On a snowy night, on the top of a towering lonely peak, there are two huge stone pillars that are more than ten zhang apart and more than thirty zhang high. These two stone pillars seem to have been here for a long, long time, and they are full of traces left by time. Under these traces, some incomprehensible words can be faintly seen, densely engraved on this stone pillar.

Suddenly, a gust of wind blew between the two pillars, and there were gradually colorful ripples in the wind, and finally a seven-colored light curtain was formed between the two stone pillars. At the top of this light curtain, a large gray character gradually appeared--Boundary!

"I know he's with you, give him to me. A majestic voice came from within the light curtain.

"He came to fate, why doesn't the king follow fate?" another voice came from the horizon, it was the voice of an old man.

"I am the emperor, not the king!, hand him over!" The majestic voice became very dissatisfied when he heard the old man's words, and his answer was already full of resentment, and even the originally calm colorful light curtain was flooded with ripples.

"Whether it's an emperor or a king, here, why not follow my old way, a hundred years is enough. As soon as the old man said this, the originally unpeaceful light curtain was restored.

"I didn't expect you to cultivate and improve, well, since that's the case, this emperor will give him a hundred years. A hundred years later, Ben Di Ding came here to see his fate. The majestic voice said fiercely.

"It's a deal. The old man's voice drifted away.

......

......

Outside Jingzhou City, a team of people and horses came in the dust.

The first one, about thirty years old, with a ruddy complexion, holding a knife and straddle a horse, and his eyes were sharp, at first glance, he was a martial arts practitioner for many years. Looking further back, there were groups of carriages and carts full of cloth and silk, and the carriages were surrounded by martial arts masters like the one just now. In the middle of the convoy, four high-headed white horses, the name is sweat and blood, leading a four-wheel glazed carriage with a square roof, gilded roof, four horns flying phoenix, the body is surrounded by sky blue jade brocade, and the word is written - Huan.

Jingzhou Huan family, six generations in business. Since 200 years ago, the ancestors of the Huan family started selling grain in Liangzhou, and the Huan family has been a business expert for generations, not only in the private business, but also later opened up the official road. This allowed the Huan family to gradually expand, and finally became a well-known merchant in Liangzhou. In the previous generation, Huan Ji, the head of the Huan family, died early, leaving his only son Huan Bin, who was still young, and thought that the family was in the middle. Who knew that Huan Bin was only fourteen years old and took over the position of head of the family, and he was a businessman and a good family. He gradually sorted out his family's account assets, and visited his old customers one by one, and even Liangzhou Governor. Huan Bin can speak well, abide by integrity, although he is young, but he has a famous demeanor, and he has no intention of being a weak child, which makes the Huan family stabilize its position in Liangzhou. Later, Huan Bin worked hard, did not marry in his thirties, focused on the family business, and the Huan family gradually prospered, becoming the largest official food supplier in Liangzhou.

Later, Huan Bin expanded the Huan family's industry to the realm of cloth and silk. Huan Bin introduced high-quality cloth fur from the northern desert and processed it into high-grade brocade silk, named jade brocade. The jade brocade is soft and slender, bright and bright, and has a variety of types, which is not only liked by the rich people, but also favored by the court, and ranks among the officials, among which the demand for jade brocade in Jingzhou is particularly huge. After that, Huan Bin moved his family to Jingzhou and became a prominent local family. Huan Bin knew the Mandate of Heaven at this time, and was known as Huan Gong. At this time, Duke Huan already had a wife, two partial houses, and no concubines. There is an only son under the knee, the longest, who is the only one in the main room. There are also three daughters, who are out of the side house.

The convoy finally stopped in front of a courtyard in Jingzhou City, which was not large and simple and simple, but if any connoisseur came here, he would be shocked by the seemingly ordinary Mojin Tamar door. Ink gold is already a luxury thing, and tamabi is the tree of the fairy family, soft and rigid, extraordinary ability to break it. The mortal family uses immortal trees as materials, which can be seen.

The leader of the convoy stepped forward and knocked lightly on the door of the house, knocking and opening it. In the courtyard where the door was opened, there was a noble lady standing first, dressed gorgeously, bowing slightly, and leading the four girls behind her: "Welcome to the master!" Huan Gong got off the horse and stepped forward to help the noble lady at the head: "Madam, please get up, get up, don't be so polite at home." ”

This noble lady is naturally the main wife of Duke Huan - Zhu. The four behind her are Huan Gong's other two partial wives, Wang and Liu, and two daughters, Huan Yuchu and Huan Ling. The Zhu family is the longest, and it is also the earliest entry, he is in charge of the internal affairs of the Huan Mansion with one hand, and the Huan family is well organized, and he is the right-hand man of the Huan family. The Wang family is older than the Liu family, Huan Yuchu and Huan Ling are from the Wang family, Yuchu is ten years old, and Huan Ling is only six years old. The Liu family also has a daughter, who has just been born for a few months, her name is Jiujiu, and she is the most popular with Huan Gong.

Duke Huan returned after a long time, and he was very happy to see all the ladies and daughters. But only the eldest son Huan Yu was not seen in the crowd, and the brows that had just been raised were slightly frowned and asked, "Where is Yu'er?"

Zhu sighed secretly, and then smiled at the master: "I didn't know that the master would return so early today, and asked Yu'er to buy your favorite lotus willow cake for the master." ”

"Oh, I haven't seen you for a few months, but Yu'er has grown, which really makes me feel relieved. ”

"Hurry up and blow him away, and come to my house soon, and when my father comes back today, if he bumps into him, the old immortal will have to beat me to death again." Get out!" a young man's brutal voice came from far and near.

When Huan Gong heard this voice, his face instantly turned pale, and he left everyone and stood at the door, seeing a group of young people, about twelve or thirteen years old, surrounded by a young man wearing a golden silk jade crown and stepping on flowing cloud boots in the middle. There was also a teenager next to the crowd, who looked like a child of an ordinary family, lying on the ground, his face was full of tears, and his clothes were torn or dirty, obviously being bullied.

"Young Master Huan told you to get out! If you are not deaf, hurry up, otherwise you will annoy Huan Dashao for a while, I don't mind really making you deaf!"

The young man was so frightened that he stopped crying and sat on the ground, at a loss.

"Liu Li, go ahead, catch that rebel for me, and invite the little brother on the ground to come over as well. Huan Gong said to the man who began to knock on the door.

"Yes, sir. ”

Liu Li is a famous martial artist in Jingzhou City, and when he was alone in the rivers and lakes, the name of the ghost was even more unknown to everyone. Although Liu Li has done his best for the Huan family and admires Huan Gong well, but for this kind of gentleman, everyone is broad, but he doesn't have such a good temper, and he has been ordered by Huan Gong to clean up these teenagers many times before. Although these teenagers are all children of rich families, and there are even many petty officials and eunuchs, they are helpless against Duke Huan. So before Liu Li could walk in front of the group of young people, the young people dispersed in a hurry.

"Young Master, please!"

Huan Yu saw that his father had arrived at the door, and knew that what he had just said had been heard by his father, so he had to take a deep breath and go straight away.

Liu Li turned around and helped the little brother next to him to: "Little brother, it's hard for you, I'm sorry, our lord invites you to come over." ”

Although the young man knew that Huan Mansion was kind-hearted, he was still timid: "I, I'm still not, I won't go." ”

It seems that this young man was not lightly frightened by Huan Yu, Liu Li sighed silently, and then smiled: "Don't worry, our master will give you an explanation." ”

The young man was supported by Liu Li and limped to Huan Gong. The young man saw Huan Yu next to him, moved a few steps to the side, and then staggered and knelt in front of Huan Gong: "Meet Master Huan." ”

Huan Gong hurriedly helped the young man up and asked, "Child, what is your name, what happened just now?"

"Hui, Hui master, my name is Sun Yin, and I am the child of Sun Carpenter in the city. I, the carriage my father made for me was given to Huan, and Master Huan snatched it. As he spoke, the boy began to cry again.

"That's how he bought me lotus willow crisp?" Huan Gong pointed to Huan Yu on the side and was angry with Zhu.

Zhu was dumbfounded, and Huan Gong said to Huan Yu: "What about the things, bring them!"

"What's it, he says you believe it, are you his dad or my dad? No!"

"You!Liu Li, find out the things for me!" Huan Gong was extremely angry, and his face was flushed. Zhu stepped forward to help Duke Huan: "Yu'er, why are you so ignorant and don't listen to your father?"

"Young master, you better hand it over yourself, the little one doesn't want to be rough with you, and the little one has no sense of proportion, you know. ”

"Master, Liu Li is a martial artist, how can you let him be rude to Yu'er, Yu'er is your son!"

"My Huan family has been in business for six generations, and since then, it has always been based on honesty and trustworthiness. Every penny of my Huan family is earned openly, this rebel son has such good family conditions, and he went out to do this robbery, losing the face of my Huan family's ancestors and ancestors, do you still have the face to protect him? Liu Li, what are you still stunned for!?"

"Smack!" There was a crisp sound, and I saw Huan Yu smash a round of small wooden carriage to the ground hard, and the small carriage was smashed to pieces in an instant. From the remains of the carriage, it can be vaguely seen that it must have been very exquisite, and even the dragon pattern on the wheel is lifelike, presumably the craftsmanship of Carpenter Sun must be very clever. It's a pity that now this delicate carriage has become fragmented.

"Wow!" the teenager cried again.

"Evil obstacle, evil obstacle! You!" Huan Gong was extremely angry, and coupled with the fatigue of the journey, he fainted on the spot.

Huan Gong fell ill, and the whole family was shaken.

The Huan family has today, and it is the result of Huan Gong's efforts. The only son of the Huan family is still young, and he is not as talented as Duke Huan back then. Huan Yu, the only son of the Huan family, is a joke of the Huan family, a tumor. The four words "arrogant" are vividly exerted in Huanyu. The fact that there is no successor to the Huan family is something that anyone with a discerning eye can see.

Now that Huan Gong has fallen, it is undoubtedly a catastrophe for the Huan family.

"Doctor Zhang, what's the matter, sir, you should give me an accurate word. Liu stood in front of the bed, crying silently, and asked the doctor who was consulting Huan Gong at the bedside.

Family doctor Zhang Chongyao, sixty and three, is one of the best doctors in Jingzhou, even if he is called a medical immortal, it is not an exaggeration.

He touched Huan Gong's pulse for a long time, and then said: "Master, this is extremely angry, and he didn't take a breath. This problem is not big or small. I can only prescribe a few patches of soothing and refreshing medicine for the old man to take, which should play a role in assisting and soothing. But the master's illness is serious and he is nourishing his heart, and he must not let the master get angry anymore. ”

Zhu took out a gold ingot from his arms and brought it to Zhang Chongyao: "Doctor, you also know the importance of the master to the Huan family, if he has three longs and two shorts, you won't have so many benefits in the future, right?"

Zhang Chongyao took the gold and hurriedly put it into his arms: "Madam, don't worry, I will try my best to save the master." ”

The next day, Huan Gong woke up from his slumber, but he looked haggard and his qi was too weak to mention.

Zhang Chongyao came to see Huan Gong for several days in a row, and tried his best, but Huan Gong's condition did not improve, which made the Huan family anxious.

Lianqiong Mountain is the first holy place in Jingzhou Fancheng. It is named because it towers into the sky and seems to be connected to the sky. Although Lianqiongshan is only a mortal dojo, there are occasional true immortals who have attained the Tao to open the altar here to preach the Dharma and solve the confusion of sentient beings, which makes Lianqiongshan incense continuous.

Since Duke Huan's condition has never improved, the eldest lady Zhu proposed to go to Baishan to ask for a signature. A family of ladies came to the top of the mountain in front of the Laojun Palace, pious worship, generous almsgiving, and then in front of the statue of the Laojun to ask for a signature: the great disaster is difficult to save the head of the immortal, the old man of the moon knocked three times.

Everyone was puzzled, so please go out of the hall to the master to sign. The master asked the Ming Huan family about the ins and outs of what the family wanted, and then spit out two words to the crowd: "Red things." ”
