Family practice: all members of the villain

Chapter 215 Still a Holy Land!
"It's not easy for Shen Gufan to be so patient!"

On the official road to the east of Jinling County, the Hou family's army, which stretched for nearly two miles, was slowly returning towards Tongling in Wanyang. Hou Yujie and Hou Yuduan rode at the forefront.

Hearing Hou Yujie's evaluation of Shen Gufan, Hou Yuduan nodded and said softly: "With Shen's status in Jinling County, and his own cultivation as a great master of the Four Realms, he can still keep his composure after being so humiliated. , I’m afraid that he will see through our deliberate provocation!”

Hou Yujie nodded. Of course he would not offend Shen Gufan for no reason and bring in such a powerful enemy of the Shen family to the family. The provocation was what he and Lao Wu had discussed and planned.

If Shen Gufan didn't hold back just now and attacked them, regardless of whether they can beat them or not, at least the Hou's army can justifiably stay in Jinling County and not leave. , or you can delay it later.

This is their purpose!
The Xiongyun Gang was so cooperative during the trip to Fucheng. It was obvious that someone had greeted them in advance. At this juncture, there should be no one else but the masters of the Rakshasa Holy Cult who could make Wan Renjue cooperate like this, and there was a high probability that it would be Zhan Taiqing, after all, she was the one commanding the side of the Holy Cult in this war.

Although the more Zhan Taiqing behaves like this, the more it means that she values ​​the Hou family, but this kind of respect is not a good thing at the moment. After all, once the Hou family sends troops, it will be officially involved in the war between the two states. At most, it is The Hou family, who could only be considered a second-rate force, would certainly try not to get involved if they could.

That's why the two of them insulted Shen Gufan in Jinwu Mountain, hoping to anger the Shen family and make them attack them, just in time to create an excuse not to join the war. I wonder if Hou Yujie overacted, but Shen Gufan actually Saw it through.

"It seems that my acting skills still need to be refined!"

Hearing Hou Yujie's self-blame, Hou Yuduan shook his head and said: "We only have so many people, and we are still on their territory. With Shen Gufan's status and strength, even if he finds out that we are deliberately humiliating the Shen family, he will completely There is no need to be patient.

Being able to hold back can only show that he not only knows that we did it on purpose, but also sensed our intentions. Once he makes a move, he fulfills my Hou family's wish not to send troops. He wants to send troops on our behalf. This is why he resists not taking action on us. "

Having said this, Hou Yuduan paused for a moment, looked back at Jinling County, and said in a solemn tone: "Ms. Shen, and Shen Gufan, are not easy. Tongling is adjacent to them, so we have to be more careful in the future!"

Hou Yujie nodded, and looked back in the direction of Jinwu Mountain, with a hint of pain in his face, and said: "It's a pity. Zhu has been doing assassination for so many years, so I'm afraid there is a lot of wealth in Jinwu Mountain. We are here." Let’s go, it’s already cheaper than Zhou Hong.”

"This is also necessary. If Zhou Hong hadn't come forward, Shen Gufan wouldn't have just sat back and watched us destroy the Zhu family. But... after taking those things from the Zhu family, we have to have the Flower of Life!"

When Hou Yuduan said the last sentence, a faint light flashed in his eyes.

As he said, Shen Gufan is not a simple character. He knows that the Hou family is now under the orders of the Holy Cult and is afraid of getting burned, so he does not offend them. But Zhou Hong does not. Zhou Hong plays a big role in destroying the Zhu family this time. Small, and in the end the two of them decided to leave all the Zhu family's wealth in Jinwu Mountain to Zhou Hong. Zhou Hong happily led people in to search for it. All this was seen by Shen Gufan!
This can be regarded as the thunder they laid for Zhou Hong. Of course, Zhou Hong has the Holy Cult as his backing, and it is not easy for Shen Gufan to attack him so easily. But at least it is foreseeable that these two people, From now on, there will definitely be more fierce fighting in Jinling County.

Tongling, Wanyang, Longxiang, and Yangping are the four prefectures of Hexi Prefecture that will be established soon. If a stable Hexi Prefecture is the core interest of the Hou family, then the instability of surrounding areas like Jinling County is also the Hou family's joy. See what happens.

Instability means chaos, and chaos often means weakness. Only weakness can the Hou family be profitable...

Hou Yuduan remembered what his elder brother Hou Yuxiao had said to him before, took a deep breath, and his eyes gradually became firm.

"Fourth Master, Fifth Master, what should we do with these two women?"

When Hou Yujie and Hou Yuduan were about to continue talking, Hou Fei suddenly pulled a horse over. There were two tied women on the horse. It was the Zhu family who accidentally broke into the Hou Mansion in Wanyang County. Two female killers, Zhu Qing and Zhu Lan.

The two sisters looked at the Hou brothers with fear in their eyes. After all, they had witnessed what just happened on Jinwu Mountain with their own eyes.

On the way from Wanyang County, the two sisters thought that the two Hou brothers were too arrogant and would definitely suffer when they arrived in Jinling County. They themselves were Zhu's killers and knew how powerful the Zhu family was. Because of this , Hou's killing spree on Jinwu Mountain just now caused a huge impact on the hearts of the two of them.

Zhu Qing looked around and looked at Hou's people. Remembering that Zhu was helpless in the hands of these people, the horror in his eyes was still strong.

Hou Fei personally escorted them in front of them all the way. They didn't even know that the Hou family had these three thousand troops and five hundred warriors from the Hou clan. At this moment, they felt the powerful energy and blood of thousands of Kaishen warriors around them. As well as dozens of Gang Qi realm warriors, even though Zhu Qing had cultivated in the Evil Gathering Stage, he could not help but feel a little frightened in his heart.

"To cut the grass, we need to get rid of the roots. These two are also members of the Zhu family, so just kill them!"

Hou Yujie's expression was cold and he didn't hesitate at all.

When Zhu Qing heard this, there was a hint of fear on his face. When he saw Hou Fei next to him, he was about to take action. He immediately opened his mouth and begged Hou Yujie loudly for mercy.

"Young master, please forgive me. Although our surname is Zhu, we sisters only returned to the family to serve in the family later. We have no feelings for the Zhu family. From now on, we two sisters have been slaves and maids under the master's knees. We only ask for his mercy." One life for us.”

Hou Yujie did not respond, but continued to gesture towards Hou Fei, while Hou Yuduan next to him looked down at the two sisters, with a look of confusion on his face. After shaking his head to stop Hou Fei, he asked the two sisters: "I have no feelings for Zhu." , tell me in detail, if this is really the case, I might as well spare your lives!"

Only then did Zhu Qing start to talk about the origins of his two sisters in detail. Among them, he focused on explaining the Zhu family's training model for the clan members, explaining that he really didn't have deep feelings for the family and would not treat him because of what happened on Jinwu Mountain. Hou felt resentful.

Hou Yujie looked noncommittal at the side. He didn't even fully listen to Zhu Qing's words. He just wondered why Hou Yuduan didn't kill these two people. If it were anyone else, even his eldest brother Hou Yuxiao, he might guess whether he was right. The two sisters had some lust, but Hou Yuduan knew it was impossible.

He continued to watch Hou Yuduan talking to the two of them, wanting to see what he was going to do.

"So, you grew up with your father, Zhu Wulei, and you really don't have any feelings for the Zhu family. You went to Wanyang County to complete Fang Jinghong's order to kill Jinling in order to find out about your father, Zhu Wulei. ?”

"That's right, my father took an assassination order and went to Jianye Mansion. There was no news at all. My sister and I had no choice but to break into the Hou Mansion!" Seeing that her sister had been talking, Zhu Lan couldn't bear it. Hou Yuduan couldn't help but answer.

Hou Yuduan looked down at the two sisters, as if he was trying to determine the credibility of their words. After looking for a while, he turned to Hou Yujie and said: "Fourth brother, these two don't seem to be lying. Two people who have cultivated in the Jusha period It would be a pity to kill a warrior like this!"

"It is indeed a pity, but if these two people have evil intentions and join the clan, they might cause some trouble." Hou Yujie obviously still didn't believe them. After finishing speaking, he thought for a moment before continuing: "However, since you If you open your mouth, then do what you want, two warriors in the Jusha stage can't make any big waves!"

Zhu Qing and Zhu Lan looked at Hou Yuduan nervously. They knew that since Hou Yujie didn't believe them, the kind and elegant Hou Yuduan in front of them would become the one who decided their life or death.

"Hou Fei, loosen their bonds!"

Hou Yuduan said a word, and the two of them finally let go of their hanging hearts.

However, after Hou Fei untied the two of them, Hou Yuduan glanced at Hou Yujie next to him and signaled to the two of them: "Fourth brother hasn't said I won't kill you yet. If you want to live, beg him more. Don't you want to save your father?" Well, maybe when Fourth Brother is in a better mood one day, he might help you rescue your father..."

After hearing these words, the two sisters suddenly looked stunned. They looked up at Hou Yujie in front of them, with a hint of hope in their expressions.

"Zhu Qing, meet the Fourth Young Master!"

"Zhu Lan, meet the Fourth Young Master!"

Hou Yujie saw the two women kneeling directly in front of him, then looked back at Hou Yuduan with a completely confused expression. He thought Hou Yuduan was going to take the two maids, but he never expected that Hou Yuduan would dump them directly to him.

"Fifth, you..."

Before he finished speaking, Hou Yuduan had already galloped forward on his horse, leaving only Hou Yujie with an unhappy face, looking down at the two sisters Zhu Qing and Zhu Lan, with a hint of helplessness in his expression.

"Get up. As long as you work for me, Mr. Hou, honestly, it is not impossible to help you rescue your father if there is a chance in the future."

"Thank you sir!"

Zhu Qing and Zhu Lan stood up. Upon seeing this, Hou Fei assigned a war horse to each of them. After the two got on their horses, they followed Hou Yujie attentively. They knew that in the current situation, it was right for them to ask Hou Yujie to help save their father. It's impossible, but as long as they can do their best for the Hou family, gain Hou Yujie's trust, and use the Hou family's strength to help them find their father in Jianye Mansion, it won't be difficult.

Not only could they save a life, but they also saw the hope of saving their father. The two sisters were naturally in a good mood at the moment, and followed the Hou family and others on the official road back to Wanyang County.

………………

September 1322, [-] in the New Yu Calendar

Hou Yujie, Hou Yuduan and his party rushed back to Wanyang County one day in advance. Hou Yuxiao, who had received the news in advance, was waiting for them at the gate of the house early.

"That's a war horse. As expected, Kong Wu is powerful. I don't think the blood on this horse is weaker than a fifth-level martial artist. No, the hundred war horses in front of me even feel that they are all seventh-level warriors." The blood level is up!”

"As soon as I entered the city gate, I heard what Fourth Master said. The first hundred horses are high-grade war horses, each priced as high as 5000 taels of silver. The five hundred horses behind are fine-bred war horses, only costing 500 taels of silver. There is a price difference. So big, there is naturally a gap in strength."

"Thirty-five thousand taels, so expensive?"

"This war horse can only be controlled by a tenth-level warrior. It is not simple in itself."

"Tsk, tsk, I have to practice quickly. When the cultivation level is reached, the clan will also allocate a war horse to us, and then we will truly be proud of our ancestors!"

………………

At the gate of the Hou's Mansion in Wanyang County, the warriors of the Hou family looked at the black team led by Hou Yujie and Hou Yuduan, and all their eyes were focused on the six hundred war horses. People who walk in the rivers and lakes have a natural love for these things.

The warriors of the Zhaoyang Army in the clan directly came up to them, patting their horses left and right, and their eyes almost glowed green. Hou Yucheng, the commander of the Zhaoyang Army, even more directly He got on a high-grade war horse and rode it around the door of the mansion, his face full of excitement, and he obviously couldn't put it down.

"Brother, you have lived up to your mission. One hundred top grade, five hundred fine breeds, a total of six hundred war horses, as well as a month's supply of blood evil grass given by the Xiongyun Gang, Fan Pinzhen and other swords and crossbows, a total of thirty thousand pieces. There are a total of [-] pieces of precious armors such as , Fan and others, and all three items have been brought back.

The total price of this batch of materials is 950 million taels. We have negotiated with the Xiongyun Gang and paid 2000 million in advance, and the remaining balance will be paid before June next year. "

Hou Yuxiao, led by Hou Yujie and Hou Yuduan, checked all the supplies on the carriage one by one. When he heard the prices mentioned by the two men, he showed a slightly painful expression. However, seeing so many supplies piled in front of him, he was generally very satisfied.

"Brother, Xiongyun Gang..."

"Okay, let's ask everyone to move their things in first, and we'll talk more about it when we get home!"

Seeing that Hou Yuduan was about to continue talking about you in Fucheng, Hou Yuxiao raised his hand slightly to stop him. Just as he said that someone would move the things in, the second son Hou Yucheng, who had already tested the war horse and returned, immediately answered him with excitement.

"Brother, leave this place to me!"

Seeing him happily commanding the Zhaoyang soldiers and horses, transporting supplies to the mansion one by one, Hou Yuxiao nodded, and led Hou Yujie and Hou Yuduan to the main hall of the mansion.

By the time they reached the main hall, Hou Yuduan had almost explained everything that happened along the way. After Hou Yuxiao signaled the two of them to sit down, he also sat on the main seat and looked slightly sideways at Zhu Qingzhu, who was standing behind Hou Yujie. Lan glanced at each other, lowered their heads and pondered for a moment.

"You guessed it right. Someone from the Rakshasa Holy Cult has already greeted Wan Renjue from the Xiongyun Gang. That's why your trip went so smoothly. As for Shen Gufan, he can guess your intention just by looking at clues. He is considered a smart man, so he should be careful in the future, but don’t worry too much. Shen Gufan did not dare to resist after being humiliated like this. Even if he was worried that Shen would get burned, it proves that this person is timid and somewhat smart. It's just some cleverness.

If you bow your head in front of me, Mr. Hou, this time, you are destined to bow your head every time in the future! "

Hou Yuduan didn't pay much attention to the following words, but he understood the meaning immediately and asked, "How do you know that people from the Rakshasa Holy Cult have greeted Wan Renjue? Could it be..."

A shadow flashed in Hou Yuxiao's eyes, and he nodded and said: "Less than a quarter of an hour ago, Zhan Taiqing's people came to urge our [-] troops to set off quickly!"

Hou Yuduan's expression changed after hearing this. A quarter of an hour ago, when they had just arrived at the gate of Wanyang County, someone came to notify them as soon as they arrived. Doesn't this mean that every move in Wanyang County's Hou Mansion was made by Zhan Taiqing? It's all crystal clear.

"Not only Wanyang County, they should know everything that happened along the way, including the destruction of the Zhu clan in Jinling County and Jinwu Mountain."

Hou Yuxiao's tone was a little heavy. After finishing speaking, he paused for a moment, then said with a solemn expression and a low voice: "After all, it is still a holy land!"
