Chapter 400: The Last Resort
Mages and mortals are two different worlds after all.
Xu Yan can grovel to Xie Sanshao for the sake of Xuanzhuguan, and he can also kill Xie Sanshao for Xuanzhuguan.
At both ends of the scale, it's just a matter of which side has enough chips.
Obviously, Zhou Yang's chip is much heavier than Xie Sanshao, who feels good about himself, and much heavier than the Xie family, who thinks he is the best in the world.
For Xu Yan's painful killer, Zhou Yang is not surprised.
From the first contact, he could see that Xu Yan is a person who can really do great things, can bend and stretch, and always pursues the most practical interests, and never cares about a little face.
This made Zhou Yang even more curious.
Such a Xu Yan, with enough vigilance and strength, in his previous life, how could he die silently in the back garden of the Xie family?
In addition to pushing it and letting the Xie family speed up towards the catastrophe, Xu Yan also gave Zhou Yang a big gift by the way, that is, the absolute majority of Xie Sanshao's share in the Yangli Stone Mine, 70%, was given to Zhou Yang.
For the current Zhou Yang, this money is no longer in his eyes.
Things have developed beyond his initial expectations, and the original idea of taking the Yangli Stone Mine is completely gone.
However, since Xu Yan took the initiative to send it to the door, Zhou Yang did not refuse it.
At this time, it is not just a matter of money, if he doesn't accept it, Xu Yan will be uneasy, for such a person, if he can't become a friend, then nine times out of ten he will become an enemy, although he doesn't care about Xuanzhuguan, but there is no need to increase the enemy.
In the foreseeable future, he will have more enemies and be stronger, and it would be good to have less.
Zhou Yang smiled at the elements of Yangli Stone Mine, Xu Yan was relieved, and then pushed it further, since he had already done it against the Xie family, then he must completely beat the Xie family to avoid future troubles!
Xuan Zhuguan is not Zhou Yang, but he can't withstand the Xie family's revenge, so the only choice is naturally to do things absolutely.
For Zhou Yang, the Xie family is already a thing of the past.
For a family like the Xie family, once there is an Achilles heel, there are not many forces that want to take the opportunity to kill them.
Zhou Yang and his parents sent Zhou Ying to Yan University to report.
Although it was a few days late, it didn't make a difference.
Everyone had a tacit understanding and did not mention the abduction that day, as if it had never happened.
Zhou Yang bought Zhou Ying a mobile phone and told her that if there was anything, call him, and he would rush to her side as soon as possible.
Zhou Ying pinched the phone, hesitated for a long time, and finally didn't say anything, hugged Zhou Yang fiercely, and then turned to leave.
From then on, she will start a life that was originally hers but has never experienced before.
Zhou Ying's life has opened a new starting point.
But for the Xie family, the road of life has come to an end.
Just after Xie Wu, Xie Er and Xie Da had accidents one after another, Xie Sanshao had an accident again, and he struck one after another and completely knocked down the old lady Xie, who was almost a hundred years old.
Mrs. Xie, who has never gone out since she lived in this mansion, was still sent to the hospital in the last few days of her life, but she couldn't object, she had been in a coma since she became ill, and she never woke up.
Xie Mingyuan was exhausted, taking care of his mother while trying his best to run around, hoping to reduce the damage to the Xie family as much as possible, especially in the case of their second generation being wiped out except for him, his greatest hope is to save some strength and leave some capital for the third generation to make a comeback, although he can't see a figure in the third generation who can re-carry the banner of the Xie family, but there is always hope, in case which junior is stimulated to work hard?
However, his progress is not great, whether it is Mrs. Xie's illness or saving the Xie family.
The hospital soon issued a series of critical illness notices.
Out of respect for Mrs. Xie's contributions, although the Xie family is still being severely cracked down, the senior leaders still came to the hospital to visit Mrs. Xie, and those who couldn't come by themselves also sent representatives, and the relevant departments also received instructions to start preparing for the old lady's funeral.
Everyone was waiting for Mrs. Xie to take her last breath.
No matter what, as long as Mrs. Xie is still alive, Mrs. Xie's former protégés will have to pull the Xie family for the sake of the old lady's face, but if Mrs. Xie dies, this incense will be over, and the second generation of the Xie family has no kindness to Mrs. Xie's former subordinates, and if they don't take the opportunity to fall into the ground, they are already very worthy of Mrs. Xie.
At this moment, everyone is shirking Xie Mingyuan's visit and pleading, neither agreeing nor refusing, just waiting for Mrs. Xie to breathe, but also waiting for the attitude of the big leader above.
And the big leaders above are obviously waiting for Mrs. Xie to last breathe before they come up with a final treatment plan for the Xie family.
After running in vain to no avail, Xie Mingyuan finally understood this, gave up this meaningless struggle, and began to guard Mrs. Xie in the hospital all day, hoping that Mrs. Xie would be able to wake up before the last breath, only sober for a short period of time, and put forward the final request to the organization, that would be enough, as long as Mrs. Xie mentioned to let go of the Xie family, then it would be more useful than Xie Siye's running for a year. After all, the Xie family has made great contributions to the founding of the Red Dynasty, and the organization is sometimes very humane, as long as Mrs. Xie speaks, she will definitely consider it, of course, if Mrs. Xie doesn't speak, then everyone is happy to pretend to be confused.
While guarding Mrs. Xie, Xie Mingyuan began to arrange for the juniors of the Xie family to leave the country just in case.
Mi Lijian can't go, Xie Minggao's experience has shown that this once free country is not friendly to the Xie family, and is even full of hostility.
So Xie Mingyuan sent several juniors to England, France and Germany respectively, and their eggs could not be put in one basket.
Until this time, Xie Mingyuan didn't think about going over to Zhou Yang to make peace.
His choice in the study is already the last chance, even if he goes to Zhou Yang again, it is just a humiliation.
He also did not dare to send anyone to take revenge on the Zhou family.
For a mysterious person like Zhou Yang who can casually set off a monstrous storm and knock the Xie family into a catastrophe, Xie Mingyuan is now afraid in his heart, he doesn't want to provoke Zhou Yang anymore, what he wants is that those juniors of the Xie family can not be angered by Zhou Yang, save their lives, and leave some hope for the Xie family.
On the day of the official opening of Yan University, Zhou Ying, as the representative of the new students, spoke at the opening ceremony.
Xie Mingyuan watched the opening ceremony on TV in his hospital room.
Zhou Ying on the stage was full of incomparable confidence and vigor, and every sentence was sound, winning warm applause like a wave of high waves.
That's this girl.
Because of her, the Qiu family, the richest man in Beining, fell, the Ye family, the overlord of the southern country, and now the Xie family, who is the king of the capital, will also fall.
If it is placed in ancient times, this is a standard disaster for the country and the people.
But now, no one knew that she was so dangerous, only those dazzling halos on her.
If she can successfully graduate from Yan University, her life will definitely be more exciting.
Xie Mingyuan was a little jealous of this girl.
Why was she so lucky to be unconditionally sheltered by a powerful being like Zhou Yang?
Why!
Why!
Just as Xie Mingyuan was staring at the TV, a sentence suddenly sounded behind him.
"Is that her?"
The voice was old and hoarse, but it was unusually calm.
Xie Mingyuan was surprised and delighted, and turned around sharply, only to see that Mrs. Xie, who had been lying for more than ten days, sat up from the hospital bed, staring at the TV screen with blazing eyes, and did not look seriously ill and dying at all.
This is the last time to shine back.
While Xie Mingyuan's heart was sour, he immediately picked up his mobile phone.
He needs his mother to see the relevant people immediately, pass the last request to the ears of the big leaders above, and spread the hope of the Xie family's survival!
"Don't call, I'm not going to intercede with them!" Old Lady Xie's voice was cold, "Our old man, we have made meritorious contributions to the Red Dynasty by shedding blood, and now that the people are gone, they bully us orphans and widows like this, why should I bow to them, why should I plead with them?" Si'er, I have never bowed my head in my life, and I will never bow my head before I die! Your father said that relying on everyone to run and rely on the mountains and mountains to fall, it is better to ask for oneself than to ask for others! Tell me, is it because of this girl that our Xie family will suffer so much? ”
Xie Mingyuan lowered his head and replied with a dark expression, "Yes, her name is Zhou Ying, she is a freshman of Yan University, the champion of this year's national science college entrance examination, the fifth child tested a hexagram at that time, and wanted to use her to ascend to immortal to seek consummation......"
"I don't want to hear that!" Mrs. Xie patted the hospital bed angrily, "Since it's because of her, why don't you kill her, and do you still want her to go to college in a good way?" Do you still want her to stand proudly on the bones of our Xie family in the future? Go kill her, go kill her! Those who owe our Xie family and harm our Xie family, kill them all, let everyone know that our Xie family is not easy to mess with! ”
Xie Mingyuan looked at Mrs. Xie helplessly, thinking to himself, saying that he would be extraordinarily sober when he returned to the light, it was nonsense, although this old lady was sober, she was becoming more and more confused, did she have to waste this last chance to save the Xie family?
He was unwilling, but there was nothing he could do, if Mrs. Xie did not cooperate with her plea, it would be impossible for the above to show mercy to the Xie family, and it was impossible for this last request to be relayed, even if he was Mrs. Xie's son, there were staff in the room next to him, and they were also waiting for Mrs. Xie to wake up, in order to record her final request.
"You think I'm confused, do you?" Old Mrs. Xie looked at Xie Mingyuan with sarcasm, "You always thought I was an old fool, no, it was your brothers who always thought that I was an old fool as a mother, and never listened to me, and never told me anything." Let me tell you, I'm sober, it's not mortals who deal with us, it's mages, maybe even immortals, right! So what's the use of us starting with mortals? Those white-eyed wolves, let them die, our Xie family doesn't ask them. ”
The old lady cursed indignantly, and took off a necklace from her neck with shaking hands.
This is a necklace that she has worn for a lifetime, and Xie Mingyuan has never seen her take it off since she can remember.
This chain pendant is a short small sword, golden, hollowed, inlaid with red gemstones, the shape is extremely exquisite, at first glance it is not ordinary, but I don't know what the way it came from.
Old Lady Xie ordered: "Si'er, come here, kneel down, raise your hands, palms facing me!" ”
Xie Mingyuan didn't know why, hesitated for a moment, but still walked over, knelt on the side of the bed, and raised his hands high, as if in a kneeling posture of surrender.
Old Lady Xie held the small sword, and suddenly cut through the palm of Xie Mingyuan's left hand, and the blood gushing out dyed the small sword red.
But that layer of blood red was quickly sucked in by the little sword.
The little sword reverted back to its original golden appearance.
Old Lady Xie hung the small sword around Xie Ming's neck.
Such two simple actions exhausted her strength, she leaned weakly on the head of the bed, panting and said to Xie Mingyuan: "Si'er, our Xie family has a big secret, back then, your father supported the fifth child to cultivate immortals, it was because of this secret that he hoped that the fifth child would be successful in cultivation and take over this secret." When he died, the fifth child had not achieved anything, and this thing has always existed with me. This is the foundation of our Xie family, with such a thing, as long as there is one person in our Xie family alive, we can make a comeback! Si'er, now I'll give it to you, you swear to me, you will definitely kill that little slut named Zhou Ying, you will definitely kill the bastard who harmed our family, quick, swear, swear now! ”
"I swear, all those who harm our Xie family and owe our Xie family will be asked for back one by one, if not, let me Xie Ming hit five thunderbolts in the sky, die without a place to be buried, file bones and ashes, and never be reincarnated!"
Xie Mingyuan held up his bleeding palm and swore, and the blood flowed down his arm to his elbow and then fell to the floor in a trickle.
"Good! This is the descendant of our Xie family! Old Lady Xie grabbed Xie Mingyuan's bleeding hand, and her strength was surprisingly great, "In my room, behind the statue of Guanyin, there is a keyhole, use this to open the lock, you can see that thing, as long as you see that thing, you know what to use......
Mrs. Xie used her last strength to finish this sentence, and then collapsed on the bed and did not move!
The last big tree that sheltered the Xie family fell.
The memorial service began to be prepared step by step.
Before the official completion of the memorial service, the Xie family is still safe.
But it was only safe until the memorial service was over.
Xie Mingyuan took time out of his busy schedule, returned home, entered Mrs. Xie's house, opened the door hidden behind the Guanyin statue, and saw that thing!
