Chapter 21

Facing Yuan Xu, although Yuan Xi wanted to smile, he couldn't.

Since you can't laugh, just don't laugh.

A few steps away from Yuan Xu, he asked, "Why are you here?"

Yuan Xu smiled: "I heard that the second brother has arrived in Zhongshan, so I have to say hello anyway."

"I need to bring so many people to see me?" Yuan Xi sneered: "I thought they were going to deal with me."

"I didn't take anyone with me." Yuan Xu looked innocent: "How can the second brother say that I brought many people?"

There are more than a hundred people standing behind him, but he actually said that none of them were brought...

Yuan Xi sneered: "The lie is so blatant, do you think I'm stupid?"

"I don't understand what the second brother said." Yuan Xu replied, "It's true that I didn't bring anyone with me, so why should I lie?"

"The people behind you, are they all dead?" Yuan Xi snorted coldly.

As soon as the words came out of his mouth, he immediately felt that something was wrong, and his eyes suddenly became a little more startled.

Yuan Xu has the ability to drive dead bodies, so what he brings may be all dead...

If those were all dead bodies, it wouldn't count as bringing someone here.

"Second brother asks this question, how should I answer?" Yuan Xu smiled and waved his hands behind him.

Two corpses wearing brand new armor immediately stepped forward.

The guards behind Yuan Xi took two steps forward one after another, holding their sword hilts in a posture of protection.

"I just want my second brother to look at something, what are you going to do?" Yuan Xu glared at the guards.

The guards looked at each other in blank dismay, neither advancing nor retreating.

"Everyone back down." Yuan Xi ordered.

They backed away one after another.

The two corpses stopped two or three steps away from Yuan Xi.

From this distance, their faces can already be seen clearly.

The corpse has been decomposed, and the bones are exposed on the face, which is especially strange in the night.

Even though he was mentally prepared, Yuan Xi still felt a chill in his heart, and shivered involuntarily.

Those who lined up behind Yuan Xu were all dead bodies.

"What does fourth brother mean?" He asked Yuan Xu vigilantly.

Yuan Xu replied, "What's the point of visiting Second Brother?"

Facing the hundreds of dead bodies behind him, Yuan Xi panicked: "I heard that Cao Pi has also come to Zhongshan, I'm afraid that my fourth brother will suffer..."

"Cao Pi was dealt with by me last night, second brother, don't worry." Yuan Xu turned his head and glanced at the dead bodies lined up behind him: "As long as there are people, I will not lack guards. Birth, old age, sickness and death are natural, and there is nothing wrong with this world." Where there are dead bodies."

"Come to Zhongshan rashly, I was really worrying indiscriminately." Thinking of Zhang Nan who had appeared next to his bed, Yuan Xi's hairs stood on end: "I will return to Yecheng tonight."

"We've only just arrived in Zhongshan, why is the second brother in such a hurry to leave?" Yuan Xu even politely said to him, "It's better to stay for two more days, so that we can get closer to each other."

Yuan Xi slandered: Getting close to you?I'm afraid that sooner or later I will become a member standing behind you.

Thinking this way in his heart, he would not say this: "If I was not worried about you, I would not have come to Zhongshan. There are still many things in Yecheng, especially your marriage. Most of the things you need have not been arranged."

Originally, he didn't want to keep him in Zhongshan, so Yuan Xu went along with the situation: "Since this is the case, I don't want to force my second brother to stay."

Yuan Xi ordered the guards: "Send the order, immediately pack up and return to Yecheng."

When the military order was issued, all the soldiers were stunned.

I just arrived in Zhongshan, and before I had time to rest, I had to set off to return to Yecheng.

What kind of trouble is the second son doing?
Yuan Xi gave the order to set off at night, and Mao Jie, who was hiding in the room, jumped anxiously.

He wished he could rush out immediately and cover Yuan Yuanxi's mouth.

"I'll go back to the house and get ready." After the military order was issued, Yuan Xi said to Yuan Xu: "It's getting late, fourth brother should go back and rest first..."

While speaking, he subconsciously glanced at the hundreds of corpses behind Yuan Xu.

Seeing Zhili's corpse, he thought of Zhang Nan who returned after his death that day, and his skin got goosebumps.

Yuan Xu replied: "It's still early, I have to send my second brother off."

He refused to leave, and Yuan Xi couldn't do anything about it.

When Yuan Xi returned to the house, Mao Jie came up to greet him: "Master, are you really going back to Yecheng tonight?"

"Otherwise?" Yuan Xi asked, "What do you think I can do?"

"Why?" Mao Jie was puzzled.

"Did you see the hundred and ten people behind him?" Yuan Xi said, "I can tell you that there are not even half of them alive!"

Mao Jie looked astonished: "My lord means..."

"It's all dead bodies." Yuan Xi lowered his voice: "Didn't you know that the fourth brother will drive dead bodies?"

"Although I have heard about it, I haven't seen it." Mao Jie asked, "Did you see it clearly?"

"The bones on my face are clearly visible. I'm not blind." Yuan Xi waved his hand: "Don't try to persuade me any more. Back then, I was willing to come to Zhongshan because Cao Mengde said that there would be no dead bodies in the Zhen family. But now?"

Mao Jie was silent.

Yuan Xi continued: "If you don't leave now, why don't you stay here and wait for your death?"

"Don't you want to marry Zhen Mi again?" Mao Jie was still trying to persuade.

"No matter how beautiful Zhen Mi is, she is just a woman." Yuan Xi said: "If you throw your life here, even if the country is beautiful, you will not be blessed. The matter of the Zhen family is for you and the Cao family to solve by yourself. I will not go into troubled waters." , and don’t need to take any benefit from it, being able to leave here is already quite a fortune.”

While the two were talking, the guard had already packed his bags.

After bowing to Mao Jie, Yuan Xi turned and walked out of the room.

Yuan Xu was still waiting outside.

In front of him, Yuan Xi greeted: "You can go."

Yuan Xu accompanied him to the gate of Zhen's house.

"I heard that the fourth brother also changed the head of the Zhen family?" Yuan Xi asked suddenly.

"It's changed." Yuan Xu replied lightly.

Yuan Xi nodded: "It's a good change!"

"Second brother, don't ask why you changed it?"

"When Cao Pi came to Zhongshan, the Zhen family not only did not refuse, but treated them as honored guests." Yuan Xi said: "After all, isn't it all because of the Patriarch?"

"Since the second brother understands the whole story, I won't repeat it." Yuan Xu said: "When you return to Yecheng, please explain it for me in front of my father."

"Fourth brother, don't worry, I will report the truth."

After sending Yuan Xi to the gate of Zhongshan City, Yuan Xu watched the team go away.

The hundreds of corpses following him were wearing brand-new armors. Looking at them from a distance in the night, it was impossible to tell that they were not living people.

Yuan Xu didn't return to Zhen's house until Yuan Xi's team completely disappeared into the night.

As soon as he entered the gate, Tian Feng and Feng Ji came out to welcome him.

Tian Feng reported: "After the young master left, we sent people to search the residence of the second young master and captured Cao Cao's staff member Mao Jie."

"It turned out to be Mao Jie." Yuan Xu said with a smile, "Cao Cao is really willing to invest in killing me."

Then he asked: "Where is he kept?"

"Still in the room." It was Tian Feng who responded.
