Chapter 44: Killing Chickens and Monkeys?
Just when everyone just walked into Zheng's house.
"Mr. Xiao." Another voice came from the side.
The sound was very pleasant, like a heavenly sound.
Chen Xucan wondered, how could anyone know Xiao Chen wherever he went?
He followed the direction from which the voice came, and the next moment, his eyes widened, and for a moment he forgot to withdraw his gaze.
Because it was a woman, and that woman was so beautiful, she was like a fairy.
Although in terms of appearance alone, in fact, Huang Xiaoai is not much inferior to the other party.
But the woman in front of her has a feeling that people will fall into it at a glance.
This woman is Li Yue.
Li Yue even knew Xiao Chen? And looking at Li Yue's initiative to greet Xiao Chen, are the two still very familiar?
Who doesn't know that Li Yue is the first goddess of Linzhou. In addition to having a good relationship with Zhou Cang, the eldest and youngest of the Zhou family, there has never been any scandal with any other man.
She rarely appears in public, and she is not fake to other men.
But now, he looks familiar with Xiao Chen.
For a while, Chen Xucan's heart was suddenly full of jealousy.
Not to mention Chen Xucan, even Li Qiang on the side glanced at Xiao Chen a little strangely.
As the head of Linzhou City, it is naturally impossible for him not to know about Li Yue, a woman.
Unexpectedly, Xiao Chen and Li Yue also have a friendship.
Xiao Chen nodded slightly towards Li Yue.
But Huang Xiaoai hurriedly grabbed Xiao Chen's arm, then looked at Li Yue with a hostile face, and snorted coldly, "Hmph! ”
Li Yue smiled slightly, "Xiao Ai, I am also your sister-in-law, you don't have to be so hostile to me." ”
Huang Xiaoai ignored her at all, "Xiao Chen, let's go." ”
Xiao Chen was helpless for a while, but he and Li Yue really didn't have any friendship. A nod and a hello is enough.
It's just that before Xiao Chen and the others could continue to move forward, another voice sounded not far away, "Mr. Xiao, I knew that you would definitely come." What about Mr. Qin, why didn't he come? ”
As the words fell, I saw a group of people walking towards this side.
Chen Xucan looked over, and at this glance, he almost didn't bite his tongue off.
It was also an old man, with a group of middle-aged men and women.
"Zhou Haoming, the head of the Zhou family, and Zhou Yunshan, the second eldest of the Zhou family...... The one at the front, could it be the old man of the Zhou family, Zhou Wangtian? Chen Xucan only felt that he was completely messy.
The Zhou family is the number one wealthy family in Linzhou.
Zhou Wangtian's identity, even if you look at the entire Linzhou, is one of the best.
However, even Zhou Wangtian was so polite to Xiao Chen, calling Xiao Chen Mr. Xiao? Even Qin Shan, who was beside Xiao Chen, was also called Mr. Qin.
What's going on here?
Even Li Yue looked at Xiao Chen, his eyes flashed slightly.
Li Qiang was also in his heart, and when he saw Zhou Wangtian, he hurriedly bowed politely, "Old Zhou, I haven't seen you for many years." ”
Even if he is the first official person in Linzhou, when he sees Zhou Wangtian, he has to be polite.
"It's you, I haven't seen you for a few years." Zhou Wangtian saw Li Qiang, but he only nodded slightly, completely lacking his enthusiasm for Xiao Chen.
The corners of Li Qiang's mouth twitched.
At this moment, even he had to face Xiao Chen a little bit.
It seems that Xiao Chen should really have some ability. Otherwise, why did the Liang family, Li Yue, and even the Zhou family all be so polite to Xiao Chen?
Xiao Chen only bowed his head slightly, did not answer Zhou Wangtian's question, and then walked directly towards the Zheng family.
Zhou Wangtian and the others did not dare to have any dissatisfaction.
Although they don't know Xiao Chen's true identity, they know Xiao Chen's origin, which must be very amazing. Even if they are the Zhou family, they will definitely not be able to provoke them.
Soon, everyone came to the Zheng family's living room.
In the living room, a lot of people have already gathered.
As Xiao Chen walked into the living room, many people's eyes suddenly fell on Xiao Chen's body.
Most of the people who came here today were people who attended the dinner three days ago, so they naturally knew Xiao Chen.
Seeing that Xiao Chen's side was not following Qin Shan, they were slightly stunned, and then they all sneered.
Obviously, they also believed that Xiao Chen relied on Qin Shan to hurt Huang Yangzhen.
Qin Shan didn't come today, but Tianhai Alliance came to a Wu Gui Shangxian who was more powerful than Huang Yang. Later, I'm afraid Xiao Chen won't be able to deal with it at all.
Xiao Chen ignored them and sat down directly.
Huang Xiaoai and Chen Xucan sat next to Xiao Chen, and as for Zhou Wangtian and Liang Zhengwu and others, they were noble, so they naturally sat in the front row.
"It's coming!" Just as everyone was sneering, someone suddenly exclaimed.
Immediately, I saw Zheng Qinghai and Zheng Yunqi, with Huang Yang Zhenren, and another middle-aged man walking in.
The middle-aged man was not tall, only about 1.6 meters. He has long gray hair and sparkling eyes, which is quite a vision, and it is unusual to look at.
This person should be Wu Gui, the elder of the Tianhai Alliance.
"Huh!" Even when Xiao Chen saw Wu Gui, his eyes flashed slightly.
"Not a warrior." Xiao Chen was a little surprised, the power in this Wu Gui's body was surging, and it was very strong.
Moreover, that strength is different from internal force, which proves that Wu Gui is not a martial artist.
At this time, Wu Gui had already been invited by Zheng Qinghai to sit down on the main seat.
Even Zheng Qinghai, the head of the Zheng family, was standing behind him.
"Ladies and gentlemen, I already said the purpose of inviting you here last time." Zheng Qinghai said directly: "This is one of the ten elders of the Tianhai Alliance, Wu Gui Shangxian. ”
"Wu Gui Shangxian has cultivated to the body of an earth immortal, and his strength is amazing. Moreover, do you know how old Wu Gui Shangxian is now? ”
Everyone was slightly stunned, looked at Wu Gui's appearance, and spoke one after another, "Fifty years old? ”
"No, since the Zheng family master asked so, Wu Gui Shangxian's age must be older than it seems. Is it seventy years old? ”
Wu Gui's appearance looks like he is forty or fifty years old. If you are really seventy years old, it is very amazing.
Zheng Qinghai shook his head and said with a smile: "Wu Gui Shangxian is one hundred and eight years old this year. ”
"What?" As Zheng Qinghai's words fell, everyone exclaimed.
Centenarians, even in modern times, are very rare.
And Wu Gui, who is more than a hundred years old, has grown into forty or fifty years old, how can everyone not be shocked?
Could this really be an immortal?
Especially the few old guys present were even more excited and suddenly got up.
Those who can sit here are all rich people.
The money earned is enough to live in luxury for a lifetime. Isn't it health and longevity that you desire?
If they can really be dozens of years younger and pay a big price, they are willing.
Zheng Qinghai was very satisfied with everyone's reactions, and continued to speak at this time: "After the Tianhai Alliance is stationed in Linzhou, you will all have the opportunity to worship the Tianhai Alliance. Although it is difficult to cultivate to the level of Wu Gui Shangxian, it is definitely not a lie to prolong life and be free of diseases and disasters. ”
Many people glanced at each other, and they were all excited, and then one person stood up, "I agree with the Tianhai League to be stationed in Linzhou." ”
Immediately after that, the second person also stood up, "I agree!" ”
Seeing this, the others got up one after another, "I agree." ”
Soon, there were only people from the Liang family, the Zhou family, Li Yue, Li Qiang, and Xiao Chen and a few other people in the audience, still sitting.
Old guys like Liang Zhengwu and Zhou Wangtian control a big family, and they are old and sophisticated, where is it so easy to fool?
This kind of pie-in-the-sky thing, they don't believe it easily.
Moreover, even if the Tianhai Alliance really has such ability.
But they went to such great lengths to get their support and enter Linzhou. What is sought is certainly more amazing.
Therefore, they will not take a position easily.
As for Li Qiang, as the city lord, it is even more impossible to sit back and ignore the chaos of the Tianhai Alliance.
Zheng Qinghai glanced at Liang Zhengwu, Zhou Wangtian and the others, and was about to speak.
Suddenly, Wu Guiyi waved his hand and stopped Zheng Qinghai from speaking.
Then his eyes swept around, "Ben Shangxian heard that three days ago, someone injured my Tianhai League's Huang Yang Deacon. And said wildly, saying that if my Tianhai League stepped into Linzhou half a step, I would bear the consequences. ”
"Is that person here?"
Almost as soon as his words fell, the people sitting in front of Xiao Chen hurriedly moved out of the way to both sides, exposing Xiao Chen to Wu Gui's sight.
At the same time, they all sneered and looked at Xiao Chen gloatingly.
Obviously, Wu Gui is going to take Xiao Chen's prestige and make an example of the monkey.
