Gu Xiao and others waited in the He Family Fort for about half an hour before Jin Buyi arrived belatedly. The head of the He family's worship nodded slightly to Gu Xiao and the others, then walked to He Kui's side. Whisper for a moment.
Seeing the light flashing in He Kui's eyes, Gu Xiao felt a little strange. Since the worshipers sent by the He family had warned Hejiabao for help, why did he and the others rush to set off? The current head of the family of Hejiabao , but had to wait for a while, until Jin Buyi rushed back after leaving temporarily, exchanged a few words with He Kui, and then He Kui started to leave.
However, Gu Xiao was now focused on catching the liger as soon as possible in exchange for a way to enter Murong Valley, so he did not pay attention to the strange behavior of these two people. When everyone heard He Kui speak bluntly, the group thought The He family left behind the mountain.
Similarly, everyone first arrived at the old site of the Feng Family. Looking at the ruins all over the ground, Gu Xiao frowned and said secretly: "Why is there such a ruined place with such a family fortune in Hejiabao?"
Remembering the mysterious looks of He Kui and Jin Buyi just now, Gu Xiao lowered his voice and said to Jiang Ningxue: "Miss Jiang, I always feel that everything in Hejiabao is a bit strange, but I can't say what's wrong with it. .”
"There is indeed something strange. Considering the reputation and status of the ancestors of the He family and Mr. Chongyang in the world, it is true as they said that the Hejiapu has been harassed by ligers for so many years. Why has there been no news? It is this year's flood. Only after Canglan and Yuwentuo arrived did they ask for help, and looking at the expressions of Fort Master He and Jin Buyi, I was not at all nervous about the ministers of the He family who had sent out cloud-penetrating arrows to ask for help. On the contrary,..." Jiang After hearing Gu Xiao's words, Ningxue also expressed her doubts.
"On the contrary, you have some expectations, right?" Gu Xiao thought about it carefully, and realized that this was what he had always felt was strange. As the current head of the Hejiabao family, He Kui, the masters in the martial arts world that Hejiabao had painstakingly recruited for many years, sent out a signal for help. He shouldn't be in a hurry and rush to help with a few of his own people, but he acted calmly and let Jin Buyi go and make some preparations before giving the order to set off.
Thinking of this, Gu Xiao turned his eyes to He Kui, who was leading the team with a calm expression. The current head of the He family, without saying a word, led everyone to walk quickly through the ruins.
Gu Xiao found some clues again. Among his group, whether it was Jin Buyi, Shui Canglan, Yu Wentuo and others, with the martial prowess of these people, if He Kui was eager, he would never be so slow. , it seems that Lord He is waiting for someone to catch up.
Although he was doubtful, Gu Xiao still wanted to get a way to enter Murong Valley by catching the liger. Thinking of this, Gu Xiao still suppressed his doubts and silently followed He Kui and Jin Buyi on their way. OK.
Thinking that he might be in danger, Gu Xiao took out the Jinghong Sword from the sword box while no one was paying attention, quietly handed it to Jiang Ningxue, and said softly: "The He family still has so many gold, silver, and bronze clothing to protect them. We went to round up the ligers in front of the hospital and sent out a signal for help. Miss Jiang, if something goes wrong soon, don’t be careful."
After getting hold of Jinghong Sword, Jiang Ningxue suddenly found that this magic weapon that had been with her for many years was no longer as cold as before. When she met the concerned gaze of the young man in green shirt, the coldness in her cold eyes rose slightly, Jiang Ning Xue quickly avoided the young man's gaze.
Yuwen Tuo, who saw all this in his eyes, might have torn up the letter that the young man in green clothes wanted in his arms if he hadn't been concerned about his reputation as the chief disciple of the Sword Master of the Ni Dao Sect. He couldn't help but feel pity in his heart. , all because this liger caused the He family's arena to be suddenly interrupted, and he failed to defeat the green-shirted boy in an upright manner on the arena.
Gu Xiao was indeed right. Jin Buyi and He Kui were not entirely focused on rushing to support the worshipers of the He family. As they walked, the two kept looking back, as if they were waiting. who.
Even though Shui Canglan was a straw bag, he had discovered some clues at this moment. He was about to ask these two people, but he heard the sound of clothes breaking through the ruins behind him, and a man with eagle eyes and a snub nose came quickly. He caught up with a few people who were on their way and called out loudly.
"Stay here."
When everyone heard this man speaking, they all stopped and followed the sound. The person who came was none other than He Jiabao, the third master of Hejiabao.
Seeing He Ji coming, He Kui and Jin Buyi ignored him.
"Third brother, aren't you taking care of my father's daily life? It's too dangerous to capture ligers. You'd better go back quickly." Seeing this, He Kui hurriedly stepped forward to greet him and said with concern.
When He Ji was in Huachao Garden earlier, he saw that his father had arranged for He Kui and others to go to the back mountain with manpower. His anger had reached the extreme. He Kui's words aroused the anger in his heart for many years. His eldest brother 'Beyond the words, it doesn't mean that I am only qualified to take care of my father's daily life and food, and I am not qualified to do these 'big things'.
Thinking of this, He Ji, who returned to his room, became more and more angry. Finally, he ignored the instructions of the ancestor of the He family and could not suppress the competitive spirit in his heart. He secretly left Hua Chaoyuan and headed towards the north side of the He family arena. I came after the old site of Feng's family.
He Ji's Qinggong was not weak in the first place, and he finally caught up with Gu Xiao and his group before they entered the back mountain. But before he could speak, He Kui's "concerned" words drove He Ji all the way to calm down. A handful of new firewood was added to my heart, and the inexplicable fire suddenly ignited again.
"What's going on, He Kui, it's not you who has the final say in Hejiabao. I came here just to get my father's order to send you back to serve and capture the ligers. I'll just lead everyone there."
He Ji knew that his 'eldest brother' did not dare to disobey his father's words, so he rushed here rashly. If he said anything, he might not be able to join the team that captured the ligers, so he might as well take advantage of his plan. He pretended to pass on his father's order and told him to go back obediently. When he led his men to catch the liger, his father would never look down on him again.
"Oh? Father never changes his mind at the last moment. Please forgive me for saying this, third brother, but I can't obey my orders." He Kui knew very well that his 'third brother' had an impulsive and irritable temper, and he couldn't be provoked. He and Feng One of the plans discussed by the two of them to deal with the old thief He Zhidao was to lure He Ji away without arousing his suspicion. They put on a whole show and immediately pretended to be embarrassed and replied.
"He Kui, your father asks you to do errands on weekdays. Do you really think that you are the one who makes the decision in the He family? I said it was my father who ordered me to come here. You just need to obey my order. If you don't believe it, just wait. Go back to Huachao Garden and ask your father." He Ji made up his mind to snatch the job of catching ligers from He Kui. He gritted his teeth and said, "I will just obey orders." The attitude of coming.
An imperceptible smile flashed across the corners of He Kui's lips, and then he sighed forcefully: "That being the case, please wait a moment, and allow me to go back to Huachao Garden to ask my father for instructions, and then..."
"No, you just go back and serve your father, and wait until I get the news about the liger." Before He Kui could finish, He Ji interrupted He Kui.
Although among the group, Shui Canglan and Yuwen Tuo were both considered famous disciples, they knew other people's housework, so it was better not to interfere. Seeing that the He family brothers were so discordant, everyone had no choice but to say something. Leave temporarily and wait for the two 'brothers' to take care of the matter of leading the team to capture the liger.
Seeing that He Ji had stepped into the trap he had set, He Kui no longer persisted and immediately said with concern: "In that case, the eldest brother will go back to Hua Chaoyuan temporarily and wait for the good news of the third brother."
After saying that, He Kui, who was about to leave, seemed to think of something again, turned around and told Jin Buyi: "Jin Zongfang, please protect my third brother, that liger beast is ferocious, don't let that beast hurt my third brother. "
Before Jin Bubu could respond, He Ji said bitterly: "Jin Zongfeng, you also go back to Huachao Garden with my elder brother to protect my father. When I successfully capture the liger, you will naturally be indispensable. the benefits of."
When He Ji heard his eldest brother telling Jin Buyi to protect him, the competitive impulse in his heart arose again. He thought to himself that without the help of a master like Jin Buyi, if he successfully caught the liger, his father would surely He will look at himself with admiration. Thinking of this, he repeatedly asked Jin Buyi to go back to Hua Chaoyuan together.
But He Ji didn't know that what he did was playing into He Kui's hands. Jin Buyi didn't have to act in front of He Ji. After hearing He Ji's order, he immediately clasped his fists and backed away.
He Kui stood there, watching He Ji's back disappearing into the night as he led everyone away, the flames of revenge rising in his eyes. 33
"Brother Jin, over there with Miss Feng..."
"Don't worry, before we set off, I had already informed her secretly. Our journey has been delayed for a long time. She should take the lead and reach the back mountain."
"Tonight is the day when Miss Feng and I get our revenge."
The dark night slightly covered He Kui's face, but it could not hide his eyes full of hatred.
The wind blows, the clouds gather, temporarily covering the bright moon, the moon is dark and the wind is high, killing the night.
——
In the Flower Chaoyuan, the ancestor of the He family has returned to the main hall. A violent cough caused him to return from He Ji's room. It seemed that he had spent a lot of energy, and he finally moved his seemingly old body to the Taishi chair. , sat down slowly, and the ancestor of the He family called out habitually: "Ji'er, get Dad a cup of ginseng tea."
"Ji'er..." Seeing that no one answered, when Patriarch He spoke again, he remembered that his son was no longer in the garden tonight.
There was a look of worry in his cloudy eyes. The ancestor of the He family secretly thought in his heart that he had disobeyed his master's orders and sent out even the last trump card, just to protect the last bloodline of the He family. There was no other place to go. What a mistake.
After another violent cough, the hands covering the mouth of the ancestor of the He family were covered with blood.
"It seems that this injury cannot be cured. Every time he exercises, his lungs are like fire. The Feng family's unique Kung Fu is really extraordinary. It seems that Qi Yun Wulin is really a crouching tiger." Hidden dragon." The ancestor murmured, but the violent cough made him unbearably thirsty, and ordinary tea could not stop his old illness caused by internal injuries.
"Ancestor, are you still well?" A greeting came, and Mr. Chongyang's figure rang out.
Only then did the ancestor of the He family remember that after He Kui, Jin Buyi and others set off with help, the Chongyang Brush was still in the Huachao Garden. At this time, his old illness relapsed, and he didn't care much, so he ordered the Chongyang Brush: "Chongyang Brush." Sir, go and ask Old Wei to make me a bowl of tea."
Chongyang Bi lightly waved the feather fan in his hand and stared at the aged appearance of the ancestor of the He family. He couldn't help thinking that there was no one else in Hua Chaoyuan at this time. If he took action to control this old thing at this time, he would be forced to As long as he hands over the prescription of Fushou Pills, he will no longer have to ask the ancestor of the He family for Fushou Pills to relieve the pain every year because of the scarlet poison entering his body, and he will no longer have to be coerced by him to do anything because of this Fushou Pills. Some shady things.
Thinking of this, the cruelty in Chongyang's writing suddenly appeared.
Some people died, but not completely...
