"Every time I talk to my dad, it's like meeting the boss. It's very stressful."

Lu Sui took a deep breath, sat down as instructed, straightened his back and put his hands on his knees.

Lu Yulin attaches great importance to rules. He pays attention to the posture of sitting and standing. He doesn't like to pick on those who are careless.

He was originally ignorant, feared his father from the bottom of his heart, and was somewhat rebellious and indulgent.

This made the relationship between father and son so tense.

Lu Sui naturally learned the lesson and showed an eager attitude toward the old leader.

After all, he is still waiting to inherit the "Lu Family Three Treasures"!

"Dad, you should go to bed earlier. It's so late and you're sitting in the study looking at the accounts, so you don't want to cause trouble."

Lu Sui "complained":

"After sitting for a long time, Qi and Blood is not smooth. My hands and feet are cold, and cold air can easily enter the body. You must pay attention."

Lu Yulin raised his eyebrows.

Have you ever heard such heart-warming words from your own son in more than ten years?

He suppressed the slightly raised corners of his mouth and said calmly:

"My daily life is taken care of by your aunt, so why should you worry about it? Are you the only one who has practiced martial arts? At this age, your father can already kill horse bandits with a fast horse and a steel sword."

Yes, yes, you are the fiercest!

Lu Sui secretly cursed, his eyes showing one part admiration, two parts being taught, and one part admiration.

Lu Yulin Keen Observation The most beautiful thing is that you can see it clearly and feel a sense of relief inexplicably.

He was both pleased and emotional:

"Zhan'ao, this child has indeed grown up and become sensible. It's a pity... If Yu Family didn't have this kind of thing, Dacheng Trading Firm should be his successor."

Lu Yulin tapped his fingers on the table, restrained his distracting thoughts, and said softly:

"Zhan'ao, I called you here tonight because I want to talk to you about a few things."

The big one is coming!

Lu Sui held his breath and concentrated, although through the six-eared monkey, he knew a lot of the Lu Family's secrets, but in the end there was no conclusion.

At present, the feud between Lu and Yu is still confusing.

"Uncle Bing told me a few days ago that you Root and Nature have everything you need to go to the Nine Ridges and Ten Mountains."

Lu Yulin looked pleased and didn't seem surprised.

This makes Lu Sui feel strange. According to Yang Kunbing, Root and Nature is a "rare thing" that is only one in a million and is by no means a "common commodity" that everyone can have.

Lu Yulin acted very calmly, as if Lu Sui should have Root and Nature.

"Could it be said that Lu Family people... actually inherited the talents of the people in the family?"

Lu Sui's eyelids drooped to cover his eyes, and he continued to listen to Lu Yulin's words.

"We, Lu Family, have been rich and powerful since the time of our great ancestor. Although when it was passed to Elder Youde, we almost went bankrupt, but we are still prospering."

Lu Yulin has deep eyes. If Lu Sui fails to live up to expectations, it may be difficult to understand the "ins and outs" of the Lu Family in this life.

Even if he is the only child of five generations.

"There is an old saying in Qi Men, which is "If you are weak, you cannot bear wealth". In fact, it is also followed by "If you have a weak life, you are not noble."

Lu Yulin said softly:

"I never talk to you about our old Lu Family. Firstly, I am afraid that if you find out, your life will be unstable; secondly, I am worried that you will be suppressed by your destiny and suffer some harm."

Lu Sui understands Lu Yulin's hard work.

To put it bluntly, my son is useless and there is really no hope.

Just let him be a silly son of a landlord and have fun eating and drinking.

It is useless to say anything else.

After all, it is said that wealth cannot last more than three generations.

Lu Family has been passed down to the fifth generation, which is no easy task.

"But after you became seriously ill, your temper gradually became calmer and you practiced tirelessly day and night. I saw it in my eyes and felt really happy in my heart."

Lu Yulin rarely showed a trace of true feelings and said happily:

"If Yu Family's life had not been cut off and a remnant appeared, after you became famous in martial arts, I would gradually hand over the business of the company to you, show you the big customers of Guanzhong and Guandong, and make several big deals...

Unfortunately, people's wishes are not fulfilled, Yu Family people are going to become members of the family, and they have a famous mountain guard as their teacher."

Lu Sui had a hint of surprise on his face.

Although he had already learned the news through the power of Sound Listening.

Lu Yulin frowned slightly and said in a deep voice:

"The disciple of the mountain guard is not immovable, but he has made a mistake for nothing, and how to deal with the aftermath has become a big problem.

Land Beyond the Pass, what the Taibao say is the rules and regulations, the golden rule.

I'm not afraid of the trouble the mountain guards will bring to the Lu Family, I can always find a way to resist."

Lu Yulin looked at Lu Sui sitting opposite and said softly:

"Zhan'ao, in the past you were soft-tempered, frivolous and ignorant, and you didn't understand the danger and cruelty of this Land Beyond the Pass.

Keeping in mind your mother's plea before she died, I didn't push it too much. I just wanted to let you go and get married as soon as possible and have a grandson."

It turns out that I already thought that the account "Lu Zhan'ao" was useless. Are you planning to wait for the sixth generation?

Lu Sui complained, looking at Lu Yulin standing up and strong, why don't you work hard and practice a few more trumpets?

Could it be that he was infatuated with his deceased mother?

"You have a high talent for practicing martial arts, and are suitable for the path of martial arts. You also have Root and Nature. You are the most outstanding young talent among the five generations of the Lu Family. You will definitely have great achievements in the future. You cannot let an old and immortal mountain guard block your way."

Lu Yulin said in a cold voice, with a look of solemnity on his brows.

Dad is so brave, he even wants to deal with the mountain guard.

If you can gain a firm foothold in the Nine Ridges and Ten Mountains and sit in one of the thirteen top positions, your bottom line is also at the "Fetus Embracing" level.

Lu Sui couldn't help but admire Lu Yulin's fierceness.

I always just want to solve the problem. As for the consequences, I will wait until the problem is solved before thinking about it.

He is worthy of being called the "Evil Biao" of the Lu Family who defends the country and then expands the territory!

"No matter what, Yu Family's remnant will definitely die, and we can no longer let the Lu and Yu families continue to fight.

Things must go to extremes, and time comes and turns. If one day it is Yu Family's turn to stand up, our old Lu Family will be in misery."

Lu Yulin obviously thought about it for a long time and said slowly:

"Zhan'ao, now that you have grown up, dad can no longer make the decision for you.

Dad has thought of two ways out for you, it's up to you to choose.

First, depending on your talents and talents, try walking around Shaqing Pass and hanging curtains at the Nine Ridges and Ten Mountains.

Behind the Yu Family is Red-Bearded Heavenly King Han Wenlong, sitting and guarding "General Mountain".

In addition to this one, there are also "Crimson Cloud Mountain", "Dragon Spine Mountain", and "Moon-Embracing Mountain". Dad can use it hard."

"However, once you have joined Nine Ridges and Ten Mountains, received your waistband, and become a "Mountain-Following Disciple", you are not allowed to leave without permission.

Unless you have the ability and are promoted to "Mountain-Patrolling Envoy", you will have the opportunity to go down the mountain and walk outside the customs."

Lu Sui Listen carefully and your thoughts flow.

Is this Nine Ridges and Ten Mountains like some kind of large force?

Once you enter, you will cut off all ties with the outside world?

Lu Sui didn't answer in a hurry, waiting for dad to come up with the second way.

He was very curious why Lu Yulin and Dou Xiaowen started to hesitate in their words when they mentioned their hometown Mute Hamlet and their godmother, which was quite strange.

It's not like being afraid of violating taboos, or being respectful and fearful.

More like... unspeakable?

Outside the study room.

The two of them squatted at the door without any style.

Dou Xiaowen couldn't bear the boredom and smoked dry cigarettes.

While puffing away the smoke, he asked:

"Lao Yang, tell me, which path will the young master choose?"

Yang Kunbing's eyes were full of disgust and he moved a few steps away:

"I haven't been here for a long time, so how can I know the young master's temperament?

But if it were me, I would try Nine Ridges and Ten Mountains.

Land Beyond the Pass, apart from joining that lunatic sect, only Nine Ridges and Ten Mountains has the method to reach heaven."

Dou Xiaowen nodded and agreed:

"Land Beyond the Pass, the five elements determine the rules, and the eight elements stir up the world.

But that's because Nine Ridges and Ten Mountains didn't speak up, so it was their turn to take charge.

But the eldest young master is an only seedling. If he really wants to worship the mountain, what should Lu Family do?"

Yang Kunbing said nonchalantly:

"Being a monk is not like becoming a monk. The young master wants to marry his aunt and just have another baby."

Dou Xiaowen glanced sideways:

"You know how to fart! How can it be so easy for people to pass on the family lineage? The body is connected to Yin and Yang, turning over altars and temples to eliminate evil spirits and eliminate disasters. If you are contaminated with those messy "Qi", it will be difficult to have heirs!"

Yang Kunbing said helplessly:

"It really doesn't work. Among the "Iron Cloth Shirt" you were thinking about on your own, there happens to be a "Iron Crotch Art" that can strengthen the yang and produce sperm. You can teach the young master how to do it.

Furthermore, is it possible that just by returning to Mute Hamlet to meet the master's godmother, I'll be able to settle down? I'm destined to lose my life."

Dou Xiaowen felt a headache from listening to it and scratched his head:

"Isn't there a way to get the best of both worlds?"

Yang Kunbing closed his eyes, as if he was wandering in the world, and said perfunctorily:

"Why not. Lu Family generation "Owl God". Owl God's destiny is very biased. He is weak and easily killed, and his strong body adds fuel to the fire.

To put it simply, you cannot go hungry, otherwise it will eat up your own destiny and luck, causing you to be impoverished and die prematurely;

But don't feed too much. Once it can't be digested, it will lead to disaster and death!

This is "Inverted Eating"..."

Dou Xiaowen interrupted with a frown:

"Old Yang, you farted so long that it almost killed me! You are getting to the point!"

This sentence made Yang Kunbing's face turn black and he almost lost his temper.

He glared at Dou Xiaowen, the big boss, and said in a low voice:

"Now that the young master suddenly has Root and Nature, it must be that the Owl God in the Lu Family's destiny has "awakened"... Speaking of this, I am surprised that Owl God needs food to move. The young master used to be weak, so it is a good thing that Owl God is silent.

As a result, he suffered a disaster, but he became prosperous and drove Owl God."

Dou Xiaowen came closer and said:

"Old Yang, you really want to smoke me to death. If you do this again, I will treat others the same way they do, and I will spray you with old smoke!"

Yang Kunbing I just feel a headache. It's like a scholar meets a soldier. I can't explain why.

If he had to stay here and wait for the master to speak, he would have run away long ago.

"What I mean is, if the young master can not only nourish "Owl God" enough, but also restrain its evil, make himself strong, and then swallow up the lives of the Yu Family people.

Then, it is likely to become a "Purple Seedling" of the Nine Ridges and Ten Mountains, or even "Red Seedling".

There are many White Seedling and Azure Seedling in the Nine Ridges and Ten Mountains, but it is rare to see a few Purple Seedling in thirty or fifty years, let alone Red Seedling. It might not alarm the mountain owner..."

"Yes! Lao Yang, I really belong to you!"

Dou Xiaowen was excited when he heard it and slapped his thigh suddenly.

Yang Kunbing stumbled and almost fell to pieces, and said angrily:

"Why are you slapping me on the thigh!?"

Dou Xiaowen smiled and quickly supported Yang Kunbing:

"It's easy... Well, Lao Yang, according to what you said, we only need to kill Yu Family, and then the eldest young master will become Purple Seedling, Red Seedling, and go to the Nine Ridges and Ten Mountains in glory, but Han Wenlong will have to pinch his nose and dare not pursue it."

Yang Kunbing sneered:

"Don't wake up and dream about your Spring and Autumn Dream! Among Ten Gods, robbing and injuring the official seal is better than killing an owl by eating wealth! Owl God is the most vicious!

Look at the fate of the five generations of the Yu Family people. Not one of them died a good death!"

"Although there is a reason for being "eaten" by the Lu Family, the fundamental reason is that when Owl God is hungry, he becomes "Evil Owl", which not only eats your own life, but also affects future generations!"

Dou Xiaowen has a droopy face:

"What if! What if the young master is extremely talented? You must know that he has only been practicing martial arts for three months, and he is already Blood Exchange! This progress is frighteningly fast!"

Yang Kunbing turned to look at the study room, where a dim yellow light came from.

He sighed:

"If you only have half a foot in the door, don't you understand that there is no room for two tigers in one mountain?"

Have you ever thought about it, for the young master to subdue Owl God and digest his destiny, the biggest obstacle is not the Yu Family people, but... the master!"

Dou Xiaowen was stunned for a moment.

"Lu Family Among the three generations in front, only the great ancestor lived his old age peacefully. The two following generations either lost their family wealth or turned father and son into enemies.

Who do you think is causing trouble? Owl God is full of food, but it is also evil! Otherwise, why is it the most vicious among Ten Gods? If it is contaminated, there will be no good results!"

Yang Kunbing said in a faint tone, with a bit of admiration:

"When I was young, I was not stingy and did not please the old master. Later I was kicked out of my house and wandered outside the customs. I happened to be hungry Owl God, but I never gained wealth from food.

For most of his life, he encountered countless dangers, and Owl God's stomach was half full. He went in and out, and Owl God was restrained without any backlash.

This is a very clever method and a very powerful character.

How do you learn, young master?"

Dou Xiaowen remained silent.

The third generation of the Lu Family was cooking under fire and showed signs of decline early on. It was all saved by Lu Yulin alone.

It would be no exaggeration to say that what I experienced during this period was full of dangers.

"The master is the biggest "owl". With him here, how can the master swallow it all?"

The mysterious theory of fate and fortune is incomplete even if it is just one point away. Only eating Yu Family people is far from enough for the young master to achieve Purple Seedling or even Red Seedling.

Besides..."

Yang Kunbing suddenly stopped talking and hid his face in the darkness.

There is a saying that cannot be said, that is, Master Lu Sui was cursed and was lying on the bed dying.

Lu Yulin could obviously be saved, but he turned a blind eye and let him suffer for half a year.

In hindsight, I can certainly praise the master for his deep and profound character and not revealing any flaws to the Yu Family people.

But...

"Owl God Fate loves "Qi" the most, and I "eat" the old man's Qi. That's why Dacheng Trading Firm later flourished and took the position of President Yongning Prefecture Merchant Guild.

With the master's fierce nature, haven't you ever thought of swallowing up the young master's anger?"

Yang Kunbing There is a chill behind my back. Counting twenty years ago, Changle County who doesn't know.

--Lu Family Lu Yulin is a ghost who manipulates people and eats people.

Turn your head and disown your relatives!

"Zhan'ao."

In the study, only one or two candlesticks were lit, and the dim yellow halo shone on Lu Yulin's face, making it look half cloudy and half clear.

"This second path has something to do with me. Your grandfather and I are not very close. He is very arbitrary and flirtatious. He often yells at your grandma.

I couldn't stand it, so I confronted him, and I was inevitably whipped afterwards.

Once there was such a big fuss that he forced his external sweetheart to hang himself. Although she didn't die, it made your grandfather furious and drove me out of the house."

Is Dad's "original family" so bad?

Lu Sui couldn't help being surprised, Lu Yulin never mentioned these things.

He had only briefly heard that his father broke into Guandong when he was young and unexpectedly became famous. He practiced both black and white and gained quite a reputation.

Daqing is the rich young master who broke up with his family and was forced to have no choice!

"I hated the old man so much at that time that I secretly swore that I would look like a human being and be famous outside the country! Let everyone hear my name, instead of just knowing that Lu Family is a domineering young master who does not hesitate to do anything."

"Before I ran to Guandong, I went back to my hometown and encountered two obstacles. One was horse bandits, and the other was demon disaster... Fortunately, there was no danger."

Dad's life is pretty tough too.

Lu Sui sighed.

When he was a teenager, he was able to survive a robbery by horse bandits and a powerful demon.

"By chance, I met a... godmother in my hometown."

Lu Yulin paused, looking a little embarrassed:

"A lot of things happened, but none of them mattered.

The only thing you need to know is that our old Lu Family and our godmother have arranged a "marriage".

Originally, it was up to me to get married, but then I met your mother, so I put it aside."

Could it be that dad ran away from marriage?

Seeing Lu Yulin's rare expression of embarrassment, Lu Sui couldn't help but wonder.

"If you want to live a peaceful life, I will send you back to Mute Hamlet and take you to meet your godmother.

Then... finish this relationship, live there for a long time, and have more children."

Why does it sound more and more like a door-to-door son-in-law?

Dad is asking himself to be the "brother-in-law"!

Lu Sui is alert!
