Chapter 4 It's a good thing

Jinghu Mengfu, study room.

After practicing knife practice for a whole day, although he was excited, his true energy was exhausted and he had to rest. Meng Chuan also came to the study and started one thing he had to do every day - painting.

The paperweight is pressed against the paper, and there is also an exquisite color palette on the side, and all kinds of pigments inside are of top quality.

Meng Chuan was drawing with his heart.

Meng Chuan has loved painting since he was a child.

Maybe my mother is good at painting and teaches her son to draw. This is his favorite thing when he was young. A three or four-year-old child painted for three or four hours in a row, and even forgot about eating. He was not tired at all. He was covered in paint and was still very happy. His mother said, "My son has outstanding talent and will definitely become the best painter in the world. A painting is worth a thousand gold."

Born in the Meng family, my parents loved me, so I was carefree.

However, when I was six years old...

More than 100,000 people died in that catastrophe and his mother also died.

With the desperate protection of his parents, he fled back to Dongning Mansion. From then on, he practiced hard, but he still painted for an hour every day. When he was painting, he would forget the fatigue of his cultivation. He even felt that when he was a child, his mother guided himself to draw, and his heart was extremely quiet.

Fifteen years old.

After painting for more than ten years, he also became a number of painters. He has long been better than his. His mother is right. His talent is indeed outstanding, at least higher than his talent in practicing swordsmanship.

What's the use?

No matter how powerful a painter is, can he kill monsters?

"Dongdongdongdong." The outside of the study room knocked on the door anxiously.

"Um?"

Meng Chuan looked out in confusion, "When I draw, no one usually comes to disturb me, what's going on?"

Put down the paintbrush and open the door. My father Meng Dajiang was standing outside the door. He usually smiled, but his face was a little solemn today.

"Chuan'er, follow me to my ancestral home quickly." Meng Dajiang said.

"good."

Meng Chuan did not hesitate and immediately followed his father, "Dad, why have you been going to your ancestral home frequently in the past few days?"

"Nothing." Meng Dajiang didn't say much.

"Then I'm going to the ancestral home now, what's wrong?" Meng Chuan asked again. He, a junior, only went to the ancestral home three or five times a year.

Meng Dajiang glanced at his son and said, "It was your engagement with Yun Qingping. The Yun family and the Meng family discussed and decided to terminate the engagement."

"Resolute the engagement?" Meng Chuan was surprised, "Dad, why did you suddenly terminate the engagement?"

"You can't bear to bear?" Meng Dajiang looked at his son.

"No." Meng Chuan shook his head, "Yun Qingping and I only met once a few months ago, and we can't get along with each other. It's a good thing for me to terminate the engagement."

Meng Chuan, who is only fifteen years old this year, doesn’t know much love yet.

I feel that Yun Qingping is just a more familiar and willful little sister, that's all.

"It's good that you think about it this way. For this time, the Yun family and my Meng family have agreed to terminate the engagement." Meng Dajiang said, "When you arrive at the ancestral home, just listen and talk less."

"Yes." Meng Chuan nodded and responded.

...

The Meng family’s ancestral home covers a huge area in the west city of Dongning City, with more than 2,000 tribes living inside, and one mile along the central axis from south to north.

Of course, the foundation of the Meng family is in the countryside. Because of the threat of demon clans, people in the countryside form forts to protect themselves. Each fort has thousands of people, and it is very common for the same clan to gather in a fort. After thousands of years of reproduction, the Meng family has three large forts, which together have more than ten thousand people. In Dongning Prefecture, there are also many such large families.

The special thing about the Meng family is that there are gods and demons.

Naturally, it immediately became one of the five highest-ranking gods and demon families in Dongning Mansion.

"Elder."

"Elder."

The ancestral home was in order. Some patrol tribesmen also respectfully saluted Meng Dajiang and called "elder" when they saw Meng Dajiang.

Meng Dajiang is ranked among the top three in the Meng family and is still young. He still has a glimmer of hope to become a god and demon. He is the next patriarch designated by the family.

"Um?"

Meng Chuan followed his father into the hall where guests were welcomed.

There had been many people sitting on both sides of the hall, including the Meng family on one side and the Yun family on the other side, but the atmosphere was obviously not right. Meng Chuan could tell at a glance that most of his elders looked not good-looking.

"Brother Dajiang is here." Yun Fu'an stood up and smiled, "You'll bring the wedding letter too."

"Bring it." Meng Dajiang nodded slightly.

Yun Fu'an smiled and said, "The other elders have no objection to the termination of the engagement. Brother Dajiang, shouldn't he have no objection?"

Meng Dajiang stood there and smiled and said, "If the two families are interested, getting married is a good thing. Since they are unintentional, it is better to terminate the engagement early. This is a marriage letter."

As he said that, he took out a wedding book from his arms and handed it to Yun Fu'an with both hands.

After Yun Fuan took it, he opened it carefully, looked at the handwriting on the name and nodded slightly. It was indeed the wedding letter he had at the beginning. The handwriting of the two ancestors could not be imitated.

"Yun Fu'an, please tear off the wedding letter here." A bald and thin old man from the Meng family spoke.

"Haha, I'm worried that I'll take it back, and I'll take it out at a critical moment in the future and force Meng Chuan to marry my daughter?" Yun Fu'an smiled and said, "Don't worry, I can't do that shameless thing!"

As he said, "Tear--" Yun Fuan directly tore off the wedding letter in his hand.

"I have already tear the wedding letter, and you can see it clearly. Don't worry now." Yun Fu'an smiled and glanced at the elders of the Meng family present, "Then I won't keep more."

As he said that, he walked out, and the other Yun family members behind him followed.

When he walked to Meng Chuan, Yun Fu'an stopped and looked at Meng Chuan with a smile: "Nephew Meng, remember clearly. From now on, you and my daughter Qingping will have no relationship."

"Yes, there is no more connection." Meng Chuan replied.

Yun Fu'an nodded and led the crowd to leave.

Meng Dajiang watched Yun Fuan leave, frowned slightly, and calmly ordered: "Chuan'er, the engagement has been terminated, so you can go back first. Dad has something to do here."

"Yes." Meng Chuan glanced at the elders and left obediently.

Boom~~~

The hall gate is closed, and the hall is still bright under the candles as thick as a jaw.

"It's too much to deceive others, too much to deceive others!" The bald and thin old man smashed the crutch on the ground with anger, and the sound of the smashing was a little harsh.

"On the surface, we discussed with us, but in fact we had no choice at all. Do we have to go to marry with shame?" A dark old man sneered, "If you dare to go to the Yun family to make trouble, you will be slapped to death by the ancestor of the Yun family!"

"It is also a good thing to terminate the engagement. Is it useful to force the Yun family to marry two younger generations? It will only make the Yun family hold a grudge. Marriage is to want to help each other, but if you make enemies, there is no need. In fact, for my Meng family, this engagement is just a small matter. The third sister's injury is a major event that shakes the foundation of my Meng family!" An elegant old man looked at the fat old man at the top, "Class leader, can the third sister's injury be cured?"

The fat old man frowned and said, "In just two days, my third sister will return to Dongning. Let's talk about it then."

Meng Dajiang listened on the side, frowned.

The Meng family's pillar of the sky was shaking, and the elders of the Meng family were also worried.

The Meng family also kept the news secret, and only the elders knew it. After all, if it spread, tens of thousands of people in the family would be in panic, which would only add to the problem.

now……

Most of the senior executives of the other four gods and demon families also learned the news, but there was no external rumor. I was afraid that some blind juniors would anger the Meng family. After all, "Meng Xian Gu" is not dead yet! Even if Meng Xian Gu really dies, she is still some gods and demon friends. However, as long as you don't do too much, those gods and demon friends will not interfere.

After all, without the gods and demons, the Meng family cannot take on many heavy responsibilities. If they cannot shoulder the heavy responsibilities, they naturally cannot enjoy many powers.

Relevant responsibility and power.

In today's world, from ordinary people to gods and demons, no one can escape responsibility.

As long as a mortal reaches the state of marrow cleaning, no matter whether men or women, they must serve in the military for five years at the age of 20! Only half of them can come back alive. But people still want to reach the state of marrow cleaning, because if they are too weak, they don’t even have the value of military service. Under the rules of the court, many professions that do not serve in the military are not allowed to be engaged. They can only stay at the bottom and live the most pitiful life.

And gods and demons are the backbone of human beings. Every god and demon have been fighting and protecting all their lives. Even if they return to their hometown to rest, they still have to guard their hometowns and cities.

In this way, the gods and demons are dazzling and noble, and their family can be glorious and prosperous. If the gods and demons die, they cannot take on important tasks, so the family will naturally have to retreat from an important position.

*******

When Meng Chuan returned home, it was almost dark.

"Achuan, sit down and eat together. I heard that you and Uncle Meng went to the ancestral home. I thought you wouldn't come back for dinner today." Liu Qiuyue was sitting there drinking porridge and eating noodles. Meng Chuan was also sitting opposite him. A maid brought the bowl of porridge. Meng Chuan was drinking porridge, but she was a little distracted.

"Why didn't you say a word when you come back? What happened?" Liu Qiyue asked.

"oh."

Meng Chuan woke up and said casually, "The Yun family and my Meng family have discussed it and decided to terminate the engagement between me and Yun Qingping."

"Resolute the engagement?" Liu Qiyue's eyes lit up.

"Well, just now, the wedding letters were torn on the spot." Meng Chuan nodded.

Liu Qiyue looked at Meng Chuan carefully and asked, "Why, are you sad to terminate the engagement? You are even dazed when you drink porridge?"

"No." Meng Chuan shook his head, "Yun Qingping and I can't get along, you don't know. She is happy to terminate the engagement and I am relaxed. This is a good thing for her and me, this is a good thing, how can I be sad?"

"Then why are you in a daze?" Liu Qiyue asked.

"I think something is wrong." Meng Chuan frowned, "The engagement was made by the two ancestors himself. Even if they come to the door to terminate the engagement, the Yun family will at least send their "Three Heroes of the Yun family" together. This is the most basic respect for my Meng family. But this time, Yun Fu'an, who is ranked fifth and the most useless, comes alone. He looks down on my Meng family, and this is the first doubt."

"Secondly, in the hall, the patriarch and the elders looked ugly. But they all held back from beginning to end. When did the patriarch and the others have such a good temper?"

"Three times, Yun Fu'an is usually very pleased in front of my father and the others, and his attitude is very low. But he is much more presumptuous today. Where can he get the confidence?"

"The key is that there is always a reason behind the termination of the engagement. What exactly is the reason that has terminated the engagement set by the two ancestors?"

Meng Chuan looked at Liu Qiyue, "I guess it was either because the Yun family had a big backer! Or because of my Meng family."

Liu Qiyue was a little shocked when she heard this: "Achuan, I didn't see it. Can you think of so much?"

"It's just a little guess. Since he didn't tell me, there are naturally his reasons." Meng Chuan smiled.

"The person who has been terminated can still laugh, hurry up and eat your cake." Liu Qiuyue urged with a smile.
