Liu Fan's palm, holding the ring, began to sweat.

He has lived for more than 40 years, and for the first time, he has this kind of heart-pounding feeling.

Liu Pan suppressed his mind, shook his head, and when he came back to his senses, the feeling of being on the edge of the abyss just now disappeared, he lifted his spirits, frowned and glanced at the cloth-clothed young man, and said coldly: "The third elder has a life, I must take this ring away, if you have any objections, you can go to the family hall." ”

He Qing's lips pursed slightly like a blade, the depth in his eyes became darker and darker, and on his arms under the sleeve robe, there were strange black lines quietly drilling out from under the robe.

At this moment, a big hand suddenly grabbed Liu Fan's wrist, and the power was so great that Liu Pan snorted in pain and couldn't help but let go of his palm.

"...... you find"

Liu Pan roared at the figure that appeared on the side at some point, but he swallowed in horror as soon as the words came out.

He Qing was right. ”

The middle-aged man let go of the big hand that was clamping Liu Fan, and said lightly: "They can give you this thing, but you can't grab it." ”

Liu Fan's face was ugly, rubbing his already red wrist, and he said in a low voice: "This matter is the third elder'......"

The man threw the ring on his hand to He Qing, and then said casually: "If there is any problem, you let Liu Wu come to me by himself." ”

Liu Pan was silent, turned around and left without a sound, don't talk about himself, even if the three elders Liu Fu stood here today and confronted the person in front of him, I am afraid that he would not be able to please him.

Because he is the most outstanding collateral clan member within the four generations of the Liu family.

Liu Chunchen.

"Spring ......"

Liu Qing subconsciously wanted to shout, but changed his tone and said bitterly: "Law enforcement elder, thank you." ”

Liu Chunchen's face did not change, since he soared from the side clan twenty years ago, his relationship with everyone has gradually become distant, this is not his reason, but with the change of status, these clansmen who used to get along day and night have begun to fear him.

The giggling, mischievous boy in Liu Qing's memory has been replaced by the calm and majestic middle-aged man in front of him.

Liu Chunchen sat on the stool, stared at the ring on the table, shook his head slightly, and said, "The husband is not guilty. ”

Liu Chunchen looked at Liu Qing and said seriously: "This ring is not a blessing for you now, there are too many people in the clan who are worried about it." ”

"I know. ”

Liu Qing, who was full of old age, said softly: "Elder, you tell me the truth, is it possible for Qing'er to recover?"

A middle-aged man dressed in luxurious silk interlaced his fingers and was silent.

He Qing patted the old man's shoulder and comforted: "It's okay, Uncle Qing, didn't you say that you want to find a daughter-in-law, I will find a good job in a few days, and then let's go and find a girl who is virtuous and patronizes the family, we will live the next life in peace and stability, so why not live a hard life." ”

The old man just stared at the middle-aged man who was now famous on the other side.

The old man finally said the title that he hadn't shouted for more than ten years: "Chunchen ......"

The middle-aged man strained his fingers.

"If that's really not possible, then you can take this ring with you. ”

The old man's figure became more and more rickety, and he said slowly: "I had an argument with your father back then, I chose to go out with half of my family's life savings, and your father was not willing to go the same way as me, he chose to smash all his savings on you to help you cultivate, your father said, a lifetime of doing nothing, life is also in vain, as long as there is a glimmer of life, he is willing to fight for you, he fought right, but unfortunately he failed to enjoy your blessings." ”

The old man laughed at himself: "I made the same choice as your father four years ago, but no one expected this. ”

The young man standing beside the old man lowered his head.

For the sake of an elixir, the old man rummaged through the boxes and cabinets and sold the property.

For the sake of a cultivation place with a stronger spiritual power, the good old man who had never blushed with anyone in his life quarreled with his clan for the first time.

For the sake of this unrelated adopted son, the gray hair on the old man's head could have been much less.

The middle-aged man seemed to see his father in the old man.

The middle-aged man sighed in his heart, and finally spoke: "Third uncle......"

The old man's body trembled, how long has it been, how long has it been since he heard this name.

Liu Chunchen said in a deep voice: "There is no possibility of recovery from the fact that the meridians are broken, at least we have not heard of it in Baishan City, but Quzhi Academy is different, in the entire Qingyan County, Quzhi Academy is among the best, and there will be no way to precipitate it for hundreds of years." ”

Ecstasy welled up on the old man's face.

"Just ......"

Liu Chunchen sighed and said: "The biggest problem now is that with He Qing's current state, even if he goes to Quzhi Academy, I'm afraid it will be difficult to pass the entrance assessment, he can't cultivate now, and he can't even enter the door." ”

The old man was silent.

After a while, it seemed that the old man, who had aged a few years all of a sudden, picked up the ring on the table, folded it into a square with a cloth, and pushed it from the table to the middle-aged man.

Liu Chunchen was helpless.

A slender palm pressed against the back of the old man's dry hand.

The old man turned his head and looked at the young man in a daze, who had a bright smile on his face.

He Qing took the cube, took out the ring, stared at it for a while, and grinned: "Elder, if I hand over this ring, who will the clan give it to?"

Liu Chunchen hesitated, and then said in a deep voice: "Quzhi Academy only holds an enrollment once in five years, and it is still one year away from the last enrollment, so this ring should be the strongest in the younger generation of the current clan except for Liu Xiang and the others." ”

Liu Chunchen slowly spit out three words: "Liu Changshan." ”

He Qing sighed, and then put the turquoise ring on his right index finger.

The old man stopped talking.

Liu Chunchen stared at He Qing and said, "I don't think you're the right choice. ”

"You have no hope of re-enrolling, so even if there is a possibility of recovery, you can't win it, let alone whether there will be a next move in the clan, for a non-existent and illusory opportunity, you will offend some people in the clan again, with you now, you can't bear the consequences. ”

Liu Chunchen looked at this young man who had been wandering outside for four years and had endured all the hardships of life very seriously, and said, "He Qing, choose rationally. ”

The old man who had been insisting on it before was finally shaken, and Liu Chunchen's words smashed into his heart like a heavy hammer.

Many things don't depend on hard work, hard work, and fighting again.

"Peaceful, secure. ”

The old man got up and said, "Ask for a stable one, that's it, that's it." ”

An extremely bright smile suddenly appeared on the young man's well-defined little face, he helped the old man, looked directly into the old man's eyes, and said, "Uncle Qing, do you believe me?"

The young man pointed outside, pointed to the entire Li family, or to the entire Baishan City, and said, "I want you to sit in the highest position, the two of us, we will never live like this again." ”

"I, He Qing, here, swear. ”

The corners of the old man's eyes were a little moist.

Four years ago, when He Qing was tested for second-grade talent, he was also so high-spirited.

Liu Chunchen got up silently and left.

When I was young, I always had infinite passion and ambition, but the ruthless life and reality would crush all this, and when everything calmed down, I would remember that what I said and did was just naïve.

He Qingmu sent Liu Chunchen away.

The old man took out a dry tobacco from the cabinet and walked to the gate of Liu's house in the distance.

He Qing sat back in his chair.

The old man's words were as deeply imprinted in his heart as a knife.

"I really hope you can make a difference. ”

"Get ahead. ”

"Don't mention being admired, but at least you don't have to look at people's faces......"

"Good...... What?"

He Qing's fingers tapped the cooled tea in the cup, and stroked on the old Eight Immortals table covered with nicks.

The water trail evaporates quickly.

"Good. ”

He Qing muttered to himself at this moment.

"Uncle Qing, they won't look up to me, but they will fear me. ”

"From now on, no one will be able to point fingers in front of us anymore. ”

"Anything you want, I'll do it. ”

The corners of He Qing's mouth were raised, but he was unusually unruly.

"I, He Qing, am a disaster. ”
