Chapter 249: Reflection

The entire Qi family, everyone was terrified.

Old Man Qi personally ordered to strengthen the inspection, almost everyone had a heart, but the old man calmed down and said sharply: "What are you afraid of, even if he really becomes a ghost, we will let him die again, eat!" ”

A meal tasteless.

Qi Xu used it a little, waited for everyone to finish eating, sent the old man away, went back to the room and waited for a while, and then slipped back to the backyard.

His mother sat in the courtyard, watering the cluster of roses in the east corner, which grew so strong that the vines covered the walls, and the flowers bloomed more brightly and red as blood.

"Mother!"

Qi Xu bit his lip and looked frightened, "He's gone." ”

"I know, don't be afraid." The beautiful woman smiled, took out the Medicine Buddha's pendant from her purse, wiped it with a handkerchief, and handed it to Qi Xu.

Qi Xu's hands trembled: "How about the dog!" ”

The beautiful woman laughed, "What can I do... Did Xu'er think I was going to disembowel? ”

Her expression was gentle, "Don't worry, he pretended to swallow that thing, not really." And, how could I do such a rude thing? Of course, the dog can't stay at home, if you stay, your uncle will definitely be angry, he is angry, your mother and I are very, very afraid. ”

Qi Xu lowered his head and listened, feeling uneasy in his heart.

There seems to be something wrong with his mother, who has been gentle and amiable most of the time since she was a child, but sometimes she suddenly becomes strange.

I can't tell what's wrong, it's a little awkward anyway. Last time, Xiaocui made a mistake, and her mother said to send her home...... But probably she forgot that Xiaocui was born in a family, her parents died early, and she no longer had a home, even if she told her uncle that Xiaocui eloped with someone and escaped, her uncle believed it. Who wouldn't believe their own young lady. Qi Xu didn't trust his mother very much.

Xiaocui is loyal to him, he is an old man who has followed him since he was a child, he has always understood the rules, and he has never seen anyone who is good. How could you do something ugly for no apparent reason!

He had the closest relationship with his mother. Spend the most time together. listens to his mother the most, but he is also the only one who really knows the hidden side of his mother.

Qi Xu hid his hidden uneasiness. The most important thing now is to find ...... Dad, his dad can't have an accident.

For a while, he couldn't help but hate that Rong'an County Lord!

If she hadn't been in trouble...... None of this is going to happen!

His mother smiled softly and took out the small Medicine Buddha statue from her arms: "Take it, what to do, you know it in your heart." ”

Qi Xu sank his heart, nodded, his hands trembled, took the Buddha statue, and put it close to his heart, no one noticed, the moment he put the thing on his chest, a shallow white light came out of his chest and drilled into the body of the Buddha statue.

Sighing, he first helped his mother back to the room to sleep, it was about to dawn, his mother was not in good health, she didn't like the sun very much, she always rested in the room during the day, if she was tired for a while, she would have no energy for a long time.

After settling his mother, Qi Xu was still upset, and couldn't help but leave the house and ride a horse to the mountains to hunt.

Hunting except for the fox can not be beaten, the rest can be played, he has not been able to hunt foxes since he was a child, and I don't know why, it seems that when he was very young, he hit a white-haired fox, and as soon as he came home, he became seriously ill, and he was unconscious, and some people said that he offended the great immortals, so he caused trouble.

After that, he did not enter the mountain for several years, and although he was not afraid, he never dared to fight the fox on the mountain again.

Riding a horse galloping in the mountains and forests, he finally had a little pleasure, just around a small corner, just happened to bump into a group of people and horses, he looked up, he frowned, secretly guarded.

It's someone from the Yao family!

It's not a matter of a day or two that the Qi family and the Yao family don't deal with each other.

Qi Xu was ready, I was afraid that he would definitely be ridiculed by a bunch of them, but he never thought that the other party also saw him, but he didn't see it, and he galloped past, leaving only countless dead branches and leaves to rush towards him......

"That's the kid of the Qi family?"

"Qi family? There are only three or two kittens and puppies left, and it is estimated that there will be no more Qi family in the future. ”

Qi Xu didn't know how much of the words floating in the wind were his own speculation, but his face was miserable and green, and boundless anger suddenly surged in his heart, he turned his horse's head suddenly, rushed home, and only after entering the house did he try to adjust and return to the personable son of the Qi family.

Back in the room, Qi Xu opened the dark pavilion on the wall, revealing a wooden sign inside.

Qi Xu put on a stick of incense and knelt down to chant silently.

After reciting a scripture, a very clear and solemn voice came into the ears, the voice was vague, but the message conveyed made people panic.

“…… Catch her, as long as you have her, everything will be fine! ”

Qi Xu made a decision in his heart, his face was pale, but his gaze was extremely firm.

"For the sake of the Qi family, for the sake of his father, Qi Xu is willing to go to hell and never be reborn."

He recited the scriptures three times in a row, closed the door of the dark pavilion, straightened his clothes, and went out to the back mountain.

On the jade mountain, not far from the Qi family, there is a small temple, it is the temple of descendants, the incense is not prosperous, there is almost no incense, and there are no outsiders to come, only the ancestors and grandchildren depend on each other, and rarely appear in front of people.

Qi Xu knocked on the door in the past, and there was a little hesitation in his heart, but after knocking, his heart was settled.

As soon as the door opened, an old monk with crane hair and a childish face came out, and looking at his appearance, it was very in line with the image of a high-ranking monk.

As soon as he saw Qi Xu, he sighed: "Amitabha, since the donor is still here, then come in." ”

Qi Xu bit his lip and entered step by step, entering a small Buddhist hall.

The old monk didn't go in, his eyes were closed, his eyes were compassionate, and he sighed bitterly: "Amitabha, Amitabha!" ”

The capital city of Rong'an County Lord's Mansion

Hongchen also remembered the affairs of the Qi family in his heart, although it seemed to have nothing to do with her, but the queen's illness and the Qi family had nothing to do with it, it was just an intuition. But a spiritual master's intuition should also be taken seriously.

"County Lord, I used to think that the Qi family was very amazing, but now it seems that at most, even if it is the last stream, in a few days, I am afraid that I will be removed from the family."

"Not necessarily, it's a good reputation."

Sometimes with a good reputation, you have the capital to make a comeback.

There is more and more information about the Qi family.

Hongchen felt as if she was looking at a behemoth a little weak. Decline.

Qi family in the last ten years. It seems that he has been infected with countless bad luck, and his children and grandchildren have accidents and deaths one after another, and disasters in the family are frequent. Now it relies on the prestige of the ancestors to support the face of the family.

A lot of people feel. It should be caused by the Qi family's failure to enter the court for generations. The so-called family, isn't it Shiqing Shilu, who has broken away from the imperial court. It doesn't hurt for a short time, it's called seclusion, but it will take a long time, and there will be ghosts if it doesn't decline.

Hongchen looked at the situation of the Qi family, but felt that there might be some reasons for this, but since the Qi family has been like this for a hundred years, there is no reason why it has only started to get bad recently, and there should be other reasons.

Luo Niang and Xiao Yan were also very curious about this.

Recently, a group of girls are studying the rise and fall of those families, mainly because the power of Shengmen is gradually expanding, and there are some internal controversies, although it is not so serious, Luo Niang and they are extremely important, much more important than Hongchen.

As a woman, it is so difficult to settle down in the world, a little bit of power in the palm of her hand, naturally much more at ease, and the capital is sinister, if there is no one at hand, she is afraid that she will always be scared, and most of the things she wants to do will not be able to do well.

Luo Niang is different, their original intention is to be merciful and loving, to take in those children, to raise them to become talents, to give them a bite to eat, so that they can survive in this world, and the dignity of survival is all out of their own hearts, and they naturally pay more attention to the development of 'Shengmen'.

A group of girls gathered together and muttered, and someone outside sent a post.

Hongchen opened it and looked at it, and smiled: "Interesting, I thought that the Qi family was going to retreat and refuse to have anything to do with me anymore." ”

The post was sent by the Qi family, and they sincerely apologized on it, and invited the lord of Rong'an to attend the birthday banquet three days later - the seventieth birthday of the Duke of Qi.

"The choice of words and sentences is very earnest."

Hongchen sighed, "Since Senior Brother Lin has no news, Xue Baiqiao's wedding banquet still has a while, so it's good to go to the Qi family to have a look." ”

A century-old family, no matter which one it is, there is something to see if it is down-and-out or prosperous, and the feng shui of the Qi family is actually good, and the aura is also strong.

Hongchen raises little jasmine at home, loves the house and Wu, and also loves the flowers and trees that have spirit in other people's homes.

There are always more plants than animals that give birth to spirits.

Maybe it's because they live longer, or maybe it's because they kill less and sin less, and if they can raise a garden of intelligent plants, it must be good.

The ones in Qi's family, she loves them very much.

Hongchen went to Qi's house this time, but he still didn't put up a fight, and he didn't follow except for Luo Niang, a female official, and a coachman, Tie Niu.

This time is different from the last time, the Qi family is extremely enthusiastic, from Qi Gong, Qi Xu, and more than a dozen children of the Qi family's lineage, all of them are greeted at the bottom of the mountain, and a special sedan chair is prepared.

Qi Gong looked kind, saw Hongchen, and hugged his fists from afar: "It's good that the county lord is here, it's good to come, the cold house is really full of brilliance, hurry, Xu'er doesn't hurry up to make amends to the county lord, you kid is so rude, people are magnanimous and don't embarrass you, quickly kowtow to the county lord to make amends." ”

Qi Xu stood on the side of the road, his face covered with a layer of blue-gray, and he was also carrying a thorn strip on his back, obviously planning to play a game of thorn pleading.

However, his expression was a little numb, as if he was thinking about perfunctory, but the corners of his eyes and eyebrows were not completely without guilt.

Hongchen's eyes flashed, and looking at the black qi above his head, a little sigh appeared on his face.

Before she could speak, a seventeen or eighteen-year-old girl appeared behind her, glaring at her: "Uncle, I think you are old and confused, what did the eldest brother do, you want him to ask for guilt, I don't care what kind of county lord or county lord this guy is, she ran to our house to toss, making a lot of trouble, and now the mountain protection array has not recovered, even if we don't scold her, even if we have a good temperament, we are embarrassed to accept the courtesy of the eldest brother......"

"I said, little girl, I see that you and your brother are covered with dark clouds, so you should pay less attention to yourself, and be careful of disasters from the sky."

Hongchen shook his head.

"Look, uncle, listen to it, what kind of people are these, they curse people when they exit, just like her, who doesn't know the origin, and will only be abducted and deceived, the court is a county lord, I think, this court is also confused......"

Before the words fell, there was a clang.

"Ouch!"

With a loud bang, Qi Gong was startled, and hurriedly reached out to help and dragged the little girl up from the ground.

The others also rushed up, shushing the cold and asking for warmth, checking the wound, the little girl had a head and blood on one end, she screamed in fright, hugged her face and cried, "Are you disfigured?" Disfigured? ”

"No, no, don't be afraid."

Qi Gong whispered to her, "It's okay, it's okay." ”

Hongchen shook his head with a sad face: "I have already said, be careful of disasters from the sky, I think you should not go around in the future, and go back to the room honestly, otherwise I am afraid it will not be just a matter of broken head and bleeding." ”

The little girl avoided the red dust with a wary face, her eyes showed a little fear, and she muttered quietly: "Crow's mouth!" ”

Seeing the frightened look, it seemed that she was afraid that Hongchen would give her a curse or something, so she turned her head and ran away, avoiding Hongchen from afar, but she ran two steps, her feet were empty, and she only heard a scream, and the child stumbled into the ravine next to her.

Qi Gong was dumbfounded.

The others instinctively glanced back at Hongchen.

Hongchen looked innocent: "It has nothing to do with me, the Qi family has a foundation, and they don't really believe that I can put a curse on a strange little girl out of thin air." ”

"Where to talk, where to talk, the county lord is really joking."

Qi Gong whispered in a hoarse voice, his voice was dry, and the others also laughed.

After a long time of not hearing the voice of the little girl, everyone came back to their senses, hurriedly went down to save people, and brought her up for a long time, but the little girl was full of unkempt hair, covered with bruises, especially two more cuts on her face, so scared that she didn't even dare to cry, for fear of leaving scars, she spoke softly, and no longer dared to make loud noises, a mouth could pull the wound, she was afraid that she would leave a scar when she died.

Everyone carried her, Hongchen also got on the sedan chair, closed her eyes and recuperated when she went up, and fell asleep in a drowsy, not worried at all.

If the Qi family really dared to harm the lord of Rong'an in broad daylight, Hongchen would also be willing to say his admiration under Jiuquan, it is estimated that it will not be long before this family will come down to accompany the funeral, not afraid that no one will say it.

The porter who carried the sedan chair was very fast, and the person who carried it was not slower than the person who often climbed the mountain, and when he arrived at Qi's house, it was not yet dark.

Qi Gong respectfully invited Hongchen into the door, and saw that there were already guests who had arrived, and introduced each other.

The old man didn't deliberately introduce Hongchen, after all, he didn't know if she wanted to be known, but he still hinted that she was a member of the court.

Everyone looked at Hongchen very strangely, mainly because this girl's painting style was too different, a little strange.

The people who came to congratulate the old man Qi on his birthday, except for the children of the same hidden family, most of them were spirit masters, after all, the Qi family had also produced several outstanding spirit masters before, and their family's mountain protection array is now one of the most famous formations in the Great Zhou.

The people of the court would come, no one could have imagined it.

Qi Gong welcomed everyone in and sighed: "Hey, you are willing to appreciate the light, Qi is grateful, my age, most of my feet have stepped into the Yellow Spring, my birthday can't pass, it doesn't matter, but the children want to give me a lively and lively life, I just want everyone to see one side and one side, and take this opportunity to get together, which is also a good thing." ”

The guests comforted each other.

Qi Gong shook his head, "Also, Qi has one more thing to ask for, and I want you to help me choose an auspicious acupoint...... I've also reached the age when I have a coffin ready for burial, and it's best to be buried in a good place, which may be of some benefit to our family. ”

Everyone was silent for a moment, and their hearts were not very happy, the Qi family was indeed not good, but no one on the face refused to mention it, the old man was popular, had a wide range of contacts, and was righteous, everyone respected him very much, and no one wanted to embarrass him. (To be continued.) )
