In the Wu family in southern Yunnan, a funeral was held in early spring.
Wu Tiannan, the most capable and most famous of the older generation, passed away at the age of seventy-nine.
Wu Tiannan is in the Wu family. Although he is not the head of the family, according to his seniority, he is the uncle of the current head of the family and the younger brother of the previous head of the family.
At that time, the position of head of the family was hanging between the two brothers, and Lichang was still Lixian. There was a lot of quarrel in the ancestral hall of the Wu family's ancestors.
Wu Tiannan cut off his own finger in the hall, and on the grounds that his body, hair and skin were his parents' fault, he dubbed himself an unfilial hat, and gave up the position of head of the family to his elder brother.
Later, his elder brother died in battle while hunting, and Wu Kaitai, the patriarch of this generation, was also supported by Wu Tiannan.
So the old hunter is in the Wu family. Although he is not the head of the family and doesn't care much about things, he keeps his promises.
Now that people are dying like a lamp going out, the contemporary patriarch Wu Kaitai is crying while holding the coffin, that is real crying.
But when he got home and closed the door, Wu Kaitai came to his senses and immediately sent someone to find his youngest son, Wu Guisi.
When the old guy dies, the tight band on his head is gone, and there is no resistance to including the illegitimate child into the family tree.
The candidates who will play for the Wu family at the peer alliance ceremony can also be changed.
The youngest son, Wu Guisi, has seven inches of stamina, and instead of being the inheritance hunter of the Wu family, he went to be a guardian of the Tao. It was originally the result of Wu Tiannan's disagreement, Wu Kaitai's insistence, and finally both parties took a step back.
Things are turning around now, but hurry up.
Wu Guisi's mother-in-law needs to be given a title first.
This woman was originally the oiran of the brothel, but was redeemed by Wu Kaitai and raised in the county town. It has been almost thirty years, and now she is seriously ill.
Before she closed her eyes, giving her the status of a concubine would not be in vain for the 30 years of kindness this idiot had shown her.
Given this woman's title, Wu Guisi is naturally his son.
Although it is still a concubine, it is much better than an illegitimate child, and at least has the qualifications to be included in the family tree.
Wu Guisi is much stronger than his brothers.
Before asking him to set up another family, it was because Wu Tiannan really had no choice but to give him a way out.
Now the situation has changed, with this kid's ability, as long as he is famous at the peer alliance ceremony, and he slowly supports him, the position of Patriarch of the Wu family ten years later is within easy reach.
Boy, you're in luck.
At noon that day, Wu Kaitai asked his servant to boil a pot of wine, made some dishes, and sent someone to call Wu Guisi home for dinner.
The Patriarch of the Wu family sat at the dining table, waiting for his son to come over, waiting and waiting, his nose soured, and he almost shed tears.
For more than 20 years, this youngest son has been raised outside since he was a child, and he dare not bring him home.
A young man of twenty-six years old, counting it, this is his first time entering Wu's house.
The nose was sour and the eye sockets were red, but Wu Kaitai's heart was warm.
Hearing the movement in the front hall, Wu Kaitai took a quick breath, straightened his chest, collected his thoughts, and restored the majesty that a father should have on his face.
Looking up, there was only one person who came in from the front hall, and it was the butler he had sent out to call for someone before.
Wu Kaitai was a little unhappy in his heart, the little bastard is so arrogant, do I still need to invite him in person
After thinking about it, that's all, I owe this kid all these years.
So instead of getting angry, he asked in a deep voice, "Where's the person?"
"Go home, Master, the young master is not at home." The housekeeper replied respectfully.
"Did you ask? Where did you go?"
"I asked, and they said they were going to pick up the business."
"This brat." Wu Kaitai patted the dining table, "How many times have I told him that if you need money, don't go outside to pick up business. He is a seven-inch hunter, and he goes to pick up five-inch business, is it reasonable? "
"Patriarch, don't be angry, something is not right." The butler said in a deep voice.
"What's wrong?"
"Young master's deal has been accepted for almost a month, and he hasn't come back yet."
"Where is the deal?"
"Nepal, Himalayas."
"Ah?!" Hearing the news, Wu Kaitai involuntarily exclaimed, and felt his eyes darken.
This morning, the Cao family, one of the six families, collected and sorted out the hunting results of the entire Liemen, and sent them to each family in the Liemen in the form of a briefing.
As the head of the Wu family, Wu Kaitai will naturally read this briefing.
In the briefing, Wu Kaitai was particularly impressed by the white-headed Supreme in the Himalayas.
It's not that the white-headed supreme is so important to Wu Kaitai. In fact, a small family like the Wu family in southern Yunnan can't deal with prey of this level, so they don't have any idea, just know how powerful it is.
Wu Kaitai could remember it so clearly because he saw a familiar name on the hunting team list.
Weekly time.
This is my uncle Wu Tiannan's apprentice, according to his seniority, he is his junior.
In the morning, Wu Kaitai still sighed with emotion, this kid is so lucky that he was able to hunt with the heads of the four families of the Lin family, the Su family, the Zhang family, and the Cao family.
Even he, the Patriarch of the Wu family, is jealous of this good fortune.
So he paid special attention to this passage in the briefing, read it carefully, and still remember it clearly.
Fortunately, although the prey was very strong during this hunt, the hunting team did not suffer any losses.
It's just that three other members of the sect died, and their identities are unknown.
In less than two hours now, when I heard that my youngest son, Wu Guisi, had received a deal, even from the Himalayas, no one came back.
Wu Kaitai only felt that the five thunders were on the top, and he almost lost his breath.
His whole back collapsed, and he hunched up, as if he had aged ten years in an instant: "Prepare the car, I want to go to the Himalayas myself."
"Yes, Patriarch."
…
United States, New York State, Long Island.
Like a dead dog, Miao Chengyun was dragged out of the practice room by Yun Xiuer's ankle.
Although the whole person was already paralyzed, Miao Chengyun was still sane, cursing:
"Yun Xiu'er, you witch, what did you do in the old man's mind? He is beating his son, as if I killed his son. Hey, why are you dragging me back?"
"I see that you are full of anger, it seems that you can go back and suffer a few more times." Yun Xiu'er said lightly.
"Sister Xiu'er, I was wrong, I was really wrong." Miao Chengyun begged for mercy, "Please let me go, let me go back and lie down for a while."
"Based on your current level, you still want to fight for the nine-inch-nine threshold for my Yun family?" Yun Xiu'er said, "Go back and continue to be beaten."
After saying this, Yun Xiu'er raised one hand and threw Miao Chengyun back to the practice room.
After closing the door of the practice room, Yun Xiu'er walked to the desk in the outer room and looked the place up and down.
Here is Miao Guangqi's secret research base, buried more than 100 meters underground.
It was originally a military base, but it was abandoned by the US military later, and Miao Guangqi set it up.
At that time, this military base was a funding black hole of the U.S. Department of Defense, so when it was sold out, the U.S. Department of Defense treated it like a hot potato.
Miao Guangqi didn't spend any money, but just transferred a technology patent that he didn't think was so important, and painted a beautiful pie for the US military.
And this beautiful big cake convinced the group of gentlemen in Congress to approve a large amount of military expenditure.
So this military base, as a reward from the military, fell into Miao Guangqi's pocket.
Of course, this kind of transaction is not visible, so the existence of this base has been erased from the US military files.
In the eyes of ordinary people right now, this place is just some old concrete walls and some dark and damp confined spaces.
But Yun Xiu'er is not an ordinary person. When she came here for the first time, she felt that it was unusual.
Here, there is a very dangerous aura, and there is more than one kind.
What exactly these things are, Yun Xiu'er can't say.
However, since this is my husband's territory, I think these dangers have been controlled by him.
Out of trust in Miao Guangqi, Yun Xiuer suppressed the discomfort in her heart and sat down at the edge of this desk.
Sitting on the office chair, he could only hear the screams in the practice room, wave after wave.
It was miserable at first, but then it gradually faded away.
After a while, the door was opened, and Mr. Miao Guangqi came out.
This old man over half a century old, after tidying up Miao Chengyun solidly, he didn't break any sweat and was calm and relaxed.
It was agreed before that when Miao Guang started to take care of Miao Chengyun, Yun Xiu'er would play tricks in his mind.
In fact, Yun Xiu'er knew that it was unnecessary and impossible to actually implement it.
Yun Xiu'er's method after her spiritual enlightenment was successful was ineffective against Miao Guangqi.
This is because Miao Guangqi is not only a Miao family who takes the path of borrowing things, he also cultivates strength and refines gods.
In fact, since ancient times, there have been many ways of cultivation, but in general, they cannot escape the three avenues of refining gods, cultivating power, and borrowing things.
If one of the three avenues can be passed through, it is already very remarkable.
And it's really unheard of for a person like Mr. to be able to gallop freely on the three avenues and almost reach the end of the avenue.
Thirty years ago, when her husband lost to Lin Leshan, Yun Xiuer thought it was normal.
Because Lin Leshan only walked one way, and my husband had to walk three ways, so when the two were young, it was naturally Lin Leshan who walked faster.
But with the accumulation of time, Lin Leshan's road has come to an end, and the husband is using three prongs. At this age, Lin Leshan is far from being the opponent of the husband.
It's a pity that back then, the match between Mr. Lin Leshan and Lin Leshan was not a martial arts competition, but a duel.
The meaning of a duel is to decide whether to live or die in this life, or to decide whether to win or lose in this life.
After seeing the outcome of the first battle, there is no way to win it back in this life.
But even though he lost, Yun Xiuer admired Mr. Ke's all-powerful ability, and at the same time felt that it should be passed on.
So Miao Chengyun used the guardians of the Yun family as a springboard to gain fame at the peer alliance ceremony, and then established another Miao family in the United States to spread its branches and leaves. Yun Xiu'er supported it.
"Sir, the way you express your father's love is really unique." Yun Xiu'er stood up to give up her seat to Miao Guangqi, blinked, and asked, "Has he been beaten to death by you?"
"That's not enough." Miao Guangqi smiled, "The little bastard is not good at anything else, but he has one advantage, which is quite resistant to beating. Now that he has passed out, let him sleep for a while."
After saying these words, Miao Guangqi sat on the desk and began to deal with official duties.
Yun Xiu'er is also used to this, in her impression, the husband never has a lot of free time, he seems to be busy all the time.
Before teaching himself and Miao Chengyun, he always took time out of his busy schedule, and the teaching time was not long each time, and it was very fragmented.
Only that little girl, Su Nianqiu, could follow behind him all day to ask questions, and Su Nianqiu's privilege was also one of the reasons why Yun Xiuer disliked her.
"Xiu'er, speaking of it, you may become the leader of the hunting gate in this peer alliance ceremony. You have to pay attention to the matter of the hunting gate." Miao Guangqi pointed to the screen on his desk, "Look at the , This is the hunting summary of the major families of the hunting gate that the Cao family sends out at the end of each year."
"Apart from the Outer Xing'an Mountains, the Altai Mountains, and the three transactions in the Himalayas, are there any other Liemen transactions this year that are eye-catching?" Yun Xiuer asked.
"Little girl, you're flattering." Miao Guangqi smiled, "That's right, these three deals were written by me, and they were indeed very dynamic, and the quality of the prey itself was also very high.
However, if you think that these are all the key points of this year's hunting, then you are too underestimating the heroes of the world.
You see, this donkey-headed beast in Shennongjia, Hubei, ranked among the top 100 things in "Kyushu Foreign Objects", and the International Biological Research Institute rated it an S, no worse than the hooked snake.
This is still an adult male, about two hundred years old, for this species, that's a great guy in his twenties or eighteen.
He Yongchang, the hunter of the He family, was killed alone.
Look at this section again, Indonesian Borneo, nine-day golden-winged horseshoe crab.
This thing is on the coast of the country, and it has been extinct because of the concerted efforts of our hunters and pirates before. It is also a famous and surnamed beast species in "Kyushu Strange Objects", big guy.
The size of this thing is growing with the years, almost unlimited.
Jin Wenlan, the hunter of the Jin family, slaughtered this one. Look at the size, is it about the same size as an aircraft carrier
If it is really encountered at sea, the aircraft carrier may not necessarily handle it.
Because this thing is amphibious and can dive, its actions underwater are completely silent, and sonar can't find it.
Once close to the body, its carapace is much harder than the steel plate of an aircraft carrier, and there are poisonous thorns on it, which will sink when hit.
This thing is rare on land now, and I haven't recorded it in the database of the International Society for Biological Research. If I really give it a grade, it won't be more than an S.
I don't think Jin Wenlan's ability is inferior to Nianqiu's, it may be even stronger in actual combat, you have to pay attention.
These are the two most eye-catching deals for single-player hunting, and even more for team hunting, so I won’t go into details one by one.
Anyway, this level of prey was hunted by our hunting gate last year, 16 of which were the most in the past 30 years. "
After saying this, Miao Guangqi turned his head and looked at Yun Xiu'er who was standing beside him: "Xiu'er, you are the person who was launched by the Yun family to fight for the leader of the hunting sect. Do you have any ideas?"
"Defeat Lin Shuo." Yun Xiu'er said succinctly, "The current position of the leader of the Lin family is already precarious. As long as I defeat him, I will naturally be the leader."
"It's not completely wrong for you to understand this way." Miao Guangqi said lightly, "However, if you have ascended to the position of leader only by virtue of your personal strength, then what is the difference between you and the current Lin Shuo
Even compared to the current Lin Shuo, you are at a greater disadvantage.
Because beside Lin Shuo, there are at least Cao Yusheng, Nianqiu, and Zhang Jin, the three heads of the six families.
He at least has allies, how about you
Without a foundation of his own, relying only on personal bravery, at most he is only a nominal leader.
If something really happens, who will listen to you? "
Yun Xiu'er was startled, then lowered her head and said, "Please give me your advice, sir."
"Actually, it doesn't matter to me who is the leader, you or Lin Shuo." Miao Guangqi smiled: "But you are my student after all, and I am naturally biased in terms of personal feelings.
Xiu'er, you have to understand that the Yun family's nine-inch threshold was the result of the Lin family's hard work.
Since everyone gave the Yun family a nine-inch threshold for the sake of the Lin family's face, then you can't want these people.
Because once you compete with Lin Shuo, these people will definitely side with Lin Shuo.
Therefore, it is impossible for this year's peer alliance ceremony to only change one leader.
If you want to change, replace all the six families of Liemen except the Yun family. "
"Will the Miao family also be replaced?" Yun Xiu'er asked.
"Change if you can." Miao Guangqi said, "Don't look at the fact that the Miao family has no relationship with the Lin family at present, the two families seem to have enmity.
Yes, there was a grudge, but it was a personal grudge from the previous generation.
Although Miao Tiangong is a wimp, he still understands the distinction between public and private.
So when it came time to stand in line, the Miao family would either side with Lin Shuo, or be neutral.
Don't expect to come to your side. "
"Then sir, who do you think will be on my side?" Yun Xiu'er asked.
Miao Guangqi said: "Most things in this world are just a business.
Buying and selling is to exchange what the other party thinks is important for what you think is important.
The request of the other party must be accurately identified.
Only when the appeal is identified accurately can you distinguish between the enemy and the enemy and make a deal.
The He family in Hubei, and the Jin family in Borneo, Indonesia, are all seven-inch families in Liemen. Among them, the He family used to have a nine-inch threshold.
The strength of these two families is no worse than the current Miao family, but they have been drifting away from the core of the hunting gate, usually silent.
Seeing that the peer alliance ceremony is about to be held, a donkey-headed beast and a nine-day golden-winged horseshoe crab, is this a coincidence
This level of prey is just to keep your own seven-inch threshold, do you believe it
In addition to them, the two families on the American side have conducted three team hunts this year, and they are also prey of this level. Do you know what they want to do
In fact, in the past hundred years, in terms of the hunting results of each family, the six families in China must have suffered, because the wild beasts on the land of China have long been exterminated.
On the contrary, there are several Qicun families from abroad. They migrated thousands of miles and suffered a lot, but their hunting results far surpassed the six families.
Born in sorrow, died in peace.
The selection of the Liemen Nine-inch Family and the hunting achievements over the past century are important factors.
So to change to the current Six Great Families, the only thing left is the last trembling, and that is to defeat the inheritance hunters that the Six Great Families fought at the Peer Alliance Ceremony.
And people like He Yongchang and Jin Wenlan who can defeat them are what you need to fight for now.
You are not familiar with them, so you don't need to try to win them over, just talk about business. "
"Student understands." Yun Xiu'er nodded.
"Now that you understand, what are you still doing here? Time is running out." Miao Guangqi glanced at Yun Xiu'er, "Is the joke of father beating your son so good?"
Yun Xiu'er smiled slightly, bowed her body, and gave a shallow salute: "Student resigns."
