('Jingwei used the method of space to avoid the eyes and ears of the five elders of Qingyuan, and sent Chen Su out of the Qingyuan Mountains, all the way to the boundary of Pingya. Chen Su was grateful for his gratitude, knowing that it would be inconvenient to send Jingwei away again, so he had no choice but to shed tears with him.
Farewell. Before leaving, Jing Lai repeatedly warned me that from now on I must be careful and think twice before doing anything. We will meet again in the future.
Chen Su said goodbye to Jingwei and was not far from Jiuli Town. She had been out for a long time and was worried about her father's injury. Now that she had obtained the elixir, she wished she could return to her father immediately and cure his injury. Just like that, Chen Su
I ran non-stop for more than an hour, and I didn't feel any tiredness at all. Seeing that the entrance to Jiuli Town was not far ahead, thinking of my relatives, I felt an inexplicable warmth in my heart. Facing the breeze, the corners of my eyes seemed to be moist.
Wiping the corners of his eyes with his hand, he couldn't help but laugh at himself, for such an old man, he is still so pretentious. If his father sees him, he will definitely scold him for being useless.
Chen Su entered the town entrance alone. It was already past noon. The weather was late summer and early autumn. Chen Su's shirt was almost soaked after running all the way. Seeing that he was not far from home, he felt even more anxious. Chen Su stood at his feet
With a little more speed, he turned around and arrived in front of his house in the blink of an eye.
When she arrived at the gate, Chen Su couldn't help but be stunned. She saw that the two gates in front of her were closed tightly. Even the gate of Yunrou's house was the same. Chen Su couldn't help but wonder, Aunt Rou is a diligent person. It's already afternoon, why?
The door is still closed? However, without thinking about it further, Chen Su was impatient and impatient. He reached out and pushed the door. He heard a creaking sound and the two doors opened in response. The scene in the courtyard made Chen Su dumbfounded.
The weeds on the grass grew more than an inch high. Thinking about how my father loved to be neat and tidy, although not spotless, he kept it in order. How could it be so decadent? And those stone tables and benches were also hung with
Spider Web, the stone board on which I used to play chess with others, also split into two pieces. Is there anything like a separate family here?
An ominous feeling emerged, and Chen Su shouted several times anxiously, "Dad, Aunt Rou, Min'er?" The shouts echoed in the small courtyard, but the doors and windows were still closed, and no one responded.
, Chen Su took two quick steps, crossed the small courtyard, and came to the door of his father's bedroom, only to find that the door had been locked. Where had his father gone? Where were Aunt Rou and Min'er? All kinds of questions came to Chen Su.
The joy of getting the elixir to heal my father's wounds was temporarily clouded by all kinds of uneasiness. I turned around and sat on a stone bench in despair. I really couldn't think of where my father and Aunt Rou could go at this time, and my father
His body was still seriously injured.
When Chen Su was distressed, the heavy courtyard door was gently pushed open, and a figure crept in.
"Mr. Chen, is that you?" He asked tentatively in a low voice.
When Chen Su was feeling down, he looked up and found that in front of him was Lu Liang, the coachman who had sent him to Qingyuan Mountain before. He quickly stood up and said, "Uncle Lu, it's me! Where is my father? And Aunt Rou, they
Where have they all gone?”
Lu Liang hurriedly ran to the door of the courtyard, looked around, and saw nothing unusual. Then he closed the door, fastened the bolt, and turned back to Chen Su. He had an uneasy look on his face and kept his voice very low.
"Mr. Chen, how dare you come back at this time?"
Chen Su was confused when he heard this, "Uncle Lu, this is my home, and my father is seriously injured, how can I not come back?"
"Hey" Lu Liang punched his thigh and pulled Chen Su to the eaves, "Mr. Chen, you don't know something. A lot of things have happened since you left. The most urgent thing is to escape from this place of right and wrong."
Bar."
"Uncle, what are you talking about? You sent me to Qingyuan Mountain that day, why are you trying to persuade me to leave now? Besides, I went through all the hard work to get the elixir for my father, so the top priority should be to save my father."
After hearing this, Lu Liang's eyes became a little cloudy, "I'm afraid it's too late."
The more Chen Su listened, the more anxious he became, "Uncle, please don't beat around the bush with me. What is going on? Where is my father?"
"Hey," Lu Liang sighed again, "I sent the young master to Qingyuan Mountain that day. I waited there for twelve days in Qingyuan Town. I ran out of money and there was no news about the young master. Later, the shopkeeper Zhu Mo said,
Someone in the mountains was attacked by a giant beast and his body was not found. It was probably the young master. I didn't believe it at first, so after waiting for another three days, the shopkeeper gave me a cold look and later kicked me out of the shop. I had no choice but to come back."
Chen Su listened and counted the time. At that time, he should be in the secret realm of Tiange, "Uncle Lu, I really feel sorry for making you work so hard, but at that time, I couldn't bring you news.
you."
Lu Liang shook his head, "Don't worry about these gentlemen. It was only after I came back that I realized something was seriously wrong. It turned out that Boss Chen died of serious injuries only five days after we left."
"Ah?" To Chen Su, Lu Liang's words were like a thunderbolt, and he was seriously injured and died. Doesn't that mean that his father is dead? Chen Su grabbed Lu Liang's arm and said, "Uncle Lu, what you said is true.
of?"
"It's absolutely true." Lu Liang nodded sadly.
At this time, Chen Su could no longer hold back the tears in the corner of his eyes, "Uncle, I remember when I left, Doctor Qin said that although my father was seriously injured, he still had some ways to delay it. How could he just
Just five days?”
"Well...it is said that Mr. Chen offended some big shot in order to get a medicinal plant. Someone came to seek revenge, so that's why." Lu Liang looked at Chen Su's expression as he spoke, "It is said that it was the Shen Mansion at that time.
The seventh master brought people here."
"It's the Shen Mansion again!" When Chen Su heard about the Shen Mansion, she wanted to grit her teeth, "What kind of Master Seven brought people here?"
"Yes, although I didn't witness this with my own eyes, many people in the town can testify. After that day, Mr. Chen's injuries took a turn for the worse. He even refused to use Dr. Qin's medicine. Within a day, he was able to support
Can’t stand it any longer.”
"Mansion Shen, Mansion Shen!" After listening to Lu Liang's words, Chen Su stopped crying for a long time, gritted his teeth, and revealed a sinister smile, "The hatred for killing my father is irreconcilable. One day, I will let you.
There are no chickens or dogs left in the Shen Mansion."
"Mr. Chen, people cannot be resurrected after death. Now is not the time to talk about this. You should run away quickly." Seeing that Chen Su hated the Shen family so much, Lu Liang was afraid that he would do something reckless, so he had to persuade him again and again.
Chen Su ran away, "As the saying goes, if you keep the green hills, you won't be afraid of running out of firewood."
Chen Su waved her hand, "Uncle, do you know where Aunt Rou and Min'er have gone?"
"This?" Lu Liang hesitated, "That day, Boss Chen passed away. Sister-in-law Luo arranged to bury Boss Chen. She disappeared the next day. No one knows where she went with her daughter, and no one knows anything about her."
Chen Su frowned when he heard this, "Aunt Rou has always been cautious. My father is gone. Before there is no news about me, she will definitely not leave here easily. What's more, there is Uncle Luo's tomb here. She can't leave without saying goodbye. She will definitely What happened."
"Sir, I'd better think about these things after you leave here safely. I don't know how many people will see you when you come back. Now I'm afraid the people in the Shen Mansion already know about it. You'd better leave quickly." Lu Liang The more he spoke, the more impatient he became.
Chen Su smiled slightly when he heard this, "Uncle, you have been urging me to leave since you met me, but this is my home, where do you want me to go?"
"Hey, you can go anywhere, as long as you leave here." Lu Liang said, lowered his head, and secretly wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes.
"Uncle, could you please tell me why this is?"
Lu Liang raised his head and took a deep breath, "Since the young master insists on asking, well, I will tell you that our place has been requisitioned by the Beizhu Government, and our home is gone. The Beizhu Government has issued an order and is willing to stay." Those who want it can be brought into the house as slaves, and those who don't want to can get fifty taels of silver and move away."
"What?" Chen Su was furious when he heard this, "Fifty taels of silver? It's not even enough for three people for half a year."
"There is no way. This is decided by the Beizhu Palace. Now it is handed over to the Shen family to implement it. It has also been set in March that the construction of the garden of the Beizhu Palace will begin here."
"Huh! If dad and third uncle were here, they would definitely be able to stop them!" Chen Su was so angry that he slapped his hand on the stone table, stirring up a lot of dust.
When Chen Yuanhua was mentioned, Lu Liang's eyes became even more cloudy, "In addition, the Shen Mansion also has an order. Whoever captures the young master and you hand it over to them can be the director of this business in the future. Anyone who provides important clues can also get at least A reward of one thousand taels."
Hearing this, Chen Su's eyes widened and he looked at Lu Liang, "Am I that valuable? Uncle Lu?"
Lu Liang looked at Chen Su, neither affirming nor denying what he said, but there was still one sentence in his heart that he had not said out loud. There was one more thing to add to the Shen Mansion's order, which was to let Chen Su go privately, and the whole family If you want to enter the Shen Mansion and become a death slave, you will never be able to stand up again.
Seeing that Lu Liang refused to speak, Chen Su asked again: "Uncle Lu, do you know where my father is buried?"
Lu Liang nodded. "I know this. I have also gone to worship."
"Then could you please uncle take me to pay homage to my father's grave?"
"Hiss" Lu Liang looked embarrassed. After hesitating for a moment, he finally said: "As a son of a man, it is reasonable for him to go and worship. Lu Liang's family has received the favor of Boss Chen, so they should also take the young master there. But young master, you are now It's really inconvenient to go in such a big way, so we'd better make some preparations before going. Mr. Chen's grave is in the woods ten miles away from the town. Young Master, please wait for me here first, and I'll get you a set of clothes. "After speaking, Lu Liang turned and left.
After a while, Lu Liang came back with a set of coarse cloth clothes in his hand. He helped Chen Su change into them, and dressed up a little more. After checking that there was no movement outside the door, he took Chen Su out of Chen's house and walked all the way. Heading east, the two of them were silent all the way out of Jiuli Town and headed straight for Shilipo. They passed through a dense forest and saw a medium-sized cemetery in front of them.
"Sir, Mr. Chen's grave is not far ahead." Lu Liang led Chen Su to Chen Yuanhua's grave.
A bluestone engraved stele, a gram of loess, father and son, separated forever. Chen Suhan knelt down in front of his father's grave in sorrow, unable to hold back the tears, "Dad, it's my son who is unfilial and has caused such a big trouble. I even caused my father to die because of it." After saying that, Chen Su knocked his head heavily to the ground one after another, and soon blood stains appeared on his forehead.
Lu Liang had been watching quietly from the side, until then he hurriedly stepped forward to support Chen Su, "Sir, now is not the time to be sad. You have a great revenge that has not been avenged, so you should quickly think of how to escape."
While Lu Liang was trying to persuade Chen Su, he kept observing what was going on around him, feeling more and more anxious in his heart.
"Hahaha, you are about to die and you don't know it?" A burst of thunderous laughter broke the original peace in the woods.
Chen Su turned around and saw more than 20 figures flashing out not far behind. Among the three people leading them, one was none other than the seventh master of the Shen family, Shen Yu.
When Lu Liang saw it, he whispered in Chen Su's ear, "That old man is Shen Yu, the seventh master of the Shen Mansion. You must remember it, the young master. Now that the opponent is more powerful, you should run away quickly."
The enemy was extremely jealous when he saw Shen Yu. When he saw Shen Yu, Chen Su was so angry that he stood up suddenly with his fists clenched in his sleeves. When Lu Liang saw him, he quickly reached out and grabbed Chen Su's arm, fearing that he would be reckless. act.
Shen Yu smiled when he saw this and blinked his sly little eyes, "Lu Liang, you did a good job this time. You held this kid back and didn't let him run away. Catch him later and I'll go back and report to the second master. Let me mark my first achievement for you."
