Chapter 5 Family Assembly

After eating the noodles, Jiang Lan and Jiang Yun didn't stay in the city for too long, holding hands and walking out of the city towards home.

Because the road was not too far, the two of them returned home after a while, and at this time, the two of them had no idea of playing again, Jiang Lan touched Jiang Yun's little head and returned to his room.

Jiang Yun did not return to his room, but went to the backyard to find Jiang He and Jiang Wei who were playing chess, that is, Jiang Yun's father and grandfather.

"Grandpa, Daddy, I want to ask you a question. Jiang Yun's expression was a little heavy, which made the two of them feel a twitch after seeing it, because they had never seen such an expression on this little boy's face.

"Yun'er, what's wrong?" Jiang Wei's kind face revealed distress, and he hurriedly asked.

"Grandpa, I want to know how I can cultivate!" the little boy raised his head and looked at the old man, with a gritty look in his eyes that should not be at this age.

Jiang He and Jiang Wei's eyes widened at the same time at this moment.

"What the hell is going on?" Jiang He frowned slightly

Jiang He immediately told the two of them everything that happened today.

"It's too much deception!" Jiang He was furious when he heard the boy's words, and slapped his palm on the stone table beside him, only to see that the solid stone table and the chessboard on the table instantly burst and turned into powder.

"Doesn't this Zheng family feel that he can do whatever he wants with his position as the head of the five major families?" Jiang Heqi's eyes were red, when could the Jiang family, which was also one of the five major families, be at the mercy of others?

"Yun'er, don't worry, Dad will definitely find a way to detoxify you!" Jiang He said to Jiang Yun with some trembling.

Jiang Yun nodded vigorously after hearing this, and ran back to the room, his father's angry look was too terrifying, he didn't dare to stay there for a minute longer.

"This extremely cold poison is the first strange poison in the world, and few people have been infected with it since ancient times, but everyone who is infected with it is all shriveled up in the meridians and broken in the sea of qi, and they will not be able to cultivate from now on!" Jiang Wei frowned and sighed.

"Father, this world is vast beyond our imagination, I believe that someone must be able to unravel this poison!" Although Jiang He said this, he did not have the slightest certainty in his heart, so he could only take one step at a time.

Both sighed in their hearts.

...

Two months later.

"Lan'er, why can't you see Yun'er lately, what is he doing?" Jiang Wei asked Jiang Lan, who had seized all the time to cultivate.

"Grandpa, from the last time he came back from the city to the present, Yun'er has been locking himself in the house except for eating and sleeping, as if he wants to absorb the aura of heaven and earth. Jiang Lan said while attacking the wooden man in the courtyard.

"Alas. ”

"Since that incident, this child has no longer had the innocence he had before, and has been replaced by maturity that should not be at this age. I really don't know if it's good or bad for Yun'er. The old man with a kind face sighed in his heart.

"Lan'er, you should rest quickly, tomorrow is the family meeting, you have to rest well!" Jiang Wei shouted at the girl.

Jiang Lan also nodded when she heard this: "I know grandpa, I won't practice for a while!"

...

Early the next morning.

The Jiang family and his party set off early and walked towards the city.

Today's Huiling City is very lively, and the pedestrians on the street with the earth-shattering noise are all surging in one direction at this time, because everyone knows that this five-year family meeting is going to be held in the martial arts arena in that direction.

The arena is a huge square stone building, all made of the finest northern cold stone, which is extremely sturdy and expensive at the same time. In the martial arts arena, the surrounding stands surround the martial arts platform in the field, and in the north of the stands, there is a luxurious main stand, with tables, chairs, benches, and snacks and tea on the table.

At this time, the surrounding stands were already full of spectators, but the five families in the main stand had not yet appeared.

"Look, that's someone from the Zheng family!"

"That's right, that's Zheng Sen, the patriarch of the Zheng family!"

“...”

Following everyone's gaze, the leader of the group was Zheng Sen, the patriarch of the Zheng family, only to see that it was a thin old man, with coldness and disdain in his eyes, and sat straight in the center of the main stand. Behind Zheng Biao, there are two children, one older and one younger, one with arrogance in his eyes, and the other with indifference.

"Brother Zheng, it's really early today!" As soon as the Zheng family took their seats, a loud voice came from behind them.

Zheng Sen looked back, and this person was Li Cang, the patriarch of the Li family.

"Brother Li is not much slower than me. Zheng Sen said with a wicked smile on his face.

After saying hello, the Li family and his party also sat down on the left side of the Zheng family.

After that, the two major families of the Lin family and the Xia family came to sit down one after another, but only the Jiang family did not appear for a long time.

"This Jiang family is such a big one!" Zheng Sen snorted coldly.

"Leader, I don't think so! Their Jiang family has already won the bottom of this family conference five times in a row, I'm afraid they won't dare to come this time!" Li Cang also sneered on the side.

"Dad, Uncle Li, I think the Jiang family can't afford to live too far in the city, I'm afraid they haven't entered the city yet!" The fat-headed and big-eared man behind Zheng Sen also followed the trend and mocked, looking quite proud.

"It's coming, it's coming! The Jiang family has finally arrived!"

"This Jiang family is really magnificent, let so many people wait for them!"

“...”

With the arrival of the Jiang family, voices of dissatisfaction came out of the stands, but most of these people were wealthy businessmen and bureaucrats, and most of the people still looked at the Jiang family and his party with gratitude.

Zheng Sen glanced at the Jiang family who was seated, and then stood up.

"Now that everyone has arrived, then I announce that the family meeting of the five major families in Huiling City will start now!"

Rumble!

After Zheng Sen finished speaking, a large number of cheers broke out in the stands, as if the entire Huiling City was boiling at this time!

"Next, we have invited the city lord of Huiling City, the stone city lord!"

Everyone looked at it, and a middle-aged man in a gorgeous costume walked out with a smile on his face, stood in the center of the stands and waved his hand to everyone, and then signaled to the patriarchs of the five major families one by one, and the patriarchs all stood up to salute in return. These five major families have deep roots in Huiling City, and any city lord who comes to take office must take care of these five major families, otherwise he will not be able to move an inch. And this Shi Zhen is obviously doing a good job.

After Shi Zhen took the stage, he began a heart-warming speech, and everyone in the stands waved their hands, waiting for the first battle to begin.

After Shi Zhen finished speaking, he sat down in the center of the stands and signaled the start of the game.

"After drawing lots, the first game was played by Li Hao of the Li family against Lin Hong of the Lin family. Zheng Sen stood up again at this time and spoke.

After speaking, Li Hao and Lin Hong both jumped into the arena and signaled to each other with fists.
