Lao Youxin lost clues about the case of body theft, and there was no progress for several days. In desperation, I could only put this matter aside for the time being.
The tragedy of Wang Bo's family of three being wiped out, even if it has nothing to do with supernatural events, is still sensational enough. The streets are abuzz with everything. Strange cases have been happening frequently recently, and the entire city is panicking. There are also many in the media.
There are fewer voices accusing the police of failing to handle the case.
When I saw these reports, I shook my head. How could these people know the inside story? Some things were simply not something that the police could find out.
Because of this incident, it was obvious that Qiu Louyan and I could no longer continue our trip. So, after discussion, we decided to go back first. First of all, the police had already participated in the investigation, and there were no new clues until there were no more.
What's wrong with me? It's not a joke to have a fire in the backyard. If those old ladies demolish the house, where will I live?
One afternoon a few days later, I had nothing to do but stay at home and play games.
"Lin Kun, tell me, what have you been doing these days?" Tang Yan said coquettishly on the sofa.
"climb mountains."
"Climbing a mountain? Just climbing a mountain?"
"That's how peaceful I am. I don't pick up girls or fight. I spend every day playing games and watching movies in my room. If you don't believe me, smell this smell on me. I think I'm a homebody." I joked.
"Haha, it's weird to believe you!" Tang Yan stood up, picked up the teapot and poured two cups of tea, walked over to me, handed me a cup, and said: "You'd better stay at home and stay at home. As for me,
I’m in charge of your food and your accommodation. If you’re just wandering around, believe me or not..."
"What's wrong, do you still want to murder your husband?" I took the tea cup and took a sip.
"Huh, you've made me anxious. Do you think I dare to do it?"
"Oh, my dear Yan'er, what's wrong with you? Why are you so angry after we haven't seen you for two days? This doesn't look like you."
Tang Yan sighed and sat on the sofa, "I can't be as carefree as you. The company has encountered a lot of things recently, and the Yun family, you know... I'm very stressed now."
"Do you need me to do something for you?"
Tang Yan smiled and shook her head, but did not continue the topic.
When Tang Yan and I were chatting away, the phone on the table suddenly vibrated.
I picked it up and looked at it, and it was Lu Ping's number.
"What's wrong, sister-in-law?" I answered the phone and asked.
The slightly urgent voice on the other end of the phone quickly made me feel gloomy.
Lu Ping called with only one thing in mind: Xu Duobao was missing.
Half an hour later, I showed up at Xu Duobao's home. Lu Ping was sitting on the sofa crying silently, and Xu Yaxian was by her side, constantly comforting her.
Seeing me coming in, Lu Ping waved and asked me to come over.
"Lin Kun, you're here. Our old Xu doesn't know what he's doing. He hasn't been home all day and night." When Lu Ping saw me, she immediately felt like she had seen a savior and held my hand eagerly.
said.
I patted her hand and comforted her: "Sister-in-law, don't worry. He is such an old man and nothing can happen to him. Don't worry, he will be fine."
"What should I do if something happens to Lao Xu?" Lu Ping burst into tears.
After comforting Lu Ping with kind words, I tugged on Xu Yaxian’s sleeves and pulled
She pulled her to the balcony.
"What's going on? Why did your second uncle not come home for no reason? Has this happened before?" I asked.
Xu Yaxian held the balcony with both hands and said with a gloomy expression: "You also know that my second uncle is the only one who cares about the family, and he only cares about my second sister-in-law as a treasure in his mouth. How could he not go home for no reason? Except for a business trip.
, he always comes home on time."
"You haven't received any blackmail calls at home, right?"
"No," Lu Ping shook her head and said, "I haven't received any blackmail calls, but my second uncle's phone can't be reached either, and it keeps showing that he's not in the service area."
I took out my cell phone and tried to dial Xu Duobao's number.
"The user you dialed is currently outside the service area. Your call will be in the form of a voice message..." Sure enough, an electronic tone came from the receiver.
"Have you called the police?" I turned off my phone and put it back in my pocket.
"I've been to the police station. They said that if we have lost contact for less than 48 hours, we can't handle the disappearance case." Xu Yaxian turned around with a gloomy expression and faced me and said, "Lin Kun, you are an old friend of my second uncle. Wan
If anything happens, you must help."
"Look what you said, I will never refuse to help you with Lao Xu's matter." I patted my chest.
"What do you think could make my second uncle abandon his family and his wife without even answering the phone?" Xu Yaxian asked.
"It's not that serious. How could Lao Xu abandon his family and his wife? It's probably because he encountered something that he couldn't get away from..."
As I was talking, something suddenly appeared in my mind: the eight-treasure glass soul-soothing mirror.
If there was anything else that could make Xu Duobao bear to abandon his wife and disappear for more than a day and night for no reason, it must be this eight-treasure glass soul-soothing mirror.
"During the past few days when I was away from Xi'an, has your second uncle been anywhere?" I asked.
This glazed eight-treasure soul-suppressing mirror is a magic weapon, not an ordinary burial object. I have seen the power of this thing last time. Although I used a talisman to temporarily restrain its Yin Qi, I can't guarantee it.
, this soul-suppressing mirror also has abilities that I don’t know about.
"Where have you been?" Xu Yaxian asked doubtfully, "I don't know, why do you ask?"
"Hey, forget it, this girl doesn't believe what I said, and she doesn't know anything about the whole thing. It's better not to involve her." I hesitated for a while, but still didn't say anything about it.
"It's okay, it's okay. I'm just asking to see if there are any clues."
After staying at Xu Duobao's house for a while and comforting Lu Ping, when I returned home, it was already dark.
And at this time.
In Qiu Zhengliang's bedroom, Yundong visited him as a guest. Seeing Qiu Zhengliang lying on the bed, looking like he was seriously ill, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
The enmity between the Qiu family and the Yun family belongs to the generation of Qiu Zhengliang and his father. Seeing that Qiu Zhengliang is also dying, it is inevitable to feel lonely in his heart. The older generation is finally leaving, leaving young people like myself
People, I'm afraid that the situation in the future will become increasingly difficult to control.
After all, Qiu Zhengliang has a general understanding and is thoughtful. Even if there is hatred between the two families, it is unlikely that a big storm will break out. But as long as he leaves, the Qiu family will definitely be in chaos, because of the cooperation between the old Qiu family and Qiu Zhengqiang's group.
There will be no foundation. When the time comes, no matter who takes over the position of the head of the Qiu family, they will not be able to have the overall view of Qiu Zhengliang.
He has led the Yun family for several years
, Yun Dong knows the temperament of the young people of the Qiu family very well. If there is a big conflict between the two families in the future, they will not have too many scruples, and I am afraid that the Yun family will be in a lot of trouble.
Especially facing the current situation, he couldn't help but sigh.
Qiu Zhengliang has been staring at him since he came in and the housekeeper made tea for him. An old fox is an old fox after all. There was a glint in his eyes, but he pretended to cough twice and said in a weak voice: "Dong Er
Master, I never thought that after so many years, you would be the first to step through the door of the Qiu family."
Yun Dong smiled bitterly, cupped his hands towards Qiu Zhengliang, and said: "After all, it is the grudges of the previous generation. In today's society, there are no permanent friends, only eternal interests. The Qiu family and the Yun family have been fighting for so long, and for both families,
Neither is a good thing."
Qiu Zhengliang coughed three times and held his chest with one hand. The housekeeper quickly stepped forward, but he waved his hand to stop him. He glanced at Yun Dong and said lightly: "If the Qiu family is really like your Yun family,
Dou, there is no Yunjia brand name in Xi'an for a long time."
Qiu Zhengliang showed no mercy.
"Brother Liang is still so confident. I know that you are extremely intelligent. The Qiu family is today entirely due to your contribution. But, then again, the power and prestige of the Yun family are several times that of the Qiu family. How can you be so sure?
, The Yun family must not be the opponent of the Qiu family?" Yun Dong said unwillingly.
Qiu Zheng sighed softly in his heart, knowing that Yun Dong was telling the truth. After all, the Yun family did not completely force the Qiu family to death, but still left a lot of room. Otherwise, as he said, the Qiu family would have been gone long ago.
exists.
However, Qiu Zhengliang has experienced the overt and covert struggles of the seven major families for decades, and he has long been familiar with the game. He said unhurriedly: "Did Mr. Dong forget that it's not that you don't want to take action against the Qiu family, it's because Chu
The family is watching eagerly from behind."
"Hahaha, what Brother Liang means is that with the strength of our Yun family, we will still be afraid of the Chu family?"
"Isn't it?" Qiu Zhengliang said without mercy.
"You -" Yun Dong finally held back his words. He knew that Qiu Zhengliang was right. If the two families really clashed, even if the Yun family won, they would still kill a thousand enemies and suffer eight hundred losses.
, but it was the Chu family who stood on the mountain and watched the fight between tigers and tigers that ultimately benefited.
"Brother Liang's analysis of the current situation is indeed very original."
Yundong knew that this kind of opportunity was exactly what the Chu family, now ranked number one, was looking forward to.
Qiu Zhengliang smiled faintly and said: "It seems that Yundong, who is rumored to have a bad temper, is not as uncool as the legend says."
He knows the most critical point of the problem. Now the seven major families are in a delicate relationship. Even the Hu family and the Tang family, who are ranked last, will not even dare to take action if they really fight to the death.
Because there are several other families watching eagerly, and when given the chance, they will immediately pounce on the weakling like crazy crocodiles, tearing the weak one into pieces.
There are only so many resources in Xi'an, so over the years, the seven major families have cooperated more or less. Sometimes in order to resist the invasion of outside families, they will join forces with each other. Therefore, under the ups and downs, the seven major families have cooperated with each other more or less.
The interests of the family have long been closely related.
But now, Qiu Zeming's mysterious death in Northeast Yunnan has made all the seven major families smell a conspiracy. Moreover, no matter who the family is, they all seem to be the murderers behind the scenes.
