Chapter 12: Xiao Lu is the most powerful
An Yuanxiu began to hide the identity of his An family from 7 years ago and entered the metaphysical world to experience, in order to be valued in the metaphysical society as a "regular person" who does not rely on the family, he will not refuse any task from sending talismans to Kanyu array, and finally has the status of today's "senior regular person", even if he doesn't have to specially arrange a seat, he is also qualified to sit at the top.
In the circle of "regular people", An Yuanxiu has long been comparable to the status of several major families in the metaphysical world, but in front of the family, even if it is a small family with a small name, some people will have the confidence of looking down on An Yuanxiu.
Everyone in the hall saw that it was a young upright person who spoke lightly about the survival of the Metaphysical Society, and committed the old problem of "respecting the family", and began to preach to An Yuanxiu, accusing him of not knowing the height of the sky and speaking lightly, and sneering at him, a regular person, who was too young to be whimsical.
Zhu Feilu knew that An Yuanxiu was not a person who liked to be in the limelight, and it was also out of the urgency of the situation that he asked everyone to do the right thing first, although it was expected that he was ridiculed and preached by everyone in the Xuan Society, he still couldn't help but want to be upset for An Yuanxiu, after all, it was also An Yuanxiu who concluded that this incident was borrowed collectively.
Zhu Feilu was about to stand up and refute in another accusation of "I don't know the height of the sky", but the hand that was supported on the armrest of the seat was held down by An Yuanxiu beside him, Zhu Feilu turned his head and saw An Yuanxiu shaking his head lightly at him, and then raised his chin and pointed to An Zhiheng, who was sitting at the head of the family.
I saw An Zhiheng smile slightly as if he knew that An Zhu and the two were looking at him, and then stopped the quarrel in the hall with the same light and heavy volume as normal speaking.
"Don't judge people by their appearance, don't hide it, it's this ...... The little brother investigated and determined the fact of collective borrowing without us noticing. ”
An Zhiheng's volume was not loud, but he deliberately used the power of the power to send the voice to everyone's ears, using a hand that requires deep power and spell skills - and An Zhiheng did not use physical rune paper, but directly turned the power into a charm, and the low-key and dazzling operation looked like a friendly persuasion, which was actually a deterrent to everyone.
Everyone in the hall finally regained their quiet under the oppression of strong strength, and occasionally there were one or two whispers of "who knows if it was a blind cat that touched a dead mouse" The unwilling complaint was also completely silenced under An Zhiheng's smiling eyes and the reminder of the person next to him bumping his arm.
Zhu Feilu saw An Yuanxiu's expected expression, and understood that this was the temporary but tacit understanding of the An family's uncle and nephew.
"The third uncle is the most protective, especially to protect us juniors, these people in the metaphysical world can't be counted on in this incident, I have to take the lead in this incident, so I joined forces with the third uncle to come here temporarily." An Yuanxiu leaned into Zhu Feilu's ear and explained softly, with the joy of successfully cooperating with the third uncle and the pride of the third uncle in his tone.
Zhu Feilu couldn't help but lower his head and smile when he saw An Yuanxiu couldn't help but show off the child's show-off behavior.
The interaction between the two was seen by An Zhiheng, and he silently slandered "good boy" in his heart, and after deciding to go back and gossip about An Yuanxiu, An Zhiheng began to get down to business.
"Has everyone's mood calmed down?" Seeing that everyone was speechless, An Zhiheng nodded with satisfaction and continued: "So as for the 'solution to the crisis' proposed by this young man, can any righteous person put forward any ideas? ”
When everyone in the hall heard this, they looked at each other, and the people who were only thinking about their own way out obviously did not think about this problem.
An Zhiheng threw a look at An Yuanxiu at this time, signaling him to stand up quickly, and the degree of flexibility in his expression was not at all like the three masters of a metaphysical family.
An Yuanxiu and Zhu Feilu looked at An Zhiheng helplessly and funny, and before An Zhiheng's expression was so big that he was about to be discovered by everyone in the hall, An Yuanxiu finally stood up.
"For such a large-scale collective borrowing, according to the conditions of borrowing, if you want to collect the belongings of the borrowed people one by one, it will not only consume energy but also be easy to find."
At this juncture, An Yuanxiu became the focus of the audience as soon as he opened his mouth, and in the eyes of everyone, he continued: "And almost all the borrowers of this incident should not know about the existence of the metaphysical world, how to find so many customers in a short period of time, presumably there should be something in common between these borrowers and borrowers in the near future." ”
Hearing An Yuanxiu's analysis, many people felt that there was some truth, and An Yuanxiu's brain was also running rapidly while he was talking.
"We can't verify who the borrower is, so have the confirmed borrowers recently participated in any activities or obtained anything?" An Yuanxiu asked everyone in the field.
Infected by An Yuanxiu's attitude, everyone became serious, and because things seemed to have a breakthrough, they found their way, and quickly rummaged through their own information in their hands.
But the enthusiasm that had just been mustered gradually subsided under the continuous rummaging, and no one found the common ground in this aspect of the borrower. An Yuanxiu also stroked his chin and fell into thought with a "no".
Zhu Feilu saw that everyone was trying to be idle, and he felt a little anxious, he looked at An Yuanxiu, who was still trying to think calmly in this situation, and also forced himself to calm down.
After carefully combing An Yuanxiu's words just now, Zhu Feilu thought of a direction, but he was not confident in his thoughts, so he subconsciously reached out and tugged at An Yuanxiu's sleeve beside him, and cautiously said that he had an idea, let An Yuanxiu listen to it first and then decide whether to tell everyone.
An Yuanxiu smiled when he heard this, preventing Zhu Feilu from telling him his thoughts, but patted the other party's shoulder and asked him to speak by himself, and at the same time nodded to the third uncle who had been paying attention to the two on the stage, and motioned for him to help Zhu Feilu. Zhu Feilu, who was encouraged by An Yuanxiu and the third uncle, finally mustered up the courage to stand up, and at the same time unconsciously began to disguise the "cold personality" that he was used to when meeting people.
"Although...... Although the borrower cannot be verified now, we are sure that there are several families involved in the borrowing, since this common point requires the participation of all the borrowers and the borrower, and the borrower cannot be found, so it is okay to compare the known borrowers at present? ”
Zhu Feilu finished these words with a steady appearance, and then sat down when An Zhiheng encouraged everyone to start rummaging through the information, and the back that had been straight when he spoke finally relaxed silently.
An Yuanxiu patted him on the back comfortingly, Zhu Feilu slowed down for a while before showing him a somewhat tired smile, An Yuanxiu saw this and said "well done" silently, his hand still stayed on his shoulder and did not move.
Feeling the warmth from An Yuanxiu's palm on his shoulder, Zhu Feilu smiled quietly.
"Found it!" Someone in the conference hall shouted excitedly, attracting the attention of others, An Yuanxiu also turned to look over there, but his hand still did not leave Zhu Feilu's shoulder.
With such silent support and protection, Zhu Feilu turned his head to look over there with peace of mind, and actively participated in everyone's discussion.
In the question of "what did you find", a young man from a family who spoke just now stood up excitedly.
"I have several known borrowers involved in the information I have just found out that they all participated in an auction held in Beicheng on May 15th!"
As soon as the young man's voice fell, there was a sound of searching for information in the hall. An Yuanxiu and Zhu Feilu also checked the information of the responsible part of the An family and the Qi family.
"Sure enough! The Li family, who I am in charge of, also participated in this auction! ”
"I've found it here, too!"
"The one I'm in charge of didn't attend...... But their family was borrowed, what happened? ”
"The one I'm in charge of doesn't have either...... Shouldn't they be a contact where everyone participates? ”
Some families and Zhengzheng people in the hall found information about participating in this auction from the families they were responsible for investigating, but a large number of borrowed families did not participate.
Everyone was a little confused for a while, and at first they found out that this auction was a part of the young people who borrowed the common point, and in everyone's feedback and doubts, they also began to wonder if they had made a mistake.
An Yuanxiu and Zhu Feilu found in Mr. Wang's information that Mr. Wang also participated in the auction, but the Wu family, who was also borrowed, did not participate in the auction, and the Donghu Wei family and the Zhao family, who were most likely cross-borrowed from the Wang family and the Wu family, also confirmed that they participated in the auction in the investigation materials.
The two looked at each other with some doubts, An Yuanxiu thought about it and called Qi Yaang first, asking the Qi family to confirm whether the Wu family had participated in the auction on May 15. And Zhu Feilu has been thinking about the law between those who participate in the auction and those who do not.
An Yuanxiu finished calling and waited for Qi Yaang to give him feedback, and when he turned around, he saw Zhu Feilu who was immersed in thought, looking at Zhu Feilu's serious appearance, An Yuanxiu smiled lightly.
He leaned closer to Zhu Feilu and asked softly in his ear, "What did you think of?" ”
"Hmm...... I wonder if not all of the borrowers participated in the auction, but all known borrowers seemed to be involved? Will there be any ...... Yes! ”
Zhu Feilu was immersed in thinking and said while thinking, and when he thought of something and turned his head to discuss it with An Yuanxiu, he was frightened by An Yuanxiu, who was sitting close to him almost face to face, and let out a low exclamation.
After the fright, Zhu Feilu, who felt a little embarrassed because of the close distance between the two, realized that his face had already become hot.
An Yuanxiu didn't seem to notice such an unnatural performance of Zhu Feilu, who was obviously uncomfortable but unwilling to retreat, but still kept a close distance and smiled, and asked him gently, "Will there be anything?" ”
"Huh? …… Oh! I...... I mean, will there be any ...... The borrower does not need to have contact with the borrower...... The way to intercept the number of fortunes...... Zhu Feilu looked at An Yuanxiu who was close in front of him, his eyes fluttered from side to side uncomfortably, and his voice became smaller and smaller because the other party was too focused on direct gaze.
"Well, what Xiao Lu said makes sense, so it can explain why the borrowers didn't all participate in the auction, but is there such a method?" An Yuanxiu looked at Zhu Feilu with a smile, as if he was discussing sincerely and asking questions as if he was teasing.
Zhu Feilu tried his best to ignore An Yuanxiu's strong sense of existence, closed his eyes, and swallowed unconsciously once before opening his mouth again before barely keeping his voice shaking: "We, the Zhu family, are studying spells, and from the theory of borrowing and using charms, the most important thing is to intercept the fortune of the person being borrowed." ”
Zhu Feilu said that his professional field gradually became serious: "As long as the number of fortunes is intercepted, you can borrow it through charms, and in this process, the borrower may not necessarily have to contact the borrower." ”
An Yuanxiu's expression finally regained his seriousness when he heard Zhu Feilu's words, he stepped back to a position where he did not put pressure on Zhu Feilu, nodded and motioned for Zhu Feilu to continue.
Zhu Feilu saw the other party retreat and exhaled silently, only then did he regain his stability and continued: "Intercepting the number of fortunes includes getting the eight characters of the birthday, handwritten letters, etc., and the purpose of personal contact is to connect the number of the borrower and the number of the person being borrowed. ”
Hearing this, An Yuanxiu stroked his chin and asked a question: "Then if that's the case, wouldn't it be very simple to borrow luck?" After all, most of the time we verify the borrowing, and personal contact is a very important starting link. ”
"So this is just theoretical, in fact, it is a forbidden art, and the metaphysical world of charms in this area is not allowed to study, and you should know this very well, Brother Yuan Xiu."
Zhu Feilu, who was affirmed by An Yuanxiu, continued: "From the perspective of the Charm Family, our Zhu family can put forward such an assumption, but in fact, there is not necessarily such a charm that can connect the number of fortunes without personal contact, at least there is no orthodox charm that the Zhu family learns. ”
"Well, I see, according to this principle, if it weren't for the charm, there might be other ways to connect the fortunes, at least this assumption can now support the May 15 auction, which may really be the cause of this luck storm." An Yuanxiu made a bold guess on Zhu Feilu's thoughts.
It just so happened that Qi Yaang's phone call came, and after confirming that although the Wu family did not participate in the auction, they received the invitation to the auction, An Yuanxiu almost determined in his heart that the auction on May 15 was the cause of this turmoil.
An Yuanxiu sat there combing his thoughts, his eyes looking at somewhere as if he was empty, but the fingers that unconsciously tapped back and forth on the table revealed that he was thinking.
An Yuanxiu, who had come to a conclusion and the next step in his heart, withdrew his hand and clenched it into a fist, his eyes became clear for a moment, and Zhu Feilu, who had been watching from the side, knew that he already had an idea when he saw An Yuanxiu's appearance.
An Yuanxiu turned his head and saw Zhu Feilu staring at him, smiled, and then suddenly approached him, and subconsciously closed his eyes when Zhu Feilu saw that the other party's infinitely enlarged face was almost pasted.
The expected collision or contact did not come, Zhu Feilu's closed eyes and eyelashes trembled, and just when he wanted to open one eye to look at An Yuanxiu, he suddenly felt a warm air flow in his ears.
An Yuanxiu's laughing voice sounded softly in his ears: "Why did you close your eyes, huh?" The tail note was as sultry as a small hook, but the words spoken by the other party made Zhu Feilu embarrassed to get under the table.
Although An Yuanxiu did not debunk whether Zhu Feilu wanted to go somewhere else, Zhu Feilu seemed to hear the meaning of his words.
An Yuanxiu didn't give Zhu Feilu too much time to be embarrassed, nor did he want Zhu Feilu to say what he meant to be embarrassed, he still leaned into Zhu Feilu's ear and then said: "Xiao Lu's idea is really helpful, I will tell the third uncle later and let him hand over the leadership of this incident to us, but in order to protect you and the position of the Zhu family, I will not mention your participation." ”
Zhu Feilu listened to An Yuanxiu's words slowly becoming serious, opened his eyes and lowered his head slightly, just wanted An Yuanxiu to do what he thought, he understood his good intentions, only to hear An Yuanxiu continue: "Although I won't mention you, I understand that Xiao Lu is very smart, this time Xiao Lu really helped a lot, in my heart, Xiao Lu is the most powerful." ”
After speaking, An Yuanxiu stepped back and stood up, patted Zhu Feilu on the shoulder and asked him to wait for him not to run around, and walked in the direction of the third uncle.
Leaving Zhu Feilu stunned in place, An Yuanxiu's last words sounded in his head over and over again, and even he didn't notice that the half of An Yuanxiu's ear that was talking to him just now was already red as if it was about to drip blood.
