Collect crowd into immortals

Chapter 128

On the big square on the top of Lotus Mountain.

After the busy work, many Chen clan members gathered here one after another.

Some of them looked solemn, and there was a touch of curiosity in this solemnity, curious about which family's senior monks unexpectedly visited their Chen family, and more importantly, the patriarch and the others did not refuse, allowing The opponent enters the island;

Some looked at each other, and then formed a group of five, ten people, forming a position that was easiest to form an formation, ready to form an formation to fight against the enemy at any time.

Perhaps sensing that the atmosphere at the scene was a bit tense, Chen Changhui, who was standing at the front of the crowd, quickly asked Uncle Wu beside him:

"Uncle Wu, is my brother really back?"

Hearing this, many monks of the Chen family who were preparing to fight against the enemy just now looked at each other in blank dismay.

They naturally knew about Chen Changhui's elder brother, and they were even very familiar with it, nothing else, because he was the first monk to leave the clan without authorization in the three hundred years since the establishment of the Chen clan, and he had gone for more than 30 years.

Many monks of the younger generation have never even met each other face to face, but only heard about each other's deeds from the mouths of the elders.

Knowing that the other party is a monk who died by default.

Could it be that the other party is coming back now?

Seeing that Chen Changhui and others had different expressions, everyone present instantly realized that this was probably true.

Knowing that it wasn't an enemy attack, everyone felt relieved and looked into the sky curiously.

They want to see what the patriarch and the others are planning.Will it be dealt with seriously according to the family rules, or is it going to be taken lightly and downplay the matter.

Just as they were thinking, they suddenly caught a glimpse of Chen Guyong in the crowd who needed support to stand firm, and some guesses arose in their hearts.

Perhaps, because Uncle Qi has worked hard for the family all his life, the patriarch and the others will really let this matter go.

But if this is the case, where should the family rules be placed?

Although Chen Changhui didn't know the details about the guesses of everyone in the field, she also guessed a little bit from the eyes of everyone.

She was the one who called her brother back to see her father for the last time. As for how he would be punished, she believed that the clan would deal with it properly.

Whether to abolish her cultivation as a warning, or punish her to guard the mine and work hard all her life, she accepts it all!

After all, my brother did something wrong!
But just when she thought of this, she heard her father's angry voice:
"Why do you ask, that kid walked away without saying a word for so many years, and now he ran back with a sharp sound when he wanted to come back. What's more, he even brought a foundation-establishing Dzogchen monk to support him. He is doing this What are you doing, showing off your power? Evading punishment? Cough cough cough!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Chen Guyong couldn't suppress the cough in his throat again.Chen Changhui and his mother Xu Qixin rushed to help Shunqi.

But while helping, the mother said angrily: "Okay, okay! It's good to be back, so don't be sullen!"

"Ahem! Am I sulking?"

Seeing that her husband was not convinced, Xu Qixin wanted to say in public that the old man often said that his son would not come back to see him, but after thinking about it, there were many people here, and the old man would easily lose face, so she suppressed this thought again.

"Okay, okay! You see that Ping'er is not pleasing to the eye, so you have to give face to your daughter-in-law! It's not good for you to put on face for others when they come here for the first time!"

"Then don't look at what they did? How did they get married? Did we notify us when they got married? Also, did we know when that kid was someone else's son-in-law? Now think of us? Why did you go early? gone?"

Xu Qixin did not refute the old man's complaints.

What my son did was really wrong.Even as the other person's mother, she had to admit this.But now that the other party can come back to see the old man, she feels that it is okay.

Otherwise, if the other party really wants to hide and not show up, there is nothing they can do against the other party, right?
Just when Xu Qixin was about to comfort him again, he saw a flying boat approaching from far away, speeding from the west.

Seeing this, the old lady hastily warned:
"They're back, put away your bad temper first. If you have anything to say, let's go back and talk to Ping'er alone. Don't let him down in front of your daughter-in-law. It's not good!"

Hearing this, Chen Guyong hummed vaguely, then turned his head aside.

However, with his peripheral vision, he kept paying attention to all the movements on the flying boat.

In a moment, the flying boat landed on the large square on the top of the mountain from far to near.

Three men and one woman came down from above.

The first person was the one with white hair and childlike face, just like Chen's elders who were over a hundred years old, he was already showing signs of aging, but the aura of the other person surprised everyone present.

Because they suddenly discovered that the aura on the opponent's body was much stronger than all the Foundation Establishment cultivators of their Chen family.

Seeing this person, the monks of the Chen family all affirmed one thing, this person should be the intelligence agent who established the foundation and completed the foundation mentioned by the elders of the family before!
It has to be said that the aura of this body is really not to be underestimated.

Realizing this, the Chen clan members who had just relaxed immediately became excited again.

To fight against this person, they had to form a large-scale formation immediately, and they had to be led by the foundation-building monks in the clan.

Otherwise, even these qi-training monks would not be enough to slap them.

Thinking of this, everyone dared not relax.

After the spy, it was the face they were quite familiar with, the head of the family, Chen Wanzhou.

Behind the patriarch, followed by a pair of youths who looked quite young.

The man is high-spirited and has a handsome face; the woman is as gentle as water, and I feel pity for it.

Seeing these two people, no one else moved, Chen Guyong, who had been bending over and coughing just now, immediately stood up straight.

He stared at the young man for a long time before turning his head abruptly to the side.

However, if anyone observes carefully, they will find that the old man's eyes are already red.

He was like this, and his wife Xu Qixin couldn't help himself even more. Looking at his energetic son, the old man's thoughts burst out in his heart.

This is the son she and her husband have raised for more than 30 years!We haven't seen each other for so many years, but the other party is still so kind and handsome.

The more she looked, the more she missed her.She wished she could rush to the other side and take a good look at her long-lost son.

The two old men were like this, and Chen Changping, who had just stepped off the flying boat, was no exception.

But compared to the two old men, he was much more direct.

As soon as Chen Changping got off the flying boat, he jumped in front of the two old people as if flying, and fell to his knees with a plop.

"Father, mother, the child is not filial, and it is the child's fault that he failed to serve the two of you! Father, mother..."

In fact, the first time he got off the flying boat, he saw the two familiar figures in the crowd.

Just looking at these two figures, Chen Changping felt inexplicably sad.I remember that when they ran away from home, the two old people were still in good health, and the hair on their heads was only black and white, not too old. Who would have thought that when they met again, my father would not be able to stand still And my mother already has gray hair all over her head.

Seeing this, Chen Changping couldn't restrain himself anymore, and burst into tears.

Hearing his mournful cries, coupled with his crying, as a father, Chen Guyong couldn't bear it anymore, the tip of his nose was sour, and tears welled up in his eyes.

Just thinking of the stupid things this kid did back then, the old man endured the excitement and pain in his heart, wiped away his tears with his sleeves, and hardened his heart:
"It's too late to come back and admit my mistake now! Why did you go so early?"

"Dad, the child has always wanted to come back, but he just couldn't get away, so..."

"So you don't say a word, don't send a message? You really are an unfamiliar white-eyed wolf."

Chen Guyong didn't believe a word of his son's words.

It's okay if you don't come back, just think that you are really trapped by things outside, but it's been more than 30 years and you haven't heard a word back. Is this because of the situation and you can't get away?
Are you taking me for a fool?
Originally, before hearing his son's explanation, Chen Guyong was still trying to excuse his son in his mind, saying that the other party was imprisoned or something.

The result is this?

You have succeeded in building the foundation, and you have become the son-in-law of the ruler of the whole family. How can someone force you to fail, to force you not to send a message to your family?

Who would believe this reason?

Angry in his heart, Chen Guyong became more and more annoyed the more he looked at it.

In the end, he simply turned his head away, trying to keep out of sight and out of mind.

Regarding his father's question, Chen Changping hesitated for a long time, but did not say a word.

After all, what my father said was the truth, he really didn't want to come back on his own initiative, and no one forced him at all.What does this make him say?I really can't say it!

As for the complicated psychological process, it was naturally difficult for him to explain it to his elders.

Could it be that I am hypocritical, embarrassed, and afraid that others will gossip, that's why I am like this, this is simply impossible!

If you really want to say this, how can he gain a foothold in the family and the world of cultivation?

For a while, the father and son were deadlocked in place.

One is unwilling to explain, and the other sulks alone!

Fortunately, at this time, Xu Qixin, as a mother, came out to smooth things over. She let go of her husband, helped her son up, and comforted her:
"Don't listen to your father, it's good that you can come back! It's good that you can come back!"

While comforting, Xu Qixin stroked his son's cheek and looked at him carefully.

The son has lost weight and matured!But no matter what, he was still Xu Qixin's son!No one can deny this.As for the son doing something wrong, then accept the punishment.She, Xu Qixin, would not hide it.

The mother and son exchanged pleasantries for a while, and then Xu Qixin asked about the girl who had been following behind her son.

"Ping'er, who is this?"

Upon hearing the question, Chen Changping immediately wiped away the tears on his face and pulled his wife Jian Lingyu forward, "Mom, dad, I haven't introduced you yet, this is Ping'er's wife - Jian Lingyu. Just call her Yu'er. Okay. Yu'er is a very good girl and has helped the child through many difficulties."

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw his wife Jian Lingyu also stepped forward and gave a blessing ceremony to the two old people.

"My daughter-in-law, Jian Lingyu, has met her father and mother!"

Seeing that she is so polite and doesn't put on airs of the Fu Zun's daughter at all, Chen Guyong no longer pretended to be deaf and dumb, but he just hummed and stopped talking.

On the contrary, Xu Qixin, a mother-in-law, boasted fiercely to her daughter-in-law, "Yu'er doesn't need to be too polite. My Yu'er is so handsome, no wonder she can charm that brat...

Speaking of Yu'er, has this boy Ping'er bullied you? If so, you can tell mother, and mother will help you teach him a good lesson.That kid, who never learned well since he was a child, and caused troubles all day long, really needs someone to take care of him and let him learn well. "

"No mother, Changping treats Yu'er very well!"

The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law chatted for a while, and then Chen Changping focused his attention on the woman in brocade who had been supporting his father.

"You are, Chang Hui, you have grown so big!"

I recall that back then, my sister was still a little follower who liked to follow him. Unexpectedly, when we meet again now, she has grown into a big girl.For a moment, Chen Changping sighed.

The past is like smoke!

Seeing his brother asking him, Chen Changhui reluctantly called out, "Brother!"

Before her brother could speak, she turned around and bent slightly towards Jian Lingyu, who was talking to her mother, "Changhui has seen sister-in-law!"

Seeing this, Jian Lingyu smiled knowingly, "You must be Changhui! Your brother often mentioned you before, saying that you pestered him when you were young, and often let him play behind your back. I didn't expect you to grow so big in the blink of an eye. , so beautiful."

"Sister-in-law is joking, sister-in-law is really beautiful!"

……

Looking at his younger sister who ignored him but had a happy chat with his wife, Chen Changping really couldn't connect the polite and sensible girl in front of him with the domineering voice sending him a message.

This is a completely different character!
But he also knew that the other party didn't want to see him, so he didn't make fun of himself, but looked at the other clansmen beside him.

Just by looking at it, he found more familiar faces.

"Third Brother, Sixth Brother, Seventh Brother, Ninth Sister...you are all here!"

In the crowd, Chen Changhao and others greeted him and looked at each other with complicated expressions. In the end, Chen Changhao stepped forward and hugged his fourth brother Chen Changping.

"Just come back! Just come back!"

The brothers hugged each other, telling their heartily about the long-lost brotherhood.

After a long time, Chen Changping and all the brothers and sisters met each other, but suddenly found something strange.

"Where's Big Brother? Why didn't you see Big Brother?"

"Brother... let's talk about this later!"

Hearing this, Chen Changhao glanced at his sister-in-law who was suddenly depressed, and didn't say much.

Seeing this, Chen Changping also knew that there should be something going on here, but the timing was not right, so he didn't ask any more questions, but planned to inquire later when he had time.

At this moment, Chen Guting nodded towards his nephews standing on the edge of the crowd.

The next moment, the sky above the square was filled with talismans exploding, spells flying, and it was so beautiful.

Seeing this, Jian Daoxing, who had already gotten to know all the monks of the Chen family, burst out laughing happily, and he praised: "Fellow Daoist, the Chen family is really extraordinary, they are all rare humerus generation!"

Hearing this, the patriarch waved his hand and said with a smile: "Senior, you praised me highly!"

When Jian Daoxing heard the words, he remained silent.

After all, as far as he can see now, there are four members of the Chen family in the foundation building stage alone.

And two of them were the same generation as his grandniece and grandson-in-law.It can be seen from this that the Chen family is indeed not comparable to ordinary small households.

Among other things, these two juniors can at least protect the Chen family for nearly 200 years.

Not to mention, before he came here, he had heard that the youngest generation of the Chen family seemed to be the Qing generation, and there was a genius with two spiritual roots who had gone to Fenglei Sect and had already established a successful foundation.

With these two backings, it is difficult for the Chen family to decline!
After the greetings, the Chen family organized a grand welcome banquet, and that was all.

After the meeting, Chen Changping returned to his residence, exhorted his wife, and came to the home of his third brother Chen Changhao.

"Third Brother, what's going on with Big Brother? Why hasn't he been seen all day?"

"Brother, he..."

After the third brother told, Chen Changping finally understood everything.

It turned out that after his elder brother Chen Changhong sent his son to Fengleizong, he stayed with him for five years in Fengleizong. When his son Chen Qingyuan was 11 years old, he knew the right and wrong, and he returned to Lianhu Island.

Not long after, the eldest brother Chen Changhong attacked the foundation again, but ended in failure.

Chen Changhong was not young at that time, and he only had one chance to attack the foundation building. However, he and his wife did not save many contribution points, not even enough to buy a foundation building pill. At this time, there happened to be a person outside the island. A friend came to look for it and said that there was a foundation-building pill over there at the Demonic Battlefield.

Even in addition to this, there are also various spiritual fruits and spiritual materials and panacea that assist foundation building.

It can be said that as long as one has the ability to gather all these together, even a fool can build a foundation smoothly.

Of course, Chen Changhong knew about this, but he was also very aware of the dangers of the Heavenly Demon Battlefield.

Monsters are rampant in there, demons are raging, and all those who break in can come out, let alone most of them will not be complete.

So even though it was only the battlefield of the qi refining period, Chen Changhong didn't have much confidence in entering the qi training stage with the same level as him.

Although his combat prowess is extraordinary, he is not one in a hundred.

Once you enter the battlefield, you probably won't be able to come back.

He still has a wife, daughter and son, so there is really no need to take that risk.

But the friend who came to visit had already made preparations. The friend said that they accidentally discovered the legacy of a formation master and obtained a set of top-level five-element formation formation flags.After the formation is opened, as long as there are enough spirit stones, the formation can ensure that all the mana in the formation is inexhaustible and inexhaustible, and it also has multiple functions such as concealment, body protection, and defense.

It can be said that this five-element formation is completely a reduced version of the clan protection formation.

The other party made it clear that as long as they had the protection of this formation, they would be able to be considered as high-level combatants in the demonic battlefield where only Qi Practitioners are allowed to enter and exit, and they can only use magic weapons, first-order elixirs, and first-order formations. .

After the trial formation, Chen Changhong found out that what his friends said was true. With the help of this formation, they could really be regarded as the top combat power in the Qi refining period.

With such combat power, there shouldn't be much danger in the demon battlefield.

After confirming, Chen Changhong no longer hesitated, equipped himself with a good set of magic weapons and elixir talismans, left all the rest of his belongings to his wife and daughter, practiced the formation for another half a year, and then turned around and left.

Who ever thought that this departure would be a farewell forever.

Three months later, the soul lamp left by Chen Changhong in the family ancestral hall went out directly, and it took another month before the family received the relics from the battlefield guards.

A Foundation Establishment Pill.

"The Foundation Establishment Pill was sent to Qingyuan by my sister-in-law. About three years ago, news came from Fenglei Sect that Qingyuan had successfully established the Foundation!"

After finishing speaking, Chen Changhao let out a long sigh.

The elder brother's Foundation Establishment Pill was not considered a waste, it was used for his own son.This can be considered wishful thinking!
After all, although nephew Chen Qingyuan's spiritual roots are good, and he later cultivated them into alien spiritual roots through secret methods, in fact, his success rate in foundation building is only [-]%, not [-]% certain.

If it fails, it will have to wait another ten years.

It is worthwhile to save ten years of effort now.

It's just that it's a life!
Hey!
Hearing what happened to his eldest brother, Chen Changping also felt sad.

Back in the day, the eldest brother Chen Changhong had been taking care of their younger brothers and sisters, sheltering them from the wind and rain, comforting them, playing with them, studying together, and practicing together...

Unexpectedly, there is no time to see each other after a farewell in those years.

Now, he, his third brother and his ninth younger sister are all in the Foundation Establishment Realm, and the rest of the brothers and sisters are also healthy, and they are all married and have children.Leaving the eldest brother alone.

This is really a trick of good fortune!
But just after he finished sighing, he suddenly realized that something was wrong, "Wait a minute, big brother sent back Zhuji Dan, which means that his previous meritorious service is enough, so why did he still die? Could it be that someone plotted against him?"

You must know that although the Heavenly Demon Battlefield is a battlefield, you can actually withdraw at any time.

Of course, you have to come out by yourself.

But the eldest brother has already exchanged the foundation building pill, which means that he has indeed come out, so why does he still go in?

Chen Changping was extremely suspicious.

Could it be that the eldest brother was assassinated by his teammates?

In this regard, Chen Changhao shook his head and denied his guess, "Didn't you notice the time? In less than three months, the elder brother earned a Foundation Establishment Pill. Obviously, their formation is very useful. It is enough for them to protect themselves on the battlefield, and even kill them. If it were you, with such a big advantage, would you continue to work hard?
After all, the eldest brother is not alone, he also has a wife and a daughter.Moreover, the spiritual roots of the three are not good, so it is basically impossible for them to succeed in one attempt! "

"This……"

Chen Changping was speechless.

You must know that all the things on the Tianmo battlefield are not free, they all need merit in exchange, and the source of merit is the corpses and treasures of those monsters in the battlefield.

Therefore, the more powerful the combat power, the more able to eat on the battlefield, and the richer he is.

Now that Big Brother and the others have a tyrannical formation, there is no reason to give up halfway.

After all, it is really difficult to choose between a large number of meritorious deeds that are easy to obtain, and a direct withdrawal. I don't know if there is a second best formation.

Chen Changping thought that even if it was him, he would not know what to do.

At this time, the third brother Chen Changhao added:

"As for the assassination you said, that's impossible! After the elder brother's soul lamp went out, Fifth Grandpa went to the homes of the elder brother's teammates and found that their soul lamps had also gone out.

And according to the battlefield guard, after the last supply of the five elder brothers, they never came out again.

So there is no such thing as assassination! "

"All right!"

In this regard, Chen Changping had no choice but to accept it!
As for whether it was murdered by other people, it is indeed possible, but in this way, there is no way to find out.

After all, there are tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of people fighting in the demon battlefield every day. It is impossible for them to check all the monks who entered at that time.

That's not realistic!The Chen family couldn't do it either.

There are tens of thousands of people, and even tens of thousands of top-level qi training monks. This force, let alone their Chen family, is definitely not an opponent even if the five of them are tied together.

In this way, this matter can only be counted in this way.

But just after letting go of this matter, Chen Changping suddenly remembered another matter.

"By the way, third brother, what's the matter with my father? How do I think his cultivation is only at the fourth level of Qi training? Didn't he complete Qi training 800 years ago? Why did his cultivation suddenly drop?"

When we first met before, Chen Changping actually found out that something was wrong. It was only because the timing was wrong that he kept silent. Seeing Third Brother now, he vowed to find out.

After all, my mother, who was about the same age as my father, was in good health and full of energy, but why my father suddenly aged so much and became a dying old man, there must be something wrong with it.

"Speaking of this, blame us..."
