Chapter 20: The Martial Oath
Chen Ming and the others returned to the Chen family with serious injuries, which shocked everyone in the Chen family, they had just recovered in the past few days, why did they go out for a while today and return with serious injuries? Who injured the two like this?
Everyone in the Chen family was worried about the injuries of Chen Ming and the others, and they were extremely angry. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info Who is so bold, is it impossible for the Chen family to bully it? Last time Chen Ming was injured, the Chen family knew that they didn't pay attention to it after learning about the situation, so they didn't go to look for the girl, and let the Li family search everywhere in Liuyun County.
The Chen family didn't believe that Chen Ming was a person who caused trouble, so there must be some intolerable reason that made Chen Ming angry!
Everyone in the Chen family asked Chen Ming the reason, but Chen Ming just shook his head and didn't say. And when everyone asked Chen Tao, Chen Tao, who was about to blurt out, was stopped by Chen Ming with a look and held back.
There is no impermeable wall, not to mention that many people in Lianhuapo witnessed the beginning and the end at that time. So in the early morning of the second day, everyone in the Chen family knew about it, and they were resentful from top to bottom, scolding Li Lingshan for being powerful and greedy for vanity.
Although it was early in the morning, Chen Ming's room was full of people, grandfather Chen Cang, uncle Chen Yulong, father and mother, and old housekeeper Chen Hua.
"Smack...... Hmph, it's too much of a deception. Just after listening to the housekeeper Chen Hua explain yesterday's situation, Chen Cang slapped the table fiercely and said angrily.
"I thought that the girl of the Li family was a good girl who was sensible, but I didn't expect that she was also such a vulgar person. Chen Yulong said, his expression calm, but this just suppressed all the anger in his heart, like a volcano, waiting to erupt.
The most angry is Chen Ming's parents, the daughter-in-law he approves of treats his son like this, and hurts Chen Ming like this, which parent can bear it.
Although Chen Ming's mother was angry, she didn't say anything, first, she couldn't interject when those men spoke, and second, she put all her thoughts on Chen Ming. I saw that her eyes were slightly red and she looked haggard, which must have been caused by poor rest.
"I'll go to Li's house to ask for an explanation. Chen Yulin got up directly and wanted to go to Li Jiaxingshi to ask for the guilt.
"Yulin. Chen Yulong stopped Chen Yulin: "Don't be impulsive. ”
"How could I not be impulsive? What did Ming'er do wrong? Chen Yulin's voice was a little low.
"This matter involves the Wangcheng Palace family, and we need to think about it in the long run, otherwise the consequences will be unpredictable. There was some helplessness in Chen Yulong's voice.
"What's wrong with the Gong family? Could it be that the Gong family can rely on the power to take a wife at will, and injure others?" Chen Yulin said.
"Confused, why are you so stupid today? Don't tell me that you don't know that in this Wuxuan Continent, fists are hard to use the law?" Chen Yulong shouted angrily.
"But ....... ”
"But what? Do you want to involve the entire Chen family on impulse, don't forget, there are hundreds of people in the Chen family!"
"Okay, stop arguing. After all, Chen Cang was the head of the family, and he had regained his calm after his anger.
"Ahem...... Grandfather, uncle, father. ”
Several people turned their gaze to Chen Ming.
"You don't have to worry about this matter, even if you go, nothing will come of it. Chen Ming said, at this time he was still lying on the bed, his body was weak.
"Ming'er, you were seriously injured, is that it?" Chen Yulin looked at his son lying on the bed, and couldn't swallow this breath.
"Father, I know that you are for my good, Uncle is right, you can't affect the entire Chen family for me. ”
Ming'er ....... Chen Yulong wanted to speak and stopped.
"Hehe, uncle, don't worry, I don't blame you, I know you're good to me, if something really happened to me yesterday, you won't care, right?" Chen Ming said with a smile.
"Haha, it's still Ming'er who is reasonable. Chen Yulong laughed heartily.
"But Ming'er rest assured, although the Chen family is not as good as the Gong family, it is not at will. ”
"Yes, the Chen family is by no means easy to bully, big brother, we will discuss countermeasures in a while. Chen Yulin also eased up and came back to his senses.
"Yulin, Ming'er is your parent, I'm afraid that you will impulsively do something drastic, so when Ming'er's injury is healed, you and your younger siblings will go to Xinghuo Town to continue to take care of the business over there, and I will handle this matter." Chen Yulong said.
"Uncle. Chen Ming shouted.
"Huh?"
"There is no need to discuss any countermeasures, just forget about this matter and don't mention it again. Chen Ming said.
Several people were puzzled, and Chen Cang's eyes flashed even more, looking at Chen Ming.
"Why?" Chen Yulin asked.
"Hehe, for a woman like Li Lingshan, it's not worth it. Chen Ming said plainly.
"But the humiliation you have suffered?"
"Of course, the hatred of humiliation can't just be counted, but I want to take revenge and relieve this hatred myself. If you lose something, you have to find it yourself. ”
"Yesterday I said that when I am strong enough, I will repay the humiliation I have inherited. Chen Ming said firmly.
"I want to use my own hands to prove to everyone that I am different, and not someone who relies on family power. ”
"Haha, okay, this is my Chen Cang's grandson. Able to bend and stretch. Chen Cang, who had not spoken, was particularly happy and kept praising Chen Ming for his ambition.
"A gentleman's revenge, ten years is not too late, it will not take ten years, I will wash away the humiliation of yesterday. Chen Ming said secretly.
"Then what are you going to do?" Chen Cang said.
"After my injuries are healed, I plan to leave the family and go to training. Chen Ming said.
Chen Ming already had the heart of martial arts, and after experiencing such a thing, he had already planned it in his heart.
Chen Ming knew that Liuyun County couldn't make him stronger, he could only get out of Liuyun County and face greater challenges, and he would become stronger and stronger.
At the same time, he didn't sleep all night yesterday and figured out something.
Even if he stays in the Chen family, his own strength is too weak, and he can't solve anything when he encounters a real crisis! If he is strong, even if he is not in the Chen family, others will not dare to provoke the Chen family.
The appearance of Gong Mingjin made him understand a lot of truths, only if someone in the family is strong in cultivation, it will make people fearful, just like the Chen family is now in front of the Gong family.
Chen Ming swore that because of his existence, no one in the Chen family dared to provoke him and stand at the top.
"Ming'er, it's too dangerous outside, you're only sixteen years old. Chen Ming's mother, Xu Yan, was anxious and said worriedly.
"Mother, don't worry, I'm not a child anymore, and I will definitely be able to take care of myself. Chen Ming comforted.
"But ....... ”
"Don't persuade Ming'er anymore, he has grown up, what should he do in the future, he has his own ideas, and we support it. Chen Yulin interrupted Xu Yan's words.
"How can you reach the sky without going through wind and rain? The real strong people have come out of one ordeal after another. Okay, let Ming'er have a good rest, let's go, go see Chen Tao's kid. Chen Cang said.
Xu Yan looked at Chen Ming reluctantly, hesitated but didn't speak, and turned to leave.
Chen Ming smiled in return, feeling quite helpless. He knew that his mother didn't care if he could become a strong person, but hoped that he would be safe. But...... It's not what you want.
A wry smile appeared at the corner of Chen Ming's mouth, during this period of time, he was always injured.
And Li Lingshan's ruthless betrayal did not leave a big shadow in Chen Ming's heart.
It is said that when Chen Cang and a few people came to Chen Tao's room, Chen Tao just shouted, asking Chen Cang to go to Li's house to seek justice, and it was best to teach that Gong Mingjin a lesson.
Chen Cang's beard trembled, and he rewarded Chen Tao with a few violent tremors, which made Chen Tao cry out for mercy.
On the seventh day, Chen Ming recovered most of his injuries and was moving in the courtyard when a servant came to the courtyard.
"What do you want me to do in the front hall?" Chen Ming stopped his movements and wondered.
"I don't know, it seems that someone from the Li family is here. ”
"Okay, I know, you go back first, I'll be there shortly. Chen Ming said.
"Yes. The servant answered and turned away.
"It's finally here. Chen Ming seemed to know that the Li family would come, without any expression on his face.
When I came to the front hall, I saw the head of the house, Chen Cang, sitting in the first place in the center, which was the position of the head of the house. On the lower left side of Chen Cang are all the people of the Chen family, but there are no juniors. On the right hand, there were only three people, and they were a few members of the Li family.
Li Xian, the head of the Li family, sat in front of him, he was the same as Chen Cang, with white hair but a slightly thin body, and he was talking to Chen Cang at this time.
Li Lingshan stood behind Li Xian with an indifferent expression, even if Chen Ming came to the front hall, he only glanced at it, without a trace of emotion. It's like a stranger you've never met.
Looking at Li Lingshan in front of him as if he had changed a person, Chen Ming didn't have any fluctuations in his heart, it was fake, but Li Lingshan's ruthlessness made Chen Ming instantly return to normal, and he stood still after walking behind his father who was sitting in the lower seat.
Although Gong Mingjin is a junior, he also sits next to Li Xian, which is enough to see the strength of the Gong family, even if it is a junior, he sits on an equal footing with the elders of the Chen and Li families. He looked at Chen Ming, disdain and banter flashed in his eyes.
Chen Ming was unconscious.
"Brother Chen, ......what do you think of this matter?" Li Xian said to Chen Cang slowly, although he was asking, but there was no intention of asking on his face.
Everyone in the Chen family had anger in their eyes, but Chen Cang didn't speak, and they didn't say anything, so they could only squeeze the armrest of the chair hard.
"It's a matter between juniors, and we need to see how they choose. Chen Cang said.
"Hehe, what Brother Chen said is also true, let them make their own decisions about their affairs, and we really shouldn't interfere. Li Xian said with a smile, then his voice changed, and he pretended to be helpless: "Brother Chen, although we don't want such a thing to happen, sometimes we really can't help ourselves, and I hope Brother Chen can be considerate." ”
"Hehe, what is this saying, Brother Li doesn't have to feel guilty. Brother Li is busy with things every day, but he still has to talk about this matter in person, so I think it is better to let the juniors solve this matter quickly, so as not to delay the major affairs of Brother Li's family. Chen Cang smiled, but he must have been unhappy, and his words contained the meaning of picking up customers.
It seems that they had been talking for a long time before Chen Ming came, and finally called Chen Ming over. Looking at the expressions of everyone in the Chen family, there must be nothing pleasant, Chen Ming has already guessed the purpose of the Li family this time - to get out of the marriage.
Although the Chen family had also expected it a long time ago, they were also unhappy in their hearts, after all, this was humiliation.
It's just that Chen Ming didn't expect the Li family to come so quickly.
"In this case, let's settle this matter as soon as possible, and it can be regarded as a boulder in everyone's hearts. Li Xian's face changed slightly, he didn't expect this Chen Cang to be so faceless, and he actually started to send off guests.
"Lingshan. Li Xian said softly.
"Grandpa. Li Lingshan walked out.
"Explain what you want in your heart to that Young Master Chen Ming. Hehe, I think Young Master Chen Ming is a reasonable person and will definitely understand you. "Li Xian is a little yin and yang.
"Yes. ”
Li Lingshan looked at Chen Ming, Chen Ming didn't dodge, looked at him, and waited for Li Lingshan to say the words he expected in his heart.
"Chen Ming, I came here today to cancel the marriage contract between us. Li Lingshan said ruthlessly.
"Do you think you've found a big tree?" Chen Ming didn't answer, but asked rhetorically.
"You...... Don't be so unbearable as I say, it's just that I never liked you, how did you tell me to marry you. Li Lingshan was a little annoyed.
"Oh, then you like Gong Mingjin. Chen Ming sneered.
"If I don't like Brother Gong, how can I walk with him?"
"Do you like him, or do you like his surname Gong?"
"You...... Chen Ming, don't go too far, you humiliate me like this. ”
"Hehe, no matter what you like, Ling Shan wants to be with me, and you have to recognize the reality of this. Gong Mingjindao, who never spoke, was calm and composed.
He never took this small family seriously, and they didn't obediently follow what he said, so he always looked confident.
"Hehe, there is no need to argue with you about this, since you want to cancel the marriage, it will be as you wish. Chen Ming said indifferently.
"Those who know the times are Junjie, and you are a smart person. Gong Mingjin said leisurely.
Hearing Gong Mingjin's words, Chen Ming instantly became imposing: "I agreed to dissolve the marriage contract not because I was afraid of you, so don't always look like you're on top, one day, I will trample you under my feet." ”
"Haha....... Gong Mingjin laughed: "Counting that day, this is the second time I've heard you say such things, but the idea is good, the reality is cruel, what do you compare with me?"
Chen Ming stared at Gong Mingjin and said firmly: "You will be the first person I defeat." ”
"Then I'll wait for you. Gong Mingjin obviously didn't take Chen Ming's words to heart, and said casually.
"Grandpa, if there's nothing going on, I'll go first. Chen Ming turned his head and said.
After that, he ignored the Li family and turned to leave.
..............................
Liuyun County is not big, and within a few days, the news of the cancellation of the marriage between the Chen family and the Li family became known all over the city, and various theories spread one after another.
And some people are not too surprised, since that day, some people expected such a result, but they didn't expect the Chen family to agree so happily, could they endure such a humiliating thing?
"The Li family is too much, Brother Ming, how can you agree so easily?" In the face of Chen Tao's anger, Chen Ming didn't explain anything, just recuperated with peace of mind.
On this day, Chen Ming's injuries had healed and Chen Cang was found.
"Grandpa. Chen Ming said.
"Ming'er is here, I haven't seen you since the Li family came over a few days ago, and I hope this matter won't have any impact on you. Chen Cang said with concern.
"Grandpa is too worried, I'm fine. Chen Ming said.
"Yes, that's good. Then he sighed: "Hey, the situation is not as good as people, the Gong family is not something that the current Chen family can offend, although I don't have a bad heart, I am helpless, I just wronged you!" Although Chen Ming is very good on the surface, Chen Cang is really afraid that this incident will cause Chen Ming a blow.
"I know grandpa, I can figure it out. Chen Ming said.
"Grandpa, I want to tell you something about this time. Chen Ming continued.
"It's a matter of going out to practice, right?" Chen Cang asked.
"Well, only by becoming a strong person will there not be so much helplessness. Chen Ming said.
"Haha, I'm glad you can have such an awareness, with your talent in Liuyun County, you have indeed buried you. I know you care about the family, but when you are strong enough, even if you are thousands of miles away, no one dares to mess with the Chen family. Chen Cang laughed.
"But it's too dangerous outside, I've been thinking about letting you go to the academy to practice these days. Chen Cang was a little worried.
There is a martial arts academy in the Shengyuan Kingdom, which is a place dedicated to cultivating talents, and many big families will send their descendants there to study.
"Grandpa, although I am only sixteen years old and have not experienced anything in the family, I also know that I know that towering trees cannot grow in the greenhouse, and the real strong must be created by the test of life and death. Chen Ming did not agree to Chen Cang's proposal.
"Hey...... Well, since you've decided that I can't say anything, it's just that people's hearts are sinister, and you must be extremely cautious outside. Chen Cang sighed, he knew that he couldn't persuade this grandson.
In the next few days, Chen Ming didn't practice much, just stayed by his parents' side, and he didn't know how long it would take to come back. Chen Ming decided in his heart that if he didn't succeed in cultivation, he would never return home.
Because of the family business, Chen Yulin and his wife had to leave, so when Chen Yulin and his wife left, Chen Ming was ready to leave.
"Brother Ming, you're leaving tomorrow. ”
At this time, most of the juniors of the Chen family were here, and Chen Tao did not have the hippie smile of the past, and he was reluctant to say.
"Well, sooner or later, you have to leave. Chen Ming said.
"Brother Yi is here. ”
"Brother Yi. Chen Ming said.
"Be careful when you're out and about. Chen Yi's words are very simple, but they reveal his brother's love for his younger brother, although Chen Ming's cultivation is stronger than him, but in his heart, Chen Ming, or his younger brother, has never been jealous.
"Yes, I will. Chen Ming's answer was also very simple.
"After entering the Qi Channeling Realm, I will also leave my family and apply for the Holy Martial Academy. Chen Yi said.
"Brother Yi, are you going to the Holy Martial Academy?" Chen Tao said in surprise.
"Well, that's the only place that makes me stronger. He turned to Chen Ming and said, "Only if we are strong, the Chen family will not be bullied at will." ”
Chen Ming felt a surge of blood hit his chest, and at this moment, his fighting spirit was boiling.
"Yes, only strong people will not be bullied, and Brother Yi actually has such thoughts. Chen Mingxin said.
Although Chen Yi didn't say anything about the Li family's divorce this time, he still cared about Chen Ming, he wanted to become a strong man, able to deter outsiders, and no one would dare to trample on the Chen family at will.
Chen Ming's heart was very moved.
"Brother Yi is right, only if you are strong will you not be bullied. Usually I don't work very hard in my cultivation, but this time, I'm going to the Holy Martial Academy too. Chen Tao clenched his fists and roared.
"I'm going too. ”
"Get strong. ”
............。
Everyone was enthusiastic, and the juniors of the Chen family around the three of them shouted loudly.
Chen Yi and Chen Ming looked at the excited younger brothers and sisters, and a smile appeared, the children of the Chen family at this moment reproduced the pride of the four clans when they met martial arts!
Chen Tao is an active and loving master, he was extremely excited and stretched out his palm and said loudly: "Okay, today all the brothers of our Chen family swear together, cultivate hard, and become a strong man." ”
Everyone put their hands on Chen Tao's palm, how could Chen Yi and Chen Ming not be infected, and also put their hands on the palms of these younger brothers and sisters.
"Cultivate hard and become a strong man. ”
"Cultivate hard and become a strong man. ”
"Cultivate hard and become a strong man. ”
Everyone shouted three times together, and the momentum soared into the sky, breaking away the dark cloud that covered the sun, and shooting a ray of bright sunshine.
The Li family's divorce once again aroused the blood of all the juniors of the Chen family.
