14 The Mother of the House


At ten o'clock in the morning, we returned to Yuquan Mountain.When I got home, I had just drunk a glass of water when the doorbell rang.Xiaojun and I came to the door, and when we opened the door, there was a young woman outside, and behind her were He Liansheng and an old man.The woman was not tall, slender, and beautiful, and she looked no more than twenty-six or seventeen years old, but in fact, she was already more than three hundred years old.Seeing us coming out, He Liansheng immediately introduced us, "Young Master Wu Zheng, this is our master mother.Sister-in-law, this is Young Master Wu Zheng. ”"Mistress?"

I looked at the woman."

Hello Young Master Wu Zheng, my name is Chen Xi", the woman took the initiative to stretch out her hand to me."

Hello", I said lightly.Chen Xi then shook hands with Xiao Jun again, "Miss Jun, hello. ”"You know me?"

Xiao Jun was stunned."

Miss Jun is a celebrity in Beijing, I naturally know your name", Chen Xi finished speaking, and looked at me, "My husband He Lianyu is the head of the Bashu He family, and he should have come in person this time."

But it is not convenient for him and our son now, and neither father nor son can come to visit the young master.According to the rules of the He family, the head of the family and the young master can't take care of things, so the head mother temporarily takes over the power and takes charge of the family affairs.So, I took the liberty to come, hoping that the young master, Miss Jun wouldn't mind. ”"Understood", I nodded, "Miss Chen, please!"

”"Please!"

Chen Xi said.She looked at He Liansheng and the old man behind her, "You guys are waiting outside." ”"Yes, Mistress!"

The two said respectfully.We invited Chen Xi into the living room and sat down, and Xiao Jun went to make three cups of tea and brought them over."

Thank you, Miss Jun," Chen Xi said."

You're welcome," Xiao Jun smiled, put the tea away, and sat down next to me.Chen Xi took a sip of tea, put down the tea bowl, let out a sigh lightly, and looked at me, "Young Master Wu Zheng, you must have already understood my intention.What He Liansheng did before, my husband knows, he didn't stop it, it's his fault, and I apologize to you on his behalf.The He family is in critical condition now, and we ask the young master to help us regardless of the past suspicions. ”In fact, this is a scene, the housewife of the He family has spoken, and it is enough for me to save face.I nodded and asked her, "What happened to the He family?"

”"In the past half a month, the head of the six branches of the He family, including my husband and son, have all lost their cultivation overnight," she said, "We are a demon clan, and without cultivation, it is equivalent to having no qualifications to survive."

Not to mention that there may be changes within the family because of this, if it spreads, other demon clans will also be ready to move on us.In order not to alarm the whole clan, my husband issued an order to gather all the members of the six branches of the family to the mountain, saying that a meeting of elders was held, but in fact, he was trying to find a way to solve the problem. ”"Hmm", I nodded, "and then what?"

”"This matter is very strange, we basically ruled out that it was done by other demon clans", she said, "Not long after the accident, we got a report that there was a vision in the He family's spirit mound, and that night, the red light filled the sky, and there was a large stream of black gas gushing out of the spirit mound.Where the black gas passed, the fish and birds died, the grass and trees died, not to mention the people, even if the demon approached, they would die instantly.Overnight, it was a dead field in the car. ”"Mounds?"

Xiao Jun was puzzled."

Oh, the mound is a mountain, located in the southwest of Bashu, about 700 miles away from Rongcheng", Chen Xi explained, "There is an underground palace in that mountain, in which the coffins of the ancestors of the He family are buried, and the He family calls it the mound, that is, the ancestral tomb of our family." ”"The He family is a demon clan, and the descendants are basically reincarnated", I looked at her, "Even if you can't be sanctified in the flesh, after impermanence, you can be reborn into the womb, how can the He family have a spirit mound?"

”"Our He family is different from other demon clans", Chen Xi said, "The descendants of my family, unless they can cultivate into immortals, once they are impermanent, they will not be able to reincarnate into the womb, and if they are not buried in the spirit mound, sooner or later they will be scattered."

There are many descendants of the He family, but there are not many people who can enter the spirit tomb.Only the heads of the house, the mothers, the elders, and their wives in the past were eligible.Of course, those who have made great contributions to the He family will also be buried in the grave after death. ”I nodded silently."

After the abnormality in the mound, my husband and the elders realized that it was a feng shui problem," Chen Xi said, "We are demon clans, and we don't understand the art of feng shui."

So we wanted to ask a feng shui master to come and solve this problem for us, and after screening, we finally decided to ask you.But He Liansheng said that He Xiaoxiao had a last word on his deathbed, asking him to kill the shadow and avenge her.He said that someone in the Chu family gave him news, saying that Young Master Wu Zheng, you are the shadow.He thinks that you have a good relationship with Chu Linglong, the head of the Chu family, and you are on her side.I don't need to talk about the Chu family before, you guessed it, the He family was also involved.He was worried that you would take this opportunity to take revenge on the He family for Chu Linglong, so he said, "I will smile in my heart," understood. ”She sighed and looked at me, "Young Master, this matter, what my husband did is really wrong, and I can only ask you to understand."

There are some things you may not understand, the relationship between our He family and the Chu family is very complicated, and many things in the middle involve too much.Chu Linglong has just taken the throne, and now it is her aunt Chu Tao who is in charge of the real power of the Chu family.If she knew the current situation of the He family, she would definitely not let go of this opportunity.So my husband also has to take care of this" "I understand this", I said, "Chu Linglong and I are friends, and it is normal for you to be at ease with me." ”"Actually, I'm quite ashamed", she smiled helplessly, "We have heard of your reputation, but we still think about it a little more, so this is why we have caused these misunderstandings." ”"Needless to say," I looked at her, "and then you invited someone else, and what did they see?"

”"I didn't see anything," she hesitated, "these two people were killed, and I still don't know who the murderer is." ”"Killed?"

I frowned."

Hmm", she nodded, "The first one is Huang Ziqiao, a Nanyue feng shui master, who was killed on the way to the mound; The second is that the local feng shui master of Bashu is called Li Chaochen, he arrived at the mound, and we specially sent many people to protect him, but he was still killed.They died very miserably, and they died in exactly the same way, they were all "She looked at the two of us and didn't say anything."

Xiao Jun took it, "Disemboweling and digging out the heart." ”Chen Xi was stunned, "Miss Jun knows?

”Xiao Jun let out a sigh and looked at me, "Someone doesn't want them to get close to the mound. ”"Who?"

Chen Xi frowned.Xiao Jun glanced at her, "Your own people." ”"Your own family?"

Chen Xi was puzzled, "Who is it?"

”Xiao Jun didn't speak, and turned her head to look at me.Chen Xi looked at it and hurriedly asked me, "Young Master, do you know who it is?"

”"Your He family, is there a person named He Lianwu?"

I asked.Chen Xi was stunned.
