Chapter 559: Contemplation
Let's just say that the way to control people is not like this, such a master...... Wrong!
Ji Yun's heart suddenly moved, and he suddenly felt that these eight people were somewhat similar to Xu Changshou's three subordinates. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
Although these eight people are obviously too humane, they always give people a feeling of being a little awkward, like forcibly giving life to a corpse, but this life is someone else's, which seems out of place.
"Puppets!" Ji Yun was sure, "No wonder this Xu Henian doesn't treat them as people, but even if they are not human, the thoughts you transmit are not right!"
"Yes!" Xu Changfu naturally didn't dare to refute, and lay down and waited to be beaten.
"Let's wait first!" Xu Henian waved his hand, signaled to stand aside, and then turned his head to look at Xu Changlu: "Second brother, what about you!"
"The child is guilty!" Xu Changlu and Xu Changfu are the same, as soon as they stand up, the first thing is to kneel down, review, and without waiting for the old lady to ask, he told his business situation, like the boss, this year's income is higher than last year, but in the end, the bamboo basket is empty, and all of them were stolen by the third child.
Xu Henian must have known these things for a long time, he nodded, waved his hand and said, "Stand aside, and I'll be with the boss later!"
Xu Changlu walked to the side with a bitter face, and even in front of the old lady, he didn't dare to glare at the third child.
"The third child, what about you!" Xu Henian finally asked, Xu Changshou.
"Father, the child has never had a business, and you also know that the child is running diplomacy for the business of the eldest brother and the second brother, and the child has never experienced how to do business. Xu Changshou looked cautious and said tremblingly.
"I don't do business myself, but I steal the fruits of my brother's labor, I should be beaten!" Xu Henian snorted coldly, "Let me ask you, what is the use of taking it?"
Xu Changshou never expected the old lady to ask such a question, and he held back a sentence in his heart: Inheriting the position of the head of the family, it naturally depends on ability, I took their property from the boss and the second-hand, this is ability!
But can you say this? I'm afraid that if I say it, I'm going to ask for hardship.
Xu Changfu and Xu Changlu understood the old man's words, and while laughing at Xu Changshou in their hearts, they were ready to analyze what the old man meant.
But at this moment, I heard Xu Changshou say: "Father, since you want to be the heirloom of the head of the family, the child feels that if you choose the head of the family in the future, the eldest brother and the second brother will definitely disagree with each other, and it is very likely that the conflict will escalate and split my Xu family.
"Oh, then, you don't want to compete for the position of head of the family?" Xu Henian squinted at Xu Changshou with a look on his face.
"I don't want to!"
Xu Changshou's answer surprised everyone, and they all looked at each other, not knowing what he was thinking.
"The child is just thinking, with his father's cultivation, not to mention a hundred years ago, even immortality is not a problem, our Xu family now has only three generations, why choose a new head of the family? I think there is a father, the Xu family is here! You will always be the head of this family!"
"Damn, shameless!"
All the Xu family members scolded angrily in their hearts, Xu Changshou is too thick-skinned, right?
If you are a fart and a high hat, aren't you afraid that the old man will turn his face?
It must be known that Old Man Xu does not rub sand in his eyes, this kind of little trick has no escape in his eyes, Xu Changshou is clever and smart, this time I am afraid that he will really be mistaken by being smart.
Ji Yun secretly praised in his heart, this Xu Changshou is well versed in the truth that thousands of clothes are not worn by sycophants, Old Man Xu may not like this kind of person, but, a family, especially a big family, the head of the family would rather be a sleek old fox than a mighty and domineering tiger.
Based on this alone, Old Man Xu is optimistic about Xu's longevity.
However, on the other hand, if Old Man Xu has insight into Xu Changshou's mind and does the opposite, then he is really smart and mistaken by cleverness.
"Be restless and keep to yourself, do your job well, although you have good intentions, but the crime is unforgivable, and you will be punished!" Old man Xu seemed to be here to beat people, "You three, let's do it together!"
The three brothers lay on the ground with bitter faces, and the eight puppets stepped forward, and the stars and trees were knocked down, and the three of them had their skin and flesh open, and they didn't even have the strength to stand up.
The heirs helped to sit on the chairs, grinning in pain, but they didn't dare to make a sound.
When the fight was over, Old Man Xu rubbed his forehead and sighed: "You guys, I really don't let me worry!"
He suddenly looked up at Xu Changfu, "Boss, second, what about those people I sent?"
"Back to Father, they... Xu Changfu's face was ugly, and he didn't dare to say any more.
"You killed them, right?" Xu Henian shook his head, and asked instead: "Third child, I heard that there is a master by your side?"
"Yes, father, this person's cultivation is not bad, and he is extremely smart, everything the child does, he proposes it!"
Xu Henian nodded, "I heard that he was the one who suggested that you not kill the eldest and second?"
Xu Changshou wanted to say no, because this was in his plan, but he knew that too many calculating good words would make people see flaws, especially a person like the old man, so he nodded and said, "Yes, he has been emphasizing this matter from the beginning!"
"Well, I'm going to meet this person later! Okay, third child, when the major forces come to pay their respects tomorrow, by the way, announce that you will take over as the head of the family!"
"Yes..."Xu Changshou nodded, really about to step aside, but suddenly reacted, and was suddenly startled: "Huh?
"It's decided, the eldest and the second, after the third inherits the position of the head of the family, the two of you will still do your own business, the same as before, but any major event, you must report to the third brother, and the three brothers will discuss it carefully and grow the Xu family together!"
He stood up abruptly and said in a cold voice: "If you find that the three of you brothers have internal strife, I will punish them severely, and if there is any brother cannibalism, I will kill them!"
Glancing at the three of them, he sat down slowly, "Eldest and second, don't be resentful because your father didn't give you the position of head of the family, do you think that a family, is diplomacy or business important? If you have the diplomatic skills of the third child in the future, the position of the head of the family will be yours!"
"The reason why I chose a new head of the family is because I am rarely at home, you and the second child are in separate positions, and there are many vicious comparisons, so that our Xu family is scattered! Now that the third child is the head of the family, I will not give him more rights, and it is the same as before, just to unite your three brothers and unite our Xu family, understand?"
"Father, we understand!" Xu Changfu and Xu Changlu nodded, "In the future, the two of us will work with the third brother to build the Xu family even stronger!"
Xu Henian nodded with satisfaction, and suddenly smiled: "I will leave some eyeliner at home, don't escape my eyes with your every move!"
The three brothers only smiled bitterly.
Xu Henian looked at his grandchildren and said with a smile: "Children, as the saying goes, one generation is close, two generations are far away, and no one shouts when the third generation sees it, but a family, if it wants to become a big family that has been inherited for thousands of years, every child of the family must love each other like brothers, everyone has the same blood in their bones, and only by firmly hugging each other can they have a foothold in this divine realm!"
"Now I am alive, and if one day I die, or I lose everything I have now, what will you do......?
Ji Yun always peeped, and suddenly admired this Xu Henian, except for the sentence 'the master must have absolute majesty' made him feel a little wrong, the rest of the words can almost be used as a family creed.
He's right!
The person who can say these things must not be a fool.
Ji Yun smiled bitterly, and said secretly in his heart: "Even if you are not a fool, I still want to trap you!"
The Xu family stayed in the courtyard for a whole afternoon, and when they came out, the sky had already darkened, but this did not affect the holding of the birthday banquet and the enthusiasm of the participants.
Ji Yun didn't know when Xu Henian would see him, so he had to wait patiently with Ha Mou and the others.
The Xu family set up a banquet, it was indeed sumptuous, a wave of banquets sat down, Ji Yun was full, he was a little anxious, Xu Henian seemed to have forgotten to see himself, and drank happily with others.
"Ladies and gentlemen, I have been friends with you for a long time, but I have a good relationship, today I thank you for your face, come to congratulate Xu on his birthday, Xu thank you for coming, and specially prepare a table of green fire jujube banquet! Although this banquet is not all green fire dates, nor does it have the ability to frantically improve cultivation like green fire dates, but the main ingredient is also green fire dates, after eating, it is more or less beneficial to cultivation!" Xu Henian waved his hand, "Serve!"
In an instant, a wave of dishes was put away, and another wave of delicious food was served.
As soon as everyone heard that it was a delicious dish made with green fire dates as the main ingredient, they couldn't wait for it, and they rushed it out as soon as it was served, and they praised it before they tasted it.
Ji Yun pursed his lips secretly and didn't eat a bite.
After three rounds of wine again, the dish was already over, Xu Henian stood up and said with a smile: "There is no interest in wine, how can it be the way of a drinker, the third child, you come here!"
Xu Changshou hurriedly went up, Xu Henian whispered for a while, Xu Changshou left in a hurry, and then Xu Henian raised his hand and said with a smile: "My son Xu Changshou met a young hero today..."
When Ji Yun heard this, his heart suddenly jumped, this old man didn't want to let himself come forward to play monkey to help him drink, right?
He was too lazy to do it, and as soon as his mind moved, cold sweat rolled on his forehead, and he shrank out of the crowd.
As soon as he stood still, Xu Changshou walked over, and when he saw Ji Yun's appearance, he was suddenly surprised: "Mr. Ji, what's wrong?"
"In the battle that day, I suffered some dark wounds, but before I recovered, I drank a little more wine, and suddenly I had a seizure. ”
"This..."Xu Changshou was stunned, "It doesn't matter, right?"
"Xu Sanye, Ji is out of company first, I need to sit quietly to heal!"
"Well, there you go!" Xu Changshou nodded.
Ji Yun left quickly, and as soon as he returned to the house, he immediately sat down cross-legged, pretending to cultivate, but in fact, he used F3 to peek at the situation over there.
Sure enough, Xu Henian mentioned his name.
But Ji Yun suddenly found that when Xu Henian mentioned his name, several people in the crowd frowned, revealing a look of surprise.
"Who are they?" Ji Yun felt a pang in his heart, if these people knew him, it would be lively, he thought that in this vast divine realm, there were only a few people who knew him, and his original intention was to act in a high-profile manner, if someone really knew, his goal would be achieved.
Xu Changshou ran up and talked to Mrs. Xu, but Mrs. Xu just frowned, so she no longer looked deeper, but asked Xu Changshou to call Ha Mou over.
Ha Mou replaced Ji Yun, and people from other forces wanted to show their talents, so they sent people to help the fun.
There was nothing to say all night, the next day was the banquet, Ji Yun still did not participate, on the third day Xu Changshou took office, Ji Yun still did not participate, on the third night, the Xu family compound returned to calm, and after three days of carnival, it was a mess, and after everyone left and the servants cleaned up, Mrs. Xu asked the family to start building.
The courtyard gate of the original eldest and second child was dug up, and the entire Xu family once again resumed the situation of only one gate.
Xu Henian was walking in the courtyard, Ha Mou and Xu Changshou specially mentioned Ji Yun, and Xu Henian finally remembered.
"Third child, are you in a hurry to introduce this person to me, is it because you can't see through this person?
"The child is stupid, doesn't he still have his father to help find out the details of this person, although he always said that he wanted to use your relationship to join the Yunxian Palace, but the child didn't know the specifics. ”
"You're quite honest, call him over, I'll see who this person is!"
Xu Changshou hurriedly asked Ha Mou to invite Ji Yun, Ji Yun already knew the situation over there, and his backhand was a spatial fault, which he hid in, instantly summoned a clone, and at the same time changed the consciousness of the clone with the power of his mind.
He couldn't see through this Xu Henian's cultivation, and he didn't know why this person's god-like ability to observe people was, so for the sake of safety, Ji Yun decided not to come forward.
When Xu Henian saw Ji Yun's clone, the whole person returned to the kind of warm appearance when facing outsiders, looked Ji Yun up and down, and said with a smile: "You are Ji Yun?"
"Ji Yun has seen his predecessors!" Ji Yun's doppelganger looked respectful and fanatical, completely 'from the heart'.
"Well, you're very good!" Xu Henian said with a smile, "I heard that you helped the Xu family and wanted to enter the Yunxian Palace through me?"
"Yes, I have lost too much because of my cultivation, family affection, love, life... So I don't want to cultivate for the sake of cultivating like this anymore. Ji Yun looked sad, and the people who saw it were sad.
At this moment, Ji Yun's heart suddenly moved, and an indescribable sense of awkwardness appeared in his heart, as if his past and future, and even his inner world had been cut open and examined carefully.
"Could it be... Does this Xu Henian really have this kind of strange ability?But what kind of magical power is this?" Ji Yun is chilling here, this Xu Henian is too terrifying, right?
The point is that this kind of supernatural power is definitely not the law of time!
