Chapter 005: The Family Comes, Father Killed?
"Hey, where did you two go, I've been looking for you all afternoon. When Kang Xuan saw the two of them, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief and said.
"Uncle Kang Xuan, is there anything wrong with looking for us in such a hurry?" Zhu Shuai immediately asked.
"This afternoon, two guests came to the group, saying that they were the envoys of your Zhu family, and they wanted to see your father by name, I don't know anything about your Zhu family, so I had to look for you everywhere. They've been waiting in the council chamber for quite some time. Kang Xuan pointed to the council chamber and said.
The envoy of the Zhu family?
Zhu Shuai couldn't help but be stunned.
Since I have my memory, I have been living in this Xiumu City, and I don't know anything about the Zhu family, and I have never heard my father mention it.
Now that a Zhu family suddenly appeared, Zhu Shuai actually felt a little at a loss.
Following Kang Xuan to the conference hall, Zhu Shuai saw the two so-called family envoys.
One of the two is longer and the other is less. The elder looked to be in his early forties, with a capable face, but gray hair had already appeared on his head. The young one was about twenty, and his face was slightly childish.
Both of them were wearing wide gray robes, looking steady and temperamental. On the chest of the gray robe, there is an embroidered "Zhu" character like a dragon flying and a phoenix dancing, sonorous and powerful. The cuffs of the gray robe are embroidered with a simple staff pattern, which is very solemn.
Both of them were closing their eyes to recuperate, but judging from the momentum that slowly emanated from the elder's body, this person's strength would definitely not be lower than that of his father.
This person is a master of the third stage of magician or above!
And the strength of those young people should not be underestimated!
When Zhu Shuai looked at the two, the two also opened their eyes and looked directly at Zhu Shuai.
"Two, this is our young leader, Zhu Shuai!" Kang Xuan pointed at Zhu Shuai and said kindly.
"Oh?" the two of them raised their eyebrows, but they were a little disappointed.
And the young man, perhaps because he waited for a while, said with some displeasure: "How can it still be the strength of the power of the five elements, even the mage has not reached it." What has Zhu Qing done all these years, is this what he has achieved over the years?"
Hearing his words, Zhu Shuai felt a little angry in his heart.
For so many years, Zhu Shuai has remembered all how his father has worried about himself. He can tolerate the cynicism of others, but he can't stand the slightest hint that his father is not.
Zhu Shuai's face, which was still a little childish, actually became resolute, looked at the young man and said, "What are you, what qualifications do you have to accuse my father here!"
"Hmph!" the young man snorted coldly, and said with some disdain, "I am your cousin." Sure enough, if you have a father and a son, the strength of the power of the five elements dares to be so arrogant, if you are in the family, you will definitely suffer from the clan rules! It is no different from your useless father!"
"Really?" Zhu Shuai's eyes narrowed slightly. Since you're welcome, don't blame me.
"Uncle Kang Xuan, in this case, our small temple can't accommodate these two big Buddhas, let's send them off!" Zhu Shuai waved his sleeves and turned around to leave. That tone is unquestionable.
"Presumptuous!" Hearing Zhu Shuai's words, the young man was furious, and the slightly yellow fire element instantly poured out from his body.
"Rong'er, Hugh is rude!" At this moment, the old man spoke. And the young man called Rong'er also had to withdraw the fire element into his body.
"Hehe, Zhu Shuai's little nephew, Zhu Rongshang is still young and doesn't understand the world, don't worry about him. Old man Zhu Ming, in terms of seniority, can be regarded as your uncle!"
"If you're young, I guess I'm younger. is still so unreasonable when he goes out, and he doesn't have a good education when he wants to come to the house. Okay, for the sake of Uncle Zhu Ming's face, I won't continue to dwell on this matter, I don't know what Uncle Zhu Ming's sudden visit is. Zhu Shuai looked directly at Zhu Ming and said.
"Hehe!" Listening to Zhu Shuai's words, Zhu Ming smiled.
This Zhu Rong has been regarded as a treasure by the clan since he was a child, when has he been pointed out like this. Unexpectedly, he was counted by Zhu Shuai today, if this is spread, it will make many people laugh at the clan.
"A year later, it will be the day of the old patriarch's sixtieth birthday, and according to the family code, it will also be the day of the election of a new patriarch. According to the tradition of my Zhu family since ancient times, all the children of the Zhu family must go back to pay their respects and participate in elections. I hope you and your father will be able to go back by then. Zhu Ming said.
Zhu Shuai's brows couldn't help frowning.
I don't know anything about the Zhu family at all, and now that a Zhu family suddenly appears, Zhu Shuai really doesn't know how to deal with it.
If he really has something to do with the Zhu family, why did his father leave the Zhu family and come here to establish this mercenary group. And for so many years, why has my father never been in contact with the Zhu family, and has never mentioned it to himself?
Zhu Shuai felt that this matter was beyond his comprehension, so he shook his head and said, "Uncle Zhu Ming, I don't care about this matter, let's wait for my father to come back." My father has been gone for almost a month, and if the forecast is correct, he will be back in the next day or two. ”
"This..." Zhu Ming was embarrassed, thought for a while, and then took out a token from his arms, handed it to Zhu Shuai's hand, and said: "We still have a task to do, so it's inconvenient to stay here for a long time, so let's wait for your father to come back, you will give him this token, I believe he will understand." ”
"We have other things to do, so we'll take our leave. After speaking, he took Zhu Rong and got up to leave.
Before leaving, Zhu Ming turned around again and said hesitantly: "If your father refuses to come, I hope you can persuade him, even if it is for your mother!"
After speaking, Zhu Ming did not stop and left the mercenary group.
However, his words made Zhu Shuai completely stunned.
Mother! I haven't seen my mother since I was a child, but now I finally have some news.
It seems that this Zhu family still has to go there.
Thinking excitedly, after Zhu Shuai said goodbye to Kang Xuan and Jing'er, he quickly returned to his bedroom and carefully pressed the token under the pillow.
Finally news of my mother!
After sorting out his mood, Zhu Shuai quickly recovered. No matter what happens in the future, do you have to go on with your life now?
After humming a few words in his mouth, Zhu Shuai sat cross-legged on the bed, his handprint changed, and he entered a state of cultivation.
Strength is the foundation of this world!
Cultivation is actually a very boring thing, especially for Zhu Shuai, knowing that cultivation is not of much use, for more than ten years, Zhu Shuai still insists on practicing every day, and this kind of perseverance is the most appreciative place.
Gradually, Zhu Shuai carefully commanded the wood elements in his body and flowed along the meridians.
Years of unremitting cultivation have made Zhu Shuai very familiar with the meridians of the body, and between the changes of the handprints, he is very skillful, and there is no mistake.
With the continuous change of Zhu Shuai's handprint, the surrounding wood elements seemed to be summoned, slowly surging towards Zhu Shuai, following Zhu Shuai's pores, integrating into his body, and continuing to strengthen the wood power in Zhu Shuai's body.
The long night was slowly spent in Zhu Shuai's continuous cultivation, and when the sun shone into the house the next day, Zhu Shuai dispersed the handprints, opened his eyes, and exhaled a breath of turbidity.
Stretching out his palm, Zhu Shuai let out a low cry in his heart, and the emerald green wood element began to condense in his hand, slowly condensing into a green bead, followed by the second and third. After condensing into four wood-tied beads, it slowly stopped.
Glancing at the wooden beads in his hand, Zhu Shuai shook his head in disappointment. After a night of hard work, it really didn't come to much use.
Zhu Shuai was stunned in his heart. Zhu Shuai could clearly feel that after so many years of cultivation, the wood element in his body was already very large, and if it was someone else, it was estimated that he would be able to impact the mage. I don't know why, I still stay in the power of the four sections, is I destined to become an unknown descendant in this life?
Zhu Shuai is really unwilling, but what can he do if he is unwilling?
With a sigh, Zhu Shuai was about to go out for a walk, when a rush of footsteps came from outside the door.
When I opened the door, it turned out to be Jing'er, this Nizi.
It's just that the look on Jing'er's face is a little flustered.
"What's wrong Jing'er?" Looking at Jing'er's unnatural cheeks, Zhu Shuai asked with concern.
"The three captains are back, but..." Jing'er wanted to speak and stopped.
"But what?" Zhu Shuai asked.
"Uncle Zhu Qing didn't come back, the third head said, Uncle Zhu Qing..." Jing'er's eyes couldn't help but turn red, and her voice became a lot choked.
"What's wrong with my father, is it impossible?" Zhu Shuai only felt a loud bang in his head, his hands and feet became cold, and it seemed that in an instant, he lost all his strength and consciousness and sat down on the ground.
Jing'er looked at Zhu Shuai's appearance, the corners of her mouth twitched, and a line of tears slowly flowed.
Zhu Shuai sat slumped on the ground, muttering about impossible, impossible. After Jing'er squatted down and hugged herself into her arms, Zhu Shuai's eyes finally turned black and she fainted.
I don't know how long it took for Zhu Shuai to wake up leisurely, at this time he was already lying on the bed, and Jing'er was looking at him with concern.
How is it possible, my father is a third-stage magician, and besides, my father also has a staff inlaid with a second-order golden beast core, plus my father carries a two-star charm speed charm (which can increase the user's speed for a short time). These things add up, and my father has no problem saving his life.
This delivery, although it will pass through the Warcraft Forest, there is a certain danger, but it is only passing by the periphery of the Warcraft Forest, and there are not many people who know about this matter, how can there be an accident?
Thinking of this, Zhu Shuai suddenly calmed down.
No, there must be a scam in this!
Zhu Shuai remembered what Murray had said to him that day, and the events of the last few days flashed quickly in Zhu Shuai's mind. Zhu Shuai felt more and more that there was something strange about this matter.
Be sure to calm down!
Zhu Shuai said to himself in his heart. Shaking his head vigorously and forcibly pressing down the uneasiness in his heart, Zhu Shuai trembled and took out his father's life card from his arms!
A fluorescent glow slowly overflowed!
Father is still alive!
