Chapter 265: The Crisis of the Xiao Mansion
The ancestor of the Cheng family was silent for a while, and his eyes finally fell on Cheng Yu Zhenjun, the expression in his eyes was cloudy, and finally he sighed and gave up, "In the final analysis, everything today is caused by what you were confused about back then, and you can't complain about others." ”
"That's it, since the old man decided not to pursue the matter back then, he will solve the matter for you and you, but if there is a regeneration of right and wrong in the future, the old man will definitely no longer interfere and let you fend for yourself!"
Cheng Yu Zhenjun must have a heart in his heart, and cautiously glanced at the ancestor of the Cheng family, "Father, what happened, why did you suddenly mention this?"
"Xiao Xuan has already escaped from the Five Elements Realm, returned to the extraterritorial battlefield, and killed your senior brother Cheng Fang. The ancestor of the Cheng family said in a deep voice, "Now that he has returned to the human race through the Great Shift Array, maybe he has now arrived in Beihai City." ”
Cheng Yu Zhenjun's expression changed drastically, "How is it possible! The child saw him fall into the bottomless abyss and be swallowed by it, and the Five Elements Realm has also been closed, how can he get out of it!"
"There are countless strange things in the human world, maybe Xiao Xuan, the fate of the Heavenly Dao, should not fall, and he will be out of the realm of death due to fate. The ancestor of the Cheng family frowned and spoke slowly.
"Father, Xiao Xuan dared to kill Cheng Fang, you can take this opportunity to get rid of him, otherwise with this person's growth rate, he will definitely become a big problem for my Cheng family's henchmen in the future!" When he killed Wenqu's junior brother, he was destined to die for this. ”
"Wait, the old man has a hunch, and soon, without you and me, this Xiao Xuan will come. When he becomes a father, he will be erased from the world, and all the previous causes and effects will naturally be cut off together, and you can rest assured. ”
"Yes, father. Cheng Yu Zhenjun was respectful, and seeing that the ancestor of the Cheng family was not in high spirits, he retreated carefully, and his face instantly became extremely gloomy!
"Falling into the bottomless abyss can't kill you, Xiao Xuan, your life is really hard enough, but what can you do now, the old man is here, if you dare to come, you will definitely die!" At the north gate of Beihai City, a white-robed monk looked up at the majestic and prosperous giant city in front of him, and his face showed a hint of emotion.
After hundreds of years away, he finally returned.
It's just that I don't know how many people in this city want him to die, but they will all be disappointed in the end.
Now, once the grudge is settled, it should also be settled.
The corners of Xiao Xuan's mouth were slightly upturned, revealing a smile of serenity, and before he stepped forward, he officially stepped into Beihai City.
"Huh, do you look at this white-robed monk a little familiar?" A monk in charge of the north gate looked at the tall back, and his face showed a little puzzled.
"It turns out that you are familiar with it, and I thought that I was the only one who felt it, and I did think that I had seen this person somewhere. The other monk whispered, a look of surprise on his face. The team leader touched his chin, "Originally, I didn't feel anything, but now after you say it, looking at this back, I also feel a little familiar, and there is a smell that makes me afraid, this is strange, Lao Tzu is a dignified cultivator of the heavenly and human realm, and he will be frightened by a back." ”
But at this moment, his body suddenly stiffened, and he suddenly raised his head with a little thought, his eyes stared at the back of the departing monk, his body trembled violently like a swing, and a vague figure appeared in his heart, perfectly blending with the person in front of him.
On the shore of a shallow lake, somewhere on the east side of the street.
Xiao Xuan chose a corner location, ordered a few light side dishes, held a wine jug, and drank by himself.
Not far from the prescription table, several brocade-robed monks chatted while eating, spitting bitterness.
"Alas, business is not good now, when Xiao Fu was in the past, he was tolerant of us, and now the new one is too ugly, and the profit of the month has actually been drawn more than 3 percent, and in this way, we have worked hard in the end, and a little spirit stone earned will fall into his pocket." ”
"Who said no, when Lord Xiao Xuan was here, he was very strict with the monks of Xiao Mansion, and he did not allow the monks under his command to bully us and others, but now after it has been changed to Duanfu, these Wang Ba protein eat and drink for nothing, and they are often picking quarrels and provoking trouble, and now the business of my store has dropped by more than three or four percent compared with before. ”
"That's right, if it goes on like this, brother, I really can't support it, and I really can't transfer it out and shop and then go to other places to make a living. ”
"Okay, okay, don't mention these bad things today, don't talk about it, don't talk about it, you can't say it, you will get yourself into trouble, be careful that trouble comes out of your mouth. ”
"Yes, yes, drink wine and eat vegetables, only talk about Fengyue today, and don't talk about anything else. A few people pushed the cups and changed the lamps, and the atmosphere gradually became warm again.
"Fellow Daoists, when I first arrived in Beihai City, I wonder if you can tell me why this Xiao Mansion was changed to Duan Mansion, and where did the monks in Xiao Mansion go?" Xiao Xuan raised his glass and walked over, his face calm and lightly spoke.
The faces of several people at the table changed suddenly, and they looked at Xiao Xuan coldly with hidden fear, but at this moment, one of the monks suddenly got up, saluted him with a little restraint, and said, "Your Excellency, you don't have to be polite, please take a seat, I can answer the confusion in your heart for you." ”
The monk's face on the table suddenly showed a look of surprise, usually this Lan Shiqian shrewd and cautious should not say anything, and never interfered in what should not be done, how did he suddenly change his personality today, and he was a little more enthusiastic.
However, looking at the respectful look in his expression, these people were not reckless, and they remained silent and did not say much about this matter.
Xiao Xuan nodded and sat down among several people.
Lan Shiqian looked respectful, prepared slightly, and said: "Lord Xiao Xuan of Xiao Mansion left Beihai City, and decades later, the news of his demise suddenly came, Xiao Mansion lost power, and was secretly suppressed and excluded, and after persisting for several years, Cheng Yu Zhenjun proposed in the Great Elders Council to demolish the Xiao Mansion system and expel the Xiao Mansion Xiu. ”
"Xiao Mansion Zhixiu left Beihai City and built Xiao City in the southeast, and has been living there, if the adults have something to do, they can go to find them. Xiao Cheng was suppressed, and now it has gradually declined. "Click!
The wine glass in Xiao Xuan's hand suddenly shattered, and the wine spilled on the table, but his expression was still calm, he didn't show the slightest abnormality, wiped his hands casually, and said lightly: "I'm sorry, I accidentally disturbed your wine in the next one." ”
As he spoke, he took out a few spirit stones and put them on the table with a flash of inspiration in his hand, "Even if today's banquet is a treat, you can use it slowly, there are still some things to deal with in the next, farewell." Yuluo turned around, strode outside, and in the eyes of several monks, he tore through the space casually, and disappeared in an instant when he stepped into it.
In Beihai City, you can teleport, and you need to transform into a god!
Except for Lan Shiqian, the pupils of the surrounding monks contracted violently, and their faces showed a look of horror.
"Lan Daoyou, this ...... Who is this lord who is sacred?" Lan Shiqian had been respectful before, obviously seeing the reality of this person. Lan Shiqian looked at the table spirit stone, and suddenly raised his head to drink a full glass, his face turned red and showed excitement, "Fellow Daoists, you and I have survived for a lifetime, and it is an honor to have this adult invite you to a glass of wine!"
"As for his identity. This person raised his hand and pointed to it, and landed on the shore of the diving lake, which spread for hundreds of miles of luxurious mansions, "I think it will not be long before this place will be returned to its original owner!"
"It's my old bear who is blind and doesn't know Mount Tai, and he actually missed this opportunity to get close, but as Lan Daoyou said, it is already a great opportunity to be able to get this adult to invite a banquet!"
"Come, let's raise a glass, don't miss the adults' hospitality!" Several monks looked at each other with obvious excitement, and when they looked at each other, they could see the excitement and anticipation in each other's hearts. Now that this lord has returned, Beihai City, which has been lifeless for hundreds of years, is afraid that it will set off a stormy wave again!
In recent years, there have been continuous harassment by forces in the surrounding cities, many businesses have inexplicably had accidents, and some people's secretly intentional hints have all led to the inevitable decline of Xiaocheng, and the number of fixed residents has been sharply reduced. The reputation and heritage that has been painstakingly built over the past 200 years has been eroded in just a few decades.
"Lord Steward, it's not that you don't want to stay in Xiao Cheng for a long time, it's really that the business has reached the point where it is unsustainable. There is one thing I didn't tell you, the goods shipped from other places two days ago were robbed, this is the third time this year, and we can't bear it if it goes on like this. Tongyuan Dongjia smiled bitterly, his face showing a little guilt.
The housekeeper of the Xiao Mansion shook his head slowly, his voice low and hoarse, "The Tie Dong family doesn't have to be like this, you can support it until now, and become the last batch of merchants to evacuate in my Xiao City, it is already a great friendship for my Xiao Mansion, I can understand your difficulties." ”
Duan Lao Wei is a relative of the Cheng family, who abolished the cultivation of the housekeeper of Xiao Xuan's mansion, destroyed the foundation of his rebuilding the avenue, and was extremely vicious and isolated from the vitality in his body, and could not be supplemented with any foreign objects, making him like a mortal person, slowly aging in the past few decades, and now he is old and weak.
"Alas, my lord can understand my distress, the old man is relieved, today I am waiting for the Taoist friends to leave is really forced to be helpless, if the situation in the Xiao Mansion improves a little in the future, there is no need for adults to summon me, my Tie family will definitely come again to reopen the shop." The owner of Tongyuan gave his hand, his face was sincere and had no intention of hypocrisy.
The owners of dozens of shops around nodded one after another, their faces solemn. In Xiao City that day, the butler suffered on behalf of the master, and did not hesitate to damage himself to preserve the power of Xiao Mansion intact, so that he established a very high prestige in Xiao Mansion and the entire Xiao City, so even if he cultivated nothing in the past few decades, no one dared to disrespect him at all, otherwise the angry Xiao Mansion monk would tear him to pieces at all costs.
