Chapter 51: The Wind Rises
"Come in"
Kong Xuan replied, but the movements in his hands did not stop.
Crunch...
The door opened, and a delicate maid walked in slowly with a tray in her hand, on which a crimson orchid was placed.
"Put it here"
Kong Xuan put down the pestle in his hand, raised his head, and smiled politely at the maid.
"Okay"
The maid placed the tray on the table, smiled softly at Kongxuan, and withdrew.
After the maid left, Kong Xuan took out a pair of gloves from the space ring, exhaled lightly, and carefully picked up the fire poison orchid:
"Whew, the poison primer has also arrived, and then it's a matter of time..."
......
Liu's side hall, Liuyan's room.
Liu Ku was really angry, obviously he was the most worried about the head of the family, so he actually waited for three days, and when Liu Tong was not at home, he let that empty Xuan treat the head of the family. ”
On the side of the table, Liu Yan, who had an old-fashioned face, sighed lightly and said helplessly.
"Hehe, because of this insurance, Liu Tong is now like a frightened bird, a nerve collapses, all the attention is on the head of the family, naturally we have to paralyze him for three days first, creating an illusion that we can't do anything about the head of the family, so that he can rest assured to go to the city lord's mansion on behalf of the Liu family, the second child is very greedy, such a big opportunity to be close to the city lord, he is impossible to give up. ”
Liu Ping, the third elder who was sitting opposite Liu Yan, put the teacup in his hand on the table, rubbed his forehead, and said with a smile.
Liu Yan nodded, then hesitated slightly, turned his head sideways, looked at Liu Ping, and asked:
"You have had contact with that empty Xuan, tell me what kind of person this young man is, why is Liu Ku so sure, he will definitely be able to cure the head of the family?"
Liu Ping was slightly stunned, then laughed and said:
"Great Elder, don't underestimate this young man called Kong Xuan, I just heard the fourth child say it at first, and then I became curious, so I went to see, I had a conversation with him in front of the palace gate, and then inquired about some of his recent things in Mocheng, I found that this young man's way of doing things is very similar to an experienced adult, plus although he has no spiritual power, but his strength is extremely good, this is enough to explain something. ”
Speaking of this, Liu Ping's smile gradually closed, and his expression gradually became serious:
"This Kong Xuan is either the young master of a big family, or there is an extremely powerful master behind him, we can't tell if he is the eldest young master, but this master, I'm afraid he can't run. To be able to teach a child without spiritual power to be so powerful, as far as I know, in this Gujia Empire, I am afraid that no one can do it. ”
Speaking of this, Liu Ping took a sip of tea, moistened his throat, and continued:
"Miss Shuang'er said that when she was in the mountains, Kong Xuan mentioned that she had a master, and her expression was extremely dependent. Such a master, since he is relieved that his apprentice is alone, must have given him some life-saving cards, and for a person who has no spiritual power and relies purely on the body, the most relied on when injured must be the elixir. Therefore, I think that this Kongxuan's understanding of medicinal materials will definitely be quite thorough, besides, he is not a person without a purpose, since he proposed to detoxify the head of the family, I believe he will have a way"
Hearing Liu Ping's words, Liu Yan frowned, and a trace of worry flashed on his old-fashioned old face:
"Well, we're in the hall... Will it make him resentful? If he hires his master... Then our Liu family..."
Liu Ping waved his hand, interrupting Liu Yan's words, his beard trembled, and he laughed:
"Haha, the Great Elder doesn't have to worry, Kong Xuan is not a person with a small belly, otherwise he would not detoxify the old master, the matter of the hall, suppressing him is to make him have no good impression of the Liu family, so that he can help the Liu family with the purpose of cooperation. That young man has a murderous aura, maybe there is some kind of enemy behind him, if he is greedy for a momentary need to befriend him, and from then on he will bring the disaster of destruction to the Liu family, but the gains outweigh the losses. The difficulties of the Liu family are better to rely less on outsiders. ”
Liu Yan saw that Liu Ping thought so clearly, and he was also relieved in his heart.
Liu Ping is a coarse and delicate person, although he has a big appearance and a hot temper, but when it comes to things, he has seen it more thoroughly than anyone else, and the Liu family has survived so far, which has a great deal to do with his wisdom.
......
Meaux, the Lord's Mansion.
In the midst of the lavish hall stood a young man of about twenty-six or seventeen.
The man was dressed in white and wore a white cloak behind his back, vaguely revealing a bit of chic and elegant temperament, and the man's face was quite handsome, but more of it was calm.
At this time, the man was holding a piece of cloth brocade in his hand, and a pair of eyes were staring closely at the delicate font on it.
After half a ring, the man helplessly softened his forehead, and then carefully rolled up the cloth brocade.
"Haha, Xing'er, aren't you coming back tomorrow according to the schedule? Father is still waiting to go out of the city tomorrow to meet you. ”
A hearty laugh suddenly sounded in the hall, and then, a middle-aged man in armor, about fifty years old, walked in front of Mo Xing.
Above the man's face, after years have passed, it looks a little vicissitudes, above the temples, the hair color is gray, but the pair of tiger eyes are still blazing, and there is a domineering spirit between the eyebrows, this domineering general is the city lord of Mo City - Mo Leopard.
"Father, look at the cloth brocade that Gao Xin sent someone to give me, can I not come back quickly. ”
Seeing Mo Leopard, Mo Xing handed the cloth brocade in his hand to the latter, and his eyes were even more helpless, and he couldn't help but smile bitterly.
Mo Bao took the cloth brocade, opened it, swept the tiger's eyes, was stunned for a moment, and then laughed loudly:
"Haha, my daughter-in-law here is waiting for you to avenge her, you have been training for the past few years, she has been pampered by Gao Fu very well, this time she was treated like this by the Teng family, it is normal to be resentful. Involved in family feuds, even Gao Fu didn't dare to shoot casually, Gao Xin was cold, so he sprinkled his anger on you, haha, your daughter-in-law was angry with you, there is nothing wrong with this, speaking of which, when you left, the girl didn't shed tears. ”
Hearing his father mention the old things, Mo Xing's heart also swelled with nostalgia, he smiled slightly, took the cloth brocade from Mo Bao's hand, rolled it up carefully, and then put it in his arms.
"Father, I heard from the secret guard that the Teng family is now taking action against the Gao family and the Liu family?"
Speaking of the Teng family, Mo Xing was also talking about business, thinking of the secret guard's report, he couldn't help frowning, and asked.
"Hmph, there are some forces behind this Teng family, I wanted to suppress them, and I received a warning. ”
A hint of fierceness flashed in Mo Leopard's pair of tiger eyes, and he said coldly.
"The Imperial Capital Iron Family?"
Looking at his father's expression, Mo Xing guessed.
"Yes, it is the Tie family, although I don't know what this super family wants to use the Teng family to do in this Mo City, but it is obvious that the Teng family has failed, whether it is against the Liu family or the Gao family, he has not succeeded. ”
Mo Bao nodded, replied, and said that at the end, the corners of his mouth twitched slightly, and a sneer appeared, obviously Mo Bao was extremely shameful for the Teng family.
Seeing his father's expression, Mo Xing couldn't help but shake his head, he knew that his father had wanted to do something to the Teng family for a long time, but because of the Tie family's intentional protection, he had never had a chance.
"Now, the things that the Tie family handed over to the Teng family have not been done, and the Teng family has also exposed their own anger, and it is impossible for the Tie family to protect such a waste dog. ”
As he spoke, Mo Bao's brows suddenly relaxed, obviously extremely happy, he glanced at his son, and continued:
"The affairs of the Teng family will be handed over to you, now your strength has skyrocketed, reaching the second-order War Spirit King, you don't have to worry about anything else in Mocheng, just avenge my daughter-in-law, hahaha, when you finish cleaning up the Teng family, it will be a matter of time before the Lei family is promoted to the new three major families, and when the time comes, I can also rest assured that I will hand over the position of city lord to you, so that I can go to retreat and cultivate." ”
Mo Xing nodded, and did not refuse, this is a matter of time before him, the reason why he has experienced is to come back to inherit the city lord.
"By the way, father, how is my brother, what happened to him and Liu Shuang'er..."
Seeing that Mo Leopard was in a better mood, Mo Xing's lips moved, and then carefully paid attention to the latter's face.
"Hmph, how can that little rabbit cub get Liu Shuang'er's favor, he and the girl of the Lei family have been playing close recently. Liu Shuang'er is afraid that she doesn't count on it. ”
Speaking of Mo Yun, Mo Leopard was furious and couldn't help but snort coldly.
Seeing Mo Bao's expression of hatred for iron and steel, Mo Xing's heart trembled slightly, and he didn't ask any more.
At this moment, a respectful voice suddenly came from outside the hall:
"City Lord, led by Liu Tong, the people of the major families are already waiting in the guest room..."
