He endured the sharp pain all over his body, raised his head with all his strength, and the internal force in the meridians of his body surged to the hilt of the knife in his hand. His calves trembled and stood up, the flying white birds blocking his vision, but he could still stare fiercely at Yan Wuming in front of him.

"Drink!"

Zhang Renjie's throat erupted with an angry roar, and a knife pierced forward, sharp blades slashed through the air, and several blades flashed in an orderly manner. His internal force quickly poured into the entire Miao knife, the blade disappeared, and even the afterimage was nowhere to be found, but the air around him was tight, as if it was about to suffocate people.

This knife can break through the air!

Yan Wuming looked at the blade that ushered in him, and also smelled a trace of suppressed and deadly breath. His pupils tightened, and he couldn't help but subconsciously relax the internal force in his hand that controlled Qian Ayan, and retreated backwards.

The blade tore through the air in front of him like a terrifying viper baring its fangs and spitting out the breath of death.

This knife can cut the air!

Swish!

Yan Nameless's pupils widened in disbelief, and a beam of blades instantly sliced open his pale cheeks, and red blood spurted out.

Blood beads sprinkled in the air, his body stiffened, and the internal force became uncontrollable as if it had been coagulated.

"Blood...... My Blood...... You want to take my blood!"

Yan Wuming's expression seemed to have fallen into madness, he raised his hand sluggishly, and his mouth was stunned to talk to himself.

"You are not allowed to take my blood!"

He roared, and the internal force erupted in an instant, and Qian Ayan's body was agitated, and dense white birds poured out of the white robe, covering the entire lane.

Zhang Renjie couldn't bear it anymore, and collapsed to the ground again, unable to swing a knife forward. His face turned pale, and he stuck the Miao knife into the ground, trying to control himself from falling.

Countless white birds flapped their wings and circled around him, and beads of blood poured out of his body and floated in the air.

The Miao knife was held firmly in his hand, trembling violently, and after a long while, it gradually stopped.

Zhang Renjie felt that the sharp pain coming from his whole body was slowly disappearing, but his limbs were already numb. He slowly opened his eyes, and in front of him was a dark alleyway, the white bird had disappeared, and Yan Nameless was also nowhere to be seen.

He looked around weakly, and his surroundings were as calm as ever, except for the corpses of the Praetorian Guards lying on the ground, as if they were calm as usual.

He took a deep breath, and after making sure there was no threat, he fell to the ground.

In the distance, the hoofs of the Praetorian Guards could be heard.

Before falling into a coma, he heard several Praetorian Guards hurrying to his side, shouting: "Come on, this is Lord Zhang, he is still alive, send him back to the palace to ask for a doctor......

Korea.

Southern State.

Ouyang Mansion.

Chu Mo followed Lu Xiao, walked through a silent corridor, passed several luxurious buildings, and finally came to a large hall.

The corridors in the entire mansion are tortuous, full of gardens, and its decoration is a little beyond Chu Mo's imagination. The Ouyang family is indeed financially strong, and it deserves to be the big chaebol in Nanzhou.

Chu Mo thought, looked at the scale of the main hall, looked at the dull and silent hall door, and stopped.

Lu Xiao turned around, smiled gently at him, and said, "The master is here, even if there has been a lot of unpleasantness, the master is still happy after all when you come back, let's talk about it if you have anything to say." ”

Chu Mo had never seen Ouyang Zhenhua before, but when he heard her say this, he could only smile politely and step forward.

Just as he was about to push the door open, an old hoarse voice came from behind him.

"Mo'er, is that you?"

The two of them turned around and saw an old man hunched over his waist, holding a cane that seemed to be worth a lot, and a servant beside him was holding him and staggering over.

When Lu Xiao saw the old man, he hurriedly saluted him and said, "Master." ”

Ouyang Zhenhua's face was gloomy, with an unsmiling look, his eyelids drooping heavily, and wrinkles all over his face. He waved his hand at Lu Xiao, and Lu Xiao stepped aside in a playful manner.

Chu Mo looked at him, a little overwhelmed, but he calmed down, made a series respectfully, and said, "Dad, I'm back." ”

Ouyang Zhenhua listened, let out a cold snort from his nose, and said impatiently: "You little rabbit cub still know to come back? It's fun to have fun outside, right? If it weren't for Chu Ming, he was admitted to the academy, I held this meeting, and I wouldn't know if you died outside." ”

His tone was not friendly, Chu Mo looked at Lu Xiao on the side, she just shook her head, handed Chu Mo a look, and turned her head.

Ouyang Zhenhua walked to Chu Mo step by step on crutches, and said babblingly: "What's the matter? How is the position of that county order? After all these years, you haven't sent a letter to your family, why do you still know how to come and see me, an old man who has half cut into the ground? It won't be Lu Xiao who asked you to come." ”

Listening to him count himself with a displeased face, Chu Mo stood with his hands down in embarrassment, not knowing how to answer.

Ouyang Zhenhua pushed away the support of the servant and walked towards the corridor alone, Chu Mo followed with interest, Lu Xiao did not follow, giving the two of them space to be alone. Chu Mo felt a little uneasy in his heart, and he didn't know how unhappy the unsmiling old man in front of him had been with Ouyang Mo.

The two came to the cloister and walked slowly, and the people around them all retreated when they saw it. Ouyang Zhenhua's legs and feet seemed to be quite inconvenient, so Chu Mo stepped forward to help. Ouyang Zhenhua turned his head, looked at him deeply with cloudy eyes, and said in a deep voice: "I haven't seen you for many years, but I am more calm, and I haven't gone in vain." ”

Chu Mo didn't dare to look at him, although he believed that Lu Chuan's disguise technique was perfect and could deceive many people, but in the face of Ouyang Mo's biological father, he was still worried that he would reveal some flaws. The most important thing is that Ouyang Mu didn't know that he was somewhere in the mansion at this time, secretly searching for himself.

Seeing that Chu Mo didn't answer, Ouyang Zhenhua said again: "Back then, I didn't let you go north to Qin State to take the entrance examination, on the one hand, it was to let you take over the family's business, you are my biological son, and the takeover of the family business cannot be interfered with by outsiders, and secondly, because of the war, I really can't rest assured, I'm afraid that you will encounter accidents outside." I'm not such an old-fashioned person, this time, Ouyang Su was also admitted to the academy, I couldn't help but agree, and let all the guests come to celebrate him. Now that the banquet has begun, I miss you being away from home for a long time, but I am afraid of life, so I didn't let you go to the reception, and now there are only you and me here, and there is nothing that can not be said. ”

After hearing this, Chu Mo nodded, and said, "Thank you dad for thinking so much about me." ”

Ouyang Zhenhua shook his head and said, "You should also know that this banquet is not all for the sake of the school, but also for another reason. I'm already old, and your eldest brother and second brother have both entered the court as officials, and they are on the rise. Who's in charge of this big business?"

Chu Mo somewhat understood what he meant, frowned, and hesitated: "This ......"

Ouyang Zhenhua looked at his hesitant appearance, sighed, and said, "You also know that my father didn't let you leave home for the entrance examination back then, just because there were successors to this family business." The Ouyang family's family business for hundreds of years, several elders want to be taken care of by their descendants. The ancestors of our lineage have finally won the right of inheritance, and they can't be cut off here, otherwise what face will I have to go to see my ancestors and ancestors? I am a sinner, and you are also a sinner. ”

As he spoke, his face was full of sadness, and his previous aggressive momentum weakened.

"Now, a few elders see that I haven't decided on the position of the heir for a long time, which one is not eyeing me?" Ouyang Zhenhua continued, "When you come back this time, Dad just wants you to be your father's descendant and hold this family business in his hands." When you come back from the northbound examination, you will be mixed with a county order, and this kind of official position is less than one-thousandth of what you have done since you took charge of the family business, and you can do more in my position, right?"

After listening to his words, Chu Mo found that there were so many open and secret battles in this huge family. He didn't know what he would do if Ouyang Mo was here, but with his current identity, if he followed the old man's wishes, he would definitely cause more trouble, because he was not Ouyang Mo after all, and if he appeared in front of everyone in a grand manner, there would be more danger of revealing his identity.

He silently took the old man's thin arm and walked forward slowly.

Ouyang Zhenhua saw that he was silent for a long time, and just wanted to say something, when suddenly two figures walked from the end of the corridor opposite the two.

Chu Mo looked at it, it was Ouyang Chuchen and Lin Wenbismu, who he had seen not long ago. Ouyang Chuchen and Chu Mo looked at each other, and couldn't help but be stunned, as if they didn't expect him to be here. But when he saw the old man Chu Mo was holding, he hurriedly lowered his head and said politely: "I've seen the old man." ”

Ouyang Zhenhua looked him up and down a few times, and his eyes returned to coldness. He said angrily: "You are here, why didn't you let the people below inform me and come to see me?"

Ouyang Chuchen didn't dare to raise his head after hearing this, and said, "Don't be strange, Master Lin and I are wandering around here, and I didn't notice it for a while and broke into your house, so I must pay attention next time." ”

The old man snorted impatiently, turned his head, looked at Lin Wenbis, and asked, "You are Lao Lin's granddaughter?"

Lin Wenbisan bowed solemnly to him and said, "Yes, Uncle Ouyang, my grandfather and I came to your banquet together and brought you a congratulatory gift." ”

Ouyang Zhenhua glanced at her lightly, waved his hand, and said, "Let's talk about it next time, you go to the hall, and the two of us have to talk." ”

"Okay, sir, then we won't bother. Ouyang Chuchen nodded hurriedly, pulled up Lin Wenbismu's sleeve, glanced at Chu Mo with a complicated gaze, and left in a hurry.

It seems that this old man's prestige is very high. Chu Mo was a little distracted when he thought about it, Ouyang Zhenhua looked at their departing backs, frowned, and said, "Mo'er, do you know what the situation in the mansion is now?"

"Huh?" Chu Mo didn't react for a moment and asked.

Ouyang Zhenhua said in a deep voice: "You may not be clear after being away from home for a long time, he is the eldest son of your uncle Ouyang Chu, Ouyang Chu is also one of the elders of the clan, and he has always wanted the position of heir." Since you left home, he has been trying to push his son Chu Chen to take over, but I have never said anything. I'm still selfish and want you back. But his old guy can't wait, marrying the Lin family, and getting close to the Dark Fragrance Hall, colluding with other elders, if you don't come back, that kid in the early morning will be the next heir. ”

Chu Mo nodded as if he didn't understand, no wonder when they met for the first time, Ouyang Chuchen had bad intentions towards him, it turned out that he was worried that I would compete with him for this position.

"Mo'er. Ouyang Zhenhua walked forward on crutches and said, "Dad has been talking about it for so long, what do you think?" ”

Hearing him ask such a question, Chu Mo couldn't help but feel a little big. He just followed Lu Chuan's instructions and came to South Korea to avoid the pursuit of Skynet, and he didn't want to be targeted so soon, so he had to report the situation here to Lu Chuan as soon as possible in order to make a decision. As for the heir, he definitely doesn't want to show his head like this, this identity that is envied in the eyes of others is like a hot potato in his hands.

"Daddy. I just came back, so let's wait for me to think about it first. Chu Mo couldn't refuse directly, so he could only say tactfully.

Ouyang Zhenhua nodded and said, "It's okay, you think slowly, Dad won't force you." ”

With that, they had already walked out of the cloister and came to a courtyard wall. Walking through a lush bamboo forest, the opposite side of the courtyard wall suddenly opens up.

A huge forest garden, surrounded by white bricks and red tiles, a scene of a large household in the south of the Yangtze River. Everywhere is decorated with huge potted plants with lush flowers. Winding cobblestone paths are crisscrossed with unknown birds flying by.

In the center of the forest garden was a table of eight immortals as big as a small house, covered with rare gold silk and red silk, and full of delicacies and wine. At a glance, countless people gathered around the table, holding jade cups and talking and laughing. Among them, there are many Korean court dignitaries, dignitaries, sons and beauties, and celebrities gathered together, and it was very lively.

Chu Mo looked at it, in the center of the Eight Immortals Table, a dancing girl was wearing a red lotus dance group, covering her face with a scarf, holding a bamboo fan, and dancing unwillingly. He didn't expect to come to the scene of the banquet like this, and he was a little at a loss for a while.

Ouyang Zhenhua's arrival attracted the attention of many people. The old man turned his face again and walked slowly towards the crowd, looking calm and unhurried. The people raised their glasses and rushed towards him, and for a moment there was a lot of noise.

"Yo, master, is your third son back?"

"I haven't seen you for many years, but you are still in good spirits, you must be blessed. ”

"The master is still in good spirits, not losing to the young guy. ”

"Congratulations to the old man's mansion for having another high school son......"

Ouyang Zhenhua was silent, with a gloomy face, passing through the crowd of people who hugged each other and complimented, and slowly walked towards the center of the forest garden.

Chu Mo lowered his head and walked with him in his arms. The corner of his eye inadvertently glanced at him, and among the crowd, Ouyang Mu's cold face was impressive. His heart trembled, and he turned back as if nothing had happened.
