Chapter 414: Jie Yuchen: Love-brained is not worth caring about
On the day when the Xie family disbanded, it was drizzling, which was very appropriate.
Jie Lian was still sitting on the threshold of the Jie family's ancestral home with an expressionless face, staring at the ground with empty eyes, feeling the people coming and going and moving things around him, without saying a word or moving a muscle.
After the people who counted the assets left, the Xie family's old house was left with only bare walls.
All of the Xie family's properties and collections were liquidated. Originally, the Xie family's old house was going to be mortgaged to the bank, but it was Wu Erbai who stepped in to save it.
Xie Yuchen was originally still hesitating whether to take action, but since Wu Erbai was willing to take the initiative to help, it saved him some trouble.
The rain was getting heavier and heavier, and there was no one around. Jie Lian stood up stiffly and slowly turned to look at the Jie family's now empty and lonely old house.
After a long time, he slowly sighed.
Back then, when Xiaohua was eight years old and took charge of the household, he knew exactly how hard that child's life was...
It’s just that the Nine Gates were mired in a quagmire back then, and Third Brother… forget it, let’s not talk about it.
Thinking about the time when Xie Yuchen took on the position of the head of the family at the age of eight, and his current situation was not much better, Xie Lian sighed again.
Maybe this is the cycle of cause and effect, retribution.
When he was young and ignorant, he didn't realize it. It was only after he really took over the position of head of the family that he realized that managing a family is difficult, and managing a group is even more difficult. As a leader, there are too many things to consider.
The beating he received from his father while he was kneeling in the ancestral hall was not unjust at all.
Some of his previous ideas were taken for granted.
Mr. Ba once predicted Xiaohua's fortune, saying that he would be a noble man of the Nine Gates. Now this noble man has extended the life of the Jie family for so many years.
The Zhang family is a good place to stay. I hope Xiaohua can live a peaceful and happy life in the future.
The Xie family did not finish their liquidation and disbandment until three o'clock in the afternoon. Xie Yuchen had originally planned to go see Xie Lianhuan the next morning.
I don't want to watch the fun, but I just want to show some concern for my loved ones out of the last bit of warmth they have left.
He was a little bit worried that Jie Lian still couldn't accept the reality, and might do something stupid in his excitement, like becoming depressed.
As a result, for some unknown reason, Xie Lianheng packed himself up that night, rolled up his bedding and moved into the Wu family and Wu Sansheng's yard.
When Xie Yuchen heard the news, he was so angry that he almost laughed.
Wow, I thought you two broke up a long time ago, but I didn’t expect you two were still in touch and have reunited now!
I don't care about you for no reason!
Rather than showing you that little bit of kindness and letting it become a joke, I might as well leave this kindness to Hei Xia Zi.
At least give him more money when calculating his year-end bonus, and he can also compliment me by saying that the boss is generous and kind-hearted.
It’s of no use giving it to you!
Then Xie Yuchen thought again that the unlucky Wu Sansheng had been implicated by his own younger brother and was put in jail, so everyone was happy.
Even if Xie Lian moved into the Wu family, they could not live together.
Because Wu Sansheng had done a good job of cleaning up the mess before, there was little evidence to confirm. After paying a large amount of fines, the remaining sentence would not be more than a few years according to the law. Wu Xie tried his best to put the blame on his third uncle.
The main point is that as long as it is not the death penalty, the sentence can be as severe as possible. He can be regarded as a model of a "filial son and grandson".
What’s more crucial is that, for some unknown reason, the attitudes of the other members of the Wu family regarding Wu Sansheng’s arrest are also quite subtle.
After learning that he would not be sentenced to death, apart from Wu Erbai's two words of advice to the police, Wuxie was the only one who put the interests of the country above his own and frantically provided clues to the police.
The old lady and the eldest son of the Wu family didn't even ask a single question about this matter.
Those who know about the Nine Gates and those who don’t are all laughing at the joke.
It will take some time for Wu Sansheng's final judgment to come down, but the time for the Luotian Grand Ceremony has arrived as scheduled.
This year's Luotian Grand Ceremony attracted many more participants than in previous years, mainly because the old Taoist priest announced that all those who met the requirements, regardless of whether they were from Mount Longhu or were Taoists, were allowed to participate.
Because this scene is mainly to give the Zhang family a chance to show off their muscles and to provoke Quan Xing to fight, the fight will definitely be very intense, so the old Taoist priest closed the scenic area in front of Longhu Mountain for a few days and sent away ordinary tourists.
The Zhang family sent people here to cause trouble this time... Oh, no, it should be said that they sent people here to exchange ideas and learn from each other. In fact, there are not many people.
There were only eight people who joined in public, all of them were young people from the "Hai" and "Xuan" generations.
Those who came were all young people selected by drawing lots from the clan. The only two special ones were Liu Shang, who was brought by Zhang Molan to join in the fun, so he counted as one, and Zhang Chulan, who was brought by Zhang Hailou and Zhang Benling to join in the fun, so he also counted as one.
In fact, they came in batches. The masters who came to maintain order included the two elders Zhang Moyu and Zhang Molan, while Zhang Qiling and Hei Xiazi came just for fun.
Zhang Qiling and his companions hid in the crowd and came here anonymously.
Zhang Benling ostensibly represents the Zhang family and is the leader of this team. He is responsible for sitting on the podium and speaking official language to others. He also wants to cooperate with the Tianxia Group by the way.
After all, Feng Zhenghao is not only a powerful cultivator, but also very talented in business. It is not easy to find a partner with vision and strength these days.
Before entering the Luotian Dajiao competition venue, there is an iron chain bridge that you must walk across to be eligible to enter the competition.
This was not difficult for the Zhang family members. Although the current concentration of spiritual energy was not enough to cultivate techniques such as flying with a sword, they could still make some simple use of the spiritual energy.
What's more, the Zhang family's daily training requires extremely high control over the body.
For the Zhang family who had successfully completed their mission, let alone a thick iron chain bridge like this one, even if it was a steel wire, as long as it could bear their weight, they could walk across it steadily.
These basic abilities have been acquired through training bit by bit in the Zhang family.
When Zhang Chulan saw the strange people using various methods to cross the iron chain bridge, a dark light flashed in his eyes, and he habitually wanted to hide something.
After all, as long as you get through it, there is no limit to the means.
Flying over is passing, walking over is passing, crawling over is also passing, what's the difference?
If he could hide a trick here, his opponent would definitely underestimate him when he officially participates. It should be noted that underestimating the enemy is a taboo in military strategy. This way he could win more easily. If he could keep playing the pig and eating the tiger, maybe he could go further in this competition.
After much thought, Zhang Chulan decided to crawl over using his hands and feet, using this awkward posture to hide his strength to the greatest extent.
As a result, as soon as he started, he felt several gazes that seemed to have turned into substance, which made him a little scared. He turned around and saw the team leader Zhang Benling with a smile on his face, but staring at him with cold eyes.
