Chapter 1188: Knocking on the Window in the Middle of the Night
Originally, the people in the family were very annoyed by Hong Candle's behavior of ignoring the overall situation, but they didn't expect that after telling the old master of Hong Jia, he did not obstruct it, but encouraged Hong Candle's practice.
The head of the Hong family's family not only gave verbal encouragement, but also specially invited Song Qingshu of the Song family to go to the secular world to help solve the evil cultivators, and set up a Hong Ying group for Hong Zhu alone, which is to provide her with protection and a channel to collect information.
Although it is said that the interests of the family are above all else, Hong Zhu has already proposed a solution, since she herself does not want to be a sacrifice, as long as she can find other suitable candidates in a proper way, which is enough to take her place, then the old master of the Hong family will not have any complaints about her.
The old owner's actions made the Hong family's attitude towards Hong Zhu also change, and they all respect her more on weekdays, but there is still one person, that is, her sister Hong Yan, who still disagrees with her approach.
Hong Yan believes that since Hong Zhu is the descendant of the Immortal Cultivation Sect, he must have a sense of mission to sacrifice for the family! Unexpectedly, Hong Zhu not only found an outsider to replace his position, but also learned some evil and crooked tricks, which is simply insulting to the Hong family!
However, although she doesn't agree with Hong Candle's behavior, the two have grown up together since childhood and have a deep and intimate relationship, and Hong Yan's trust and dependence on Hong Candle in her heart have not been diluted because of this.
The real reason why the two women are as incompatible and competing with each other as they are now actually starts with Xiao Chen.
Hong Yan helped in the pharmacy before, but because of Xiao Chen's unintentional words, she thought that Xiao Chen was a disciple and a pervert!
And because Hong Yan was ashamed to reveal her little secret, she never mentioned it to others, causing her to think about it every time. The perception of Xiao Chen will be even worse.
As a result, when Hong Yan was away, Hong Zhu wanted to find out Xiao Chen's strength. He didn't hesitate to use charm to seduce him!
When Hong Yan learned about this, her feelings for her sister became extremely bad. It's as uncomfortable as eating a fly.
Because of this trivial matter, the sisters became more and more unspeculative, and the conflict became more and more intensified, until later in the family, the two daughters quarreled in front of their elders.
Although he was appeased at the time, since then, the relationship between Hong Yan and Hong Zhu has gradually drifted apart, and the intersection has become less and less.
Hong Zhu stared at his phone and sighed softly. In fact, where did she and Hong Yan come from? The two are connected by blood, and it should be the most intimate relationship, who would have thought that it would become like this!
"Ahem, that ...... Sister Hong Zhu, it's getting dark, what are we waiting for here? Li Xian'er saw that Hong Zhu had finished making the call, so she looked up at the sky and coughed twice.
Although Hong Zhu has gone a little farther just now. However, there was still a few words that fell into Li Xian'er's ears.
Li Xian'er was indeed a little curious, wondering why Hong Zhu had such an unpleasant quarrel with her sisters, but she didn't dare to ask more, after all, this was a family matter. Outsiders are not very easy to participate, so they can only change the topic.
Hong Zhu calmed down and said with a solemn face: "I got a message just now. The Ghost Cultivator Sect is also competing with us in the secular world for the Aura Woman, and it is very likely that Lu Shuangshuang was captured by them! ”
"What? Ghost cultivators? Li Xian'er was taken aback. After pondering for a while, he looked at the bungalow and said, "Since that's the case." Shouldn't we speed things up? Why don't you ask that Lin Keer now and see if she is willing to be a sacrifice? Looking at the situation here, I feel that her family background should not be very good, as long as she spends a little more money, I guess she will definitely be able to agree! ”
"Not yet!" Hong Zhu had returned to normal at this time, stared at Lin Ke'er's residence and said: "This matter is full of strangeness, if we just rush in so rashly, Lin Ke'er will not only not believe our words, but also suspect that Lu Shuangshuang was snatched by us." ”
"What then? If we don't make a move, when the time comes, the people from the Ghost Cultivator Sect will come over, and it will be too late! Li Xian'er asked with a frown.
"I want them to come!" Hong Zhuxiu raised his eyebrows and said coldly: "If Lu Shuangshuang was really captured by the people of the Ghost Cultivator Sect, it means that Lin Ke'er is also very dangerous, so I plan to squat here for a few days to see who the other party is!" If it goes well, he can also use this to save Lu Shuangshuang back. ”
Li Xian'er waved her little fist excitedly: "That's great!" I've wanted to teach those ghost cultivators a lesson for a long time, but I haven't had a chance to meet them, uh......"
As soon as she was halfway through the words, Li Xian'er's stomach made a "cooing" sound, she hurriedly covered her stomach in embarrassment, and then remembered that she hadn't had time to finish eating, and was called here by Lin Ke'er with a phone call.
"Hehe, I happen to be a little hungry too, you keep an eye here first, I'll go out and buy something to eat and come back." Hong Zhu smiled slightly, stretched his waist in a charming manner, glanced around, and then walked towards the convenience store at the entrance of the shantytown.
Late that night, most of the families in the shantytown had turned off the lights and went to sleep, and only a few houses were still dimly lit, including Lin Keer's room.
Originally, Lin Keer would not have gone to bed so late, but she is now a freshman, in addition to going to class on time during the day, she also has to help set up a stall at home in her spare time, and her learning progress is inevitably a little unable to keep up, she doesn't want to fall behind others, so she takes advantage of the evening to study for a while.
After doing a few exercises carefully, Lin Keer looked up at the time and found that it was almost twelve o'clock, so he closed the textbook, went out to take a shower, and returned to the room when he was about to turn off the lights and go to bed, when he suddenly saw a dark shadow flashing outside the window.
"What...... What people?! Lin Keer was suddenly taken aback, I heard that several families in the shantytown had been stolen recently, according to the investigation, those thieves were in the middle of the night, waiting for the people in the bungalow to fall asleep, and then sneaking in through the window to steal things!
Because the buildings in the shantytown are basically bungalows, and Lin Keer's family lives on the first floor, and the windows of her house are the kind of old-fashioned locks, which have been used for decades, and now they are dilapidated, and can only use latches, so once they are targeted by thieves, it is easy to enter the room.
"Ke'er, I'm Shuangshuang, you haven't slept yet, have you? Quick, hurry up and open the window, I'm in trouble! As soon as Lin Ke'er had the courage to ask, Lu Shuangshuang's voice came from outside the window, and it sounded a little hoarse.
"Shuangshuang? It's you! Where did you go? Your grandmother and I are dying! Lin Ke'er was overjoyed, and hurriedly ran over, and was about to open the window, when his hand suddenly paused. (To be continued......)
