"The head of the family, I didn't know that Du Zhong would appear, let alone that he would play as a guest of the Xia family."

Zhou Yiqing hurriedly bowed, looking frightened.

"Hmph."

The head of the Zhou family had a cold face, stared at Zhou Yiqing coldly, and opened his mouth to say: "I'm not talking about the Xia family, but you shouldn't have been, you shouldn't have leaned to Du Zhong's side, and persuaded Ying'er to release people, do you understand?" ”

Hearing this, Zhou Yiqing's face changed suddenly.

"As a member of the Zhou family, you should maintain the dignity of our Zhou family today, how can you hesitate to retreat in front of the Xia family and the merchants?"

The head of the Zhou family scolded angrily, and opened his mouth to scold: "It's a good thing that you have a sense of the overall situation, but on the premise of not affecting the overall situation, you should also do something that our Zhou family should do, how can you refute the dignity of our Zhou family like this?" ”

"Yiqing understood."

Zhou Yiqing hurriedly admitted his mistake.

"Go down!"

The head of the Zhou family snorted unhappily, and before Zhou Yiqing left, he snorted coldly.

"Mu Renfeng!"

Shouting Mu Lao's name, the Zhou family's eyes narrowed, and with a cold light flashing in his eyes, the whole person suddenly flickered, and directly rose into the air and flew out of the door.

……

Xia's house, guest house.

Sitting in the guest house, Du Zhong took out the bead grass from his trouser pocket and put it in the palm of his hand to look at it carefully.

This bead grass.

At first glance, there was no difference between the green grass that could be seen everywhere, but Du Zhong could clearly feel the strength of the energy contained in this beaded grass.

Even the green energy that lingers around it is emanating from it.

One can imagine how strong the energy of this bead grass is.

"Although it is not as good as the thirteen earth treasures, it is still a treasure."

Laughing and muttering.

Du Zhong carefully wrapped the beaded grass and put it in his trouser pocket.

"Tomorrow ......"

Putting away the Zhuzhu grass, Du Zhong immediately got up and returned to the guest room arranged for him by Xia Ningyu, then took a deep breath, sat down cross-legged directly on the bed, and began to recover the energy in his body.

The day is down.

It was to help Xia Ningyu teach people, to fight against Shang Xuan, and to fight with the fifth child of the Zhou family in the late stage of the divine transformation, and most of the energy in Du Zhong's body was inevitably consumed.

Because I did not meet tomorrow's duel.

Du Zhong must restore his strength to the peak.

In fact, from the very beginning, Du Zhong knew that the so-called harmony between the Xia and Shang families would not play a big role at all, with the identity and status of the Zhou family, as well as the cold and arrogant temperament of the saint of the Zhou family, how could they accept the reconciliation?

As soon as his eyes closed, Du Zhong immediately began to recover.

……

Zhou's house, a small courtyard with partial peaks.

In a peak house facing the sea of clouds, Gu Muer was sitting on the dressing chair in front of the window, looking at the sea of clouds outside the window, a pair of white little hands, holding his cheeks, as if thinking about something.

"Crunch!"

Suddenly, there was a knock on the door, which woke Gu Mu'er up.

Take a look at it in a blink of an eye.

The person who came, it was Zhou Yinger, who was dressed in snow-white.

As if she had long been accustomed to Zhou Ying'er's sudden visit, Gu Mu'er just glanced at it casually, then turned her head out of the window again, and continued to be in a daze.

And this side.

Zhou Ying'er closed the door, walked to the wooden table in the center of the room, and sat down.

didn't say anything, just looked at Gu Mu'er quietly.

Less.

Seeing that Gu Mu'er had no desire to chat and talk at all, Zhou Ying'er suddenly opened her mouth and said, "Du Zhong is here." ”

"Huh?"

Gu Mu'er was stunned for a moment, and immediately turned his head in surprise, looked at Zhou Ying'er who was sitting in the center of the room, and opened his mouth to ask, "He's here?" Are you sure? Where is he? ”

"Really."

Zhou Ying'er replied expressionlessly, and then added: "He is in the Xia family, and he wants to take you back for the New Year." ”

Hear the words.

Gu Mu'er trembled.

Although this sentence did not come out of Du Zhong's mouth, and even Zhou Yinger's voice was full of indifference, when she heard this sentence, she didn't know why, she couldn't help but have a sour nose, and a layer of mist immediately surged in her big black eyes.

Scenes of what I have experienced with Eucommia.

Keep flashing in front of your eyes.

Although not for long.

However, she really wanted to, missed Eucommia.

"He's coming."

Tears slid down her cheeks, but Gu Mu'er smiled in surprise, and even asked with a trembling voice, "Will you let me go back?" ”

"This ......"

Looking at Gu Mu'er's sad and joyful expression, Zhou Ying'er couldn't help but hesitate for a moment, and then shook her head categorically and said, "No!" ”

"Hehe......"

Gu Mu'er smiled, not the slightest bit unhappy, but wiped the tears on her face, and said very expectantly: "Even if you don't let me go back, Du Zhong will definitely come to pick me up, definitely!" ”

"Really?"

Zhou Ying'er asked rhetorically in a flat tone, and said, "He may not have the strength to take you back." ”

"I believe him."

Not caring about Zhou Ying'er's words at all, Gu Mu'er opened her mouth and said, "I firmly believe it!" ”

Hearing this, Zhou Yinger's face suddenly revealed a complicated look.

……

An unknowable corner.

"Murmuring ......"

The icy stream was rushing and flowing.

Next to the stream, there is a quiet forest.

In the woods, a pavilion stands quietly in the depths of this quiet and elegant mountain wilderness.

in the gazebo.

A man with gray hair and a narrow face, a man with white hair that looked like an old man, and a man with a golden crown to show his might, sat around the stone table in the pavilion and talked about wine.

These three people are the heads of the Xia, Shang, and Zhou families.

"Brother Zhou, you know this Mu Renfeng better than me and Brother Xia, he is a madman, a pure madman!"

The head of the merchant, the white-haired old man opened his mouth and said.

"That's right."

The head of the Xia family drank a big drink, nodded and agreed: "If it weren't for the martial arts catastrophe back then, Mu Renfeng would definitely kill the Zhou family, if we make such a fuss, we have to drink like today, I'm afraid it will be difficult." ”

"Humph!"

The head of the Zhou family snorted coldly, drank a cup violently, and opened his mouth to say: "What you said is right, I don't deny Mu Renfeng's strength, but you also know very well that I didn't have a good impression of Mu Renfeng from the beginning. ”

Xia Shang and the two families glanced at each other, and they both shook their heads and smiled.

"Besides, what he Mu Renfeng lost back then was the best aunt for me."

As soon as he thought of this, the palm of the head of the Zhou family, who was holding the wine glass, couldn't help but squeeze it tightly, and said, "He caused my aunt to never marry, how can you say that I don't hate?" ”

"Hey......"

The merchant owner sighed lightly, looked at the Zhou family owner and said: "Old Zhou, you and I are both from the past, I believe you also know the evil of Du Zhong, why let history repeat itself, you have to understand that this time your Zhou family will face a person who is even more demonic than Mu Renfeng back then, if this kid is also like Mu Renfeng, a wild madman, your Zhou family will be in trouble." ”

"I agree with the old businessman."

The head of the Xia family immediately nodded and agreed, and said: "As far as I know, this kid named Du Zhong has only stepped into the martial arts for a year and a half, and in just one and a half years, he has grown to this extent, how can your Zhou family face it?" ”

"Hoo ......"

The head of the Zhou family took a deep breath and squinted his eyes.

What the head of the Xia family said was right.

At that time, Mu Renfeng was indeed not as demonic as Du Zhong in terms of cultivation, but even so, Mu Renfeng also made the Zhou family worry about internal and external troubles back then.

Compare with that year.

Now for the Zhou family, the biggest advantage is that Zhou Yinger did not clearly express her liking for Du Zhong, and she did not have the same protection that his aunt did for Mu Renfeng back then.

But the counterpart is Eucommia's terrifying talent.

If things get bigger, with Du Zhong's talent, if he were like Mu Renfeng, who had been cultivating frantically for a year and a half, what level would he reach?

No one knows about this kind of thing.

Moreover, the grievances between the Zhou family and Mu Renfeng have still not been perfectly resolved.

As Du Zhong's master, once their Zhou family was too aggressive with Du Zhong and provoked Mu Renfeng's anger, who knew what these two mad masters and apprentices would do?

Come to think of it.

The face of the head of the Zhou family couldn't help but become solemn.

From a personal standpoint, he didn't want to face Du Zhong and Mu Renfeng, but from the standpoint of the Zhou family, he had to take care of the dignity and reputation of the Zhou family.

Once compromised, what face does the Zhou family have?

How can you still base yourself on martial arts?

From the perspective of the overall situation, at the critical moment when the black-robed man is making a comeback, it is even more inappropriate to compete with Du Zhong and Mu Renfeng, after all, Mu Renfeng is the main force against the big devil, plus Du Zhong's Lotus Mountain......

For a while, the head of the Zhou family didn't know how to choose.

"Lao Zhou, you and I have lived so old, when do you think I am passing by?"

Seeing the hesitation of the Zhou family, the merchant owner immediately smiled and said, "At this age, why do you still take face so seriously, after all, we are not young anymore, right?" ”

"You ......"

The head of the Zhou family smiled bitterly and said, "If I want to be as sloppy as you, I can't do it." ”

"Haha."

The head of the Xia family laughed, and also opened his mouth and said: "I think what Lao Shang said is right, now the overall situation is important, we are all the three martial arts families, at this critical time, we should still put down our face first, and let them go whatever others say, they say it no matter what, where is the status of your Zhou family, and who else dares to shake it?" ”

"That's just as well."

The head of the Zhou family nodded and drank a glass of wine.

"If it should be relaxed, it will be relaxed, and this matter cannot be forced."

Merchants advocate oral tracts.

"Alas......"

The head of the Zhou family sighed again, opened his mouth and said, "Even if I put it down, my family can't let it go." ”

Let's talk about it.

Smacked his lips again, and added: "Okay, let the juniors solve the junior's affairs, I won't raise this matter to the level of the family, you two old guys, you should be satisfied, right?" ”

Xia Shang and the two grinned at the same time.

Although the persuasion was not successful, after all, the head of the Zhou family had already put down his body and avoided the family war, which was a good thing for Du Zhong.

Their reconciliation has been done.

End of conversation.

The three of them continued to talk, laugh and drink, but they never mentioned the matter between Du Zhong and the saintess of the Zhou family......
