Chapter 178: Deep Water, Retreat
A sound of blowing sounded for no reason, and it immediately attracted the attention of everyone in the main hall.
"Horn, suona?"
Someone heard what kind of thing there was, and they recognized it cleverly, and asked with a smile in their mouths:
"Is there any family in the clan who is going to marry today? Listening to this voice, it is still joyful and lively. ”
But then to the surprise of everyone in the hall, the sound of the blow became clearer and more obvious, as if it was heading straight for the main hall.
The people of the Yu family and the Huang family, who were in shock, subconsciously focused their eyes on Yu Lie, who had just appeared and revealed the identity of the Eight Rank Daoists, and they suspected that the blowing sound outside the hall was brought by Yu Lie.
However, Yu Lie listened to the sudden sound of blowing, and his face also showed surprise, and he looked at the rest of the people in the hall in surprise.
At this time, the patriarch of the Yu family paused and said to Yu Lie jokingly:
"Yu Lie, but your fellow Daoists specially came to our family to congratulate you on your promotion? I didn't say it earlier, so I might as well make some arrangements in the clan. ”
When Yu Lie heard this, he raised his eyebrows slightly, he groaned, and he didn't bother to hide it, so he directly arched his hand and said:
"No, Poor Dao returned to Diving County this time, but he was alone. As soon as he returned to the county seat, he rushed to the clan, and he had not yet had time to reunite with his friends in the city. ”
Hearing these words, the Yu family patriarch frowned, and the Huang family elder next to him was also slightly puzzled.
However, the atmosphere in the old hall of the Huang family was interrupted again, and anger rose on his face, and he drank:
"Patriarch Yu, whether there is a happy event to be done in your clan or a funeral to be done today, I would like to persuade you to discuss the business in front of you with the poor Dao first, and then talk about other irrelevant things. Otherwise, it will not be obsolete. ”
When the patriarch of the Yu family heard the cheers, his face showed a look of smuggleness, and he arched his hand and said, "What Huang Daoyou said is exact. ”
He then looked at the elder of the Huang family and the rest of the column beside him expectantly, and said:
"Huang Daoyou, today the rest of our clan returns to the clan, why don't we wait for the three of us to go to the private room in the clan and discuss this matter carefully. Other people, fellow Daoists, you only need to give some words of appeasement first, give them a letter of approval, and their hearts will fall into their stomachs, and they will no longer quarrel with Daoists. ”
The head of the Yu family is hinting at the elders of the Huang family, so that the people of the Huang family can see that the Yu family has a new Taoist, let them make concessions, don't go too far.
When the elder of the Huang family heard this, his face also showed hesitation.
Although he still counts himself in the self-reliance clan, there are a total of four Taoist disciples, and the family is still higher than the Yu family, but there is a change today, and he is not sure about Yu Lie's specific potential and identity, it seems that he really has to save some face for the Yu family, and he can't completely tear his face.
But at this moment, Yu Lie next to him sneered:
"Why bother. Patriarch, the work of the Huang family and my Yu family, etc., but signed a contract? ”
Hearing this, the patriarch of the Yu family nodded subconsciously: "Yes." ”
Yu Lie asked again: "Did the contract stipulate the time limit for payment and mortgage?" ”
The head of the Yu family stiffened his face and nodded, he was already faintly aware of what Yu Lie wanted to say.
The old man of the Huang family next to him had his eyes slightly narrowed, and his face was also cold.
Sure enough, the next sentence in the remaining column is:
"Since the deadline has been agreed, then it is enough to do things according to the rules, why procrastinate so much! If the time limit has passed, I will go to the yamen in the city to ask for instructions, so as to show justice, and give an order. ”
After that, Yu Lie was still staring at the Huang family, and said in a cold voice:
"All the people of my Yu family work for your Huang family, just work, and they are not slaves of your Huang family.
Wages are a thing, and your Huang family can give it if you want to. I don't want to give, it's what my Yu family deserves, I should give it! You can't wait! ”
When everyone in the Yu family heard this, their faces turned red and they were excited.
Many of them waited for the rest of the column's voice to fall, and immediately drank out a word:
"Good!" "Color! ”
"The third brother said it very well!" "Brother Lie's right! ”
Even the patriarch of the Yu family, who was embarrassed, actually spit out a breath of depression in his heart.
It is said that this guy has been with the people of the Huang family for a long time today, and he has said a lot of good things, but the Huang family just refuses to fulfill the contract, which makes him also annoyed in his heart.
Now Yu Lie's words can be regarded as saying what the Yu family patriarch wanted to say but didn't dare to say.
However, the patriarch of the Yu family was so face-stricken, he didn't applaud like other clansmen, he just silently gave up a step, gave up his position to Yu Lie, and let Yu Lie confront the other party.
This guy is half a human spirit, and he pondered in his heart:
"Yu Lie's new enlightened disciples, when my clan has a great confidence. And when he was young, he should have said something cruel. Even if something goes wrong and hurts the harmony between the two clans, he is young and can explain it back. ”
The old man of the Huang family was scolded like this by Yu Lie in front of him, and his face suddenly twitched.
Especially when Huang Jiasu looked at Yu Lie's too young appearance, the anger and resentment in his heart, as well as a trace of jealousy, made him laugh angrily, and said coldly:
"Yellow-mouthed child! Even if you have become a Taoist disciple and returned to Diving County, you are a person who has been away for three years, and the Taoist leaders in the city will not recognize you at all. With your confession, are you sure you can enter the yamen? After entering the yamen, can you find someone to do things? ”
Huang Jiasu said as if threatening:
"Could it be that my Huang family really lacks your family's wages?
Young man, the water is so deep that you can't get to the bottom of it. Poor Dao suggests that as soon as you come back, you will desperately want to mix, so as not to delay your future in vain. ”
Threatening, the old man of the Huang family smiled as if he suddenly remembered something:
"The old man suggests that you might as well learn from the noble son of your family, and cut off this broken family as soon as possible, this is the right reason."
These words made the Yu family in the hall buzz, and the Yu family patriarch next to him was even more embarrassed and angry.
But the Yu family patriarch didn't know how to refute, he lowered his head, showed a look of shame, and was speechless.
When Yu Lie heard the other party's words, he also frowned slightly, and pondered in his heart:
"What this person said is indeed worthy of vigilance, what kind of situation is the Yu family in now......
Seeing that Yu Lie was silent, the chuckle on his face turned into a loud laugh.
He arched his hand towards Yu Lie, and suddenly said in a soothing tone, "That's it!" Yu Daoyou, what the old man said just now was abrupt. Today is a good day for Yu Daoyou to go home after being promoted, and it is really not a Yaxing that should not sweep Daoyou. ”
The man groaned, and said:
"In that case, the poor road will give way today. The Yu family's money and food are just small things. Poor Dao can give a quasi-word, if Yu Lie Daoist friends are willing to come to my Huang family tomorrow to be a guest, they will definitely pay in full, so that everyone can have a good year. ”
After speaking, the elder Huang Jiasu waved his sleeves, arched his hand towards the surrounding Yu family and others, and walked out of the hall with a few people from his own family.
Among them, Yu Lie, the second sister who got married, looked at Yu Lie hesitantly, but she still chose to keep her mouth shut and hurriedly followed the Huang family and others.
At this time, the sound of blowing outside the hall was still loud, very noisy, and there was no intention of stopping.
So the old man of the Huang family shook his head while walking, and said with regret in his mouth:
"Tsk, a huge family, how can it be so noisy in the clan, what kind of system is this. Is it really broken? ”
When the people of the Yu family saw this, almost everyone was indignant and furious.
"What a Huang family! There's no king's way! ”
"In these years, the one who owes money is the uncle?"
In particular, many of them, because of the appearance of Yu Lie, there was hope in their hearts, but today they still did not solve the matter of asking for money, and they were even more disappointed than Yu Lie just before he entered the door.
Someone couldn't help it, and shouted at Yu Lie and asked, "Brother Lie, why don't you keep quiet?" ”
Some people also excited: "Brother Lie, you talk and count, go!" Let's go to the yamen now and sue him for the Huang family! ”
And Yu Lie stood in the middle of the room, and when he heard the noisy words in the hall, he only frowned a few more times, and was indifferent.
He was not angered by the words of the elder of the Huang family, nor was he stimulated by the words of the people around him, so he rationally chose to stand in the middle of the field and watch the people of the Huang family walk away.
Indeed, as the old guy surnamed Huang said, Yu Lie still has to take care of the dispute between the two clans, to what extent.
If the water in it is really a bit deep, and he can't wait to step into it, that's the ugliness of the most laughing thing.
And the most anxious and angry thing in the scene should not be Yu Lie.
Yu Lie glanced at the silent Yu family patriarch next to him.
The footsteps of the Huang family and others sounded one by one.
"Two Taoist friends, you don't need to send them far."
The sound of chuckling sounded from the Huang family and his party, it was made by the Huang family elder, and the other party raised one leg high and stepped towards the threshold of the Yu family's main hall.
Such a sound of laughter undoubtedly made the Yu family feel even more angry and aggrieved.
But at this moment, the noisy sound of blowing and beating came closer, as if it were at the door.
In front of everyone's eyes, the Huang family, who were swaggering to go out, stopped their movements and stood still.
Led by the elder of the Huang family, he crossed the threshold with one foot and fixed himself in mid-air, and he couldn't land for a long time.
The rest of the Huang family members and others also kept their bodies stiff.
Such a scene surprised Yu Lie and the others, and many people's shouting and scolding stopped, they couldn't tell what these people from the Huang family were doing.
Someone couldn't help but mutter: "The surname is Huang, are you bumping into evil spirits and ghosts?" ”
Who knew that the next moment, a cold feeling suddenly poured in from outside the hall, making the people in the hall feel cold, as if they had fallen into an ice cave and hit a ghost.
But this cold feeling, after touching the rest of the hall, subsided in an instant, and deliberately avoided it.
Immediately after, the horn suona!
The sound of the blowing suddenly went up to another level, as if it exploded.
The Huang family, who were blocking the door in a daze, moved their bodies.
They retreated again and again, their movements were a little chaotic, as if they were being forced, straight backwards, not daring to slack off.
Soon, there were figures of people and horses who appeared outside the main hall of the Yu family, all of them were golden and bright, dazzling.
The first person is riding on a paper horse painted with gold paint, and its face is covered with strange rune tattoos, with a crown and a broad belt, and its appearance is stiff and not human-like.
Behind it, there are paper figures and paper horses arranged on both sides, wearing gold armor and gold helmets, wearing plaques and holding gold melon honor guards, prosperous and magnificent, as well as French music singing, sharp and piercing.
Every time the people took a step into the main hall of the Yu family, the people of the Huang family who were about to go out just now staggered back a step.
Among the Huang family and others, the Taoist elder not only did not look embarrassed and angry, but his face was tense, and he hurriedly waved his hand behind him, for fear that someone would not be long-sighted, and shouted:
"Ghosts and gods travel, go backwards, go back!"
This voice sounded, so that the rest of the people in the hall also reacted, and everyone stared at the group of people who walked in from outside the hall.
"Hidden Ghost God!?" "Oni-sama? ”
Yu Lie also raised his eyebrows slightly, he looked at the people and horses who came over, and pondered: "The face has deep lines, riding paper in the city, and the honor guard is sandwiched...... Sure enough, it is written in the Taoist book, a specification for ghosts and gods to appear and travel. ”
The patriarch of the Yu family also recognized it, and his face was stunned, and he didn't know why a ghost and god suddenly came down in his clan's land.
For a while, all kinds of thoughts were surging in this guy's mind, and even bad thoughts were born, a few drops of cold sweat oozed out, and he thought in horror:
"Bad comer!?"
Yu Lie also thought of this, and a look of surprise appeared on his face.
Yu Lie glanced at the Yu family patriarch next to him who was in a cold sweat, and he was also stunned:
"Could it be that there are evils in the clan who have committed something worthy of being removed from the family or even destroyed?"
The people in the hall seemed to have been poured cold water, and the people of the Yu family were all panicked.
This is really why everyone is not panicking, you must know what kind of existence are ghosts and gods? The lowest of his generation is also a seven-rank inferior Taoist official. And it is often not a trivial matter to be able to involve such an existence.
Among the many things, the most worthy of the ghosts and gods, and the most common thing for the ghosts and gods, is to arrest the criminals who have violated the law of the Tao and destroy their homes!
The people of the Huang family retreated stupidly, and they took more than ten steps back, before they suddenly came back to their senses, and shouted again from the old man of the Huang family: "All stupid, hurry up and retreat to both sides, don't get in the way." ”
The people of the Huang family scattered on both sides, no longer continuing to pestle on the central axis of the lobby, blocking the advance of the paper people and paper horses.
There are Huang Jiasu elders who opened the way and greeted them, and the Yu family members in the hall also dispersed, revealing a large and spacious road, and the face was confused.
The paper man and paper horse completely walked into the hall.
The blunt ghost and god led by him didn't look at the old man of the Huang family at all, nor did he look at any of the Yu family, it turned its head, and its eyes finally looked straight at Yu Lie, and he dismounted!
The rustling sound of the paper sounded, and after getting off the horse, the ghost's body flashed, and without waiting for everyone to react, the brush appeared in front of Yu Lie, making sure that it was looking for Yu Lie.
The distance was closer, and Yu Lie also saw the appearance of this ghost and god clearly.
He looked at it, his heart beat slightly, and suddenly he felt that the ghost in front of him, although the other party's face was covered with strange dark lines, still gave him a little familiarity.
At this time, the eyes of everyone in the hall were all focused on Yu Lie's body, and they had different thoughts and did not dare to speak.
Under a special majesty and oppression, many people who have no knowledge do not even dare to breathe.
