Chapter 8: Uninvited Guests
The family motto of the Chu family advocates frugality, and Chu Qi, as the third son of the patriarch, also lives in such a small courtyard with three rooms in the main house, and there are only two servants, one is Uncle Liu, who is responsible for cleaning the yard, and the other is Aunt Liu, who is responsible for cooking.
More than ten years ago, Chu Qi saw Uncle Liu and Aunt Liu begging for food so far, they were very pitiful, and Aunt Liu made a good dish, Chu Qi took them in, and they lived in a house next to the foyer, only responsible for cooking and doing what they could, and got along very well with Chu Qi's family.
It can be said that Uncle Liu and Aunt Liu grew up watching Chu Yang, except for their parents, Chu Yang is the closest to these two old people.
Dinner was held in a harmonious atmosphere of the family, and two years after Chu Yang's illness, the warm atmosphere returned to the family of three.
After the meal, Chu Yang returned to his room and continued to cross his legs to consolidate the mysterious energy that had just stabilized.
Early the next morning, Chu Yang resumed his previous morning training and began to practice "Emperor Heavenly Sword Duel" and "Sword Shaking Duel".
Chu Yang has a plan for himself, knives and swords are the first weapons, and while fully considering his strong strength and choosing to use a knife, he also wants to find another way and practice swordsmanship at the same time.
During this time, Chu Yang also often went to Tie Cheng, Tie Cheng's nickname Dacheng was his friend who played since he was a child, and his father Chu Yang called him Uncle Tie, a famous blacksmith in Chujiabao, Uncle Tie was a mute, but he would tell Chu Yang about the characteristics of weapons through Tie Cheng.
Time passed quietly, and Chu Yang basically used this time to complete everything he wanted to do in the past two years of illness.
While Chu Yang was living peacefully, an earth-shattering conspiracy began to ferment in this river valley area and even the whole world, and this family that had not liked to fight for thousands of years finally showed his fangs.
In the blink of an eye, another month had passed, and Chu Yang had completely mastered this mysterious energy, and his combat power had been further stabilized.
On this day, a team of people quickly entered Chujiabao and broke the tranquility of this castle.
This team of people and horses are all wearing black robes, riding black horses, led by an old and a young who look a little similar, urging the war horses in a hurry, entering the castle without the slightest slowdown, the war horses galloped past, passers-by all dodged, and many people who had no time to dodge were knocked down, and there were bursts of coercion, and the oppressive people were breathless.
"Who are these people?" said one of the people who was knocked over.
Everyone shook their heads.
But there are also people who have been out of the fort who seem to think of something, frown slightly, think for a moment and say: "Look at the clothes seem to be from Luojiabao." ”
"What! Luojiabao?!" The rest of the people suddenly burst into a commotion when they heard this, although the people who lived in Chujiabao had never been out of the realm of this Chu family, but they had definitely heard of the prestige of this Luojiabao, or the name of the murderer was more accurate.
When the group arrived at the entrance of the ancestral hall, they quickly tightened the reins of the horses, and the guards at the door had already seen it and hurriedly went in to report it.
The people of the Chu family who got the news, led by the patriarch Chu Dingshan, walked quickly to the door to greet them.
When Chu Dingshan saw the comer, he hurriedly stepped forward and greeted him with a smile: "Luo Er's family has come to the castle, and he has never greeted him from afar, I hope to forgive me!"
The old man on the other side also greeted him with a smile on his face, and returned the salute: "Where is the old patriarch of Chu, Luo Mou is uninvited, he is already disturbed, where do you dare to bother the patriarch to greet him!"
This team of people is the people of Luojiabao, led by Luo Tong, the second leader of Luojiabao, and the younger one is Luo Tong's own grandson Luo Fang. This Luojiabao is a big fort in the Hangyang River Valley second only to Xiongyuan Fort, and it is comparable to Chujiabao in terms of strength, but because Chujiabao does not like to fight, this Luojiabao is more famous than Chujiabao.
This group of people entered the main hall in the front yard of the ancestral hall under the guidance of Chu Dingshan, and sat down according to the guest and host, Chu Dingshan, the patriarch of the Chu family, Chu Yuanshan, Chu Lie, Chu Xiong, Chu Qi and others were present, and the Chu family, including Chu Ming and Chu Yang, also stood behind the elders;
After sitting down, there are people to watch the tea.
Chu Dingshan picked up the teacup and blew it gently, then put down the teacup, and then said with a smile: "I don't know what happened when Luo Er's family came to the castle?"
After hearing this, Luo Tong looked at Luo Fang beside him, and then said with a smile: "Don't hide it from the old patriarch, our Luo family will come to the door personally this time to bring a good news for both you and me." After speaking, Luo Tong stopped, smiled slightly, picked up the teacup, and sold the guanzi.
Chu Yang stood behind his father, frowning, this time Luo Tong's arrival was probably not good, and he moved Luojiabao out in the first sentence, and said that he came in person, which made it clear that he had given Chujiabao enough face.
"Oh, if there's any good news, let's hear it. Chu Dingshan smiled faintly, how could he not hear the meaning of Luo Tong's words.
Luo Tong put down the teacup and pointed to Luo Fang beside him and said softly: "This child is 19 this year, and he is the son of my eldest son Luo Qiong, called Luo Fang. Later, as soon as the child told his father, Luo Qiong informed the eldest brother and me about the matter, and we put it together, which is a good thing, firstly, my grandson is also a talent, and has reached the middle of the seventh level of combat power; ”
When Chu Dingshan heard this, he looked at his second son, Chu Xiong, and then said, "Oh, there is such a thing?"
Luo Tong then said: "After this matter was agreed, the eldest brother was very happy, and immediately sent me to Guibao to propose marriage, patriarch, you see, once you and I become in-laws, we will definitely attack and defend as one, and I dare not say that in this Hangyang River Valley alone, who else dares to compete with our forts?"
Chu Yang really understood the meaning of this old guy at this time, it turned out that this Luo Fang was worried about Sister Chu Yue.
In addition to the city lord's mansion in Hanging Yang City, the major forts and forces all have their own industries in the city, among which Xiong Yuan Fort and Luojiabao have the largest business, and this Luo Tong is responsible for Luojiabao's business in Hanging Yang City.
The Chu family also has a lot of industry in the city, the second elder Chu Wangshan is in charge, but it is Sister Chu Yue who takes care of the business on the surface, the second uncle Chu Xiong has a son and a daughter, the eldest son Chu Liang has an extraordinary talent in martial arts, and he reached the seventh level of combat power at the age of 14, but for some reason Chu Liang suddenly disappeared when Chu Yang was sick, and there was no news;
