Chapter Eighty-Five: A tacit agreement was reached
After bathing in the mountain spring, Huo Xu changed into a new shirt and pants. He took the brocade robe and the coffee-colored robe and looked at it, and then burned them to the ground.
Pick one of the three sets of Yuanshi black robes in the spirit of the object and change it at random, comb your hair, polish the leather boots on your feet, Huo Xu neatly and neatly saw Fengqiu, and the two took a shortcut and went straight to Miyagi, and then transferred to the Yuan Shaoyuan of the Five Clans.
At the beginning of the day, they arrived at the shore of Weiming Lake.
Feng Qiu flashed into the willow forest and waited incognito, and Huo Xu walked alone to the Yuan Shaoyuan Square.
coincided with the break in the cultural class, including the boys and girls of the Tie family and the Mu family, more than 200 Yuan Shao caught a glimpse of the familiar face on the road, was stunned for a moment, and then hula lala surrounded him.
Screams rang out one after another.
"Huoxu!"
"So handsome!"
"What a spirit!"
"I'm so envious!"
Yunxi, mountains and seas, bamboo noise, wood fang, iron core lotus or fly or vertical, one after another swept up the Yuanjing platform, high eyes to welcome the return of Huoxu.
The six boys and girls of the Shui clan were closest to Huo Xu, and they vied with each other to caress the well-fitting black robe and the bright and dazzling four red bars on the chest of the robe.
"It's really a fourth-stage Yuanshi, good girl!" The waterbird exclaimed excitedly.
The six Shui clan young people were both happy and envious.
The corners of his lips curved into a shallow smile arc, Huo Xu took the trouble to greet the boys and girls one by one, and when his eyes touched the smiling faces of the two girls, Feng Pei and Feng Chime, he was slightly stunned.
The delicate figure of the wind instantly came to his mind.
Separated for a month, but it seems like a lifetime has passed!
In this January, time seems to be full of thick rust spots, ruthlessly annihilating that unforgettable green and spondile years.
He and she now belong to two worlds that do not communicate with each other, and are destined to usher in their own bloody lives.
I don't know if there is still a moment when two people's lives meet in the vast world······
Retracting Yuanyang's thoughts, his gaze swept over the six people of Feng Pei, Feng Chime, and Shui Clan, Huo Xu asked, "You haven't been bullied recently, have you?" ”
Eight people shook their heads one after another.
A month ago, the two shocking battles that took place in the Nangong Youth Arena had a huge deterrent to several overlord-level Yuan Shao in the courtyard.
Huo Xu, who has always liked to stand up for the Huo, Shui, and Feng clans, can beat a second-stage Yuanshi half to death on the spot, and teach a few ninth-level and eighth-level Yuanshao a lesson, which is not a piece of cake!
Twenty days ago, the news that Huo Xu had been promoted to the fourth stage of the Yuan Shi in the Royal Martial Arts Mansion had already spread throughout the Five Clans Alliance, so those thorny Yuan Shao of the Tie Clan and the Mu Clan had learned to restrain themselves more and more.
Huo Xu looked forward and fished out the figures of Tieshan and Mu Sen from the willow forest outside the crowd.
The boat of friendship between the two capsized, standing far away from each other, without any eye contact between them.
However, they all glanced up at Huo Xu from time to time, and constantly signaled with their eyes, conveying their strong willingness to meet Huo Xu with a smile and a grudge.
Huo Xu is not a person with a small belly, he has always adhered to the creed of "whoever owes debts will pay back", and seeking revenge will never harm women and children, and he has no intention of venting his anger with Latte Mountain and Mu Sen.
However, he didn't have the heart to deal with those two people who liked to bully the soft and fear the hard.
Looking away, he looked at his cousins beside him.
Under the leadership of Huo Fu, the Yuan Shao of the Huo Clan greeted his cousin with a halo on his head with a smile.
"Where are you hiding these days?" Huofu also said with joy and disgust.
At this moment, the long-legged tall sister has completely lost her former petty temperament, and she is really proud of this distant cousin with infinite beauty.
"Huofu, I have something to look for you, and ······ The young people of the Huo clan had to take a leave of absence and go back to the clan. Huo Xu whispered a little seriously.
With a smile, Huo Fu said in a daze: "What's the big deal, I have to let the young people in the clan collectively take leave?" Even when she was talking to her cousin who had been absent for a long time, her sight was sometimes drawn away by the tall figure of Tie Shan in the distance.
Seeing Huo Fu's single-minded appearance, Huo Xu sighed secretly and raised his head to look at Yuanjingtai.
On the Yuanjing platform, Yunxi, Shanhai, and Zhuhuo stood together, smiling and nodding towards Huoxu.
"Who would have thought that the waste boy in the past, in a blink of an eye, was radiant, the fourth stage of the Yuanshi, this achievement directly turned our strength at the same age into scum in seconds.
The possibilities for his future are endless! "Zhu Huo has a deep feeling.
Yun Xi smiled: "No matter how powerful he is, he is also my Yun Xi's subordinate student!" While secretly proud, there was also a little loneliness in my heart.
The Royal Martial Arts Mansion, which is full of talents and fierce competition, swept Yunxi, Shanhai, and Zhuhuo out of the house back then, and did not think of the old feelings at all.
And in Yunxi's sad place, Huo Xu can be in the limelight.
The deacon, who was quite high-sighted and resolute and ruthless, actually had a blue eye for Huo Xu, a newcomer, and personally gave him a robe, a sword, and a certificate.
The vastly different life circumstances are reflected very clearly from Gu Lin Haoshu's completely different attitudes towards the two······
Mu Fang smiled and waved at Huo Xu.
Tie Xinlian barely put out a smiling face.
There was no Fengling and Huo Twist on the stage.
Seeing the expressions of the five teachers clearly, Huo Xu turned to face Yuan Jingtai and saluted: "Teachers, the Huo Clan students have something to discuss with me collectively, and they must ask for a day off, and Huo Xu takes the liberty to take leave on their behalf." ”
In the past, don't talk about Huo Xu, it's the acting patriarch Huo Jing who asked for leave with an old face, and don't expect Yun Xi to nod easily.
The style of painting at this time is a little different.
Yun Xi grinned and said cheerfully: "Leave!" ”
······
"The Tie clan will take away all the clothes shops of the Huo clan, and order the Huo clan's Yuan Shao and Yuan Zhi to drop out of school collectively, and Huo Jing ······ Promised. ”
Standing on the shore of Weiming Lake, Huo Xu called Huo Jing's name, and his tone was more chilling than the cold wind on the lake.
Wide-eyed for a moment, Huofu didn't know how to respond.
She has always been reluctant to think about the bad things in the clan, but in the end, being an ostrich will not help, and she will eventually have to face the coming of the fire clan's limit.
"Don't think of Huo Jing as a generation patriarch, you must start anew, from today on, you are the patriarch-designate!" Huo Xu said flatly.
"What?!" Huo Fu said with no resistance: "I know that you don't look down on small titles such as alliance leader and patriarch at all, but I also have my obsessions, except for concentrating on cultivation, I have no distractions!" ”
"The situation is pressing, you have no choice!" Huo Xu said in a deep voice: "My future will be full of blood, so I give up the right to succeed, not because I am greedy for a lack of office, but because I don't want to bring disaster to the family."
The fifth brother is too soft to afford big things. At this time, if you don't stand up, the Fire Clan will be doomed! ”
Huo Fu was reluctant in her heart, and she struggled for a long time, and suddenly remembered Huo Jue, who had died, and she instantly burst into tears and sighed:
"If Brother Huo Jue is still alive, how good it would be!"
With a frown, she said thoughtfully: "After so long, why don't you still see the clansmen welcoming back the body of Brother Huojue and putting it in the ground?" ”
Glancing at the eleven cousins waiting in the distance, Huo Xu shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Huo Jing doesn't mention this matter, except for you and me, I'm afraid that no one in the clan will know that the eldest brother has been killed."
However, don't worry, I have already asked Du Zhengji to bury him on his behalf, and Counselor Rose has always been trustworthy, and she is expected to break her word. ”
"Then you should also go to the grave of the eldest brother to pay respects!" Firefreton Foot.
"What sacrifice? I just killed Iron Eagle, but that's not enough. Huo Xu lowered his voice and said: "When the eldest brother came out, he had been successfully promoted to the Heavenly Saint powerhouse, just imagine, if there is no powerful character to control the field, with only two Yuan Shi of the Tie Clan, can he kill a one-star Yuan Master?" ”
"You killed Iron Eagle!" Huofu screamed in surprise, and immediately realized that she might leak the news of the murder by screaming like this, so she leaned forward and whispered:
"You mean, the murderers of the eldest brother are other than Iron Eagle and Iron Owl, and there are others? Who! ”
Huo Xu shook his head, "Counselor Rose didn't say it, and I didn't ask. It only makes sense to inquire when we are strong enough, otherwise, even if we know about the other murderers now, what can we do? ”
After a pause, Huo Xu gritted his teeth and said, "Think about it again, what a secret event the eldest brother's entry into the mountain retreat is, how can outsiders know his whereabouts?"
Besides, as the owner of the North Fang, the eldest brother goes out to retreat for a few days, so he doesn't need to ask someone in the clan for leave? ”
"You mean Huo Jing ······" Huofu covered her mouth, and then, she didn't want to say anything, and in her bright eyes, two clusters of anger continued to burn.
The Huo Clan, a prominent clan that was once glorious in the capital, the leader of the five clans, in just ten years, if there are no thieves who eat inside and outside, how can they fall to this point?
Tie's taking away the garment industry is equivalent to uprooting Huo's thousand-year-old foundation.
Forcing the Huo Clan's Yuan Shao and Yuan Zhi to drop out of school is tantamount to completely destroying the Huo Clan's future.
A clan with no foundation and no future in sight has been reduced to a slave camp-like group attached to the Iron Clan, whose descendants are not only ashamed of their ancestors, but also have no shame to be on a par with the four clans of Iron, Wood, Water, and Wind.
And Huo Jing is the thief and culprit who brought the nightmarish fate to the family and brought endless shame to the descendants of the Huo family!
At this moment, Huo Fu only had resentment in his heart.
"Do you want to kill Huo Jingqi!" There were no more tears in his eyes, no more Qi on his face, and Huo Fu's tone was cold and resolute.
"No, no matter how legitimate the reason is, you and I can't kill him, otherwise, my nephew and uncle will set this precedent and cause endless trouble." Huo Xu said calmly:
"We won't kill him, but we won't save him, so let him fend for himself, hmph, Huo Jing will eventually die at the hands of the people he is trying to stammer, and he will die a very miserable death."
Packing up her mood, Huo Fu calmed down completely and said softly, "What should I do?" ”
"Win hearts and minds!" Huo Xu blurted out these four words, and immediately took out an official letter and two silver talismans, stuffed them into his cousin's hand, and instructed: "The official letter issued by the Zongren Mansion is of great significance for the Huo family to get rid of the predicament of the clothing shop business as soon as possible.
Two silver talismans, one hundred thousand silver coins, and one fifty million silver coins, this money can be used for emergencies.
Don't do anything that offends people, I'll do it, you just need to think clearly, with an official letter and more than 50 million silver coins, what kind of hope can be brought to the clansmen. ”
Putting away the silver talisman, Huo Fu hurriedly read the contents of the official letter, and suddenly felt moved: this distant cousin, who was only a few months older than her and used to be greeted by her white eyes, has been seeking revenge and accumulating wealth recently, and he silently bears almost all the heavy responsibilities of the family.
It's just ······
"Cousin, the life of the clan is not easy at the moment, and they have to spend money everywhere, more than 50 million silver coins······ Is it enough? She said softly.
Hearing Huo Fu personally call him cousin, Huo Xu was a little flattered and said with a smile: "Don't worry, cousin, it won't be long before I will hand over a huge fortune to you." ”
