Great Xuanwu Sheng

Chapter 166 Recognition

 On the broad official road.

 The speed of the carriage gradually slowed down, and a city much smaller than Yucheng appeared at the end of the line of sight.

 “It’s coming so soon.”

Chen Yue stood up on the carriage. The girl stood tall and graceful, looking at the Anyu County House in the distance, with a look of reluctance in her big eyes.

She hasn't stayed with Chen Mu for many years since Chen Mu practiced swordsmanship. When she had some free time, she wanted to talk more with Chen Mu, but when Xu Hongyu came over, she could only give in to her future sister-in-law obediently. Bit.

Although this trip from Yucheng to Anyu County was by car, the horses pulling the cart were brown-maned horses with a trace of monster blood. Even though they were pulling the carriage, they were running very fast, but it was not possible after a long time. She was still happy during the trip with her brother.

Chen Mu looked at Chen Yue's appearance, but he also chuckled. Ever since he obtained the Guangfeng Sword Technique and started practicing swordsmanship, he has always been cautious, step by step, and never relaxed. This time he brought Chen Yue to An Yu again. Along the way, I felt a little more comfortable enjoying the mountains and rivers.

 It's a pity that He Wuyou didn't appear along the way.

Although he did not let Yu Jiujiang follow him this time, he was still a little 'deliberate'. He Wuyou and Xuanji Pavilion should still be wary of Yan Jingqing, worried that he deliberately set up a trap and did not fall for it.

Although he did deliberately seduce him and wanted to let He Wuyou come out and deal with this person completely.

Since I didn’t come.

forget about it.

 Chen Mu continued to drive and soon arrived outside Anyu County House. Although he was wearing plain cloth, he was not stopped for questioning and entered the city without any hindrance.

 …

 A certain courtyard.

This is a very small yard, with some vegetables planted on one side, a water tank on the other side, and a pile of firewood covered with oil paper. At a glance, you can tell that it is an ordinary home.

In the slightly dilapidated back room, gray-haired Liu Rong was lying on the earthen bed. Her eye sockets were sunken, her limbs were thin, and her face was not very rosy. She just stared at the beams blankly.

 “Mom, take the medicine.”

A man about thirty-five or six years old came in, carefully came to the bedside with a bowl of medicine, and helped Liu Rong drink the medicine, but he couldn't take a mouthful of medicine.

When Song Qi saw this, a hint of panic suddenly appeared on his thin and numb face. He put down the medicine bowl and said, "Mom, wait a minute. I'll make you some ginseng soup. I'll be there soon..."

 Perhaps several months ago.

An old man from the county government came over and asked Liu Rong some questions. Then he gave their family some money for the first time and asked them to take good care of Liu Rong. They could even go to the county government to get some money every month. Neighbors found it a bit incredible that these murderous officials would one day help the poor.

Of course, Song Qi knew that there must be some other reason why the county government master gave the money. Even though he was a relatively filial person originally, he now took even more care of Liu Rong. But in the cold winter, Liu Rong was still ill. .

Liu Rong is already over sixty years old. In this world of poor people, she can be called a long-lived person. Elderly people usually have no illness or disaster, but once they get sick, most of them can't afford it.

 “Cough, cough cough…”

Liu Rong stretched out her withered hand and took hold of Song Qi. She wanted to say something, but she couldn't speak. Instead, she moved a little louder, causing a violent cough.

Seeing this, Song Qi didn't dare to leave, and kept saying: "Mom, don't be anxious, don't be anxious, speak slowly."

While comforting Liu Rong, he shouted outside: "Zhou'er, take some copper coins and buy some ginseng. Hurry, go quickly."

 Listen to the movement.

Two children ran in outside, a boy and a girl. The boy was about fourteen or fifteen years old, and the girl was younger, about eleven or twelve years old. The boy ran out after hearing the order, and the girl trotted to the bed. Bian: "What's wrong with grandma?"

"it's okay no problem."

Song Qi held Liu Rong's hand and said in a dry voice.

 But at this moment.

Song Zhou, who had just run out, turned back and said, "Dad, someone is here, including the official."

Song Qi's hands were trembling slightly. When he heard Song Zhou's words, he couldn't help being startled. He quickly stood up and said, "Miao'er, look at grandma, I'll go out to greet the official..."

 He just walked out of the house.

 I saw some people walking into the yard.

The first thing that caught Song Qi's attention was a middle-aged man wearing a blue official uniform, an official hat, and official boots. Behind him were several officials, including the one who came to visit him a few months ago, Song Qi. Qi knew that the man in the county government was already a senior official, but this time it was obvious that the middle-aged man in front of him had a bigger background.

What surprised Song Qi even more was that these county government officials were not walking in the middle, but walking on both sides. They did not take steady square steps, but bowed slightly. He looked like he was waiting carefully.

　　walking in front of several officials,

They are a man and a woman who look very young.

 “The common people kowtow to the master.”

Although Song Qi didn't know what was going on, just by seeing the large group of officers lining up outside the door, he knew that the officials coming back were of great importance. He had no time to distinguish too much at the moment, so he immediately knelt down to salute.

However, before he could kneel down, the young girl walking in front reached out and grabbed him.

 “You are Song Qi?”

Chen Yue looked at Song Qi and asked. On the way here, she had already learned some information from the county official. If Song Qi's mother Liu Rong was really her aunt, then Song Qi was her cousin, although it is not certain yet.

 Chen Mu glanced at Song Qi, but did not ask any questions. Instead, he sensed the situation in the house with a thought. After a slight flash of his eyes, he walked straight into the house.

Two children, Song Zhou and Song Miao, also ran out. Seeing the formation in the yard, and the official officials wearing official uniforms and majestic faces, they were a little frightened for a moment.

Chen Mu only glanced at the two children and went straight into the back room without pausing.

The first time he saw Liu Rong, he was basically sure. After all, all the information in the intelligence was consistent, and from the aura, there was obviously a sense of blood connection.

 “You…cough…cough…”

Liu Rong looked at Chen Mu who walked into the room with a puzzled expression. She wanted to ask something but coughed violently.

Chen Mu walked over and helped Liu Rong up. A wisp of Yuan Gang appeared in his palm. He patted her twice on the back, barely calming down the chaotic energy and blood in her body. At the same time, he said: "My name is Chen Mu, mother. My name is Liu Ping, and I was abducted and trafficked from Anyu County to Yujun City many years ago."

Liu Rong's coughing subsided a little. After hearing Chen Mu's statement and taking a closer look at Chen Mu's appearance, she suddenly felt a vague sense of familiarity. She said in disbelief: "You, you are Ping'er's... "

Chen Mu carefully felt Liu Rong's physical condition, and then sighed in his heart. Liu Rong had never practiced martial arts. At this age, he was infected with wind and cold, and it was already time to run out of gas. If only he hadn't been delayed by so many things. , if she comes a few days earlier, she might be able to save something, but after all, she is not Yu Jiujiang, and even if she survives this winter, she will not have long life.

at this time.

Chen Yue also ran in. After seeing Chen Mu nodded slightly to her, and then looked at Liu Rong's old and frail appearance, she suddenly remembered the last appearance of her mother Liu Ping. Her eyes suddenly turned red, and she walked to the bedside. I couldn't help crying.

This moment made Liu Rong a little confused: "Child, why are you crying... You, you and Ping'er are so similar when they were young. Could it be that you are too..."

As soon as these words came out, Chen Yue cried even harder, and she just buried her head and cried loudly.

Chen Mu gave up his position to Chen Yue, stood up, took two steps back, and said to Liu Rong: "She is my sister Chen Yue, please talk to her. In fact, I should have met you a few months ago. But I didn’t recognize it at the time.”

Chen Mu has now entered the realm of the five internal organs. His five senses are much sharper than ordinary people. He also has the ability to remember photographs. He can also recall some details from a few months ago clearly. He suddenly remembered that he was supposed to meet Liu Rong at that time. He saw it once, but he couldn't identify it at the time. At that time, he didn't have as keen a sense of perception as he does now.

 Soon.

Chen Mu patted Chen Yue on the back again, and then walked out of the house.

In the courtyard outside the house, the entire courtyard was completely silent. Whether it was the officials in the courtyard or the large group of officers outside the courtyard, each one was in a state of silence and did not dare to make a sound.

Song Qi was also too scared to speak, not knowing what was going on.

When Chen Mu and Chen Yue entered the house just now, he had already learned Chen Mu's identity from the officials next to him.

Yu County Supervisory Department Dusi!

He had no idea how big this official was. He only heard the official explain that there were few officials bigger than Chen Mu, not to mention in Anyu County, even in the entire Yu County. This was already beyond his reach. The scope of imagination is that one can even appoint or remove the county master with one sentence. What a huge person he is.

 What surprised him the most was that the other person was still so young, looking like he was in his twenties.

Chen Mu walked over slowly, showing no aura at all, but Song Qi only felt that the young man in front of him seemed to have an indescribable momentum, which made people breathless, and even the many officials next to him were nervous. .

“Everyone, please step aside and go outside. It’s none of your business.”

Chen Mu spoke calmly to the officials in the county government.

The county officials were not sure whether Liu Rong was his aunt at the time, but they still gave him money. In addition, they also sent some officers to patrol this generation overtly and covertly to prevent Liu Rong's family from getting into trouble. They did a pretty good job. Remarkable.

When many officials heard Chen Mu's words, they all breathed a sigh of relief. After hurriedly saluting Chen Mu respectfully, they carefully exited the courtyard one by one. Soon, only Song Qi and his two children Song were left in the courtyard. Zhou and Song Miao.

 At this time.

 Chen Mu finally turned his head to look at Song Qi, and said calmly: "Cousin Song, don't be nervous. I'm here just to acknowledge my relatives."

 Cousin?

This title startled Song Qi, and he almost trembled.

The young official in front of me, who is almost as big as the sky, actually said that he came to recognize his relatives?

At this time, Chen Mu walked aside and looked at Song Zhou and Song Miao, who were both a little stupid. He reached out and touched Song Miao's little head and said, "Your mother, Liu Rong, once had a sister who was my mother. Come on, you are my cousin. I have been looking for your family for a long time. The officials in Anyu County are quite sensible. After finding you, they did not let your family suffer."

 Chen Mu spoke in a very calm tone.

He had a pretty good impression of Song Qi's family, mainly because he knew from the county officials that Song Qi was usually a filial person. After taking the silver from the county, he did not squander it wantonly, but instead served Liu Rong with delicious food and drinks. .

Song Qi was stunned at this time. He finally understood why a few months ago, an official came to the door and was so polite. His family could even go to the county government to collect money. It turned out that it was in a distant county. City, there is such a line of relatives.

but.

Even though he had understood, he still looked at Chen Mu with trepidation. In this world, officials have always been more important than relatives. Although Chen Mu called him cousin, he did not dare to accept it directly.

  With Chen Mu’s status and identity, he was willing to expend effort to find his family in the remote Anyu County. This was a compliment to their family, rather than a source of confidence for him.

"Okay, let's not talk about this for now. My cousin should go to the back room with his two nephews. The old man doesn't have much time."

Chen Mu took back his hand, then sighed again and said something to Song Qi.
