Chapter 581: Fame, wealth and fortune are nothing

I held the phone, staring at the short six words in a daze, and I didn't come back to my senses for a long time.

Although I only met old man Ku Rong twice, the origin of my relationship with him is definitely more than that.

In particular, he and my master are close friends. It was because he lent my master Wu Xiang Bodhi that my master dared to go to the Feng family to propose marriage for me.

At this moment, when I suddenly learned that old man Ku Rong had passed away, my heart suddenly became empty.

"Senior Ku Rong, rest in peace." I closed my eyes and took a deep breath, turned my head to look at Chu Jiu, and when I saw that she was sleeping soundly, I quietly got up.

No matter what, I have to send Senior Kurong off, even if it means that I am replacing my master and fulfilling the friendship between friends.

But just as I stood up, my mobile phone suddenly vibrated again.

I took it out and saw that I had received another text message. I

clicked on the text message and saw that it said: I have arranged the teacher's funeral, don't worry, there is no need to come to condolences.

Although I am not familiar with the number that sent these two text messages, I know that the person who sent the text messages is Qin Jianing. I

was slightly stunned when I looked at the text messages, and after a long time, I shook my head and smiled bitterly.

"It's better not to go. I guess Senior Kurong must have died in disgrace after the poison of the snake broke out. If I go, it will ruin Senior Kurong's reputation. In this case, I will fulfill Senior Kurong's wish." At

this moment, my heart was not only empty, but even inexplicably, I felt a sense of sadness in my heart.

Life in the world is only a short hundred years. Some people fight against the sky, some fight against others, some draw their swords and ride horses, and some are the best in the world, but in the end?

Isn't it all in vain?

No matter how brilliant and charming you are, no matter how successful you are, in the end, won't you turn into a pile of yellow earth, and your fame and fortune will be in vain?

I turned my head and looked at Chujiu who was still sleeping soundly, and couldn't help but smile knowingly.

"Only by settling grievances and not betraying the one you love can you say that your life in this world is not in vain!"

"What are you laughing at?" Suddenly, Chujiu opened his eyes and looked at me and asked.

I was stunned: "Aren't you... asleep?"

"Can't I wake up?" Chujiu smiled and said, "Do you have something to go out?"

I shook my head. Seeing this, Chujiu asked again: "If you have something to do, go."

"Nothing, sleep." After I finished speaking, I crawled into Chujiu's quilt, pulled Chujiu into my arms, smelled her hair, and fell asleep.

...

...

For the next period of time, Chujiu and I basically went from one place to another. Every day, I practiced and then went to Jishitang to visit the old man of the Feng family.

The old man's blood is extremely strong. Every day when Chu Jiu and I go to Jishitang, we will find that the old man's body is recovering at a speed visible to the naked eye.

In just a few days, the old man's sparse hair has become thick again, and his skinny body has completely recovered to its original appearance. Although his face is full of wrinkles, it is glowing with health. Obviously, the old man has completely recovered.

The most important thing is that every time I see the old man, I feel... a faint sense of oppression.

I know that it is because the old man's Taoism has not been completely recovered, which leads to some inability to suppress the Qi in his body, thus letting the pressure flow out and causing a sense of oppression.

But this situation disappeared after a week. The old man also left Jishitang on this day and returned to the Feng family villa.

That night, the Feng family prepared a table of wine and food to welcome the old man.

At this moment, the Feng family villa can be said to have three generations living together. The old man of the Feng family sat in the first seat, and on the right was Feng Changhe, and below was the mistress of the Feng family, and then Chujiu and me, and next to me was Feng Churan.

The position on the left hand side of the old man was empty, because that position belonged to Feng Zhihe, but now, Feng Zhihe still has no news.

Chujiu had also inquired about the news from another branch of the Feng family. The news he got was that the Miao village was closed. There seemed to be a plague of insects in the Miao village. Insects were rampant, livestock died, and poisonous fog enveloped the entire village.

But no one rushed in to find out what happened to the people in the village.

"Zhihe is such a person, something bad will happen sooner or later." The old man couldn't help but sighed when he saw Kong Kong's actions.

Hearing this, Feng Changhe said, "Father, Zhihe has been gone for more than a week. Logically, he should have returned earlier. Moreover, the village of my second uncle seems to have been massacred by Zhihe, but Zhihe did not return..."

At this point, Feng Changhe paused, and the rest of the people in the room fell silent.

In fact, there was one thing Feng Changhe did not dare to say in front of his grandfather, that is, Feng Zhihe is very likely to be... dead!

According to the situation in the village, it is completely impossible to survive in the village. Not to mention people, even insects are estimated to be dead.

And Feng Zhihe, after killing everyone in the village, is very likely to have not been able to get out of the poisonous fog.

This meal was spent in a depressing atmosphere. After the meal, Feng Changhe wanted to let Chujiu and I sleep here, but the old man of the Feng family smiled and waved his hand, saying: "Changhe, as a father, you should give young people some time alone."

Feng Changhe smiled when he heard it, and then turned around and went upstairs alone, but his back looked a little lonely.

"Chujiu, your father and I have discussed it. We will get married when you reach the legal age for marriage. However, if you are in a hurry, you can get married first." The old man of the Feng family looked at Chujiu and me and said with a smile.

Hearing this, I turned my head to look at Chujiu, and saw Chujiu blushing and lowering her head. Seeing me looking at her, she asked, "What do you think?"

"I'm fine with it. I'll listen to you." I said with a smile.

Chujiu thought for a moment and said, "The wedding ceremony is just a formality. There's no need to make such a fuss."

"Haha, okay, you young people's affairs, you can make your own decisions. We are old and don't understand young people's affairs!" After the old man finished speaking, he got up and walked upstairs.

I glanced at Feng Churan who was sitting on the sofa and watching anime, and then said, "Let's go back."

Chujiu nodded, and then the two of us drove straight to the apartment.

However, just as we were about to return to the apartment, my phone suddenly vibrated.

I took it out and saw that someone had sent me a text message, which said: We should meet each other

. The sender was Qin Jianing!
