Chapter 13: Waiting for the Rabbit
Xia Longxing looked at Xia Hao.
"Hmm, could it be ......" Sensing that something was wrong, Xia Yuxue followed Xia Longxing's line of sight, and also looked at Xia Hao, with a trace of doubt and some disbelief in her eyes.
Xia Hao said: "Third uncle, I recently got an adventure, which involves some secrets, and I will tell you slowly when I have a chance in the future." ”
Xia Yuxue opened her mouth, looking stunned, and finally understood that all these changes were caused by Xia Hao.
"Good! good!"
Xia Yuxue said three "good" words in her mouth, and she was sincerely happy in her heart.
Feeling this warm atmosphere, Xia Hao sighed slightly in his heart.
In his previous life, he also rose from the end of the micro and became the emperor step by step. In this process, he witnessed too many relatives and friends with unwillingness and attachment, disappearing in the long river of time, which made Xia Hao also grieve for it, and it became a pain that he could not get rid of in his heart. And these griefs also prompted him to become stronger, and finally achieve the position of the emperor, see the cold inside story hidden behind this world, see through the hypocrisy of the Heavenly Dao, and resolutely choose to declare war on the sky.
Now, live again.
The grief and regret of his previous life, Xia Hao didn't want to experience it again.
His fate, and the people he guards, will never be enslaved by the Heavenly Dao again, and his own destiny must be in his own hands.
Xia Hao drank tea lightly, his eyes resolute.
Just when Xia Hao and the four of them gathered together, there were also people in another hall.
The candles flickered, and the atmosphere in the hall seemed a little dull and depressing.
"Didn't you say that Xia Longxing's injuries are getting worse and worse, and it is impossible to recover, why is it like this now?" The Great Elder's gloomy voice sounded in the hall, "Also, how could Xia Hao, that little bastard, suddenly awaken the martial spirit?
"I really don't know about this. Now, who doesn't know, I'm on the side of the Great Elder, how could Xia Longxing tell me these things?" In the hall, there was also a middle-aged man standing, wearing a brocade robe, with a slightly fat body, a pair of thin eyes, flashing with an uncertain light, as if people could never guess what was in his heart.
This middle-aged man is Xia Hao's uncle, Xia Yong.
"I'm not reconciled, I won't admit defeat like this, one day, I will recover my strength, trample on the soles of Xia Hao's little bastards, and return today's humiliation to him tenfold and hundredfold!" Xiao Qiang sat on the recliner, holding his palms wrapped in bandages, gritted his teeth, and said fiercely.
Not only his hands, but also his chest and abdomen were covered with bandages, his face was pale, and when he spoke, he couldn't help frowning again, and gasped in his mouth.
On the martial arts stage, he was really stepped on too hard by Xia Hao.
Today's Xiao Qiang, his dantian is damaged, and his realm cultivation is like a house that is about to collapse, crumbling, and he may fall to the bottom at any time.
Next to the recliner, a figure knelt and was serving Xiao Qiang.
It turned out to be Xia Qiong.
In the first battle of Wutai, from beginning to end, Xiao Qiang didn't take Xia Qiong in his eyes at all, but now, Xiao Qiang's own situation is worse than Xia Qiong, and the two have sympathy for each other and come together.
"Your strength will definitely be restored!" Xia Qiong wiped the sweat oozing from Xiao Qiang's forehead with a towel because of the pain, and said.
"Didn't let you speak. Xiao Qiang impatiently pushed Xia Qiong's hand away.
Xia Qiong pinched the towel and was silent.
"What are you going to do next?" Xia Yong asked the Great Elder.
Now, Xiao Qiang has been deposed, and more importantly, Xia Longxing's recovery from his injuries is no longer comparable to that of the Great Elder. The Great Elder's business in the clan will also collapse step by step with the recovery of Xia Longxing's strength, if there is no countermeasure, it will be the fate of destruction sooner or later to meet them.
Xia Yong was a little flustered, now, it is too late to change the court and become the real Xia family again, so he can only hope for the Great Elder, what countermeasures are still hidden.
The Great Elder's eyes sank, and he said, "Hmph, Xia Longxing thinks he has already won the battle?"
"My business is not limited to the clan, and the old man's vision is not so short-sighted. Now, the young city lord of Male Bird City has great ambitions and is recruiting talents, and over the years, I have already known the young city lord's staff, and this time, he has promised to introduce us and get the opportunity to meet the young city lord. I will use the greatest sincerity to win the trust of the young city lord. If the Young City Lord can support us, what is Xia Longxing? Moreover, the Young City Lord's Mansion is full of talents, there is no shortage of famous pharmacists, and Qiang'er's injuries also have hope of recovery. ”
The Great Elder had actually already established a relationship with the Young City Lord of City.
Qingyang Town is only one of the dozens of towns in the territory of City, and for the people of Qingyang Town, the young city lord of City is tantamount to a prince-like existence.
Although the Great Elder is only acquainted with his staff at present, he has already obtained the opportunity to meet the Young City Lord, according to the temperament of the Great Elder, I am afraid that this time, he will do everything he can, and even sell the Xia family, and do not hesitate to become the slave of the Young City Lord to gain support. If the young city lord really had to set his sights on the Xia family because of this, this would definitely not be a good thing for the Xia family.
"This trip to Cocksquetown is very important, and reliable people must be sent there. The Great Elder said with a deep groan, and then turned his gaze to Xia Yong.
"Me?" Xia Yong frowned slightly.
The Great Elder said: "Now, Xia Longxing has recovered from his injuries, who knows what he will do next, I must stay in the clan." Moreover, who is more suitable than you, on behalf of the Xia family, to express our greatest sincerity to the young city lord. This time, Qiang'er will also follow forward, if things go well, stay in City, heal the injury, you are ready, let's set off in the next two days. ”
"But......" Xia Yong hesitated.
This time, if he really had to lead the team to City, it would mean that he would completely betray the Xia family, and there would be no room for turning around.
The Great Elder said in a deep voice: "What are you hesitating about? Now, we are all people in the same boat, if this boat capsizes, even if Xia Longxing spares you and does not die, do you think that you will be able to live a better life in the future?"
"Okay. ”
Xia Yong made a choice.
Two days later.
The sky was dark, the morning sun had not yet risen, it was the darkest time before dawn.
A convoy drove out of the side gate of a certain manor of the Xia family and quietly left.
In the convoy, followed by a man in a strong robe, who was also loaded with heavy wooden boxes, and he didn't know how many gold and silver treasures were hidden, and quietly transported them out of Xia's house.
"Hao'er, you really guessed right, Xiao Wolf Yan, this old thing, is restless, looking like this, he wants to sell the Xia family and take refuge in Male Bird City. ”
Not far away, two figures stood on the roof, as if they had anticipated the appearance of this convoy, waiting for the rabbit.
These two people are Xia Yuxue and Xia Hao.
