In the underground secret room of the Chen family in Ningzhou, Chen Xiangyuan, who was arrogant and domineering in front of others, bowed down at this moment, looking at the old man in front of him, if ordinary people saw this situation, they must be curious about who the old man in front of him was, and he could have such an identity and status to make Chen Xiangyuan grovel.

The old man in front of him was picking up a book and looking at it alone, he ignored Chen Xiangyuan waiting underneath until he felt that the time had come, he put down the book, looked at Chen Xiangyuan, and said unhurriedly: "The batch of things that you prepared before, I didn't expect someone to get it halfway, and our plan was planned again." In this world, there is always such a danger. If you can't act carefully, then the Chen family in Ningzhou will always be destroyed in your hands. Do you know that the big man is about to come to Ningzhou City, if the Li family in Ningzhou can't be solved before that, then the big man hesitates a little, I'm afraid he will have to blame us, saying that it is not good, then the responsibility will be greater. In these days, you don't want to run around, and you can solve this matter as a big deal. ”

When Chen Xiangyuan heard the old man speak, he lifted his body up and said very respectfully: "Master, I don't know anything. Why did that big man in Huzhou have to let the Li family in Ningzhou disappear? I thought it was your idea to let the Li family disappear in Ningzhou, so that before the big man arrived, if he wanted to find someone to cooperate with in Ningzhou, he had no choice but our Chen family in Ningzhou, and later I learned that the big man wanted the Li family in Ningzhou to disappear in this world. ”

The old man smiled: "It's not too late for you to know now! Do you know that in Huzhou, that big man is a figure with a head and a face, as long as the business is big enough, our family can't eat, so we have to share some with other families." What's more, the Li family in Ningzhou has been entrenched here for decades, and how can we take the initiative to eliminate him unless we are forced to do so? The state guard does not want to see a situation in which one family dominates, and sometimes maintaining the status quo is the safest way. After all, after this battle, although our Ningzhou Chen family finally gained a firm foothold in Ningzhou, some hidden strengths were also highlighted. If we can't go further, we will definitely become the target of public criticism, and when the time comes, the state guard will not be able to protect us, and it will be difficult for us to leave traces in Ningzhou City. But the big man from Huzhou didn't know why he had something to do with the Li family in Ningzhou, just because of some hidden things, he couldn't do it himself, otherwise he would leave clues, and he would definitely be held accountable by the state hall of Longguo. You remember, to survive in the country of Long, unlike other small princes, you have to have a good relationship with the temple, otherwise if you are not careful, all your efforts will be in vain. You have followed me for decades and know how I behave, what you have done this time is really inappropriate. Not to mention anything else, that batch of things hasn't arrived yet, how can you reassure me?"

Hearing that the master blamed himself, Chen Xiangyuan sweated a little profusely on his head, and his bloated body began to tremble, in Ningzhou City, Chen Xiangyuan did not respect the state guard and others from the bottom of his heart, even if it was his father, Chen Xiangyuan did not feel that there was anything prominent, but for the master in front of him, Chen Xiangyuan respected it. Because more than ten years ago, the Li family in Ningzhou was still the most backward one among the four major families in Ningzhou. It wasn't until the arrival of the old man in front of him that he encroached on the sphere of influence of other families step by step, and operated with all his heart step by step, which brought the Chen family in Ningzhou to such a point. Chen Xiangyuan knew that as long as this old man was in one day, the Chen family in Ningzhou would be able to prosper for one day. Therefore, for the master in front of him, Chen Xiangyuan admired it from the bottom of his heart. For some decisions that seemed to be not right at the time, when I reflected on it later, I felt that it was very reasonable.

Chen Xiangyuan wiped his cold sweat, saluted in front of him and said: "Master rest assured, I have already made arrangements, the Yin slave will arrive in Ningzhou City with that batch of things in the next few days, and I have already arranged for the others to enter the city, and when the time comes, I will definitely be able to drive the Li family in Ningzhou out of this place." The bandits of the martial arts rivers and lakes, I have also contacted them, as long as there are fish that have slipped through the net in the Li family in Ningzhou at that time, they will definitely be able to kill them all, so that they will have no descendants in the world. ”

Hearing that Chen Xiangyuan asked Yin Nu to escort the goods, the old man in front of him shook his head: "You, the more anxious you are, the easier it is to get things done." The Yin Slave is your companion and can help you stop the calamity. If he is injured or dies outside, won't all my ten years of genius and earth treasure be in vain? There will be brave men under the heavy reward, why don't you send some money to those bandits in the martial arts rivers and lakes to transport it, and when the time comes, say hello to the guards guarding the city, things are also very safe. If you let the Yin slave go, hey, it's really not appropriate. ”

Chen Xiangyuan hurriedly replied: "Master, don't be angry, the Yin slave has recovered now, and no one in Ningzhou City will know his whereabouts." Moreover, in recent days, there have been more and more people in the martial arts rivers and lakes in Ningzhou City, thinking that it is more prudent to let the Yin slave escort this thing. As for the rest, you don't have to worry about it, master. ”

The old man sighed: "I hope that's the case." By the way, you've decided when it's time to do it, and you're ready to go. There are too many situations in this shop, and one of them is spread out carelessly, and the capital knows about it, and we have no way to save ourselves at that time. There is no truth in this world, they are all intrigues and deceitful people. ”

Chen Xiangyuan may have felt a little tired from standing, so he found the nearest chair and sat down. In front of the most mysterious old man in Ningzhou City, he didn't dare to relax in the slightest. In Ningzhou City, people only know that Chen Xiangyuan has a master, but they never know where they are, thinking that he does not live in Ningzhou City at all, and they never expect to live with them day and night.

Chen Xiangyuan patted his chest and said, "Master, don't worry about this." The descendants of our family, except for the reliable ones. I didn't invite any of the others. And those bandits in the martial arts rivers and lakes, I have already given enough silver taels, and when the matter is completed, they will definitely fly away and fly away, and they will not make trouble for us. In a few days, it will be the birthday of the Li family in Ningzhou, and at that time, not only the main line of the Li family in Ningzhou, but even some side branches will rush over to celebrate. And as before, the day of the clan celebration was not in Ningzhou City, but at the place where the Li family in Ningzhou first settled at that time, twenty miles west of Ningzhou City, where it is still sparsely populated. Except for some descendants of the Li family in Ningzhou who take care of the ancestral house, there are not usually a few people. It is there to do it, I believe that the day of the Li family's celebration in Ningzhou is the day of their annihilation. When the time comes, we will be able to win over the big man's account. And our Chen family in Ningzhou will eventually step out of Ningzhou City and begin to march to Huzhou and other places, becoming a big family in the Long Kingdom, which is really just around the corner. ”

The old man knocked on Chen Xiangyuan and signaled him not to take such a big breath: "The rice must be eaten one bite at a time, and the road must be taken step by step." Sometimes eating too fast will grab your throat, and walking too fast will hurt your muscles and bones. Now our top priority is to replace the position of the Li family in Ningzhou, and at other times, we have to think long-term, and we are not in a hurry at all. We are not familiar with Huzhou and other places, and we must find someone to rely on in the state hall of Longguo, otherwise it will be unreliable after all. ”

Chen Xiangyuan poured himself a glass of wine, and then drank it all and said: "In a few years, it will be time to establish the prince, so it is better to take advantage of this and bet on it in advance." By then, the results have already come out, and it will be no fun for us to climb on. ”

The old man had his own considerations, and he did not agree with Chen Xiangyuan's opinion: "When you are forced to do so, you will definitely not express your attitude casually, you are not representing yourself, but the entire Chen family in Ningzhou." Don't just take care of your own emotions in everything, but focus on your own interests. By the way, when I was just resting in the teahouse opposite, I met a particularly interesting young man, I have studied the art of people, this young man will become a great weapon in the future, but I don't know if he came to Ningzhou City for a short time, or he still stayed in Ningzhou City for a long time, I will give you his portrait, if you find him, quickly inform me. I'm old now, I have to make a plan, otherwise if I leave, your Ningzhou Chen family will panic. ”

Hearing that it was a young man, Chen Xiangyuan began to be alert, and suddenly thought of what his subordinates had to report, and after thinking for a long time, he still said what he heard: "Master, I killed Li Xiuyan in a place in Qingzhou City before, which is called Guan Shankou. I didn't expect Mr. Zuo to blow up his natal thing and seriously injured the Yin slave, so in desperation, I retreated with the people of the Chen family in Ningzhou. However, I heard that after we left, two martial arts cultivators from the Gathering Spirit Realm came out again, and at this time, Li Xiuyan was ready to fight to the death, and he didn't expect that a talisman came from nowhere, and he hung in front of the two martial arts cultivators in a daze. The two didn't believe in evil, so they still gave it a try, but they didn't expect Fu Seal to move at all, and almost left the two of them at Guanshan Pass. Today, my subordinates reported that Li Xiuyan met a young man in a tailor's shop, and when he opened his mouth, his voice was very similar to the person who helped him at Guanshankou that day, so the whole street went crazy, and even hunted for it began to be dispatched to help the Li family in Ningzhou to find it together, of course, this silver is not low. I also sent people to look for it, but there was no clue. You said that you met a young man in the teahouse opposite us, and you said, "Could this be the same person?" Is there really such a coincidence in the world? If so, I will quickly find this young man. ”

After the old man heard the Fu Seal, his stretched brows began to wrinkle. Chen Xiangyuan rarely saw the master frowning, and there should be something big happening soon. Sure enough, I saw that the old man immediately showed the momentum of a person in a high position, and said to Chen Xiangyuan: "Help Li Xiuyan, but Li Xiuyan didn't recognize him, which means that the two of them don't know each other." He even helped at Guan Shankou, but it was only because it was the practice field of Master Fu Seal, so he took action to drive the two martial arts cultivators away, so that they would not mistake their own cultivation. It seems that we still have a chance to meet this Fu Seal Master. One person, one sect, you may not know the power of this talisman, but I was fortunate enough to meet it once, I will never forget it in my life, pass on my order, first go to Haosheng to prepare for the celebration of the Li family in Ningzhou, and then release some trustworthy good hands and find this person for me. ”

It was the first time Chen Xiangyuan heard the master's stern tone, and the wine in the cup in his hand was scattered all over the ground. I saw that he immediately got up, saluted the old man, and then slowly withdrew from the secret room. Seeing that there was no one around, the old man began to light sandalwood, and the whole secret room was full of smoke, and he couldn't see anyone here. The old man said in the smoke: "A hundred years of rise and fall, here in one move." I don't know if I will be able to survive this fateful day. Hey, I've been in the Chen family in Ningzhou for so long, only by killing the people of the Li family in Ningzhou can I accomplish my calamity, this big game of chess, I don't know if it can be finally realized? ”

......

Today's Ningzhou Li family is lively, perhaps the day of the clan celebration is approaching, and the entire Ningzhou Li family is full of lights, changing the haze of the past. Even Old Lady Li got up from the bed and was pushed into the hall by Li Xiuyan to appear, I don't know if it was a return to the light, or if it was really recovered. However, for the people of the Li family in Ningzhou, all this is enough. Where Mrs. Li is, it is a safe place. Although the other three families in Ningzhou have been encroaching on the strength of their own families step by step in recent days, as long as Mrs. Li recovers his body and strategizes, he will definitely snatch back the territory and regain the glory of the past. So all those Ningzhou's in-laws crowded at the door of the hall, wanting to see if Mrs. Li was really as others said, and had recovered to seventy or eighty.

At this time, Li Xiuyan pushed Mrs. Li under the eaves, Steward Huang also stood next to him, and Mr. Zuo sat weakly, there were only four people in this space, and now even Mr. Zuo could get out of bed, which seemed to indicate that the Li family in Ningzhou would also recover and fight to the death with the Chen family in Ningzhou.

Li Xiuyan said in a low voice: "Master, let me tell you something, you must remember not to be excited. ”。

Old lady Li's face has appeared a lot of dark spots, this is irreversible old decay marks, at this time he is old Longzhong, at Li Xiuyan smiled at Li Xiuyan: "In my life, what has not happened? At my age, even life and death have been looked down, what can make me excited? Although you say it, it doesn't hurt to say it." ”

Li Xiuyan thought about it, and said in a soothing tone as much as possible: "Mr. Zuo, do you remember that day we were blocked by two cultivators of the Martial Dao Jianghu of the Spirit Gathering Realm at Guanshan Pass, and just when we thought we would confess here today, two people came to the rescue?"
