"With such a large number of bats, you must have raised them on purpose, right?!" Chen Xuan asked.

"Well, I'll admit it. Because I'm an animal trainer, I know how to raise them. ”

"And what are you doing this for?!"

"You don't need to know that much about this......"

"No, I have to know. ”

"A dying man actually told me so much, do you think there is any point in saying that?!" Yuwen Li'er said disapprovingly.

"No, I don't think so. Because I want to know the truth of the facts, wait a moment and decide what I should do with you......"

Chen Xuan's calculation was that when the rescuers arrived in a while, should he give Yuwen Li'er a chance to live, an excuse for him to continue to live.

"It seems that you really have a city. Well, then, I might as well tell you the truth of the facts...... I raise so many bats, in fact, just so that the royal family of our Great Chu Empire can be immortalized......"

"Oh, how so?!"

Chen Xuan smiled coldly in his heart, these chaotic ministers and thieves, don't they just hope that the Great Chu Empire will collapse all day long, when is their hearts so good and soft, and they still hope to be able to consolidate the country forever.

Isn't this the most ridiculous joke in the world?!

"Bats represent blessings, you see, raising so many bats, doesn't it just show a lot of blessings?! Don't you know, you can't turn around, idiot?!"

"So that's what it looks like, it seems that I really underestimated you. ”

"And how do you understand that?, idiot?!"

"Don't you feel scared that you actually killed the whole village for such a ridiculous reason to increase your blessings?!"

"Joke, what am I afraid of?!" Yuwen Li'er's face changed and he asked.

"I'm afraid that you will be punished in the future, it seems that you are really scheming......" Listening to his words, Chen Xuan couldn't help but sigh.

"What do you mean by that?!"

"I mean, you drove the whole village in, not to add any blessings, in fact, your real purpose is to destroy the dragon vein of the royal family of the Great Chu Empire?!"

Yuwen Li'er sneered and said, "Hahaha, it's a big mistake, things are definitely not as simple as you think." If you think so, you can only say that you are indeed a very stupid person. ”

"Whether you're stupid or I'm stupid, you'll find out in a moment. ”

"Oh, is there any way you can turn the tables?!It's you, not ......me, who is asking for help now," Yuwen Li'er said triumphantly.

"How long are your subordinates going to be delayed?!Are they grinding foreign workers, don't you know?!"

"It's my business, not your business......"

"It's indeed your business, look at the fact that you have killed so many people, and when the time comes, I am afraid that not only you, but even your entire big family will suffer with you, don't you feel a little fear?!"

It seems that Chen Xuan's words still played a little bit of a role, because he clearly noticed that Yuwen Li'er's face was not as arrogant and domineering as just now.

"Believe it or not, I have a way to shift the responsibility to your Yimen Chen family......"

"I don't believe it, your evil deeds can't be compared to the eight poles of our righteous Chen family. ”

"Think about it, wait a while, you will suffocate here, and then I will go out and report your evil deeds to the court...... Let's just say that your righteous Chen family gathered a crowd to deliberately rebel, and then this basin of sewage will just be poured on your heads......?!

Chen Xuan sneered and said, "Even if you want to slander us, you have to tell a piece of evidence." ”

"It's hard to say if you want proof. You guys...... The corpses of you are the best proof of this. It is because of you that you drove all the people of this entire Wangjia Village in, destroyed the dragon veins of the royal family, and then killed them all...... As a result, some of you did not run out, and you were punished alive. How about it? I still make sense of this?!" Yuwen Li'er asked proudly.

"I think you're still rejoicing too soon, there's something you didn't expect. ”

"Which point?!"

"Motivation. ”

"Your motive is to rebel. ”

"Our Yimen Chen family, our ancestors have lived here for hundreds of years, but they want to rebel after a good life? I'm afraid you don't even believe it when you say it yourself, do you?!"

"How dare you quibble when you are dying! I tell you, you do have this motive. Recently, the imperial court has completely dismantled your entire extended family, so some of you have a deep grudge against the imperial court. I'm here to find your genealogy and to apprehend some of your thieves......"

"So, you kid is doing the right thing for heaven?!"

"So what? aren't you convinced?!"

"I think you'll be shooting yourself in the foot......"

"Since you say that, I don't want to say anything more, because I don't want to say another word about it. ”

As the saying goes, if you don't speculate for more than half a sentence, Shangguan Li'er and Chen Xuan are in a face-to-face stalemate.

The whole cave is a dead silence, faint, all people can hear, not far away from the cave top wall of the dripping sound, huge stalagmites stretching down from the top wall, forming a variety of strange shapes.

Chen Jiageng in the enchantment is worried at this moment, because after the Yimen Condor went out to move the rescue soldiers just now, there has been no news until now.

Could it be that something went wrong in the middle of the road that led to the current situation?!

It stands to reason that even if you climb, you should have to climb there.

So what's going on?!

Chen Jiageng felt puzzled, and in the midst of depression, his eyes suddenly lit up.

hurriedly asked Chen Fangguo next to him, "I ask you something, you must tell me honestly......"

"What's the matter, Brother Chen?!"

"Chen Jiao. ”

"What's wrong with Chen Jiao?!"

"Does Chen Jiao have a grudge against him?!"

Chen Fangguo's face changed, he thought for a while and said, "Look at what you say." If there is a grudge, I think it should be...... More or less a little. But her father's death was not caused by Chen Xuan himself. ”

"So his father is dead?!"

"At least I think so. From the perspective of the entire big family, Chen Jiao's father, Chen Jun, what he did was enough to be punished with family law. Although he is the second elder of our Yimen Chen, he is the second person in the Eight Classics. However, if he violates the family law, he can be punished after the family meeting. ”

"I just heard that Chen Jiao's father secretly colluded with the eagle dogs of the imperial court and wanted to dedicate their family's genealogy to this person. Don't you know the consequences of doing this?!"

Chen Fangguo nodded and said, "Of course I know this, that is, the entire big family will fall into a catastrophe. ”

"I think I should have killed that girl in the first place, leaving her a scourge. Chen Zhong began to shout.

Chen Jiageng smiled and said, "Brother Chen Zhong, I'm also worried about this. I really regret not reminding Chen Xuan that Chen Jiao shouldn't have been allowed to take the Ji Ruohua sisters to Yimen Chen...... Maybe halfway through, she Chen Jiao may be unfavorable to them. ”

"Speaking of which, this Chen Jiao's cultivation is similar to mine, but she is just one person. No matter what, it may not be able to deal with the two Ji Ruohua sisters. And the cultivation of the two of them is similar to mine...... If you really want to fight, Chen Jiao may not be able to take advantage. But if it's a surprise attack, then I'm afraid it's hard to say. ”

"As the saying goes, you can't have the heart to harm others, and you can't have the heart to prevent people. The Ji Ruohua sisters have grown up in the court since they were children, although they have heard and witnessed the power struggle in the court, but after all, it is a political struggle in the court. Chen Jiao looks like a delicate little woman, who is easily ignored by others. Coupled with her penchant for rhetoric, the two sisters are easily fooled......"

"I don't think it's necessarily, the Ji Ruohua sisters should still have the least vigilance. ”

"By the way, Chen Ba, the great elder of your family, is he still in Yimen Chen?!" Chen Jiageng suddenly asked.

"Yes, what's wrong?!When you were at Xingzi Station, didn't you tell us that our Great Elder wrote you a letter, and you waited for us in advance there?!" Chen Fangguo asked with some confusion.

Chen Jiageng nodded and said, "Yes, yes." It's just that this letter was not sent to me directly by him, it was sent to my immortal master first, and then he personally submitted it to me...... However, he had also written this letter a long time in advance, and it was almost a month now. The above just told me that in view of the changes in the family, he needs to send his son, who is your master, to Xunyang Martial Academy. After I received the letter, I waited for a long time at the Xingzi Post Station according to the scheduled day......"

"Yes, that time was probably the darkest day for our entire family. The three great elders, the dead and the wounded, the running and the crippled......"

"Maybe it's a dead knot for us...... But I'm sure one day we'll get revenge. Don't tell me how hard I feel during the days I waited there...... I waited seven or eight days to get you ......."

"Brother Chen, how knowledgeable are you, what is the fundamental reason why our family is like this?!" Chen Fangguo asked.

Chen Jiageng sighed and said: "The root cause is at the top......"

"You mean at the imperial court?!"

"Yes, the root cause is on it. Today's Great Chu Empire is not the previous Great Chu Empire, it can be said that traitorous ministers are in charge, and the people are not happy. ”

"I heard that it's Ji Ruohua's uncle, the God Emperor...... He now holds the real power of the country, and the real emperors have become puppets?!"

Chen Jiageng nodded and said, "Yes, this kind of thing is almost up and down, and all the people know about it." ”

"Then is there really no one who can deal with him?!"

"Yes, but now we have to wait for the right time. ”

"Who is it?!"

"Far away, close at hand, ...... right in front of you"

Chen Fangguo's eyes lit up and said with a smile: "Could it be that the person you are talking about is yourself?!"

Chen Jiageng smiled and said: "The heavens are entrusted to the people, and they must first suffer their minds and work their hearts...... The person I'm talking about is neither you nor me...... That's him!"

"Oh, I see, you mean our young master. But can he take on such a big responsibility now?!" Chen Fangguo asked with some puzzlement.

"Absolutely. It's just that he still needs some experience now, and your patriarch arranged for the two of you to him, and he has his own considerations, which I also saw in the letter. ”

"What do you see?!"

"Your specialty is some literary style, and you can also be verbal. In my words, there is a certain level of literary cultivation, and the Chen Zhong brothers can also go to martial cultivation...... So having the two of you by his side to assist him is a great blessing for him. ”

"Then why did he put me next to you?!"

"This is very simple, he arranged you next to me, won't there be an excuse to come to me in the future?!"

"I thought he didn't want me and didn't like me...... Chen Fangguo said with some sadness.

"Not really, because we actually live together with each other. ”

"How big is Xunyang City?!"

"It's a very small city, less than two miles in radius, how big are you?! The academy and the martial academy are actually outside the small city, and they are not too far from each other. ”

"Oh, that's how it looks, then I don't care. No wonder he just told me that he didn't look up and look down. Chen Fangguo said with a smile.

"I think it's almost time now, and if we don't, we'll think of something else. ”

Chen Fangguo didn't pay attention to Chen Jiageng's words, but continued to ask: "Then I want to ask again, are the academy and the martial academy next to each other?!"

"Not really. Didn't I tell you just now, the martial academy is at the top of the mountain, and the academy is at the foot of the mountain......"

"Oh yes, say, I've never been far away, and I want to ask...... Is Xunyang City a small mountain town?!"

"Yes, the mountain where the Xunyang Martial Academy is located is a famous mountain in our Great Chu Empire, called Feilai Peak. ”

"Such a nice name is Feilaifeng......"

"Yes, yes, Xunyang Martial Academy is actually in the cave, the name is Immortal Cave, and it is called a Immortal Cave. ”

"That is to say, if I don't go to the academy, then my brother Chen Zhong and I will have to live in the cave with our master?!"

"What's the matter? Isn't it good to live in a cave? It's warm in winter and cool in summer. ”

"I'm just afraid that there are a lot of mosquitoes, right?!"

"This is inevitable, it's to ask where you live, can you avoid mosquitoes?!"

"That's right. Then at the bottom of the mountain of Xunyang Academy, do you also live in a cave?!"

Chen Jiageng was a little embarrassed, smiled, and said, "This is not true. In order to save money, we bought a Yihong Academy in Xunyang Academy, and then the entire academy moved in......"

"What is Yihongyuan?!"

"Well, I'll tell you about it later. ”

The reason why Chen Jiageng spoke a little hesitant was because this Yihong Courtyard was actually a very famous local brothel, but later, the boss of this brothel killed several prostitutes, and then the owner of the brothel got into a lawsuit and was seized by the local government.

Later, the owner of the brothel mortgaged the entire brothel to the government as compensation and a pension for the prostitute.

At that time, the owner of the academy was suffering from the large number of disciples in the academy, and the original place was almost overcrowded, so he went around the city to find out if there was a place to live.

When he passed by the street, he saw the list for sale by the government, and he happily followed, and then found the government manager, got through a little connection, and bought the whole brothel.

Therefore, a large part of Xunyang Academy is actually in the original Yihong Academy, which is why Chen Jiageng is a little ashamed to say it.

"Okay, Brother Chen, then I want to ask one last question now. ”

"Say, it seems that you are a bit verbose. ”

"Well, there's nothing else, it's just how many disciples do you have in your academy now?!"

"Our academy now has more than 20,000 disciples......

"Ah, no, so many people?!" said Chen Jiageng in surprise.

"How is it impossible, our Xunyang Academy is known as the first academy in the world, and the people who come to study in the academy are not all subjects of our Great Chu Empire, almost all the young people in the entire continent have to come to us to study...... When they return to their hometowns, they usually get a half-job. In our countries, scholars are proud to come to our Xunyang Academy to study......"

"Then I am really grateful to Brother Chen for taking me in, and I will definitely study hard when the time comes. Chen Fangguo said gratefully.

Chen Jiageng thought for a while, and then told him, "Your Great Elder told me that your young master must come to us regularly, and I will provide him with the necessary food and lodging so that he can cultivate well...... Otherwise, there will only be Wu Xiu at that time, and I don't know a few big characters, so it's better to go back and kill pigs. ”

The speaker has no intention, but the listener has a heart.

Chen Zhong, who had been silent beside him, listened to Chen Jiageng's words and asked worriedly: "Brother Chen, I have had arthritis since I was a child. You said that if I lived in a cave, I was afraid that my arthritis would not be cured, and it would be difficult for me to get out of bed. Why don't you please do well, tell my young master, exchange me and my brother, I will go to Xunyang Academy, he will stay in Xunyang Martial Academy, what do you think?!"

"If you want to be beautiful and say yes, how can you break your promise. I believe that our young master is not the kind of person who doesn't talk much, and besides, you are not actually blind, wouldn't it be better for you to accompany your master to practice martial arts?!"

If it were someone else, presumably Chen Fangguo's thorny words, anyone who heard it would probably not be able to stand it, but now the obedient person is Chen Zhong, not someone else.

When he heard this, instead of being annoyed, he was a little excited, and began to raise the bar with Chen Fangguo, "I said you kid, you have ulterior motives." When you were in your hometown, you were so good at running out of someone's newlywed couple's room at night, wanting to eavesdrop on other couples' couples...... As a result, he was almost beaten to death...... I think you're really a dog who can't change eating. ”

It seems that this Chen Zhong really doesn't say it, and as soon as he says it, he will really kill his popularity.

Chen Jiageng watched the excitement from the side, wanting to laugh but embarrassed to laugh, thinking that the two brothers had finally settled down, and no one owed much to anyone.

"I said that you are really a good person, in your eyes, what do I do is lustful?!"

"What's wrong? Am I wronging you?! If you're not convinced, let's ask the young master to see if the dirty things you did are true......

"You ......"

Chen Fangguo was really a little old-fashioned, and he rolled up his sleeves and was ready to beat Chen Zhong.

Chen Zhong naturally did not show weakness, took a few steps back, and said to him: "Do you want to fight with me? Count with your own fingers, we have fought since we were children, how many times have you beaten me?!"

Hearing him say this, Chen Fangguo's face suddenly turned red, because what Chen Zhong said was indeed the truth.

The two brothers have been fighting since childhood, whether it is true or joking, Chen Fangguo has almost never taken advantage of him.

"Well, count yourself ruthless. I hope you enjoy the blessings in the cave......"

"You have something to say, you must be hoping that my arthritis doesn't get better, don't you?!"

Chen Fangguo couldn't help but laugh and said: "This is what you said yourself, I never said that I hope your arthritis will not get better." Besides, I also hope that our young master will be able to tide over this difficulty, and in the future, our entire family will rely on him and regain his strength. ”

"Okay, you two don't have to talk about it anymore, your young master is here, I have something to ask him. Chen Jiageng stopped them in time and said.

"Young Master, what did that kid say?!" Chen Fangguo asked.

Because with his cultivation, when the other party spoke a hundred steps away, he, Chen Fangguo and Chen Zhong, would definitely not be able to hear it.

Chen Xuan just nodded, and said lightly: "That kid said that the door was broken by me, and he wanted to find his guards to repair it." But I waited for a long time, but I didn't see his guards coming, so I reprimanded him severely......"

He remembered the cruel words he said when he was scolding that Yuwen Li'er just now.

In fact, Chen Xuan at this moment also felt very annoyed, because his divine eagle had been out for so long, and he hadn't brought the rescuers over, could there be no fraud in this?!

What he can't worry about the most now happens to be what Chen Jiageng is worried about, that is, Chen Jiao, the daughter of Chen Jun, the second elder of Yimen Chen, will regret it and do something despicable after halfway through.

"Brother Chen, you said that we have been waiting for a long time, they should be there soon, right?!" Chen Jiageng asked.

"Wait, if we don't come, then we'll really have to think of something else. ”

"What's the other way?!"

Chen Xuan looked at Yuwen Li'er, who was drinking tea behind him, and said, "The key is in this kid's hand." ”

"But didn't you just say that this door is broken, what's the use of having a key?!" Chen Zhong asked with some puzzlement.

"How are you obedient, I mean the crux of the matter is in him. ”

"Oh, that's what happened, I'm sorry, young master, I'm a very stupid person. Chen Zhong scratched the back of his head and said with some embarrassment.

"Brother Chen, I don't quite understand, how do you say that the key to the problem lies in him?!"

"The reason is very simple, Brother Chen. The initiator of all this is his Yuwen Li'er, as well as the entire huge Yuwen family behind him...... Of course, fundamentally speaking, it is the National Demon God Emperor. These people deserve to be destroyed, but now is the time, and we must still be patient...... Otherwise, we wouldn't have been able to defeat them. ”

"Okay, let's talk about the present, if the rescuers don't come to ......"

"Don't say it, I seem to hear something......" Before Chen Jiageng's words were finished, Chen Xuan hurriedly stopped.

The four people in the enchantment suddenly stopped talking, and each one held their breath, and at the same time looked around one by one, and finally everyone's eyes were focused on the boulder.

Sure enough, in the gap of the boulder, I saw a figure flash, and something floated in from the outside.

When I looked closely, it turned out to be the divine eagle that Chen Xuan had released before, and it had finally returned.

Chen Xuan was immediately overjoyed, and hurriedly stretched out his arms and took the Divine Condor on his shoulder.

It's like seeing a child who has been away from home for a long time, gently stroking the feathers of the Condor, and asking softly: "Diao'er, Diao'er, how did I explain your affairs?!"

When the Condor heard this, he hurriedly attached his mouth to Chen Xuan's ear, muttered something softly, and then suddenly shrank his body, and burrowed into Chen Xuan's body, never to be seen again.

"Young Master, what did Diao'er say?!" Chen Fangguo asked.

"Diao'er told us...... The Great Elder didn't agree to our request......" Chen Xuan said in a calm tone.

"What did you say?!He actually didn't agree to our request?!Then why did he do this?!" Chen Jiageng asked with some confusion.

Chen Xuan shook his head and said, "I don't know much about this, and I can't figure it out, but I seem to understand a truth now......

"Got the point?!"

"In this world, the most reliable person is not others, but yourself...... Let's figure it out ourselves. ”

At this time, Chen Zhong suddenly said: "Young master, don't blame the patriarch. I know everyone's temper, and he will never casually put the whole family in danger. ”

"You mean to say...... If our whole village rushes here...... That will definitely be the same as the men, women, and children in Wangjia Village, who will die here in vain?!"

"I think that's the case, or they'd have already come. ”

"Good brother, you really are my good brother. It seems that I am really smart and confused for a while, such a simple truth, I haven't figured it out yet. Chen Xuan's nose was sour, he patted Chen Zhong's shoulder heavily, and said with emotion.
