The misty moonlight, obscured by dark clouds, looks even more beautiful.
The quiet village was dark and seemed particularly quiet, no longer as noisy as it was during the day.
At this time, there is only the howling night wind, the sound of frogs croaking in the fields, and the howling of wolves in the distant mountains and forests!
at this time.
In the village, a house suddenly lit up.
After a while, a dark figure walked out of the room and came to the door of a room deep in the courtyard.
"Ancestor, the time has come!"
"let's go!"
"Um!"
A male voice came from inside the house.
at the same time.
The door opened automatically, and under the misty moonlight, one could vaguely see that it was a young man as gentle as jade.
Immediately.
Led by the figure, the young man continued to walk towards the backyard and came to a hall dedicated to ancestors.
The dark shadow groped inside for a while.
A slight squeaking sound was heard.
at the same time!
Behind the ancestral tablets, the huge statue automatically moved to the side.
A big dark hole was revealed.
"Ancestor please!"
With that said, the contemporary ordinary leader of the Cheng clan blew the fire stick, and a spark of fire fell on the torch.
Burning torches illuminated the passage ahead.
Immediately.
The mortal leader of the Cheng clan stepped forward quickly to lead the way.
See this.
Cheng Buzheng couldn't help but smile in his heart. His arms and legs were old and he couldn't pay attention. Then he followed up and said with a smile:
"You are not young anymore!"
"Be careful, don't bump into each other."
Hear the words.
The little old man's pace slowed down a lot, and he said with a smile:
"Thank you for your concern, ancestor."
Then, the two of them walked forward in this quiet passage, one behind the other.
Da da!!
The sound of crisp footsteps spread far away in the quiet passage.
Soon.
The old man suppressed his heart and faced the fear of the immortal, and said cautiously:
"Ancestor, you probably haven't come here yet!"
"Yeah!" Cheng Buzheng nodded and said:
"I haven't been back for many years. I didn't have this secret passage at home back then."
The little old man, who slowly returned to normal, began to chatter.
"Hey, ancestor, isn't this for the safety of the family?"
"This was specially developed by Patriarch Liu. This secret road connects the county branch and the prefecture branch."
"This is not the past. In the past, there were only a few people and it was not conspicuous. But now there are more than 45,000 people in the Cheng family, and there are many descendants of the right age. Once they gather together, the ancestral land of the Cheng family will inevitably be exposed."
"Ancestor Liu opened this underground passage in order to hide the connections between the major branches."
"In the future, we will test the immortal fate for our descendants, and there will be no need to gather at Wuyang Wuyang's ancestral land like before."
"Moreover, Patriarch Liu told me this when he came back last time!
When the next generation of monks grows up, a family immortal will be sent to sit in this cave that connects the major branches.
Just to prevent the young ones!"
Hear this.
Cheng Buzheng became a little interested, and then said:
"Could it be that with the current population and power of the Cheng family, there are still people who dare to infringe on the interests of the Cheng family?"
"Hey, ancestor, you don't know?"
The little old man said with a sigh.
"Oh! Tell me!"
"Ancestor!
Although in major counties and prefectures, the secular power of the Cheng family is pretty good!
Ordinary clans do not dare to infringe on the interests of the Cheng family, plus Ancestor Liu started the family school decades ago and has always lived in harmony with other clans."
"From then on, the new generation of family members became more intelligent and more cautious than the last."
"The younger generations of the family will no longer be arrogant and domineering, which is a good thing."
Um!
not bad, very good!
This is the ideal family.
Nor will the family be brought down by unfilial descendants.
This school also gives younger generations with spiritual roots a good place for education.
Of course, if you have a descendant with spiritual roots, you must deepen your studies.
Only in this way can the family's stability be carried forward.
After all, all naughty children need education in order to become the pillars of the family.
On this point, Liuer passed down his thoughts very well.
He is a good patriarch.
Just when Cheng Buzheng was secretly applauding Liu'er's move, the little old man said again:
"It's just too careful!"
"Oh?" Cheng Buzheng said with a smile:
"What didn't those juniors do well?"
"It's not that it's not bad, it's just that I don't have enough blood. I will never take action if I'm not sure!"
"It's a bit insulting to the family tradition."
"Just like the last time we were robbed by gangsters, with the strength of the Cheng family, uniting all the major branches is enough to put an end to the problem.
"But the new generation of branch leaders all believe that they need to use the sword of the government and the power of other families to get rid of those tough bandits."
"Moreover, it must be cleaned so that no one will notice that the Cheng family is involved. Not only that, but we all agree that if the Cheng family is exposed, it will be in big trouble."
"So, I haven't taken action yet!"
"The old man said that even if some ruthless bandits escape, he would not dare to touch the beards of the Cheng family. How can the warriors of my Cheng family be compared to those ruthless bandits?"
'When the time comes, unite with other families to wipe out these lucky cancers in one fell swoop!'
"Furthermore, our Cheng family is an immortal family, how can it be compared to ordinary families."
The last word!
The little old man's tone couldn't help but become a little arrogant.
Obviously.
This is a young old man who values his family's reputation very seriously.
Until now.
Cheng Buzheng also understood what the little old man was thinking after telling him so much.
He probably wanted to shut down the school, so he brought up the matter of bandits.
after all.
He is the highest-ranking ancestor of the Cheng family, and only he can abolish Liu'er's order.
Cheng Buzheng looked at the little old man walking forward and shook his head.
This little old man is not a qualified patriarch.
The new generation should be allowed to come to power, the outstanding tribesmen who have received family school education since childhood.
Only those who inherit the family tradition can pass down the family smoothly.
otherwise.
Even if a family is prosperous, sooner or later there will be a time when it becomes lonely.
What's more, if he offends any powerful people, the monks in the family are all far away in the Endless Sea.
When the time comes, the sky will not respond and the earth will not work. How many lives will be lost?
What if someone here has a descendant with excellent spiritual roots?
The family’s loss would be great!
Although he also knows that the little old man is absolutely loyal to the family, which can be seen from the fact that he attaches great importance to the family tradition.
after all.
The little old man is just a mortal, truth or lie?
He can see through it at a glance.
The new generation and the older generations have opposite views, which is not a good thing for the family.
Cheng Buzheng was walking and thinking.
Just then, a soft light came from the corner.
See this.
The little old man said respectfully:
"Ancestor, we will be arriving at the stable soon. Riding on horseback, we will be there in a quarter of an hour at most!"
"Um!"
Cheng Buzheng responded calmly.
Immediately.
The two of them walked towards the corner, one behind the other.
When he was only one meter away from the corner, the old man turned around and hung the torch on the wall, then led Cheng Buzheng forward.
It's as far as the eye can see!
The passage is spacious enough for three carriages to go parallel!
The top of the passage is inlaid with fluorites, one every nine feet away, making the passage look like daylight.
Ahead, not far away.
There is also a stable, where several horses are eating fodder with their heads down, and there is a lot of good feed piled there next to it.
These are enough to keep a few horses for several years.
The person who is so dedicated and capable must be Liuer.
after all.
Even if fluorite is not popular, it is still used by immortal cultivators!
No one in the world has such financial resources?
Don’t have this ability?
Found so much fluorite!
Moreover, when Cheng Bu Bian saw such a long and spacious passage, he also knew how long it took Liu'er to do so.
At this moment, the little old man turned around, saluted, and said:
"Ancestor, I will guide you from the front."
Cheng Buzheng nodded and responded.
Then the little old man didn't hesitate, walked directly into the stable, took out a horse, and turned over, as nimble as an old monkey.
A crack of the whip.
"drive!"
Da da···
See this.
Cheng Bu Zheng smiled slightly, took a step forward, and walked forward!
