Chapter 7: Returning Home
Qinglong Town is a town located in the southeast corner of the Qinglong Mountains, Qinglong Town is also the only way to enter the Qinglong Mountains, so Qinglong Town is very prosperous, restaurants, shops, inns, teahouses are numerous, the main road on the street is fifty meters wide, can accommodate ten carriages at the same time.
Zhou Ming's home is located in the southwest corner of Qinglong Town, with three courtyards, and the plaque at the door reads the word Zhoufu.
When Zhou Ming arrived at Qinglong Town, it was late at night, and the town was still very lively, so he quietly went home, and no one found it.
The door of Zhou's mansion was not closed, the oil lamp in the living room was still burning, and the faces of the people in the room were full of sadness.
Originally, there were more than a dozen maids and subordinates in the Zhou Mansion to serve, but since it was rumored that Zhou Ming was abolished, those maids and subordinates were all gone, and the Zhou Mansion was nothing without Zhou Ming's aura.
The once beautiful Zhou Mansion is now only three people left, and it looks extremely deserted.
At the top of the living room sat a middle-aged man in cloth clothes, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, resolute facial features, not angry and arrogant, but there was a depression wrapped around his body, which made this middle-aged man who originally looked very tough a little sickly.
This person is the head of the Zhou family, Zhou Ming's father, Zhou Huang!
Sitting in the lower left position of Zhou Huang was also a middle-aged man, who was about the same age as Zhou Huang, with a beard, thick hands and feet, wearing iron armor, and a bloody aura on his body.
However, the man's face was pale, and he coughed from time to time, as if he was wounded.
This person's name is Pang Hu, and he is the housekeeper of the Zhou Mansion, and Zhou Ming calls him Uncle Tiger.
Sitting at the bottom right of Zhou Huang is a little girl in green clothes, the little girl is about ten years old, with two long braids, her big eyes are full of spirituality and intelligence, although she is young, her facial features are very delicate, and she is a beautiful embryo.
This little girl's name is Zhou Qing, and she is Zhou Huang's adopted daughter and Zhou Ming's younger sister.
"The head of the family, I don't believe that something will happen to my son when I kill him, there must be someone here who is doing ghosts. Pang Hu said to Zhou Huang with red eyes, his face full of worry and fear.
Zhou Huang pursed his already chapped lips, stared at the gate with his eyes, and did not speak.
"Childe was originally cultivating well in the Lingxu Cave, how could he suddenly run to Qinglong Mountain. I've already inquired with someone, and Childe didn't go out on a mission to Qinglong Mountain that day. ”
"Childe is calm, calm, and thoughtful, even if he really goes to Qinglong Mountain, how can he provoke a fierce beast, Childe was attacked by a fierce beast, and I don't believe it. ”
"How is it possible to say that Gongzi was attacked by fierce beasts, his dantian was broken, his martial soul was destroyed, and he was reduced to a waste. Gongzi is a supreme genius, a nine-rank martial soul, not only a noble status but also an existence that has the hope of impacting the highest realm, how could it be abolished like this?"
"Childe is young, and he has a nine-rank martial soul, and he is arrogant, if he becomes a waste, how can he withstand such a blow. ”
"It's been a month since I heard from Childe, so I don't know where Childe is now......"
Pang Hu choked up as he spoke, and his eyes were full of tears.
Zhou Qing was already crying, big tears dripping, and he covered his mouth vigorously to prevent himself from making a sound.
"Pang Hu, who came out with the news that Ming'er was attacked and abolished by a fierce beast, have you found it?" Zhou Huang spoke, his voice extremely hoarse.
"Not yet. ”
Pang Hu lowered his head.
"This news came out suddenly, saying that many people saw Gongzi being attacked by fierce beasts in Qinglong Mountain, and the dantian was broken, and this matter spread with noses and eyes. I tried to find witnesses, but the group of people who saw it seemed to have evaporated from the world, and they couldn't find any of them. Pang Hu said in a low voice.
"Master of the house, could this be ...... What did they do?" Pang Hu looked at Zhou Huang and hesitated.
"They?" Zhou Huang muttered as he lowered his head, closed his eyes, and shook his head.
"It doesn't matter who sees it, the important thing is that everyone believes that Ming'er has become a waste. The trees fell and scattered, and even the maids and subordinates in the house left. ”
"Ming'er is our hope, without Ming'er, Zhoufu is ...... A bunch of shit. ”
"Lingxu Cave, hey, I learned that Ming'er was abolished, and I didn't say that I would avenge Ming'er, but I came out as soon as possible to make an announcement to remove Ming'er from Lingxu Cave, which is really chilling. ”
Zhou Huang hoarsely voiced, his body trembled, and he couldn't hide his anger and sadness.
"Those brutes, the head of the family usually treats them so much, and when the Zhou Mansion was in danger, he chose to run away as soon as possible, and his conscience was really eaten by dogs!"
Pang Hu scolded, extremely angry and emotional, making him cough violently.
"When Childe was at home, those bastards saw Childe's future and came to show their goodwill. Now that Childe has an accident, all of them turn their faces and don't recognize people, which is really hateful. ”
"In just one month, more than half of the property of our Zhou Mansion was robbed, and even the last restaurant and inn were robbed by the Li family this morning, and they were riding on the head of our Zhou Mansion to. ”
"Family master, our Zhou Mansion has been bullied so much, why don't I go and fight with that group of bastards, if I can kill one, I will earn it by killing two. ”
Pang Hu said excitedly.
"Pang Hu, don't act rashly. ”
Zhou Huang shook his head and rejected Pang Hu's proposal.
"If the industry is snatched, it will be snatched, it's not a big deal, I still have savings here, enough for our next expenses, and now the most important thing is to find Ming'er. Zhou Huang said in a deep voice.
"At the foot of Qinglong Mountain, I have already searched for Qinglong Town and even Qinglong City, but I haven't found Gongzi. ”
Pang Hu said angrily, and punched the wooden table, directly piercing the wooden table.
"Su Yu and Zhao Hui have the best relationship with Ming'er, is there any news about them?" Zhou Huang asked.
"I went to the Su family and the Zhao family in Qinglong City, and those guards didn't let me in at all, and that group of people turned their faces faster than they turned books, so they turned their faces and didn't recognize people. ”
Pang Hu's face was angry and extremely aggrieved.
"I didn't hear from Su Yu and Zhao Hui, they seem to have disappeared too, will Gongzi be with the two of them?" Pang Hu said.
"Ming'er is too emotional, extremely honest with these two people, without the slightest defense, if these two people want to kill Ming'er, Ming'er can't escape at all. Zhou Huang looked worried.
"Those two bastard boys look honest on the surface and obey their son's orders, but in fact, the city is terrifying, and they are from Qinglong City. I reminded Childe about this, but Childe couldn't listen to him. Pang Hu sighed.
"Is there any explanation in the Lingxu Cave?" Zhou Huang tightened his face.
"They just said that every year there will be disciples dying outside, which is a normal thing. Pang Hu said sadly.
"Ming'er has the best relationship with Su Yu and Zhao Hui, especially that Su Yu, Ming'er knows everything about her, Su Yu must know Ming'er's whereabouts. Zhou Huang said in a deep voice.
"I went to find the Su family, but others didn't even let me enter the door, and I couldn't see Su Yu. Pang Hu clenched his fists, extremely uncomfortable.
"It's to be expected that we don't have the strength to be bullied, tomorrow you go to Lingxu Cave, Su Family, and Zhao Family to inquire about Ming'er's whereabouts, if they still refuse to tell each other, we will go back to the dynasty." For the sake of Ming'er, I don't want this face. Zhou Huang closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, his eyes were full of determination.
"You have to see people in life, and you have to see corpses in death!" Zhou Huang gritted his teeth.
"Head of the family......" Pang Hu's eyes were red, and his whole body trembled.
......
"Dad, Uncle Tiger, Qingqing, I'm back!" Zhou Ming shouted into the courtyard.
"Ming'er, Ming'er, it's Ming'er who is back!" Zhou Huang suddenly got up, and tears flashed in his tiger eyes.
"Childe, it's Childe, Childe is back!" Pang Hu shouted, tears rolling down.
"Brother Ming, Brother Ming......" Zhou Qing cried and ran out quickly.
