"The old slave begged to see his master and son. ”

A humble old man's voice came from outside the firewood.

Coincidentally, the excerpt on the white jade screen was coming to an end, and the courtyard suddenly quieted down, making the old man's voice extremely abrupt.

Chu Liuxian's brows couldn't help frowning.

Chu Mu sighed and said, "Elder Cui, please come in." ”

The firewood opened in response, and an old man with white hair bowed in.

Chu Liuxian's gaze fell on him, and he looked at the great butler of the Shenxiao Mansion Lord.

Cui Laoqi, he has long learned from Uncle Qin that the three masters of the mansion have always been the chief steward of the mansion, and his position in the family is far above Uncle Qin, and even the concubine of the Chu family can be called "Cui Lao".

Although he was hunched, he could still see that his skeleton was very large, and his figure was swaggering, and if he was angry, he would have the same lion's wind.

"The old slave has seen the master and mother, the son. ”

Cui Lao saluted meticulously, nodded at Xin Yi again, and then said apologetically to Chu's mother: "Master, it's not too early, the lord of the mansion asked the old slave to come ......"

He didn't finish his words, but whether it was Chu Mu or Chu Liuxian, they would not be wrong about what he meant.

Chu Mu shook her head, her face was reluctant, but she still patted Chu Liuxian's palm, which had not been let go since she entered, and said, "My son will go, it's empty to turn around, remember to come here for my mother to have a look." ”

Chu Liuxian bowed his head, got up, and said a little unwillingly: "Mother is willing to go with me?"

Mother Chu shook her head with a wry smile and said, "If you are a mother, you won't spoil the good interest of others." ”

She wanted to speak and stopped, after all, she didn't want to say her father's fault in front of her own children, and sighed.

Chu Liuxian's expression sank, and he took a deep breath and said, "Mother, that child will leave first." I came back to watch the play with my mother. ”

Then he calmly saluted and said goodbye to Mother Chu, and stepped out of the courtyard first.

Cui Lao hurriedly followed, followed quickly, and led the way first, with a wry smile on his face.

In his opinion, the relationship between the father and son is afraid that it is enough to choke.

took Uncle Qin and Shuang'er, and under the guidance of Elder Cui, the three of them arrived at Chu Zheng's official mansion, the beautiful mansion of the lord.

At this time. The sun is setting, the moon is in the sky, and it is already night.

Cui Lao and Qin Bo stopped, and Chu Liuxian stepped into the lobby alone.

But see, the lights are bright on all sides. In the hall, Chu Zheng sat in the center.

Chu Zheng is not the only one in this hall, but there are more than ten people. But the seats of the people are exquisite.

In this case, divisional cases are adopted. There is another food table next to Chu Zheng in the middle, and there is an empty case opposite. The rest of the people sat down on the side, not daring to occupy their seats in the main hall.

Chu Liuxian was stunned at first after he came in, his eyes swept over everyone, and he was suddenly stunned.

This was originally a family banquet, and he thought it would only be him and Chu Zheng's father and son. I never thought there would be so many more people.

This question, after he glanced at it, disappeared.

Except for Chu Zheng, most of the rest of the people were children. The older ones were only six or seven years old, and the younger ones could barely sit at the table and eat.

Needless to say, these should be his younger siblings, Chu Zheng's children.

Seeing this scene, Chu Liuxian's already sinking face became darker and darker.

According to the rules of the Chu family, these younger siblings can only be regarded as concubines, so they can only be sideways, and strictly speaking, they are not considered to have seats.

There are only three real seats in the entire lobby, two are Chu Zheng and his wife, and one is Chu Liuxian.

Mother Chu lived in seclusion in that small courtyard and did not meet the people of the Chu clan, so the position of the mother was naturally vacant.

As soon as Chu Liuxian entered, Chu Zheng's eyebrows at the top of the place were lively, as if he wanted to ask something, but before he could ask, Chu Liuxian didn't look over his head and didn't look at him.

The younger siblings next to him hurriedly got up, saluted respectfully, and shouted "Brother Liuxian" in a childish voice.

Their timid appearances were both curious and timid, so that Chu Liuxian couldn't hold a seizure in his chest in one breath, so he had to sit down sullenly in his seat.

There were no outsiders present, Chu Zheng began to speak at this time, and introduced the names of each younger brother and sister to Chu Liuxian, without asking, the previous son didn't even want to see these children, let alone know their names.

Chu Liuxian was neither enthusiastic nor cold, just nodded.

Finally got to the introduction of the children, Chu Zheng endured and endured, but after all, he couldn't hold back, and asked, "Liuxian, your mother...... Is she okay?"

Chu Liuxian raised his eyebrows and sneered: "Mother has nothing else to do, just listen to excerpts, if you care, why don't you go to visit her in person?"

This time, he didn't call him "father", he just called him "you", but he felt very happy.

Chu Zheng sighed, leaned back on his seat, and said with a wry smile: "If only she was willing to see her father, it's all for her father." ”

His dejected face was not pretended.

"It's for the Father to be sorry for her. But your father's feelings for your mother are not false, even today. ”

Chu Liuxian shook his head and was silent.

During this time, he can see that his father is actually not the material for the lord of the mansion, not to mention the general affairs of the entire Shenxiao Chu clan, that is, how can his own housework be settled?

This is a typical kind of love, seeing one love one, each of them has invested in true feelings, and it may be touching for a while, and the same feelings will erupt in other women's bodies when they look back.

What else can Chu Liuxian say?

At this moment, his mind calmed down, not as chaotic as when he met before, and he suddenly noticed Chu Zheng's cultivation.

What emanated from Chu Zheng's body was a yin god aura like Chu Tiange, Chu Youlong and others.

He is also the Yin God Venerable.

At first, Chu Liuxian was also taken aback, Chu Zheng was only thirty people, and he was already a Yin God Venerable?

But he soon realized that something was wrong.

Chu Zheng had mood swings when he mentioned Chu Mu before, his breath was exposed, and if the water of the sluice gate was discharged, the flood of the embankment could not be contained, and the purity was insufficient. There is more than a mixture, and it is not the realm of self-cultivation.

"Outer Dao Yin God?"

Chu Liuxian secretly guessed something, thinking that he would come to serve as the master of the Shenxiao Chu Clan, no matter what his previous cultivation was, the clan would use the law of the outer way, or receive external objects, or rely on the side door, to create a Yin God Venerable.

This is for the façade of the Shenxiao Chu family, and secondly, there may be another cause, which is not something that Chu Liuxian can know.

A meal tastes like chewing wax. Not to mention that their father and son have their own hearts, even the children of those concubines, no matter how old or young, are all silent and finish the meal in a dull way.

Chu Liuxian couldn't bear to stay in this atmosphere for longer, so he had to get up and leave. At this time, Chu Zheng spoke.

"Stay immortal. Thou hast not kept much for the Father's sake. After dinner, let Cui Lao lead you to a place, and there is an arrangement in the clan. ”

Chu Zheng was reluctant when he said this, in the past few years, he and this proud son have really been separated, and he wanted to take advantage of this time to make up for it, but it was a pity that the clan arranged it. But it's not something he, the lord of the house, can control.

"Is it arranged in the clan?"

Chu Liuxian's mind suddenly cleared.

As soon as he returned to Shenxiao Mansion, he was immersed in his complex emotions, and then he was involved in the conflict between his parents, and it was not until this moment that he suddenly came to his senses.

Chu Liuxian came back this time. For Razor, for the Seven Sins in the near future, not for these parents, there is no right or wrong housework.

"Hmm!"

Chu Liuxian answered, then nodded at the relieved younger siblings, turned around and walked out of the lobby.

Outside, Cui Lao has been waiting, and he was unaware of what was happening in the lobby, and saluted respectfully: "Childe, come with the old slave." ”

Chu Liuxian also asked where to go, but followed Cui Lao all the way through the Shenxiao Mansion until he walked under the screen-like mountain against which he was leaning.

It was already spectacular from a distance, but when I got closer, I felt that the whole mountain took up all the vision, and the moonlight and stars fell on it, reflecting dark spots.

Chu Liuxian looked at it with extreme eyes, and easily judged that every spot was a cave, and similar caves were almost insignificant on the entire mountain wall.

"Elder Cui, where are we going?"

When Chu Liuxian arrived at this time, he said the first words after leaving the lobby.

Cui Lao in front of him breathed a sigh of relief, as if the depressing atmosphere before was about to make him unbearable, and said with a smile on his face: "We are going to the bottom of the Wuxiang Wall, where there are people arranged by the elder group waiting for Gongzi." ”

"What happens after that is not known to people like old slaves. ”

Chu Liuxian nodded, silently recited "Wuxiangbi" a few times in his heart, and didn't ask any more.

The Shenxiao Chu clan used the secret method of thoughtless empty thoughts as the secret method of the town clan, and this large-scale mountain wall was named after the Wuxiang wall, and he couldn't help but think of it in that direction.

Speaking kung fu, under the guidance of Cui Lao, Chu Liuxian walked to the bottom of the mountain wall.

In front, there are acres of fields, houses, wells, and oxen, and flowers and plants are planted in the fields, or rice is planted, and all kinds of spiritual grasses are planted in the sky at will.

Next to the fields, in front of the house, under the old trees, many old men and women were scattered, and the sound of talking and laughing faintly came.

Seeing this scene, Chu Liuxian's pace slowed down, and he had an indescribable weird feeling.

The field is a spiritual field, and planting those ordinary rice flowers and plants is a tyrannical thing, and the spiritual grass is a treasure of heaven and earth, but it is planted like a weed.

These are strange places, and what makes Chu Liuxian feel even more strange are those people who are chatting under the moon and enjoying the coolness like ordinary old men and women in mortal villages, and the breath on their bodies inexplicably makes him feel extremely familiar.

In a place where he could barely get a general idea of the situation in the village, Cui Lao, who was leading the way in front, suddenly stopped, and one sideways let Chu Liuxian out, and said: "Childe, there is a forbidden place in the clan ahead, and you can't approach it without the permission of the elder group, so the old slave can only be sent here." ”

"Forbidden land?"

Chu Liuxian's doubts could only be hidden in his heart, although he had a strange feeling everywhere here, but compared to the name of the Shenxiao Chu Clan's forbidden land, it was still incommensurate.

At this time, it was useless to say more, and after Chu Liuxian said goodbye to Cui Lao, he stepped into the village alone. (To be continued......)
