The Lord's Mansion of Jiacheng City.
The leader of Jiacheng, Chairman of Xijiajia Munan, was sitting upright.
He has gray hair on his temples and a majestic aura.
Between his eyebrows, you can vaguely see the charm of his youth.
I think he must have been a handsome man back then.
In his hand he was stroking a foldout, which read——
Jiang Wang was born in Fengxi Town, Fenglin City, Qinghe County, Zhuang State, and studied Taoism at the Fenglin City Taoist Academy. There is a sister who lives in Lingxiao Pavilion of Yun Kingdom. Attachment: Maplewood City was destroyed by the White Bone Road Rebellion in the twelfth lunar month of 3917 in the Dao Calendar, and it is still trapped between the underworld and the real world.
Xi Zichu, who was dressed in brocade robes, stood at the bottom and was talking eloquently: "...he already knows the 'causes and consequences' of the lapis lazuli vein. The Chongxuan family's losses have been compensated by me, plus his own." Harvesting can also be restored to a great extent. In this way, he will have no reason to stay in the mine anymore. We will just clean up the influence of the Chongxuan family and completely control this domain. Just in time for the future..."
When he said this, he changed the topic: "As for Hu Shaomeng, this man can't find out what his son is doing. He has been like this since he was a child. Even if he now worships Diaohailou, he will not be an exception. The thing he plots must be his son in the end. of."
"What if..." Xi Munan rubbed his hands and said slowly, "What if Jiang Wang doesn't leave?"
"Why doesn't he leave?"
"Sometimes overconfidence becomes arrogance." Xi Munan lightly knocked on his son: "While you were playing with women, the principals of the five families have returned to Jiacheng safe and sound."
Xi Zichu thought for a while and then said: "I still underestimated Jiang Wang. But it doesn't matter. He left those people alive just to express dissatisfaction with his son or to collect money on the way. It is always a harmless thing and does not affect the overall situation. . If my son increases the amount of compensation, it means that a few extraneous things are nothing to pay for."
Xi Munan nodded secretly, this child is indeed smart. Based on the information he had received before, he could guess Jiang Wang's movements quite accurately.
However, he was still too conceited and therefore overlooked some things.
"Don't you understand yet?" Xi Munan shook his head and said, "He will not leave Hu's mine."
"Why? My son really can't think of any reason for him to waste time here when Chongxuansheng and Chongxuanzun are competing fiercely."
"Is it possible that he has seen through the purpose of you and Hu Shaomeng? You can guess through Hu Shaomeng, and Hu Shaomeng can also discover your awareness immediately and rush back to Qingyang Town. Could it be that Jiang Wang, as Chongxuan Sheng's Chief retainer, can’t you figure it out?”
Xi Zichu shook his head confidently: "He is not among the most intelligent people my son has ever seen."
"Is the reading, hearing, asking and understanding of Dongwang Valley really so miraculous? Or is it because you are not good at studying?"
Xi Munan said, throwing the paper fold in his hand into Xi Zichu's hand.
"The old devil of the White Bone Path, Lu Yan with a dark eye, has been planning for many years. Du Ruhui, an old and cunning person from the Zhuang Kingdom, devised a plan to 'discord between generals' and kept it secret from the world for many years. Behind the confrontation between these two figures is Huang Quan. The Bone God and the entire Zhuang Kingdom at the bottom of it. The fall of the entire Maple Forest City has long been determined. This Jiang Wang can survive that level of disaster, how dare you underestimate him so much?"
"He is one of the winners in Tianfu Secret Realm. Those who have also succeeded include Zhongxuan Sheng, Li Longchuan, and Wang Yiwu!"
"In Nanyao City, he defeated Jiang Wuyong, the eleventh prince of Qi Dynasty. Lian Que, who made the famous weapon, almost broke up with the family because of him, but Zhongxuan won because he did not hesitate to confront Jiang Wuyong head-on."
Xi Munan was sitting on his seat, looking at Xi Zichu with some disappointment: "Zi Chu, let's not talk about the previous ones. You know the latter two things. You have only been in Dongwang Valley for a few years, how can you be so unparalleled in the world's heroes? What’s up?”
Xi Zichu lowered his head: "Father. My son knows his mistake."
He quickly raised his head again: "How did father know his origin?"
Even though the information contained only a few lines of information, the power behind it was extremely terrifying. To be able to find out a person's origin in Zhuang State in Qi State, what kind of force can do this?
At least the Xi family can't do it.
This consistent agility satisfies Xi Munan, but he never showed his approval of his son. He just said: "The Chongxuan family."
Xi Zichu nodded: "It seems that Zhongxuansheng really values this Jiang Wang. Otherwise, Zhongxuanzun will not pass the news to us. In this case, I am afraid that we will not be able to drive away Jiang Wang, and even more We can't kill him. It can easily be seen as taking sides. We can't get involved in the whirlpool of the Chongxuan family. We are far away in the Yang Kingdom, and there is no benefit in winning. If we lose, the family's disaster will be imminent."
"You don't want the thing you and Hu Shaomeng are staring at?" Xi Munan asked intentionally.
"Compared to the Xi family's hundreds of years of existence, other things are not worth mentioning."
"This is the reason. But..." Xi Munan said: "We can't kill Jiang Wang, but we must drive him away."
Xi Zichu smiled bitterly and said: "As you said, Jiang Wang has made up his mind not to leave Hu's mine. Since we can't kill him, how can we drive him away?"
"No." He reacted immediately: "I have already given up on that thing. Why do we still have to get rid of him?"
Xi Zichu looked at Xi Munan: "Father, are you hiding something from me?"
Xi Munan avoided talking about the following questions and just said: "Just because we can't kill him doesn't mean others can't."
At this moment, a man who looked like a master walked in quickly, whispered a few words in Xi Munan's ear.
Xi Zichu recognized him as Master Liu, whom his father trusted the most. Although he has no actual position, he is actually only under Xi Munan in the entire city lord's palace.
He had doubts in his heart, but he would not ask his father for answers in front of this person.
After Master Liu said a few words, he stepped aside.
Xi Munan remained calm, looked at his son and said, "There is an accident in a restaurant in the south of the city. You go and deal with it. Remember what I told you."
Xi Zichu glanced at Master Liu and said, "Yes."
…
When we arrived at the restaurant where the incident occurred, the place had been cordoned off by the city guards.
Xi Zichu found that the city guard soldiers guarding outside the restaurant had ugly expressions, as if they had been frightened.
Vomited filth could be seen on the ground not far away.
There is probably something disgusting and scary in the restaurant...
Xi Zichu briefly observed the outside, then walked into the blocked area through the passage specially made for him.
Stepping into the restaurant, even though I had expected it, my steps were still momentarily halted.
He saw——
The entire restaurant was in a mess, with tables and chairs tilted here and there, and broken glasses and plates scattered in a pool of dark red blood.
In the middle of the hall, there was a large iron pot with a blazing fire underneath.
Above the iron pot...
Naked human corpses hang upside down like a forest.
Each has its flaws.
Some were cut off in half.
Some even saw bones.
Through the rising white fog, you can vaguely see...
Half a human hand floats in the iron pot.
Lewen
