Chapter 41 You're finally smart
Because she had seen the ferocity of the fish in the water, and Murong Yunze was the only one who was alone, it should be possible to say thirty or forty.
"No, there are less than ten."
Mu Xiaochu was surprised, "No, so little!" ”
"Yes, less than ten pearls can forge a peerless weapon, you can imagine how many weapons can be forged with those pearls he brought back this time." Qi Ziyan tightened his grip on Mu Xiaochu's hand and said, "So Xiao Chu now knows how important you are to the Murong family." ”
Mu Xiaochu pursed his lips and said, "But I still don't understand a little, since one person can only take so many pearls, why don't you send a few more people?" Wouldn't that bring back more? ”
Qi Ziyan said to Mu Xiaochu to himself: "This is also the reason why they want to find you, because the people of the Murong family can only go to that cave once a year, and they can only go to one person at a time, if there are many people who go, only one person will survive in the end." ”
That's what he's been hearing these days.
In his previous life, he also knew about the Murong family, but he only knew that they were the number one weapon family in the capital at that time, and he didn't know so much now.
After Mu Xiaochu heard this, his beautiful eyes widened, "This is really incredible." ”
Then, Qi Ziyan leaned Mu Xiaochu's head on his chest, while his hand was on her head, and his tone was full of happiness: "So, I'm glad that you are the person they are looking for." ”
Otherwise, he couldn't believe the result of only one person.
After knowing this, his first thought was to let Xiao Chu leave first in the first year, and he left in the second year.
As for the person who came over, he could only say sorry.
Mu Xiaochu, who was forced to lean on his chest, was also a little happy at this time, and the hand under him was also wrapped around Qi Ziyan's waist.
The two hugged like this for a while, and finally Qi Ziyan said: "So, I'll accompany you tomorrow, it just so happens that I haven't understood some things yet." ”
If he didn't stay in that cave for two years after becoming the head of the family, he really didn't know whether to agree with Xiao Chu's decision.
Murong's family at this time.
Murong Yunling, who had just run back, shouted as soon as he saw Murong Yunze: "Brother, did you make Little Sister unhappy!" ”
Murong Yunze, who was chatting with someone, heard the voice, looked up at the person running over, and said, "What is Ling'er talking about, how can I make the head of the family unhappy." ”
In the Murong family, there is only Murong Yunling, Mu Xiaochu, Sister Xiaochu, and other people who agree, they all call her the head of the family.
Murong Yunling didn't believe it, and continued: "If it's not you, then why doesn't Little Junior Sister want to come to Murong's house today and ask her father to prove her identity!" ”
The man on the side was puzzled: "You said that the head of the family is unwilling to come over to prove his identity?" ”
Murong Yunling looked at the person who spoke: "Yes, Brother Feiyu, I've been talking about it for a long time, but Sister Xiaochu still didn't agree to come over today." ”
Murong Yunze said helplessly: "What you mean is that the head of the family is unwilling to come over today, you didn't say that the head of the family is unwilling to come." ”
"Huh? It seems that this is really the case, Sister Xiaochu promised to come over tomorrow. Murong Yunling raised his head and continued; But why didn't Sister Xiao Chu come over today, come over early to prove her identity, and she would be able to be the head of our Murong family as soon as possible. ”
Murong Yunze got up and pulled Murong Yunling to the side of the stone bench and sat down, and said, "Daddy will come back this afternoon, everything is not ready yet, why did you call the head of the family to come over so early, help clean up and prepare together?" ”
Because Murong Yunze's father, Murong Feng, only informed him today that he was coming back, Gu They only started to prepare today.
When Murong Yunling heard this, his face turned red, and he complained: "Daddy is also true, he has to forge weapons when his brother collects spirit pearls, otherwise Xiao Chu Sister would have been the rightful head of their Murong family." ”
Murong Yunze said with a hint of reproach: "You-you actually dare to question the ancestral rules, you are not afraid of being heard." ”
After hearing this, Murong Yunling stuck out his tongue and said, "No." ”
Murong Fengyu on the side blinked his peach blossom eyes and said, "That's not necessarily." ”
"Brother Feng Yu, you ......" Murong Yunling was annoyed.
"Haha-okay, I won't tease you." Murong Fengyu said with a serious expression: "But it's not just me who came back today, most of the people in the Murong family who have status have come back, so it's better to be careful if the wall has ears." ”
Murong Yunling looked around with some weakness and said, "I know." ”
There is another reason why the Murong family is different from other families, that is, they respect their ancestral rules very much, which is also the reason why most people agree with her after knowing Mu Xiaochu's identity.
As for the rest of the small number of people, it's not that they disagree, but they just think that she is too young to be competent, so they will have doubts.
But there will always be some people in every family who are greedy and want more.
They are not members of the Murong family, but a division of the Murong family, to be exact, they were just servants of their Murong family before the separation, because they were loyal to the Murong family, so they were given the surname Murong, but the so-called heartfelt heart has been many years ago, and the division family in recent years has always wanted to monopolize the Murong family.
This is also one of the main reasons why they will place secret guards next to Mu Xiaochu.
Who knows if they will go crazy and assassinate the new head of the family.
This is also one of the reasons why Qi Ziyan also let Blood Red stay by Mu Xiaochu's side.
On the other side, in a large mansion, several people looked a little anxious.
One of them said: "Big brother, are we really waiting for them to bring back the so-called head of the family?" ”
The other person continued: "That is to say, eldest brother, according to me, they should just kill her without doing anything, as for waiting until now, are you in such a hurry?" ”
The man who was called the eldest brother drank tea and said calmly: "Okay, second brother, third brother, what's the hurry, isn't she the head of the Murong family yet." ”
The second brother in his mouth, that is, the first person to speak: "Why aren't you in a hurry, obviously, tomorrow the current head of the family will announce that she is the only head of our Murong family, I should not have listened to the eldest brother and killed her before that!" ”
The second third brother who spoke, although he did not answer, could be seen from his eyes that he also agreed with his second brother's idea.
"Kill her?" The person who called the eldest brother put down the cup in his hand and said disdainfully: "Do you think that after killing her, who will be the next head of the family, only if there is no one in the family, it will be our turn to divide the family." ”
The second brother in his mouth suddenly said: "Oh-I know, is the eldest brother trying to make them rebel in the nest!" ”
The man who called the eldest brother gave the other party an approving look and said, "You are finally smarter." ”
"But how are we going to make our nest turn against us?" The second child wondered.
The person who called the eldest brother pretended to be mysterious and said: "This, the mountain people have their own clever plans." After finishing speaking, his eyes flashed fiercely.
But the third brother on the side had a flash of unwillingness in his eyes.
The next day, after Mu Xiaochu finished eating, he and Qi Ziyan took a car to Murong Mansion together.
Because there is a distance between Murong Mansion and Shizi Mansion, in order to prevent Mu Xiaochu from being thirsty or hungry, there are also a lot of pastries and tea on the carriage.
It's a pity that the things in the carriage are useless, because Mu Xiaochu is asleep.
However, halfway through the car, he was stopped.
In front of the carriage, a fierce man held a knife and said, "Stop, leave people behind!" ”
"Hmm-" Mu Xiaochu muttered as he fell asleep in the carriage.
Qi Ziyan patted and said softly, "Good, let's go to sleep." ”
Mu Xiaochu rolled over and fell asleep again.
Looking at Mu Xiaochu, who was still a little miserable when he turned over, Qi Ziyan said in his heart: Next time, I will change to a bigger carriage.
If Mu Xiaochu, who was asleep at this time, knew it, he would definitely shout: The carriage is small there, and it is easy to say it when I turn over!
When the people blocking the road saw that no one in the carriage had come down, they angrily turned to the people behind them; "Brothers, give it to me!"
"Kill—"
However, before they could get close to the carriage, they were killed by a large number of secret guards who came out.
At this time, in the woods, a man hiding behind a tree cursed: "Damn, they actually have a secret guard, didn't they say that there is only one coachman, what the hell is the secret guard who just came out, I knew that he would hire more people!" ”
"Boy, you're the one who you."
As soon as the person finished cursing, he heard someone talking behind him, and then he felt that his neck was very cold, and then he looked down and saw that he didn't know when someone had a knife on his neck!
He looked back cautiously, and when he saw who it was, he was surprised: "Blood red, how could it be you!" ”
"Yo-you still know me, which means I'm still very famous." Blood Red smug said.
That's right, the person who put the knife on the neck of the person who came at this time is the blood red that I haven't seen for a long time.
Blood Red: I haven't seen you for a long time, it's obvious that Qi Ziyan won't let me come out!
"I haven't offended you somewhere." The person who came pretended to be calm and slowly got up, and looked directly at the blood red road.
In this regard, Xuehong also cooperated to let him get up, shrugged his shoulders, and said very casually: "Who said that you didn't offend me, do you know that the person you want to kill is what I want to protect!" At the end, there was fierceness in his eyes.
The person retorted, "...... you are talking nonsense, how can your killer who is the number one killer on the list of killers still protect people." ”
The blood-red empty hand gouged out his ears, and his face was impatient, "You talk a lot of nonsense." ”
Then they took him out.
As soon as the person came out, he saw that the people he brought had died at some point, and then he became even more panicked, and his tone trembled a little: "Blood Red Hero...... You...... If...... Released ..... my ...... Words, I'll give you ...... 10,000 taels ...... Silver...... What do you think? ”
Blood-red disdain; "10,000 taels, you give it to the beggar, Lao Tzu used to take an order casually for tens of millions of taels!"
When the visitor heard this, he seemed to have made some decision and said, "Then I will give you 10 million taels of silver, how about you let me go?" "Although he doesn't have that much now.
"You ......" Xuehong looked the other party up and down in disgust and said, "It's too ugly, don't take it!" “
Qi Ziyan's impatient voice came from the carriage, "Enough, don't hurry up and bring people over." ”
Although he deliberately lowered his voice, Blood Red could still hear the deep dissatisfaction in his voice.
Suddenly he lost the heart to joke, and quickly brought the person to the carriage.
When the visitor heard this, he became angry, "You lied to me again!" ”
Bringing the man to the carriage, Bloodred kicked him in the knee, "How did I lie to you." ”
Plop –
It was the sound of the place kneeling on the place.
"You-" Forced to kneel on the ground, his inherent pride made him look back at Blood Red angrily, but after feeling the knife still around his neck, he was silent.
Seeing this, Blood Red said with contempt: "What a bad seed! ”
Soon the curtain of the carriage was opened, Qi Ziyan exposed his head from the inside, looked at the person kneeling in front of the carriage, and said in an affirmative tone: "Murong Quan, a concubine of the Murong family." ”
When Murong Quan heard this, his face was full of panic and said; "How do you know!"
