Chapter 13: The Qin family arrives
In the next period of time, one person and one bird relied on a high degree of tacit understanding, and quickly got a lot of things that couldn't be done before, and the two practiced together on weekdays, did bad things together, and lived a happy life.
In the blink of an eye, more than a month has passed, and the day when the Qin family came to visit the Huo family has arrived.
On this day, Qin Jingyun, the patriarch of the Qin family, led the people of the Qin family to the border of the Burning Fire Mountain Range, and at this time, the Huo family had already come to the border of the Burning Fire Mountain Range early under the leadership of Huo Zhantian. Because Huo Zhentian is the ancestor of the Huo family, his generation is wrong, and it is most appropriate for the head of the Huo family to come forward to greet him at this moment.
Huo Zhantian had already given many orders to the Huo family before this, and he knew that at this time, the Qin family must not be allowed to notice the slightest movement of the Huo family.
Everyone in the Huo family also understands that this visit of the Qin family is full of all kinds of uncertainties......
"Brother Huo!" After Qin Jingyun reached the boundary of the Burning Fire Mountain Range, he saw Huo Zhantian and the others who were staying here to greet him from a distance, and he immediately went up to shake hands with Huo Zhantian with excitement.
"Brother Qin!" Huo Zhantian also stepped forward to talk to Qin Jingyun with an excited face, as if he had missed Qin Jingyun for a long time.
"Haha, Brother Huo, you and I have known each other since childhood, and later we both became the patriarchs of our respective families, and we are busy with family affairs on weekdays, how many years have we not seen each other?" Qin Jingyun laughed heartily, as if he felt sorry for Huo Zhantian.
"Alas, more than ten years have passed, and I want to go back to the beginning, when the two of us were relaxed, and when the families of the Burning Domain gathered, we talked together and drank unconscious. Huo Zhantian sighed.
......
The scene at this moment is like the two families have been friends for many years, and it is impossible to see that these two families are actually about to quarrel to the point of incompatibility, and the conversation between Huo Zhantian and Qin Jingyun at this moment is full of hypocrisy.
"Let's go, let's not stand here stupidly, go to our Huo family's ancestral city to do it, our Huo family has been preparing for many days, just waiting for the arrival of your Qin family." Huo Zhantian motioned to Qin Jingyun.
Under the leadership of Huo Zhantian, the people of the Qin family scattered and cultivated as followers of the Huo family flew to the Huo family's ancestral city, and in the Huo family's hospitality hall, the people of the Huo family had already prepared wine and food, and the descendants of the Huo family and the high-level officials of the Huo family were waiting for the arrival of the Qin family in the Huo family square.
Most of the juniors of the Huo family have also gone out, and at this moment, the Huo family square is crowded with people, and Hodge is in the crowd, standing with the ghost sparrow.
Before this, the Huo family elder had told Hodge countless times to reduce his sense of existence as much as possible and speak less. As the second young master of the Huo family, it is inappropriate for Hodge not to come forward at this time, but he can't let the Qin family pay attention to Hodge, so he can only let Hodge reduce his sense of existence as much as possible.
Soon, Huo Zhantian and the others led the people of the Qin family to the square, the Qin family came to hundreds of people this time, in addition to some guards and high-level family officials, the juniors in the family also came a lot, Qin Jingyun took them to visit the Huo family, and by the way, there were some secret tasks for them to perform.
After a few polite words, Huo Zhantian led everyone of the Qin family to the reception hall of the Huo family to receive the wind for everyone in the Qin family. The high-ranking and some descendants also went with them.
During the meal, except for Qin Jingyun, the patriarch of the Qin family, who smiled and talked cordially with Huo Zhantian, everyone from the Qin family was not kind and rarely spoke.
Hodge was also eating carelessly at the moment, and suddenly, he noticed that a gaze was looking at him, and when he fixed his eyes, it was a boy from the Qin family who was about the same age as himself.
The boy's face was cold, and when Hodge looked at him, the boy turned his gaze away, his face full of disdain.
"What a man!" Hodge muttered, and went back to eating.
"Qiqi, don't bother with him, this is the son of Qin Jingyun, the head of the Qin family, Qin Shunfan. Hodge's next to Hodge whispered to Hodge.
"Got it!" Hodge squeaked, if it weren't for the wrong situation, Hodge would have had a good mouthful.
"If anything happens in a while, I'll stop it for you. The Phantom Sparrow whispered to Hodge that the Phantom Sparrow didn't need to come here, but the family let the Phantom Sparrow come with it for some reasons and sat next to Hodge.
"Don't worry, I know what is important. Hodge was unimpressed by the Ghostfinch's kindness.
In the main hall, Qin Jingyun was chatting with Huo Zhantian about some family problems, for such questions, Huo Qi didn't understand and didn't listen much, but Huo Xian'er beside him was pricking up his ears and listening carefully to the words of the two patriarchs.
Hodge's mother died of illness when Hodge was very young, and since then, Huo Tear'er has been thinking about the two younger brothers, because even if his father is the patriarch, but there are some things that men can't consider, Mom died of illness, and the two younger brothers are young, if they don't pay more attention, the two younger brothers may suffer in some places.
After drinking and eating, the patriarch of the Qin family led a few people who were in high positions in the Qin family to go to the Huo family hall with Huo Zhentian to discuss the alliance between the two families, and the rest of the Qin family went to the Huo family's ancestral city to visit and walk.
Huo Qi followed Huo Lin, Huo Tears, and the Phantom Sparrow together, wandering around the square, at this moment, there were a lot of people in the Huo family square, not only there were many people in the square, but the people in the ancestral city were also two or three times more than before, and the Huo family transferred many people to serve in the ancestral city.
"It's so boring, how long will the Qin family stay in our Huo family this time?" The ghost bird opened his mouth full of complaints, the arrival of the Qin family made the overall atmosphere of the Huo family a little depressed, and there was no noise in the past.
"It should be gone in three or four days. Huo Xian'er groaned, "The alliance is not a trivial matter, it can't be completed in a day or two, but the Qin family will not stay in the Huo family for a long time, because after a long time, there may be changes, and this is the Huo family, not the Qin family." ”
"I always feel that the alliance between the two families this time will not be very smooth, after all, there was too much hatred before, and it will take a few years to completely let go, one thing I wonder is why the Qin family would think of forming an alliance with our Huo family, logically speaking, even if the Qin family forms an alliance with any of the Burning Domains, it is impossible to form an alliance with our Huo family. Huo Lin's face was solemn and he said in a low voice.
"There must be a reason for everything, as juniors, we can't figure out the minds of our elders, and we need to wait and see what happens. Huo Wei'er replied.
And in the main hall of the Huo family, Qin Jingyun was discussing the alliance with Huo Zhantian.
"I won't go around the corner, presumably the Huo family also understands that the Huo family has been on the cusp of the burning domain in the past two years, and in the final analysis, the most important reason is that the Huo family has had an opportunity that has given the Huo family the momentum of rising. Qin Jingyun said
You go on. Huo Zhentian motioned for Qin Jingyun to continue, at this time, Huo Zhentian was very calm and wanted to hear Qin Jingyun's thoughts.
"Now the situation of your Huo family is very bad, many families are staring at your Huo family, the Huo family is in turmoil, and basically will not hide it from other families. Qin Jingyun said slowly: "I think everyone of the Huo family will definitely be suspicious of our Qin family's alliance this time, I understand, originally according to the feud between our two families for so many years, we will definitely take the lead in starting a war with the Huo family to prevent the Huo family from rising, because after the Huo family rises, it will definitely destroy our Qin family first." ”
"But!" Qin Jingyun paused, "Our Qin family wants to tie up with the Huo family and gamble, but the premise is that your Huo family has to agree, let go of all hatred with the Qin family, after the Huo family rises, we want our Qin family to become the second family of the Burning Domain, and after the Huo family goes to the mainland, the Burning Domain belongs to our Qin family." ”
"This is no problem, after all, our Huo family is now difficult to protect itself, if your family is willing to stand with our Huo family and help our Huo family face this crisis together, then our Huo family will be grateful to your family, as long as our Huo family can survive this crisis, three-fifths of the area of the Burning Domain will be distributed by the Huo family's allies. After careful consideration, Huo Zhentian agreed.
But Huo Zhentian did not let down his vigilance against the Qin family in his heart, because they were not fools if they could gain a foothold in the Burning Domain, and the alliance was probably just a superficial article, and it was still impossible to guess what conspiracy the Qin family had.
"Then I wish our two families a happy cooperation, and in the days to come, we will give our family all our strength to support the Huo family and do everything possible to pull more allies for the Huo family. Qin Jingyun stood up and stepped forward to shake hands with Huo Zhentian.
Huo Zhentian stepped forward to shake hands with Qin Jingyun, but the two of them had their own thoughts in their hearts, and the two of them were extremely deep in the city, and they did not show the slightest. Being at the top of the Burning Domain, the two of them are also more thoughtful and long-term.
"Next, please ask the Qin family to stay in our Huo family for a few more days, so that our Huo family can do a good job of the friendship of the landlord. Huo Zhantian spoke.
"Then I can't thank you enough. Qin Jingyun clenched his fists at Huo Zhantian, and then led the people of the Qin family back to the resting place.
After the people of the Qin family left, Huo Zhantian signaled Huo Zhentian to come to the secret room to discuss important matters, and then Huo Zhentian followed Huo Zhantian into the secret room, and used cultivation to isolate any sound in this secret room.
"Father, how could the Qin family form an alliance with our Huo family so easily, do you want to, we will do all the people of the Qin family tonight!" Huo Zhantian's eyes moved. He thought a lot in his heart and concluded that the Qin family must have a conspiracy.
Now there are hundreds of people in the Qin family in the Huo family, all of them are some people who have enough weight in the Qin family, as well as the top juniors of the Qin family, if all of them are wiped out now, then it will be a very heavy blow to the Qin family, and the Qin family's strength will be greatly reduced, and they may not even be able to compete with the Huo family anymore.
And if they are let out of the Huo family and then go to destroy them, the Qin family is not a fool, this pot will also be pressed on the head of the Huo family, and it is even possible that the ancestor of the Qin family will bring people to greet them outside the Huo family, and there will be no guarantee that this group of people will be destroyed at that time, and once they are allowed to escape, they will definitely lead their allies to come back and start a war with the Huo family, and then the gains will outweigh the losses.
And once they succeed in doing these people of the Qin family, even if it is the Qin family, it is impossible to start a war with the Huo family immediately, because the ancestor of the Qin family will weigh it, even if the Qin family leads the alliance to start a war with the Huo family, the Qin family is definitely the main force, it is very likely that the Huo family will pull the Qin family on the road together, even if the Qin family can finally defeat the Huo family, but its own strength will definitely be reduced by seven or eight tenths, and it is likely to be targeted by the so-called alliance, after all, people's hearts are unpredictable.
"No, the Qin family is also gambling, once we destroy their group of people, then our Huo family's reputation in the Burning Domain will be completely stinky, and there will be fewer people who have formed an alliance with us, so that there will be no one to form an alliance with us, and the Qin family will have one less enemy, and the loss of all alliances will simply outweigh the losses, and the family staring at our Huo family will not be the only one Qin family, if there is no family alliance with us, then our Huo family will be truly finished." After thinking carefully, Huo Zhentian spoke.
"It's my lack of consideration. Huo Zhantian was shocked into a cold sweat, in the vital joint of the Huo family, you must be careful everywhere, everything has to be carefully thought about before you can decide, otherwise the Huo family may capsize in the gutter.
