Chapter 169: Tradeoffs
When I heard that I knew the Thirteen Needles of the Ghost Gate, Old Man Ke's eyes lit up and asked me if I really knew him?
I nodded, and Old Man Ke followed me and said, "Qi Xiaotian's current physical condition can last for at most half a month. If he had applied a one day earlier, he would have lived for a longer period of time."
I nodded repeatedly and said to Old Man Ke, "Then I'll contact that person."
As I said that, I walked out of Old Man Ke's room. I found that the group of Zong family and the people who were originally at the door gathered on the first floor.
When the butler saw me coming out, he asked at me nervously, "Young Master, how is the situation of the master?"
"Don't worry, I will definitely wake him up. What are these people doing here?" I glanced at the crowd here with my eyes and asked the butler.
The housekeeper obviously had a good relationship with Qi Xiaotian, and said with a bad look on his face, "On the surface, I'm here to protect the head of the family. In fact, they all want to control the Qi family as soon as possible after the master died."
"Who is the leader of the people below?" I asked to the butler.
The butler shook his head and said, "They all have their own small abacuses, which seem to be in the same group, but if the master is really dead, they may turn against each other immediately."
I nodded slightly and continued to ask the butler, did there be anything strange happen to Qi Xiaotian before he fell into a coma?
The butler shook his head and said, it was normal to not have everything. The only abnormality is that Qi Xiaotian never saw anyone in those few days, except for eating, he always locked up a person in the room.
It seems that this is the problem. I didn't stay for too long, so I used the corpse card left by Lei Laohu to contact him.
Although it is said that this contact method can only be used in emergency situations.
However, I think it's an emergency now. After arriving in the room, I transferred the Yin Qi into the corpse card.
But I found that the color of my yin energy had changed qualitatively. The yin energy I had before was a black breath, but now the color I emit had turned into a faint silver-gray color.
This silver-gray color looks very beautiful and makes people feel very comfortable.
At this moment, the black shadow in front of the corpse card moved, raised his head and said to me, "What's wrong with Qi Xiao?"
I told Lei Laohu about the matter here. After Lei Laohu heard this, he told me to let Song Zhaolin come over to me immediately.
I asked Lei Laohu what was going on with Taoist Academy? Lei Laohu told me that the Taoist Academy had also undergone a huge change. Zhai Junjiao and Zu Hong were gone. The fake guy said that the two of them had gone on a secret mission. Before they left, they turned the entire Taoist Academy into the world of the fake guy. The fake guy also had Zhai Junjiao's souvenir in his hand, asking him to temporarily manage the affairs of the Taoist Academy. But Lei Laohu obviously felt that there was something tricky about it.
I asked Lei Laohu to be careful. If there is really a problem with the Taoist Academy, come here with Song Zhaolin. After all, I also need help. I will stabilize my position first and investigate the affairs of the Taoist Academy.
Lei Laohu said no, and for the time being he pretended to be fighting with that fake guy.
He asked me to be careful, and he felt like a storm was coming and the wind was filling the building. He would let Song Zhaolin come as fast as possible, and gave me Song Zhaolin's contact information. After saying that, the black shadow disappeared.
Lei Laohu once said that Song Zhaolin can arrive in at most 2 or 3 days. Moreover, Song Zhaolin can already use the Thirteen Needles of the Ghost Gate skillfully.
At this moment, there were loud noises outside the door. I opened the door of the room and saw Old Man Ke being surrounded, and a group of people were talking to Old Man Ke.
At this time, Wan Kun was standing at the door with great competencies and responsibilities. I asked Wan Kun what was going on.
Wan Kun said to me, "Hey, isn't it just looking for that old man to say bad things to you? I feel that old man can't stop that. Hehe, your young master is really awesome."
I smiled awkwardly and said to Wan Kun, "To be honest, I don't know anything about the Qi family's management, and I haven't even fully understood the personnel system here."
Wan Kun said to me, "It's very simple, kill the chicken to warn the monkey. Didn't Qi Shao and Qi Zhen the most jump, kill one. They brighten their muscles, and then I saw that Qi Xian, who was separated from the word Tian, was a smart man. Although he was pulled to them, he would not offend him. As far as I know, the word Tian character should have strong strength. Such people can win over and promise benefits. Everything in this world cannot escape the word "interest."
Wan Kun's words made me enlightened and made me look at him as a fat man with admiration. In just a short period of time, I saw things so thoroughly.
He was right. Now I have to brighten my muscles and calm those who are swaying like Qi Xian, thinking about which team to stand...
I asked Wan Kun to follow me, and I walked up. Just as Wan Kun said, Qi Zhen and Qi Shao jumped the most and said something to Old Man Ke.
"What's wrong? Are there any rules now? Can cats and dogs bark at grandpa's door?" I frowned and squeezed into the crowd.
"Hmph, boy. Don't be so quick about the words. Now the head of the family is in a coma, and life and death are uncertain. You are an unknown guy, we are worried about putting you here." Qi Shao pointed at me and said.
"You are saying it once, who is unknown? My name is Qi Xiao, and I am the young master appointed by the head of the family today. I just thought that you are my uncle after all, but I have been repeatedly bewitching me because I am unknown. What is your intention? Now that my grandfather is not awake, the whole family of Qi is already in panic. What you think is not to unify Qi's family and stop the spread of rumors, but to act as a spreader of rumors."
"If I'm soft-hearted, then the Qi family will forget that there is another young master. The head of the family is now in a coma. Mr. Ke, who should come out to take charge of Qi family affairs?" I widened my eyes, stood with my hands behind my back, and asked to Old Man Ke.
Old Man Ke glanced at me and said to me, "Since Qi Xiaotian has long appointed you as the young head of the family, it is naturally you."
"Okay!" My eyes were slightly cold and I said to Qi Zhan, "Wan Kun, kidnapped Qi Shao. I want him to know what the Qi family's law is, and everyone is there." I said to Wan Kun.
After hearing my words, Wan Kun smiled slightly and said to me, "Young Master, I'm sure you'll be ordered!"
As he said that, Wan Kun moved his body like a hill and walked towards Qi Shao.
"What do you want to do?" Qi Shao pointed at me with a ugly expression and said.
"Uncle, I gave you a face. Don't want it! I wanted to solve it privately with you, but you had to slap me in the face." I turned my head and said to the butler, "But, the head of the family will contradict you and slander the head of the Zong family. What crime should I be punished?"
The housekeeper glanced at me and said to me, "Depending on the importance, family meetings need to be held to vote. But the head of the Zong family has one vote to make decisions."
I nodded slightly, "Okay, then everyone is here. Let's hold this meeting."
"You don't have this qualification!" Qi Shao pointed at me and said.
Qi Zhen also said at this time, "You are right. The head of the family is still Qi Xiaotian and Mr. Qi. Are you so impatient and replaced? Let me tell you that if you want to use tough things, you will force us to do something extraordinary."
I sneered and said to Qi Zhen, "This is a good blame! OK, then what do you think you want to do?"
Looking at their appearance, I was forcing them. They turned against each other. Although I have the title of head of the Qi family in the Qi family and the help of Old Man Ke, I don’t really have my own power, I just have a rootless duckweed. Whether it is Qi Zhen or Qi Shao, they have been in the Qi family for many years and have their own subordinates.
The reason why they haven't taken action now is that they want a legitimate statement.
If they are forced to make them desperate, even if the Ke family is very powerful, it cannot quench their near thirst... I, the young leader of the Qi family who has no power, have no deterrence.
At that time, we will be in an embarrassing situation. There is no way, I can only weigh the pros and cons now and mediate among these people! My attitude cannot be too tough or too weak. Only I can measure and experience it slowly!
After hearing my words, Qi Zhen said proudly, "Since the old man has not woken up yet, let's wait for the old man to wake up. As for this period, we can also consider your identity carefully. After all, the head of the Qi family must be innocent and upright. If a fake person is promoted to the position of the Qi family, wouldn't it make people laugh out loud?"
