Chapter 1: Xingqi
The Qier Mountains are a primitive mountain range of two hundred miles from Qingniu City, there is a big town five miles away from the Qier Mountains, there is a river at the other end of the town, the river water is clear and clear, sparkling in the sun, so the town is called Heyang Town. There is a large manor house in the middle of the town, which is called Luohe Village.
"My lord, it's a boy, congratulations!" said the maid who announced the good news to the middle-aged man who was walking back and forth in the corridor.
Demu is the owner of this manor, with a tall nose, a long face, a beard, a medium height, the captain of the guard of Heyang Town, a one-star fighter, inheriting his grandfather Yu Hui, and enjoying the treatment of a third-class viscount of the Mosang Empire.
"Wow, wow, wow!" came the baby's cry from the hut. A few maids hurriedly carried boiling water into the hut.
"Okay, give a good reward to the midwife. Demu said with excitement on his face, although he was not as ecstatic as giving birth to his first son, but it was also a great joy to have a third son in middle age.
The windows and doors of the hut were closed, and a few candles were lit in the room, and the light was still bright, and on the glittering wooden bed lay a young woman, and next to the woman was a little baby, and the little boy seemed to have a little wooden eyes.
"Lord Viscount, Madame has given birth to a boy, mother and child are safe, congratulations, my lord, the little boy has been fed once. The midwife said to the man of the manor with a flattering face.
After glancing at his midwife, who was looking at him happily, Toki nodded, walked to the bed and lifted the baby's diaper, and after making sure that the baby was really with a handle, Tokuki happily gently put down the boy and walked out of the hut.
Tokumu showed a look of pride and smugness on his face, and thought to himself, "My own cultivation is not comparable to the two elder brothers, but I am better than them to continue the blood of the family, this is the third son."
Although he has not done much, he has three sons, and as long as the achievements of any one of his sons surpass the sons of the two brothers in the future, then he will be able to stand tall in front of them...... What's the name of this son?..." After Tokumu rewarded the midwife, he left with a smile.
Only a few maids remained in the whole cottage, the cottage is newly built, the whole house is brand new, the tables, chairs, beds, wooden cabinets are antique, the bed is the best materials, the whole cottage looks exquisite and gorgeous, but compared to the whole luxurious manor, it is only a small corner of this huge manor.
The newborn baby is the fusion of Mo Tian's remnant soul and the child's soul, and after the fusion, it can only be dominated by the child's soul, and there will be no more Mo Tian in this world, and the child's soul is just the soul that has just been born.
And Mo Tian's trace of remnant soul carried too many memories, too powerful for this newborn little soul, Mo Tian was only able to give up the many experiences and massive knowledge of his monastic career without hurting the child too much, with only a trace of vigilance and the memory of the Xuantian Sutra completely integrated with the child.
Demu is the captain of the guard of Heyang Town, which can be regarded as a fat difference in Heyang Town, because Heyang Town is only a few miles away from the Qier Mountains, so there are often some soul beasts that come out to disturb the people, so the empire will send people to garrison in some small towns near the deep mountains.
Demu has two elder brothers, the eldest brother is a four-star fighter, a third-class earl, who is the captain of the guard team in Qingniu City, and the second brother Dexi, a three-star fighter, who has not joined the empire and does not enjoy aristocratic treatment, is a businessman, and has several big shops in Qingniu City.
Demu became the captain of Heyang Town according to the relationship between his two brothers, and the escort team often went to the surrounding mountains to catch some low-level soul beasts to prevent too many low-level soul beasts on the edge of the nearby mountain ranges from running out to harm the townspeople.
The prey obtained was returned to the army and not handed over to the Empire, and the warrior was paid annually from local taxes for his service.
This is a world where force is supreme, and Tokuki's strength is the weakest among the three brothers, so although Tokuki has a good life in this town, whenever he goes into the city and sees the two brothers, he will always be looked down upon by the two brothers, and even some servants dare to treat themselves slowly.
Every time he enters the city, he has to search for some special products of Heyang Town, and now the only thing that makes Demu raise his head is that his son is more than the two brothers, as long as one of his sons surpasses them, he can be equal to them.
A month later, Sunset Villa welcomed many guests, including merchants from Heyang Town, celebrities and nobles from Heyang Town, some mercenary groups based in Heyang Town, and the mayor of Heyang Town, etc.
These people are here to congratulate Viscount Demu, because this day is the first month after the birth of the baby, commonly known as the full moon, famous nobles like to invite some elders, relatives, nobles to name the little boy, and finally there may be a few doll family affairs.
"Master Li has arrived,"
"The leader of the Ironwood Mercenary Regiment has arrived,"
"The Qiantang merchant group tacitly manages things"
"Firefox Mercenary Group Arrives"
"Viscount Loren has arrived,"
"Ah, fortunately, fortunately, I didn't expect the Mo Steward to come, it's really my Demu's glory," Demu happily said polite words to the Mo Steward, the housekeeper treats the master to deal with other guests, and the Mo Steward is the leader of the Qiantang Business Group in Heyang Town, and the Qiantang Business Group is one of the famous business groups in Liangjiang County.
"Brother Demu is really mighty, he is really alive and well, congratulations on getting a noble son again!"
A rough voice came from this short black old man, don't look at this black old man's reckless face, but everyone in Heyang Town knows that this person is very good, and he is also nicknamed Mo Lao Hei.
"Steward Mo, if you don't get drunk today, I just made a few pots of good wine, and I will taste the tea first," Demu led Mo Laohei across the corridor to the hall, and a maid came over with a teapot.
"Brother Demu is busy going first," said Steward Mo, sitting on the Taishi's chair.
Tokuki smiled at the Black Butler's understanding, and then retreated out of the living room and went to the door to greet the guests.
"Brother Demu, where are you going, come, come, we haven't been together for a long time, Mayor Don't you say it? Tell the housekeeper to greet the guests," the speaker was a middle-aged man in brocade clothes, with two star sword logos on his chest and shoulders, which was the representative of the two-star fighter.
"Ah, Brother Lanter, Lord Town, I'm about to meet you, come, come inside, please. Demu slowly greeted him and said with a smile.
"Just now, Mo Laohei is here, I'll just say, why didn't Brother Demu come to greet Brother Lante, you are an old in-law, only when Mo Laohei, the God of Wealth, comes, Brother Demu will leave me and others, but this is really forgivable" Mayor Caro looked like a large number of adults and said in a reasonable way.
Originally, Heyang Town was a three-leader and a money-rich village, Mo Laohei was just doing business, and he didn't care about other things in the town, and the three giants were in Heyang Town, so there were often some secret fights, and sometimes there were fights on the lips.
However, since Demu and Rant became in-laws, the mayor's power and prestige in Heyang Town have decreased a lot, so the mayor should not be thinking of ways to provoke the tacit understanding between the two families recently.
Rand is a second-class viscount, in charge of the taxes of Heyang Town, and is also a two-star swordsman. Now he is the most prestigious person in Heyang Town, and since he became a family member with Demu, with the cooperation of Demu in many aspects, Rand is the most powerful person in Heyang Town, even stronger than Mayor Carlo.
And after Tokuki was angry with the two brothers, he didn't have the heart to engage in these intrigues, and he was bent on improving his strength and teaching his children. So Mayor Carlo doesn't want to interrupt the relationship between Rand and De Yao all the time.
Tokumu and Rand heard the words of Mayor Carlo, the two of them are also 'orthodox nobles', these lip syncs and nobles' sets are very good, the two of them are very understanding, smiled, and followed into the living room.
The left hall, the right hall, and the upper hall were full of tables, and a red soul beast fur carpet was placed in the lower hall.
Demu and Rant, Mayor Carlo, and Mo Laohei, and several leaders of the mercenary group sat in the upper hall, the left hall was full of visitors, and the right hall went to sit Demu's wife Hailo,
There are also two concubines, Daya and Aina. There is also Demu's eldest son, Vos, a twelve-year-old, four-star fighter, the third son Gray, and the second daughter, Frida, a ten-year-old four-star fighter.
Voss is the son of the eldest lady, and Gray and Frida are the children of the concubine Daya, and Aina is the mother of the little boy who is full moon today.
This is this society where force is supreme, only talented and powerful people in the family can be valued, capable women have the right to speak, and those who are incapable can only suffer as concubines or the like, or just rely on the strength of their mother's family to survive.
Tokumu looked at the people chatting privately below and asked, "Have you arranged the housekeeper?" ”
"Sir, it's all in order, and Pharmacist Kara is ready," replied the butler.
"Alright, the time is about the same, now I declare that the casting of lots begins. Tokuki said.
"Sigh!" the hall fell silent, and everyone knew that the main play had begun.
"Bring the fourth young master up. The heroic voice of the old butler reached the ears of several maids who had already held the child in their arms.
