Chapter 35: Old Things

"Senior Sister Chen?" Shen Mo heard the footsteps, turned his head to look, and saw Chen Mengze coming out.

"The iron qi in this Xuanjing Mine Cave is rich, and if the stone spirit is condensed, it is often powerful."

"You haven't gathered your strength yet, I'm afraid you can't deal with it." Chen Mengze said lightly, "So, I'll come out with you to take a look, lest something go wrong with you at that time." ”

"That's it, thank you Senior Sister Chen for your concern." Shen Mo said with a smile.

The two of them followed suit, patrolling the cave.

"By the way, Senior Sister Chen, you should be about to have your birthday in the near future, right?" Shen Mo suddenly asked, "Have you ever thought about what kind of birthday gift you want?" ”

"Do you remember my birthday?"

Chen Mengze was slightly stunned, and a burst of warmth couldn't help but rise in his heart.

In the past few years, he deliberately distanced himself from him, thinking that the relationship between the two had faded, but he didn't expect that he could still remember these things firmly.

"Birthday Gifts....... If someone gives me a sachet on my birthday, I will be very happy. ”

Chen Mengze hesitated for a moment or two, and then spoke.

Wood sachets?

Shen Mo hurriedly wrote it down, planning to reveal it to Guo Zhao at that time.

"By the way, in the cave mansion in the future, if Senior Brother Guo invites me to live together, I will find you out, and you will have to stay in the room to make talismans all the time."

Chen Mengze spoke: "If you weren't there, Senior Brother Guo would always want to say something strange. ”

"This ......."

When Shen Mo heard this, he couldn't help but hesitate.

I took the benefits and created opportunities for them.

If you don't do anything with the benefits, it's even more immoral.

"Why, you don't want to?"

Seeing him hesitate, Chen Mengze had some doubts in his heart, frowned slightly, and asked, "But what did Senior Brother Guo tell you?" ”

"Senior Brother Guo....... I did ask for help. ”

Shen Mo didn't hide it from her, and briefly described the things he received from him.

"You guy......." After Chen Mengze found out, he was ashamed and annoyed, and suddenly remembered the previous birthday gift: "Earlier, you asked me about my birthday gift, is it too?" ”

"Senior Brother Guo really didn't have an idea, so he asked me to ask." Shen Mo scratched his head and admitted it very simply.

Hearing this, the original hope and emotion in Chen Mengze's heart suddenly turned into shame.

Don't talk to him again!

.........

Two hours later, Shen Mo and Chen Mengze inspected the Xuanjing vein, and then found a stone step to sit down and rest temporarily.

"Hey, seriously, what do you think of Senior Brother Guo?"

Chen Mengze held back for two hours, and finally couldn't help it and took the lead in speaking.

"Yes, a good man." Out of professional ethics, Shen Mo still gave a good evaluation.

"Back then, my father was willing to recruit you as a son-in-law."

"That's just Uncle Chen's wishful thinking, feelings are such a thing, after all, they still need to be happy with each other."

Shen Mo was stunned when she suddenly mentioned this, and she was a little puzzled.

Could it be ...... Chen Mengze still has some feelings for himself?

But back then, the original owner was very positive about this matter.

It was Chen Mengze who took the initiative to refuse, and then became much colder to him.

Seeming to see Shen Mo's doubts, Chen Mengze said, "Do you know why I didn't want to at that time?" ”

"Why?"

"You're too weak."

Chen Mengze opened his mouth mercilessly.

Disgusted.

Shen Mo couldn't help touching his nose, but he had nothing to say.

Before the crossing, the original owner was indeed a little mediocre.

At the age of more than twenty years, and Uncle Chen's care, after practicing for so many years, he has not made much progress in forging the Fifth Heaven of the Body.

At first glance, it is not a potential stock.

From a utilitarian point of view, it is not a good match to choose a husband.

"I have a blood feud, so I can't find a mediocre man."

Blood feud?

Shen Mo raised his eyebrows slightly.

Uncle Chen went to Linjiang Sect with his father to apprentice, and it seems that there are some stories in it.

It's just that he doesn't know much about it, and Uncle Chen rarely talks to him about these old things.

But now, Chen Mengze seems to have the idea of mentioning it.

"Do you want to hear about my Chen family?"

"If you want to speak, I can listen." Shen Mo thought for a while and said.

"My father, born in the Chen family of cultivators in Surabaya City, the ancestor of the family, was originally a low-level casual cultivator, and by chance, he broke into the ruins left by a monk of the Spirit Sea Realm, which gave him the capital to rise and founded the family ........."

It turned out that the ancestor of the Chen family got the opportunity and knocked on the door of the Qi Gathering Realm, so he married a wife and had children in Surabaya City.

The Chen family was born.

Thanks to the various treasures in the ruins, the rise of the Chen Ancestor was extremely fast.

However, in a hundred years, it has gradually grown from a small family that was originally founded to a large family in Surabaya City through marriage, home purchase, and various means, and finally developed into a big family in Surabaya City.

and the Liu family and the Wu family in Surabaya City, and are known as the three major families.

The Liu and Wu families are both veteran immortal cultivators in Surabaya City, and they have the Xianmen as their backers.

The Chen family, which had sprung up and divided the resources in the city, was naturally dissatisfied, and at the same time, they were also puzzled that there was no Xianmen behind them.

Why can it rise so quickly?

So, send spies to inquire in many ways through various means.

The news of the ruins leaked out of the rumors.

What the ancestor of the Chen family obtained in the ruins back then was just a few elixir treasures on the periphery.

And the inner chamber of the relics of the Spirit Sea Realm monk who hid the supreme treasure could not be opened by the Chen Ancestor for the time being due to the prohibition.

So, the real treasure has not yet been taken.

Nothing new under the sun.

When they learned the news of the relics of the Linghai Cultivators, the two great immortal cultivation families of Liu and Wu suddenly coveted it.

"In order to take away the secret key of the relics owned by my Chen family, the Liu family and the Wu family, taking advantage of the order of the Xianmen in Surabaya City to fight against the extraterritorial heavenly demons, slandered my Chen family for colluding with extraterritorial heavenly demons, with the intention of bringing disaster to the world."

Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demons are creatures of the Nether Realm, and they are natural mortal enemies with human monks.

Today's Chiyan Kingdom is jointly controlled by the five immortal sects.

In order to protect the peace of the country, the five immortal sects specially set the rules, but all the families and gang forces that are vassal of the immortal sect must obey the order.

If there is an invasion of the Heavenly Demons, you need to be ordered to fight.

If there are military exploits, the immortal gate will have a large number of rewards.

But at the same time, if someone dares to collude with extraterritorial heavenly demons, it is also a felony.

When this hat was buttoned down, it was destroyed, and no one dared to say a word for the Chen family.

"Back then, the Liu and Wu families joined forces to slaughter my Chen family, and my mother An died in that bloody disaster."

"My father, in order to protect my life when I was just born, I escaped by luck, and I was in despair, but fortunately, with the help and persuasion of Uncle Shen, I was able to save my useful body and worship in the Linjiang Sect, thinking that one day, I could avenge the blood feud of this family."

It turns out that my cheap father and Uncle Chen have had this past.

After Shen Mo heard this, he could understand that Uncle Chen treated him as his own.

"The world is impermanent." Shen Mo sighed and said, "I am also a parent who died in vain, unlike you, even if I want to take revenge for blood, I don't know where to seek revenge........
