Chapter 236: Xuanyuan and Xiahou
Then, they talked about the love and hatred between the Xuanyuan family and the Xiahou family.
It is said that decades ago, Xuanyuan City was just a town-level stronghold, and it was not named after Xuanyuan. There are two big surnames in the town, namely Xuanyuan and Xiahou. People from the two families get along very harmoniously. There are often intermarriages between the clans, creating a harmonious atmosphere.
Later, as the territory slowly expanded, their stronghold was finally qualified to be promoted to the county level. This was originally a great joy, but the two major families had serious differences over the name of the stronghold.
The Xuanyuan family wanted to be named after Xuanyuan, and the Xiahou family wanted to be named after Xiahou. People from both families wanted to overpower the other family, and no one would give in.
At first, the two families only had a verbal argument, but then it gradually developed into a physical conflict, and finally they became hostile to each other. Perhaps the two families had a lot of conflicts a long time ago, and it was just because of this that they broke out.
...
In order to obtain the naming rights of the county-level stronghold, members of the two families each found powerful official forces as backers. The power behind the Xuanyuan family is the third prince, and the power behind the Xiahou family is King Zhenzhou.
At that time, it happened to be the time when the three princes were each in their own way and standing on the same side. Among the three princes, the eldest prince was the strongest and had the largest territory; but the second prince was the successor to the Dragon Emperor and was the new emperor in name only.
Compared with the two of them, the third prince has the weakest power and the smallest territory. According to legend, the third prince himself did not like power, so many decisions were made by those under him. Among them, the most powerful and prestigious one was King Zhenzhou.
After the Nine Provinces Continent experienced the Three Emperors Rebellion, the prestige of the royal family in the hearts of the people in the world has become lower and lower, and there are even voices hoping to "change the dynasty."
Within the group headed by the third prince, some people suggested that King Zhenzhou should establish himself as emperor. Perhaps because of the lingering power of the "Dragon King", King Zhenzhou did not do this. However, there are many things that cannot be controlled by one's own control, and an undercurrent has gradually emerged between the third prince and King Zhenzhou.
Therefore, it is not so much the two families of Xuanyuan and Xiahou that are competing, but it is better to say that the two major forces headed by the "Third Prince" and the "King of Zhenzhou" are gaming behind the scenes. This game triggered several big fights and almost split the entire "Third Prince" group.
In the end, the Xuanyuan family was lucky enough to win, and the stronghold was officially named Xuanyuan County. Then with the great help of Jian Zong, Xuanyuan County finally became an autonomous city, which is now Xuanyuan City.
After the Xiahou family failed in the fight, the family patriarch left with his clan members, and then formed a new force with the Nalan family in Nanjian County: the Nanjian Sect.
Perhaps it was because the fight between the Xuanyuan family and the Xiahou family was too fierce. From then on, there was no stronghold named after the family in the Kyushu continent.
...
Feng: "It turns out that your two families still have such a connection. In this case, I can't go to the Xuanyuan family and the Xiahou family."
Xuanyuan Yiyue: "Brother, don't be discouraged. If you want to learn swordsmanship, you can still go to the Sword Sect."
Xiahou Xinghai: "Yes, you can also go to other colleges."
...
As the three of them chatted happily, they came to the edge of the forest unknowingly.
Just when they were about to walk out of the forest, several law enforcers blocked their way.
Law enforcers are very similar to patrollers, but the main law enforcement scope of law enforcers is in the human area. Facing the powerful "enforcer", the three of them did not dare to make any mistake, and could only say shamelessly: "What's the matter?"
But what was waiting for him was not an answer, but being knocked unconscious.
Seeing his eyes plunge into darkness again, Fengcai's excitement suddenly turned into disappointment, just like a newly lit torch that was suddenly extinguished by the flood. It was so disturbing.
He asked himself: "What big thing is going to happen?"
"Hey, now that it's here, let's make peace with it." There was nothing he could do about the situation but take off his gaming device and walk out of the room to make himself a pot of tea.
Currently, he still lives in a rental house on the ninth floor.
After the official opening of the studio, he originally planned to rent out the two houses on the ninth floor, but after thinking about it carefully, he decided to continue to renew the lease.
Because this place is not far from their "studio", it can be used as a dormitory for employees, providing accommodation for children like him and Xiaotian who "cannot" go home.
The three-bedroom apartment next door is now occupied by Xiaotian and the new colleagues who joined the studio. One of them is Xiaotian's friend from the previous e-sports company.
"Get up and drink tea." He made a pot of tea and shouted to another room.
"Here we come." Xiao Chao's voice came from inside.
Since the online video went viral, Xiao Chao moved here to "take refuge".
Not long after, Xiaochao was wearing a pair of slippers, with a head full of fluffy hair, his eyes were bloodshot, and he could clearly see the dried eye droppings in the corners of his eyes. While walking, he yawned, obviously he didn't get much rest last night.
"Is there no news about Meng Qi yet?" Feng asked after handing over a cup of freshly brewed tea.
After a cup of hot tea, Xiao Chao exhaled a breath of hot breath: "Not yet, but people have been sent to her hometown to look for her. We should get the news this afternoon."
"If you find it, what do you plan to do with it?" Feng continued to ask.
Xiaochao said casually: "Of course let her tell the truth."
"Do you still like her?"
Xiaochao fiddled with the teacup in his hand, looked at the empty cup that he had finished drinking, and answered after a while: "I guess you like it."
In fact, as a man, Feng Xin already had his own answer to this question. This brother of his is good at everything, but he is too "loving" in terms of emotions.
"Come on, put down the cup." Feng did not continue to ask, but poured the tea silently.
Just as Xiaochao stretched out his right hand to pick up the tea cup, he suddenly shouted: "Oops, something happened."
Feng asked doubtfully: "What's the matter?"
Then, Feng saw an incredible piece of gossip news on Xiao Chao's cell phone.
The headline of the news was: "Scumbag girl cheated on her before marriage, rich boy broke off the engagement angrily".
The protagonist of this article is Zhenzhen. The description of Zhenzhen in the article can only be described in four words: "unsightly".
After reading the news, Feng immediately dialed Zhenzhen's phone number.
The call was connected dozens of seconds later, and Feng asked with concern: "Are you okay?"
"I'm fine." The other end of the phone answered extremely calmly.
"Where are you? I'm coming to accompany you now."
"No, I want to be alone for a while first." After Zhenzhen finished speaking, she hung up the phone.
...
Xiaochao was not idle here either. He had already dialed Brother Hao's phone to inquire about the relevant situation, and quickly formulated a series of response plans.
Soon after, Feng's phone rang.
Westbrook: "Did you see what happened to Zhenzhen on the Internet?"
Feng: "I just found out."
Westbrook: "This matter is not as simple as it seems. According to the reliable information I have received, they will release content about you next."
Feng said nothing because he had already guessed this in his heart.
Westbrook: "Zhenzhen and you are actually just appetizers. The person they really want to deal with should be Hua Shao."
Feng: "What can I do?"
Westbrook: "Don't do anything for the time being. If it's not necessary, don't leave the place where you live now. If someone knocks on the door, you must call to confirm."
Feng: "I understand."
Westbrook: "Hua Shao and I are discussing countermeasures."
Feng: "Okay, thank you for your hard work."
Westbrook: "Don't worry too much, just wait for our good news."
...
After hanging up the phone, Feng felt an indescribable feeling in his heart. His mood could only be described as "one wave after another".
He and Xiaochao have really become brothers in distress now.
...
In the afternoon, Feng logged into the mobile game mode and found that the game character had woken up, so he quickly put on his gaming equipment and logged into the game.
At this time, he was in a room with empty surroundings. After looking around, he opened the door of the room. Outside the door is an ordinary courtyard, which is antique and has some characteristics.
But now is not the time to enjoy the beautiful scenery. He just wants to find his "second brother" and "third sister" quickly and leave here.
Soon, he came to the gate of the courtyard, where two majestic guards stood at the door. However, the guard at the door did not stop him and gave him a letter.
The letter read: "Brother, my second brother and I are going to the Sword Tomb first. We have prepared horses for you. Please follow us quickly."
Just a few dozen words made him feel warm in his heart and put a smile on his face unconsciously.
So, he mounted the horse prepared for himself and started running towards the sword tomb of the Sword Sect.
When we arrived at the Sword Tomb, the Sword Tomb event "Magic Weapons" had already begun. The event lasted for three days. The content of the activity was very simple, which was to choose a sword that suits you in the Sword Tomb.
In this case, he strode into the sword tomb, ready to start his journey to find the sword.
In fact, his requirements are not high: he just needs to find a sword with metal and fire attributes, level seven.
...
The entire Sword Tomb was shrouded in fog, and visibility was very low. The warriors were more than ten meters apart and could no longer see each other's traces. Moreover, the Sword Tomb is also very large, consisting of many hills and basins.
These hills and basins are filled with all kinds of swords with different shapes. The grade, quality, and attributes of the sword cannot be detected before it is pulled out.
The only way to know the information about these swords is to put your hand on the hilt, and then feel, sense, and feel.
There are too many elements of luck in this, perhaps just like the old saying: "The treasures in the world are those who are destined to get them."
.....
Touching one sword, he shook his head, the second sword, he shook his head again, the third sword, the fourth sword, the fifth sword, the sixth sword, the seventh sword, the eighth sword... I don’t know which one it is, but he hasn’t found the one that suits him.
Unconsciously, the sky had slowly darkened, and he could only temporarily walk out of the sword tomb and come to a nearby post station to rest.
He went to the Sword Tomb again in the evening, but his luck was still not good. He still didn't find what he wanted. Maybe it was because the fate had not come yet.
