Chapter 137 Xiaowu comes to visit, filial piety
"Do you want to put a stamp on Sang Yu's butt?"

Under the sacred tree, an idea suddenly popped up in Chen Shi's mind, "Sang Yu is the godmother of Huangpo Village. The villagers of Huangpo Village respect her as their godmother. Whether I confer a title on her or not, she has a natural fiefdom."

he mused.

For a spirit like Sang Yu who was born in a natural land, there was no need for his intervention. The common people would naturally worship her and gather around her to form a village or town. If he intervened forcibly with the West King's Jade Seal, he would destroy the natural balance between the villagers and his godmother.

"If you hold the imperial seal, you cannot do whatever you want. You need to know what to do and what not to do. If you have power and act recklessly, and want to interfere in everything, you will end up doing bad things."

He had some understanding of the responsibilities of the holder of the imperial seal.

Although Mrs. Wuzhu was on crutches, she walked very fast. Not long after, she returned to Huangpo Village and went straight to Chen Shi's house. Seeing Chen Shi sitting under a tree practicing, she smiled and said, "Scholar, you are still sitting here? Your father is back!"

Chen Shi was almost driven crazy by her words. He was a little flustered and quickly stood up and asked, "Chen Tang is back? Where is he?"

"Just now I was visiting your grandfather's grave, and I hit him with my walking stick."

When Mrs. Wuzhu said this, she turned around and saw a tall young man in a scholar's robe walking towards them. She smiled and said, "Speaking of Chen Tang, Chen Tang is here. Isn't he here? You two can chat slowly. I have to go home for dinner."

Creator Xiaowu passed by her and became more and more angry as he thought about it: "Damn it, the old woman hit me with a stick several times. I have to kill her. But her meat is tough and not tasty."

Just as he thought of this, old lady Wuzhu hit him on the butt with her walking stick and scolded him: "Be nice to your son, he has the hardest time!"

Creator Xiaowu was hit by a stick again. He was angry and ashamed, wondering in his heart: "My son? Yes, he is Chen Tang's son. Wuzhu is old and his eyes are blurry. He mistook me for my brother Chen Tang. Well, my father is dead, so I will kill my brother's son to avenge him! Then I will kill Chen Tang!"

He walked forward, glanced at Li Tianqing beside him, then shifted his gaze to Chen Shi.

Although Chen Shi is not very old, he is gradually growing up and looks somewhat similar to Chen Yin.

Creator Xiaowu looked at Chen Shi and saw the shadow of Chen Yindu in him. He thought to himself, "He is Chen Shi? He is much taller than before."

He has met Chen Shi.

Chen Yin would return to Huangpo Village during the holidays, and the Creator Xiaowu would sometimes follow him. One year, Chen Tang was seen holding a big fat boy in his arms and showing him to them, and he said happily that this was his son.

By then, Creator Xiao Wu had already changed his ways and stopped eating ordinary people and started eating monks instead. But he still thought Chen Shi looked delicious and wanted to pick it up with chopsticks like a bun and put it into his mouth with his head tilted back.

Father Chen Yin was very happy, so excited that tears welled up in his eyes. He picked up the baby and held it high up, poking the baby's face with his stubble. When the baby cried, he acted ugly to tease the baby.

"His name is Xiao Shi, so he's called Xiao Shi!"

Chen Yin was very bossy and said to Chen Tang, "Tell me everything, just right!"

Chen Tang was very angry. He smashed plates and bowls while eating. "Dad, I am your biological son. You only have eyes for Xiao Wu! What do you mean by all of it? You can't call him Xiao Shi! My son, I give him a name!"

Although Xiaowu pretended to comfort his younger brother, he was secretly very happy. After all, his father loved him more than his younger brother Chen Tang. Although he had made many mistakes at that time, the words "tell you everything" showed that in his father's heart, he was more important than Chen Tang.

For this reason, he once wanted to turn over a new leaf and try hard to be a good son in his father's eyes, but he still couldn't control himself and kept eating as much as he could.

"Later, Chen Tang and my father each took a step back and gave him a name, Chen Shi. His nickname is Xiao Shi, just like my nickname Xiao Wu."

Chen Shi was also looking at the Creator Xiaowu, and he didn't know what emotions were surging in his heart.

Angry? Maybe.

After all, Chen Tang had never returned home to see himself or his grandfather, and he didn't even attend his grandfather's funeral in person.

Disappointed? Probably.

Chen Tang was his father, but he had never fulfilled his fatherly responsibilities. Chen Shi could not feel any fatherly love from the eyes of this "Chen Tang" in front of him, he only saw him observing him, like a leopard observing its prey.

Chen Shi’s emotions should also be mixed with his longing for family affection, right?
Chen Shi longed for family affection. After his grandfather passed away, the black pot made him think that he was not the only one at home. But every time he lay in bed at night and the black pot no longer affected him, he realized that he was alone.

Chen Shi calmed down the strange emotions in his heart, looked at Zaohua Xiaowu, and wondered: "Chen Tang is so young?"

The "Chen Tang" in front of him looked only about twenty years old, not like someone in his forties or fifties.

If the eight years during which he died are included, Chen Shi would have just turned twenty.

Li Tianqing stood aside, looked at Chen Shi, then looked at Creator Xiaowu, and thought to himself: "They look very similar to each other. Is he Chen Tang? He looks so young."

However, there are often monks who practice methods to maintain eternal youth, so it is not surprising that they appear young.

Chen Shi said calmly: "Chen Tang, you are here? Are you here to burn paper for grandpa? Why don't you eat first?"

His voice was neither salty nor bland.

The father who abandoned her for many years suddenly came back. According to the villagers, it was usually because he was not doing well outside or owed a lot of gambling debts and came back to ask for money. There was a similar case in Huangpo Village. The son of Mrs. Wuzhu did not come home for many years. One year, when he came home, Mrs. Wuzhu was very happy and cried several times. She thought her son had turned over a new leaf, but later she found out that he owed a lot of money outside.

Later, her son stole her coffin money and ran away from the village.

Old Mrs. Wuzhu cried several times because of this, and I don’t know whether she felt sorry for the money or for her son.

Chen Shi didn't know how to deal with the situation, so he wanted to drive Chen Tang away.

"Okay."

Creator Xiaowu walked towards home and said, "Let's have a simple meal first."

He thought to himself, "Let's have a meal first, and then send Xiao Shi off! Dad, I can't burn Wuzhu, but I'm burning your grandson for you, which is also filial piety."

When Chen Shi walked into the yard, Hei Guo had already tidied up the tables and chairs, and the food and bowls were neatly laid out.

"Black pot, Chen Tang is here, add a set of bowls and chopsticks." Chen Shi said.

Hei Guo hurriedly got the chopsticks and served another bowl of rice.

Creator Xiaowu frowned as he watched Heiguo busying around. This dog made him realize that there was an evil spirit in the house.

Hei Guo put down the bowl, looked up to meet his gaze, and was startled.

This "Chen Tang" was not affected by it at all!

You know, even Grandma Sha, Hu Xiaoliang and others would have their thinking consciousness affected by it. Could it be that "Chen Tang" is stronger than Grandma Sha and others?
"Please sit down." Chen Shi walked between them and said.

Creator Xiaowu retracted his gaze and sat down at the table.

Chen Shi sat opposite him.

Li Tianqing sat on the left, and Heiguo took off his apron and sat on the right.

Creator Xiaowu raised his chopsticks and saw Heiguo also raised his chopsticks. He looked over again and said gloomily, "Get off, dog! Who allowed you to sit at the table?"

Hei Guo was startled again, knowing that he had encountered a tough guy that he could not interfere with. He was about to leave in disgrace, but suddenly, Chen Shi slammed the table and shouted, "I allowed it to be on the table! Hei Guo, you are not allowed to leave!"

Creator Xiaowu met Chen Shi's gaze, and the two of them stared at each other across the food with their eyes wide open.

Li Tianqing quickly put down his chopsticks and dared not move.

After a while, Creator Xiaowu chuckled and said, "You have the same stubborn temper as me. No wonder you are called Xiaoshi. Gouzi, your master has allowed you to sit at the table, so just stay. Don't think about influencing me, you can't."

He said silently in his heart: "After we finish this reunion dinner, I will send them on their way and let them reunite with their father in the underworld!"

Hei Guo suddenly felt the pressure and trembled with fear. Li Tianqing, who was standing opposite him, also felt that the atmosphere was a bit depressing. "Chen Shi and Chen Tang, father and son, don't seem to get along well." He thought to himself.

Chen Shi silently took two mouthfuls of rice and looked at the food on the plate. He did not look at "Chen Tang" and said, "Why didn't you come when Grandpa passed away?"

His voice was angry and his tone was questioning.

Creator Xiaowu thought of Chen Yindu, and felt sad again. He said sadly: "I was imprisoned and couldn't get out."

Chen Shi was stunned, looked up at him, then looked away and asked, "Did you commit a crime?"

"Yeah." Creator Xiaowu noticed his concern and thought about it, and realized that he had indeed committed a crime.

"Caught?" Chen Shi asked.

Creator Xiaowu thought about it again and said, "Hmm."

Chen Shi's eyes turned red, and he said, "So you can't come back to see me and grandpa during the New Year?"

Creator Xiaowu sighed, nodded slightly, and said: "I have been locked up for many years and can't get out."

The ice in Chen Shi's heart melted a little. He picked up a fried duck egg and put it in his bowl, saying, "You eat the vegetables."

Creator Xiaowu looked at the food in his bowl with an unfriendly look and snorted, "You picked up food for me? Why did you pick up food for me? Who asked you to pick up food for me?"

Chen Shi frowned, and was a little angry. He slammed his chopsticks on the table: "You are taking my kindness for granted! Eat it if you want!"

Creator Xiaowu looked at the food in the bowl and recalled how he had just been "born" and knew nothing, and how Chen Yin had always picked food for him. He felt inexplicably irritated, as if a strange and weird emotion was eroding his heart and making him uneasy.

"I eat."

He picked up the dish that Chen Shi had picked for him, tasted it, and found it tasted just average but edible.

"It's just not as delicious as the Tianting one."

He thought to himself, "If I had known that this dog could cook, I would have caught the Heaven Listener and cut off his ears, and let the dog cook a table of food."

The three people and one dog at the table ate their meal in silence. Hei Guo and Li Tianqing finished their meal quickly, and left the table and stayed away.

"Will they fight?" Li Tianqing asked Heiguo quietly.

The black pot shook its head, it didn't know either.

But this Chen Tang was so powerful that even his magic could not invade his consciousness at all!
"Is Chen Tang really that powerful?" it thought to itself.

It was picked up from the underworld by Grandpa Chen Yindu. It was only three years old and had never seen Chen Tang.

Creator Xiaowu wanted to finish the meal and send Chen Shi to see Chen Yindu so that he could fulfill his filial piety and live up to his reputation as a filial son, so he ate quickly.

He had just finished a bowl of rice, licked his lips, and with a fierce look in his eyes, he was thinking about how to kill Chen Shi to fulfill his filial piety. Chen Shi opposite him put down his bowl and chopsticks, picked up his bowl, turned around and added more rice for him.

"Have another bowl." Chen Shi placed the full bowl of rice in front of him and whispered.

Creator Xiaowu met his gaze and was stunned.

This look was similar to the one he had when he was trying to please his father Chen Yindu. It was also full of expectation, hoping to get his father's love.

Creator Xiaowu felt a pang of sadness in his heart, and silently picked up his chopsticks and continued eating.

I look at my dad the same way.

Chen Shi is just a child who longs for fatherly love, just like me back then.

Let him live a little longer.

He suddenly put down his chopsticks, thought for a moment, picked up a piece of meat and put it in Chen Shi's bowl, and said, "You eat this."

"Yeah." Chen Shi responded.

Creator Xiaowu looked at him eating and it was as if he saw himself in the past.

The two of them had dinner and all the food on the table was eaten up, so Chen Shi went to clean up the dishes.

Creator Xiaowu hesitated for a moment and did not kill him immediately. Instead, he looked around the yard and asked, "Xiaoshi, have you been living here since your grandfather passed away? Have you ever thought about moving out?"

Chen Shi was washing the dishes and said, "This is our home, why do we have to move out?"

"Is it home?"

Creator Xiaowu was silent for a long time.

"When have I ever been so indecisive?"

He said silently in his heart, "I am not a human, I am a creature, a god and devil created by my father. I don't need human emotions, I am my father in perfect condition!"

Chen Yindu is always innocent and curious about the various phenomena in this world. He always has a strong energy to explore various secrets, discover the truth behind them, and create more and more wonderful spells. But Chen Yindu rarely cares about the people around him.

It was not until Chen Shi was born that he suddenly developed many emotions that he had never had before and began to go home more often.

But Creator Xiaowu is different.

Chen Yindu realized a long time ago that as a human being, he was always troubled by various emotions and could not reach the state of perfection and perfection. Therefore, when his talisman skills reached the pinnacle, he could even create a semi-god and demon creature like Fu Shen Tianji. He decided to create a perfect self.

He tried it five times and succeeded on the fifth time. He created the creature Xiaowu and named him Chen Wu.

Creator Xiaowu serves as his assistant, helping him complete various experiments and explore various secrets.

When Chen Yin was troubled by human emotions and unable to make a decision, Xiao Wu always gave just the right advice.

Therefore, Creator Xiaowu is very resistant to human emotions.

"We can't wait any longer. Kill Chen Shi immediately and send him to the underworld to accompany his father!"

Creator Xiaowu stood up and walked towards Chen Shi.

Chen Shi had already washed the pots and pans and was busy making the bed.

"Don't clean up!" Creator Xiaowu said with a vicious voice.

Chen Shi shuddered, looked up at him, and asked, "Are you leaving today? Aren't you going to stay for two days?"

Creator Xiaowu met his gaze, his eyes full of expectation, like a child begging his father not to leave.

"I……"

Creator Xiaowu was confused and said, "Just stay for two days."

——The funeral is over. I will return to Suzhou today and resume updating as normal.
