Chapter 18: Coming Relatives
In the foggy era of clouds and land, the sun and moon are dark, foreign demons are rampant, the immortals have fallen, the Daomen is closed, the cities are broken, and the land is vast and sparsely populated. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
Xiao Qiang began to suspect that he was really dying, he was not afraid of martial arts novels, but this kind of romance when he heard the name was terrifying.
"The head of the family, the world is in a period of decay, the content is eroded by real history, there are likely to be various strange situations and scenes, and most of the functions of the system are ineffective, please think again. ā
"The system is all fourth-order, and even the indigenous fantasy world that is about to end can't be uneven?" Xiao Qiang was furious, if there was no system assistance in such a terrifying world, he would not dare to go.
Alpha stopped talking, it knew that if it dared to refute, it would be kicked as a ball by this irascible master.
Xiao Qiang finally didn't have the courage to enter, so he resumed his old life, went to school every day, secretly integrated the pirate group and the stronghold of the Weihu Group, drank magic nutrients in the morning and evening, and let the system carry out physical catalysis in his sleep.
Time flies like a white horse, in a blink of an eye, it has passed a month, and it is the summer vacation of July.
Xiao Qiang's small body is twenty centimeters longer than four months ago when he first arrived, and he is one meter four tall, and his inner strength is no less than that of ordinary adults, and all parts of his body are ready to go.
Xiao Qiang sat on the bed and practiced "Cloud Dragon Nine Appearances" concentratingly, the wisps of qi spread all over his body with the operation of his magic aperture, unlike other cultivation systems, the Demon Dao Exercise is a distorted product of the combination of Dao and martial arts, and the extreme need for foreign objects, if practiced normally, practicing with Xiao Qiang's qualifications for 100 years may not be able to be successful, and he is doing it now purely idle and boring.
Knock knock!
There was a knock outside the door, and Xiao Qiang got off the ground and walked out.
Xu Po, who was excited, said with joy: "Young master, the old body received a letter from the eldest lady, she wants to go home to save her relatives!"
"Uh, okay!" Xiao Qiang didn't expect this kind of thing to happen, except for him and Xiao Qingshan, it seems that only this aunt is still alive, but this aunt was married to Qingzhou before he was born, and now his daughters are ten years old, he really doesn't know what to say.
"The eldest lady is a dignified and virtuous lady, and she was in a difficult situation in her husband's family at the beginning, but she still sent me back to take care of my lord more than two years ago. Now that the family is well-off, we will move to a new house again......" Xu Po said, gushing, her eyes lit up, obviously the arrival of the original owner greatly stimulated her, and she had fallen into a beautiful imagination of the future.
Xiao Qiang listened quietly, and learned from Xu Po's babbling words that this eldest lady of the Xiao family has a kind personality and excellent appearance, and was one of the top ten beauties recognized by the gods at that time in Yujing City fifteen years ago, and then married into the Wendao family in Qingzhou - Zeng family.
The heritage and prestige of this Zeng family are no worse than the Ram family of the Wensheng family that was destroyed by Old Man Xiao. But that was 500 years ago, 3,000 years ago, the rise of the hundred schools, Zengzi founded the academy and canonized, and the Zeng family was inherited as an old literary and Taoist family to 500 years ago, which clashed with the dynasty at that time.
The eleventh emperor of the Heng Dynasty has been passed down to Xiao Qiang's awakening for three hundred years, before which was the period of a hundred years of chaos, and before that was another unified dynasty - the Duan Dynasty.
The Duan Dynasty arose thousands of years ago, when the unknown empress, the Zhou Dynasty established by the ancestor of the Shenshui Palace perished, and the Duan Dynasty came into being.
The first 400 years of the dynasty were not much different from many of the previous dynasties, but the 600-year-old airships were so sophisticated that they could sail long distances, leading to the beginning of the Age of Sail.
The Duan Dynasty relied on constantly plundering the wealth of the ocean island country, and it was even remnant in the face of various uprisings, and a large number of ships full of gold and silver treasures, like mountains, made Yunlu lose a group of rebel leaders, and the outer regions had a group of One Piece kings.
Five hundred years ago, when it came to the Dragon Boat Festival Emperor, who had the capital of a rare emperor, there was a hidden trend of prosperity. In order to cross the threshold of the rise and fall of chaos, the Dragon Boat Festival Emperor opened the Dragon Boat Festival New Deal, unlike Emperor Hengwu, he was only in power for 20 years and was only 40 years old, which led to a series of problems.
What the Zeng family encountered was the problem of the Queen Mother, and the Dragon Boat Emperor's mother was not dead, and she took the lead in opposing the New Deal. Emperor Hengwu dared to cut the queen and concubine, and he could also name the child "Aotian" Mingzhi, but Emperor Dragon Boat Festival did not dare to cut his mother.
The Zeng family, which took "filial piety" as the foundation of the family and school, suddenly became Sparta, and the first family of Wendao, who was at the top of the Wenchen, encountered an unsolvable situation, between the strong emperor and the equally strong queen mother, the Zeng family was in the center of the whirlpool......
Since then, the Zeng family has suddenly declined, and the family has almost died. The remnants of the people are divided into two veins, one is based on the academy, the other is based on filial piety, and the two veins have escaped a catastrophe in the battle of the Daomen of the dynasty that lasted for sixty years and the hundred years of chaos that followed. Although Zeng Xiao's lineage only came out of Confucianism, he also became a family of literature and Taoism, and was a wealthy family in Donglai County, Qingzhou.
Xiao Qiang's aunt Xiao Qingjian, who is the eldest daughter-in-law of Zeng Xiao, was pitifully innocent by Xiao Qingshan, became a victim, was hostile to the locals, and was isolated by her own family. If it weren't for the news that Xiao Qingshan had become a living dead, the Zeng family, who was based on filial piety, would have been unable to go home and see each other in this life.
"In that case, I'll go and see the new house and arrange a room for her. Xiao Qiang took the initiative to say, this aunt seems to be a stunning beauty, and she has been isolated for many years, so his relatives naturally want to comfort her, hehehehe......
The newly built Stone Town with Stone Town as the center is a series layout, with three town divisions, the new city area in the north that was flattened by large ships, the old city with the town center and the airport as the core, and the port city area with the coastline in the south. The northern district has a lot of vacant land and huge development potential, and is now being built on a large scale; the central district is a plain area, and the main producing area of grain crops used to be a stone town, but now it has been transformed into a commercial city, and the central district has begun to transform into a commercial area with every inch of land; the shallow sea fishing area in the southern district, which is 30 miles away from the central district, is connected with the port of sea transportation, and the development is estimated to take a long time.
Of course, Xiao Qiang's newly built mansion will not go to the desolate north and south districts, he asked the Weihu group to choose a residential area not far from the government and start demolishing and building, twenty acres of land, his house occupies two acres, and the remaining eighteen acres are surrounded, and various facilities will be built secretly to protect themselves in the future.
The house composed of seven triple courtyards is Xiao Qiang's new home, indicating that it is just a house of an ordinary wealthy family, which is far worse than the twelve major houses of the Cheng family, but there are extremely expensive materials available inside, which are worth hundreds of gold. There is no difference between the exterior walls, roofs and floor tiles on the surface, but they are all made of black steel from the outside world, which not only has the functions of sound insulation and earthquake resistance, but also has the defense power is perverted. Now they are all brought by Xiao Qiang to the Weihu Regiment, and a group of experts have been invited to design the optimal defense structure.
Whether flying or digging into the ground, whether it is front or side back, all take into account. But this still did not satisfy Xiao Qiang, the unremitting pursuit of excellence, and the persistent pursuit of perfection is his mentality. He also used the transmission note to let the team dig into the ground, and make an underground palace no less than the above-ground residence to be satisfied, and now the new mansion can be called an attack, retreat and defend, and the upper can ask for help and the lower can escape.
This time, in order to welcome the arrival of the aunt, he asked the construction team to dig out a five-zhang square bath in the room, and then thought about it and felt that it was too big, which was not conducive to mutual understanding and comfort of relatives, so he shrunk it to half a zhang, and he was satisfied.
Xiao Qiang proudly came back from the new house under construction, walking slowly along the street where the stone town was under construction, the whole block was noisy and noisy, and the pedestrians passing by were like him, with a happy expression on their faces, Stone Town has been changing and developing at a rapid pace for more than a month, and it is estimated that by next year, it will really become an urban area.
"Wow!"
A dog barking came from the left-hand side. Xiao Qiang looked sideways, ten steps away, a figure wearing a large cloth cloak was stopped by a yellow dog carried by a walking old man barking wildly, and found that Xiao Qiang noticed him and quickly turned around to merge into the flow of people.
Xiao Qiang's body was cold, his whole body was stiff, the smugness in his heart disappeared, and his strengthened eyes clearly saw a cold light under the cloak when this person turned around. The dog should have felt this person's killing intent and reacted and barked, as for who it was targeting, Xiao Qiang didn't dare to bet that the other party's target was someone else.
"Nima! The two Wuzun guards that the uncle invited with a lot of money. Xiao Qiang was frightened in his heart and found that there was no one to protect him anymore.
Cautiously returning home that day, he opened the communication charm and contacted Scarface, who was in charge of the Tiger Regiment, and the two found that the master bodyguard who had been invited for a lot of money had not been contacted for three days. Although Scarface, the martial artist, was ready to personally bring someone over to protect him, Xiao Qiang still refused, he didn't want to make his contact with the Weihu Group public, and even the bodyguards were secretly invited anonymously through the black market, and the Weihu Group was his last retreat.
After this incident, Xiao Qiang finally made up his mind to go to the mirage dream world and obtain the lost texts that opened the inheritance of the Brahma beads. The population environment after the transformation of Stone Town into Stone Town has seriously threatened his safety, and the Xiao family has been relegated to this place and cannot move away at all, so the only way to do so is to take the initiative and strengthen their own strength.
He is ready to start from the underworld, manpower can be contacted by relying on the connections of the Tiger Regiment, the Tiger Regiment is doing the reselling of foreign beasts and medicinal herb business, the outer region is full of dangers, all kinds of dangerous places and fierce beasts emerge in an endless stream, can do this aspect of trading, the strength of the Tiger Regiment can be imagined, plus between the outer regions and the clouds and land, there are many people who have met the knife and licked the blood. What's more, Xiao Qiang still has the Spring Breeze Pit and the system in his hands, and there is no big problem with loyalty and subordinate control.
But the financial resources are far from enough, whether it is to make friends with the umbrella above or to operate, it takes a lot of financial resources, and the wealth in the Brahma beads is no longer dispensable, but a matter of life and death.
A hidden spot in Stone Town.
"His subordinates have personally warned Xiao Ritian, presumably he will not be stupid anymore. The male voice said.
"There are too many people who want to kill him, we must ensure his safety, and send him to hell personally when the little master arrives!" said the old man's voice.
Another hidden spot.
"Hmph! Those fools hold each other back, and no one can get their hands on it, but it's cheap. A fierce voice said, "Is Xiao Qingchen ready over there?"
"Her Highness is on the side, foolproof, they will be here in three days. ā
"Huh...... The safety of the Xiao family must be guaranteed before they arrive, and all the forces that dare to make a move will be wiped out! The Huangquan Diagram, the supreme treasure of this sect, was cursed by the emperor before his death, and only the desperate qi of the Xiao family's strong blood can be resolved. As the only heir of the Great Emperor, this Demon Venerable wants to let this aunt and nephew taste all the despair, and then let the Xiao family be completely discredited, and they will never be able to turn over, so as to repay the hatred of my primordial demon palace for destroying the door!"
The newly built castle in Stone Town.
"That little guy is confused, and he doesn't know the danger yet. ā
"Shenshui Palace only verbally protected, and didn't even mention revenge, and the guardian powerhouse was not dispatched, obviously just coping with things. ā
"The two Wu Zun beside him seem to be people from the Guixu faction, but they suddenly left three days ago, and the Guixu faction must have given up on him. ā
"The Confucian of the Cheng family was out of the house, and suddenly fell ill and did not return, and invited a bunch of celebrities to testify with great fanfare, hehe...... This doll is so miserable."
"Shhhhh ā
Outside the ya, a woman who was about to come in trembled when she heard this, she was covered by a black gauze and black robe, covering her whole body, and only a pair of starry eyes showed pity and helplessness, which made people feel inexplicably heartbroken.
At the same time, several waves of people in the carriages, green buildings, merchant ships and other places and facilities were also discussing how to take revenge on the blood hatred, and at the other end of the Stone City Teleportation Array, there were more than a dozen waves of people ready to attack.
