Chapter 53 Round Table
At the auction, what the Fang family did had already aroused the anger of the rest of the families, but none of the families openly went to the Fang family to seek revenge, even the Bian family, the Tan family, the Xue family, the Luo family, these big families, there was no movement.
It's like they've forgotten about it, but is that really the case?
In fact, the Tan family and the Luo family once sent their cronies to the Fang family to ask for an explanation, but after the people of these two families went, they became stupid and stupid when they came back, and they couldn't say anything.
The Fang family had already made it clear that they would not have any contact with these other families.
After discussing with several major families, they felt that it was not the time yet, because they had not figured out the bottom of the Fang family.
At this time, Tan Yu, the eldest lady of the Tan family, Bian Liang, the head of the Bian family, Luo Peike, the eldest young master of the Luo family, and Xue Hongde of the Xue family all gathered together, and there were also some middle-to-upper family leaders who were also at the scene.
After a few polite words to each other, they sat down around the round table.
This was the first gathering between several big families after that incident, and as soon as Bian Liang sat down, he slapped the table and yelled at Xue Hongde.
"Old ghost Xue, you don't fucking be quick to tell the truth, how much do you know about the other party!?"
Although this Bian Liang didn't speak very well, the rest of the people also had the same doubts, neither echoed, but also did not stop Bian Liang's questioning, they just looked at Xue Hongde quietly.
Xue Hongde also knew that he couldn't hide this time, so he sighed.
"I can't hide it, everyone, I really don't know what my Xue family wants to do with the other family. ”
Uncle laughed. Tan Yu smiled, in this group of people, her age can really be said to be the youngest, Tan Yu, who has just turned 27 years old this year, has a delicate figure, a very capable long brown hair, a delicate little face, and a pair of bright eyes.
"Since Uncle warned his son-in-law in advance to pay attention to the Fang family's actions, then why didn't he know anything about what the other family was doing?
Although Tan Xue spoke politely, every word pointed out that Xue Hongde had an indescribable relationship with the Fang family, and everyone nodded when they heard it.
Xue Hongde frowned, and then smiled bitterly.
"Big niece... You misunderstood me, I really didn't know that this Fang family would be so frustrated and would make such a move, as for why I noticed that they would make a difference.... Alas. ”
Halfway through speaking, he sighed, and there was some inexplicable sadness in his tone.
"As you know, my wife... It was at the hands of those monsters... That upheaval three years ago... I guess everyone is still apprehensive. ”
Three years ago...
Three years ago again.
Hearing Xue Hongde mention three years ago, the faces of everyone present changed slightly, and then Xue Hongde continued.
"Since then, my Xue family has been concentrating on studying what these monsters are and where they come from, of course, not only me, I believe that among all of you here, there must be people who have begun to care about these weird monsters because of the incident three years ago. After that, Xue Hongde's eyes inadvertently looked at someone present.
Lopek...
This young man with glasses and Si Wenwen is the eldest young master of the Luo family, and he is also the current head of the Luo family.
He listened to Xue Hongde's words, looked up again, and sure enough, Xue Hongde was also looking at himself.
So he nodded slightly to show his agreement with Xue Hongde's words.
"I'm not going to hide it from you. Xue Hongde continued to bring the topic back.
"I, the Xue family, have started a series of studies on these monsters. With that, he suddenly pulled out a black dagger from his bosom.
When everyone saw him do this, they suddenly became a little nervous, but they saw him throw the short sword into the middle of the round table.
"This is a blade refined by my Xue family, which can have a strange restraint effect on that kind of alien monster, of course, it has also been tested in actual combat, and the effect on the pursuer... It's still relatively bad. ”
Everyone carefully looked at the black short sword on the table, but no one reached out to take it, they look at me, I look at you, and in the end, no one dared to touch this sword.
"That's... How is your Xue family?"
Tan Yu continued to ask.
"If you rely on my Xue family alone, you naturally don't have this ability... I think you also know that my Xue family... Although the ancestor also relied on this secret method to make a family, but the family is in the middle of the road, and it has almost been deserted, and now I am the only one who is on vacation to major in this secret method, Xue Hongde..."After that, he sighed with some regret.
His father, that is, the current old lady of the Xue family, Xue Guangqi was very disgusted with these strange secret techniques, he felt that it was these things that harmed the Xue family and almost wiped out the whole family, although he did not object to Xue Hongde practicing these secret techniques, but he forbade Xue Hongde to carry these things forward in the family.
So very helpless, although Xue Hongde is talented, he can only secretly pass on this secret method to his son, as well as Zhong Yixue, who is as close as his daughter.
"I don't know if you've heard of it...."Xue Hongde came back to his senses from his emotion and continued.
"Organization, that's what it's called. ”
Everyone nodded.
"Hmph, isn't it just an institution that specializes in the study of monsters?" Bian Liang said with great disdain, it seemed that he didn't have a good impression of these people who were engaged in scientific research.
"I heard that there are two strange people in the Fang family, who are also high-level personnel in this organization, could it be... What does this have to do with them?" Ropec asked, holding his glasses, asking his doubts.
"Young Master Luo, don't rush to conclusions first. Xue Hongde interrupted Luo Peike's question and continued.
"We've captured very low-level monsters and used them to... Experiment with how to kill them faster. Speaking of this, Xue Hongde couldn't help but glance at everyone.
But to his relief, there is no such thing as a Virgin in this group, and they all have a look in their eyes that is a matter of course.
This made Xue Hongde's next words more confident.
"But once, during the capture operation, we unexpectedly encountered a monster that we had never seen before.... He's unlike all the monster types that have appeared over the years. At this, his hand trembled slightly.
“... He... More like a human being..."
Bang dang.
The crowd almost stood up. Suddenly, there was the sound of chairs being removed.
"What do you say, human?"
Bian Liang asked incredulously.
"Hmm... Yes, human... But he has the agility of a creeper, the strength of a brainless, the special ability of a stalker... But his body structure .... It's all human..."
When Xue Hongde said this, he recalled that day...
When he and Steward Zhong went out hunting, captured the humanoid monster, and dissected it... Suddenly discovered... The internal structure of this monster's body is exactly the same as that of a human...
"It's impossible. Luo Peike said solemnly.
"My Luo family has also dissected countless creepers, even hunters, and we have also had the honor of dissecting two, whether these monsters are body structure, or brain structure, or even their existence itself, it is a negation of our current world, they can't be the same as the structure of human beings!"
Lopek's tone seemed to be a little agitated.
Because if what Xue Hongde said is true, then the results of his Luo family's efforts in the past few years are almost in vain.
These monsters didn't grow the way they thought they would...
“... He was still alive when we dissected his body, and... It was as if he had woken up from some kind of madness. Xue Hongde pressed his hand to his temple, his expression was painful. His thoughts... Gradually, back to that day...
"How is it possible!!Master!master!he!he's a human!!" Steward Zhong knelt on the ground trembling with blood on his hands, he looked at the humanoid monster on the operating table in horror, knowing that ten minutes ago, he could still dig his hand into the monster's belly without feeling it, but now...
He realized... Did he dissect a living person...
It's not that he doesn't dare to kill people, he doesn't dare to dissect people.
It's just that... Dissecting a person with the mentality of dissecting a person is completely different from dissecting a person with the mentality of dissecting a monster...
That will only plunge you into a kind of madness of despair....
Xue Hongde was also shocked, his lips trembled, and he kept staring at the monster, but suddenly, he found that the monster's originally closed eyes moved slightly.
Subsequently... He opened his eyes.
The pair of cloudy and godless pupils looked at Xue Hongde like this.
“...... Save.... Fate..."
Hearing this, Xue Hongde and Steward Zhong couldn't stand it, at that time, they had only one thought in their minds.
Save.
I didn't think about it at all, this thing was still a murderous monster before.
"Hurry, hurry!" Xue Hongde yelled at Steward Zhong, and he quickly began to deal with the monster to stop the bleeding.
And Steward Zhong didn't delay, and quickly began to rummage through the cabinets and began to look for anything that could come in handy.
"I... I don't want to die..."The man watched his abdomen being dissected, and even his organs were exposed, and he actually... Tears flowed ...
"You're not going to die, hold on. Xue Hongde tried to restore his organs that had been relocated, but for some reason, the tenacious vitality that the East and West had just shown seemed to have completely disappeared at this time, his organs began to tremble violently, and his heart even began to splatter blood.
And that blood is real... Red...
"What's going on, what's going on!? why?!" Xue Hongde kept shouting, blood kept flowing from the man's mouth, and the tears in his eyes gradually turned into bloody tears, and he said to Xue Hongde with a crying voice.
“... Please... Please..."
Xue Hongde clenched his hand.
"I'll save you, I'll save you!"
But the monster just shook its head and cried.
"No... Used... Exhausted... I... It's not that I want to kill someone... I'm really not... I don't want to... Kill—" He began to cough violently in the middle of his sentence.
More blood began to seep out of his body as he coughed.
The operating table is already full of red blood...
"You... You are Xue... Sir, I.. I know you... I'm sorry... I attacked you... I'm sorry..."The monster suddenly said this, causing Xue Hongde, who was originally desperate, to suddenly raise his head.
"What, what!? You are...", looking at his cloudy and gray eyes, Xue Hongde's heart suddenly had a terrifying thought.
"You... You!?" This monster in front of you... That face was already a little familiar to me.
Take a closer look at this time, isn't this the former driver of your own, Shu Xuewen!?
He suddenly disappeared from Xue's house three months ago, and because he was his old subordinate for many years, and even because he was already a friend, Xue Hongde was also very anxious to find his traces.
Three months have passed. I didn't expect to see him again... It would be...
"Lao Shu!!fucking you!!How did you become like this!!" Xue Hongde cried hoarsely.
There was a sound of glass smashing nearby.
After Steward Zhong heard Xue Hongde shout this title, the glass bottle in his hand fell to the ground in an instant.
"Old, old Shu.. How, how could it be.... How is that possible...."
He trembled, his old body barely able to support the series of blows, and he almost fainted.
"Master Xue... Master Xue... It's Lao Shu, I'm sorry for you... Lao Shu... I caused you so much trouble before leaving... But.. But Lao Shu still wants to... Please... I... My daughter... and my youngest son..."
Xue Hongde grabbed his hand, looking at the blood that was still oozing from his abdomen, tears had already burst out of his eyes.
"Damn, shut up Lao Tzu! Fuck you, don't explain what happened! Lao Tzu must save you! Steward Zhong!! Hurry! Go and ask Mr. Chang! Hurry!!"
Steward Zhong nodded tremblingly, and then rushed out.
"Sir... After this exhaustion.... My body will return to its human state... Such a serious injury... I'm not saved... You can listen to my final request..."Shu Xuewen's expression was slightly distorted because of the pain.
He gasped for breath as he spoke, his eyes fixed on Xue Hongde.
"Well... You say!"
Xue Hongde was helpless, before Chang Ziming arrived, he had to let Shu Xuewen hold on no matter what.
"Sir... My daughter... Do you remember... It is... The blind one... You also.. I hugged her... And my son... My son... You've sent him a lot... Toy... Ahem, ahem!"
"Okay! Okay! Lao Tzu knows! Don't fucking say it! Lao Shu! I will definitely take good care of your son and daughter!" Xue Hongde's tears had already wet his face, but this was powerless to prevent Shu Xuewen's condition from continuing to deteriorate...
"Master..."Finally, Shu Xuewen's voice became weaker and weaker, but his expression was a little relaxed... It seemed that his deliverance was about to come.
"Sir... Organization... and the Fang family..."From his mouth, these words suddenly spit out.
"What, what??" Xue Hongde was puzzled and hurriedly asked.
"I was organized... Make it .... This look... And also... Fang family... Fang family... Be careful of the Fang family... They... In the meantime... Space... There will be a huge... Movement... Master... Be careful... Ahem... Fang family... Behind the darkness... Really... Too... It's terrible..."
Organize and... Fang Family...?
Xue Hongde became more and more confused, but suddenly... He realized.
Shu Xuewen... 's breath is getting weaker and weaker.
He knew what was coming... And he is powerless to stop it.
So he didn't speak again, just quietly held his hand.
"Sir... Take care..."
Let's talk about it... Shu Xuewen let out a long sigh and closed his eyes forever.
