of black tea, all of which are brought back from literature, what do you want to drink?"
Chen Dingbang was a little stunned, oh, and said: "Then green tea, the tea you bought should not be wrong." ”
Luo Peiyao went to make tea.
Chen Dingbang turned to Chen Wenxue and said, "You guys go out for a walk, I'll talk to your mother for a while." ”
Chen Wenxue nodded indiscriminately, and then glanced at Li Muchen.
Li Muchen had already stood up and said, "Let's go." ”
Chen Wenxue breathed a sigh of relief, he was also worried that Li Muchen would be embarrassed if he didn't give face to his father. He was quite willing to give his father and mother the opportunity to be alone, and even deliberately created such opportunities more than once, but without success. My father deliberately avoided it.
He knew that for twenty years, although his mother did not say anything, she had been looking forward to such an opportunity in her heart.
When he went out, Chen Wenxue carefully closed the door and pushed it hard to make sure it was locked. It seems that this will lock the space inside, so that the father and mother can spend more time alone.
When he went downstairs, Chen Wenxue kept looking, and when he got downstairs, he said strangely: "Hey, my dad didn't bring a bodyguard!"
This is the first time in Chen Wenxue's cognition.
"My dad used to have at least four bodyguards with him wherever he went. Chen Wenxue walked around the entire building, "This time, I didn't bring any of them." He wasn't even there with the driver or the car, so he wouldn't have walked in, would he?"
Li Muchen didn't find the luxury car in his sight, his divine sense swept over, and there was indeed no martial arts master with true qi fluctuations in his body nearby.
"It seems that your dad still has your mom in his heart. Li Muchen said.
Chen Wenxue felt very happy, but the more this happened, the more angry he felt, and said: "My dad is too unreal and tired to live! If I were to fly away with my beloved, I would not bother to care about anything else!"
Li Muchen smiled: "So you can't be the head of the family." I kind of understand your dad's hard work. ”
"What painstaking work?"
"Asking you to marry a girl from the Huang family is paving the way for you to be the head of the family. He's so well-intentioned!"
Li Muchen stopped, pointed ahead and said, "If you're like him, are you willing?"
Chen Wenxue looked over, it was a sixty or seventy-year-old man, wearing a shabby sunhat, and under the brim was a wrinkled face.
The cold wind blew, and the yellow leaves on the trees fell down with a bang. The uncle bent his back, holding a broom in his dry hand, and swept the fallen leaves into a pile.
A car drove up, and the wheels rolled up a whirlwind, scattering the pile of fallen leaves that had just been concentrated. The uncle swept it again, and when he swept these fallen leaves into a pile again, there were already yellow leaves all over the ground behind him.
Chen Wenxue looked a little sad and said: "Bitterness is a bit bitter, but ordinary also has ordinary benefits, at least it will not be as indifferent as in the big family, and you have to fight for power and wealth." Although he worked hard, he went back to reunite with his family, eat a hot meal, and enjoy the joy of family. ”
Li Muchen shook his head and said, "How do you know that his family is reunited? Most of the children of poor families are not around, and they are all working outside. How do you know that his husband and wife are in harmony? A poor and lowly husband and wife mourn everything, and maybe his wife is not the person he likes. Or maybe his wife has long since left him, and he can't even get a bowl of hot rice when he returns. You are the son of a family, and you will not know the suffering of the poor. ”
"Who doesn't want to be an ordinary person?" Li Muchen remembered when he was a child, "If I can be with my relatives forever, if there is no birth, old age, sickness and death, if poverty does not cost people's lives, I would rather live an ordinary life than practice." But in this world, where is there anything truly ordinary!"
Chen Wenxue was stunned, looking at Li Muchen as if he didn't know him.
What has this guy been through?
By this time, they had already walked outside the community.
Listening to a luxury car on the side of the road outside the gate.
Chen Wenxue recognized it at a glance, it was Chen Dingbang's car. The driver was sitting in the car.
"My dad really walked into the community on foot, and it seems that he not only has my mother in his heart, but also has a lot of respect for my mother. Chen Wenxue said happily.
Li Muchen suddenly frowned and said, "Your dad shouldn't park the car here." ”
Chen Wenxue was stunned: "Why?"
"This car is too conspicuous, and he doesn't bring bodyguards, if the enemy knows......"
Before he finished speaking, Li Muchen's consciousness moved, and he suddenly shouted, "Not good!"
Regardless of Chen Wenxue, his figure disappeared on the spot, turned into a streamer, and flew towards Luo Peiyao's home.
