Shane, who was on the roof, witnessed the moment when the four elders swallowed the ashes alive, and almost fell off the roof, but fortunately, the lieutenant Chi Chi grabbed him, covered his mouth again, and signaled him not to make a sound, not to make a little noise.

Xie En's whole body was trembling, and various images kept flashing in his mind - the fourth uncle Xie Deng paid a lot of money to buy the ashes brought by the cripple, his father killed the cripple with his own hands, and the four elders swallowed the ashes alive......

What the hell is all this going on?

After the four Xie families in the account room swallowed the ashes, they all showed satisfied expressions, and they were all much more relaxed, looked at each other and smiled, and then left the account room one by one very tacitly, and each went back to the branch where he lived.

Shane sat on the roof, his mind full of question marks, completely confused about what it was all about.

Wei Chiran suddenly found that the layout of the Xie family's mansion was a little strange, but because it was night, he couldn't see the whole picture, and the strangest thing was that there were no taller buildings around, so he planned to go to a farther place after dawn and find a taller building to take a look. At the same time, he also needs to find out what the foreigner is.

Wei Chi asked Shane to go back to his room to rest first, so that no one would find anything strange about him, and he would never ask the elders in the family about any danger that might be present. Shane went back dejected, without saying a word, and even if he finally fell asleep, it would be nightmares one after another.

Wei Chiran naturally didn't sleep, he analyzed all night, what is the situation of the Xie family? After thinking about it, he felt that he had to find the Dead Ear, but he was not a person of this era, and naturally he didn't know how to find the Dead Ear here, so he could only find a way to inquire in the streets and alleys, and the best way was to start with the coachman.

Wei Chiran called a car, said that he was from out of town, and asked the coachman to pull him around, because of the generous reason, the coachman was also happy, without saying a word, he pulled Wei Chiran away, and took Wei Chiran to walk around various places in Jinmen, Wei Chiran excused himself to be hungry, and led the coachman to sit down at the roadside stall, ordered two bowls of noodles, and chatted while eating.

The coachman had never met such a generous guest as Wei Chi Ran in his life, let alone a guest who still led him to eat, so he naturally let down his guard against ordinary people.

Wei Chiran took the opportunity to ask: "I heard that there are eight families in Jinmen, which eight families are they?" Who's the strongest? ”

The coachman said: "Of course, the Xie family is the head of the eight families, and the richest one in Tianjin is the Xie family." ”

Wei Chi said: "Really? What does the Xie family do to do business? ”

The coachman said: "In the past, it was started by salt merchants, and later pawnshops and medicinal herbs were added, especially the pawnshop trading, which is simply a million profits." ”

Wei Chiran asked: "The Xie family seems to be prosperous, and all of them are extraordinary. ”

The coachman said: "That's right, but it's also strange, the Xie family, I heard that among the generations, the eldest son led by him has no prospects, and he has nothing to do all day long, and the Xie family has nothing to do about it." ”

Wei Chiran wondered, didn't people in the outside world know that the Xie family had a rule that the eldest son was not allowed to touch the business? So he asked, "Why?" ”

The coachman said: "Who knows this, probably because the eldest son is too favored, do you know, the eldest son of the three generations of the Xie family has made a lot of big troubles, I will tell you about the eldest son of the previous generation, that kid is called Xie Quan, it can be said that he does all kinds of evil, and he takes his family to bully men and women all day long, and runs rampant in the market, and finally was sentenced to death for murder." ”

Wei Chi said: "Then the Xie family has also been born with brutes?" ”

The coachman said, "Isn't it?" Xie Quan is simply not a human being, a real brute, but the reason why the Xie family has a good reputation is because of this, they did not protect Xie Quan, I heard that when Xie Quan was escorted to the execution ground, he cried all the way to let the family save him, but the family did not move, but instead apologized to the whole Jinmen, saying that the Xie family had such a beast, and they were ashamed to the people of Tianjin, and they took out the money to compensate not to mention, and did a lot of good deeds to apologize. ”

Wei Chiran felt even more strange when he heard this, what is going on with this Xie family? Obviously, it was the gentleman who he had cultivated, and it was obvious that they pushed Xie Quan into the fire pit, but why didn't they save him? Isn't that logical?

Moreover, Wei Chiran also found that the coachman did not know much about the Xie family, most of them were rumors, and the most important thing was that the Xie family only used family servants, which was also very peculiar in Jinmen.

What is a family servant? It is from the first generation of the Xie family that all the servants have been passed down from generation to generation, and no new people have been recruited, and in the past hundred years, no outsiders have entered the Xie family to work.

Wei Chi Ran understood that the Xie family must have a secret, if it weren't for this, they wouldn't have to do this, this way of doing things is completely for secrecy, so why keep it secret? And what is this secret?

Wei Chi let the coachman drag him around, and finally found a broken tower far away from Xie's house, under which a land lord is now enshrined, and maybe the broken tower will be demolished. After Wei Chi sent the coachman away, he saw that there was no one around, and climbed directly to the broken tower, wanting to see the environment of the Xie family.

After going up to the tower, Wei Chiran looked in the direction of the Xie family, only glanced at it, and was shocked, there was a problem with the layout of the Xie family's building, he remembered that He Changqing had taught himself, this layout is called "the place of death", in short, it is the layout of the house The building is wrong, first of all, it is necessary to focus on "pass", which means that it is usually smooth, and there should be no blockage in the key position. The Xie family is good, it is impermeable on all sides, and the courtyard garden is also in a strange shape from a high place, not only impassable, but also extremely chaotic. It stands to reason that with this kind of feng shui, the Xie family has long been ruined, why did they become the head of the eight families?

Wei Chi hurriedly got down the tower, returned to the small mansion and thought for a long time, but he didn't understand why? At this moment, the door opened, and a man in his thirties walked in the door, the man was wearing a dress, carrying an umbrella and a box in his hand, and asked Wei Chiran why he was at his house.

Wei Chiran said, "Is this your home?" ”

As soon as he finished saying this, Xie En suddenly appeared from the door, pointed at Wei Chiran and said, "You don't know my master at all, this is my teacher Nian Chengkai." ”

Wei Chiran was stunned for a moment, looking at the expressionless man in front of him, when he was stunned, Xie En took a piece of silver dollar to the man and let the man leave.

After the man left, Shane asked Wei Chiran, "Who are you?" ”

Wei Chiran said: "I am indeed not your master's friend, but I am not a bad person, I am really here to save you, and I also want to wait for your master here, I have an urgent matter with him and need his help." ”

Shane asked, "What's the urgency you have to find my master?" And why do you know that something strange is going to happen in my family? ”

Wei Chiran could only say: "I can not know the prophet." ”

Shane naturally didn't believe it: "Prophet of the unknown? Okay, then you do the math for me. ”

Wei Chiran said: "Then let me tell you the next fortune." ”

Shane asked, "What luck?" ”

Shane looked at Wei Chiran suspiciously: "Is there anything else?" ”

Wei Chiran wanted to say, but that was all he could remember about the major events that happened in March 1916, and this was still some historical information that he had time to read before leaving, so Wei Chiran just shook his head and said: "I can't explain to you what is going on, but I know that your Xie family has secrets, and you are still in danger, and I also know that your master should come, but I don't know if it is before or after your death." ”

Shane was surprised: "You mean I'm going to die?" ”

Wei Chiran said: "Maybe, so I'm here to save you, I think your death must have something to do with your parents." ”

Shane still didn't believe it: "Tiger poison doesn't eat children, I don't believe my father would do this to me." ”

Wei Chiran asked: "You Xie family have a problem with feng shui, do you know?" ”

Xie En shook his head: "I don't know, my fourth uncle said that our Xie family's feng shui is excellent, and it is the best in the entire Jinmen." ”

Wei Chiran hurriedly talked about the layout of the Xie family, Xie En didn't believe it, Wei Chiran said: "If you don't believe it, you can hide your identity, just ask someone who understands feng shui, and then you will know that I didn't lie to you." ”

Xie En is not a person who likes to procrastinate, he immediately went out, searched for Mr. Yin and Yang and fortune tellers who are more famous in Jinmen, and inquired all the way, and found that what Wei Chiran said was indeed right, the feng shui of the Xie family is a great place, and the family should have been ruined a long time ago, not only that, but it will also affect three generations. But how did their Xie family become the head of the eight families of Jinmen?

When Xie En returned to the small mansion full of doubts, Wei Chiran was still waiting for him, and he knew it when he saw his expression.

Wei Chiran asked, "How?" ”

Shane just shook his head slightly: "Why is this happening?" ”

Wei Chiran said: "I want to talk to you about Xie Quan, that is, your uncle." ”

Shane said, "What does he have to talk about?" My uncle deserves it. ”

Wei Chi asked, "Aren't you strange?" ”

Shane asked, "What's weird?" ”

"Your Xie family doesn't let the eldest son inherit the family business, doesn't allow the eldest son to touch the business, and only lets him eat, drink and have fun all day long, if this continues, what kind of person will eventually become a beast like Xie Quan," Wei Chiran said this, watching Xie En's face change, "Although you are sober now, what will happen after a long time?" ”

Shane immediately said, "I will definitely not be like my uncle." ”

Wei Chiran asked: "Your uncle was sentenced to death when he was twenty-five years old, and you are about to turn twenty, according to logic, you are estimated to die at the age of twenty-five." ”

Shane got up in a hurry: "Impossible, but why is this?" Why is this so? ”

Wei Chiran said: "Now we have to investigate two things, first, to investigate in detail the situation of the eldest son of the three generations of your Xie family, when he was born, and when he died, and second, what is the origin of the foreigner in the German concession, I am not familiar with Jinmen, there are some things that you need to investigate, so let's do it, it is inconvenient for you to check your own home, I will investigate, and you go to investigate the foreigner." ”

Xie En said: "I'll ask my mother first, even if my father doesn't say anything, I don't believe my mother will hide it from me." After that, Xie En ignored Wei Chi's dissuasion, and left straight to return to Xie's house.
