In the middle of the night in the cold winter, a roaring bonfire was burning in the Xu family's second residence, and the three of them stood around silently, but their expressions were different. The burning wood made a "crackling" sound, and the flames that were more than one person high made the three people sweat.

Xu Wuyan got dressed, turned around and looked at Xu Ning coldly, a hint of ridicule appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"Well, Patriarch, what else do you have to say now? Oh no, your patriarch position, shouldn't it be for me? ”

Xu Ning's brows condensed into a pimple, and at the same time, he felt that his brain was blank, as if he had been punched heavily in the chest!

How is this possible?! No matter how bad his eyesight is, he will not mistake Xu Wuyan's injured hand, which was definitely stabbed by a wooden thorn! At that time, he obviously saw the tattoo on his back, the seven stars holding the moon, it was too familiar!

However, there is nothing on the skin, and it doesn't look like it's been modified in a disfigured way. Could it be that the tattoo is fake? Painted on it? I inadvertently fell into a trap again!

If that's the case, you're an idiot yourself! An idiot who has been tricked around!

In contrast, Xu Aotian was even more nervous!

The qiē he did was for the Xu family, although he was a little partial to Xu Ning, but in terms of character and ability, Xu Ning was the most suitable heir. Now, the bet is obviously lost, is it really necessary to give up the position of patriarch to Xu Wuyan?

He knows too well what this third son of his own!

No, it's absolutely not going to work!

"Speechless. The position of the patriarch has been decided, and several major families outside also know that if there is a temporary change, it will ...... to the Xu family."

"Father, are you too arbitrary to say that?! Or rather, too much of a bully! Xu Wuyan coldly interrupted Xu Aotian's words, and the expression on his face was very disdainful.

"What do you mean?! Do you want to disobey me? Xu Aotian was furious.

"Hmph, I don't dare to take this charge. However, there is a saying that water is hard to recover, and you should have heard it before. I am your biological son. has been treated unfairly again and again. How can I be convinced? Xu Wuyan said without scruples.

"Rebel, you're not afraid that I will expel you from the Xu family!" Xu Aotian said angrily.

"If you want to expel me from the Xu family, don't blame me for being ruthless!"

"You ......"

"Grandfather, don't say it!" Xu Ning suddenly stood up. Stopped Xu Aotian behind him. He glanced at Xu Wuyan with a cold face.

"Don't worry. What I said definitely counts! ”

"Ning'er, you ......!" Xu Aotian was stunned, he didn't expect Xu Ning to agree!

"Grandfather. At this point, I can only blame me for being careless. The third uncle is not the best person to hurt Tianhua, if it really spreads, if our Xu family has a traitor, it will be even more shameless. Tomorrow is the ancestor worship ceremony, and then the new patriarch succession ceremony, I will let the virtuous! Xu Ning gritted his teeth and said.

"I disagree!" Xu Aotian roared angrily.

"Father, Xu Ning has already agreed, why do you want to do this to me?" Xu Wuyan smiled slightly, his face was very proud.

"Boy, don't be too happy, I will never let someone like you sit in the position of patriarch! I can let you continue to stay in the Xu family, it is already for the sake of your dead mother, the wolf son's ambition is to corrupt the entire family, I will not give you this opportunity! ”、

"Hmph, since I've already torn my face, then I don't need to be polite. I'm afraid you don't care if you talk about it, if you go back on your word, I don't care, it's just a big deal to go outside and complain. At that time, the people of the entire Qingfeng City will know that as the head of the Xu family, he is untrustworthy, and what others will think of him when he sees it! Xu Wuyan had a scoundrel face.

"You dare!"

"I've come to this point, what else would I not dare?!" Xu Wuyan took a step closer and said.

"Grandfather, don't say it, it's settled."

Xu Ning grabbed Xu Aotian's arm with his hand and pulled him outside. The old man's heart was like a fire, burning and burning, scratching his heart with a hundred claws, but he was helpless. His eyes were full of anger, and he almost rushed over and slashed Xu Wuyan to death with one palm!

It's clearly him, but there's just no evidence!

"Grandfather, don't be angry."

Finally pulled Xu Aotian into his room, Xu Ning was relieved, poured a cup of tea and put it on the table.

"Do you think I'm still in the mood for tea right now?!"

Xu Aotian looked at Xu Ning with a little disappointment and sighed.

"Grandfather, I am indeed too anxious about this matter, so that the third uncle has a loophole. However, there was a strange thing, but I didn't figure out how he did it. If we continue to stay, we may alarm the presence of other people, and once someone finds out about this, it will be a foregone conclusion. It's hard to change. Xu Ning sat down and said.

"Oh, so you have other plans." Xu Aotian asked.

"Yes, I'm sure it was definitely the third uncle who attacked Xu Tianhua, and the scars from his injuries were also caused by me. It's just that he covered it up very well, chopping wood with his hands, and then getting injured, although this excuse is terrible, but there are no loopholes. ”

"Didn't you say he had that weird tattoo on his back? How could it be missing? ”

"That's what I couldn't figure out. Grandfather, I won't just give up so lightly, you rest first, I'm going out to check it out, there is still a while before dawn, maybe I can find any clues. ”

After Xu Ning finished speaking, he immediately left the room, and a figure quickly moved in the direction of the ancestral hall in the back mountain.

Xu Aotian looked at Xu Ning's departing back with a worried look.

I thought that after the trial meeting was over, the dust would settle as soon as qiē ended, but I didn't expect that what happened one after another, which was more complicated and dangerous.

"Ancestors and ancestors, in the spirit of heaven, you must bless the Xu family safe!" Xu Aotian said heavily.

It seems that tonight is another sleepless night.

Xu Ning wanted to investigate, but in fact, he didn't have any clues in his heart, and he said something out of thin air to keep his grandfather from worrying. After crossing the ancestral hall in the back mountain, Xu Tianhua has been placed in other places, and there is no point in entering.

The so-called clues are simply nonsense, things happened too fast at that time, and it was obvious that Xu Wuyan came prepared. It is even said that there may be other internal responses of zài.

It is not a problem to find out these people, just observe which people are close to Xu Wuyan after tomorrow's ancestor worship ceremony.

However, it is absolutely important not to delay the time until after the ceremony is over. When the time comes, if he doesn't take the initiative to give up his position, Xu Wuyan will "force the palace". Jumping onto the peaks of the Kirin Mountain Range, there is a feeling of being at a loss.

Simply, go to Mengyunju to find Ouyang Zhantian!

He has a lot of experience and has experienced a lot, and maybe there will be a good way.

After making up his mind, a figure quickly flew away along the vast Qilin Mountain Range......

"Dream Yunju" has become a bustling place in Qingfeng City, and when Xu Ning arrived, the main streets were still brightly lit, and it looked like it would be open all night. Xu Ning didn't waste his time on the street, so he went directly to the backyard of the office to find Ouyang Zhantian, hoping that he hadn't rested at this time.

After entering, I found that only Xiao Ke and Lan Ruyu were the only ones who asked, and when I asked, I found out that Ouyang Zhantian had something to do and went out during the day, and probably wouldn't come back for a few days.

Xu Ning was a little depressed, sat down in his chair dejectedly, and didn't say a word.

"Hey, are you alright? Your current identity is the patriarch of the Xu family, aren't you happy? Lan Ruyu asked a little strangely.

"Brother Xu Ning, is it true that after you become the patriarch, you won't come to see us often?" Su Keke is coquettish all the time.

"The problem now is that I may not be able to sit in the position of the patriarch!" Xu Ning sighed and said, "If I can't solve the problem in front of me, tomorrow, the position of the patriarch will be changed." ”

When Lan Ruyu and Su Keke heard this, they felt that something was wrong, and immediately gathered around to ask what was going on.

Xu Ning was very upset, but he couldn't resist Su Keke's pestering, so he briefly told what happened. Lan Ruyu was dumbfounded when she heard it, she thought that the ironclad thing would change!

"So what are you going to do? Did you find any clues?! ”

"If there were clues, I wouldn't have come to find the coffin senior in the middle of the night." Xu Ning still didn't dare to reveal Ouyang Zhantian's name and news.

"Wait, Brother Xu Ning, did you just say that the tattoo on your third uncle's body disappeared and disappeared without a trace? No trace at all? ”

"Yes, no matter how stupid I am, I can see that the flesh and skin on his body have never been disguised in any way. I really can't figure out how she did it. Xu Ning said with a sad face.

"Oh, you wait." Su Keke stood up and walked outside, and after a while, holding an ice skate in his hand. It was the most common thing on the eaves in winter, held in the hand, constantly dripping.

"Xiao Ke, what are you doing with ice, it's not cold?" Lan Ruyu felt very strange.

"Sister Ruyue, come and help me and wipe this piece of ice back and forth on my shoulder." Xiao Ke said, and took off his clothes shyly, revealing his fair and pink fragrant shoulders.

"You, what are you doing here?!" Xu Ning was a little puzzled, and quickly stood up, "Now is not the time to mess around. ”

"I'm not messing around, Sister Ruyu, do what I say!" Xiao Ke was so persistent for the first time, and his eyes were full of confidence.

Lan Ruyu took the letter suspiciously and shivered coldly.

The cold crystals wiped back and forth on Xiao Ke's shoulder, and the body temperature quickly melted some of the ice, and it turned red after a while.

As the body temperature near the shoulder continued to decrease, a blue and purple mark slowly emerged, which was very blurry at first, but later, a clear line of text was displayed!

"Su Keke, a native of Three Gorges Town, Zhongzhou, his parents died early, and he was sold into slavery in the Drunken Immortal Building, with fifty gold coins!" (To be continued......)
