Chapter 875: In the Sword Furnace
"The difficulty of the three families, I was shocked to hear about it, and I dared to do such an evil thing in the city, presumably this thief must be a madman from the devil's way, if the adults want to ask anything, they will definitely know everything."
Huo Yunqi is an understanding person, and after a simple temptation, he understood the current situation of the Huo family, and he immediately lowered his posture and put on enough sincerity.
Xu He could more or less guess what this person was thinking, after all, it was impossible for a family head who knew how to advance and retreat to let a stunned young man guard at the door.
Because of this, he is particularly disgusted with Huo Yunqi, but Xu He has a clear distinction between public and private, and he will not have any opinion about the Huo family because of his personal likes and dislikes.
He seriously asked the other party a few basic questions, Huo Yunqi answered them fluently, and after Xu He's orders and peers were recorded, every move seemed to be a routine.
Huo Yunqi was already very intelligent, and the affairs of the three families, he was clear, and he was not afraid of Xu Hecha at all, but what he didn't expect was that when everything was about to end, Xu He would try to see the dagger.
"The stakes are very high, this head catcher wants to take someone to search the Huo family, Huo Gongzi doesn't mind, right?" Xu He's sudden proposal caught Huo Yunqi a little off guard.
Huo Yunqi was stunned, and the steward of the Huo family behind him said sternly: "My lord, this is not appropriate, please think twice about the search, there are many female dependents in the backyard of the Huo family, and all of you are foreign men, which is not in line with etiquette." ”
Another chivalrous man sitting in the hall also relied on his identity and not weak martial arts to the Huo family, and said: "The steward is right, besides, the Huo family is not a suspect, and the affairs of the three families have nothing to do with us, is your move too much." ”
Xu He stood with his hands in his hands, and did not speak, and he sneered behind him: "Whether the Huo family is innocent or not, we have our own judgment after the search, you shirk it like this, is there a ghost in your heart?" ”
The steward's eyes widened, and he said angrily, "You—a bloody spurt!" ”
"That's it!"
Seeing that the atmosphere in the hall was tense again, Huo Yunqi came forward again, and he said in a deep voice: "You are also acting on official business, so naturally you don't dare to stop it." ”
"Head of the house!"
"Huo Gongzi!"
Everyone in the Huo family was either shocked or unwilling, but since Huo Yunqi had spoken, the matter was decided.
Xu He was not polite, and began to search with people, letting a group of arresters act recklessly at home, everyone in the Huo family was a little angry on their faces, and they were also a little sad, if the Sword Casting Villa still existed, why did they do this.
The Huo family is not big, much smaller than the three major families, and soon the catchers will report back to Xu He: "Xu Tou, there is no problem in the east." ”
"Xu Tou, West Side"
With a person's return, the last one to come back was surprised: "Xu Tou!" There is a strange place in the north, and the people of the Huo family are guarding and not letting them enter. ”
Xu He's closed gaze suddenly opened, and a ray of essence light emanated from it, and his gaze fell on Huo Yunqi, this time, the other party did not compromise again.
Huo Yunqi took a deep breath and said without humility or arrogance: "Your Excellency, the place in the north is a newly opened sword casting furnace, which is all secrets of the Huo family, and you can't be allowed to enter it, please forgive me." ”
The Huo family's sword-forging technique is well-known in the rivers and lakes, and besides, this kind of secret technique is related to the family inheritance, so it is natural to take it seriously, and there is not much wrong with this statement.
The only problem is that Xu He is too serious.
"Huo Gongzi, this head catcher can swear to promise never to reveal anything he sees, so, okay?" Xu He's words seemed to have made up his mind to go down and take a look.
Huo Yunqi was a little annoyed: "My lord, even if it is an official of the imperial court, you can't make fun of my Huo family's secret at will, please forgive me." ”
"In that case."
Xu He sighed lightly, and his attitude seemed to have loosened, but just when Huo Yunqi put down the stone in his heart, this head catcher actually rushed out of the hall with an arrow step, and the change was so sudden that everyone was unexpected.
The steward of the Huo family, who was half a beat slower, came back to his senses, and he hurriedly shouted: "Stop him!" ”
"I see who dares!"
The Huo family made a move here, and these fast catchers were not to be outdone, and they drew their swords one after another.
It is worth mentioning that these martial arts of catching fast are actually mediocre, and the reason why they are not afraid of the Huo family is that this group of people knows very little about the history and reputation of Sword Casting Villa.
They have been on errands in the Eastern Capital for many years, and they have always only been respected, and it is indeed rare for someone like the Huo family to draw a sword without saying a word, which is similar to the Huo family.
The two sides were short of each other, the fast catchers were outnumbered, and there were many masters of the Huo family, so naturally the army was defeated in the end, but fortunately, Huo Yunqi was still sane, and before chasing out, he shouted loudly to stop everyone from being heavy-handed.
Xu He and Huo Yunqi rushed towards the north one after the other, and along the way, there were a few people from the Huo family who discovered that something was wrong and tried to stop them, but unfortunately they were all powerless.
Xu He, the head catcher, is not the same as those under his command, this person's kung fu is good, and the reason why his reputation is not obvious is because Dongdu has not produced a thief who is enough for him to show his skills for many years.
Huo Yunqi was chasing after him, he was also frightened, he had never heard of such a master in the Eastern Capital, this Xu He's martial arts of catching heads, I was afraid that it was not under him.
Although Huo Yunqi behind him was unsheathed, he still hesitated and didn't dare to move, until the gate of the sword furnace was close in front of him, he finally stopped hesitating, gritted his teeth and slashed out a sword light.
The sword roared to the sky behind him, Xu He immediately drew his sword to face it, and the ordinary Pu knife rolled up a burst of wild sand and danced, and the sharp sword light suddenly flashed in the wind and sand, and the sword qi almost collapsed with a touch.
Huo Yunqi was shocked by this wind and waves, his feet retreated a few feet, and he stabilized his body after a stumble, and he said uncertainly: "It's not good to be so strong in martial arts!" ”
As he spoke, Xu He had already kicked away the guards who were blocking the way, and even the gate with the sword furnace was kicked open by him, and Huo Yunqi secretly hated.
He is not hiding anything, but because the sword furnace is related to the Huo family's method of forging swords, it is an important place no less than the family ancestral hall.
But at this time, he never thought that there was really a person hidden in this sword furnace.
After Xu He broke the door, the first thing that caught his eye was the Moon Shadow Sword that exuded terrifying power in the sword furnace, and then the sneaky person on the side of the sword furnace, the other party was covered in a black robe and covered with a hood, no matter how he looked at it, he didn't look like a bright and upright person.
This person is Qian Xiaoxiao, the Holy Maiden of the Xuantian Sect after the murder of the three families.
She came to the Eastern Capital, and after a little inquiry, she learned about the big event that happened today, and the story of the three masters besieging a disciple of the Qingcheng faction of the Huo family has been made into a new joke in the street teahouse.
For the matter of Tianquan, Qian Xiaoxiao has never been lazy, the death of the free and easy moon from the wind gave her a sense of relief to see the sun, and the people of the three families appeared in her eyes at this time, which was undoubtedly a layer of haze for the first beautiful daylight.
Whether she admits it or not, Qian Xiaoxiao, who has cultivated the Shadow Technique, has indeed fallen into the devil very deeply, and killing people is no longer an unacceptable thing in her eyes, and even after all kinds of experiences, she feels that it is all normal.
So she didn't stop, and quickly killed the people of the three families, and it wasn't that she had much thought about it when she avoided the Huo family, but when she heard that Tianquan was now living in the Huo family, she also took advantage of the situation to settle here.
There are not many places in the Huo family where people can hide, and it seems that this sword furnace is the only place, from Wen Shenyang to Huangfu Xiaoyuan, and then to Gongsun Huan before that, they all seem to have chosen here.
And now, Xu He discovered Qian Xiaoxiao, and Huo Yunqi, who was a step slower, also discovered the other party, and the atmosphere in the sword furnace gradually became weird.
