Chapter 2 The Body of Seven Wounds

Not long after Xie Hao arrived, the Xie family members also arrived at the back mountain.

The fire in the wooden house was quickly extinguished. As Xie Chen expected, no clues were found.

Almost most people agree with Xie Hao's statement that because the weather is dry, some flammable substances in the wooden house have spontaneously ignited.

The reason why everyone in the tribe thinks so is because the Xie family in Wushi Town is a branch of the Xie clan of the Tianluo Kingdom. Moreover, although the clan leader Xie Xuan is a spiritual master, he is gentle and kind to others. He has never heard of any rival or enemies.

Even nearby bandits or passing horse thieves will not be in trouble with the Xie family for the sake of the Xie family. After all, the Xie family, which has a strong Lingzong level, can definitely be considered a first-class family in the Tianluo Kingdom. No one is willing to provoke such a family.

"Brother Chen, why are you coming out? Didn't the doctor say that it's not easy to see wind when you get burns?"

The day after the fire broke out in the wooden house in the back mountain, Xie Chen was wrapped like a human-shaped rice dumpling. As soon as he pushed open the door and breathed out, a scream came from him.

The little fat man Xie Tuo was currently leaning on a crutch, and his right leg was wrapped like a meat dumpling, and he was swaying and he happened to come back from outside the yard. Seeing Xie Chen standing at the door, his two bent eyebrows couldn't help but lean into the middle.

Seeing Xie Tuo, who was as fat as a meat ball, now he came over like a bouncing ball. Xie Chen resisted the urge to laugh and said, "It's okay, I'm suffocating me to death in the room... By the way, why have you gone out too?"

Since Xie Tuo was adopted by the patriarch Xie Xuan, he has been living in the same yard as Xie Chen. Although the two are just cousins, their relationship is even closer than their own brothers.

At this moment, Xie Tuo was like a little adult, shaking his round head and said to Xie Chen in an old tone: "Don't change the topic, Brother Chen, it's not that I'm talking about you, your health is not good, and now you're hurt again, it's the weakest time. If you get cold at this time and then get sick, why would I explain to Uncle San? Go back to your room soon."

Xie Chen was happy, and he naturally knew that although this guy was always unrestrained in his speech, over the years, Xie Tuo, his cousin, has been taking care of his weak and sick cousin. However, now he is no longer the weak and sick cousin.

The young man who originally existed in this body had already been choked and suffocated by thick smoke when the wooden house caught fire. Although the condition of this body is still not optimistic, his soul is already different from the past.

"Okay, I'll go back." Facing Xie Tuo, who was still childish, Xie Chen felt warm and turned back to the room.

Seeing that Xie Chen was very involved, Xie Tuo also followed in with a crutch and said mysteriously to Xie Chen: "Brother Chen, I passed by the conference hall just now, and the third uncle and the eldest elder and the others started arguing!"

"Father and the Great Elder? Why?" Xie Chen lay on the bed very comfortably and asked in surprise. In my memory, my father has always been indifferent to the world and rarely has disagreements with others. Why do he quarrel with the Great Elder?

"It's not because of Tianxincao!" Xie Tuo's eyes widened, looking quite angry.

"Tianxincao?"

"Yes! Didn't the family get a Tianxin grass a while ago? This Tianxin grass was originally given to the third uncle by the clan, but the eldest elder has always wanted to take it for himself. This time you were burned by a wildfire and needed healing, and the eldest elder tried his best to stop him. No wonder the third uncle was angry."

Tianxin Grass is an extremely rare spiritual medicine on Dou Ling Continent. Legend has it that it has the miraculous effect of changing qualifications and enhancing spiritual power. If a young man with ordinary qualifications takes Tianxin Grass, his innate qualifications can be comparable to a genius. If a genius takes it, his cultivation speed will be greatly improved. However, this increase is only effective for a young man who has not awakened his natal spirit. Once he awakens his natal spirit, there will be no effect.

This time, because Xie Xuan, the head of the Xie family branch of Wushi Town, made contributions to the clan, the clan specially rewarded Xie Xuan with a Tianxin grass.

In theory, the Tianxin grass of the clan was rewarded to Xie Xuan personally, and Xie Xuan had the right to decide the ownership of the Tianxin grass himself. However, Xie Xuan acted openly and took the initiative to put the Tianxin grass in the family treasure house, preparing to discuss with the clan members before taking it to Xie Chen. However, the great elder obstructed in every way and asked the Tianxin grass to be taken to the most qualified family children in the name of revitalizing the family.

Xie Chen had already learned all this in his memory. Now that he thought about it, he already understood it roughly.

"To put it bluntly, who doesn't know the elder's thoughts? Didn't you just want the third uncle to give Tianxin grass to his son Xie Hao? He didn't think about who Tianxin grass belonged to? If you have the ability, he would also make contributions to the clan himself! How thick-skinned you have to do this kind of thing about having a son without anus?... Brother Chen, what are you thinking?" The fat man Xie Tuo was indignant, but when he looked up, he found that Xie Chen seemed a little absent-minded, and his eyes were also swimming around, as if looking for something.

"Oh, nothing..." Xie Chen withdrew his gaze, still with a hint of hesitation in his eyes, "Xie Tuo, have you heard someone speak just now?"

"Speak?" The little fat man was stunned and scratched his head, "No, we are the only one in the room... Brother Chen, what did you hear?"

"Haha, nothing, maybe I heard it wrong."

"Are Brother Chen here?" At this moment, a clear voice suddenly rang in the courtyard. Without asking, Xie Chen and the others already knew who was coming.

Xie Chen laughed and looked at Xie Tuo with a smile, "Xie Tuo, nothing is coming, do you want to confirm it?"

"Damn! It's so evil, who's here!" The little fat man Xie Tuo curled his lips, then secretly glanced at the door, and said stutteringly: "Why is he here? He probably didn't hear me say he doesn't have that..."

"Oh, Xie Tuo is here too." As he spoke, the boy with a thin figure and handsome face had already walked in with a smile.

"Xie Tuo, Brother Chen's injury is much worse than you. Why are you so ignorant? You are here to disturb Brother Chen's rest at this time." Xie Hao fully demonstrated his majesty as a cousin. While scolding Xie Tuo gently, he also showed his concern for Xie Chen.

"Then are you here too? You're still so loud..." In front of Xie Hao, who had always been majestic, Xie Tuo was obviously not confident enough and just muttered in a low voice.

"What did you say?! Can I be the same as you..." Xie Hao smiled and smiled and prepared to teach this "bad" cousin a lesson with righteous words.

"Cousin Hao, are you okay with me?" Xie Chen spoke at the right time and saved Xie Tuo.

"Brother Chen, lie down quickly and don't get up. If you have any injuries on your body, don't be too polite for our own brothers." Xie Hao couldn't help but say with concern when he saw Xie Chen wanting to sit up.

Xie Chen did not refuse. He had no intention of getting up. Seeing Xie Hao say this, he simply nestled in the soft quilt and looked at Xie Hao leisurely.

Seeing Xie Chen like this, Xie Hao couldn't help but be slightly stunned. For some reason, from yesterday, he suddenly felt that his cousin seemed different from before. But Xie Hao could not think of what the specific place was different. Standing in front of Xie Chen now, Xie Hao, who was scheming, could even feel an unprecedented pressure.

"Uh...that's the case." Xie Hao suppressed the strange feeling in his heart and said, "I just got news from the servant that the patriarch and my father had arguing about the matter of Tianxincao in the meeting hall..."

"Well, I know this. Xie Tuo just told me, did you want that Tianxin grass?" Xie Chen's expression was calm, and his eyes seemed to be able to see through Xie Hao's heart.

"Yes...oh! No..." Xie Hao nodded subconsciously, then his expression changed drastically and shook his head vigorously. The words he had already figured out were instantly disrupted by Xie Chen's words, so he was suddenly speechless.

Now, Xie Tuo, the little fat man next to him, suddenly had an idea and found an opportunity.

"Brother Hao, this is your wrong thing. You know that Brother Chen has been in poor health since he was a child. If Uncle San had not used spiritual power to nourish Brother Chen's meridians, I'm afraid Brother Chen's name would have been engraved on the tombstone now. What's the use of Tianxin Grass? You don't know. Brother Chen may have good health after eating it."

The little fat man Xie Tuo had a clever spirit from somewhere, and his voice was lingering, "Yesterday, a big fire almost cooked Brother Chen. He was in such a poor health. If he didn't eat Tianxincao, he would die! At this time, do you still want to take away Tianxincao that saved Brother Chen's life?!"

"Uh... no, Xie Tuo, you misunderstood... I didn't say I want Tianxincao..."

"So, Brother Hao is here to tell Brother Chen this time that you don't want Tianxincao anymore? That's great, thank you Brother Hao..."

"No, you'll finish listening to me, it's not that."

"No? Then I don't understand. Brother Hao, you talk about Tianxincao when you come. Do you don't want Brother Chen to eat it?"

"I didn't say I didn't want Brother Chen to eat... No, when did I say I don't want it anymore?"

For a moment, Xie Hao was a little confused by the fat man's mess. Xie Chen just lay there with a smile, as if listening to the conversation between the two, but when he looked closely, he seemed to be listening to something else.

"Fatty, shut up! Listen to me!" After a while, Xie Hao, who was in a panic, finally sorted out his originally chaotic thoughts and roared at the little fat man who was spitting out stars.

"Brother Chen, I know your injuries are serious and your health has been bad..." After calming down, Xie Hao sorted out his thoughts and said seriously: "The family is now divided into two factions, and he argues endlessly about whom Tianxincao is given to."

"You also know that only a young man who has not yet awakened his natal spirit can change his innate qualifications. In the family, your health is so poor, and Xie Tuo and I are all qualified only... "

"What cousin Hao means is that my health is not good at all, and eating at most is just a general qualification. But if you eat it, you can add a genius to the family, right?" Xie Chen hit the nail on the head again.

"Yes." This time, Xie Hao was not panicked, but nodded righteously, "We have never had a genius in the Xie family in Wushi Town. Because of this, our branch is gradually being marginalized by the clan. If a talented genius can appear..."

"I understand. I told my father that I don't want this Tianxincao."

"Brother Chen, I actually want you very much for you... Uh, really?!" Although Xie Chen's words choked back the Honglun "The Rise of Family" prepared by Xie Hao, Xie Hao suddenly had his eyes lit up, and the surprise was beyond words.

"Brother Chen, you have to know that I want this Tianxin Grass not for myself, but..."

"I know, cousin Hao is for the family."

"Yes, yes! For the sake of the family! Brother Chen, don't worry, if I become a genius in the family, I will never treat you badly."

"Cousin Hao is out, we are a family." Xie Chen yawned and smiled faintly.

"That's right, that's right, my brother, hehe, my brother..." Xie Hao's face was full of excitement. Seeing Xie Chen's face tired, he was afraid that things would change, so he hurriedly said, "Brother Chen's injury has not healed, so let's take a break quickly. This matter is settled..."

"Yeah, I won't give it to you." Xie Chen's eyelids drooped and he nodded slightly.

"Brother Chen, why did you hint me just now and not let me speak?! Is Tianxincao just giving him this?" It was not until Xie Hao left excitedly that the little fat man Xie Tuo asked indignantly and confusingly.

"Give it to him?" Xie Chen Xie Xie smiled, closed his eyes and said, "I just said I don't want Tianxincao, but what do I say I want to give it to him?"

"Then what do you mean? Or did the torch yesterday burn your head out?" The fat man blinked his big eyes and muttered suspiciously.

At this time, Xie Chen had no intention of explaining to Xie Tuo. In his mind, an old voice chuckled and said, "Boy, I have squandered my efforts to change the six-injured body into the seven-injured body. If you eat that Tianxin grass again, all your previous efforts will be wasted."

"The Seven Injury Body"? Xie Chen was full of suspicion and couldn't help but blurt out: "Who are you?"

"Brother Chen, who are you talking to?!" The little fat man Xie Tuo was stunned when he heard Xie Chen's words. Then he looked carefully at Xie Chen, who was still breathing evenly with his eyes closed, scratched his head hard, and muttered: "Is it because he fell asleep and talked in his sleep? But Brother Chen is really, he actually slept so fast... faster than me... faster than pig..."
