Chapter 401:-for-tat
The Imperial Forest Army didn't know what was going on, but after the Du family's trouble, they were much more honest and didn't dare to stop it. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
So they could only watch as the workers threw off their arms and went about their jobs there.
The place where the house was built was almost a mile away from the residence of the British king, and the first thing to build was a few rows of bungalows.
This also proves that the British king is really angry, and he will build it first without planning, and he will not even consider the wall, you must know that for him, it is safest to hide in the wall.
Of course, his station has a large array, which is actually much more reliable than the wall, but it is a little less private.
It is very fast to get a house, especially a bungalow, just dig a foundation, that is, it is a little troublesome when you put up the beams.
In three days, several rows of bungalows were built, but it began to rain again.
Workers had to stop work and hide under makeshift canopies.
These craftsmen in Li Shu are actually very pitiful, during the construction, they don't even have a shed, they live in the field, and when the wind blows, they will lay two branches and hang two clothes to block the wind.
Just half an hour after it rained, the people of Qu Adu's family arrived, and two cultivators led the team, one was middle-level, the other was low-level, and the middle-level cultivator was called Du Sanchao, and now he was the fifth elder of the Du family, responsible for the affairs of the ancestral hall, and had a high prestige in the Du family.
The patriarch of the Du family didn't come, and the five elders said that the patriarch had gone to sea and was not in Qu'a, so he came this time.
This is actually nonsense, the Du family is now the highest, that is, the patriarch Du Sancai, is the only high-level cultivator in the clan, this time the Du family came to the capital, although it is to discuss the matter of the children walking in Hongchen, but it is somewhat risky.
Especially now, the Du family is leaning towards the British king, which adds a little uncertainty.
Therefore, the Du family is the fifth elder.
As soon as Du Sanchao arrived at Shuntian Mansion, he was not in a hurry to enter the city, but came to Xuantian Temple to discuss with his family what kind of regulations should this matter be.
As a result, the children of the Du family unanimously said that there is no need to go into the Shuntian Mansion to talk, aren't they taboo for our children to walk in Hongchen? Then let the people from the Tianji Hall come here to talk.
The Hidden Family really has this kind of qualification, bargaining with the Heavenly Machine Palace-if you want me to come forward to explain, it doesn't mean that I have to come to the door.
When Du Sanchao heard it, he felt that this suggestion was very good, if he explained it in the Heavenly Machine Palace, even if there was no danger, but on other people's territory, the other party bared his teeth and glared, and he couldn't turn his face.
I am not afraid here, there are my own children, and Du Jingjing who has entered the Xuannu Palace, if it is really not enough, there are also people from Xuantianguan, and it is convenient to greet them.
So the Du family sent a priest to go to the Tianji Hall to post a post, and agreed with the other party to negotiate outside the Xuantian Temple.
As a result, in the evening, the children of the Du family came back with a junior cultivator.
This beginner cultivator is not young, but his temper is very hot, and when he sees the Du family, he doesn't have a good face.
After he saw Du Sanchao, he said very bluntly, "Tianji Hall came to your Du family to explain to you, not to explain to your Du family, I am now informing you on behalf of Tianji Hall that the Du family wants to explain the matter, take the initiative to go to Tianji Palace, and explain things clearly." ”
In the Du family, only the patriarch has a steady grip on him, and when other people see him, even if they are also middle-level cultivators, they must respect him for three points -- those who are in charge of clan affairs are all highly respected people in the clan.
Seeing that this cultivator was so ignorant, the children of the Du family immediately became angry, but the family had many rules, and they didn't dare to interject casually, only one of the Du family's cultivators snorted coldly, "If you can't speak, be careful that I treat you for the crime of disrespecting your elders!"
However, the transformation of the Tianji Hall is really fearless, "My Tianji Hall has its own respect, and it is not your turn to be the leader of the Du family, the Du family enters the world to kill people, and my Tianji Hall is in charge!"
Before the Du family's chemical cultivation could speak, Du Sanchao waved his hand and stopped him.
The five elders glanced at each other up and down, and asked expressionlessly, "Do you mean these words, or do you mean the meaning of the Heavenly Machine Palace?"
This cultivator was stunned for a moment before he replied with a cold snort, "It's what I mean, and it's also the meaning of the Heavenly Machine Palace." ”
"Then you go back," Du Sanchao waved his hand and lowered his eyelids, "Tell you the hall master, I won't go to the Tianji Palace, the Du family was invited by the Taoist friends of the Xuannu Palace this time, and it was a last resort to hurt people on the way to escort them, and besides, I said ...... How many people did my Du family hurt, it's also a thing?"
This sounds very rushed, but it is true, for ordinary Li Shu, the hidden family and the royal family are not bound by the rules, and the fair world only exists in fairy tales.
The Beginner Transformation Cultivator was stunned again, and then sneered, "It's impossible for the people of the Heavenly Machine Hall to come here, if you don't go, I'm afraid you won't have a chance to explain." ”
"You're wrong," the fifth elder waved his hand lightly again, his eyes were half-open and half-closed, and he spoke weakly, "Whether you come to explain or not, it's my Du family's business, whether you listen to the explanation or not, it's your business, if the Tianji Palace doesn't come to listen, I'll go back to Qu'...... Drop-off!"
The Beginner Transformation Cultivator only heard this, and shouted, "How dare you despise my Heavenly Machine Hall so much?"
As soon as the fifth elder stretched out his hand, he picked up a cup of tea, took a sip, and spoke slowly, "If you don't want to leave, then stay, and I will notify the Heavenly Machine Hall to receive someone." ”
"Hehe," the Junior Transformation Cultivator laughed, turned around and walked out, "I hope you dare to be so contemptuous when you see my Heavenly Machine Hall Master." ”
As soon as this person left, the children of the Du family shouted, and some people even said, let's leave now, I don't believe that he Tianji Hall dared to punish the Du family.
Du Sanchao didn't pay attention to them, but looked at Du Jingjing, "Jingjing, what do you think?"
"Hmph, it's just pretending," Deacon Du snorted disdainfully, and replied very casually, "If you can take advantage of it, you can take advantage of it, and if you can't do it, you can come to us, and the Tianji Hall is acting now, and it is becoming more and more ungenerous." ”
"It's still Jingjing's right," the other cultivator nodded, "The Heavenly Machine Hall just wants to take the lead and test it, so it will give up, but it's really not atmospheric enough." ”
"It doesn't matter if it's atmospheric or not, but our Du family, we must not lose our sharpness," the fifth elder glanced around, and said in a deep voice, "Only when our Du family's sharpness is there, can we not be underestimated...... Did you hear that?"
When he said the last four words, he exuded a fierce momentum, although it was not very strong, but it was incomparably sharp.
Li Yongsheng nodded secretly, these five elders acted with a combination of rigidity and softness, without losing their own momentum, and at the same time, they could seize the opportunity to inspire their clansmen.
Seeing this, Zhang Muzi muttered softly, "The Tianji Palace is here for you, and it is a little down to show people, you must test it in advance, in this extraordinary period, they must be weak." ”
Her words made the children of the Du family look at each other, and they have the heart to refute it, but this is the same camp.
Du Jingjing chuckled, "Zhang Daoyou, you have a little too much experience in Hongchen, and it is good to be even, but my Du family must be biased towards the clansmen, and it is impossible to be equal." ”
"That's what I said," Zhang Muzi smiled and glanced at Li Yongsheng again, "This guy is right, the ass determines the head, the key depends on which side you sit on." ”
Deacon Du gave her a roll of her eyes and stopped talking.
The fifth elder smiled and nodded, "Jingjing is really a genius of the Du family, but it's a pity that she has entered the Dao Palace, if they are all like you, we old men will have a lot of peace of mind." ”
Du Jingjing rolled her eyes again and muttered in a low voice, "Actually, I didn't want to enter ......the Dao Palace at that time."
The house was built for another three days, and the Tianji Hall finally came, accompanied by people from the Korean Security Bureau and the Military Intelligence Department.
The leader was a high-level cultivator surnamed Zhang, and after caring about why Du Sancai didn't come, he chatted with the five elders.
Of course, small talk will not be real small talk, many things are set lightly in the conversation, and it is not vague and vague, but very straightforward to ensure a clear signal.
The two sides had a very good chat, and the people of the DPRK Security Bureau and the Military Intelligence Department did not even have a chance to interject -- not that they could not find a space to interject, but that once they interjected, they would definitely play black face, which would affect the atmosphere.
Unconsciously, it was noon to chat, Du Sanchao invited guests to drink, Du Jingjing took out a small pot of wine, which was probably half a catty, "The secret brew of the Xuannu Palace, this is still the reward for completing the task the year before last, there is not much wine, Zhang Zhenren Haihan." ”
"The wine brewed in the Spirit Valley of the Xuannu Palace has not been drunk for a long time," Zhang Zhenren laughed, "Deacon Du, this glass of wine is delicious, and within a year, I will not be able to drink any other wine." ”
Du Jingjing laughed, her peach blossom eyes bent into crescent moons, "Zhang Zhenren, this is hoping that my Du family will not go north within a year?"
"You think too much, it's just that the secret brew of the Xuannu Palace is too delicious," Zhang Zhenren replied with a smile, "As for your Du family going north, I hope you will never go north, you can kill people too much, and the blood is like a river." ”
"People don't mess with me, I don't mess with people," the fifth elder also laughed dryly, "My Du family has never taken the initiative to cause trouble, and this escort mission is also for the sake of Jingjing and the Ninth Princess, I didn't expect the Wei family to come to find death." ”
These words are very clear, and the Du family will not be involved in the competition for gods and horses.
It is said that the Du family and Tianji Hall are negotiating, and outsiders are not allowed to observe, but Zhang Muzi, Zhao Xinxin and Li Yongsheng are all listening on the side, so they just don't interject.
The Heavenly Machine Hall couldn't get rid of the three people - those two were from the four major palaces, although Li Yongsheng was not, but he killed two cultivators, and his combat effectiveness could not be underestimated, and he was also an important witness to the battle.
However, Li Yongsheng's mind didn't seem to be listening, Du Jingjing came to pour him wine, saw him staring blankly into the distance, and couldn't help but snort lightly, "I said do you want to drink? If you don't drink, I won't pour it for you, so you don't have to waste it." ”
"This kid has been thinking about me all along," the figure flashed in the room, and suddenly a little old man appeared, who twitched his nose and said with a grin, "What a drink." (To be continued.) )
