Chapter two
The rain outside the pavilion gradually became a little lighter.
Just as Chen Guanshui was about to say goodbye to Lin Anran, he saw four or five people coming from afar. When they got closer, they could see who the person was. Chen Guanshui and Lin Anran couldn't help but frowned.
No, these four or five people are all students from Haizhou Road, just like Chen Guanshui. However, unlike him who is only the second generation of Chen's family in Anjing County, these four or five people are all big families in Haizhou Road that have been passed down for thousands of years, and can be regarded as the "Haizhou Family". Usually, Chen Guanshui has never seen his father shirking responsibility by these so-called local wealthy families in politics, and he often fights with these bastards in Haizhou City. It can be said that he has already formed a bond.
The leader was Dou Jiao, the next generation of Dou family in Haizhou. Two years ago, it was said that he was a well-known little bully in Haizhou. He lifted up a girl's skirt on the street, smashed the widow's door at night, and paid protection fees from the gangsters, forced buying and selling, and did several big things. Finally, because he had a storm with the daughter of another family, he was sent to Yangzhou to enroll. Now he is the third-year old student in Baishi Academy. In the past, Chen Guanshui avoided his right and wrong center and had no contact with him.
The people following behind were also guys that Chen Guanshui was very familiar with. The second one was Chen Ang from the next generation of the Chen family in Haizhou. Judging from his appearance, he now boasted of himself as Dou Jiao’s military advisor.
Indeed, the Dou family in Haizhou is seven hundred years shorter than the Chen family in Haizhou. Only three hundred years ago did the tribe successfully build the foundation, and the family was listed as "The Nine-Level Zhongzheng Map of the Wu Clan". In fact, the Dou family in Haizhou can only be regarded as a rising generation. However, Dou Hongxuan, the head of the Dou family of this generation, lives in seclusion in Sangmu Island and practices. Now it is the peak level of foundation building. The next step is to form a golden elixir and become a real person. As long as he becomes a real person in Jindan, he can open Sangmu Island into a temple, establish a sect, recruit disciples, and even promote the Dou family in Haizhou to the Dou family in Wu.
In contrast, the Chen family in Haizhou has been dead for thirty years, and no new family members have been able to successfully build foundations until today. If there is still no foundation-building monk to support the family in twenty years, the Chen family will be lowered to the level of "The Nine-Level Zhongzheng Piano of the Wu Clan". At that time, the children of the Chen family would even lose the qualification to study in Baishi Academy. They could only be a casual cultivator in the world, and go to those middle and lower-level cultivation sects to get some leftovers, be a cattle and horse for them, and live and die, and only then can they get one or two foundation-building pills.
So in Chen Guanshui's opinion, Chen Ang is a very character.
The other children of the Chen family were holding the family signs and pretending to be fat. He appeared beside Dou Jiao, helping Dou Jiao deal with the troubles he caused without hesitation, and even taking the blame for Dou Jiao more than once. What's more amazing is that when Dou Jiao was against the children of the Chen family in Haizhou, he still stood behind Dou Jiao and made his cousins and cousins miserable. He even brought one of his cousins down and sent him to Dou Jiao's bed. While his reputation was broken, he really became Dou Jiao's confidant and the dog-headed military advisor beside him.
As long as Dou Hongxuan can become a real person in Jindan, the Chen family will not be able to study at Baishi Academy in the future, and will never enter the Haoran Zhengqi Sect. However, Chen Ang's descendants can still enter Sangmu Island to practice based on his relationship with Dou Jiao. Decades later, the Chen family will still have foundation-building monks appear to revive the family.
At that time, the only hero of the Chen family would be Chen Ang. So what if the so-called bad reputation is now?!
It was because of the ambition under Chen Ang’s smiling face that Chen Guanshui had always rejected him.
But today, seeing Chen Ang take the lead and rushing towards the pavilion with Dou Jiao, Chen Guanshui knew that what he should come was coming.
Since he guessed the true intention of the person in front of him, Chen Guanshui turned around and sat opposite Lin Anran, picked up the teapot, and Mans poured tea into three cups in an orderly manner.
The tea is pretty good, the authentic Yuelonghu Silver Needle. The tea is light in color, but it has a strong aroma.
On the other side, Lin Anran saw Dou Jiao coming towards this side, and her eyebrows couldn't hide her disgust. She raised her hand and waved her hand. Then she saw a shadow flashing in front of the pavilion, and another person appeared. The man was wrapped in black clothes, and even his hair, face, and hands were wrapped, with only two beautiful eyebrows and a pair of sharp eyes.
This man just stood in front of the pavilion. The Doujiao people who were still fierce on their faces just now were about to take off their sensation, turned into little chickens in front of the wolf dog, looking at each other and being at a loss.
Dou Jiao was still more fierce and shouted loudly through the man: "Lin Anran, you bastard, it is strictly forbidden to bring servants in the academy. You know that the law is broken, I want to go to the Ministry of Law to sue you!"
Unfortunately, Lin Anran didn't even leave the corners of his eyes for Dou Jiao, just thinking it was a breeze. What he was surprised now was that Chen Guanshui had just poured three cups of tea, and the third cup that was extra happened to be where the person had just hidden.
"Can you detect Aunt Lin now?" Lin Anran's face was full of disbelief.
Lin Anran naturally didn't believe it, and she naturally knew the guards she carried with her. Not to mention that she had reached the ninth level of the Qi Refining Stage, even the escape technique she practiced was personally selected by Mr. Lin Baishi for the family guards. Although it was not the true magic of the Haoran Zhengqi Sect, it was much more perfect than the things circulating outside. Chen Guanshui is just a qi refiner who has just started. He has not even changed the first level of innate true energy. He has a lot of knowledge, how can he detect it?
Chen Guanshui didn't argue, and stretched out a finger and gently tapped the edge of his teacup. A circle of ripples appeared, and a small water mirror was generated at the mouth of the cup. The water mirror was only as big as a palm, and the edges were flickering. From time to time, a circle of light spreads and disappears, and another circle of light lit up and merges into the water mirror. On the water mirror, there are red and green spots of all sizes, and there are inexplicably strange winding lines.
After counting five fingers, the water mirror fell and merged into the tea.
Chen Guanshui then looked up at the person standing in front of the pavilion and said, "It turned out to be Aunt Lin Siqi. My nephew didn't know just now and couldn't see you. Please forgive me. My mother was very guilty of Aunt Lin. The matter was done by my mother back then, and finally it was implicated by Aunt Lin, which has caused Aunt Lin to be unable to build the foundation. If there is any need in the future, my nephew will definitely help."
It turned out that the person standing in front of the pavilion was the personal guard of Lin Suzhen, a lady from the Lin family, 18 years ago. Later, Lin Suzhen and Chen Xiu eloped, which also affected Lin Siqi. Many of the contributions made were invalid and were demoted to the lowest-level servants to start again. The heaviest punishment was the foundation-building pill that could be obtained after serving in the Lin family for life. No matter how great the contribution is made in the future, even if they die for the Lin family, they will no longer be able to obtain the foundation-building pill.
Such punishment is the real terror for Qi Refining Cultivators!
Lin Siqi stood in the rain without looking back. She was silent for a long time before whispering: "What your mother owes me, your father has paid it back, and now there is no business for you. Your An Jing Chen family is really good, and you can even take out the foundation-building pill at will! That's good, the grudge between me and your family will be eliminated."
Chen Guanshui was also silent.
Chen’s father also said what Lin Siqi said. After Chen Xiu settled in Haizhou and gave birth to his legitimate son Chen Guanshui, the Chen clan gave him a foundation-building pill. Luofu Chen’s rules, every extra legitimate son in the family, no matter whether he has spiritual roots or not, he will be rewarded with a foundation-building pill. This foundation-building pill is the capital for the future success of this legitimate son. With spiritual roots, you can easily build the foundation; without spiritual roots, you can also hire Qi-refining cultivators to serve him; even if you sell it, you can exchange it for tens of thousands of taels of gold; if it is a daughter, it is the richest dowry.
But Chen Guanshui's foundation-building pill is gone.
