The first person sitting on the high platform of the hall is the previous head of the Nangong family, Nangong Xiao, who looks to be more than seventy years old, but in fact has lived for more than three hundred years. The family has developed to this point, if it weren't for the devastating blow, he planned to stay in retreat, but now he was out of the customs ahead of schedule, and when he knew the reason, he couldn't wait to knock these useless descendants to death one by one.
Nangong Xiao's old face was bruised, he had been sitting for a long time, and he had never said a word.
The next person sitting at the head is the current head of the family, that is, Nangong Xiao's eldest son Nangong Zhan, he also chose to retreat because his cultivation was about to break through, plus his wife is a very capable person, the Nangong family will only grow stronger in the future, he didn't expect that he would also get out of the customs in advance, fortunately, Xiuwei was not damaged, but his face was not much better than that of his father.
Further down are the core members of the family, the entire hall is filled with a sense of slaughter, everyone bows their heads, their bodies tremble slightly, they didn't expect that the previous head of the family, who had not been seen for a long time, would go out of the customs in advance at this time.
But fortunately, if the chaotic situation at that time was not for the timely intervention of the head of the family, I am afraid that the entire family would also set off a bloody storm.
I don't know how long it took, the wrinkles on Nangong Xiao's face finally stretched out a little, he glanced at the people below, one by one, their heads were bowed, and they didn't have the demeanor of a child of a big family, and they slapped the chair angrily, and said angrily: "Quietly, what do you look like now, is the foundation that the old man has worked so hard to build be destroyed in your hands!"
Nangong Zhan stood up at this time and said, "Dad, your old man is angry, this matter is really weird, we still have to think long-term, catch that thief first." ”
Nangong Xiao glared at his son and said, "And you, what did you marry and go home, the family has been in a miasma these days, if I don't come out again, people who have opinions about her won't be killed!"
Nangong Zhan said with a bitter face: "Dad, Yuling has been locked up, I think she also knows her mistake, after all, she is also for the good of the family, I will make her admit her mistake in this matter, and ask Dad to calm his anger." ”
Nangong Xiao snorted coldly and said, "Don't intercede for her, she actually dares to kill her own family, and she won't rebel in the future?" I have already decided, this matter is over, and I will drive her out of Nangong family." ”
Nangong Zhan still wanted to intercede, but when he saw his father's eyes, he immediately didn't dare to say a word, he knew that his father's temper and the things he decided could not be changed, and it was this rigorous attitude that created the prosperity of the family today. He sighed and sat down helplessly, actually scolding his wife in his heart, but he still planned to wait for his father to be angry, even if he knelt down and pleaded, he couldn't let his wife be kicked out.
Nangong Xiao said at this time: "This kind of thing happened in the family, do you all have any good suggestions, please refer to it when you say it." ”
The people below began to talk in a whisper, but no one dared to stand up, and the discussion continued for a long time, and finally the hall became quiet again.
Nangong Xiao looked at these people, and couldn't wait to knock them to death one by one now, this is the Nangong family, look at their sad faces now, which makes people angry when they see it, and when they see that no one has spoken, they said, "Is Chi'er back now?"
Nangong Zhan said: "It is estimated that it will take a few days. ”
Nangong Xiao pointed to everyone present: "Today is the first and last time, next time let me see you like this, don't blame me for not recognizing my six relatives, let's disperse!"
At this moment when Nangong Xiao was losing his temper at everyone, a young monk came to the dungeon at this time, and several guards saw him, immediately opened the cell door, and stood aside, showing great respect for this young man. The young monk smiled politely at the guards, and then walked into the prison. The dungeon of Nangong's house was very deep, and the more he walked down the spiral steps, the more cold and damp he felt, and the young man's face showed a trace of unbearability, so he quickened his pace.
Although the dungeon was cold and damp, it was very bright here, because the whole dungeon was lit by a large glowing stone, and after finally walking the steps, rows of separate cells appeared in front of the young man, and the iron door of the cell was composed of very thick iron rods, which were difficult for ordinary monks to break.
There was no one in the row of cells in front of him, the young man walked forward directly, and after walking for a while, he turned his head and saw the various torture instruments hanging on the wall, and there were still black blood stains accumulated over the years on a stone platform, he frowned, looking very disgusted with these things, and then walked towards the inner without looking at it.
There is also a cell in the innermost, there are two people locked up in it at this time, it is the eldest lady of the Nangong family and her second son Nangong Fei, both of them are shrinking in the corner at the moment, although there is no scar on the body, but being locked in this kind of invisible underground is tantamount to the most painful torment and torture for the mother and son, and at the same time they don't know if they can get out, they know the means of the previous head of the family, and it can be said that the six relatives do not recognize it, the two of them are in a trance at the moment, and they don't know what they are thinking......
A gentle sound of footsteps broke the calm here, and the mother and son saw a young man standing outside the cell, and their originally gloomy faces suddenly seemed to see hope, and the eldest lady immediately ran to the front of the cell, grabbed the iron rod and said: "Chi'er, you are finally back, are you here to save your mother, I know that you are usually the most filial." Nangong Fei also stepped aside and said, "Big brother, you're back, great, mother, we're saved." ”
Nangong Chi saw his mother and younger brother, the expression on his face did not change, he just booed at the two of them, and said: "Mother, second brother, I am back, you have suffered, I heard that something happened in the family, and the sword flew back overnight, I want to know, what happened at home?"
The eldest lady and Nangong Fei glanced at each other, and then told everything that happened during this time, and after finishing speaking, she almost cried: "Chi'er, you must save us out, this time my mother knows that it is wrong." ”
Nangong Chi looked embarrassed at this time, and said: "It's not that the child doesn't want to rescue you and your brother, it's just that this time Grandpa personally made a cruel word, and he will execute the two of you tomorrow." ”
As soon as these words came out, the faces of the eldest lady and Nangong Fei changed greatly, and they became bloodless, and their faces were terrified, they didn't expect that they were afraid of something.
The eldest lady cried at this time: "Why, isn't it just to kill a few family members, what's the big deal, my mother has already known that she is wrong, why does your grandfather still treat our mother and son like this, even his most beloved grandson has to be killed!"
Nangong Fei was also frightened at this time: "Big brother, please, help me and my mother, grandpa has always valued you the most, as long as you intercede for us, I believe grandpa will definitely change his attention." ”
Nangong Chi thought for a while and said, "Mother, second brother, I don't want to watch you die, I want to help you, you have to tell me the truth, can you swear, there is not a single lie in what you said." ”
The eldest lady immediately said: "Chi'er, don't you even believe your mother, your mother really didn't say a wrong word, you have to believe your mother." ”
Nangong Fei said: "Big brother, what my mother said is true, if you don't believe it, you can ask the people in the family, they can all testify." ”
Nangong Chi paid attention to the expressions of the two, and after knowing that they were not lying, he said, "Okay, mother, second brother, you wait for my news, I'll go and beg grandpa now." ”
The people in the hall had just gotten up and were about to leave at this time, when Nangong Chi appeared at the door, and he said at this time: "Everyone, please wait a minute, I have something to say." ”
When Nangong Xiao saw his grandson coming back, a smile finally appeared on his face, and he said, "Chi'er, you came back so soon, come in." ”
Nangong Zhan was puzzled at this time: "Didn't you say that it would take a few days to get home?"
Nangong Chi walked to the center of the hall, said hello to his father, and then said hello to everyone, knelt down directly above, and said, "Grandpa, I'm back, grandpa is fine, there is no harm in getting out of the customs in advance." ”
Nangong Xiao smiled: "Don't get in the way, don't get in the way, get up, say whatever you want." ”
Nangong Chi said at this time: "I have already heard from my mother about the things at home, and I also ask my grandfather to forgive my sins, I went to the dungeon before." ”
Nangong Xiao said: "It's okay, it's okay for my son to go to see his mother, you have been delicate and flexible since you were a child, did you find anything?"
Nangong Chi nodded and said: "That's true, grandpa, father, everyone, I promise here that none of what my mother and second brother said is false, and please make a clear judgment, now I will talk about my findings." ”
At that moment, after everyone exchanged their heads and ears for a while, they all quieted down and listened carefully, Nangong Xiao looked at his grandson, his face was full of appreciation.
Nangong Chi said: " The stone wall at home has always disappeared for no reason these days, and it appears for no reason, it is indeed an incredible thing, I also went to the secret room to see, and did not find any clues, it can be said that the stone wall did disappear out of thin air, although so, but I believe that this matter is absolutely man-made, as for the method is the key, but unfortunately I don't know what the specific method is, but I learned from my mother's mouth that she had entrusted the master of Wanye Gate to help investigate this matter, but not long ago after the stone wall suddenly returned to the secret room, the person also disappeared, what happened after that, as everyone saw。 ”
Nangong Zhan asked at this time: "But now that person hasn't been found, right?"
Nangong Chi said: "Actually, it doesn't matter if you can find it or not, I think, he should be dead." ”
Nangong Xiao and everyone were moved, and said, "How can you tell that person is dead, maybe it's hidden." ”
Nangong Chi said at this time: "No, that person is indeed dead, if he doesn't die, I'm afraid some clues will be exposed, I think so." ”
Nangong Zhan said: "But you think so, is there any reason?"
Nangong Chi said: "Not long ago, the family launched several assassination operations, killing some sect families, including Wanye Gate, but I want to ask, have you really killed them all?"
Nangong Xiao knew what Sun Tzu's words must mean, and asked, "What do you want to say?"
Nangong Chi said: "We can think like this, did we inadvertently offend someone, causing people to hold grudges, this series of things is probably done by that person." ”
Nangong Xiao said: "You mean to say, just find out what Nangong family may have offended recently?"
Nangong Chi nodded and said, "Yes, in fact, everyone always thinks in their minds that it must be a certain sect or family that can make a move against the Nangong family, but if it is just one person, it is not impossible for a person to do such a thing because of hatred or because of other purposes." ”
Nangong Xiao looked serious at the moment, and said, "Check, check it carefully for me, don't let anyone go!"
