Chapter 214: #214 - A tough choice! Lu Xuan makes the decision for his father!

Qingyun County!

The Qingyun County of the past had suffered a Calamity-level eerie disaster a month ago.

Even now, the county town has not yet returned to its former prosperity and bustle.

However, the Lu Family Pharmacy in the county town has been providing free diagnosis and treatment to the people of the city since last month, without charging a single cent.

Of course, these huge expenses are not borne solely by the Lu family.

The county government and most of the county's wealthy merchants are also secretly providing the Lu family with a large amount of resources behind the scenes.

Under Lu Xuan's special arrangement, the Baidao Prefecture government has also been continuously transporting all kinds of needed food resources to Qingyun County.

It is under such practices that the reputation of Lu Family's patriarch, Lu Jiahe, has been spreading wider and wider.

Titles such as 'saving the world with medicine,' 'benevolent doctor,' and 'highly respected' have all been added to Lu Jiahe's name.

In the end, some people even wanted to build a temple and sculpt a golden statue for Lu Jiahe to show the immeasurable merit of his actions.

Of course, Lu Jiahe did not even think about this shocking idea and immediately came forward to stop this exaggerated act.

As a doctor, he was not qualified to bear the incense of building a temple and sculpting a golden statue.

Although this was the case, it did not affect the growth of the Lu family's reputation in the slightest.

The Lu family's name was no longer limited to Qingyun County, and even the neighboring Dengfeng County knew about the Lu family's deeds.

This also led to most wealthy merchants and officials from various places wanting to marry their daughters into the Lu family, attempting to establish a relationship with the Lu family.

In the Lu family's mansion hall, many people gathered, all of whom were direct descendants of the Lu family.

Lu Jiahe sat in the main seat with his eyes closed, not saying a word, but from the tightly furrowed brows on his forehead, it could be seen what he was struggling with at this moment.

The people sitting on the chairs on both sides in front of Lu Jiahe, besides his second brother Lu Jiaqing, also included his cousin's family.

To be precise, it was the family of his eldest cousin Lu Jiayong, who had already separated from the family.

And their family came to the door, naturally with a major matter, wanting to beg Lu Jiahe.

"Jiahe, with your current reputation and status in Qingyun County, as long as you speak, my unfilial son can escape this death calamity."

"He is still young and doesn't understand things. We only have this one son. You don't want your cousin to end up alone, do you?"

After Lu Jiayong said this, he gave a look to his wife and daughter behind him.

The next moment, Lu Jiayong's entire family knelt down at the same time, heavily kowtowing to Lu Jiahe.

And the sound of their kowtowing echoed in the hall.

Every sound of kneeling and kowtowing entered Lu Jiahe's ears.

These sounds caused Lu Jiahe's heart to ache, as if a large hand was constantly pinching his heart.

However, even so, Lu Jiahe remained unmoved, his closed eyes constantly shaking under his eyelids.

After a moment, a line of hot tears flowed from the corner of Lu Jiahe's eyes.

"Cousin, please go back."

"I am unable to do anything about this matter."

"I would rather die myself than exonerate Yunfei."

Lu Jiahe spat out word by word, as if using great strength.

Lu Yunfei, as his cousin's son, had been pampered and indulged since childhood, allowing him to do whatever he wanted and satisfying all his needs.

This also led to Lu Yunfei's mischievous and troublemaking character, acting recklessly.

However, if these were within a certain range of control, it would not lead to any major disaster.

However, what no one expected was that since the Lu family's reputation and status in Qingyun County rose, even some of Lu Jiahe's cousins who had separated from the family benefited from this.

Therefore, Lu Yunfei, that beast, actually intensified at this time, and finally caused an unforgivable disaster.

Five days ago, Lu Yunfei, that beast, actually followed two young masters from large families in the county town to harm two young sisters from a small wealthy merchant's family.

During the resistance, the two young sisters were accidentally killed by Lu Yunfei and the other two.

Ye Qingshan, after learning about this, was immediately furious and immediately arrested Lu Yunfei and the other two.

Except for Lu Yunfei, the other two were sentenced to be beheaded by Ye Qingshan in his rage, according to the laws of the Great Xia Dynasty.

As for why Lu Yunfei has not been sentenced for a long time, it is because his surname is Lu, the Lu of the Lu Family Pharmacy.

Therefore, Ye Qingshan also fell into a difficult situation, and could only see how the old master Lu Jiahe would choose.

For Lu Yunfei, this kind of beast who disregards human life, Ye Qingshan can't wait to get rid of him quickly!

If Lu Jiahe wanted to protect Lu Yunfei, then Ye Qingshan would also have to go against his conscience and not sentence Lu Yunfei to be beheaded.

"Cousin, Yunfei has been spoiled by you."

"I mentioned this to you a few years ago, but you always didn't take it seriously."

"A life for a life, paying debts, these are natural principles, don't you understand them?"

"Moreover, I am just a commoner. Only the county magistrate has the power to sentence Lu Yunfei in the entire Qingyun County."

"So, cousin, please go back, I am unable to do anything about this matter!"

After saying the last sentence, Lu Jiahe stood up, opened his eyes, and his pupils were full of bloodshot.

If it were other small matters, Lu Jiahe would definitely help his cousin even if he gave up his old face.

However, when it comes to this kind of beastly matter, Lu Jiahe still has his own conscience and will never do anything to cover up the murderer.

"Jiahe, our whole family is kneeling down to beg you!"

Seeing Lu Jiahe ruthlessly rejected him, Lu Jiayong quickly stood up, his face panicked, unable to believe that Lu Jiahe would reject his request.

"Jiahe, you are so cruel. Yunfei called you uncle when he was a child, and you actually want to witness Yunfei being sentenced to death."

"If Yunfei dies, I will be left without an heir."

"Jiahe, you know that I lost the ability to have children in my early years. Yunfei is my only son."

"How can you ask me to face my dead father? If that's the case, even if I die, I will die with regret!"

Faced with Lu Jiayong's various accusations, Lu Jiahe's face suddenly turned pale, and an invisible heat flowed backwards in Lu Jiahe's body.

The next moment, the corner of Lu Jiahe's mouth was slowly stained red with bright and dazzling blood, and then slowly flowed out from the corner of his mouth.

Lu Jiahe was so angry that his heart was attacked, and some of the blood flowed upwards, blurting out.

"Dad!"

"Are you okay, sit down quickly."

Lu Yun'an, who had been silent on the side, instantly became flustered when he saw this.

Like a frightened bird, he got up and wanted to go forward to help Lu Jiahe.

At this critical moment, the abnormality in Lu Jiahe's body unintentionally triggered the Gang Yuan power left by Lu Xuan in Lu Jiahe's body.

Lu Jiahe's eyes flashed with a purple light, and his whole body suddenly radiated dazzling brilliance.

A purple Gang Yuan shield exuding a terrifying aura enveloped Lu Jiahe's body.

As soon as this purple Gang Yuan shield came out, it instantly isolated Lu Jiahe from the surrounding space, and even Lu Yun'an could not get close to touch it.

Lu Jiayong's entire family was deeply frightened by this strange situation, and even forgot the next words they wanted to say.

Especially Lu Jiayong, he was still a martial artist who had practiced martial arts.

Although he was only a martial artist in the Refining Flesh realm, Lu Jiayong could still feel the terror of the purple Gang Yuan shield.

However, this scene only happened for a few breaths, and then the purple shield gradually shrank back into Lu Jiahe's body.

And under the nourishment of the purple Gang Yuan shield, the discomfort in Lu Jiahe's body suddenly disappeared, and he also felt inexplicably refreshed.

Is it the power left by Xuan'er?

After feeling the mysterious warm current in his body, Lu Jiahe finally had some comfort in his heart.

And Lu Jiayong, who was opposite Lu Jiahe, looked at Lu Jiahe with infinite envy and jealousy in his eyes.

Others don't know, but Lu Jiayong knows very well.

The real confidence of the Lu family is Lu Xuan, the most outstanding and amazing eldest son of Lu Jiahe!

The most ⊥ new ⊥ small ⊥ say ⊥ in ⊥ six ⊥ 9 ⊥⊥ book ⊥⊥ bar ⊥⊥ first ⊥ hair!

Thinking of his son's ghostly appearance, and his cousin's son, one was more outstanding than the other.

It is true that the gap between people is like the difference between heaven and earth.

"Alas, cousin, now that things have come to this, you already understand my determination."

"Don't mention this matter again!"

Lu Jiayong heard this and felt ashen, his face pale, without a trace of blood.

He knew that in the county town, Lu Jiahe was his son's only savior.

If Lu Jiahe was unwilling to intercede, then his son would also be sentenced to be beheaded like those two!

No!

I can't become the sinner of the Lu family.

Otherwise, even if I die, I will die unwillingly!

Thinking of this, Lu Jiayong seemed to have thought of another remedy, and a trace of hope appeared on his face again.

"Jiahe, if that's the case, I won't force you anymore."

"Can you give Yunfei a month, I want him to leave an heir!"

While Lu Jiayong was speaking, he directly prostrated himself at Lu Jiahe's feet, grabbing Lu Jiahe's thigh forcefully, without regard for a man's dignity.

Lu Jiahe saw his cousin's miserable appearance and could not make a decision for a while.

Lu Yunfei is now being held in the county government prison, and no one can see Lu Yunfei without the permission of County Magistrate Ye Qingshan.

However, Lu Jiayong's request was also difficult to decide in Lu Jiahe's eyes.

At this time, the hall became extremely quiet, only Lu Yunfei's biological mother was kneeling there, crying softly.

Lu Jiahe stood in place and pondered, pressing his right hand hard on the table next to him, as if supporting his body.

At this time, outside the hall door, the space twisted and deformed inexplicably.

Along with a flash of dazzling purple light, a figure suddenly appeared outside the door, as if walking out of an unknown time and space.

And the first person to discover the sudden appearance of the person outside the door was Lu Yun'an, who was at a loss on the side.

After seeing the person outside the door, Lu Yun'an's eyes widened.

The whole person seemed to be immobilized, stunned in place and unable to move.

"Da...Da...Big Brother?" Lu Yun'an's voice trembled a little, looking at the man outside the door in disbelief.

Yes, the person who appeared outside the door was Lu Yun'an's big brother, that is, the young owner of the Lu Family Pharmacy, Lu Xuan!

Lu Yun'an didn't have time to be shocked, his body swayed, and he ran wildly towards the door.

At this time, Lu Jiahe, who had not yet made a decision, suddenly noticed Lu Yun'an's abnormality, and then looked in the direction Lu Yun'an was running.

This look instantly made Lu Jiahe freeze in place as if struck by lightning, his eyes full of disbelief.

"Xuan'er!"

Lu Jiahe almost said these two words tremblingly, his voice mixed with unspeakable joy.

Lu Xuan casually looked around, and after discovering the kneeling people, his eyebrows raised slightly.

However, Lu Xuan didn't think about it carefully, but spoke to Lu Jiahe as soon as possible.

"Father!"

"It's me!"

"Good! Good! Good!"

After seeing Lu Xuan, Lu Jiahe said several good words in a row, which was the kind of joy from the bottom of his heart.

At this time, Lu Jiayong, who was holding Lu Jiahe's thigh with both hands, after seeing that it was Lu Xuan who had returned.

The look on his face suddenly became nervous and uneasy, and he quickly let go of his hands, stood up again, and dared not speak again.

"Big Brother!"

Lu Yun'an also finally came to Lu Xuan's face and shouted excitedly.

"Um!" Lu Xuan nodded slightly in response, and then without any pause, the voice changed.

"What happened?"

Lu Xuan was very familiar with these people kneeling on the ground.

Over the years, although Lu Xuan had been hiding in the Lu family to painstakingly cultivate martial arts, he still had the opportunity to meet these people.

When Lu Xuan saw Lu Jiayong, he had to respectfully call him uncle!

But now, Lu Xuan's uncle's family was kneeling on the ground.

Lu Xuan didn't need to think to know that something big must have happened.

After hearing Lu Xuan's inquiry, Lu Yun'an did not hesitate at all, and told everything at an extremely fast speed.

However, after Lu Yun'an finished speaking, the smile on Lu Xuan's face gradually solidified, and his expression became more and more calm.

Lu Yunfei, this bastard, really made a big deal, and actually did such a heinous thing.

Five or six years ago, because of Lu Yunfei's character, Lu Jiayong wanted to hand him over to Lu Xuan to teach him.

As a result, Lu Xuan would not show mercy, as long as Lu Yunfei dared to do something excessive, Lu Xuan would directly choose to take action ruthlessly.

It is useless to say more, broken bones are the best way to teach!

However, Lu Xuan's way of teaching really scared Lu Jiayong and his wife, and they took Lu Yunfei back overnight.

It's a pity that if Lu Jiayong and his wife hadn't felt sorry for him back then, Lu Xuan would have corrected the bastard character of Lu Yunfei.

Lu Xuan looked at Lu Jiayong indifferently, and said expressionlessly.

"Yes, I will give you a month, after this matter is over, you are not allowed to step into this place again!"

His own father certainly couldn't do something that violated his conscience like that, but Lu Xuan didn't mind.

Lu Xuan never explained his actions to anyone.

Moreover, after Lu Xuan helped them, their familial connection would end there. In the future, this family of theirs could no longer seek help from the Lu family.
