Chapter 3 Birthday Gifts

"The golden plaque given by the Heavenly Monarch is the greatest glory in my life, how dare the minister not cherish it!" Chu Zhan stared directly at the golden plaque on the door, but his expression was a little dazed, as if he thought of something that frightened him!

Tianjun sighed: "In the first battle of the year, if the four palaces didn't join forces, how could this world live in peace for a hundred years! Okay, this matter has passed, and there is no need to worry about it anymore!"

Heavenly Monarch, the ruler of the Celestial Empire, this person was married a hundred years ago, and every time he went out of the imperial city, he was a loner and never needed the protection of the Praetorian Guards, which also showed that his strength as a Heavenly Monarch was extraordinary.

The time was already noon, and the people in General Zhenyuan's mansion were full of people, and it was extremely lively, as if the whole house was about to be crowded. Today, most of the magnates of the Celestial Empire are gathered here, and the Chu family is also very busy. In the back hall, a white-haired old man was holding a young man's hand and said with tears in his eyes: "Yifan, I have wronged you all these years, let grandma see that you have grown taller again! Blame your uncompetitive father, who knows about military affairs all day long, and doesn't even want his own son! Don't leave when you come back this time, stay with grandma!"

Chu Yifan held his grandmother's wrinkled hand and said, "Grandma, it's okay, don't be wronged, I'm very good on the grassland, with cattle and sheep as companions, and white horses with me, my life is leisurely!"

As far as Chu Yifan is concerned, it's not that he doesn't want to go back here, who doesn't want to have a home! It's just that he knows that now is not the time, because he is not strong enough, even if he returns here, he will be ostracized, and sooner or later he will have to be kicked out of the house by several brothers.

Chu Yifan chatted with his grandmother in the back hall for a long time, Nan Yan listened stupidly on the side, and would interject a sentence or two from time to time, which made Mrs. Chu laugh. Time always flies fastest at this time, because most people forget about it and indulge in their own happy little world.

"Knock knock..."

Just when the three of them were chatting happily, there was a knock on the door, and Old Mrs. Chu put away the smile on her face and said solemnly: "Who's coming!"

As soon as the words fell, I saw Chu Zhan push the door in, and arched his hand and said, "Mother, the birthday banquet is about to start!"

"Got it!" Old Taijun Chu waved his hand and motioned for Chu Zhan to leave, and at this moment, another person came from outside the door and said, "I haven't seen you for a year, Old Taijun Chu is in good health?"

When Old Taijun Chu heard this, he immediately stood up, staggered a few steps forward, and arched his hand and said, "I don't know that the Heavenly Monarch is coming, and I am guilty of missing the distance!"

Tianjun immediately stepped forward to support Old Taijun Chu, and said with a smile: "I have been playing with Chu Zhan since I was a child, and you have taken care of me a lot, there are no outsiders here, and Old Taijun doesn't have to make this big gift!"

Although Old Taijun Chu is old, her heart is like a mirror, she knows that this is a golden opportunity, and she must introduce her little grandson to the Heavenly Monarch. Old Taijun Chu returned to the original place, and while holding Chu Yifan and Nan Yan, he said: "Yifan, Nan Yan, this is Your Majesty the Heavenly Monarch, the big man of our Celestial Dynasty, you two salute quickly!"

Chu Yifan and Nan Yan came to the Heavenly Monarch, knelt on their knees, and arched their hands: "Heavenly Monarch!"

Tianjun nodded, and asked with a smile: "These two dolls are born well, I don't know which family's son's daughter?"

"Your Majesty, my name is Nan Yan, and I am the daughter of the Decree Officer Nan Haotian!" replied Nan Yan playfully.

"Nan Haotian, this old thing, actually bred such a quirky little girl!What is your name?" Tianjun looked at Chu Yifan.

"My name is Chu Yifan, the shepherd outside Luoyun Pass!"

"Shepherd, how did you end up here?" asked the Heavenly Monarch with a puzzled face.

Before Chu Yifan could speak, Chu Zhan on the side said: "Tianjun, the dog came to Luoyun Pass eight years ago, and then due to the lack of people in the pasture, I let him go to the grassland!"

Tianjun glanced at Chu Zhan and said, "Your son, at a young age, he knows how to share the worries of the Celestial Empire, yes, the son can be taught!"

Chu Yifan had an indifferent expression, and said in his heart If I hadn't been oppressed by you, how could I be the one who keeps the cattle and sheep as companions all day long! Although the Heavenly Monarch is big, how can he have mercy on ants, so in Chu Yifan's eyes, all this has nothing to do with him.

The time for the birthday banquet has arrived, Chu Yifan and Nan Yan helped Mrs. Chu to the main hall, at this time, the wine and food had already been prepared in the main hall, and the people who came to celebrate Mrs. Chu's birthday were basically there. Seeing that Tianjun and Old Taijun Chu were present at the same time, everyone immediately got up and saluted Tianjun, followed by Old Taijun Chu.

Tianjun waved his hand and said, "All the ministers are exempt! Today is the one hundred and fiftyth birthday of Old Taijun Chu, and she is the protagonist of this banquet.

As soon as the words fell, everyone in the audience said in unison: "Birthday to the old lady!"

Old Taijun Chu coughed lightly, took two steps forward with staggering steps, and said: "Old body and thin noodles, you have come here thousands of miles to congratulate me on my birthday, it is an honor, specially prepared coarse dishes and light wine, please use it!"

After the words fell, everyone sat down one after another and began to enjoy this so-called coarse food and light wine. Sitting on the first seat is naturally Tianjun, followed by Chu Lao Taijun, and then the Red Flame God General Emperor Hong Wuyan, the political official Wu Liang, the Jin official Baili Gudu, the decree official Nan Haotian, and the official Xiu in the long history...

After three rounds of drinking, Tianjun stood up and said, "Since it is a birthday celebration, how can there be no birthday gift!" When the words fell, I saw him stretch out his hand into the air, and in an instant, an egg-sized bead with a blue light appeared in the palm of his hand, and everyone was more or less surprised when they saw this.

"Soul Bead..."

"The birthday gift of the Heavenly Monarch turned out to be the Soul Fixing Bead..."For a while, there was an uproar in the hall.

Tianjun handed the beads in his hand to Old Taijun Chu and said, "It's just a small gift, Old Taijun, please accept it!"

Old Taijun Chu was stunned for a moment, obviously she was also a little surprised by this, the Soul Bead was the treasure of the Heavenly Empire, and it was given by the five real people of the Qiongwu back then, how could she dare to accept this generous gift. Old Taijun Chu hurriedly waved his hand and said: "I can't help it, I can't do it! Tianjun, this pearl is your soul protection and qi, how can the old body be virtuous, how dare you accept this generous gift! You can't accept it, you can't accept it!"

As soon as the words fell, a voice came from the sky: "Collect, collect! Although this bead can protect the soul and calm the qi, it should also be used on those who need it!"

Before everyone could react, they saw a flash of white light in the lobby, and there was an extra white-haired old man beside Old Taijun Chu, who was wearing a white robe, standing with his hands in his hands, and his eyes slightly closed.

Seeing this, Tianjun and Chu Zhan hurriedly stepped forward and saluted, arching their hands: "Master, you... Why are you here?"

The old man opened his eyes: "I passed by here, I came to you to ask for a cup of tea!" After the words fell, the old man turned to Old Taijun Chu again and continued: "Old."

Taijun has a big birthday today, the old man came uninvited, begging for a cup of tea to drink, you won't be unhappy, right?"

Old Taijun Chu's face was obviously a little surprised, his expression was a little dazed, and he said: "Where is this real person, you can come here and make the cold house shine." Come on, take a seat for a real person!"

The person who came was the five real people of the dome mentioned in the mouth of Chu Lao Taijun, the head of the Beili Palace, when Chu Zhan and Tianjun worshiped under his door to practice immortal arts, but unfortunately the two did not have an immortal relationship, although they had entered the Tao, they had never ascended to the immortal.

Under the repeated persuasion of Tianjun, Old Taijun Chu finally accepted the birthday gift and soul beads he offered, and the birthday banquet went on as usual. Di Hong stood up wordlessly with a gold box and said: "Due to the busy military affairs in the DPRK and China, my father can't get out, so he specially sent me to celebrate the birthday of the old lady, and I asked the old lady to accept it!"

After the words fell, the maid in the house took the gold box to Old Taijun Chu, and when she opened it, it turned out to be a blood spirit grass, which was so red that people didn't dare to look at each other. Blood spirit grass is a rare thing in the world, not only can prolong life, but also can be used to eliminate diseases, taking a little can make people refreshed, a hundred times more spiritual, this is another kind of gift that makes people blush.

"The Night Pearl of the West Sea..."

"The Candle of Immortality..."

"Tianshan Night Ganoderma lucidum..."

Compared with previous years, the birthday gifts received by Mrs. Chu this time are extremely precious, and whoever you are, you will be very happy to receive so many good things. At this time, Chu Wenyuan suddenly stood up and said with a smile: "Ninth brother, I heard that you also prepared a birthday gift for your grandmother, why don't you take it out and open everyone's eyes?"

Chu Yifan knew very well in his heart that this was to make him ugly in front of everyone. Chu Yifan smiled slightly, took out a wooden box and handed it to Mrs. Chu, and said, "Grandma, this is a birthday gift for you!"

Old Taijun Chu took the wooden box, opened it and looked at it, and was immediately stunned on the spot. At this time, Chu Wenyuan also saw the contents of the wooden box clearly, and shouted: "Chu Yifan, you... You actually gave Grandma a bone!"

When Chu Zhan heard this, he immediately looked at the wooden box, and found that it was indeed a white Sensen bone inside, and he immediately became angry and scolded: "You rebel, what the hell are you sending, I won't be able to spare you today!"

At this time, the entire hall was silent, the silence was terrifying, and everyone's eyes were on Chu Yifan, some surprised, some mocking.

Chu Yifan looked at Bai Sensen's bones on the ground, and hurriedly explained: "No, the box is obviously filled with He Shou Wu, which I picked under the snow mountain, why did it turn into a bone? Someone must have harmed me!"

Chu Wenyuan smiled contemptuously: "Just like you, the ghost will harm you! I think you did it on purpose!"

"You're talking nonsense, it's not like this!Grandma, it's not like this!" This was the first time in Chu Yifan's life that he felt nervous and scared, and he didn't care

Everyone's opinion on this matter, except for his grandmother Chu Lao Taijun.

"Rebel, the facts are in front of you, you still dare to quibble, I will abolish you!" When the words fell, Chu Zhan was about to do it.

But at this moment, I saw that the bones scattered on the ground suddenly moved, and then turned into a puff of white smoke and burrowed into Chu Yifan's body.

"Bone Book, finally appeared!" a penetrating voice came from a distance.
