Chapter 172: The Man Who Injured the Old Monster
On the stove, the water in the stone was boiled and boiled, and the boiling water opened the lid and overflowed onto the red coals, making a burst of "z-la, z-la" sounds, but a few people only took a few sips at the beginning, and then did not pick up the cup, Xiao Cong only poured water once during the period, so he could only let the boiling water be angry on the stove.
Finally, it was Xiao Tianyu who took the lead in breaking the cold and thin atmosphere, he first smiled to himself, and then said:
"You and I have a rare get-together, how can we let silence entertain this great situation, let's leave this question aside for a moment, come, Xiao Cong, tell us about your trip to Murong Mansion?"
Xiao Cong raised his eyes and secretly glanced at Xiao Tianyu, and saw that the latter was looking at him with a spring breeze on his face, and then secretly glanced at the old monster, and found that although this guy pretended to be calm, his expression was still a little uncertain, and he slowly stood up.
"It's okay, just sit and talk. Xiao Tianyu waved his hand slowly.
So he sat down slowly, and looked at his father, who was happy and happy, and felt that the old man was holding some bad water in his heart, so he decided to make a long story short, so as not to give the old man another opportunity to take advantage of it, so that he could let go of his strange and unpredictable moths.
"After we arrived at Murong's house, under the leadership of Murong Tang, we walked around their family's divine vault, each chose a favorite thing, and then had a meal with the people in their clan and came back.
"Oh, that's right. Xiao Tianyu nodded with a smile, "What kind of treasure did my son choose, can you take it out and let my father see it?"
Xiao Cong took out the illusion and respectfully handed it to Xiao Tianyu, who took it and put it in front of him for a long time, his eyes narrowed into a slit, and he looked very serious, and then he put the ring on his hand, his face was obviously stunned, and it was replaced by a slightly silly expression, the blurred little eyes, the slightly upturned mustache, the more Xiao Cong looked at it, the more he wanted to laugh, it was the first time he saw such an expression on the face of Xiao Tianyu, who had never been smiling, how to say it, very silly but very cute.
After a while, Xiao Tianyu took off the ring, his face returned to normal, and he smiled with a retrospective smile:
"Yes, it's a good thing.
"If the father also likes it, then it is time to honor the father, and the child is careful, and he hopes that the father will accept it. “
Xiao Cong's innocent little face was full of hope, his eyes were crystal clear, and he didn't mean anything pretentious, who knew that Xiao Tianyu slowly shook his head and said,
"Forget it, this thing is more useful to you than to me, and besides, you didn't choose it specifically for me. “
There was a hint of arrogance in his tone.
Xiao Cong smirked, scratched his head, and his curved eyebrows and slightly pursed lips indicated that he was really a little embarrassed.
"This... This is actually not chosen by me, it was chosen by Old Man Murong for the child, hehe. ”
"Yo, this old man Murong is really generous, he gave you such a big gift casually, can you still feel at ease when you receive it?" Xiao Tianyu teased with a wonderful expression.
"What's wrong with this, I want to give it to me if he gives it to me, and he gives it a gift
The bigger it is, the more weak he is, I'm not afraid of the shadow crooked, what's wrong with accepting him openly!"
"Hehe, you little ghost, your mind is about to go to Murong Hall. ”
Xiao Cong scoffed,
"Oh, I'm not as good as him, that guy is the real scheming and scheming, I'm dozens worse than him, I think we may not be going to the Murong family's real divine treasury, where is there any real good things." ”
Xiao Tianyu smiled,
"Heh, your kid's heart is quite dark, you are a formation master, if he takes you to the real god vault, wouldn't it be extremely stupid, boy, you will be content. ”
"The Murong family is thoughtful, and it is better for the fourth young master to be cautious when working with them. The old monster reminded in a deep voice, sounding like he had a lot of criticism for the Murong family.
"Oh, do you have any suggestions for this, you might as well talk about it, the little guy will walk in the future, and what he lacks is the mention of his experienced predecessors like you. ”
The old monster had a serious expression and straightened his body,
"I can't mention it, it's just that the whole Xuan Zhen knows the face of this Murong family's profiteer, and the baht must be compared, and the eyes must be repaid, if you take him today, he will definitely let you pay it back twice as much. ”
After a pause, he added:
"Audacious, I don't know the depth!"
"In this way, this Murong family really has to be guarded against. Xiao Tianyu groaned, and he continued: "Could it be that the poison of the Japanese punishment imposed by the predecessors has something to do with the Murong family, if this is the case, then the matter makes sense, after all, the Japanese punishment is not something that anyone can get." ”
The old monster sighed,
"I won't tell you the truth, in fact, I also have this suspicion, not only the daily punishment, but also the box mixed with Qi Zhenmu, and I finally appeared in the Murong family's auction house, all kinds of clues point to the Murong family, and it is the fourth prince who has to meet the loss, otherwise, I am afraid that the old man and I would have died in Huangquan long ago." ”
There was a slight relief in his tone, and then he glanced at Xiao Cong with deep meaning and nodded.
Xiao Cong felt something,
"Presumably that's my father's purpose, what does he want to know from the old monster?"
"Presumably the Murong family is not the mastermind, otherwise the box would not have fallen into Xiao Cong's hands by accident, if the top and bottom are unanimous, how could there be such a fork, this Murong family is rotten from the inside out, but fortunately, it is not rotten to the root. ”
"Patriarch Xiao doesn't dare to agree when he sees the old man, I think this is the Murong family's deliberate misfortune to the fourth young master, if I die at the hands of the fourth young master, then this matter has nothing to do with them. ”
"What you said is not unreasonable, but the Murong family has always acted cautiously, they will never act rashly when they are not sure whether you will die in the hands of Xiao Cong, and besides, it is also a great suspicion that they have traveled thousands of miles to send you to the Holy City, there must be someone else who is doing something in the way. ”
Xiao Tianyu looked at the old monster motionlessly, and his tone was fixed.
"According to what the patriarch saw, who did it and what was the purpose?"
"I don't know about it
, maybe we have to see who is most valuable to the life of our predecessors. ”
Xiao Tianyu's words are equivalent to saying in vain, the vast and mysterious, the light is bizarre, if you talk about who the old monster is most valuable, this must be unclear.
"Could it be Ye Fangcheng!" Steward Qin's expression was slightly solemn, his eyebrows lowered, as if he was thinking about something.
"Huh?" Xiao Tianyu raised his eyebrows slightly, and seemed to be a little more interested,
"Old Qin, what do you say? ”
Steward Qin glanced at Xiao Tianyu and said after a little consideration:
"If I remember correctly, the Fourth Young Master asked Young Master Ouyang to go to the Murong family's auction house to bring back his predecessors in order to cultivate the Twenty-Nine Sword Sealing Mountain Formation, and this was after the collapse of the Holy Mountain, at that time, Ye Fangcheng was probably already coveted in the Holy City for a long time, and he had been cultivating the Blood Shadow Dafa for so many years, and now he should have cultivated to the level where he needed the blood of his predecessors, so he ......"
"So you think it was Ye Fangcheng who asked the Murong family to poison his seniors?" Xiao Xiaotianyu took over.
"Exactly. ”
Xiao Tianyu stroked his mustache and groaned for a long time, then shook his head,
"Your logic is not right, the Murong family only supplies the goods, and never participates in the purchase of murder, you just said that there is also a box mixed with Qi Zhenmu, which Ye Fangcheng may not be able to buy if he sells the entire Yefu, and even if he can afford it, the Murong family may not be willing to sell him, there is someone else in this matter. ”
"No, what Steward Qin said is not unreasonable, the person who injured me that day had a strong blood, strange techniques, and terrifying cultivation, and when he was fighting in close quarters with him, the old man did smell an extraordinarily dignified bloody aura. ”
"Can he be a doppelganger, and he can recover immediately after being injured by you?"
"The old man didn't find out. The old monster frowned.
Xiao Tianyu propped his arms on the edge of the table, rubbed the corners of his forehead vigorously, and said while rubbing:
"You and I have insufficient evidence, don't make judgments, so as not to lead in the wrong direction, then it will be troublesome, let this matter go, let's see, but Tianyu thinks that Murong Tang should not have any big problems, Xing Guanghao They are not fools, the trade-offs in their hearts are much more shrewd and fair than ours, if the Murong family is really rotten, I am afraid that they have been stepped under Xing Guanghao's iron hooves at this time. ”
He put down his hand, turned his head to look at the sky, and continued:
"It's not early, let's go back and rest for a while, and Lao Qin will go and prepare dinner." ”
After speaking, the four of them got up at the same time, bowed to each other, and went out one after another.
