Chapter Seventy-Three: The Chen Family's Past

When the topic opened, I couldn't stop it.

Under the narration of the short and fat old ghost, Chen Hao learned about the rise and fall of the Chen family decades ago.

At that time, the Chen family was indeed a small landlord who had been accumulated by several generations of hard work, and when it came to the generation of Chen Hao's grandfather, he stood out from the toiling masses and became a well-known Chen master.

The family has surplus food, eating and drinking without worry, naturally considering the great cause of inheritance, Master Chen also lived up to the expectations of his ancestors, married a wife and a concubine, and gave birth to four sons and three daughters, which can be called the leading stallion in the local area.

However, blessings and misfortunes are unpredictable, and things backfire.

Just when Master Chen's children grew up and became talents, and Master Chen felt that the Chen family could take another step forward, something big happened to the Chen family.

It was the birthday banquet of Mr. Chen's 50th birthday, and Mr. Chen originally planned to take this opportunity to push his eldest son to the front desk and take over the family's business.

Well, the eldest son gave him a surprise first, ran away from home, and left only a unique letter, saying that he was taking his third brother to participate in that, and if he didn't succeed, he became a benevolent.

Master Chen was so angry that he vomited blood and fell into a coma.

He was a thousand admonitions, ten thousand instructions, don't get involved in this matter, who knows that the eldest son has one thing on the surface, and another set in private, and actually gave him a knife on his big happy event.

Not only that, let's go, but also brought the third son who is the best reader and seems to be the most promising among the seven brothers and sisters of the Chen family.

This is not only a cheat on himself, but also a way to cut off the Chen family's progress!

Angry, Master Chen left that night, and a good happy event turned into a funeral.

After his death, Master Chen was so angry that he naturally resisted the reincarnation and witnessed his burial and the civil strife of the Chen family.

In just half a year, the Chen family, which was originally beautiful, no longer exists, and the family business is even more fragmented, which has become a topic of conversation after tea and dinner. Master Chen was originally resentful, and he almost turned into a ghost.

But one person's behavior made Master Chen lose his way and return home, and he was a ghost with peace of mind from then on.

That person is Master Chen's fourth son, Chen Hao's grandfather.

Because when several of Master Chen's children fought over the family property, only Chen Hao's grandfather did not worry about the family property, but silently chose to keep filial piety for Master Chen for three years.

Chen Hao's grandfather's filial piety touched Master Chen, and since then he has watched the Chen family collapse, his wife and concubines and children have sold their property, and they have gone their separate ways, and then silently watched Chen Hao's grandfather rebuild the Chen family by himself.

After that, Chen Hao also heard about it, grandpa was too tired in his early years, leaving a sickness, and finally when Chen Hao was more than three years old, Chen Hao's grandfather died of illness, and the next year, Chen Hao's grandmother was also overly sad and followed.

Now that he learned about the past from his grandfather, Chen Hao was also speechless.

I didn't expect that my ancestor was still a landlord.

Tut-tut, speaking of which, when I was studying, I saw the story of Yang Bailao, and I secretly cursed it, but now that I think about it, I feel so fucked.

"That, grandpa, what about after that, how are the eldest grandfather and the third grandfather? And those elders, I've never heard my father talk about them. Chen Hao asked curiously.

Master Chen sneered: "What is there to say, what can we participate in?" As soon as the two unfilial sons left, there was no news, and it is estimated that they have died on a battlefield. Speaking of the past, Master Chen's face was full of anger and regret, the third son was the person he really pinned all his hopes on, and he was cheated by the eldest son.

Chen Hao comforted: "Grandpa don't be too sad, at least, our Chen family has not broken its roots, you must know that in that era, many families were broken and broken." ”

Master Chen glanced at Chen Hao and said, "These things have passed for decades, and I have already let go of them, but it is you who let me see the hope of the rise of the Chen family." ”

Chen Hao was embarrassed, why did you talk about me again? I am different from you, you are a big landlord, I am a cultivator, the development route is different, this life can provide for my parents to the end, to ensure a worry-free life, I will be satisfied, the rest, just let it be.

"Haha, grandpa has won the award, this year is not as good as before, everyone is doing well, there is no need to toss too much, as long as there is no shortage of food and drink, and I don't worry about money, I think it's okay, right?"

Old Man Chen looked like an old fox, and said with a smile: "Don't refuse in a hurry, you have this ability, sooner or later you will be prosperous, and you will not be able to help it then." ”

Chen Hao: "......"

You have a point, and I can't argue with it at all.

Cuckoo! Cuckoo!

At this moment, amid the sound of the rooster, the rooster also walked into the old house of the Chen family, sticking his head and looking around, as if looking for Chen Hao.

Chen Hao was about to say hello, but Master Chen was shocked: "This is your chicken?" ”

The corners of Chen Hao's mouth twitched, and his face was full of black lines.

What do you call my chicken, can you add a word? Anyway, he is also a landlord, and he must speak in style, old man.

"Ahem, this was given to me by someone else, because it was a little strange, so I raised it, grandpa knows?" Chen Hao asked curiously.

Speaking of which, in the eyes of the people, chickens are all the same, at most roosters, hens, and eggs, no matter what magic it has, just eat it.

Master Chen took a deep look at Chen Hao and exclaimed: "You kid also grew up with me, I didn't expect that you didn't pay attention to it for a few years, but you actually had such an adventure, not to mention that you have a lot of ability, and you also have a god chicken." It seems that my old Chen family is not only re-emerging, but also may become an immortal sect. ”

Chen Hao was dumbfounded.

What the heck? Immortal Gate? Grandpa, are you really an ordinary person? Do you know too much?

seemed to see Chen Hao's doubts, Master Chen mocked: "That is, this era is different, you have too little contact, in our year, demons and monsters, who doesn't know the point, just say that we talk about this place, there is a Zhenhai Temple, and there were also high-ranking monks sitting in the town." And there is also a snake demon in the town of a high monk here in Tongkou, the true story of the Divine Rooster and the Dragon King, it is estimated that even if you know it now, it is also regarded as a mythical story. ”

Zhenhai Temple? Isn't that the little ruined temple not far from Tongkou Town? When I was a child, I went in to see it, and there was a fierce and evil statue in it, and I was afraid to look at it at the time, but I didn't expect that there were also masters in town?

Chen Hao became interested and hurriedly asked, "Grandpa, tell me about it." ”

Master Chen estimated that he hadn't chatted like this for many years, and he didn't refuse when he heard the words, and talked about something that although he didn't experience it personally, it was also something that happened when he was alive.

It was when the wharf in Tongkou Town still existed, and it was next to the wharf, called Jingnan River.

Hundred miles of Jingnan River, blue and white water dragon king.
