Chapter 2 Cause and Effect Break the Golden Bell

The sun is in the middle of the day, although the sun in the sky is still a little dazzling, but the loss is that after the summer, the autumn is high and cool, the most pleasant, the autumn wind hits, the leaves on both sides of the road fall with the wind, there are bursts of rustling sounds, occasionally a few cicadas chirp, as if it is preaching that it has come. It's just that all this fell in Zhong Quan's eyes, which seemed extremely annoying, I saw him riding a jujube red horse, followed by a convoy, three or four cars, each guarding five or six people, carrying more than a dozen silk cloth horses, and several boxes with red satin tied on them. At this glance, you can know which girl is blessed, and the eldest son of the Zhong family has gone to personally give a dowry!

"Phew, fuck, the Yang family doesn't know how to do it, let Lao Tzu, a rich and noble family, not enter, but he wants to marry a poor boy, hum!" Thinking of this, Zhong Quan's heart was even more angry, originally a few days ago wandering around the city, I happened to meet a woman, that look, than those concubines in the family I don't know how much more beautiful, that figure, than the girl in the Chunfeng Building, more exquisite, since that day, the eldest son of the Zhong family is not thinking about tea, not wanting to eat, even going to the Chunfeng Building can not raise much interest. Looking at those girls, I only feel that they are vulgar, and occasionally venting, they are also hasty and boring. No, yesterday, the person sent out could be regarded as having news, and the woman was a girl from the Yang family in Shuangxi Village outside the city, and her name was Xiu'er. After hearing the news, the eldest prince immediately had the spirit and ordered to prepare the dowry immediately. Today is the time to propose.

But when I arrived at Yang's house, I found that today was a good day, and it was not our family who proposed marriage. The eldest prince looked at the half pig and two coarse cloths prepared by the Li family in Shuangxi Village, and then looked at the two carriages in his own house, and said in his heart, poor boy, he still wants to marry his daughter-in-law for this little thing, and he didn't wake up! So, under the persuasion of his own matchmaker, and under the heavy dowry of our Zhong family, that old man Yang can be regarded as going to deal with this family business, and then look at the delicate little beauty next to him, hehe, he is going to become the daughter-in-law of our Zhong family! It's just that people are not as good as heaven, that Yang Laohan's daughter-in-law suddenly broke open the door and hurriedly broke in, and without saying a word, she agreed to the Li family's proposal, which also kicked us out, and before leaving, he looked at the poor boy of the Li family who was stupid, and the eldest son was almost so angry that he vomited blood.

"Childe, Zhong Li said that the matter of the Yang family was mixed up by a fortune teller!"

"Where's the stinking one!" Zhong Quan asked after glancing at the visitor.

"I was brought back to the house by Zhong Li!"

......

Jiangcheng, Zhongfu

Chen Mo stood in the courtyard, looked around for a while, often shook his head, sighed occasionally, looked up at the sky again, thought for a while what time it was, pushed his fingers several times, and sighed. looked at the man who brought him in, and asked, "I think you have a bit of martial arts, how did you become a lackey of the Zhong family!"

When Zhong Li heard this, he opened his mouth and shouted, "What do you have to do with it! When the eldest prince comes back, you will look good!"

"Eldest son, why don't you see your master?"

"Listening to you, you're afraid you're from out of town, right? Otherwise, how dare you say bad things about my Zhong family! My lord is unwell, besides, what kind of identity do you have, how dare you see my lord!"

When Chen Mo heard this, he didn't speak, but his brows were slightly furrowed, he looked around for a while, stretched out his right hand and deliberated a few times, only to see that his thumb suddenly stopped at the second knuckle of his middle finger, his heart was settled, and his brows were also stretched.

"Zhong Li, who is this, how can you be here?" I saw a middle-aged man, about forty or fifty years old, wearing a dark blue dress and a slightly bloated figure, glanced at Chen Mo, and asked Zhong Li.

"Steward Wei, this kid is a fortune teller, but he is spreading rumors outside, saying that my Zhong family has a disaster of annihilation, which happened to be heard by me, and I specially brought it back and handed it over to the son!"

"Hmm, I want to see who it is?" After speaking, Steward Wei walked up to Chen Mo, and when he saw Chen Mo's appearance clearly, Steward Wei first frowned, and then his face was happy, and he said to Chen Mo, "What's your name?"

"Under the surname Chen, a single name is an ink character. ”

"Huh, Chen Mo, how old is this year?"

"Twenty years old!"

"Twenty years old, sure enough!" Steward Wei's face was even more joyful, his hands clenched into fists, restraining himself so as not to lose his temper!

Looking at the direction of Steward Wei's departure, and remembering the abrupt joy just now, Chen Mo deduced a few times with his fingers, but this time it was a blur, and he couldn't see anything clearly, it was really unpredictable!

......

Steward Wei did not leave the Zhong Mansion, but came to his own room, only to see him hurriedly push open the door, a few steps to the desk, took out a note from his arms, lifted the pen and ink on the table and scribbled a few words on it, and carefully rolled it up, the index finger slightly curled under his lips, and then a sharp whistle sounded, and after a while, a pigeon flew, and then the Wei steward stuffed the note into the letterhead of the pigeon's right leg, and then raised his right hand, the pigeon flew out with its wings, looking at the direction of the pigeon's departure, only to hear the Wei steward muttered in a low voice"It's been sixteen years, but it's time to wait!"

......

The backyard of the Zhong Mansion is the ancestral temple of the Zhong family, in front of the ancestral shrine, there is a golden ancient bell hanging, the brilliance is compelling under the reflection of the sun, according to legend, the ancestors of the Zhong family have helped an immortal, after the immortal got the way, he gave this golden bell, in order to bless the Zhong family generation of wealth, too, the Zhong family was originally an official in Nanshu, 16 years ago, Nanshu lost power, but also took the lead in treason, opened the city gate, led the army into the city, therefore, this is rich and noble for 16 years, eighty percent is really the work of this golden bell! But suddenly, the sky over the Admiralty darkened, and the dark clouds shrouded it, and although the sunlight around it was dazzling, it was all cut off by the dark clouds, and no one could shoot into it. Look at the dark cloud more and more black, thick, until a drop of water fell from the dark cloud, black as ink, and the dark cloud suddenly dissipated. The drop of water fell straight down on the golden bell, only to hear the sound of "bang", the golden bell was torn apart!

......

In front of the ancestral shrine of the Zhong family, cause and effect are broken into the golden bell!
