The road of acting from Douluo

Chapter 712 The Killing Intent Hidden in the Dark Night

When it was time for dinner, the main members of the Taoyuan family gathered for dinner, but the atmosphere in the family today was different from usual.

Perhaps because of the addition of an outsider like Rota, members of the Taoyuan family were not very open.During dinner time, they would discuss with each other some topics related to the future development of the family, but today there are outsiders present, so naturally they cannot openly discuss these confidential topics.

Only Taoyuan Taki had a good conversation with Rota.Judging from the appearance of the two, they don't seem like the type that can talk together at all, but the fact is such a coincidence that Rota and Taoyuan Taki chatted together.

Perhaps because he was not satisfied with his son's behavior, Taoyuan Taki's father put down his job heavily, and asked Taoyuan Taki sternly: "Taki, keep your mouth shut during the meal. Also, the person next to you... um... ...what's the old gentleman's name?"

Hearing Taoyuan Taki's father mentioning himself, Luota also took the initiative to introduce himself: "I'm sorry to disturb you, my old name is Zhang Zhiwei, and I am a Taoist priest who has traveled all over the world. Everyone calls me Old Heavenly Master."

Seeing the extraordinary spirit revealed in Rota's conversation, Taoyuan Taki's father restrained his impatient attitude, and calmly said to Rota: "This is the first time I meet the old heavenly master, I am Taki's father, Taoyuan Akiyama, That kid from my family has caused you trouble."

Taoyuan Akiyama's performance surprised the rest of the members. Taoyuan Akiyama, who was domineering and majestic just now, now has a gentle attitude.

It is true that Taoyuan Qiushan is a strict person, but it does not mean that he has no brains. The old man in Taoist robes in front of him is not an ordinary person at first glance, and it is definitely not good to provoke him rashly.

"It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter, Mr. Ling is very cute, and he can chat with the old man very well." Luota said with a steady smile, showing the demeanor of an outsider with his gestures.

After Taoyuan Taki saw that his father was in a better mood, he also apologized for his rash behavior of keeping Luota for dinner.After all, he was the one who invited Rota to be a guest, and he hadn't discussed it with other members of the family, so there was something wrong.

Taoyuan Akiyama didn't blame Taki too much for his actions, but just said lightly: "Be careful of your actions in the future. Your words and deeds represent the Taoyuan family, so you can't be so reckless."

Seeing that Taoyuan Akiyama didn't mean to blame himself, Taki also responded happily: "Understood, Father. There is another matter I want to discuss with you..."

"Oh? What's the matter? Tell me!"

With Taoyuan Akiyama's permission, Taki also told everyone what he saw and heard in the afternoon.

"In this regard, Father, can you leave this matter to me?" Taoyuan Taki looked at Taoyuan Qiushan expectantly.

Taoyuan Qiushan frowned, and then slapped his palm on the table violently, even knocking over the food on the side with such force, he scolded angrily: "It's just nonsense, how can you, a kid, handle this kind of thing! Respond to this kind of thing casually, and if you don't handle it properly, you will only lose the face of the Taoyuan clan!"

Seemingly because Luota was still on the sidelines, Akiyama's voice softened, but he could still hear a strong sense of opposition: "In short, don't meddle in this matter, it's not something you can handle, be careful with your life Take it in. I have already contacted the professional team, and I believe that I should be able to arrive here soon, and you will stay with me honestly until then."

Taoyuan Taki still wanted to resist, but when he was about to speak, he was grabbed by Rota. Looking at Luota who was smiling, Taoyuan Taki swallowed his words again.

"Mr. Akiyama, it's a rare good thing that this kid Taki has such great ambitions. There's nothing wrong with it. It's better to say that there is a successor to the Taoyuan family!"

As soon as these words came out, the surrounding atmosphere instantly cooled down, and the word heir seemed to make Taoyuan's family very hard to let go.

Sensing the sudden change around him, Rota also realized that the situation was wrong, and admitted his mistake frankly.

"I've just surpassed the old one. If I said some inappropriate words, I hope you will forgive me."

Taoyuan Qiushan wiped the corners of his eyes, shed a few crystal clear tears, pulled himself together and said to Luota: "Old Heavenly Master, you don't need to apologize, it's just that we can't let go of some things, and it's none of your business."

Taoyuan Taki suddenly got up and ran out of the house, seeing that Rota was a little confused, but he didn't expect that the story involved here was really complicated.

"Old man, let's go and see that kid Taki first, young people are sometimes more impulsive."

Just when Luota was about to go out with him, Taoyuan Qiushan took the initiative to stop Luota, "Excuse me, old master, I can see that Taki listens to you very much. Although I don't know why, I still ask you to bring Taki back safely. We The Taoyuan clan... really can't lose Taki again..."

Luota sighed softly, and replied peacefully: "Don't worry, Mr. Akiyama, Mr. Ling will never be in any danger!"

After leaving the Taoyuan mansion, Luota roughly guessed some of the ins and outs of the incident, and presumably it was related to a series of recent disappearances of young people at night.

Looking at the darkened sky, it is better to find Taki Taoyuan as soon as possible, after all, he just said something harsh.

In the cemetery outside Yingluo Town, in front of a tombstone engraved with the words Taoyuanfeng, Taki knelt there with tears in his eyes. Tears involuntarily slipped from his eyes and soaked his collar.

"My lord brother... I must find the murderer for you, and I will grow up to be an outstanding family heir like you!"

Not long after Rota set off to look for Taoyuan Taki, Ichiro Miyamoto visited the residence of Taoyuan's family with several swordsmen from the Demon Slayer Squad.

They came to Yingluo Town only after accepting the commission from Taoyuan Qiushan, and they heard the strange news that the timber factory was haunted along the way, so they stopped by to have a look.In the beginning, their destination was Taoyuan's house in Yingluo Town.

Taoyuan Akiyama bowed slightly, and asked respectfully: "Hello, I think some of you are the swordsmen of the Demon Slayer Squad, how do you call them?"

Ichiro Miyamoto nodded slightly, and replied politely: "Yes, we are members of the ghost killing team. I am the captain of this ghost hunting team, Ichiro Miyamoto. You are Mr. Akiyama who entrusted us with the task!"

After getting to know each other, Taoyuan Akiyama also told Miyamoto Ichiro and others the details of the incident.Just listening to it, Ichiro Miyamoto has a clue. What seems extremely weird to normal people is not surprising in their eyes. In the final analysis, it is just that there are evil spirits at work.

"Mr. Akiyama, we have a general understanding of the situation. No accident, it was caused by a ghost hiding nearby." Miyamoto Ichiro truthfully told Taoyuan Akiyama.

"Ghost? I thought this kind of thing was just a rumor, but I didn't expect it to be true... Wait, you said they only work at night?"

Miyamoto Ichiro nodded in response to Taoyuan Akiyama's question, but he didn't understand the reason for Akiyama's question.

Taoyuan Akiyama's face changed drastically, and he said eagerly to Miyamoto Ichiro: "Mr. Miyamoto, my son Taoyuan Taki, and an old gentleman are all outside, will he be in danger?"

Miyamoto Ichiro also shrank his pupils, combined with the information provided by Akiyama, the possibility of encountering danger cannot be ruled out.

"The members of the ghost killing team obeyed the order and quickly searched for Mr. Taki's whereabouts, reminding other people outside to return to the house as soon as possible."

Miyamoto Ichiro issued an order in an instant, and the swordsmen rushed out of Taoyuan's mansion like a gust of wind without the slightest hesitation.

"Mr. Akiyama, leave it to our Demon Slayer Team, you can rest assured!" Miyamoto Ichiro looked very confident, which made Taoyuan Akiyama a little relieved.

After appeasing Taoyuan Akiyama, Ichiro Miyamoto stepped out of the mansion with sharp eyes, adjusted his breathing rhythm, and searched along the street.
