Chapter 190 The Secret of the Chen Family The scene of the arrest warrant shattering and burning shocked Liu people standing behind him were also shocked. The arrest warrant is destroyed? "You...!" Liu Bingfeng was furious and raised his head to glare at Chen Xian. He didn't see how Chen Xian did it, but the arrest warrant couldn't have been shattered or burned for no reason. It must have been human error. Chen Xian didn't expect that Liu Bingfeng would also get a warrant for his arrest. What's wrong with the warrant? "You destroyed the arrest warrant yourself, why are you looking at me?" Chen Xian had a blank expression. Liu Bingfeng clenched his fists and said, "Even without the arrest warrant, I will still arrest you!" He turned around and shouted, "Surround this place and don't let anyone go..." click! Before Liu Bingfeng could finish his words, someone grabbed his neck. Everyone present was stunned. Liao Huaiyuan, who had been standing nearby and planning to watch first, also widened his eyes and stared at Liu Bingfeng who was picked up by Chen Xian by pinching his neck, his face full of horror.
Liu Bingfeng was the chief of the Demon-Suppression Division and a master of Jade Sea, yet he was caught in an instant. Liu Shijie, Yu Shenhai, Li Mingfu and others also widened their eyes, their faces full of disbelief. "What did you just say?" Chen Xian pinched Liu Bingfeng's neck. Liu Bingfeng's face turned red, his limbs twisted wildly, and he couldn't utter a word. "You useless thing, and you're still the chief of the Demon Suppression Division? Liu Shifu has been colluding with demons for decades, bullying the townspeople, taking lives lightly, and you haven't made a big move. Now that something's happened, you haven't conducted a serious investigation, and you're only thinking of taking me as your punishment?" "Just because you ants are qualified to take me down?" "Go back and tell Cheng Guheng that if he still hasn't figured out Liu Shifu's crimes before dark, I will go to the county town to find him in person tomorrow." After saying that, Chen Xian kicked Liu Bingfeng out of Liuquan Town. He fell into a rice field with a thud, covered in mud and blood coming out of his mouth. Everyone was completely shocked, and each of them looked at Chen Xian with eyes filled with horror. With one kick, Liu Bingfeng disappeared! "What? You still want me to ask you to leave?" Chen Xian stood there, with his hands behind his back, staring at everyone. Everyone who met Chen Xian's eyes felt pain in their eyes. "How strong is he?" Liao Huaiyuan was also a man who had seen a bit of the world. The young man in front of him was definitely not in the Jade Sea Realm. He was even at the General Knowledge and Dao Foundation level. This is simply a monster! "Retreat, retreat quickly!" Since Liu Bingfeng was not there, Liao Huaiyuan could give orders. He shouted loudly and ran faster than his subordinates. Soon, hundreds of people disappeared in Chen Xian's yard. The neighbors around were all stunned, looking at Chen Xian with fear in their eyes. "Brother, you are so awesome!" Chen Rong was also shocked. When her brother kicked Liu Bingfeng away just now, she kept staring at him with her big eyes. Until she could no longer see Liu Bingfeng, she was still wondering in her heart, is her brother's kick so powerful? Can a person kick that high? "That's nothing!" Chen Xian turned around and smiled, saying, "I hope it didn't scare you and dad."
"No, I'm used to it!" Chen Rong shook his head. These days, she watched her brother fighting and killing, and she went from being afraid, timid and nervous at first to finding it very fun now. There was a flash of disbelief in Chen Quan's cloudy old eyes. Although he was still very worried about his son's safety, he could also see that his son was not an ordinary person. After all, being able to kick someone so high is not something that ordinary people can do. Besides, that man is a high-ranking official in the Demon Suppression Bureau, and he should be very powerful. After driving everyone away, Chen Xian went to find Liu Shigang. Liu Shigang had already heard the news that the chiefs of the Demon Suppression Division and the City Defense Division were coming to capture Chen Xian. He was just about to go to Chen Xian's house to check out the situation, but as soon as he left the house, Chen Xian showed up. "Master Chen!" Liu Shigang was stunned for a moment, "Aren't you at home?" Chen Xian smiled and said, "Can't I go out and walk around at home?" Liu Shigang opened his mouth and said: "Then they...!" "Let's go!" Chen Xian said indifferently. Liu Bingfeng, Liao Huaiyuan and others left, but Liu Shijie did not leave. He returned to the Liu Mansion and hugged his son and cried bitterly. He must have planned to stay in the town to bury his son. After hearing this, Liu Shigang took a deep breath and did not ask any more questions. He very politely invited Chen Xian into his home. Chen Xian didn't waste any words with Liu Shigang. Although Liu Shigang was not an official, he was very prestigious in the town and knew a lot about Liu Shifu's affairs. Liu Shifu died, and almost all the people in the town who had followed Liu Shifu before began to move closer to Liu Shigang. To be honest, Liu Shigang was quite grateful to Chen Xian. After Chen Xian made such a fuss, he had a hope of becoming the next mayor of Liuquan Town. That was a ninth-rank official, and people with official positions were naturally a hundred times better than those with gentry status. Liu Shigang had people collect and organize Liu Shifu's crimes, which were not much different from what Ma San knew, but there were more than Ma San's. A total of 134 crimes were listed, and each crime was enough to sentence Liu Shifu to death. At the same time, Liu Shigang also handed over the financial account books that he had searched from the Liu Mansion. There were both open and hidden books, and all the collection and expenditure were recorded in great detail. Even who was bribed, who was given gifts, who was bought land and estates for, how much tax was paid every year, and how much money was spent on wine and tea were all written down in detail. Chen Xian looked through them one by one and said, "Let the townspeople see them and put their fingerprints on them, and send them to me before dark. I'll take the account book." Holding the two account books, he thought for a moment and said, "The town doesn't need any gangs. Liu Shifu is dead, and Liu Shijie is in the county. His prestige in the town is not as high as yours." "If the Liu Gang finds you, you can just disband them. If they don't find you, I will make my own arrangements." "Ma San is still useful for the time being, but we have to keep an eye on him. When the next mayor takes office, he will deal with him and disband the Red Wolf Gang, and the town will be at peace." Liu Shigang nodded repeatedly. After a little hesitation, he asked, "Mr. Chen, I would like to ask you what rank you hold now, so that I can be more confident." He could see that Chen Xian must be an official and was definitely not some idler who had just retired from the army at the border. Based on Chen Xian's strength, he can't be an idle person.
He has lived for so many years, so he still has some brains and eyesight. Moreover, Chen Xian is calm and composed in doing things. He killed Liu Shifu, an official appointed by the imperial court, and he has not even thought of escaping until now. You can imagine that he is very confident. If you don’t have a powerful backer, then you yourself will be the backer. Chen Xian smiled and glanced at Liu Shigang: "You are much better than Liu Shifu. For me, there is no need to ask so many questions. I just want Liuquan Town to be peaceful and the townspeople to live and work in peace. As long as you can do a good job, the next mayor may not be you." After hearing this, Liu Shigang didn't ask any more questions. The fact that Chen Xian could say this proved that he held an official position and that his fate was in his hands. "Mr. Chen, don't worry. Although I am not talented, I do have some ambitions in my heart. If possible, I would like to give it a try." Liu Shigang stood up and bowed to Chen Xian. Chen Xian nodded and said, "Just do as I just said." "It's Mr. Chen!" Liu Shigang nodded repeatedly. The reason why he did not call Chen Xian "Sir Chen" was because Chen Xian had not yet revealed his true identity, so he could only address him as "Young Master". "There is one more thing. Please check it for me. The courier in town sent me some silver money from the border. It was less than thirty taels, but my family didn't receive a single copper coin." "Is there such a thing?" Liu Shigang frowned, then nodded and said, "Don't worry, Master Chen, I will check it out right away." After leaving Liu Shigang's house, Chen Xian went to the tailor shop. When the owner of the tailor shop saw Chen Xian, he politely took out the new clothes. Chen Xian had paid for the clothes, so he just took the new clothes and left. back home. When Chen Rong saw the new clothes, he was very happy. He held the new clothes in his arms and tried them on, but was reluctant to put them on. Chen Xian asked her to try them on, but the little girl said she had to wait until she took a bath before she could wear new clothes. "Dad, these two pieces are yours!" Chen Xian put Chen Quan's two new pieces of clothes on the bed. Chen Quan was still quite happy, and nodded, "Son, you must have spent a lot of money." Chen Xian smiled and said, "It didn't cost much." Chen Quan nodded and said, "Son, you have driven away the people from the Demon Suppression Bureau. What are your plans next?" Chen Xian said: "Tomorrow morning, we will go to the county town." "Going to the county seat?" When Chen Quan heard that they were going to the county town, he hurriedly asked, "What for?" Chen Rong also ran in, "Brother, are you here to look for Sister Yujiao?" Chen Xian smiled and said, "I guess so." He temporarily planned to let Liu Shigang handle the affairs of the town. As long as he got the evidence of Liu Shifu's crime and the account books, he could take his sister and father to the county town.
The City Lord's Mansion and the Demon Suppression Bureau will never come to Liuquan Town again. Willow Springs could be quiet for a while. When Chen Quan heard that he was going to find the Cai family, the smile on his face suddenly disappeared. Cai Yujiao is indeed a good child, but Mr. Cai Jinghong of the Cai family looks down on the Chen family, and going to the county town to look for her will only result in a cold reception. "Son, Dad won't go. You and your sister go see Yujiao and then come back." he said. Chen Xian shook his head: "Dad, I may not come back after leaving town this time." "what?" Upon hearing this, Chen Rong and Chen Quan were both stunned. "Not coming back?" "Where do you live then?" Both of them stared at Chen Xian. Chen Xian said: "I have my own arrangements, you just follow me." Chen Quan shook his head when he heard this: "Son, Dad won't go there. Liuquan Town is our Chen family's ancestral land. Our Chen family has lived here for generations. When Dad dies in the future, he will be buried here..." "Dad, aren't you thinking too far ahead now? Besides, your body is recovering day by day. Why mention death? I hope you live a hundred years." Chen Xian said speechlessly. Chen Quan had practiced martial arts before, but he never became famous. His health got worse day by day after he became ill. In the past four or five days, he has been drinking the boiled water soaked with body-refining pills and taking some medicine, and his health is getting better and better. After a while, when he has completely recovered, he will find a way to cure Chen Quan's tuberculosis. If ordinary medical skills can't cure it, then practice martial arts related to this aspect, or health-preserving exercises, there must be a way to cure it. "Longevity?" Chen Quan smiled bitterly, wishing he could live to be a hundred years old. There are many people in this world who want to live to be a hundred years old, but how many can actually live to that age? "Dad, I want to be with my brother." Chen Rong pulled the corner of Chen Quan's clothes. As for the town, ever since her sister Yujiao left, she had no attachment to it except for her father at home, and sometimes even had nightmares. She really wanted to leave this place and see the bigger world. Now that her brother is taking her, she really wants to go out. But if her father didn't go and left him at home, she would also be worried and had no intention of going out with her brother. Seeing the hope in Chen Rongshui's big eyes, Chen Quan sighed and said, "Okay, but Dad will still come back in the future!" "Great!" Chen Rong jumped for joy. Chen Xian frowned: "Dad, Liuquan Town is surrounded by mountains, there is nothing good to see. How about we change our ancestral home to a bigger city?" "Mountain?" When talking about mountains, Chen Quan's expression became dull, as if he was recalling something.
After a moment, he stood up suddenly, stared at Chen Xian and said excitedly: "Xiao Xian, our Chen family still has a mountain." "a mountain?" Both Chen Xian and his sister looked at Chen Quan with curiosity. What's so special about a mountain? Excited Chen Quan sat back down, and asked Chen Xian and his sister to move stools and sit in front of him, and began to talk about the past. "My Chen family has been in Liuquan Town for generations... No, it was not called Liuquan Town three hundred years ago, it was called Qingshan Town." "Qingshan Town?" Chen Quan and his sister were very surprised, obviously they had never heard of it. Chen Quan didn't care about the expressions of the two people and continued, "Three hundred years ago, our Chen family was considered a wealthy family in the town and had great prestige. Since the Liu family came..." It took Chen Quan half an hour to finish his story, and Chen Xian and his sister were just listening to a story. The thing is, Liuquan Town was called Qingshan Town three hundred years ago. The Chen family has lived in Qingshan Town for generations, dating back to the Warring States Period, more than three thousand years ago. The Warring States Period ended, the Shang Dynasty was established, and Qingshan Town was still Qingshan Town. At that time, the Chen family was the mayor of Qingshan Town. Later, the Great Shang Dynasty was destroyed, and during the Daqing Dynasty, Qingshan Town was still Qingshan Town. The Chen family still has great prestige in the town, and they take turns serving as mayor with the Wang and Li families, but the mountain has always belonged to the Chen family. When the Daqing Dynasty was destroyed and the Daning Dynasty came to power, Qingshan Town remained unchanged. However, it was not until three hundred years ago that a wealthy family named Liu came to the town, apparently seeking refuge in Qingshan Town. Because they were rich and charitable, they quickly established themselves in the town. As time went by, the Liu family became more and more prestigious in the town. Less than fifty years later, a martial arts genius emerged from the Liu family. That man was called Liu Quan. He became the mayor of the town and changed the name of Qingshan Town to Liuquan Town. Since then, the Liu family has always been the dominant family in the town, so the name of the town has never changed. But one hundred and seventy years ago, the Chen family fell into decline. The mountain was finally occupied by the Liu family. In fact, the ancestors of the Chen family were also warriors at that time, but the Chen family was suppressed by Liu Quan, who had reached the Jade Sea Realm. For the small town, a warrior who has reached the peak of the Jade Sea Realm is a very terrifying existence. The Chen family's martial arts skills were not passed down because an ancestor died inexplicably, and the descendants were unable to study and understand the skills left behind, so the Chen family's martial arts completely declined. When it was passed to Chen Quan's father, he was not even a physical warrior. By the time Chen Quan arrived, he had no talent for martial arts, and after seven or eight years of wandering outside, he had not yet mastered the art of physical training. Not only that, the Chen family also became increasingly decadent.
Originally there were three branch lines passed down, but two of them could not stand the suppression of the Liu family and moved away from Liuquan Town. Therefore, Chen Quan is the only branch of the Chen family left in the town. Chen Quan knew that learning martial arts was difficult, so he did not take out the Chen family's cultivation method. He thought that if Chen Xian went out to learn martial arts and failed, he would come back and work as a waiter for the Liu family, save money to marry a wife, and continue the family line. Who knew that Chen Xian had made great progress in his cultivation? Chen Quan was very pleased about this. So when Chen Xian mentioned the mountain, a forgotten memory emerged. When Chen Quan's father, Chen Xian's grandfather, died, he repeatedly reminded Chen Quan that if any of the Chen family's descendants achieved success in martial arts, they must take back the Chen family's mountain. "That mountain is Qinghulu Mountain!" Chen Quan said excitedly. Chen Xian remembered Qinghulu Mountain, which was a gourd-shaped mountain. It was the largest mountain within a radius of 500 miles in Liuquan Town. Qinghulu Mountain was ten miles southwest of the town. The old ditch that Liu Shifu went to before was also part of Qinghulu Mountain. "Dad, it's just a mountain. What's so special about it?" Chen Xian frowned. "Dad, I don't know what's so rare about it. Anyway, this is our Chen family's mountain. No matter whether it's rare or not, we have to take it back." Chen Quan said. Chen Xian nodded: "Okay, let's not talk about Qinghu Mountain, all the mountains in Liuquan Town belong to my Chen family, okay?" Chen Quan was stunned for a moment, then waved his hand and said, "I don't care about other mountains, I only want Qinghu Mountain." "Okay, okay, I want Qinghu Mountain!" Chen Xian nodded repeatedly and said, "Dad, where is the cultivation method of our Chen family?" "Oh yes!" Chen Quan slapped his thigh and stood up, saying, "You wait." Chen Xian and his sister frowned because Chen Quan crawled under the bed and groped around for a while before crawling out covered in dust and holding a heavy stone box in his hands. "In the stone box!" Chen Quan dusted it off, handed it to Chen Xian and said. Chen Xian took it. The stone box was quite heavy in his hand. It was embroidered with ancient patterns, like a gourd, with a sword shape next to it, and some patterns he didn't recognize. When the stone box was opened, an ancient booklet was found inside with the words: Qingshan Jue written on it. "Qingshan Jue? Could this be the origin of the name Qingshan Town?" Chen Xian looked up at Chen Quan. Chen Quan shook his head. Seeing this, Chen Xian put down the stone box and picked up the Qingshan Jue to read it. As he read on, Chen Xian frowned slightly. He could understand a little at the beginning, but he couldn't understand it anymore later on. "Health-preserving exercises?" The first level of the Qingshan Jue formula is a health-preserving exercise called the Qingshan Qi-nourishing Method. The second level of mantras starts to contain a lot of nonsense, which is not a martial arts practice at all.
What about the true qi connecting the nine orifices, the mountains and seas refining the true essence, the sky-locking cloud pillar, the golden light floating on the green mountains... Chen Xian frowned and didn't finish reading it. He felt that he didn't understand it at all, and it had nothing to do with martial arts training, so he had no interest in it. But his father can practice the first level of the formula. He had originally been thinking of finding a health-preserving exercise for Chen Quan to practice, and this was just a coincidence. He secretly memorized the formula for the first level, intending to guide Chen Quan in his practice when he had time later. "Xiao Rong, you should also take a look at our Chen family's martial arts. Even if you don't know how to practice, you have to memorize it." After Chen Xian memorized the first level of the formula, he gave the [Qingshan Jue] to Chen Rong. "Okay brother, I will remember it carefully!" Chen Rong nodded, took it and began to read it. After a while, she looked up and asked awkwardly, "Brother, what is this?" "...!" Chen Xian was stunned for a moment, and said, "Peng, it means that the vitality is as vigorous as plants." "oh oh!" Chen Rong nodded and continued reading. At this moment, a dazzling golden light flashed before Chen Xian's eyes. It is a panel prompt. (End of this chapter)
