The Celestial Race of Destiny: Starting with Farming and Fish Raising
Chapter 18 The Chen Brothers
"Big brother, are we really going in?"
"That little brat from the Su family has raised a giant eagle spirit beast, and it's incredibly fierce."
"The three of us brothers might really get our comeuppance here..."
Night fell, the woods were dark, and there was no moon. Only a few kerosene lamps flickered in the breeze in the Su family’s new house.
Just then, three heads suddenly popped out from the wall of the Su family's new house.
They were masked and dressed in black bodysuits, blending into the darkness so well that they were almost invisible to the naked eye.
However, the three seemed to have some disagreements about tonight's operation.
The man in black on the far left was particularly resistant to entering the Su family's new residence, and kept telling the man in black in the middle to turn back.
The man in black in the middle initially ignored him, but after listening to him for a while, he also became a little irritated.
He lowered his voice and scolded, "Second brother, shut your stinking mouth right now."
"If we get found out by that little bastard from the Su family because of you, I'll beat you to a pulp."
"The Su family adulterers are keeping such a close watch on that wooden bucket; it must be something valuable."
"I think it's most likely a celestial artifact. The rumors are probably true. If the three of us brothers steal it and send it to the Moon Shadow Sect for Lin'er to use, it will definitely be a great help to her."
"Only when Lin'er succeeds in her cultivation can our Chen family prosper."
"When Lin'er becomes a cultivator and comes back to see us next time, let her kill all the people in the Su family."
"That little brat, he's got some kind of spirit beast from somewhere, and he dares to bare his teeth and threaten us at the Chen family! He doesn't know his place!"
However, no sooner had he finished speaking than the man in black on his right objected: "Brother, if you ask me, we don't need to take this risk."
"My niece Lin'er has already entered the Moon Shadow Sect, and becoming a cultivator is a foregone conclusion."
"Besides, the Su family are just ordinary people like us. What good things could they possibly have? Brother, don't let those rumors blind you."
Seeing that neither of his own brothers supported him, the man in black in the middle was furious. He glared at the man in black on his right and demanded, "Lin'er is my daughter, isn't she your niece too?"
"Third brother, don't you want our Lin'er to develop better and faster in the Moon Shadow Sect?"
"Many of the other Moon Shadow Sect disciples are descendants of cultivation families. With family support, Lin'er will definitely be at a disadvantage when competing with these people in the Moon Shadow Sect."
"As Lin'er's elders, we must stand up and find ways to support and help her."
If Su Qingyan were here, he would recognize the three men in black on the wall as the Chen brothers just by their voices.
They were all tenant farmers of the Su family, and also the culprits who seized 200 acres of fertile land from the Su family.
The immortal disciple of the Chen family who was taken in by the Moon Shadow Sect was named Chen Linlin, the youngest daughter of the eldest son of the Chen family.
After saying so much, the eldest son of the Chen family was almost dry-mouthed, but his two younger brothers did not react at all.
Seeing this, the eldest son of the Chen family became somewhat exasperated and said through gritted teeth, "Since you're unwilling to take this risk for Lin'er, then let me go in alone, and you stay here to meet me!"
After saying that, she ignored her two younger brothers' attempts to stop her and angrily climbed over the wall by herself.
Although the second and third sons of the Chen family were extremely unwilling, they were not so heartless as to let their eldest brother take this risk alone.
If they were to do that, the relationship between the three brothers would be completely broken.
The second and third sons of the Chen family were hoping to benefit more from their niece's status as a cultivator, to develop their own small family, and ideally, to have one of their children or grandchildren become a cultivator as well.
Therefore, whether from an emotional or economic perspective, neither of them will completely break with their elder brother.
With no other option, the two climbed over the high wall and followed their older brother.
The layout of the Su family's new house was not much different from that of other wealthy families. Although the three Chen brothers had not come in to scout the place, they had talked to the craftsmen from the village who came to build the house.
To this end, the eldest son of the Chen family even drew a sketch of the layout of the Su family's new residence, marking the route from the wall to the cultivation room.
The three moved very quickly.
In no time, they reached the vicinity of the fishpond and looked up to see the cultivation room made entirely of granite.
To retain spiritual energy to the greatest extent possible, the cultivation room had no windows, but the light shining through the crack in the door indicated that someone was inside.
The cultivation room was very soundproof; no one outside could hear any conversations inside until the eldest son of the Chen family pressed his ear against the door.
"Judging from the concentration of spiritual energy in the room these past few days, about 60-70% of the spiritual energy gushing from the spring can be retained."
"The overall effect is not bad."
"The only problem is that it's too cold in this room. Even the two of us cultivators are shivering while cultivating inside. For ordinary people, it would be a luxury to stay inside for two hours."
"If our Xian'er has spiritual roots, she'll probably have to cultivate outside the house in the future."
"The concentration of spiritual energy near the house is not low either, which is more than enough for a mortal who has just started cultivating."
"Moreover, with the two of us and Little Grey, our daily cultivation can't possibly consume all the spiritual energy produced by the spiritual spring. Over time, the concentration of spiritual energy around the house will also increase."
"That's true."
"Little Grey prefers to cultivate on the old camphor tree outside the house."
"After all, it doesn't like to be cold."
"..."
The eldest son of the Chen family, standing at the door, overheard Su Qingyan and his wife talking about topics related to cultivators, such as "cultivation, spiritual energy, spiritual roots, and spiritual springs."
I was incredibly excited.
At the same time, they became even more certain that the Su family must be hiding a magical treasure.
What upset him was that he had clearly investigated before coming here and found out that the Su family was clearing out their old house and moving into their new house.
Logically speaking, the Su family members should be tidying up the house and organizing things right now.
This is precisely the time when the protection of "celestial treasures" is at its most relaxed.
Why are they still guarding this place?
"Don't you guys need to sleep?"
"When you move into a new house, you should familiarize yourself with the environment and tidy up the furnishings, right?"
"The child is so young, shouldn't you two parents spend more time with him/her late at night?" The eldest son of the Chen family complained in his mind.
With Su Qingyan and his wife guarding the cultivation room, the three brothers had no chance to make a move.
At this moment, the second and third sons of the Chen family also came over. Hearing the noise in the room, they looked at each other, somewhat bewildered.
I don't know what to do next.
Just as the three brothers were caught in a dilemma, the eldest Chen suddenly felt a chill run down his spine. A quick glance out of the corner of his eye revealed a detail that sent a cold sweat down his spine:
There are three brothers here.
Why are there four heads in the shadows of the light coming through the crack in the door, even though it's pitch black all around?
