Chapter Twenty-Six: The Xiao Family Gathers

After passing the customs, we changed cars, said goodbye to Lin Qiming, and then headed to Bao'an Airport.

Before that, he had already booked our flight to Jinling for us.

In addition, he handed me a letter with a certificate that we had asked him to open for us.

I didn't say anything all the way, and when I arrived at the airport, after saying goodbye to Lin Qiming's subordinates who sent us over, and walking into the airport hall, Qu Fatsan suddenly smiled and said to me: "I said it, this Lin Qiming is a very interesting person......

Why do I say that?

Qu Fatsan didn't answer the rhetorical question, and said that you think the bunch of righteous words he just said were true?

I shook my head and said naturally not.

Qu Fatsan asked with interest, "What do you think is wrong?" ”

I squinted my eyes and said, "If Lin Qiming is really as loyal as he says, it is impossible for him to go all the way to Jinping to ask us alone, and he still hides his head and tail; In addition, he gave us a few times to ventilate us, for example, this time, he completely wanted us to get involved in the death of Tao Tao, and he must have known something......"

Qu Fatsan touched his chin and said that Lin Qiming was the number one loyal dog under the Black Hand Shuangcheng, which could make him feel alienated, what did that one do?

My brows jumped, my heart palpitated, and I whispered: "What do you mean, this matter is related to the Black Hand Twin Cities?" ”

Qu Fatsan shook his head and said that we can't get any information at the moment, and we don't understand what the situation is, and we don't know until we get to Maoshan and get involved.

I took out the envelope that Lin Qiming handed me, took out the documents inside, looked at the scarlet official seal on it, and was a little puzzled, saying that this thing is really useful?

Qu Fatsan said that this is just a stepping stone, as for whether or not we can get in, it depends on our means.

I pondered for a while and said that I felt like we had to go somewhere else before we went up Maoshan Mountain.

Qu Fatsan glanced at me and said Rong Xiao's family?

I nodded, and said that the Xiao family was born in the Maoshan Sect, and the old man Xiao is said to have a personal relationship with Tao Dixian, and there are two big names in the family, the former generation of Maoshan Zhangjiao and the current Elder Chuangong, and they must have a deeper understanding of Maoshan than us, and from them, we may be able to get some good advice......

Qu Fatsan said that Shibei was three days, and he was impressed, Lu Yan, why did you become smart all of a sudden, was it influenced by me?

Belch......

I gave him a depressed look and ignored him.

This guy is the kind of person who gets harder and harder the more he tosses, and arguing with him is definitely an unwise move.

Lin Qiming's subordinates are very efficient, and what they set for us is the kind of flight that is about to depart, and it is also first-class, and there is almost no pause during it, Qu Fatsan, this guy doesn't look at the soul obscene, but his appearance is good, and the fans are a little Zhengtai, women like it when they see it, and this guy is also taking the opportunity to tease the flight attendant, and he is very busy.

Even so, it was already night when we arrived in Jinling, and after landing, we took a taxi directly to Jurong Xiao's house.

I didn't say anything all the way, and when I arrived at the Xiao family's compound after a long absence, I got out of the car to settle the bill, and then went to knock on the door.

After knocking three times, the door creaked open, and I saw a young woman coming to open the door, she looked at me and Qu Fatsan with some confusion, and said Who are you looking for?

I saw that this woman looked very similar to the Xiao family, and knew that it was a member I didn't know, so I introduced myself: "Hello, my name is Lu Yan, and I am a friend of Brother Xiao......"

When the woman heard it, she smiled and said I have heard your name, hello, I am Xiao Keming's little sister, come in.

Xiao Keming's little sister?

I walked inside with some doubts, and the woman said, "Xiao Keming is not at home, but the third uncle and the younger uncle are in the east wing, and Xiao Luqi from the uncle's family has also come over......"

I said I know them all, can I come and visit?

The woman nodded and said okay, I'll take you over.

She led me and Qu Fatsan to the east wing, knocked on the door, and said, "Third uncle, little uncle, Lu Yan is here." ”

The door creaked and was opened, and the fifth brother appeared in front of me, stretched out his hand and grabbed my shoulder, and said in a deep voice: "Lu Yan is here?" ”

Xiao Keming's little sister is not a cultivator, she saw that someone was right, and then said goodbye.

I hurriedly thanked him.

The fifth brother pulled me and Qu Fatsan into the room, and I found that in addition to the third uncle and Xiao Luqi, there was also a white-haired elder with a red face in the room, everyone stood up, the third uncle waved his hand, let me come forward, and then said to the elder next to him: "Big brother, this is Lu Zuo's cousin Lu Yan, and his apprentice, is a new young master in recent years, who has saved the life of the fifth child and Xiao Ming's ......."

The white-haired old man laughed and said I know, these things, Kiki doesn't know how many times she has nagged me.

After that, he didn't need to be introduced by the third uncle, but reached out to me and said enthusiastically: "Lu Yan, hello, I am Xiao Luqi's father, Xiao Yingzhong." ”

Although I had already guessed that this elder was the uncle of the Xiao family, who had served as an important boss in the Northwest Bureau, I was still a little flattered by the enthusiasm of the other party, I hurriedly reached out my hand, shook him, and said cautiously: "Hello uncle, I have always heard of you, but I have never met ......"

Uncle Xiao's hands were full of calluses, and he was very powerful, he shook my hand vigorously, and said Don't be so polite, I heard that you call the fifth brother the fifth brother, why don't you call me the eldest brother, I am very familiar with your cousin Lu Zuo, and they are all family.

Belch......

I'm afraid that Lu Zuo will also call you Uncle Xiao, where do I dare to call you big brother, isn't this unpleasant for myself?

I smiled bitterly and said, "When I met the fifth brother at that time, I didn't know that there was such a relationship, but I still call you uncle like my cousin......"

Uncle Xiao patted me on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Okay, it's okay to call anything, you sit, sit down and talk." ”

The fifth brother pulled me to the chair next to me and sat down, and then asked me, "Lu Yan, I'm afraid you didn't just come to see us in the middle of the night, right?" ”

I have a close relationship with the Xiao family, so I can't talk about anything to hide, so I said immediately: "I just heard the news that Tao Dixian's granddaughter Tao Tingqian fell off a cliff and died, and I was worried that something would happen to Brother Xiao, so I hurried over......"

Well?

Uncle Xiao frowned and said Where were you before, how did you know about this?

I told the truth, saying that I knew about it from Lin Qiming of the Southeast Bureau on Hong Kong Island before, and I didn't stop for a moment, and I rushed over immediately.

"Lin Qiming?"

Third Uncle Xiao groaned, looked at Uncle Xiao and Fifth Brother for a while, nodded, and then asked me again: "You left with Xiao Ming before, do you know where he is now?" ”

Speaking of this, I also subconsciously looked left and right, and finally my eyes fell on Xiao Luqi.

After hesitating for a moment, I said: "We rescued Lu Zuo from Cha Yi Ba Co, and later separated in the Tianshan Mountains, they went to Tibet, and I returned to my hometown in order to attract the attention of others, and later went to Hong Kong Island for business......

Uncle Xiao was stunned and said that you went to the northwest?

I nodded, yes.

Uncle Xiao said what to do there?

The fifth brother next to him smiled and said Isn't the northwest your old territory, you have been there all your life, isn't there any rumor at all?

Uncle Xiao said that I have been in retreat in Kyoto for the past six months, and you don't know it.

I briefly talked about what happened in the northwest, and after listening, Uncle Xiao took a deep breath and said that the Tianshan Shenchi Palace has a thunderous reputation in the northwest, but it has never intersected with the official, and I didn't expect such a thing to happen, which is really a pity.

I said that the Tiansanshenchi Palace was worried about external troubles, and it was normal to end up in such a field, but I didn't know what the outcome would be, so I left in a hurry, but I didn't know much about it.

Uncle Xiao knew that I was a little worried in my heart, so he said: "Don't worry, I still have some energy in the Northwest Bureau, and I will help you ask back." ”

After talking about this, just when it came to business, Uncle Xiao said to me: "We also just received the news, so we got together to discuss this matter - anyway, Tao Tao is the daughter-in-law of my Xiao family, and she died so inexplicably, if our Xiao family ignores it, I am afraid that it will make the world laugh off its big teeth, and regardless of whether Xiao Ming knows the news or not, we decided to rush to Maoshan tomorrow, you have come all the way, and you also have a heart, it is better to be with us." ”

I gave it up and said that I dared not obey my fate.

It seems that we came to the Xiao family first, this decision is right, as Uncle Xiao said, Tao Tao is the daughter-in-law of the Xiao family, and there is a marriage contract.

In any case, Maoshan has to give an explanation.

This reason is much stronger than Lin Qiming's letter of introduction to us, even if the Maoshan Sect is unwilling, it is impossible to close the mountain gate.

And Jurong Xiao's family is not an ordinary door, the boss Xiao Yingzhong used to be the boss of the Northwest Bureau of the Religious Bureau, although he is now retired, but there are countless protΓ©gΓ©s and former officials, and he has a strong influence in the official system, even the black hand Shuangcheng saw him, and he had to honestly shout "big brother", and the rest of the people were all heroes, not to mention the former Maoshan master Xiao Keming, and the current elder Xiao Yingyan.

My mother, don't look at the Xiao family as a no-brainer, it's a first-class top gate valve.

If you add the son-in-law of the Xiao family who outsiders don't know......

After we discussed it that night, the fifth brother arranged a room for us to rest, and there was no dream all night, and the next morning, I got up early, and I was in the yard to vomit, and at this time Uncle Xiao came to me.

I hurriedly saluted, Uncle Xiao looked at me with a smile, and then said, "I heard that you are quite familiar with Qiqi's boyfriend Lin You?" ”

Yes?

I was stunned for a moment, nodded and said, "Yes, we've worked together......"
