Chapter 131: A Family Reunion
"Huh?" Suddenly, a person passing by him exclaimed, "Young Master Lu?" The pedestrian shouted uncertainly.
"Uncle Wang!" Lu Chen also greeted with a smile, he has lived in this small city since he was a child, and he is very familiar with this place.
"It's really Young Master Lu, come on, Young Master Lu is back!" Uncle Wang roared, and the passers-by around all stopped when they heard it.
"It's really Young Master Lu, look, it's really Young Master Lu!"
More and more pedestrians came running, and Lu Chen saw that they were all residents of the lonely city.
"What's going on? When have I become so popular!" Lu Chen muttered, looking at more and more figures, he knew that it might not be so easy to leave.
As soon as he finished muttering, the dense figures in front of him all stood on both sides of the street, respectfully saluting the group of people who came to him, "City Lord!"
"Everyone's gone!" Lu Yunfeng waved his hand, and although the gathered pedestrians were very unhappy, they still turned around and left the street step by step.
"Chen'er, you're back!"
"Father, when did you become the lord of the city, why didn't I know?" Lu Chen looked surprised, he remembered very well that when he left the lonely city, although the Lu family was the only one and the leader of the alliance, being the city lord and the patriarch were completely different things.
"You kid, your father is not a blessing to you, the last time I went out to practice, your Uncle Wen met a mercenary and had a different heart, no, come back and tell me about your business, I also rectified the mercenary guild in the lonely city, and did a lot of things for the people, they let me do this drudgery, you came back just in time, just to help my father share a little." Look at the book
Hearing Lu Yunfeng speak, Lu Chen still felt that something was wrong in his heart, and he couldn't say what was wrong all of a sudden, the feeling was very weird, but it kept haunting his heart.
"Dad, you better let the child go, you know, you took care of the alliance at the beginning, so I'd better forget about my level!"
"You kid!" Lu Yunfeng scolded with a smile and patted Lu Chen on the shoulder, "Hehe, yes, grow up, let's go, let's go have a few drinks with father and son, your mother heard that you came back and had to come to see you!"
When Lu Chen heard that his mother was back, he was overjoyed, he hadn't heard from his mother for a long time, and he was afraid of an accident.
Entering the Lu family's mansion, everyone soon dispersed consciously, and only Lu Yunfeng accompanied Lu Chen to the direction of the back mountain.
Although Lu Yunfeng is the patriarch of the Lu family, it may be because of Lu Wushuang's appearance last time, which makes the couple miss the time in Houshan very much, since Lu Chen's mother returned, they have been living in Houshan.
"Chen'er!" Before approaching the courtyard of the back mountain, Lu Chen had already heard the call, it was such a calm call, but it made the young man who had never frowned in the face of life and death tremble.
"Mother!"
Turning around the dense forest, looking at the figure standing outside the gate of the courtyard looking forward to the distance, Lu Chen could no longer control the tears in his eyes, shouted all over his body, and the figure ran quickly towards the woman at the gate of the courtyard.
"Chen'er, you've lost weight, look at the clothes you're wearing, they're all torn and still wearing!" The woman was originally happy, but when she saw Lu Chen's appearance, the joy on her face was also replaced by pity.
"Mother, it's okay!" Lu Chen was also choked, how long had he not seen the figure in front of him, he sometimes even wondered if he would never see her again, for this, he was not less blamed by Lu Yunfeng.
"My mother heard that you came back, and she is already cooking for you, so let's have a good chat with our family of four!"
The woman brushed Lu Chen's cheek with pity.
"Mother, the meat is burnt!"
The woman still had something to say, but when she heard the sound from the kitchen, she immediately turned around and ran inside, "It's over, it's over, Chen'er just came back, how can you let him eat burnt meat!"
Lu Chen looked at the figure that hurriedly ran into the kitchen, muttering in his mouth, and the tears that had just disappeared blurred his eyes again.
He didn't speak, he knew that even if he did, the figure wouldn't agree.
"By the way, sister!" Lu Chen suddenly remembered that his sister and mother left the lonely city at the same time, and they hadn't seen each other for a long time, so he couldn't help but run into the kitchen in a few steps, he knew that she was not his own sister, but for so many years
down, up and down the Lu family, no one really treats her as an outsider.
"Brother, don't come in, there's smoke!" As soon as Lu Chen entered the kitchen, he was pushed backwards by the girl and withdrew.
"Little one, let's go sit in the courtyard with our father and son!" Lu Yunfeng looked at Lu Chen, who was pushed out of the kitchen, and said with a smile, he seemed to have known that there would be such a scene.
The father and son sat in the courtyard, very ordinary recliners, no luxury, no disputes, just that tranquility.
"Child, you've changed, and I've known you've changed since I first met you!"
"Daddy, don't all people have to grow up, how can they not change!"
Lu Yunfeng shook his head, "No, you know what it means to be Taoguang Yanghui!"
Lu Chen was silent, indeed, sometimes he seemed to be very arrogant, but he knew it very well in his own heart, and he always kept in mind what the elder told him.
"Teacher?" Thinking of Ge Lao, Lu Chen suddenly thought of the teacher, and couldn't help but look down at his fingers, but it was empty!
Swish!
Seeing that there was nothing on his fingers, Lu Chen's face changed drastically, and he suddenly got up.
"Rings, where's the ring?" Lu Chen was shocked, he didn't know what would happen if he lost his ancestral ring, maybe their Lu family would stop there, maybe he would fall, but these were not what he was most concerned about at the moment, what he cared about most at the moment was that soul body, that soul body that had been helping him.
"Teacher, where are you, teacher?" At this moment, he seemed a little flustered, he didn't know what would happen if he lost the Ring Pavilion Elder!
"Chen'er, isn't your mysterious master always seeing the beginning but not the end? What's wrong?" Seeing Lu Chen so flustered, Lu Yunfeng also stood up and reminded.
"My mysterious master?" Lu Chen whispered, "Ah!" Suddenly, there was a huge pain in his mind, and in just a moment, the pain disappeared, and Lu Chen looked around blankly.
"Daddy? Why are you here, by the way, isn't this the back mountain?"
When Lu Yunfeng heard Lu Chen say this, he quickly reached out and stroked the latter's forehead, "Chen'er, are you okay?" Very worried.
Lu Chen held his head with both hands, and a moment passed, "I remembered, I just came back from the experience and was taken by my father to the back mountain to see my mother coming, and the experience during this time really made my whole body tense."
Shaking his head, Lu Chen gave Lu Yunfeng a look of fineness, and then looked at the door of the small courtyard, where the two figures each held two trays in their hands, and the trays were steaming with a few dishes of side dishes.
"Come, Chen'er, this is made for you by my mother!"
Looking at the dishes caught in his bowl, Lu Chen's heart warmed, no matter what he was doing outside, there was always someone here who cared, even if he went out and became a waste.
Because, this is your own home, your own home!
"Why are you in a daze, didn't you hear your mother talking to you?" Lu Yunfeng's middle finger flicked on Lu Chen's forehead.
"Lu Yunfeng, the child just came back!"
"Yes, yes, yes, just came back, come, Chen'er, eat vegetables!" Lu Yunfeng was timid, and hurriedly sandwiched a lot of dishes for Lu Chen.
"Hehe, brother, this is what my mother made for you personally, I don't have such treatment!" The girl muttered, but there was no jealousy on her face, and she was full of smiles.
"Little Nizi, what's the matter? Did you eat less? Who cooks the usual meals?" As soon as Lu Chen's mother spoke, Lu Yunfeng and the girl hurriedly shut up and lowered their heads to eat, they knew that if they said one more word, they were afraid that they would only be able to stare at the table in the future.
Lu Chen chuckled, looking at the various dishes that had been piled up like a mountain in his bowl, and for a while, tears appeared in his eyes again.
"Lu Yunfeng, do you want to eat it!" The middle-aged woman pinched her waist with both hands, stood up and stared at Lu Yunfeng, who was still serving vegetables to Lu Chen, and shouted.
"I, what's wrong with me?" Lu Yunfeng was speechless, looking at the angry other half, and his speech was not very neat.
Seeing this, the girl covered her mouth and chuckled, giving Lu Chen a look, without the slightest intention of opening her mouth to dissuade her, looking at her gaze, it seemed that she wanted the two in front of her to quarrel.
"It's better to be at home!" Lu Chen choked up, how could he see the scene in front of him outside.
There are only interests outside, if he doesn't have the strength, I'm afraid he will fall the first time he goes out, whether it is the mercenary captain or the eight city lords of Gangnan City, or the bandits outside Gangnan City, they can easily kill him.
"Son, come back if you're tired!" Hearing Lu Chen's choked voice, his parents stopped arguing, and Lu Yunfeng patted Lu Chen's shoulder and said.
Lu Chen nodded, then shook his head again, "No, children can't be so selfish!"
"Child, what are you talking about? How selfish!" Mother looked at Lu Chen with some reproach.
"Mother, father, why do you cultivate?" Looking at the three people in front of him, Lu Chen suddenly asked, the three people in front of him were the most important three people in his life, and he could give everything for them.
"Why do you want to cultivate?" The mother was speechless for a while, and looked back at Lu Yunfeng, she really didn't seem to think about why.
"Why do you cultivate, I, Lu Yunfeng, naturally want to return to the clan with the Lu family in the lonely city!" Lu Yunfeng's waist straightened, and his timidity disappeared in an instant.
"Huh?" The middle-aged woman snorted lightly, and Lu Yunfeng, who was still resolute just now, immediately looked timid again, only to provoke the girl to giggle.
"Child, if you have anything to say, just say it, no matter what, Daddy and Mom will always be by your side!" The middle-aged woman looked doting, she had never seen her child for so long, plus Lu Chen went out to practice, it was very dangerous, and the worry could be imagined.
"My generation cultivates for thousands of reasons, and the opportunity is determined, but the reason for my Lu Chen is very simple, in order to have the ability to protect my family, protect my relatives, that's all!"
Lu Chen said very calmly, but his tone was firm, even the previous Lu Yunfeng seemed to be a little worse than Lu Chen at the moment.
Lu Yunfeng's eyes were slightly condensed, the middle-aged woman was stunned, and the girl also opened her mouth, it seemed that they didn't think that this was the reason why Lu Chen was desperately cultivating, everything seemed too simple and too mysterious.
"Chen'er, you've really grown up!" Lu Yunfeng sighed, patted Lu Chen on the shoulder and said.
