Text Chapter 6 The Vicious Bai Family
A white-robed young man walked across the street and came to a mansion that was more luxurious than the Yang Mansion. At the entrance of the mansion hangs a plaque with the word "White House" written on it.
The white-robed young man was very handsome, holding a paper fan in his hand, a jade pendant with a belt, silver hair, and a capable spirit, wasn't this the young man in the market just now, but there was an anxious look on his handsome face at this time.
"Young Master, you're back. When an old slave saw this young man, he said respectfully.
"Where is my father. The young man asked anxiously.
"The master is reading in the study. The old slave replied.
After the young man told the old slave not to be disturbed, the young man ran straight to the study.
The young man didn't knock on the door, but pushed the door in, and saw a silver-haired middle-aged man sitting behind the desk, dressed in a gorgeous costume, looking at the book calmly.
Seeing that the young man came in without knocking on the door, the silver-haired middle-aged man frowned slightly, as if he was displeased.
Ordinary youth are very steady, and there are almost no cases like today.
The middle-aged man in Chinese clothes was named Bai Ran, the head of the Bai family in Qingshui County, and the young man was his only son, Bai Xiao.
The Bai family was the first family in this Qingshui County before the Yang family came.
"Father, I have important news for you. Bai Xiao said.
"Oh, come quickly" Bai Ran put down the book in his hand, looked at his son in front of him, and replied.
But Bai Xiao didn't answer immediately, but poked his head out of the door, and after confirming that there was no one around the door, he gently closed the door.
Seeing that his son was so careful, Bai Ran had a bad premonition in his heart.
"Father, Yang Sheng has opened his pulse. Bai Xiao looked solemn and said to his father.
When Bai Ran heard the news, he was stunned for a moment, then shook his head and said, "How is it possible, you won't listen to someone else!"
"No, father, this is what I saw with my own eyes. Bai Xiao said solemnly.
Then Bai Xiao told Bai Ran what he had just seen on the street.
After hearing this, Bai Ran gradually believed that this was the truth, but did not express any opinion, but kept grinding with the thumb and index finger of his right hand, as if he was thinking about the problem.
Seeing that his father was not in a hurry, Bai Xiao said anxiously:
"This is going to be a big deal, didn't Mr. Kong say that the fusion pulse is scattered, it is a strange poison in the world, and no one can solve it in Qingshui County, why is Yang Sheng not only fine, but also suddenly opened the pulse? ”
"Don't be disrespectful to Mr. Kong, our family's future future depends on Mr. Kong, even if he is wrong, it's not something we should question. ”
Bai Ran scolded sharply.
Bai Xiao was very disdainful in his heart, why did his father have such respect for that Mr. Kong, in his opinion, that Mr. Kong was just a person from the rivers and lakes, if it wasn't for his father's kindness to take him in back then, he might not know where he would be.
At the beginning, Bai Xiao was suspicious of Mr. Nakong, but his father respected him very much, which made him very puzzled, and now that there are such things that may put his family in danger, his opinion on Mr. Nakong is even greater.
Bai Xiao pursed his lips when he heard his father's reprimand, but said respectfully: "Child, I know." ”
Bai Xiao continued: "But the decision at that time was indeed a bit reckless, it is said that once the poison of the melting veins is resolved, the traces of the poison will be revealed, with Yang An's temperament, he has not turned the world upside down." And our family and the Yang family have always been at odds, this is known to the whole Qingshui County, if we really find out about our Bai family, what can we do, Rongmai is a forbidden drug, if it is known, our Bai family will be ruined?"
Rongmaisan is a colorless, odorless, powdered poison that only works on people who have not opened their pulses. If it is sucked by a person who has not opened the pulse, the meridians of the whole body will be blocked, and the perception of the Xuan Force will be completely lost, and the direct result will be that it is impossible to become a Xuan Li cultivator, and the whole body mechanism will become weaker and weaker, and even a slightly focused internal injury may die.
Because of the sinister and vicious nature of this poison, it was listed as a forbidden drug throughout the empire, and if anyone was found to dare to use it, it would be directly sent to the border as a slave.
Bai Ran looked at his son, and then said indifferently: "Don't panic in advance! Although this is a problem, who knows that it is poisoned by our family, and they don't dare to do anything to our Bai family without evidence." ”
Bai Ran then gritted his teeth, looked viciously at the void in front of him, clenched his fists and said: "Even if he Yang An dares to come nonsense, are we still afraid that his Yang family will not succeed, not to mention that we still have Mr. Kong here, it is expected that he Yang Lao'er will not be able to turn the sky." ”
Bai Ran saw his father's angry face, and he was also a little puzzled, in Bai Xiao's impression, his father would be very annoyed every time he mentioned Yang An.
After Bai Ran finished speaking, he took a deep breath, calmed his mood, and said to Bai Xiaoping, "Xiao'er, do you know why I get angry every time I mention that Yang An'er?"
Bai Xiao replied: "The child doesn't know, I hope my father will solve his doubts." ”
Bai Ran took another deep breath, then spit it out, raised the teacup and took a sip, as if reminiscing, and then said the past in a gentle voice.
"His Yang family's family business was all snatched from our Bai family. ”
"When the Yang family first came to Qingshui County, they were poor and two hundred, but Yang An did have some ability, and he actually said that the county guard opened the power competition of dividing forces, you must know that doing business in the empire is subject to official permission, and the official has the right to decide the distribution of forces. This power ratio is a way of allocating resources. ”
"Each family has one person on stage to compete, and winning or losing determines the division of forces. ”
"In that power competition, I united several local veteran families and wanted to suppress the Yang family together, but those few blind things actually defected and abstained directly, and in the end, only his Yang family and our Bai family duel, that is, I duel with Yang An. ”
"At that time, I had just stepped into the realm of Huamai, and my realm was a little unstable, so I lost half a move to Yang An and lost the timber management right of the high-wood dense forest. ”
"But who would have thought that the Yang family would be so powerful in a few years, and in just a few years, the timber business was run in an orderly manner, and the timber from the tall wood and dense forest was directly made into the largest export commodity in Qingshui County, and the income was more than tripled compared to when our family was in control, and the Yang family has only made a fortune since then. ”
After Bai Xiao heard this past that his father had never mentioned before, he clenched his fists slightly, and hated the Yang family even more.
Originally, the girl I liked since I was a child had never looked at herself, and she only felt intimate with Yang Sheng of the Yang family, which made Bai Xiao have a toothache of hatred for Yang Sheng, thinking that poisoning Yang Sheng would turn him into a waste, and he would have a chance to take the position, not long ago, it was rumored that Yang Sheng was seriously injured by his father, thinking that he was deeply poisoned by the poison of the veins, and he couldn't resist it at all, who would have thought that it had only been a few days, he was not only fine, but he had successfully opened the pulse, so would he still have a chance?
Unconsciously thought of the scene of Yang Sheng hugging the girl of his dreams, and suddenly felt an inexplicable sting in his heart.
Today, I heard that my family still has such a relationship with this Yang family, and at this moment, Bai Xiao only felt that the whole Yang family was like a thorn in his side.
In the past, I had the impression that my father looked vicious every time he mentioned Yang An, Bai Xiao asked the reason more than once, but his father didn't tell him, and this time he took the initiative to talk about it, which surprised him somewhat.
In the past, Bai Xiao secretly guessed that his father might not be used to seeing the Yang family snatching his position in the first family, so he hated Yang An, which Cheng thought that it was because the Yang family's family business was snatched from his own family, which was a shame.
"Father, why haven't you mentioned this to your child before?" Bai Xiao asked suspiciously.
"This is not a glorious thing, but now that you have grown up, you should also know some family matters, I only have you as a son, and our Bai family will still rely on you in the future." ”
Bai Ran said, patting Bai Xiao's shoulder with his palm.
Bai Xiao felt the hand on his shoulder, heavy for a while, but very warm, that was his father's trust in him, and his father had high hopes for him.
This trust made Bai Xiao's heart heavy.
Bai Xiao secretly made up his mind that he must regain everything that had been lost by the Bai family.
"Father, I will definitely take back everything that our Bai family has lost, so that those who have betrayed us will know the fate of offending our Bai family. ”
Bai Xiao said solemnly.
Immediately, a cold light appeared in the corner of his eyes, and he thought in his heart: "Yang Sheng! Hmph, wait and see, I want you to know that even if you open your pulse, you will still be trampled under my feet!"
Bai Ran nodded at Bai Xiao, then waved his hand and said, "You go down, remember as if nothing happened." ”
Then I picked up the book I hadn't finished and continued reading.
