Yu Su's face instantly became blurred, and then the entire space distorted, and Qin Mufeng fell into a deep sleep again. Yu Su stared blankly at the space where Qin Mufeng disappeared, "Alas~" A soft sigh, a light sigh full of love.

"This kid really has the demeanor of a king, haha" In the distance, a low voice full of excitement sounded.

"Since it is the arrangement of fate, he will have to face it after all, and I believe that my child will succeed. Yusu replied.

Indeed, He is our hope for salvation. Of course, thanks to you for teaching him in such a proper way in his childhood, I feel that I am too incompetent compared to you. An illusory figure appeared beside Yu Su, and said with a little gratitude.

"He's, he's just a child, he can't face the things you told me now, please don't tell him the truth too soon, that will cause too much pressure on his mind. Yusu pleaded.

"Don't worry, I have learned a lot from you, I used to put too much pressure on him, which caused him to rush for quick success, so he fell short, I have patience and more confidence, waiting to see him come back again with the momentum of a victorious king. ”

After coming out of the dream of meeting his mother, Qin Mufeng was either asleep, or repeating the same dream: it was still a tree with bright brilliance, or a bleak wind, or the unwilling young man, or the middle-aged man who exuded anger all over his body, or that finger. However, Qin Mufeng never woke up, but repeated the dream again and again, and before he could feel the pain again and again, and before he could call out, his figure flew out upside down.

At dusk the next day, a figure dressed in linen coarse clothes hurriedly rushed into the Qin family's lobby, followed by a group of Qin family servants who wanted to stop him. That figure is Ma Da, a tea farmer in the tea garden under the name of the Qin family.

"Boss Qin, help, I really can't help it, please, please lend me five taels of silver, my mother is seriously ill!"

Martha cried and roared, kneeling on the ground and knocking his head, blood oozing from his forehead due to the exertion.

Qin Zongyao, who was originally in contemplation with his hands pressed to his brows, slowly raised his head, and his face that instantly returned to his majesty could not hide his tiredness, after a night of pranayama, the true qi in his body recovered three or four percent, but he was always concerned about Qin Mufeng's safety in his heart, and he seemed to have never heard of everything around him.

"Nonsense, you borrowed ten taels from the master the year before last, and agreed to repay it in the middle of last year, and the deadline for these ten taels came early, and it was not deducted from your salary, and now you still ask for five taels! Not to mention seeing a doctor, it is enough for you and your wife to pay for the funeral! You are the Qin family is your family's silver number!" A young man named Ah Tie said angrily.

"That's it, just break in without saying anything, what kind of place are you in the Qin family!" the subordinates echoed.

Hearing the sarcasm and embarrassment of the servants, Qin Zongyao was stunned at first, and then slapped the table hard, and the people were shocked and didn't dare to say more. "When everyone is in trouble, if you don't save yourself from death, this world is too cold, not to mention what you usually do, I have also understood your difficulties. ”

Qin Zongyao is colorful. When the servants heard this, they all blushed with shame, and asked who was working in the Qin family, a local gentry's house, who did not secretly do something for himself? Qin Zongyao straightened up, helped up the tea farmer who was still kneeling on the ground, and said: "Brother Ma, the man has gold under his knees, and there is no reason to kneel to me when he kneels to heaven and earth, and to kneel down to his parents. Hearing this, Ma Da's hands trembled, and his eyes were only hazy.

"Brother Ma has a pure heart, Brother Wang, please go to the account room and take ten taels of silver and give it to Brother Ma. ”

"Yes, sir. Uncle Wang replied.

"Huh?" Ma opened his mouth wide and looked at Qin Zongyao in surprise, "Boss Qin...... No, Master Qin, you are so kind-hearted! These ten taels, even if you are a cow or a horse in this life, you will definitely be repaid. ”

"No," Qin Zongyao said, "these ten taels of silver were given to you by me because you have a filial piety." Everyone's surprised eyes were focused on Qin Zongyao, as if they saw the dazzling brilliance emanating from Qin Zongyao, "But, Brother Ma, after you finish treating Lingtang's old account the year before last, you will deduct 20% from your salary every month, until the deduction is 12 taels, I hope Brother Ma doesn't mind, after all, Qin is also a businessman." ”

"Yes, yes, yes. Martha replied.

"The old man is an old fox!" In the crowd, a crisp and immature child's voice with a slight dissatisfaction sounded out at an inopportune time, which made the servants of the Qin family laugh secretly, and the owner of this voice was the daughter of a maid in the Qin family, named Xiao Haitang.

At the beginning, the maid was at a loss for what to do on the crowded road with the infant child in her arms, looking at everything in front of her in fear and dazed, and she couldn't see any brilliance in her eyes, as if she had lost all hope, when Qin Zongyao and his wife Yusu passed by, asked the reason, and learned that the woman had been lonely all her life, found a good husband, and was married for less than a year, her husband was wrongfully imprisoned and murdered, and her in-laws even disliked her for being from a lowly background, and gave birth to a useless girl, so she was kicked out of the house.

It is also the emperor who has eyes, met Qin Zongyao and his wife, who are kind to others, and the couple immediately took her back to the house, so that they could take care of the mother and daughter, and Yusu is very close to it, and wants to worship as sisters, but this maid would rather die than be commensurate with Mrs. as a sister, just because she thinks that her status is low, and she does not dare to climb high, so she stays in the Qin family as a maid, for Xiao Begonia, although Qin Zongyao and Yusu did not explicitly accept them as daughters, they have treated each other like their own daughters for a few years, although Xiao Haitang is well-behaved and cute, and is deeply loved by everyone, but also understands things, and is not pampered and proud。

"At a young age, I have a sense of justice, hehe. Qin Zongyao smiled.

"Master, you finally smiled, don't worry, Brother Feng will get better soon. Xiao Haitang replied affirmatively, her watery eyes full of anticipation.

When Qin Zongyao heard this, his heart warmed, but when he thought of the poison in his eldest son Mu Feng, his brows still wrinkled without a trace.

"Ahh

There was a commotion in the crowd, and they all dodged left and right, as if they had encountered a plague god, and they were afraid to avoid it, and a strong fishy smell came to the air.

Qin Zongyao's heart tightened, "Everyone is scattered with bated breath!" As soon as the irresistible words fell, the crowd dispersed, and at the same time, Qin Zongyao stepped out of the hall while adjusting the few internal forces in his body, the air temperature around his body gradually decreased, and pieces of black ice chips fell to the ground.

Just as Qin Zongyao was preparing to go, an incredible scene appeared in everyone's eyes.

Not far from the lobby, a young figure staggered to the front of the hall, this young man was barefoot, the whole person was ragged, stained with dirt and grass juice, the young man's hair was scattered, and his face could not be distinguished, Qin Zongyao recognized the young man from his clothes as his seven-year-old son, Qin Zhen!

I saw Qin Zhen grasping a rusty old kitchen knife with his left hand, and now there were several obvious gaps on the blade, and there were several cracks on the knife body, as if it would be broken into several pieces at any time.

Qin Zhen's right shoulder was bitten by a strange snake head with a purple-black sarcoma on the top of his head, a knife wound on his right arm that penetrated deep into the flesh, blood stained Qin Zhen's entire arm, and the small hand was holding a black snake body that emitted a strange brilliance, Qin Zongyao could judge at a glance that when the strange snake bit Qin Zhen's right shoulder, Qin Yan grabbed the snake body with his right hand, raised the knife in his left hand, and struggled to cut seven inches above the strange snake, but because of the excessive force, he cut off the snake body and cut into his own arm at the same time.

Qin Yan also walked towards Qin Zongyao, and the black blood dripping from the snake's body also quickly coagulated due to the decrease in the surrounding temperature. When Qin Yan walked to Qin Zongyao's side, Qin Zongyao found that there were purple swells everywhere on Qin Zhen's body, and the blood holes above the swelling were like the scars of being bitten by a strange snake, and black blood was gurgling out of the wound.

Qin Zongyao snatched the snake body from Qin Zhen's hands, froze it with internal strength, and then hugged Qin Yan tightly, the majesty on his face had long been replaced by shock, and tears burst out of his eyes in an instant.

"Uh-huh......" Unexpectedly, Qin Yan suddenly let out a low roar like a beast, and his small hand clenched the handle of the knife again.

Qin Zongyao was stunned, and trembled and brushed aside the long hair that covered Qin Zhen's face. A grim face reflected Qin Zongyao's eyes, especially that look, the pupils exuded a strange bright red, staring at Qin Zongyao viciously, as if he was going to devour Qin Zongyao.

Qin Zongyao lost his mind at that moment, his back was cold, and he only felt as if he had fallen into a dark abyss, slowly, his consciousness was slowly eroded by the darkness, and he went from panic to calm, from calm to helpless, from helplessness to despair.

Although Qin Zongyao has experienced hardships in his life, this kind of despair is something he has never had, even after Yusu's death, although he has also suffered and despaired, he still calmed himself down in the shortest possible time, and resolutely took on the responsibility of his father and even the head of the family, however, the despair brought by making eye contact with Qin Zhen at this moment seemed to be an abyss that he could not get out of in his life.

The horror of despair is not in the things that bring despair to people, but in the fact that when they are in despair, they choose to continue to sink, ignoring the courage they have to seek hope.

"Zong Yao, have you forgotten the mantra that your father taught you since childhood?" Qin Zongyao's mind suddenly filled with a stern and caring word.

"Drink ice at night to eliminate turbidity, and Linjiang purifies the heart with the wind. Qin Zongyao silently recited this originally familiar mantra, unexpectedly, this mantra instantly broke Qin Zongyao's despair, under the traction of the mantra, Qin Zongyao's ice-blue true qi poured into his dull eyes, and finally let him get out of the illusion of nothingness.

However, when Qin Zongyao looked at Qin Yan again, he found that Qin Zhen had already raised the kitchen knife in his hand and was ready to go.

"Yan'er, I'm my father!" Qin Zongyao said to Qin Yan urgently, trying his best to maintain peace, rubbing Qin Yan's angry little face with both hands.

Father...... This word echoed in Qin Zhen's mind, familiar and cordial.

After a while, the bright red in Qin Zhen's eyes gradually faded, and his cold face returned to his former indifference, and then smiled at Qin Zongyao.

This is the first time Qin Zongyao has seen Qin Yan smile since Yu Su left, although the smile is so unnatural: "Dad, Yan'er has avenged his brother." ”

Revenge, two simple words, but it made Qin Zongyao's mood heavier and heavier, Qin Zhen slowly closed his eyes and snuggled in Qin Zongyao's arms.

"Inferior!" Qin Zongyao forcibly suppressed the mist gushing out of the corners of his eyes, and used the few internal forces that had been poured into Qin Zhen's body, but with the infusion of Qin Zongyao's true qi, a strange suction force was spontaneously generated in Qin Zongyao's body, absorbing the true qi from Qin Zongyao's body domineeringly.

As time passed, a cloudy white mist gradually emerged from the top of Qin Zongyao's head, cold sweat broke out on his forehead, and as the internal force left his body without reservation, a feeling of emptiness and weakness instantly invaded Qin Zongyao's consciousness, Qin Zongyao only felt that his legs were weak, his scalp was heavy, and he would collapse to the ground at any time.

"Whoosh!" A sound of breaking wind sounded out of thin air, and three golden needles were inserted into Qin Zongyao's vest at the same time. The three golden needles with trembling tails aroused the vibration of the needles, and Qin Zongyao only felt the warmth coming from the three acupuncture points of the vest, making Qin Zongyao feel an indescribable sense of comfort, and pulsed into the dantian qi sea along the tendons.

With the convergence of the three warm currents, Qin Zongyao's originally squeezed empty dantian once again derived true qi, transmitting power into the limbs and hundreds of remains. The original trance in Qin Zongyao's mind became clear, and the confusion in his eyes was once again filled with wisdom.

The domineering suction in Qin Zhen's body had slowed down at this moment, Qin Zongyao recalled the danger of Shicai, and couldn't help but breathe a long sigh of relief, and then a trace of suspicion appeared in his heart, and he turned his head to look, and the person who sent the needle was Uncle Wang who came back from the account to take the silver.

"At that time, I will explain everything to you, but you must not use your true qi again for three hours, otherwise there is a risk of internal force backlash. Wang Bodao, there was no lack of care in his gloomy eyes.
