Chapter 16: The Old Man in the Great Lord's Mansion

The night is boundless and starry.

Chi country, after a disaster, has long since lost its prosperity. The earth is drought, and the whole country has become a devastated state.

Every day, many civilians die of hunger, but at the same time, there are people who enjoy the fine food and clothing, some sigh secretly, and some laugh loudly.

A tall mansion, not dark because of the night, the torches that can be seen illuminate the center of the entire Luohe City, the plaque in front of the gate of the mansion shines in the light of the fire, the two big characters "Luo's" are pale gold, and the font is vigorous and powerful.

A figure moved towards the mansion at an extremely high speed, silently.

"Sixth, did you see it? "There are a lot of soldiers patrolling around this mansion, Zeng Hong is one of them, because there is no suitable shift change in the past few days, his mental state is not good, and a black shadow suddenly flew in his sight, and he couldn't help but be a little surprised.

"No, are you dazzled?" The sixth man in his mouth had a natural expression, and Zeng Hong was very uncomfortable, and he responded hastily, "That may be my mistake, let's go!"

The figure who had already walked away paused slightly, and he obviously realized that because of the negligence of a thought, his figure was captured by Zeng Hong for a moment, but fortunately he was not very sure. Under the light of the fire in the distance, a face gradually became clear, this was Shen Qi.

Shen Qichang breathed a sigh of relief, and then rushed to the front again.

......

To the southeast of this mansion, there is a room with a strong antique atmosphere, which is the study of the great lord, in which there are countless collections, and each antique is priceless.

A middle-aged man with a fat head and big ears was lying on a huge chair in an extremely comfortable position, his body completely relaxed and his eyes half-squinted. "Fugui, how is the situation today?"

Only then was I able to notice that there was a skinny old man kneeling in front of this middle-aged man, his face was withered, and his smile was a little weird, "Naturally, it's still like that, sir, don't worry, Although many of the untouchables in the north of the city have died, I have already ordered the people below to deal with it." The only thing that is not so good is that the group of untouchables who barely survived complained a lot, and I am afraid that all kinds of foul language will affect the reputation of the master. ”

"That's good, no matter how vicious the complaint, don't pay attention to it! If it weren't for Lord Lan who sent out food a few times, how many people would be alive in that group of untouchables? Think about it, I'm still good for the whole Luohe City, how can the little grain transported from other places be enough for disaster relief, and how can I talk about helping the people?" The middle-aged man was the eldest man in people's mouths, he gently stroked his belly, and looked at the landscape painting scroll in front of him and said with great satisfaction.

"By the way, you still have to prepare. I received a secret report that Lord Lan will come to Luohe in a few days, and it is said that the legendary Mr. Shi will also come, find some disobedient untouchables to be executed, and let the living don't talk nonsense!"

"Okay, you step down, in other words, your body is not as good as day by day, and you don't need to do all the things in your hands in the future, let the people below do it!" The old man looked at the figure of the old man in front of him who was getting thinner and thinner, and couldn't help but feel a little emotional, this old man has followed him since he was a child, and he was not very rich at that time, but the old man has never left him since ancient times, which is why he trusts this old man the most.

"Master, I really can't help it. You also know that the old slave does not know how to enjoy this life, I have watched the master's business get bigger and bigger, and the status is getting higher and higher, which is the biggest feedback to me. Some people may say that I am the biggest dog leg of the master, but the old slave is willing, and the old slave has never regretted the decision of the year! The old slave will always be the sharpest sword in the master's hand, as long as you don't dislike me, the master. The old man straightened up, and his tone was slightly choked.

......

The arrows were densely packed around the "Luo's" mansion, and the wall was very high, but this could not stump Shen Qi, Shen Qi stepped on the corner of the wall with his fingers, and he had already climbed the wall in an instant, and he clasped his hands to avoid the arrows on the city wall.

Shen Qi was on the city wall, he tried his best to blend his figure into the surroundings, he carefully observed the topography of this mansion, there were many buildings in the courtyard, and the houses were one after another, he couldn't help but be a little shocked. "Such a big mansion is just a residence, this big lord will really enjoy it!" Shen Qi's tone was cold, and his dissatisfaction with the eldest lord was aggravated by a few points.

"With such a big mansion, where will the eldest lord be?" Shen Qi was a little entangled, in addition to the stables and slaves that could be automatically ignored, there were also many luxurious houses in front of him.

Shen Qi secretly thought to himself, when he just arrived in front of this mansion, inadvertently, he felt a rising qi and blood, Maybe if he finds that person, he will be able to find the eldest master.

With a snort, Shen Qi turned over and went down the wall, he mobilized his whole body's qi and blood, and a strong wave invisibly pressed towards the surroundings, he deliberately disrupted this coercion and dispersed towards the four corners of this mansion.

"If he sees it, he'll come. Shen Qi didn't think that he was going to find the strong man in the Great Master's Mansion, he knew that since the person he was looking for had risen inadvertently, he could naturally feel the qi and blood emanating from others. Shen Qi believed that he would definitely come to him.

A faint coercion expanded in all directions, and gradually, the people of the entire "Luo's" mansion felt a faint depression. Just as Shen Qi expected, someone reacted to this for the first time - the old man who had just retired from the eldest master's study, that is, Fugui in the mouth of the eldest lord, stared in Shen Qi's direction, "Huh?"

After a light sigh, there was endless solemnity, "This is the person from that place?" Fugui's eyes crossed many images, and he also remembered the nightmare he didn't want to recall.

......

There has always been a legendary place in the country of Chi, the world of cultivating immortals.

Cultivating the immortal world, Pingyang Mansion, martial arts training ground.

A 20-meter-square platform, occupies a major position in the center of the martial arts field, as far as the eye can see, people come and go here, the atmosphere is unusually hot, the weapon racks listed on both sides of the platform are full of all kinds of standard weapons, "bow", "arrow", "knife", "spear", "sword", "halberd", everything, they are arranged in a regular manner, from light to heavy, from small to large...... The eyes of the people standing here swept from time to time, and some even showed excitement.

In the center of today's martial arts training ground stands a large group of small people, they are fat or thin, although they are not the same, they all have one thing in common, they are all children less than three years old.

It is said that Binh Duong Province selected 108 kinds of instruments from its inventory, including the dazzling jade product Yuxiao, the war drum that makes people shake when they see it, the bronze sword forged with the quicksand of the territory, and the large sword engraved with war tattoos...... But no matter which weapon, it is all unified by the prince of Pingyang Mansion, as the first person in the mainland to cast the prince of Pingyang Mansion is proficient in the formation, can communicate the world with the talisman seal in the weapon, and cultivate a good Dao foundation for children under the age of three, as long as the talent is not too bad, everyone can become a monk, and even if the child and the weapon fit up to a certain value, this item will automatically belong to the child, even if it is a great monk, it will be envied, but no one dares to snatch it, because whether it is on the surface or in secret, the people who participated in the robbery died extremely miserable。

Most of the children gathered here are delicate-faced, determined-looking, although they are young, they already know clearly in their parents' words, this is a major turning point in their lives, if they can get a treasure, then they will definitely be fully cultivated by Binh Duong Mansion, the future is infinitely bright, which will even shadow the status of their children and grandchildren.

However, there is no shortage of boring people among them, a little bit of about one year old squatted on the edge of the martial arts training ground, he weighed his cheeks with both hands, closed his eyes, and let the sun shine on him, as if coated with a layer of golden light, shallow, giving people a clean and fresh feeling. The eyes of the children around him occasionally lingered on him, and then quickly moved away, he was the child born in Pingyang Mansion a year ago, He Wen, the fourth son of King Pingyang.

When He Wen opened his eyes, He Mochen, the king of Pingyang, was walking forward, at this time, people finally saw his eyes clearly, the red pupils made him look strange but handsome, but, in general, these red pupils did not match the delicate face just now, his hair that had not yet grown was already dark, and the sparse long hair that did not match his age was fluttering, and suddenly, people noticed that there was a dark red scar between his eyebrows, which may be the only fly in the ointment.

At the moment when everyone was distracted, He Mochen had already approached, he was like a character who came out of a painting, out of the dust and elegant, he didn't speak immediately after he arrived, he carefully looked at the small dots gathered in the mansion, and looked at He Wen, who could be called a little dot even in the small dots, and I don't know who he nodded, "Let's start, the elders are in place." ”

Although it is a plain voice, but the person mentioned in this sentence is nervous, only to see that the six directions centered on the platform have already prepared six chairs, these six chairs complement each other, the six old men who have sat on the eyebrows are white, the expression is not angry and self-righteous, they have their backs to the platform, each of them will have prepared the log to the ground, and insert it fiercely, this finely carved log is said to be made of thousand-year-old boxwood wood, taken from the deep lonely wind cliff bank, each of which is of immeasurable value, the log landed, the sound of uniformity sounded, like hitting people's hearts, each log emitted a few feet high light, which happened to completely enclose the platform, and every weapon was suspended above the platform at this time, and the place with a sharp edge glowed with cold light......

He Mochen moved, his hands were folded, and then they were separated, his palms emitted a strange light, colorful, it was divided into many ways, each of which was headed towards each weapon, and suddenly, each weapon was like a colored film on the outside, which looked extremely sacred.

"Come forward, use your best strength to get close to these weapons, try to communicate with them, if anyone can get their approval, it will be a great opportunity for you. He Mochen looked at the group of children who had not yet reached his waist height, and felt a little pity in his heart.

"The road to cultivation is so cruel, you are still young, so you can accept it or not, but no matter the result is good or bad, you have to face it, when you grow up, you will realize that only the strong in this world are qualified to stay, and the weak are destined to be eliminated, although our dynasty's protection of ordinary people is very good, but after all, it is weaker than a monk, it depends on your destiny, if you really can't do it, be an ordinary person, in fact, every kind of person has every way of living, but they can all be wonderful...... He Mochen's voice became lower and lower, until he could no longer hear it, and everyone was silent.

All the children stepped forward, at this moment they were also in an extremely solemn mood, after all, this means that their future life path will lead to where, no one noticed, a small point on the edge of the martial arts training ground He Wen's happiness, He Wen looked at the various weapons on the platform, he stared at here for a while, stared at that for a while, his eyes from time to time emitted fine light, his pair of red pupils seemed to have lines flowing, after a long time, he finally fixed his eyes on an incense burner, he walked in step by step, and soon, under the gaze of everyone, finally couldn't help trotting into the platform。

One of the old men is named He Tian, if you count by generation, he is He Mochen's uncle, he has been watching He Zhenwen grow up for the past year, he thinks that He Zhenwen can pray for the blessing ceremony next year, and there is no need to go in so much, so he inadvertently looked at He Mochen, but He Mochen looked expressionless, so he didn't say anything.

He Wen stepped into the platform, he felt like stepping into another world, it was obviously a very small platform, but it became boundless, he used his red pupils to look around, and he only saw that the road ahead was full of lines, he thought, where did those weapons go? And there are so many people in front of him? He inadvertently fell into deep thought, but he couldn't figure it out, it didn't take long for him to make a decision, he crossed his knees on the ground, and all he thought about became the incense burner.

Outside the platform, a look of surprise flashed in He Mochen's eyes, and a smile inadvertently appeared......

After half a pillar of incense, He Wen opened his eyes, he felt that the incense burner had recognized him, he could clearly feel which direction the incense burner was, and soon, he went straight there, and at the same time, he took out a few contemplative incense sticks from his arms, with a cheap smile on the corner of his mouth, as if he was looking for something fun.

He finally found the incense burner. He lifted the hand holding the incense above his head, pressed it against the censer, and patted the dust that didn't exist on his body......

I don't know how long the time has passed, and finally, He Mochen said that the results have come out, and it is already possible to withdraw from the formation set up on this platform.

Almost everyone is talking about it, and I don't know how many lucky children there are.
