"Baihu Hall? Wasn't it disbanded by the wealthy elders?" Chen Wenruo's eyes showed surprise and confusion.

"There's no rush to talk about this. Sisters, go and rest first. I'll let you clean up later and then we can talk about business."

Chen Jiaoer smiled and asked the servants to take the sisters to rest, and asked Chen Subaru to go back to his room to recuperate first, while she went back to the main castle to handle various affairs in the castle.

In the evening, Chen Zixu and Chen Kewei both changed into their regular clothes. Chen Wenruo also attended their reception banquet. At the banquet, everyone had a good chat with some familiar deacon elders. Chen Wenruo and Chen Zixu also danced swords together for the juniors in the castle to see. intoxicated.

After the banquet dispersed, the three of them were brought to the fourth floor of the main castle by Chen Jiaoer. Chen Wenruo noticed the difference as soon as he reached the fourth floor. Entering Qinglong Fort, if the Feng Shui master uses Bagua to deduce the Feng Shui settings in the fort, it seems to be somewhat unreasonable and not in line with the stay and life of a large family. The senior officials of the Chen family seem to know that, so they do not repair these unreasonable issues and do not allow the big family to stay there permanently.

But once entering the fourth floor of the main castle, those who study this deeply will find that this room is designed according to Luo Shu and Xiantian Bagua. Looking at the entire Qinglong Fort from the fourth floor, it is based on the Hetu and Fuxi's 64 hexagrams. The four floors of the main fort symbolize "thunder and wind are thin", the corridor connecting the four sub-forts means "water and fire are shooting at each other", the four main buildings of the sub-forts symbolize "ventilation of mountains and rivers", and the four watchtowers symbolize "positioning of heaven and earth".

"Sister Jiao'er, this Qinglong Fort is not Wubao at all!" Chen Wenruo exclaimed after a moment's observation.

When Chen Jiaoer heard this, he immediately felt happy and said to Chen Subaru with a smile: "My little brother is really smart. He can see the mystery of this Qinglong Fort at a glance."

After she motioned the three of them to sit on the couch, she suppressed her smile and said to Chen Subaru with a solemn face: "As for family matters, after the invasion of strange demons, the elders of the big clan revealed some secrets to the Qi Gathering Realm of the clan. The descendants above have allowed us to gradually participate in the affairs of the clan."

She sighed and continued: "After the third uncle died, we all thought it was just an accident. It wasn't until we learned some of the clan's secrets that we realized that my aunt's insistence was right. This is why the clan has never blamed you. Because of your aunt, since you disappeared, the wealthy family members have been sending people to find you intact, Aunt Feng lost you, and the wealthy family members were so angry that they almost took advantage of the family law."

Zixu and Ke Wei both nodded, with some fear in their eyes.

"Then Liu Yi and sister Xing'er were not punished?" Chen Wenruo asked with an anxious look.

"The wealthy elders will definitely not say anything about them. But you won't know when Aunt Feng goes back. You also know my aunt's temper. It's possible that she beat up the wealthy elders before going to see them." Chen Kewei curled his lips and said.

"Let's not talk about this for now. Let me tell you about White Tiger Hall first." Chen Jiaoer was afraid that the conversation would be endless, so he stopped the topic.

"The rise of our Chen family stems from Wang Mang's usurpation of the Han Dynasty. In the fifth year of Tianfeng, our ancestors started an uprising in Langya, and later joined Fan Chong's Red Eyebrow Army and became a soldier. Our ancestors led the army to fight with Fan Chong for five years, until Wang Mang executed him. I got a piece of jade in Changling and liked it very much, so I asked Fan Chong for the jade. Fan Chong and his ancestor were both Langya people, so he followed his ancestor and was rewarded with a lot of gold and silver. The ancestor thought that if Wang Mang was destroyed, the world would be peaceful. Unexpectedly, there was internal fighting within the Liu family. In the third year of Jianwu, Fan Chong was killed by Liu Xiu, and the ancestors returned to Langya. From then on, our Chen family became a reclusive family."

"Sister Jiao'er, I know this..." Chen Wenruo said with a look of impatience.

"Oh, and then there's something you don't know. Do you think the elder of the great clan and the seniors of the White Tiger Hall were suddenly born when they were suddenly born? After restoring the aura of heaven and earth, what kind of cultivation are the elders of the great clan and the seniors of the White Tiger Hall capable of assisting the court in making meritorious deeds? We? Can the Chen family, as a reclusive family, be able to cultivate so many monks? Everyone in our main lineage is at the Qi Gathering Realm, our uncles are all at the Core Formation Realm, and our ancestors are at the Nascent Soul Realm. Do you think it’s normal?”

After listening to Chen Jiao'er's words, Chen Wenruo looked thoughtful.

Chen Jiao'er paused for a while and then continued: "Actually, the piece of jade that the ancestor obtained in Changling is the key to a treasure house. That treasure house is not far from Qinglong Fort, at Yuanqiao. After the ancestor returned to his hometown, , they summoned Fan Chong's old tribe in Langya, gathered more than 2000 people, and settled their families in our Chenjiabao. Under the guise of a hidden family, they actually bought properties under the guise of doing business, and secretly hollowed out the surrounding areas of the treasure house. In the end, our ancestors obtained the treasures in the treasure house, and our Heaven-shaking Seal was one of them. At the same time, we also found the secret of cultivation in the treasure house."

"Didn't the spiritual energy of heaven and earth only recover after the Jin Dynasty?" Chen Wenruo asked doubtfully.

"According to the classics in the treasury, the spiritual energy of heaven and earth had already begun to recover during the Han Dynasty, but this process was very long. Some Taoist masters used the innate Bagua to reverse yin and yang and developed the layout method of the spirit gathering array. The monks were the same in the array. It can absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. The underground of Qinglong Fort is the earliest spirit gathering array developed by our ancestors, and the tunnel where our ancestors dug the treasure house can go directly from Qinglong Fort to the Shili Pavilion outside Xiapi City."

Chen Jiaoer looked at the shocked Chen Wenruo, stood up, walked to him, stroked his hair with her hands, and said: "From then on, our Chen family has become a real family of immortal cultivators. The outstanding descendants of the family are selected to become the main line. There are four guards guarding the main line: Qinglong, White Tiger, Suzaku, and Xuanwu. The Qinglong Guard is responsible for guarding the ancestral home of Chenjiabao, Qinglongbao, and the family treasure house, as well as managing the relationship between the royal family and noble families in various places, and selecting good seedlings from the people; the White Tiger Guard is responsible for all the Chen family. Secular industries, Jianghu relations, coping with and dealing with various troubles that are detrimental to the Chen family; Zhuque Guards are responsible for family etiquette, and have the most elite cavalry in the family. We have never seen these cavalry, only know that they are very powerful; Xuanwu Guards are responsible for family punishment , as well as the protection of the family’s important industries and personnel, and also has the most elite navy in the family. It is said that these navy have large ships that can fly, but we have never seen them.”

After saying that, Chen Jiaoer took Chen Subaru's hand and walked to her side to sit next to her. She nodded towards Chen Zixu.

After Chen Zixu received Chen Jiaoer's instruction, he said, "Let me tell you the next thing."

After she glanced at Chen Jiaoer and Chen Wenruo's hands, she cleared her throat and said, "The four guards that Sister Jiaoer just mentioned were established at the beginning. After so many years and several generations of people, in fact, It’s no longer called that. Ever since the Chen family entered the Jin Dynasty, no one has mentioned the Qinglong Guard. Very few people know about the Suzaku Guard. The cavalry will not be dispatched easily. It is said that there are only seven people including the elders of the big clan. They can only be mobilized with the consent of the clan elders. This time Chenjiabao was lost and they were not mobilized, which means that the matter was not serious enough to require them to be mobilized. The Xuanwu Guards are now the Xuanwu Army. In addition to our two guerrillas, there are eight battalions in total, as well as the Chinese Army and Guards. There are four battalions of soldiers, two guards on the left and right, and four battalions of Xiaoqi. As for the White Tiger Guards, because they often travel around the rivers and lakes, they have long been called the White Tiger Hall."
