Family practice: all members of the villain

Chapter 128
In the quiet room, Hou Yuxiao sat in the first place, with Hou Yucheng and Hou Yuling on the left, and Hou Yujie and Hou Yuduan on the right.

Hou Yuxiao looked around and paused for three breaths on Hou Yucheng, Hou Yuling, and Hou Yujie respectively. He felt that the three of them had now reached the evil gathering stage, and a hint of relief appeared on his face.

Finally, when his eyes came to Old Fifth Hou Yuduan, Hou Yuxiao stayed there for about ten breaths before finally sighing slightly and looking back.

Since the Zhaoyang Rebellion ended last year, the number of family affairs has increased. The second, third, fourth, and fifth elders have taken turns going to the county town to handle family affairs. Including himself, he also spent nearly three months away from home doing things.

The last time the five of them got together like this was when the family was promoted to the third level.

However, the Hou family is no longer the former whose sphere of influence only has one street, and their influence is limited to a small clan in Zhaoyang County. They all have many tasks, and Hou Yuxiao will certainly not bring them together if nothing happens.

It was already getting dark when this happened, but Hou Yuxiao became more and more energetic and the ideas in his mind became clearer.

The four of them saw his expression and knew that he had something important to say, so they all waited in silence for him to speak. The five of them sat in silence for a hundred breaths before Hou Yuxiao spoke with a calm expression.

"I want to hear your opinions on the Blood Demon thing, one by one."

Hearing Hou Yuxiao's question, the four people had different expressions.

Hou Yucheng's expression didn't change much, and he obviously didn't have many ideas; Hou Yuling nodded slightly and fell into thinking; Hou Yujie obviously had ideas in his mind, but he didn't speak directly.

As for Hou Yuduan, after Hou Yuxiao asked this question, he immediately turned his attention to him. His face was the most complicated, and his expression was full of tangles. It was obvious that there were thousands of thoughts in his mind.

"There are many masters in the county now, and the Holy Cult has been prepared for it. I think the defeat of the Blood Demon will be a matter of time. We should break up with her as soon as possible. Otherwise, if others find out that our family has colluded with the demon, my Hou family will be in catastrophe."

Although Hou Yucheng's words were relatively simple, they were not ambiguous at all, and they made sense. Hou Yuxiao nodded slightly, and then Hou Yuling spoke next.

"My second brother and I have similar ideas. The Blood Demon's defeat is definitely inevitable, but if we want to end the relationship with her so quickly, I'm afraid it won't be so easy to succeed.

If it fails and offends her, the consequences will be serious.

Even if it succeeds, what happens next?We can only follow the Rakshasa Holy Cult and listen to the orders of the county. Ding Dian's attitude towards us is still very bad. If he takes advantage of the Blood Demon Rebellion and lets the family act as cannon fodder, what will we do then?
Therefore, I think that if I want to cut off contact with the Blood Demon, I must at least find a backer first, not only to guard against the Blood Demon, but also to guard against the county, especially Ding Dian and the others. "

Hou Yuling's thoughts were obviously deeper than those of Hou Yucheng.

The third person to speak was Hou Yujie.

"I have a different opinion. Taking the initiative to cut off contact with the Gorefiend, I'm afraid we can't do it with our current strength! It's useless to find another backer. Looking at Tongling, we can't find such a backer at all! "

Hou Yujie's words immediately woke up Hou Yuling. She lowered her head and pondered for a moment, then understood immediately and nodded lightly.

With the current strength of the Hou family, if they really dare to take the initiative to break away from the blood demon, it will be a recipe for death. Regardless of success or failure, they will incur the thunderous wrath of the red girl, and they cannot withstand it.

As she happened to say, find a backer to protect the family.

So in the county, who can protect them from the red girl at present?
The answer is, no one!

At midnight last night, Miss Hong's men killed Yan Sannu in front of the five masters and the warden of the County Cheng Mansion. Although they don't know what their considerations were, this at least shows that Miss Hong is here. So far, they are basically the strongest team in the county.

"So I think that since we don't have the strength, we don't need to break off the relationship with Miss Hong. What she wants right now is that we can help her attract warriors to Shilipo in four days. We can do our best to do it.

Of course, as the second brother and third sister said, the Blood Demon will eventually be defeated, and I deeply agree with this, but in my opinion, when she loses is the key to us! "

Hou Yujie's words immediately aroused the thinking of several other people, including Hou Yuduan who was standing aside, and his expression became more complicated.

"According to what Lao Wu just said, the five masters in the county currently have evil intentions. The Holy Dynasty of Yu and Haoran Academy do not want Xuzhou to succeed, Leiyin Temple is trying to win over the Purple Qing Sect, and they are probably also coveting Yongzhou and the Snow Mountain. The Buddha Sect and Leiyin Temple are enemies, and I don’t know what their purpose is.

In short, it would be extremely difficult for this group of people to really work together to deal with the Blood Demon, not to mention that there are people from Xuzhou in the dark, waiting for the Blood Demon to mess up Tongling and come up to take a bite at any time.

At present, the only one who really wants to deal with the Gorefiend is the Raksha Sacred Cult. Under such a premise, when and how the Gorefiend will be defeated, I'm afraid no one can say clearly. "

After Hou Yujie finished speaking, he paused and continued to speak.

"If she can withstand the five masters and Master Fanyin this time, then Xuzhou will definitely take action under the pretext of slaying demons. But on the contrary, if she cannot withstand these people and is directly killed, Xuzhou may Will die down.

If it is the former, Tongling may usher in an attack from Xuzhou. After all, they have been planning this for more than a year. It is foreseeable that once they take action, it will definitely be thunderous; on the contrary, if it is the latter, the Blood Demon will be destroyed directly. Kill, let’s not talk about others, just talk about the quasi-holy land Leiyin Temple, will they leave so honestly! "

Hou Yuxiao's originally closed eyes opened immediately after hearing these words, and asked softly: "Do you want to say that no matter what the outcome is, Tongling will be in chaos next, or even change its owner?"

Hou Yujie nodded heavily, and said with a solemn look in his eyes: "Of course, although the Rakshasa Holy Cult is strong, it is almost impossible to face the five holy places, plus a quasi-holy place at the same time, and still want to protect Tongling!"

Haoran Holy Sect, Ziqing Holy Sect, Ten Thousand Swords Holy Sect, White Deer Academy, Dayu Holy Dynasty, plus the most powerful heaven-level force Leiyin Temple, the five holy places plus a quasi-holy place, Hou Yujie's words suddenly hit the point. Go up, Hou Yuxiao nodded lightly.

"Brother, from last year's Zhaoyang Rebellion, we can see that the current internal situation within the Rakshasa Holy Cult must be very bad.

The Holy Cult General Altar must be aware of the situation in Tongling. Even though they knew that people from the Five Holy Lands were coming, they only sent one Sanskrit Master and did not see any allies coming to help. This means that the Holy Cult is not only helpless now. People are available, and there is not even a magic alliance. The situation is probably worse than we thought!
The incident of the Blood Demon was obviously a trigger, and more importantly, the subsequent siege of Tongling and even the Rakshasa Holy Cult by major holy places. Let’s not talk about it far, let’s just say that once Tongling changes hands, our Hou family will How to deal with yourself?
It would be fine if it were taken over by other holy places, but if it was taken over by Xuzhou, then..."

Hou Yujie didn't say any more because there was no need to say anything more.

Not counting Hou Yuxiao's murder of Gu Chenfeng, just looking at the Zhaoyang Rebellion last year, once Xuzhou takes over Tongling, the Hou family will definitely die in an ugly way.

"So, you think that before the defeat of the Blood Demon, we don't have to rush to distance ourselves from each other to avoid retaliation. We can wait and see how the situation develops.
At the same time, the family should secretly surrender to another holy place to avoid being passive in the subsequent battle for Tongling.

If the bet succeeds and the holy land where we surrendered is taken over by Tongling, then Zhaoyang will still be ours. Even if the bet fails and Tongling changes owners and without the Rakshasa Holy Cult, we can still have a backer. Is that what you mean? ? "

This sentence hit his heart almost directly. Hou Yujie turned around and saw Hou Yuxiao's expression. He immediately knew that his elder brother had already seen his intention and nodded heavily.

Hou Yuxiao breathed a sigh of relief. In fact, the things Hou Yujie said were not complicated. They were just thinking more deeply about the family's situation and direction. As the head of the family, it was his obligation and instinct to think about these things.

In the final analysis, the Blood Demon incident has nothing to do with the Hou family. The only thing Hou Yuxiao deserves to be concerned about is the situation in Tongling County after the Blood Demon Rebellion. This is a major event related to the future development of the family.

Hou Yuxiao pondered for a while and did not speak. He just cast his eyes on Hou Yuduan for the last time. Although the fourth child's thoughts were almost the same as his, he still wanted to hear what the fifth child would say.

Speaking of which, they just kept talking about the defeat of the Blood Demon, but they were all in front of Hou Yuduan, but Hou Yuduan didn't even refute, he just sat there without saying a word.

Hou Yuxiao didn't know how far the relationship between Lao Wu and Hong girl had progressed, but he always believed that Hou Yuduan must know what he was doing. After all, Hou Yuduan was definitely the best among the five of them in terms of talent and IQ since he was a child. Among them, the strongest one.

Just now, Hou Yuduan did not refute their statement that the Blood Demon would definitely be defeated. He had already stated that he had seen it clearly from the beginning to the end.

The four brothers and sisters were all staring at him. Hou Yuduan had naturally noticed it for a long time. He looked up at Hou Yuxiao, with a hint of hesitation, and said: "Brother, Miss Hong has no ill intentions towards us, and she has not been in Zhao during this period." Yang has done evil and given us many things, so the family... there is no need to deal with her."

As soon as he finished speaking, the whole room fell silent. All four pairs of eyes were fixed on Hou Yuduan, but no one spoke for a long time.

After a long time, Hou Yuxiao spoke with a faint expression.

"Lao Wu, no one said that we should deal with her, but her defeat is doomed, and you know this yourself, right?"

A flash of pain suddenly flashed across Hou Yuduan's face. He hesitated for a long time before he nodded heavily, truly agreeing with the statement that just made him feel extremely harsh.

The four of them were paying attention to the change in Hou Yuduan's expression. Seeing the pain on his face, a heavy look flashed across everyone's faces, including Hou Yuxiao.

Obviously, they all underestimated the relationship between Lao Wu and Hong girl!

Hou Yuduan didn't speak, and the four of them didn't say anything. He remained silent for more than a hundred breaths. It seemed that he had finally adjusted his mood. He took a deep breath before slowly speaking to the four of them.

"What Fourth Brother just said is pretty much the same. Tongling is very likely to change ownership after this incident, but there are still many variables before the end.

Will the Yongzhou General Forum send experts over? What is Xuzhou's plan? There are other three holy places, as well as Leiyin Temple who wants to intervene in Yongzhou. What plans have they made? There are even other plans that have not yet appeared. It is still unknown whether the four holy places will send people to participate in the future!
Even if we have to place a bet, we should wait until the situation becomes clearer, but the fourth brother is right about one thing, that is to find the backer of the next Holy Land in advance. This is very crucial for the family's next step! "

After all, he is a scholar, and he immediately grasped the pain point. After listening to Lao Wu's addition, Hou Yuxiao nodded slightly and said: "Looking is not the same as betting. If the Rakshasa Holy Sect has any back-ups, Tongling did not change hands in the end. Last year Zhao During the Yang Rebellion, we already left an impression on Sikong Yue as a snake and a rat. If we are caught and whipped if something like this happens again this time, and the Holy Cult blames us, we will not reap the rewards!"

"Brother is right. In Xuzhou, there are Ten Thousand Swords Saint Sect and White Deer Academy. We definitely cannot consider them. Then the only objects we are looking for are those five masters. Leiyin Temple and Daxue Mountain Buddhist Sect do not need to be considered. So, There are only three schools left: Haoran Holy Sect, Dayu Holy Dynasty, and Ziqing Holy Sect.

Regardless of whether good or evil, they are both in the Holy Land, so they are wary of each other. In this case, we have almost no other choice, only the Purple Qing Holy Sect family! "

This insightful analysis made Hou Yuxiao suddenly enlightened. At the same time, when he looked at his fifth child, the admiration in his eyes became more intense.

"What Lao Wu said is right. What we are worried about is nothing more than the question of where the family will go after Tongling changes hands. Under the current situation where we cannot clearly see the situation, we can only judge based on who has the greatest determination to seize Tongling.

The three holy places are far away from Yongzhou, and there are other holy places in between. Their biggest demand is to prevent Xuzhou from seizing Tongling.

But Ziqing Shengsong is different from the other two families. He and Leiyin Temple are on the same side.

Zen Master Yuankong traveled thousands of miles to Jiaozhou to invite Mo Xuzi, which shows Leiyin Temple's interest in Tongling. Considering the current situation of the Rakshasa Holy Religion being the most declining among the top ten holy places, Leiyin Temple's visit to Tongling at this time is afraid. The plot is bigger!
The Three Holy Lands don't want Xuzhou's plan to get involved in Yongzhou to succeed, and for the same reason they don't want the other party to succeed. In this way, Leiyin Temple has the greatest possibility of obtaining Tongling, and the strongest determination!
As the backing of Leiyin Temple, the Purple Qing Holy Sect will of course spare no effort to help him. After all, Leiyin Temple cannot become a holy land with just one Tongling, but it can make Leiyin Temple owe them a big favor.

In this way, the relationship between Ziqing Holy Sect and Leiyin Temple is the most stable, and this side is the most likely to win, both in terms of strength and cooperation logic. "

Hou Yuxiao's words explained all the logic behind their choice of Ziqing Holy Sect, and the four of them, including Hou Yuduan, soon understood.

"So, on the surface, we still wait and see what happens, and choose which side to join based on the subsequent developments. But secretly, we can make friends with the Purple Qing Holy Sect first to give ourselves a guarantee, but we must do it more covertly. We can’t let the Holy Cult notice it!”

After hearing Hou Yuduan's reminder, Hou Yuxiao nodded, and the appearance of the Taoist nun Zhao Qingxue in white flashed in his mind.

Being friends with the Purple Qing Holy Sect, he still has some innate advantages...

The discussion between the five people basically ended here. Hou Yuxiao looked at his three brothers and one sister, with a hint of pride in his eyes.

It is not modest to say that among the five Hou brothers and sisters, none of them are simple characters. This is not only reflected in their cultivation talents, but also in their strategic talents. Even the second eldest Hou Yucheng, who seems to be the most careless, has his own little calculations.

Of course, Lao Wu Hou Yu Duan is very rare in this regard, as can be seen from what he just said.

Now that the discussion was over, the four of them stopped staying. After bidding farewell to Hou Yuxiao one by one, they all walked out of the quiet room.

When the second, third, and fourth eldest children left, Hou Yuxiao just nodded. Only when the fifth eldest brother, Hou Yuduan, walked to the door and was about to leave, looking at his back, Hou Yuxiao spoke quietly.

"Lao Wu, Miss Hong is a demon, and she is a demon stained with a lot of blood. It is impossible for the two of you to have anything to do with each other. You have read so many sages' books, and you should understand the principle that humans and demons have different paths. You don't need to remind you, right? "

Hou Yuduan's back was shaken, and he stayed at the door for three breaths before continuing to walk out.

"I know, brother!"

Sensing the helplessness in Lao Wu's tone, Hou Yuxiao felt relieved, but still sighed slightly, and there was a hint of complexity in his eyes.
