Chapter 225 How could it be you?
Qin Ziling sat on the side and listened quietly with a calm expression, but the anger in his heart was growing more and more intense like the fire in the middle of the hall.
Mother Cui Yun listened to the story and burst into tears.
After a long time, Cui Bohan finished telling his past stories.
The whole hall was very quiet, with only his short gasps and coughs, as if the recollection and narration just now had consumed a lot of his energy.
Qin Ziling's expression was frighteningly calm.
At this moment, Qin Ziling finally understood the past experiences of his mother and grandmother in the Cui family, and also learned about some things that happened to his grandfather after his mother left.
Cui Bohan was originally the second son of his current branch family.
He did not have much talent in cultivation. Even though he was born in a large family and had no shortage of resources for cultivation, he was only twenty-five years old when he managed to successfully condense his strength and become a strength master.
But Cui Bohan is a man with literary talent, handsome appearance, gentle temperament, and can charm a large number of women with just a smile.
Many times, a man like Cui Bohan is bound to be amorous and romantic, but he is not a romantic and romantic person, nor does he have much ambition. He has no desire to compete with his brother for power and wealth.
Once, Cui Bohan met Qin Ziling's grandmother Su Bingqian.
A young lady born into a local scholarly family, well-educated, dignified-looking.
Although Cui Bohan was not the eldest son, he was from one of the four prominent families in Qinghe County after all. At that time, Su Bingqian was still not worthy of him.
But the two fell in love at first sight, and Cui Bohan insisted on marrying Su Bingqian in a formal ceremony, and his family agreed.
Su Bingqian brought along two maids who were also pretty, well-educated and polite.
Cui Baihan himself was not a romantic figure and had no ambition. He was content with having a wife and two concubines. He spent his days accompanying his wife to travel around the mountains and rivers, reciting poems and playing the piano. He lived a very carefree life.
Not long after that, Qin Ziling's mother Cui Yun was born, and the two concubines also gave birth to a son and a daughter for Cui Bohan.
Cui Bohan felt even happier. He thought that God had treated him well and he had no regrets in his life.
But there are always unexpected events.
One day, Cui Bohan met Wen Hongfeng by chance while traveling.
As soon as Wen Hongfeng saw Cui Bohan, she was "shocked by his handsomeness" and fell deeply in love with him, and she was determined to marry him.
Wen Hongfeng is an only child and has been doted on by her parents since childhood. Her father is the elder of the Biyun Sect and her mother is the legitimate daughter of the Hou family, one of the four prestigious families in Qinghe County.
With the support of two powerful figures from two major forces and being deeply favored, it is conceivable that Wen Hongfeng can get whatever she wants in Qinghe County.
She was the only daughter and was determined to marry Cui Bohan. Her parents had no choice but to agree to her request.
This is actually nothing, at most Cui Bohan will be forced to have a woman.
But Wen Hongfeng was of low status and was unwilling to be a servant of Qin Ziling's grandmother. She insisted that Cui Bohan divorce Su Bingqian and drive away the two concubines and marry her in a formal ceremony.
Cui Bohan was not a heartless person, so he naturally refused to obey.
At the beginning, Wen Hongfeng promised him various benefits, including supporting him to become the head of the side branch family, and even giving him a portion of the bone-refining secret medicine as a dowry.
But Cui Bohan still refused to obey, even when Qin Ziling's great-grandfather came forward to put pressure on him.
Wen Hongfeng was an extremely arrogant woman. She had never failed to get what she wanted since she was a child. Seeing that Cui Bohan refused to give in, she was too lazy to negotiate any benefits with him and directly threatened him with the lives of Su Bingqian and her three wives, concubines, and children.
Cui Bohan was just a master of strength martial arts. The most powerful person in his branch family at that time was only a master of transformation martial arts. Moreover, his father did not support him and hoped that he would marry Wen Hongfeng.
Now Wen Hongfeng threatened him with the lives of his three wives and children, so he had no choice but to give in. He just begged Wen Hongfeng to let him keep Su Bingqian and the other two for the sake of his children's mother, and he would make Wen Hongfeng his principal wife.
Wen Hongfeng then reluctantly agreed.
But Wen Hongfeng has an extremely strong possessive desire, which can even be said to be twisted and perverted.
After she got married, she soon began to make things difficult for Su Bingqian and torture her in every way.
Su Bingqian soon died of depression because of this.
She also forced the two concubines to leave the Cui family with their two children.
Although Cui Baihan was promoted to the position of the head of the side branch family because of her, in fact, the entire family acted according to her mood.
But Wen Hongfeng was still not satisfied, and felt unhappy with Cui Jun no matter how she looked at him.
Cui Bohan was worried that she would attack Cui Yun. It happened that Cui Yun met Qin Ziling's father while out and they fell in love at first sight. Cui Bohan took the opportunity to marry her off to another place.
Wen Hongfeng understood Cui Bohan's thoughts, and felt even more upset. She thought he was plotting against her, so she forced him to swear that he would never see his daughter again or secretly give her anything, thus completely severing the father-daughter relationship.
In order to make Wen Hongfeng give up, Cui Bohan had no choice but to swear an oath.
“In fact, in the first few years after the young lady got married, the master was worried that the young lady would suffer, so he asked someone to secretly send a lot of money and property to her, but unfortunately, they were all intercepted.
More than ten years ago, the young lady came to Cui's house to ask to see the master. The master actually didn't know about it, and I was forced to tell the young lady that the master would not see you. "Afu's old voice broke the brief silence.
Hearing what Ah Fu said, Cui Yun couldn't help but sob softly.
More than ten years ago, her husband was seriously ill and she had no other choice but to come to Qinghe County to ask her father for help. However, Cui Bohan refused to see her, and her husband passed away shortly thereafter.
Cui Yun still holds a grudge about this incident. It was only now that she realized that after she got married, Cui Bohan had not forgotten her, but had secretly sent her a lot of valuables, which never reached her.
That year, it wasn't that he didn't want to see her, but he didn't even know she had been there.
"More than ten years ago, was it when your father was seriously ill?" Qin Ziling took out a handkerchief and gently wiped away Cui Yun's tears, and asked.
Cui Yun nodded.
"Okay!" Qin Ziling nodded and looked up at Wen Hongfeng.
The eyes are calm.
But Wen Hongfeng's hair stood up all over her body and she felt as if she had fallen into an ice kiln.
"You, what are you going to do?" Wen Hongfeng curled up in the corner and asked in a trembling voice.
"What? Do you know what it means that my mother came to see my grandfather more than ten years ago and was not seen ?" Qin Ziling asked coldly.
As he spoke, a long whip appeared in his hand.
Then Qin Ziling raised his hand, and the long whip phantom lashed towards Wen Hongfeng.
Wen Hongfeng was beaten with one whip after another, rolling on the ground and wailing, which made everyone feel horrified.
Cui Bohan slowly closed his eyes, without any mercy, only relief and relief.
Because of her, his beloved wife suffered humiliation and died early due to depression, he was separated from his children for many years, and he became obsessed with cultivation...
Cui Yun turned his head away.
"Stop!" At this moment, a majestic shout came from outside the hall.
Then a man with short stature, extremely strong arms and legs, broad shoulders, rough but well-defined skin on his face, and half-white hair appeared at the entrance of the courtyard.
This man was none other than Cui Shanhe.
Speaking of which, it has been more than a year since Qin Ziling and Cui Shanhe parted from the Dragon Vein Land.
Cui Shanhe not only looked older than before due to taking the "Blood Burning Secret Pill", but his aura also became more powerful. The surging of his energy and blood gave people the feeling of being pressed down by a huge mountain. It was obvious that he had already entered the middle stage of Bone Refining.
Cui Shanhe is only 34 years old this year, in the prime of his life. Moreover, with his status and talent, the foundation he laid back then was very solid.
In the middle stage of bone refining, he actually had the strength to compete with a great martial artist like Long Xiaotian who was in the late stage of bone refining.
"Master, Master, please save me, please save me!" Wen Hongfeng cried out to the sky as if she had seen a savior, and crawled out of the hall using her hands and feet.
However, Qin Ziling's powerful whip swept her up into the air, and then let go. Wen Hongfeng fell heavily next to Cui Kunye with a "bang".
"You are so bold!" Cui Shanhe's face suddenly darkened, his eyes flashed with sharpness, and the energy and blood in his body instantly burst out like a mountain torrent, causing the air around him to flow rapidly.
"Clang!" The guards following Cui Shanhe drew their swords, took a big step forward, and pointed the blades at Qin Ziling.
There are not many guards, only six in number, but all of them have the cultivation level of Hua Jin.
The powerful force surged, the blade light flickered, and a blood-red color was reflected in the setting sun.
"Brother Cui, I haven't seen you for more than a year. Is this how you treat your old friend?" Qin Ziling turned slowly and looked at Cui Shanhe calmly.
"Brother Qin, how could it be you?" Although Cui Shanhe did not recognize Qin Ziling's young face, when Qin Ziling opened his mouth and saw his figure, Cui Shanhe immediately recognized Qin Ziling and exclaimed in surprise.
"Yeah, I didn't expect that you and I are cousins!" Qin Ziling said.
Cui Shanhe looked at Qin Ziling, then looked at the scene in the hall, his mouth open, not knowing how to start talking. His expression was extremely complicated, as if he was constipated.
Everyone inside and outside the hall was dumbfounded.
Cui Yun turned his head, looking surprised and surprised.
Cui Bohan suddenly opened his eyes, and besides shock he felt more joy.
Elder Wen of the Biyun Sect and the Hou family, these two forces are ultimately too powerful.
If the Cui family stood idly by and did not help either side, Cui Bohan would still be worried about Qin Ziling being left alone.
But now it seems that his grandson had actually known Cui Shanhe for more than a year, and the two of them were brothers, so it was obvious that they had a special relationship.
"Greetings, head of the family." After a long while, Cui Bohan broke the silence first, and tried to stand up tremblingly.
"Uncle is not in good health, so there's no need to be so polite. There's no need to be so polite." Cui Shanhe finally came to his senses and hurried forward to say.
"Alas, I'm getting old, and my body is becoming less and less useful. I probably won't be able to survive this New Year." Cui Bohan sighed, and his raised buttocks fell back into position.
