Chapter 10: The Truth
"Father, Xiao Yuqian said that he wants to know the secret of his parents now, you see......"
Mu Pengfu said respectfully to a man sitting on a wooden chair, and the man nodded, signaling Mu Pengfu not to make a sound.
"Xiao Yuqian, son of the famous magician Xiao Xinghui?"
The man looked at Xiao Yuqian and asked, as if he was asking and answering himself, and the man then nodded,
"Okay! Sure enough, the tiger father has no dogs, and your performance today is really an eye-opener for us. On behalf of the Mu family, I would like to thank you for helping us a lot. To tell you the truth, I have a little friendship with your father, although I don't know much, but I also know some of his secrets. He didn't agree with me telling you, but I think there's something you need to know sooner or later. ”
When Xiao Yuqian heard that the head of the Mu family knew his father, a name popped up in his heart.
"Uncle Mu Zeyang?"
The man was stunned for a moment, and then smiled:
"How do you know my name?" Xiao Xinghui told you?"
Xiao Yuqian nodded, when his father was alive, he often told his mother that he knew a person named Mu Zeyang, and the family was not small, but Xiao Yuqian didn't expect that he was the head of the Mu family. Xiao Yuqian sat down, took the tea handed by the servant and took a sip,
"Your father did not die of disease, he was killed!"
When he said this, Mu Zeyang looked sad.
Burst......
Xiao Yuqian choked on a sip of tea, what he knew and this were two versions.
"My sister told me that my dad died of cancer, and that our family owes two million because of this. ”
"At that time, you were still young, and it was naturally easy to lie to you, and when you grew up, you didn't pursue it too much, and this matter was hidden. Your dad was still performing magic tricks the day before he died, and he was still alive and kicking around at the time, and he was going to die of cancer a day later?"
Xiao Yuqian had already put this matter behind him, but when he mentioned it again at this moment, he was indeed full of suspicions.
"My father didn't offend anyone, why was he killed?"
"Didn't offend anyone?"
Mu Zeyang smiled bitterly, and after being silent for a long time, he seemed to have finally made up his mind.
"Your father works for the country, and the magician is just a front for his identity. ”
If the things that Xiao Yuqian has encountered these days can refresh his three views, this news can simply make his three views collapse.
"My father...... Is it the kind of agent on TV?"
Mu Zeyang shook his head,
"How can those agents be as powerful as Xiao Xinghui, your father has carried out dozens or even hundreds of missions, large and small. For this reason, he has offended many people, although he has escaped countless disasters, but this time, he did not escape, and even your mother was implicated. ”
Xiao Yuqian only felt that there was a fire burning in his heart, and he didn't care about any etiquette.
"Who did it?"
Mu Zeyang did not answer this question positively,
"Before your father's death, the power of the Lin family was the dominant force in Pangshui City, but in the month of your father's death, the Lin family's illegal forces in Pangshui City and even the whole country and even abroad were suddenly resolved, which allowed our other three major families to catch up. The Lin family naturally held a grudge against the person who did this. Xiao Xinghui was killed at the end of the month, guess what's the connection?"
Mu Zeyang didn't say it explicitly, but everyone could hear the meaning of his words, Xiao Yuqian looked angrily in the direction of the Lin family, whether this was an annual meeting or not, he wanted to go straight to Old Man Lin. Mu Zeyang waved his hand, and a powerful force pressed him back into the chair - another cultivator whose cultivation is not low!
"With your current strength, wanting to take revenge is tantamount to a moth to a fire. At first, I only knew your surname Xiao, do you want to understand how I knew that you were Xiao Xinghui's son?"
Xiao Yuqian nodded.
"Because of that explosion at the bar. At that time, someone from the Mu family was in the bar, and he was also an elite of our Mu family, and he noticed that someone was framing you. I was bored at the time, and wanted to know who you were a bar magician to provoke, so I investigated you, but I didn't expect to find out your parents, which made me even more interested, until finally I remembered that your father once said that his son's name was Xiao Whatqian. And ......"
Mu Zeyang said, his face became serious,
"The organization that framed you this time seems to be the same as the organization that killed your father, and they were all hired by the Lin family, it seems that the Lin family not only hired someone to kill Xiao Xinghui, but also wanted to kill you without being suspected by others after tracking down your whereabouts by some means. ”
Xiao Yuqian understood the deep meaning of this sentence: Don't think about revenge first, think about how to protect yourself first. The strength of the Lin family is strong, even if the card spirit can help him become a strong man, the Lin family will definitely not let him live until that time. But even if he is not strong enough now, one day he will defeat the so-called Poison Butterfly Sect!
"I have an offer, I don't know if you can accept it. ”
Seeing Xiao Yuqian's distressed appearance, Mu Zeyang said appropriately. Without waiting for Xiao Yuqian to answer, he continued:
"You have helped us a lot this time, I can let you and your sister be protected by the Mu family, and you are a member of the Mu family. Treat you as my adopted sons and daughters. ”
Speaking of this, Mu Zeyang sighed, one thing Xiao Xinghui did ten years ago can be said to have saved the Mu family. Regardless of whether Xiao Yuqian got the Blood Stone or not, there was no reason why he should not help the Xiao siblings.
"I'm going to discuss this with my sister. ”
Although it is indeed a good choice to rely on the Mu family at this time, after all, Xiao Yuqian also has to ask his sister if she is willing to live a life under the fence.
"Also, can I continue to be a magician in the Mu family, and I will definitely do my best if there is anything that needs me. ”
Mu Zeyang nodded in agreement, he knew that Xiao Yuqian was also a face-saving person, and it was impossible for him to agree to be "raised".
"In the future, where our Mu family needs magicians to attend, you will be there. Okay, let's not talk about this, it's a rare annual meeting, it's fun. ”
Mu Zeyang interrupted the topic with a simple sentence, and motioned for Mu Pengfu to take Xiao Yuqian's entertainment area with him last year.
It is said to be an entertainment area, but in fact, it is a small commercial street, with food, drink and even casinos. Xiao Yuqian had just learned the truth about the cause of his father's death, so he was naturally in no mood to play these, but Mu Wanhan, who had followed him all the way, excitedly played this and that, and finally stood in front of the casino table.
Unexpectedly, Mu Wanhan's side was Lin Feiwen.
"Yo, isn't this the Wanhan girl of the Mu family?
Lin Feiwen said to Mu Wanhan with a smile.
"Cut, don't underestimate Miss Ben, you better mind yourself, Mr. Trapeze at the annual meeting, your magic tricks are really wonderful. ”
Mu Wanhan didn't save Lin Feiwen any face, and directly exposed the scars of his failed performance. Lin Feiwen's face darkened, but he didn't speak, and he didn't know what he was planning in his heart.
However, then, I don't know what to do, Mu Wanhan's cards are pitifully small, and there are not many chips left when there are not many chips. The little girl gambled red-eyed, but the sky did not fulfill people's wishes, and the chips in her hand became fewer and fewer, while the chips in Lin Feiwen's hand next to her were accumulating more and more.
Xiao Yuqian snorted disdainfully, but he just prepared two cards in his hand, and took the opportunity to take the big cards in his hand when he pretended to touch the cards, and put the small cards on top of the card pile.
"Miss Wanhan, it looks like you don't have much leverage right now, so let's make a deal. If you win this time, all the chips in my hand are yours, and if I win, you can stay with me for one night, how about it? I have at least 10 million chips in my hand. ”
Lin Feiwen finally revealed his true colors, and he really didn't have any good intentions, so he really thought about this.
Mu Wanhan didn't have many chips in her hand but wanted a chance to turn over, after hearing Lin Feiwen's request, a normal person should have refused, but gambling had made her lose her mind, so she agreed.
Xiao Yuqian instantly became nervous when he heard this, looking at Lin Feiwen's expression, it was impossible for Mu Wanhan to win this time.
When Mu Wanhan turned over the third card, his heart instantly cooled down - 4 spades!
"What's going on, Miss Wanhan, I'm going to flop!"
At this time, a pair of hands pressed his cards, and Lin Feiwen was furious,
"Xiao Yuqian, what do you want to do!"
"Don't be angry, Lin Gongzi, I'm just helping you flop to prove that you didn't make a fortune. ”
Xiao Yuqian sneered and said that it was impossible for him to sit idly by at this time. Anyway, he just agreed to be the magician of the Mu family, and this kind of thing still has to be done.
It's just a flop, and I just saw that he didn't have anything in his hand, what other magic power can this kid use?
Lin Feiwen thought so and nodded. When Xiao Yuqian turned over the cards, Lin Feiwen smiled proudly,
"How about it, Miss Wanhan, should you be willing to gamble and lose and stay with me for one night?"
Looking at Mu Wanhan, Lin Feiwen showed a smug smile that his plan had succeeded.
"Lin Feiwen bothered you to make a face, obviously you lost!"
Xiao Yuqian said unhurriedly.
"What?!"
Lin Feiwen immediately looked at his card - 3 of hearts! No way, he obviously put 9 of spades!
Xiao Yuqian didn't care what he put it, and when he pressed it on the pie, he used the magic trick to move a 3 of hearts, and took the original card.
"Thank you, handsome guy Xiao!"
Mu Wanhan happily took away the chips in front of Lin Feiwen, and then Xiao Yuqian pulled Mu Wanhan away,
"Miss Mu, you have to know how to accept it when you see it, you look at someone, you have won so much, and now you don't have nothing, standing there like a fool, so don't gamble anymore. ”
Xiao Yuqian hid his anger at his father's murder, and pretended to talk and laugh with Mu Wanhan easily, deliberately so that Lin Feiwen could hear it.
"Xiao Yuqian, I warn you, don't be too nosy. Pay attention to safety, the world is unpredictable, maybe there will be some natural and man-made disasters!"
Lin Feiwen gritted his teeth and said something unclear.
Xiao Yuqian stopped and looked back at Lin Feiwen with a cruel look in his eyes,
"Yes, the world is unpredictable. I also send a message to some people: Come out and mix, sooner or later you will have to pay it back!"
Xiao Yuqian is not talking and playing, sooner or later, one day, he will overthrow the Lin family. He is no longer the cowardly Xiao Yuqian he used to be, when he is strong enough, he will make the Lin family pay for his blood debts. There is also the Poison Butterfly Sect, he will definitely push it into the abyss of destruction with his own hands!
