Family practice: all members of the villain

Chapter 363 Two brothers who are eager to make contributions
The fifth day of the seventh lunar month in the year 1332 of the New Yu Calendar

On the official road outside the city of Jiufan County, two handsome young men, dressed in black, each riding a strong mane and carrying swords at their waists, seemed to have come after a long journey and were watching the entrance and exit of the city gate. Pedestrians, their eyebrows and eyes are full of curiosity and agility.

Most passers-by had already noticed the two young men, but almost without exception, after glancing at them, they immediately turned their eyes elsewhere.

Not to mention the value of the high-grade Fierce Manes the two of them were riding, the clothes they were wearing seemed to be just ordinary black clothes, but if you take a closer look, you will find that the material is obviously higher than what ordinary people wear. It's so much better, not to mention the swords on their waists and the jade ornaments hanging on their bodies. They just have the words "My family is rich" engraved on their foreheads.

Coupled with the childishness between their eyebrows and the simple aura of being ignorant of the world, it is obvious that these are two young men of noble birth who have just entered the world.

A few years ago, if you encountered this kind of young master, a ruthless man from Jiufong County, you would have some evil thoughts. Some people who were not afraid of death would take risks to see if they could get something good from these two people.

Not anymore.

Since the implementation of the Hexi New Deal in Jiufun County, all warriors have been registered in the military registration order. If you commit adultery and commit crimes, the Xuanting Division in each city will not spare you. Moreover, the punishments for warriors are often higher than those for ordinary people. It is much more serious, ranging from being deprived of military status to being directly executed.

The deprivation of military status sounds like a trivial punishment, but in fact the impact is extremely terrifying. There are three prefectures of Xingnan, Hexi, and Nanping under the rule of the Hexi Alliance. All warriors, whether local or from outside, must Registration, without a military registration order, you can't enter any city in the three prefectures, buy anything used by warriors, and you can't even go to the official channels between various places.

The Hexi Alliance uniformly calls this kind of warrior a black householder. Anyone who goes to a black household will be wanted by the Xuanting Division in each city. It’s okay to be caught by the Xuanting Division. If you are unlucky, you will be caught by a master from the Hou clan or a Hou clan. If Fourth Master's Black Feather Guard catches him, he will be executed directly without trial.

Basically, being deprived of the military status order is equivalent to being expelled from the three prefectures of Hexi. There is currently a war in Xuzhou in the east, and Leiyin Temple in the west has blocked the entire territory. There is no news at all. In this world, there is a peaceful place to stay. It is not easy, especially if there is no war at all in the three prefectures of Hexi, it will be even less.

"Brother, what are you doing standing around, going into the city?"

Hou Wuji walked two steps excitedly, when he found Hou Wuqie standing still, he hurriedly turned his head and called him in doubt.

"Wuji, why don't we go back? We've been playing for two days and it's almost done. If uncle and dad wake up from seclusion and find that we are not here, they will definitely be furious!"

"I won't go back. I have stayed in Five Elements Heaven for more than 20 years. I have spent all day and night doing nothing but cultivation. I am almost going crazy. I finally got out this time. It would be weird if I didn't play for a year and a half. , If you want to go back, you can go back on your own, no matter what you say, I won’t go back.”

When Hou Wuji said he wanted to go back, Hou Wuji immediately became furious.

He looked to be in his 20s, but because he had been practicing in Five Elements Heaven for more than 20 years, his mental age was completely inconsistent with his actual age. After he finished speaking, he did not wait for Hou Wuji to respond, and rode his horse to the city gate. The direction rushed over.

Seeing that Hou Wuji couldn't listen to his words, a hint of helplessness suddenly flashed across Hou Wuji's face. He himself had been in Wuxingtian for more than 20 years, and he was indeed very uncomfortable. He thought that the two of them had not left Hexi anyway. , there should be nothing wrong, so he followed Hou Wuji and rode towards the city gate.

"You two gentlemen, please show me your token!"

The soldiers on duty at the city gate were dressed in black armor. The two of them could tell at a glance that they were soldiers of the Zhaoyang Army. Without saying anything, they directly took out the false identity tokens they had prepared in the clan. The gatekeeper The soldiers did not notice anything unusual and directly let the two people into the city.

"Jiu Falcon is the westernmost county of Xingnan Prefecture. Because it is adjacent to Jianye Prefecture, we must guard against Leiyin Temple. There are more troops stationed here than in other places. If I remember correctly, there are 50 Zhaoyang troops stationed here. The leader of the army is Uncle Cheng Yunye Cheng, who is at the level of Yuandan Second Realm Divine Ability Stage; the city lord is Uncle Gao Huan, a great master of the Fourth Realm."

Hearing these two names, Hou Wuji's face suddenly showed a smile. During the 20 years of Five Elements Heaven, his father had been in seclusion for a long time, and his mother only came out occasionally. He and Hou Wuji spent most of their time with other senior members of the clan. In life, the two people's cultivation received guidance from many people, Cheng Yunye and Gao Huan were one of them.

"Uncle Cheng used to serve in my aunt's Xiahoumen. His cultivation has improved rapidly in the past few years in Wuxingtian. It was my father who recommended him to command the Zhaoyang Army. Unexpectedly, he was directly transferred to Jiufun County. Here we come; Uncle Gao Huan seemed to have been following Grandpa Gao Cheng in the Qinglong Club before, but now he has actually joined the Qiancheng Division and was even sent to Jiuxian County as the city lord."

Hou Wuqiu's tone was somewhat doubtful. Cheng Yunye and Gao Huan were both high-ranking members of the Hou family. It was not normal for them to be transferred to this sensitive place of Jiuying County at the same time.

Hou Wuji's expression suddenly changed, and he turned around and whispered: "Brother, have you forgotten the news we heard along the way? The battle on Jiangdong Road in Xuzhou has become intense, and King Wuwei's army has all pressed forward. Do you think... …”

"You mean, uncle is going to start attacking Leiyin Temple?"

Hou Wuji reacted quickly and immediately realized what Hou Wuji was thinking. Thinking back to what he had seen in the previous two days, he nodded immediately and realized that Hou Wuji's words were probably right.

"In all likelihood, I heard Uncle Wu say before that my father had long wanted to take action against Leiyin Temple. Due to his strength and the lack of movement from King Wuwei in the east, he had been holding back. When we came out, in the Five Elements Heaven, The Red Flame Army has already started to leave the customs in batches, and I guessed at that time that there should be some action, so I came to Jiuying County."

Seeing the smug expression on Hou Wuji's face, Hou Wuqie immediately knew what he was thinking, and advised in a low voice: "Wuji, don't act recklessly, if this is the case, then uncle and father should both leave the customs. And it is very likely that we will come here soon, and Jiufalcon County is not safe here, in my opinion, let's go back?"

Hou Wuji refused in his heart without even thinking about it, but this time he changed his words, with a hint of mystery on his face. He came close to Hou Wuji and whispered: "Brother, we are about to start a war with Leiyin Temple. We will also We have to help, if we can make meritorious deeds, maybe my father and fifth uncle will be willing to let us join the Red Flame Army, and then we won’t have to be locked up in the Five Elements Heaven to practice, that would be great!"

"But………"

"Don't worry, I've thought about it. Let's rest in the city for one night today and leave the city early tomorrow morning. Didn't I hear my aunt say before that if the Marquis can't get any news back from Jianye Mansion, let's go to Jianye Mansion." Go to Ye Mansion to explore the reality of Leiyin Temple, and maybe we can cooperate with the clan’s army to take over Jianye Mansion in one fell swoop. By then, the two of us will be great heroes!”

…………

Hou Wuqi was a little frightened by what he heard, and he instinctively resisted in his heart. Leiyin Temple had been entrenched in Jianye Mansion for five or six years, and his uncle and father had nothing to do with them. They had to take advantage of King Wuwei's escalation of the war in Jiangdong Road to dare It is unreasonable to go to Jianye Mansion with just the two brothers and to explore the reality of Leiyin Temple.

But Hou Wuji's words really moved him.

If you are really lucky and make great contributions to the family, your father and uncle will definitely look at you differently. Both of them dream of joining the Red Flame Army. As long as they succeed, maybe the uncle will really do it.

The key is that they don't need to trouble Leiyin Temple, as long as they can get some specific information about Jianye Mansion.

"What if we are caught by bad guys?"

Hou Wuqiu is only three years older than Hou Wuji. In the past 20 years, he was also in the Five Elements Heaven like Hou Wuji. In fact, his mental age is not much different from him. Being able to ask this sentence actually means that he has a proposal for Hou Wuji. , already tempted.

"Based on the cultivation base of our two masters in the three realms, as long as we don't meet the warriors in the Yuandan realm of Leiyin Temple, who is our opponent!" Hou Wuji's face was full of arrogance. , but it is not deserted.

A 20-year-old Grandmaster of the Third Realm. According to uncles in the clan, his father, Hou Yuxiao, was only at the Gang Qi Realm when he was 24 years old. He is now much better than his father, so he is naturally very worried. proud.

Hou Wuji was the same, with a hint of arrogance on his face. He also had strong confidence in his talent. In the past 20 years, the two of them had almost been promoted simultaneously in the Five Elements Heaven. The entire Hou family's warriors were of the same age. Among them, he and Hou Wuji were indeed the two most talented.

"Okay, let's talk it over first, Wuji, we must be cautious in our actions. Once we get any news from Jianye Mansion, we must come back immediately!"

Seeing that his brother agreed to his proposal, Hou Wuji's face was suddenly filled with smiles, he nodded heavily, rolled his eyes, and said:
"Then let's get ready now. Let's go shopping in the city tonight and change our clothes. Don't let Uncle Cheng and Uncle Gao find out. We will leave the city early tomorrow morning and go straight to Jianye Mansion."

"it is good!"

The two of them made the decision enthusiastically and unambiguously, and immediately changed their outfits in the city. In order to hide their identity from others, they chose not to stay at Jinfeng Xiaoyu Building but at an unknown inn.

When they were young and frivolous, the two of them made up their minds to go to a completely unfamiliar world. They were nervous and excited at the same time. It was almost midnight and they were still awake. Their minds were filled with thoughts about how their father and three uncles had to return home after they had made contributions to the family. There was a look of admiration from my aunt, and she didn't fall asleep until after midnight.

...............

The next day, Jiufan County City was twenty miles west.

The moment Hou Wuji opened his eyes, he realized that he was in an unfamiliar environment. His body suddenly trembled. He instinctively grabbed his sword from the bedside and subconsciously called his brother Hou Wuji on the other side.

"Wuji, wake up quickly!"

Hou Wuji was sleepy. He slept too late last night and was still a little confused. His face was still a little unhappy when he was woken up by his elder brother. But he raised his head and looked around, and soon realized that he was not in the inn where he was last night. inside.

"This... seems to be a military tent. Why does this military tent look familiar!"

Hou Wuji looked around and saw the white cloth structure with an arched dome, and his eyebrows narrowed slightly. Then the two of them raised their heads at the same time and looked directly above the military tent, their expressions suddenly stunned.

Directly above the military tent, there is a two-color divine lotus pattern.

While the two of them were stunned, a dignified woman in a purple skirt came from outside the tent and cursed her head and face.

"You two brats, you just ran away without paying attention, you just sneaked out to play for two days, but you still want to sneak out of Hexi and want to go to Jianye Mansion, don't you think your life is too long?"

Seeing Hou Yuling's stern expression for the first time, the two of them immediately lowered their heads like eggplants beaten by frost and said in unison:
"Auntie, we were wrong!"

When Hou Yuling saw the two boys being frightened, a smile suddenly appeared in his eyes, and he pretended to be serious: "It's useless to apologize to aunt. My eldest brother came out of seclusion and found out that you two had escaped. He was very angry. Saying this If I catch you for the first time, I must punish you severely. I estimate that you will have to stay in the Five Elements Heaven for another 20 years."

"what!"

When they heard that they would stay in Five Elements Heaven for 20 years, their handsome little faces turned pale with fright. They looked at each other and hurriedly stepped forward to hold Hou Yuling's arms, pleading with tears.

"Auntie, help me beg dad for mercy. Wuji will definitely stop running around in the future. I don't want to go to Five Elements Heaven anymore. Just let me stay outside. I beg you."

"I don't want to go in either. Auntie, help me tell my uncle. I will be obedient and not run around in the future. Even if I stay in Hexi, I won't go there."

Hearing the pleading of her two nephews, Hou Yuling could hardly hold back the smile in her eyes. Fortunately, she still held it back, pretending to think about it, and coughed lightly and said: "Forget it, I'll wait for it later." I will help you with a few good words, first follow me to see the elder brother, let's go!"

"I knew it, aunt is the best..."

The two of them followed Hou Yuling. The moment they walked out of the tent, a strong force of energy and blood hit their faces. Their bodies shook violently and their pupils suddenly shrank.

The two of them had stayed in the military tent before and did not take the initiative to find out what was going on outside. When they came out, they discovered that everywhere they could see were military tents. Thousands or even tens of thousands of people could be seen with just the naked eye. top.

Most military tents can accommodate ten people each, which means that there are more than [-] soldiers entrenched in the area they can see.

There were endless military tents, and countless soldiers were passing through. They were all wearing red armor. They were clearly Hou's elite Red Flame Army. The soldiers passing by along the way kept bowing to the three of them.

"Greetings to the eldest young master, young master!"

"Meet the Commander."

"You two gentlemen are awake. How did you sleep last night?"

"Meet the two sons!"

...............

He arrived last night. When Hou Wuji heard the greetings from the soldiers, he immediately looked at each other. They had obviously slept in an inn in Jiuxian County last night. How could they come here? The key is that they didn't know that they were now alive. where.

Also, how did they get here?
The two of them were full of questions and followed Hou Yuling forward. Not long after, they arrived at the door of a huge military tent. Looking at the white-clothed guards standing on the left and right of the military tent curtain, Hou Wu and Hou Wuji recognized each other at a glance. They recognized that it was the Bai Yuwei who had been following Hou Yuxiao all year round. When they realized that Hou Yuxiao was in the military tent, the two of them immediately shrank their necks and subconsciously hid behind Hou Yuling.

"The head of the family is discussing something, and no one is allowed in until he has been summoned. Miss Third, and the two young masters, please wait a moment!"

Hou Yuling nodded, turned around and looked at the two brothers who were silent behind him, his eyes full of smiles and joking.
