Chapter 30: The Family Feast
With the back gradually disappearing, Long Yuewen stopped thoughtfully.
Long Shixin quietly pulled Long Chuchen's cuffs, shook off a vague look, and slowly pointed her fingers in the opposite direction of the family.
The good-looking eyebrows were raised slightly, and the young man naturally understood the meaning contained in that look, that is, when Long Yuewen was in a trance, before he came back to his senses, he hurried away.
When the girl saw that he was still in place, she didn't speak, but just pulled Long Chuchen's left hand around her chest, and glanced at it with a look that others couldn't read, and tiptoed back.
"Stop. ”
Before Long Chuchen's footsteps moved, the sudden shouting frightened the girl, put down Long Chuchen's hand, turned around, and asked, "Brother, what are you doing?"
Long Yuewen looked surprised, looking at the girl who was called a mystery in the clan, his face was cloudy.
"Brother Wei also wants to ask you, what do you want to do?"
"Of course I'm leaving here, the auction is over, what are you doing here?" Long Shixin responded with confidence as a matter of course.
"So, why avoid me. The uncertain color on Long Yuewen's face intensified, and he glanced at Long Chuchen, who was silent beside him.
"Brother, who are you referring to, is it a little sister, but why should I avoid you?" Long Shixin quibbled.
Long Yuewen raised his eyebrows, wanting to get angry and teach Long Shixin, who acted without scruples today, but when the words came to his mouth, he couldn't open his mouth, so he said helplessly: "Forget it, I won't worry about these trivial matters with you, and talk about the important things that happened today." “
Long Shixin stroked the strands of hair on her chest, pretending to be surprised, and asked, "The important thing happened today, is it in the family?"
"Long Shixin. As soon as he heard her tone, the anger that burst out of Long Yuewen's heart suddenly decreased by three points, and he was as gentle as jade, and his gentle temperament returned to him.
"What happened today could have been avoided, but because of your willfulness, a heavy mountain has risen on the opposite side of your family. Long Yuewen's face was gloomy, and those difficult things about the family were properly reflected in his facial features, and he continued: "Could it be that in your understanding, the Long Clan is destined to disappear in the long history of Duolun City, and based on this, you have no scruples in your actions. ”
"Brother, at that time, the situation did not allow us to retreat, and the face of the family must be preserved, especially in this sensitive situation, where all the forces in Duolun City are concerned about the big back/scene of the Long Clan, we have no choice. ”
Long Yuewen's gentle and elegant face flashed a trace of embarrassment, and he immediately continued: "There are many ways to keep the family's face, why choose the most direct and reckless one with the worst room for maneuver...... The aftermath will make the family's already worried situation even worse. ”
Long Shixin bowed her head slightly and chose a wordless silence.
"Shixin, Shixin, what trouble did you make this time...... Long Yue Wen said this, for some reason, he closed his eyes gently and slowly, and paused for a long time before he continued: "Explanation will not play any beneficial role for those stubborn and pedantic elders of the family, I believe you know this very well, and this matter will definitely have a big blow to your right to speak in the family, and even the elders, the family enforcers will lower unexpected punishments, are you ready to accept it all?"
The girl who was looking at the ground didn't even look back, and nodded resolutely, who can understand the meaning contained in it?
Long Yuewen's eyes were full of expectation, and he didn't seem to have the slightest sense of abruptness about this answer, the answer that the only sister was unusually damaging, as if he had heard it countless times, but the reluctance to leave no trace in his eyes rippled slightly.
Looking at Long Chuchen, who had been standing beside the girl speechless for a long time, a trace of indescribable light slowly flashed in his eyes, and he turned his gaze lightly, looking at the location of the Long family from afar, his tone was quiet, vaguely containing some deep meaning, and said: "The current situation of the family is like a martial artist who is constantly approaching the prison abyss, and her final outcome may be as predicted by most people, but as a member of the Long clan, will that moment come, who can really say it?"
The complexity and profundity in Long Yuewen's tone at this moment seemed to have touched the two of them.
In the early morning, for my brother to listen to the news passed on by the clan, after sunset, a large-scale family banquet will be held in the clan. ”
The young men and girls standing side by side, hearing this, looked at each other, and then Long Chuchen subconsciously clenched the hosta in his hand, and his eyes like stars lit up.
......
The scorching sun hangs high, and the sun is like fire.
Growing alone in the courtyard of the Long Clan, three or two Qingyang trees struggled against the scorching direct sunlight from the sky, just like the huge group living at the bottom of the Roland Continent.
Looking from afar, the backs of the two old men who released the breath of superiority ignored the scorching heat, strolling in the wide courtyard of the mine, and their conversation was like the sky, full of enthusiasm.
Suddenly, a young and childish clansman appeared, breaking the two eager and familiar conversations, the young man held a thin envelope in both hands, slowly approached the two old men, bowed down, and handed the news in his hand to the old man on the left.
Long Tan took it casually, nodded slightly, and motioned for the young clansmen to step back, tear open the secret paper, and inspect it carefully.
In the process of checking the news on it, the expression on Elder Long Yu's face seemed to have been corroded by the power of the highly poisonous attribute of the Dou Qi, gloomy and gray, and from beginning to end, it did not change in the slightest.
Elder Long Yan was secretly puzzled, and when he was thinking about the contents of the letterhead, Long Yu angrily stuffed the letter, which made Long Yan inexplicable, and asked, "What happened to make Elder Long Tan so emotional. ”
"Take a good look! Long Tan suppressed the angry flames that kept gushing out, and responded viciously, fortunately Long Chuchen was not here, otherwise, there would definitely be no bones left.
Long Yan simply didn't say more, and directly put his eyes on the letterhead, and in an instant, his face changed greatly.
"Nonsense, nonsense, it's just nonsense, no, this is presumptuous, this bear heart leopard gall borrowed from Long Chuchen. ”
Long Yu sneered, mixed with the anger in his burning chest, and roared in a low voice: "The heir of the ancient family of the imperial capital, presumably his father didn't dare to offend easily, he was a milky hairy boy who did such a shocking thing, did he still think it was three years ago?"
Long Yan's brows were tightly locked, his expression seemed to be swaying like a lake in a violent wind, he grabbed the letter paper in his hand fiercely, held it into a ball of waste paper, and said a little out of voice between his words, "He is not alone in this matter. ”
"Hmm"
Long Tan took the letter paper that had become a mess from his hand, carefully spread it out, smoothed it, and looked at Long Yan, who was full of doubts, with deep meaning, and said: "Although what our young patriarch has done is worthy of anger, there are always two sides to things, and that thing can work, and the debts owed by Long Chuchen always have to be repaid by himself." “
Long Yan seemed to understand, his tightly knit brows slowly relaxed, and said, "In this way, even if the heir of that ancient family uses the power of the family, there will be forces on the imperial capital side to block it, not to mention, the possibility of this matter attracting attention at that level is very small." ”
This is true, how can the old family be distracted from us, but it is inevitable for the heir of the old family. ”
Long Yan nodded, and said with some worry: "I'm afraid that old guy Long Yi will come forward to stop it! After all, it is a matter of Long Chuchen's life, although that kid has become a waste, but that old guy will not care." ”
"That old guy, hehe, don't forget, Long Shixin is also impressive in this matter. Long Tan seemed to be planning something that would go down in history, and that unpredictable joy rose instantly, and then, as if remembering something, Nan Nan said to herself: "It's also strange to say, how could Long Shixin, who is smart and clever and is praised as a genius girl by the clan, do such a disappointing disaster." ”
Long Yan slapped his forehead, looked embarrassed, scratched his head embarrassedly, and said perfunctorily: "Forget, forget." ”
As if he was used to it, Long Yu didn't squeak, he thought silently in his heart, and after a while, he said: "Let's go!" Elder Long Yan, you should go and prepare for the family banquet after the fall, and leave it all to the juniors to do, I really don't worry, since this news came, this family banquet ...... It's true, there's no room for error. ”
After taking the first step, Long Yu's back became farther and farther away, and Long Yan, who was staying in place, looked at him and thought silently: "The family banquet is indeed very important, and after this happens, it may become more in line with the interests of the family." ”
Close to the forbidden land of the Long family, there is a lush and prosperous forest growing next to it, lush and verdant, from here, look at the direction of the forbidden land, and the eyes are the giant tree that stands out from the crowd in the forbidden land, and the maverick giant tree is really covering the sky.
At this time, in the center of the woods, the aura gathered, and a young figure sitting cross-legged on the ground jumped into view, only to see the aura distributed in the air converge into a visible to the naked eye and scattered around the young figure.
After the last seal knot in the young figure's hand was completed, the aura that was visible to the naked eye around him immediately thinned and melted into the void.
The figure who had completed the cultivation suddenly opened his eyes, brushed, and a breathtaking light swept by, got up leisurely, and simply moved his body, clicking, clicking sounds continued to come from all over his body, his hands were connected, and he pinched each other.
"It's fascinating, but unfortunately, it's often just a moment. Long Ming sighed with regret.
Turning his head to look around, when he found that the sun hanging high in the sky was slowly setting in the west, he was startled, and couldn't help but say: "The sun is setting in the west, what time is it? Cultivate for a while, why has it been so long? Don't delay this family banquet." ”
After saying that, he shook off and drifted away, leaving only a footprint left by a person.
