Stealing the Pen: Kirin's Primordial Lotus

Chapter 39: Ten Thousand Mountains

Er Yuehong stood in the study for half the night, and in the second half of the night he took the jar of wine and went to the ancestral hall of the Hong Mansion.

The next day, Old Man Hong was delighted to have a son who was drunk, reeked of alcohol, and looked sloppy.

Seeing his son unable to even walk straight, Old Man Hong asked someone to help Er Yuehong to the yard to rest.

"Master Qin, the new Changsha defense officer is here."

"Jinling has sent people from that faction again?"

"His surname is Wang. The new garrison officer's surname is Zhang, and his name is Qishan. He is accompanied by a team of personal soldiers, all with the surname Zhang."

"Zhang Qishan? A member of the Zhang family?"

Qin Fuguang and Di Xin were having a meal in the restaurant, listening to the butler beside them talking about the new defense officer. However, they did not expect that the Zhang family, which was destroyed by the Wang family's interference, would end up working for the Wang family.

"Then Zhang Qishan is not considered a member of the Zhang family. His father is indeed a direct descendant of the Zhang family, and his grandfather was the previous head of the Zhang family. However, his mother is the daughter of a hunter family at the foot of the mountain."

"So his father was driven out by his grandfather and cut off one of his arms. Zhang Qishan's father still wanted his son to return to the Zhang family, so he gave his son a Qiongqi tattoo."

"But the Zhang Xishan next to Zhang Qishan is a direct descendant of the Zhang family. He should be the one sent by his grandfather. They grew up together."

"A fake clan leader who wants to overthrow the Zhang family will kill everyone else, but when it comes to his own family, he will try to make a big deal out of a small matter."

"That's all he has achieved. What great things can you expect him to accomplish?"

"That's right. A bastard from the legitimate family with the most impure bloodline can become the clan leader. It seems that they have long forgotten the rules that their family was supposed to abide by, and are only focused on power."

"You are really joking, what rights? What rights do they have? Can a family that has forgotten its ancestors use the word rights?"

"That's right. Instead of looking for the reason why their bloodline regressed, they blamed Uncle Yang for not solving their bloodline problem. Otherwise, how could they only live to such a young age?"

Qin Fuguang and Di Xin talked at length about their ages in front of the butler, and while observing the butler's facial expression, they inadvertently revealed that they could live forever.

After talking for a while, Qin Fuguang and Di Xin didn't find anything wrong with the housekeeper, so they felt relieved.

"Old Yu, aren't you curious about us?"

"Master Qin and Master Di are both god-like figures. It is only within the expectations of this old servant that they can live forever."

"Besides, if it weren't for the two masters, I'm afraid there would be no Old Yu now. I am a stubborn person and I have never married or had children. My parents were killed by the Japanese. Now one person can feed the whole family."

"As an old servant, I am able to serve you two masters in this life. That is the blessing my Yu family accumulated in the previous life." As the housekeeper said this, his eyes were red and he raised his hand to wipe the corners of his eyes.

"I am already content that you two masters have kept me here to work for you and that I can enjoy a life I never imagined before."

"Old Yu, now you know that neither of us are ordinary people, so naturally we have to avoid you in some things."

"After all, in times of war, all kinds of monsters and demons emerge, and we have to be on guard."

"I understand that people nowadays have evil hearts. They help others to deal with their own people without even considering whether they are on the same side as them."

When the housekeeper mentioned it, he thought of those idle hooligans who broke into their village with the Japanese devils from the Sakura Country.

The housekeeper was preparing to arrange a marriage at that time. The couple was a girl from the same village, and the two families knew each other well. All that was missing was a ceremony.

Who knew that day there would be burning, killing and looting like a swarm of loots?

The housekeeper was hidden in the cellar by his parents and covered with thick straw to avoid being slaughtered.

When the butler came out of the cellar, his parents were dead, and the girl who was to be engaged was raped by those beasts and died by hitting a pillar.

The housekeeper's family was destroyed and all his relatives were killed in just one day. If Qin Fuguang and Di Xin had not passed by, he would probably have died at the hands of the Japanese invaders who had launched a surprise attack.

"Old Yu, you have been in the mansion for many years. We know everything you have done. From now on, just stay in the mansion and follow us when we go out."

"Thank you, Master Qin, thank you, Master Di." The butler knelt on the ground with red eyes from crying.
