The room was pitch dark, and a soul appeared beside the bed, "Okay, I really know how to choose the day when I pretend to be asleep."
Uh-huh!
The breathless young man sat up suddenly, "Teacher, you have such a good eye, you can tell that the kid is just faking it!"
"You kid, I'm in the ring. How can you hide anything abnormal from me?" Mr. Ge was puzzled, with a puzzled look on his face. He didn't know why the young man in front of him suddenly pretended to be unconscious.
Lu Chen smiled bitterly, "The teacher doesn't know something. My father has been extremely strict with me since I was a child. If not, how could I have escaped this disaster? Besides, the Nine Nether Bird also caused some damage to me when it borrowed its body. It just happened to be that Vomit out the blood from the mouth."
"You kid, you are all plotting against me. If in the future I..." Before Lao Ge finished speaking, his eyes seemed a little unreal, and there were some things that Lu Chen couldn't understand.
"Teacher, you have the grace to save your disciples' lives and teach them their careers. How can the disciples do the same?" Lu Chen looked anxious.
Lu Yunfeng had been extremely strict with him since he was a child, with loyalty, filial piety and etiquette bearing the brunt. When his cultivation stagnated, Lu Yunfeng warned him again and again that he could understand his low strength, but he didn't know how to behave, so he would rather take action himself.
A teacher for a day is a father for a lifetime. Killing a teacher is like killing a father, and heaven and earth will not tolerate it.
"Alas! My teacher just said casually, you will know some things clearly in the future. The Nine Nether Bird in your body should be fine!"
"Hehe, I don't know where you got this Nine Dragon Ring, teacher. It's such a good thing. Not only can you separate two of them, it can actually suppress the extremely powerful Nine Nether Bird. It's really scary!"
Lu Chen took a look at the ring on his finger. Although the luster was a little dull, and even the excrement that Mr. Ge said was much less, the mystery of this ring really amazed Lu Chen.
"The Nine Dragon Ring is extraordinary. I have been in it for a long time. Unfortunately, I still cannot explore the depths of the ring. I always feel that there are many secrets inside, and there is an aura that makes my heart tremble."
Hearing this, Lu Chen couldn't help but feel tight in his heart. Nine Dragon Ring. He had entered that mysterious space several times inexplicably. At a glance, it was all a cemetery. "Could it be that that is the true face of Nine Dragon Ring? It's too scary. I want to Don’t tell your mentor!”
With such thoughts flashing through his mind, Lu Chen finally shook his head. Everything was still unknown. He wanted to wait until he had some clues before telling Mr. Ge everything.
That area was not simple, and it was not just the cemetery that he saw on the surface. The anxious sound at the end made him a little uneasy.
"Someone is coming!" Mr. Ge suddenly said. When Lu Chen heard this, he quickly turned over and lay down again.
As soon as I lay down, I heard a knock on the door outside!
"You kid, open the door for me!" An angry shout rang out.
Upon hearing the angry shouting, Lu Chen couldn't help but feel guilty, "I still didn't hide it!"
I had no choice but to get up and open the door.
"Father?" Lu Chen lowered his head and whispered.
"You kid, you are getting more and more courageous!" Lu Yunfeng looked ugly. He guessed that a lot of things must have happened to his son during this period. In the past, he was under strict supervision, but now he knows nothing about it.
"This..." Lu Chen scratched the back of his head, feeling very embarrassed. After all, the man in front of him was his father. He had grown up, and he naturally knew how good his father was to him.
"Aren't you afraid that your father will worry about this?"
"Worry, you also know that I will be worried. Your mother entrusted you to me when she left. If you are weak, it will be useless even if I open a hundred mouths."
"Dad, are you afraid of your mother?" Lu Chen covered his mouth and snickered.
"What? Am I afraid of your mother?" Lu Yunfeng roared, raising his hand to slap the boy in front of him.
"Aren't you afraid of your wife?" Before the slap fell, Lu Yunfeng couldn't help but mutter, but found that Lu Chen winked at him from time to time, turned around and almost fell to the ground.
Behind him, there were more than ten people, all senior members of the Lu family. In an instant, Lu Yunfeng's face turned purple.
"Third brother, we didn't hear anything!"
"Yunfeng, actually, how do you put this? Actually, actually, although I am the elder of the family, I have been very afraid of the family for so many years!"
"Hahaha……"
Everyone couldn't hold it in anymore, even Lu Chen laughed and bent over. Who didn't know that the eldest elder of the Lu family had lost his wife in middle age and never married, and now he actually said that he was still afraid of his family after all these years.
"Hmph!" Lu Yunfeng snorted coldly, "You guys come with me, and you guys too!"
Taking Lu Chen, the two Lu Yunshan brothers and several elders of the Lu family followed closely behind. Several figures moved all the way, and soon came to the foot of the back mountain, where a stone gate appeared in front of them.
Even Lu Chen has never entered the Lu family's secret room. This is where the Lu family discusses extremely confidential matters. Entering here means that you are already the core member of the Lu family.
Once you enter this door, the burden on your shoulders is different.
Looking at the stone gate in front of him, Lu Chen hesitated. If he took this step, his status in the Lu family would be completely different.
He is no longer the young master of the Lu family that outsiders casually call him. Over the years, the only people who have entered this place are the patriarch and contemporary elders of the Lu family. The two brothers Lu Yunshan still have the qualifications to compete for the position of patriarch Lu Yunfeng later.
"Let's go!" The eldest elder patted Lu Chen on the shoulder, "The Lu family has been in constant crisis these past few months. Everyone will see your contribution and remember it in their hearts. If you are not qualified, those two boys will probably come to the back mountain one after another. None of the qualifications.
The first elder looked at Lu Yunshan and the two, but the latter was silent and looked embarrassed. It was because of them that Lu Yunfeng almost died tragically, and the Lu family was almost driven out of the isolated city.
He nodded, took a step forward, and the stone door slammed shut behind him. This was the first time he entered the secret room. He glanced around and saw that besides huge rocks, there was a dry, dark passage leading deep into the mountain, hundreds of feet long, and soon it was At the end.
Lu Yunfeng walked to a stone wall, stretched out his hand and pressed it on the stone wall. With a click, a stone door opened on the side wall of the passage.
"come in!"
Light two candles.
"Are you surprised?" Lu Yunfeng looked at Lu Chen with a strange expression.
The latter nodded. Everything here was beyond his expectation. As a member of the Lu family, he naturally knew the importance of the Lu family's secret room. Not only in the past, even though the Lu family was now the only one in the isolated city, there were still many forces attacking Lu. The secret room idea.
Who would have thought that there was nothing else here but an ordinary stone room, which was beyond his expectation.
"I don't know how many forces in Gucheng are staring at this secret room. If they get it in the future, I wonder if they will be pissed to death!" Lu Yunfeng chuckled. When he entered this secret room, he was just like Lu Chen, full of curiosity and excitement. , but the result was beyond belief.
"This secret room is generally not opened casually. It is only opened once a year or even several years. Every time it is opened, something big will happen in Gucheng. The leader is the Lu family. This allows the forces in Gucheng to have control over this secret room. Lots of speculation.”
"Great Elder, according to what you said, isn't this secret room useless?" Lu Chen was confused. He really didn't know what the purpose of such a secret room was.
"How can it be useless, look!"
Looking in the direction of the elder's finger, Lu Yunfeng was taking out a purple clay pot, several teacups, and some tea leaves from a concave compartment on the wall. After boiling the water, cups of fragrant tea appeared in front of everyone.
"For so many years, the Lu family has been infighting. It's been a long time since we had tea like this. Thanks to your boy, we can still sit here!" Lu Yunfeng handed a cup of tea to Lu Chen, his eyes twinkling.
"Yes, we have been fighting for many years!" The great elder sighed as he looked at everyone.
At this moment, Lu Chen suddenly felt a little confused. This may be the function of this secret room, which surpasses any treasures and transcends any forbidden areas.
Only here, the senior officials of the Lu family have nothing else in mind but just want to drink a cup of tea and chat with their own clan members.
The tea was just ordinary tea with nothing special about it, but it gave Lu Chen an indescribable feeling.
The Lu family has been able to stand alone for so many years. Perhaps this secret room is the key. This is the place that truly unites the Lu family.
"You've drank the tea, you better talk about yourself!"
When Lu Chen was mentioned, everyone put their tea cups on the stone table. That day in the back mountain valley, they could clearly see that the black inflammation that covered the sky was spreading from the body of the young man they had watched grow up. of.
No one has ever forgotten the fear in Jiang Guyao's eyes!
"This..." Lu Chen was speechless and didn't know where to start.
"What? You have nothing to say to people like us!" Lu Yunfeng looked stern. He was extremely worried in his heart. He was worried that the young man he had been looking forward to would be damaged. He was also worried that the race Jiang Guyao mentioned was related to Lu Chen. Although he didn't Knowing that race, it is definitely not an ordinary force that can make Jiang Guyao so frightened.
"Forget it!" Lu Chen gritted his teeth and finally made up his mind.
"Father, do you still remember Black Flame Mountain?"
"Black Flame Mountain?" Lu Yunfeng was confused, and then he seemed to remember something. He stood up suddenly with an ugly expression on his face, stared at Lu Chen closely, and grabbed the latter's wrist in his hand, "Is everything normal?"
"Yunfeng, what's going on?" The elder was very puzzled when he saw Lu Yunfeng lose his composure. He did not go to Black Flame Mountain and his party at the beginning. The Lu family in the isolated city needed them to be in charge, and it was they who killed the remaining powerful enemies.
"There are rumors that there are Nine Nether Birds in Black Flame Mountain. When our two families teamed up to break into Black Flame Mountain, the Sima family was destroyed because of Nine Nether Birds. And the one that shrouded the lonely city for thousands of miles not long ago must also be Nine Nether Birds!"
When mentioning the Nine Nether Bird, Lu Yunfeng shook his head with a bitter look on his face. His aura alone made it impossible for them to resist at all.
Recalling the scene of Jiuyou Que's fight with that mysterious strong man, he was deeply shocked. Lu Yunfeng had never heard of the power of heaven and earth being evoked at every turn, let alone seeing him.
"When the Nine Nether Bird encountered a powerful enemy, it used the Heavenly Tribulation Divine Thunder to kill the powerful enemy. Unfortunately, it still failed to overcome the tribulation in the end, so it sneaked into the child's body!"
"What?" Not only Lu Yunfeng, but everyone present looked in disbelief that such a powerful being actually stayed in Lu Chen's body.
"Back then, the Nine Nether Bird was so powerful that it triggered the tribulation thunder of heaven and earth, obliterating the powerful enemy, and finally dissipated under the divine thunder. But I didn't expect it to lurk inside Lu Chen's body." Lu Yunfeng also exclaimed in amazement, his eyes constantly scanning the young man in front of him, full of worry. .
"Nephew, haven't you noticed anything abnormal in your body?" Lu Yunshan asked worriedly.
Not only Lu Yunshan, but others as well. In the past, the Lu family had constant private fights, but in front of them they were monolithic. They all understood the importance of Lu Chen.
After losing the young man in front of them, they had no doubt that the Lu family in the isolated city might have to be expelled!
Now, it can be said that Lu Chen alone has supported an abandoned family!
No one mentioned it, but everyone knew that anyone in the secret room could die, except Lu Chen!
