Chapter 364: Chaos Worm
The old lady of the Zhang family really didn't expect that it was rare to have a promising junior, and as soon as she went home, she would come to refute her face. The atmosphere suddenly became gloomy.
This dignified atmosphere made those security personnel feel like pins and needles, they really didn't expect that the young master Zhang they offended would actually give their own people a head. This also upset the old lady. At this time, they really had mixed feelings in their hearts, and they thought about stepping forward to persuade a few words, but they really didn't have any position, let alone the courage, so they had to bow their heads in the distance and remain silent.
"Son, the first time you come home, do you really have to discuss these things at the door of your house?"
"I know it's not easy to make a living outside, so I want to plead for them, that's all."
Hearing this, the old lady sighed, changed her smile, and said to Zhang Yuanmei beside her
"Eldest sister, give them a month's salary and bonus, and continue to keep them."
After speaking, he pulled Zhang Qilu and walked towards the courtyard.
Only when you enter the courtyard can you know how much heritage this Huhai Zhang family has.
The courtyards of Huhai are somewhat different from those of Jiangnan gardens, northern gardens, and Lingnan gardens. Most of the buildings in Huhai were built in the past 100 years, and most of them are buildings that soften the Eastern and Western styles.
The main house in the middle is a Nordic Europa castle-style building covering an area of more than 5,000 square meters.
The main house is three stories high, with a steep roof and undulating roofs, and the roofs are all glazed tiles in the Chinese style. The whole building is uneven and varied, and it seems to be irregular from the outside, but if you look closely, there is a kind of incongruous beauty. The doors and windows are arched, the frame protrudes from the wall, and the windows are mostly colored glass. The two tall main towers of the main house resemble sword scabbards and have a strong Gothic style. There are also some small minarets on the building, which are beautifully shaped to echo the main tower. The façade of the building is ochre-red and made of refractory bricks, with some colored tiles embedded in the middle, which looks like a building in a fairy tale from a distance.
There are also a dozen or so small courtyards around the main house, and in each courtyard there are two or three small bungalows similar in style to the main house.
The garden, which combines Eastern and Western styles, is equally distinctive. The floor of the garden is paved with colourful tiles. The courtyard is planted with precious flowers and trees such as cypress, cedar, camphor, etc., and in the middle is a lawn where a bronze statue is placed, which should be the image of an ancestor of the Zhang family.
There is also a conservatory for cherry blossom viewing, a dog house, and a stable, all of which show the luxury and sophistication of a large family.
Li Xiaoxiao explained carefully to everyone along the way. The crowd finally arrived at the gate of the main house.
The gate is the style of the traditional Chinese mansion, next to the gate is placed a pair of guards of the door, Zhang Qilu looked at it slightly, good guys, this pair of adult-tall Fox material is actually some kind of jade, jade, inky black color, natural, soft, introverted faintly revealing a trace of treasure.
Entering the residence, the interior decoration is even more dizzying. The interior decoration is very exquisite, the corridors and corridors are carved with beautifully patterned wainscoting, and the interior dome is made of stained glass, which presents colorful and soft colors under the headlights outside the roof.
Everyone came to the dining room, and there were five tables for ten people in the dining room of Nuoda. Eight cold dishes, eight hot dishes, the ingredients are not expensive, but the dishes are rich, colorful, fragrant and flavorful.
Zhang Qilu was led to the main table, and Li Xiaoxiao, Mu Zishan and others were invited to another table.
Zhang Qilu noticed that because of their arrival, six Zhang family members silently withdrew from the restaurant, and there was no communication between them, everything seemed to be a conventional rule.
The whole dining process was very depressing, almost no one spoke, halfway through the meal, the old lady got up and was about to leave the table, Zhang Yuanmei helped the old lady to walk outside the restaurant.
"Come with us."
Zhang Qilu followed all the way to the old lady's room on the third floor, as soon as he entered the room, Zhang Qilu smelled a very high-quality aroma, he sniffed it shallowly, and also smelled a few other extremely valuable spices in this aromatherapy. Just sniffed a few times, Zhang Qilu felt a burst of relief all over his body, and the body and mind that had been tense these days were in vain
。
Zhang Qilu followed his mother and the old lady to a small secret room, and after a few people sat down and made tea, the old lady finally asked
"Tell me something, tell me something."
"Grandma, it's okay, it's just that there have been many events in Shanghai and Haihai recently, and all forces have gathered, and I'm a little worried, so I came over to take a look, but when I saw that your family has such a background, I was relieved, it seems that I am too worried about the kid."
Hearing this, the old lady finally showed a smile.
"What, your house, it's our house."
"Yes, our family is as good as a cloud, not comparable to that family."
At this moment, Zhang Qilu somewhat touched some of the veins of this eccentric old lady, and this old lady was obviously a smooth donkey.
"It's okay, Qilu, we are our own family, what do you need, just tell the old lady. Our Zhang family, in addition to self-protection, still has some spare energy. If you want money, or people, tell me."
"Actually, what I originally thought was that the Zhang family and the Xiang family were close to each other, so they could help each other to some extent, but I didn't want to enter the Xiang family, and some changes happened to their family......
Then Zhang Qilu told the old lady what he had encountered at Xiang's house before.
After listening to Zhang Qilu, the old lady said in a deep voice
"You're worried that the family will defect. We need to guard against them, don't we?"
"Judging from what the Scientology has done this time and the resources they have mobilized to Shanghai, they have a great plan this time, and their hearts will be strong, and it seems that this time they want to take a real action against Huaxia......
The old lady interrupted Zhang Qilu at this time.
"Having said all this, it seems that you came to Zhang's house this time to remind me that my ass should sit in the right place, right? Please rest assured, although we have had some business dealings with the West before, it was all for the purpose of making money, and I still know very well where our own roots are."
"Grandma, that's not what I meant. I just hope that the people in these places can support each other and take care of each other in case of trouble, and Qin Dao's residence is not far from Zhang's house......
"Okay, okay, Zhang Qilu, we can guard our own door, we don't need you to remind us, if it's okay, you can please, old lady, I'm tired."
At this time, Zhang Qilu deeply realized why Zhang Nian'er was unwilling to stay at home, this old lady was too sensitive, and her personality was fickle, and no one was allowed to disobey her, it seemed that the previous concessions were already very rare.
When Zhang Qilu and his party came, the Zhang family came out to greet them, and when they left, they were obviously much more desolate, and even their mother Zhang Yuanmei didn't send them off.
"Little nephew, my sister asked me to tell you, and the old lady listened to what you said, so you don't have to worry. She also said......
"What else did she say?"
"Didn't say anything. Say that the old lady is hard-mouthed and soft-hearted, so don't mind, and don't go home if you have nothing to do in the future, there are few people here who want to see you."
"That's it? Gone?"
"And she also said that the more prosperous you live outside, the more comfortable she will live in the Zhang family."
Hearing this, Zhang Qilu secretly smiled bitterly, and his concern for the sophistication of people in this world faded a little.
As they spoke, several people came to the door of the house, and the security personnel who had stopped them before were now courteous and flattering, not only helping them drive the car to the gate, but even washing the car on Zhang Qilu clean.
At this moment, Li Xiaoxiao, Ah Lu and Yang Qianji's mobile phones rang at the same time.
......
The first person who received the call before Li Xiaoxiao was Ah Fu beside Qin Dao.
At this moment, Qin Dao finished the dinner, arranged the guests, and took the most elite subordinates, a convoy of more than a dozen vehicles, and was heading to the south of the Shanghai Sea.
"Have you been in touch with Alu?"
"It's connected, Young Master Qilu and Miss Xiaoxiao and Young Master Mu are together. They are now rushing to that place."
"What they say."
"They are worried that they are moving the tiger away from the mountain, and they are not going to call more people over."
"As it should be. Tell me what's going on right now."
"A lot of people are dying these days."
"I know that nearly 4,000 people died."
"The bodies are gone."
"How is this possible, someone stole it?"
"It would be nice if someone stole it, but if that was the case, they wouldn't necessarily ask us for help. There is nothing strange about those corpses."
"What?" At this moment, Qin Dao finally knew the seriousness of the matter.
"The Special Committee of the Chinese People's Republic of China hid the corpses of those thousands of cultivators in several secret cold stores in Shanghai, which were not only secret, but also surrounded by ambushes in order to ambush people who might covet these corpses."
"The people who lay in ambush are dead."
"Yes, die silently."
"That's not right, thousands of corpses, it will take some work to get them away." Gan Baihua, who was driving, couldn't help but ask at this time
"Ten minutes, ten minutes after the loss of contact, the nearest vigilante arrived there, but the bodies were all gone." Look at the book
"Disappear?"
"Yes, their original words are to disappear."
"Could it be Xiangxi's means of driving away corpses?"
"Probably not, it's not so simple to refine corpses, the time is too short, and there are so many corpses."
"Corpse Gu."
"I don't know, but there are experts on the side of the Special Committee of the People's Republic of China, and they seem to rule out this possibility."
"Is that the case in several places?"
"The place we're going to now still has more than five hundred corpses of cultivators."
"Hundred flowers, go to the front, speed up."
"Yes, boss."
......
"Xiaoxiao, did you come with us and tell the old lady?"
"What are you talking about, I'm not going to ask for the rags of their Zhang family, why should I ignore them."
"You know, what are we doing here?"
"Can you do it, it's nothing more than fighting."
The most helpless thing about Zhang Qilu in this world is this aunt on the face, the actual sister, he doesn't say anything anymore, he can only let her follow.
At this time, Li Xiaoxiao finally hung up the phone, and seeing her solemn face, Zhang Qilu asked
"What's the matter, smile, what the hell is going on. Isn't it just that the body is lost? I reminded the Special Committee of the People's Republic of China, but I didn't expect them to pay attention to it."
"Brother Qi, they attach great importance to it, things are a little strange, those corpses seem to have gone by themselves."
"What! What do you mean?"
"I think it may be that the things we encountered in the universe country appeared in Shanghai."
"You mean, Chaos Worm."
