The Chu family is located in the southwest region, with many lakes and water.Since entering the boundary of Qiyun Mountain, wooden stilted buildings have sprung up like bamboo shoots after rain from a distance.The humidity is naturally humid, but it doesn't make people feel stuffy and hot. It just makes people feel happy to see the clear blue water.

After getting off the high-speed rail, the Chu family's car was already waiting here. Chu Zeyun went to talk to the other side, then took Zhou Tong into the car and drove all the way to the depths of Qiyun Mountain.

Qiyun Mountain is the only majestic mountain in the vicinity that can be called a mountain, but it is far behind the continuous mountain peaks in the north. It is crawling in the tranquil water, like a Buddha lying on his side, propping his head , dozing happily with the corners of his mouth hooked.

Zhou Tong looked at the mountains and rivers all the way, and said: "All the good geomantic omens in the world are born in this place, no wonder the Chu family has a lot of talents."

Chu Zeyun was also very happy to hear that his family was being praised, and smiled a little shyly.

Luo Lianhai blushed when she heard this. He is also from the Chu family, but he is really not a talent, and he has nothing to do with talent.

Touching the position of his chest, Luo Lianhai felt that it was more painful there. After counting the days carefully, it was time to report to that side in a dozen days. Although the side didn't take his experiment seriously, they rarely Sending someone to check, but it doesn't mean that he can take advantage of the loopholes and not report to the above.

One less is death. Luo Lianhai has only lived for more than [-] years, and he hasn't lived enough, so he doesn't want to send his life away.

So ruthless, so fucking ruthless.

If he had known that he was risking his life to make a deal with them, he would not agree to death.

Pooh.

Luo Lianhai was scolding Chen En and Zhao Jingshan's master and servant in his heart, and when he raised his head, he inadvertently met Zhou Tong's smiling eyes, shrunk his head, and grinned awkwardly.

Chu Zeyun sighed, and said, "I already know what my cousin Lianhai has done wrong, but he is from the Chu family after all, so I still have to leave it to Grandpa to decide."

"Master Chu has always been kind-hearted." Zhou Tong responded.

"En." Chu Zeyun vaguely replied.

The car stopped halfway, Chu Zeyun explained: "The only way to go further is to walk, please trouble Zhou Tong and Cousin Lianhai to come down and take a walk."

The Chu family has many rules but they are not complicated. Most of them require members of the clan to respect the ancestors outside and support themselves inside.I heard that there were so many rules and regulations listed a hundred years ago that they couldn’t be memorized. Since Mr. Chu succeeded to the throne, the rules have been cut in half, and the children in the clan have become more energetic after seeing it.

But there are still some rules that cannot be abolished, which are passed down from the ancestors.

In front of the Chu family’s gate is a lake of water. The bluestone slabs are paved on the water surface. When walking past, it seems as if stepping on a fairyland on earth. Perhaps it is the nourishment of the Chu family’s spiritual energy. In this cold winter, there are still flowers blooming on the water surface. A small pink-white flower blooms one by one from time to time.Although the lotus is not in bloom, the lotus leaves are standing tall. The tender green color is matched with the blue lake water. It is refreshing to look at it at a glance.

Zhou Tong stepped on the stone slab, with lake water on both sides, he said: "I have heard that the Chu family's Stairway to Heaven is like a fairyland on earth, and it is so."

Chu Zeyun smiled and said, "If Zhou Tong likes it, he can stay here permanently."

"I would like to live here often, but there is no one to take care of the small shop at home. My dad knows that I am not in business, so he has to jump out of the coffin and beat me." Zhou Tong said jokingly.

Chu Zeyun laughed out loud.

When Zhou Tong turned around, he saw Ling Yuan a few steps behind them. Zhou Tong also slowed down to wait for Ling Yuan, and asked in a low voice, "What's wrong?"

Ling Yuan looked down at the water surface, his shadow was clearly reflected on the clear lake surface.

The handsome man frowned slightly, his pale lips were pursed tightly, his long hair was blown away and mixed with the wind.

Ling Yuan withdrew his gaze and said flatly, "It's nothing."

They walked all the way and entered the plaque of the Chu family. The voice of the old man Chu came from the inside. The voice was like a torrent of bells, and it was impressive: "Xiaotong, the Chu family welcomes you!"

Zhou Tong's heart warmed, and he bowed to Old Master Chu, but it was still Zhou Da's courtesy, Old Master Chu returned the salute, grabbed Zhou Tong's back and walked inside.

There were several Chu family members behind Mr. Chu. The youngest was only four or five years old. He was pulled by his mother and looked at Zhou Tong obediently. His eyes were dark and bright, so cute.

Zhou Tong smiled at the child, who blushed and smiled back.

As expected of the Chu family, even such a big baby is taught to be polite.

Chu Zeyun said hello to the elders, and followed after being greeted by the juniors.

It was time for lunch, and Mr. Chu had prepared a table of dishes for Zhou Tong to eat.

At the banquet, Mr. Chu opened a bottle of wine brewed by himself. It tasted sweet and soft, and even Zhou Tong, who was so drunk, drank three glasses in a row until Ling Yuan took the wine glass from Zhou Tong's hand and said: :"about there."

"But..." Zhou Tong looked at Ling Yuan pleadingly with wet eyes, "It's really delicious."

Ling Yuan: "..." Ling Yuan's Adam's apple rolled down, suppressing the throbbing in his heart, he brought the wine glass to his lips, and drank it all in one gulp, "Oh."

Zhou Tong: "..." Speechless, "Why are you like this..."

After drinking and eating, Mr. Chu chatted with Zhou Tong for a long time. The two of them were like old friends who hadn't seen each other for many years.

Chu Zeyun and Luo Lianhai have been awkwardly accompanying him all the time. Old Master Chu hardly put his eyes on Luo Lianhai, and left him alone for a long time. After a while, Old Master Chu said to Chu Zeyun slowly: " Ze Yun, is this the Luo Lianhai you mentioned?"

Luo Lianhai was so bored that he dozed off when he heard them chatting, but when he heard Mr. Chu call his name, half of the sleepiness went away, he stood up from the chair tremblingly, and said in a standard posture: "Junior Luo Lianhai, goodbye Mr. Chu."

"No." Elder Chu rolled his eyelids, and said coldly, "Zeyun has made it clear about you, what you have committed is outrageous, and according to the rules of the Chu family, you should be expelled from the sect, but I have always disliked things like this. So, this time is your doom, I will take you to Qi Yunze, but the matter of asking to use the Tongtian Drum depends entirely on your sincerity."

After a pause, Mr. Chu said in a colder tone: "If Tongtian Gu wished to do your thing, after the incident, you will be fined to enter the Chu family ancestral hall and face the wall to contemplate for a year to comfort the innocent souls in heaven."

Luo Lianhai hurriedly nodded and said: "I would like to follow the old gentleman's teaching."

After Luo Lianhai's matter was settled, Chu Zeyun took him away first, and when the two of them left, Zhou Tong said to Ling Yuan: "You go and tidy up the room first, I have something to say to Mr. Chu."

Ling Yuan stared straight at Zhou Tong, "Is there anything you can't say in front of me?"

Zhou Tong smiled: "Too many."

Ling Yuan: "..."

Zhou Tong: "Let's go."

Ling Yuan reluctantly left.

After Ling Yuan also left, Zhou Tong stood up and gave another bow to Old Master Chu. Old Master Chu was startled and asked, "What is Xiao Tong doing?"

Zhou Tong said: "Zhou Tong has an outrageous idea."

Mr. Chu asked, "What?"

Zhou Tong asked: "Old Mr. Chu knows that all those in the inner sect suffer from the five disadvantages and the three deficiencies. I committed the fault of life, but I don't want to be trapped by fate. I, I want to live a few more years..." These words Zhou Tong was ashamed to say that, although he had accepted this fate long ago, he had the thought of struggling at this moment, and his thought was considered a taboo among inner sect warlocks.

Old Mr. Chu was stunned, looked at Zhou Tong and sighed, feeling that God really didn't open his eyes.

An outstanding talent like Zhou Tong will become a great weapon in time, but he is limited by the destiny, and he will not live past thirty. Fate plays tricks on people.

"There is nothing I can do to restrain the fate of the five evils and the three defects..." Mr. Chu said quietly, "The widowhood I committed, being old and without a wife, can be regarded as the lighter one of the five evils and three defects, but it is still not A way to break it."

Zhou Tong's eyes drooped, is there really no other way?

Both of them became quiet, no one spoke, and after a while, old man Chu said: "Actually... Tongtiangu is not what ordinary people say."

Zhou Tong looked up at Mr. Chu.

Old Master Chu continued: "People in the world think that the Tongtian Drum is the magic tool of the Chu family's town house, but they don't know that the Chu family is actually a servant who has guarded the Tongtian Drum for generations. Otherwise, how could it be so easy to invite the Tongtian Drum?"

Zhou Tong asked, "What kind of fetish is the Tongtian Drum?"

"The family history of the family records that since the Chu family settled down in Qiyunze, Tongtiangu has existed. Qiyunze is a marsh that stretches to the sky. It seems to be stagnant water, but it is actually running water. Zeshui connects the ends of the world and is the rising dragon. place."

"Where is the dragon ascending?"

"There are koi carp practicing under Qiyun Lake. In February of every hundred years, the gate of heaven opens, koi leap, and the Tongtian Drum will appear to boost the morale of koi. Anyone who is lucky enough to see the grand occasion of carp leaping over the dragon gate will be enlightened. Hongmeng."

"There are other wonderful things."

"Yeah..." Mr. Chu looked at Zhou Tong and said, "This February is the day of Kailongmen, Xiaotong can go to try his luck. If there are koi that can cross the Dragonmen and ascend to become a dragon, Xiaotong can Ask that dragon."

Although the carp leaping over the dragon gate has always been bestowed with good blessings, it is an illusory thing in the end. There are very few koi that can practice in Qiyunze, and there are only a handful of koi that can leap over the dragon gate.

But... there is always a way, when there is no way to go, he will walk on any way that appears.

Zhou Tong bowed to Mr. Chu again, and said, "Then thank you Mr. Chu."

"Why are you being polite?"

Zhou Tong asked, "I don't know how long it will take to open the Dragon Gate."

"There are still ten days left, Xiao Tong can go back and make preparations." Having said that, Mr. Chu said, "I will take Luo Lianhai to see the Tongtian Drum tomorrow. I am willing to help Luo Lianhai solve the spell on him. Xiaotong can also go there to check the situation first and get ready."

"Thank you, Mr. Chu."

"Look at you, you're being polite again."

Zhou Tong pursed his lips and smiled softly.
