He said no more, the chess pieces and the old man landing successively.

About 20 minutes later, the chessboard was full of pieces. Old Master Liu finally put down the pieces he was holding and slightly nodded at Jiang Chen.

"Old man, are you satisfied with this game of chess!"

"In the chess game, everything has already been decided. There is nothing to be unsatisfied about."

Old Master Liu picked up the teacup beside him and took a sip of water. What he said surprised Jiang Chen a little.

He had clearly said just now that there were countless changes in the chess game. Wasn't he lamenting the fickle nature of fate and life!?

Why did he say that everything had been predestined? If it was predestined, then how could it be fickle!

"Old Master, I have to thank you for what happened not long ago!"

"If you're talking about the Ma Family, then there's no need for that. It's just a small matter, but helping me cure my illness is a great kindness. Even though I am declining now, I am still alive for a day and I will not allow others to do as they please."

Old Master Liu raised his head and looked at Jiang Chen meaningfully.

Jiang Chen's heart skipped a beat. The old man's gaze was like a thousand soldiers rushing forward. Although it was calm, it was filled with a solemn and murderous aura.

It seemed that the old man had already grasped the situation regarding Liu Family.

However, it was very possible that the person involved in this matter was a close relative of his. Thus, no matter how decisive his killing might be, it would still be very difficult for him to make a decision when facing his family members.

Jiang Chen had only heard from the people outside that Liu Family was in dire straits. At that time, he didn't feel anything.

Now that he saw him, the situation was indeed much worse than he thought.

Not only was the Liu Family due to the old man's retirement, there was definitely a problem within the imperial court that no one could imagine.

Otherwise, with the old man's power before he retired, he wouldn't have been able to cultivate a border feudal in the future for Liu Family, but it wouldn't be a problem for him to mold a tiger in the army. At least his Liu Family wouldn't collapse so quickly, and he wouldn't be forced to shrink his Guihai to the point where he had to close his doors and seal himself.

"Old Master, you can't recover from your illness that quickly, but I can see that you've already improved a lot, but this is only because I've used the medicine to help you suppress your illness. If you want to completely recover, a single pill is indispensable, but it's very difficult to find this medicine, I need some time, but don't worry, it won't take too long. I know where you'll find this medicine from."

"Hm!" I am very at ease with your work. "

Old Master Liu picked up a chess piece from the box and said, "Your surname is Jiang. You're so young, yet your calmness surpasses mine. I'm afraid you're not from an ordinary family."

He seemed to have guessed something.

Jiang Chen's gaze froze for a moment, then his entire body relaxed as he said: "Old Gramps, what sort of benefits can I have? If I had, I wouldn't have shrunk down in a small place like Guihai!"

His words were obviously an excuse, but Old Master Liu didn't care too much about it. He picked up the last chess piece and put it in the wooden box. Old Master Liu took out half of the metal piece from his pocket and put it on the board.

"Take this, the next time you encounter something like Ma Family, take this thing to the Guihai … …" He saved me on the battlefield many years ago, so he can be considered an old friend of mine. Go and find him, show him this thing, he will definitely help you. "

Saying this, the old man pushed the half piece of metal towards Jiang Chen: "My Liu Family is gradually weakening, and I don't know how many more days I can endure. If I can't, then this day will be a small gift from us!"

Jiang Chen felt a bit uncomfortable. No matter how big the family was, or how prosperous they were, they would all decline one day.

History had slowly walked into the present in the midst of such decline and prosperity.

Perhaps a hundred years later, when no one remembered the name Liu Family anymore, the descendants of the Liu Family would also become ordinary people. Like many other ordinary people, they would live their days working for their livelihoods and struggle, hoping to one day rise to prominence.

And perhaps there would also be another Han Family who would rise in power, the An Family, to become a substitute for Liu Family.

The world is always changing. Nothing will always be there, and no one will always be at the top.

A new clan replaced the old clan. This was a change, and it was one of the laws of nature. For hundreds of thousands of years, regardless of how much progress humans had made, they were still unable to change. That was fate!1

Jiang Chen put away the half piece of metal. After chatting with the old man for a while, he walked out of the room.

"Mr. Jiang, my grandpa's body …!"

Upon seeing Jiang Chen, Liu Jiayu hurried forward to welcome him.

The old man's body is still recovering, so I'll have Zhao Family send more medicine over. You keep an eye on the old man and take some medicine, I'll go back and adjust the dosage, and call me whenever you need it.

After giving Liu Jiayu a few words of advice, Jiang Chen was ready to leave, but just as he was about to leave the Liu Family compound, he was stopped by a young man with a smile on his face at the door.

"You are …?"

Jiang Chen sized him up and looked like a small follower.

"Hello, Mr. Jiang. My master would like to invite you to tea and have a chat with him. I don't know if your time allows it!"

The young man pointed to the car parked outside the courtyard.

"Your master is...?"

Jiang Chen seemed to have thought of something.

"My master is also a person of Liu Family.

Liu Changjun!

Jiang Chen wasn't unfamiliar with this name. The last time he came, it was him who stopped Liu Jiayu from bringing him into the house to diagnose the old man's illness.

However, this person, Jiang Chen, had never been able to figure out his purpose. Master Wu said that he wanted to bribe the people who were going to treat the old man to let them leave; however, the attitude he showed that day made people feel weird. It was as if he didn't want others to treat the old man, but was afraid of being discovered.

"Mr. Jiang, the car is ready for you, take a look …!"

When the young man saw Jiang Chen lower his eyebrows without saying anything, he asked in a gentle tone.

"Let's go!"

After getting on the car, the car slowly drove away from the Liu Family.

Liu Changjun is a respectable person as well. He has never chosen a place to drink tea. Although his Liu Family is low, he was once a big family with some background.

"Please take a seat."

When Jiang Chen arrived, Liu Changjun sat at the tea table and gestured with his hand.

Jiang Chen didn't hold back and sat opposite Liu Changjun.

He didn't have any other reason for coming today, he just wanted to find out the truth about Liu Changjun.

Even though he did not plan to get involved in Liu Family matters, things like wanting to stay still and the wind never stopped. There were many things where the more you want to stay out of it, the harder it is for you to get rid of it.

He already knew a lot about Liu Family, and that was equivalent to having one foot in it. If he wanted to leave, he had to first make the water less turbid.

"I don't know what kind of tea you like to drink, but I let someone run away with a pot of my long-cherished Pu'er."

Liu Changjun raised his hand to signal Jiang Chen.
