Chapter 1796: Take a step back and open the sky
As soon as these words came out, although this valley was quiet, it was tantamount to a thunderclap on the ground for Wei Shu, as if he was hit by five thunders, and his whole body trembled.
He hoped that he had misheard, so he swallowed dryly and asked with difficulty, "Master, you... You... Say what?"
Xiahou Tuo nodded slightly, indicating that he had heard correctly.
Wei Shu couldn't hold the fishing rod in his hand, fell on the stone, and slipped into the water again, drifting in the direction of the stream, breathing rapidly and his face was ugly.
Father and son two generations of allegiance to the Xiahou family, he knows too well the meaning of Xiahou Tuo to the Xiahou family, some of the descendants of the Xiahou family may feel that they have the ability to control the Xiahou family, but for Wei Shu, those people are simply difficult to look at Xiahou Tuo's back, Xiahou Tuo's ups and downs in this life is the greatest wealth of the Xiahou family, let the storm between heaven and earth Xiahou Tuo always steer the big ship of the Xiahou family to avoid the reef and ride the wind and waves, the old man of the previous generation died in the hands of the demon monk Nanbo, Xiahou Tuo took over the helm of the ship and took charge of the Xiahou family, first leveled the internal strife of the family, and then sank a generation of starry sky overlord demon monk Nanbo, since then, the ups and downs of the world are all fueled by Xiahou Tuo behind the scenes, stirring up the world, which made the Xiahou family step by step to the point where no one dares to act rashly in the world today.
Wei Shu really didn't dare to imagine that without Xiahou Tuo's Xiahou family, the situation could be raging at any time, can the next ruler lead the people on this big boat to move forward together? Can the next ruler replicate Xiahou Tuo's control? He thinks that the answer is no, they are all born to the same father, but many of them are not the same mother, can those who hold power in their hands be willing to bow their heads and listen to their brothers? Even Xiahou Tuo himself cleaned up a lot of flesh and blood brothers when he took over the Xiahou family.
Even if you don't talk about these, Xiahou Tuo is the mainstay of the Xiahou family, as long as Xiahou Tuo does not fall, no one dares to move the Xiahou family, everyone must be afraid of three points, once Xiahou Tuo is gone, there will be a group of vicious wolves around immediately, I am afraid that everyone wants to bite a bite of fat.
If you can't gnaw it, some people will want to weigh the catty taels of the Xiahou family without Xiahou Tuo, so once Xiahou Tuo is gone, the Xiahou family will immediately face a storm!
From a personal point of view, how to get along with the next head of the family is also what he Weishu has to face, the best result is naturally a smooth transition, and he is afraid that there is only a dead end if he gets along unpleasantly, and there is no possibility for him to retire, because he knows too many secrets of the Xiahou family.
Of course, he hopes that he can be like his father, and can smoothly transition from the old master to Xiahou Tuo, but the key is that his hope is useless, not everyone can be like Xiahou Tuo.
"It's... How is this possible? The master's lifespan should last for tens of thousands of years..."Wei Shu stood up, his words were not in order, his face turned pale, he was completely unprepared for this sudden result, from accepting his father's teachings to Xiahou Tuo's training, he had never been so out of shape.
Xiahou Tuo held the rod in one hand, and the finger on his knee on the other hooked, and the fishing rod that was floating away flew back with a bang. Xiahou Tuo, who was calmly looking at the water, grabbed the fishing rod and handed it to Wei Shu, and said calmly: "Have you forgotten what I taught you? Don't panic when you encounter anything, as long as you can calm down, you will have a three-point chance of winning first." ”
"Yes!" Wei Shu grabbed the wet fishing rod and sat down slowly, trying to keep himself calm, but his face was really hard to turn around.
Xiahou Tuo sighed softly, "It seems that I guessed correctly, you are not yet mentally prepared to transition and support the next one! At this point, you are not as good as your father, your father will always be in a state of chaos, I have learned a lot from your father, you are more like your mother." ”
Wei Shu bowed his head slightly and said: "The old man's lifespan should last for tens of thousands of years..."
Xiahou Tuo: "This is not a reason for you to panic, you remember, no matter what happens in the future, even if the head of the family is panicked, you can't mess up, you must play a role in calming down the head of the family at the critical moment! Remember, such a big family can't mess up by itself first! I repeat, the Xiahou family is not afraid of external troubles to this day, only afraid of internal worries, once they are in internal chaos, they don't need others to do it, they can bring themselves down." ”
"Yes!" Wei Shu replied softly, but his mood was extremely heavy.
Xiahou stretched the rod, dragged a small fish from the water, unhooked, threw it into the bucket, put on the bait, and then threw the line into the water, orderly from beginning to end, as if it was not him who was approaching the end of his life, but someone else. "What is the purpose of the Four Heavenly Kings to rectify the four armies at any cost? It is because they see the crisis, and they must put their forces under their command into a monolithic plate, sharpen their swords, and do other things better, and better resist risks. The green lord looked down at the world and silently played with the heroes in the palm of his hand. The Lord of the Buddha is ready to watch coldly, attacking and retreating, holding the demon tower as the hole card. Six dormants, waiting for an opportunity to move. There's also a bunch of sneaky little sneakers. On the other hand, the Xiahou family, in general, has been too smooth over the years, which is not necessarily a good thing, and after I reflect on it, I feel that the problem lies with me. Born in sorrow and died in peace! It's time for the Xiahou family to experience some wind and rain. ”
Wei Shu looked at him blankly, not knowing what he meant by this.
Xiahou Tuo, who was staring at the water, muttered again, "Take a step back and open the sky!"
Wei Shu was still at a loss.
"The stand-in you prepared for me in the early years can be taken out and played!" Xiahou Tuo squinted his eyes and said lightly.
What does this have to do with the stand-in? Wei Shu was stunned for a moment, and then suddenly realized, the ugly look on his face was instantly swept away, he thought that the stand-in was used to prevent danger for Xiahou Tuo, it turned out... He finally understood why Xiahou Tuo was silent and silent when he was fishing before, it turned out that he was pondering about it.
"Yes!" the relieved Wei Shu nodded, "I'll do it as soon as I get back." ”
Xiahou Tuo handed him the fishing rod in his hand, got up slowly and said, "The second child's cooking skills are still good, let's go, go and see how he prepares, and see if it fits the old man's appetite!"
Wei Shu, who stood up with him, seemed to hear the overtones in these words......
Heavenly Palace, Star Palace, Qing Zhu sat behind the long case, and all the henchmen in the hall, such as Shangguan Qing, Sima Wentian, Gao Guan, Po Jun, and Wu Qu, were all present.
Xiahou's family suddenly appeared an abnormal situation, the light was loose and the darkness was tight, and a lot of people and horses were secretly mobilized to ambush around Xiahou's house, and the entire Xiahou family was blocked by the big array, cutting off all external contact, and even the spies placed in the Xiahou family on the left side of the supervision could not be contacted externally, no one knew what happened to the Xiahou family, only to see that all the people who could enter and exit had ugly faces, not like they were pretending, and there seemed to be worries in their eyes that could not be concealed.
The Xiahou family suddenly came to such a show, which made many people nervous, this family that has raised several generations of overlords and overturned several generations of overlords, this family that claims to be able to win the world, no one dares to underestimate it, a little wind and grass can arouse people's vigilance, not to mention that this seemingly calm but actually quite dynamic action can be concealed from ordinary people but can't hide from people at their level.
However, the blockade of Xiahou's house is not leaky, and no news can be found.
The green lord urgently summoned all his henchmen to come to the Star Hall to discuss the matter, and the results were analyzed and analyzed, and there was never a reason for the analysis.
At this moment, a general outside the hall hurriedly came in to report: "Your Majesty, the Queen of Heaven asks to see you!"
Everyone in the hall, look at me, I look at you, they are discussing the affairs of Xiahou's family, and Xiahou Chengyu is here, is there any connection between this?
It is important to know that there is nothing very urgent, and Xiahou Chengyu generally does not dare to come here to disturb, especially when the Qing Lord gathers a group of henchmen to gather for discussion.
The green lord's eyes narrowed slightly, his gaze was slightly treacherous, and he said indifferently, "Xuan!"
The general walked out quickly, and soon, Xiahou Chengyu hurried from outside, and Shangguan Qing and the others mostly bowed their hands together: "Niangniang!" Only the broken army stood on the sidelines, he didn't shout that it was good to abolish Xiahou Chengyu, even Xiahou Tuo was beaten, how could he still salute Xiahou Chengyu.
"The concubine has seen Your Majesty!" Xiahou Chengyu half-squatted and saluted, his eyes were red, and he seemed to have cried.
"No courtesy!" The Qing Lord raised his hand slightly, and naturally noticed that Xiahou Chengyu's face was different, and asked: "Why does it look like he has cried, what's wrong?" Could it be that Yuan Zun made you angry?"
Xiahou Chengyu shook his head with sadness on his face, "Zun'er is very sensible, the concubine is here to ask His Majesty for leave, and there is news from the concubine's mother's house, let the concubine go back." ”
As soon as they heard that they were really involved with the Xiahou family, everyone present exchanged glances.
The green lord leaned forward slightly behind the case, "Why are you so sad when you go back to your mother's house?"
Xiahou Chengyu seemed to be a little speechless, but in the end he burst into tears and cried sadly: "There is news from my mother's family, saying... said that the Tianweng limit was approaching, said that the Tianweng wanted to see the concubine, and said that he had something to say to the concubine. ”
Qing Lord Huo Ran stood up from behind the case and looked at her with wide eyes.
Here, the others were also full of shock, staring at Xiahou Chengyu's reaction, and all of them seemed to be a little incredulous.
At this moment, everyone suddenly realized that they had finally found the reason for the abnormal reaction of the Xiahou family, and Xiahou Tuoshou had arrived!
Now after a little analysis, it is not difficult to understand that the Xiahou family is loosening and secretly guarding against accidents, and the leakage of the blockade news is to buy time for the Xiahou family to prepare.
"Chengyu, are you saying that the longevity of Tianweng has arrived?" The green lord clearly understood, but he still asked again without convincing.
Xiahou Chengyu raised his sleeves and wiped his tears, and said sadly: "That's what my mother said. ”
She was also a little panicked now, and now she faintly realized the huge impact that Xiahou Tuo's absence might have on her, so she was also in a hurry to go back to see if she could get Xiahou Tuo's favorable advice. (To be continued.) )
