Volume 2 Hidden Dragon Has Been Sleeping, A Roar Moves Thousands of Mountains
The sky was gloomy, with goose feathers flying in the sky, and biting cold wind blowing from the northwest. The bare trees around looked like bald old men, unable to withstand the northwest wind. Under the cold wind,
swaying in it.
The snow is getting heavier and heavier.
Under the bridge, the water in the river also turned into ice. Looking up, I saw that the mountains in the distance and the pavilions inside the mountains were also covered with a thick layer of snow.
On the west street, there are several luxuriously built pavilions in a manor. There is a flagpole erected on one of the pavilions. Looking up along the pole, there is a flag, black in color, flying alone in the wind.
Underneath, on the door plaque, there are four large gilded characters written with flying dragons and phoenixes, which are "Lu Family Mansion".
Above the lobby, as far as the eye can see, there is a conference table. On the seats on both sides are not only some senior officials of the Lu family, but also the head of the family, Lu Bumu, is sitting here.
At the moment, they are having a family meeting, and the atmosphere seems a bit depressed and solemn. The content discussed this time is exactly about the "avoiding water beads" matter. This matter has a great impact on their Lu family.
No matter how big or small it is, although it cannot shake the foundation, it has also caused a lot of trouble.
After all, the Lu family has occupied the title of the No. 1 family for a long time, and it can be said that every move has attracted the minds of many people. Rumors are flying all over the sky this time, and anyone with a discerning eye knows that this is a conspiracy that only targets the Lu family, but there are many
But people still want to see the Lu family make a fool of themselves.
It's a pity that the Lu family has not seen any big storms in these years. It is simply wishful thinking to want the Lu family to fall from the altar based on this conspiracy. However, except for the initiator, many people are still waiting to see what happens. For these people
, instead of scrambling to be the first, they might as well fish in troubled waters.
Of course, there are also many people who can't hold back their thoughts and become eager to take action. However, the Lu family has a great business. For those young people who get involved, the Lu family has only three words to say, and that is "kill without mercy".
Just yesterday, they had killed twenty intruders who sneaked into the Lu family. The nineteen guys in front of them all saw that the situation was not good. In order to protect their secrets, they took poison and died one by one. Just before Lu
When the family was at a loss what to do, late at night, another intruder came unexpectedly.
Because he had learned from the past, this time it was the family leader Lu Bumu who personally took action to capture the opponent. With his cultivation at the Sword Sect level, he naturally caught the intruder effortlessly.
After being severely tortured at that time, I learned that the purpose of these people was all about "avoiding water beads".
Although Lu Bumu was a little angry about this, he also knew very well who the culprit was, but he was helpless about this matter. Because when the rumors first spread, he was immediately invited by the city lord to go over for questioning. Although
The latter slightly questioned his remarks, but did not embarrass himself much.
Just when he returned to the Lu family, he learned that some Xiaoxiao dared to sneak in and do evil while he was away.
At that time, Lu Bumu had accumulated countless anger but had nowhere to vent it. As soon as he returned home, he happened to meet the last intruder. That person was unlucky to be hit by a gun. In front of the furious Lu Bumu, he even took poison.
Any chance of suicide became delusional.
For many years, major aristocratic families have been fighting openly and secretly among themselves. Although there are no major conflicts, small frictions continue to occur. On weekdays, the relationship seems calm, but in fact, it is turbulent behind the scenes.
It's just that while there are hostile relationships, there are also good friends. As the saying goes, the enemy of an enemy is a friend. The three families of Lu, Su, and Zhao have been friends for generations, and the same is true for the three families of Mu, Lin, and Li.
It is well known throughout Huadu County that the Mu family covets the title of the first aristocratic family. The relationship between the Lu and Mu families has always been incompatible with each other. This time the Lu family was attacked by rumors, and many people
Everyone knew that it must be the Mu family, and their purpose was self-evident.
Of course, some people feel that the Mu family is not targeting the Lu family for nothing. They may have suspicions against the Lu family. However, many people still hold the idea that they would rather believe that they have it than that they have nothing, so they go deep into the Lu family's thoughts.
We need to find out.
After all, the matter is about the existence of the rare treasure "water-proof beads". They don't want to
Therefore, they missed a good opportunity, so they just wanted to seize the opportunity. However, what they never expected was that the Lu family's decision-making in the face of the crisis would be so strong, and the intruders basically left no one alive.
And this just proves how tough the Lu family's attitude towards this incident is. As the first family, their majesty will never allow anyone to violate it. The fact is that it is precisely because of the Lu family's decisive killing that
Many people no longer dare to act recklessly.
…
At this moment, the middle-aged man sitting in the front seat has no anger or authority on his face. He looks very young, but he has a head full of white hair. Although he has a face as rich as jade, he may have a frown on his face.
For this reason, the folds at the corners of the eyes are clearly visible, and the vicissitudes in the eyes seem to have seen through the world of mortals. These are all evidences left by the invasion of time.
This man's name is Lu Bumu, and he is the head of the Lu family.
Speaking of Lu Bumu's past, it makes people respect and feel sad at the same time. Thinking about how glorious he was back then, and how talented he was, he took over the position of the head of the family just after he came of age. This is unusual among all aristocratic families.
This is an unprecedented thing, and he is also the youngest sword sect master in the history of the Lu family.
Among his peers, his skills are superior to those of others, and among his peers, he is invincible with a sword. And because of his outstanding appearance and strong cultivation, Lu Bumu has become the dream lover of many rich ladies.
Since childhood, Lu Bumu began to learn various jobs under the discipline of his father Lu Sheng. Although the process was extremely painful, he benefited a lot. Gradually, he also developed a higher learning ability. Among them
Whether it is cultivation or self-cultivation, he has been greatly improved in all aspects, and is far ahead of his peers.
However, by chance, Lu Bumu met a peasant girl when he was out for training. On the way, they got to know each other and then fell in love. After falling in love, they soon entered the palace of marriage. Because they were married.
Due to the wrong household, the head of the family, Lu Sheng, was not optimistic about their marriage, but his only son liked it, so there was nothing he could do.
Although his wife Wu Qianrou is an ordinary person with an average family background, she is well-educated, sensible and considerate. Even if she is treated coldly by Lu Sheng on weekdays, she smiles at him without complaining.
Although Wu Qianrou came from an ordinary background, her appearance is stunning. Coupled with her talent, she can learn everything very quickly. Under the guidance of Lu Bumu, she is proficient in all aspects of music, chess, calligraphy and painting.
Gradually, she also gained Lu Sheng's recognition.
Although Wu Qianrou has been frail and sick for many years and has been diagnosed as infertile by famous doctors many times, despite this, the infatuated Lu Bumu has never left her.
Because he knew that Lu Bumu had taken a hen that couldn't lay eggs, he was laughed at by many people in the city, but he didn't care. But Wu Qianrou, who knew that she was infertile, repeatedly begged Lu Bumu to take a concubine.
After all, it was normal for a capable man to have three wives and four concubines. However, every time she brought up this matter, Lu Bumu would reject it without hesitation.
"Love only one person in your life" is one of Lu Bumu's self-rules as a human being. Wu Qianrou was deeply moved and extremely guilty when she saw that Lu Bumu would rather cut off the incest relationship than take a concubine.
In the end, Wu Qianrou chose to run away from home, because in her opinion, Lu Bumu and she were from two different worlds, and they just came together by mistake. Lu Bumu had his own
The road he has to take, such a handsome man cannot delay his great future because of her.
At that time, Lu Bumu, who knew that Wu Qianrou had run away from home, almost went crazy. It was at that moment that he realized how much he loved this woman, and that his life could not be separated from the former. Unfortunately, Wu Qianrou
She deliberately avoided him, even if he had great abilities, he could not win back Wu Qianrou's determination to leave.
However, maybe it was fate, or maybe the Emperor and God paid off. As the saying goes, lovers will eventually get married. Lu Bumu, who thought that their relationship would end there, was unexpectedly killed in a desperate situation and fell to the bottom of the valley.
He survived the catastrophe and was rescued by Wu Qianrou, who lived in seclusion under the valley.
This time, Wu Qianrou did not avoid Lu Bumu, as if she knew that her fate was irreversible and finally returned to Lu Bumu. And she knew that he did not marry and have children after she left. For this reason, Wu Qianrou
Rou felt very uncomfortable.
Fortunately, there is always a way out, and it turns out that Wu Qianrou is not a sterilized body, but a
With a physique that is relatively difficult to conceive, the two people's relationship warmed up again. In a union, they finally ushered in the crystallization of love that belonged to them.
This unforgettable relationship was hard-won, and both of them cherished it. Unfortunately, it didn't last long, and the wife who thought they could grow old together had a difficult childbirth. She regretted giving birth to Lu Mengzhu because she was too weak.
And died. Faced with the departure of his beloved, Lu Bumu turned his head gray overnight.
Until now, more than ten years have passed, and he has grown from a stupid young man to a powerful man. However, despite this, he has not married and had children again despite his high position. Since his wife died, his fiery heart has
My heart also moved away.
In this life, Lu Bumu has long seen through the world of mortals. He no longer cares about worldly love and love. From now on, he just wants to guard the treasure left by his late wife. And most of the time, he puts his mind on
For the sake of cultivation and managing the family, because this can numb the mood that he has been unable to let go.
Infatuated men are always admirable. Su Huaiping of the Su family has been in love with Lu Bumu for a long time, and she became an older leftover girl because of him. When she was young, she once said that she would only marry Lu Bumu for the rest of her life.
However, falling flowers are intentional, but flowing water is ruthless.
