Chapter 53: The Sudden Eviction Order
At this time, several elders took it for granted that the illness of the second senior brother was the root of the illness left after a bloody battle with the enemy that year.
But he has been silent, not letting his juniors worry about it.
Gu Hongzi, who has a really cool personality, couldn't help but think: "No wonder the second senior brother insisted on leaving instead of being the helper, it turned out that he was terminally ill and didn't want to affect everyone." ”
After thinking about it like this, he felt guilty in his heart, and when he looked at Zhong Lifei again, there was a little more love and guilt in his eyes.
After the shock and grief, Gu Hongzi asked, "May I ask the virtuous nephew, when did the second senior brother pass away?" ”
"Three years ago."
Zhong Lifei sighed and said, "After taking care of the aftermath, I will go out on a long trip." Later, because of the entrustment of his old friend Xue Letian, he reluctantly accepted the position of the leader of the Xuanwu Gate. I wanted to take care of the affairs of the gang quietly, but my father's last words always echoed in my ears and I didn't dare to forget it, so I made a special trip to your gang to fulfill his last wish. ”
After hearing Master's words, Chu Fan was stunned.
In Xuanwumen, Zhong Lifei has repeatedly said in public that he is an orphan.
Now that he is lying in public, he is really more cunning than a fox to climb this level of intimacy with the Tianxian Gang.
Chu Fan couldn't help but praise in his heart: "High, it's really high!" Master played this hand and coaxed these old rivers and lakes around. ”
At this time, Xiao Xiangzi asked: "I don't know what the second senior brother had before he died, the virtuous nephew might as well reveal one or two, or if there are any difficulties in the family, just ask me to help!" ”
"It's not a secret, my father once calculated that the Tianxian Gang would be wiped out in seven years, so he took the jade pendant in advance to make a fool's plan."
Xiao Xiangzi exclaimed: "Now that my Tianxian Gang is as vigorous as the rising sun, what big things will happen?" ”
Gu Hongzi said disapprenousively: "Senior brother, I am too worried, the Tianxian Gang is strong, except for the Qingyoumen who doesn't know whether to live or die, which other small people dare to beat our idea." ”
Zhong Lifei said with a smile: "My father expected that my uncle would have this attitude, and he specially told me before his death, if everyone doesn't believe it, just say a word, and the older generation will naturally agree." ”
"What did he tell you?" Gu Hongzi asked hurriedly.
"Although the old seven-year plague has ended, the new seven-year period has arrived, and you must take precautions."
The elders were shocked and looked at each other.
The last time a traitor stole the jade pendant, although there was no turmoil in the gang, seven years later, the enemy invaded on a large scale, and the Tianxian Gang was almost destroyed.
When life and death are at stake, it is the second senior brother who shows his might to repel a strong enemy.
Without his heroic performance back then, it is unknown whether the Tianxian Gang exists in the world today.
Now that the new seven-year period has arrived, is it really as the second senior brother said, the Tianxian Gang is going to set off a bloody storm again?
Xiao Xiangzi had to force a smile and said, "Virtuous nephew, please rest assured, we have our own countermeasures." ”
Chenyangzi had been looking at Zhong Lifei, and then suddenly said, "Virtuous nephew, the old man has some words, I don't know if I should say it or not?" ”
As soon as he saw his expression, Zhongli Fei suddenly knew that the other party didn't fully trust him, so he said: "Uncle Shi has a straight word, and he knows everything in the next. ”
"The second senior brother was not married when he was in the gang, and it was less than thirty years since he ran away from the gang, and you are nearly forty years old, so it seems that the time is not right."
As soon as these words came out, everyone present was stunned, and said in their hearts: "The second senior brother didn't care about the personal affairs of his children before his death, why is there such a young son!" It's not too late to find out the truth first, so as not to deceive the traitors and make a big joke! ”
Zhong Lifei guessed that they would have such a question, and said calmly: "I don't know if the elders remember that forty years ago, my father took leave to return to his hometown?" ”
Chenyangzi nodded and said: "This is indeed the case, I felt strange at the time, the second senior brother only returned to the gang after half a year, it was obvious that something happened in the family, but he never explained the reason to us, maybe only the master knows." ”
Zhong Lifei said with a smile: "You don't know, my parents have been engaged to have a baby since they were young, and my father was ordered to return to his hometown to get married. ”
"Ah, that's the case?"
"The second senior brother is too uninteresting, don't talk about the big happy event with me!"
"yes, I'm afraid that we will go to the cave room and embarrass him!"
Several elders talked and sighed.
Chenyangzi didn't give up, and asked again: "You said that the relationship with the second senior brother is that of father and son, I don't know if you have the token certificate he gave you this time?" ”
Zhong Lifei replied: "Except for this jade pendant, my father has not left any other relics. ”
"In this way, it is difficult for the virtuous nephew to prove his identity?"
"Not necessarily."
The corners of Zhong Lifei's mouth raised, and he continued: "My father said some things about your uncles before his death, and now I might as well say a few things in public, and I hope you Haihan." ”
Next, he talked about the experiences of the king and his disciples when they were young.
Each of them is a secret matter, and almost no one knows about it except the person concerned.
Especially when talking about Chenyangzi, Zhong Lifei directly said that when he was a teenager, he liked to peek at women taking a bath, and was found to be severely punished by the master, and finally it was the second senior brother who begged hard to be exempted from punishment.
Everyone laughed when they heard this, Chen Yangzi's old face turned red, and he waved his hand again and again to ask Zhong Lifei not to reveal the old bottom again.
At this moment, everyone has no objections, believing that Zhong Lifei is Wang Quan's biological son.
The elders hurriedly invited the master and apprentice to sit down, and everyone immediately began to chat.
Zhong Lifei was about to raise his glass to drink tea, when suddenly his brows furrowed slightly.
Just because he saw that he was holding a high-quality jade teacup in his hand, and then looked at other tea sets, all of them were precious jade, and even the tea tray was a rare golden silk nanmu.
Soon, he discovered that although there were no cheesy gold and silver decorations and objects in Zhongyi Hall, it gave people a sense of grandeur everywhere.
The smooth and magnificent marble floor, paved with bright red brocade mats, looks very magnificent.
The furniture, including the tables and chairs, is a valuable antique.
The screen is made of red silkworm silk to pay tribute to the royal family, and the pearls of the night are strung on the bead curtain, like a shining waterfall.
All of them feel very luxurious, even too extravagant.
For a moment, the ivory comb that He Chengyu combed his hair and the real image of the Three Treasures sitting on the golden disc of the altar alternated in Zhong Lifei's mind.
He secretly said in his heart: "You are so rich, and you are insatiably robbing the poor people, and your appearance is too ugly, right?" ”
Zhong Lifei thought that he was going to embarrass a few elders a little.
However, before he could say a few words of ridicule, Xiao Xiangzi actually issued an eviction order.
I only heard Xiao Xiangzi say: "Before the virtuous nephew entered the door, I discussed with the two junior disciples, and I hope you can leave Qinning City as soon as possible, instead of delaying time with us." ”
Gu Hongzi also said apologetically: "The incident happened suddenly, I wanted to get together with my nephew, but now it is an eventful time, I hope you can understand." ”
"Huh?"
Zhong Lifei was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and immediately came back to his senses and glanced at his apprentice.
Chu Fan comprehended, and his face sank.
As soon as you got your hands on the holy relics, you were in a hurry to drive us away, and you changed your faces too quickly, right?
The touching and heartwarming scene just now, could it be that you performed it for everyone to see, shouldn't it be true?
He immediately snorted coldly and said, "This is the fine tradition of your Tianxian Gang, the usual hospitality? ”
Xiao Xiangzi hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Don't get me wrong, this is all for your good, and there is no other intention." ”
Chu Fan said coldly: "That's what I said, after the things are in hand, Master and I have no use value, and the Tianxian Gang can't recognize poor relatives like us." ”
These harsh words suddenly made several elders a little embarrassed.
