Chapter 218: The Storm Suddenly Changes

It was already obvious that Xiao Wuzhong not only took refuge in the Mengyuan court, but also took the lead in transporting ten bronze cannons to the hands of Wang Dasheng of Bianliang City. Although according to the previous plan, Xiao Bo and the others should not have taken the initiative to mix in the matter between Xiao Wuzhong and the Mengyuan court, but now it seems that Xiao Wuzhong has completed the first step of the conspiracy, if all the copper cannons are transported to Bianliang, then it is probably not only Xiaojia Villa who will suffer at that time......

You can't sit still, but there's no good way. The most important thing is that there is not much time left for the people of Xiaojia Villa to think, and tomorrow when the villa worships the day, Xiao Wuzhong will send someone to transport the remaining copper cannons to Bianliang. Even if Xiao Wuzhong returns to Xiaojia Villa tomorrow, Xiao Wuzhong already has a close relationship with the Mengyuan Imperial Court after all, and the Xiao family does not dare to do anything to Xiao Wuzhong.

Xiao Tian was still holding the paper in his hand, and he was a little anxious in his heart, and continued: "Now that Xiao Wuzhong has taken a step ahead, now we ...... What should I do?" Xiao Tian asked, a little confused.

Xiao Bo thought for a moment, and then said, "Anyway, let's put the scroll back first, and report this matter to the master first......"

"But tomorrow is the day of worship, and at that time Xiao Wuzhong has already sent someone to transport the bronze cannon to the city of Bianliang-" Xiao Tian turned around and said, "The matter has reached the point where there is no time to delay, even if we go back to sue Master now, there is no time to think about countermeasures to deal with Xiao Wuzhong-"

"Then what else can I do now, do you want to expose Xiao Wuzhong's collusion with the Mengyuan Imperial Court in person, and then make a hasty understanding here?" Xiao Bo responded to Xiao Tiandao.

Xiao Tian lowered his head and thought. Didn't say anything for the time being.

"In short, we can't make a big deal now, so let's not make Xiao Wuzhong suspicious. Wait until you return to Xiaojia Villa. I'm sure Master, he'll have a way to solve it. Xiao Bo continued.

Xiao Tian thought about it for a long time, and felt that what Xiao Bo said was indeed reasonable, so he nodded and agreed first. Immediately, Xiao Tian put the scroll back in its original groove, and then looked around for the mechanism to reclose the Dark Pavilion.

At this moment, there were footsteps outside the door again, and there was also the sound of talking-it was Xiao Wuzhong back.

And this time. Although the door of the main hall was closed, Xiao Tian had not yet found the mechanism to re-close the secret pavilion of the secret passage.

"Ah Tian, hurry up. Xiao Wuzhong, he's back......" Xiao Qi shouted softly at Xiao Tian, signaling him to hurry up and close the mechanism.

Xiao Tian, who was originally very familiar with the way of the mechanism, would have found the location of the mechanism quickly if he had changed his usual life, but he was extremely nervous at this time. I didn't find any way for half a day.

"Hurry up. Ah Tian ......" Xiao Zhu also reminded softly on the side.

Xiao Wuzhong's footsteps were getting closer and closer to the main hall, and the sweat on Xiao Tian's head was gradually coming out. After knocking on the wall for a while, Xiao Tian seemed to have finally touched some mechanism, and sure enough, after a while, there was a sound of "creaking" from the corner of the cabinet.

However, the bookcase still didn't move for a long time, and because of impatience, Xiao Tian simply kicked directly at the corner of the cabinet. This one really worked, and the corner of the cabinet was kicked by this one. The entire bookcase finally turned, before Xiao Wuzhong entered the house. A qiē was restored to the original state.

Almost instantly, Xiao Wuzhong pushed open the door of the main hall. Xiao Tian successfully closed the mechanism of the secret passage, and the people present could be regarded as having a hanging heart to let go.

Looking at Xiao Wuzhong again, there is an extra piece of cloth decorated with chic white clothes on his hand. That is the token of Xiaojia Villa "Bai Ling Fengjin", and it is also a token that must be used on the worship day of Xiaojia Villa.

After Xiao Wuzhong walked into the house, he glanced at everyone present, and then said in a tentative tone: "I'm really sorry, I left my junior brothers and sisters in the house, I didn't even prepare tea, you didn't do anything else in the house just now, right?"

Xiao Bo heard something Xiao Wuzhong meant, and in order not to arouse suspicion, Xiao Bo smiled and said, "In Senior Brother Wuzhong's house, what else can we, junior brothers and sisters, do? Of course, we are waiting for Senior Brother Wuzhong to take the 'White Spirit Fengjin', after all, this is what Master has always told us. ”

"The token in the gang 'Bai Ling Fengjin' is here-" Xiao Wuzhong took the "Bai Ling Fengjin" in his hand, and then made a gesture to return it, handed the "Bai Ling Fengjin" to Xiao Bo, and then said, "My father was the head of Xiao Family Villa before his death, and after my father passed away, 'Bai Ling Fengjin' has always been in my hands. Later, I had a conflict with Master and his old man, and I took the opportunity to bring the 'Bai Ling Fengjin' to Lingguan City, so that I couldn't use the token on the next few 'worship days'. But this time, I decided to make amends, return this token that should have belonged to Xiaojia Villa, and go back to the villa to participate in this worship day. ”

"We are also very happy that Senior Brother Wuzhong can have this realization......" Xiao Bo also responded with a smile, "When the time comes, I will say a few more words in front of Master, maybe Master will also be Senior Brother Wuzhong, Senior Brother Wuzhong, you can return to our Xiao family." ”

"I would like to do the same, but it may be too early to ......," Xiao Wuzhong replied, and his tone seemed to be gradually changing.

Xiao Tian, Xiao Qi and the others on the side didn't say anything, they knew very well that Xiao Bo was looking for a message to leave here quickly. Now that Xiao Wuzhong has returned the "Bai Ling Fengjin" to himself and the others, the more he stays here for a minute longer, the more dangerous it will be for Xiao Bo and the others.

So, Xiao Bo continued to smile and said to Xiao Wuzhong: "Since Senior Brother Wuzhong has returned the token of the gang as mentioned before, and this side can be regarded as completing the master's task, then we will not stay longer, and now return to the villa immediately, and hope that Senior Brother Wuzhong will be able to return to the villa tomorrow to participate in the worship day of the previous head of the previous dynasty as promised." ”

"Definitely-" Xiao Wuzhong, who had always wanted a smooth transition of things, didn't want Xiao Bo and the others to stay here longer, so he also responded, "Since Master Yu Abo and you and others have an order, it is inconvenient for me to stay longer, senior brother." This time, the junior brothers and sisters came, but they didn't entertain you well, senior brother, I really feel a little guilty......" Until the end, Xiao Wuzhong did not forget to deliberately "sensationalize" a few words.

"Nothing, nothing. When Senior Brother Wuzhong returns to the villa tomorrow, we will talk about the gossip ......" Xiao Bo also wanted to drag Xiao Wuzhong to avoid making him suspicious. So he should also say in harmony.

Of course, Xiao Bo himself didn't know, Xiao Wuzhong, who had always wanted things to transition smoothly like this, also expected the same result as Xiao Bo and the others in his heart. So without saying anything more, Xiao Bo opened the door of the main hall and prepared to leave here and return to Xiaojia Villa.

When he went out, Xiao Bo squeezed a look at Xuecui and motioned for her to walk in front. It seems to be telling Xue Cui that once Xiao Wuzhong behind him has any changes, the people in front will leave first.

Xue Cui didn't think much of it. Directly obeyed Xiao Bo's meaning. So, Xue Cui walked in the front, followed by Xiao Qi, Xiao Zhu and Xiao Tian, and Xiao Bo walked in the back. Xiao Bo thought to himself. If Xiao Wuzhong suddenly had some sudden change in the back. It's easy to deal with on your own side.

However, Xiao Wuzhong didn't think so much at this time, seeing that Xiao Bo and the others left smoothly, Xiao Wuzhong, who thought that they didn't know their relationship with the Mengyuan Imperial Court, was also relieved.

Xiao Wuzhong looked back at the bookcase behind him, and the agreement between himself and Wang Dasheng was also hidden in the secret secret pavilion behind him - Xiao Wuzhong was also clear about this, and it was the only thing he was worried about being discovered by Xiao Bo and the others.

But looking at the bookcase as if it was intact, Xiao Wuzhong breathed a sigh of relief. Of course, he didn't know, in fact, Xiao Tian had inadvertently touched the mechanism at the bookcase just now, and Xiao Bo and the others already knew the truth inside.

Xiao Wuzhong walked slowly towards the bookcase. Inadvertently looked down, but an inadvertent sight caught Xiao Wuzhong's attention. I saw the distance in front of the bookcase. There was a semi-circular fan-shaped area, and the density of dust on it was a little different from the ordinary ground around it - this was the trace of the bookcase moving after Xiao Tian touched the mechanism just now.

Xiao Wuzhong saw this inadvertent scene, and his eyes were suddenly startled......

Yiqiē all seemed very calm......

Xiao Bo and the others continued to walk forward, Xiao Bo was thinking in his heart at this time, before he and the others left this courtyard, Xiao Wuzhong should no longer have any doubts. If Xiao Wuzhong behind him makes any changes, he must cover his junior brothers and sisters as soon as possible......

Xiao Wuzhong was in the hall behind Xiao Bo, and then stretched out a hand and slowly made a gesture......

Xiao Bo continued to walk towards the front, not paying attention to Xiao Wuzhong's movements behind......

It was still normal, but the air around him seemed to have frozen a few times, and there was a faint sound of footsteps at the gate of the courtyard, and Xiao Bo's heart couldn't help but lift a little ......

However, the next scene surprised Xiao Bo and the others - almost instantly, a large number of Mengyuan soldiers in white armor suddenly poured in at the gate of the courtyard. These Mengyuan soldiers were well-trained, and after rushing into the compound, before Xiao Bo and the others could react, several columns had already surrounded them in the center of the courtyard and blocked the way of Xiao Bo and the others.

Such a scene, it is obvious that this is Xiao Wuzhong's order just now, and it also directly shows that Xiao Wuzhong admitted his collusion with the Mengyuan court.

Xiao Bo is also clear, it seems that Xiao Wuzhong inadvertently discovered something to change the hexagram. Afraid that Xiao Wuzhong behind him would have any bad actions, Xiao Bo immediately turned around. However, it was another scene that surprised Xiao Bo - the moment Xiao Bo turned around, Xiao Wuzhong made a light effort, and the whole person jumped directly from the main hall to the front of the courtyard gate.

It wasn't over, Xiao Wuzhong pulled out the saber on his body with lightning speed, and pulled Xue Cui, who had not reacted in front of him, over, and put the saber on Xue Cui's neck, holding her hostage.

All the qiē was almost instantaneous, and on Xiao Bo's side, all the people were a little stupid. Xiao Bo was also very surprised, although Xiao Wuzhong had changed his mind, he would never have thought that Xiao Wuzhong would send troops in front of the door to block the way of himself and others.

Xue Cui, who was kidnapped, hadn't figured out what was going on, and in the moment just now, she was intimidated a lot.

"Xue Cui-" Seeing that Xue Cui was held hostage by Xiao Wuzhong, Xiao Tian couldn't help but shout loudly.

"Xiao Wuzhong, what are you doing?" Xiao Bo knew that Xiao Wuzhong had already admitted his matter with the Mengyuan Imperial Court, so he asked in an unceremonious tone.

Xiao Wuzhong sneered—a completely different expression from just now—and then said, "Hmph, don't think I don't know. Just now in the house, you have found the agreement between me and General Wang Dasheng. You know the truth, but you don't say it before me. Looks like you're prepared......"

"You let go of Xue Cui first-" No matter what Xiao Wuzhong does, the most important thing now is to rescue Xue Cui, so Xiao Bo said to him, "No matter what you want to do, you let go of Xue Cui first-"

Xiao Wuzhong disagreed, and continued to sneer: "Hmph, Xiao Bo. I know your martial arts are very powerful, and I am not your opponent, if you let Xue Cui go. I don't have a second resort—"

"Xiao Wuzhong, what do you want?" Xiao Bo asked again after considering what the middle-aged man in the hut was doing this.

"What do I want?" Xiao Wuzhong also wondered.

Xiao Bo continued to speak righteously: "Because of the conflict with Master, you left Xiaojia Villa, and now I don't know what purpose you are in. You have taken refuge in the Mongols. What do you want now?"

"What do I want? What I want is greater than you think!" Xiao Wuzhong suddenly said loudly, "I want to become the head of Xiaojia Villa, so that Xiaojia Villa can thrive in the martial arts under my care!"

Seeing that Xiao Wuzhong really mentioned this issue, Xiao Bo and the others were shocked.

Xiao Wuzhong was still holding Xue Cui hostage, and continued: "I have a conflict with Master, is it my fault? I have always wanted to be the head of Xiaojia Villa, and my father was a member of Xiao Family Villa when he was alive. Master, his old man also made me make this my life's wish before...... But when I had the ability, the master said that I was not suitable to be the head of Xiaojia Villa, and said that I would only bring Xiaojia Villa to the end. Hmph, I don't understand, what do I do with those old and old rules, why is the Xiaojia Villa always hidden in the mountains, but it can't be official? I am different from the Master's principles of managing the Villa, Master is conformist, and how do I really want to make the Villa flourish. So I had a falling out with Master and lived alone in this Lingguan City......"

Listening to what Xiao Wuzhong said, Xiao Bo and the others didn't say anything first, and continued to listen to Xiao Wuzhong's narration.

Xiao Wuzhong continued: "Until later, Master never let me be the head of Xiao's Villa, and I was very painful for this. But I have never forgotten my previous wish to make Xiaojia Villa famous all over the world. Therefore, I found General Wang Dasheng of the Mengyuan Imperial Court, and now in this world, only by taking refuge in the imperial court, can the Xiao Family Villa be prosperous, wealthy, and get ahead! Compared to you disciples of the Xiao family who can only listen to the master's words, but have not made any progress, my vision is much farther than yours——"

"You're crazy!" Xiao Tian finally couldn't help it, and said, "Wang Dasheng is a member of the Mengyuan Imperial Court, as the son of the former head of the Xiao family, you actually took refuge in the Mongols, what kind of face do you have to face the ancestors and ancestors?"

Xiao Wuzhong listened to what Xiao Tian said, glanced at Xiao Tian, and then continued to smile: "Hmph, don't compare me, the future head of Xiaojia Villa, with you, the 'bottom worm', I am different from you, I have great ambitions!"

Xiao Tian listened to Xiao Wuzhong's sophistry, and immediately became angry in his heart, and then he responded loudly: "Defecting to the Mengyuan Imperial Court, going against the ancestors and ancestors, just for the sake of false fame and glory, and being the enemy of the world's destiny, you dare to say that it is a lofty wish?"

"Whatever you say, anyway, now Xuecui is in my hands......" Xiao Wuzhong said again, the sword in his hand was only buckled on Xuecui's neck, and with a slight force, the hostage Xuecui would be killed on the spot.

Xue Cui was held hostage, and she didn't dare to say anything, just made an expression that wanted to resist but was powerless.

"You actually treat an unarmed girl as a hostage, you are simply exterminating humanity!" Xiao Tian saw the painful appearance of his junior sister Xuecui being kidnapped by Xiao Wuzhong, and immediately said angrily, "You are still the son of the previous head, and you actually thought of taking refuge in the Mongols and going against the people of the world, if the Xiao Family Villa is handed over to you, it will only be notorious!"

"Hmph, you just continue to waste your tongue, anyway, I have chips in my hand now, and you don't dare to act rashly......" Xiao Wuzhong sneered again.

"What do you mean?" Xiao Bo seemed to hear that Xiao Wuzhong's words had other meanings, so he asked with a little worry in his heart...... (To be continued......)
