Chapter 141 Return without success
Although Xia Houyi is a goodwill, it seems so irrelevant to Xia Houtian. For Bingying, he must move forward bravely.
"Uncles, uncles, they are all my elders. It's not my turn to speak, but since my uncle allowed it, I said it."
"It doesn't matter if Xiaotian says it. Maybe our Xiahou family will look up to you in the future."
Xiahouwen is kind, but he is calculating in his heart. What will Xiahou Tian say? Is it Xiahou Yi's instruction? Is it related to the main department?
Xiahou Tian glanced around, supported a god, saluted Xiahou Wen, and said, "Uncle Wen, I don't know Peng Cheng?"
"Peng Cheng?"
Xia Houwen made all preparations to deal with Xia Houtian's words, but he never thought that Xia Houtian said the name, because the name was related to a secret of the main department, and he couldn't help but be a little surprised.
"Xiaotian, what do you mean by asking this person?"
"Since Uncle Wen asked, I will say it directly. Just yesterday, when I was entrusted by my uncle to explore the disappearance of people in the imperial city, I accidentally saw this person, a supervisor who was considered dead many years ago!"
"What, Peng Cheng is still alive?"
"Yes, Uncle Wen, I heard that Peng Cheng, Zeng Jing met Uncle Wen and didn't know Uncle Wen?"
Xia Houwen didn't listen to Xia Houtian's next words. There was only one question in his heart, that is, why did Peng become dead!
"Uncle Wen, Uncle Wen?"
Xia Houtian called repeatedly, but Xia Houwen still did not answer. Seeing this, Xia Houwu couldn't help walking to Xiahou Wen and shouted, "Brother Wen, what's wrong with you?"
Xia Houwen's face turned pale and he was suddenly stunned. Seeing that everyone was staring at him, he immediately said, "It's nothing, it's just that I've been cold. It's nothing."
Hearing this, Xia Houwu immediately said with concern, "Brother Wen, do you want me to invite Dr. Wang to treat you?"
"No, no, I'm almost all right, so don't bother Dr. Wang."
"Oh, Brother Wen, don't overwork these days. Take care of your health. Come on, come on!"
"The little one is, Master Wu, what can I do for you?"
"Go and get a bowl of ginger soup!"
"Yes, Master Wu, I'll do it now."
"Brother Wu, sit down first."
Xia Houwen reacted like this. Xia Houtian had reason to believe that Xia Houwen did know Peng Cheng, and the relationship was not ordinary. As for Xia Houwen said that the wind was cold, Xia Houtian was already a practitioner of immortals in the foundation period. At a glance, he could see that Xia Houwen was full of vitality, and it did not seem to be affected by the wind and cold at all!
Xia Houwen knew that Xia Houyi and Xia Houtian came to visit. It must be ten or nine, so he no longer quibbled and said, "Yes, I really know Peng Cheng. I don't know why Xiaotian asked about this?"
"Uncle Wen, Peng Cheng, according to my judgment, is undoubtedly a cultivator of immortals, but he is not orthodox. He is an evil cultivator. In addition, recently, the people in the imperial city have frequently disappeared at night, so I have to thoroughly investigate this person!"
"So, Xiaotian thinks that the recent disappearance of people in the imperial city is what Peng Cheng did?"
"It depends on whether Uncle Wen can provide me with some clues before I can finally confirm it!"
"In that case, what do you want to know, say it!"
"Well, Uncle Wen is so outspoken, so I'll be blunt. I heard from my uncle that many years ago, the main department wanted to annex my collateral line. I don't know if there is such a matter?"
Xiahouwen also asked, but Xiahou Wu got up and shouted angrily, "I knew that you came to find faults. However, five years ago, my main system was so powerful that I wanted to annex your side and strengthen the power, which made our Xiahou family stronger. Why not?"
"Brother Wu, sit down!"
"Brother, you have come to the door. You are still so calm. Do you see that my master has lost its majesty?"
Xia Houtian looked at Xia Houwu, his eyes narrowed slightly, and his eyes were waiting for him tightly. A faint pressure emanated, sweeping to Xia Houwu.
Xia Houwu, who was originally furious, suddenly felt a little short of breath, and the pressure around him doubled. He grasped his throat tightly with his hands, as if he was about to commit suicide, and his face suddenly turned red!
"Wu Di, how are you doing?"
Xia Houwen asked with concern, left his seat, and came forward to hold Xia Houwu. Xia Houwu struggled to speak, but he didn't say a word.
"Xiaotian, even if he is offended, he is your elder after all. Just forgive him. Uncle Wen is here to thank you."
Xia Houtian slightly relaxed the pressure and looked at his uncle. Xia Houyi was holding a teacup and tasting the tea in the cup carefully. He immediately understood Xia Houyi's intention and exerted it again. Xia Houwu's face suddenly turned redder, as if he could suffocate to death at any time! |
Xiahoutian has been in charge of the system for many years. How can he not understand the mystery of it? He handed Xiahou Wu to the servants next to him, walked to Xiahouyi and said, "Poveremaster, please show mercy. I think that Xiahou Wu has made contributions to our Xiahou family. Please spare him his life!"
"Oh? Why did Brother Wen say this? I didn't move. Why did I make Brother Wen like this?
In the face of Xia Houyi's aggressiveness, Xia Houwen squeaked his teeth, knelt on one knee, and pleaded to Xia Houyi, "I, Xiahou, have been listening to the dispatch of the patriarch since today. If I don't obey, I am willing to listen to the patriarch's hair, and I will never complain!"
"Brother Wen, please get up quickly. You and my brothers, how can you stand such a big gift? Well, put it away!"
This sentence was not only said to Xia Houwen, but also to Xia Houtian. Xia Houtian heard the hint and suddenly stopped. Xiahou Wu suddenly felt that the pressure was greatly reduced. With the help of his servants, he returned to the chair and looked at Xia Houtian with fear, which looked very apparing.
"Thank you, patriarch!" Seeing that his brother was fine, Xia Houwen saluted Xia Houyi again.
"Brother Wen, you don't have to do this. I haven't done anything. How can I say thank you?"
Looking at the usually kind uncle, today he is abnormal and aggressive. Although Xia Houtian is a little unhappy, he also knows that he must accept it. If Xia Houfeng is successfully returned today, maybe Xia Houwu just now will be his father.
This is the sadness of the family. As a son of the family, his words and deeds must be in line with the interests of the family. At this moment, he feels that he is tired. Perhaps the struggle between immortals is more suitable for him than the game in front of him. He has made up his mind that once he helps his uncle find out the disappearance, whether Zhang Ming comes or not, He will leave and return to his world of immortal cultivation. Maybe at the moment he stepped into the Qingyun School, he no longer belonged here.
Aware of Xiahou Wu's eyes, Xiahou Tianyu said calmly, "Uncle Wu, are you all right?"
Xia Houwu suddenly trembled all over and said, "I'm fine, er."
"Oh, since Uncle Wu is fine, I'm relieved."
Looking at Xia Houwu's expression, Xia Houtian knew that as long as he was still alive, Xia Houwu would never dare to be rude to his uncle again. Because in the face of the threat of death, Xia Houwu had lost his spirit. Even if he regained his power in the future, he could not remove the shadow in Xia Houtian's mind.
Looking at his trembling younger brother in front of him, Xia Houwen knew that the main department had lost another general, but he couldn't say anything, so he had to keep it in mind and talk about it later.
After the simple episode, Xia Houtian repeated the old saying and said, "Uncle Wen, can you talk about Peng Cheng?"
"Okay, Xiaotian, since you want to hear it, I'll tell you that Peng Cheng appeared in Las Vegas about ten years ago. At that time, I happened to be..."
After listening to Xia Houwen's lecture, there was nothing that Peng Cheng ordered the master to give up the annexation five years ago. It seemed that he was trying to hide something. However, after all, Xia Houtian was a descendant, and he didn't ask much, so he stopped talking.
After hearing this, Xia Houyi weighed a balance in his heart. To be honest, he can make Xia Houtian attack on the spot. As long as he redo the method of dealing with Xia Houwu just now on Xia Houwen, in his opinion, he can definitely ask questions.
However, I still had an attack just now. If I come again, I'm afraid that the main person will have a lot of complaints, but the key things have not been asked. For a while, I didn't know what to do. I looked at Xia Houtian and motioned him to make a decision.
After thinking about it, Xia Houtian said, "In this case, uncle, it's getting late. Let's go back first!"
"Okay, excuse me, Brother Wen, goodbye!"
"The patriarch, take your time!"
Xia Houwen was sent to the door, and many main leaders followed him. It was not until Xia Houyi's carriage disappeared on the street that he returned to the house!
In the carriage, Xia Houtian said to his happy uncle, "Duncle, it will be difficult for me to fight with my side in the future. As long as I am in a day, they will not rebel!"
"Xiaotian, my uncle is also helpless, originally..."
"Big uncle, you don't have to say. As a child of the Xiahou family, the opportunity to cultivate immortals is provided by the family. I should do something, but after I understand the matter of Peng Cheng, I will go somewhere else to practice. Please don't talk about the replacement!"
Looking at the determined teenager in front of him, Xia Houyi knew that if he insisted, he would lose his nephew: "Okay, it's up to you! Hey!!"
