Chapter 47, the slap to his face

There is a big mansion in the south of Yangchuan City, it is very old at a glance, the majestic atmosphere of the building, simple and elegant, among which there are more pavilions and pavilions, carved railings and painted walls, although it looks a little dilapidated now, but obviously, the previous owner of this house must also be a rich man for a while.

At the main entrance of the mansion, there is a plaque of "Peng Mansion", which is Peng Xudong's home.

The history of this house is more than 100 years.

That was Peng Xudong's great-great-grandfather, that is, his grandfather's grandfather, this great-great-grandfather's name was Peng Chao, and his peak strength was a powerhouse in the transcendent realm.

Above the Awakening Realm is the Transcendent Realm, and above the Transcendent Realm, it is the Transcendent Realm!

The transcendent, the transcendent is also!

In the Federation, any transcendent person will be named a "Grandmaster" by the federal government.

Let's put it this way, the city lords of Yangchuan City are only the highest in the reincarnation realm, and the city lords in some smaller cities may only need the awakening realm to take on the responsibility, and now the county guard of Pingjia County is a grandmaster of the transcendent realm.

The Peng family has produced such a figure who is enough to serve as the head of a county, and the whole family is naturally one person who has attained the Tao, and the chicken dog has ascended to heaven.

There is no doubt that the Peng family at that time was the top family in the entire Yangchuan City, and it can be said that there is no one!

The average lifespan of a transcendent realm grandmaster is about five hundred years old, if Peng Chao has been alive, then now Yangchuan City must be the world of the Peng family, but unfortunately, maybe it is the jealousy of the talent, this Peng Chao is not a peaceful person, he is not willing to stay at home and wait for death, he also wants to go further, so he often goes deep into the dimensional world where the beast is located to experience treasure hunting.

There is a way to walk by the river without getting your shoes wet, and the Transcendent Realm Grandmaster is the number one figure in Pingjia County in Yangchuan City, but it is not so conspicuous in the entire Federation, let alone in the dimensional world of crisis.

About eighty years ago, one day, Peng Chao suddenly returned to Peng's house with a serious injury, and it didn't take long for him to choke, and it was rumored that he was injured by a powerful beast in the dimensional world.

As soon as Peng Chao's big tree fell, the Peng family was immediately regarded as a huge piece of fat by other families who were pressed under them before, but Peng Chao was away all the year round and neglected to discipline his children, so he was really not too surprised among his descendants. There are only two brothers who have relied on resources to reach the awakening realm, and before the foreign enemy comes, they will pinch it up first for the sake of the inheritance.

So under such internal and external troubles, the Peng family, which was invincible back then, soon declined.

It wasn't until Peng Xudong's grandfather took over the Peng family that the Peng family, which was so shaky that they almost had to sell their ancestral home, was reinvigorated.

But the strange thing is that just when everyone thought that the Peng family would rise again, Peng Xudong's grandfather suddenly died violently, and he was not yet fifty years old when he died.

Then there is Peng Xudong's father, who also brought a period of improvement to the Peng family when he first took over the Peng family, but he also died mysteriously a few years later, and when he died, Peng Xudong was just sensible.

If it weren't for the fact that there has been a loyal Peng housekeeper who has been taking care of the Peng family's business all these years, and barely maintaining the dignity of the Peng family, the Peng family would have been swallowed by other families in Yangchuan City, ensuring that Peng Xudong's life was even worse than Chen Qi!

But Peng Xudong's current appearance is already miserable.

He was lying on a carved solid wood bed, his face was pale and bloodless, his lips were blue, he seemed to be a little thirsty, signaled that he wanted to drink water, and the maid next to him brought the water cup to his mouth to feed him, he was shivering when he drank it, as if he was a severe Parkinson's patient, and most of the water was spilled on the quilt.

"Young Master!"

Steward Peng came in at this time, with a pair of black gloves on his right hand, but under the gloves was a prosthetic leg. After seeing Peng Xudong's appearance, his gloomy face showed a sad look, this look was definitely sincere, it seemed that he really loved Peng Xudong.

When Peng Xudong saw Steward Peng, he called out weakly: "Uncle Gui." ā€

Steward Peng's name is Peng Gui, but this is obviously not his original name, as for what his original name was, it is estimated that even he can't remember clearly. Even Peng Xudong only vaguely heard that Peng Gui was a powerful party decades ago, but he provoked a great enemy and was seriously injured, and was finally rescued by his grandfather, so he changed his name and surname, and loyally became a housekeeper in the Peng family, serving the Peng family for three generations.

Peng Xudong's father had just remembered when he died, and it was Peng Gui who raised him single-handedly, so the relationship between the two was very deep, even if Peng Gui had always regarded himself as a subordinate person, but in Peng Xudong's eyes, this "noble uncle" was his biggest dependence, and his status was not bad with his father. And Peng Gui has never married and has no children, so he treats Peng Xudong like his own son.

"Young Master, do you feel better?"

Peng Xudong shook his head lightly and said weakly: "Uncle, am I going to die?"

"No," Peng Gui hurriedly comforted him softly: "Your injuries have stabilized, and the doctor said that as long as you recuperate well, there will be no danger to your life." ā€

"Can you just save your life?" Peng Xudong is not a stupid person, and after feeling his body, he smiled bitterly: "Can my body recover?"

Peng Gui was silent, he was not a person who could lie, even if he knew that he should tell a lie to comfort Peng Xudong at this time.

"Uncle, you say, I don't want to just lie on the bed like this all the time. ā€

Peng Gui hesitated for a moment, and said to the maid on the side, "You guys go out first." ā€

After the maids left, he slowly spoke: "The doctor said that your heart has been severely damaged, and it was not easy to save your life, but from now on, your heart's blood supply capacity will be greatly reduced, and you will not be able to support your body." Although you can recover a little after careful recuperation, at most you can only return to the level of ordinary people, and even so, I am afraid you will not be able to experience too intense exercise. ā€

Peng Xudong on the bed clenched his fists.

For him, who has been determined to restore the glory of his family since he was a child, he can only be an ordinary person in the future, and he is an ordinary person who can't even complete strenuous exercise, which means that his future is completely ruined, how can he accept it?!

But it's rare that Peng Xudong is still a little calm now: "Uncle, what's going on with my injury?"

Peng Gui was silent for a moment before he said, "If the old slave didn't guess wrong, it should be a backlash." ā€

"You mean, that jade plaque?!"

Peng Gui nodded and said, "According to the experience of the old slave, there is no curse in this world that cannot be broken, so the curse has never been as terrible as outsiders think." Any curse, once it is broken, the spellcaster will be more or less counterattacked, and the stronger the curse, the stronger the counterattack after being cracked! So according to the old slave, maybe Chen Qi has already found a way to break the curse, otherwise how dare he rebel against the Angry Wind Martial Academy?

"Chen Qi!" Peng Xudong's eyes erupted with fire, and his fists clenched tightly, but he immediately thought of another question, and said: "But how is it possible? Chen Qi is just a beginner soldier, I admit that his talent is better than mine, but how can this dream curse be ordinary? Back then, my grandfather and father relied on it to curse and kill all the people who opposed our Peng family in Yangchuan City, and those were all knights of the Awakening Realm! Even knights can't compete, how can Chen Qi crack it?"

Peng Gui shook his head and said: "Young master, curse, the old slave doesn't know much, but the old slave heard such a statement back then." Any curse is a life, this life, is the vitality in the curse, some curses have many life, the more advanced and powerful the curse, the less life, but once caught, the more powerful the backlash. And discovering this kind of life gate does not require much from the strength of the cursed, mainly relying on wisdom. ā€

"What's that?"

"The young master can see the door of life as a key to breaking the curse. It is said that most of these keys were left by the inventors of the curse, just like those masters who are proficient in poisons, and they will not kill people with a poison that they themselves can't solve. Because if something goes wrong, there's no room for redemption. The same is true for curses, leave a life, so that one day if you use the wrong object, or even accidentally use it on yourself, you can also lift it in this way. ā€

"Damn it!"

"But there is another saying," Peng Gui said, "It is said that in an ancient book unearthed before the cataclysm, there is such a sentence - 'Fifty in the way of heaven, forty-nine in the great yan'. It means that there is no absolutely perfect thing in this world, and the same is true of curses, and no matter how perfect the curse is, there is a glimmer of life to grasp. The vitality of this line is the lifeline. ā€

Peng Gui continued: "Although Chen Qi's cultivation is not strong, this person is extremely smart and very difficult to deal with, so it is not impossible for him to find the fate of the curse, otherwise it will not be possible to explain the reason why your heart has been damaged these days, young master." Especially when the young master vomited blood for the first time, Chen Qi was locked up in a small black room at that time, and he was expelled the next day. According to the old slave's inquiry, Chen Qi was very arrogant at the time, and seemed to be completely unafraid of what his future would be after being expelled. Everything can't be such a coincidence, so according to the old slave's speculation, Chen Qi should have discovered the fate of this nightmare curse on that night in the small black room. ā€

Hearing this, Peng Xudong spurted out a mouthful of blood on the spot.

How could he not remember that day?

It was originally the most beautiful day after he entered the Fury Wind Martial Academy, because on that day, he humiliated Chen Qi, won the position of the chief boys, and forced Chen Qi into a small black house.

As a result, he didn't have much scenery, and suddenly vomited blood that night, and he vomited inexplicably!

Now he knew that it was Chen Qi who found the way to break the curse in that small black room, so he was counterattacked.

But here's the problem......

If he hadn't provoked him at that time, Chen Qi wouldn't have had a chance to enter the small black house......

It's really a slap in the face!
