Obviously there is a better way to put the family in danger, and even to activate the bloodline diversion system, this decision is undoubtedly stupid in Xiao Zheng's eyes, he thinks that the Council of Elders can pass this resolution.

But things in the world are always so unexpected.

"Why bother. Xiao Jinlin's tiger eyes were full of smiles: "Please come out, elders." ”

Xiao Zheng was shocked, looking at the screen behind the middle hall, the six Xiao Clan Great Elders had heavy faces, and they came out.

"Do you think so?" Xiao Jinlin stood up and asked the six Xiao Clan Elders.

Several elders of the Xiao family made eye contact, and the eldest elder Xiao An said in a deep voice: "Just do what the patriarch wants." ”

The other elders also nodded in agreement, and after Xiao Jinlin received the support of all the elders of the council, he turned his head to look at Xiao Zhengdao, who was distracted: "Now, what other objections do you have?"

Xiao Zheng, who had lost his soul, heard these words, and looked up at the six elders, these six representatives of the best clansmen of the Xiao clan were all standing on Xiao Jinlin's side without exception, which was something he had never expected.

But now, as long as he still regards himself as a member of the Xiao clan, he can't resist the patriarch's order with the support of the Council of Elders, but when he thinks of the heavy responsibility of blood diversion will be on his shoulders, Xiao Zheng suddenly got a wall in his chest, coughed up a mouthful of blood, and a few words flowed out from between his teeth: "Cough.. No, yes, yes, no!"

At this moment, the door of the middle hall suddenly opened, and it was Xiao Qi, who was guarding the atrium, who broke in, with an extremely strange expression, and saluted to the people on the upper position: "I have seen the patriarch, I have seen the six elders, and I have something important to report." ”

"When?" Xiao Jinlin frowned, he knew a lot about the character of his second son, if it weren't for the extremely urgent matter, he would never disturb this meeting in the middle hall, but he really couldn't think that what was more important in Xiling now than the meeting of the family to start the bloodline diversion, so that Xiao Qi would have to communicate at this moment.

Not only Xiao Jinlin, but even the six elders also focused their eyes on Xiao Qi, full of doubts.

Facing everyone's gaze, Xiao Qi took a long breath, brushed his chaotic thoughts, and raised his head and said: "A secret passage connecting the sect in the inner city of Xiling was suddenly opened, I went to check, and found that it was Tang Zhi, the patriarch of the Tang clan, who asked to see the patriarch. He also said that this matter is more important than anything else, no matter what the patriarch is doing now, let me report it directly, he is waiting in the side hall of the sect now, may I ask the patriarch what to do..."

He wanted to say disposition, but when he thought of Tang Zhi's identity, he couldn't say those two words.

The patriarch of the strongest clan in Xiling, who passed through the Xiao clan's secret passage alone, actually appeared in the Xiao clan's sect. Regardless of identity, the other party was younger than him, and he was just a martial artist at the peak of his transformation, but it brought a mountain of pressure to Xiao Qi, so that when he faced Tang Zhi's assignment, he did it without hesitation.

When Xiao Jinlin heard Xiao Qi's words, a pair of tiger eyes burst out with dazzling light, and asked, "He is in the side hall now?"

He felt that he still underestimated Tang Zhi, and thought that it would be great if he could persuade the rest of the Tang clan within a month, but how long has it been since he had done this, and he came to the Xiao clan alone, didn't he know that if he had a thought, this Tang clan ruler would be doomed, if it was sincerity, there was no greater sincerity than now.

"Take me to him. Xiao Jinlin stood up and said to Xiao Qi, then turned to a few elders and said, "The monarchs are waiting in the side hall, and before I come back, don't start the matter of blood diversion." ”

......

The Shaw Clan, the side hall and the quiet room

This should be the place where Xiao Jinlin drinks tea every day, so there are no formal banquet tables and chairs, and there is only one tea table and two futons in a small room.

The four white walls are empty, only on the wall facing the tea table, there is a picture of a fierce tiger, a white-fronted tiger with hanging eyes, hanging upside down on the cliff mountain ready to kill the prey, the murderous spirit is exhausted, containing but not leaking, the painting is extremely expressive.

The tea house that was supposed to belong to the owner is now sitting with the patriarch of the Tang clan, Tang Zhi himself also loves the tea ceremony, and when he saw this exquisite tea set, he took care of making tea by himself.

Scalding pot, tea, warm cup, high flush, low bubble, tea distribution, smelling fragrance.

When he picked up the teacup, he heard someone coming at the door, so he invited: "Patriarch Xiao is just in time, please come into the house and taste tea." ”

"That's the bother. The old and hoarse voice sounded, and Xiao Jinlin, like a guest, softly pushed open the door of the quiet room, turned around and closed the door.

A few steps to the futon belonging to the guest, sit down and hold the teacup in front of you, first look at its color, smell its fragrance, and then taste it.

There were only two people tasting tea in the quiet room, and after drinking a cup of tea, the fragrance of tea was left in his lips and teeth, Xiao Jinlin sighed: "These tea sets are fried by the old man himself, but he doesn't want to be able to brew such a taste, the Tang patriarch is really superior." ”

"Patriarch Xiao is a master, in Xiling is so unsuitable for growing tea can grow such good tea, if there is no such good tea, no matter how precious the tea set is, no matter how exquisite the tea ceremony is, it can only be helped. Tang Zhi chuckled.

Xiao Jinlin looked at the person in front of him and sighed: "Patriarch Tang came this time, not just to have tea with the old man. ”

"The intention of the younger generation, Patriarch Xiao should be very clear. Tang Zhi's eyes were full of smiles, since he was a child, Xiao Jinlin was the patriarch of the Xiao family, at that time his reputation in Xiling was in full swing, and it was rumored in the streets and alleys that if Xiao Jinlin was the patriarch of the Tang clan or the Mi clan, he would have dominated Xiling long ago.

At that time, he thought that if one day he could become the patriarch and be recognized by the Xiling people, he would have no regrets about dying!

I can't imagine that twenty years later, I can sit and drink tea with my childhood goal, how funny it is.

Raising the teapot, Tang Zhi gave Xiao Jinlin another cup of tea: "This second tea is better than the first, Patriarch Xiao, please." ”

After another while, Xiao Jinlin put down the teacup and said: "The old man of the Tang patriarch naturally knows what he wants, but how can the jackal know that he killed the cheetah with the lion, and he will not be the next ration." ”

"Jackal, Patriarch Xiao is too modest. Tang Zhi smiled and took out the scroll from his arms and handed it to Xiao Jinlin, saying, "Please take a look." ”

Xiao Jinlin took the scroll and unfolded it directly, and the dense fly-headed Xiaokai came into view, and the old man's tiger eyes became more and more dignified, and the murderous aura became more and more vigorous.

Closing the scroll, the old man locked a pair of tiger eyes on Tang Zhi's face, and asked with murderous aura, "What does Patriarch Tang mean by this?"

"Patriarch Xiao. Tang Zhi put down the teacup in his hand and said seriously: "The Tang Clan's Wind Media has only done a few things over the years, and one of them is to investigate all the bright and dark lines of the Xiao Clan, and all the direct bloodlines. Here's the list, and there's a more detailed list. ”

"I don't know what Patriarch Xiao thinks is sincere, but I think that if Patriarch Xiao is willing to cooperate with my Tang Clan, I will order the list of the Xiao Clan to be destroyed. ”
