Chapter 1783 Cao Ke
Two hours later, Li Cong's comprehension has reached a stage. At this moment, Li Cong feels refreshed. Now he can comprehend the three elements of wind, water, and fire. He said, mother, there are only three elements, and I still want to be a magician of the whole series. If the president of the magic guild heard this, Li Cong would be killed immediately. The Department of Magic is already a huge gift from the heavens. According to hundreds of thousands of years of historical records, there is only one person who can have three Departments of Magic. There are still two Departments that are very powerful, and the other Department is just a tasteless one. It has never appeared before, Li Cong did it all at once.
Li Cong stretched his body after doing it. This magician is indeed a good thing. He was not tired at all after squatting here for such a long time. He felt very comfortable all over his body. He used to be a magician. Meditation has so many benefits to your body. If you don't need to deal with the things in front of you, you may continue to meditate. It will grow very quickly in all aspects of your body. It was the first time that Li Cong tried to make himself so powerful through his own efforts. In the past, it was either brain transformation or body transformation. The same as now, but there is no such thing as this kind of strength. It is the most reliable, and what others give will never be as good as what he made. Li Cong secretly made up his mind when he thought of this. In the future, he must rely on his own ability to make himself the master of this universe, even if he cannot dominate the entire universe. But as long as you have the ability, you must expand your territory without limit.
Li Cong looked at this guy named Cao Ke who had died a lot. This Cao family is considered a big family, but if he hadn’t come here by himself today, not many people would know that your kid died, but It's all right now, you don't have to worry, I will help you complete the things you haven't done in this life. I can't let you take the false name for nothing. Although this Cao Ke looks malnourished, his height and shape are very similar to Li Cong. After bowing to the corpse, the teleportation array was tightened. This kid is considered to have destroyed the corpse, and this guy will be buried properly on the RTY planet.
Li Cong looked at the beautiful woman next to him. Although he has now become the son of this beautiful woman, he is about the same age as this woman psychologically. How could she be her own mother, but I have always been pitiful to the weak, so Li Cong, the beautiful woman in front of me, will treat her well. Li Cong has already seen the memory of that boy just now, and these In the past few years, except for my mother who asked me, no one has had any friendship with me. It can be said that this young man's childhood was miserable, but the days to come are destined not to be miserable. Just when Li Cong was thinking about things, the house The oil lamp in the room went out. The family is so poor that they don't even have any lamp oil. In fact, it's not because the owner of the place cheated on it. The lamp oil is not a good thing. The main reason is that the house is too cold. It's the cold winter months. The weather, there is nothing in the house to keep warm. The only thing that can radiate heat is the oil lamp, so it is always on no matter it is day or night, so it is doomed that the lamp oil is not enough, and it can't support it at this moment.
Originally, Li Cong wanted to light it, but suddenly thought that he could already comprehend some low-level magic. The sign of becoming a fire magician is that he can use fireball skillfully. Fireball is the simplest magic in the fire system.
If this thing can be manufactured, it can prove that you are a fire magician. Li Cong silently recited the fireball spell in his heart. In fact, if he is proficient in the future, he will not need any spells at all, and he can directly cast fireball. Yes, after Li Cong finished reading, the fire elements in the room began to gather towards Li Cong's right hand. Li Cong also felt that the temperature in the room was rising, and he really couldn't believe that there was a fireball about ten centimeters in diameter in Li Cong's hand at this moment. The temperature in the whole room also rises very quickly. The direct use of the power of nature is different from the man-made flame. Looking at the brightness and temperature, we know that the man-made flame must not meet such standards. , the fireball technique does not consume a lot of mana. Li Cong happily fixed the fireball in the air. This is also the skill of a fire magician. The fireball can go wherever it wants within the range of the fireball, so some magicians will create several fireballs by their side when they are driving at night, and follow them to illuminate the road. The lifespan of this fireball It is also directly proportional to the ability of the person who made the fireball. If a good person makes it, it can even take a few days. Of course, it is just a thought to make him disappear, but if it is made by a beginner It will take a few minutes at most. Seeing what Li Cong made, it is naturally not something that ordinary people can make. Li Cong certainly doesn't know if his fireball technique is good, and he thought it was like this. If magicians above level 5 are here, they will know how powerful this fireball technique is. This fireball technique also has levels. Generally, junior magicians, that is, magicians of level 1 to 3, create first-level fireball techniques. , the intermediate magicians of the fourth to sixth levels create the intermediate fireball technique, and the magicians above the seventh level create the advanced fireball technique. The one made by Li Cong is even worse than the advanced fireball technique Yes, there is no way, who told people's spiritual power to be golden? The raw materials are different, so the power is naturally different.
Time has passed for a long time, and the beautiful woman has recovered now. Li Cong took advantage of the dazzled time and hurriedly lay down on the bed, although he tried his best to pretend to be weak , but it seems that the complexion is much better. The first thing the beautiful woman wakes up is that the temperature in the room is too high. In the past, the temperature in the room was similar to the temperature outside. It's not bad if it's zero degrees, but it's like spring here today, why did I pass out when I came back, and the medicine, suddenly the beautiful woman thought of the medicine, to see if the medicine is still there. I breathed a sigh of relief, maybe it was because I was so tired these days, I fell asleep when I got home, if this delays my son's illness, what would happen, I have never had it in my life If you don't think about anything else, the master just doesn't think about it, even if there is no wife. The master would not think of himself here, let alone that he still has such a son.
"Ke'er. You woke up. It's all because of your mother. I was too tired to come back today for my mother, so I fell asleep like that. I'll decoct medicine for you, and you'll be fine soon." The beautiful woman Seeing his son waking up, the man said quickly, as if the medicine was an elixir, as long as he took this medicine, his son would be cured, indeed. No matter what kind of treatment she has received in the past few years, this woman has always been very persistent, just for one thing, to get money for her son's medical treatment.
"No, no need, I feel in good health today, as long as I take a good rest. It seems that I don't need to take medicine. Besides, it is said in the book that the medicine is three-point poisonous. If I keep taking that thing Even people who are not sick will become very weak. I have been eating these things for the past few years. Why don’t I stop it for a while. See if there may be better results. Anyway, taking medicine This way, there can't be anything worse than this." Li Cong didn't know what was going on in the voice he said, it was Tike's tricks, and the beautiful woman was dumbfounded when she heard Li Cong's words. Although my son is very well-behaved in normal times, he can't speak so well because of the hurt in his heart. Most of the time, my son doesn’t talk too much, because he may cough if he talks too much, and he may even cough up blood when he talks too much. Today, he didn’t have any adverse reactions at all after talking so much. Looking at his son's face, there seems to be blood, it is not what it used to be, is it because I accompany the Buddha every day, is the Buddha manifested? How could such a thing happen? The beautiful woman herself couldn't believe that such a thing would happen, and she wept with joy.
"Okay, okay, as long as it's what you say, mother will follow you, but it's freezing cold, even if you are in good health, you can't walk around." The beautiful woman said after wiping away her tears. In fact, what she wants to say is that the weather is not the most important thing, the most important thing is people. In this big courtyard, even ordinary servants will not look at their mother and daughter highly. Waiting for them, master? Mrs? Go ahead and dream, it is absolutely impossible now.
Just when Li Cong was about to say a few words to this woman, there were hurried footsteps outside. Could it be that something happened? But even if something happened in this family, it shouldn't be able to reach the heads of his two mothers. Li Cong felt that this person should be coming towards them, and the speed is not slow, but he is still a normal person According to the standard, it should be a servant in the mansion. Sure enough, when the door opened, it was a child dressed as a servant. Aunt Li, I brought tea to the master just now, it seems that he is going to be engaged to the third brother, and that is the eldest lady of Cui Fucheng's family." The boy said out of breath.
Soon Li Cong had information about this kid in his mind. This kid is also a slave of this family. Both Lao Tzu and mother are slaves of this house. He was born as a slave. There is no way It’s changed, for Li Cong, no, it should be called Cao Ke, mother and son, it’s okay, he is the only one in this mansion who is okay with their mother and son, other people don’t want to talk to mother and son at all , I was afraid of offending my wife, and the reason why this kid is willing to associate with Cao Ke is because when other slaves bullied him when he was a child, Cao Ke stood up and said a fair word. At that time, Cao Ke was not as depressed as he is now. He is in good health, why is he the young master of this mansion, speaking is still very useful.
"What? The eldest lady of Cui Fucheng's family?" Li Cong and this beautiful woman's brains started to work. Li Cong's own thought was what kind of official position is this Fucheng? When I was on the RTY planet, I knew that there was a county magistrate, and I had been a magistrate for a while. The role of this magistrate is probably similar to that of the county magistrate. It is said that he can be regarded as the second in command of the county. , what's wrong with the eldest lady in the family, isn't it very good, no matter how helpless the expression on the face of the beautiful woman following the boy is, is there something wrong with this lady?
Indeed, there was something wrong with this young lady, everyone in Cui Fucheng's family knew about it. This is definitely the most beautiful girl in Jiangning City. Unfortunately, there is a terrible problem, that is, Cui Fucheng seems to have offended people in the Governor's Mansion recently, let alone people in the officialdom. Even the common people know that Cui Fucheng must be a rabbit whose tail can't grow any longer, and has been jumping up his head in a few days, so he must be dealt with. To marry such a person at this time, isn't it pushing yourself into the fire pit? Li Cong immediately knew that the master in this family was not a good thing anymore, and that his own son would be better off if he didn't ask about it than to be pushed into the pit of fire. Since you are so willing, let's have fun with you.
"This...how good is this, who doesn't know about the affairs of Cui Fucheng's family, he offended the young master in the governor's mansion, that young master is said to be a magic apprentice, it's amazing." Beautiful woman Said in fear, magic apprentices are an unattainable profession for ordinary people like them. Who knows that her son is now a person who cannot be compared with tens of thousands of magic apprentices. Even the president of the magic guild in the capital will definitely rush to accept Li Cong as an apprentice if he sees it.
"Yeah, I've heard that too. They all said that Cui Fucheng seems to have a few days left. The son in the governor's mansion has already started to collect his evidence. There are dozens of counties under the governor. Yes, it is very simple for the young master in the governor's mansion to deal with a mansion. Aunt Li, it's better to plan this matter early. I still have errands over there, so I can't come out for too long. Let me first I'm going back." The boy looked at the mother and daughter in the room and said, it was very risky for him to run out to deliver this news to their mother and son. If the people on Madam's side knew about this, it would be strange not to beat this kid to death. Madam wished to kill this kid, and Madam also brought up this matter.
Originally, Master Cao also felt that this matter was very difficult. The son from his concubine and the young lady from Cui Fucheng's family were not very compatible. He had no choice but to ask his wife for this marriage. I didn't know that Cui Fucheng's family would have such a thing. I really feel that my wife has done a good thing. My current official position is Jiangning Weaving. I am mainly responsible for purchasing the furs of some merchants who enter and leave the Warcraft Mountains and then giving them to the princes and nobles in the capital. There is another identity that these people don't know, that is, I am actually the emperor's spy here, this Warcraft mountain range is the most important place on the road, the emperor will never feel at ease if there is no credible person watching Yes, Mr. Cao's father is the emperor's companion. If there is no such relationship, it is impossible for Mr. Cao to have worked in this position for so many years. On the surface, he is a fifth-rank official, but he is not in the governor's mansion. If you dare to be negligent, it would not be a big deal to find a lady from Fucheng's family, but now you have pushed your own son into the mouth of the storm.
Mr. Cao's name is Cao Zheng, and he is already in his forties this year. It's not that he doesn't know about Cao Ke, his son, but he has always seldom interfered with family affairs. Now this society pays attention to the distinction between concubine and concubine. Yes, the status of this bastard is generally very embarrassing. The good ones can be similar to the stewards of the family. It is very good, and it is impossible to have other ideas. In the past, the old man would take care of these grandchildren when he was alive, but now the wife is in charge of the house, and many things are difficult to talk about. Otherwise, spread the word that I am an old man who takes care of these trivial matters at home, and it is all my own fault. Cui Fucheng sent news about this matter today, and I want to give it to the two children. Given that, Cui Fucheng is probably thinking of using his influence to make the Governor's Mansion be more honest.
Cao Zheng looked at the post on the table sent by Fucheng's house, it was really unheard of, the family over there belonged to a concubine, and his side was a concubine, and the girls over there were known in the whole Jiangning city, even if Even in the south of the entire empire, it is also very famous. It seems that the young man in the governor's mansion had such a trouble with Cui Fucheng's family because of this girl. This Cui Fucheng can handle things, but he can't do this. Pulling myself together, people in the officialdom will act according to color. Although the Cao family is not as good as when the old man was alive these years, everyone can still see that there are thirty-two weavings in the entire Northern Empire. But every year, except for Cao Zheng who is eligible to go to the capital on the Longevity Day, other weaving companies will not find a chance for three to two years. The current emperor is already seventy years old, and he treats Cao Zheng as if he is his own nephew. , This is not a secret in the entire empire. If Cao Zheng is willing to say a few words about this matter, it is estimated that the Governor's Mansion will definitely calm down. At least Cui Fucheng's mother-in-law would not die, even if Cao Zheng didn't speak. When they saw that Cao Zhenglai was involved, they would pay more attention, and they would definitely not be so heartless in doing things.
"Master, this Cui Fucheng is really going backwards as he lives, and he has plotted against the master." At this time, a person who looked like an aide came out from the side. He is an old man in the village, and he was once a talented scholar in the capital, and he was born as a Jinshi. Later, because he offended a magician, this was a great thing. In the end, Cao Zheng saw that this kid was talented, and he paid the boss's price to get this guy to Jiangning, but he can't stand out in this life. , Don't talk about them, even if the real sons and grandsons of the dragon really offend the magician. That's not a joke, magicians are too precious, any one of them is very precious.
"Well, if it's just the Governor's Mansion, I can say something. It's okay to let that brat take advantage of it, and marry a good wife. The Governor's Mansion will not give the old man a face, but that The young master in the Governor's Mansion is a magic apprentice, and his master is not those old magic apprentices, but a real magician, a third-level magician." Cao Zheng said that magic apprentices usually find a master Yes, but those magicians are usually very busy doing things by themselves. Where is the time to teach students, unless they meet someone with very good aptitude, they will teach them in person, and the rest will be taught by a slightly older magic apprentice. I don’t need to teach them every day. taught.
Hearing Cao Zheng's words, Chen Chang was startled. This third-level magician is an extraordinary person. Regardless of whether a third-level magician is a junior magician, he would not be very conspicuous in the imperial capital. After all, there are more than a thousand magicians in the entire empire, at least five hundred are in the capital, but in Jiangning, there is not even a single magician, let alone a third-level magician. The Governor's Mansion has been acting recklessly recently Most of them are due to this reason. The higher-ups also know about the things here, but they are not very willing to take care of it because a magician is involved. Of course, it is not that people in the capital are offline. What they are dealing with is someone like Cao Zheng, and the imperial capital will inevitably have something to say, but local officials like Cui Fucheng, especially those who have no background in the capital, they don't have any scruples at all, let alone the government. Well, even the city lord will definitely not pay attention to it. The Magic Guild is not easy to mess with.
"If this is the case, the matter of the Cui family should be returned sooner. Why did your lord agree to it?" Chen Chang asked a little puzzled, Cao Zheng is considered a number one figure in the entire empire , although his title is not very high, but some high-ranking nobles in the empire dare not put on airs when they see Cao Zheng. In front of special people like magicians, it is not enough to look at, even if it is the royal family, when did those magicians really see it? A record was deleted in the history of the empire. Thousands of years ago, a prince of the empire died There was a conflict with a seventh-level magician, and in the end he accidentally killed the magician. This can be regarded as a pain in the hornet's nest. After losing more than one-third of the people, they were killed by two tenth-level fighters. Since then, the royal family has frightened the order, and absolutely will not have any disputes with the magician. It's getting worse and worse. Although they survive in this society, they don't follow the secular laws. Even if they commit crimes, the Magic Guild will deal with them. The empire has no right to deal with them. Without the detached status of a magician, everyone is arrogant. A third-level magician really looks down on people like Cao Zheng.
"Hehe, why don't I know about this matter? It's just that someone told me to do this for the Cui family's affairs. I owed a favor to that side in the early years. I hope the Governor's Mansion can see that I can let Cui The family left a bloodline." Cao Zheng's face was also a little unnatural, at his position, it was not easy for him to say that he owed others a favor, and Cao Zheng was a good official all his life. , not only for the emperor's face, but also for his own creed, the only one I can't help. Maybe it's his own concubine. In fact, since he married the current wife, he knew that his concubine's sons and daughters would not be able to survive. Seeing my child being framed, I can only ignore it, this kind of feeling is not good, it is not true, one of my concubine sons and concubine daughters has passed away, and this is the only one left The concubine, in fact, Cao Zheng also hopes to let him live. Marrying the young lady of the Cui family seems to be a dead move, but who knows if it will become a good move in the future, maybe the Cui family will become prosperous in the future. . After all, the current Cui Fucheng can be regarded as a big family in the south, but they don't belong to the direct branch.
Hearing that even Cao Zheng had mentioned the above, Chen Chang knew that some things were beyond his ability to ask. Sometimes he had to understand the thoughts of the higher-ups when he was serving as a staff member, and sometimes he liked to ask himself a question to talk about it. I will go on, but more often than not, it is better not to talk. I originally wanted to come over and analyze it with the master. It seems that there is no need for it now. Just when Chen Chang was about to resign, the wife came over with the eldest son, the second son and the fourth son. They are usually a family. As for the third son Cao Ke, besides the There are so many points. No one in this mansion has ever mentioned that guy, that person seems to have been forgotten in the mansion, not many people will remember it.
"I've seen the master." Under the leadership of the mother, the three brothers all greeted Cao Zheng. The two elder brothers were already 22, and the other was also 21. The younger one was only seven years old, although his wife was already born. Had four children. But this face hasn't changed much, it's all because of the use of Dongzhu to nourish the gods every year, just for this item alone, the annual expenses are an astronomical figure, but the lady herself is also well-earned, so she can't control it So many, I tested the knowledge of the two sons, and asked about the life of the youngest son. This seems to be something that must be done every day. Even if it's over, I didn't expect Cao Zheng to suddenly think of that kid today, the third young master, who has a son himself, thinking of Cao Zheng's face looking at his wife, it's not very good. When the family came to Cao's house, how much face was given, but it was also doomed that he could only have these children in front of him.
"Tell the third young master to come here." Cao Zheng didn't speak, and the atmosphere in the room was a bit wrong, and the lady was also a little puzzled. Before this time, the family would go to the back for dinner. What's wrong with the master now? When the old man said this, the madam's eyes became sharp immediately. No one mentioned that little beast for nearly ten years. Why did it sound again now? However, years of family education also made this madam still He is very self-cultivated and will not do such crazy things in front of his sons. The faces of the three young masters are also a little puzzled, what happened to their father, although they all know that they have a brother, But that guy, when did the people in the family think that guy was a young master, and when did they think he was his brother? It seemed that the last time I saw that guy was when he fell into the water a few years ago. He just stayed in his own room and couldn't come out. How could his father mention him today.
"Master, what is this?" The place where Cao Ke lives is far away, and the housekeeper just ran over for a short time. During this time, the wife finally couldn't help it, and asked, the three sons also They all pricked up their ears. Although they knew that the mother was in charge of this family, and the grandfather’s family was also very prominent, but these years have grown up, and they also know that the father’s side is not so simple. Sometimes the father may be more It's amazing, especially the relationship with the emperor. The grandfather's side is about to arrive soon. The uncles and mothers were not born by the same mother. When the uncles become princes, they want to go to the imperial capital every year. After a while, it will not be so easy. More often than not, their future is still on their father's side. Although there are many resources on the palace side, there are indeed many people who are attached to the palace. Although the resources on the father's side Not many, but they can actually use knives on the heads of their brothers.
"It's just that I found a good wife for the third child. Miss Cui, you, the aunt, should prepare early. Go over and have a look. There is already a scare post over there. Our family will go to Cui's residence together tomorrow." Be a guest." Cao Zheng said angrily, originally these guys were worried about what happened to the third child, but now they are all happy after hearing this. It seems that my father is really calculating. Everyone knows that the Cui family is rich. This rule is that the married daughter cannot be held accountable for the Cui family's affairs. After all, there is nothing else to do with the water spilled by the married daughter. Could it be that the father has taken a fancy to the Cui family's dowry? The Cui family only has one prostitute daughter, so this dowry is absolutely indispensable.
They all know the reputation of Miss Cui's family. The third child, a little kid, doesn't know what is so attractive about this beauty, but the eldest and second child are not young, and they haven't married yet, but the house There are a lot of girls and women here. The matter between men and women is also very well understood. Although the Cao family and the Cui family cannot be regarded as family friends, they have been together for a few times. Naturally, they have met Miss Cui's family. Such a wonderful person It would be cheaper for the sick youngest child, and everyone felt a little uncomfortable, but they would not have the guts to ask them to marry this young lady of the Cui family. The Governor's Mansion is not a joke. If I want to develop in the future, it is necessary to have a father-in-law to take care of me. The Cui family's extermination is in front of me. There is nothing to say at all. I don't want to find someone like this Father-in-law's. They even thought that maybe they would be implicated in their dinner together tomorrow.
"Oh, speaking of it, it's really good. All the concubines in our family can marry the favorite of the Cui family. This Miss Cui's reputation is very good, and she looks good. It doesn't matter what she looks like. The concubine just needs to prepare to hire her directly, and there are also cases in our mansion." The lady immediately became happy when she heard this, such a thing is simply wished for, as long as this kid is married, she will tell him to get out immediately. Go to Zhizao Mansion, this kid is going to die, and this new wife can't bear it anymore. Once this kid dies, the Cui family will be gone, and the dowry will be his own. It's all there, thinking of this, the lady's face is full of joy, and the money for the dowry is also saved.
These two young masters naturally didn't think about these things. The appearance of Miss Cui's family began to wander in the minds of these two guys at this moment. This beautiful woman must be obtained by herself. It's in my own home, the third child is probably unlucky, it's okay for my elder brother to help this kid take care of it, thinking of this, the two brothers actually thought of going together, the two brothers usually play with women They are all together, and they have a tacit understanding. You can tell what's going on just by looking at each other's eyes. If it weren't for the presence of father and mother, these two guys would probably start planning here. If the Cui family was still there, they would naturally not be able to do that. After all, they are not vegetarians, but now that the Cui family is about to collapse, these things have been done. Could it be that the distant relatives of the Cui family will come to weave Can't you come to the house to find something? That was absolutely impossible, and they didn't have the courage.
After half an hour, Li Cong followed Xiaodai to the master's study. The scene at the moment seemed to be a trial in three halls. Everyone in the room had a seat, except Li Cong who was standing. It was sitting. Li Cong saw this scene after entering the door. Although he didn't know what happened, he also knew that these people had no good intentions. Li Cong glanced at the master sitting in the main seat, presumably this guy was his own " "Father", it's okay to be an old man, his son will be calculated to death by his wife, this guy still looks like he doesn't know anything, even if it is another powerful family, the fate of this bastard Not very good, but it is estimated that there is no one in ten like Cao Ke.
While Cao Ke was looking at the room, everyone in the room was also looking at this kid. One by one, they saw that Cao Ke seemed to be different from before. This kid seemed to be more energetic, didn't he just say Is the kid going to die? Why doesn't he look like he's going to die right now? Madam and the young masters feel something is wrong. Although they haven't seen this kid in the past few years, they have always attracted people's attention. Why? It seems to be getting stronger.
"Well, you've become a young man too. Tomorrow our whole family is going to Cui Fucheng's house as a guest, and we will ask the housekeeper to take you to make some new clothes. Remember tomorrow, don't talk too much." Cao Zheng saw himself He was also a little satisfied when he met his son, but after seeing the strange look in his son's eyes, he understood that the person in front of him didn't regard himself as his father. Down to now, I basically don't care about it.
"Yes, Father." Li Cong said, there was no submissiveness in that look at all, it looked very natural, this kid was not like this in the past, not to mention talking to the master, but the voice of others was loud At one point, this kid is also extremely nervous, what happened to this today, everyone in the room is a little strange, as if the feeling of this kid suddenly changed for him.
"Third brother seems to be getting better recently. I need to go out and walk around more in the future. How can I stay in my room all the time." The old man frowned on the shoulder of the third child, but he didn't say anything. The boss is a third-level fighter, but the third child is nothing. The third child has suffered a lot, but the boss still remembers Tomorrow's matter, we still have a sense of measure. The old man looked at Li Cong. If this kid feels unwell, he still needs to be rescued. Who knows that there is nothing uncomfortable on the expression on Li Cong's face.
"Thank you big brother for your concern, little brother will remember." Li Cong said with a smile, just coming and not being indecent, we have to give you some. (To be continued.
