In the fourth chapter, the Xiao family has changed
Three days later, the Xiaojia meeting hall. A small amount of green smoke wafted from the incense burner in the middle of the hall.
Xiao Xing sat in the hall with a solemn expression, and Great Elder Xiao Zheng's face was full of worry. The second elder, Xiao Qin's eyes, rolled around, looking a little anxious, while the rest of the elders had their own thoughts.
Xiao Xing pondered for a moment and said in a deep voice, "Elders, I'm sure you all know what happened three days ago. After speaking, he looked at the elders with a gloomy face.
The Great Elder nodded slightly and said, "Well, I heard that the Patriarch rescued Miss Tianyi and Young Master Luochuan who were attacked three days ago. But I don't know much about the specific situation under the strict orders of the patriarch. ”
Xiao Qin surprisingly didn't answer, Xiao Xing looked at Xiao Qin with some doubts, and took the initiative to ask, "Elder Xiao Qin doesn't know about this?"
Xiao Qin looked at him with a smile on his face and said with a smile: "Even if it is a matter that the patriarch strictly ordered to discuss, how do I know." ”
"Well, Elder Xiao Qin doesn't know, then I'll tell you about it......" After speaking, there was anger and confusion on everyone's faces.
After listening to the story, Xiao Zheng slapped the table next to him and said angrily, "It's really a big dog's guts, and it actually moved my Xiao family." I just don't know if the patriarch has some eyebrows?"
Xiao Qin also asked with concern, "Yes, patriarch, do you have eyebrows on this matter?"
Xiao Xing shook his head and said, "I don't know yet." ”
Xiao Zheng dragged his chin and pondered for a moment and said, "Didn't you leave some clues?" Now the most important person in Wave City is the Han family, and in my opinion, you can start with this aspect." ”
The corners of Xiao Qin's mouth curled slightly, and then he said, "Yes, my Xiao family has a person with a heavenly spirit root, and the one who wants Luo Chuan's life the most is the Han family." ”
After listening to Xiao Qin's words, Xiao Xing looked at Xiao Qin with a solemn expression.
"Elder Xiao Qin, when did I say that the thieves were coming for Luochuan?"
Xiao Zheng slapped the table when he heard this, pointed at Xiao Qin and said suspiciously, "That's right, the patriarch never mentioned that the thief had said that it was for Luo Chuan, and the most seriously injured was Tianyi." Elder Xiao Qin didn't collude with outsiders to attack his own people, right?"
Xiao Qin replied with an indifferent face, "Elder Xiaozheng is really 'smart', you use your head to think about it, Luo Chuan has just determined that he has a Heavenly Spirit Root, and someone will assassinate him." It's not to strangle geniuses, is it really to kill a Xiao family's daughter?"
Xiao Xing looked at the expression on Xiao Qin's face, of course he knew that what Xiao Qin said was not unreasonable, and the reason why he said this was nothing more than to see Xiao Qin's expression, hoping to see if there was any collusion with outsiders.
After all, the Xiao family is most likely to compete with themselves for the position of the head of the family, and it is Xiao Qin in front of him.
Luo Chuan went out that day, and no one seemed to know except Xiao Tianyi, but when Xiao Tianyi went out less than half an hour, this happened. I have to suspect that there is someone inside the Xiao family who has reported the news.
Xiao Qin suddenly laughed and said, "Hahahahaha, the two elders don't have to be like this, I was just talking just now, how could my Xiao family be so rebellious." ”
Xiao Zheng smiled knowingly and said, "Patriarch, I'm just joking with Elder Xiao Qin, Elder Xiao Qin don't be angry." ”
Of course, Xiao Zheng knew Xiao Xing's intentions, he was just pushing the boat down the river.
Xiao Qin rolled his eyes and sneered, "Of course I know that Patriarch and Elder Xiao Zheng are joking, how could you two do such a stupid thing?"
Xiao Zheng and Xiao Qin smiled awkwardly, this matter is over, these three people have become fine characters, and the three of them know it.
Xiao Xing suddenly smiled and said, "I don't have to mess with myself, although I wanted to kill all the people when I rushed there, but I spared the life of their leader, but I abolished him, and did not kill him." ”
After speaking, Xiao Xing looked at the people present with a smile, Xiao Zheng laughed and said, "It is worthy of being the patriarch, even in this situation, he can endure his anger, and he has not killed them all." ”
The corners of Xiao Qin's eyes on his originally calm and smiling face twitched slightly, although it was not obvious, but how could he hide Xiao Xing's eyes.
The corners of Xiao Xing's mouth curled slightly, and he smiled, "His injuries have basically stabilized in the past few days, and today he is in this hall, interrogating in front of everyone, what do you think?"
Xiao Qin's hand clenched unnaturally, but he said with surprise on his face, "Since the patriarch has this hand, why didn't he call him up earlier for interrogation?" ”
Xiao Xing nodded and smiled, "In that case, then I will be escorted up for interrogation." Then he called to the guard at the door, "Come, bring the thief up." ”
A short time later, two guards escorted a tall, thin man with a frail figure into the hall.
Xiao Xing looked majestic and asked, "Who is down there?"
The weak man slowly raised his head and looked at Xiao Xing, and said with despair in his eyes, "Does it matter who is down there? Since you want to kill and listen to this road, you don't know anything else." ”
Xiao Xing smiled weirdly and said, "Kill you, do you think that falling into my hands can still make you die happily? My Xiao family has a way to make your life worse than death, hehe~ If Your Excellency is interested, I will give you a good time, otherwise, let you taste the power of my Xiao family's interrogation?"
The people under the hall are usually people who lick blood from the knife, how could they meet Xiao Xing, the three major families in Wave City, which one does not have a set of special means to deal with these outlaws, Xiao Xinggen is not worried about him.
Sure enough, when the weak man heard this, his originally weak body seemed to give up the last resistance. looked at Xiao Xing weakly.
"I said, but begged Patriarch Xiao to give me a good time after I said it. ”
Xiao Xing nodded in agreement.
The man in the hall lowered his head and said, "My name is Wu Hu, I am alone, I was originally in the mercenary group of the Han family, and I lived a life of licking blood from the knife edge, I thought that this was the end of my life, but I didn't think about it..."
Before he finished speaking, Xiao Qin suddenly got up and asked, "Even if you are a mercenary of the Han family, then this matter must have been instructed by the Han family, it seems that there is no need to try it, this matter has finally come to light, you don't have to stay in the world." ”
After saying that, he swept away the exercises in his hand, and wanted to kill this person.
Xiao Zheng seemed to have been prepared, and he pinched the law with his hand, only to see a golden light on the weak man's chest, and a light shield swept away the flying horses, but smashed the table and chair next to him.
Seeing this, Xiao Qin said angrily, "Xiaozheng, what are you doing, why did you stop me from killing this person, since the words have been asked, you should avenge Tianyi, why bother to leave trouble." ”
Xiao Zheng was not angry when he heard this, and said calmly, "When did this person say that it was the Han family's instructions?" Elder Xiao Qin was in such a hurry to kill this person, I am afraid that he was not in a hurry to take revenge - but, he had other plans. ”
Xiao Qin snorted coldly: "I'm just holding on to Tianyi's grievances." ”
Xiao Xing looked at everything in front of him and said indifferently, "Okay, don't argue, you go on." After speaking, he looked at Wu Hudao, who was afraid.
Wu Hu glared angrily at Xiao Qin and said, "The following words were originally my guesses, but I didn't expect that some people couldn't wait to kill me." ”
Xiao Qin glared angrily and shouted, "Thief, you still want to sow discord before you die." As he spoke, he was about to make a move again, and Xiao Zheng's figure turned in front of Xiao Qin.
"Elder Xiao Qin, don't be angry, whether the thief provokes his own patriarch to decide. ”
Wu Hu sneered and said, "The person who entrusted me at that time came in front of him and used a special technique to cover up his breath.
I didn't want to take on the task, but the other party is a master of the realm of living beings, if I don't take the task, he will kill me directly, and at least there will be a rich reward. ”
"The most important thing is that this person is afraid that my cultivation method is too inferior and I will not be able to complete the task, so he specially gave me a secret weapon. I'm afraid this person would never have thought that the killer move he used to seal with the spirit bead would become his talisman today. ”
After speaking, he looked at Xiao Xing with a crazy face and said, "Patriarch Xiao, I couldn't confirm who the person who instructed me was, but although the level of the exercises I practiced was inferior, in order to hunt all kinds of spirit beasts and monsters, I was the most sensitive to the perception of breath. Elder Xiao Qin's aura attacking me just now, although it is different from the aura of the spirit bead, I can conclude that he deliberately disguised it in order to cover up, and the two moves were made by the same person. ”
When Xiao Qin heard this, he looked crazy and pointed at Wu Hu, "Thief, you are a thief, you are trying to split my Xiao family, you are looking for death~" As he spoke, he was about to rush over.
Xiao Xing was about to stop it, but unexpectedly, the spiritual power around him was stagnant, and he couldn't use a single move at all.
I secretly screamed in my heart, looked at everyone in the hall, and saw that Xiao Zheng was knocked away by Xiao Qin's palm, and he didn't know whether he was dead or dead when he hit the pillar.
Xiao Qin said with an indifferent face, "Xiao Xing, you forced me, I wanted to keep you for a while, but if you want to find death, it's no wonder that I do it."
With Xiao Qin's order, the three elders sitting on Xiao Qin's side got up and jumped, and immediately subdued the two elders on Xiao Zheng's side, and the two elders said with angry faces, "Xiao Qin, do you want to rebel?"
Xiao Qin sat down slowly, picked up the teacup on the table, took a leisurely sip, straightened his clothes, looked at the two elders and said, "I still have some use for you, as long as you voluntarily accept my prohibition today, you will still be a high-ranking and powerful elder of the Xiao family in the future." ”
After speaking, he looked at the two elders, and the two elders sighed and said, "Hey~ The green mountains left behind are here, we can accept your ban, but can we ensure that my wife and children are safe?" After speaking, he looked at Xiao Xing, who was paralyzed in the hall, with a guilty face.
Xiao Xing used all his strength to smile at the corner of his mouth and nodded slightly.
Xiao Xing didn't blame the two, and the two lowered their heads in humiliation when they saw this.
Xiao Qin smiled and said, "Those who know the times are Junjie, since the two of you accept it, then you will not be embarrassed by your family." As he spoke, he got up and walked over to the two elders, pinching his hands and placing a ban.
After forbidding it, Xiao Qin handed the two of them two pills, and the two of them took it knowingly, and it didn't take long for them to return to normal.
Xiao Qin walked to Xiao Xing's side, looked at Xiao Xing proudly, put his head in Xiao Qin's ear and said, "Do you want to know why you can't do your exercises? Let me tell you, the key point is the incense burner in the hall, which has always been taken care of by subordinates, how can you pay attention to it."
But what you don't know is that the subordinate is my person, just in case, today I asked him to add the horn of the spirit devouring beast to the incense burner, this thing is usually not toxic to incense burning, and even helps calm the nerves.
The problem is in the move I attacked Wu Hu just now, you must not have thought that I, who is usually calm, why would I hurt people with my ungraceful hands today, do you think I just want to kill my mouth? I added the powder of the Spirit Devouring Worm to that move, the Spirit Devouring Beast and the Spirit Devouring Insect are natural enemies, and its powder just happens to stimulate the Spirit Devouring Beast's horn to devour the Spirit Devouring Beast.
So your spiritual power has long been solidified and you have lost your spirituality. After that, he turned around and left.
Xiao Xing said with difficulty: "Swallowing spirit beasts, how cherished." How could that thing be in your hands?"
Xiao Qin didn't reply, "You already know what you should know, and leave the rest to Jiuyou to ask Yan Jun." ”
As he spoke, he walked out of the hall, looked at the two elders and said, "Xiao Xing and Xiao Zheng are worthless, I don't want to see them, you can deal with them." ”
The two elders turned to look at Xiao Xing, and said with a smile on their faces: "I'm sorry, patriarch, we have written down this feeling." ”
Half a month later, it was already the coldest winter, and the snowflakes scattered in the sky were no longer as beautiful as before, but looked a little sharp, as if they were about to pierce flesh.
Wave City has not become quiet because of winter, and the occasional screams from the streets and alleys are extra insightful.
Xiao Qin cleaned the remnants of Xiao Zheng and Xiao Xing, and Xiao Luochuan, who was grounded half a month ago, was staring blankly at the snow, and his little hands that were red from the cold then Xuehua muttered, "It's so cold"
Seeing this, the maid hurriedly wrapped a coat around Xiao Luochuan and squatted down to hug him.
"Little master, it's cold outside, shall we go in?"
Xiao Luochuan looked at the maid and said
"Isn't it just as cold inside?"
The maid immediately said, "Little master, there is a stove inside, it's not cold." Let's go inside. As he spoke, he took Xiao Luochuan's hand and entered the room.
Not long after, there was such a conversation in the room.
"Dongmei, why didn't my aunt come to see me?"
"The slave maid is just a subordinate, and I don't know much, but I heard that Miss Tianyi has also been grounded, and she may not be able to come. ”
"Did my aunt make the same mistake as Luo Chuan?"
"Miss Tianyi and the little master are right, it's just ......"
