Beast blood boils 2

Hu Gao was sitting bored in the magnificent lobby of the Zhou family, and the well-behaved maid of the Zhou family made tea for Hu Gao cup after cup, and changed the fruit plate twice.

On the way here, Hu Gao had listened to Zhou Jian briefly introduce the situation of the Zhou family.The Zhou family, like the Zhang family, is a merchant family that started out as a trader.Although the Zhou family is superior to the Zhang family in terms of combat power, they are firmly suppressed by the Zhang family in terms of business, and have been the second child of Xiaoling City's business for hundreds of years.

For generations, the Zhou family has been thinking about how to get rid of the Zhang family, so that the Zhou family can monopolize all the trade interests in Xiaoling City; and the Zhang family has also devoted themselves to suppressing the Zhou family for generations, wishing to drive the Zhou family out of Xiaoling City; As a result, the two formed an irreconcilable conflict!

After entering Zhou's house, Zhou Jian said that he was going to report to the Patriarch, but disappeared as soon as he went.Judging from this long time, Zhou Jian and the Patriarch of the Zhou family should have had a long talk first.

"This week's Patriarch is very cautious." Hu Gao had his first impression of Zhou's Patriarch before seeing him.

When Hu Gao finished eating the fourth plate of preserved fruit, the Patriarch of the Zhou family dressed in fancy clothes arrived late.

Hu Gao originally disliked overly gorgeous and formal clothing, because this kind of clothing is often too bulky and not as loose as it looks, and his limbs are quite restrained when moving, which is not conducive to coping with sudden changes or battles.

But the gorgeous clothes worn by the Patriarch of the Zhou family in front of him obviously cannot be judged by common sense.Many details of this costume have been treated with some special treatment that Hu Gao couldn't understand, and it seems to have a certain shrinkage effect. You don't need to think about it to know that this is a modification specially made by the Zhou family to address the disadvantages of the costume.

The strength of the Patriarch of the Zhou family is similar to that of Zhou Jian, both of whom are in the middle-level general body state.This gave Hu Gao a general understanding of Xiaoling City's combat power level.

In Ningcheng, the patriarch of every big family is a high-level body-level powerhouse, and besides that, there are more or less high-level body-level elders.But this week the Patriarch of the Zhou family is only at the middle-level body level, and Zhou Jian is the head of the Zhou family's bodyguard, and he is also of the same strength. Hu Gao can boldly speculate that the combat power of Xiaoling City is completely lower than that of Ning City Several grades, at least in terms of high-end combat power, it is far inferior to Ning Cheng.

"I kept you waiting for a long time, young friend from the outer city." The head of the Zhou family didn't show any embarrassment on his face, he smiled kindly, waved all the maids on the side to step down, and then sat on the first seat.

"The Zhou family's hospitality is special."

Since the head of the Zhou family loves to laugh, Hu Gao laughed with him, and his smile was brighter than his.

"It's okay to wait a little longer, isn't it? Anyway, your purpose is to get online with a master in Xiaoling City, and you are not in a hurry."

Hearing Patriarch Zhou explain his purpose, Hu Gao was startled, but there was no expression on his face, pretending to be confused: "What does Patriarch Zhou mean? I'm still young, so I don't quite understand."

"You provoked the Zhang family on purpose and caused a lot of trouble. You obviously could easily defeat the guards of the Zhang family but didn't do anything. Didn't you just wait for other big families who couldn't hold back and took the initiative to rescue you, and then reached a cooperative relationship with you? The Patriarch of the Zhou family exposed Hu Gao's purpose very calmly, with a smile on his face that did not diminish at all, "I have to say, you are very smart, you saw the situation of the stalemate among the major families in Xiaoling City, so you took the initiative to jump Come out and be a weight to break the balance. Even if we know that you want to use us, we still have to fall into your bait."

"Your reasoning is wonderful, but why should I do this?" Hu Gao's face remained unchanged, and he continued to pretend to be confused.

"You came from the outer city. If you entered Xiaoling City alone, if you were not looking for someone or seeking revenge, then you were just to get some supplies you needed. You killed the sixth young master of the Zhang family. You should have a lot of gold coins on hand, but you didn't Leaving immediately proves that what you need is something that cannot be bought with gold coins in Xiaoling City, that is, what the major families have stockpiled as important supplies—elixir, formulas, weapons, and armor!"

Hu Gao was really shocked now!

This week, the Patriarch of the Zhou family seemed to be able to see through his thoughts, and actually analyzed his motives completely!Hu Gao suddenly felt that the strength of the Patriarchs of the Zhou family might not be as strong as those of Ningcheng, but in terms of difficulty, they might be even better!

"Am I wrong?" The Patriarch of the Zhou family knew that he was right, so he still asked Hu Gao.This kind of questioning is not a provocation, but a psychological game technique.

Fortunately, Hu Gao, the time traveler, has always believed that "the time traveler is the protagonist." He didn't follow the lead of the Patriarch of the Zhou family. He quickly recovered from the shock and smiled calmly: "I'm curious, the Zhou family is as smart as you." The Patriarch, why is he still suppressed by the Zhang family?"

"Young man, you are a smart person, and Xiaoling City is not all idiots. Although I am not stupid, the Patriarch of the Zhang family is not a fool either. I have to admit that in some respects, he is smarter than me. The sixth young master of the Zhang family is the old son of the head of the Zhang family, so it's normal to pamper him a little bit, so don't underestimate him." The head of the Zhou family reminded him kindly.

"Since you think you are not as smart as him, do you have a way to beat the Zhang family now?"

"Of course there is! That's taking by force!" The eyes of the head of the Zhou family suddenly burst into dazzling brilliance, "Zhang Kuo, the number one master of the Zhang family, has already gone to the Dragon Armor Mountain Range, but there are not many guards in the Zhang family. Even if Zhang Kuo is not around, we can't guarantee that we can wipe out his Zhang family in a short time. Now you are the last straw that breaks the camel's back!"

"My advantage." Hu Gao didn't bother to continue talking nonsense with the Patriarch of the Zhou family. Smart people talk to smart people, and it's just superfluous to go around.

"In the treasure house of the Zhang family, we will share [-]% of the pills, formulas, weapons, and armor! Two for you, eight for me!"

The condition offered by the Patriarch of the Zhou family is really generous.In this battle, the Zhou family will use all their strength, and Hu Gao has only one person. The head of the Zhou family is willing to give Hu Gao [-]%, which is not unreasonable!

"I don't need Yuan Jue, I will take one weapon and one armor each, and all the pills are mine!" Hu Gao Shizitai said.

Generally speaking, the storage of pills in a family must be the largest. Hu Gao gave up Yuan Jue, weapons, and armor. As long as the pills were used, he actually asked for half of the total value of the Zhang family's treasury!

The head of the Zhou family was shocked by Hu Gao's ignorant counter-offer, and after being silent for almost a stick of incense, he took a deep look at Hu Gao: "Young man, you have a lot of appetite...In this case, we will How about a little more appetite?"

"I would like to hear more about it." Hu Gao crossed his legs comfortably, with an expression of "I'm listening, you can talk now".

The head of the Zhou family selectively ignored Hu Gao's actions and continued: "Before I launch an attack on the Zhang family, I will secretly send secret envoys to the other three major families to inform them of the attack on the Zhang family. With such a big movement, they will surely Mobilize the elite forces to see if there is any bargain. At that time, Zhou Jian and I will pretend to be robbed of all the treasures by you, and attack you. Don't worry, this is just a show, and we won't use much strength .”

"Then I will pretend to be wounded and run away, and let people from other families chase after me. Then you find a place to set up an encirclement circle. After I run around with people from other families, I will rush to the city according to the plan." Enter the encirclement you set up so that you can wipe them all out?" Hu Gao added the rest for the Patriarch of the Zhou family.

"You are indeed a smart person! You don't need to elaborate, you understand my plan." The head of the Zhou family smiled brighter, "After we return to Xiaoling City and wipe out the remaining forces of the other three major families, their family All the pills in the treasury are also yours."

Hu Gao took a breath, and looked again at the seemingly harmless Zhou Family Patriarch: "Zhou Patriarch said I have a big appetite, and your appetite is much bigger than mine... I just want money, you This is to completely exterminate them all..."

"Little brother, you are not from Xiaoling City, don't you care about their life and death?" The Patriarch of the Zhou family has changed the name of Hu Gao to "little brother", and the closeness is self-evident.

After thinking about it, Hu Gao repeatedly calculated the limit of his ability and all the possibilities of accidents in his mind. After hesitating again and again, he still felt that this plan was beyond the scope of his control.Hu Gao was about to refuse, but suddenly his heart moved, and the rejection he was about to say immediately turned into——

"Operation time."

"Tonight."

"Then I'll leave first." Hu Gao stood up, and before he set off, he still had to do a little preparatory work...

"I'll take you out!" The Patriarch of the Zhou family seemed to have seen the day when the Zhou family had successfully risen, with a bright smile on his face.

The two looked at each other, full of sincerity and friendliness in cooperation.

But in fact, both of them sneered at the same time in their hearts: "Old (little) thing, don't think I don't know what you're thinking... want to plot against me? Hmph!"

……

A big black-headed vulture stood quietly on the top of a locust tree one mile away from Zhou's house for half a day. His sharp eagle eyes passed through the long distance, remembering all the lip shapes of the two people talking in the Zhou's lobby. Changes, until Hu Gao walked out of the gate of Zhou's house, the black-headed eagle spread its wings and flew straight to the tallest building in the center of Xiaoling City - the City Lord's Mansion...

All the news based on the analysis of lip language was passed to the owner of the shining jade hand in a way unknown to outsiders. Another equally flawless jade hand gently stroked the blade-like wings of the black-headed eagle. The cold, noble, slightly lazy voice sounded again in the empty city lord's mansion——

"Ambitious person... Can you have the courage to challenge the City Lord's Mansion by concentrating all the resources of the family? Underestimating the cunning of the fox will make you fall short..."
