Qian Youli lifted the rice bowl, handed it to Dumb, and told Dumb to eat.

In the past, Dumb saw food, no matter what smelled of food, he grabbed it and stuffed it into his mouth, but today, Dumb went against the norm and took the rice bowl, and a cold glint flashed in his dull eyes.

Qian Youli was stared at by Dumb's sharp gaze, trembling all over, feeling that the guy in front of him didn't seem to be the Dumb he was familiar with.

"Dumb, eat, eat," Qian Youli made a gesture and asked Dumb to eat the bowl of poisoned rice.

Dumb was furious, grabbed Qian Youli's neck, and lifted Qian Youli from the ground.

Qian Youli kicked his legs in the air, struggling desperately, feeling that what was wrong with this Ding Mao Courtyard, all of them were deeply hidden, and he was the most stupid.

Dumb is like this, where is there still half a bit of stupidity, it is clearly a vicious devil. He grabbed Qian Youli's neck and shook it hard, throwing Qian Youli to the ground.

Qian Youli hit his head on the wall, dizzy, and Dumb rushed over, stretched out his big fan-like hand, and held down Qian Youli.

Qian Youli was terrified, looked at Dumb, and shouted, "Who are you, who are you?!"

Dumb didn't answer, pinched Qian Youli's mouth, poured the bowl of poisonous rice into Qian Youli's mouth, covered Qian Youli's mouth, and forced Qian Youli to swallow the poisonous rice.

Qian Youli clutched his stomach, with a painful look on his face, rolling on the ground. Dumb stood next to him and looked at Qian Youli coldly.

After struggling for a while, Qian Youli stared, bleeding and dying.

At this time, Wen Xinyi and Xia Yu came back, and Dumb showed an expressionless stupid appearance again, standing there, looking at Qian Youli's corpse.

As soon as Wen Xinyi entered the restaurant, she was startled when she saw Qian Youli bleeding and falling to the ground, and her pretty face turned white with fright.

Xia Yu stepped forward to check it and said, "He died, he was poisoned." ”

"How could he be poisoned?"

After all, Wen Xinyi is still a little woman, and when she encounters this kind of scene, she is at a loss for what to do.

Xia Yu saw that Qian Youli had rice grains in his mouth, and there was half a bowl of rice on the table, so he took half a bowl of rice to check it, and said: "This rice is poisonous, and he died after eating poisonous rice." ”

"Someone poisoned us, it's Gu Changfeng!" Wen Xinyi's eyes widened.

Xia Yu thought for a while and said, "No, although Gu Changfeng is despicable, he is a person who wants to save face." Now that the entire Vermilion Bird Sect knows that I am going to fight him, and at this time he poisoned me, what will people think of him? ”

"Who poisoned the food?" Wen Xinyi asked.

Xia Yu checked it, found half a packet of poison from Qian Youli's body, and said, "This is the poison in the meal." ”

Wen Xinyi glanced at it and said, "This is rat poison for poisonous rats, I handed it over to Qian Youli last month, is it ...... Qian Youli poisoned himself to death?"

Xia Yu said: "Don't bother with it, it's not a pity for this kind of person to die, let's report it to the sect." ”

Wen Xinyi reported to the sect, saying that Qian Youli, a disciple of the inner sect, had been poisoned in the restaurant and died.

The sect sent a few elders and disciples to investigate, but they didn't find any results, and finally came to the conclusion that Qian Youli died by accidentally ingesting poison, and this matter is over.

The sect has a lot of things to deal with, how can there be a waste of effort on Qian Youli, such a disciple who has no talent and no strength, if he dies, he will die.

Everyone couldn't figure out if they wanted to break their heads, it was Dumb who killed Qian Youli.

Dumb continued to pretend to be stupid and messed around in Ding Mao Courtyard.

Xia Yu still gets up at noon every day and goes to the woods to practice martial arts, and on this day, he was walking out of Ding Mao Courtyard when he saw a person running towards him.

It's Su Xue'er, I haven't seen her for a long time, and this little girl is getting more and more beautiful.

Xia Yu wanted to have a few jokes with Su Xue'er, but he found that Su Xue'er's expression was a little wrong, and she was very dignified.

"Brother Yu...... Out, out...... Something happened," Su Xue'er stopped in front of Xia Yu, bent over, panting.

Xia Yu said: "What's the matter, Qin Hao and Juniper were beaten again? Don't worry, say slowly." ”

Su Xue'er waved her hand and said, "It's not Qin Hao and Juniper, it's Uncle Xia." ”

Xia Yu was taken aback and asked, "What's wrong with my father?"

Su Xue'er said: "Uncle Xia escorted a batch of goods to Anyi City a few days ago, but met a group of robbers on the way, the robbers robbed the goods, and detained Uncle Xia, the Xia family is now negotiating with the robbers to redeem Uncle Xia. ”

Xia Yu was very angry and shouted: "There is such a big thing, and the family won't tell me!"

Xia Yu was in a hurry to go home, and Su Xue'er shouted: "Brother Yu, you wait for me, I'll go with you." ”

These days, Su Xue'er is not in the Vermilion Bird Sect, she is in Daliang City, so she only knew about the accident in the Xia family for the first time.

Xia Yu and Su Xue'er left the Vermilion Bird Sect and rushed back to the Xia family as quickly as possible.

In the hall of the Xia family, a group of people were frowning, sighing.

"The robbers of Black Wind Mountain want eight million taels of silver as a ransom, which is too much, bloody, and want to bite our Xia family to death. ”

"Bite to death and take out the ransom of eight million taels of silver, and our Xia family will be hollowed out. ”

"Let's talk to the robbers and press this ransom down. ”

"No, we have sent five people to negotiate with the robbers, and the robbers did not let go at all, and decided that it would not work if the eight million taels of silver were less than one tael. ”

"These robbers are really arrogant, have you told the city lord about this?"

"What's the use of telling the city lord? It's not been a day or two since the robbers on the Black Wind Mountain killed people and sold goods, and the city lord couldn't do anything about them. ”

"Are we really going to pay a ransom of eight million taels of silver?"

"In that case, the head of the family will be redeemed, but our Xia family will be finished. ”......

Everyone was talking nonsense, but they didn't have an idea, Xia Chengping sat in the corner, drinking tea, and there was a look of schadenfreude on his face.

Xia Chengen was kidnapped by robbers, and the happiest person in the Xia family was Xia Chengping.

After Xia Chengen became the head of the family, Xia Chengping became a marginal person of the Xia family, with no power, no benefits, and just half-dead every day.

Xia Chengping cursed Xia Chengen in his heart every day, hoping that Xia Chengen would die soon.

Unexpectedly, his curse was fulfilled so quickly, Xia Chengen was caught by the robbers, if the robbers killed Xia Chengen, his own brother Xia Chengyou might return to the Xia family again.

At that time, the Xia family will be their brother's world again.

Xia Chengping thought about beautiful things in his heart, his face bloomed with joy, he put down the teacup and said, "Everyone be quiet and listen to me." ”

Everyone quieted down and turned their heads to look at Xia Chengping, since Xia Chengen became the head of the family, when the family held a meeting, Xia Chengping had not said a word, and today he actually took the initiative to speak.

Xia Chengping said: "Eight million taels of silver, this is all the belongings of our Xia family." The Xia family has been working hard for generations, and it has been through several generations of hard work that they have accumulated such a family business. This family business does not belong to one person, but to all of our Xia family. ”

Everyone nodded, feeling that Xia Chengping was quite reasonable.

Xia Chengping continued: "We can't destroy the century-old foundation of the Xia family because of Xia Chengen alone. The robbers blackmailed us, we must not compromise, otherwise, with the first blackmail, there will be a second and third time, and our Xia family will never have peace. ”

One of the clansmen said, "But if we don't pay the ransom, what if they kill the head of the house?"

Xia Chengping looked righteous and awe-inspiring, and said: "What is the head of the family? The head of the family bears the burden of the entire family, in order to protect our Xia family, Xia Chengen is brave and righteous, that is glorious, he died well, and we will always remember him." ”

"But he is the head of the family after all," the clansmen hesitated.

Xia Chengping stood up, walked to the center of the hall, and said, "Who was born with the word 'head of the family' engraved on their forehead? Without Xia Chengen, we can still elect another head of the family." ”

Xia Chengping gestured, made a speech, and said in the vernacular: "The family can't be left without an owner for a day, now that Xia Chengen has been caught by robbers, he can no longer fulfill his duties as the head of the family, we should elect a new head of the family first." I propose to let my second brother Xia Chengyou be the head of the family, who agrees and who opposes?"

Xia Chengping's eyes were sweeping over the clansmen, and suddenly, with a bang, the door of the hall was kicked open.

Xia Chengping turned around and looked at it, and was shocked into a cold sweat, my mother, why did this living Yama come back?!

The person who kicked the door open was Xia Yu, and Xia Chengping's words were heard by Xia Yu outside the door.

Xia Yu rushed over with a kick, kicked Xia Chengping out, flew into the corner, hit his head against the wall, rolled his eyes, and passed out.

Xia Yu stood in the center of the hall, his eyes were like torches, and said: "My father, as the head of the family, was seized by robbers, as a clansman, you should consider how to rescue my father, instead of discussing the election of a new head of the family here!"

Just now, hearing Xia Chengping say that he was going to elect a new head of the family, many clansmen were moved, and now, seeing that Xia Yu, the fierce god and evil spirit, came back, these clansmen were terrified, thinking, fortunately, they didn't echo Xia Chengping just now, it's so dangerous, it's so dangerous.

An old man spoke, this old man is Xia Chengen's uncle, in terms of seniority, Xia Yu has to call him: "Uncle." ”

The old man said: "We also want to save the master of the family, but those robbers in Black Wind Mountain want a ransom of eight million taels of silver, and if we hand over these ransoms, our Xia family will collapse." ”

Uncle Zu spoke, and several clansmen next to him followed: "Yes, we can't afford to pay the ransom, go to save the family master by force, the robbers of the Black Wind Mountain are very fierce, and we can't beat them." ”

Xia Yu looked at the depressed Xia family members and said, "You don't have to worry about this matter, my father, I'll save it myself!"
