ps: Thanks to book friend Ma Sanshan for the reward of 15,000 starting coins.
The dog he raised was killed, which made Shen Mo very angry and more troublesome.
Shen Jiaxiong dominates Tongzhou Prefecture, and there is not much to do. With Shen Rong's ability, he can take care of it in an orderly manner.
Shen Rong was loyal enough, and he used it quite smoothly, but now he was killed like this. Where could he find such a person again?
At this time, the servant said cautiously: "Master, the people of the Chu family are waiting outside. They said that this incident was just an accident, and they have absolutely no intention of conflict with my Shen family.
As long as the Shen family is willing to expose this matter, everything will be easy to talk about."
Shen Mo raised his eyebrows: "Is everything easy to talk about? The Chu family is quite sensible. Call the people from the Chu family over here."
In the living room, Butler Chen bowed to Shen Mo with a humble attitude: "Master Shen, my Chu family..."
"Okay, I know everything you want to say, so there's no need to talk nonsense."
Butler Chen was interrupted by Shen Mo before he finished speaking.
Shen Mo waved his hand and said: "The second son of your Chu family killed my Shen family's housekeeper. This matter was not so easy to resolve.
But for the sake of your Chu family’s sincerity this time, I’ll just tolerate it once and won’t go into details.”
Butler Chen just breathed a sigh of relief when he heard Shen Mo say calmly: "I can't bear to give away the white-haired person of your family to the black-haired person. So what about Chu Xiu? Just destroy his martial arts and teach him a lesson."
After hearing this, Butler Chen was shocked. If he abolished his martial arts, it would be the same as killing Chu Xiu!
Just as he was about to say something, he saw Shen Mo's face darken and said: "Don't refuse! You Chu family are not qualified to refuse now. I am already magnanimous enough.
Tomb Sweeping Day is coming up in a few days, and my eldest brother is going back to the Shen family to pay homage to his father. When the incident comes to my eldest brother's ears, he won't be able to talk to me as easily!
Take these words back to Chu Zongguang, the choice is in his hands, let him choose whether he wants a son or the Chu family!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Shen Mo turned around and left, leaving behind Butler Chen who looked helpless.
The backer behind the Shen family is so big that as long as the backer is moved out, it can completely crush the Chu family.
When Butler Chen told Chu Zongguang what the Shen family meant, Chu Zongguang also had a look of anger on his face. It was obvious that he was also dissatisfied with the Shen family's tyranny.
Steward Chen on the side said in a low voice: "Master, otherwise I will go and seek refuge with the Northern Yan court like the second young master said.
No matter how strong and domineering the Canglan Sword Sect is, can it still be bigger than the Northern Yan court?"
Chu Zongguang shook his head and said: "Absolutely not! Old Chen, you know those things about me. Now I am studying that thing at a critical moment. Where can I have time to be distracted and deal with these things?
I have already told Chu Xiu, this rebellious son, to be more honest, but he just refused to listen, and now something has happened, and it may even involve my entire Chu family!"
Chu Zongguang's face showed a hint of coldness and said: "Steward Chen, go tell Shen Mo that I agree to his conditions. If you invite him to the Chu family for a drink tonight, I will destroy Chu Xiu in public and give him an explanation. ."
Butler Chen hesitated and said: "But the second young master's talent is still pretty good. In the future..."
Chu Zongguang waved his hand directly and said: "The future is the future, let him bear the responsibility for the things he caused by himself!
I have remembered what happened to the Shen family this time. When I successfully research that thing in the future and my strength improves greatly, I will personally go to the Shen family to recover this debt!
Also, I, Chu Zongguang, don’t only have one son. Chu Xiu’s rebellious son is too aggressive in character and is not suitable for running the family. This time I will abolish his martial arts, spare his life, and let him be a rich man. Don’t think about that.
How useless."
Butler Chen shook his head. Since Chu Zongguang had done this, he could only do it.
At this time, the Chu family also began to prepare a banquet to welcome Shen Mo.
Chu Zongguang's decision was not intended to be hidden from others. When Gao Bei got the news from others, he was shocked. He quickly took a pile of food and pretended to deliver food to Chu Xiu before entering the ancestral hall.
The person guarding the ancestral hall was a disciple of the Chu family's blood coagulation realm, and several servants of the Chu family. Gao Bei wanted to see Chu Xiu, but they didn't stop him. To be honest, they didn't agree with Chu Zongguang's approach.
It would be too cowardly to kill a housekeeper of the Shen family and then have to use his own son's martial arts to pay for the crime.
In the ancestral hall, Chu Xiu looked calm. When he saw Gao Bei walking in, Chu Xiu frowned and said, "Have things changed outside?"
Gao Bei put down the food box and lowered his voice to Chu Xiu: "Master, what's wrong! Shen Mo, the head of the Shen family, actually asked you to give up your martial arts to atone for your crime, but the master agreed! Shen Mo will come over in the evening, and the master is ready.
I will cripple your martial arts in public and give Shen Mo an explanation!"
Chu Xiu's face suddenly showed a hint of coldness. This old man of his is really capable of killing someone!
For a martial artist, destroying a person's martial arts is simply a life worse than death, and it is no different from killing him.
What really made Chu Xiu unbelievable was that Chu Zongguang could agree to such outrageous conditions. Is it because the Shen family is too strong or is he, Chu Zongguang, too cowardly?
"Sir, what should we do now? How about I notify Ma Kuo and ask them to help?"
Chu Xiu shook his head and said: "It's useless. Ma Kuo hasn't reached the blood coagulation realm yet. Even he can't rush in from the Chu family, and I can't get out either."
Chu Xiu, the blood coagulation realm warrior who is guarding the ancestral hall, can definitely kill him, but the problem is that he doesn't have a Yanling sword by his side now, only a short sword. It will take some time to kill him, and this period
There was enough time for Chu Zongguang to arrive.
Although there is only a level difference between blood coagulation and innateness, it is also a small bottleneck.
As long as there is a bottleneck, after crossing it, there will be a surge in strength. With Chu Xiu's current strength, he has no confidence at all against Chu Zongguang.
Moreover, time is a little too tight now. It is already noon, and Shen Mo will come over in the evening. If there are a few more days, Chu Xiu can ask Ma Kuo to go to Shangmang Mountain to find Han Bao and ask Han Bao to take action.
Save him, but it's too late now.
Chu Xiu thought for a while, and a terrifying cold light appeared in his eyes.
There are pens and papers in the ancestral hall, which are usually used to record the date of worship and other things.
Chu Xiu wrote something on the paper, folded it and handed it to Gao Bei. He said in a deep voice: "Go and give this paper to Ma Kuo and ask him to put it with those three weirdos. After they get the things,
After that, Ma Kuo was asked to leave immediately and return to Shangmang Mountain.
And you yourself too, after giving the paper to Ma Kuo, you immediately leave Tongzhou Prefecture with the caravan and go to Qingyuan Town. Remember, after you leave, don’t come back again!"
There was a look of shock in Gao Bei's eyes, and he sent himself and Ma Kuo away. Although he didn't know the details of what Chu Xiu was going to do, Gao Bei could vaguely guess it.
Just as he was about to say something, Chu Xiu shouted directly: "Time is urgent, there is no time to talk nonsense, just do what I say!"
Gao Bei gritted his teeth, placed the paper close to his body, and left the ancestral hall.
Chu Xiu opened the food box expressionlessly, which contained his favorite rice wine, a golden pheasant and side dishes.
He poured a glass of wine with a calm expression and tore off a chicken leg, but at this moment, Chu Xiu's eyes revealed a hint of murderous intent.
He couldn't take the position of heir to the Chu family, and his plans couldn't keep up with the changes.
Chu Xiu didn't want things to come to this point, but he didn't want to lose his martial arts, so everyone else had no choice but to die!
At night, the Chu family's mansion was brightly lit, and Shen Mo arrived as promised. Shen Mo was very satisfied with the Chu family's knowledge and interests.
Shen Mo just brought a few confidants to the Chu family. Chu Zongguang directly took Chu Kai, Chu Sheng, who had just been released, and some elders of the Chu family to personally come out to greet them.
"The Master Shen's coming this time really brings glory to our Chu family. The banquet has been prepared. Please come in."
A hypocritical smile appeared on Chu Zongguang's face. Although he also secretly hated Shen Mo's strength, he still had to lower his head when he was under the eaves. Since he was not prepared to be an enemy of the Shen family, what about face?
It must be done enough.
Shen Mo cupped his hands casually and said, "Master Chu, you're welcome."
After everyone sat down in the living room, Chu Zongguang raised his wine glass to Shen Mo and said, "Master Shen, the fact that my traitorous son killed Shen Rong is really a misunderstanding. That traitorous son has always been restless. I don't know what happened during this period."
He has caused so much trouble, today I will destroy him in front of you, Master Shen, to make amends to you, Master Shen!"
Shen Mo nodded and said: "In a martial arts family like ours, the most important thing for a disciple is to abide by the rules. If there are no rules, there will be no success. Then Chu Xiu should really teach him a lesson."
Chu Zongguang waved his hand and said in a deep voice: "Go and bring Chu Xiu over to me!"
After a while, the blood coagulation realm warrior from the Chu family brought Chu Xiu over.
This was the first time Shen Mo met Chu Xiu, but this first meeting made him feel a little strange.
Chu Xiu should have understood his situation at this time. He was deprived of all his power and had to lose his martial arts skills. Why didn't he show any panic on his face, but he was still very calm?
Chu Zongguang snorted coldly, and just as he was about to say something, he heard a loud bang, the door of the Chu family was blasted open, and screams came from the front yard.
