Chapter 7 The Monument of God Descending from Heaven
The night was deep, and the bright moonlight flowed in the Falling Cloud City, like a silver ocean. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
On this quiet street, there was a group of people pacing leisurely, talking and laughing along the way, slowly and leisurely walking towards the Su family's mansion.
Not long after, Su Fan came to the door of the Su family under the guidance of Su Erhu and other guards. He looked up, but what attracted his attention the most was not the tall and luxurious gate of Su Mansion, but the legendary stone tablet that was more than ten zhang long.
Legend has it that a long, long time ago, the originally peaceful and peaceful Falling Cloud City suffered a disaster of annihilation without warning: suddenly a vision suddenly appeared, black clouds came all over the sky, and the breath of death was permeated everywhere.
In just a few days, more than half of the people in the city were killed or wounded. Fear is like a cage that separates the whole world.
Although the powerhouses of Luoyun City have the ability to overwhelm the mountains and seas, they are also helpless in the face of this oppressive black cloud. If this situation continues, the danger of Falling Cloud City will only be in the blink of an eye.
However, just as the people were in despair, a golden light suddenly flashed in the distant sky, and a huge stone tablet fell from the sky, instantly crushing the black cloud and crushing it under the base.
Luoyun City was saved, and the stone tablet with great merit has been worshiped as a god by people since then and worshiped every day.
Coincidentally, the place where the stele fell was the front yard of the Su family, and everyone thought it was God's will, and the Su family was powerful, so it guarded the stele safely. Since then, the Su family has taken on the responsibility of guarding the stele, which is thousands of years.
Thousands of years of changes, time has passed, the legend about the stone tablet has long been gradually forgotten in the world, only a very small number of people still circulate, and most of them are just as an after-dinner conversation for entertainment.
Nowadays, the significance of the stele can be described as a symbol of the Su family for the Su family. However, for most of the city's residents, it is more of a representative building in Falling Cloud City...
Su Fan stood silently at the door for a while, then took a deep breath, and then ordered someone to knock on the door of the Su family.
There was a response soon inside, and it was Steward Li who opened the door, and seeing that it was the Fourth Young Master, Su Erhu and others waiting outside, he hurriedly smiled and respectfully led them to the hall of the Su family.
In the hall, the lights were bright, and all the core members of the Su family were present, discussing the annual opening ceremony tomorrow.
"Hey, haven't you heard that Su Fan's little guy is still alive. ”
"I also heard about it in the evening, a mentally handicapped child was miraculously able to survive a flash flood, which is really a blessing and a great fate!"
"Isn't it, it is said that if you don't die in a catastrophe, there will be a blessing in the future, you see that Su Fan will return to a normal person immediately after the catastrophe. ”
"Yes, thanks to God's favor, otherwise the patriarch would have felt guilty for the rest of his life!"
"But even if there is an accident, there is no way to do it. Who made Xiao Su Fan a mentally retarded, let him live an ordinary life, no matter from which point of view, it is the best protection for him..."
Everyone whispered in their spare time, and the focus was on Su Fan's body, as if the theme of tonight's meeting, the opening ceremony, had become an inconsequential matter.
Su Changtian, the patriarch of the Su family, sat in the first place, listening to their discussion with an indifferent expression, if he had dared to desert in the council before, he would have already erupted into a thunderous rage.
But now, Su Changtian also stopped the arrangements and deployments for the opening ceremony, and he sat quietly in his chair, his heart quietly overflowing with infinite joy.
Anyone who hears that his son has recovered from the aftermath of the catastrophe and his mental retardation will be happy, and Su Changtian is no exception.
Before Su Changtian held the meeting tonight, he ordered him to go down early, and as soon as he received Su Fan, he immediately brought him to the meeting hall to meet him. He is now in a very anxious mood and very nervous, which may be what people often say, "close to love is more timid".
It is said that Steward Li took Su Fan and the others all the way through the backyard, through the garden, and finally stopped in front of the solemn meeting hall. After he gently knocked on the door for Su Fan, he bowed down and said goodbye. After Su Fan saw the old housekeeper leave, he took Su Xiaoqian and Su Erhu to push the door in.
The council hall was large, and there were a lot of people inside, with a total of five people seated directly above. Below the five people, on both sides, sat the powerful elders of the Su family. Of course, there are also many talented young people standing around them, as well as potential teenagers who are generally favored by their elders.
But Su Fan recognized at a glance the Su family patriarch Su Changtian, who was sitting in the first place, that is, his father from another world.
Su Fan stood at the door and watched this "father" who suddenly appeared, only to see that he was tall and burly, with an angular face, starry eyes and sword eyebrows, and a gray-green robe, which glowed with a high and deep cold light under the reflection of the lights.
Just in an instant, Su Fan felt a sense of reverence for his father, which arose spontaneously from the bottom of his heart. This surprised and shocked him, what was going on? Obviously, he didn't have the slightest sense of identity, but why did he have some kind of affection for this father as soon as they met!
"Probably because of the residual consciousness of the previous owner of this body!" Su Fan sighed secretly, sure enough, it was a deep relationship between father and son, even if people and ghosts had different paths, they could not be cut off.
When Su Changtian saw Su Fan coming in, he was slightly stunned at first, and then he smiled, and he shouted loudly: "Su Fan, my son, come over quickly, let my father take a good look at you!"
"Yes, father!" Su Fan agreed, and under the curious and surprised eyes of everyone, he slowly walked towards Su Changtian.
In order to hide his identity, Su Fan had to call his father, and he also let it go, thinking that anyway, I have no father and no mother since I was a child, so I should worship a backer in the other world and recognize a father-in-law, and I have nothing to lose.
"Wow, Su Fan has really become normal. ”
"Yes, it's better to see than to hear, if I hadn't seen it today, I wouldn't have believed it!"
"Ancestor bless!, the Fourth Young Master is really back..."
The crowd began to talk about it, and the hall was buzzing endlessly, and there was a jubilant atmosphere.
"Good son, over the years, you have suffered for your father!" Su Changtian looked left and right at Su Fan, and finally held his shoulders and said distressed in a trembling voice.
"Children are not bitter, children just miss their fathers and mothers. When Su Fan heard this, his heart was also shocked, this was the first time in his life that he felt his father's love, which made him unforgettable, and he was inexplicably moved. Therefore, subconsciously, Su Fan said what he had suppressed for many years to this "father", he really missed his biological father and mother very much.
"Haha, your mother must be crying again when she hears it!" Su Changtian said, but his eyes were sour, and two lines of hot tears fell involuntarily.
"Patriarch, father and son are reunited, and the fourth young master has recovered from his mental retardation, so he should be happy!" an elder stood up and stepped forward to persuade.
"Yes, yes, patriarch, the fourth young master has returned safely, this is a great joy, the Su family should celebrate with the whole family..."
Su Changtian listened to everyone's words of relief, waved his hand slightly, and said with a smile: "I'm crying with joy!
Surrounded by the warmth of this warm family, a deep bond between Su Fan and the Su family has been established since then.
"Oh, by the way, father, I can come back safely this time, all thanks to the protection of Su Xiaoqian and Leader Su, I want to ask for a reward for them!" Su Fan knelt on one knee and said sincerely.
"Okay, thank you for your kindness, you are worthy of being a good man of my Su family, yes. Su Changtian is very happy now, don't say it's a reward, even if it's some reluctant invitation, he will agree, "Su Erhu, Su Xiaoqian, you go back to the account room and receive three hundred gold coins each as a reward for you." ”
"Patriarch Xie!" Su Erhu and Su Xiaoqian hurriedly knelt down to Su Changtian, and said gratefully.
"Excuse me, behave well in the future, your benefits are indispensable. Su Changtian smiled faintly and waved his hand.
After he finished speaking, he suddenly turned around slightly, and said softly to Su Fan: "Fan'er, tomorrow is the opening ceremony, now that you have recovered from your mental retardation, you also want to participate, go back to the house and prepare well." ”
