Hedao

Chapter 79 Choice
"It's up to you!" Xiao Wenbai's face sank, and he said: "Our Xiao family's power is mainly in the west city, and the Xu family castle is just outside the west city. The army is strong and the castle is tall and strong. Once we form an alliance with the Xu family castle, it will be There is a way back.

However, the county has always feared that the powers outside the city will become stronger, and if the Xu family fort raises private soldiers, it is a serious crime of treason. Yin, if the Pang family hadn't been too ambitious and pressed every step of the way, we wouldn't have taken this step.

Therefore, it is best to choose Bai Xiuqi. He has a transcendent identity and superb cultivation skills. If you follow him and make him happy, our Xiao family has the hope of taking the road of Si Tianjian and Daomen, and you also have The hope of restoring cultivation. "

"Father, if grandpa is alive in heaven, would he agree with you to do this?" Xiao Qing was silent for a long time, then suddenly looked up at Xiao Wenbo and asked.

Xiao Wenbai's body shook slightly when he heard the words, his face changed several times, and after a long time, he said: "Think about it these days, and by the way, you also slowly transfer the business in your hands to Xiao Liu."

"Qing'er's business has been developed through her hard work. Why sacrifice her now and hand over her business to Xiao Liu instead of Cheng Rui?" Xiao Qing's mother heard the words again Can't help but interrupt angrily.

"Now the eldest brother is in charge, not me, and you are the mother who knows Cheng Rui's ability best. But if he has half of Xiao Qing's ability, I will win this business to him." Xiao Wenbo said in a bad mood.

Listening to the conversation between her parents, Xiao Qing felt indescribably sad.

She used to be the proud daughter of heaven, so many people surrounded her, not to mention the two closest people in front of her.

But now?She hasn't been sent out yet, even her closest mother's mind has been put on the fight for profit.

"Father, mother, it's late at night, I want to rest." Xiao Qing suppressed the sadness in her heart, and said to her parents calmly.

"Qing'er!" Xiao Qing's mother realized that what she said just now was inappropriate, and she couldn't help but blame herself.

"Mother, I'm fine, I'm just a little tired." Xiao Qing said lightly.

"In this case, you should rest early." Xiao Wenbai nodded, then winked at his wife, and the two left the green bamboo building together.

"Miss, why don't we leave Fangqiang City?" Xia Yan said angrily as she watched Xiao Wenbai and his wife leave.

"It's easy for me to leave, but what about my parents and my elder brother? Since my grandfather passed away and my strength disappeared, Sifang has actually been suppressed everywhere in the family, and many branch clan members who are attached to us have also alienated us. .

So although I was sad that my father failed to fight for me, I also understood his situation.Alas, I can't ignore the kindness of upbringing and the love between brothers and sisters after all! "Xiao Qing sighed a long time, turned around, two crystal clear tears fell quietly, and the graceful back was bleak and lonely under the light.

"But that Bai Xiuqi is old and licentious; that Xu Yuanwu already has a lot of wives and concubines, and he is very arrogant and domineering. In the early years, he was bullying in the outer city, and you were severely punished by you, miss." , if Miss marries him, the days to come..." Xia Yan said with a worried look on her face.

"You go down too." Xiao Qing interrupted.

"Miss!" Xia Yan cried out worriedly.

Xiao Qing didn't speak, but just waved her back to Xia Yan.

"Then I'll go out first, miss you call me if you have something to do." Seeing this, Xia Yan sighed and retreated.

"Grandpa, what should I do?" Xiao Qing sat alone in front of the candle lamp, looking at the wick and muttering to himself, two lines of hot tears fell quietly.

She has always been an extremely intelligent woman, so from the day when her grandfather was killed and she lost her energy, she took precautions and shifted her focus to business in order to increase her influence and value in the family , the purpose is to have the right to speak and choose as much as possible.

But people are not as good as heaven.

She did not expect the Xiao family to be so cold and ruthless, nor did she expect the Xiao family to fall so quickly, and the Pang family to be so insidious and cunning.

Originally, according to the customary rules formed by the various family forces, the position of county lieutenant in Fangyi County has always been held by the Patriarch of the Xiao family. The post of county lieutenant.

This is a bottom-up system in the Great Qi State that selects talents as officials. It is called the Juju System, and it is generally controlled by local wealthy families.

As a result, once her grandfather died, Pang Qiwei suggested that Yu Hongshan, the patriarch of the Yu family, be elected as the county lieutenant under the pretext that her uncle Xiao Wenchen's strength and prestige were not enough to deter the soldiers.

Originally, although there were conflicts of interest between the Yu family and the Xiao family, they had always advanced together and retreated together in their attitudes towards foreign forces.

But the temptation of the Pang family to throw out the post of county lieutenant is too great. The Yu family believes that they are powerful, and with the help of the position of county lieutenant, even if they don't unite with the Xiao family, they can still compete with the Pang family.

As a result, the Yu family and the Xiao family fell out, and Yu Hongshan got the post of county lieutenant. The post of county lieutenant he vacated was given to Lin Jinghan, the head of the Lin family. .

Naturally, Xiao Wenchen was not reconciled to subservient to Yu Hongshan, so he acted as his second-in-command, so he used the strength cultivated by the Xiao family in the army for many years to fight openly and secretly with Yu Hongshan.

The Pang Lin family took the opportunity to stuff a lot of people into the army, and gradually weakened Yu Hongshan, while the Xiao family declined day by day.

By the time the Yu and Xiao families realized something was wrong and increased their efforts to support the Lu family, they were already at a disadvantage.

And I think back when the Pang family first settled in the county mansion, the heads of the Yu and Xiao families, each with a bone refining realm, were sitting in town and controlling the army. The duty of guarding is also that the strong dragon does not suppress the local snake.

But now the situation is reversed, the Pang family is already a raptor crossing the river, the Yu family has a strong bone refiner sitting in it, and is still in charge of the seal of the county lieutenant, barely able to hold on to the situation, the situation of the Xiao family is far worse .

However, the Xiao family has been operating in Fangqiang City for generations, and has always been strong, and they are not willing to hand over their hands to become a vassal. Driven by others, they have no choice but to form an alliance with forces outside the city.

Later, once, Gou Baixiuqi, the supernatural supervisor of Sitian, accidentally met Xiao Qing in the Xiao family. thought.

After all, power outside the city is a double-edged sword. If there is an alliance, no one knows what the final result will be.

"Grandpa, can I abandon the Xiao family? Or do I live in humiliation for the Xiao family's hundreds of people?" Xiao Qing looked at the candle light blankly, and continued to mutter to herself, feeling the pain in her heart.

……

"Oh!"

"This evil animal is so cunning that he escaped from here!"

Wuyang Mountain, somewhere in the valley.

Xu Pengkun slapped a tree angrily, the trunk cracked, and snowflakes flew around along with the branches and leaves.

"Father, why don't we go over this valley to expand the search area?" Xu Yuanwu suggested.

Yan'e and the others changed their faces slightly when they heard the words, and they all looked at Xu Pengkun, showing a hint of nervousness in their eyes.

After crossing the valley, you will really enter the place where strange beasts and monsters haunt Wuyang Mountain, and the degree of danger will inevitably increase greatly.

"Forget it, Wuyang Mountain is vast and boundless. How can it be so easy to search for the injured Eight Desolation Green Python? Besides, we acted hastily this time. It would be dangerous if we really encountered a powerful strange beast." Xu Pengkun's face changed for a while, and finally waved his hands.

Everyone secretly breathed a sigh of relief when they heard the words, but Xu Yuanwu roared to the sky unwillingly.

The roar echoed in the valley, and it took a long time to dissipate.

"Father, I'm not reconciled! We spent so much money and material resources, and even lost two powerful martial artists and many good players, but in the end we only got two broken Nine Rank Blood Yuan Bone Strengthening Secret Pills.

Originally, if the Eight Desolation Green Python could be caught and killed this time, not only would it be able to make up for all the losses, but with the Eight Desolation Green Python in hand, that woman Xiao Qing would kneel down and beg me, instead of us praising their Xiao family and begging to follow them Get married! "On the way back, Xu Yuanwu said to Xu Pengkun unwillingly.

Eight years ago, Xu Yuanwu broke through to the state of concentration at a young age and became one of the most outstanding young masters in Fangqiang City.In the end, in the XC area, she was defeated by the talented girl Xiao Qing in front of everyone, and she was severely reprimanded.

It is precisely because of this that later Xu Yuanwu worked hard and practiced hard, so that he first broke through to the realm of luck in just two years, and it took nearly six years. At the beginning of this year, at the age of [-], he broke through When he reached the state of Huajin, he became one of the two Huajin martial arts masters of the six young masters in Fangli County.

However, Huajin is different from Ningjin and Yunjin. The state of Huajin endows Jinli with more changes and spirituality.

Xiao Qing has always been an indelible shadow in Xu Yuanwu's heart, so after reaching the state of energy transformation, his mind cannot be understood, energy has always been lacking in changing spirituality, and his cultivation has stagnated.

It can be said that it is Xiao Qing who succeeds, and Xiao Qing who loses!

So a few days ago, after Xu Pengkun and his son understood the reason, they expressed their intention to marry the Xiao family.

As long as Xiao Qing is brought into the room and tortured to his heart's content on the bed, the lingering shadows of many years will naturally dissipate.

The Xiao family used to be a wealthy and powerful family in the city who could almost overwhelm the Pang family. Even though the Xu family is powerful, it is still an outside force. The Xiao family fears them and at the same time despises them.

In the past, the Xiao family would definitely not consider marrying Xiao Qing, an outstanding child who once represented the glory of the Xiao family, to Xu Yuanwu who already had a wife.

However, the Xiao family is no longer what it used to be, the situation is pressing, and Xiao Qing has no hope of recovering his cultivation, so Xu Jiabao came to express the marriage, and the Xiao family was moved.

But a skinny camel is bigger than a horse, Xu Jiabao is married to Xiao's family, Xu Jiabao is superior to others, everything depends on Xiao's family's wishes.

"There's nothing to be reconciled to. Changes in the world are impermanent! Xiao Qing was so majestic back then, even your father and I had to avoid her when we saw her, let alone you.

But now, she is nothing more than an iron warrior, and she can't even decide on her own marriage.No matter how you say it, you are many times stronger than her now.When you marry her, once you get rid of your heart problems, once you find an opportunity to break through to the bone refining realm, even the entire Xiao family will have to rely on you, uncle! " Xu Pengkun said in relief.

"Father said so!" Xu Yuanwu replied, looking into the distance with a sinister look.
