In Tongjing, the lanterns are colorful, and the city is full of brilliance when the lanterns are first on.

The Year of the Star is a grand annual festival that falls on the first day of the coldest month of the year, and the day before, every household cannot light a fire, but only eat cold food, commemorating the years when the ancestors struggled to survive.

On the night of the Year of the Stars, there will be a spark official to preside over the fire ceremony, worship the starry sky, gather stars at a fixed star tower in the city, and light the fire lamp.

The fire obtained will be arranged for the children in the city, passed from house to house, all the families are looking forward to it, take the fire and put it into the stove pit, make a fire to cook, and at the beginning of the year, no matter how much, each family will seal some silver money and give it to the fire to ask for a lottery.

In the memory that Chu Xi accepted, Xiao Chu Xi also made a fire, carrying a small lantern to walk the streets and alleys to send fire to the neighbors.

Chu Dong, who was in Tongjing, had received a notice from the Star God Temple a few months ago, and sent a letter early to inform his family of the reunion of the Star Year.

When Chu Xi and the other eight teenagers walked out of the gate of the Star God Temple, dozens of old and young women and children were already waiting at the edge of the square.

"Chubby, dad is here, come and let me see, have you lost weight. ”

"Xi'er, Xi'er, my mother is here, my good boy, suffer. ”

"Xi'er ......"

............

As soon as they saw their children come out, all the family members called out and were very excited.

Chu Xi wanted to roll his eyes, please can you call me by my full name, it's a public place, just a little chubby, there are at least a couple here, and Lin Ruoxi and himself, Xi'er Xi'er can't tell the difference.

In the crowd, the father of the iron bull is a maverick, and he has practiced bronze muscles all year round by striking iron, and he wears a shoulder on a cold day.

Quickly stepped forward to see his grandfather's parents, and the family hugged Chu Xi back to his residence.

was originally a small rich family, and with the congratulatory gifts sent by the major forces, Chu Pojun made a decision and directly bought a house next to the Hundred Battles Academy.

Chu Zhansheng is also a blessing to his son, the military department was directly transferred, and he was arranged to be the captain in charge of the camp in the Tongjing garrison.

The new home is located in Tongjing, where every inch of land is expensive, and it is naturally not as vast as Fengqi City, but it adds a little warmth.

I haven't seen my son for more than a year, Xiao Yi naturally asks long and short questions, and is very concerned, but Chu Pojun smiled indifferently, stroking his beard and staring at Chu Xi.

The new home is lit up and down, and two tables are set up in the middle hall to celebrate the joy of the Chu family and the year of the stars.

In the family of Xingwu, there are no complicated rules, and the treatment of subordinates is also kind and benevolent, Xiao Yi's personal maid is followed, and the housekeeper Chu Zhong and other close people also drink at the same table.

After some excitement, the core of the Chu family gathered in the old man's study.

"Xi'er, I think you also know that the Star God Temple will train you to step into the Star Martial Arts at most, and you will need to choose a force to refine your cultivation in the future, what do you have in mind?"

"Grandpa, I don't have any ideas, I'm still young, I haven't thought about this. ”

In fact, Chu Xi had thought about it, but he was blind to these forces in the Star God Continent, and he didn't want to live under others and become a minion of forces.

"Yes, but take precautions, these things still have to be settled, after grandpa discussed it with your parents, I think you are still better in the army, what do you think?"

"Can a star warrior join the army?"

"Of course, any force will try its best to win over the Star Warriors, but the opponents you face can only be the Star Warriors, this is the rule of the Star God Temple. ”

"Is there any doorway?"

"The power of the Star Warrior is above all living beings, and you are too powerful for ordinary people and ordinary warriors, so the Star God Temple has set an iron law and does not allow the Star Warrior to make a move at will. ”

"Will everyone comply?"

"Of course not, but once it is verified, the Star God Temple will come forward to sanction it, and the means are extremely harsh. ”

"What's Grandpa's reason?"

"Whether it is the martial arts sect or the royal family, the Great Chamber of Commerce and other forces, the star warriors join it to worship and have a respected status, but in the final analysis, they are still driven by people, and the army has less constraints on the star warriors, and they come and go freely, do you understand?"

"Understood, let's settle it first. ”

Chu Xi didn't expect Chu Pojun to think of a place with him, since the army was relatively free, then act according to his grandfather's arrangement first.

"Okay, good, good, the Chu family has been in the army for three generations since your great-grandfather, and in the future, your brothers will also be born in the army, which can be regarded as the foundation of the Chu family's military affairs. ”

Chu Zhansheng was also very satisfied with his son's choice, only Xiao Yi was still a little worried, his son was his mother's heart, and he walked on the martial arts, how could he rest assured that his sword had no eyes.

"Zhan Sheng, you two should retreat first, Dong'er, Xi'er stay, grandpa has something to say to you. ”

Xiao Yi was confused, Chu Zhansheng seemed to have known a long time ago, and left with his daughter-in-law, leaving only the three grandparents.

Turning around and taking out a wooden box that had already been prepared from the cabinet, Chu Pojun opened it gently with extreme caution and took out a book.

"Grandpa, what is this?"

Chu Dong's eyes were sharp, and he couldn't help but ask first, while Chu Xi patiently waited for Chu Pojun's explanation.

"This is the ancestral thing of our Chu family, you are still young, you didn't know it before. ”

"When did it come down?"

"It's not too long, it's my grandfather handed down, and this thing has a great history. ”

"Where did it come from?"

"According to your great-grandfather, he was still young, just a cowherd baby, and your great-grandfather was a medicine picker in the mountains, and it was a time when he went into the mountains to collect medicine that he inadvertently obtained this treasure. ”

"It's just a book. ”

"After listening to me, my grandfather went into the mountains to collect medicine, because he strayed into a deep ravine, so he had to sleep in the mountains at night, hiding in the cave and sleeping until midnight, but was awakened by the sound of a fight. ”

"Fighting in the mountains?"

"Well, to be precise, it was a fight in the air, when several people besieged one person, and all kinds of magical spells lit up the whole sky. ”

"It's the Star Warrior fighting, right?" Chu Xi was a little interested.

"Yes, the besieged people are very powerful, one person fights several people alone, but he has been seriously injured before, and he was joined forces to fight into the mountain forest, but he disappeared strangely, and the popularity of the besieged people was rapidly corrupted, and the mountain forest was almost turned upside down and could not be found. ”

"What about Grandpa Gao?"

He was so far away that he hurried back to the cave when he saw this, but he was so frightened by the sight that he collapsed to the ground, and the besieged man appeared in the cave, but he was also dying of oil. ”

"What about this book?"

The man left it, and he only had time to say a few words before he died. ”

"What?"

"After handing over this book to my grandfather, let him leave quickly, and seal this cave, one day, if the Chu family has a star martial artist, give him this secret book. ”
