Chapter 8: The elders of the Chen family

Three days later, the Chen family manor.

It is said to be a manor, but it is really just a saying, as a high-class family entrenched in Qingzhou, the Chen family manor, as an ancestral home, has formed a huge city after thousands of years of development.

The location of the land here is excellent, and it is just the transportation link of several surrounding prefectures, and the business is very prosperous.

The rent of the shops here alone is a huge astronomical amount every month.

The dominant dynasty in this world is the imperial dynasty, and even a sect like the Five Spirits Sect is at most similar to a local warlord.

For the importance of mortals, the laws of the dynasty are quite strict, once it is found that someone deliberately uses the essence of mortals to refine the secret art of demons, it will inevitably withstand the attack of the masses.

The main task of the various guards throughout the Great Qian Dynasty is to safeguard the rights and interests of mortals, that is, the most basic right to life.

On the whole, at least, this law is being obeyed on the surface.

The division of immortals is not serious, mortals are also the cornerstone of cultivators, such as spiritual stones, these mineral deposits are naturally excavated by mortals.

There is no concept of breaking off love and sexuality through practice, but it is the protection of the clan, and the blood connection is more important.

In the current world when the imperial dynasty suppressed the world, there was no collapse of etiquette and music, even the top cultivators had to abide by the three outlines and five constants, and the etiquette norms.

There is also a Si Tianjian inspecting the world, and Qin Tianjian regulates the wind and rain.

Every year in all parts of the country, the wind and rain are smooth, the harvest is abundant, and there has never been a famine.

It has truly benefited the people.

Thirty years ago, the household registration was registered, and the number of people in the Daqian Dynasty had reached 180,000.

The carriage with the Chen family logo slowly entered the city, not to mention the guards at the city gate to intercept and ask, they had already knelt down on one knee when they saw the Chen family's carriage, no matter who was doing in the carriage, it was not something they could afford to provoke.

Crossing the long and prosperous main road, the carriage stopped at the gate of the Chen family.

The gate is made up of three large gatehouses, large in the middle and small on both sides.

The whole body is carved from jade, and the carved patterns of strange beasts float on the surface, and ordinary people are already afraid just by seeing it.

The children on duty came to check, and Chen Shaojie opened the curtain to reveal his face.

"It's Young Master Jie, get out of the way!"

The clansmen on duty came to take a look and immediately shouted at the guards of the gatehouse.

Immediately after someone went in to pass the message, the carriage started again, and slowly entered.

After more than ten curves, I came to the mansion where the second room is located.

An old butler at the door stood respectfully with dozens of servants for a long time.

"Young Master Jie!"

Although the old butler had gray hair, he was in good spirits and walked like a fly.

"Young Master Jie came back this time to pick up Miss Feng up the mountain."

Chen Shaojie saw the old housekeeper, a rare smile appeared on his face, and said, "The fifth sister is at the age of going up the mountain, and it is time to practice." ”

"Staying alone in the family and being uncontrolled, all of your temperament is wild, this Nizi, where is she running away now."

The old housekeeper smiled bitterly and said, "There is a well-known juggling team in the outer city, and Miss Feng has made an appointment with a few friends to watch the juggling." ”

Chen Shaojie was also helpless when he heard this, for this youngest sister, he has been very spoiled since he was a child, which has also developed a lawless character, not to mention himself, even the eldest brother can't do anything about her.

Only the second sister can hold on.

Go up the mountain, let's give the fourth brother a headache.

"Uncle Zhang, which elder in the clan is in charge now?" Chen Shaojie opened his mouth and asked, this time he came back mainly because of the fourth brother's business, so naturally he couldn't delay.

Uncle Zhang replied, "It's the Third Elder. ”

Chen Shaojie nodded: "The fifth sister is bothering Uncle Zhang to send someone to find it, I will rush back to the sect later, pack up my things, and follow me over." ”

Uncle Zhang was a little surprised: "Young Master Jie rarely goes home once, don't you stay overnight and then leave." ”

Chen Shaojie shook his head and said: "I want to live, but after going to the third elder, after learning about the fourth brother, it is estimated that they will be more anxious than me." ”

Uncle Zhang's eyes showed joy, and he said, "Young Master An, he..."

Chen Shaojie raised his hand to interrupt: "It's a great thing, I'll go first." ”

Uncle Zhang nodded in surprise.

looked at the back of Chen Shaojie leaving, and his eyes showed excitement.

'Old lady, all the young masters are out of breath. ’

'It's been twelve years, when will the old lady come back? ’

......

Chen's backyard.

There are small rivers flowing here, and there are green trees, and it is a quiet and peaceful scene.

Compounds are located here.

"Young Master Jie, please come in." At the door, the old slave opened the courtyard door and bowed.

Chen Shao's masterpiece returned the salute, and then strode in.

"It's Shaojie, what a guy, for more than 20 years, he has grown so big."

"The last time I saw you, you were still in your infancy."

A thin old man with white hair came from the courtyard, looking at Chen Shaojie and saying with a smile, his tone was kind and his demeanor was close.

Chen Shaojie was a little embarrassed, and said: "Shaojie has been living in the mountain and practicing, but he didn't know that the three elders had returned, and he didn't greet him, and he asked the three elders to forgive his sins." ”

When the third elder heard this, he was a little displeased: "It's boring, let's say, come to me, what's the matter." ”

Chen Shaojie didn't understand what he said to make the third elder unhappy, but he couldn't take care of it for the time being, and hurriedly told the situation of the fourth brother Chen Shao'an.

The third elder raised his eyebrows on the right: "Divine Soul Talent!" But really? ”

Chen Shaojie felt a huge sense of oppression, and bowed down and said: "Shaojie is short-sighted and doesn't dare to make conclusions, but the changes of the fourth brother are the same as those recorded in the classics of the clan. ”

"That's why I hurried back to the family and reported this matter to the three elders."

The third elder frowned, and after pondering for a long time, he said, "You go back and wait first, and after half an hour, the old man will go with you to the Five Spirits Sect." ”

"Yes."

Chen Shao's masterpiece left after the hand.

The third elder's face hesitated slightly, and then strode into the hall.

With a wave of one hand, the doors and windows were all slammed shut and tightly sealed.

The room was suddenly pitch black, which had no effect on the three elders in the slightest.

I saw that he took out a pale golden rune paper, and a Chen character on the paper flowed like blood.

Shaking gently, an invisible fire spread and burned.

The fire left traces, and after the yellow paper burned out, only the word 'Chen' was spreading.

The three elders immediately closed their eyes and entangled the power of their divine souls around them.

The next moment, when I opened my eyes, I had already come to a place like an ancestral hall.

"Okay, you're a third child, it's only been four or five years, you guy burned the ancestral ancestral hall talisman, a ruined family! Do you know how expensive this thing is? ”

"Okay, the seventh young man said a few words, since the third child called me to wait, there is a big matter to discuss."

"Made, Lao Tzu is catching a big worm, if you don't give an explanation, Lao Tzu will definitely come back to you to compensate."

"Silence! It's rare to get together once, what kind of system is so noisy, the time is limited, and the third child hurries up to get down to business. ”

As the voice sounded, there were more than a dozen vague figures in the ancestral hall abruptly.

The three elders are sitting on the top at the moment, behind them are the tokens of the ancestors of the Chen family, and the dim candle flame looks a little eerie.

Outside the blurred window, there was a large gray fog, and if you listened carefully, it would be like a screaming sound echoing.

The third elder originally wanted to say a few words, but when he heard the boss speak, he snorted coldly, and then told about the awakening of Chen Shao'an's soul in the second room and one vein.

"The soul is awakened, I'll be obedient, isn't this our Chen family going to heaven?"

"The stakes are very high, the third child immediately went to the Five Spirits Sect to confirm it."

"Hey, the third child has a fart, is it possible that he will still probe the soul, what is the difference between being blind and blind."

Hearing this, the third elder couldn't hold back any longer: "Old Seven, it was my fault at the beginning, no matter how you say it, I am your third brother, speak to me politely." ”

As soon as he heard this, Lao Qi suddenly exploded: "You still have the face to say, if it weren't for you, Lao Tzu would at least be a general now, and maybe he could still have a knighthood." ”

The boss said loudly: "Hundreds of years have passed, and now is not the time to discuss this." ”

According to the situation that the third child said, the awakening of the divine soul is generally not wrong, even if this is the case, he will take out the gold liquid and help him open his spirit. When my Chen family arrives in our generation, it can be regarded as a big man. ”

"Brothers, but what objections do you have?"

After three breaths, the boss made a final decision: "Okay, let's do it according to this." ”

After the words fell, the entire ancestral hall began to become a little illusory, and the three elders closed their eyes, and when they opened them, they had already returned to the house.

Then without hesitation, he got up and walked out, the world was spinning, and the surrounding scene changed again, and he came to an underground.

In front of it is a bronze gate tens of meters high.

The bronze gate seemed to have a sense, and a vague divine thought swept by, and then the dust shook and slowly opened.

Behind the door, a black mist filled the air, tumbling and rising, as if choosing someone to devour.

The third elder took out an ordinary-looking cloth bag from his sleeve and threw it at the door, and then walked in, with no unusual look on his face, obviously a regular customer.

Dozens of breaths later, the figure of the third elder appeared, carrying a small wooden box with a slight decay in his hand.

There was a thud from the bronze door, which closed tightly.

The three elders picked up the cloth bag that had just been dropped and flipped it over with one hand, and the small wooden box disappeared, apparently being stored.

Step out again, and you're back in the house.

The doors and windows of the walking room were wide open, and the old servants outside the courtyard waited respectfully.

"Little Sixth Son, inform Shaojie and leave for the Five Spirits Sect immediately."
