Chapter 28 We delayed you
Chapter 28 We delayed you
“Is the Xu Mansion really behind the Liehu Gang? "Wu Yuan frowned slightly..
This matter smacked of conspiracy from the beginning. The Liehu Gang raised the 'tribute money' for no reason, and it happened to be five thousand taels.？
Too much coincidence.
However, Wu Yuan broke into the Liehu Gang and killed one after another. After stabbing the gang leader Yang Long to death with one shot, Wu Yuan then had a battle with the mysterious master. The losses were huge and he had no spare energy to explore the causes and consequences of this incident..
“Patriarch, do you have any evidence? "Wu Yuan said softly.
“It was Li Ye, the second leader of the Liehu Gang, who told me personally." The patriarch Wu Qiming's eyes showed a hint of coldness: "He said that if I, the Wu family, return the five thousand taels of silver immediately, I will be fine..”
“But since we don’t know how to do things, teach us how to be interesting.”
“Li Ye? "Wu Yuan recalled the battle that night. It seemed that the short, fat man was stabbed to death by a flying knife.？
Not too impressed.
“This guarding general has gone too far." Wu Yuan pretended to have a look of anger on his face: "We have done everything we should do, and yet we are so forceful that we even let the Liehu Gang destroy our Zhuangzi? Aren't you afraid that the Wu family will sue the sect?？”
“Appeal to the sect？”
Wu Qiming shook his head slightly: "Firstly, we have no evidence, and the competition was held in full view of everyone; secondly, Xu Yuanhan was defeated in the end and just went to Nanmeng Wuyuan.”
Wu Yuan pretended to listen carefully.
“However, I have thought about this matter carefully." Wu Qiming continued: "It is not like General Xu's hand. Although General Xu acts domineeringly, he always speaks the truth. Although things cannot be accomplished, we have tried our best. With his status, There's no need to fall out with us over 'five thousand taels of silver'.”
“Even if he really wanted to get back the five thousand taels of silver, given General Xu's character, he would just summon us directly and use his power to suppress others. Why go through such a big circle? "Wu Qiming shook his head in confusion..
“But few people know about this matter." Wu Yuan frowned: "Could it be the dean? He wants to bring down General Xu？”
The participants in this matter, except Wu family and Xu family.
Only Zhang Da, the director of the martial arts academy,.
“He won't even.”
Wu Qiming shook his head directly: "Once the matter is exposed, the first person to be punished by the sect is the dean of the County Zongwu Academy. He is the first responsible person.，”
Wu Yuan listened and felt that it made some sense..
“Could it be that he is the eldest son of the Xu family? Wu Qiming suddenly thought: "If you think about it carefully, it seems like his style.”
“The eldest son of the Xu family? "Wu Yuan showed a trace of doubt..
“You have been in the martial arts academy before, so it is normal that you have never heard of it." Wu Qiming looked at Wu Yuan: "General Xu has six sons, except for the sixth son Xu Yuanhan, the rest are mediocre in martial arts..”
“His eldest son, named 'Xu Yuanjie', is the legitimate son of his first wife. He is very old and is very valued. He controls a large amount of resources in the Xu family and leaves some chores to him. He is very famous among the upper class society in Licheng..”
“Or it may be because when he was young, General Xu had not yet grown up, he suffered a lot, and in many aspects he did not have the magnanimity of a luxurious family," Wu Qiming said..
Obviously, Wu Qiming knows this 'Xu Yuanjie' very well.
“Generous bearing? "Wu Yuan pondered these four words..
“In short, it is stingy." Wu Qiming lay on the bed and said slowly: "This Xu Yuanjie knows the pain of the family's rise, so he pays great attention to petty profits, is reluctant to give up money, and rarely sees the overall situation..”
“But how can a wealthy family behave like a small family?？”
“Some things that should be given up, even if it hurts, must be given up at the critical moment." Wu Qiming solemnly said: "Otherwise, it will be a small loss but a big loss..”
“Wu Yuan.”
Wu Qiming looked at Wu Yuan and said with emotion: "In this regard, you actually think more thoroughly than I do..”
He remembered Wu Yuan's direct promise to General Xu to give up the competition..
A model of 'willingness'.
If it were Wu Qiming himself, he asked himself, he might not be able to be so decisive.
“The patriarch is overly praised." Wu Yuan smiled..
decisive? When I first agreed to General Xu's request, I had what I wanted in my heart..
Without those five thousand taels of silver, I would not have made such rapid progress..
“According to what the patriarch said, the Liehu Gang is behind the Xu Mansion, and it is really possible that it was Xu Yuanjie's handiwork." Wu Yuan said: "Since he controls a lot of power in the Xu Mansion, he can naturally influence the Liehu Gang..”
Between the two of them, they spoke.
A complete clue has been sketched.
“Wu Yuan, whether it was Xu Yuanjie’s instigation or not, the main culprit in this matter is the Xu Mansion.” Wu Qiming said solemnly to Wu Yuan: “Although the Liehu Gang was defeated, I hope you will not forget the lives of the eight clan members..”
“I understand." Wu Yuan nodded..
He had directly killed the Liehu Gang before, ruthlessly and mercilessly. One of the important reasons was that he saw the corpses of his clan members with his own eyes..
I didn’t know about Xu Mansion before..
Now I understand the cause, and I always look for opportunities to retaliate.！
“Of course, don't worry, the Xu family is powerful and we cannot provoke it right now." Wu Qiming said, "I didn't want to tell you, but your Uncle Long and Uncle Dongyao said that you already have the strength to be a martial artist? "Yes." Wu Yuan nodded..
“You have the strength of a martial arts master now. You are only fourteen years old. It will be easy for you to become a first-rate master in the future. There is hope for you to become a second-rate master or even a first-rate master." Wu Qiming looked at Wu Yuan expectantly..
“By then, when you become a senior member of the sect, it’s time to take revenge..”
“Now, only you and me can know about this matter, and no one else can be told." Wu Qiming said..
“Patriarch, don't worry, I understand in my heart." Wu Yuan nodded: "I will not be reckless until I have enough strength..”
Wu Qiming nodded.
He is at ease with Wu Yuan and is very stable..
And I told Wu Yuan this matter after careful consideration, hoping that it would become the motivation for Wu Yuan to practice..
If you have no motivation, you will slack off..
“patriarch.”
Wu Yuan said: "Just now, why did the county guard's guard leader 'Meng Qiang' come to my Wu Mansion? Logically speaking, even if he was investigating the Liehu Gang, he wouldn't come..”
Meng Qiang is a second-rate master.
With his great strength, neither the county magistrate nor the county lieutenant dare to look down upon him, and the county guards will respect him immensely..
If it's not important, I won't send him..
“Haha, Meng Qiang is here on behalf of the county guard." Wu Qiming showed a trace of ridicule on his face: "He wants us to act as witnesses and report to the sect that General Xu used power to suppress others and asked you to cheat in the martial arts competition..”
“Will the sect believe it? "Wu Yuan frowned.
“In just over three months, your strength has gone from being a new warrior to almost a martial artist. The news has spread, and you also won the first place in the martial arts competition." Wu Qiming said: "Even if the sect doesn't believe it, He will not ignore it and will definitely send someone to investigate. Even if nothing is found, it will be enough to make General Xu very anxious..”
“And this is probably just a plan by the county governor..”
“The Liehu Gang collapsed and General Xu lost an arm. The county guard may want to take advantage of this situation to defeat him in one fell swoop," Wu Qiming said..
Wu Yuan listens.
He doesn't quite understand these machinations, but he can understand the rationale behind them..
“The patriarch agrees? "Wu Yuandao.
“Didn't agree." Wu Qiming shook his head and said: "Don't say we don't have clear evidence. Even if we do, what can we do?？”
“If it is proven that General Xu manipulated the martial arts competition, I, the Wu family, also belong to the category of "dedicated crimes and meritorious services". Could it be that there are still benefits?？”
“Meng Qiang promised that the county governor would protect us, but it really got to that point. Whether he would protect us or not was all decided by the county governor..”
“Besides, it would be better if General Xu was completely defeated. What if he was not defeated?？”
“General Xu takes revenge, we can handle it？”
“And if you refuse the county magistrate and refuse to admit it, the magistrate will most likely only suspect that Da Bi is fake, and will not fight us desperately. At most, he will not like us..”
“Choose the lesser of two advantages and disadvantages.”
“My Wu family is currently weak and cannot be offended by anyone. When you, Wu Yuan, become stronger, and when my Wu family becomes stronger, it will not be too late to seek justice..”
“Remember, you never cheated in the martial arts competition." Wu Qiming saw all this thoroughly and told Wu Yuan in detail.
“I understand that in the martial arts competition, my skills were inferior to others and I lost to Liu Ruyan." Wu Yuandao.
Let the past go.
Reversing the verdict is causing trouble for yourself.
“Your strength has advanced so quickly and your talent is astonishing. It was the Wu family that delayed you. Otherwise, if you had joined Yunwu Hall early, your strength would have improved even more rapidly." Wu Qiming looked at Wu Yuan with regret..
“Clan leader, the clan has treated me well enough." Wu Yuandao.
“No！”
Wu Qiming shook his head: "Just because I treat you well doesn't mean I'm really good. It's because we delayed you. I'm going to ask Mr. Liu to study with the main sect. Soon, the main sect will send someone to pick you up from the city..”
“The main sect? "Wu Yuan was stunned..
The Wu family in Licheng is just a branch of the Wu family in Nanmeng..
And it is a relatively weak branch.
“Although my Wu family is not a big family in Nanmeng, it is still a bit stronger than the 'Luo family'. After going to Nanmeng Mansion, with the full support of the main sect, you will grow faster and enter the Yunwu Palace next year. The hope of winning the title of 'No. 1 in the Four Prefectures' will be greater." Wu Qiming looked at Wu Yuan and sighed: "Your genealogy will also directly enter the main sect..”
“patriarch！”
Wu Yuan frowned and said in a low voice: "I will only stay in Licheng, and my genealogy will only stay with the Wu family in Licheng, and I won't go anywhere.".”
