Chapter 7 The Hermit Family

"Where are we going?" Zhang Yu looked at Cao Xu beside him and couldn't help saying. The car made by Zhang Yu along the way has indeed left the city and drove towards the suburbs.

"Of course, it's a place to live! You will know when you arrive!" Cao Xu smiled mysteriously. Drive to the suburbs.

You can see some lights sporadically through the windows along the way. Before long, the car came to the edge of a castle.

"It's here!" Cao Xu drove the car directly into the castle, turned his head and smiled at Zhang Yu.

"Is this place?" Zhang Yu got out of the car and looked at the huge castle in front of him, and his face couldn't help changing slightly.

"My home!" Cao Xu said with a smile.

"Your home?" Zhang Yu looked at Cao Xu's difficult words and felt that his head could not turn.

"Yes. Is there anything wrong?" Cao Xu continued with a smile.

"But..." Zhang Yu frowned, "You are not a dragon group. How can you have a house here in Europe, and it's still such a castle!"

"Who stipulates that members of the dragon group can't have a house in Europe?" Cao Xu said with a straight face.

Zhang Yu couldn't help shaking his head, "That's not it, it's just... nothing!" It's just that Zhang Yu has always thought that the members of the dragon group should no longer have any industries abroad. In fact, this is just Zhang Yu's wishful thinking. There is no such rule in the dragon group. As long as they are loyal to the country, other regulations are not too binding on the dragon group, otherwise they will not have the right to live and kill.

The castle in front of us is very big. In this suburb, there is no castle standing out from the crowd, which can be seen from afar during the day. In the medieval architectural style, there is also this ancient wall outside the castle. The whole castle is made of stones and bricks, and there are green climbing tigers on these bricks. Entering it is like coming to the Middle Ages.

"Let's go!" Cao Xu took Zhang Yu to the castle.

The gate of the castle opened after Cao Xu rang the doorbell several times, and the two went straight in.

Entering the castle, the design inside still retains the medieval style. The only difference is that there are more modern facilities, which gives people a pleasant feeling.

"What does your family do? That's a lot of money, right?" Although Zhang Yu doesn't know much about European prices, it does not affect his assessment of the value of the castle. Having such a castle is definitely a great blessing in Europe. In China, it is definitely a task that people look up to. People with such a value will never enter the dragon group for the tens of thousands of yuan salary of the dragon group. This is what makes Zhang Yu strange. As far as he knows, a large part of the members of the dragon group are for the tens of thousands of yuan of salary, and he joined the dragon group with enthusiasm.

"In fact, this castle was left by the ancestors of our Cao family. I just inherited this castle. In fact, this is also the fourth time I came here, and the first time I came here when I inherited it. Cao Xu looked around indifferently and said with a smile.

Cao Xu looked at Zhang Yu and continued with a smile, "Do you think that since our Cao family is so rich, it is impossible to join the dragon group at all?" Looking at Zhang Yu's embarrassed look, Cao Xu said again, "In fact, in addition to some people who joined the dragon group for salary and enthusiasm, there is also a class of people in the dragon group. Such people will join the dragon group for almost generations. Since the establishment of the dragon group, they have been guarding this oriental power that has been passed down for thousands of years."

"There are still such people, are they from the hermit family?" Zhang Yu couldn't help but say doubtfully. From the information of the dragon group, Zhang Yu once saw this word and knew that there were still a group of ancient families in China. Although these families may not be the richest families, they are definitely the mainstay of China. They have been the guardians of China for generations.

"The hermit family?" Cao Xu was stunned and said with a smile, "This should be what you saw from the information of the dragon group."

Zhang Yu nodded and did not deny it.

"In fact, these families have never been hidden, but ordinary people don't know them at all. Occasionally, one or two ethnic groups among them are mistakenly called hermit families by the outside world." Cao Xu shook his head and said, "For thousands of years, even before the Dragon Group was established, these families were the guardians of China. After thousands of years, many of these hermit families have disappeared in the long river of history, and there are few left."

"Why do you know so much about the hermit family? Is your Cao family the same

"The hermit family?" Zhang Yu listened to Cao Xu's words and couldn't help asking.

Cao Xu nodded and sighed, "In fact, the hermit family also has a lot of helplessness. The hermit family and the country are inextricably linked. Once something happens to the country, the power of these hermit families will also be extremely hurt. Therefore, our interests and the country are closely linked, with both glory and loss.

"Are there many members of the hermit family like our dragon group?" Zhang Yu hesitated for a moment and said.

Cao Xu shook his head and said, "Six thousand years have passed, and how much is left? It can't be said that the dragon group is the whole country, and there are not many hermit families. What's more, you still have a lot of dragon group members who haven't met. You will know when you see them in the future.

Zhang Yu smiled bitterly and knew that Cao Xu had said a lot. There were some things that should not be said. The information about the hermit family was not even in the information of the dragon group. It can be imagined how the country kept these messages secret. Cao Xu can say so much that he is a little out of power. No matter how much it is, it is not appropriate.

"Li Ma," Cao Xu suddenly said.

Shortly after this sound, a figure came out of the room beside him.

The visitor is a woman in her fifties, wearing a gray-white dress.

"Miss!" The man who came looked at Cao Xu and said respectfully.

"Is dinner ready?" Cao Xu said indifferently.

"Ready!" The old woman said respectfully.

"Let's go, let's eat!" Cao Xu looked at Zhang Yu and said with a smile. The two came to the restaurant.

There is a neat row of food on the long table, and there is a seat on each side of the long table. The lights around have long been turned off, and there are several candles with red light in the middle of the long table.

"Sit down!" Cao Xu smiled.

Looking at the food on this table, Zhang Yu couldn't help smiling bitterly. The people of the hermit family were really extraordinary.

"Do you want to drink?" Cao Xu raised his head and said to Zhang Yu opposite.

Zhang Yu shook his head and said, "I won't drink. The jet lag hasn't been adjusted since I just arrived in Paris. I'm not used to it."

Suddenly, a faint piano song sounded faintly around. Suddenly, with a faint candlelight, it looked very elegant and romantic.

Such a romantic atmosphere makes Zhang Yu a little uncomfortable. Although he and Cao Xu are old acquaintances, they are still not used to this atmosphere. After a quick meal, Zhang Yu replied early to the room arranged by Cao Xu, and went to bed early on the pretext of jet lag.

"This guy doesn't understand the amorous feelings at all. If it goes on like this, won't he gain anything in Europe this time?" At this moment, Cao Xu sat on ** and muttered.

After saying this, his face couldn't help blushing slightly, and he immediately lay down and fell asleep.

Maybe it's really because of the jet lag, or maybe there are other reasons. Anyway, by the next morning, Zhang Yu and Cao Xu got up late and didn't leave the room until 10 a.m.

"Zhang Yu, did you sleep well yesterday?" Cao Xu ate breakfast and said to Zhang Yu.

Zhang Yu shook his head and pointed to his dark circles. "Maybe it's because of jet lag. I didn't sleep well last night!"

"Me too!" Cao Xu smiled bitterly and immediately picked up the newspaper in his hand. "There is an auction in Paris today. Are you interested? Let's go and have a look."

"Auction?" Zhang Yu couldn't help but be stunned.

"Is it an auction about Chinese art and European art?" Cao Xu continued.

"Is there anything wrong with the auction?" Zhang Yu's face changed slightly. For Zhang Yu and others, the auction is secondary, and improving his own strength is the most important thing.

Cao Xu was also stunned. He didn't expect Zhang Yu to see the key to the problem so quickly. He couldn't help laughing and said, "According to the news of the Dragon Group, there is an inheritance of an ancient sect in China in this batch of auction items. The boss ordered that he must get this thing. So we must go to this auction this time. And there must be a lot of power people participating this time, so I hope you can also go together.

"Isn't it because of your vacation this time, but for this task?" Zhang Yu's face can't help but change. What a existence of the inheritance items of an ancient sect. The dragon group will never let this important item flow abroad, and it is absolutely necessary to take it. It's even more certain to send someone.

Cao Xu nodded, "This time I really didn't come here for this vacation, but for this task. And you can also be arranged in Europe, which is the mission.

Zhang Yu smiled bitterly from the bottom of his heart. This is the base camp for European powers. It's not easier to bring something out from here than to the sky. It seems that his vacation has been completely reimbursed.

"Don't worry, you are still worried about the arrangement of the dragon group. This task is definitely the simplest, as long as we take pictures of inheritance items. Cao Xu did say without any worry.

"Aren't you afraid of European powers taking action?" Zhang Yu's face changed slightly.

Cao Xu couldn't help laughing, "The inner family is really angry. These foreigners have not been studied out, and it's useless for them to get these more old things!" In fact, what worries me most is Japan!"

"Japan?" Zhang Yu said doubtfully.

"That's right, it's Japan!" Cao Xu's face became serious. "These island powers have not only secretly learned the five elements of yin and yang of our country's inner family, but also many other things. Once this item is obtained by the Japanese powers, they will learn that the power of East Asia may change a lot!"
