Chapter 112: Jin Father and Son
At the same time, a mansion located in the west of Yuejia City. Jin Xu was restless, walking around in his room. He held a crumpled note in his hand, and sometimes stopped to place it on top of the oil lamp. However, before the note full of words could be lit, it seemed to be burned again, and he retracted his hand.
Repeatedly, Jin Xu's expression became more and more irritable. And it wasn't until the other side of the door that there was a creaking sound when the door opened, and his expression finally returned to his apparent calm, only his hands clenched the note, revealing a trace of nervousness.
"Have you ever seen your sister-in-law?"
When he appeared at the door, it was his son Yue Feng, and his expression was a little depressed at the moment: "I saw it, but some people are staring at it, and some things are not easy to ask!"
Jin Xu frowned, but this was not his surprise. "Then what did your sister-in-law say else? Yunhui has been very smart since she was a child, and her wit and power are not under me, so there should be some hints. β
"Yun Gu once complained to me, saying that in the past few months, Yue Yunwen has spent a lot less time in her room! β
Yue Feng's face was full of bitterness, and he was also an extremely clever person. Although his little aunt, who was married to Yue Yunwen as a concubine, said vaguely, it was very clear to his ears.
"Yes? Sure enough, sure enough!"
Jin Xu lost his mind for a while, and then sat down on the chair as if he was dozens of years old. "That little poison really won't let us go! I'm afraid it's really going to be poisoned this timeβ"
"Father, things shouldn't be so bad!" Yue Feng shook his head slightly: "I see that kid hasn't made any trouble with us in the past six months. And there is nothing unusual about my uncle. At most, it's just that the little aunt has fallen out of favor a little. Uncle He has newly married a few concubines, and it is normal for him to ignore his aunt for the time being. β
"Normal? What kind of normality is this?" Jin Xu smiled silently, his eyes full of desolation. "You don't understand Yue Yunwen's surname! Although this person has a hot surname, he is also very affectionate. If he is really a lustful person, he will not have so many years of only one wife and one concubine. He really has a little affection for you Aunt Yun. I think those new concubines are just pretexts. The reason why I don't go to your sister-in-law's place is because I feel guilty about your aunt!"
"But two generations of our fathers and ancestors have been born and died for their father-in-law!"
Yue Feng's complexion also became extremely pale. It's just that in his eyes, he still doesn't believe it. "Father, you have a wide range of contacts among those martial artists and guest masters in the clan, and you are known for your prestige! They can't deal with us for no reason, without evidence!"
"Prestige?born and dead?" The corners of Jin Xu's lips flashed with a hint of self-deprecation. "The ancestors of that little poison, there are several times more people who died for the Yue family than our family. But in these years, the clan has only been maintained on the surface at most. As for prestige, Yue Yunde also had some good friends and subordinates in the clan before. But when the small poison was seriously injured the year before last, less than half of the people who came forward to warn us and others. As for the evidence, it's even more ridiculous! There have been fewer people in the clan who have died silently and inexplicably in recent years?"
When he said this, Jin Xu's fierce tone suddenly turned helpless. "If it weren't for that, the clan wouldn't have been so closely monitoring our father and son! Half a year ago, the two brothers demoted me from my position as a deacon. The father thought it was just to appease the boy. Now it seems that I want to be bad. In fact, if you think about it, you know that what happened four months ago, he could have solved it in a more gentle way. But in the end, that little poison still chose to forcibly break into the city lord's mansion and kill the Hong's uncle and nephew on the spot!
His body was as if he had been struck by lightning, and Yue Feng suddenly had no words, but his eyes were blank, and he also learned from his father to sit on the chair. And those eyes were also full of despair.
"In fact, whether it is true or not, we can't be sure whether we are fathers now! But now we can't afford to gamble, and we can't afford to be lucky!"
Jin Xu stood up again, and the hand holding the note was even more green at this time. "The thing I regret the most now is that I didn't strangle that kid once a year ago! The saying that if you don't die if you fight a tiger, you will leave a disaster, is really a golden saying! But now, the most important thing is the life of you and my father and son. I have served this Yue family for decades, and I really don't want to rebel against each other. But at this time, I can't care about so much-"
Yue Feng's eyebrows furrowed, and his face finally regained a hint of brilliance. And his gaze also fell on Jin Xu's left hand. If it was really as his father said, then this note, which had gone through countless twists and turns, finally fell into their hands, or their only hope - when they returned from Yue Yunjie's mansion, the boiling blood in Yue Yu's body still hadn't completely cooled down. The hour-long fierce battle was more enjoyable than it had been in months.
It's a pity that the wind spirit power in his body is still limited, and when he uses the ghost step, he can't exceed half an hour. After all, this battle could only be stopped abruptly halfway, which made him feel extremely regretful. It's like the delicious taste that has been coveted for several years, and just half of it has been eaten by someone, and it is like being forcibly snatched away.
However, the purpose of this battle, he can be regarded as achieved. After this hour, although the ghost step and the ghost wind blade have not been completely perfected, they are undoubtedly different from before yesterday. And if the lessons and experiences learned from them can be fully comprehended and digested in a few days, they can be brought to a higher level.
And the only thing that made him a little unhappy was about the fact that Xian Yuping and Honghao's master and apprentice were about to visit Yuejia City in a month and a half. In addition to feeling some worry in his heart and feeling a lot of pressure, Yue Yu felt a little powerless and resentful.
-- In the previous life, before death, the feeling that life was not lost in one's own hands. He'd already understood it once. And when he was waiting for death, that complicated taste, he would never want to experience it again!
Just in front of the gate of his courtyard, Yue Yu stopped, and then looked at the stars shining in the night sky. Speaking of which, it's time for him to go out of town again.
Although the demonic power crystals used to activate the Five Elements Spirit Gathering Array have not been collected yet, it is not completely without a solution now-
