Chapter 430: Return to the Mansion
If I had known all of Sheng Hexuan's goals and plans early on, whether Ye Dingxi and I would have made a move, I might never have been able to give this answer.
Cause and effect in the cycle of fate never put the cart before the horse.
As soon as this topic was discussed, there was a knock on the door, and Ye Dingxi and I had just turned our heads, and Hua Quan and Zhu Yan had already appeared at the door, looking at us dumbfounded.
"Ahem. ”
Ye Dingxi's hands hung down, a touch of embarrassment flashed on his face, and he quietly took two steps away from me before he looked at his two subordinates and said, "Dongtian woke up." ”
Hua Quan and Zhu Yan breathed a sigh of relief.
"It's okay, it's okay. ”
With two words, Ye Dingxi's delicately carved face was instantly covered with frost, vividly interpreting what an 'iceberg beauty' is.
He bypassed me, took two steps, turned into a serious face in an instant, stared at the two subordinates and asked, "The whereabouts of Mrs. Xu and the others, how is the investigation going?"
Zhu Yan took a light breath and said, "Lord, I have found out their whereabouts, just the old mansion of the Sheng family that was seized the year before last, and yesterday, someone saw the lights in the house. ”
"The old mansion of the Sheng family?!"
I hurriedly asked, "Is it the courtyard where Sheng Hexuan grew up and lived?"
Zhu Yan was stunned for a moment and said, "Yes, madam, are you ......?"
Sheng Hexuan actually took Xu Yayun to his mother's house, it seems that ...... She must be planning to do something there, we have to hurry up, otherwise once something happens to Sheng Hexuan, we won't be able to find the Dream Eater's things!"
"Madame, you just woke up, and now you ......" Hua Quan looked at me with some concern.
I was so busy shaking my head, "It's okay, it's okay, I know the environment in the Sheng family better than you, Sheng Hexuan has Xu Zecheng to help, if you don't bring me, maybe you will be trapped in the Sheng family." ”
After all these years, Xu Zecheng's ability should have grown.
Although I don't know what the final result of his sealing of the Dream Eater Tapir was that night a few years ago, as long as this guy is still alive and stays by Sheng Hexuan's side, then he will definitely do his best to help Sheng Hexuan at this time, even if it is ...... Abandon Xu
Asian Games.
Once a teenager, it has become very different at this moment, and I even have some suspicions that the disappearance of the servants of the Xu family's old mansion is also related to them......
......
Speeding in a car.
"Madam, this is a freshly brewed medicine, drink it while it's hot. ”
Hua Quan poured out a bowl of foul-smelling medicinal juice from a thermos cup, which was much thicker and more fishy than what I used to drink.
"Why is the digestive matter of the dream tapir getting more and more smelly?!"
I frowned, but reached out to take the steaming medicine bowl.
Hua Quan said: "Since the Dream Tapir was injured, the demonic power has been declining, originally the Wei and Meng families wanted to take this opportunity to cooperate, to conduct some research on the demon beast in terms of neurons and dream reflexes, etc., but the medicine that Madame needs to use here must be obtained by the Dream Tapir surviving, so they have found a way to use the medicine to continue its life, including many medicines that strengthen the foundation of Peiyuan, under the effect of the two phases, the digestion obtained from the body of the Dream Tapir has also changed its smell." ”
"Research the Dream Tapir?!"
It was the first time I heard that humans would study demon beasts, and it was in such a strange direction, so I asked curiously, "What can those data bring to the Wei family and the Meng family?"
"Two aspects. ”
This time it was Zhu Yan's turn to drive: "First of all, the Wei and Meng families are a family of exorcism and demon extermination, inherited for hundreds of years, the previous methods of subduing demons are too general, and the means of subduing any monster are the same, and there is no targeting, so the effect is sometimes good and sometimes bad.
Therefore, as early as more than ten years ago, they already had the idea of this aspect, through the ontology data of different demon beasts, to formulate a more targeted method of exorcism and demon subjugation, once successful, it will greatly improve the efficiency and success rate. ”
"As far as I know, this aspect is not the real purpose of the Wei and Meng families to start this experimental project, they are constantly collecting data on demons, or they still hope to improve the genes of their own family's mixed-race descendants, and even when the conditions for transformation are ripe, they can transform volunteers into the demons they want to become. Hua Quan said this, and a trace of solemnity appeared between her eyebrows.
I was even more surprised to hear it
"What do you mean that once this experimental plan is successful, the future Wei family and the Meng family can transform or create demons by themselves?!"
"So to speak. ”
This time, it was Ye Dingxi's turn to speak, "The ambitions of the Wei family and the Meng family have always been more than today, no matter what the purpose of this plan is, they will interfere with the natural laws of the reincarnation of the Six Realms one day in the future." ”
But......
"Hua Quan, isn't the current head of the Wei family your brother Wei Luomi?He also agrees with this ridiculous plan?Agree with your family's involvement?" I asked suspiciously.
The woman sitting in the front passenger seat glanced at Ye Dingxi quickly before replying, "Madam, the lord of this plan did not ask the Wei family to stop. ”
What the?!
I immediately turned to look at Ye Dingxi, glared at him with an unbelievable look, and as soon as I opened my mouth, I saw Ye Dingxi lightly hooking the corners of his lips.
"I know what you're asking, this plan does sound like it's doing more harm than good, and it's ...... It may be that the Wei family and the Meng family have encountered many unknown dangers, but now that the new head of the Wei family, Wei Luomi, has an unstable foundation, and several branch forces are eyeing him, if they are forcibly stopped, the Wei family will be completely out of control, and the situation will only be worse than now.
As for the Meng family, their research on demons was earlier than the Wei family, and they had been committed to studying the enhancement of the mixed-race physique, as well as how the low-level monsters mutated their bodies, so they could get the support of several great elders in the demon world, and our interference was not very effective. ”
"That's why you didn't stop this plan because of these reasons?" I glanced at him suspiciously.
Ye Ding's long and thick eyelashes fell a layer of shadow on his face, and the curvature of the side face was slightly taut, and he thought for a moment before he said: "Of course, I am also selfish, as for why, I will tell you later." ”
I showed an expression of 'I knew it would be like this', and gave him a big moon-worshipping look, at this time, Zhu Yan had already parked the car on the side of the road, turned back to us and said, "Lord, madam, we have arrived, and across the road is the old house of the Sheng family." ”
Ye Dingxi nodded and walked out of the car with us.
The road in front of us looked a little old, and the trees on the side of the road had grown tall and shady.
