"Are you referring to the Bingshan Army?" Sheng Leng smiled coldly, put down the wine glass in his hand, and after pondering for a moment, said slowly, "They are indeed difficult guys. If we attack the Gu family directly, Bingshan will definitely bring the Bingshan Army with him. Stop them together, because Gu Yu has a special status, and Bingshan will not let a half-step seventh-level alchemist die under his nose. Are you worried about this?"
Xue Man nodded and said, "No matter how strong the four of you are, you probably can't withstand the 100,000 men of the Iceberg Army!"
"It should be said that together we are no match for the Bingshan Army!" Sheng Leng said, "But as long as we control the ancient jade, the Bingshan Army will definitely take action and not dare to act rashly!"
"But is that guy really reliable? An uneducated playboy who has probably never even killed a chicken is actually allowed to kill people? And are you sure about the poisonous elixir you administered? Gu Yu is half a step ahead. If he is a seventh-level alchemist and finds out and unlocks the poison pill, then all our efforts will be in vain!" Xue Mandi said lightly.
"It seems that you, the Xue family, don't have a choice whether it succeeds or not! Besides, if something goes wrong with my poisonous elixir, I'll just be responsible for it, and I don't need to bother you to worry about it."
"I'm just worried about failure. I don't mean anything else. However, I have one last question!" Xue Mandi looked directly into Sheng's snake-like eyes and said.
The student was holding a wine glass and looking at the snowy ground with interest.
Xue Mandi then said, "I'm curious, why did you choose our Xue family? Is there any necessary reason?"
Sheng took a sip of wine and said slowly, "Can I say this is fate? Or maybe I just like your Xue family, and there is no other reason."
Xue Mandi's eyes did not waver at all, still staring straight at Sheng, apparently dissatisfied with Sheng's answer.
At this time, Xue Mantian on the side held Xue Mandi's hand and whispered, "Father, please stop saying a few words! Stop taking it seriously..."
He also didn't understand why his father was still trying to persuade him not to provoke these people more, but now he was talking back to them. Could it be that his father was really old and confused and his brain was not very good? Already?
However, Xue Mandi did not respond at all to his son Xue Mantian's advice. He still stared straight at Sheng, like an ice sculpture that had not changed for a thousand years, stiff and strong.
But Sheng just said in a slightly threatening tone, "It won't do you any good if you continue to ask!"
As soon as these words came out, Xue Mantian was extremely nervous. He could see that these people were not easy to deal with. Not only did he beat the two elders so much that they dared not speak, he also forced his way into his home and forced them to My father didn't even dare to open a defensive formation.
If such a person says such words, and his father dares to contradict him again, I am afraid that these people will be stimulated, and they will really be able to do anything!
Xue Mantian saw that his father could not be persuaded, so he spoke to Xiang Sheng again, "Sir! My father was confused for a moment. We don't dare to contradict you, sir. Please show your respect. You have a lot of people, so don't argue with us." Forget it, if you have any questions, just ask us, and we will do our best to help you!"
When Sheng heard this, he pursed his lips and smiled, and said, "You are a talented person who knows current affairs, but your father still likes to break the casserole and ask the truth! If you talk like this, aren't you afraid that your father will beat you up?"
Xue Mantian glanced sideways at his father, who had a displeased look on his face, and said cautiously, "This... I believe my father would not do this!"
"Hahahahahaha, you can see clearly!" Sheng laughed and said.
"Tell me! Who among the Gu family do you want to kill?"
Xue Mandi suddenly said such a sentence, which shocked everyone into silence for a long time, and no one said a word.
At this moment, Sheng finally met Xue Mandi's eyes. The two of them met sharply like needles facing each other.
"Why do you say that? Maybe we just want to help you!" Chou said quietly from the side.
"There is no such thing as unreasonable kindness in the world, and I don't believe you would be so kind as to come here just to help us deal with the Gu family. I have eliminated many speculations, and the biggest remaining possibility is that you yourself are not against the Gu family, or that the Gu family There is your enemy among them!" Xue Mandi said methodically.
As soon as he finished speaking, Sheng smiled and clapped his hands, saying, "As expected of the head of such a large family, his analysis is clear and logical! In this case, I will tell you the truth, the reason why we deal with the Gu family is because of the We have taken in people we should not take in, but it is not convenient for us to deal with them directly, so we have to cooperate with you..."
"Oh, is that so?" Xue Mandi fell into deep thought after hearing this, and then suddenly said, "Do you want to deal with those people with a pig?"
Sheng's eyes lit up and he said, "Haha, Master Xue's memory and eyesight are really good! You have remembered all this."
Xue Mantian also scratched his head at this time, thinking in his mind whether there was a group of people with pigs in the Gu family?
Thinking about it, Xue Mantian suddenly remembered that when the ancient jade was refining elixirs, there seemed to be a real pig standing in the ruins of the black tower? !
At this time, Xue Mandi continued, "Since they are people who should not be kept, why not ask the Iceberg Army to deal with them? Or is it that even the Iceberg Army cannot deal with this group of people?"
Sheng smiled and said, "It's not that I can't, but I dare not! Let me tell you the truth, we have approached Bingshan Army before and wanted to cooperate with Bingshan, but after knowing about it, he did not agree to cooperate with us and even warned If we dare to cause chaos in Fulong City, he will not let us go easily."
Xue Mandi frowned when he heard this, but did not continue to ask.
For some things, it is enough to know part of what you should know. If you ask about things you should not know, you should stop.
He also vaguely guessed what these people were thinking, they just wanted to use their reputation to kill people.
According to his guess, the identity of the group of people with the pigs should be very sensitive and important. If they were killed openly, the turmoil caused might not be affordable even for the seemingly fearless people in front of them. .
Perhaps because it happened to be the time when the Xue family and the Gu family were fighting endlessly, this group of people thought of the opportunity to continue the fight between the two families, blended in, and looked for opportunities to kill people!
Thinking of this, Xue Mandi hesitated for a while, and didn't know whether it would be a blessing or a curse for the Xue family to involve this group of people in the fight between the Gu family and the Xue family. After all, the Xue family is in Fulong City. It may seem like a big family, but if you look at it on the land of Kyushu, it's just a drop in the ocean.
…………
At the door of Gu's house.
In front of the gate, the two gatekeepers were yawning and chatting.
The door was closed at this time. Several small families had sent people to deliver gifts before, but a steward persuaded them to go back, saying that it was already midnight and asked them to come back tomorrow to deliver gifts.
I have to say that the strength of this family has greatly increased, but it is different. Even the elders of those small families have to speak politely to their servants, and from time to time they have to stuff them with small red envelopes or something.
It's not like I used to look at them with my nostrils, and I don't take them seriously at all.
"Hey, don't tell me. When the steward of the North City King sent someone to deliver a gift today, he secretly stuffed me with a piece of silver! He said he wanted me to use it for drinking." A servant said with a smile.
"What's this! I also received a lot of money from guarding the door today. We can be regarded as old people among the servants of the Gu family. We have never seen such big storms. Those people from the big family, when the old man of the Gu family was still there, they were so kind to us. They were polite, although not to the extent that they are now, but at least they greeted us with a smile. As soon as the old man of the Gu family left, these people began not to take us Gu family members seriously, and looked at us like Yelling five and six. Let me tell you, the money they are giving now is just to make up for the mistakes they made before!"
"I see, you are indeed smarter and see things clearly. But I don't care about this. I can't understand all these twists and turns. I just want to work in the Gu family peacefully. , earn some coffin money for yourself. This world is going to be uneasy soon. After finally getting quiet, there is going to be a war again, and it is the human race who will fight it themselves! Alas!" Another servant sighed.
"Who says it's not the case, but the war is none of my business. I don't have a son or anything, so I don't have to go to the war. I just stay here in Fulong City. I don't care if he fights well. The water is rising!”
"Huh? Who do you think that is? It seems to be coming towards us!"
"It's so late, why are there still people here? Logically speaking, no one is allowed to run around on the streets in the middle of the night!"
"Looks like he's a drunk who can't find his home! If he dares to come to Gu's house to cause trouble, I'll have to wake him up!"
Just as the two servants were discussing how to deal with the man who stumbled towards the Gu family in the middle of the night, they suddenly discovered that the man's clothes seemed somewhat familiar.
"Eh? This person's clothes?! It seems like I've seen it somewhere before!"
"That seems to be the second elder's son, Mr. Gu Shi!"
"Yes, yes, I remembered it. The servant in the previous class also told me that Mr. Gu Shi went out to drink again. He asked me to pay attention in the second half of the night. If I see him, remember to give him a prescription. Door"
"This dandy was born into a good child. He can live and drink all day and all night, but we can only work conscientiously and run around all day just to make ends meet."
"What can I do? I have to bow my head honestly!"
…………
When Gu Shi finally walked to the door of Gu's house, holding on to the wall, and spit it out with a loud sound, the two doorkeepers could only endure the stench and hold Gu Shi. After he finished vomiting, they carefully helped him in. door.
