A few days later, Li Yue brought several clan members to Jiuhua Mountain, took out the secret sealing letter written by his grandfather himself, and handed it to Chen Yuqian, the real person of the Chen family who is now in charge of Jiuhua Mountain.
…………
In the Biyun Hall of Jiuhua Mountain, Chen Yuqian, who was wearing a red robe and a red gourd hanging around his waist, was looking at a letter in his hand, his brows furrowed. Although nothing could be seen on his face, if you look carefully, you could see that You can see a hint of embarrassment in his eyes.
With Chen Yuqian's foundation-building level of cultivation, there was no need to come out to meet a junior like Li Yue.
However, since the Li family was the loyal henchmen of the Chen family, and the two families were still married, Chen Yuqian could not directly express his refusal.
This is not because the Chen family is not loyal enough, but because the Chen family currently cannot provide enough manpower!
Chen Jinghua is now seizing the time to practice in seclusion, hoping to reach the ninth level of foundation building as soon as possible in preparation for breaking through the Zi Mansion.
Chen Huatian and Chen Huayu left their family secrets and headed to the Yunduan Mountains to search for the Star Soul Fruit.
Chen Yuwei and Chen Shiyun were out inquiring about Lin Xuan's whereabouts, although Chen Yuqian had already notified them and asked them to come back early.
But I won’t be able to come back in a while!
Even he himself forced himself out of seclusion and came to sit in Jiuhua Mountain to take charge of the overall situation, so as not to let people see some clues without Master Ji Zhu showing up.
This made Chen Yuqian's head hurt. With the enemies and various situations mentioned in Li Kuang's letter, it was obviously inappropriate to send out monks in the Qi training stage. After all, every monk in the later stage of Qi training is the treasure of the Chen family. Losing one would be a big problem.
The Chen family owns Wukesongfang City in Tianhuang County and has two shops in Qingyunfang City. They also have their share of Tianhuangfang City. What they lack is manpower. How can they send people out at will? .
As for Master Ji Zhu, don't even think about it. The only ones the Chen family can take action now are him and his younger brother Chen Yukun, who is still in solitary confinement.
Their own markets and shops now no longer have Master Ji Zhu in charge. They only show up occasionally. How could they ruin the overall situation for the sake of the Li family.
Maybe this was a trap set up by the Wang family, to lure out the Chen family's foundation-building masters so that they could take the opportunity to eliminate one or two of the Chen family's children. He couldn't take the risk.
But if he doesn’t agree, where will the Chen family’s reputation in Tianhuang County go?
Wouldn’t the Chen family’s sworn enemies have more excuses to attack the Chen family?
It's just that, it's not okay to agree, it's not okay to refuse, it's really difficult to handle!
Although Li Yue, the subordinate, is young, he is not stupid. Looking at the embarrassed expression on the face of the superior Chen Zhenren, he thought that he was not going to send anyone to the Li family to investigate the situation.
Li Kuang is a person who knows how to curry favor, and as his grandson, his ability to observe people's emotions is naturally not that bad.
He immediately stood up and cupped his hands and said:
"Grandpa Chen, my grandfather doesn't mean that the Chen family must send people to support the Li family. After all, that city has been looted, and the thieves have already left.
It's just that when my grandson was a child, he always had a very good relationship with my sister Yun Cui, so he wanted to disturb the Chen family for some time and catch up with my sister."
"I wonder if Grandpa Chen can promise Li Yue to stay with my girl for some time."
Li Yue has always been good at talking. When he spoke to Grandpa Chen, it brought the relationship between the two families closer, and also reminded Chen Yuqian in disguise: My sister is married to your grandson.
After saying this, he sent it to Chen Yuqian at the foot of the stairs. He said it was reasonable and reasonable. Chen Yuqian couldn't refuse, so he could only say to Li Yue with a kind look on his face:
"Since you called me grandpa, how can I not agree to your request?"
"You can rest assured and stay in Jiuhua Mountain. As for the few followers you bring, they can also stay in Jiuhua Mountain."
"As for support, you can rest assured that when the Chen family frees up its manpower, it will definitely be taken care of by your Li family."
"Thank you so much, Grandpa Chen."
"Come here, take Mr. Li and a few of his followers down to rest."
"yes"
Two members of the Chen family came in and led Li Yue and others to their residence.
Of course, it is impossible for Li Yue and his few followers to live on Biyun Peak, the main peak of Jiuhua Mountain. After all, this is the core of the Chen family.
The residence of Li Yue and others was naturally located in one of the four side peaks.
Chen Yuqian looked at Li Yue's leaving figure and couldn't help but sigh:
"What an eventful year it has been!"
After saying that, he immediately left the hall in a flash.
…………
Luotian County, in a splendid courtyard.
An elderly man coughed.
One after another, each one was weaker than the other, and the room was accompanied by the sound of crying one after another. However, no one knew whether this was voluntary or from the heart.
"Cough...cough"
After choking for a moment or two, the man on the bed seemed to have exhausted all his strength to suck the milk, and finally vomited out the blockage in his throat.
A look of relief appeared on the man's face, and he let out a long breath, but the paler color on his face proved that his situation at this time was not good, and could even be said to be very bad.
A woman in gorgeous clothes who was waiting nearby was about to arrange the handkerchief that she had just wiped off the man's dirt, when a trace of bright red blood appeared on the handkerchief.
"Master vomited blood!"
Then a woman's scream broke the painful atmosphere.
A group of men and women, old and young, all looked towards the hospital bed in the room.
"father"
"master"
"Big Daddy"
…………
Waves of sobbing cries echoed throughout the house.
"Okay... okay"
"I'm not dead yet, old man."
The man on the bed forced himself to sit up, but he tried several times without success.
Finally, the man gave up and just said to the woman next to him:
"Vanilla, help me up"
"Hey, sir"
The woman took out another handkerchief and wiped her eyes. Then she held the handkerchief in her left hand, put her right hand around the man's shoulder, and helped the man sit up.
"Go and call Qingyun over here!"
"Yes, sir"
A young man in gray clothes among the crowd quickly crossed two or two thresholds and ran outside.
After a while, a young man with a sad look on his face and a slightly gloomy appearance appeared in front of everyone.
As soon as the young man appeared, the crowd looked at each other, then there was another commotion, and then they automatically made way for him.
When the young man came to the bedridden man, with a "plop", the young man knelt down and shouted:
