Chapter 37 The Ji Family Asks for Debts
Long Xu galloped all the way and soon came to the door of the Sword Gate Hall, the door of the Sword Gate Hall was open, Long Xu paused and walked inside. The main hall is not very spacious, except for a few wooden chairs, there is nothing else, and for some reason, I feel a gentle aura energy enveloping me in it, making my whole body indescribably comfortable.
Duan Zhenkun, the chairman of the main door, was at a loss, his old face seemed to have changed a lot, and next to Duan Zhenkun sat a very familiar young man, Yue Feng! When Yue Feng saw Long Xu come in, the eagle falcon's eyes jumped obviously.
"Disciple Long Xu, see the door master!" Long Xu made a polite gesture, his eyes swept over Yue Feng and looked at the door master Duan Zhenkun.
"Hmm. Who did it?" Duan Zhenkun didn't blame Long Xu for negligence, but just looked at the injured arm and asked worriedly. Hearing this, Long Xu waved his injured arm and said, "I encountered a little trouble on the way back, but it's not a big problem, the disciple has already solved them!" After saying that, Long Xu suddenly looked at Yue Feng, and his deep gaze was like a bottomless abyss. Yue Feng's sharp eyes also radiated to Long Xu's body, and the four eyes were opposite to each other, interweaving invisible sparks in the room.
"It's okay!" Duan Zhenkun beckoned to Long Xu and motioned for Long Xu to sit down and speak. After taking his seat, Duan Zhenkun told Long Xu about today's incident, it turned out that because of the pill, the Ji family had been asking for compensation from the Heaven Splitting Sword Gate, a total of two million spars, even if the Heaven Splitting Sword Gate had a rich background, it would be a big headache to suddenly take out this money, the most important thing is that this incident was purely accidental, if the responsibility is pursued, it is actually not to blame the Sky Splitting Sword Gate.
If the pill was robbed normally, it would already be a big loss, and there was no need to compensate at all, but the Ji family came to ask for it in the name of breach of contract this time, this kind of thing that broke his teeth and had to swallow it in his stomach, Duan Zhenkun was naturally unwilling. However, the Ji family is powerful, although the breach of contract is first, but Duan Zhenkun hopes that the other party can take a step back and make the amount of compensation less, but the Ji family does not give this face at all, and insists on asking for full compensation, the two sides not only disputed and finally broke up unhappily, before leaving, the Ji family also said that they would continue to come tomorrow, if the Heaven Splitting Sword Gate could not compensate, it would be regarded as against the Ji family and the Ouyang family, and they would not hesitate to use force.
At this moment, Duan Zhenkun also had a headache because of this matter, and sighed several times as he spoke, although he didn't expect Long Xu and Yue Feng to help him, but the two of them were the survivors of this matter, if they could recall any clues to reveal the real culprit behind the scenes, then this matter would be much easier.
Long Xu pondered and carefully recalled the situation of that day, and felt a gust of wind suddenly hitting on the escort road that day, and suddenly the person turned on his back, and then he couldn't remember anything when it was dark in front of him. Thinking of this, Long Xu said it truthfully and did not find anything abnormal. Yue Feng on the side also said the situation of the day, the experience was about the same as Long Xu, and he didn't find any goals, but he looked at Long Xu several times while speaking, and he didn't know what to think about anymore in his eyes.
After listening to the words of the two, Duan Zhenkun's face was obviously more gloomy, and after a long time, he sighed again and pondered, and finally Duan Zhenkun waved his hand to the two and said, "At this time, I will find a way to solve it, you should retreat first, if you think of something, you must come to report!"
"Yes!" both replied at the same time, slowly exiting the main hall.
"Senior Brother Long, please wait a moment!" Out of the main hall, Long Xu was about to leave, but was suddenly stopped by Yue Feng. "Oh, I don't know what happened to Senior Brother?" Hearing Yue Feng stop him, Long Xu turned back with more interest, in fact, even if Yue Feng didn't look for him, he would have to find it.
Yue Feng's face sank, and he asked, "Senior Brother really can't remember anything about that day?" You must know that this matter is not trivial, but it is related to the life and death of the sect, if Senior Brother thinks of something, please don't hide it!" Hearing the question, Long Xu smiled, and only now did he really look at Yue Feng.
Yue Feng's face is like a crown of jade, and his body can't see anything abnormal, but it gives people a very dangerous feeling, it seems that there is a leopard's power hidden in his body, although his face is not ugly, but his eyes have a cold look, which makes people a little disgusted. After laughing, Long Xu said indifferently: "What Senior Brother said is a little wrong, Senior Brother was with Senior Brother that day, I remember that at that time, Senior Brother was just an outer disciple who had not cultivated and could not embark on the path of cultivation, Senior Brother relied on the strong cultivation of the rank of a military general, and he didn't find anything abnormal, how could Senior Brother notice it!"
Yue Feng glanced at Long Xu suspiciously, and then said: "Look at what Senior Brother said, although Senior Brother I already had the cultivation of the rank of a military general that day, but the opponent was too strong, and I couldn't find anything!" Hearing this, Long Xu asked and said: "Senior Brother, Senior Brother has something to understand, just now Senior Brother also said that the opponent's cultivation is strong and even the cultivation of Senior Brother Martial Rank has not been discovered, so how can Senior Brother escape under such a master? Could it be that he was also hung on a branch by the wind? It shouldn't be so coincidental, right?"
"Are you questioning me?" Yue Feng's face suddenly became fierce, and his tone was filled with anger. Looking at the other party's cold gaze, Long Xu was indifferent: "I didn't say that, but the senior brother said it himself, and it has nothing to do with the junior brother!" Yue Feng's face turned red with anger, and he snorted coldly: "You are a little disciple, these things are not your turn to mix, what are you worried about?"
Long Xu was unrelenting: "Senior brother is right, you are also a little kid, why do you have such a heart? Could it be that you are afraid of being discovered?" Hearing this, Yue Feng immediately reacted, secretly screamed that he was deceived, and immediately eased down, the anger on his face faded faintly, and said indifferently: "I, Yue Feng, am upright, what will I be afraid of?" But Senior Brother I wrote it down today, Senior Brother, the mountains are high and the water is long, let's see!"
"Waiting for you at any time!" Long Xu said. With that, Long Xu brushed his sleeves and left. With a cold snort and looking at Long Xu's departing figure, a sinister smile actually hung on the corner of Yue Feng's mouth.
Leaving the main hall, Long Xu Yan went straight to his house, in fact, this time he didn't need to provoke Yue Feng at all, if he hit the side knock, it might be more beneficial to him. But these days, Long Xu felt that he was in a passive state, as if everything he was under the control of others, and this feeling made him feel very uncomfortable, so he directly opposed Yue Feng. Although this will push you to the edge of the cliff, this feeling of holding it in your hands is very good.
After the lush woods, I finally returned to the courtyard, slowly pushed the door open, and suddenly ushered in a burst of medicinal smell, there were some medicines on the wooden table, and the oil lamp next to it was still hot, obviously someone had just left.
Walking in, I saw a white handkerchief on the table lying on it gently, and looking at the unique pattern on the handkerchief, Long Xu was immediately relieved. It turned out that Duan Rong had already guessed that Long Xu would not go to the doctor, so he ran to grab some medicine for the treatment of external injuries and put it here, now that it was getting late, Duan Rong must have waited for a while and did not come back before turning around and leaving.
"This girl, I really can't do anything about her!" Long Xu shook his head, but he was very happy in his heart. Although the injury on his hand was no longer tight, he still picked up the medicine on the table and applied it evenly between the wounds. It has the effect of invigorating blood and muscles, and can quickly recover from ** damage, looking at the muscles in his hand, Long Xu smiled happily.
The sky is gradually becoming clearer, Long Xu has already cultivated the Tongxuan True Skill and the Sky Splitting Sword Technique in the courtyard, and he knows that strong strength is not only something that can be possessed by relying on talent, but also requires unremitting cultivation of body and mind every day in order to get further growth. Soon, there was a shout from the same disciple outside, saying that the master of the sect told him to hurry to the main hall. Looking at the time, it was close to noon, Long Xu had roughly guessed what was happening, and immediately returned to the room to change into neat clothes, and then followed leisurely.
When he came to the outside of the Sword Gate Hall, Long Xu was suppressed by the aura inside, and the cold air made people feel frightened, and it seemed that a layer of hazy mist was shrouded around the main hall. Holding his breath and pushing the door open, Long Xu stepped in, and suddenly countless eyes struck him, and he immediately showed himself like a girl who had stripped off her clothes, stabilizing her mind, and then Long Xu looked around. Today's door master Duan Zhenkun is still sitting on the chairman's seat, but unlike yesterday, although he is not in good spirits today, he shows a strong momentum.
On both sides of the door owner Duan Zhenkun sat two middle-aged people, roughly the same age as Duan Zhenkun, the middle-aged man on the left, with a moderate figure and long cheeks, a hooked nose and deep eye sockets, and an obvious scar on his bare forehead, which looked a little scary, this person was Ouyang Huxiao, the head of the Ouyang family!
And the middle-aged man on the right is much kinder, with a slight smile on his clean cheeks, giving people a feeling of bathing in the spring breeze, there is an invisible affinity between Zhang He, and his appearance is somewhat similar to Ji Yingying, presumably Ji Xiaotian, the head of the Ji family.
"Come! Xu'er, I've seen the two family masters here!" Duan Zhenkun immediately beckoned and gave a look when he saw Long Xu enter the main hall. Long Xu smiled and hurriedly saluted the two of them, and only after doing this did he look to the side, today Yue Feng also came, and he was sitting on a wooden chair below.
At this time, Long Xu found that there were two young people sitting next to Yue Feng, one of whom was a young girl. The girl looked to be sixteen or seventeen years old, with bright eyes and bright teeth, her hair like a waterfall gently draped over her shoulders, and her eyes were as clear as stars. At this time, the girl also noticed Long Xu, and slowly raised her head to look at Long Xu with bright eyes, but after seeing Long Xu, her beautiful face was suddenly covered with frost, and her white teeth were clenched together, almost popping out of her teeth, two words "It's you!"
Long Xu was also shocked when he saw this woman, and hurriedly took a step back, secretly screaming in his heart! This person is Ji Yingying, the daughter of the Ji family who was teased by Long Xu!
