Chapter 431: Secret Talk
I couldn't figure it out, but the old man didn't intend to explain.
After a brief chat with me, the old man planned to take Cao Hongbin back to Baiwu Mountain to find Zhao Dekai Xingshi to ask for the guilt, and his actions were immediately stopped by all of us.
I told the old man that today's Baiwu Mountain is no longer the Baiwu Mountain of the past, and beside Zhao Dekai, there is one more person named Yi Qingping, according to Old Man Wei, this person's cultivation is very powerful, and he can even compete with the Yin soldiers, and there are some evil sect techniques that we have never seen.
At the beginning, the old man stubbornly thought that he was a hidden elder and a horn-bearer, and no matter what, Zhao Dekai couldn't do anything to him.
I told him that Zhao Dekai might not dare to do anything to him, but those who buried the sect did not have such a bottom line. In desperation, I briefly talked about some of the experiences of fighting with the Funeral Sect over the years, mentioning the matter of the Outer Heavenly Master, and also mentioning the tragic death of Diao Shubin.
Hearing these statements from me, the old man seemed to recognize the danger of the burial cult and dispelled his reckless thoughts.
Under our persuasion, the old man finally went back to the top of the building with us, and walked through the roof to the residence of the eldest lady of the Cao family.
Although the old man is very cultivated, but after all, he is old, and it is indeed a little difficult for him to climb the roof, but fortunately, Liu Shangang brought a rope, and we were able to pull the old man to the roof with a rope, and hung him with a rope, so that he could smoothly enter the house of the eldest lady of the Cao family.
In addition to the old man, there is another person who was hung by us with a rope, needless to say, that person is, of course, Cao Hongbin, but when we treat the old man, we are always light-handed, for fear that he will scrape and rub, but when we treat Cao Hongbin, it is a big tie, how to toss and how to toss, not polite at all.
By the time he was transported to the eldest lady's house, there were five or six more bruises on his head alone.
When the old lady found out that the old man who was following us was the Elder of the Hidden World, she was also taken aback, but she also knew that now was not the time to catch up with the old days, so she politely approached the Elder of the Hidden World into the house and made tea, but she lacked the due greetings.
And a few of us didn't delay too much time, and after asking a few masterminds of the Shaozhuang faction from Cao Hongbin's mouth, we took advantage of the middle of the night to start the operation.
The Shaozhuang faction of the Cao family is divided into four branches, Cao Hongbin is the largest line, and there are also Cao Zhongzheng, Cao Hongli and Cao Kaiyang, among which Cao Zhongzheng's qualifications are the oldest, in terms of generation, he and the eldest wife of the Cao family should be regarded as the same generation, but because he was born late, he did not catch up with the older generation of the Cao family, and he also became a powerless and powerless young Zhuang faction.
In fact, when I first heard the term "Shaozhuang faction", I thought that its members were all young people, but Cao Hongbin was only forty years old, Cao Zhongzheng was fifty years old, Cao Hongli was in his early forties, and only Cao Kaiyang was a descendant who was less than thirty years old.
It was only then that I realized that the so-called young Zhuang faction is actually a group of people who do not have enough say in the family and have nothing to do all day long, so that they have nowhere to vent their energy.
Our task is to control all these people, while the old lady is responsible for liaising with the old people in the family who have been elevated and convincing them to cooperate with Yan Xiaotian.
After capturing Cao Hongbin, we found Cao Zhongzheng and Cao Hongli from the clan tower one after another, these two people are a lot worse than Cao Hongbin in terms of kung fu and cultivation, except for the slight difficulty in entering and exiting the place where they live, there is almost no difficulty in arresting.
In the end, we sneaked into Cao Kaiyang's residence, but there was no one in his house. We waited until about one o'clock in the middle of the night when he came back drunk, and when we bundled him into rice dumplings and sent him to the old lady's house, his wine had not subsided, and he remained asleep.
We have controlled several leaders of the Shaozhuang faction on our side, but the old lady has not yet said anything about the old people in the Tong clan.
She was holding the phone in her hand, looking a little helpless, and a few of us sat in the room, and neither of us spoke much. After all, we really can't talk about things like this, and we can't help them.
At this time, the Elder of the Hidden World picked up the teacup, first took a sip of herbal tea, and then said to the old lady, "Mrs. Cao, there is something I want to ask. ”
The old lady was also very respectful to the hermit elder: "Please ask the elder for advice." ”
The elder was silent for a moment before he spoke, "Now, are the clan elders of the Cao family still the same clan elders as they were at the beginning?" ”
The old lady nodded: "Since the husband disappeared, the elders of the Cao family have not changed again, and they are still the same people as before." ”
The elder also nodded: "That's right." Then these old people should still know me. In this way, the patriarch of the Cao family, it is still up to me to say the item, no matter what, they will sell me more or less a face. ”
The old lady smiled: "If the elder is willing to go out, it must be foolproof......
The elder waved his hand, interrupting the old lady, and then turned to me again: "If you want me to go out, you can, but there is a premise, I want to meet Yan Xiaotian first." When I figured out what this kid was trying to do, I could decide whether to help him or not. ”
I pondered for a moment and nodded, "Okay." ”
I can feel that whether it is the eldest lady of the Cao family or the elder of the hidden world, they all regard the struggle between Yan Xiaotian and Zhao Dekai as a simple struggle between the two powers.
The struggle between Yan Xiaotian and Zhao Dekai certainly involved the struggle for the position of the leader, but I remember very well that when I first met Yan Xiaotian, he still respected Zhao Dekai very much.
And just when he just started to do business with Jisoul Village, he still had a huge luck mentality, hoping that Zhao Dekai would change his mind.
So I said that if you only regard what Yan Xiaotian is doing now as a power struggle between him and Zhao Dekai, it is because I don't understand Yan Xiaotian as a person.
But like these things, even if I say it, Mrs. Cao and the hermit elders probably don't want to believe it, in their eyes, the struggle for power is the struggle for power, what is concerned about Baiwu Mountain, what is forced to do, it is all.
Under the guidance of Mrs. Cao, a few of us and the Hidden Elders left the Cao family building, passed the path between the family building and the coal yard, and returned to the place where we stored our bicycles.
There is no frame behind this mountain bike, there is no way to take people, and we can't let the hidden elders walk, and with the current situation in the city, take a taxi, maybe the driver is Zhao Dekai's person. Let Yan Xiaotian pick it up? Zhao Dekai's eyeliner is all over the whole process, as long as he is close to the area where the Cao family building is located, it is estimated that Zhao Dekai will soon know, and at the same time, he will suspect that something has happened to the Cao family.
There was no way, in the end, Liu Shangang called Lao Zhai and asked him to come and pick us up.
Lao Zhai was already asleep at that time, but after receiving a call from Liu Shangang, he drove to pick us up without saying a word.
Because we were worried that Yan Xiaotian's mobile phone would be monitored, we did not contact him in advance, but asked Lao Zhai to drive the car directly to Yan Xiaotian's residence.
As early as a few days ago, Liu Shangang got Yan Xiaotian's detailed address, but Yan Xiaotian didn't know about it.
When I knocked on Yan Xiaotian's door, I waited for a long time and there was a sound of footsteps on the other side of the door, and then the door was opened, and Yan Xiaotian's face emerged through the crack in the door.
I had been worried that he wasn't at home.
He had already slept, and when he came to open the door, he was still wearing pajamas and pajamas, and he pulled the doorknob with one hand, rubbed his eyes with the other, and asked sleepily what I was doing with him so late.
At this time, the Elder of the Hidden World walked out from behind me and took a picture with Yan Xiaotian.
At first, Yan Xiaotian didn't seem to realize who was standing in front of him, but after a short while, his lazy face showed an expression that was about to drop his jaw.
Yan Xiaotian wanted to exclaim again, but he didn't dare to make too much noise, and shouted in a very strange tone: "Master? How did you get here? ”
The hermit elder of Baiwu Mountain is Yan Xiaotian's ancestor? Why haven't I heard anyone mention it before?
I remember that the old master and Zhao Dekai are brothers, in other words, the old man in front of him is the master of the old master and Zhao Dekai.
After speaking, Yan Xiaotian looked at me again and threw out two questions in a row: "How did you find my ancestor?" How do you know I live here? ”
Without waiting for me to respond, the Hidden World Elder patted Yan Xiaotian on the shoulder and said, "There are some things I want to ask you. ”
Yan Xiaotian hurriedly opened the door to the maximum and respectfully invited the Hidden Elder into the room.
I wanted to go in with me, but as soon as the Elder of the Hidden World crossed the threshold, he turned his head and said to me, "I want to talk to Xiaotian alone." ”
I smiled and nodded, and stayed where I was.
After he entered, he closed the door, and as for what he talked about with Yan Xiaotian later, the few of us didn't know at all, and even Liu Shangang, who had excellent hearing, didn't hear what they said.
Half an hour later, the Elder of the Hidden World walked out of Yan Xiaotian's house alone, and as soon as he went out, he kept staring at me intently, and it took a long time before he asked me, "How many of you came up with it?" ”
I didn't immediately understand what he meant, just "Huh? "Yes.
The Hidden Elder said again: "Let Yan Xiaotian do business outside, was it up to a few of you to come up with it?" Chai Zongyuan didn't know about this matter? ”
I said, "I really didn't know about it at first, but before Yan Xiaotian built his first industry, I told Master the details. Besides, if it weren't for Master's approval, my senior brothers wouldn't dare to help Yan Xiaotian without authorization. ”
The Hidden Elder listened to my words, his eyes still fixed on me, and after a long silence, he sighed heavily and walked downstairs.
I tried to keep up with him, but when he heard my footsteps, he raised his hand without looking back, and said, "Don't follow me." Over at the Cao family, I will say hello, and at nine o'clock tomorrow morning, you will come to the Cao family on time to finish. ”
Closure? And what does this mean.
I now find that it is really not easy to deal with these old people in Baiwu Mountain, they are always unwilling to say anything, and sometimes there are words in the words, which is difficult for people to guess.
After the Hidden Elder left, a few of us entered Yan Xiaotian's house, Yan Xiaotian was not in the living room at this time, I walked to the door of the study in the southwest corner of the living room, and saw him sitting in front of the computer typing.
