When the afterglow of the setting sun was blocked by the distant mountains, the entire Tianlong City seemed to be overshadowed all of a sudden. The sunset is clear and bright, and the crows are cold to the bone, and at this time, in a luxurious manor in the West City of the Eastern Regions, a unique traditional funeral is being held

It is said that its tradition is because this form of funeral originated very early, and its history can even be traced back to the distant ancient period and said that it is unique, and because of this retro tradition, as early as 10,000 years after the Yan Dynasty, the current funeral rites tend to be simplified. "If the will is not extinguished, it is regarded as life", and now people are more willing to spend more energy on how to prolong their lifespan, rather than an illusory afterlife, let alone such a lavish funeral

The flow of people in and out is like boiling water, crowding the originally spacious and bright front porch. In front of a solemn mourning hall, a group of sad women were dressed in white, crying to the sky

"My son, why did you go like this, leave me alone, let me live" A middle-aged woman dressed in sackcloth was kneeling in front of the spirit card in the middle, crying and grabbing the ground, as if she had died her son, and indeed her son died. And after the spirit card, a fat middle-aged man, is holding the coffin, weeping and losing a middle-aged child is indeed an extremely sad thing, although this unsuccessful son, usually not how to be treated by him, but when he thinks of separating yin and yang from now on, the white-haired person sends the black-haired person, he is also very uncomfortable in his heart

But it wasn't these reasons that really made him cry, if you want to talk about his son, he still has many, although most of them can't be on the stage, but if the same one dies, he won't be so sad. has been in a high position for many years, so that he has long cultivated a hard-hearted heart in the entanglement of rights and interests, even if the atmosphere is so sad now, he will never be as sentimental as ordinary people.

What really saddened him was that it was not another son who died, but his only son-in-law, and the future heir of the family who he had worked so hard to decide

Xia Lin's death directly threatened his status as the head of the family, and when he thought of his hard work, but finally ended up empty, he couldn't help but feel a sense of sadness, and there was a deep anger left after the sadness

"Master, everything is ready," said an old man dressed in white and plain, respectfully.

With a wave of his sleeves and wiping away the two lines of cloudy tears from the corners of his eyes, Xia Yuanshan suddenly regained his majesty, as if his heartbroken father just now was someone else

"Come in with me," Xia Yuanshan muttered, with a hint of hoarseness in his majesty.

"Master, I have found out, there is no doubt that Night Rain is indeed a side descendant of the Night Clan," the old man affirmed again.

Xia Yuanshan looked at the old man in front of him, his eyes were blurred, as if he could penetrate his thoughts, and after a while, he muttered: "Fu Bo, I believe in you"

Hearing this, the old man secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Suddenly, Xia Yuanshan's voice changed, and the air on the scene seemed to be condensed, "I don't care who he is?" Kill me Lin'er, and I will make him pay for it with blood."

"The master is wise—"

"You stand down for a while, you must be foolproof"

"Rest assured by the hosts"

At this time, there was a cry outside, no mass of the dead, no prayer of the pastor, he would tell everyone in the most traditional way that he had lost his most beloved son, that he was heartbroken, and that he needed sympathy. In his eyes, this is called maximizing profits, even if the deceased is his son, he will not let go of any opportunity to establish his own image

People about after dusk, the moon on the willow tops

In the luxurious Imperial Globe Hotel, in the incomparable first-class presidential suite, Ye Yu was wrapped in a white bath towel and lazily lying on a rocking chair. After taking a hot bath all over his body, he didn't want to do anything now, he didn't want to cultivate, he didn't want to take revenge, he just wanted to sleep well now, he hadn't been so relaxed for a long time...,

He didn't think this was a good sign, looking at the Tibetan ring ring on his left ring finger, he suddenly found that Xiao Hei seemed to have not been unsheathed for a long time, but he didn't want to force himself, listening to the sound of nothingness, he had an extremely natural peace of mind, so relieved that he couldn't even bear to spoil the warm atmosphere at the moment.

After a while, a beauty wrapped in a bathrobe came out of the bath with a delicate figure, fair skin, and the beauty of the moss seemed to be natural, not only in her beautiful appearance, but also in that pure and elegant temperament

Probably because of the freshness of the bath, her face was red and still steaming, and she no longer had the malnourished dishes that she had when she first saw her

"There are clothes on the bed, and dinner outside" Ye Yu looked at her with a smile, with a hint of unhesitating appreciation in his eyes.

It is this kind of look that makes someone run away from the wilderness, holding a bath towel in one hand and picking up clothes in the other, Xiao Moss shyly ran outside, and left a sentence before leaving, "Don't peek"

Ye Yu touched his nose awkwardly and said with a wry smile: "Am I this kind of person?" ”

As a top-of-the-line presidential suite, the environment here is very different from yesterday. People always have inertia, there is a good house to live in, who would be willing to be poor at least Ye Yu is not this kind of person, whether as a nobleman or as a killer, he is willing to spend a lot of money in exchange for comfortable pleasure, which seems to be understandable

In the soothing "Rhine" by Schuberner the Younger, a figure walks in

Dressed in a pure white sleeveless tight-fitting robe, with picturesque eyebrows, skin better than snow, coupled with that natural elegant temperament, shyness with amazement, simplicity and slightly luxury, Ye Yu was stunned for a moment Is this Xiao Moss?

Eh, when did his concentration become so bad Feeling his gaffe, Ye Yu couldn't help but knock on the door of his head. At this time, Xiao Moss is indeed very beautiful, but the beauty that is more beautiful than her, she has not never seen it, not to mention anything else, just the pupil heart, Liruo's posture, is not inferior to her at all, not to mention the big and small Loli in the shadow group, the big Lori Sect Master's wife, mature and cold, little Lori Nangong is like the moon, brutal and lovely, and her appearance is even better than Xiao Moss, but she has never really cared.

But now Xiao Moss, wearing only an ordinary satin cheongsam, makes herself dazzled, which has to be said to be a strange thing

"Red fen skeletons, all clouds and smoke" wanted the old monk to settle down, Ye Yu immediately comforted himself like this

"Master, it's completely dark," Fu Bo whispered on the side.

"It's getting dark-" Xia Yuanshan held the coffin and muttered: "Son, tonight Dad will avenge you, you can rest in peace"

"Master, is it time to act," Fauber urged again.

"You don't need to remind me-" A touch of anger surged up instantly, and Xia Yuanshan's fat figure trembled.

That Fauber was so frightened that he didn't dare to say anything more

"Wait a little longer——, you go down first"

"Yes, the old slave is retired"

Looking at the distant figure, the head of the Xia family gave him the most pertinent evaluation, he was more than loyal, but he was too selfish

"Would you like to hear a suggestion?" Ye Yu suddenly smiled lightly.

"What advice—" Moss asked curiously.

"I'll wear it like this in the future, and now you're so charming"

Xiao Moss blushed with shame and rejoiced in her heart, but she couldn't help but say, "What nonsense? What a fan is not charming"

"It's really pretty."

"Don't say it's good-looking, don't you have to return this dress tomorrow?"

Ye Yu patted his head in annoyance, he could only blame himself for being self-defeating, at first he was afraid that the little moss would be verbose, so he lied to her and said that this cheongsam was provided by the hotel for a fee, but I can ask which hotel has such a good service, and give such a high-end cheongsam for free, this is indeed what he bought at his own expense...,

But the waiter's vision is really good, he asked her to pick one at will, and it was so appropriate, it seems that he really didn't save himself money, but he was really satisfied, and was considering whether to tip her more later

However, these words are not easy to explain, he can only hide them silently in his heart, and move himself

"How long are you going to live here?" sat on the leather chair depressedly, and her smile was so moving

"Isn't it good here" Ye Yu was a little surprised, in his opinion, the environment here is a thousand times better than her original home or the hotel where she chartered her mother-in-law.

"Of course, okay-" It is undeniable that as a luxury club in Tianlong City, the luxury of the Emperor Ball Hotel is indeed beyond her imagination, and as a fledgling little girl, she just came in, almost thinking that she had entered a labyrinth? "But I'm not used to it—" Eventually, she told the truth

"Don't worry, we're just staying here temporarily," Ye Yu couldn't help but comfort.

"If I had the money, I would like to rebuild the collapsed attic," Moss said with a wistful expression.

"That's what I thought too"

"You should have promised Hitomi today, they must have thought you were a coward by now"

"What do you think?"

"Cowards don't dare kill people—"

"Isn't that enough, I don't bother to care what others think of me?"

"But I suspect you're sick—"

"You're sick?"

"No, I'm telling the truth"

………

"Don't we have a heart?"

"It's not"

"Then why do we always think of a piece?"

"I don't know what to do"

"There has to be a reason"

"Maybe I'm not tall enough—"

"Uh——, what does this have to do with height?"

"I don't know what to do"

"You're not going to be jealous, are you?"

"Die—"

Xiaomoss herself is easy-going, and the only thing that is unhappy is quietly passed away between the flirting and scolding of the two

In the bright hall, a fat middle-aged man, half-leaning on the chair, with his right hand on his cheek, as if contemplative, and as sleeping as the head of the family, Xia Yuanshan used to be quiet for a moment in his position as the head of the family before issuing orders Today is no exception, although this is just a seemingly insignificant thing, but he feels faintly uneasy, his right eyelid is always "banging" and pounding, as if something is going to happen, this situation has not happened for many years, since he became the head of the family, his life trajectory, Just like the Star Express, it's always been an upward trend. Since climbing the big tree away from home, it seems that his luck has also improved a lot, and in his less than two square Tibetan rings, there is a cute photo of him when he was young. At that time, he was still very young, he was not the head of the house at that time, he was still very thin at that time, and even a little handsome

But now? Shaking off his current fat, he felt that it was not a spring breeze and a horseshoe disease, but a deep frustration, as if it was meaningless for him to pay so much

"For what?" He suddenly felt sad, but he couldn't make out the faint scent of the air

Gradually, his eyelids drooped, and it didn't take long for him to fall asleep

"Master, master—" At this moment, a deep voice came from far and near.

"Huh?" Xia Yuanshan suddenly woke up, raised his head suddenly, only to feel a sharp pain in his right cheek, and wiped it with his hand, it was wet, and it turned out to be full of blood.

"Master, what's wrong with you" Seeing the blood on Xia Yuanshan's face at first glance, Fu Bo was also startled, and his first reaction was that there were assassins, but he thought about it and felt impossible, this is the core part of the Xia Mansion, there are many guards around, who can come in and wait for idle people, and the guards at the door are still there, if there is really any situation, how can they not react? …,

But what's going on? Looking at the blood on his hands, Xia Yuanshan was also startled, and when he turned his head, he saw a sharp dagger inserted into his backrest, which was stained with a few strands of red blood, which was obviously left by himself just now

"Master, you're fine, right?"

Xia Yuanshan waved his hand and asked him to silence, after all, he was the head of the family, and the wind and waves he experienced were not small, and after a short panic, he immediately calmed down.

Reaching for the dagger on the backrest, a piece of origami slipped from the tip.

"Master, stop the bleeding quickly"

Xia Yuanshan didn't have time to pay attention to him, opened the paper and looked at it, only to see a line of big words written on it: "Those who dare to move the night rain - die"

Xia Yuanshan's face sank, as if he had forgotten the pain in his face, he stared at Fu Bo tightly, and said in a deep voice: "Is that Ye Yu really just a side disciple of the Ye Clan?" ”。

"It's true, the old slave has found it clearly-"

"This is the result of your investigation" Before he could finish speaking, Xia Yuanshan threw over a piece of paper, "I already feel that something is wrong, can an ordinary side disciple transfer to the Heavenly Academy halfway?" Ordinary side children, can there be such a master escort? Fortunately, this time the people just came to warn me, if they wanted my life, I would be in a different place now."

Looking at the bright white and black words, Fauber was also stunned, he didn't understand, how the person came in quietly

"Bold, this man dares to threaten his master, the old slave will not spare him-"

"Okay, okay-" In the eventful autumn, Xia Yuanshan suddenly felt tired, "Give me a thorough investigation of the identity of that night rain, remember, you must report it truthfully"

"Yes, yes, yes—"

"Tonight's operation, cancelled for the time being—"

"And what about after that?"

"Hmph——, Xiao Xiaojuni, how can you stop my determination to avenge my son No matter what, that night rain will definitely die" The cold glint in the eyes of the Xia family master continued unabated

"Yes, the old slave understands"

"There is also ——, mobilize all the masters to enter the inner house, from today onwards, the family will be under martial law"

"Yes, the old slave will do it"

Xia Yuanshan waved his hand, and Fu Bo quietly retreated

The so-called high place is not cold, Tianlong City is located in the northern plain of the central region, itself has a high altitude, and the summer is hot, and the winter is windy, especially in the high place where you can pick the stars, it is even more cold and cold, cold and biting.

On the top floor of the Emperor Globe Hotel, an uncle with a stubble face is looking at the sky level, his eyes are blurred, exuding an unparalleled decadent temperament. It's a pity that there is no little Lori on the scene, and this strange uncle only has a share of lonely self-appreciation

Suddenly, with a "bump", the big iron door of the rooftop was kicked open, and a young man in a bathrobe slowly walked in, there is no doubt that the person who came was Ye Yu.

Although he was not afraid of the cold, as soon as he went to the rooftop, he still habitually pulled the bathrobe, and then walked over with his slippers on

At least for now, he is still an innocent little virgin, not afraid of the cold wind, but afraid of the cold wind blowing his clothes, if he accidentally comes to a * light, then he will lose a lot

"In the middle of the night, why are you looking for me to come up?" Throwing over a can of "Dragon City" beer, Ye Yu asked angrily.

"Don't blame me," Cruise said with a bitter face, "I'm just passing on a word"

"What?"

Cruise opened the beer, took a sip, and said, "It's said from above that you'll accept that girl's challenge."

"Challenge accepted? If you're not mistaken, this kind of organization has to take care of it."

"Don't ask me, I'm just passing on a message, if you have an opinion, you can report it to Lu Shang"

"This matter was brought up by Elder Lan Yu, otherwise how would the organization know about it?"

"Hmph, you think that the organization is in Tianlong City, I can guarantee that even if you hang up now, someone will fill your position immediately the next day."

Ye Yu nodded, this is the truth, the Shadow Group has always only talked about efficiency, not emotion, so he has nowhere to reflect on this, even if he reflects, it is useless to be a killer, he can only accept the task and then complete the task. As for whether the task is good or bad, difficult or easy, it is not a matter of consideration

"In fact, the meaning of the organization is also obvious, 'Heavenly Dao' is the core of the Ares family, if you want to join, you must first attract their attention, and your competition with that girl is the best way to prove it, so you have to come on."

Ye Yu wanted to say, in fact, I really hate violence, especially school violence, but I can't help it. Ye Yu finally compromised, but he didn't let the beard sit idle.

"Get me an Ares? Hitomi's information"

"In the middle of the night, it's going to toss people—"

"Who asked you to go to the top now, although I agree to the competition, but there is no time set, so this is delayed in advance, you can find time to do it yourself"

"That's almost—"

"I'll go first"

"Don't send it right, you really have a lot of 'tails', and you can't catch them every day" As he spoke, Cruise pointed to the corner of the wall, only to see two pitch-black figures, like dead dogs, lying ......there motionless.
