Chapter 164 Hundred Ghosts Traveling in the Day(1/3)
Lu family, back mountain.
Lu Liang was wandering aimlessly. Suddenly, out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of a figure with double ponytails. She was sitting alone on a rock protruding from the ridge.
"Hey, Xiao Huan? What is she doing over there alone?"
He had some doubts in his heart.
The Lu family is a big family, with many aunts, cousins, cousins, and other siblings. Basically, everyone you meet on the road is related to each other. But Lu Liang and Lu Huan are different. They are not simple brothers and sisters.
They have a common grandfather, Lu Liang and his father, and Lu Huan's mother are siblings.
In addition, among the younger generation of the Lu family, Lu Huan, Lu Liang and Lu Gong can be said to be the three geniuses far beyond their peers. As close relatives and geniuses, the relationship between them is naturally excellent.<
/p>
Therefore, after seeing Lu Huan, Lu Liang stumbled over and decided to go over and see what this talented girl was doing hiding in the mountains alone.
However, what he didn't expect was that this turn would not only affect the mountain road at his feet, but also his future life.
……
……
"Hey, Huan'er, it's so late, what are you doing here alone?"
Lu Liang curled up and quietly touched Lu Huan's back from the mountain road, preparing to make a joke with his genius sister.
However, when he was about to reach out to cover Lu Huan's eyes from behind, his feet suddenly collapsed, and the front part of the rock platform protruding from the mountain suddenly collapsed with a "click".
Lu Huan, who was sitting there, fell directly without any struggle, and below was a cliff dozens of meters deep.
"Uh-huh——"
Lu Liang naturally fell down, but he reacted quickly and managed to hold on to the break in the rock to steady his body. Then he looked down. At the bottom of the cliff, two light brown braids were soaked in blood.
"Xiao Huan!!!"
"Huan'er!!!"
The hoarse shouting quickly attracted the rest of the Lu family, and then...
"You actually attacked Huan'er, she's your sister! I'll beat you to death!"
Lu Liang's father directly raised his big foot and pushed hard towards his son.
"I didn't!"
Lu Liang is a natural stranger. After awakening the Ming Soul Technique, he did not learn another secret skill of the Lu family - Ruyi Jin, so his hand-to-hand combat ability was very poor. Of course, he did not dare to resist now and could only defend loudly.
.
"I just looked at her sitting there and wanted to make a joke with her! I don't know why the stone collapsed! You can't blame me!"
It's a pity that because of Lu Liang's past personality and performance, in everyone's eyes, he was a child who liked to fool around, lie, and was difficult to discipline. So even though what he said this time was the truth, no one wanted to believe it.
Including his father and brother Lu Gong.
"You're still lying! I've always liked lying and misbehaving since I was a child! I don't have a son like you!!!"
"Stop fighting! I almost fell at that time, but Xiao Huan was very strange at the time. She didn't move. I didn't even touch her, and she didn't struggle when the stone collapsed..."
"You fell too? Then why don't you die! Give Xiao Huan back to us!!!"
Because Lu Huan is the strongest user of the Bright Soul Technique in the Lu family today, and because of his outstanding talent, he even received an exception from Lu Ci himself. Ruyi Jin has always been passed down only to men and not to women in the family. Whether it is status or acceptance.
The degree of attention and affection far exceeds that of Lu Liang, so everyone is extremely angry.
"I'm not lying, you can use the Bright Soul Technique to check my memory!"
After Lu Liang was beaten to a bloody pulp, someone from the Lu family who was good at the soul-clearing technique finally used a lie detector method on him.
"This... what he said is actually true?"
The person in charge of the lie detector looked shocked, "Huan'er... it's really not him who pushed her down..."
"Get out of the way, I'll do it!"
This conclusion is naturally unconvincing to everyone. Some people really don't trust Lu Liang's character, while others have darker thoughts.
As mentioned before, the Lu family strictly relies on strength to determine the status of clan members.
Today, there are four generations of the Lu family, including Lu Ci.
Lu Ci is the first generation, Lu Liang and Lu Huan are the fourth generation.
Lu Ci's status is naturally unshakable, and he has three sons and one daughter. Among these people, in terms of personal talent, his eldest son Lu Zhong is the strongest, because Lu Zhong not only awakened the innate soul-clearing skill,
Moreover, he is quite accomplished in Ruyi Jin.
Among his three younger brothers and sisters, one has no talent at all to practice Qi. Among the remaining two, one only knows Ruyi Jin and does not understand Soul Ming Technique. Although the other one has awakened the Soul Ming Technique, he has never been able to learn it.
Ruyijin.
According to this situation, the next generation leader of the Lu family must be Lu Gong. Not only himself, but most people in the Lu family think so.
However, as the fourth generation of the Lu family grew up, this situation changed subtly.
Because now the three most talented fourth-generation descendants of the Lu family, Lu Huan, Lu Liang, and Lu Gong, are all descended from the lineage of Lu Ci's second son, Lu Xiao. This has caused the originally mediocre Lu Xiao's status to suddenly rise within the family.
, can even compete with Lu Zhong in the same court, and has the trend of the west wind overwhelming the east wind.
And the most important thing is that Lu Liang and Lu Gong are just that. Although their talents in Minghun Technique are strong, their Ruyi Jin training is not very good. But Lu Huan is different. She is extremely talented in these two magic arts.
Outstanding, Ruyijin even received personal instruction from Lu Ci.
Lu Ci's love for Lu Huan can be seen by anyone with eyes.
This naturally aroused dissatisfaction and worry among Lu Zhong's people. But as long as Lu Ci was around, no one dared to really express this sentiment.
But today, they have been suppressed and finally found a breakthrough to vent their emotions, and even a shortcut to regain their lost status.
Now that Lu Huan, the greatest threat, is dead, as long as Lu Liang is held accountable, once the reputation of harming his compatriots is attached, Lu Liang and Lu Gong, the brothers whose talents are second only to Lu Huan, will never be able to do anything again.
Turned over.
Under their influence, Lu Xiao, who had gradually begun to climb on top of Lu Zhong, would naturally fall down hard.
After all, Lu Xiao's status rose not because of how strong he was, but because of the emergence of geniuses among his descendants. If all these geniuses were beaten to death with a stick, then his status would naturally be like a bubble.
Instantly broken.
Therefore, except for a small number of people from the second house who are sensible enough, most people actually hope that Lu Liang did this. The truth is not important in their eyes. Lu Huan is dead anyway. So the murderer will be confirmed
For Lu Liang, it is of greatest benefit to them.
So, they replaced another person who knew the soul arts to go up and check, and except Lu Liang and Lu Huan, they excluded Lu Gong, who was the strongest in the soul arts in the clan.
However, even if the polygraph testers changed one after another, the test results always showed that Lu Liang was telling the truth, and Lu Huan was really not pushed by him.
At this time, a smart stranger who came from a wealthy family said: "You are so stupid! Without Xiao Huan, Lu Liang himself is the strongest user of the Bright Soul Technique in the whole family. We still want to learn from him.
Tell the truth from your mouth?"
When everyone thought about it, it seemed to be the same truth, and they all agreed.
"You kid have already thought about it, haven't you! You just want to deceive us because of your high attainments in the Bright Soul Technique. There's no way!"
At this time, Lu Liang had been beaten so hard that he had no strength to speak.
At this time, the patriarch Lu Ci finally arrived at the scene.
So someone immediately came forward to report: "Master, we have checked, it seems that Xiao Huan is not Lu Liangtui..."
Before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted by another voice: "Master, there is no truth in Lu Liang's mouth. His soul-clearing technique is better than ours. You can't believe this!"
Listening to the argument in his ears and looking at the body of his favorite great-granddaughter, Lu Ci was silent for a long time and then slowly said: "Lock him up first..."
Although this treatment did not satisfy everyone, no one dared to go against Lu Ci's wishes, so they had no choice but to lock Lu Liang, who was beaten like a dead dog, into a cellar.
Then, Lu Ci summoned several of his children, as well as Lu Liang and Lu Huan's immediate family members, a total of eight people, to come to the house for discussion.
"Now that we are the only ones, let's talk about it. What do you think about Xiao Huan?"
Lu Ci's face was very gloomy. He valued his family's bloodline the most in his life. However, right under his nose, his most favored descendant, Lu Huan, died in such a strange way.
This is simply the most ridiculous thing in the world. If it had been done by an outsider, they would have jumped on Lu Ci’s face and slapped him hard several times!
The ferocious aura lingered around Lu Ci, and the atmosphere in the venue was very depressing.
In his fierce aura, no one dared to speak first. Even Lu Zhong wanted to take this opportunity to kill his second brother Lu Xiao's hope of competing with him, but he did not dare to talk nonsense in front of Lu Ci.
If Lu Ci thinks that he is excluding dissidents and harming his colleagues, even if it is his own son, he will not hold back.
As for Lu Xiao, he is even less able to speak.
Admitting Lu Liang's crime will not do him any good, but if he denies it, without evidence, wouldn't it become sophistry?
Lu Liang's father, Lu Ping, was willing to defend his son, but he did not have the talent to practice Qi. His status in the clan usually relied on the talented brothers Lu Gong and Lu Liang. Now...
…He is not sure whether he is qualified to speak at this time.
In a similar situation to him is Lu Ci's fourth son Lu Yi. Because he has no talent for practicing Qi and has no outstanding descendants, although he has a high seniority, he has never had much say.
After waiting for a while, no one answered. Lu Ci glanced around with narrow and fierce eyes, and finally turned the topic to his daughter Lu Ping.
To be continued...
