Family practice: all members of the villain

Chapter 294 I didn’t bring the bride price [please support]

The distinguished guest named Hou, plus what Master Mo Xuzi said two days ago.

Zhao Qingxue can already be sure that the person who came is Hou Yuxiao, because the master knows everything about her, and the recent movements in Hexi and East Rivers have been under the eyes of Ziqing Sacred Sect. As Mo Xuzi's beloved disciple, Zhao Qingxue also knows about it of.

Although he knew very well in his heart, why did he propose marriage at this time!
Zhao Qingxue still couldn't help but feel a little excited, and there was an uncontrollable smile on the corner of her mouth, she quickened her pace unknowingly, and the scenes of meeting Hou Yuxiao several times also appeared in her mind.

When Tong Tianhe fought for the first time, she didn't know that it was Hou Yuxiao, she just thought it was a powerful character named Fang Jinghong;

The second time was in Wanyang County. This time she found out the identity of "Fang Jinghong" and took him with several masters from the righteous path to Tongling to slay demons.

The fate between the two also started at this time.

As a Taoist, she certainly believes in destiny.

But three years ago, when Master Mo Xuzi predicted his fate.

Her first reaction was still disbelief.

When I arrived in Xuzhou, the first man I met must have the character "xiao" in his name.

And that man will be his love disaster.

This sounds a bit far-fetched!
Even when she arrived in Zhaoyang later and found out that Ren Feng, Fang Jinghong, and Hou Yuxiao were the same person, and knew that her master's prediction was right, she didn't think that Hou Yuxiao would become her love disaster. After all, the two of them had always known each other. Don't know each other.

But when Hou Yuxiao rescued her from Gu Chenfeng and told her bluntly about the life-and-death love Gu, and also reminded her that she might have some feelings that she shouldn't have, she admitted that at that moment, she might have felt a little... Angry, but it must be said that her inner denial of Master's prophecy had begun to waver.

But she still deliberately avoided Hou Yuxiao, wanting to prove her master's guess wrong.

But the third time, that is, the last time, the matter of Yunmeng County.

Hou Yuxiao, who shouldn't have appeared, saved herself from Hou Zhan.

Zhao Qingxue could disbelieve the master's prophecy, but she couldn't deceive her heart. The moment she saw Hou Yuxiao appear in the form of Fang Jinghong, she knew that she hadn't forgotten him for more than a year.

After that, she pretended that she was poisoned by the charm drug, just like she wanted to try Hou Zhan, she wanted to try Hou Yuxiao again, but when she saw that Hou Yuxiao was calmly helping herself to get rid of the charm drug just like he had saved her from Gu Chenfeng last time, Zhao Qingxue had an indescribable feeling in her heart, including loss, joy, and a hint of admiration for the master's accuracy in predicting fate.

All kinds of feelings are superimposed, and she can't tell whether it is true or false, but there is one thing she can be sure of, that is, there is indeed a thread of love in her heart.

Zhao Qingxue paused for a moment and stretched out her wrist. A transparent Gu worm was swimming happily among it. Looking at the crystal clear Gu worm, she felt that she could kill it at any time. A complex look suddenly appeared in her eyes. color.

After thinking for a long time, she took the Gu worm back again.

As the Taoist saying goes, there is no escape from disaster.

Since it is one's own calamity, it must be crossed by oneself.

She had already thought it through when she was at the ruined temple outside Yunmeng County.

Her eyes gradually became firmer, and her pace quickened a little.

Since the Taishang Dao disciples led by their master entered Lingyuanfu City, the Sword-Handling Si Yamen, which was originally located in the center of the city, has naturally become the place where the Ziqing Holy Sect issues orders. When Zhao Qingxue walked to the door, she realized that she was close to It was trotting over, and he suddenly spat secretly.

She quickly calmed herself down before approaching the door. The two guarding disciples saw her and rushed over to greet her.

"Sister, the elder is waiting for you!"

"I know, I'll go in by myself."

After Zhao Qingxue entered the door, she walked straight along the main road, and soon arrived at the main hall of the original yamen. Before she got close, she heard the teacher's hearty laughter.

"It's a strange thing. Within one day, there were actually three people who came to propose marriage, and all three of them were named Hou. It seems that my precious apprentice, the old Taoist, is remembered by many people!"

Three people propose marriage...

Moreover, all of them are named Hou?
The confusion on Zhao Qingxue's face only lasted for a moment. She immediately knew who the person besides Hou Yuxiao was, and her face suddenly darkened.

The surname Hou is rare, but recently, she happened to come into contact with two families.

One is the Hou family in Hexi where Hou Yuxiao is located.

The other one is Wuwei Wang Houjing.

Although she didn't know as much about King Wuwei and the sect as her master Mo Xuzi, she had heard about it. At the moment, apart from Hou Yuxiao proposing marriage to her, they were the only ones.

"Qingxue, come in!"

Zhao Qingxue adjusted her clothes slightly, calmed down her chaotic mind, and walked in slowly. As soon as she entered the main hall, she noticed one fiery gaze on the left, two on the right, and three on the right, which were immediately focused on herself.

She just inadvertently raised her eyes slightly and looked at the man in green on the left. Thinking of the purpose of his trip, the mood that she had just managed to calm down outside suddenly became chaotic again, and her face became more and more rosy. .

Hou Yuxiao saw all the changes in Zhao Qingxue's expression, and some of the proud emotions of a man rose in his heart, but deep in his eyes, there was still more complexity.

The Raksha Sacred Religion abandoned Xiayuandao, and the Hou family, like all other forces in Xiayuandao, lost the protection of the Holy Land directly.

The entire Xiayuan Dao will be a deserted land from now on.

Hou Shi and Sikong Yue had some relationship. He thought that he could go to Yongdu to find Sikong Yue, but four years later, Sikong Yue's attitude towards Hou Shi was not clear anymore.

Besides, when he got so close to Zhan Taiqing some time ago, Sikong Yue probably didn't trust her anymore. Besides, the Rakshasa Sect even gave up on Xia Yuan Dao. They are all Zhongyuan Dao, which is not in the interests of the Hou family.

More importantly, he was also a little resistant to getting in touch with Sikong Yue.

That woman left a huge shadow on him.

Therefore, he had no choice but to find the Ziqing Holy Sect in Hedong, which seemed to have cooperated with King Wuwei.

The purpose of his coming here this time is very clear. At best, it is to cooperate with the Purple Pure Sect, and at worst, it is to get close to the Purple Pure Sect.

First of all, he had already had some dealings with the Ziqing Holy Sect as early as the Tongling Rebellion, and Mo Xuzi left a good impression on him.

Secondly, there is such a ready-made "intermediary" as Zhao Qingxue.

Hou Yuxiao admits that he has no feelings for Zhao Qingxue. He rescued her twice either with a clear purpose or purely by accident.

The first time in Zhaoyang County was to kill Gu Chenfeng; the second time in Yunmeng County, he destroyed a temple outside the city to save her, which was purely an accident, but later he deliberately did not occupy her body in order to completely capture her. Her purpose is even less pure.

This time I came to propose marriage. In essence, I still wanted to take advantage of her.

Hou Yuxiao knew that Zhao Qingxue's deep love for him was largely due to the infatuated mother-in-law Gu left on her by Gu Chenfeng. This was undoubtedly unfair to Zhao Qingxue.

This is also the reason why he feels complicated.

"I'm Hou Hong, the eldest son of King Wuwei. I've always heard of Fairy Zhao's reputation. When I was in Yunmeng County, Hou Hong wanted to visit me. Unfortunately, I was ordered by my father to guard Yunshui County and couldn't get away. , Hou is lucky to meet Fairy Zhao today."

"I am Hou Fei, the third son of King Wuwei. This time I came to see Senior Mo Xuzi to propose marriage on my father's orders. It is really a bit rough. Please forgive me, Fairy Zhao. If you feel that you are not familiar with Hou, you can refuse. I am not in a hurry. , I just hope that I can give Hou a chance to get to know the fairy."

Although Hou Yuxiao knew why Zhao Qingxue was blushing, Hou Hong and Hou Fei didn't know. They came to look for Mo Xuzi as soon as they arrived in Fucheng. They didn't even know before that Hou Yuxiao who was standing opposite was also here to propose marriage, and Arriving long before them.

All they knew was that after Mo Xuzi read the autographed letter from his adoptive father Hou Jing, he immediately called his apprentice Zhao Qingxue. They were filled with joy that Mo Xuzi had agreed to their request for marriage.

The shy expression on Zhao Qingxue's face, in the eyes of the two people, naturally meant that he was reluctant to speak. Now both of them knew in their hearts that whoever married Zhao Qingxue would most likely be the eldest son of Prince Wuwei. He couldn't help but rush to show off in front of Zhao Qingxue.

Hou Yuxiao's eyes suddenly looked a little weird. He could definitely see the cleverness of these two people. Hou Hong was obviously more confident and went straight to the point. He started to praise Zhao Qingxue;

As for Hou Fei, he probably realized that there was still a gap between himself and Hou Hong, so he adopted a more tactful approach, giving Zhao Qingxue a chance to refuse, and then proposed to get to know each other, without being overbearing and giving people a polite feeling. Obviously, compared with Hou Hong needs to be smarter.

These two people have put some thought into it...

Hou Yuxiao had arrived an hour ago, and had almost finished chatting with Mo Xuzi. Although Hou Honghoufei's arrival surprised him, he figured it out quickly.

King Wuwei and the Purple Qing Holy Sect already have a cooperative relationship. It is normal to strengthen the relationship through marriage. Hou Zhan before that should have had the same idea in Yunmeng County. Unfortunately, the method used was too inferior. In addition, he was hit by himself, so he failed.

Even King Wuwei, a strong man, came to Zhao Qingxue to find a marriage alliance with the Purple Qing Holy Sect. Obviously, he came to Lingyuanfu City at the right time.

Zhao Qingxue didn't want to look at Hou Hong Houfei at all, but she couldn't ignore the two people's greetings, so she turned to them, nodded slightly, and then immediately walked towards Mo Xuzi who was sitting in the main seat.

As Zhao Qingxue walked, she felt Hou Yuxiao's eyes staring at her. Her face became redder and redder. By the time she got to Mo Xuzi's side, she was already red to the roots of her ears.

When she looked up and saw the master with a joking look on his face, and pouting in the direction of Hou Yuxiao from time to time, she suddenly showed a trace of anger and stamped her feet. She wanted to speak but was embarrassed, so she could only lower her head and hide behind Mo Xuzi. .

Seeing her posture, Hou Hong and Hou Zhan both thought it was themselves, and their expressions suddenly became more excited.

The two of them turned around and looked at each other, and at the same time, they turned their attention to Hou Yuxiao who was standing opposite, with a hint of disdain in their eyes.

Hou Fei was the first to ask: "May I ask my brother, what is your surname?"

"Hou Yuxiao."

When the two heard the name Hou Yuxiao, their eyes narrowed slightly. After thinking for a moment, they immediately knew the origin of Hou Yuxiao. Hou Hong showed a hint of amusement on his face and asked in a low voice:

"Hou Yuxiao, the Thousand-faced Jade Man, the head of the Hou family in Hexi?"

Hou Yuxiao probably guessed what they were thinking. He nodded calmly with his fists clasped in his hands, and said softly: "It's just a little name, it's not worth mentioning."

Hou Hong nodded with disdain and said: "Yes, as far as our Prince Wuwei Palace is concerned, the Hou family is indeed not worth mentioning, but at your age, you can be ranked on my list of new rising stars in the Demonic Dao, and your talent is also It is considered an extraordinary person. As long as you practice diligently, it is not difficult to reach the Yin Yang Holy Realm.

I heard that your Hou family caused quite a stir in Hexi in June. It is really not easy for a small third-rate clan to unify four counties. If you can continue to hide your capabilities and bide your time, you will have great potential in the future. "

Hou Yuxiao's expression was taken aback by Hou Hong's haughty and completely condescending attitude, but thinking that the other party was born under the strongest of the seven kings of the Great Jin Dynasty, King Wuwei, and he was also Hou Jingyi's son, he somewhat understood in his heart.

He understood it, but he still felt a little ridiculous in his heart.

The last time he went to Yunmeng County, he inquired about Hou Jing's six adopted sons. If he remembered correctly, Hou Hong should be almost a hundred years old. How could he dare to say "let him work diligently" when he was in the realm of Yuan Dan. "Practice more"?

As for the Hou family's unification of four counties, it is nothing compared to King Wuwei, but you are just an adopted son of King Wuwei. What qualifications do you have to comment on the self-reliant Hou family?

Hou Yuxiao looked at Hou Hong and narrowed his eyes slightly. He was about to speak, but unexpectedly, Hou Fei, who was standing next to Hou Hong, beat him to it.

"Of course, the premise of doing something is that you don't have thoughts that you shouldn't have, and don't do things that you shouldn't do. Otherwise, it will bring unreasonable disasters to the Hou family, and the gains will outweigh the losses, Master Hou, right?"

Now Hou Fei is even more arrogant and directly threatening himself?

There was a hint of astonishment in Hou Yuxiao's eyes. The anger that had just risen in his heart was amused by the two brothers. Looking at the two brothers, and then thinking about Hou Zhan, whom he had met before, he even felt towards the mighty king Hou Jing. A trace of sympathy arose.

With six adopted sons like this, this King of Martial Power must have a headache from time to time!
Hou Yuxiao didn't even have the thought to reply to these two people, he shook his head helplessly, stood two steps back, looked up at Mo Xuzi, and Zhao Qingxue behind him, with a look of questioning in his eyes, what he just said was very important. Clearly, all we need to do is wait for the answers from Mo Xuzi and Zhao Qingxue.

However, his concession made Hou Hong and Hou Fei mistakenly think that he had given in. A trace of pride rose on their faces. After thinking about it, they suddenly clapped their hands toward the door.

Two teams of the Mighty Heavenly Army soon came outside the door, each carrying a heavy box. As soon as the box was placed on the ground, the entire main hall suddenly shook, which showed how heavy it was.

"This is the betrothal gift prepared by my father this time. Each of these two boxes contains 400 taels of black gold, totaling 800 taels. In addition, my father knows that the Purple Qing Holy Sect has always wanted to find a letter written by the former imperial master Mo Yunzi. Xuantian's secret record was specially sent to find it and dedicated to Senior Mo!"

As Hou Hong said, the mighty Heavenly Army opened the box, and a dazzling golden light suddenly broke through the main hall and reached the sky, instantly shocking everyone present.

Even Mo Yunzi's eyes couldn't help but trance when he looked at the booklet in the box.

At this moment, Hou Yuxiao's heart was even more turbulent. He didn't know what the Xuantian Secret Record was, but he knew from the look in Mo Yunzi's eyes that it was definitely something serious. Speaking of black gold, one or two black gold could be exchanged for 10 taels of gold, 800 Two, what is the concept?
Just put it this way, if these two boxes of black gold are converted into silver, I am afraid that an ordinary prefecture-level power cannot afford so much money, not to mention that black gold has infinite uses and is far more valuable than gold and silver. It is very important to major forces and even the Holy Land. That said, they are all strategic reserve materials.

This is the handiwork of King Wuwei...

Having just unified Hexi, Hou Yuxiao still had some pride and inflation in his heart, but in the face of the huge financial resources of King Wuwei, all of them disappeared in an instant.

"King Wuwei's handiwork is truly amazing!"

Mo Xuzi couldn't help but sigh in admiration. Zhao Qingxue, who was standing behind him, saw the master's eyes fixed on the Xuantian Secret Record and couldn't bear to move away. He immediately pouted and pulled his sleeves.

"Cough cough cough..."

Seeing the unhappy look on his disciple's face, Mo Xuzi also realized that he had lost his composure. He quickly looked away, coughed twice, turned to look at Hou Yuxiao on the left, and said jokingly: "Master Hou, you are also here to propose marriage. What kind of betrothal gift did you bring to me?"

…………

Hou Yuxiao remained silent for more than ten breaths. Facing the contemptuous looks of Hou Hong and Hou Fei, as well as the expectant looks of Mo Xuzi and Zhao Qingxue, he bravely replied: "I didn't bring a bride price."
