Ye Fan smiled and slowly exhaled a puff of smoke. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
At this point, he has a seventy or eighty percent chance of winning.
"Let's talk about Jiang Yuan first. ”
"Jiang ......" Xiao Tianxi was stunned, since the establishment of the worship relationship between the two parties a hundred years ago, the Xiao family has always adhered to the oath of keeping the Jiang family's secrets, and now things have come to this point......
At this point, Xiao Tianxi must make a choice.
Jiang Yuan is dead, he and Ye Fan have become grasshoppers on the same rope, and he has deeply realized that the cultivators are ruthless and unrighteous, and he can no longer be indecisive. If you want to save the remnants of the Xiao family, you can only abandon the darkness and turn to the light, betray the old master, and turn to another party.
With trembling fingers, Xiao Tianxi lit a cigarette, hoarsely voiced, and told the secret story of the past a hundred years ago.
"It was the third year of Xuantong, not long after the last emperor of the capital ascended the throne......"
The three years of Xuantong happened to be a century ago.
At that time, the Qing government was in internal and external difficulties, unable to support the huge foundation of the country, and the people were struggling to make a living, and the ancestors of the Xiao family, who had made a fortune by running money houses and pawnshops, were in a worse situation, and they were about to go bankrupt and become hungry civilians.
At that time, the patriarch of the Xiao family, that is, Xiao Mushan and Xiao Tianxi's grandfather Xiao Fugui took risks and sold illicit salt, which was a major crime of killing the head at that time.
It is also Xiao Fugui's life that should not be extinguished, perhaps because he is destined to bring wealth and nobility, destined to bring a hundred years of good luck to the Xiao family, this market dealer whose life is harder than the emperor saved half a bowl of gruel in the death row prison and got acquainted with a jewelry merchant who was suffering from a vicious illness and dying.
When Xiao Fugui took the wooden box from him, a legendary history began.
"What's in the wooden box?" Ye Fan asked.
"Jade, a piece of beautiful jade. Xiao Tianxi's expression was very excited, and his lips trembled a little nervously: "Later, the ancestor smashed the piece of beautiful jade according to what the merchant said, and suddenly, the clouds and mist rose flat, and a figure appeared in the death row. ”
Suddenly, Ye Fan's eyes narrowed, like a man's back, teleporting! This is definitely not a retreat technique that a cultivator of his level can do, this is a thousand-mile retreat technique!
Could it be that the person has already stepped into the realm of the Great Dao Jindan, and is one step away from the daytime soaring?
"Go on!"
Xiao Tianxi swallowed his saliva, calmed down, and continued in a hoarse voice: "When the ancestor woke up, the person had already left Fengtian and was in the capital, but for only two hours, the immortal had disappeared without a trace......
It was a distance of thousands of miles from Mukden to the capital! At that time, no means of transportation could reach such speeds.
A thousand miles away, definitely a thousand miles away!
"After escaping from prison, the ancestors thanked the heavens, thanked Dade, worked hard to make a living, and gradually settled down in the capital, found the descendants of the jewelry merchant, married his family, and the business became bigger and bigger......"
coincided with the troubled times, the warlords were fighting, Xiao Fugui escaped death once, cherished this hard-won life, did business abroad, dealt with European, American, and Japanese officials and businessmen, trafficked arms, food and wages, lent money and set up banks, and became the original big comprador and big capitalist of the Republic of China.
If everything develops step by step, the Xiao family still can't get rid of the fate of perdition
